Chapter 280: Chapter 198: The Dragon King Strikes, Astonishing as a Stone Shattering the Sky!_2

In the face of life and death, saving face doesn’t matter anymore.

Tian Yun silently nodded, then he closed his eyes, as invisible ripples emanated from his forehead’s unicorn horn.

From the lining of his armor, a full 100 dagger-like weapons floated out, controlled by spiritual power, swirling above his head. freewebnøvel.com

At the same time, the Rule Power within his body infused into these 100 daggers, instantly emitting a sharp aura from them.

The mere aura itself caused cracks to appear on the ground around them.

On the other hand, Ling’s body emitted black flames, continuously funneling into the long spear in his hands, the terrifying heat warping the very space around them.

Even Seventh Order Creatures had to take Thermostatic Shells seriously.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The cruise missiles in the sky had already altered their flight posture, diving straight down from tens of kilometers high in the atmosphere, accelerating continuously throughout the process.

"This speed, it could even rival some Seventh Order Strongman skilled in the rules of speed," Tian Yun couldn’t help but say.

"Yes!" Ling also nodded and said, "Luckily, its pattern of change is limited, making it relatively easy to block off its path."

As he spoke, his focused gaze was locked onto the 60 cruise missiles in the high skies, waiting to act as soon as the enemies entered the restricted zone.

The restricted zone’s boundaries were not just in area, but also in altitude. The zone’s altitude is now around 3000 meters.

If they acted too soon and their unleashed moves dissipated after flying out of the restricted area, that would be rather awkward.

Of course, with the speed of the cruise missiles, almost a second after their conversation ended, the missiles were about to enter the restricted area.

Ling, who was already prepared, didn’t hesitate to thrust his long spear.

The dark long spear at that moment transformed into 60 solid-looking spear lights, flying out like small artillery shells, directly meeting the cruise missiles in the air.

During this process, although the cruise missiles continuously changed trajectory, the spear lights unleashed by Ling, under his control, changed trajectory in sync.

Boom boom boom boom boom!

The next instant, the two forces collided, a series of deafening booms resonating in the high skies.

A total of 60 Thermostatic Shells detonated in unison, their combined terrifying might akin to the addition of another sun in the sky.

But on the human side, all the officers watching this scene had faces ashen with dread.

Although they had been somewhat prepared, seeing all 60 Thermostatic Shells intercepted without exception brought an incomparable sense of loss.

This not only implied that winning this battle would come at a tremendous cost, but it also suggested that their trump cards might become useless in the future.

After all, whether the missiles carried Thermostatic Shells or nuclear warheads, if the enemy could intercept them in advance, then the power of their weapons, no matter how great, would be futile.

Inside the restricted zone, however, the atmosphere was the complete opposite, with both Tian Yun and Ling exchanging glances and smiles of relief on their faces.

The Skeleton Creatures and the beasts, feeling the life-threatening danger had passed, roared excitedly, their morale surged, and they rushed forward even faster.

A leading Sixth Order Ferocious Beast, now less than 100 meters from the edge of the restricted zone and only a few steps away due to its size, excitedly brandished the corpse of a companion, charging out of the zone despite the heavy artillery fire.

However, before it could even roar in excitement, the suppression of Heaven and Earth’s rule power descended upon it.

The once Sixth Order Peak beast was weakened to Fifth Order Peak in less than a second.

This comprehensive weakening affected not only its Realm but also its bodily functions and other aspects similarly.

The sudden onset of weakness caused the Sixth Order giant beast to stagger, almost losing its balance. Although it quickly recovered, many parts of its body were exposed beyond the "shield."

On the nearby defense line, an Elite Soldier holding a Destroyer Hand Cannon, who had already locked onto it, didn’t hesitate to pull the trigger upon seeing this.

Boom boom boom boom boom!

Five Tungsten Steel Armor-piercing shells, carrying terrifying kinetic energy, covered the 500-meter distance in an instant, striking the Ferocious Beast.

