Chapter 1445: What Kind of Hellish Start Is This?
The orange light was none other than the aftermath of Jiangnan's firecracker explosion and his beam clash with One-Eyed King Yego!
The Zeus, which had just arrived in lunar orbit, hadn't even had time to land!
It was hit by a wave of debris thrown into space by the nuclear explosion!
Just barely dodging that, they then faced a dense rain of energy jets!
Overwhelming, this was much faster than the debris rain!
Martin panicked, grabbed Piers' sleeve and shook it wildly!
Σ(ʘ̆Yiʘ̥̆|||)ﾉﾉ "Dodge! Quickly dodge, dammit! The lives of tens of thousands of people on this ship are all in your hands!"
Piers' eyes bulged!
(ZYiZ◟J) "Alright, alright! Stop shaking me, dammit! You're about to tear my sleeve off!"
"Space Vortex!"
The energy jets came in an instant; Piers had no time to teleport and directly warped the space in front of the Zeus.
A large amount of energy jets were swallowed and refracted.
But Piers' Space Vortex couldn't completely cover the massive Zeus.
The spacecraft was still hit by over a dozen energy jets, blasted straight through.
It exploded in a huge fireball, and many people were sucked out into space through the breach by the gushing air.
Weini:!!!
"Everyone put on combat spacesuits! Protect the Doll Troop's containers!"
If hit, that's tens of thousands of lives per container!
Fortunately, the Space Vortex blocked it a bit, and Piers teleported the entire Zeus again.
By now, the Zeus had been riddled with holes by the energy jets.
It was clearly about to be scrapped!
It had completely lost landing capability and plummeted head-first toward the lunar crater peak.
Piers's eyes were wide with rage: "Ground! What the hell is going on? How can there be such high-intensity laser jets on the moon?"
Red light one moment, blue-purple the next? Are the One-Eyed Species having a rave on the moon?
At that moment, the Mi Guo Star Navigation Bureau naturally noticed the situation in Tongcheng within the Kira Crater!
But the survey satellite's capabilities were limited, and it couldn't clearly capture what was happening in Tongcheng.
Moreover, Jiangnan and the others were still in stealth mode; the satellite couldn't see them.
They only knew that Tongcheng exploded, and then there was a beam clash?
"I don't know! The One-Eyed Species' base exploded for some reason, over half destroyed!"
"Just now, it seemed to capture a huge, dark thing having a beam clash with the One-Eyed Species in the base! One blue, one purple!"
"Shit, shit, shit! Dodge quickly! You all... zzzzzt~"
The communication was cut off.
Martin was dumbfounded: Σ(°△°|||) "Beam clash? A dark thing? That blue energy looks kind of familiar to me?"
"Could it be Jiangnan? Zeus One was blown up by Jiangnan's Godslayer Cannon, right?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
Could that bastard Jiangnan have gone to cause trouble at the One-Eyed Species' base?
You've only been on the moon for a few hours, dammit? Do you have to act so fast?
Weini panicked: ୧(⁎˃～˂⁎)୨ "Never mind that! The Zeus is about to crash!"
It's about to plunge head-first into the mountain, okay?
Martin raised an eyebrow: (ᵒ～ᵒ᷅O) "Do you think I, Star-Plucker Martin, am just here for show? Crash? Not happening!"
His ability was gravity control; making the Zeus float was a piece of cake.
Martin spread his arms: "Free Gravity!"
The Zeus, hurtling toward the mountain, slowed down rapidly and finally stopped in midair.
He single-handedly prevented the Zeus from crashing.
Everyone in the spacecraft breathed a sigh of relief.
But the next moment, the towering crater was cast into a large shadow by purple light.
It directly enveloped the Zeus.
Weini stared blankly out the window: "What is tha..."
"Boom!"
The entire crater was bombarded by a kilometer-long purple beam, and powerful energy surged toward the Zeus.
Piers:!!!
Damn it!
Teleport!
At the critical moment, Piers couldn't possibly take the massive Zeus and dodge.
He could only teleport the Lunar Expedition Force tens of thousands of meters away.
No sooner had they left than the Zeus exploded.
This beam was none other than Yego's Star Pupil Cannon, which after dispersing the Godslayer Cannon, blasted over in one go.
At that moment, Piers and the more than three thousand members of the Lunar Expedition Force stood dumbfounded on the moon, watching the Zeus ablaze.
(≖﹏≖(≖▾≖(≖ι_≖(≖Ĺ̯≖)…
The Star Pupil Cannon flashed past, heading straight into outer space.
The crater was blasted into a crescent-shaped semicircle.
Magma flowed freely.
Looking along the trajectory of the Star Pupil Cannon, everything along the way was destroyed.
Piers: (◞P_P◟)…
Weini: (￢д￢。)…
Lunar Expedition Force: ⊂[┐'_'┌]⊃ We're done for...
Martin's eyelid twitched.
(〝▼皿▼) "Old Piers! Did you leave without checking the almanac, dammit? Why does the cannon hit wherever you teleport? Can you be any unluckier?"
He was starting to suspect that Piers was a mole.
Piers darkened: (̿▀̿̿Ĺ̯̿̿▀̿̿◟) "How the hell would I know? Without me, you'd all be dead!"
Weini looked dejected.
(ノhe￣、) "What do we do now? No one told me this moon trip was a one-way ticket?"
"We came here fine... now we can't go back?"
Even if Piers could teleport people, he couldn't teleport tens of thousands back to Lan Xing, right?
