# Chapter 1602: Counterattack! Commence! (Bonus Chapter)
"BOOM!"
With a thunderous blast, the hard lunar rock at the bottom of the Moon Eye suddenly exploded. A One-Eyed was still diligently mining there!
A angle grinder-like blade sliced up from underground, violently splitting it open from the middle!
Half of its body was cleaved apart!
One-Eyed: ???
I... I'm split?
The next moment, Jiangnan and his group burst out from underground!
Such a commotion naturally alerted the One-Eyed Army at the bottom of the Moon Eye!
"Human intruders! Attack!"
Instantly, countless Star Pupil Cannons fired wildly at them, illuminating the Moon Eye's floor with blinding light!
Bai Kou squinted: (❅ᄑ～ᄑ) "Frostfall•Ninety-Nine Layers of Snow!"
In an instant, ninety-nine massive ice crystal snowflakes materialized before Bai Kou!
Blocking the storm of Star Pupil Cannons!
Jiangnan instantly teleported everyone away, arriving at one side of the Moon Eye's rock wall!
With their backs against the wall, they wouldn't be attacked from all directions!
Jiangnan's eyes burned with madness!
"The Star-Devouring Giant Worm is handled! Humans have nothing to fear now! The groundwork is laid—let's start the fight!"
"This is a war we must win!"
"Bai Kou, establish a defensive position here! Bad Sister, go help! I'll open the door!"
At this moment, everyone's faces flushed with excitement. Had the Nine Heavens Moon-Grasping Plan finally reached its final stage?
"Winter Solstice•Extreme Cold Ice Peak!"
Bai Kou had gone completely wild. To ignite the star, she was willing to sacrifice everything!
"BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!"
Giant ice peaks rose from the ground, continuously expanding!
The mountains encircled Jiangnan and the others, forming a defensive fortress!
"Blizzard•Silent Snow!"
Black snowflakes sharp as blades drifted down, scattering everywhere!
Mi Ye pulled out countless spider threads, weaving webs between the ice peaks, turning the entire Honey Ice City into an integrated whole!
Those webs could autonomously absorb spiritual energy, were extremely tough, and boasted MAX-level defense!
Jiangnan wasn't idle either!
(ꐦ°᷄皿°᷅) "Think you're so many? Watch me call in the reinforcements from home!"
As he spoke, he opened an Alternate Dimension and pulled out the 300-meter Star Ring he'd been carrying!
He directly fixed and connected it!
"Third Brother, guard the door!"
"Got it!"
Zhang San zapped over like lightning and hugged the Star Gate!
In that instant, the entire Star Gate disappeared along with Zhang San!
After all, this guy had once blatantly stolen Star Chart fragments right in front of people's eyes!
Under the power of the Oracle's Tear, the Star Gate vortex emerged!
But as the position was established, more and more One-Eyed charged in!
Even Mi Ye and Bai Kou could barely hold on!
...
Meanwhile, on Blue Star, Golden Island in the Pacific Ocean!
Pangbadi's Arsenal!
Ever since the last attack by Rhea, a God-Slaying Spell Array had been erected here!
The other Star Ring was no longer in Goose Country; Cronov had secretly moved it to the Golden Island Arsenal!
Now, tens of thousands of joint international Spirit Martial forces had all gathered here!
Except for a few guerrilla teams harassing Tongcheng, every available hand was here!
The entire Moon Alliance base, aside from a skeleton crew for basic operations, had no high-end combatants in the city!
They had all secretly moved to Golden Island in batches!
Pulling off a classic empty-city strategy!
To prevent information leaks, once personnel entered the God-Slaying Spell Array, they were forbidden from contacting the outside world!
Now, large numbers of troops were equipped with anti-Pupil weapons!
Many mages had Pocket Rabbits on their heads, stuffed with Tonggang cannonball supplies!
Over 100,000 high-end combatants were gathered in the Horn Plaza, waiting!
In the center of the plaza stood a Star Ring!
Even Yang Jian was on Golden Island!
Everything was done in secret, to align with Jiangnan's plan!
Prepare the manpower and launch the counterattack!
Pangbadi was being carried over by Omega and Alpha!
He looked utterly exhausted!
Sunken eyes, hollow cheeks, big dark circles, dry-heaving as he walked!
(›꒪ͦཀ꒪ͦ‹)…
"Ugh... ugh-wah... ugh... Everyone got their gear?"
Yang Jian smiled wryly: (´-◡-`；) "Boss Pang, you've worked hard!"
Pangbadi slapped his thigh:
(›ꆤᯅꆤ‹) "Worked hard? That's an understatement! I've worked myself to the bone! If this doesn't get me an Origin Spark, that's just not fair!"
To produce Tonggang, he'd eaten durian pulp until he threw up!
Later, when he couldn't eat anymore, dozens of healers surrounded him, spamming healing spells to keep him going!
Pangbadi didn't know how he'd survived this period!
But one thing was for sure: he never wanted to generate Tonggang again in this life!
Yang Jian smiled: "We'll definitely arrange things for Boss Pang. But you're so exhausted, you don't have to go into battle, right?"
Pangbadi squinted, killing intent surging in his eyes: "That bastard killed so many of my Golden Island people! Twice! I have to go back and kill them to feel better!"
"My Haitang people's lives count too!"
