Just as Lin Qianxuan planned to fire another shot with the ga character, Xiong De suddenly raised his hand.
From the Moon Peaks that released towering beams of light, red teors suddenly plumted downward.
From afar, it was hard to gauge the size of these teors.
The ga character and Gongsun Ying and others, upon discovering them, had no ti to communicate with each other and only managed to flee.
"Boom~!"
"Boom~!"
"Boom~!!"
...
More than a dozen teors struck the ground, delivering a sweeping blow within a nearly hundred-ter radius, with the aftermath easily overturning the rebel army numbers.
The rebel army suffered heavy casualties; as Lin Qianxuan saw it, out of a force of over three hundred, there were now barely a hundred left.
The ga character and Gongsun Ying, along with Gongsun Yue, protected so people, joining forces to barely deflect one incoming teor, ensuring the safety of a few. However, the three squad commanders were scattered all over.
Gongsun Ying held the Mother-Child Sound Transmission Box, inquiring amidst the chaos of the situation.
[Gongsun Ying (leaning against a wall, holding the Mother-Child Sound Transmission Box): Brother Lou, Mr. Shen, Sister Liu, are you all alright?]
The voices of Lou Zheng and the others ca from the Mother-Child Sound Transmission Box.
[Lou Zheng: We’re okay for now, but we’ve lost quite a few of our brothers. Leader, be careful not to get hit.]
Such casualties greatly diminished the morale of Gongsun Ying and others.
Even though they knew from the start that it wasn’t going to be easy, almost akin to a death mission, it was still hard for them to accept dying like this.
[Lin Qianxuan (looking at Gongsun Yue): What exactly are those things?]
[Gongsun Yue (tense, guilty): These teors are also Divine Machines, called "Fallen Moon," the guardian Divine Machines of Kyoto, launched through the Moon Peaks. At the peak of Great Qian, there were eighteen Moon Peaks capable of striking within a hundred-mile radius of all of Kyoto. Their might is difficult to resist even by those in the late Divine Manifestation Realm. Now there are fifteen Moon Peaks left; in Wudu’s situation, I thought there was no one left to operate them. It’s all my fault; if I had thought of this earlier, they wouldn’t have died...]
[Lin Qianxuan: Miss Yue, the urgent thing now is not self-bla but rather how we solve the problem.]
[Gongsun Yue (restraining her sad expression, thinking calmly): The Moon Peaks need a quarter of an hour to recharge before firing again. We can destroy them all during this process.]
[Lin Qianxuan: The one controlling the Moon Peaks is that General Xiong, right? Wouldn’t killing him also solve the problem?]
Compared to destroying so many Moon Peak artillery platforms, Lin Qianxuan felt it would be simpler to solve the problem at its source.
[Gongsun Yue (shaking her head): That’s not possible. Once the Moon Peaks are activated, they’ll automatically target and destroy the intruders. Even if the controller is killed, they’ll continue attacking enemies until all are destroyed before shutting down.]
[Gongsun Ying (looking at you): Young Master Lin, General Xiong’s Iron Armor Skill is unparalleled. Even though your Divine Machine is mighty, it might not break his defense. Your limited ammunition would be better used to destroy the Moon Peaks.]
Lin Qianxuan thought about it, and indeed, the previous shot barely seed to scratch Xiong De’s Shield Armor. This iron turtle was truly hard to deal with.
[Lin Qianxuan: I have seven shells left; I should be able to destroy seven Moon Peaks. But what about the remaining eight?]
Suddenly, Lou Zheng’s voice ca from the Mother-Child Sound Transmission Box.
[Lou Zheng: Mr. Lin, leave it to us; we can handle this much.]
"Bang bang bang bang~!"
The sound of synchronized footsteps rang out as the Divine Martial Guards ford a battle array, advancing step by step toward the ga character and others.
At the forefront of these Divine Martial Guards was Xiong De, holding a weapon that resembled a teor Hamr.
Around him, the golden glow of the Shield Armor flickered, the teor Hamr in his hand spun, and he stepped forward, exuding an intense sense of oppression.
[Lin Qianxuan: Let’s go; I’ll destroy those Moon Peaks on the east side.]
Lin Qianxuan imdiately issued the command, intending for the ga character to leave and destroy the Moon Peaks.
Gongsun Ying and the others also planned to flee.
But even as they intended to leave, Xiong De wasn’t giving them the chance.
He threw the teor Hamr in his hand, and the small drop rapidly expanded in the air, growing to over ten ters wide, assailing the airborne ga character.
Gongsun Ying was the first to draw her blade to assist in defense; the ga character also manipulated the water flow to block.
In their clash, the sword qi dissipated, and the ga character’s water flow was pressed back to the front, finally taking the hit directly, flying straight into a building, which partially collapsed from the impact.
The ga character’s rough skin and thick flesh prevented him from being injured, but Xiong De leaped after him, directly pursuing the ga character.
He clearly held a grudge.
The previous shot ensured that he’d rember the ga character.
Xiong De moved with great speed, leaping nearly a hundred ters in a single bound; he, too, had mastered so body technique related to Divine Martial.
Upon nearing the ga character, he once again swung the teor Hamr at close range toward him.
Without thinking, the ga character commanded the frost and snow around him to transform into dark water flow, directly attacking the teor Hamr.
The teor Hamr paused slightly but still continued advancing.
The ga character reached out with both arms, which instantaneously transford into massive Dragon Claws, blocking the teor Hamr.
The combination of the water flow and Dragon Transformation arms barely managed to keep the teor Hamr at bay.
In terms of sheer strength, the ga character seed evenly matched with Xiong De without the ho-field advantage.
However, now was definitely not the ti to battle him; during the fight, the lights of the Moon Peaks lit up once again.
