Chapter 429: Final attack
The battle started very typically but ended abruptly. When the nine level-five beasts from God Hall and the Liao Brothers battled, both sides chose to stop.
They showed their trump cards and the probing ended.
Strictly put, Cloud Peak won this round. After all, the price they paid was the Liao Brothers being injured and the four demon crystal guns already destroyed.
Seven level-five beasts were killed on the Counter Cloud Peak Alliance’s side, and two were severely injured.
Both sides sent people to carry back their wounded. Of course, Counter Cloud Peak Alliance wasn’t planning to give the demon crystals to Cloud Peak. Cloud Peak didn’t plan to snatch it, too, as if they did, it would be a new battle.
Some core members discussed something in a small room under the walls while looking at Le Dayuan fiddle with some parts on the table.
“The demon crystal weapons are good, but they aren’t durable. We don’t have the Smith job, so we can’t deal with the parts. The strength can’t reach the required level. One shot and the gun is useless; what a waste.”
Le Dayuan felt bad about the parts. These were the parts of those four guns. One shot, and they couldn’t be used anymore. This was also the problem that Le Dayuan couldn’t solve now.
Of course, he could use level-two crystals to fire, but that would only be two shots. The strength would also be insufficient to deal a fatal blow to evolved lifeforms level four and above.
“We are wasting not only these materials but also the demon crystals. Four shots, two dead and two injured, but we used four level-three demon crystals. Most of these parts were also traded for crystals. These few guns used around six level-three crystals.”
Little Tiger touched his chin.
Ye Zhongming left very good foundations for Cloud Peak when he left. Their starting point was the same as those super factions. But he also left Le Dayuan and Liu Zhenghong. These two core departments were money burners. Each experiment, be it a failure or success, spent demon crystals.
Liu Zhenghong even joked that Cloud Peak would have at least one more five-star evolution without those two labs.
Although it was a joke, it proved that the gene and demon crystal research burnt money.
But now it seemed like it was worth it. Without the two labs, Brother Liao and the demon crystal weapons, Cloud Peak would be in a tough battle, and many more deaths would occur.
“If Ye Zhongming dealt with these parts, they could block the level-four crystals’ energy blast. It could even hit and kill level-six lifeforms if strong enough to use level-five crystals.”
Hearing them mention Ye Zhongming, the people in the room went quiet.
This was a name that they tried to avoid mentioning.
“Don’t overthink; the battle is not over.” Xia Lei stood up with a complicated expression, and she motivated everyone. She then led people to patrol.
Within Counter Cloud Peak Alliance, a few five-star leaders gathered.
“Doctor He, what do you think?”
Little Nine asked the old man who joined in. He wore a white metallic protective suit, which was soft like cotton. On close look, one could notice the white light on it.
“Don’t ask me; I am not interested. Just hand Liu Zhenghong and her lab to me. I don’t care about anything else. Also, the three good monsters could be used; inform me when the time comes.”
Doctor He walked out.
Everyone was not surprised. This Doctor He was here for a short time, and he displayed his personality fully.
“Saint, should we continue to probe?”
Little Nine turned and asked Sound Iron.
“I don’t think we need to. Cloud Peak’s five-star evolution has made a move. The two core divisions have shown their research products. Unless Ye Zhongming revives, they have nothing else to rely on.”
Little Nine nodded, “Pang Cheng, what do you think?”
“I don’t have any thoughts; take Cloud Peak down and remember to give a few women to me.”
Lou Xiaoling was awkward when she heard that. She punched his fats but he just glanced at her and she didn’t dare to do anything.
“Anyone apart from Xia Lei.”
“I am okay with that.”
Little Nine looked at Wen Hong. His top warrior was already raring to go.
“Since that is the case, our injuries are mostly healed, and their trump cards are mostly used.”
“We shall do the final attack tomorrow.”
………………………………………………………………………………
Everyone in Cloud Peak could sense the nervous atmosphere on the second morning. The entire Counter Cloud Peak Alliance camp started getting busy since the first light. Everyone started moving and preparing for the final attack.
Not far from Cloud Peak was a group of cavaliers. On the eight healthy horses in the center was a circular device. Around it were four generators that provided it with energy.
Saint An Hu looked at the mountain and smiled.
In another direction, a green car was driving in the wilderness. There was no path, but it didn’t stop this vehicle. It drove like it was moving on flat land.
There were two firm-looking people in the car. The guy riding shotgun looked at the map and pointed to the driver. The driver glanced and nodded.
Counter Cloud Peak Alliance controlled a small village here. The zombies and mutated lifeforms were cleared. Some corpses had decomposed and gave off a stench.
An old well started to shake. A loud explosion, and a giant earthworm came out like a train. A guy wearing glasses looked out from the cabin in its head. After confirming his location, he clapped, and this earthworm climbed out and moved towards the mountain.
In an unknown forest, a thousand-men team was waiting there. They wore the same uniform, and all held grey weapons. They looked quietly at a giant metal gate.
In front of this team was a calm middle-aged guy. Behind him was a flagbearer holding a flag with huge words that danced in the wind.

At this time, Ye Zhongming buried the final crystal and scattered some of his blood. He ordered them to let the outside world in. Tong Hu, Ah Yang, Little Li, etc., gathered behind him again.
Ye Zhongming and these people stood quietly in a corner and looked at the only path up to Cloud Peak. He had a feeling that everything would start today.
8 am, the final attack began.
