Where am I? It could be called paradise, or even a fairyland. At this moment, within this grand and enchanting fairyland sanctuary, a figure in white robes sits quietly. Behind him lie crystal-like objects the size of fists, and suddenly one of them shatters. He opens his eyes, which hold a profound clarity, vast as the starry sky, yet now veiled in ashes. He sighs, "Even I cannot change fate, can I?" He picks up the broken crystal and lightly scatters it, transforming it into a beautiful shower of fine sand.
"It's time to end this." Amidst the shimmering sand beauty, there is no one to appreciate it. He mutters to himself, then leaves the grand sanctuary.
Compared to enduring such pain, Barrett Walk would rather endure the torment of a boiling oil cauldron in the 18th layer of hell. He believes that compared to this, the oil cauldron in the 18th layer of hell is no different from a hot spring, where he can swim freely.
Pfft! Barrett Walk exhales deeply and stands up, looking at the chaotic mess around him, all caused by his own continuous writhing in pain, clearly indicating how intense it was. But after this excitement, he feels incredibly robust, even more powerful than the day he absorbed the golden radiance in the Dragon Scale Cave!
Looking at the pale body lying on the ground, now drenched by the rain, Barrett Walk thinks of the Thunder God's Hammer he took out, and quickly starts searching for it. He finds a book and a shrunken version of the Thunder God's Hammer. As the sky darkens, Barrett's exceptional vision allows him to read the words on the book, "Wind and Thunder Lightning." This must be how to control it! Barrett's heart fills with excitement at the thought of controlling lightning. How magnificent and powerful that would be!
Without hesitation, Barrett quickly tucks the ancient book into his chest, fearing it might be damaged by the irradiated rain. He soon realizes it is made of extremely soft material and completely water-resistant.
"I shouldn't hurry back to the inner courtyard yet! Otherwise, practicing this lightning control would be too terrifying." Barrett initially plans to return, but then rethinks. It's not that he's afraid of someone learning it, but if the base is constantly rumbling with thunder, the professors and experts won't be able to focus on their research.
After leaving a few words behind, Barrett quickly departs.
At this moment, the city of Wei Jing is under attack, and the Federation's response is unusually slow. This is the largest military base outside Wei Jing, connected to the military base under the War God Mountain, with a tunnel directly leading to the control room under the public parliament.
The War God sits solemnly, watching the people below, who seem lifeless. He slams the table hard and says, "Do you know? This is dereliction of duty, serious dereliction of duty. Whose responsibility is it? It's best to admit it now!" The War God forcefully suppresses his rage. He had foreseen the impending full-scale attack by alien monsters, which is why he had to sacrifice Morden Walk and take over urgently. However, he did not expect so many glaringly obvious flaws despite the preparations.

Looking at the silent generals and marshals below, the War God wants the responsible person to come forward. He says softly, "Didn't I already tell you to loosen the defenses? But you treated my words as if they were nothing. Look at the situation now. They have come directly from the sky and have already entered Wei Jing. What should we do? Should we just flatten Wei Jing with a single cannon, or charge in and fight them in the streets?"
"Most of you are my disciples, and some are my former comrades. I don't want to push you, but I gave you a chance earlier. Don't think I'm deceiving you. I know your characters very well!" Clearly, the War God Mas Walk is close to losing his patience. Suddenly, he slams the table hard, shattering it into pieces, then stands up and strides into the crowd. He grabs an old man and says angrily, "Mordos Noray! Do you think you're the emperor of the outermost ten satellite cities? Do you think humanity has no hope, so you can forget what you are? Why don't you go and die!"
After the War God Mas Walker spoke those words, the old man actually lost control of his bodily functions and passed out, his head slumped to the side. Few people dared to meet the gaze of the War God, so Mas Walker contemptuously left him on the ground and scanned the crowd with his tiger-like eyes, then walked toward a man in the corner.
This man is called Ewart Famer! And one of the Ten Satellite Cities is named after him. Mas Walker approached him, but he sat there calmly, not moving until Mas Walker reached his side. He straightened his military uniform and fastened the disciplinary button on his collar.
"You haven't fastened this disciplinary button for fifteen years." Mas Walker said calmly, smiling at him without saying anything.
"I have my own reasons. I only did what you didn't dare to do. You know that very well. It has nothing to do with the small-minded." Ewart Famer remained calm, as if the impending event was very ordinary.
"I know that you only made contact with him, but didn't let anyone in, so you are not guilty of death. You may leave!" The War God Mas Walker smiled faintly.
"Good! Good! With an old man like me out of the way, go all out! You have the spirit of a human, but you won't be the hope of humanity! If I don't die now, I will watch you fight!" Ewart Famer's old eyes sparkled with tears, and he embraced the War God, his body trembling violently. Wiping away the tears from his eyes, he said to the anxious Sadin Famer beside him, "Fight well for humanity. If you dare to have any complaints or flee in battle, you will not be a descendant of my family, Famer!"
"Yes, father! I understand." Sadin Famer, a real tough man, knew that the situation could not be salvaged. He saluted forcefully, restraining his grief and said, "Call me! Grand Marshal."
"Yes, Grand Marshal!"
A trace of sadness flashed in the eyes of the War God Mas Walker, all of this was for the sake of humanity! So he was destined to be alone. Facing the crowd, he said, "I don't care if any of you are still a rat's feces. This pot of soup must not be spoiled, because we are about to fight for the entire human race. If there is any retreat before the battle, military law will be enforced! All will be killed without mercy."
"At this time, the city of Weijing is about to become a ruin. We can rebuild the houses, but without the people, we have nothing. Therefore, I declare that the entire army should abandon everything and march into Weijing City. As for street fighting, those who should be more afraid are them." The War God Mas Walker made all the arrangements, and then announced loudly. The army that had been brought into the city by Morton Walker did not leave at all. Now, with the War God's command, they all began to counterattack, sounding the horn of a major counteroffensive.
