The pressure accumulated from these days turned Chen Mu into another person. He wasn’t only composed like before, but also now had a fierce temperament. In other words, Chen Mu was a dangerous man; he was a real menace.
It was worth noting that this dangerous man was the chief commander of a formidable army and it greatly increased his deadliness. In fact, Chen Mu had all the reasons to burn down Borman City and the reason was simple; this land belonged to Cang Lan. Chen Mu did not have deep enmity with Cang Lan, yet was pushed to his edge. It was impossible not to get enraged. For an average person without ability, they could only accept the unjust treatment and suck it up. However, for someone who had the power to retaliate but chose to tolerate the unjust treatment, he must be a masochistic.
Cang Jiang Military Force was annihilated by Chen Mu. Even if the three of the Great Four Coalition Army of the Underworld managed to escape from the jungle, they would never catch up with his team. In other words, there was no worthy opponent like Cang Jiang Military Force in close proximity.
If no one stopped them, Chen Mu would choose the most direct and fastest way to cross Borman City, then find a place to take a good rest and reorganize. He could finally have a good rest too. But the unexpected arrival of the army ignited the anger he had suppressed and contained for a significant period of time.
Chen Mu was not a bad-tempered person. In contrast, in the eyes of the Bogner around him, he was a good-natured person. However, it would also be dreadful when such a man with good qualities was rubbed the wrong way.
Inexplicable animosity was brimming within Chen Mu. It didn’t make him lose his head. On the contrary, he was as clear-headed as before. In contradistinction to his opponent, Chen Mu contemplated and decided to give Cang Lan a huge surprise.
“Where… where are you all from?” demanded the young leader of the group, he was turning pale. He was Cang Lan’s nephew. Otherwise, he had no way to be at such a crucial position. However, holding a high-ranked position at his young age made him unavoidably arrogant. Hence, when he heard report of Chen Mu and his army causing an uproar above Borman City, he immediately rushed forward to intercept them.
But this young man regretted his decision. The troop he brought with him was outnumbered by Chen Mu’s Wood Word Camp. Under the attention and scrutiny of the public, it was hard for him to retreat. Losing his prestige was akin to killing him.
No matter how he looked at it, Chen Mu’s troop was simply too suspicious-looking! As Cang Lan’s nephew, he was familiar with Cang Jiang Military Force. He had an army to make a comparison with, and he soon realized the army in front of him was on par with Cang Jiang Military Force; this urged him to be alert. Cang Jiang Military Force was the first army of the Underworld and the strongest armed forces in North Facing District.
“Who are you?” Chen Mu asked coldly.
Noting that his opponent didn’t attack him, the young man regained his courage and snorted. “I am Borman City’s chief commander, Cang Feng. Who are you? According to the procedure, you have to accept my inspection. If there’s any resistance, you’ll be North Facing District’s enemy!” He had been in this position for several years, and had no problem giving an authoritative speech.
Card artisans in close proximity heard his command and started to scatter in all directions. It was fun to be an onlooker but not worth the price if that would threaten their lives. Those card artisans were smart and they knew Wood Word Camp wasn’t an easy target. They would be looking for trouble if they provoked them.
“Cang Feng?” Chen Mu’s pupils shrank. “How are you related to Cang Lan?”
“How dare you!” Cang Feng was furious. “Who gave you the audacity to call out our superior’s name! Humph! Let me tell you. I’m Cang Lan’s nephew!” In the corner of his eye, he saw a team of card artisans flying towards him thus, he reclaimed his composure. He cried out sharply, “Come down to the ground quickly and accept my inspection! If there is any resistance, shoot to kill!”
“Shoot to kill?” Chen Mu laughed and involuntarily let out a chilling air which dissipated in all directions. His tone abruptly changed. “Everyone, shoot to kill!”
Wood Word Camp was ready for battle. As soon as Chen Mu’s voice faded, Wood Word Camp started the attack. There weren’t too many thoughts going on in the other card artisans’ mind. They were pushed to their limits by Cang Lan for the past few days and were all brimming with anger. Thus, they were not holding back in their attacks.
Tailless Shuttle Card’s sharp shriek ruptured the air. It darted towards card artisans in front like a tidal wave! The targets they chose were all vital parts of the body and under such close distance. Wood Word Camp’s third team was trained to shoot with less than a centimeter shooting error for all shootings within 3,000 meters. They could hit their targets even with eyes closed! They all chose the highest shooting frequency, shooting crazily!
The card artisans on Cang Feng’s side were confused by the unexpected attack. They weren’t expecting any attacks! They really launched their attacks! they thought.
Are they losing their mind? Aren’t they afraid of Cang Lan?” Questions were popping in their heads.
Those card artisans were in great confusion till they realised their comrades had blood spurting out of their throat, eyebrow and heart. They nearly fainted from the blood and gore.
