Chapter 656: Chapter 523: Critical Moment

Boom!

A dazzling beam was abruptly launched, and within the blink of an eye, two Apocalypse Bombs exploded mid-air!

Four more to go!

The Lumberjack Crab’s missiles were not ready yet!

Just at that moment, Xiaoyou appeared. Her massive body, accompanied by a formidable Fighting Aura, charged towards the Apocalypse Bombs. Following closely behind, a White Dragon, merely ten meters long, suddenly burst out from Xiaoyou’s back. The Fighting Aura surged between her wings, exceeding the speed of sound in a split second. It was Suolin!

Originally, Suolin just finished a sparring session with Ai Lin. The sudden alarm caused her to forgo rest. She initially thought that the defense of the White Dragon Empire was robust enough, but unexpectedly, they were unable to stop even such an attack!

Xiaoyou, with her terrifying explosive power, assisted Suolin in the initial acceleration at their base, while Suolin relied on her formidable physique for the secondary acceleration!

"Ultimate defense mode!"

Suolin’s scales took on the color of Fine Gold. This Fine Gold that wrapped around her scales enhanced Suolin’s strength unprecedentedly!

The intense vibration brought by surpassing the speed of sound made Suolin uncomfortable, yet she controlled her body and collided head-on with an Apocalypse Bomb!

Wait! What is that?!

Suolin clearly saw a glass cover on the front of the Apocalypse Bomb, and astonishingly, a person was underneath the cover! Could it be that this thing is being controlled by a person?!

"Dragon Wing Slash!"

All Fighting Aura was unleashed, a massive Dragon Wing Slash was almost entirely veered towards the direction of the Apocalypse Bomb. The Dragon Wing Slash easily sliced through the glass cover and the Dragon Knight below. The Apocalypse Bomb lost its balance as soon as it lost its Dragon Knight, it began tumbling in mid-air, and the horrific Dragon Power inside it rapidly started to release!

The Dragon Knights controlling the Apocalypse Bombs on both sides saw the one next to them about to explode and immediately flew away. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Boom!

The explosion generated a vast shockwave. Despite Suolin already having flown far away, she was still thrown off balance. After rolling in the sky for a while, she managed to land on the ground but ended up crashing into several small trees. Thankfully, she was in her ultimate defense state, and her body’s defense was exceptional. Even a few scrapes were just superficial wounds.

Three left!

Both the Lumberjack Crab and the Backplate Dragon were still in their reloading phase!

Just then, all the Light Cannon armored warriors in the Imperial City sprung into action!

"Everyone, attack immediately!"

The power of the armored warriors’ Light Cannons was not particularly high, but they had strength in numbers!

Because of the specificity of the armor, these armored warriors usually maintained and serviced their gear within the Imperial City. Especially now when the war had not yet called for their appearance.

In an instant, thousands of armored warriors launched their Light Cannons, and while their power was not enough to shatter the Apocalypse Bombs directly, they could slow down their flight speed! The reduction in speed from one cannon was not highlighted, but this concentrated attack was enough to slow down the speed of the Apocalypse Bombs unprecedentedly!

Finally, the Backplate Dragon had recharged for enough time. Although this was insufficient to bring the Light Cannon strength to its maximum, the first layer of defense around the Apocalypse Bomb had already been peeled off by the armored warriors’ Light Cannons!

This is enough!

All Backplate Dragons aimed at the Apocalypse Bomb on the left!

Boom!

The Light Cannons were all fired, causing the left bomb to explode instantly!

Meanwhile, the Lumberjack Crab also barely finished loading the Beetle Missiles! Although these were also not the most potent Beetle Missiles, it was enough!

All Beetle Missiles were fired at the right Apocalypse Bomb, and under the terrifying roar, it was blown to bits.

The constant shockwaves caused the only remaining Apocalypse Bomb to jitter incessantly, and its speed kept dropping. But the Dragon Knight controlling this bomb knew that the White Dragon Empire had no means to stop him anymore! He already arrived above the Imperial City! He was heading straight for the Imperial Palace!

Long live the Black Dragon Empire! Long live Emperor Yake!

The Black Dragon Knight roared in his heart, charging towards his target!

Die in my explosion, White Dragon Emperor!

Truthfully, it was all too late now.

However, just as the Apocalypse Bomb was about to crash into the Imperial Palace!

A massive light screen fell from the sky, and mysterious runes completely enveloped the Cataclysm Bomb at the same time, a mystical force causing all its forward momentum to vanish!

Then, Bajie’s incredibly vast body slowly ascended, protecting the Imperial Palace behind a copper wall and iron barrier.

"Even if you are a Demon Abyss Dragon, you will die here!"

The Black Dragon Knight roared, attempting to detonate the bomb.

However, he was stunned to discover two figures of unmatched beauty smiling at him by his side.

"You’re too tired, it’s time to rest now..."

The soothing whisper seemed to come from deep within their souls, the Black Dragon Knight couldn’t resist and fell into deep sleep!

