Chapter 257: Chapter 225: Wow, It Can Even Fly
A Super Energy Warrior.
He had only just broken through to the Fourth-Rank, yet he could already control such a vast range of mixed energy. Not only that, he could even shape it into an "unknown fortress."
This was truly a terrifying thing.
Mu Feifei gritted her teeth. After the three Sixth-Rank warriors fell, she had a strong suspicion that there was some secret hidden within this unknown fortress.
Otherwise, it was impossible for three Sixth-Rank warriors working together to be killed so quickly!
In less than a minute, all three Sixth-Ranks were dead...
There was only one possibility: they were fought one-on-one, and they might have even been ambushed.
"What in the world is this thing?!" Mu Feifei’s eyes were blood-red.
Without this unknown fortress, the combined assault of the Fourth and Fifth-Ranks could have killed both Gao Neng and Fang Tangtang. It would only have been a matter of time.
But with this unknown fortress, the Fourth and Fifth-Ranks couldn’t even get near them!
This unknown fortress was like a "nail" driven into the Alien Race Alliance Army. If you couldn’t break it, you could only be endlessly attacked by it.
The already formidable Shen Ning’Er became even more terrifying with this unknown fortress, because you could no longer use numerical superiority to suppress her.
And Gao Neng had cleverly chosen the twenty Princes as his targets, which forced the high-rank warriors onto the defensive and ultimately threw the Alien Race Alliance Army into chaos.
So, the root of the problem was still Gao Neng.
As long as they killed Gao Neng, this unknown fortress would collapse on its own. At that point, Shen Ning’Er, Fang Tangtang, and Gui Zian would all die.
But how were they to kill him?
The numerical advantage of the Fourth, Fifth, and even Sixth-Ranks was useless against this unknown fortress. The only ones they could rely on were the high-rank warriors.
But these high-rank warriors were all focused on protecting the Princes.
They couldn’t be mobilized at all.
Unless...
’Send all these Princes inside. That way, the twenty high-rank warriors will definitely go in to save them!’ A plan flashed through Mu Feifei’s mind.
But she quickly dismissed the idea.
It wasn’t that she couldn’t do it. But if she really did, a few Princes would certainly die. When that happened, the Celestial Race would become the public enemy of all the other races.
The price was too high.
It could even lead to the annihilation of the Celestial Race.
In that case, the only remaining option was... to defend!
"Hahaha, how ridiculous! Truly ridiculous! An Alien Race Alliance Army of several thousand, twenty high-rank warriors, and over a hundred Sixth-Ranks... with this kind of fighting force, we can only defend against a few humans?!" Mu Feifei laughed, but it was a laugh of pure rage. This couldn’t be described by the word ’humiliation’ alone.
"Ninth Princess, we’ll leave the matters of the Eastern District Battlefield to you and your Eastern District. This Prince will be taking his leave!" a Prince called out from a distance, preparing to retreat.
"You dare!" Mu Feifei’s expression turned cold.
"Hmph, is the Ninth Princess trying to threaten me? Let me be blunt: you aren’t in a position to threaten us. Let’s go!" The Prince snorted coldly and turned to leave.
"Are you willing to accept this?! To just let these few humans go? What about the honor of your race? On future battlefields, will you bear a lifetime of humiliation for what happened today?" Mu Feifei’s tone was ice-cold.
"..." The Prince stopped, his fists clenched tight.
He wasn’t afraid of threats, but just as Mu Feifei said, he couldn’t abandon his dignity, much less bear such humiliation forever.
"We are not far from the Elf Royal City, nor are we that far from my Celestial Race Royal City. We’ll hold our ground!" Seeing the Prince hesitate, Mu Feifei immediately spoke again.
"Hold our ground?!" All the Princes looked at Mu Feifei.
"As long as you help us hold them here and prevent their escape, when the reinforcements from the Elf Royal City arrive, I, Mu Feifei, am willing to offer up a treasure of my Celestial Race!" Mu Feifei said.
"A treasure of the Celestial Race?!"
"All we have to do is hold them here?"
"We seem to have no reason to refuse such an offer."
After a moment of silence, the Princes all spoke up.
Attack!
It would cause them heavy losses.
However, if they switched their strategy to defense, that was a different matter. Defending wouldn’t cost them troops... Most importantly, it would allow them to preserve their dignity.
"Then we’ll defend! Surround them until they’re dead!"
"Alright!"
