Run Away, This Civilization Is Cheating!

Shen Hao naturally was unaware of the meeting on the Blood Demon's side.

However, the front line had indeed experienced some changes over the past two or three days.

The offensive of the Blood Demons had become even more ferocious.

They seemed to disregard any costs, not even minding the threat of nuclear weapons, gradually increasing their deployment of forces.

Some of the Blood Demon Subordinates even went to the front lines without weapons, directly thrown into several intense battlefields.

Over these two days, the opportunity to launch nuclear weapons had also exceeded twenty.

Since the start of the war, nearly seventy nuclear weapons, including ones with megaton-range yields, had been used, causing unprecedented destruction in human history.

"The Blood Demon can't hold on any longer!"

Not only did the top echelon of the Global United Front think so, even the propaganda directed at the civilians conveyed the same message.

"Now is the darkest hour just before the dawn!"

"Hold on, victory is coming soon!"

"This is the Blood Demon's final madness!"

"Listen, the cheers of victory have begun!"

"Ending the war, a new era awaits ahead for each of us!"

"Dawn is near!"

"..."

In such circumstances, whether it was the soldiers at the front or the people tirelessly engaged in industrial production and military logistics behind the lines, everyone was gritting their teeth, trying to endure through this most fierce and equally difficult period.

At least one thing was certain.

After ending this war, the world would enter an entirely new post-war era, where a variety of inconceivable technologies would dramatically transform people's lives!

And not just technology.

In domains not known to most, the research concerning the Extraordinary Path of Cultivation had yielded exciting results.

Though it's true that cultivation required consuming basic "Extraordinary Elements", such as "Spirit Stones" and "Demon Crystals" purchased from the Mall, compared to directly using cultivation resources to increase individual strength, it was still infinitely cheaper!

The path of cultivation for all people might still have its ups and downs, but it could already accommodate the cultivation needs of at least several million people!

You know, Shen Hao wasn't the only one with points; aside from him, most of the Chosen Ones had been participating in this Blood Demon war as well.

Their Points Mall Levels might be far inferior to Shen Hao's, but to buy items like Spirit Stones didn't require a high-level Points Mall, including some of the most basic cultivation resources used to assist in cultivation.

In other words, these massive but previously less useful points now played a significant role in the base foundation of the Extraordinary Path within the entire civilization.

This situation indeed excited some people tremendously, even more so than the average person, anticipating the world after victory.

However, the darkness before dawn is often the darkest time.

The Blood Demons' cost-ignorant deployment might truly be their final madness, but this madness also brought immense pressure to the soldiers on the frontline.

"Mad, truly mad!"

Major Paddy's sixth commander was bellowing in front of him.

"These Blood Demons have definitely gone mad; this charge has lasted for over fifty hours! At least five thousand, no! Seven thousand Blood Demons have targeted us here. Damn it, we are just a small defensive position! What good does it do them to capture this place at such a high cost? What in the world are they trying to accomplish?"

"What else can they do, Major? They are sending themselves to death," Paddy slowly blew out a ring of smoke, "Didn't you listen to the morning news? The Blood Demons know they're beaten. These low-level subordinates are just like clone soldiers; if not sent to the battlefield to be expended, what else? Are they going to hand over points to our Savior?"

The Major, looking at Paddy's nonchalant demeanor, twitched at the corner of his eye.

When he had arrived at this position and learned that there was a "new recruit" here who had been involved in the Hua Da Mountain campaign from the first day and had survived till now, he was utterly astonished.

In the biggest war meat grinder in human history, the survival number of the first batch of new recruits was even less than one percent!

Out of a hundred, only one person survived, and among those who survived, at least seventy percent were because they were injured and sent to the rear.

Those who still remained on the battlefield were one in three hundred!

And here was one of them.

The nickname "Lucky Paddy" was truly well-deserved.

But even more fatal, this guy had already lost five commanders!

An average of one dead every three days!

"Paddy, I must remind you," the Major gritted his teeth and said viciously, "you are already a Captain. If I am sacrificed, you will have to take over as Major!"

Paddy jolted, shouting in a panic, "Don't even think about it!"

The rest of the soldiers burst into hearty laughter.

Even on such an intense frontline battlefield, people's instincts drove them to seek anything that could alleviate tension and stress.

