Chapter 1474: Chapter 1033 High-End Game (3K)
General Li Ba was wounded on the Border City Battlefield, turning a warship into an arrow and severely injuring the Annihilation Monarch, Lord Skywolf.
This was information known to all the players in the world.
Many players were puzzled by how this guy managed to shoot a warship like an arrow into the enemy’s face.
But nobody denied the authenticity of the event.
Because too many humans had witnessed the scene. Divine creatures from various factions also sensed the wails of Lord Skywolf in the void at that time.
So when the ship’s broadcast included a girl warning, "Everyone abandon ship, General Li Ba is ready to shoot his arrow,"
the players decisively employed means to withdraw from combat.
They had been wondering since they followed the Biomimetic Teardrop in deserting: if this guy emulates his original form and turns a ship into an arrow, will they have time to run?
This worry wasn’t unfounded; Li Ba could be called a virtuoso among Archers, and his Biomimetic could well have learned some of his original form’s grace. If he suddenly did that, none on the ship would survive.
Upon receiving the hint, the players all had a "I knew it" expression and decisively took off running!
After all, if they didn’t run now, they risked getting shot onto the face of an enemy Demigod.
Whether that Demigod would die was unknown, but they would likely be as good as dead.
Thus, a great number of players began to seize escaping pods or small fighters from Annihilation’s side. Some even shattered the cabins, jumping directly out through the breaches.
The Celestial Soldiers and Generals, with help from some players, commandeered many escape pods and began to abandon Annihilation’s flagship.
Meanwhile, some Transcendents from the human realms took a number of players and Transcendents from the giant city aloft, leaving the main ship amidst clouds and mists.
Inside the command bridge, General Black Cloud, fighting Annihilation soldiers, also realized what was happening.
Even he was shocked by the audacity.
To take on an enemy flagship with a mere thousand people and successfully seize its control, then to use it to ram into an enemy Demigod powerhouse? What sort of genius strategy was that? Even after countless simulations, they had never considered such a tactic.
But he didn’t have time for complaints.
Because he saw General Azure Flame leading his iron legion, having killed over a thousand Annihilation soldiers, arriving on the bridge.
That terrifying malice, gathering under the general’s feet, was gradually devouring the entire warship.
Seeing the spreading Black Mud at his feet, General Black Cloud’s heart tightened.
After swiftly dealing with an Annihilation soldier in front of him, he quickly joined the two girls, warning, "Be careful, both of you!"
He was worried the Black Mud Divinity would pose a threat to them.
Theoretically, the Biomimetic Teardrop could indeed unleash a ship-as-arrow attack.
But the Teardrop didn’t have such vast reserves of Divinity.
The original attack had cost Li Changhe tens of thousands of points of Black Mud Divinity. It was less the warship that had injured Lord Skywolf and more the massive onslaught of Divinity.
The Teardrop couldn’t replenish Divinity from external sources; it could only receive Divinity given by Li Changhe.
The Black Mud Divinity that Black Cloud saw now actually came from ’Li Yunxi’ herself.
To be careful of her own Divinity?
Li Yunxi privately scoffed and replied, "General, General Li Ba has arrived. It’s time for us to abandon the ship!"
"What about this General Li Ba?" Black Cloud looked towards the Biomimetic Teardrop and asked.
"He’s gone to create distraction. We leave now, or we die."
"Alright!"
Black Cloud nodded at the words, swung his sword, and sent a lightning strike against the bridge’s observation window, then summoned a wisp of white cloud beneath his feet.
"I’ll take both of you out of here!" General Black Cloud invited them.
"Riding clouds?" Li Yunxi’s eyes brightened. It was the ability she desired most. What could be more thrilling than ascending by herself instead of flying on the Nine Heavens Dragon Horse?
"Please," said General Black Cloud, as the girl marveled at the ability to ride clouds, a smile in his heart.
And when the three stepped on the white cloud and left the flagship,
There were still a great number of Annihilation soldiers and armored aliens within the flagship.
Seeing the enemy evacuate in large numbers, although confused about what ’shooting an arrow’ strategy meant, they still concentrated their firepower, intending to recapture the bridge. If they regained control of the bridge, everything could be reversed.
Alas, they were firmly pinned down by the Great Tang’s armored legion. Even alone, the Biomimetic Teardrop could withstand their siege.
Until... until they realized the battleships began to accelerate, bypassing any safety measures for full-throttle acceleration.
The Annihilation side was thrown into complete panic.
The main battleships of the Annihilation were originally meant to sail through the cosmos and the void, their maximum speed reaching one-tenth the speed of light.
This exceeded the gravitational acceleration their bodies could endure. Therefore, before each acceleration, many safety measures had to be enacted within the fleet to ensure the safety of its members.
But now, all safety precautions were skipped. The battleships began to advance at full speed, and the acceleration beyond their physical limits instantly tore all the Annihilation units aboard into a Bloodmist.
At the same time, the Biomimetic Teardrop leapt from the battleship, and the entire vessel, transformed into an arrow of despair carrying pain and wails, streaked across the battlefield, crushing all obstacles in its path. It precisely rammed into an Annihilation monarch who was leading a fleet to besiege an Immortal!
