Chapter 3, Invasion of the Beasts

However, by the end of this year, a beast tide on the opposite side caused the encirclement of the spatial gate to completely lose control, with a large number of powerful and new types of异兽 (exotic beasts) passing through the spatial gate and frantically attacking the soldiers surrounding the defense perimeter

The twenty-first to twenty-fifth levels are referred to as the Celestial Domain

What should be done about this

Now, countries are in a frenzy. Those without spatial gateways are shouting loudly, unaware of what has transpired, only harboring vague suspicions. This is because nations have sealed off information, remaining tight-lipped about the matter, preparing to quietly amass wealth.

In the face of aging, the genes of ordinary humans are fundamentally unable to resist

Twenty-one gates to space will appear globally, all located in areas with relatively few human inhabitants

At that time, Lin Shan was still a lieutenant colonel. Through gradual cultivation, he eventually reached the level of the Celestial Domain, becoming one of the nine great powerhouses of the Celestial Domain in Huaxia, a leader among humanity, holding a position of high authority and influence

Once back on Earth, countries were no longer as cautious as they had been on the Beast Planet; various large weapons were unleashed, creating a situation where they were evenly matched with the alien beasts

They originally thought it would continue like this

The secondary task is to eliminate some of the more powerful exotic beasts

Before his death, as a friend of many years, Lin Shan visited him in the hospital. At this time, Qi Rui had already enjoyed the blessings of many descendants. However, in the face of a crisis sweeping across humanity, half of his descendants had gone to the battlefield of the Beast Star, with some dead and others injured

Remote attack on alien beasts

Ten kilometers per layer

Two hundred years later

Qi Rui was also raised by his grandparents, who are still alive, while his parents work outside. Upon hearing Qi Rui's consolation, Lin Shan rolled his eyes dramatically.

As a result, governments around the world were in an uproar, immediately sealing off information and entering a state of emergency. After extensive discussions and large-scale investigations among the countries, it was only two months after the appearance of the spatial portal, specifically on October 20, that the number of spatial portals was confirmed

Among them, the Huaxia nation has the most, with as many as 5.

This evolution is not universal; it is not a virus that can cause mutations in humans. Rather, it requires continuous cultivation to strengthen the physical body, utilizing the flesh of extraordinary beasts and certain plant extracts from beast stars to achieve the goal of enhancing the body and continually surpassing human limits

Flying Beasts

One by one, they appeared

Ordinary people, after walking a few steps, would be out of breath, let alone running. Since the portal does not restrict back and forth movement, this news was relayed back by the daredevil squad

From one to ten levels, there are no individual names, they are simply referred to as one, two, three, four, ... up to ten levels of martial artists

Three human city circles stationed on Beast Star, with two serving as theater commanders for the front-line positions on Beast Star, Lin Shan is one of them. His primary task is to command operations. Two hundred years is sufficient to transform someone who knows nothing into a military expert, not to mention that he has also obtained a Doctor's degree in Command from the Earth United Forces Academy

Before his rebirth, Lin Shan was a Tier 22 Celestial Domain powerhouse. At that time, there were only thirty Celestial Domain powerhouses in the entire world, and with him, there were only nine Celestial Domain powerhouses in Huaxia.

At that time, Qi Rui, whose face was full of wrinkles and appeared aged, looked at Lin Shan, who merely resembled a middle-aged man. They conversed extensively, and in the end, Qi Rui simply said: "If I could choose again, I would also want to take your path, for I would have no regrets in death"

The gravity is very strong, twice that of the Earth

After more than a month of fierce battles, by the end of January next year, various countries managed to withstand the relentless onslaught of the alien beasts. However, they also recognized that being too close was unsafe, so they established a massive three-layered defense perimeter within a radius of thirty kilometers around the spatial gate

In his previous life, Lin Shan, a high-ranking general among humans, was about to be promoted to the rank of Major General in the Earth Federation. One more promotion would elevate him to the highest military rank of the Earth Federation—General. There were only a few who could pat him on the shoulder, so being patted by Qi Rui now felt somewhat strange.

