Chapter 233 - Inhumane
Chapter 233: Chapter 233: Inhumane
Looking at Li Tianlan’s private chat, Ren Qi raised his eyebrows.
He didn’t expect Li Tianlan to ask him for help.
In the entire Cloud, besides him and Zhao Yuheng, Li Tianlan’s strength was ranked at the top.
Especially since she had obtained three Thunder Holy Stones last time. Her strength should have increased by a level. Why would she suddenly ask for help?
Ren Qi did not hesitate either. He directly asked Elise to gather the succubus army and prepare to leave. At the same time, he asked Li Tianlan what had happened.
Ren Qi asked, “What’s the situation on your side?”
Li Tianlan said, “Previously, there was a monster faction next to my territory. I was not in a hurry to eliminate it. I was prepared to attack it after my strength increased a little.”
“However, the monster faction was suddenly enveloped by the black fog yesterday. It was as if it had been swallowed by the black fog.”
“I did not take it to heart. After all, all sorts of changes have occured in the black fog.”
“However, tonight, a large number of pitch-black monsters began to rush out from the monster faction’s location that was enveloped by the black fog. They should be tarnished.”
“These tarnished have Tier-9 combat power, and there are so many of them. At first, we were able to resist, but later on, more and more tarnished appeared. Li Linan came to support me, but I couldn’t hold on any longer. I could only ask you for help.”
Looking at the message Li Tianlan sent, Ren Qi frowned slightly.
Tier-9 tarnished!
According to the messages in the chat group, there were signs of the sealing gates loosening everywhere. There were also signs of tarnished attacking the surrounding new lord territories.
However, most of the tarnished weren’t very high-ranked. The highest ranked among them were Tier 8, while Tier 9 monsters were extremely rare.
For example, Ren Qi had already experienced a relatively rare situation when he had been attacked by a large number of Tier-9 tarnished.
Although he wasn’t sure why this situation had occurred, Ren Qi quickly organized the succubus army and quickly rushed to the Five Elements Teleportation Array.
Following a flash of light, Ren Qi and the others instantly disappeared.
In Li Tianlan’s territory, as rays of light rose one after another, Ren Qi and the succubus army appeared.
Ren Qi stepped on a dark dragon and directly came to Li Tianlan’s side on the city wall.
Meanwhile, Elise, who had already recovered, brought the succubus army and flew towards the city wall.
After having his Flood Dragon Bead swallowed, Ao Xing did not throw a tantrum. He led the Black Flood Dragon clan and soared into the sky.
Only the black turtles walks towards the city wall.
Upon reaching the top of the city wall, Ren Qi saw a large number of black monsters below the city wall.
These black monsters looked very strange. They did not look like the black goblins or dark-skinned elemental elves who had attacked Ren Qi’s territory. He couldn’t tell what kind of monsters they were.
These monsters were very strange. There were several cracks on their bodies. They looked like they had been pieced together by various parts of different monsters. They looked very disgusting.
Moreover, the aura that they emitted was very dense. It had completely reached Tier 9.
Their expressions were the same as those of the black monsters from before. They were completely unhinged. However, it was unknown whether it was because these monsters were pieced together. Their expressions looked even more crazed.
If the expressions of the black monsters that attacked Ren Qi’s territory looked as if they had been toyed, then the expressions of the black monsters that attacked Li Tianlan’s territory were as if they had been completely broken.
These black monsters did not care about death. They continued to attack Li Tianlan’s territory.
The various cannons on the city wall and the continuously-firing mithril cannons could only slow down the pace of these monsters’ attacks.
Ren Qi could even see that after the bodies of these monsters were damaged by the explosions, the scattered parts of their bodies could still slowly squirm.
Such powerful live force!
Seeing Ren Qi come forward, a hint of joy appeared on Li Tianlan’s face.
“You’re here.”
“Mm.” Ren Qi nodded. Then, he got Elise to lead the succubus army to launch an attack on the black monsters below.
Li Tianlan said worriedly, “These black monsters have a high resistance to lightning. My five elemental thunder qilin’s attack on them loses much of its power.”
This was also an important reason why Li Tianlan asked for help.
Li Linan said, “Sister Tianlan, don’t worry. I’ve already informed my beloved uncle in the territory to bring the mithril cannons over. They should be here soon.”
Li Tianlan nodded slightly when she heard Li Linan’s words, but her brows were still tightly furrowed.
That was because there were simply too many black monsters attacking from below.
An endless stream!
An incessant wave!
It was like a black wave. Li Tianlan could not see the end of these black monsters, which made her feel very uncertain.
Ren Qi’s gaze fell on the ground below. Elise and the others had already begun to attack.
A large amount of hellfire began to fall from the sky, directly burning the black creatures below.
Elise, who had already recovered her strength, was very powerful. The pitch-black hellfire instantly burned the black monsters that were ‘bathed’ in it.
The special characteristic of the hellfire was also displayed. Because the monsters below were too crowded, the hellfire directly moved from one monster to another.
