Chapter 649 Collapse
Puff!!
Blood sprayed—
Li Hong held a long knife in his hand and stared at the sharp claws of the giant corpse rus.h.i.+ng to him. He slowly stepped back and covered the blood hole on his abdomen. As the blood bled, his pneuma gradually wilted.
There was no King Warrior around except him, and the pressure of killing more than twenty giant corpses was heavy and suffocating.
“Knife King, come back. You will die worthless, if you continue.”
The King Warrior in red, who was leaning against the wall, was now completely covered in blood. There were also two long and deep scratches on his back. The blood ran down his back, forming a puddle of red on the ground.
Li Hong gasped, frowned and clenched the long blade in his hand. He finally let go, turned and jumped onto the city wall.
If he hadn’t recognized Qingling, he wouldn’t have been so afraid of death.
The chubby old man stepped forward to stop bleeding for Li Hong. His face was also very pale. His cultivation was just in Huashen Realm. It was not easy for him to heal this group of warriors whose power was comparable to that in nature’s test.
“Five King Warriors’ lives were paid, but it was only delayed for one day.”
Ding Gang glanced over the remaining fifteen King Warriors one by one. All of them were seriously injured, and they had reached their limit.
“Chief!”
He turned his head to look at the chubby old man and spoke in a soft voice. But everyone took it seriously.
“Ask for the opinions of the seventh-cla.s.s warriors. We need support.”
The chubby old man’s expression remained unchanged, but he sighed. Obviously, he had already planned for this situation.
He slowly came to the city wall, facing the warriors gathered inside the city and at the city wall. Looking at the eyes full of various emotions, he took a deep breath. Then his loud voice began to echo over Ma Camp.
“You, the warriors of Ma Camp. As you’ve seen, now it’s a clutch time of our camp. There are eleven King Warriors in our camp and ten King Warriors of foreign aid. They hold on protecting the city gate for seven days. Five of them were killed, and the remaining were seriously injured. They are unable to fight again!
I, Ma De, the chief of Ma Camp, hereby plead with you! In order to delay the time until Master of Chimo Circle arrives, we must fight for our homeland desperately. Only in this way can we get a chance to save the hundreds of thousands compatriots of Ma Camp!”
After he said this, the warriors, crowding in entire city gate street, fell silent.
The chubby old man frowned, and was about to say something. He saw a seventh-cla.s.s warrior in the crowd suddenly raised his weapon and shouted, “Chief! You let me live safe and sound for these years. The camp is in danger. Why do you let us go to the battlefield until now? Do you look down on us?!”
“Exactly!”
A large group of warriors began to chime in with others, “Open the gate of the city. Many hands make light work. We can definitely help!”
“Fight!”
“Kill the giant corpses to avenge the death of King Warriors!”
“Kill, kill, kill!”
“Chief, give an order! All of us are willing to fight!”
The chubby old man watched the excited crowd under the city gate with moist eyes. This was the reason why he was willing to stay in Chimo Circle. In Qingshui Circle… it was impossible for such a scene to appear.
“Okay! It’s my fault!”
He laughed. His laughter spread around the city wall, “A quarter of an hour later, all seventh-cla.s.s warriors go out to fight the enemies. Remember your mission is to interfere with the giant corpses’ process of destroying the black curtain. Only if you are alive can you continue to interfere. Don’t lose your life too soon!”
“Yes!!”
The shouts shook the sky.
In the courtyard, Li Qingling wiped off her cold sweat, looking at the round rune tactical matrix on the ground exuding a little brilliance. She smiled and was relieved for her success.
After experimenting to determine that the rune tactical matrix could be used, Li Qingling picked up the sub tactical matrix and rushed out the door immediately. At her speed, she came to the gate of the city in less than a quarter of an hour. She shouted,
“Uncle Ma!”
Chief, Ma De, heard the voice and signaled the guards to let her go. Li Qingling got on the city wall, and immediately saw the terrifying sight of twenty overwhelming giant corpses outside the city.
She shook her hand which held the sub tactical matrix. Her eyes flashed with light of determination, and she took a deep breath, calmed down and walked to Li Hong quickly. She couldn’t help but redden her eyes as she watched Li Hong’s blood stains all over his body.
“Eldest Brother!”
Li Hong smiled and hugged Li Qingling. He just grinned when the move of hugging aggravated his wound, “I’m OK. It’s dangerous here. Leave here now.”
When the other King Warriors saw this scene, they couldn’t help but think of the person they were worried about, and they got a little eased off.
They were fighting hard just for their relatives!
Even though everyone could see that Li Qingling was a seventh-cla.s.s warrior and reached the standard for fighting out of the city, no one suggested that she should fight. Because Li Hong had paid so much.
“No. I want to stay here!”
Li Qingling’s eyes were full of stubbornness. She held the sub tactical matrix tightly in her hand, “If the city gate is really broken, it will be the same everywhere in Ma Camp!”
Li Hong sighed. He had known that his younger sister was as stubborn as him, and no one could change her decision since she was a child.
“In this case, you will be with Uncle Ma instead of me and be responsible for pa.s.sing the order, so I can concentrate on healing my wounds.”
Li Qingling’s eyes lit up when she heard the words, and then she nodded heavily.
Only staying here could she pa.s.s the news of war to Su Li immediately!