At this point, Long Yi wiped the sweat from his brow on the ground, muttering: "Thank God for Suolin’s timely information, otherwise we would’ve really made fools of ourselves this time."

Bajie, having fully recovered his Dragon Clan power, had various innate magic at his disposal. In fact, Long Yi believed that if Bajie used all his power, he could completely resist the explosion with his magic. But in the nick of time, Suolin sent a message through their bond: these bombs were being directly controlled by someone. This revelation changed Long Yi’s whole plan. If there were controllers involved, capturing them would be far more meaningful than killing them; they would provide first-hand information from the Black Dragon Empire!

So, Long Yi urgently called on Little Zi for help to capture the Dragon Knight alive at the last moment.

Bajie, using magic, transported the Cataclysm Bomb outside the city. For Bajie, whose body was three hundred meters long, the bomb was incredibly small in comparison. However, its power was not to be underestimated. Long Yi was on Bajie’s back, while Little Zi and her avatars surrounded the Knight Order, absolutely not allowing them any signs of awakening. They must be kept in the deepest possible slumber, as any hint of their brain activity could lead to a fresh catastrophe.

Where Bajie had arrived was where Suolin had fallen down. It was separated from the Imperial City by a mountain, so no matter what happened, there would be no danger.

Here, Long Yi carefully studied the object before him.

Over ten meters in diameter, it housed a terrifying amount of Dragon Power. The surface was Dragon Scale, which had a certain degree of magical defence, and beneath the Dragon Scale was a layer of muscle, under which was bone armor.

Upon close examination, the sole purpose of the muscle was to generate Dragon Power for the globe, the fuel being the muscle itself. This bomb was clearly designed for short term use.

"Kamikaze Death Squad..." Long Yi softly said, looking at the Black Dragon Knight sealed into the special device.

Removing the glass lid, Long Yi carefully studied everything. He found no safety measures whatsoever, he could easily take the device containing the Black Dragon Knight out.

Without the Black Dragon Knight, the sphere lost much of its activity and gradually entered a dormant state, stabilizing.

Probably Tilian had never imagined this bomb could be directly captured, so he hadn’t thought to set up any safeguards.

"Little Zi, wake him."

Little Zi nodded, set up a psychic-isolation spell around the perimeter, and then awakened the Black Dragon Knight who was still in that device.

As the Black Dragon Knight woke up and saw Long Yi, he yelled right away.

"Long Yi! Let’s go to our deaths together!"

His voice echoed through the valley, but nothing happened.

"You might want to check your current situation first." Long Yi shrugged.

Only then did the Black Dragon Knight realize—he had a hard time turning his head to glance around—and find that his device had been extracted! The Cataclysm Bomb had completely deactivated!

Dammit! I actually failed! This is a disgrace!

The Black Dragon Knight stayed silent, and then began banging his head against the edge of the device.

"For a Dragon Knight like you, you’d hardly die from this even in one or two years." Long Yi said with a smile.

"There’s no way you’ll get any information from me! I won’t tell you anything!" The Black Dragon Knight roared.

"See, I don’t need to ask you for information I want from you." Long Yi pointed to Little Zi.

As the Black Dragon Knight looked at Little Zi, a wave of despair washed over him.

As a Black Dragon Knight of the Black Dragon Empire, he obviously knew much about the Female Demons. Even though Little Zi had taken away all thirteen perfect Female Demons, the Black Dragon Empire’s research on them had never stopped. As masters of mental manipulation, if Female Demons want to know something, they don’t have to ask. They have countless ways to extract information from your mouth, or even directly from your mind.

"You almost succeeded. Frankly, I didn’t expect this attack to come so quickly, it was totally out of my expectation. I didn’t even have time to fully prepare a countermeasure. But luckily, even without being totally prepared, I still managed to stop you." Long Yi said to the Black Dragon Knight, who had no intention of replying at all.

"So, this time I’m going to ask you about the recent troop deployments and plan of the Black Dragon Empire. About Tilian’s laboratory, and the problem of the Gate of Hell in the Black Dragon Empire. You can think about it first and then answer me slowly." Long Yi said.

"What’s the point of thinking? You have a Female Demon here, just control me directly!" The Black Dragon Knight responded in contempt. His attitude was entirely a front; Long Yi’s renown had spread throughout the entirety of the Black Dragon Empire. Every Black Dragon Knight who’d encountered Long Yi had met an unpleasant end. To say he wasn’t scared, even he himself wouldn’t believe it.

"Really, you’re an excellent Dragon Knight, but you failed to die honourably on the battlefield, and instead ended up trapped inside this cage, controlling a bomb for a suicide attack. That’s such a waste of talent. Anyone can control the flight of a bomb, even a cat or dog, but they chose a Black Dragon Knight for this task. Huh, it seems Black Dragon Knights in your Black Dragon Empire are really not worth much. Is your emperor, who has already turned into a Black Dragon, planning to win this war relying on the Black Dragon alone?" Long Yi paced around the Black Dragon Knight’s device, saying this as he walked. (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote and support. Your support is my greatest motivation.
