Chapter 447 Escape and Counterattack
Chapter 447 Escape and Counterattack
Twenty days after the project started.
In the construction area of the artillery tower, inside the alchemy workshop.
Jiang He finished his practice for the day, and the intermittent accumulation allowed the seventh vortex of the Sun Breathing Method to take shape in his body.
[Hint: Your overall attributes +1]
[Hint: Your Burning is promoted to Undying Level 1, awakening the ultimate ability Burning Armor - causing 50% additional energy damage to armor-type defense]
[Hint: Your Black Sun Core has been slightly improved]
[Strength: 41+2 → 42+2]
[Agility: 43+2 → 44+2]
[Constitution: 41+2→42+2]
[Spirit: 41+2→42+2]
[Charm: 48+8→49+8]
The attribute value of 41 is the dividing line between silver and gold.
Due to status factors, Jiang He can only increase his attributes to a maximum of fifty before his life level jumps, and his charm has been certified by its origin, so the numerical enhancement is relatively free.
call!
Outside the alchemy workshop, there was the sound of thousands of flags waving. Twenty days later, the construction of the artillery tower was completed.
He Xiaoqi hurried over, followed by Si Chuan who was confused and Yu Jianyue who was drunk.
"Boss..." He Xiaoqi asked anxiously, "When will we take action?"
Jiang He stood up and snapped his fingers.
"Now."
……
At the same time, the Fortress of Infernal Affairs.
A spider demon had just received today's dirt cake, and after only a few bites, it collapsed with a bang. Dark red lines spread through its blood vessels, its bones and flesh quickly rotted, its eyeballs fell out, and a large number of blood flies were born.
In several large construction areas, prisoners of all races fell to the ground in groups, and a dense and creepy buzzing sound was heard.
In the engineering area, the alchemist who was secretly studying the core matrix was startled. Under his gaze, a bright red matrix like a spider emerged on the back of the solidified matrix. The upper and lower layers were extremely tight and the craftsmanship was extremely high.
"Colorless and tasteless."
"Is this... an epic strain!?"
The alchemist collapsed on the ground. It was like a polluted water source. The new earth cakes that were produced were all highly poisonous.
At the same time, countless prisoners died in the entire fortress, and billions of blood flies appeared, covering the sky and the earth, and then organizedly attacked the administrators.
A golden relative attacked fearlessly, and the thorn spell strangled a large number of blood flies, but only a moment later, the first emperor's divine punishment curse came down. The status of this title is immortal, which means that everyone below the level of a hero will have to endure the ruthless pouring of true damage.
Death has come to the Infernal Fortress.
Dry wails rose one after another, and lives were extinguished one after another like candles in the wind under the ravages of the hellish smallpox disease. Corpses were lying all over the ground in various regions. The once bustling fortress now looked like a dead ghost town.
"Check it for me!!"
In the Duke's Castle in the center of the fortress, Duke Merrick was furious. He sensed the deaths of several of his relatives.
The amount of source blood that a vampire can bestow in his lifetime is extremely limited. Duke Merrick immediately disappeared from the spot and tried his best to move forward to provide support everywhere, as if his house was on fire. Regardless of the fortress, he had to ensure the survival of his relatives first.
For a time, the Wujian Fortress became a sea of thorns.
Heroic creatures attack at all costs, with incredible power.
……
In the construction area, several golden officers led tens of thousands of human beings into the artillery tower. Someone issued a temporary notice that everyone present was an accomplice who knew about the crime. If they did not leave, they would be responsible for their own life and death if they stayed.
As the gate closed, the alchemical machinery started running frantically, and the turret suddenly changed into the shape of a rocket. Orange-red flames gushed out from the bottom, thick smoke billowed up, and the rocket rose from the ground, speeding up, leaving a long white trail behind it.
People looked down from the windows, and many of them cried for joy. The only fate they would have for staying in the Fortress of Inferno would be death in endless hard labor.
A golden prisoner calmed down and looked around, then came to the cockpit in confusion.
"Senior Wuyang, where are Colonel He and Miss Yu?"
"Haha, they have a mission, so they can't find it."
"Jiang He" turned around and showed a bright smile.
The golden prisoner felt relieved. To be honest, this was the first time he saw the other person smile.
The rocket drew an arc high in the sky.