The Space Gate began very small, only capable of accommodating tiny creatures to enter and exit. However, over time, for reasons unknown, the Space Gate gradually expanded. Consequently, an increasing number of large exotic beasts began to appear in people's sight. It can be said that about a month after the emergence of the Space Gate, as new species that could cause harm continued to appear, humanity slowly became aware of the existence of the Space Gate

What it brings is not only destruction, but also an opportunity for human evolution

Spread across all continents of the world, even the North and South Poles, some people even doubted whether there were any in the sea. After much commotion, it was not until ten years later that humanity confirmed that there are indeed only twenty-one spatial gateways.

After that, Qi Rui permanently closed his eyes

Qi Rui continued to engage in business, gradually growing stronger and larger. With the assistance of Lin Shan, his assets reached over 1 billion RMB. However, as Qi Rui was an ordinary person, he passed away at the age of 113 due to aging and illness

This enormous figure was placed directly before the leaders of various countries

This is a brand new planet

A total of twenty-one spatial gates, each requiring one hundred and fifty thousand personnel for defense, would necessitate the mobilization of at least thirty million troops globally to fend off the otherworldly beasts. This figure pertains solely to the frontline positions; the logistics and reserves would undoubtedly require a number not less than this.

At the beginning, the five spatial gates were regarded as resources by various countries, each envious of the others. They began to eliminate the otherworldly beasts and explore the otherworlds of their respective nations

That amounts to over 60 million in military personnel, which is more than the total number of active and reserve forces of all countries in the world combined

A sentence

Major countries around the world are in a state of panic

The equipment that was simply thrown over immediately lost its signal, and even when connected by a wire, it could not receive any information from the other side. After much discussion, a daring team was directly dispatched, and at that moment, they seemed to have discovered a new continent.

Random

A total of twenty-one

To this end, various countries began to recruit soldiers frantically, and countless passionate young men joined the ranks to resist the alien beasts. Lin Shan was one of the soldiers who joined this group.

Lin Shan later embarked on a military career

Even when spoken by a peer like Qi Rui, it loses some of its charm

Under the conditions where satellites cannot be launched, countless exotic beasts roam, existing electronic devices have failed, and nuclear weapons, including clean nuclear weapons, cannot be recklessly used, Lin Shan has personally ventured into the boundless beast star forest many times to scout the situation, enduring numerous life-and-death experiences before reaching such heights

At the beginning, they encountered only ordinary exotic beasts, which, under the assault of firearms, were not to be taken lightly, yet did not pose a significant threat. This inevitably led to a sense of contempt among various nations, as they believed these exotic beasts were merely that—just wild animals.

The number of soldiers surrounding each space gate has increased to a staggering 1,500,000, which means that in order to guard the space gates, Huaxia has deployed over 7,500,000 troops, and the reserves are simply insufficient

Countries with the 'Gateway of Space' have begun their journey to explore new worlds

For the future of humanity, over the past century, humanity has sacrificed too much and lost too much

Among them, there are four stationed on Earth, serving as instructors at a military academy

August 19, three months later

The battlefield has been pushed back to Earth

However, as time passed, within just a week, the number of alien creatures appearing on the other side of the spatial gate increased, and they grew stronger. Gradually, it became somewhat challenging to fight them. Large weapons could not be used for fear of attracting more alien beasts, and ultimately, the only option was to retreat back to Earth and establish a defensive perimeter

Invasion of the异兽

From the eleventh to the twentieth rank, they are referred to as Earth Masters

In an instant, this 'hot commodity' was equivalent to being placed next to a death lock, creating immense pressure

Looking at Qi Rui's chubby little face, Lin Shan thought of Qi Rui's future life

No matter how profound it is

According to the classification before his rebirth, strength is divided into twenty-five tiers

Even with the special refined medications derived from exotic beasts and beast stars, it is only possible to cure most diseases. However, with the invasion of exotic beasts and the rapid advancement of technology on Earth, the mutation of virus resistance has led to the emergence of various new diseases. The complete eradication of diseases remains an unattainable dream even two hundred years from now

Through continuous updates, the Earth Federation has formed a stable division of power. This is inevitable, as individual humans have become increasingly powerful, reaching new heights without a path laid by predecessors. The limits of the Earth Federation's imagination have also been constrained, necessitating a gradual refinement of the hierarchy.

This campaign

The total number of soldiers lost by various countries exceeds 500,000, leaving those countries that were trying to find a way to return to the other side utterly dumbfounded. This is a significant problem, and they can only frantically increase their troop numbers, again and again.
