Chapter 188: Chapter 181: Corpse Explosion Technique Clears the Area, Discovering the Fel Magic Cannon upon Entering the City_2
Well, what else is there to say?
Just do it, and it’s done!
With no more risk of Spiritual Energy depletion, Lord Zi, who had nothing to worry about, started his first exhilarating “boom boom boom” journey.
At this moment, the demolition madman came online, as Vulture Skeleton after Vulture Skeleton dragged corpses up onto the city walls and towers.
The “BOOM BOOM” of the explosions began one after another, enveloping the city walls with a massive aura of death.
Amidst the desperate cries and screams of the monsters calling for their parents, the creatures on this section of the wall were almost completely wiped out, leaving only a few tough monsters kneeling on the ground and weeping.
Damn, does it have to be this savage?
In just a few minutes, tens of thousands of monsters were blown up, in total disarray, almost completely annihilated.
Too brutal, even more ferocious than these Abyssal creatures!
From the moment Zi Liyuan and his team took over the battlefield to the silence at the city gate, it only took a short ten minutes.
The gates of the Abyssal Castle opened without any threat, as if to say, “Come on in and have fun, big guy~.”
“Corpse Explosion Technique to clear the field? Damn freak.”
“It’s a person who’s the freak, isn’t it?”
“Shh, don’t let him hear that; I heard this guy is really petty.”
“He’s definitely a freak. How many ancestral graves must he have dug up to be able to throw out so many hero BOSS corpses?”
…
Ying Xueji’s team, and the new teams behind them, looked at Lord Zi as if they were looking at a freak.
After all, stuffing so many corpses into a Spatial Backpack, he must have a thing for corpses, right?
It’s better to stay away from such a freak to avoid getting infected.
“Clean up the battlefield, then we’ll split into two groups and quickly clear the monsters inside the castle.”
“I’ll lend you these five supports, and we split the loot in half, how about that?”
Regret!
Extreme regret!
Weren’t Abyssal monsters supposed to have a terrifyingly low drop rate?
Now, all I see before me, covering the ground, is layer upon layer of light orbs. What’s up with that?
Just under the city gate alone, there has to be no fewer than twenty silver items, so what about on top of the city walls and towers?
And then looking at the fifty-odd hellhounds they hunted, all rare BOSSes just the same, why are their drops so crappy?
A few dog hairs too? What does that even mean?
The legendary Lady Luck plays favorites, huh?
Ying Xueji may not care for these drops, but the imbalance in her heart is real!
Why go through all this effort to only get less than one-tenth of what others get?
This is pure jealousy!
“No need, we’ll clear them out slowly.”
Lending five supports just to help him recover Spiritual Energy, and you want to take half the loot? Dream on!
How could he ever agree to such a losing deal? He’d rather just pop some pills to recover. At most, his bladder won’t hold up, but he could always solve that problem with diapers, right?
“Forget it, take all that junk for yourself.”
People cursing and grumbling turned their heads and left; out of sight, out of mind!
Watching Ying Xueji and her group walk towards those newcomers, Zi Liyuan obviously understood what they were up to, so he went straight into the castle gate with Xiao Yurou, Number Two, and Wang Fatty.
There aren’t many buildings inside the city, but they all share one thing in common: enormity. Regardless of the type of building, it is much taller than the city gate.
All the buildings within sight were engraved with some kind of Demonic Runes, and dark green Demonic Energy surged along these runes.
The facades of the buildings gave off a sinister vibe, each embedded with monster skulls.
“Is that a Demonic Conduit cannon? Hurry, hurry, to that place, Zi Liyuan!”
Everyone was still observing the nearby buildings when Shen Yurou suddenly shouted excitedly, her eyes shining as she pointed at a certain part of the city wall.
After Zi Liyuan looked over, she instantly understood why Xiao Yurou was so excited.
On the edge of the city wall, there was a protruding small platform, and at this moment, a dark green mechanical device was sitting atop it.
The device’s exterior resembled the head of a monster, and within its open mouth, a ball of burning green flame was contained.
This was a Demonic Energy Cannon, a type of cannon that used demonic energy as fuel to condense and launch explosive balls of demonic fire.