In the Wujian Fortress, Duke Merrick suddenly raised his head and roared ferociously, "Still want to leave!?"
The mythical form, Plague of Thorns, is unlocked.
The epic curse, Bloodbound Spinning Wheel, is activated.
Before it could completely leave the fortress, countless blood lines emerged from the rocket's body, like long blood-red snakes, assimilating and corroding various mechanical parts, and finally suddenly tightened.
boom!
The "Paolou" rocket exploded at high altitude.
"Glory to the Maharaja!"
Death struck, the Evil Guard's ultimate transformation technique disappeared, and he embraced death without fear.
In an instant, accompanied by a rain of fire, the death fog that had accumulated in the fuel tank for twenty days fell from the sky like a sea, and soon completely enveloped the periphery of the fortress.
"Imperial Lieutenant Jiang Wuyang, I want him alive or dead." Duke Merrick roared, "He's wanted! Find him!"
The swarms of blood flies were forcibly suppressed by the Duke's violence. Thick thorns formed a forest, absorbing and purifying the hellish smallpox. Without a source of continuous release, it would be difficult for a single extraordinary disease to completely defeat the heroic Duke.
Construction area, alchemy workshop.
The no entry sign fell at the door.
The old baroness kicked the door open angrily, and a group of people behind her rummaged through the drawers and finally found a secret passage under the workbench.
"Jiang Wuyang, I trust you so much!"
"You deserve to die!"
The old lady almost lost her mind. She shouted angrily: "Gather all the active guards and send them out to search every corner outside the fortress. Inform the deputy warden. I will go down to chase them first. Ask him to come to support us as soon as possible!"
"clear."
"clear."
The old lady leaped suddenly and rushed into the tunnel, a thorn sword in her hand drinking blood.
……
In front of the fortress gate.
Thousands of search teams set out one after another, each group of ten moving in different directions. The military jeeps were as aggressive as a pack of wolves leaving their nest.
In a jeep, the vampire viscount was sitting in the passenger seat, and suddenly a foul odor hit his nose.
"What is the taste."
The vampire viscount turned around and found that the guard uniforms of the two barons behind him were stained with black blood, and the stench was extremely pungent.
"What's going on with you two?"
Jiang He felt helpless. The two guards who were parasitized by blood flies had already rotted because of the long time, and the blood had even stained their clothes. In the fortress with no sanitary conditions, it was not a big deal, after all, there were many people who defecated directly in their trouser pockets. But in the closed car, this could not be concealed.
"So what?" He Xiaoqi replied with a grim smile.
In the boundless fog of death, the jeep shook, and then six bodies rolled to the ground as the car door opened.
Inside the car, Jiang He canceled the Ultimate Transformation Technique.
Yu Jianyue picked up the wine jug and gulped down a few gulps. As the overall situation was at stake, this young lady from a noble family still had some sense of propriety. In order to escape without getting into any trouble, she gritted her teeth and gave up drinking for a long time.
Si Chuan gripped the steering wheel tightly, the free wind blowing in from the window made him unable to help but shout out loudly.
He Xiaoqi turned back from the co-pilot seat, looked at someone, and asked, "Boss, what should we do next?"
Twenty days of obedience had made him develop a habit.
Jiang He raised his eyebrows and said, "How about I send it directly to your homes?"
"Okay, okay." Yu Jianyue said drunkenly.
"Can it really work?" He Xiaoqi couldn't help but feel a little skeptical, but he still chose to believe it.
Jiang He almost laughed out of anger. As a new player, he couldn't even recognize the road signs.
"You guys discuss it among yourselves. I don't know the way."
……
The Fortress of Infernal Affairs.
The deputy warden of the blood clan followed the old baroness into the passage, but after the two walked more than ten kilometers down, they found that the passage in front of them had not been dug through at all and was pitch black.
"No, look at the traces around it. It's possible that it was dug through and then filled in."
"Let's split up and go back one by one," said the old lady.
The deputy warden shook his head and said, "No, Jiang Wuyang has an imperial colonel with him. If they can unlock the open stone shackles, you will be left alone and most likely die in the battle. Our family has already suffered heavy losses." The two were in a dilemma.
In the fortress statistics room, a red-haired young man broke into the room.
Marquis Bart searched for information quickly, his face looking crazy.
"The hellish disease is the same as the residual life world."