There is no doubt that in this position, Paddy is such a "thing".

Actually, Paddy's mindset had already changed.

Initially, he thought as long as he killed more than ten Blood Demons, he could die, but now he had killed more than thirty Blood Demons and didn't want to die anymore.

He wanted to live and go back to see that "new era" talked about in the news! Discover hidden tales at empire

"Everyone, we won against the Blood Demons wielding twenty guns, now facing these weaponless ones that can only flail their ugly tentacles, can we still lose?" Paddy stood up, yelled at everyone under the roar of cannon fire, "For humanity, for the new era!"

"For the new era!" everyone yelled together.

Even though a shell fell among a few people not far away and exploded in mid-air into a rain of blood, the soldiers had only to fight.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Situations like this were not uncommon on battlefields around the world.

Especially as a critical region in the war, the West State had seen a significant rise in casualties on its battlefields after they had initially begun to decrease significantly.

Even in some areas, the Blood Demons nearly broke through the defense lines several times, only to be barely held back by Shen Hao's emergency support, but even so, numerous Blood Demons successfully penetrated to the rear, causing considerable losses to some people in the cities.

It was only now that the main industries of the West State were continuously moving towards the East, preventing the impact from expanding to the logistical side of the war.

But even so, the war had indeed come to its most difficult time.

A large number of soldiers fell just before dawn.

During such times, Shen Hao had not even a moment to breathe.

He had even become accustomed to commuting back and forth on a fighter jet and could sleep even while accelerating under a twenty G load.

The mall had already officially reached White Level 12 a few days prior, and the accumulated points had now reached a whopping 1.4 billion!

However, although the products in the White Level 12 mall had been upgraded once again, the change they brought to the battlefield was not as pronounced as before.

After all, on the frontline battlefields, humanity's advantage was continuously expanding with a large number of newly produced weapons and equipment being deployed, leaving the Blood Demons with only their numerical advantage.

However, the tens of millions of Blood Demon Subordinates obtained from the southern region of the West State were mostly low-level and were rapidly being depleted now.

The remaining number was estimated to be less than twenty-five million.

As for the Northern Alliance, since it was closer to the East, the largest and most advanced military factory in the world, it received even more weapons support than the East and, combined with the fact that many powerful nations there were less damaged, the situation was actually better than that of the West State.

"The Blood Demons are in their death throes," Shen Xing gave the same opinion as the headquarters.

Perhaps some people see this as a turnaround against the odds, turning what seemed like a hopeless war into a successful victory, successfully preserving their civilization.

It was a great victory.

However, to Shen Hao, this development was nothing out of the ordinary.

Adding the first two cheats he had in the early stages, the number of cheats he used in this trial had reached a total of six.

Winning this war was only normal, really losing it, or even fighting evenly matched, would actually be abnormal.

But even so, out of the global population of seven billion, the number of casualties in this first trial had already exceeded a hundred million.

Even though nearly a hundred million of them were concentrated in the West State and Northern Alliance, it was still a massive catastrophe.

And this was just the first trial.

"I hope the cheers after the victory last a bit longer," Shen Hao thought to himself as he came to another battlefield, summoned lightning, and continuously attacked the Blood Demons on the battlefield.

He could even hear the cheers of the numerous human soldiers below.

Deafening, pervasive!

In this war, thunder had become his symbol.

Even common, ordinary thunderous weather would boost the morale of human soldiers and strike fear into the Blood Demons.

"Thunder God," "Universal Salvation Thunder Lord," "Thunder God," and many other titles were bestowed upon him.

His prestige and influence had grown markedly with each support mission, each battle victory.

Especially for the soldiers on the frontline.

Many had even discarded their crosses and carried propaganda images of Shen Hao, hoping for a bit of protection.

Indeed, multiple "heroes" had emerged in this war.

Including several of Shen Hao's teammates, especially those responsible for combat, each had their outstanding performances.

Liu Ruoxi even received the title "Blade Goddess," which spread from the frontline to the rear, becoming widely known in the West State.

Even among the ordinary soldiers, numerous "Combat Heroes" emerged.

However, Shen Hao was different.

His strength, his performance, his importance were simply too pronounced.

Already beyond the category of "hero."
