Chapter 555: Chapter 439: The Flair of That Strike
"Hahahaha! What a fool, Long Yi! Does he really think he can wipe out my Hell Dragon Warrior like this?!" Yake, who was spectating the battle, burst into laughter.
"No! It’s not Long Yi!" Tilian exclaimed.
And sure enough! Above in the sky, a fireball was plunging downward at a high-speed!
"What is that? A meteorite?" Yake couldn’t see clearly.
"Evil Eye! Zoom in closer!" Tilian yelled.
The view was magnified and wee Ruosha was seen taking cover behind a massive anchor, descending from the sky with a howl!
"Such speed! How is it possible!" Yake couldn’t believe it! Behind Ruosha was a trail left by air heated to super-sonic temperature!
Without them noticing, Ruosha had hurled herself up into the sky thousands of meters high by repeatedly altering the mass of the colossal anchor!
Similarly, Ruosha was speeding downward, the acceleration compounded by gravity.
"Die!"
The Kela particles surged as Ruosha kicked with all her might, launching herself away from the anchor which sped up once more. Suddenly, space quivered and Ruosha was bizarrely suspended mid-air. In an instant, she reduced her mass to virtually zero. The spatial vibration allowed her to stay in place and having nearly zero mass meant her inertia was also zero, enabling her to stop abruptly without getting injured.
However, the massive anchor was burdened with maximum mass!
Boom!
The anchor landed squarely on the just-reformed Hell Dragon Warrior, burying both of them deep into the ground! Immediately after, a deep resonating boom echoed!
Hummmm---
Long Yi’s eyes widened, simultaneously sensing a momentary sense of spatial displacement around him! It was the shock core within the anchor!
Run!
Long Yi turned and ran.
Behind him, the humming grew louder and louder!
Boom!
Like a miniature nuclear bomb being detonated, the shock wave created a mushroom cloud of soil and rock that soared into the sky!
Long Yi watched from afar. As the dust settled, he was completely shocked.
The craters that Long Yi and the Hell Dragon Warrior had created from their previous explosions were ordinary-sized. But this one was akin to a crater caused by an asteroid collision.
This giant crater not only encompassed the previous two, it was also bottomlessly deep. The base had melted and solidified due to the instantaneous heat and pressure. The Hell Dragon Warrior had vanished entirely. Ruosha hovered in the air, her hand covering her mouth, her eyes full of astonishment. Even she couldn’t believe the destruction she had wrought!
The shock core within the anchor was originally intended for demolishing asteroids. To activate it, a certain level of severe shock was necessary. Hence Long Yi and Ruosha had deliberated on how to accelerate the anchor. Although they had tested it before, it was merely a basic experiment. They had never truly detonated the shock core. This time, Ruosha had deployed it with full force so the shock core was triggered by Kela particles, causing severe spatial vibrations.
The result was as witnessed.
The Hell Dragon Warrior was utterly shattered, leaving no trace whatsoever.
Equally speechless were Yake and Tilian.
Both couldn’t think of anything to say for a while. Yake made a comparative analysis. If he were the target of such a strike, would he be able to survive?
If he fully unleashed his power, perhaps he might. But this was only in his present state.
The answer was uncertain.
"Your Majesty, I believe we have learned enough," Tilian suddenly spoke.
"Yes, Long Yi now knows our trump card, but we also know his," Yake replied, beads of sweat forming on his half-face.
"Whether this power comes from the girl or her weapon, regardless of the answer, its impact is destructive. Fortunately, it takes a long time to unleash such a strike," Tilian said.
"Withdraw! The Gentle Wind Plain is his now," Yake said, his human eyes trembling uncontrollably.
This blow nearly drained all of Ruosha’s ability to manipulate Kela particles. Fortunately, it’s not a one-time ability and will recover after a day’s rest. Long Yi, holding a somewhat exhausted Ruosha, jumped to the top of Bajie’s head for them to take flight. Seeing the retreating Black Dragon Knights in the distance, a smile appeared on Long Yi’s face.
Although they repelled the enemy, it felt like they had come out slightly short! Long Yi didn’t know that this strike was so powerful. If he did, he would have saved it for the ultimate battle.
After all, the real effect of this move is its surprise. The acceleration process in the sky is too long. If the enemy intends to intercept and intercepts early in the acceleration process, this move would be rendered useless.
But that is not a problem. Opportunities are created by people, and at least this move has subdued the Black Dragon Empire for a significant period of time.
The war was won!
Beyond those assigned to guard the new borders, the entire army was returning triumphant!
In this war, the White Dragon Knights initially had some advantages. However, they were initially suppressed when Black Dragon Knights turned into Dragon Warriors. But after adjusting their tactics, the White Dragon Knights managed to recover some of the disadvantages. Although the two sides cannot be said to be equal, the White Dragon Knights were not suppressed, and it could be regarded as evenly matched!
