The Last Rock Emperor - Chapter 335
Chapter 335 Close The City Gates
At the forefront of the fire cloud, a wisp of colorful light shot out.
The frequency of the city wall trembling became faster and faster. With everyone’s eyesight, they could vaguely see the figure of the black-armored ant army in the middle of the square in the distance.
On the city wall, hundreds of crystal energy cannons had already been aimed at the incoming fire cloud.
In the air defense tower, all the crystal energy cannons near the south wall also aimed at the fire cloud. They had even finished gathering their energy, so everything could be said to be ready.
“Chi …!”
As the wind whistled, two figures quickly took off their clouds and shot towards Heavenly Rock City.
“Swoosh …!”
The group of warriors felt their eyes go blurry. There were already two more people on the tower. Who else could it be if it wasn’t Ji Ruoxue and Fei Na?
As the two of them entered the city, the fire clouds in the sky finally entered Heavenly Rock City’s attack range.
As soon as the two of them climbed onto the city wall, they saw the glasses on their bodies that suddenly shone with lightning. They did not even greet each other and unequivocally roared, “Crystal Energy Cannon, get ready!”
“Fire…!”
“Rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble!”
On the city wall, on the air defense tower, countless crystal energy cannonballs shot out towards the fire cloud.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!”
The crystal-blue cannonballs that flew out drew blue rays in the air and instantly sliced through the sky, smashing into the fire clouds.
“Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!”
Countless crystalline blue cannonballs exploded in the fire clouds formed by the corpses, turning into crystalline blue waves. Crystalline blue waves of light spread out at an extremely fast speed.
“Chi …!”
However, in an instant, crystalline blue clouds appeared within the fire clouds, and they were rapidly spreading.
As soon as the crystal blue cloud formed, it immediately escaped from the fire cloud and began to fall at an extremely high speed amidst the sound of the wind.
“Rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble!”
On the city wall of Heavenly Rock City, the Crystal Energy Cannon on the air defense tower completely rumbled. Countless crystalline blue cannonballs flew out like fire clouds for free. Even the temperature of the entire Heavenly Rock City region plummeted.
In the sky, the sky-blue clouds that had been rendered from the explosion of the crystal-blue cannonball were rapidly falling.
“Pa pa pa pa …!”
These so-called crystal blue clouds were naturally countless zombies that had been frozen into crystal blue ice. Now, they were crashing to the ground. The instant they touched the ground, they exploded into pieces.
On the ground, Fang Mubai looked up at the crystal blue clouds shrouded in the sky and shouted, “Oh shit! It’s actually an Ice Cloud Bullet! Those are all my stocks!”
“Pa pa pa pa …!”
“Guild Leader, I’ll leave the team to you for now. Pay attention to the top of your head! Get into the city as fast as you can!” Fang Mubai shouted as he looked at the south city gate not far away.
“Yes …!”
The commander of the Ink Armored Ant Army quickly responded.
Hearing the other party’s response, Fang Mubai nodded. Black mist flashed around his body, and a keratinous armor suddenly surrounded his body. He raised his four wings on his back and leapt up from beneath his feet.
All the soldiers saw was a thin black line across the sky, but Minister Fang had long since disappeared.
In fact, Fang Mubai was really anxious. On the city wall and the control tower, every cannon sound was like a rain of blue bullets.
However, every time this neat cannon sound sounded, his heart ached, and his speed had already soared to its peak.
“Right now, he only has one thought in his heart. He should hurry to the city tower as quickly as possible. He can’t let Vice City Lord Nian spoil my Frozen Cloud Bullet anymore!”
The so-called Ice Cloud Bullets were naturally the crystalline blue cannonballs that were constantly bombarding the city walls. Although these shells weren’t rare, their numbers weren’t in the majority.
The reason for that was because the Cannonball was made from the crystalline nuclei of the Frost Zombies of the Rock Tribe, along with some new chemical ingredients.
Of course, this thing wasn’t a rare item in Heavenly Rock City. However, as the head of the Ink Armor Army, Fang Mubai felt quite distressed for this kind of strategic material. It was used to deal with his minions.
Evidently, although the vice city lord had some understanding of ordnance this year, his understanding of its function, or perhaps its strategic significance, was still much worse than Fang Mubai’s.
After all, Fang Mubai specialized in magic. Before the apocalypse, he had truly fought against the special forces and mercenaries of various countries.
Although the wars between evolved creatures were not comparable to modern wars, Fang Mubai was definitely an expert in Heavenly Rock City.
“Chi …!”
The wind howled, and just as the third round of Frozen Cloud Bullets was launched, Fang Mubai flew up to the city wall like a wisp of black smoke.
As soon as he stepped onto the city wall, he said anxiously, “Report, Vice City Lord Nian, I’m back.”
Eyeglasses, Fei Na, and Ji Ruoxue felt a black wind blew past them, and there was one more person in front of them. Who else could it be if it wasn’t Fang Mubai?
Eyeglasses, on the other hand, was quite conscious. He immediately handed over a gigantic black communication device-like object in his hand to Fang Mubai and said, “Very good, our commander-in-chief has finally returned. I’ve been waiting for you for half a day!”
“Old Fang, it’s been hard work. However, you will be in charge of the next battle, including the few of us!”
Fang Mubai immediately gave a standard military salute and said solemnly, “Yes!”
Within Heavenly Rock City, Yifan, including his group of academics, had great trust in Fang Mubai. Even Yifan respected Fang Mubai.
One had to know that in the Heavenly Rock faction, there were many high-level firearm skills that belonged to the Fang Mubai Church. In private, many high-level people called Instructor Fang Mubai.