That Annihilation monarch instantly looked back, with the Void Engine calculating at full capacity. Several main ships also fired their main cannons in unison, aiding the Great Monarch to withstand the arrow of despair.
The distance, after all, was too great, and it was impossible to launch a surprise attack like Lord Skywolf did.
But this... also gave the Immortal an opportunity to break free, only to see him laughing loudly, "Without the fleet to assist you, how can you be my opponent?"
With a gesture, he pointed at the Annihilation monarch from afar. That monarch, who had barely withstood the arrow of despair, suddenly bled from all seven orifices. The computing capacity of the Void Engine drastically reduced, his arm shattered by the arrow of despair.
The Immortal laughed heartily, gesturing and pointing again. The Annihilation monarch was directly flung into the palace below, and three giant mountains appeared out of nowhere, pinning down the monarch under them. Simultaneously, hundreds of massive swords, each a hundred meters long, fell from the sky and plunged into the mountains.
"Suppress and kill!"
The Immortal roared with laughter, finally freed from his opponent. He sneered at the Annihilation battleships that were once besieging him. Without the main attack from their monarch, a mere three main ships were no match for an Immortal!
This forced the other Annihilation Great Monarchs and fleets on the battlefield to redistribute some of their forces to confront that Immortal, even causing the True God in the core battlefield to look back.
"Damn, does a mere clone have this kind of ability?" Inside the Red Fist faction, a player frowned, "He even forced a Demigod to abandon his opponent!"
"As expected of the variable’s clone... With this, it will be difficult for us to surpass them in achievements," whispered another player. "The woman protected by the clone has become the biggest beneficiary of this trial!"
Indeed, the Biomimetic Teardrop had appeared to protect Chen Yu.
Now, the achievements of the joining forces with the battleship, using the ship as an arrow, would all be credited to the Biomimetic Teardrop, that is, to Chen Yu. The Red Fist faction could not possibly surpass Chen Yu in achievements, no matter how hard they tried.
"That clone fell far away and won’t be back at Chen Yu’s side anytime soon. Shall we take this chance to eliminate her?" suggested one player.
"Do not complicate matters. She is related to the variable, and rash contact may disrupt the Book of Heaven’s arrangements. Moreover, this is a reshaped battlefield, and we can’t actually kill her," Luo Qiao solemnly responded. "We can also achieve enough merit. Don’t forget, to counter the variable, our superior has bestowed upon us three Demigod Projections of the Heavenly Book!"
"Should we use one projection here?" suggested another player. "Wouldn’t that be too wasteful? This is just a trial. It’s only a simulated battlefield."
A Demigod Projection is extremely precious to a Demigod, because creating one requires a great deal of Divinity and energy. To ensure combat effectiveness, the projection must also be equipped with sufficiently powerful weapons and perhaps even God Sin.
Considering the presence of the variable, the Tianyan Association has specially prepared three projections for Luo Qiao as a solid trump card. Highly valued.
"It won’t be a waste, this relic offers us even greater benefits. We need enough merit to gain the opportunity to enter the deeper parts," reassured one.
"But Demigod Projections... are meant to combat the variable," a player reminded. "These are our means of survival."
Luo Qiao laughed, "Li Ba is far away in Border City. Even if he has noticed us by now, by the time he gets here, we will have completed our Task and disappeared from his perception. Moreover, taking the projections with us might just be part of the Book of Heaven’s plan."
...
On the other side, the morale of the Celestial Court faction soared.
Battleships crossed the Battlefield, taking out countless Annihilation fighters and escort ships, further increasing the advantage of the Celestial Court faction.
Meanwhile, an Immortal was thus liberated to unleash his full strength, greatly exhilarating the generals of the Celestial Court faction.
"Even if it is just a puppet, it has such capability! It should be accredited with the highest honor!"
"I see Black Cloud, the girl with the short hair beside him, her face covered by Black Fog. She is the one controlling the puppet. She should receive the highest honor for this victory!"
"And... that other girl with a ponytail... is she the one who stirred mundane feelings in Black Cloud? Indeed, she’s very pretty. Perhaps she’d be interested in becoming an Immortal in the Guanghan Palace?"
The generals shared a knowing laugh, but then they sensed a powerful presence suddenly appearing above the battlefield.
It was a mighty Immortal projecting an image, clad in red armor, with four arms, each arm wielding a different weapon!
Suddenly appearing, he wielded his weapons, attacking the Annihilation battleships and brutally tearing open an encirclement.
This allowed a female Immortal, or rather an Immortal, who was battered by continuous solar flare bombardments to the brink of exhaustion, to escape.
"A projection of an Immortal! The outsiders have used a projection of an Immortal!" exclaimed the generals of the Celestial Court.
And that ancient voice whispered softly, "Quite a number of strange fellows have come in. Have their people come here too?"
Meanwhile, at the edge of the battlefield, ’Li Yunxi,’ who was beside Black Cloud General, looked at the Demigod Projection that had suddenly appeared in the distance.
She chuckled quietly, "Oh ho, a Demigod Projection, no? What a high-end game this is."
