Light Fortress Chapter 2019 - 61: [Dream of Reality] (Part 2)

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The fierce wind roared in!

With a bang, Li Chen crashed through the Source Energy Shield and landed heavily on the snowfield enveloped by the Initial. The latest generation of Source Armor had an automatic shock-absorption feature, yet he was still thrown around, rolling on the ground for a dozen times. In the end, an automated bulldozer scooped him up along with the accumulated snow on the snowfield.

"Sorry, all the Red Shadows have been dispatched to other areas for extermination missions. Currently, there’s only one bulldozer here."

The headlights of the bulldozer flickered briefly.

Alf vibrated the bulldozer’s arm to shake off the snow, and told this seventh team captain an unfunny cold joke: "Don’t give me that resentful look. You’re not the only one who’s been thrown around like a discus over the years."

...

...

The moment Li Chen was thrown out, Gray Dragon sprang into action!

The task target it received from Deep Sea earlier was clear - to kill that Spiritual Transcendent with the Source Eyes Great Achievement Domain!

In this ongoing Gu Castle war, the Traveler Tribe had always been trying various ways to reduce the "elite forces" of the North Continent Transcendents. Due to the blockade of the Initial’s Source Energy Shield, the "high-end combat power" of the North Continent would only appear at critical moments... And at the moment Gu Xiaoman made a throwing gesture, the hunting target within Gray Dragon’s Spirit Sea changed!

The hunt target... switched from Li Chen to Gu Xiaoman!

A massive gray shadow instantly dived into the snow, breaking out the next moment, sharp claws clamping onto Gu Xiaoman’s slender ankle.

Gu Xiaoman narrowed her eyes.

Dissolving Dream activated again, the sharp claws closing in, overlapping with her calf.

She raised her leg high and stomped down heavily!

Boom!!!

The entire snowfield met with a seismic avalanche, with Gu Xiaoman’s footing as the epicenter, the snow within a hundred meters was stomped into flying turbulence!

A furious, muffled grunt echoed from beneath the snow!

A fierce shadow, full of murderous intent, burst from the ground, Gu Xiaoman, expressionless, faced it head-on, stretching out her hands in an embracing posture. In an instant, Gray Dragon’s sharp claws penetrated her Annihilation Dream Body, missing once again, and in the moment the two brushed past each other, Gu Xiaoman turned sideways to clutch the massive creature’s tail wing, dissolving the Dream Domain. Her hands exerted force, and Gray Dragon’s eyes widened in disbelief as it looked back, but the tip of its tail wing was already tightly gripped.

Vrrrrrr!

A sound of high-speed rotation echoed across the Gu Castle Battlefield as Gu Xiaoman, holding Gray Dragon, spun rapidly over the snowfield, finally wielding it like a giant club, smashing it against a fractured mountainside!

Snow danced and scattered wildly!

Gray Dragon coughed up a large mouthful of blood, roaring and howling, its tail wing skin instantaneously cracking open, hundreds of thorns abruptly bloomed at Gu Xiaoman’s holding position!

The Traveler Tribe had wandered in the Old World for nearly a thousand years. To adapt to the harsh void environment, they had evolved extremely strong adaptability. As the top extraordinary life forms of the tribe, Gray Dragon could change its gene sequence for rapid mutation according to its survival needs. If it needed to soak underwater for an extended period, it would grow gills for aquatic breathing. If it needed to soar at the Skytop, it would unfold massive wings!

And now... to adapt to Gu Xiaoman’s "close combat" attack, it allowed its tail wing to grow untouchable iron thorns!

Rip!

A piece of fabric flew in the air.

Gu Xiaoman drifted back, re-establishing distance.

She looked at her palm, where a cut was bleeding, her expression calm. A hundred meters away, embedded in the stone wall, Gray Dragon slowly broke free from the confines, flapping its iron wings to hover in the air. At this moment, the iron thorn mutation had spread across its body, a response from the time of the Old World’s meteor impact defenses.

Gray Dragon’s skin would harden a hundredfold, and those iron thorns could pierce rocks with ease, ensuring they took no damage.

"Interesting."

Gu Xiaoman silently pulled out the Spirit Pendant worn on her chest, which was a keepsake from Shen Li, well preserved over the years.

During these years on the Gu Castle Battlefield... she hadn’t wasted time. As Gu Shen suggested, she split her Heart Flow Power, riding on the Red Shadow to enhance her spiritual realm. Besides, she revisited the trio of masters from the Sangzhou Cave.

The Gu Castle Battlefield war wasn’t just a North Continent affair; all three continents’ alliances sent their elite forces under their banners.

Shen Li and Chen Mei also arrived at the Northern Continent Border.

When Gu Xiaoman broke through the fourth stage, both made significant contributions.

Today’s battle, not only under Bai Xiu’s "insight," but also Shen Li and Chen Mei’s guidance... If she could single-handedly hunt Gray Dragon, it would prove that Gu Xiaoman alone now possessed Titled Level strength.

Regardless of today’s battle outcome.

In truth, both Shen Li and Chen Mei already knew that the little girl Gu Shen saved in Sangzhou Cave back then had now become an independent "absolute pillar."

But if she wanted to participate in the next plan of the three continental alliance, what Gu Xiaoman needed to do was far more than becoming a "Titled."

She is the future "Lord of Wine."

And today’s battle, for Gu Xiaoman, and for them... is just the beginning.

"Hoo..."

Gu Xiaoman silently released the pendant Shen Li had given her, softly speaking, "Then, let this all begin."

The silver-white flame burning from her brow received its master’s command, and instantly grew wild!
