Chapter 129: 85. Energy explosion again

Translator: 549690339

More than half an hour had passed since the elite squad broke through the watchtower.

Above the underground river, thousands of kilometers away from the Imperial Army.

The undead cargo ship, carrying the aura of death and decay, sails from the heartland of the Undead Cult.

They carry heavy cargo, like iron ploughs crossing the river surface, sweeping the filthy water to both banks.

The goods on the ship are extremely heavy, causing the river to rise noticeably where they pass.

These cargo ships are made of rotten wood and rusted nails, covered with dark green moss and greasy sludge, as if they have been sunken in the seabed for hundreds of years.

But these seemingly fragile ships have been sailing steadily for a long time with the creaking sound of the wood, without encountering any accidents like leaks, tilts, or anchors being thrown.

Without a doubt, it is the Death Runes that protect them.

On the decks and cabins of the cargo ship, there are a large number of dark imprints, which are the Undead Runes written by the Death Priests.

Undead spirits always enjoy using this blasphemous power to protect their magical devices and important facilities.

Today, they are doomed to fail.

Because, when these cargo ships are sailing, they cannot activate the Magic Protective Cover, otherwise the interaction between the river water and the magic of the cover will disrupt the ships’ navigation.

Another reason why the fleet is doomed today is that they are completely unaware of the crisis on the shore and in the river.

The ruins of the watchtower were pushed by the Imperial Army into the underground river, accumulating on the riverbed and forming obstacles that emerged from the water.

On the shores of the poisonous fog, ten full platoons were lurking.

They built temporary barricades with gray worm barriers and set up a fierce interception line, camouflaging themselves.

Within this line that merged with the riverbank, hundreds of large-caliber gun barrels pointed towards the floating wreckage on the river surface.

Noland Lee personally joined the interception mission and even got a light machine gun with a biochemical bullet head.

He wasn’t supposed to have this treatment.

But ever since realizing that the real use of the Deconstruction Technique is for team battles and last hitting, he boldly went to Lieutenant Slyke Thompson and bluntly asked for a light machine gun.

That was more or less what he said to Lieutenant Slyke Thompson:

“Chief Officer, I don’t know when I’ll die in the Death Storm. As an Imperial man, I dream of feeling the thrill of holding a light machine gun and shooting enemies in the roar of gunfire. Can you give me a light machine gun and assign me three Private Second Class soldiers to help me change the ammunition chain and water box?”

After pondering for a moment, Lieutenant Slyke Thompson agreed.

This might be a compromise made by Lieutenant Slyke Thompson after recognizing Noland Lee’s value.

Noland Lee didn’t think about it that much; his heart was only focused on how to make the last hit.

“Everyone, enter a silent state… our enemies are coming.” Lieutenant Slyke Thompson gave the order with gestures.

The Imperial Army fell silent.

All military barriers disguised as rocks remained quiet and still.