This made Fang Mubai incomparably moved, and also made him truly treat Heavenly Rock City as his home. It was no different for him to die for his confidante.
At this moment, Eyeglasses had handed over the highest command of the city defense to Fang Mubai.
Fei Na and Ji Ruoxue naturally did not have any objections to Fang Mubai, and they both agreed with and trusted him quite a bit.
Fang Mubai did not give in. After taking over the command, he did not hesitate to start making arrangements. His first order was to stop bombarding the Frozen Cloud Bombs and switch to ordinary crystal energy bombs.
Then, after looking at Fei Na, he quickly said, “Minister Fei Na, you are one of the few people in Heavenly Rock City with the most outstanding air combat capabilities.”
“I’ll leave the fire clouds in the air to you. Even if we let them fly into the sky above Heavenly Rock City, it doesn’t matter. There are still countless crystal energy guns on the city walls and in the air defense tower.”
Fina smiled indifferently and accepted the order happily, “I don’t think it’s necessary. With the baptism of the three waves of ice cloud bombs and the assistance of Mo Yi and the Heavenly Rock Mountain Mutated Bird, I won’t be able to enter the sky above Heavenly Rock City for the time being. Leave it to me.”
“Chi …!”
As the wind blew, Fei Na’s voice fell, and he turned into an indigo flash that flew into the air.
Fang Mubai did not stop and continued to arrange, “Minister Ruoxue, you and I are the same. We have suffered enormous losses in crystal power. Let’s defend against the city wall and quickly recover our crystal power.”
Ji Ruoxue nodded calmly, “Alright!”
She picked up the binoculars on the city walls and glasses and looked at the corpses in the distance.
Finally, Fang Mubai looked at his glasses and said, “Vice City Lord Nian, your mission is very simple. Use your lightning ability to kill as many zombies as possible.”
Eyeglasses laughed heartily and replied, “Alright!”
Next, Fang Mubai quickly picked up the gigantic communicator in his hand and began to make arrangements for the battle after docking with the enemy.
In fact, Nian Chen had directly handed over these matters to Gu Jian, the Mastiff, and the Golden Ring Snake.
At this moment, Fang Mubai was only checking to see if there were any possible mistakes.
“Boom boom boom boom!”
The sound of the cannonball was still the same, but the color of the cannonball had changed. The original crystal blue cannonball had turned into a transparent white explosive shell.
It exploded into white spheres of light in the air. All the zombies within the sphere of light were torn into pieces by the violent crystal force.
The power was pretty good, but this range was much weaker than the Frozen Cloud Bullet. Furthermore, it also had the ability to freeze in an instant without the Frozen Cloud Bullet.
There was nothing he could do. This was only the most ordinary crystal energy bomb. The main material was just an ordinary crystal core. Compared to the Frozen Cloud Bomb, it was much more ordinary.
Even if the fight was over, Fang Mubai would not feel any heartache as long as it was in the right place.
In fact, after this battle, there were definitely not a few corpses who died. Naturally, there would be a lot of crystal cores, especially for ordinary crystal cores.
With the crystal core, are you still afraid that the Research Department and the Engineering Department will not process it?
“Ta Ta Ta Ta …!”
Amidst the sound of neat footsteps, the Ink Armor Ant Army had already arrived at the suspension bridge at the southern city gate. The suspension bridge had long since been put down, and the city gate had already opened wide. They were already waiting for them.
“Ta Ta Ta Ta …!”
In a short moment, a total of 5,000 Ink Armor Ant Army warriors, led by a commander, flew into the city gate like a black dragon.
“Di Di …!”
As soon as the Ink Armor Ant Army entered the city, the two queen ants, Hua Leng and Mo Ling, began to ring with their unique beeps.
‘”Ka ka ka ka …”
Intense knocking sounds rang out between the joints and the ground. Behind the two queen ants, a sea of ants formed by Hua Leng and her descendants shot towards the city moat that was more than eighty meters wide.
Just as Hua Leng and Mo Ling’s beeps sounded, countless circular holes appeared in front of the southern city gate and behind the moat.
Apart from Hua Leng and Mo Ling, countless Flower Prism Electric Ants quickly passed through the suspension bridge and crawled towards the circular holes.
‘”Ka ka ka ka …”
However, in a short moment, the vanguard of the Ant Sea had already arrived at the location of the circular holes and quickly entered. Clearly, these holes were the entrances and exits that the Ant Race had specifically dug out.
The two queen ants, Hua Leng and Mo Ling, had six limbs crawling non-stop. However, in an instant, the six limbs had already turned into an illusion. In a moment, they seemed to be walking on flat ground, following the city walls that were more than a hundred meters tall and the city towers that were more than a hundred meters tall.
After Hua Leng and Mo Ling arrived at the city tower, they immediately turned into mini-forms the size of fingers and lay on the city wall. Thinking about it, the intense battle that day and night would naturally consume an incomparably large amount of energy on them.
In the sky, translucent light ball cannonballs rained down like rain. The tornado blades in Fei Na’s hands flew out repeatedly. The black robe had long since turned into a miniature form. He commanded the flock of birds to launch an extremely ferocious charge towards the already damaged fire clouds.
The vibrations on the city walls were getting faster and faster. Clearly, this meant that the group of corpses was getting closer and closer to the southern gate of Heavenly Rock City.
After a while, the last Hua Leng electric ant crawled into the circular hole. In the distance, a dot of dark red light appeared in the eyes of the soldiers like a projectile.
Behind the dark red dot, there seemed to be a huge black patch that was soaking in this direction.
Fang Mubai quickly pressed down on the black communicator and ordered decisively, “Gu Jian, pull up the suspension bridge and close the city gate immediately.”
