Although the green array above the Leviathan’s head was glowing, the mental strength contained in the array was gradually decreasing. As long as the low temperature froze the Leviathan, the green array would dissipate sooner or later.

The gigantic Leviathan had turned into an enormous ice island that was drifting slowly toward the north. As it continued drifting north, the ice island became larger and larger. In addition to the low temperature at the North Pole and the occasional heavy snowfall, the gigantic Leviathan was completely frozen in the Northern Ice Ocean.

Besides, one could not tell from afar that there was a Leviathan frozen inside. Instead, one would think that it was a gigantic ice island.

Wei Huo had a reason for freezing it. Firstly, he wanted to freeze its body, which was constantly turning into mist, so that the poisonous fog could not spread. Secondly, he wanted to strengthen its soul so that he could recruit it when he needed to go to space one day.

Wei Huo lifted his head. His golden eyes penetrated the layers of clouds and the atmosphere. He saw a satellite in orbit around the Earth. Half of the satellite was pitch-black, and there was a gigantic Zerg nest on it. Countless Zerg broodmothers were stationed on the planet, and various Zerg units were resting on it.

That was the base camp of the Zergs. The gigantic Zerg broodmother above was the real core of the Zergs. What was even more terrifying was that the Zerg broodmother was evolving in preparation for the next invasion!

Why were the imposing aura and domains ineffective against demons? Why had the Zerg broodmother’s level increased so quickly? Why had they not been able to resist technological weapons?

This was all because they had undergone a targeted evolution to deal with the current situation on Earth. There were too many demons on Earth, and all kinds of Legendary demons appeared on the radar as high-energy points. That was why they had neglected the human race and the real overlord of the Earth, an overlord who was now returning!

“This time, I won’t make the same mistake!” The Zerg Empress had learned from the mistake of the previous invasion and started preparing for the next one!

Wei Huo retracted his gaze. He could not travel across the starry sky, nor could he destroy the satellite with one move from Earth.

There was only one way to exterminate the Zergs: by waiting for the humans to build spaceships that could travel in the galaxy. At the same time, they would also build weapons that could destroy terrifying races like the Zergs. Then, they would send an interstellar army to exterminate them. Otherwise, this invasion would never end.

However, there was also a benefit to this never-ending invasion. It made the various races on Earth form an alliance faster!

The Soaring Cloud descended from the sky. Ma Tengyun, who had become an Epic-ranked creature, led the way out of the Soaring Cloud City. The humans and demons looked at everyone in awe. The combat power of the Soaring Cloud City was too strong. It was not weak even when facing several Legendary-level demons. Therefore, no person or demon dared to underestimate them.

The two Epic-ranked humans who had flown with their aircraft started falling from the sky. However, one of them, a middle-aged Epic-ranked creature around 35 years old, flew into the distance. People only knew that the middle-aged Epic-ranked creature had previously lived in a human city called the Shadow City. He had liked to read and had always been silent. No one had known that he was an Epic-ranked creature at the time until an Epic-ranked demon had led a team to attack the human city. In the end, he had been killed by the middle-aged man.

From then on, people had known that the middle-aged man was a powerful Epic-ranked human. He might be even stronger.

People only knew that his surname was Qing. They did not know anything else. After killing the group of demons, the Epic-ranked creature had disappeared into the shadows of the city. No one knew where he was. They only knew that he was silently guarding the city.

Many people watched that person leave. Soon, another Epic-ranked human landed and reached Ma Tengyun’s side. At that moment, people realized that the aircraft used by the human Epic-ranked creature was very similar to the weapon style of the Soaring Cloud City. It seemed like the two aircrafts had been manufactured by the Soaring Cloud City.

At the same time, an Epic-ranked Black Dragon descended from the sky. The Black Dragon disappeared, and Zhou Song and Xiao Bin landed on the ground. The two of them emitted an extremely powerful aura that was stronger than the aura of any Epic-ranked creature present.

The Epic-ranked creatures retreated in fear. Meanwhile, the Legendary creatures frowned. They had a feeling.

This was the real Epic stage. This was the real imposing aura.

However, a moment later, the imposing aura of Zhou Song and his companion disappeared. The violent and powerful aura returned to normal.

The Legendary-level Golden Eagle landed on the ground and stood on the humans’ side. Many Golden Eagles carrying humans also returned to the ground. This time, they did not crawl on the ground. Instead, they held their heads high. The humans on their backs jumped down and clapped their hands in celebration.

“We won!”

A few Epic humans said, “That’s right. We won.”

Many demons who had not gone to the battlefield were a little ashamed, but most of them still openly admitted that they did not dare go to the battlefield. There was nothing to be ashamed of. When it came to being afraid of death, it was what it was. It was not wrong for a beast living in the jungle to be afraid of death. It was glorious to be afraid of death!

That was the difference between demons and humans.

Even so, the demons still had basic manners. They first expressed their gratitude to the humans before shamelessly asking the humans, “What’s the secret to becoming stronger? How are you able to create such powerful weapons?”

Face or dignity was useless. As long as one became stronger, one would be shameless.

A Rare-ranked human told the group of demons, “Why are humans so powerful? It’s because humans have nine years of compulsory education. The stronger the youth, the stronger the country. Education is the foundation of a strong country…”

This person was a chatterbox. It was not easy for him to find an opportunity to talk, so he immediately started chatting. The group of demons was confused, but they had to memorize this carefully.

What are you talking about?

At that moment, Ma Tengyun led his team in front of the demons and said, “This foreign enemy has invaded the area. The crisis has yet to be resolved. The interstellar Zergs are still eyeing us covetously. Even though we were once enemies, we should unite and form an alliance to resist the foreign enemy. Otherwise, if this planet is invaded, we will not survive!”

Ma Tengyun’s words made the demons fall silent. These demons could not represent all demons, but they were all demons saved from the Zerg broodmother by Wei Huo. That was why they’d started to have a good impression of humans. Besides, humans had displayed powerful strength. They instinctively wanted to get close to the humans and learn technology from them.

The chatterbox said, “When we leave the county city, the people who walk out of the same county will all be considered residents of the same hometown. The same applies to a province or country. Based on the same logic, when we walk out of this planet, we will all be considered residents of the same hometown!”
