Chapter 1808: Chapter 947: A Dark Cloud (Part 3)
No choice left.
"I can only sacrifice my life to delay them," Jindai Yunlo said with a smile. "I had a sliver of hope that I might survive to have a drink with Qing Chen, but it seems there’s no chance of that now. I can’t even stop the Silver City Fleet, let alone the Storm City Fleet."
He patted the horn on the head of the white Azure Dragon: "I hope your next master won’t have such a bitter fate! Let’s go, to our deaths!"
This noble scion, even facing death, spoke with such nonchalance.
The massive body of the white Azure Dragon swayed, quickly catching up to the Silver City Fleet like a fish swimming rapidly through the sea, as Jindai Yunlo waved his arms atop the dragon’s head: "Hey, your opponent is here, don’t run, come and fight!"
In the next moment, Jindai Yunlo and Bai Rongyi plunged into the fleet, as his remaining summoned spirits manifested one by one, leaping onto the tops of floating airships, bearing the interceptive barrages to damage them.
Unfortunately, Jindai Yunlo himself was still merely an A-Class, and his other summoned spirits had very limited destructive power.
For instance, Ma Mian Luo Cha barely managed to slash open an airship’s power compartment before being blown back to the Divine Destiny Bridge by a drone explosion.
Without the Hundred-Eyed Demon, Jindai Yunlo simply couldn’t stop this fleet.
Actually, he did have a way.
As Zero had said, it came down to whether he had the resolve to gouge out the eyes of Jindai Sorajima and others, allowing the Hundred-Eyed Demon to break through in the midst of battle and become a complete form.
But Jindai Yunlo couldn’t bear to do it, and this was why he knew he couldn’t be a competent commander; he wasn’t suited to be one, nor was he capable of being ruthless.
A competent commander must learn to be decisive and pragmatic.
At this moment, Jindai Yunlo was also being hurt by the aftermath of a drone’s self-destruction, yet he had no intention of retreating.
The dorayaki from Nanluo Street.
The izakayas in Hanagi.
The rice wine on Chang’an Street.
And the loquat and the old lady in that small courtyard.
Jindai Yunlo felt that his entire life flashed quickly before his eyes in a brief breath.
But in the end, what he saw wasn’t all this, but the little girl who followed him around like a shadow since childhood.
— Hey, stop following me, you always make such a big noise, you get caught every time you steal loquats!
— What’s it to you if I drink with other women? Why do you chase them away?
— Don’t you know our clan is cursed by Genji, destined that none can find release? So don’t develop any feelings for me; when someone dies, it will make everyone sad!
— Wait, don’t cry!
Thinking of all this, Jindai Yunlo suddenly smiled.
But as he smiled, he couldn’t keep smiling... He looked up in surprise at the sky, where thick clouds covered the moon.
These were clouds that shouldn’t have appeared here, just like the northern homeland he shouldn’t yearn for in Jindai Yunlo’s life and memories.
On the flagship of Silver City, the Silver City Duke couldn’t help but sneer as he watched: "Overestimating oneself... Wait, what’s that above? When did it appear?"
"Just appeared!" the personnel in the airship screamed. "No, it’s an aerial fortress! How can there be an aerial fortress here?!"
The Scepter No. is in the southwest, the Qing Shan Ship is in City 10, and Jindai’s aerial fortress has been controlled by the Duke of Storm City, so why is there an aerial fortress here now?
Wait a minute.
This is the Chen Clan’s aerial fortress!
This is the God Ship!
Before the Silver City Duke could figure out what was happening, the black aerial fortress, like dark clouds in the sky, suddenly fired its main firepower electromagnetic cannon.
With a boom, the shell pierced through both the Silver City’s flagship and the Silver City Duke.
An aerial fortress is always a key factor in aerial warfare, enough to change any situation.
Just like demigods in the world of Transcendents, they are irreplaceable.
