National Fate: Eight Yin Generals Guard China from Their Sleeping Coffins

Ah Jie clasped his hands together, and the thousand-handed phantom behind him had expanded to its limit.

Twelve golden weapons swirled around him, creating an impenetrable storm.

"Come on! You scum!"

Ah Jie roared at the top of his lungs, the veins on his forehead throbbing.

He had just obtained the "Thousand-Handed Asura" bloodline through personal enhancement, and originally thought he could dominate the battlefield in this wave.

But now, his heart sank.

The vajra slammed down hard on the back of a fissure worm.

"clang!"

A piercing metallic clang rang out.

Ah Jie's hands were lacerated at the base of his thumbs, and blood flowed down his wrists.

The insect's prismatic carapace didn't even leave a white mark; instead, it bounced back the impact of the vajra intact, causing A-Jie's chest to churn violently.

Before he could even catch his breath, a black crack appeared in the yellow sand beneath his feet without warning.

Three fissure worms darted out from the crack, their sharp forelimbs whistling through the air as they headed straight for A-Jie's lower body.

"Get out of here!"

A-Jie manipulated the phantom to swing a long sword to block.

The moment the blade touched the carapace, the three insects vanished into the air, disappearing without a trace.

The next second, A-Jie felt a sharp pain in his back.

Two sickle-like forelimbs emerged from the spatial rift behind him, easily piercing his collarbone.

A-Jie screamed as half of the Thousand Hands Illusion instantly dissipated.

He had never fought such a frustrating battle in his life.

Physical defenses are useless; the opponent can come out from wherever they want.

Kill the first ten, and twenty more will emerge from the shadows beneath your feet.

"Help...help!"

Ah Jie's pride vanished, and he scrambled to the base of the city wall.

His thighs, shoulders, and abdomen were pierced by insect legs that appeared out of nowhere.

Ah Jie was pinned to the city wall, blood gushing out like it was free.

The space behind the city wall suddenly twisted.

A massive black crack, hundreds of meters long, was forcibly torn open.

A Zerg queen, whose body is over fifty meters long, is struggling to squeeze half of her body out of the crack.

Its enormous body was covered with countless compound eyes, and larvae were constantly falling out from the gaps in its abdominal carapace.

The Queen looked down at A-Jie, who was nailed to the wall, and her abdomen suddenly contracted.

"puff--"

A stream of dark green, highly concentrated acidic liquid poured down like a waterfall.

The acid covered an area of ​​more than 50 square meters.

Before Ah Jie could even let out his last scream, the Thousand Hands Illusion on his body was instantly corroded away completely.

Flesh, internal organs, and bones sizzled and hissed under the high-temperature acid liquid at thousands of degrees Celsius.

Just two seconds.

All that remained was a pool of bubbling, greenish bone fluid.

The city gate behind A-Jie collapsed with a roar under the frenzied impact of countless fissure worms, shattering into a pile of debris.

The system's mechanical voice tolled a death knell in the minds of everyone around the world right on time.

[The White Elephant defense line has collapsed, and all players have been eliminated.]

[One hundred thousand spatial rift worms will immediately descend upon the White Elephant Kingdom.]

……

Singapore position.

The blind awakened one, Li Wei, covered his ears tightly with both hands, huddled in a crater, and trembled like a leaf.

His "mind's eye" skill was activated to the maximum.

With this skill's perception, he could even "see" everything happening on the White Elephant Kingdom's position tens of thousands of kilometers away.

The scene of Ah Jie melting into bone water was clearly imprinted in his mind.

Li Wei's teeth were chattering, and he didn't even realize he had bitten his tongue.

"It's unstoppable...it's impossible to stop..." Li Wei muttered nervously.

His mind's eye can sense the formation of a spatial rift half a second in advance, but what's the use of that?

His body simply couldn't keep up with his reaction speed.

He had just witnessed with his own eyes that the sickly man named Liu Bai from China could see the weaknesses of 100,000 insects clearly with just his eyes.

On what grounds?

Everyone here is an Awakened One, so why is it that the Chinese can see through the rules directly, while he can only hide in the mud and wait to die like a rat in the sewer?

Jealousy and fear gnawed at Livy's heart like venomous snakes.

The air around him began to distort.

Three spatial rifts were forming simultaneously above his head, to his left, and behind him.

Li Wei closed his eyes; he no longer had the strength to run.

……

White Elephant Country, New Delhi.

The midday sun was blocked by the giant split screen in the sky, and the entire city was shrouded in an eerie gloom.

Traffic on the streets had long been paralyzed, and tens of thousands of people were crowded on the road, holding various idols in their hands, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing and praying frantically.

"God, bless us..."

The prayers had not yet ended.

A manhole cover in the middle of the road suddenly cracked open with a black seam without warning.

It's not an ordinary crack, but an abyss where even space itself has been cut open.

A fissure worm, about half the height of a person, crawled out from inside, and with a swing of its sickle-like forelegs, sliced ​​the middle-aged man who was still kowtowing in front of it in two.

Blood splattered all over the faces of those around him.

The crowd froze for half a second, then erupted in heart-wrenching screams and scattered frantically in all directions.

But this is just the beginning.

The entire city, wherever there was a crack or crevice, became an outlet for insects.

Monsters were continuously spewing out from under the chassis of cars parked on the roadside, from the gaps in the air conditioning units on the exterior walls of buildings, and even from the gaps in the tightly closed wardrobe doors and sewer openings inside residential buildings.

One hundred thousand fissure worms, like a black tide, flooded the crowded city.

