Chapter 409 (1/2)
The gigantic s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p above the creep area was almost thousands meters long, and its bottom was covered with many big cannon-like tubes.
In the main control room of the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p, the warning sounds were beeping constantly and the warning signals were flas.h.i.+ng repeatedly.
“Arriving at the designated location. Performing damage check!”
“63.82 percent of the s.h.i.+p is damaged. Initializing emergency repair.”
“Two-thirds of the flying machines in our fleet were destroyed during the jump…”
…
In the center of the control room, behind a diamond-shaped control panel stood a middle-aged man who was dressed in a long slender combat suit. His cold and emotionless face had a distinctive shape as if it was carved out by a knife.
As he reached his hands out to press something in the thin air, a strange transparent screen suddenly popped up. Inside the screen, there was a human-shaped silhouette.
“Silhouette, how is the recovery of Jian Cheng Cannon?” The middle-aged man said coldly.
“The s.h.i.+p was built for ‘The Five Races’ war’ a long time ago. It’s too old. 70% of the main cannon is damaged. Although I have already used all the energy and technology in the base, It can only fire one shot!”
“One shot is more than enough!” The middle-aged man said coldly, and his right hand began to quickly operate something on the screen.
“Heaven’s messenger No.2. I have to remind you that if there is no new energy supply, we will fall into a period of energy crisis after firing the shot. It will put us in a very bad situation. Please reconsider it again.” The silhouette warned.
“Wait!” Behind the middle-aged man was a skinny man who dressed in different clothes than the rest of people in the control room. He suddenly asked. “Heaven’s messenger Duan, what is Jian Cheng Cannon! You never told me this!”
The middle-aged man didn’t turn around. He just said emotionlessly.
“The power of it is similar to the nuclear bombs that your people invented in the age of light. The difference is that your nuclear bombs are only useful in the three-dimensional world. But to the four-dimensional power and the fourth-dimensional protective equipment, they are not different than some big sparks. Do you know why your weapons are not effective in dealing with the insects? Because all you can attack is the three-dimensional part of their existence.”
As the man was about to press a b.u.t.ton, the skinny man frowned. He quickly stepped forward, grabbed the man’s arm and said. “No, I didn’t agree to this.”
The middle-aged man flung away the man’s hand and sneered.
“Your people have completed their tasks. The information they sent back is very valuable. I know you want that book. But tell me, apart from this method, how can you defeat the force of the ice race? Because of this, I have already lost more than 70% of my force. So I have to do it.”
“No!” The skinny man jumped forward, grabbed the man’s arm again and said. “There are more than five million people in Shu Du city, more than five million! If you fire it, people will hate our Chu Clan forever!”
The middle-aged man sneered. “So? A man with great ambitions does not bother about trifles. History is only written by the victor. Back in those days, billions of people have died, but who can remember how they died now? Compared to that number, five million is nothing!
Besides, Yao Zhong, you’re just a vice-master of Chu Clan. Unlike you, your master is not an irresolute and hesitant person.
Don’t you want the Chu clan’s techniques? Now is the best chance to attack. Once the ice race and Chu realized what we are going to do, they will spread out. We will lose our best opportunity to attack! So step aside or I’ll have my men to make you step aside!”
The skinny man hesitated for a second, but eventually, he moved aside.
The middle-aged man snorted and pressed the blue b.u.t.ton.
At the moment he pressed the blue b.u.t.ton, the skinny man staggered back and sat on the ground as if the b.u.t.ton had drained all his energy.
*******
“BZzzzzzzz….”
An extremely dazzling blue light suddenly shot towards Chu Yunsheng and the force of the ice race from the Sky above the creep area!
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”
Li’s calm face was replaced with shock and rage.
After the blue light was shot into the city, everyone in the city lost their hearing instantly.
“Silent….”
“Silent….”
“Silent….”
Chu Yunsheng’s armor was shattered instantly. Seeing the ground was shaking violently and many huge dust clouds were rising in the city, Chu Yunsheng still couldn’t hear anything as if the whole world went completely silent.
Many cars, concrete streets, even buildings were shattered and pulled up into the sky. The entire city had been shattered into pieces by blue ripples. However, as if Chu Yunsheng was completely deaf, he still couldn’t hear any sound.
The energy inside his body had completely lost its order, and as if all his organs had been crushed by something, all his blood vessels began to explode, and he began to bleed heavily.
Dark hugged Chu Yunsheng from behind and used its body to block the blue light for Chu Yunsheng. At the same time, it was desperately trying to fly outside of the attack range.
They flew past many bodies. All of their mouths were wide open, their eyes were filled with terror, their faces were twisted, and all of their bodies were bleeding heavily. All of them looked like they had died of extreme pain.
Blue lights were everywhere, and it was constantly destroying the city.
Time seemed to have stopped. It felt like a long time, or maybe it actually happened just within a split second.
Dark was knocked back into the monster seal talisman, Chu Yunsheng was pushed up into the air with all other debris, and bodies…
Then the blue light finally disappeared and the blue ripples also disappeared. The debris of the city began to fall onto the ruined ground like rains.
“Thump!”
Chu Yunsheng fell onto the ground, and then he heard the first sound after the blue light.
