Chapter 72 Pursuit Outside the City
Chapter 72 Pursuit Outside the City
Watching Sima Zhen and Hua Xiaolan fight evenly in the monitoring room, Liu Huasheng couldn't help but sigh, "People can only enjoy happiness when they find opponents of the same level!"
His expression then darkened, and he muttered, "But... do you think I, Huaxia Longcheng, can just come and go as I please?"
There were no system rewards for this city defense; the kobolds didn't drop a single piece of equipment. Liu Huasheng's only gains were 0.001 kWh of electricity generated by the basic power tower, a few kills from the rocket matrix, and a single alchemy material caught in the Eight Trigrams Furnace.
This small gain was not enough to satisfy Liu Huasheng.
"Those who offend China, no matter how far away, will be punished; even aliens are no exception! If we do not retaliate, how can our thoughts be clear, and how can our Dao heart be steadfast?"
With this in mind, Liu Huasheng put on his bulletproof armor, got on his donkey cart, and called for Bodina, Tom Cruise, Immortal River, and Shi Dazhuang. He then took the yellow dog Awei and a group of hellhounds and quickly left the city gate.
He's going to hunt down Hua Xiaolan!
Donkey Afu galloped off, while Liu Huasheng and the four heroes sat on a flatbed cart, with Yellow Dog Awei leading the way and Roaring and the Nine-Headed Hellhound guarding the left and right.
Liu Huasheng's team was not large, but they were all elite soldiers, and they quickly caught up with Hua Xiaolan's remaining kobold troops in the woods.
Hua Xiaolan's kobold army is now only a few dozen remnants, and their levels are not high. They are still entangled with Sima Zhen's spearman squad in the woods.
Liu Huasheng drove his donkey cart over, glanced at Hua Xiaolan, and immediately shouted, "Kill them!"
Upon hearing this, Bodina, Tom Cruise, Immortal River, and Shi Dazhuang immediately jumped off the cart and each went to find their hunting targets.
This is where Bodina and Shinazugawa's extraordinary abilities become apparent. Bodina is an A-rank hero with an advantage in speed; her running speed surpasses that of the donkey Afu and even those hellhounds.
Shinazugawa has a sliding skill that allows him to slide twenty meters in one step, making him faster than Bodina. He also has ranged attacks, and he quickly raised his crossbow and shot a level 2 heavily armored kobold archer.
Roar and the Nine-Headed Cerberus ran very fast, howling and roaring, exuding murderous intent and posing a great threat.
Meanwhile, Holy Knight Tom Cruise and Pirate Captain Stevens couldn't keep up; the two of them couldn't even run as fast as the flatbed cart.
At this moment, Hua Xiaolan panicked. She wasn't afraid of Bodina or the Immortal River, but the sight of those hellhounds made her scalp tingle. Forget about entanglement with Sima Zhen, she turned and ran towards the Lost Temple, shouting, "Kobolds, cover my retreat!"
The kobolds obeyed and turned back to intercept Bodina, Shinazugawa, and the others, but how could they possibly stop them?
They don't even qualify to act as a slowdown!
Sima Zhen was both surprised and delighted. He ran out of the woods, raised his hands, and shouted to Liu Huasheng, "I'm on friendly forces! Don't let them get away with this! Let's join forces to hunt down the kobolds!"
Liu Huasheng ignored him and shouted commands to direct the battle. He quickly caught up with Hua Xiaolan in his donkey cart.
Hua Xiaolan suddenly stopped, slapped her forehead, and said, "I'm confused! I can dig holes!"
She regained her composure, looked coldly at Liu Huasheng, and said, "The battle between us has only just begun. Don't be too smug. I can fail countless times, but if you fail even once, you're completely finished!"
"Let's get through this today first!"
Liu Huasheng was filled with murderous intent. He raised his arm, and Fushigawa slowly approached from behind. He moved swiftly, leveling his crossbow bolt, ready to attack Hua Xiaolan.
Hua Xiaolan suddenly lay down on the spot, instantly dug a hole, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, as if she were burrowing underground.
"I am the Great Princess of the Dog-Headed Women. I excel at underground work; you can't kill me, hahaha!"
Hua Xiaolan's voice still echoed from the cave, growing weaker and weaker, as if it were rapidly fading away.
When Liu Huasheng arrived at the cave, he found that it was rapidly shrinking and disappeared after two breaths. The ground then returned to its original state, and even the grass had grown back.