The ground battle armor units participated in actual combat for the first time. Whether it was the initial interception of the Black Dragon’s Dragon Breath missiles, supporting the air force, or later fighting against the beast legions of the Black Dragon Empire, they all performed commendably. The advantage of the Light Cannon’s long-range attack was to strike first against the enemy. The close combat ability of the armored warriors was a decisive factor in determining the outcome of the battle. Facing a large group of enemies, the armored warriors turned the tide of the battlefield, fully displaying the combat skill of completely abandoning defense taught to them by Long Yi!
But the real decider of this battle was that explosion.
Many people who did not personally stand on the battlefield still saw everything that happened on the battlefield through various means. The final explosion not only scared Yake and Tilian, but also scared every emperor, including Emperor Kirei-Kandela of the White Dragon Empire.
Kirei had no idea that Long Yi had quietly produced such a terrifying weapon! And more outrageously, the one wielding this weapon was a cute little loli!
A little loli is for cherishing! What a bastard, do you not understand this?!
Of course, this kind of thought was deeply buried, there was now peace with the triumphant return of the warriors and post-war arrangements to be made.
The fallen warriors would be sent to the most honorable national Heroes’ Cemetery, and their families would be wellooked after. Unlike the dejection following the previous war, this time it was different.
Though the warriors’ families tearfully bid their loved ones farewell, their faces were filled with smiles! Because this victory meant that their loved ones did not die in vain!
However, the atmosphere in the War Committee was quite different.
With the heads of the military having just finished their war debrief, and the Emperor having just left, the top brass of the military sat together, exchanging glances.
The army, which had rarely been given much importance in the past, had finally had its day, as the armored warriors were under army jurisdiction. For reasons every understood, the 500 battle-armored warriors who participated in the war were all assigned to Kai Long. Their valiant efforts had indeed increased respect for the army, and they had successfully neutralized the long-range bombing of the Black Dragon Knights. Facing the sudden emergence of Crystal Beasts from the Black Dragon Empire, the armored warriors bravely took them all down!
Nothing else needed to said, but now Kai Long looked at every face carrying a smile. As an army general, nothing could make him happier than that. Although Kai Long had seized the limelight this time, the other two generals also had smiles on their faces. After all, this was one of the most glorious moments for the army, the first time they had played such an important role in the war and not merely existed to clean up the battlefield afterwards.
In this era dominated by Dragon Knights, whoever could pose more threat to the opponent’s Dragon Knights could become the main force on the battlefield. Only the Dragon Knights used to accomplish this task, but now the armored warriors had also stepped forward.
In the end, one of the Dragon Knight group leaders couldn’t take it anymore. The leader of the first Dragon Knights, Kovo-Kandela, said: "I have to tell you, my brother Kai Long, you can’t keep smiling, your old face, which hasn’t smiled for too many years, might get cramped."
Hearing Kovo say this, Kai Long seemed even more delighted: "No problem, I always carry a doctor."
"I have to say, brother, you’re not doing it right. However, how powerful your armored warriors may be, they are just auxiliary forces. The real main force is us, the Dragon Knights. Why do I feel like you’re laughing as if your armored warriors chased away the Black Dragon Knights!" Kovo retorted sarcastically.
"No problem, we’ll take it slow," Kai Long said.
"What do you mean by taking it slow! Do you know what I’m saying?" Kovo shook his head helplessly, obviously Kai Long had not taken his words seriously.
"What I mean by ’taking it slow’ is that we’ll eventually be able to defeat the Dragon Knights! Ah, that boy Long Yi is going to have dinner with Ai Lin at my house tonight. If you guys have nothing else to do, I’ll be leaving now!" Kai Long, who typically only presented his iron-blooded and composed side, become this cheerful, showing how important this victory was for him.
However, some people managed to sniff some foulness in what Kai Long had just said.
"Wait! Don’t leave!" Fedinan, the second Dragon Knight’s group leader, shouted at Kai Long, who had already stood up, "Did you say Long Yi is coming over to your house, just to eat?"
Kai Long burst into laughter: "Hahaha! Who knows!"
Most of the White Dragon Empire’s military personnel reached a consensus to always be aware of Long Yi’s whereabouts. Basically, wherever he goes, there are drastic changes.
And the usually pragmatic Long Yi would absolutely not roam around aimlessly under normal circumstances.
Could it be, this cunning man Long Yin is going to favor Kai Long again?!
Immediately, several Dragon Knights Group Leaders asked to be guests at Kai Long’s house, but they were all turned down by Kai Long. On the other hand, the other two army generals appeared rather calm, knowing that no matter what benefits Long Yi provided Kai Long, they would eventually be divided among all the army generals. Kai Long naturally wouldn’t hog it all. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to visit qidian.com to vote or send tickets to recommend this book.
