Chapter 1902 - 987: Mercy (Part 3)
This is why he told the Duke of Storm City that he would help the Drama Master Clan resolve their final hidden danger. His most conservative estimate for this battle was to capture Jindai Yunlo alive. Even if he failed, he would still kill Jindai Yunlo and the Demigods who participated in the ambush against him.
Dragging two Demigods down to hell with you is a profitable deal.
Wang Xiaojiu retreated calmly, as a viper poked its head out of the old king’s mouth, while two more vipers crawled out from his eyes... No one knew how many black vipers birthed under his skin.
The viper from the old king’s mouth lunged at Wang Xiaojiu’s face like lightning, forcing Wang Xiaojiu to raise the Guillotine long knife in defense.
Clang!
The viper bounced harmlessly to the ground, but Wang Xiaojiu felt a sudden numbness in his arm. The speed of the viper was comparable to that of a Demigod.
The key issue was that this viper was a taboo item. If it wasn’t damaged, it would relentlessly pursue its target to the ends of the earth and could not be contained.
Just then, a gleam of black knife light sprang from the side, splitting the viper in two!
Wang Xiaojiu glanced at Sanyue, standing nearby: "The knife from the Fire Pit?"
"No, it’s Qing Chen’s," Sanyue shook his head.
Before Qing Chen left for the West Continent, he left all the taboo items at Ginkgo Mountain, to be distributed by the old man to those most suitable.
Sanyue appeared on this battlefield at the old man’s request, carrying taboo item ACE-001, the God’s knife, to eradicate the myriad vipers.
This God’s knife could even cut other taboo items.
The vipers within the old king’s body surged out like a fountain, scattering to attack Sanyue, Li Dongze, Ye Wan, Jindai Yunlo, and Wang Xiaojiu.
Sanyue continuously swung his knife, slashing a total of eighteen times, splitting the freshly-emerged myriad vipers and the old king’s body into pieces, with the vipers inside completely destroyed.
The Drama Masters rarely lost, thanks to their excessive scheming, always utilizing even death to create opportunities and benefits for their clan.
This time, however, the Drama Master’s scheming lost to the Ginkgo Mountain’s celestial chessboard.
Sanyue picked up the old king’s hand and head from the ground, placing them into a burlap satchel, while the newly arrived Lin Xiaoxiao frowned: "Do you have such a hobby?"
Sanyue gave him a cold look: "These are useful."
"What for?"
"Fayun Temple’s Wooden Fish needs the head for interrogation," Sanyue explained. "King Roosevelt’s secrets must be numerous."
"And his right hand?" Lin Xiaoxiao asked.
"That’s for the old man of Ginkgo Mountain. I don’t know what he plans to use it for," Sanyue shook his head.
Wang Xiaojiu looked up to see the Fifth Princess at the floating airship’s hatch waving goodbye. This Fifth Princess, having betrayed her own father, was about to leave the Eastern Continent immediately, returning to the West Continent to assume the reins of the Kingdom’s power.
She had no intention of continuing the fight in the Eastern Continent, nor did she plan to defeat the clan alongside the Eastern Continent.
"Goodbye, NO.9, and good luck to you!" The Fifth Princess smiled and blessed them as the floating airship ascended.
Wang Xiaojiu watched her leave with a cold glare: "Aren’t you staying for a meal before you go? You’ve come this far."
The Fifth Princess beamed, "If I stay, won’t you be the next to kill me? Before I go, a friendly reminder: the royal Air Force fleet is not as simple as it seems. I happen to know they have even fiercer weapons hidden, so you should be careful!"
"What do you mean?" Wang Xiaojiu frowned?
The Fifth Princess laughed: "The Hundred-Eyed Demon cuts the Aerial Fortress like slicing a cake, but it only sliced open one side. The other side is like the side of the moon you can never see; that’s where it’s most dangerous."
The floating airship gradually drifted away until it became a black dot on the horizon.
Wang Xiaojiu gazed in the direction of the Aerial Fortress. After a thirty-kilometer chase, they were finally at an angle to see the other side of the fortress.
Behind the untouched section of the royal Aerial Fortress, where the Hundred-Eyed Demon had not struck, the protective hull slowly opened like scales, revealing rows of nuclear-powered War Robots standing inside!
There were as many as ten thousand!
In an instant, the once dormant War Robots’ eyes suddenly lit up with ice-blue radiance!
This was the real weapon the Roosevelt Kingdom intended to bring to the battlefield, even more flexible than floating airships, yet possessing aerial strike capabilities equal to them!
...
...
The Aerial Fortress’s main firepower gun was so overwhelmingly powerful that people gradually forgot its primary purpose at creation was not for aerial strikes, but for... transport.
Initially, the Aerial Fortress had served as an aerial supply station for fighter jets and floating airships. As technology evolved, it gradually gained powerful heavy artillery capabilities.
Now, the West Continent restored the Aerial Fortress to its original function, transporting the most formidable nuclear-powered War Robots to the battlefield here.
It seemed that as long as they successfully arrived, the scales of victory would tilt irrevocably.
Qing Chen had previously assessed that a single nuclear-powered War Robot possessed the combat capabilities of an A-Class Superhuman. Now, with 12,000 War Robots emerging, it was absolutely beyond what Wang Xiaojiu and his allies could contend with, even the Hundred-Eyed Demon included.
Moreover, the Hundred-Eyed Demon had already been surrounded by over three hundred remaining floating airships and tens of thousands of drones.
Wang Xiaojiu lifted the Guillotine long knife and shouted, "I was wondering where all the West Continent’s War Robots had disappeared to, turns out they’re all here. Run, run, run! Quickly, run!"
