1789 Desperate

As soon as the words “destroy Dragon City’s civilization” came out of his mouth, the air in the underground cave instantly froze to the limit and exploded violently.

Lu Zhongqi had been like a calm and unfathomable ocean just a moment ago, but now, he was surrounded by waves that were thousands of feet high.

Along with his vitality magnetic field, they turned into visible ripples and spread out in all directions.

He seemed to give the cold and deep dark rocks around him evil and powerful vitality.

Crack, crack, crack, boom! A large number of rocks exploded.

The edges of the flying shards were incredibly sharp. They were like whistling bullets as they shot toward Meng Chao’s vital parts.

Sharp stone spikes jutted out of the cracks in the rocks. They crisscrossed each other like the bloody fangs of a giant war beast and firmly restricted Meng Chao’s movements.

Under Meng Chao, rows of spikes also protruded out of the stone bench that Lu Zhongqi had built using his rock manipulation ability.

If Meng Chao had not reflexively jumped up, the rock spikes would have turned him into a bloody beehive of flesh…

No, not only that.

As the top mine explorer in Dragon City, Lu Zhongqi’s ability to control rocks was several times stronger than Lu Siya’s.

His will was burning like a raging flame. It turned into an invisible whip and waved in all directions, melting the cold and hard rock into orange magma.

The magma was then wrapped in his will, turning into a dragon with claws and teeth before bypassing the staggered rock spikes and lunging fiercely at Meng Chao.

Yun Feidian, who was at the side, did not expect the seemingly dejected and resigned Lu Zhongqi to suddenly go on such a cruel offensive.

However, the ambitious leader of the Blood Alliance only hesitated for half a second. He soon gathered all of his power and charged at Meng Chao together with Lu Zhongqi.

Although Yun Feidian was not a warrior known for his martial arts, he was still a warrior.

After all, he was a Deity Realm expert with deep foundations.

The burning desire to live drove him to blast out the spirit energy inside his body that was as good as a nuclear reactor. They immediately surrounded him in the form of 36,000 electric arcs and turned him into translucent, human-shaped lightning.

The flying stones that Lu Zhongqi shot out were shattered by Yun Feidian’s electric arcs. The dust that scattered all over the place enveloped the human-shaped bolt of lightning, further increasing the power of his last-ditch attack.

Deafening sounds of wind and thunder filled every inch of the massive underground cave. Even the earth trembled violently, and it seemed as if the rock layers were about to collapse and devour everything.

Meng Chao did not show any signs of surprise or annoyance as he faced the two Deity Realm experts who were working together.

In truth, before he had gone underground to track down the two leaders of the Blood Alliance, Meng Chao had already prepared himself for the possibility that they would do something desperate.

He was also confident that he could take on the two Deity Realm experts at once!

His confidence was not arrogance. It came from his deep understanding of them.

First of all, both Yun Feidian and Lu Zhongqi were important figures with high positions. While they had an astronomical number of cultivation resources, they were also tightly bound by endless business affairs, the maintenance of political, as well as business networks, and complicated family problems.

Regardless of status or wealth, at least one thing was equal between all humans…

And that was time.

Meng Chao estimated that whether it was Yun Feidian or Lu Zhongqi, both had to deal with a lot of things every day, including ‘normal’ family matters.

They also had to deal with the affairs of the Blood Alliance sneakily without telling the people around them.

Under such circumstances, it would already be good enough if they could spare one to two hours a day to cultivate.

As for Meng Chao, while he had a large number of shares in Superstar Company, he did not have to participate in the company’s daily operations.

Every day, he would be able to spend at least ten to twelve hours cultivating madly.

In the past few years, he had been crawling and rolling in mountains of corpses and seas of blood more times than he could count. He had danced on the edge of the blade and clearly seen the deepest parts of hell numerous times.

At the end of the day, Lu Zhongqi and Yun Feidian were entrepreneurs, while Meng Chao was a full-time warrior.

Even if they were all at the same cultivation level, the former two were destined to be no match for the latter.

Moreover, Meng Chao also had the totem armor, which had been greatly strengthened by the mother of origin. It was a secret weapon that could change in a myriad of ways.

Besides, Meng Chao was not fighting alone.

While he was stalling Lu Zhongqi and Yun Feidian deep underground, the Red Dragon Army, the Azure Alliance, and even the nine mega corporations were evacuating people within a radius of several miles on the surface. They were reinforcing the key facilities above and below the ground, as well as blocking the underground passage with quick-drying concrete, to ensure that the collateral damage from the enemy’s last-ditch resistance was reduced to the minimum.

Meng Chao did not need to grab Lu Zhongqi and Yun Feidian.

As long as he could hold them back for a while and prevent them from escaping deeper underground, it would be enough.

Therefore, he was not afraid of fighting them head-on.

Even if both sides were to suffer great losses, he would soon be able to get the support of the entire Dragon City.

Lu Zhongqi and Yun Feidian, on the other hand, were all by themselves. The spirit energy that they had consumed could not be replenished, and the heavy wounds that they had suffered could not be treated. They were destined to die!

Half a second before the rock spike pierced his temple, a large amount of mercury-like material rushed up to Meng Chao’s head with a whoosh. It solidified into a seamless helmet.

When the rock thorns hit the helmet, the liquid material had yet to completely solidify, and two small ripples were created.

However, the two radial ripples soon solidified into the patterns on the helmet.

Meng Chao’s head, which was covered by the totem helmet, only trembled slightly, and Lu Zhongqi’s fierce attack was easily neutralized.

Bang!

At the same time, Yun Feidian, who had turned into a human-shaped lightning bolt, crashed into Meng Chao’s chest armor.

Meng Chao was like a cannonball fired by an electromagnetic cannon. He left a trail of sparkling lightning behind him as Yun Feidian sent him flying into the rock layer. A pit that was three to four meters deep was formed as a result.

Lu Zhongqi immediately activated his ability.

The countless broken rocks in the surroundings surged over as if they had a life of their own. They tried to destroy the pit and bury Meng Chao alive.

Boom! Boom boom boom!

Even though Meng Chao could not change the nature of rocks, the extremely high vibrations from his fists and feet were enough to turn the rocks, which were as hard as iron, into dust.

The speed at which Meng Chao crushed the rocks was much faster than the speed at which Lu Zhongqi formed them. Even though the latter burned his life force madly and activated his powers, he still could not stop Meng Chao from breaking out of the ever-closing rock layer one step at a time.
