Chapter 1050: Delivery
Time slipped by second by second!
At the street intersection ten kilometers away, An Jie and the others stood ready, their formation tight!
Even from such a distance, they could still feel the terrifying fluctuations of the battle!
Worry inevitably crept into their hearts!
This high-intensity fight had already lasted over five minutes, and no one knew how much longer Brother Nan and the others could hold out!
Meanwhile, the Ling Xu on this side was about to open!
At this moment, Zhong Yingxue stood alone at the very front, her delicate face full of solemnity!
She pulled out a bottle of Deadly Green Club, tipped her head back, and chugged it down, holding a glass jar in one hand filled with durian pulp inside!
"Boom!"
The large shopping mall was shattered directly by the terrifying spatial fluctuations, and a Space Gate instantly unfolded!
Gusts of wind mixed with spiritual energy blew out from it, and a swarm of Gold-ranked Golden Feather Eagles charged outward in a frenzy!
An Jie's expression changed drastically: "Damn! Flying-type spirit beasts! This..."
Zhong Yingxue stomped her foot, her entire body blazing with raging flames!
"Nine-Headed Black Phoenix: Infinite Barrage!"
Boosted by the fake alcohol, Zhong Yingxue's Nine-Headed Phoenix had grown to nearly a hundred meters in size!
The original crimson flames were now coated in a layer of undying black fire!
And Zhong Yingxue stood at the center of the phoenix!
"Sea of Burning Fury: Lotus Fire Rain: Undying Cang Yan!"
In an instant, the area within a kilometer radius was covered by wave after wave of flames, turning into a sea of Brahma fire!
The immense wings of the nine-headed phoenix flapped continuously, and thousands of Red Lotus Blazing Fire bombs shot out like a meteor shower!
Even more terrifying, at the nine heads, nine massive black fireballs nearly a hundred meters in diameter condensed!
They smashed toward the Space Gate with an unstoppable force!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
In just an instant, the Space Gate was engulfed by relentless bombardment!
Those Gold-ranked spirit beasts hadn't even charged out before they were cremated!
No matter how the beast swarm tried to break through, Zhong Yingxue's overwhelming firepower forced them back!
An Jie and the others stared wide-eyed, their scalps tingling!
Σ(‖⊚口⊚)
What the hell kind of output was this?
Tons and tons of damage thrown out? One person alone holding back an entire Gold-ranked Ling Xu?
Blocking the gate so the beast swarm didn't even have a chance to get out?
And just now, her output in the other battle wasn't even going all out?
"Hiss~ All combined spirit techniques, each one fused with several types?"
"With this freakish control, maximizing output like this is terrifying?"
"But she's only Platinum rank—can her spiritual power hold up?"
In just 49 seconds, Zhong Yingxue emptied all her spiritual power!
She quickly took a bite of durian pulp, instantly refilling her spiritual power to 150% of its total, and then attacked even more ferociously!
An Jie stood behind Zhong Yingxue, waiting for a long time without a single spirit beast breaking through!
She was completely suppressed by Zhong Yingxue!
"Holy shit! It's really an infinite barrage? Savage!"
The people watching the drone broadcast were also going crazy!
"Queen of Flames is supreme! Blast them all! This is so explosive! One Xue holds the gate, ten thousand beasts cannot pass!"
"Ahhh~ I want to charge over and fight alongside them!"
"This Ling Xu is suppressed, so Brother Nan and the others can lighten their burden!"
"No! That's not right! Without the strongest firepower in the team, Brother Nan and the others are having a harder time!"
In fact, that was exactly the case. Without Zhong Yingxue's powerful output, Jiangnan and the others were killing spirit beasts much slower.
Jiangnan's attack power had always been weak, so he could only rely on nuclear milk blasts.
But as time went on, even with Xiao Mila restoring cell nuclear energy, the fatigue in his body couldn't be erased.
Jiangnan's arm, holding the halberd, was trembling!
The kill rate was far slower than the rate at which spirit beasts poured out, which meant more and more spirit beasts filled the battlefield!
Many spirit beasts broke through the front line, but they were intercepted by the second line of defense.
But if this continued, they wouldn't be able to hold out much longer!
Wu Liang spat out a mouthful of blood: "Brother Nan! Why not put on the hat?"
Jiangnan held back a pouncing Hell Hound, reached into its mouth, grabbed its tongue, swung it around three times, then flung it away!
"Not yet—it could cause friendly fire! I'll figure something out!"
Jiangnan wiped the blood from his face, his red eyes fixed on the Space Gate that kept spewing spirit beasts!
He had to solve the problem at the source!
With a flick of his hand, he opened a spatial wormhole and punched Wu Liang in the chest!
"Left Space Gate! Don't worry about anything! Charge in! Taunt them!"
Wu Liang didn't hesitate and roared: "Barbarian Charge!"
Instantly, several sonic booms rang out. Wu Liang, pushing through the surging beast tide, forcibly charged into the Space Gate!
He also activated 'Refuse to Surrender, Hit Me,' crushing all the spirit beasts along the way as he advanced madly!
People watching the video were stunned!
"He charged into the Ling Xu himself? Is he courting death?"
Then Jiangnan turned back and raised his hand: "Big Wolfbane!"
A flash of silver light veered sharply, charging over at a speed invisible to the naked eye!
