Ancient Factory Connections: How I Became Rich and Raised an Emperor for the Ages

Ning Jinluo was just out of college when her uncle tricked her into inheriting a factory on the brink of bankruptcy, leaving her buried in massive debt. Her boyfriend dumped her for a rich woman, l...

Chapter 323 The support army from the parallel world has arrived!

Then several more triangular combat aircraft landed on the ground.

One after another, a group of genetically modified soldiers from the Advent Legion emerged from these aircraft.

They carried no firearms, only machetes, and relentlessly searched for any surviving Chinese soldiers before unleashing a massacre.

With a swift stroke, the blade fell... and a head rolled to the ground...

"Hahaha! Finally, this is getting interesting again!" Ning Yao observed the massacre in real time through the cameras equipped on the genetically modified soldiers in front of the holographic screen.

"Fight them!" roared a heavily wounded Chinese soldier, clutching explosives as he lunged at the genetically modified soldier.

The other soldiers around them followed suit. If one couldn't hold them down, two would step in. If two couldn't hold them down, even more would step in!

boom!

Finally, they killed a genetically modified soldier by having more than a dozen of them perish together with explosives.

Unfortunately... this situation cannot change the outcome.

"General Shangguan!" The voice of the high command from the underground city came through the headset of Shangguan Ying's tactical helmet, "Tens of millions of people inside the stronghold are begging us to let them out. They say they will fight those beasts to the death!"

Shangguan Ying's eyes were bloodshot. "No! Let alone the fact that the civilians are unarmed, even if we still have weapons, ammunition, and equipment, we are no match for the Descent Legion! Even if all the civilians come out, no matter how many there are, they will only be sent to their deaths! We must let them stay in the underground city, at least they can hold out until the Descent Legion breaks through the rock layers thousands of meters deep! You must not give up hope until the very last moment!"

After saying this, Shangguan Ying turned off the communicator.

"General Shangguan? General Shangguan!" Inside the underground city, a high-ranking official shouted into the communicator.

However, there has been no response.

Using the terrain as cover, Shangguan Ying crept up to a triangular aircraft and quietly slipped inside.

A short while later, the triangular aircraft started up, wobbling precariously.

The group of killers on the ground turned their heads and saw the aircraft crashing directly into them.

"Die, all of you!" Shangguan Ying roared in the cabin.

Boom!!!

Her aircraft crashed into the genetically modified soldiers, shoving them into pieces, before turning around and flying back into the air to unleash a barrage of fire until they were reduced to ashes.

Having lost her mind in the heat of battle, Shangguan Ying, after wiping out the group of soldiers, piloted her aircraft straight into the sky and opened fire on the numerous descending legion aircraft that were densely packed and hovering in the darkness in the distance.

The other side also realized what was happening and deployed a batch of aircraft in response.

With her exceptional talent, Shangguan Ying was more agile than the enemy in her first time piloting this advanced aircraft. She weaved through the air several times and managed to destroy more than ten aircraft of the Descent Legion.

"Huh? There are such powerful people in the Chinese army?" Ning Yao looked at the screen with an incredulous expression.

"Your Majesty, that aircraft is heading this way," the subordinate reported.

Ning Yao sneered, "Oh, so you want to take down my headquarters mothership? How overconfident! Shoot it down!"

"Yes, Heavenly Venerable."

The subordinate raised his right hand and operated the bracelet a few times.

Immediately, a laser beam thinner than a finger was emitted from a certain position on the pyramid-shaped headquarters mothership, piercing through the aircraft piloted by Shangguan Ying in the blink of an eye.

Bang!

The aircraft exploded in a burst of flames, crashed straight to the ground, and burst into a huge mushroom cloud.

“These ants are really interesting,” Ning Yao said with a slight smile, and gave a calm order. “The Chinese army has been wiped out, right? Now, dig up the ground. I’m going to destroy the ant nest.”

"Yes, sir!"

Soon, tens of thousands of triangular aircraft arrived above the underground city and began to bombard the ground in turn, blasting the ground layer by layer in the simplest and most brutal way.

