Cave Refuge

Chapter 714: Burn



The monster left the Magic Capital Base to pursue the survivors, and even though Dong Tianyu was resting within the Companion Spiritual Treasure, his Divine Sense had long since detected that monster.

Compared to other people who could not detect the monster in advance, Dong Tianyu did not simply ignore it.

This time when he saw the monster again, Dong Tianyu did not plan to attack proactively; after all, the last time he acted, he had used up so much Explosives and ultimately gained little in return. Although capturing the beheaded head with the Cave was not in vain, the gains did not outweigh the costs, and overall, he still suffered a significant loss.

That's why, on seeing the monster again this time, Dong Tianyu no longer intended to make a move.

Just as Dong Tianyu was preparing to return to the Companion Spiritual Treasure to wake up his parents and prepare for a strategic relocation, he suddenly noticed the silhouette of military aircraft in the sky. It was precisely because of the appearance of the aircraft that Dong Tianyu temporarily halted his subsequent actions, ready to see what the purpose of the aircraft this time was.

Watching the aircraft tearing through the skies, Dong Tianyu figured that at this time, only the Imperial Court could possibly dispatch military aircraft. Otherwise, even if it were local Officials, it was unlikely that they could obtain aircraft.

After all, to still possess aircraft at this time, it definitely must have been stored from before the Natural Disaster, locations like those completely sealed underground spaces, other than those essentially once-in-a-decade fully enclosed storage warehouses, it was unlikely any other places could have preserved aircraft from before the Natural Disaster.

Although he did not approach, Dong Tianyu used his Divine Sense to watch the entire process from the Missile being drawn into the monster's mouth to the Missile exploding in the monster's stomach.

And moreover, Dong Tianyu also observed through his Divine Sense how, after the explosion in the monster's stomach, the monster used the blood stored in its body to repair its damaged organs.

Watching the monster's blood continuously reshaping the organs that had just been shattered by the explosion, Dong Tianyu didn't want the monster to revive and cause trouble again, so he prepared to take advantage of the monster's severe injuries and inability to resist, directly sending it into the Cave to be dissected.

But just as Dong Tianyu was preparing to head to the scene, he suddenly noticed several more aircraft appear in the sky. Looking at the rounded bodies of those aircraft, Dong Tianyu kept guessing what the purpose of these aircraft at this time could be.

Watching the planes get closer yet descend in altitude, Dong Tianyu thought that the others would, just like in TV dramas, land directly in the nearby area, then some mad scientists would walk down from the planes and take samples and dissect the monster's body.

However, Dong Tianyu never expected that although those aircraft did approach and start to lower their flight altitude, they did not plan to land here. Instead, upon nearing the monster's body, they directly opened the belly hatch of the plane and dropped some things onto the monster's corpse.

Looking at the cylindrical objects falling from the cabin, Dong Tianyu initially thought they would be bombs, as this could also be seen as a finishing move on the monster, which theoretically had nothing wrong.

But what Dong Tianyu did not expect was that the objects the aircraft dropped from the cabin were indeed meant as a finishing move, but the objects dropped were not bombs but rather barrels of a rather special chemical Potion.

These barrels were likely poor in quality, for as soon as they fell from a high altitude onto the monster's body and made contact, they immediately shattered, and the liquid inside the barrels directly scattered onto the monster's body.

By the time those aircraft left, hundreds of barrels filled with chemical Potion had been dropped onto the monster's body, and all those Potion-filled barrels were of very poor quality; they would shatter immediately upon touching the monster's body.

At this point, the monster's body lying on the ground, as well as the large surrounding area, were already doused with the somewhat foul-smelling chemical Potion.

Just as Dong Tianyu was wondering about the function of these chemical Potions, a breeze blew by, and the originally somewhat thick chemical Potion spontaneously ignited without fire.

Moreover, what was most crucial was that the color of the flames sparked by the chemical Potion was not the usual orange-red color, but a rather cold-looking blue-white color.

In fact, different flame colors were something that every household would commonly encounter before the Natural Disaster.

Do not feel that encountering this kind of thing is difficult; the gas stove used for cooking at home, with flames spraying out of the nozzles, already displayed several different colors.

The variation in flame colors shown could generally only mean two possibilities: one commonly seen in various fireworks, which simply means that by adding various different minerals during combustion, the appearance of the flame during burning changes.

The other possibility is continually increasing the flame's temperature; it is said that the higher the flame's temperature, the paler the color of the flame appears.

From the pale white flames now showing on the monster's body, one could guess how potent the flames were.

Seeing the monster's body and the surrounding land doused with chemical Potion, and when the chemical Potion was ignited, a continuous crackling sound began to emanate from the monster's body parts.

Some older folks upon hearing this sound might find it quite familiar; this crackling sound typically only appears when bugs are being burnt.
