novelDestroy the City!
| ← Ch.1250 | Ch.1252 → |
Liujian Pass was broken just like that? Was it that easy?
The head of the family looked at his slave in shock."Are you sure? How long ago did the Wei Wu Army leave Nangeng City? Even if they advanced at full speed, it would have only been two hours since they arrived at Liujian Pass. How did they break through just like that?"
"Not only have they broken through, " said the slave as he panted, "The Liujian Pass no longer exists!"
"Liujian Pass has been destroyed?!" Someone shouted in shock.
The wealthy families in the palace seemed to have received this piece of news at the same time. Then, everyone fell silent.
Liujian Pass was distinguished in the history of the Luniverse. Many battles had happened at Liujian Pass. Every battle won proved how sturdy Liujian Pass was.
Currently, Duanmu Huangqi controlled Liujian Pass. Even when he gathered the 200 thousand soldiers, he did not use the guards from Liujian Pass. Thus, the wealthy families in the palace assumed that even if Liujian Pass was eventually destroyed, it would only happen a month later.
But just when they had said this, they were slapped in the face with the news!
But this was because they did not know that Lu Shu had obtained the Armor that Shook Mountains. Duanmu Huangqi did not even want to face this item. They also did not know that Lu Shu had advanced to the master realm on Earth.
In reality, no one had expected this. To the wealthy families in the palace, Lu Shu had only advanced to Rank One when he left the palace. They had no doubt that the strange and massive heavenly vision belonged to Lu Shu.
How long had it been since that vision? Not even one year. Who would have expected that Lu Shu would have advanced to the master realm?
If there was information asymmetry, there would be a world of difference. The guards at Liujian Pass did not expect that this would happen. Thus, when the Wei Wu Army arrived, although the commander of the guards knew that they might not be able to defend the pass, he shouted, "Fight to the death! Don't retreat!"
But when the group of Imperial Palace Soldiers started to run wildly, they felt that something was wrong. Zhang Weiyu and the rest displayed a stubborn aura as they accelerated in the sky. Lu Shu did not immediately attack, as Li Liang wanted to show him the greatest defensive structure in the Luniverse.
He also wanted to show him how the Imperial Palace Soldiers would destroy this defensive structure!
The Liujian Pass was situated between two mountain ranges. The mountains were lofty and steep. Zhang Weiyu and the rest could fly over, but Li Heitan and the others could not!
Suddenly, a hidden door on the wall of Liujian Pass opened. Behind the hidden door were guards. Each group of 12 guards worked together and pushed a massive crossbow.
Before Zhang Weiyu and the rest could get closer, the 12 soldiers drew the crossbow and prepared to strike. Platinum veins started to appear on the crossbow and on the arrow.
The silver arrows flew towards Zhang Weiyu and the rest with a roar. It flew through the air at a speed faster than Zhang Weiyu and the rest!
Lu Shu wanted to attack, but was stopped by Li Liang."Great Lord, do not panic. We are prepared!"
The moment the crossbow fired, Zhang Weiyu led the others to descend. They knew that the crossbows existed from the very beginning and were prepared.
As the commander of the Black Feather Army, how could he not have known that this trump card existed in Liujian Pass? The crossbow was called the Silver Wing. It was used to attack and kill Rank One experts who flew to the pass.
The dust that Zhang Weiyu and the rest kicked up while they ran seemed to be able to reach Liujian Pass. The black armor made them look like beasts that swept over the land. They were ferocious.
They did not intend to fly up again. Instead, over 50 Imperial Palace Soldiers worked together and crashed into the section of the city wall. Black hexagons appeared on the Armor that Shook Mountains they were wearing and formed a wall. They crashed into the city wall.
Closely after, the black energy shot out from the Armor that Shook Mountains like flames from hell. The force of the collision circulated around the sign and returned to Liujian Pass!
Cracks started to appear at the bottom of Liujian Pass. They started to stretch upwards. No one expected that Zhang Weiyu and the rest would break through Liujian Pass with such direct and explosive power. They used the characteristics of the Armor that Shook Mountains and the speed of over 50 soldiers to destroy the foundation of Liujian Pass!
The cracks at the bottom were like spider webs that continued to spread upwards. Within the cracks, the energy transmitted by the Armor that Shook Mountains was like black lightning that continued to travel upwards. The commander of the guards, who had told his soldiers to fight to the death, looked at his surroundings in shock. Even the peaks that they had relied on as natural shields were shaking!
Lu Shu calmly watched this happen. This was the first time the over 50 Rank One experts released all the energy in the Armor that Shook Mountains. The destruction that this combined power could bring about was frightening.
"Run away!" The commander of Liujian Pass roared."Liujian Pass is about to be destroyed!"
But it was too late for them to run away. Cracks started to appear in the city wall they were standing on. The energy transmitted by the Armor that Shook Mountains started to flow out of the cracks. It was like how the pool of fire in hell started to gobble up lives.
Ouyang Lishang had said that the Armor that Shook Mountains was the natural enemy of city walls in this world. No dull force could cause harm to the Armor that Shook Mountains. This was the significance behind "Shook Mountains".
Less than one hour after Lu Shu and the others arrived at Liujian Pass, the famous Liujian Pass was destroyed.
They had not simply broken through. Everywhere the Imperial Dragon Soldiers went, nothing was left behind other than a pile of remains.
No wonder the old King of Gods had given the Armor that Shook Mountains to Duanmu Huangqi, who was in charge of attacking cities and seizing territories. Furthermore, Duanmu Huangqi was always able to lead his men and attack the enemy campsite from behind using the Armor that Shook Mountains. Back then, the old King of Gods did not have many capable soldiers and Duanmu Huangqi was only a Rank One.
Lu Shu looked at Liujian Pass, which has been easily destroyed. He praised them."Magnificent!"
Li Heitan and the others stood by the side with nothing to do. They could only watch as Zhang Weiyu and the rest peacefully withdrew after their spectacular feat. They had promised to attack cities and seize territories together, but only 50 people had destroyed the city just like that.
But Li Heitan and the rest knew hat Lu Shu still had a few dozen sets of the Armor that Shook Mountains. This was the reason the rest of the people in the Imperial Dragon Soldiers worked hard. They all knew that the next person who advanced to Rank One would be the next person to don the Armor that Shook Mountains.
Thus, although they looked like they were not doing anything, they were actually training in secret. They were saving their strength.
After the Wei Wu Army was formed, they had never properly trained. They immediately started to carry boulders. Compared to those days, training while standing was like child's play. There was probably no other army in the Luniverse that dared to go through such hellish risks to train.
With the average strength of the Imperial Dragon Soldiers, any of them would be able to become a commander in another army.
Lu Shu looked at Li Heitan's jealous gaze. He smiled."Do you know why you are still not able to wear the Armor that Shook Mountains?"
Li Heitan thought about it for a while. Then, he said, "Probably because I didn't eat the mutton."
Lu Shu was speechless.
