Chapter 2026 Chaotic Battle in the Dangerous City!
“The Fist King is dead, but don’t panic. I am the new leader of the ‘Godly Fist Union’. Follow me into Liberty City and let’s claim the Elysian World!”
When Great Iron City fell from the sky, emanating a brilliant fireball that consumed everything, a lot of ambitious experts in the Fist King’s army immediately waved their chainswords and vibration sabers and roared ear-splittingly at the heights of the burning fire.
Then, after a brief daze, they noticed the existence of their competitors and glared at each other furiously.
“The leader of Liberty City is doomed. The Fist King is doomed. But Liberty City is still here. Brothers, let’s hold our position! After we defeat this wave of attacks, we will be able to defend Liberty City and become the new master of the Elysian World!”
In Liberty City, a lot of tough bandits and thugs were roaring crazily, too, trying to regroup the soldiers and raise their morale, hoping to take Xiahou Wuxin’s position.
But the efforts of both parties were in vain.
The troops of both parties were jumbled by almost a hundred forces large and small. They were out-and-out mobs.
When the Fist King and the leader of Liberty City were still there, they could suppress the bandits who had ill intentions with their authority and unparalleled strength, reforming them into a somewhat trained army.
But now that the two of them had died with each other, and there was not a second bandit with enough leadership in their group, how could other bandits and thugs who each had their own supporters be idiotic enough to work for the shouters as cannon fodder?
Everybody had come to this place after a long journey. Was wealth not the sole motivation for them to fight at the risk of their life?
“The Fist King and the leader of Liberty City are both dead. Liberty City is an unowned land right now. If we break into it, whatever and however much we grab, it will all be ours!”
This was what most of the middle and small bandits were thinking of.
“With the chaos right now, it is impossible for us to defend Liberty City. Instead of wasting our life here for nothing, we might as well steal something and run away!”
The defenders were not determined, either.
There was no telling who took action first, but it was like a tiny crack on a dam that was filled with water. Nothing could possibly stop the collapse.
All the mobs were reduced to what they used to be, from ‘soldiers’ to ‘bandits’. They were even ten times more aggressive than before as their bloodthirst, brutality, and animality were raised by the legends of enjoyment and entertainment from the Elysian World!
On the defenders’ side, the gangs that were invited from every part of the Land of Sins to help with the battle were the first to collapse.
Taking advantage of the terrain, they shouted at the same time and abandoned their defense line, charging at the warehouses and markets in Liberty City that stored abundant assets.
The defenders of Liberty City who were still loyal to Xiahou Wuxin tried to stop them, but those tough bandits had completely forgotten that they were fighting by each other’s side a moment ago. They were killing so vehemently that they seemed willing to die together with Liberty City if they could not return with full loads.
Hardly had the defenders’ suppression lasted three minutes when the army of the attackers that was much more violent than before was already crushing their defense line brutally from behind.
“Damn it. Boss Xiahou is screwed now. Who are we working so hard for? Why don’t we go together with them and figure out what to do after we loot abundant resources?”
Seeing that victory was apparently on their side, the generals of the defenders only took three seconds to abandon their decades of fear and loyalty for Xiahou Wuxin.
Having stayed in Liberty City for decades, and since they had personally moved many precious assets into the warehouses, they naturally knew where the valuable items were kept.
After the defenders turned themselves into bandits who were taking advantage of the chaos, nobody was willing or capable of maintaining the order of Liberty City.
The most chaotic and gory street fight began.
It was not classified by different sides as basic units, or the original gangs and forces as units, but groups of three and four as the fundamental units.
All the thugs lost connection with their companions. They were not interested in regrouping, either, and simply ran about randomly in the shabby alleys of Liberty City.
Their eyes were as bloodshot as the eyes of flies. There was only one thought in their boiling head, which was to find the warehouses of assets and loot them without bothering anything else!
A lot of them fulfilled their wish.
The copious assets stored, the advanced magical equipment, and the excessive high-energy drugs in Liberty City far exceeded their imagination.
They waved the most advanced storm bolters, shouting and dancing. They rolled on the glittering piles of crystals. They widened their eyes as they poured dozens of doses of high-energy nutrition drugs into their bellies. Some of them were still wearing the laughter of ecstasy while they held their stuffed stomachs.
But most of the bandits were not as lucky as them.
As warehouses, the locations certainly could not be too remote and inconspicuous, and several groups of bandits often found them at the same time.
