Swallowed Star - Chapter 139 Laser Cannon
âPhone call from the chairman?â Li Yaoâs face changed too.
Even though he was one of the most powerful people in the circle of wargods, he is on a completely different level when compared to the head of the entire HR alliance.
The chairman is the emperor of the underground world!
âYou come hereâ Venina dragged Li Yao far away and lowered her voice as she said seriously, âThe chairman just called to warn us not to touch Luo Fengâs family. If that happensâŠ.. our Paulinus family will receive a sanction from the entire alliance!â
âWhat?â Li Yao frowned, âImpossible. Your Paulinus family is also one of the core families of the alliance. Even though heâs the chairman, he has to gather a meeting and go through a discussion to get the entire alliance to punish one of the core families. Just a phrase from him canât cause this much to happenâ
Venina lowered her voice: âWhich means that the chairman believes that if the assembly is convened, theyâll definitely be able to pass this decisionâ
Li Yao was shocked.
He understood nowâŠâŠ
Only the two most powerful fighters âHongâ and âThunder Godâ can cause the entire HR alliance to shake with one phrase. And the one sticking out for Luo Feng is probably Hong!
âBastard!â
âFucking bullshit luckâ cursed Li Yao. He wanted to slice Luo Feng into thousands of pieces. Initially, he wanted to unleash his anger onto Luo Fengâs entire family, but clearlyâŠâŠ after Hong gave his words, the HR alliance would probably send people to protect Luo Fengâs family before Hong can even send his own people.
Now, Li Yao has no way to send anyone.
âHmph, since the head, Hong, is interfering, Iâll let his family off the hookâ sneered LI Yao, âHong knows about this and yet isnât stopping me from getting Luo FengâŠ.. he probably wants to use me as a tool to train Luo Fengâ Li Yao was also a man with a lot of power, so it was easy for him to guess Hongâs way of thinking.
âTrain? Hmph, if this training fails, itâll end in Luo Fengâs deathâ
Li Yaoâs gaze was cold, âVenina, you stay here in Paris headquarter city. Weâll contact each other by phoneâ
âOkayâ Venina nodded.

On the passenger plane.
This passenger plane left Paris headquarter city at 11:45 AM and was headed towards the continent of Australia. There were only around 60 passengers on the plane. These 60 people are the people that Li Yao has gathered to bring with him. Within this group were also professionals to assemble and use the laser cannon.
âWhat, Mr. Li, is this a laser cannon in here?â the yellow skinned man was shocked.
âOh, Lordâ
The other two white men were freaked out.
âThe laser cannon is a banned weaponâ said one of the large moustached white man, âThe world alliance bans the transportation of laser cannons and nuclear weaponsâ
âTheyâre banned, but arenât people still transporting them?â
Li Yao said with disregard, âEvery year, laser cannons and nuclear missiles are transported from smaller headquarter cities! The world alliance can only pretend to ignore such things. Furthermore, the world alliance is comprised of the five powerful countries. All the power is in the hands of the five powerful countries; the world alliance is just their puppetâ
The three wargods beside him couldnât help but to laugh.
The laser cannon and the nuclear missile are the two ultimate weapons of humanity!
The nuclear missile has a large blast radius and is extremely powerful. Its only downside is that it emits large amounts of radiation, which can trigger mutations in monsters.
The laser cannon attacks a single target and is comparable to a âdeath rayâ. As of now, itâs humanityâs favorite weapon.
âMr. Li, you sure have tricks up your sleeve. Iâm impressedâ the yellow skinned man snickered, âIf I want to buy this laser cannon, I wonder if Mr. Li has any way to get another one?â
âThat wonât doâ
Li Yao shook his head, âAfter I use this laser cannon, Iâm going to put it back! If it goes missing for too long, then theyâll find out. When that happens, Iâll be in trouble. Bei Hou GangâŠâŠ shouldnât you Japanese people have some connections to get a laser cannon?â
Japan, an economic power before the Grand Nirvana period.
Sadly, they were an island country. They hunted down too many large fish like sharksâŠ.. after the Grand Nirvana period, all the monsters mutated. Large fish like sharks became extremely powerful after mutating. There were quite a few horde leader monsters in the sea, and even some emperor level monsters! Horde leader and emperor level monsters have an intelligence level comparable to a humanâs.
So they had their revenge!
They gathered up and surrounded the Japanese archipelago!
Defending an island was already quite troublesome. The endless waves of monsters ripped apart the land as they flowed in through the rivers and coordinated with the flying monsters in the air to deliver pincer attacks⊠when faced with that and the arrival of an Emperor level monster, the Japanese could only struggle. They couldnât defend against the attack at all and all the citizens were only thinking about how to escape!
At the start of the Grand Nirvana period, the monsters didnât mutate too much and most of the people with authority already escaped. Even though there were only a few hundred thousand people left in the end, Japan can now count as a small nation after a few dozen years of rest.
âThose connections are too expensiveâ Bei Yuan Gang said seriously, âMr. Li, if you are able to get me a laser cannon, Iâm willing to pay 20x the cost!â
â20 times?â Li Yaoâs eyebrow rose.
