Chapter 59 - 59 Invincible? Nothing Is Absolute!
59 Invincible? Nothing Is Absolute!
Fang Tianyu was extremely smart and naturally understood this principle. She did not hesitate and put away the 20 Breakthrough Stones. She looked at Wang Xiao and said seriously, “I’ll take these Breakthrough Stones as loans. I’ll definitely return them to you after I accumulate enough!”
“Actually, you don’t have to collect them to return them to me.”
Wang Xiao smiled and said softly under Fang Tianyu’s puzzled gaze, “I heard that the Fang family has a material called the [Mutated Core]…”
Ever since Wang Xiao had tasted the sweetness of upgrading with the [Mutated Core] last time, he had been unable to forget about it. Therefore, he asked Ma Yunle to investigate in private and wanted to buy a few more [Mutated Cores].
However, this thing was even rarer than the Breakthrough Stone. No one sold it on the market at all. Ma Yunle spent a lot of effort to find out that the Fang family had a [Mutated Core]. In the end, when he went to ask, he was almost beaten out.
After Wang Xiao heard this, he no longer had any hope. However, he did not expect to encounter such a wonderful opportunity today.
At this critical moment of life and death, he believed that Fang Tianyu would not refuse to exchange 20 Breakthrough Stones for the [Mutated Core].
As expected, Fang Tianyu revealed a difficult expression after hearing this. This also meant that there was still room for negotiation.
Wang Xiao saw this and knew what was going on. He waved his hand and said indifferently, “You don’t have to give me an answer now. You can discuss it with your family after you return.”
When Fang Tianyu heard this, a smile suddenly bloomed on her cold face. “Do you really believe that we can return alive?”
“With me around, why not?”
Wang Xiao smiled calmly. There was no high tone or excitement, but the powerful confidence revealed in his calmness made Fang Tianyu suddenly have a strange emotion in her heart.
“Yes! We can definitely go back!”
Fang Tianyu blushed and nodded heavily. Suddenly, a sharp whistle sounded!
Almost at the same time, a red light pierced through the city wall, grazing Fang Tianyu’s shoulder and blasting a charred pit in the ground. If not for Wang Xiao’s quick reflexes, she would have already been pierced by the red light!
There was no time for them to react in fear . Fang Tianyu hurriedly brought the Breakthrough Stones into her territory. The enemy had already arrived. She had to hurry up and let the Snow Elf complete its breakthrough!
At the same time, the others in the base also moved.
The battle started again without any warning. Wang Xiao summoned the Ice Thunder Horn Wolf and climbed up the city wall. He led more than ten Blue Planet lords to attack the figure in the distant sky crazily.
At the same time, Yang Fan, Tang Hengshan, and Han Bufan quietly left through the side door. Their mission was to circle behind Andu and provoke him.
If they could lure Andu away, they could buy more time for the base. Even if they couldn’t, they could cooperate with Wang Xiao and the others in the base and let the lone Andu be attacked from both sides.
This was Wang Xiao’s last plan, and also the only plan he could think of that could allow everyone to survive.
However, Wang Xiao quickly realized that something was wrong. This Andu was actually even more sinister than he had expected!
When he was still 300 to 400 meters away from the base, Andu suddenly stopped.
This distance far exceeded the attack range of ordinary soldiers. Other than the [Platinum Level 2] Ice Thunder Horn Wolf, the other soldiers could not attack Andu at all. Even the attack of the [Lava Raging Bear] could not reach that far.
On the other hand, Andu’s [Annihilation Light] could attack the base three to four hundred meters away. Although this distance would greatly reduce his accuracy, he was here to destroy the base this time and did not care about accuracy at all!
Swoosh! Swoosh!
With just a few red lights, more than half of the fortifications in the base were destroyed.
Although no one was injured for the time being, the number of soldiers on Wang Xiao’s side was also greatly reduced. Even the Ice Thunder Horn Wolf had one of its front claws cut off, turning into fragments of light that disappeared!
“Is this the true strength of the Crimson Star Royal Family…”
Wang Xiao looked at the apocalyptic scene and muttered to himself. Facing the powerful strength that Andu suddenly erupted with, he was actually at a loss for a moment!
Wang Xiao suddenly recalled a quote—In the face of absolute strength, all schemes were useless.
The insurmountable gap between a junior lord and an intermediate lord was displayed in front of him in such a tragic manner!
In just a few seconds, the once prosperous base was in ruins, and Andu’s attack finally stopped.
In the distance, Andu’s hands were hanging in the air. Although the previous attack had forced him into a sorry state, he still had a disdainful smile on his face as he slowly walked towards the base, as if he was admiring his masterpiece.
When Wang Xiao came back to his senses, everyone was gathered beside him. Even Tang Hengshan and the others had returned.
Seeing Wang Xiao’s dejected appearance, Zhou Xiruo forced a smile. “Wang Xiao… don’t blame yourself too much. After all, we’re only level two lords. It’s already very good that we can last until now.”
“That’s right. If not for you, we would probably have died long ago.”
“Wang Xiao! It’s all your fault! If we had made fortifications from the beginning, we might have been able to last a little longer!”
“Don’t be naive! The enemy is so strong that our fortifications can’t withstand it at all!”
…
The lords of the Blue Planet spoke one after another. Some were grateful, some were angry, but most of them looked at the ground with ashen faces, as if they had already given up struggling.
The live-stream was also silent. The camera flashed past these young lords who had just awakened one by one. The screen was not covered by any comments and everyone’s expressions could be seen clearly.
The camera finally landed on Wang Xiao’s face. He was looking at Andu, who was walking over in the distance. The audience was surprised to discover that he was actually revealing a thoughtful expression.
“We still have a chance.”
Wang Xiao suddenly said.
“…”
Everyone looked at each other in silence. It was obvious that they did not want to say anything. In the end, Zhou Xiruo asked, “Do you have another plan?”
“No.”
Wang Xiao shook his head, his eyes still looking at Andu in the distance. “But neither does he.”
Seeing that everyone did not seem to understand, Wang Xiao thought for a moment and asked, “Why do you think a noble Crimson Star Royal Family attacked us personally?”
Tang Hengshan snorted. “We can’t even defeat Andu. If he summons more demon soldiers, we’ll only die faster!”
The others nodded in agreement when they heard this. They did not understand why Wang Xiao was thinking about this. Could it be that he was tired of dying too slowly?
“No! What Wang Xiao is saying makes sense!”
Zhou Xiruo suddenly thought of something and said, “When Andu first appeared, he even had to sit on the shoulder of the demon commander when he walked. However, after our first stage of attack ended, he didn’t summon any more demons!”
“That seems to be true!”
Everyone’s expressions changed slightly, and new hope reignited in their eyes. They seemed to understand what Wang Xiao meant.
