The Failed War

A large number of Giant Serpent crawled out of the sea, and these Giant Snake also moved very fast on land. Even the fortress built by the Snake People with black basalt on the coast trembled, and the countless snake-shaped patterns on the basalt blocks lit up and turned into scales.

The entire fortress transformed into a giant snake's head. The earth cracked open, and the body hidden in the sea began to move. These Snake People hadn't been building a battle fortress these past few days; they were building weapons.

The environment on land is naturally different from that on the seabed, so this weapon of war must be designed with the land environment in mind. That's why there is a snake head sticking out to collect various environmental parameters in order to prepare for more weapons of war, and incidentally to show weakness to the enemy, making humans think that they are going to fight a war of attrition.

The enormous basalt Giant Serpent, like an ancient beast, advanced all the way, appearing from afar like a mountain range galloping across the land, sending up clouds of sand and dust. Several Correctors flew directly into the air, unleashing a combined burst of violent twisting power that crashed into the basalt Giant Serpent.

However, the twisting forces that struck the basalt were all diverted by the twisted serpentine patterns using some unknown technology, leaving not a single trace on the basalt.

Although the basalt Giant Serpent was enormous, it was not slow either. Its massive body rolled directly over the city wall without any obstruction, and the giant serpent advanced into the human city.

The next moment, the scales on the giant basalt Giant Serpent opened, and a large number of snakes were launched out like cannonballs. Some of these launched snakes were no different from those that crawled out of the sea, and even when they were lying down, they were as tall as a person.

These Giant Serpent are one of the combat weapons created by the Snake People, similar to human tanks and armored vehicles. Inside Giant Serpent is Snake People who controls a different part of its body.

One Snake People controls the Giant Serpent's movements from the head, while another controls the weapons used in the Snake People Giant Serpent chariot. The weapons of the serpent-man chariot are snake hairs that can fire beams of highly poisonous light. Ordinary people will die instantly if they are hit, Daoists will not fare much better, and even Correctors will become extremely weak if they are hit by a large number of these beams.

As for the other two Snake People, they were individual combat units. The Giant Serpent's tail suddenly opened, and two fully armed Snake People rushed out, carrying highly poisonous beam guns and wearing combat suits that protected against distortion forces.

The Snake People's attack caught everyone off guard. What was originally a two-way confrontation had now turned into a chaotic melee. The power of the Correctors was already prone to harming innocents, and now that it had turned into a melee, it was even more difficult to make a move. In that case, their own people would probably be wiped out before the Snake People were even dead.

The Correctors became somewhat hesitant and timid, their combat power reduced to less than half. The Daoists, on the other hand, were unaffected, unleashing a barrage of spells and magical artifacts. Any strike to the Snake People- Snake People crush its venom sacs, paralyzing it.

However, the Daoist's power was just a drop in the ocean. The Correctors were the main force in this war, but if the main force wanted to exert its strength, it had to kill the support first, making the battle very frustrating.

"Go!" A small red sword flew out from Han Mo's hand, instantly piercing through the Snake People's armor and killing him. The Snake People -Snake People's armor was excellent at protecting against the power of distortion, but it had no effect on the spiritual power that had mutated from the power of distortion.

The reason for this is that the power of distortion is too violent. Correctors use this power through their authority, and the power appears disordered. Daoists, on the other hand, refine this power with their spiritual roots before using it. The power is centered on the Daoist's spiritual will, so it will not be deviated from its path.

Seeing the dead Snake People, Han Mo quickly dissected the Snake People's body, collected all the important materials, and then retreated with the wind at his back. His keen senses had already detected that something was wrong. There were too many Snake People, and they were well-prepared. On the contrary, the Correctors on this side were fighting hesitantly, and there were various conflicts and sordid things between them. This war between humans and snake-men had only just begun, and it could already be declared that humanity had lost.

It is undeniable that humanity in the apocalypse is far too selfish. After the tide of war turned, the first human coalition was defeated, and large numbers of people retreated to the rear, including the Correctors.

The giant basalt Giant Serpent that had been activated moved again. The scales on its back opened once more, and countless giant flying Giant Serpent with bat wings soared into the sky, spraying venom downwards.

As soon as Han Mo's body came into contact with the venom, he felt weak all over. He immediately erected a spiritual energy shield around himself, and the mark on his hand also emitted a fiery sensation, which helped to remove the venom from his body. A small iron sword that he had polished himself reappeared in his hand. Excitation his fiery spiritual energy, turning the small iron sword red-hot, and then, under Han Mo's control, it flew out directly.

A Giant Serpent flying in the sky collapsed, and the Snake People inside did not immediately activate the escape device. Instead, they flew out like transparent snake eggs. At this moment, Han Mo understood why the Snake People did not release the flying Giant Serpent at the beginning of the battle. Although these flying Giant Serpent spewed a large amount of venom, they were also extremely fragile and would easily crash if attacked.

If someone could step forward and lead humanity in a counterattack, they might be able to repel the Snake People's offensive and buy humanity more time. But clearly, there is no such person, and Han Mo has no interest in such a person. Running away is what he should be doing now.

Thus, the first war between humans and snakes could be described as a complete defeat. Of course, that was from the perspective of humans. For the Snake People, it was a crushing victory. The Snake People, who had successfully captured the first fortress, did not let their guard down.

The colossal basalt Giant Serpent, as large as a mountain range, coiled up once more, transforming into a massive military base for receiving prisoners. The previous handling of the snake-like Secondary Infected had triggered a large -Secondary Infected, who had been in contact with Snake People spies, were now also here.

The high priest of the Snake People stood before a Big Black basalt altar. In front of the altar was a large fan-shaped plaza where the surrendered Secondary Infected were located, their faces somewhat uneasy. Behind them were a large number of prisoners whose movements were restricted, and many more prisoners were placed on the altar.

Without uttering many words, the Snake People high priest, also a Sleeper, uttered a sound like a serpent's cry, praising the glory of the great Father of Serpents. Then, he decisively ordered the execution of all the captives on the altar, their blood flowing across the altar.

Those Secondary Infected standing before the altar also felt a sense of shared sorrow, for they were originally human, even if they had become this grotesque creature.

The next moment, all the Snake People on the altar crawled to the ground, offering up everything they had. A huge orange-yellow sun appeared on the altar, casting a large amount of light towards the fan-shaped square.

The Secondary Infected at the forefront began to mutate, and new Snake People were born.
