The Lightning Pentagon Mines were located at Half-Ridge Mountain City.
Half-Ridge Mountain City was an important industrial city of the Andes Federation. It was not as dazzling and developed as Banlo City, but the whole city was like a pounding heart, pumping blood through the important arteries of the nation.
Half-Ridge Mountain City was around forty kilometers away from Banlo City, with a huge tropical river as a boundary line between them.
When the plane flew across the river, Mo Fan noticed that the river was as wide as a small strait. It was rare to see a river so wide.
Using the river as a boundary line, the areas toward Banlo City were mostly farms, woods, and green fields.
In contrast, the areas toward Half-Ridge Mountain City were mostly barren.. There was not much vegetation, and some areas were as dry as the Gobi.
Industrial areas were prone to pollution. Even the rain on one side had a different color than the other.
“It might seem like Half-Ridge Mountain City is full of factories, trucks, and ships, but the Andes Federation is planning to develop a port like Shanghai here in South America. They even plan to dig a channel through the Andes Mountain Range to reach the Pacific Ocean,” Zhu Meng claimed.
“That’s a lot of work,” Mo Fan observed.
“The Andes Mountains are a natural barrier that stops the sea monsters. If I’m guessing right, the cities along the coastline in South America will gradually move to the other side of the Andes,” Zhu Meng mused.
Mo Fan thought about that.
It was just as Zhu Meng had mentioned. The Andes Mountains were located along the shoreline, forming a natural dam. It did not matter how high the sea level rose, it would never make it through the Andes Mountains Range, which stretched out like an enormous dragon.
It explained why Chile, Peru, and other countries had decided to form an alliance and potentially move their cities to the other side of the Andes Mountains. It was the perfect plan to hide from the invasion of sea monsters.
China and Japan were on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, but the countries in South America did not have armies of the same size and strength as China and Japan. China was able to build a two-hundred-thousand-kilometers-long dam on its vast shoreline, while Japan was known for being an expert at fighting maritime battles.
The countries in South America did not stand a similar chance against the sea monsters. Seeing that so many cities had been trampled to the ground by the sea monsters, choosing to form a federation and move the cities to the other side of the Andes Mountains was the smartest option!
“We are here, it’s right ahead,” Zhu Meng pointed ahead.
Half-Ridge Mountain City was constructed on a slope. It felt like the buildings in the city were arranged in a star from afar.
The Lightning Pentagon Mine was the biggest mine in Half-Ridge Mountain City. A group of people in khaki military outfits came over as Zhu Meng’s helicopter landed on the helipad.
The pilot took off his helmet and studied the soldiers. “Councilman, something isn’t right…”
“I’m a Councilman from China, Zhu Meng!” Zhu Meng revealed his identity to the incoming soldiers.
A man with a yellow hat came up to Zhu Meng. “We are managing this place now,” the general declared.
“I’m here to see my niece. I have no interest in your business!” Zhu Meng remained fearless despite the pressure from the soldiers.