Cang Feng was in the worst position; he was the nearest target and suffered the strongest blow. Moreover, Wood Word Camp transferred all their hatred for Cang Lan onto him. He had injuries all over his body, more than 100 holes with blood oozing out. Cang Feng stared hard at his opponents and was in disbelief.
Everyone from the third team gave this guy a blow!
The card artisans from Borman City abused their power and neglected their daily training. In addition, they hadn’t combat for a long period of time. They were confused and in disarray. Someone shouted, “Run!” and immediately, everyone turned their back and tried to escape. However, when they turned around, they were shocked to discover a whole patch of dense fire right in front of them. These red flames were only thumb-sized but in great quantity and densely packed into a thick patch, blocking their escape route.
They were eager to escape and knew that their power shield could protect them. These thumb-sized flames were far less life-threatening than those lunatics behind them. They fled in all directions, and had only one intention in mind—stay away from this place!
There were about a thousand card artisans rushing over as reinforcement. Everyone was stunned by what was happening in front of them.
Cang Feng was dead! Those were their enemies!
The leader of the reinforcement team watched with a blank face and could not comprehend the situation, the fierce attack, and the gruesome killing spree. This fellow, who had always played it by ear, quickly got a grip of the situation and hollered, “Retreat! Quick! Get out!”
The strength of the opponent was too strong. The two troops weren’t of the same level! There was no way to fight this battle!
But before he could stop, a strange wave surged forward.
Clink! The crisp sound of a thousand power shields shattering at the same time. IT rang in the ears of a card artisan. It was like the sound of death! His face turned pale in an instant. D*mn it! Soundwave cards!
Those onlookers were astounded! Soundwave cards! So many soundwave cards! Those card artisans harbouring bad intentions immediately abandoned their ideas. This army of unknown origin was armed with dreadful weapons!
The benefits of soundwave cards were well known, and the costliness was also well known. They had never heard of any team with hundreds of card artisans equipped with soundwave cards! Looking at the power of these soundwave cards, they were far more powerful than the usual ones they had seen.
Leaders of other artisan team in the onlooker crowd were jealous. They knew that even if they sold everything in the team, they still wouldn’t be able to afford soundwave cards for the entire team! Though they were jealous, they dared not snatched it off them. They could see that Chen Mu and his team were not putting up their best fight. Anyone who dared to steal from them would be attacked by them too.
Indeed, all they heard was a fierce roar. “Attack!”
An Iron Titan with a group of titans were shielded with an oddly-shaped sharp cone power shield. They dropped from the sky like meteorites and cruelly smashed into the opponent’s team of card artisans.
“Hildebrandt’s Starling Crush”!
Boom! Bodies were blown to pieces. Severed limbs were flying around, and there was a deafening sound of collision and crash. The pain was felt just by listening! Card artisans in the garrison were screaming but their screams were swallowed by the endless crashing sound.
It’s a real hell!
There was a 20-meter-wide empty space between Cang Feng’s card artisans and the onlookers. All card artisans along this area were smashed into pieces, their bodies then smashed hard onto the onlookers.
The awful sound of onlookers’ vomiting was ringing. They had no idea that there was such a terrible combat in this world! None of the card artisans’ bodies who were squashed by the titans were intact. The onlookers had various organs and flesh hanging onto them.
This was a nightmare that countless people couldn’t erase in their lifetime!
Sang Hanshui’s eyes spat venom. He wasn’t a benevolent person to begin with. When he was pushed to his edge like a drowned mouse, he had his anger contained and it was completely unleashed in this battle.
Around him, hundreds of fist-sized bombs floated quietly, but anyone could feel the immense danger. He stretched out his hands, like a gigantic bird with wings!
Out of a sudden, his gaze turned hollow, the dark red explosives that floated around him switched to white. He abruptly closed his hands that he had stretched out earlier and the incandescent explosive bombs were attracted to him. It quickly gathered half a meter to the front of his hands. In a moment, a translucent bomb appeared in front of his hands. If you looked closely, you could see that the inside of the bomb had a milky white core.
“Dual Core Bomb”!
Xiaobo was focused. If he removed his mask, you would discover that his face was covered in sweat. He had 36 orderly wave wheels surrounding him. His hands were skilfully manipulating all of them.
In a moment, he had nine orderly wave wheels in front of him! This was his best attack! If he hadn’t been promoted to the seventh grade, he would not have been able to use this technique. This was also the first time that it had appeared before the world since the conception was completed.
Nine orderly wave wheels formed a complete circle. The light flowing through each orderly wave wheels attracted people’s attention. When nine orderly wave wheels converged, the “pointer” on each orderly wave wheels circled crazily. Soon, a light flashed past, all nine “pointers” pointed in the same direction. Following which, all nine orderly wave wheels vanished, and a half-meter orderly wave wheel appeared in front of Xiaobo.
“Nine orderly wave wheels annihilation.”
Two aces from Wood Word Camp completed their strongest attacks!
