Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies Chapter 1653: Youying Destroys the Hall

Behind the ramparts of the city wall, through transparent bulletproof glass, fully armed soldiers wielded weapons designed specifically for use against Transcendents, desperately guarding the firing ports.

Nowadays, ammunition like Origin Bullets had already become widespread. Even ordinary soldiers could pose a threat to Transcendents.

This was especially true for the Huaxu Nation's number one force, the Dragon's Roar Guard, which was equipped with these rounds in massive quantities.

Yet when they faced this unprecedented enemy, a flicker of fear still crossed their eyes.

The Shengjing district had been comfortable for far too long. Even since the apocalypse began, it had never experienced such a perilous moment.

For many new recruits, the fear of death was real for the first time in their lives.

"Snap to attention, all of you!"

A bearded officer roared loudly over the communication channel.

"Don't forget, behind this wall are your families! We cannot retreat a single step. Even if we die, we die on the front lines defending our home and country!"

"Men of Huaxia would rather die than be cowards!!"

This rousing speech immediately snapped those soldiers who had been gripped by fear back to their senses.

There was nothing wrong with fearing death, but now they were protecting the lives of millions, protecting Shengjing!

Behind them were their parents, wives, and children. They could die in battle, but they absolutely could not retreat.

"Kill!!"

One soldier let out a furious roar. When fear reaches a certain point, it transforms into anger, making them forget both fear and the boundary between life and death.

"Kill!!!"

The battle cries shook the heavens.

Rumble rumble rumble!!!!

Along the long ramparts of the city wall, guns and cannons of all calibers began firing like thunder, yellow light illuminating the sky.

Powerful artillery fire struck those black giants, tearing open wounds across their bodies, yet they seemed utterly impervious to pain, showing no reaction whatsoever as they continued their advance.

At that moment, the black giants suddenly began to open their mouths. Within their jaws, enormous crimson energy spheres started to condense at incredible speed.

Hundreds of black giants performed this action in perfect unison.

When the soldiers on the city wall witnessed this scene, they immediately understood what was about to happen.

"Oh no, raise the barriers!"

The city wall itself possessed extremely powerful defensive capabilities, and among the troops, the defensive-type Transcendents immediately stepped forward to activate protective shields.

Supernatural powers flickered in a riot of five colors, forming a barrier before all the soldiers.

Boom!!!

The black giants spewed crimson energy cannons from their mouths. The release of supernatural power was the most common form of attack, simple and brutal!

Hundreds of black giants fired in unison, like hundreds of heavy hammers slamming viciously against the city wall!

Massive numbers of protective shields were directly pulverized. The surging force crashed into the city wall, blasting apart even its thick, fifteen-meter-wide structure! Countless soldiers behind it had no time to react before being blown into fine dust.

War was unimaginably cruel. Attacks like this made it difficult for soldiers on the front lines to even leave behind intact corpses.

But no one had time to grieve at a moment like this. Everyone was fighting for their lives, and they needed to keep fighting!

The giants continued their advance, howling city defense cannons striving to spew fire, their sufficiently powerful barrage tearing some giants' bodies directly apart. They collapsed to the ground, slowly transforming into black shadows that merged back into the enormous black tide behind them.

But more giants still approached the city wall, then began using their massive bodies to assault the heavy human fortress!

Within the black tide, the fat man and the thin man stood atop shadows, suspended in midair.

The thin man gazed at the harrowing battlefield before him, watching countless human soldiers being slaughtered by his shadow giants, watching rivers of blood flow, watching severed limbs fly through the air. A ferocious, gleeful smile spread across his face.

"Ah, the feeling of crushing these ants is truly delightful! Hahahaha!"

He spread his arms wide, laughing wildly, without restraint.

"I remember these humans also love slaughtering lesser creatures for pleasure. Cooking cattle and sheep with cruel methods, burning ants with a magnifying glass."

"Sure enough, in this world created by the gods, every living being is cruel!"

The fat man frowned with displeasure. He said coldly, "Your efficiency is too low, Youying. We're not here to play war games. Don't forget your mission!"

"If we delay any longer, their reinforcements might arrive. So, let me handle this!"

After speaking, the fat man stepped onto a black shadow and suddenly launched himself into the air.

He raised both hands high, and between his palms, a terrifying supernatural power began to converge, forming an unstable silver-white energy mass.

Converging, expanding, growing gigantic!

Soon, he was holding aloft an enormous energy sphere over a hundred meters in diameter and leapt into the sky above the city wall.

"Destruction!"

The fat man directly pushed the massive energy sphere toward the city wall. His method of attack was extremely simple, not even requiring a name.

All forms of supernatural attacks, with their flashy names, served only to pour out energy and obliterate the opponent's existence.

So for this fat man before them, the scout [Destruction Hall], his method of attack had only one simple name, destruction.

The silver sphere was like an enormous moon, crashing down upon the city wall of Shengjing City. The barrier praised as the Huaxu Nation's strongest defense was consumed entirely by the vast energy in but an instant!

Crumbling to pieces!

The fighting spirit of passionate young men could not erase the gap in power between them and the two Mist Valley scouts.

This was the gap between an Epsilon-class Transcendent and ordinary humans.

They were no longer existences on the same level of life.

Even Epsilon-class Transcendents and other humans merely resembled each other in appearance. But in reality, to an existence like Zhang Yi, purely from a combat power perspective, there wasn't actually much difference between ordinary people and ants.

The combined efforts of two top-tier Transcendents took less than a minute to utterly crush Shengjing City's southern defensive line!

When this news reached Meng Yuanjun's ears, his face turned as pale as the snow outside the window.

With a "thud!", he collapsed helplessly into his chair, then tilted his head back, a bitter, helpless smile on his face.

"This is the era of Transcendents! Even the power of the military cannot hold them back."

The officers beside him didn't look much better, their faces practically written with despair.

Because judging by the current situation, these two Epsilon-class existences were clearly Black Chariot-tier powerhouses.

If their goal was slaughter, then they could easily kill almost the entire population of Shengjing City!

After all, Houtu's abilities were not oriented toward protection. She could not stop these two powerful Transcendents from killing.

Even when she herself was exposed before the enemy, there was a risk she would fall.
