Chapter 1570: Chapter 903: The Japanese Weapons
“People from Jiangnan Province?”
“They’ve arrived!”
Everyone’s spirits lifted, and they all turned toward the door.
Qu Jin immediately said, “Please, let them in quickly.”
In no time, Li Qinghua and Tu Long walked in with big strides.
Faced with so many eyes on them, the two appeared composed, showing no sign of discomfort.
After all, both of them now held high positions in Yangshan and were long accustomed to such grand occasions.
Seeing so many people present, Li Qinghua and Tu Long exchanged a glance, then simultaneously focused their gaze on Qu Jin, who was seated above.
It didn’t take keen eyes to see that this must be the person in charge here.
“I suppose you must be Island Master Qu, Qu Jin?” Li Qinghua began, smiling as he asked.
Qu Jin immediately stood up, smiling as he said, “There’s no need for formalities, I am Qu Jin, the Island Lord of this Crystal Island, please have a seat, both of you.”
“Someone, serve the tea.”
He turned his head and instructed the young man beside him.
The young man glanced at Li Qinghua, who wasn’t much older than him, feeling a bit unimpressed, yet he still stepped forward to pour tea for Li Qinghua and Tu Long.
Li Qinghua paid no mind to the young man, but instead looked around at everyone, smiling as he said, “It seems we came at just the right time, did we happen to catch you all in the middle of a meeting?”
Tu Long also noticed how everyone here had a fierce aura, their bodies rich with superpower energy, and based on the Spiritual Ability Glasses’ detection, it could be seen that these people were not lacking in strength.
He thought these people must be inhabitants of this floating island.
If they were all from a single island, then the strength of this floating island could not be underestimated.
However, based on Li Qinghua’s implication, it seemed these people were not from this island, and many must be leader-level figures from other floating islands.
Hearing this, Qu Jin laughed, “Forgive us, little brother. We still don’t know who you are?”
“Oh, my name is Li Qinghua, and this is Tu Long beside me. We are from the Yangshan Shelter in Linjiang City.”
“So, Yangshan Shelter. I wonder if the ship outside blocking us is from your shelter?” Qu Jin quickly asked.
Li Qinghua nodded and smiled, “Indeed, the ships outside are our patrol ships. You just happened to enter the territory of our Yangshan, so our people stopped you for questioning. Please don’t misunderstand; we bear no hostility.”
Upon hearing this, Qu Jin immediately smiled, “We mean no harm either, truthfully speaking. We’re heading north, just passing through your esteemed territory, and certainly won’t cause you any trouble.”
Li Qinghua asked with a smile, “Oh, are you in such a hurry heading north for something urgent?”
Qu Jin smiled bitterly, “Brother, why ask knowingly? You must have investigated already. We are fleeing from Guangdong and Min Province.”
“To be frank, we were chased all the way here by the Japanese and hoped to head north to seek protection from a stronger force.”
Upon hearing this, Li Qinghua’s eyes flickered slightly, “Oh, how does Island Master Qu know that our Yangshan cannot provide refuge for you all?”
Qu Jin and the others immediately looked at Li Qinghua.
Qu Jin couldn’t help but ask, “Little brother, have you understood the kind of enemy we are up against? The Japanese are not mutant beasts. They have superpower technology, and they have all kinds of formidable rune weapons. It’s not as simple as you think.”
“To be honest, if you can provide shelter, we naturally wouldn’t want to flee.”
“But you have to think it through carefully. First and foremost, you should investigate the Japanese situation thoroughly before deciding.”
At this moment, Island Master Meng couldn’t help but speak, “Both of you, do you want to understand the situation with the Japanese? I can lead the way!”
“Damn, we’ve had enough of running away. Before the great flood, I swore, if one day we fight the Japanese devils again, I would be the first to charge into battle.”
“Damn, I never thought I’d become a deserter now. I’m not willing to accept this.”
Island Master Meng slapped the table, his eyes turning red.
It seemed he had a deep-seated hatred for the Japanese devils.
Tu Long couldn’t help but think more highly of this Island Master Meng and immediately said, “Alright, brother, having such determination is more important than anything. I plan to visit over there, and if you’re willing to lead the way, that would be perfect.”
Island Master Meng immediately stood up, laughing heartily, “Great! It’s settled then. Island Master Qu, my Tiger Crab Island isn’t leaving. Damn it, after running all the way, some of the brothers I started with are dead, and some were captured by the Japanese devils.”
“These past few months, every day I’ve had nightmares, where they ask me why I didn’t save them!”
“When I was in the army, my comrades came to my dreams questioning me, why did I flee?”
“Anyone can run, but as someone who has been a soldier, I can’t run! Especially since the enemy is the Japanese devils!”
His red eyes and excitement were evident, causing both Li Qinghua and Tu Long to turn their heads in his direction.