A quarter of an hour later, thousands of seventh-cla.s.s warriors gathering in Ma Camp rushed out of the city gate. The roars of the giant corpses were earth-shaking, and in the blink of an eye outside the city, blood ran into rivers.
But even so, the remaining seventh-cla.s.s warriors still did not flinch, rus.h.i.+ng out again with roars.
Throw straws against the wind.
They knew that it was almost useless, but they also knew that they had no way out, and if they took a step back, they would vanish in despair and destruction.
Li Qingling stared out of the city blankly. Her eyes seemed to be stained red with blood. She didn’t expect to see such a tragic scene just as she stepped onto the city gate.
The situation was serious enough. They had to use their lives to exchange for vitality!
She clasped the rune sub tactical matrix and the tight hold made her hand turn white.
It was not yet…the last moment!
Ma De sighed and closed his eyes.
“It’s only seven or eight days. Why can’t the time go faster…”
—
“Go faster!”
Ma Jintian roared, but found that his voice was hoa.r.s.e. His hands became dead branches, and his whole body was bloodless and skinny.
Poisonous Man Hunting Insect had already completely soaked up his flesh and blood, and could no longer squeeze out the slightest power from him.
“Ahh— Ahem”
Ma Jintian was furious and roared. His legs broke and slumped onto the ground. He coughed out dry blood clots from his mouth.
“Okay, boy.”
Bing Feng sent out a frost cage, which wrapped Ma Jintian, and smiled comfortingly, “You have done so much. Squeezing yourself so hard will give you at least two extra days. Let me handle the remaining things. You can go home the day after tomorrow.”
Bing Feng held up the cage, and the blue light in his eyes skyrocketed and disappeared in no time.
—
Four hours later, there were only a hundred odd warriors left among the one thousand warriors who rushed out, and most of them were disabled. The extremely strong smell of blood entered the city through the cracks of the city gate.
“More than nine hundred lives were exchanged for four hours.”
The corners of Ma De’s eyes were beating, and his heart was bleeding, but as the chief, he must remain calm.
“Qingling, the sixth-cla.s.s warriors don’t have to go out of the city. Even if they try their best, they can’t hinder the movement of the giant corpses a little. There is no warrior who can do anything for this city. You pa.s.s the order and let everyone prepare. Once the city is broken…”
Ma De paused, and then his voice became deeper, “Try your best to escape!”
“Yes!”
Li Qingling’s eyes misted over a little, and she immediately went to pa.s.s the order.
She still didn’t tell that the powerhouse was Su Li. She knew very well that if there was no miracle after giving hope, the heart that finally strengthened would instantly collapse.
Moreover, facing the terrifying twenty giant corpses, she didn’t have too much confidence in Su Li.
After all, Su Li only beat away one giant corpse.
Under Li Qingling’s order, the residents in front of the city gate all bowed to the old man on the city gate, and then they left. In the blink of an eye, there was no one inside the wall, and even some guards left, leaving only a few people here.
“Qingling, you go too. Go with your eldest brother.”
Ma De suddenly said. Li Qingling glanced at Li Hong who was still healing his wounds, but she smiled and shook her head, “I want to stay here until the last moment!”
Ma De shook his head and smiled bitterly. He stopped persuading her.
There was no sound of slas.h.i.+ng, and only the monotonous bombardment of giant corpses attacking the black curtain remained on the single city wall. Ma De just looked at this scene with a calm face.
Four hours later, the black light curtain finally shattered and disappeared from the sky above the city. Twenty giant corpses roared and rushed wildly, hitting the green light curtain with their heads. They were blocked again.
“Four hours. The power of curb is more powerful than I thought.”
Ma De was thinking about the time. This nameless curb pattern bought them at least two days. Then how long could the treasure Tianhe Tripod persist?
Time pa.s.sed by in dullness and suffocation.
Every time the green barrier shook, all the people were nervous. In the large rear that was invisible to everyone, a thick beam of light landed on the courtyard, making the color of the green curtain much lighter.
After only sixteen hours—
Click!
The piercing breaking sound rang in the ears of everyone on the wall. Ma De fell into despair.
Ma De’s face was pale. He looked at the hole on the green light curtain. A wry smile and unwillingness were magnified on his face.
“The treasure Tianhe Tripod can’t hold on for even one day. Is it a real treasure?”
Li Qingling looked at the crack and bit her lips tightly.
Was it the last moment now?
“I’ll lead them away! Buy time!”
Ding Gang stood up suddenly and left the green curtain. His voice was filled with decisiveness.
“My life is worthless! Li Hong, if I die, you will take care of my younger brother for me!”
Sure enough, after Ding Gang appeared, all the giant corpses averted their attention and rushed towards him.
“Come on, you little b.a.s.t.a.r.ds! You are pieces of s.h.i.+t in my eyes!”
Ding Gang laughed wildly and dodged a few sharp claws dangerously. When he was about to lead away all the giant corpses, a strange cry came from the black mist.
All the giant corpses paused together and turned around to attack the green curtain.
Ding Gang was suddenly anxious. Just at a moment of his carelessness—
Swis.h.!.+
Electric light flashed in the black mist and a beam of white light pa.s.sed Ding Gang’s neck. His look froze on his face, and then—
His head was blown into the sky by blood pneuma and it fell into the open mouth of one of the giant corpses.