"I know you're here."
"The thing flying into the sky is a gun tower... The person in charge of the gun tower project is Jiang Wuyang."
"Imprisoned in the core prison of the East District...Yu Jianyue, He Xiaoqi, Si Chuan...are all defeated soldiers from Cangwu Province."
Marquis Bart suddenly looked up with a fierce look in his eyes.
"We'll meet outside Cangwu Fortress."
Marquis Bart turned and left. This choice might not be the right one, but it was the most likely direction at the moment. He planned to intercept the target directly on his way back to the empire. No matter what the result was, it was better than waiting there.
……
Five hours after the outbreak of the epidemic in the Fortress of Infernal Affairs.
A military jeep bypassed the moat, then crossed the death fog, and then crossed the chaotic area of the border and entered the border of the Empire on the Everlasting Dark Continent.
The long journey at full load caused most of the alchemical parts of the military jeep to be scrapped, but fortunately there were professionals on board who made simple repairs and continued on their way.
The terrain around the border is extremely complex, with wastelands and mountains interlaced, and some small settlements dotted among the ruins of ancient cities, relying on the broken source veins underground to survive. Occasionally, strange areas where source power is distorted can be seen. Some places are full of dangers due to source power riots, and even worse, void storms are echoing in some places.
As we move forward, the ground becomes gradually flatter, and we can vaguely see traces of human repairs, with withered trees on both sides.
The military jeep was driving fast in the wilderness, leaving a trail of dust. Jiang He, who had been resting with his eyes closed in the back seat, suddenly opened his eyes at some point.
In an instant, he stretched out his leg and kicked Si Chuan who was sitting in the front driver's seat, then suddenly disappeared. The extreme violence destroyed the seat, and the sole of his shoe was imprinted on the man's back. The temporary driver smashed the windows, hood and engine, and flew a thousand meters away.
boom!
A streak of blood fell from the sky.
The blood sword completely destroyed the jeep, leaving a dark vertical pit in its place.
Si Chuan stood up in a cloud of dust and looked back with lingering fear. If he was hit by the attack just now, the core of his domain would be lost and he would be powerless to resist.
On the other side, Yu Jianyue calmly withdrew from the bombing point, with a thick layer of dawn source power protecting her body. She looked up and saw a burly figure floating high in the sky.
The man had goat-like horns and skin as red as blood. He was breathing heavily, obviously having just finished a long run. His golden state had been activated, revealing his devilish appearance, with strands of blood lingering around him.
——The Demon Lord Bart.
"So it's the Blood Demon Clan that's as famous as the Seriphos Clan." Yu Jianyue smiled meaninglessly, and the drunkenness in his eyes gradually faded away.
He Xiaoqi tried his best to climb out of the deep pit, with a piece of sword tip remaining on his back. The blow almost killed him on the spot. The tearing and blood erosion caused his internal organs to hurt so much.
"Jiang Wuyang!"
In mid-air, Bart completely ignored the other three ants, just grinned at someone and said, "Or, Rhine Augustus, I finally caught you."
As soon as he finished speaking, thousands of bright red sword feathers suddenly extended from the huge membrane wings behind Bart. As the membrane wings vibrated, the sword feathers burst out one after another and entangled with each other in mid-air. The smooth sword body was like a mirror, making the sharp sword light one step faster.
——Kaleidoscope of blood.
Swords fell like rain.
Jiang He activated the God Follows Heaven Movement and went straight into the decisive battle mode. In an instant, his whole body seemed to be burning, and his violent aura was like a tsunami that made everyone present breathless.
boom!
Jiang He pushed off the ground and almost turned into a streak of light.
The sword light attacked and was hit directly by the figure. The surging dark source power seemed to have encountered an unshakable reef, shattered into scattered silk threads, and cut countless thin cracks on the ground.
Unleashing his extraordinary speed, at the moment of reaching the peak, Jiang He stomped the ground brazenly. The ground within a hundred meters in radius cracked and collapsed. His figure soared into the sky, and smoke and dust rolled up.
shhhhhh!
The sword feathers hit the target but shattered in front of the rock-hard body.
On the ground, He Xiaoqi was stunned. As an eyewitness of the sword feathers, he was very clear about the power of this thing. Such a number of sword feathers only left shallow wounds on someone. This could not be explained by a strong physique.
boom!