A large amount of hellfire began to spread out, directly enveloping a large area of black monsters, setting them ablaze.
The area below was instantly cleared into a land where only pitch-black hellfire remained.
However, compared to the mass of black monsters, the space cleared by the pitch-black hellfire was somewhat insignificant.
Risa led the death succubi and charged into the black monsters below. The dagger in her hand kept flashing with cold light, reaping the lives of the black monsters one by one.
The battle succubi led by Irene were the most powerful. The two pitch-black light swords in their hands swept back and forth, quickly clearing an empty space in front of them.
But soon, a large number of black monsters appeared, filling up the cleared space once again.
Tabitha also rushed into the black monsters, trying to arouse the greed of these black monsters, but she didn’t succeed.
This made her feel a little awkward.
“Another group of idiots whose souls can’t be used! I thought I could have a good meal. What bad luck!”
Maggie led the support succubi and began to shuttle through the entire battlefield, treating the wounded.
With the efforts of Maggie and the support succubi, the casualties of Ren Qi’s succubus army and Li Tianlan’s five elemental thunder qilins were reduced to a very low level.
However, the entire battlefront was unable to advance.
This was because there were simply too many of these black monsters!
Even with the addition of the succubus army, Ao Xing, and Han Wu, they were still barely able to keep these black monsters out of Li Tianlan’s territory.
If it weren’t for the three mithril cannons on the city wall shooting out from time to time to relieve the pressure, these black monsters might have already attacked from a weak point.
“This can’t go on. Should we get Zhao Yuheng and the others to support us?” Li Tianlan looked at the situation below the city wall and was a little worried.
After all, even with Ren Qi’s addition, the situation had only improed a little.
Ren Qi shook his head and said, “Zhao Yuheng and the others will need a few hours to come over. It won’t be of much use.”
“Although there are a lot of these black monsters, they can’t be endless. There will definitely be an end. Let’s just waste time like this.”
“With the combined strength of the both of us, it’s impossible for these black monsters to break through.”
Li Tianlan nodded when she heard Ren Qi’s words. It seemed that there was no other way now.
After seeing that the hellfire had a great effect on these black monsters, Elise began to fly quickly in the sky. She continued to scatter large amounts of hellfire downwards.
When these hellfire descended, it would form a hellfire domain. All the black monsters within it would be burned.
Moreover, it was difficult to extinguish the hellfire. The hellfire domain would form a barrier to block these black monsters.
Elise flew around Li Tianlan’s territory and used the hellfire to set up a defensive circle around the territory.
If it was an ordinary monster, it might have stopped outside this circle of hellfire.
However, these black monsters were completely irrational. They only knew how to attack without caring for their lives.
Therefore, even if there was a hellfire domain in front of them that could take their lives, they still continued to charge forward.
A large number of black monsters were infected by the hhellfire, but there were still a large number of black monsters that passed through the Hellfire and continued to attack.
The mithril cannons on the city walls continued to fire. Li Tianlan knew clearly that this was not the time to save energy crystals.
Relying on the continuous attacks of the mithril cannons and the hellfire of Elise, the battle line began to advance a little.
However, the situation in front of them was still not optimistic.
That was because these black monsters continued to pour out without any signs of stopping.
At this moment, several mithril cannons fired destructive beams from afar, directly clearing a large area of black monsters.
Li Linan, who was on the city wall, jumped up and said, “Sister Tianlan, the dwarf uncles are here!”
“My territory has forged eight mithril cannons. I’ll ask them to bring all of them over. They’ll definitely be able to help you.”
Ren Qi raised his eyebrows and exclaimed in his heart, ‘Good girl.’
Eight mithril cannons!
She was simply a rich little woman.
As beams of destructive light rose one after another, a large number of black monsters in front of them were annihilated. Then, several dwarves carried the mithril cannons and arrived at Li Tianlan’s territory.
Soon, these dwarves arrived on the city wall, and the mithril cannons were placed on the city wall.
These dwarves not only brought mithril cannons, but also a large amount of energy crystals!
“Sister Tianlan, I’ve brought over 200,000 energy crystals. Fire at will, and I’ll definitely help you defend your territory.”
Hearing Li Linan’s words, Li Tianlan was touched, and she didn’t stand on ceremony with her.
She knew Li Linan’s nature. If she rejected her, it would hurt her instead.
Ren Qi could not help but sigh. This was simply inhumane!
A large amount of energy crystals were filled into the mithril cannons. Following which, beams of destructive light rapidly shot forward.
Flames lit up in front of them, and the explosions caused by the mithril cannons rose and fell.
The other new lords around Li Tianlan’s territory were all stunned.
Such a muffled sound was definitely the mithril cannons in Li Tianlan’s territory.
No one knew what Li Tianlan had encountered, but it was like setting off firecrackers.
Under the night sky, these new lords didn’t dare to investigate. They could only send their guesses into the chat group.
However, most of the new lords had already entered their sleep, so these messages didn’t cause any waves in the chat group.