"By the way, where's Brother Odin? Why isn't he here?"
Yang Jian rubbed his nose: (͡°ก͡°) "He said he had some business with the Light Society and left first!"
Before leaving, Yang Jian gave Odin a Jade Shatter Bead, which Jiangnan had asked him to pass on!
Yang Jian didn't know what it meant!
Actually, Odin didn't really want to get involved in this Moon counterattack; it might expose him!
So after the God-Slaying Spell Array was built, he left!
Otherwise, he might not have been able to control himself!
But everyone had been waiting here for over ten hours and couldn't wait any longer!
Bruce urged: (◞ŏ益ŏ) "It won't be long before dawn on the far side of the moon!"
"If Jiangnan hasn't dealt with the Star-Devouring Giant Worm by then, once dawn comes, those One-Eyed won't be fightable!"
Even Ku Po, the Vice President of the International Spirit Martial Alliance and Hell's Messenger, was present!
He frowned deeply: "Putting off the counterattack until now, pinning everything on Jiangnan alone—isn't that too reckless?"
"The moon can't survive this dawn. The Moon Alliance base is practically defenseless. If it's attacked..."
Yang Jian took a deep breath: "Then abandon the base. Huaxia's Star Ring is there. With the God-Slaying Spell Array's blessing, we can evacuate personnel!"
"I don't know how far Jiangnan has gotten either! But at this point, we have no other choice!"
They wanted to say more, but just then, the Star Ring that had been silent for so long suddenly lit up!
A powerful spatial fluctuation surged out!
Everyone's eyes lit up. Yang Jian shot to his feet!
(･`口･´O) "Is it done?"
If the Star Ring connected, it meant Jiangnan had dealt with the Star-Devouring Giant Worm and was ready to call in reinforcements for the counterattack!
Yang Jian's eyes gradually turned bloodshot!
"There's still time! Everyone! Charge with me! Take this war before dawn! Victory belongs to humanity!"
With that, he led the charge!
Everyone in the Horn Plaza, eyes red, rushed toward the Star Ring!
A tsunami of soldiers surged forward!
The moment Yang Jian led his people through, before they could even see their surroundings, their vision was filled with purple Star Pupil Cannon fire!
A huge, blood-spitting Teletubbie flew in, crashing into the surging Alliance army!
It even sent Yang Jian flying!
It was Jiangnan!
In the short time he'd set up the Star Ring and called for reinforcements,
the defensive position built by Mi Ye and Bai Kou had already collapsed!
Because the One-Eyed Army at the bottom of the Moon Eye was terrifyingly numerous—nearly fifty thousand!
To prevent the Star Gate from being shattered, Jiangnan didn't dare dodge and had to take the attacks head-on!
He was completely charred black by the Star Pupil Cannons!
Everyone stared at this blackened Teletubbie, stunned!
Was... was this Jiangnan?
And why was he carrying a dead man on his back?
This was the bottom of the Moon Eye?
Sss~ Had the battle already started? It was this intense?
Jiangnan spat out a mouthful of blood foam and stood up: "What are you staring at? Fight! Fight back!"
"The Star-Devouring Giant Worm is already handled!"
Hearing this news, everyone's faces lit up with excitement!
Pangbadi roared!
٩(›´口`‹)و "Attack! Fight with everything we've got! Suppressing fire!"
"I suffered all that hell just for this moment!"
As waves of joint forces poured in, humans finally unleashed their firepower!
Soldiers began pulling equipment out of Pocket Rabbits!
Massive electromagnetic cannons and anti-aircraft guns with huge barrel diameters were set up on the ground!
Lightning-type spirit warriors provided electricity, and Tonggang shells fired wildly!
Dazzling lightning lit up the Moon Eye!
Gatling-style fire mage squads, carrying huge ammunition boxes, fired continuously!
Muzzle flames shot out dozens of meters, never stopping! Tonggang armor-piercing bullets rained down like hail!
Melee fighters wore Tonggang chainmail, wielded large choppers, armor-breaking awls, and all kinds of cold weapons, charging into battle!
The fierce firepower pushed back the first wave of the One-Eyed Army!
Remember, the strength of this Tonggang was produced using Ava's eye membrane!
One hit was enough to break the defense of a Yuzu-ranked One-Eyed!
Yang Jian roared: "Deploy infrared imagers! Launch thermobaric bombs!"
With his command, soldiers swiftly set up imagers!
Then, soldiers carrying grenade launchers unleashed a volley at the One-Eyed!
These weren't ordinary grenades!
Inside were Horse Dung Bacteria Packs—a rare spiritual fungus that could even be used as medicine!
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The Horse Dung Bacteria Packs exploded on the battlefield, releasing thick black smoke!
It was all fungal spores. One pack could blacken a battlefield hundreds of meters wide!
Even in a vacuum, it could drift for a long time!
Like a smokescreen, it blocked the One-Eyed's line of sight and prevented visual lock-on!
The One-Eyed had their tricks, and we had ours!
One of humanity's greatest advantages was using tools wisely to turn the situation in their favor!
Climb mountains, cross rivers—as long as you dared to think and act, no difficulty was insurmountable!
At this moment, the Lunar Counterattack had fully erupted at the bottom of the Moon Eye!
It was revenge for the last dawn defeat, and the roar of humanity's indomitable spirit!
