Chapter 332 One Man is a Fortress!
"Boom!"
Another abyssal tremor shook the heavens and the earth, causing mountains to arch.
The crimson cracks in the sky are increasing.
The mechanical monsters that had been dormant in the depths of the abyss gradually revived, and beams of energy shot into the sky, emitting a dazzling and strange light.
The powerful aura of a lord-level monster emanated from all directions.
The spatial vortex at the entrance and exit has become increasingly unstable.
The crowd came to their senses; now was not the time to watch the spectacle.
"The abyss is about to collapse! This is not the time to watch the show, get out of here!"
Let's go!
"Hey everyone, retreat!"
The crowd dispersed and left through the exit.
Some people were still in a hurry until the earth shook violently, a huge gaping hole appeared at the horizon, and three lord-level mechanical monsters, as big as mountains and seemingly the embodiment of calamity, emerged from it.
At the same time, strange noises came from the sky, and countless mutated mechanical locusts swarmed towards this place.
Their expressions changed instantly, and they rushed towards the exit vortex with terror in their eyes.
"You guys go first."
Jiang Yuan also instructed Zheng Huangtong to lead the guild members and Shen Gongyu away.
Zheng Huangtong knew he had his own plans, so she didn't ask any more questions, nodded, and led everyone into the vortex.
Jingu Yu turned around and called out one last time, "We'll be waiting for you at home."
Jiang Yuan smiled and waved his hand.
soon.
There were only a few people left at the exit.
【Mechanical God Zero】stood up again, standing tall and firm outside the exit, facing the horde of mechanical monsters converging in this direction.
Like a last guardian.
A rusty, iron-colored "cloud" approached, obscuring the sky and filling the entire area with the stench of decaying iron.
Jiang Yuan turned his head and smiled, "Senior, aren't you leaving yet?"
After seeing off several of his teammates, Tang Shanhuang didn't answer, but instead asked, "Why aren't you leaving?"
Jiang Yuan smiled but did not answer, looking at the surging tide of monsters gradually gathering in front of him.
This abyss has three spatial vortexes.
The other two abyssal vortexes have been captured, leaving only the one behind him leading to the outskirts of the capital.
This is also the largest entrance and exit.
Tang Shanhuang continued, "With the abyss's mutation, the collapse of this spatial vortex is only a matter of time. If all the S-class abyssal monsters gather into a ferocious beast tide and storm into the real world from here... If the capital is prepared, it will be fine, but if it is unprepared and its defenses are breached, the consequences will be unimaginable..."
"That's right." Jiang Yuan nodded and smiled, "Did you serve in the military, senior?"
Tang Shanhuang laughed heartily and said, "I did hang around for a while. I'm not bragging, but if I hadn't been young and arrogant back then, I might be one of those dozens of Great Xia generals now..."
Just as the old man was about to launch into a long and detailed account of his past,
A crimson slash tore through space, hurtling towards this place.
"Clang!"
The defensive force field released by [Mech God Zero] was shattered after only one second.
It raised its hands and caught the massive slashing blow, its enormous body being pushed backward several hundred meters by the impact before finally stopping.
Tang Shanhuang looked up in astonishment.
All I saw was...
In the far distance, deep within a blood-red cloud, a blood-red humanoid creation appeared.
It stood there, gazing at the scene, its exact appearance indistinct, like countless red energy lines gathered together, hidden in the void, its arms like the scythes of a mantis.
I only saw the other person once.
Tang Shanhuang felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, his hair stood on end, and the chill of death enveloped his entire body.
"What is that?"
The old man's voice trembled, his face was pale, and his hands involuntarily tightened their grip on the weapon.
"It looks like a near-king-level lord-level monster, perhaps even the king of this abyss."
Jiang Yuan said, stroking the top of the knife handle with his fingers.
"A quasi-King level? I've never heard of such a being existing in this abyss... Could it be due to some anomaly...?"
"Perhaps."
Jiang Yuandao gazed into the distance, meeting the gaze of the quasi-king-level demon.
【See Through All Things】Activated.
The other party, named "The Arbiter," had bloodshot eyes, like candles burning in the night, staring intently at him.
The void where the blood cloud was located rippled like the surface of water, and then it vanished in an instant.
Jiang Yuan chuckled and muttered to himself, "So, they're treating me like a threat?"
Tang Shanhuang was taken aback: "What did you say?"
"It's nothing."
At this moment, the gathering cloud of mechanical locusts was already approaching.
【Mech God Zero】 took a step forward, his eyes lighting up.
It raised its hands, and terrifying energy gathered above them, forming a huge ball of energy.
Then... he threw it out with a thud.
