“Not really!” Miyamoto Shigeo chuckled. “While those induced IVF babies are incredibly destructive, due to the drug-induced process, their intelligence is generally not very high! At most, they are at the level of an eight-year-old child, and they are particularly afraid of sonic attacks.”

"As long as we calculate the locations Delta Red Star intends to attack in advance and set up traps, we can basically achieve zero casualties during the battle! Of course, there have been a few times when we were completely wiped out. After all, those guys are just too strong in direct combat."

Just as Miyamoto Shio was giving the Kassel squad the Kopdelta Red Star, Genjiro and Genjiro's discussion also came to a conclusion.

Genjiro walked up to Hango: "Respected Mr. Hango, would you be so kind as to allow your mixed-blood family's combat forces to intervene in this war and help our family wipe out Delta Red Star? After it is accomplished, we will definitely pay you a price that satisfies you."

"Of course!" Han Gao grinned exaggeratedly. "We're allies with the Snake-Headed Eight Families now, so of course we'll help with something as small as this! As for the reward... as the head of the family knows, we're all businessmen. I'll send someone to coordinate the reward with the Snake-Headed Eight Families!"

"Then thank you, Mr. Han Gao." Genji nodded slightly to express his gratitude.

After handling matters related to "Delta Red Star", Genji walked up to the crowd.

"Let's go, I'll take you all to see the Red Demon River!"

Fuma Kotaro walked at the front of the group, leading everyone through a long, narrow tunnel. At the end of the tunnel, a blood-red land appeared.

"Ugh, it stinks!" Caesar frowned. "This is... the smell of marsh gas?"

"Almost there! Put on your gas masks and let's keep going!" Genji found a bunch of gas masks in a small hut, and the group continued to venture deeper inside.

The further you go, the deeper the red becomes underfoot, until finally... the land turns into an eerie dark red, like a flowing pool of blood!

At the edge of this land was a red river, with a hazy steam rising from it. Even with gas masks on, everyone could still faintly smell the pungent metallic odor.

Han Gao walked to the riverbank, squatted down, picked up a handful of soil, and kneaded it. His expression immediately became serious.

"Is this humus? What kind of creatures used to live here?"

"Didn't Mr. Han Gao already guess it?" Genji looked at Han Gao's solemn expression and could not deny it.

"Just as you can imagine, this place was once home to a large number of dragon blood subspecies! When the Snake Clan first dug this place out, there were even some Ghost-toothed Dragon Vipers living in this river!"

Genji paused for a moment, then continued, "Do you know why this place is called the Red Demon River? It's because a red river flows through it all year round! Dragon Blood Subspecies, which are what our ancestors called 'demons,' live in the river."

“Since there are dragon blood subspecies in the Red Demon River, there must be even more dragon blood subspecies in the Well of Hidden Bones! What contingency plans has the Snake Clan prepared for this?” Angers asked with great interest.

"Let me take you all to see!" Genji led everyone to the edge of the Red Demon River. If they went any further, they would fall into the river water, which smelled of iron.

"Gentlemen, what can you see?"

"Of course it's river water, what else could it be? Is there a river god in the Red Ghost River?" Lu Mingfei's nonsense came out without hesitation.

"No, it's not just river water! There's a considerable amount of mercury deposited beneath the riverbed!" Ronald McDonald, who hadn't said a word since they met, spoke up.

Ronald McDonald's voice was hoarse and deep, clearly altered using some kind of voice changer.

“Mercury? What a brilliant idea!” Angers exclaimed in admiration.

"Yes, that's right! We dumped seven thousand tons of mercury and several hundred tons of thermite into the Red Demon River! As soon as the Red Demon River and the Well of Hidden Bones are connected, the people from the Rock Flow Research Institute will ignite the thermite and turn all the mercury beneath this body of water into mercury vapor!"

"That's a really underhanded trick!" Han Gao exclaimed. "But it's quite effective, just like the old man Yin Ang Re back in the day!"

……

Everything is running at full speed!

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Over the course of three days, the Snake Clan and the mixed-blood families transported various weapons from different places. With the help of the Ganryu Research Institute, these weapons were installed in the No. 13 water storage well, turning the place into a deadly place from which there was no return.

