Ten days later, Tang Haofei returned from the Deep Blue Empire.
Not only did he bring back a more terrifying strength, but he also brought back the sincerity of the oceanic tribe—five days later, the oceanic tribe’s reinforcements would officially launch an attack, marking the beginning of the first joint operation between the human race and the oceanic tribe.
Unbeknownst to him, the high-level officials gathered in Beijing were currently in a state of turmoil. After handing over power to Wen Yu, Tang Haofei hurriedly began drafting the joint operation plan.
Tang Haofei now had a new identity—the commander-in-chief of this joint operation...
One could only wonder how Tang Haofei gained the trust of the oceanic tribe...
Of course, Tang Haofei's return had a certain impact on Wen Yu as well—he was originally a temporary "guardian," and now that the main figure had returned, Wen Yu no longer needed to fulfill that role.
To sum up Wen Yu's current state in one sentence—freedom!
With no constraints and no superiors issuing orders, and due to recent work issues and his current relationship with the military, he could freely enter and exit the various defensive zones of the city walls. Wen Yu believed that without a position, he was even freer.
Thus, Wen Yu's daily monster-slaying routine truly began.
Every day, he took the same aimless Qin Tian, Arthur, and Wang Fu Cai in and out of the city gates, slaughtering waves of demonic creatures.
For the military, Wen Yu's actions were a relief to the pressure on the defense lines, and they were quite pleased.
As for Yang Hong, he was still fiddling around in the Three Skull Society, but Wen Yu didn’t inquire about it—he really looked down on the strength of the Three Skull Society, but based on Yang Hong's replies, it seemed they were doing reasonably well.
...
Five days later.
Tianjin, a major city that once ranked among the top in Huaxia before the apocalypse, had now become desolate and broken...
Due to its proximity to Beijing, Tianjin was not included in the major gathering places established by Lin Haifeng, and with the survivors of Tianjin having mostly been absorbed by Beijing, the once vast steel city had become lifeless.
However, this situation changed after the Demon Realm Gate was opened.
Dozens of Demon Realm Gates firmly surrounded Beijing, trapping it. Due to the overwhelming number of demonic creatures, the battle lines were stretched too thin, and Tianjin had now become the rear base for the demonic clan's attacks on Beijing—the command center for the demonic clan's assault was established here...
Of course, today's protagonists were not the demonic creatures.
...
On Earth, oceans account for about seventy percent of the planet's total area, while land accounts for thirty percent; this is a ratio known to everyone.
However, there is one difference between the ocean and land: the living environment of creatures in the ocean presents a three-dimensional distribution, unlike land, which is only a flat plane. This leads to the number of marine creatures far exceeding that of terrestrial organisms.
Moreover, the distribution of the Demon Realm Gates is based on land area, while the ocean has only the seabed as the fertile ground for the Demon Realm Gates, making the survival environments of the oceanic tribe and the human race increasingly distinct.
In less than a month, the oceanic tribe had already defeated the demonic clan's vanguard!
Without the demonic clan, there would be no evolution nutrients, and since their living environment did not conflict with that of the human race, these factors prompted the Sea King to decide to ally with humanity.
Not long ago, Tang Haofei had completed the prerequisites for the alliance between the two races—helping the Sea King explore that unknown area.
Now, it was time for the oceanic tribe to contribute.
...
Bohai Sea.
This body of water is less than 200 kilometers away from the Beijing gathering place.
The dark blue sea continuously churned with waves and froth, while scattered demonic warriors patrolled the coastline, moving back and forth along the shore.
