My Monster Fuses Everything-Chapter 647 - 419: Open the Path
Chapter 647 -419: Open the Path
The coastal defense line did not have a ready-made metropolis like Guanhai City. After suffering from Sea Beast attacks and flooding, the defense line now only consists of high mountain range walls.
Cliffshore Mountain will be the site for building the new city. The Infrastructure Corps has already set out toward that destination and has commenced work, operating a large number of Black Rock Tree Monsters.
The Xuan Turtle Ancestral Tree and the Black Rock Bull Demon are also harnessing the power of rocks and soil, raising immense constructs from the ground around Cliffshore Mountain to build a gigantic rough cast of Rock City.
The huge Rock City, though merely a rough cast with approximate areas demarcated, required further detailed transformation. Zhang Dahai and Nong Yun needed to spend more time on the arrangement.
But all of these efforts were worthwhile because the strength of this Rock City was far superior to that of a typical city. Within the solid rock mass, not only was the material itself highly strengthened and compressed, but a hint of the Power of Rules from the Xuan Turtle Ancestral Tree was also integrated, thereby significantly enhancing the overall defensive strength.
If it were before the apocalypse, the strength of these walls and roads would be nearly capable of withstanding a nuclear explosion.
The strength of some special structures would only be more formidable since, in concept, Rock City of Cliffshore Mountain was to become a key stronghold of the coastal defense line.
Liu Rulong arrived on schedule with the list of martyrs—their names, ethnicities, hometowns… all recorded on a few thin pages.
He held the record in his hands, yet the feeling was heavier than holding a thousand kilograms weight.
In the apocalypse, death was all too common, but they all sacrificed themselves to protect other survivors.
“They’re all here now. The metal materials, Lamp Trees have also been transported to the top of Cliffshore Mountain,” said Liu Rulong, his voice somewhat low. He continued, “We plan to establish three major cities along the coastal line, supporting the Worm Nest Territory and the Moon’s Nest to expand slowly into the deep sea. We can’t eliminate the Abyssal Insect Race in one fell swoop, so we can only gradually compress their space… or rather, expand our living space.”
He paused for a moment before relaying the current plan to Su Han. Humans were no longer the sole dominators as before the apocalypse. Rather than compressing the space of the Abyssal Insect Race, the idea was to use the proliferating swarms, roaming to set up a quarantine zone.
“I’ll arrange for the Moon’s Nest to cooperate. As for the location of the Worm Nest Territory, you guys will set it up. As for who will command the swarms…”
Su Han did not finish speaking, but Liu Rulong understood his meaning—the command would be undertaken by Insect Warriors.
As the monsters grew increasingly ferocious and wars erupted more frequently, the number of injured and disabled among the human warriors also grew.

With all sorts of bizarre injuries, damage to Apostles causing mental traumas and more, they weren’t issues simple treatment could resolve, and thus the number of personnel in the Insect Warrior Troops continued to increase.
The silence between the two was not due to the lack of commanders, but rather because the number of people was still increasing.
“As for commanding the Insect Warriors, I have several subordinates with good command abilities, it’s just that they’ve all been injured by those bugs. By my estimate, they should be getting used to their new insect limbs soon,” said Liu Rulong after a slight pause, then spoke again, “About the path of the Insect God General and Stellar Torch Guardian, do you have plans for when it will be opened up?”
Su Han frowned slightly, then said, “You pick the candidates, judging their mental strength and willpower, then choose those who are capable of breaking through to Fifth-Order. Remember to control the proportion. When the time comes, I will create a special tree, a Star Torch Tree including rules, and use that as the breakthrough site…”
“Not just Fifth-Order, I mean opening it up to Second Order and even Third Order warriors,” Liu Rulong said with a serious expression. Su Han looked at him, noting his gaze had become extremely firm.
“While this path can be taken, once you go down it, there’s no turning back. And the power of multiple Apostles is different from that of a single individual,” said Liu Rulong, shaking his head slightly. “Ten Second Orders might not be able to defeat a Third Order. A Second Order Contractor has only two Apostles, a Third Order Contractor three. Any more are just cannon fodder. I know what you’re thinking. A Second Order Contractor breaking through to Third Order would get three Third Order Apostles, Fourth Order would get four Fourth Order Apostles, Fifth-Order, Sixth Order… The strong get stronger, resulting in a qualitative change, but there aren’t many people who are as talented as you.”
He sighed. Su Han was taken aback; Liu Rulong, the old fox, had seen too much and immediately saw through the fallacy in Su Han’s thinking.
Indeed, just like on Su Han’s side, if he made a breakthrough, using the connection between the Apostles to feed back to each other, he could quickly form the power of six Sixth Order Apostles.
But could an ordinary person do the same?
Absolutely not.
Any carelessness could lead to their death on the battlefield. The difference in strength between Second and Third Order was stark.
They, including Liu Rulong, didn’t even dare to hope they could live to break through Fifth-Order, let alone further.
Even though Liu Rulong was already Fourth Order Superior, just a step away.
“I understand. Second Order and Third Order can also apply, but be mindful of the assessments,” Su Han conceded.
Liu Rulong nodded without saying anything further. He knew the assessments had to be strict; indeed, only those ordinary warriors who considered themselves “cannon fodder” were the most suitable candidates for this path.
This was an opportunity, and a responsibility too.
After speaking with Su Han, Liu Rulong hurried off to arrange other matters. He was able to discuss this with Su Han not only because he had pondered over the issue. More so, too many soldiers and officers who did not wish to transfer to logistics but were eager for battle had communicated with him—they longed for combat, even if it meant dying on the battlefield.
