Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies Chapter 1525: The Agent
Previously on Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies...
Uncle Yu and Baili Changqing held off Terumon Dharma and Kameda Koshō, greatly relieving the pressure on the others.
However, Bai Chunyu and the rest were still unable to completely eliminate the threat posed by Purgatory Star.
Rokudaime Chiyo kept using Raging Wildfire, launching indiscriminate attacks against everyone.
She pulled explosives from her body and combined them with her ability to create even larger-scale attacks.
Fortunately, Fatty Xu's strength had improved, allowing him to block her attacks and prevent the others from getting hurt.
But Wu Di's Star River Shower domain couldn't be maintained forever either.
Purgatory Star, constantly in her invisible form, was steadily destroying the floating cannons around them.
Now, they were stuck between a rock and a hard place.
If they chose to charge over and attack Rokudaime Chiyo, let alone getting close, the moment they left the range of Star River Shower, they'd be assassinated by Purgatory Star.
But continuing the status quo was just a slow death.Ninjas were among the most bizarre ability users they had ever encountered.
The only thing that could be considered Purgatory Star's weakness was probably her not-so-strong defense.
But her complex ninjutsu and ninja tool usage, combined with her stealth assassination skills and blazing speed, all made people's scalps tingle.
For a moment, Bai Chunyu, Wu Di, and Fatty Xu had no good ideas at all.
At the critical moment, it was Fatty Xu who had a flash of inspiration.
"We can call for help!"
Wu Di shot him a glance and said through gritted teeth, "Every single one of us who came here is already fighting. The captain and the others are facing even stronger opponents. Who has time to help us? Better to rely on ourselves!"
But Fatty Xu said, "No, there's someone here who isn't in the fight right now."
He switched the communication channel to Yang Xinxin's and sent out a distress signal.
"Miss Yang, I need a life-saving favor here!"
Soon, Yang Xinxin's cool voice rang out.
"What's the situation on your end?"
Fatty Xu quickly explained the current predicament to Yang Xinxin and asked if she had any way to break the deadlock.
Wu Di frowned and muttered quietly, "And I thought he had a great idea! Asking for strategic advice from someone who isn't even here? What's the point!"
On the battlefield, situations changed in the blink of an eye, and Wu Di felt this approach was completely pointless.
But Yang Xinxin only listened to Fatty Xu's basic explanation before immediately saying, "So, what's giving you the most trouble is her invisibility ability, right? Then, can't you just make it so she can't hide her whereabouts?"
Fatty Xu let out a bitter laugh. "Dear lady, we've tried many things, but the enemy is very cunning. Her invisibility isn't that easy to crack."
Yang Xinxin said two simple words. "Fluorescent dye."
Fatty Xu's expression immediately froze on his face, and for a long time, he couldn't utter a single word.
Yeah. Why hadn't they ever thought of that?
Sometimes, things that seem incredibly complicated have the simplest solutions.
Fatty Xu roared, "Does anyone have fluorescent dye on them? Give it all to me!"
For the convenience of night operations, they all carried glow sticks on them, as well as fluorescent dye for marking purposes.
When the others heard Fatty Xu say that, they immediately understood what he was planning.
Everyone felt like slapping themselves for not thinking of it earlier. They promptly handed over all their glow sticks and fluorescent dye to Fatty Xu.
Fatty Xu cracked open the glow sticks and gathered all the fluorescent dye together.
Then, using his [Blizzard] ability, he whipped up an icy snowstorm and scattered the glowing agents within it.
In the dead of night, a blue fluorescent tornado instantly formed on the mountainside of Undying Mountain.
It was actually quite pretty to look at.
When Purgatory Star saw this, she immediately understood Fatty Xu's plan, and she gnashed her teeth in fury.
As a ninja, invisibility was her greatest advantage. Once it was nullified, assassinating anyone became impossible.
She had to quickly retreat to keep the fluorescent dye from getting on her.
But the agents danced in the wind, scattering in all directions like willow catkins flying everywhere. There was no way to completely avoid contact.
Unless Purgatory Star completely withdrew from the area, she would have to face the problem of exposing her position.
For a moment, she found herself caught in a dilemma.
...
In front of Undying Mountain.
Huahua charged ahead alone, firmly blocking the path up the mountain.
The Night Parade of One Hundred Demons didn't target specific individuals; it attacked all living creatures indiscriminately.
Now, at the foot of Undying Mountain, nearly all the wandering phantoms in Edo City had gathered here.
The Three Great Ghost Kings—Nukekubi, Great Tengu, and Canine God—led the charge, clashing with Huahua in brutal combat.
Huahua's roar shook the heavens. High-energy particle beams cut through the demons like crimson scalpels, mercilessly slicing through them. In an instant, a massive number of demons were annihilated.
With Huahua guarding the rear, Zhang Yi could focus entirely on his battle with the Ultimate Evil Boy.
But after truly facing off against the Ultimate Evil Boy, Zhang Yi realized he had underestimated the Transcendents of this nation called Neon.
For the first time, someone had taken a direct hit from one of his Holy Silver Bullets to the body and come out completely unharmed.
The Ultimate Evil Boy spat out the bullet, clapped his hands in a provocative gesture, and made a "come again" motion at Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi slowly narrowed his eyes.
"Incredible defense. Interesting. But I wonder if he can withstand a fully powered Divine Domain Purification."
Just then, at the edge of the battlefield, three figures draped in black hooded robes appeared on a cliff, silently watching the fight.
The three figures were ethereal, soundless and stealthy. Even Zhang Yi didn't notice their presence.
They didn't look like three people, but more like three phantom projections.
One shadowy figure said, "This guy who came from the East seems pretty strong!"
A second shadowy figure said, "Is he from the Dragon Kingdom?"
The third shadowy figure pondered for a moment. "Possibly."
He looked down at the Ultimate Evil Boy. "Probably similar to what we cultivated. Someone trained by the Dragon Kingdom. Otherwise, he wouldn't possess such immense power!"
"An Agent?"
The first shadowy figure murmured. "Angel... candidate."
Zhang Yi stared at the Ultimate Evil Boy in front of him. The guy was arrogantly provoking him, signaling for another attack.
Zhang Yi switched to White Owl and aimed the pistol sideways at the Ultimate Evil Boy.
The expression on the Ultimate Evil Boy's face instantly grew even more excited.
"Hahaha! Come on, let's see if your attacks can smash my head open!"
Zhang Yi pulled the trigger. A Holy Silver Bullet, imbued with powerful void energy, tore through the void and shot straight at the Ultimate Evil Boy's chest!
In an instant, the bullet reached his chest and slammed into his skin-and-bones body with brutal force!
"CRACK!"
Zhang Yi heard the sound of bone shattering. The Ultimate Evil Boy's body flew backward like a torn sack, slammed violently away!