"Run? You can run, but you can't hide!"
Liu Huasheng looked up in the direction of the Lost Temple and shouted, "Quickly eliminate the remaining enemies and follow me to the Lost Temple!"
"For the Holy Light!"
"Pirates are not sea pirates!"
"Nothing can break my will!"
"Run towards death!"
"Woof woof woof!"
The five heroes responded swiftly, unleashing their full power and quickly slaying all the kobolds in the forest.
Afterwards, Liu Huasheng drove a donkey cart, taking them quickly to the Lost Temple.
Sima Zhen chased after him, shouting, "Wait for me! I'm coming too! Let's unite and fight together!"
Unfortunately, he received no response. His spearmen were slow and were quickly outpaced by Liu Huasheng's forces.
At this very moment, a battle also broke out near the Lost Temple.
A moment ago, Li Jinfu from Dog Head Holy City tried to enter the Lost Temple, but the three towers guarding the Lost Temple attacked him, hitting him and knocking him back five meters, instantly reducing his health bar by one-third.
He immediately started cursing, and when he turned around, he found that his floating airship was under attack.
The ones who attacked the floating airship were, of course, Guan Zhengxing and Zhou Shuqi.
Zhou Shuqi piloted the Ancient Guardian, which took root and attacked the floating airships in the form of a defensive tower.
Li Jinfu was stunned for a moment, then began to fight Guan Zhengxing. He was the "Kobold General" with a level of LV8 and natural magical skills. He could attack the air and was not at a disadvantage in a one-on-one fight with Guan Zhengxing.
Of course, he wouldn't just stand there and fight Guan Zhengxing head-on. Instead, he would use the terrain to his advantage, moving through the woods and unleashing ranged skills whenever he found an opportunity.
With the assistance of the ancient guardians, Guan Zhengxing's situation will be much easier.
"The airship's durability is running low, damn ice mayflies!"
Li Jinfu, hiding behind a large tree, spat, his eyes darting around, and shouted loudly, "Hey, brothers in the sky, why are you making things difficult for other monsters? I, Li Jinfu, haven't provoked you, so why are you hitting me? Give me a reason!"
Upon hearing this, Guan Zhengxing snorted coldly.
"Does the Great Fenglong King need a reason to kill someone?"
"Don't you need it?"
"Do you need it?"
"Give me one!"
"Heaven creates all things to nourish man, yet man has no virtue to repay Heaven! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Suddenly a madman sharpens his knife in the night, the imperial star sways and Mars is high, the world is turned upside down from this day forward, why hesitate to kill!"
The disloyal deserve to die! The unfilial deserve to die! The inhumane deserve to die! The unjust deserve to die! Those who are impolite, unwise, and untrustworthy, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill…”
Guan Zhengxing loudly recited the "Seven Killings Poem" that he had just memorized. He only wanted to kill this uninvited guest and reduce potential threats, nothing more!
"Damn it, can't you speak human language?!"
Li Jinfu was overwhelmed by the thought, figuring that the guy in the sky was probably a lunatic and impossible to communicate with.
At that moment, at the entrance to the Lost Temple, a figure suddenly leaped out from underground; it was Hua Xiaolan.
She looked disheveled, but she still clutched the golden dog-head scepter tightly in her hand!
Li Jinfu saw Hua Xiaolan, and he was startled, exclaiming, "The Dog-Headed Princess?"
Hua Xiaolan glanced at Li Jinfu upon hearing this, but dared not linger and quickly slipped into the Lost Temple.
"Wait a minute, Princess! I'm the kobold general, looking to team up!"
Li Jinfu hurriedly chased after him, but was quickly repelled by a white light. The kobold statue defensive tower still did not allow him to approach the temple!
"Damn it, why are you hitting me? We're all in cahoots!" Li Jinfu scrambled to his feet and quickly hid behind a big tree. He thought to himself that he had unexpectedly discovered the dog-headed princess. This was a wonderful surprise. If he could recruit her, his great plan would be accomplished!
Just then, the sound of barking rang out, and Liu Huasheng arrived in a donkey cart. He glanced at the Lost Temple and shouted, "All generals, halt! Seal off the four sides and await my command. Cover the men in black as they enter the temple!"
After speaking, Liu Huasheng brought up the management panel of Huaxia Dragon City and quickly operated it. The five men in black in the Conquest Hall immediately turned into light and disappeared. They had already set off and were about to steal from the Lost Temple!