Crimson Lotus Impact!
"boom!!!"
In the massive, earth-shattering explosion, the swarm of mechanical locusts that had charged forward was completely annihilated.
Tang Shanhuang was dumbfounded.
With a thought, two more mechanical constructs appeared before Jiang Yuan.
These are a three-legged mechanical fire raven, entirely golden with silver lines and silver-white wings—[Alchemy Doll: Burning Realm Divine Raven].
And then there's the three-meter-tall humanoid mechanical construct, its entire body a shimmering, jewel-like silver-green, equipped with sharp arm blades—the [Star Burialer].
The two mechanical creations, each possessing near-king-level combat power, concealed their auras. Just by standing there quietly, they exuded an indescribable aura of danger.
Tang Shanhuang exclaimed in surprise, "Two more?"
"Three mechanical creations comparable to a ninth-level grandmaster—even the aristocratic families of the capital don't have such a foundation."
"Kid, who exactly are you?"
Before Jiang Yuan could answer, he suddenly seemed to realize something and hurriedly said:
"Hey! Wait a minute, you're not planning to hold off this horde of mechanical monsters all by yourself, are you? That's too reckless!!"
Jiang Yuan laughed and said, "There's nothing I can do about it; I promised someone else."
"Senior, you're getting in the way here. You should leave as soon as possible, Lanlan."
After Jiang Yuan finished speaking.
A streak of blue light appeared in front of the old man, and the blue fish covered in golden divine patterns flicked its tail, slamming the old man, who hadn't even reacted yet, into the spatial vortex behind it.
In the old man's final moments of vision.
The figure of the boy in black grew smaller and smaller.
Faced with the vast and overwhelming tide of mechanical monsters, they were as insignificant as a speck of dust.
Yet it is incredibly tall and majestic.
His silhouette seemed to overlap with the blood-red Great Wall that had protected the Great Xia Dynasty for centuries.
It was as if wherever he stood, that place was a fortress, and no demon or alien race could ever cross it!
"Good, a truly upright man. With younger generations like you, the Great Xia will never be destroyed."
The old man's eyes welled up with tears. After saying this, his body fell into the spatial vortex.
"Don't die, kid."
It seemed as if they had heard the old man's murmurs as he passed away.
Jiang Yuan smiled softly, raised his eyes to look at the huge black shadow that had appeared before him, and murmured:
"They're the ones who will die."
Mechanical dragon turtles, each as large as a small mountain, are covered in thick mechanical armor and equipped with huge turrets on their backs. They are extremely dangerous social monsters, true weapons of war, and even top guilds do not want to provoke them.
Now, hundreds and thousands of them have gathered together, like a mountain range descending before us.
Compared to them, Jiang Yuan's figure was as small as an ant.
"roar--"
The leading mechanical dragon turtle let out a frenzied roar, its bloodshot eyes fixed on Jiang Yuan on the ground, while the massive cannon on its back glowed.
Jiang Yuan's long black hair flowed freely. He took a step forward, his right hand resting on the hilt of the sword at his waist. His eyes, beneath his bangs, were like two flames burning in the night, the left eye a fiery gold and the right eye a scarlet red.
He ignored the 'mountains' in front of him and instead gazed at the blood-red clouds in the distance, saying in a calm tone, "Anyone below the lord level has no right to appear in my sight. Don't get in my way."
"boom!!"
A terrifying pressure, solidified into a tangible form, erupted from his body, instantly expanding to a radius of ten thousand meters, intertwined with countless black lightning bolts.
The earth suddenly sank downwards.
The mechanical dragon turtles in front of them were crackling with electricity, and due to mechanical failure, they exploded one after another.
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"
The raging flames of the explosion couldn't penetrate within a ten-foot radius of Jiang Yuan, as they were blocked by an invisible energy field.
"Clang."
He drew the demon sword from his waist and slowly walked forward.
"King versus king."
"You guys handle the rest."
Behind him.
"I obey."
"receive."
[The Star Burier] and [The World-Burning Crow] transformed into two streaks of silver-green and gold-red light, rushing out and crisscrossing the battlefield at an extremely terrifying speed, causing explosions wherever they went.
[Mech God Zero] A massive silver body burst out of the smoke and dust, its eyes glowing, and it emitted a mechanical voice: "Order received, activate annihilation mode."
moment.
A red light spread from its chest to its entire body, and wings made of red energy appeared on its back. The huge sword was also enveloped by red lotus energy.
With a stomp of its feet, it soared into the sky, countless red pillar-shaped energy beams shooting out from behind it. Each time it hit an enemy in the air, it would split again, annihilating the mechanical monsters from all directions.
