Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies Chapter 1398: Kanasu's Grief
Modern medicine had saved his life; if not for his high-tech combat suit, that single strike would have been enough to rob him of most of his his combat capability.
One had to understand, this was a weapon several times larger than Gao Changkong himself, and if even the slightest mistake occurred, it would have completely bisected him!
Just moments ago, he had danced along the edge of death.
Gao Changkong lifted his gaze, his eyes filled with nothing but icy coldness. Blood seeped from his mouth due to internal organ damage.
Facing the massive centaur charging toward him, Gao Changkong gritted his teeth and once again plunged into the slums.
By the time Kanasu put away his lance-sword, Gao Changkong's assault on the slums had grown even more savage!
He showed no regard for man, woman, old, or young; he planted Puppet Marks on anyone he saw.
Earlier, because he was worried about completely enraging Kanasu, he had held back somewhat.
But now, he decided to properly punish the disobedient Kanasu.
The Puppet Mark had two functions: making the puppet explode, and controlling the puppet.After planting the Puppet Marks, he directly made all the puppets run in all directions, not concentrating them in one place, just to deny Kanasu any chance to save them.
Then, he made them charge into the crowds and directly self-destruct!
By the time Kanasu rushed over, faced with dozens of Puppet Mark carriers running in every direction, he simply couldn't save every single one.
Soon, explosions rang out from all around.
The faces of those puppets were filled with cold indifference; amidst the horrified gazes of their own kin, they sneered and exploded.
A massive number of Tri-Eyed Clan members died in this new wave of attacks.
Gao Changkong wasn't worried about running out of bait.
After he finished killing these people, he would just go somewhere else.
The entire Nasha Kingdom had a population of several hundred thousand, more than enough for his purposes.
Let alone several hundred thousand people, even if they were several hundred thousand pigs, he couldn't finish killing them all in three days!
Kanasu's roars echoed from time to time. He loathed Gao Changkong's despicable methods, but was also frustrated by his own inability to quickly kill him.
Waging war on one's own home turf inevitably led to such tragic consequences; it was unavoidable.
If only a small portion of the population died, Kanasu might have been able to accept it.
But Gao Changkong was deliberately making a show of wanting to slaughter the entire population of the Nasha Kingdom—that, he could not tolerate!
Just then, from a distant direction, he sensed a familiar aura vanish.
It was the aura of Samba Miu, one of the Kingdom's Five Grand Generals.
Kanasu's heart immediately tightened.
Samba Miu's combat power was not inferior to his own. Even he, if dragged into that damn [Demon Casino] domain, would only be at the other's mercy.
And yet, such a terrifying existence had actually been killed?
Thinking that there were still several other equally powerful beings within Nasha, this put immense pressure on Kanasu.
Were these hairless rats, who had appeared from nowhere, really going to overthrow the Tri-Eyed Clan's rule through sheer force?
Kanasu's heart was violently shaken. His mind was in chaos, and his movements inevitably slowed down.
The next moment, dozens of Tri-Eyed Clan members came running toward him.
Each one of them had a Puppet Mark planted on their body.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
No matter how fast Kanasu was, he couldn't outpace their self-destruction. Even though he desperately wanted to save his people, those who had been implanted with Puppet Marks were hardly different from the dead.
These explosions added a few more wounds to his body.
He actually staggered backward.
And at that moment, Gao Changkong's secretly arranged new wave of self-destructing puppets came charging in again.
Kanasu's eyes finally turned red.
He knew he could no longer withstand this endless wave of attacks.
So, what was he to do?
His body had already made a choice instinctively.
He suddenly swung his massive, sharp lance-sword, sweeping it across the air.
Dozens of Tri-Eyed Clan members were directly cut in half, sending a rain of blood flying everywhere!
The Grand General of Nasha Kingdom was forced to personally slaughter his own people.
Kanasu's heart was bleeding; the guilt of killing his own kind made his entire body tremble.
And the Tri-Eyed Clan members who witnessed this scene let out utterly desperate wails.
They stared at Kanasu in terror, each one frantically fleeing, as if they were looking at a demon.
That look in their eyes nearly broke Kanasu.
But he had no choice!
He couldn't save everyone. If he continued like this, he would end up sacrificing his own life as well.
Gao Changkong curled his lips into a smirk.
"Don't rush, Grand General, we can take this nice and slow!"
"The gifts I've prepared for you here are far from over!"
He constantly weaved through the crowd, planting Puppet Marks one after another.
This time, he didn't set them to explode on a one-minute timer.
Instead, he commanded them to surround Kanasu, forcing him to kill them himself.
More and more Mark-bearers turned around with numb eyes, walking toward Kanasu in the center of the ruins. They stared at him like vengeful spirits, slowly approaching, slowly encircling him in the middle.
Kanasu, a Black Chariot-level powerhouse, normally feared no one.
But at this moment, his horse hooves were in disarray; he didn't even know which direction to flee.
"No, don't come near me! Don't come near me!"
"Don't force me to kill you!"
All around him, in every direction, there were Tri-Eyed Clan members.
Kanasu no longer dared to absorb the Puppet Marks from their bodies, but he also couldn't bring himself to kill them.
And so, he was completely defeated in Gao Changkong's hands, forced to watch helplessly as Gao Changkong committed his atrocities.
Gao Changkong felt no pity for these Tri-Eyed Clan members. He would continue killing, forcing Kanasu to face his challenge head-on.
The lance-sword in Kanasu's hand slowed.
If he swung his blade, he could easily slaughter these people.
But he simply couldn't bring himself to do it!
Hidden among the crowd, Gao Changkong coldly watched the tall and imposing Grand General, slowly extending his right hand.
"Boom!"
One by one, the Tri-Eyed Clan members implanted with Puppet Marks exploded around Kanasu.
[Gates of Heaven] could distort surrounding attacks, but if Kanasu chose to use it, he would certainly kill a large number of his own people in the process.
Thus, he couldn't even use his ability to defend himself.
His injuries grew even more severe.
In Kanasu's heart, a urge to flee from this place arose.
He gritted his teeth, let out a furious roar, and shot up into the sky, flying toward the upper levels.
In his confrontation with Gao Changkong, he admitted defeat—defeated by Gao Changkong's schemes.
"My duty is to protect the Holy Spirit Hall and prevent anyone from approaching during such a critical moment. As long as he still intends to do so, he will definitely come!"
Kanasu thought to himself.
He believed that killing Tri-Eyed Clan members wasn't Gao Changkong's main objective. So, if he left, these people would be safe.
But Gao Changkong also knew that in a direct, no-holds-barred fight, Kanasu still had a high chance of killing him.
So why would he ever follow Kanasu's line of thinking?
