Jun Changxiao started thinking wildly again.
This guy had an illness—if he didn’t think he had some extraordinary identity, he thought the System was created by his future self.
For such patients, the best approach was to not let those with diabetes come, fearing he’d taste sweetness.
“Shameless thief!”
Commander Yu said with a cold face and fury, “This commander will dismember you into ten thousand pieces!”
“Sorry.”
Jun Changxiao said, “You don’t have that ability.”
Commander Yu clearly didn’t plan to engage in a war of words with him. First, she adjusted her angry emotions, then waved her hand, saying coldly, “Half an hour. Take down Dation City.”
“Half an hour?”
Jun Changxiao almost laughed out loud, saying, “That confident?”
“Swoosh!”
“Swoosh!”
Just then, several tens of thousands of Flying Tiger Army soldiers had already begun moving. They didn’t adopt the most primitive charge tactics but quickly split up, with several dozen people forming groups, charging from different angles in orderly sequence.
“Interesting.”
Xue Rengui’s lips curved into a smile.
“Swoosh! Swoosh!”
The Eternal Sect disciples and Avengers once again summoned various firearms, standing at various points on the city wall, loading bullets and chambering rounds, just waiting for the enemy army to approach firing range.
The Flying Tiger Army had clearly already studied the previous failed siege situation. When the defending side entered combat readiness, the soldiers running at the front successively brought out specially-made shields from their spatial rings.
These shields were somewhat similar to Xiao Zuiji’s Flowing Light Shield.
Several people held them horizontally in front, interlocking them together, perfectly protecting their comrades behind.
Two words.
Professional!
Jun Changxiao sat on the city tower, his lips showing a smile.
The city defense was Xue Rengui’s responsibility. He was purely watching the excitement and… thinking of ways to capture that woman called Commander Yu, then strip her of her armor for his disciples to use.
“Whoosh whoosh!”
“Whoosh whoosh!”
Several tens of thousands of Flying Tiger Army soldiers advanced layer by layer. They were already very close to the city, and the killing aura permeating the battlefield grew increasingly intense.
“Fire!”
At this moment, Xue Rengui gave the order.
“Da da da!”
“Da da da!”
The Eternal Sect disciples and Avengers, who had long been ready, pulled their triggers one after another. The entire screen was filled with flowing light bullets, like a tide sweeping toward the several tens of thousands of enemy troops constantly pressing forward!
“Ding ding!”
“Ding ding!”
Round after round of bullets all hit the shields, bursting with sparks and crisp sounds, but they didn’t penetrate the defense—they merely pushed back the shield-holders a few steps.
“Swoosh!”
Seeing this, Xue Rengui immediately raised his hand.
Xiao Zuiji, who had been leaning against the cannon platform with his arms crossed, kicked the cannon barrel.
This move was extremely cool.
“Click!”
The barrel stopped with pinpoint accuracy at the enemy army’s charge zone outside the city, then with a “boom” was detonated. The cannonball, like a meteor, tore through space and drew a beautiful arc as it flew out.
Jun Changxiao closed his eyes and listened, saying, “Art comes from explosion.”
“Swoosh! Swoosh!”
Suddenly, soldiers flew out from the constantly charging enemy formation.
They quickly retrieved mirror-like supreme treasures from their spatial rings, then shone them at each other. In an instant, they formed interconnected beams of light, weaving a net across the sky, standing in the cannonball’s flight path.
“Hm?”
Jun Changxiao opened his eyes.
“Buzz—”
In just a blink, the cannonball arrived as scheduled. However, when it made contact with the flowing light, not only was it not detonated, but it was instead bounced back.
“This works too?”
Jun Changxiao’s face was filled with astonishment.
“Not good!”
Xiao Zuiji’s expression changed dramatically. He immediately jumped down from the cannon platform, activating the vein patterns on the back of his hand. His entire body instantly mechanized, and he held the Flowing Light Shield horizontally in front of him, shouting loudly: “Shield, rise!”
“Buzz!”
Text effects exploded, merging into the shield and causing it to rapidly expand, covering a sufficiently wide range.
“Boom!”
Just as the setup was completed, the rebounded cannonball directly struck it, transmitting the explosive art that Jun Changxiao had anticipated!
From a distant shot.
