The Star River Era! The Dimensional Freedom Demon

Ji Chen did not lie to the Frost Giant Turtle.

On the other side of the East China Sea, Ji Chen indeed sensed a sufficiently powerful opponent.

Its biomagnetic field strength is almost twice that of Ji Chen.

While the strength of a biomagnetic field cannot fully represent an individual's strength, it does reflect the extraordinary nature of that opponent.

It should be noted that even Chi Yu, who is already at the fifth level, has a magnetic field strength that is only about the same as Ji Chen's.

The deep sea is even deeper.

Since unlocking the ability to rotate magnetic fields, Ji Chen has not only greatly increased his ability to use electromagnetism, but he can also often hear low- and high-frequency waves from mysterious creatures.

This should be a change brought about by Ji Chen's adaptive evolution.

In short, intelligent beings have already emerged in the ocean, using different wavelengths of audio to communicate and interact.

At the very least, Ji Chen heard the news that the ocean's swarm of killer whales, after undergoing a collective mutation, had declared themselves kings of the ocean.

Orcas, whose intelligence is second only to humans on the planet, have far more opportunities than humans.

Aside from suffering a few setbacks in the first few days of the mutation period, the orca pods quickly used their more intelligent brains and sharper sonic waves, mutated and evolved, to gather their kind globally and establish an effective tribe.

Then, relying on organized and coordinated planning, they occupied a considerable portion of the resource-rich territories in the four oceans.

Other whale species were also influenced by this and followed suit.

There are also various octopus tribes.

A maritime civilization has begun to take shape.

It can be said that the ocean was the first place on this planet where intelligent species gained dominance.

Even in the vast ocean, there are always some exceptionally gifted mutated sea creatures that emerge.

However, these mutated sea monsters often find themselves hunted by the whale confederation, which has already established a global audio network, before they even have a chance to challenge the whales' authority.

If it weren't for the sudden appearance of the giant fish and Ji Chen's interference, it would have been foreseeable that the oceans would be ruled by whales in the future.

After all, octopuses don't have the same information dissemination capabilities as whales.

Suddenly, Ji Chen remembered the maritime disaster that had occurred in Ye Xiao's future memories, which had caused the coastal plains of Da Xuan to be submerged.

On that occasion, a giant whale was spotted.

"I'm afraid that was just the whales testing the waters on land."

Ji Chen had some guesses.

This is the advantage of information. If human communication equipment could be preserved and national organizations remained intact, coupled with secret weapons, they might be able to maintain a certain level of advantage.

But Ji Chen glanced at the sky.

Groups of meteorites streaked across the sky, leaving fleeting streaks of light.

After the last meteorite disaster, they did not disappear from the world stage; it's just that D City was unlucky enough not to encounter them again.

They continue to fall, more or less, onto this ravaged planet.

On the distant horizon, new plumes of smoke and flames rose intermittently.

Ji Chen remained silent.

When connecting the planet's magnetic field, Ji Chen discovered that the planet's magnetic field was problematic.

He is capturing the meteorites he encounters in his orbit in an almost instinctive way.

The majestic dragon-shaped behemoth lightly stomped the ground, emitting a strange, low laugh.

. . . . . .

Yingzhou Island.

Heian Jing.

"What time is it? You bunch of useless fools! Haven't you thought of a way to drive that monster away yet?"

Genji Terunosuke, sporting a mustache, slammed his fist on the table in anger.

"If we don't drive it away soon, we fear we won't even be able to preserve the last vestige of our Heian-kyo! Our samurai are fighting desperately at the front, and you bunch of useless academic dogs are utterly useless?!"

The monsters that landed on Yingzhou Island had an incomprehensible desire for chemical plants and nuclear factories, seemingly able to gain an increase in strength from them.

For these delicious "delicacies," the monster even blocked other mutated sea creatures from landing in the ocean, preventing them from causing destruction.

If it weren't for the fact that the monster's target was the factory, their hope for revival, and for safety reasons, the Yingzhou people would have insisted on sacrificing it.

"Sir, it's not that we don't want to serve, but the remaining equipment is simply too inadequate to produce the biological weapons we need!"

"Equipment! Equipment! Back in the day, Da Xuan could conjure up nuclear weapons with an abacus, but you, who have gained superpowers, can't even create a single virus to suppress that monster. What use are you to me?!"

Gen Terunosuke drew his sword, ready to kill these white-coated men he disliked.

Just then.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency, we have extracted the active ingredient from the Nightmare Mushroom and created this Nightmare Potion that can cause the Beast King to become lost in a dream and die!"

A young man in a white coat walked quickly towards them, looking flustered.

Genji took the potion and, recalling the death zone created by the Nightmare Mushroom in Kitagawa Sawa, felt a surge of excitement.

"Hahaha, the Minamoto family was right about you. If you can drive away or even bewitch that monster, you will surely share in the honor of restoring Heian-kyo."

Having said that, Genji Terunosuke didn't waste any time and darted out of the base like the wind.

Roar! !

As soon as Genji stepped out of the base, a deep roar tore through the sky, making the metal rivets on the buildings buzz.

A colossal beast, hundreds of meters tall, stood atop the ruins, its three heads menacingly surveying the city.

The bluish-gray scales continuously dripped highly corrosive chemical liquid, causing the ground to emit plumes of white smoke.

Its massive tail swept across, and the reinforced concrete buildings on both sides collapsed like building blocks.

In the streets and alleys, agile combatants surrounded the giant beast, firing guns or hacking and slashing with knives and axes.

Well-trained and methodical.

It is clear that they are all highly skilled martial artists.

But these attacks landed on the three-headed behemoth without even a spark, and the damage was less than that caused by a mosquito bite.

The difference between a third-tier human evolver and a fifth-tier beast king is already negligible; even breaking through its defenses is a pipe dream.

Conversely, if these combatants were to be accidentally grazed or touched by the three giant beasts, they would be reduced to blood and gore.

But these harassing actions, which resembled those of tiny insects, eventually attracted the attention of the three giant beasts after incurring heavy casualties.

"Master Minamoto!"

At that moment, someone saw Genji Terunosuke arriving and cheered.

Before the great change, Minamoto no Terunosuke was already a top fighter, and he had a very high reputation in the eyes of these people.

Coupled with his illustrious family background, born into a technologically advanced aristocracy that ruled Yingzhou Island, his abilities became unstoppable after he awakened his superpowers.

He became the leader of Heian-kyo.

It was because of his presence that these combatants were able to fight the giant beasts with their lives on the line.

"hateful!"

Seeing his subordinates suffering heavy casualties, Minamoto no Terunosuke's face was contorted with rage.

Even though the Bushido spirit was strong on Yingzhou Island and the secret martial arts never disappeared, the number of fighters who survived after the apocalypse was pitifully small.

Now, with just one interception, more than a third of them have died. How can this not break his heart?

"And which of these lowly people? Didn't I give you ten thousand lowly people? Let them die!"

The term "outcasts" naturally refers to ordinary people who are still alive in Heian-kyo and have no value.

"Sir, those lowly people..."

The person who replied immediately reddened their eyes, not from sadness, but from regret.

"Those lowly people are useless. Just now, this monster roared a few times, and those lowly people suffered heavy casualties."

"Alright, have the warriors on the front lines withdraw. Our nuclear plant cannot be lost, but I can't bear to see you warriors die in vain."

"Your Mightiness!"

At this moment, countless soldiers were moved to tears by Genji Terunosuke's heartfelt words.