He raised his hand and slapped Jiangnan's palm!
(#・᷅~・᷄)۶٩(ᵒ̌~ᵒ̌。)≡═─
A crisp slap echoed!
Without a word, Jiangnan pulled two radiation-free hydrogen bombs from his Alternate Dimension and hoisted them onto his shoulders!
୧氢(ꐦಠ益ಠꐦ)氢୨
He then plunged headlong into the right Space Gate without looking back!
In the underground shelter, Li Muyan's eyes turned red!
"No! Don't!"
Panic spread among the people!
"What did Brother Nan just shoulder? That white thing? Looks familiar?"
"That's... that's the latest model of hydrogen bomb! I've seen it described in books!"
"Hiss~ Is he serious? Has he gone mad? Carrying a hydrogen bomb into the Ling Xu? Can... can he survive?"
"Nuclear Explosion Meng Nan isn't called that for nothing. That's so reckless! But seriously, why does he carry nuclear bombs on him?"
People's hearts tightened. Some even began to wipe their tears!
(๑ʘ̆﹏ʘ̥̆) To protect everyone, knowing he would die, he still charged in with a nuclear bomb?
Tears dripped onto their phone screens.
But before they could finish crying, Jiangnan suddenly appeared beside Xia Yao!
One of the hydrogen bombs on his shoulder was missing!
He tilted his head back and roared: "Everyone opposite the Space Gate, get out of the way! Don't get blasted again!"
"Spatial Displacement!"
The next moment, Wu Liang, drenched in blood and nearly killed by the spirit beasts, suddenly appeared beside Xia Yao!
And Jiangnan appeared inside the left Ling Xu, besieged by a sea of spirit beasts!
He teleported into the sky, dropped a hydrogen bomb!
"Marked Teleportation!"
In an instant, Jiangnan vanished from the Ling Xu!
He appeared beside Xia Yao!
Then he pulled the two of them, teleported into the sky, put up a spatial barrier to stand on, and planted his fists on his hips!
(#◔ᴗ◔ิ(#‾᷄◡‾᷅#)◕㉨◕#)
"Boom!"
First, a loud explosion came from the right Ling Xu, then from the left!
The next moment, fierce flames shot out from the hundred-meter-wide Space Gate!
Like two rocket engines!
Scorching high temperatures mixed with flames surged out for tens of kilometers!
Everything along the path was destroyed, and even some spirit beasts that had charged into the city center were incinerated!
In the blink of an eye, black smoke billowed from the two Ling Xu Space Gates!
No more spirit beasts surged out—the two hydrogen bombs had killed a lot!
Jiangnan and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief, gaining a moment to catch their breath.
The people watching the broadcast were dumbfounded. He didn't die?
You can't trick people's tears like that! We don't know whether to laugh or cry!
Carrying two hydrogen bombs into the Ling Xu and setting them off?
That's just too awesome!
Seeing him standing there with his fists on his hips, why does it feel like setting off two firecrackers?
Wu Liang was ecstatic!
"We can't use large-scale weapons in the city center, but we can in the Ling Xu!"
"Brother Nan, what a brain! Set off a few more!"
Jiangnan smiled bitterly: "These are the last two—my treasured possessions. The rest were all used up in the Void Sea!"
"Hurry and recover some energy; we'll have to fight again soon!"
Sure enough, it didn't stay quiet for long before both Ling Xus started spewing out blackened spirit beasts again!
Wu Liang and Xia Yao looked grim. This isn't over?
But Jiangnan froze. He really had no more.
Why not have someone send him some?
Jiangnan's eyes fell on a few flying drones!
He quickly rushed to the camera and shouted: "Brother Jian! See me? Express delivery! Hurry! Don't forget!"
After shouting, he went back down to kill spirit beasts!
The people watching the broadcast were stunned. With the situation so urgent and him so badly wounded, he still had time to shout about picking up a package?
What did he buy?
...
In the Kyoto Secretary-General's Office, Nightingale burst in, her eyes full of anxiety!
"Secretary-General! Jiangnan called you, asking you to pick up his express delivery?"
Yang Jian was confused: (·•᷄ࡇ•᷅) "Huh? What delivery?"
Wasn't Jiangnan blocking the gate in Qing City?
Nightingale quickly showed Yang Jian the broadcast footage!
Seeing Qing City destroyed beyond recognition, his heart bled!
"How's the situation?"
Nightingale quickly said: "They've held the line. No large-scale casualties for now!"
"But in several cities of the Western Frontier, the Spirit Martial forces are fighting extremely hard, but they've held!"
Yang Jian clenched his fists. Just hold on a little longer; reinforcements will be here soon!
When Yang Jian saw Jiangnan charge into the Ling Xu carrying two hydrogen bombs, the corner of his mouth twitched!
He suddenly understood what Jiangnan meant by 'express delivery.'
The kid had run out of firecrackers!
"Order the Yin Province and Lan Province Dragon Abyss Bases, ICBM silos 686 to 696, to launch missiles! Nuclear code: Jade Shatter!"
"Strike interval: 60 seconds!"
Nightingale's scalp tingled: "We're... we're already at the point of launching nuclear missiles? Where to?"
Yang Jian grinned: "Qing City! City center! Send some express delivery to that kid!"
Nightingale's eyes widened in shock!
(˵ಠ口ಠ) What?