Before, the Destroyer Hand Cannon could only inflict face-basin-sized wounds, at most 20 centimeters deep, on these Sixth Order beasts.

But now, after they were weakened to the Fifth Order, the Destroyer Hand Cannon paired with the tungsten steel armor-piercing shells would blast wounds the size of water buckets on their bodies.

The ferocious beast that was struck by five bullets suffered severe injuries in an instant.

At that moment, an even louder booming sound erupted.

The main battle tank had fired.

The firing accuracy of the main battle tank, naturally, couldn’t compare to the Destroyer Hand Cannon, so it didn’t aim at the exposed parts of its target but shot directly at the opponent’s "shield."

The Rule Power suppression of Heaven and Earth was all-encompassing; even the corpse of a Sixth Order, after being brought out of the restricted area, would also be suppressed to the state of the Fifth Order.

When the 125mm depleted uranium armor-piercing bullet fired by the main battle tank hit a Fifth Order corpse, its powerful kinetic energy and penetrating force directly pierced its body and entered the body of the ferocious beast behind it.

The ferocious beast lowered its head and stared dumbly at the huge wound on its chest, seemingly unable to comprehend why the shells were now so terrifyingly powerful.

Already seriously wounded, and now with its chest pierced once again, it could feel its Life Energy rapidly draining away.

Yet what frightened it even more was the terrifying heat released by the bullet that had entered its body.

It wanted to reach out and dig out the bullet, but its hand only managed to lift halfway before it weakly drooped down again.

The once troublesome Sixth Order Ferocious Beasts, after leaving the restricted area, were easily taken down by concentrated fire.

But this scene did not make anyone happy.

Because this was only one of many ferocious beasts, and hundreds of them along with Skeleton Creatures were surging out of the restricted area behind this beast.

And behind them was an endless army still coming.

The restricted area was only a mere 500 meters from the first line of defense, and they weren’t even sure if they could eliminate a fifth of the number before the opponents crashed into the line.

The soldiers who were blessed with a frenzy of combat by a honey badger might not have reacted yet, but those officers who still maintained their rationality had already felt despair rising in their hearts.

But at that moment, they noticed that the Mutated King Cobra had arrived at the front lines, seemingly out of nowhere.

At this time, it too emitted a powerful aura, and the dense fog circling around it rolled violently.

The soldiers and officers of Yang City were quite familiar with this scene—when the Dragon King had deployed Divine Skills to instantly obliterate the Locust Army of hundreds of millions, it seemed to have built up power in a similar fashion.

Under the expectant gazes of the soldiers and officers, the roiling dense fog around the Mutated King Cobra extended outward and then gradually condensed, taking the form of a Scaled Dragon.

Yes, a Scaled Dragon!

Because the fog-transmuted serpent, with its prominent horns on the forehead, had already completely moved beyond the category of a snake.

In addition, each of these dense fog giants spanned over 300 meters in length. Without mentioning anything else, just the visual impact alone was enormously staggering.

But the question was, did these giants made of dense fog really possess any offensive power?

The next instant, they saw one of the giants move.

It raised its tail high, like a giant whip, and lashed straight at the ferocious beast leading the charge.

Boom!

A thunderous boom echoed through the area as loud as an explosion.

The attacked ferocious beast, with a body over 50 meters in size, was an absolute behemoth.

Yet, such immense size offered no resistance; it was whipped away like a cannon shell, flying backward.

By now, its chest had completely caved in. The skin, muscles, and bones were utterly torn apart, and even its internal organs were squeezed and deformed.

During its backward flight, its body collided with the Skeleton Creatures behind it.

The Skeleton Creature didn’t even have time to react before it was struck by the ferocious beast’s terrifying impact, causing its bones to shatter, leaving it severely injured in the blink of an eye.

Thud thud thud!

A series of dull collision sounds resonated until the whipped-away ferocious beast stopped after toppling five or six of its fellows.

By then, it was a bloody mess, dead beyond any doubt.
