Chapter 176 Black Hand
"Fire!"
The first wave of frenzied attacks began. Artillery fire landed on the horde of monsters, blasting out a huge crater. The monsters went berserk, fleeing the area covered by the artillery fire and attacking from the left and right flanks.
"The left and right flanks prepare to engage the enemy; artillery fire extends forward."
"Why not deploy two cannons and fire at the left and right flanks?"
"No, listen to my orders. The main gun must be calibrated for each shot, ensuring that each crater is spaced one hundred feet apart. The artillery fire must extend forward twenty feet to the left and right of the main gun's trajectory. That's the order!"
He glanced at Zhong Ming, indicating that they could begin.
Zhong Ming gave the order.
"start to act."
They rushed out of the gate, pushing their wheelchairs forward at high speed. The first crater was not far away. The battle was extremely fierce from the start. They charged down from the pile of monster corpses and, supported by countless arrows and spells, charged forward recklessly.
Yue Kaishan, who was usually incredibly bold, was somewhat uneasy at this moment. "Brother Cuihong, do you think this can work? I think it's a bit too risky."
"What's there to be afraid of? We're just throwing our lives away!" Xuan Jing was extremely excited. He shouted loudly, howling into the wind, looking even wilder than a demonic beast, and throwing explosive talismans to both sides.
The bloodshed and carnage around him (in a physical sense) seemed to be just a melody playing as he advanced. As he watched the notes pass by one after another, all he felt was the boundless ambition to conquer the world.
"Be normal, is the travel talisman applied?"
"It's completely covered in talismans; the wheels are almost entirely wrapped in them."
They sped off at breakneck speed and, under cover of cover, quickly reached the edge of the first large, round crater.
Zhong Ming roared, "Suppress it, light it!"
The spiritual energy rushed into the acceleration tanks on both sides in an instant, and the powerful thrust burst out in an instant. The terrifying centrifugal force made their bones creak and made it difficult for them to breathe.
The vehicle sped along the pit wall with terrifying acceleration, "whoosh," and passed the bottom of the pit, tilting upwards as the slope became steeper and steeper. The thrusters emitted a mechanical groan, like a roar announcing its birth.
"Hold on tight! Akame!!!"
With a single shot, the red-eyed demon pierced through a tiger demon lying beside the tunnel. The gale-force wind continued to erupt after the arrow, completely slicing the tiger demon in two.
The wheelchair shot into the sky from between the two fleshy limbs, and the group of people flew up perfectly.
"Beware of flying monsters!"
Zhong Ming wielded the mother and child swords, slashing left and right. Yue Kaishan was even more violent, taking advantage of his terrifying flight speed to smash any enemy who dared to block his way with a single punch.
Red Eyes kept shooting arrows and turned nimbly, but it was Chen Dahai below who suffered.
The girl placed one foot on his thigh and the other on the back of his wheelchair, almost stepping on his shoulder. Chen Dahai was completely dumbfounded. After a few arrows, she turned around quickly, knelt on one knee on his leg, held the longbow horizontally, and aimed it at the enemy attacking from behind over his head. As a result, Chen Dahai was slapped several times by the "strong and powerful pectoral muscles".
It's so painful!
The wheelchair slowly descended, and a streak of light shot past its bottom—it was the next main cannon shell. Its terrifying power blasted a large crater where they were about to land.
When the shockwave shattered the internal organs of the surrounding monsters and blasted them all away, Xuanjing threw an explosive talisman forward, controlling it to explode in mid-air, and the resulting force weakened the shockwave.
The wheelchair carried everyone as it accelerated continuously, breaking through the shockwave and landing precisely on the wall of the new, large circular crater.
Another round of acceleration from the rounded bottom.
And so, they quickly moved away from the monster horde by leaping back and forth at high speed. During this time, Zhong Ming looked around countless times, trying to find any unusual gathering of monsters or any open areas, but to no avail.
Surely the entire group couldn't all be fleeing, all frantically trying to escape an even more powerful monster?
......
At this moment, on the rear defense line, atop the city wall, a handsome and elegant young man gently fanned himself with a feather fan and stepped onto the city wall.
He was the only recruit at the ninth level of Qi Refining. In terms of cultivation, he could have joined the army long ago, but in terms of combat experience, he had almost none.
So young, so powerful, there's only one reason: his exceptional talent and the strength of his family.
"Young Master Yan, isn't it about time?" A maid-like girl in plain clothes said timidly from the side.
"Hmm, go and organize the manpower, have the veterans organize the new recruits to advance quickly." Young Master Yan closed his feather fan, and while the maid turned around, he slapped her hard on the buttocks with the fan.
"Son~"
"Go quickly."
"Report!" No sooner had the maid left than a messenger arrived. Although Young Master Yan was not sitting in the command tent, he heard it clearly.
"The warehouse has sent its ninth distress call. They say if we don't send reinforcements soon, they'll be wiped out!"
Young Master Yan smiled, his lips moving slightly.
Inside the command tent, one of the men seemed to have heard something and immediately shouted to the others, "We can't wait any longer! I'll have another assault team organized. This team will do the same thing as the first one. The warehouse must not fall."
Seeing that this person had also spoken, the others echoed him and immediately ordered their troops to forcefully break through the battle line to reinforce him.
Before the words had even finished being spoken inside the command tent, Young Master Yan's men had already subtly assembled and were approaching this side in small squads.
When the maid returned, a considerable number of troops had already gathered around Young Master Yan.
"Let's set off immediately!" With those words, countless people rushed out to clear a path for him, a truly remarkable scene of overwhelming support.
"Young master is mighty."
"Little Huang, if you don't know how to compliment people, then don't compliment them. It will save me some energy. I really don't have time to lecture you."
"Young master is right." Without the slightest hesitation, the maid slapped herself twice across the face, the sound crisp and powerful.
"Alright, we're not with the family now, let's go. Let's check the time, it's enough."
Young Master Yan was under immense pressure. His family had instructed him that a sufficient number of deaths were necessary for the Myriad Souls Blood Jade Flower to evolve into its complete form, which was a crucial raw material for creating the Myriad Souls Banner... ah, I mean, the Human Emperor Banner.
Moreover, these are absolutely prohibited raw materials. If someone catches them, they will definitely be sentenced to death. The monster tide is the best cover. We must make sure the Myriad Souls Blood Jade Flower is full, and then let the monsters clean up all the corpses.
The commander in the command tent will cover for them, allowing the support troops to leave even more slowly. None of the people he brought will be able to return; they will all have to be fed to the monsters.
Only the dead can keep secrets.
After all, the family had gone to great lengths to trigger this monster tide, bribing so many supervisors who had entered the forest beforehand, and using top-grade monster-attracting powder and finely crafted monster-attracting pills—it was no small expense.