The figure rose into the sky like a cannonball.
Bart was confused and dodged.
Wings suddenly grew out from behind Jiang He. As his body spun, three thousand six hundred blood feathers flew out simultaneously. Each one was like a sword, containing immortal-level sharpness and strength.
Bart gritted his teeth and flapped his wings again, with sword feathers flying out.
Two extremely dangerous storms collided in the sky. The loud sounds of rock and iron breaking were endless. The overflowing wind was like a sharp knife, echoing with low sobs.
……
ground.
Yu Jianyue took out a heavy sniper rifle from somewhere, and terrifying power gathered at the muzzle of the gun.
The gun body adopts a composite design that combines sharp edges and smooth curves. The gun body is covered with special source power armor plates. The matte black background is matched with white energy flow patterns, making the gun black and white, surrounded by the two source powers of darkness and dawn.
"Natural enemy: small bullets."
"Adjust to the source of dawn power."
Yu Jianyue licked the corner of his mouth, aimed at the enemy and pulled the trigger decisively. The source of energy in his body was exhausted and the muzzle of the gun suddenly burst into light.
In the world of eternal darkness, practitioners will use source power to ignite nine source power nodes in sequence, and the first node, the fourth node, and the seventh node will successively give birth to source power talents.
In the Bronze Age, the source of power was gaseous.
In the Silver Age, the Force was in liquid form.
In the Golden Age, the Source Force was solid.
As the times progress, the three source power talents will continue to strengthen, and when promoted to gold, the source power talents will condense into source crystals, and a part of the gold can use this as the core to build a field.
One of Yu Jianyue’s talents is called “Glimpses”, but she prefers to call it Super Hit.
boom!
In the boundless storm, the energy bomb passed over someone's shoulder and hit the membrane wing of Marquis Bart. The natural enemy bomb, composed of massive and pure dawn source power, had a significant damage increase on dark creatures, shattering the membrane wing in one fell swoop.
Marquis Bart's face changed drastically.
This kind of injury is far from being a serious blow, but at this critical moment of the fight, it is enough to affect the outcome of the battle.
At the moment when the enemy lost the ability to balance and adjust, Jiang He activated the Flash Elegy and flashed forward a hundred meters.
Boom boom boom!
One after another, he threw out powerful punches without any fancy moves.
Marquis Bart's abdomen, heart, cheeks, and neck exploded one after another. He couldn't believe the sudden changes he was seeing. The enemy's attack contained horrible real damage, and almost ignored his own golden demon body of the immortal level.
A silver spear suddenly appeared in Jiang He's hand.
The evil of this world blessed the silver spear, and the weight of the already shocking weapon rose sharply. Wisps of black electric arcs flashed on the spear, and the spear tip was controlled at an extremely fast speed to chop straight down.
All the hatred in the world is contained in it.
Boom!
Marquis Bart fell to the ground with a loud bang, and a large number of abyss-like cracks spread out. Si Chuan and He Xiaoqi fled desperately.
Click!
The core of the domain is shattered
Marquis Bart lost his golden state. He looked up at the sky unwillingly, then rushed on the ground. All his blood flowed out and evolved into thousands of swords, spears, and halberds.
Jiang He cancelled his Shen Sui Tian Dong technique and threw down his silver spear.
The gun of immortal destiny and victory oath.
The light of judgment descended from the sky and knocked Marquis Bart back to the ground. The tip of the gun pierced through his head, destroying his life and soul. The cruel light of the gun swept out.
Jiang He landed and took back the spear. As Beelzebub, he had 50% full true damage and total damage immunity special attack against demons.
Objectively speaking, the relative improvement of the devil's special attack is better than the gold state. He felt that killing Marquis Bart this time was easier than hunting down a normal elite. The opponent's attack hit him without any pain at all.
Tear it apart!
Jiang He cut off the prey's head, and then stuffed the peak gold body back into the portable imperial city, adding +1 to the kill required for the joint promotion mission.
"You're going to die now?"
"So fast."
In the distance, Si Chuan and He Xiaoqi looked at each other. The peak of gold was enough to become the leader of a middle-class family in the empire, or a major general in the military, or a governor of a county.
Yu Jianyue whistled, her bright red hair flying. As the only assist in the entire game, she thought she had made a significant contribution.