Hearing this, Qu Jin also fell silent, as did the other island masters and higher-ups.
Ultimately, Qu Jin spoke, sighing softly, “If there were a choice, who would truly want to run away?”
“How many of our people have those Japanese bastards killed, and how many Floating Islands and Floating Platforms have they seized? Even if there is the slightest chance, I don’t want to run; I want to fight them.”
“But, do we have a chance?”
“If we can’t crack their radiation weapons, we’re doomed to have no way to fight them.”
Li Qinghua heard this and keenly captured important information.
He immediately asked, “What radiation weapons?”
Island Master Qu looked at Li Qinghua and sighed, “These Japanese bastards have a special weapon that can emit powerful radiation bombs.”
“Once these radiation bombs explode, they release strong radiation waves that can activate the miscellaneous genes within superpower users.”
“If hit by a radiation bomb, the miscellaneous genes in the body are instantly activated. If they can’t be suppressed, the person hit will instantly mutate, with miscellaneous genes uncontrollably growing rapidly, eventually turning the superpower user into a mutant.”
“Mutant?”
Li Qinghua and Tu Long both turned pale simultaneously.
Of course, they knew what mutants were.
In the early days of the great flood, when superpower users first appeared, they needed to awaken to become superpower users.
If the awakening was successful, they would naturally master powerful superpower abilities.
But if the awakening failed, the spirit would collapse, causing the loss of self, with miscellaneous genes growing wildly, turning the awakened person into a monster driven by genetic instinct!
This kind of monster evolves with the random evolution of miscellaneous genes, eventually forming various special monsters.
For superpower users, once they have successfully awakened their powers, becoming superpower users, they don’t need to worry about the threat of miscellaneous genes for a short time.
Only when they break through to the Genetic Species level does the threat of miscellaneous genes reappear.
Once they break through again and condense the Genetic Species, the threat of miscellaneous genes will disappear again.
It is during the gene recombination stage that miscellaneous genes once again interfere with superpower users.
This stage is considered the last struggle phase of the miscellaneous genes.
Once a superpower user completes gene recombination, all miscellaneous genes can no longer affect the superpower user’s body.
One could say that miscellaneous genes influence the entire cultivation process of a superpower user.
Usually, they don’t show up, but every time they step forward to evolve to a higher level, these miscellaneous genes emerge.
But neither Li Qinghua nor Tu Long could have imagined that someone would exploit this to develop a weapon.
A weapon capable of inducing a burst of activity in miscellaneous genes!
For a moment, Li Qinghua and Tu Long couldn’t help but show a serious look.
Li Qinghua couldn’t help but ask, “Island Master Qu, can you explain in detail about this weapon?”
Tu Long also couldn’t help but ask, “What the hell is this weapon? It can even induce lively mutations of miscellaneous genes?”
Island Master Qu smiled bitterly and said, “This weapon, after bursting, releases radiation waves that permeate the air, constantly interfering with a superpower user’s body’s genes.”
“You know about gene mutation, right? This concept existed before the great flood, but somehow these Japanese bastards developed such a weapon.”
“They have no regard for humanity; when attacking our floating islands, they directly use these radiation bombs against us. Once a floating island is bombed, the superpower users on the island are affected by these bombs.”
“Then many superpower users will lose control and start killing each other, making it easy for these Japanese bastards to seize the floating island without lifting a finger.”
Li Qinghua and Tu Long couldn’t help but glance at each other, realizing that the Japanese were conducting their invasion this way.
Li Qinghua frowned and asked, “If that’s the case, do they only want the islands? No interest in population resources?”
“They want those too, but after these radiation bombs destroy the islands, the superpower users are nearly wiped out, leaving only a few ordinary people.”
“Then they can take away the ordinary people, wait for the mutants on the island to die off naturally, and then take control of the floating island—they consider their invasion complete.”
“But wouldn’t that still result in many deaths?” Tu Long frowned.
“Of course, but in the eyes of the Japanese, it doesn’t matter if Dragon Country people die. They don’t consider it cruel at all,” Island Master Qu spat with anger.
Tu Long, hearing this, couldn’t help but curse, “Damn it.”
Li Qinghua pondered for a moment, then asked, “Island Master Qu, besides these radiation bombs, do the Japanese have other methods?”
Island Master Qu smiled bitterly, “Just these radiation bombs can kill us all; why would they need other methods?”
“Of course, their other Rune Technology levels are also very high, having developed not only spaceships, submarines, large aircraft carriers, large superpower stone-powered devices, but also numerous Rune Weapons.”
Island Master Qu finished speaking and looked at Li Qinghua, asking, “Brother, let me ask just one question: if the Japanese were to use radiation bomb weapons, does Yangshan have a way to counter them?”
“If there is, all of us are willing to stay and fight these bastards with you!”
