Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies Chapter 1600: Reinforcements
Previously on Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies...
The Golden Crow crashed heavily onto the ground. The damaged areas of its wings had already dried, blood unable to flow out before being evaporated by the heat, which happened to seal its wounds and prevent it from bleeding to death.
The Golden Crow gasped for air in great heaving breaths, the despair in its heart growing ever deeper.
It had guessed that Silver Armor would be difficult to deal with, but it never imagined that Silver Armor's strength would surpass its own by such an overwhelming margin!
They were not on the same level at all. The opponent was absolutely at a level above Black Chariot-tier! Even more than 20,000 points, far higher than that!
So high that it left the Golden Crow utterly incapable of fighting back.
"Caw caw!!"
When despair reaches its absolute limit, that is when rage reaches its peak. The Golden Crow had completely lost its mind at this point, tilting its head skyward and unleashing a furious roar.
"Old Ji, launch the Love of Death for me, I can't hold on any longer!!"
The Golden Crow had truly gone mad, actually intending to take the enemy down with it in mutual destruction.
Meanwhile, at the Command Center, Ji Changhai was surrounded by many high-ranking officers, all of them staring intently at him with faces full of anxiety."Commander Ji, we need to evacuate now! The enemy attacking this time is not something we can withstand!"
Ji Changhai's face twisted with ferocity as he slammed his hand hard against the table. "Damn it all, all of you shut the hell up! Run? Where the hell can we run to? If the Northeast Major Region falls, we're all dead anyway! I'm not about to be remembered as a spineless coward!"
"If worst comes to worst, we'll fight them to the death!"
"Open the launch bay for the Love of Death. If it truly comes down to it, we'll all die together!"
With his command issued, no matter how the high-ranking officers around him begged and pleaded, Ji Changhai paid them no mind.
On the military side, the launch bay for the Love of Death had already been opened, and the commotion from this side could be sensed simultaneously by every region across the world at that very moment.
For a time, nations around the globe were all alarmed. However, most countries were aware that an attack by a mysterious civilization was taking place in this area.
The reactions of each nation varied. Some were delighted, some were shocked, and some were panicked.
But even the neighboring nations could not send reinforcements in time.
All they could do was sit back and wait to see how things played out.
Never mind them, even the nearest Shengjing district had to tighten its defensive perimeter, forming a defense circle centered on Shengjing City, out of consideration that Shengjing itself might come under attack.
Silver Armor turned his head and looked at the Golden Crow.
A massive blaze of sky-burning flame came rushing straight toward him!
Boom!!
The flames raged so violently it seemed they would incinerate Fengtian City itself. Even from thousands of meters away, the skin would feel a stinging burn.
Yet facing such an attack, Silver Armor showed no reaction whatsoever. He simply raised the massive crescent blade in his hand and brought it down in a single slash!
Whoosh—
That single slash stirred up a terrifying storm. There was no residual supernatural power at all, merely a gale caused by sheer overwhelming strength and the sheer speed of the blade's descent.
That one slash split the incoming flames clean in half!
The gap in strength was so vast it drove one to utter despair!
Even Han Shanzuo's body, tempered through a thousand trials, even his Golden Crow physique whose hardness was nearly comparable to adamantium metal, could not withstand a single casual slash from the Transcendent in silver armor before him.
The opponent was a Transcendent of the extreme Strengthening-type, capable of destroying everything through sheer physical might alone.
Meanwhile, the Black-White Commander had joined the sweep against the Fierce Tiger Guards.
Among the Five Immortals of the Northeast, the Willow Immortal and the Gray Immortal had fallen in battle!
The top Transcendents of the Northeast Major Region had absolutely no power to fight back against this veteran Epsilon-class!
"Caw caw!!"
Tears of burning heat streamed from the corners of the Golden Crow's eyes, its heart utterly consumed by despair.
Before such an overwhelming gap in strength, they had not the slightest ability to resist. It seemed likely that today, the Northeast Major Region would be completely erased from the map of the Huaxu Nation.
And after they were destroyed, could the other regions possibly survive?
If the Golden Crow wanted to flee at this moment, given the speed of the Strengthening-type Transcendent in silver armor, there was no way it could be caught. Even with only one wing, it could still condense flames into a wing and soar into the heavens.
But Han Shanzuo would rather die here than be a coward cursed at for the rest of his life.
"Die, all of you, die!"
"Ji Changhai, what the hell are you still waiting for!!"
Han Shanzuo's voice shook all of Fengtian City, and of course, it reached Ji Changhai's ears as well.
The key in his hand had already been inserted into the control box, the switch flipped open. His right index finger hovered above the launch button, trembling violently, drenched in sweat, uncertain whether he should truly press it.
Boom!
...
Boom!
...
Boom!
...
There were those who tried to escape by airplane, but shortly after their aircraft took to the skies, they were shot down by the Azure Armor warriors.
Without the protection of powerful Transcendents, attempting to flee using mere modern transportation was an extremely foolish thing to do.
"Hahaha!!"
Tears of hot emotion flowed from the Golden Crow's eyes. It unleashed the most powerful burst of flame of its entire life, its body transforming into a massive golden fireball, like a giant sun.
It illuminated all of Fengtian City from the sky, its wings condensed from fire flapping as it hurtled violently downward toward Silver Armor!
Silver Armor's expression finally showed the slightest crack.
Even though his strength far surpassed Han Shanzuo's, a desperate life-staking strike from the opponent was something even he dared not take lightly.
He stood his ground, took a deep breath, and the sound of rushing wind filled the air around him. His chest and abdomen swelled noticeably larger.
Then, facing the golden fireball coming straight at him, he violently exhaled a surging torrent of air!
A storm erupted from his mouth!
The layers of golden flames wrapped around the Golden Crow's body, struck by this storm, were peeled away like an outer garment. Soon, the Golden Crow's grievously wounded body was exposed.
By the time the Golden Crow reached him, the flames on its body had dwindled to nearly nothing.
Silver Armor said not a word. He raised his blade and charged straight in, swinging it directly at Han Shanzuo's neck!
"Thunk!"
An enormous head tumbled to the ground in an instant. The Golden Crow's neck was exposed, blood gushing out in a violent frenzy.
"Crash!!"
Its massive body slammed heavily onto the ground as well.
Silver Armor merely cast a casual glance at it, then shook his head with boredom, and calmly carried his long blade as he strode off into the distance.
It seemed he had no interest in killing ordinary people. Everything that followed could be left to his subordinates.
Or perhaps it was because he did not dare to act for too long, fearing that he might draw the attention of some powerful existence.
Inside the command room, Ji Changhai's face had already turned deathly pale. In his despair, his right hand was about to press down on the launch button of the Love of Death.
And just at that moment, the door to the command room suddenly swung open.
A young officer walked in and said to everyone present, "Everyone, do not panic. The National Protection Army has arrived to provide support!"
Hearing these words, Ji Changhai and the other high-ranking officers immediately turned their heads to look.
"Na... National Protection Army?"
