Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies Chapter 1610: Conjuring the Thunder

Silver Armor had directly withstood the full force of Zhang Yi's shot from the City Defense Sniper. Though he was knocked back and sustained some injuries, they were far from critical.

He continued flying at top speed toward Tianshui City, the Black-White Commander in tow.

Silver Armor was certain of one thing: since his opponent was a Transcendent who excelled at ultra-long-range attacks, his close-combat abilities couldn't possibly be all that formidable.

All he had to do was set foot in Tianshui City, and he would be completely within his domain.

In a sense, his judgment wasn't wrong. Zhang Yi was indeed not a Transcendent who specialized in close combat.

But what Silver Armor didn't know was that long-range attacks were merely Zhang Yi's hobby. Defense and counterattack were his true specialty.

And this fortress city of Tianshui, he had spent years constructing it, all for the sake of this very battle.

Through satellite feed, Zhang Yi could clearly see the Azure Armor warriors converging on Tianshui City from every direction.

He only pondered for 0.1 seconds before abandoning any notion of using the City Defense Sniper to pick them off.

"Huahua, Liang Yue! You two go!"

Zhang Yi issued the battle command.

"Abandon all other zones. Hold your positions around the fortress and clean up those trash mobs."

"As for their most troublesome one, leave him to me!"

At this moment, many people were gathered within the fortress, including Baili Changqing and Wu Di, as well as all twenty-nine members of the Shadow Troop.

But Zhang Yi had no intention of letting them participate in this battle.

The reason was simple: their strength was still far too lacking at this point.

Forget sending them into combat, even a one-on-one fight would be a struggle.

As for Uncle Yu, with Lu Keran's mecha support, he possessed the strength to trade blows with these Azure Armor warriors.

However, there were simply too many of the enemy. Heading into battle would still carry enormous risk. There was no need to deploy him, and the same reasoning applied to Fatty Xu.

This was high-tier gameplay. They weren't ready for it yet.

Liang Yue had already donned her full combat suit. A set of black armor enveloped her body.

Her figure looked perfectly proportioned, like a sleek leopard. Though she might appear somewhat slender compared to a male physique, there was no doubting the explosive power contained within her frame!

In Liang Yue's left hand hung the Tang-style straight sword [Dragon's Roar], modified by Lu Keran. On her shoulder lounged a black tabby cat with its eyes shut, feigning sleep.

But Huahua's eyes were cracked open into narrow slits, clearly radiating the killing intent of a wild beast.

The woman and the cat arrived at the outer edge of the fortress. They didn't rush to strike, instead standing ready and waiting for Zhang Yi to issue further battle orders.

Zhang Yi did nothing else, simply waiting for the City Defense Sniper to finish its third charge.

Given Silver Armor's flight speed, after this shot, he probably wouldn't get another chance to fire the sniper rifle.

But that didn't matter in the slightest. The City Defense Sniper had already achieved tremendous strategic value.

Silver Armor closed in rapidly, now less than fifty li from the coastline.

Zhang Yi pulled the trigger of the City Defense Sniper for the third time. A terrifying black beam shot through Tianshui City, hurtling straight toward Silver Armor!

Once again, the speed was so extreme that dodging was nearly impossible. Silver Armor's choice remained unchanged, using his mighty thunder to meet the black light head-on and break down its power!

The sea roared, towering waves surged skyward, and bolts of lightning illuminated the entire coastline of Tianshui City. Yet all that met the eye was utter desolation.

Silver Armor was blasted back several thousand meters once more, his left fist mangled and shredded by the explosion. But this kind of injury, he paid it no mind whatsoever.

Because after this strike, he was about to set foot in Tianshui City!

Meanwhile, the Azure Armor warriors had arrived at the battlefield ahead of him!

They didn't need to worry about Zhang Yi's attacks, so they were faster.

Upon reaching Tianshui City, the first thing they did was frantically scour every trace of living beings!

The fact that Zhang Yi had sniped one of the Black-White Commanders with his opening shot filled them with burning rage. They were desperate to wash away that humiliation with blood!

But when they landed, they were stunned to discover just how deathly silent this city was!

They had expected to encounter large numbers of human soldiers resisting like other units had, and they were fully prepared for slaughter.

Yet unexpectedly, a full-scale assault they had been gearing up for felt like punching a cloud of cotton.

Tianshui City had always been sparsely populated. Even after absorbing some outside population, it only reached eighty thousand people.

On top of that, Zhang Yi had been prepared well in advance. Everyone was now hidden in shelters one to two hundred meters underground.

How could these invaders possibly have anticipated that?

But soon enough, they found something.

Because on this desolate, ice-covered land, one location stood out prominently.

That was the western mountain district, where the towering hemispherical fortress rose beside the frozen Lu River.

"Is that the human headquarters?"

"Take it down! Kill every living soul inside!"

After exchanging glances, the Azure Armor warriors reached an instant consensus and charged toward the fortress shelter.

At that same moment, Silver Armor also flew into Tianshui City. His feet landed on the hard ground, both hands dripping with blood.

But the corner of his mouth curled into a sinister arc.

He raised his head and looked into the distance, toward the position of the human ability user who had been attacking him.

At this range, his opponent no longer had any chance to strike at him again!

"Kill every human here!"

After uttering those words, Silver Armor's legs exploded with force, launching him into the air as he soared high toward the fortress!

He rose into the sky, ascending several thousand meters straight up, and kept climbing higher and higher.

"Rumble!"

Above, thick layers of clouds began to gather. He pointed one hand at the sky, white electric light flickering at his fingertips.

Zhang Yi set down the City Defense Sniper and said to Lu Keran, "Pack it away!"

Inside the control room, Lu Keran retracted the City Defense Sniper into the fortress.

Zhang Yi squinted his eyes, gazing up at that silver-armored figure in the sky, and slowly raised his right hand.

"Manifold Phenomena, Three Thousand Worlds!"

Meeting all changes with stillness, that was his way of fighting.

No matter what method you use to attack me, you first have to get through the spatial barrier that separates two worlds!

Three thousand colossal Dimensional Gates directly blanketed the sky above.

Silver Armor stood tens of thousands of meters in the air, surrounded by massive cumulonimbus clouds as thick as mountains. Silver arcs of electricity danced at his fingertips, and as if responding to his summons, the currents within the clouds slithered about like silver serpents.

Silver Armor hovered in the sky, both hands raised high above his head.

"Conjure the Thunder!"

"CRACK!!"

Thunder exploded with deafening force. From every direction, countless bolts of lightning, like thick silver serpents, converged rapidly toward Silver Armor!

It was the purest heavenly might, carrying terrifyingly immense power, an existence that all living things instinctively revered in awe!