The armored forces stationed on the edge of the city finally reacted.

The commander stood on the tank, waving his arms wildly.

"Fire! Open fire at all levels!"

The cannons of hundreds of main battle tanks simultaneously spewed fire, and a barrage of armor-piercing and high-explosive shells rained down on the swarm of insects.

"Boom boom boom!"

The smoke of battle has cleared.

The commander's hand, holding the binoculars, froze in mid-air.

The shells hit the prism carapace of the rift worm without leaving even a scratch.

Not only that, the refracted light on the carapace suddenly flashed.

All the kinetic energy and explosive energy were bounced back along the same path!

"Get down!"

The commander only had time to shout those two words.

The ricocheting shells exploded directly inside the armored positions.

More than a dozen tanks were instantly turned into burning iron coffins.

Even worse were the civilians who hadn't had time to escape.

The stray bullets and shrapnel, like wheat being harvested, plowed bloody alleys through the crowd.

The more intense the army's firepower, the greater the damage from the backlash.

In less than ten minutes, the entire city of New Delhi was transformed into a giant slaughterhouse.

Limbs and torsos were everywhere, and blood from the sewers even overflowed onto the streets.

A nation of four billion people cannot even put up the most basic resistance against the space rift worms, and can only become a one-sided food source.

The public channel of Global Sky Screen is completely flooded with comments.

[The Kingdom of White Elephant is gone! The capital was gone in ten minutes!]

Bugs are crawling out of my water pipes! Help! Someone please help me!

The army's artillery fire destroyed our own building, and the energy was all reflected back by the bugs!

Physical attacks are useless, superpowers are useless, how am I supposed to fight this?!

[Where's China?! Quickly switch to the Chinese screen, they'll definitely have a way!]

[Please, China, open your borders! I'll do anything for you, just let me in!]

The Chinese people cannot stand idly by and watch others die; this is a disaster for all humanity. Those who have the ability should shoulder their responsibility!

[Screw your responsibility! When your White Elephant Country followed the Bald Eagle in imposing sanctions on our chips and food three months ago, why didn't you talk about all of humanity?]

"Now you know to beg us? Too late! Our spiritual energy barrier of China only protects the Chinese people!"

[Don't let your death outside pollute our land!]

……

Yanjing, the strategic command center 100 meters underground.

The atmosphere in the main control room was extremely tense.

On the large screen, the tragic situation in New Delhi, the land of white elephants, was being broadcast live.

Staff Officer Li, holding a tactical tablet, strode to the sand table and reported in a low voice.

"Sir, the entire territory of White Elephant Kingdom is paralyzed. Their army has given up resistance, and now more than 30 million refugees are pouring into our southwestern border buffer zone."

Zhou Yaoguo pressed his hands on the edge of the sand table, his face so dark it could drip water.

"How is the spiritual energy barrier on the southwestern defense line functioning?"

"Operating normally. The third squad of the Dragon Soul Force is in position, and all border heavy firepower has locked onto the area 500 meters outside the boundary marker."

Staff Officer Li answered crisply and decisively.

Minister Chen walked over with a teacup in his hand and gave a cold snort.

"These people can't even defend their own country, so they try to storm our borders. They really think we're a charity."

Just then, the red confidential hotline on the command platform suddenly rang urgently.

The communications soldier glanced at the caller ID, then turned to look at Zhou Yaoguo.

"Sir, this is the Prime Minister's private line."

Zhou Yaoguo raised an eyebrow, strode over, and pressed the speakerphone button.

Inside a nuclear air-raid shelter 200 meters underground in New Delhi.

Prime Minister Bai Xiangguo slumped in his chair, gripping the microphone tightly in his hand, the veins on the back of his hand bulging.

A dull tremor emanated from the ceiling above.

That was the sound of fissure worms tearing at the outer steel plate of the air-raid shelter.

His million-strong army, which he was so proud of, couldn't even last ten minutes.

Now, his only hope lies with the person on the other end of the phone.

The call was connected.

The Premier seemed to have grasped at a straw, his voice trembling with obvious sobs, and he couldn't even maintain his usual aloof demeanor.

"General Zhou! I am the Prime Minister of the White Elephant Kingdom! New Delhi is about to collapse!"

He swallowed hard and eagerly threw out his chips.

"If China is willing to send its Dragon Soul Force to support us, or open its southwestern border to accept our refugees, we are willing to unconditionally hand over all our gold reserves! We might even... sign a supplementary treaty!"

In the command center, Zhou Yaoguo listened to the voice coming from the speakerphone, his face remaining completely calm.

He reached for the microphone, his voice steady and without any fluctuation.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, have you forgotten something?"

The prime minister on the other end of the phone was taken aback.

"What?"

Zhou Yaoguo tapped his fingers twice on the table.

"Three months ago, when you colluded with the United States to seize a Chinese cargo ship on the high seas, cutting off our rare earth supply chain, and even proposed sanctions against China at the United Nations General Assembly, did you ever think about today?"

The Prime Minister's breath hitched, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.

"General Zhou, that's all in the past! Now is a time of life and death for all humanity. Your China cannot be so selfish! You have the power to cultivate immortality, so you should..."

"Shut up."

Zhou Yaoguo interrupted him directly.

"The strength of China was earned by the lives of eight of our frontline soldiers; it was left to us by our ancestors. It's not meant to be used to clean up the messes of you ungrateful wretches."

Zhou Yaoguo leaned down slightly and spoke into the microphone, word by word.

"One reaps what one sows. China does not welcome guests."