"Ninth Princess, please send the signal to the Elf Royal City at once!"
The Princes instantly reached a consensus.
Meanwhile, a cold smile played on Gao Neng’s lips.
It had to be said, this was an excellent strategy. It was perfectly tailored to his current situation. After all, what Gao Neng lacked most was time.
The only prerequisite was...
...that they could actually hold them!
’Since they’re scared, we’ll be the ones to attack!’ Gao Neng quickly made his decision. He couldn’t let the Alien Race Alliance Army surround them.
If they were truly surrounded...
...death was certain.
So, what he had to do now was force a breakout before the Alien Race Alliance Army could complete its encirclement!
"Break out?! How do we do that?" Fang Tangtang was a little dumbfounded. She had also realized that they were like a nail driven into the Alien Race Alliance Army’s formation.
So, how does a nail break out?
Gao Neng showed Fang Tangtang with his actions...
A nail!
Can move!
He had created the cube. It could rest on the ground, so naturally, it could also float in the air. It could even accelerate forward. This wasn’t a nail stuck in the ground; it was a nail that could fly at any moment.
SWOOSH!
The massive, hundred-meter-wide cube moved.
This scene undoubtedly startled the distant Princes. Even Mu Feifei’s expression became somewhat dazed at this moment.
"This thing... it can move?"
"It’s not just moving, it’s flying!"
"It’s really f*cking flying... And it’s so fast!"
"This is bad, they’re about to break through the encirclement!"
The Princes were shocked. But by now, it was too late to stop them. They all knew just how terrifyingly lethal this cube was.
The Fourth and Fifth-Rank warriors of the Alien Race Alliance Army didn’t dare to block it.
They were terrified of being dragged inside.
It cut a path through them as if no one was there.
Mu Feifei’s fists clenched so tightly they crackled. The plan she had just devised was shattered in an instant? This was something she had never experienced in her entire life.
"Why can this thing fly as well?!" Mu Feifei thought she had been remarkably patient, but as she watched the cube about to fly away, she finally couldn’t hold back any longer.
"Don’t you dare leave!"
Mu Feifei made her move.
"Ninth Princess, be careful!" the Princes all shouted.
Meanwhile, Shen Ning’Er stood firm in front of Gao Neng. Her golden-feathered robes radiated a dazzling brilliance as she pointed her long spear straight at Mu Feifei’s throat.
"Fight me!" Shen Ning’Er’s two words carried a supreme aura.
BOOM!
A spear and two swords clashed.
No matter how unwilling Mu Feifei was, she could only fly back in retreat.
Just then, Fang Tangtang seemed to recall something. Her gaze shifted to the distance, and she saw a figure swimming rapidly toward them.
The only one who could swim through the air...
...was, of course, Gui Zian.
The high-rank aliens who had been surrounding him had all chosen to fall back to defend. When he saw Gao Neng and the others about to break out, he had naturally rushed over at the first opportunity.
"You’ve worked hard, Teacher Gui," Gao Neng said sincerely.
"As long as I’m not dead... I’m fine. But, don’t you think you owe me an explanation, kid? Can you tell me how you made this thing?" Gui Zian said, gasping for breath.
"Strength," Gao Neng replied. He had long guessed Gui Zian would ask this.
"Strength?" Gui Zian gritted his teeth. ’What the hell? That answer is no different from not answering at all, right?’ The key thing was, he was too embarrassed to press the matter further.
After all, the man had said it was due to his strength.
What else was there to ask?
"Gao Neng, you have more than the five hidden talents you mentioned, don’t you?" Fang Tangtang, however, was fearless in her ignorance and immediately asked.
"Of course I do. But that’s my secret, so I can’t tell you," Gao Neng replied again.
"Tch, you think I, Death God Fang Tangtang, would want to know?" Fang Tangtang pouted, then blinked her eyes. "Sister Ning’Er, do you know how many hidden talents he has?"
"Tangtang, open fire!" Shen Ning’Er ignored Fang Tangtang and pointed behind them.
"Huh?"
"Now is not the time to discuss this. We haven’t escaped yet, they’re catching up, and Gao Neng can’t hold on for much longer!" Shen Ning’Er quickly replied.
"Gao Neng, how much longer can you last?" Hearing this, Gui Zian’s expression immediately turned grim. Although he didn’t know what Gao Neng’s so-called secret was...
...now was definitely not the time to be discussing it.
Escaping with their lives was the priority!