However, Zhao Yuheng’s message quickly appeared in the private chat group in the Cloud.
Zhao Yuheng: “What kind of danger has Li Tianlan’s territory encountered? Do you need help?”
From the continuous firing of the mithril cannons, Zhao Yuheng could guess that Li Tianlan had probably encountered quite a lot of danger.
Li Tianlan: “There’s no need. I’ve already asked Ren Qi to help. There’s also Linan. Now that the situation has stabilized, it will take some time for you guys to come over. It should be over by then.”
Zhao Yuheng: “Alright, then you guys be careful. If you encounter any danger that you can’t withstand, just tell me in the group chat. I’ll rush over as soon as possible.”
Looking at the messages in the Cloud chat group, Li Tianlan was very touched.
Following the continuous bombardment of the mithril cannons that Li Linan’s dwarves had sent over, the battle line below her territory finally began to rapidly push outwards.
At this moment, a dwarf beside Li Linan, who was holding a huge axe in his hand, directly let out an angry roar.
Following that, he suddenly stomped on the ground and directly soared into the air.
He was a Tier-9 thunder-type battle dwarf that Li Linan had lured over with the help of the Dwarf House.
This dwarf had been upgraded by the Thunder Holy Stone and was now close to half-step Saint-tier. His strength was very powerful.
After rising into the air, a large amount of lightning began to appear on the dwarf’s body.
The power of lightning surged, making this dwarf look like a god of thunder.
This dwarf slowly raised his right hand. A ray of lightning directly descended from the sky and landed on the huge axe in his hand.
Following that, this thunder-type battle dwarf suddenly charged down.
It was as if there were flashes of lightning along the way. The ground below was directly plowed into a long terrain.
The black monsters on this terrain all flew up and were subsequently destroyed by the lightning’s power.
Although these black monsters had resistance against the power of lightning-type attacks, in the face of absolute power, no matter how much damage they reduced, it was useless.
The succubus army led by Elise also started a crazy massacre.
Because these black monsters were resistant to the power of the lightning element, the succubus army had killed the most monsters on the battlefield.
At this time, Li Tianlan finally let out a sigh of relief. If nothing unexpected happened, the battle line would quickly move forward.
At this moment, Li Linan, who was on top of the city wall, pointed to the front and happily said, “Sister Tianlan, quickly look. Those black monsters have been cut off. It seems that there won’t be any more of them.”
Ren Qi looked at Li Linan’s jumping manner and could not help but feel a little worried.
They’re so big. I hope they don’t pop out.
Hearing Li Linan’s words, Li Tianlan’s gaze also landed behind those black monsters. As expected, she discovered that there was already an end to these black monsters. There were no new monsters to replenish their numbers.
This made Li Tianlan completely relax. After all, these black monsters gave her too much pressure.
Subsequently, Li Tianlan ordered the mithril cannons on the city walls to stop firing. After all, there was no longer a need to continue using the mithril cannons.
Although she and Li Linan had sufficient energy crystals, it was not good to waste them.
Elise led the succubus army towards the black monsters and began the final harvest.
The black monsters fell to the ground one after another. After wriggling for a while, they went completely silent.
At this time, Ren Qi also asked the few succubi around to see if they could collect the soul power of these black monsters.
If they could harvest the soul power of so many black monsters, it would be a great harvest.
However, soon, a succubus returned and replied, “Master, only a part of the soul power of the black monsters below can be harvested and used. Most of it can’t be harvested. The soul power has been completely messed up.”
“About one-twentieth of the soul power can be harvested.”
One-twentieth of the soul power could still be considered a good harvest due to the large number of black monsters.
Li Tianlan did not choose to collect this soul power.
After all, Ren Qi was here to help her out, so these spoils of war should be given to him as a reward.
Soon, the black monsters in front of them were all killed. Only a few were left, and they were being quickly eliminated.
“Phew, it’s finally over.” Li Tianlan let out a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on her face.
This kind of black monster was still very terrifying. When it pressed down on people, it gave them a very strong pressure.
“Thank you, Ren Qi.” Li Tianlan looked at Ren Qi and thanked him softly.
Ren Qi smiled and said, “We’re old friends. There’s no need to thank me. You helped me before.”
Li Linan pouted and said unhappily, “Sister Tianlan, you haven’t thanked me yet.”
Li Tianlan shook her head and said, “Okay, okay, okay. How could I forget Little Linan? It’s all thanks to Linan who brought so many mithril cannons. Otherwise, Sister Tianlan wouldn’t know what to do.”
Li Lin ‘an waved her hand and said with a smile, “Sister Tianlan, you don’t have to thank me. This is what I should do.”
Li Tianlan smiled and was about to say something when her body suddenly stiffened. Her gaze shifted to the place behind the scattered black monsters, and her face was full of shock!
“That! What is that thing?!”
Ren Qi frowned when he heard Li Tianlan’s words. Then, he followed Li Tianlan’s gaze and looked over.
A huge golden creature passed through the dense black fog in the distance and appeared at the place where the black monsters had appeared earlier!