At the same time, Ryoma Genichiro, the head of the Ryoma family, was temporarily conscripted into the Japanese Self-Defense Force as a first-class air colonel through special procedures. The air force squadron he led was always paying attention to the "No. 13 water storage well". As long as there was any unusual activity here, Ryoma Genichiro's air force squadron would be dispatched immediately.

The warheads carried by the fighter jets in this air force formation have all undergone special modifications by the Ganryu Research Institute, which have added mercury and refined nitrate to enhance their lethality against dragons!

A salvo from a dozen or so fighter jets would probably be too much for even the first-generation race to withstand!

157 The White Emperor

The White Emperor's attack arrived on the morning of the fourth day.

At eight o'clock in the morning, after a simple breakfast, everyone began another round of boring life.

Tang Yu and Erii were huddled in a military tent playing video games, while Caesar was rambling on his laptop, supposedly writing a fantasy book for Nono.

Lu Mingfei was playing StarCraft, while Chu Zihang and Xia Mi were snuggled together watching Qiong Yao dramas.

Accidents always happen so suddenly!

Just as Tang Yu's Iori Yagami was about to touch Erii's Takashi, a sudden, urgent alarm broke the tranquility of the morning.

At the same time, Genjiro's solemn voice rang out over the loudspeaker: "All members of the Kassel Squad, please proceed to the Red Demon River immediately. I repeat, all members of the Kassel Squad, please proceed to the Red Demon River immediately!"

Outside the marching tents, the entire No. 13 water reservoir was flashing a blinding red light. Seeing this, the Kassel squad realized the seriousness of the situation.

The group quickly donned their gear and headed to the banks of the Akagami River.

When they arrived, the members of the Snake Clan had already been waiting there for a while.

The patriarch, Genjiro, was holding a pager and speaking with a serious expression.

"Head of the Miyamoto family, how's the excavation progress on your end?"

"Still a bit short!" Miyamoto Shigeo's slightly panting voice came from the other side. "It will take me at least another half hour to clear the path to the Well of Corpses!"

Is there a faster way?

"Yes, there is. If the tunneling machine engine is overloaded, the time will be shortened to twenty minutes, but correspondingly, there is a 70% chance that the engine will be damaged due to the overload!"

Genjiro was silent for a moment. “Let’s be cautious. We don’t need to activate the overload. Half an hour… We’ll be responsible for holding off Hakuou. After you dig open the Well of Remains, quickly ignite the thermite and then throw the ‘Amaterasu’ mercury-silver bomb sent by the Ganryu Research Institute into the Well of Remains. Make sure that Hakuou’s remains inside are completely destroyed!”

Genji paused for a moment, then said, "I wish you great success in your military campaigns! You must come back alive!"

"It will definitely happen!" Deep in the Akaki River, Miyamoto Shio raised his sword, Kikuichimonji Norimune, and gestured towards the distance. He knew that the steel-like man in the distance was also wielding Dojigiri and Kumogiri...

……

"The White Emperor is coming, everyone get ready!" Yuan Zhisheng tapped his laptop lightly. A moment later, a light green radar image appeared on the screen, showing a huge black dot moving at an extremely fast speed toward the No. 13 water storage well where everyone was.

"This is the radar image from the Ryoma family's main air force formation. The White Emperor is now less than 20 kilometers away from us! I have had the Snake-Ghost Eight Family's people in the political circles disguise the White Emperor's signal as a large passenger plane. In five minutes, the signal of this large passenger plane will disappear from our area."

“From the moment the signal disappeared until the top echelons of the cabinet reacted, we had six hours! In those six hours, we needed to handle everything properly… Otherwise, the secret that the hybrid race had concealed for hundreds of years would be exposed to the public eye, which is something no one wants to see!”

"There will be no support in this battle, so... gentlemen, I look forward to a grand feast with you all after this battle!"

“I’m looking forward to it too.” Caesar patted Genji on the shoulder. “How about we make a pact? We’ll go to the nudist beach in Italy next year to sell sunscreen!”

"Alright." A smile appeared on Genji's usually cold and hard face. "Just don't die!"

"Definitely not!"

The two exchanged a glance and both revealed a smile that only men could understand.

