“How come the ordinary people in the country don’t know about such a huge incident?”
“It’s top secret! Once something like this leaks out and is known by the ordinary people, it would cause panic, social unrest and make them lose their sense of happiness in their lives. If you think about it, ordinary people are powerless against those kinds of things. Even guns don’t work on them. They can only rely on cultivators, as well as those extraordinary people with advanced combat talents.”
“Are even the heavy-duty firearms useless?”
“I heard there were a lot of apprehensions about using the heavy artillery. There are many restrictions within the ancient force field. My dad said that the place has the rules of heaven and earth, so using heavy firearms will have a lot of great hidden dangers. Once the entire force field is destroyed, everything will really be done for.”
Having said this, she sighed. “Now the battle on the frontline is getting direr, even my aunt is seriously injured. God knows if those monsters will manage to come out from there. So, Alex, you have to be mentally prepared. The higher-ups will disclose the information whether the force field’s entrance can’t be defended, or they need to mobilize the entire country’s power.”
Alex’s expression was grave.
In the recent period, the strength of America had gradually become stronger, and the right to speak in the international community had also gradually increased. If something like that were to really happen, the first one to bear the brunt would be America. As for expecting help from other countries…
These words can only be thought about.
Many countries hoped that America would go downhill, fall and even disintegrate into thin air. If it wasn’t a hundred countries, then it was at least eighty countries, right?
However, in the very beginning, Alex had only wanted to ask Luna whether there were also skeleton armies in the ancient force field on the battlefield. It was because from the memory images that Old Whitey had shown him, Spiritual Valley City and other places at the time had only fallen into crisis and gotten destroyed after encountering the undead.
He was thinking whether or not the enemies inside the ancient force field were also undead. But from what he knew from Luna’s information, they weren’t undead, but a large number of monsters.

In the following period, they were relatively free.
Time flew. In the blink of an eye, a month had almost passed.
On that day, Old Whitey brought Alex to a secret place.
“Old Whitey, why have you brought me here?”
Clang!
As the mechanism opened, a stone entrance appeared in front of Alex.
The place was actually a huge treasure vault