Near the city wall of Dation City, a mushroom cloud slowly rose. The entire heaven and earth seemed to shake with it, and even the defensive grand array surrounding the city was shaken into visibility.
From this, one could intuitively understand just how terrifying the power unleashed by the field artillery, after receiving even stronger energy, truly was.
“Damn!”
Jun Changxiao waved his hand to disperse the billowing smoke, his face showing an extremely wonderful expression.
“Hahaha!”
The System couldn’t help but laugh.
These firearms had always been used to bomb others, but this time they ended up bombing themselves instead. It was truly somewhat comical.
“Cough cough!”
From the explosion’s center, Xiao Zuiji’s coughing could be heard. The huge Flowing Light Shield still stood in front of him. Although it showed dense cracks, it hadn’t directly shattered.
It was neutralized!
However, the consequences were quite severe.
“Thud!” Xiao Zuiji could no longer hold on and half-knelt on the ground. The shield blocking in front of him shattered into flowing light, and even the mecha he wore began to show cracks.
Withstanding the field artillery bombardment had completely destroyed his defenses.
…
In a place filled with yellow sand, that slightly weathered figure suddenly stopped. The camera slowly panned over, gradually revealing a cold, stern face.
“What’s wrong?”
The woman beside him asked.
Although the environment was harsh, although wind and sand were everywhere, it couldn’t conceal her devastatingly beautiful appearance.
Perhaps due to maternal instinct, her right hand constantly rested on her abdomen, protecting the fetus.
That’s right.
She was Xie Lingyao.
The weathered man who suddenly stopped was naturally Ye Xingchen.
As this book’s second male lead, appearing in the camera again, although still as proud as ever, his eyes were already filled with warmth.
“…”
Ye Xingchen didn’t speak, but his heart ached faintly.
Seeing his face looked somewhat unwell, Xie Lingyao asked, “Not feeling well?”
“Swoosh!”
Suddenly, Ye Xingchen turned around and lifted her entire body, his gaze cold and stern as he said, “Return to the sect!”
When Xiao Zuiji bore the cannonball bombardment, when his entire defense was broken, the distant him in another dimension felt it. This was comradeship beyond friendship!
“Swoosh—”
Two figures disappeared into the sky filled with yellow sand.
…
“Wah!”
On the city tower of the Star Spirit Realm’s Dation City, Xiao Zuiji spat out a mouthful of blood. The mecha covering his entire body had shattered. Clearly, using his own power to withstand the cannonball bombardment had brought enormous damage to his body.
“Son of a bitch!”
Seeing his disciple injured, Jun Changxiao rose angrily, pointing at the constantly charging soldiers and roaring, “Kill them all!”
“Swoosh!”
“Swoosh!”
All the disciples put away their firearms one after another and brought out various weapons forged by Fan Yezi, flying directly down from the city wall.
If bullets couldn’t break through, then they’d resort to bayonets!
“Hmph.”
Seeing this, Commander Yu said coldly, “A bunch of idiots.”
As the defending side of the city, instead of properly choosing defense, they actually jumped out to fight with the attacking side. Their brains must have been waterlogged.
Very well.
This actually saved trouble.
“Change formation!”
Commander Yu had an entire set of plans for dealing with enemy charges.
However, before the soldiers at the front could prepare to change formation, an extremely strong cold current spread from the city wall position.
“Crack crack crack!”
“Crack crack crack!”
The cold current spread downward from the city wall, and wherever it passed, it gradually formed into ice.
“Swoosh!”
Lu Qianqian slid down and stood at the city gate.
“Holy crap!”
Su Xiaomo, who had been preparing to jump down from above, immediately stopped in her tracks, her eyes widening enormously.
Li Qingyang and the others were the same.
The Senior Sister had participated in battles before—was this really so shocking?
In fact, what shocked them wasn’t that Lu Qianqian had appeared, but that she had changed from her usual white flowing robes. At this moment, she wore pitch-black armor.
In everyone’s eyes, the Senior Sister was an ethereal fairy who didn’t partake of mortal food. Also, because she cultivated ice-type techniques, she had always been inseparable from the color white.
But today, suddenly changing outfits, and changing to the opposite color black—it was truly too sudden!
“Got to say.”
Jun Changxiao held his chin, saying, “All in black, her temperament is different.”