The laser cannon was extremely costly to make and, because of some special features, money usually isnât enough to get one.
âIâm tempted but, sadly, I donât have the abilityâ
âŠ..
The passenger plane entered the continent of Australia.
However, Li Yao left the passenger compartment and headed towards the bathroom alone.
âHello, Veninaâ Li Yao contacted Venina, âWhereâs Luo Feng right now?â
The HR alliance could track a fighterâs position via their tactical communications watch.
âCanât confirmâ a slightly anxious voice carried from the tactical communications watch, âIâm trying to think of another wayâ
âWhat do you mean canât confirm?â Li Yaoâs face changed.
The HR alliance could confirm positions through the tactical communication watch.
Back thenâŠ..
They used this method to track all the fighters surrounding Li Weiâs corpse.
âThe position his tactical communications watch is returning is the elite training camp!â Veninaâs voice was restless.
âThe elite training camp? No, heâs in the continent of Australiaâ Li Yao was confused.
âOf course itâs not right. This meansâŠ.. that Luo Feng changed tactical communication watches!â The voice coming from the tactical communications watch was very soft, âHe left his other tactical communications watch in the training camp. As for the one heâs using right now, thereâs no record of it in the HR alliance!â
This was indeed what had happened.
On the first of August, Luo Feng received an enormous reward for raising his battle ability amplifier to 12. The reward contained a battle uniform set, weapons, binoculars, a tactical communications watch, and many other various little gadgets. Luo Feng changed to the new tactical communications watch, which was produced by the Dojo of Limits; only people of high authority could wear them.
Since the HR alliance didnât make it, there were no loopholes: there obviously wouldnât be any record of it in the HR allianceâs records.
âThe tactical communications watch that Luo Feng is currently using was probably created by the Dojo of Limits, so we canât track itâ said Venina.
âThen whatâre we going to do?â Li Yao was extremely anxious.
If he couldnât locate Luo Feng, then searching for someone in the continent of Australia is like searching for a needle in a haystack.
âThereâs only one way now: call Luo Fengâs tactical communications watch! Once the call goes through, we can track his positionâ said Venina. This was nothing out of the ordinary; all regular phones had this function. Once you call someoneâs number, youâll be able to confirm their position whether or not they accept your call.
âThen call himâ followed Li Yao.
âButâheâs using a new tactical communications watch, so I havenât found his number yetâ said Venina helplessly.
If she doesnât know his number, how will she make the call?
Truth be told, Luo Feng just got his new tactical communications watch on August 1st. The only people who know his number are his friends from China in the elite training camp.
âSearch, his number must be foundâ Li Yao was anxious.
âHe just changed his tactical communications watch, so very few people know his number. Some of his friends in the training camp probably know. The elite training camp itself probably has the means to contact him tooâ Venina said helplessly, âBut, thereâs no way I can sneak into the insides of the Dojo of Limitsâ
âHurry and find it! The plane is about to land soon. We canât just fight against monsters while carrying all these boxes can we? Once we encounter a horde and the delicate parts of the laser cannon get damaged just a bit, the entire laser cannon will fail to operateâ said Li Yao urgently, âHurry up and confirm Luo Fengâs position!â
âOkay, Iâll let Candace try againâ
After hanging up.
When Li Yao returned, the rest of the people in the passenger compartment were quite relaxed.
âKleinâ said Li Yao to a white middle-aged man, âIf we carry these boxes around a few hundred km on land, will they be okay?â
Klein respectfully responded: âMr. Li, even though all the parts are properly protected in each box, normal impacts will not cause a problem. HoweverâŠ.. this an extremely delicate optical amplification weapon. Once a single part is damaged, the entire laser cannon might not be able to function, so we cannot risk thisâ
Li Yao couldnât help but to clench his teeth.
He was in a rush!
âWhatâs the range on this laser cannon?â asked Li Yao again.
âThere is not an exact answer for the rangeâ said Klein seriously, âEven though the laser cannon is the ultimate weapon, it has its weaknessesâŠ.. First, it shoots in a straight line! But the earth is a spheroid, so the surface of the earth isnât perfectly flat, but curved!â
âSo if the target is so far that we canât see it from the ground, then the laser cannon naturally wouldnât be able to hit it!â
âSo the laser cannon must be placed on high ground to increase its range!â
âOf course, the target is a spirit reader. If he flies up into the air, we will be able to see him from a faraway distance. If nothing is obstructing the path between the laser cannon and the target, then the target will be destroyed instantlyâ smiled Klein, âThere is no need to worry about the power of the laser cannon. Now, the hard part will be making him fly up into the airâ
âIf he is on the ground, then once he is a bit far, we will not be able to attack himâ said Klein, âAlsoâŠâŠ pay attention to the weather. If there is a lot of mist or rain, the laser cannon will not be able to attackâ
âThe laser cannon focuses light, and the particles in the rain and mist will cause light to refract, which would greatly reduce its power.
ââSoâŠ..â
âThe laser cannon has to be placed on high ground near the target! That way, it will be easier to find a chance to kill the targetâ said Klein.
Li Yao nodded.
He knew thatâŠ.. but he doesnât even know where Luo Feng is right now, so where is the plane going to land?