This thing was a common sight on the abyssal battlefield, as one explosive ball of demonic fire, once launched and hit the target, would create a massive explosion, impacting an area with a radius of ten meters.
You should know, explosions of demonic energy are already powerful, but the most deadly aspect is that demonic energy can corrupt the majority of elemental forces.
If this thing was used on an ordinary professional, it could bestow a negative BUFF that reduced all attributes, and if one couldn’t purify the demonic energy contamination, this negative BUFF would remain active indefinitely!
This is also why, the powerhouses in the abyss are particularly difficult to deal with—who else but they control such a force as demonic energy?
“Let’s go, it’s the perfect time to collect the spoils of war on the city wall.”
The Demonic Energy Cannon was made from a type of demonic metal unique to the abyss, which, once it lost its supply of demonic energy, would turn into ordinary metal within an hour and lose the might of the Demonic Energy Cannon.
Thus, the Great Xia Empire had destroyed who knows how many abyssal rifts but had never obtained a real Demonic Energy Cannon.
With the Skeleton Army leading the way up the city wall stairs, the ground was covered with layers of light spheres, among which were many silver pieces of equipment.
“Lao Tie, clean up the ground thoroughly, pay attention to your own safety, and watch out for any hidden abyssal monsters.”
After assigning Wang Fatty a fat-reduction task, Zi Liyuan, accompanied by Shen Yurou and Number Two, reached the front of the Demonic Energy Cannon.
The aftermath of the recent explosion caused some damage to this piece of machinery, but it was just the surface metal that was scraped, not too serious.
At this moment, Shen Yurou’s eyes were shining as she began to study it intently.
“Huh, it only takes 3 minutes to parse out the schematic? Is it that simple?”
A bit astonished, but she didn’t take it to heart; this wasn’t a technology innate to the Human Race, and even if the schematics were parsed out, they might not be understood immediately.
Just as Shen Yurou thought, after 3 minutes of parsing, over a hundred schematics appeared in her mind.
But the ones she could truly understand were only about a dozen schematics.
However, these few schematics were the manufacturing plans for the Demonic Energy Cannon, and if one could study and thoroughly understand them, it would be possible to replicate a Demonic Energy Cannon with the same appearance.
Of course, such replicas would not possess the true power of the Demonic Energy Cannon, and couldn’t even launch the explosive balls of demonic fire.
Because the real method of converting and using demonic energy was contained within the rest of the eighty or so schematics.
“Demonic Runes engraving, Number Two, do you know how?”
Shen Yurou was somewhat at a loss; she didn’t know anything about Demonic Runes, and among them, only Number Two knew how to draw array runes.
“I know a few simple Demonic Runes, but the ones inscribed on this Demonic Energy Cannon, I don’t know.”
During undercover work, she naturally came into contact with some Demonic Runes, but they were mostly specific in meaning, mostly for sacrifices or summoning the Evil God.
As for the Demonic Runes inscribed on the Demonic Energy Cannon, not only were they intricate, but they also faintly shone with demonic light, indicating advanced knowledge of Demonic Runes.
“Zi Liyuan, help me disassemble this Demonic Energy Cannon; I want to find out the source of the demonic energy.”
The Demonic Energy Cannon fundamentally couldn’t store energy, so now that it was placed on the city wall, the question was how was the demonic energy being conducted here?
Shen Yurou wanted to find out the source and even the method of storing demonic energy.
The limitation that restricted her from building large mechas was the supply of energy right from the start.
The lithium batteries and Goblin’s Demonic Energy batteries they got earlier could power large mechas, but unless assembled in huge numbers, the endurance was extremely low.
“Lao Tie, give this thing a few cuts.”
When it comes to disassembling, the faster and more violent, the better.
Lao Tie silently stepped forward, with two spikes popping out from his fists, and proceeded to give the Demonic Energy Cannon a cross-cut.
The Demonic Energy Cannon, which appeared to be extremely hard and emitted a green glow, was instantly cut into several pieces and fell onto the platform.
“What’s this? A Demonic Conduit for conducting demonic energy?”
After pulling apart the remains of the Demonic Energy Cannon, a solid pipe the size of a human fist appeared at its base.
“It’s a material for conducting demonic energy. Don’t touch this thing; it might still contain a large amount of demonic energy.”
