Chapter 947 (2/2)

The Blood Wardens by then had already drew their blades to kill the intruders and as they saw Wuyue transformed out of reflex they were startled. Someone amongst the Wardens shouted. “A witch! A witch! Sound the alarm!”

Lily swiftly picked up a stray brick on the ground and slammed it into the warden’s face before sending another flying with a powerful kick. As she danced about in her furious assault she mumbled to herself. “Stay your hand… do not kill… stay your hand… do not kill…”

Hao Ren spun his spear about to deflect two oncoming sword strikes as he struck his way out of the surrounding wardens and dashed towards the metal gate. At the same time, the alarms rang.

Lights immediately lit up all across the royal city and many other Blood wardens came dashing out of their camps. All the shoulders were massive hulks with pale skin and popped veins without any torso protection. They raised their blades high as they charged at Hao Ren like enraged beasts. Some of the warriors had visible hot air around them. The radiation sickness had left their body temperature higher than normal, and even in chilly weather before the onset of winter did not faze them. Such a scene where a group of half-naked men doing a berserker charge in the chillwind was indeed awe-inspiring!

And it did surprise Hao Ren that how did these warriors with radiation sicknes would be so strong. For normal Earthlings, anyone living under such condition would have withered away. Forget about building abs and muscles, even standing would have been a problem. Yet for these humans on the ark, while they may look like your run of the mill Earthlings, their body structure and composition may be different and in exchange of the shortened lifespan brought on by the radiation sickness, they have gained massive strength and musculature in place. That was the surprisng part.

Regardless, the Blood Wardens were still mortal, and they were not able to stop the intruders even as they came in waves. A stun grenade lobbed by Hao Ren into the camp laid many low, while Lily’s martial prowess saw her sending everything within her brick attack’s range flying all over the place. Nangong Sanba was then left with nothing to do, he ended up posing with the Letta rune cards in his hand in various attacking positions. Each pose was calculated and cool. Even Hao Ren could not help but ask. “What are you doing?!”

“Trying to look busy!” Nangong Sanba shouted back as he continued posing.

Yet the ones that the wardens were most afraid of was not the techno-sorcery lobbing Hao Ren or the furious brick warrior, Lily. The one that they were the most afraid of was Nangong Wuyue who was begging them to “Stop hitting me!”. The siren’s reflexive transformation made her look much much more intimidating. The three meter long giant serpent was like a monster from the legends to this bunch of ignorant and superstitious Blood Wardens. They swarmed towards Wuyue before recoiling in fear. Wuyue, the useless one in combat was scared out of her wits, as she flail her tail to protect herself she finally realised that her brother had nothing to do. With a swift motion she wrapped her tail around Nangong Sanba’s legs as swung him about as a shield. “Brother, help me!”

As Nangong Sanba’s scream echoed throughout the air, an epiphany came upon Hao Ren. “Well, he finally got busy…”

The invasion was both dangerous and exihilirating, but yet it did not last long. Before long, Hao Ren had already reached the main gate of the central control station. The gate wwas connected to a massive slanting catheter that extends all the way into the internal part of the reactor, like somesort of weird coiling elevator. The artificial gravity within this enclosed world was designed based on the locality, and the gravity field where Hao Ren stood was supposed to be vertical, and the constructs before him appeared just that bit unique for that.

Hao Ren held his hand forward to push the gate, and Vivian, this time around did not need any reminder as she conjured a lightning bat in her h and. “So, how many volts to get it talking?”

Hao Ren pushed the gate. “… It’s already open.”

Vivian was speechless.

“Halt!” The remaining few Blood Wardens shouted. “That is forbidden land!”

Hao Ren turned back, and put on the most convincing smile he could. “Don’t worry, we’re here to fix this thingmajing…. F*CK!”

Lily had just gotten out of her offensive trance and quipped. “What’s wrong?”

Hao Ren pointed towards the royal city. “Somone familiar is here. Shoul we go say hi?”

Towards the direction Hao Ren was pointing, a group of people was running as fast as they could towards him. And the one leading the pack was Willy.