As they were speaking, the alarm bell that had been ringing throughout the No. 13 water storage well suddenly stopped. The sound stopped without warning, and in that instant... it was as if the world had gone silent!

Tang Yu touched his face; he felt a breeze...

But they were at a depth of more than 800 meters underground, so how could there be wind?

As if they understood something, the crowd slowly raised their heads and looked towards the opening of the water well. There, they saw a dragon! A gigantic dragon, entirely white, its body shimmering with a holy light.

"How beautiful!" Lu Mingfei, who had never seen anything like it before, stared blankly at the giant dragon, his eyes filled with shock.

"Beautiful my foot! Get ready to defend, stop spacing out!" Caesar gave Lu Mingfei a hard thud on the head, snapping the guy out of his daze.

Two days prior, apart from the squad that targeted the White Emperor, the remaining members of the Snake Clan had already withdrawn from this area.

Therefore, at this moment, only Tang Yu and his group remained in the No. 13 water storage well. Apart from the weapons that could fire automatically, the rest of the weapons needed to be operated by the personnel who remained here.

Fortunately, hybrids have a very strong learning ability, and the staff at the Ganryu Research Institute spent two days teaching them the basics of how to operate these weapons.

Under everyone's control, the massive amount of heavy weapons covering the walls of the water storage well slowly began to move. These weapons were preheating... As long as the White Emperor dared to enter this place, a massive amount of thermal weapons would be rained down on His scales.

Although it's unclear whether it can actually damage Him, it can at least weaken the White Emperor (which seems pretty powerful).

"By the way, Tortoise, why are you so sure that the White Emperor will enter the Well of Bones from here?" Caesar gripped the control stick tightly, speaking casually to Genji.

Genji activated the launch restrictions for missile-type weapons, then took a moment to reply, "If you want to enter the Well of Corpses, Hakuou only has two paths to take!"

"One is that He himself dug a tunnel more than 800 meters deep several kilometers away. The second is that He entered the No. 13 water storage well and then went directly into the well where the remains are stored."

"Given the White Emperor's pride, He would never dig a new tunnel himself, so... He can only pass through here!" Genji said confidently.

The White Emperor hesitated for a few seconds at the wellhead, and after a moment, it flapped its wings and soared into the sky, then swooped down at an extremely fast speed.

In less than half a second, Bai Huang had already entered the No. 13 water storage well.

"Fire!" Yuan Zhisheng shouted.

In an instant, deafening sounds filled the entire water storage well, with gunshots and cannon fire ringing out incessantly.

Various types of weapons struck the White Emperor's scales, only causing sparks to fly... It proved that these weapons could only slightly hinder the White Emperor's progress and could not cause any real damage to Him.

Everyone's hearts sank...

Following the wall of the water storage well downwards, Bai Huang spent ten minutes breaking through the heavily armed network of firepower with unparalleled force.

Chapter 158: Fierce Battle with the White Emperor

At this time, there were still 20 minutes before Miyamoto Shio dug through the well containing the remains.

A normal 20 minutes will pass in the blink of an eye, but these 20 minutes felt like an eternity.

“There’s no other way but to go for it! Come on, you little bastard, enjoy your grandpa’s caresses!” Angers threw down the controller in his hand and pulled out a folding knife from his sleeve.

His spiritual power surged forth like a tide, and the Second Blood Explosion and the Word of Power Time Zero were activated simultaneously.

As the Zero Time Domain unfolded, Angers' figure vanished from everyone's perception in an instant, and then... sparks began to flash on the White Emperor's body, which was like a work of art.

"Is that guy Angers so hot-tempered? Old people should be careful to cultivate their character, or they'll easily shorten their lifespan!" Han Gao slowly finished the last puff of his Chinese cigarette. He stared at Bai Huang and raised the alchemical wheel in his hand—Texas Dawn.

Word of Power: Holy Judgment activated!

Guided by the power of the Word of Power, a cross, emitting a faint white light, appeared on the White Emperor's third vertebra, eyes, and right chest.

This is the first ability of "Holy Judgment"—weakness marking.

“Then next… eat shit, White Emperor!” Han Gao squinted and pulled the trigger.

Within the "Texas Dawn," there are a total of four Philosopher's Stone bullets, and now, Han Gao has fired the first one.