At this moment, the Lunar Expedition Force was completely panicked.
What does this mean? They left us on the moon?
Starting with a blown-up spaceship? Tens of thousands stranded on the moon with no way back?
What kind of crappy start is this, dammit!
Martin gritted his teeth: "At least Old Piers is fine. First, contact headquarters on the ground and find out what's going on!"
...
Meanwhile, at the Mi Guo Star Navigation Bureau!
Napa's eyes were red as he looked at the footage from the lunar satellite, standing on his desk and cursing.
The Zeus exploded?
Do you know how many billions of dollars it cost to build this spacecraft?
Now there are so many small countries outside waiting for cooperation talks. With this start, how the hell am I supposed to explain?
"It's bad, Lord Napa! For some reason, the One-Eyed Species have gone mad!"
"The One-Eyed Species at the Moon Eye and in Tongcheng have gone berserk, as if chasing something! They're already heading toward Piers and the others!"
Napa's eyes widened and he quickly looked at the big screen.
In the image, the One-Eyed Species armies coming from both sides moved at an astonishing speed.
Tens of thousands of Star Pupil Cannons fired wildly, as if hitting something, but the satellite couldn't capture it.
Σ(っ°Д°;)っ "Oh shit! Hurry! Notify Piers and the others to relocate!"
(ง⋟Yi⋞)ง "It's not possible! The Zeus is blown up, we're trying to reestablish communication!"
Napa:!!!
"Motherfucker! Quickly! Use the communication satellite to connect to their team frequency! Hurry!"
At this moment, Napa stared at the big screen and cursed nonstop.
As if he had become Motherfuckerman!
...
Meanwhile, Jiangnan and his group of five were still being chased by the One-Eyed army.
Ahead of them was a towering crater.
Behind the crater, they could even see rolling lunar dust being kicked up.
Li Bing said urgently: "Brother Jiangnan! Something's wrong! The Yuzu-rank One-Eyed Species from the Moon Eye seem to be chasing us!"
"Quickly change direction, or we'll be surrounded!"
But Jiangnan didn't care at all; he lowered his head and ran toward that direction, a smirk curling at the corner of his mouth.
(๑tuta๑) "Not afraid! I've 'seen' it, I have a plan!"
His telekinesis spread out, and every movement along the way was constantly reflected in Jiangnan's mind.
Chen Daoyi:!!!
"You're not afraid, but I am! If you have an uncle in mind, then run in another direction! With wolves ahead and tigers behind, we won't escape!"
Jiangnan's eyes widened, and he used telekinesis to pound Chen Daoyi's stomach.
What the hell 'have an uncle in mind'!
Still trying to take advantage of me?
"Boom!"
The crater ahead was blasted into rubble by hundreds of Star Pupil Cannons.
Tens of thousands of Yuzu-rank One-Eyed Species glared fiercely at Jiangnan.
Jiangnan braked sharply and stopped in midair.
Aige and the other One-Eyed Species from Tongcheng also caught up.
Seeing that the Moon Eye mining team had also arrived, their eyes lit up.
"Stop running! This planet is only so big; you can't escape! Hand over the Incense Bead and the Origin Spark obediently!"
"Otherwise, we'll make sure you die without a burial place!"
Jiangnan completely ignored them, smirked, and raised his hand to flip off the One-Eyed Species on both sides with a middle finger!
┌∩┐(˶‾᷄▽‾᷅˵)┌∩┐
Li Bing and the others' eyes widened.
In this situation, please stop provoking them, okay? Our hearts really can't take such shocks!
Aige was furious, veins bulging on his forehead.
"I've never seen such an arrogant Antenna Clan before!"
"All units! Star Pupil Cannon volley fire!"
At this moment, the One-Eyed Species on both sides assumed horse stances and got into position.
Fierce energy gathered crazily into their eyes.
Many other One-Eyed Species were responsible for line-of-sight locking, trying to completely seal off Jiangnan's escape routes.
Jiangnan looked surprised: "No way? It really works? Could flipping the bird be the universal expression of contempt across the entire universe?"
Ailisi covered her face:!!!
"Aren't they attacking you because your expression is too arrogant?"
"Even without flipping them off, they'd still attack you!"
"Boom!"
On both sides, tens of thousands of Star Pupil Cannons fired at Jiangnan, even mixed with line-of-sight locking.
Even Yang Jian and the others in the Celestial Star Bureau were panicking. In this situation, why wasn't he dodging?
Now is not the time to show off, okay?
But at that moment, two pairs of thirty-meter-diameter space wormholes instantly opened on either side of Jiangnan's body.
Both sides were entrances.
And the exits were aimed at the One-Eyed Species armies on both sides.
"Space Wormhole: Borrowing Cannons to Kill!"
Under the cover of the space wormholes, the figures of Jiangnan and the other four were completely obscured.
Not only did it break the line-of-sight lock, but it also redirected the attack.
The extremely intense Star Pupil Cannons converged into the wormholes, and the powerful purple energy completely engulfed the five.
From the wormhole exits, Star Pupil Cannons shot out one after another, like a rain of lasers.
Even in front of the exits, Jiangnan had placed two amplification curse arrays.
To enhance the power of the Star Pupil Cannons.
Like falling rain, the Star Pupil Cannons bombarded the One-Eyed Species armies.
Because of the wormholes, it became a mutual bombardment between the two sides of One-Eyed Species, and an enhanced version at that.