No declaration of war. No roars. Even the communication of cruel eyes was unnecessary. In silence, the bandits and thugs slashed their chainswords and high-heat axes at one another in the silence, raising a storm of bullets that would destroy everything!
Every skyscraper in Liberty City was exploding. Every shabby valley was on fire. The bandits and thugs involved in the turbulence of war were not possessed by the extraterrestrial devils, but they were a hundred times more brutal and violent than those who were possessed. To fight for the precious resources, they were engaged in battles that even the poltergeists at the deepest level of hell would find creepy.
Li Yao, the Fist King, Han Te, and Liu Li snuck underneath the ground.
All the bandits who knew and did not know each other were fighting.
At first, they fought for the warehouses of assets in small groups. After most of the warehouses were looted, the targets became the tough bandits that carried abundant assets. It could not be helped. Not many Cosmos Rings could be found in Liberty City. In order to ship the assets out of the city, the bandits could only carry them or haul them with heavy crystal tanks. Even a blind person could tell that they were ‘big fish’. Naturally, they were the best prey for the unlucky fellows who were empty handed.
But the victors who killed the bandits and pillaged their goods were not happy for long. It was often the case that only half a minute after they chopped the heads of their prey with chainswords, their own heads were flying in the smoky air before being crushed to a pulp.
Later, a lot of the tough bandits learned better. They decided to strengthen the defense of the warehouses after they had looted the assets instead of shipping the assets out of the city immediately. Holding the positions, they wanted to wait out the fierce battle and take action again when the other had mostly been killed by each other.
However, the other bandits were not idiots. After discovering that several large gangs had mysteriously gone missing, dozens of smaller gangs gradually united and launched attacks at many warehouses in Liberty City.
It was certainly the most chaotic war that Li Yao had ever seen!
The chaotic battles among the bandits and thugs were already dazzling and mind-boggling enough. But the tremendous Immortal Cultivators from the sky and the ‘live streamers’ who were even more insane made the situation much worse.
Those people were wearing equipment of a much higher level than that of the sinners. With the ultimate suits, they patrolled the battlefield in the city unhurriedly under the cover of smoke and fire.
They did not consider looting assets to be their goal. They were simply slaughtering as if they were cutting vegetables or butchering chicken.
Occasionally, when two different squads of players encountered each other, they would start a soul-stirring and brilliant competition, showing absolutely no mercy to their own kind. They were even crueler to their own kind than they were to the sinners, which made Li Yao’s heart beat fast. He had a more intrinsic and intuitionistic understanding about the truth path of immortality.
However, what was the greatest eye-opener for Li Yao was the guys who were known as ‘live streamers’.
For the players who were engaged in the trial quests, the ‘live streamers’ were even more unbelievable, bizarre, and insane.
They were mostly wearing colorful crystal suits that were like roosters, where countless glamorous, clinking, and unnecessary decorations were attached, including a cockscomb that rose to the sky, spiral horns longer than an arm, and the bleeding wings of animals.
Li Yao studied the usage of the redundancies for a long time. Based on his expertise and experience as a master of refining, he was certain that those messy items were of absolutely no use in real battles but purely for aesthetic purposes, although Li Yao, for one, did not think that a cluster of bluish chicken hair above the head, several shiny diamonds on the crystal suit, or the rings of bullet chains around their body were anything related to ‘aesthetic’.
Other than the folks in uncanny clothes, some other ‘live streamers’ seemed to be pursuing higher difficulties and did not wear a crystal suit or armor. They simply charged into the battlefield almost naked.
The live streamers of such a faction were mostly females with graceful and shapely bodies. They were all good at making use of the advantage of their body, and they could not have looked sexier. Even the most conservative of them were wearing bikinis under their half-transparent gauze.
Their fair bodies, their enticing gauzes, and their sabers and swords that were twice as long as themselves and stained with blood and mangled flesh indeed presented a certain weird charm.
Both the guys in unbelievably fancy clothes and the women with both sexiness and brutality were engaged in slaughters in the most unexpected and obstreperous ways.
Most of the live streamers did not pursue a higher number of kills but a bloodier and more shocking scene. They were even dancing and jumping as if they were having a seizure during the slaughter.
Like the redundancies on their bodies, a lot of their movements were unnecessary but purely for splendid, twisted, or mad sound and visual effects. They did not care at all even if they might be injured or even killed because of the unnecessary movements.
Li Yao even sensed that a lot of ‘live streamers’ were singing while they were killing. No. It was not just singing but some kind of scream between singing and enchantment. It was a spell that hypnotized both other people and themselves.