Each bombardment generated tremendous shocks that penetrated thousands of meters of rock, constantly putting psychological pressure on the tens of millions of Chinese people inside the underground city.

It's like deliberately creating a death countdown for them.

Ning Jinli, who was in a deep sleep, was jolted awake.

Upon learning of Shangguan Ying's condition, she forced herself, despite her extreme weakness, to personally go to the location where Shangguan Ying had fallen.

She couldn't believe she had sacrificed herself like that.

Besides, even if she really sacrificed herself, she would bring her body back.

The higher-ups couldn't refuse, so they had no choice but to tell her the coordinates of Shangguan Ying's fall.

Ning Jinli changed into a combat suit, opened a portal to another dimension on the spot, and instantly arrived at the crash site.

This place is more than ten kilometers away from the ground defense zone above the underground city, but it has long been bombed into ruins. Looking around, apart from some broken and barren mountains that still stand, there are scorched earth and deep pits everywhere, littered with the remains of humans and weapons.

Ning Jinli turned her head to look in the direction of the stronghold more than ten kilometers away.

The densely packed combat aircraft of the Advent Legion, like a swarm of bees, hovered over the ground, bombarding in turn. The fire and smoke even formed mushroom cloud-like tornadoes.

The Advent Legion's headquarters mothership hovered a thousand meters in the air, casting a vast, boundless shadow over the earth.

Ning Jinli didn't have time to think it through and hurried to find Shangguan Ying.

Upon arriving at the legion headquarters, Ning Yao stared at the screen in front of her with great interest. The screen displayed a view of Ning Jinli from high above.

"What are you looking for, my dear cousin?" Ning Yao muttered with a cold laugh.

More than ten minutes later, Ning Yao saw on the screen that Ning Jinli had found the unconscious Shangguan Ying a few hundred meters away from where she had appeared.

"Oh, so you're looking for her," Ning Yao's eyes flashed with a sinister glint. "It seems she's very important to you. In that case, I'll send you both to the Western Paradise."

Ning Yao didn't rush to make a move.

She wanted Ning Jinli to experience despair before she died.

Just like before, when the last remaining Chinese soldiers were given a chance to catch their breath or even think they had seen hope, they were then subjected to the most desperate destruction.

"Sister Ying! Sister Ying!" Ning Jinli held Shangguan Ying, who was covered in blood, and called out to her while injecting some internal energy into her to keep her alive.

Shangguan Ying slightly lifted her eyelids, wanting to say something but lacking the strength to speak.

When Ning Jinli saw that she was still alive, tears instantly streamed down her face. "Sister Ying! I'll take you back! You must hold on!"

Just as Ning Jinli was about to carry Shangguan Ying on her back, Ning Yao personally pressed a weapon firing button.

A beam of energy pierced through the clouds, striking Ning Jinli's location directly.

Ning Jinli was bent over and completely unaware of this.

Shangguan Ying suddenly mustered her last bit of strength and grabbed Ning Jinli's arm, rolling to the side.

boom!

As soon as the two rolled away, a large hole was blasted out of their original spot.

Ning Jinli could tell from Shangguan Ying's eyes that the other party hoped she would stop taking risks for her.

But Ning Jinli refused to give up and insisted on taking Shangguan Ying with her.

Ning Yao watched this scene on the screen, sneering repeatedly. She deliberately waited until Ning Jinli staggered and carried the person on her back before pressing the launch button again.

call out--

Another energy blast came crashing down.

Ning Jinli dodged awkwardly, almost falling over.

Ning Yao laughed heartily as she watched, continuing to toy with Ning Jinli like a cat playing with a mouse.

As Ning Jinli carried Shangguan Ying closer and closer to the teleportation gate, Ning Yao's eyes turned ferocious and ruthless. She turned the energy cannon to its maximum, intending to blast the two of them into ashes the moment Ning Jinli reached the teleportation gate.

"Sister Ying...almost...almost there..." Ning Jinli was barely holding on with all her willpower.

If her internal energy and physical strength weren't completely depleted, she could have opened a teleportation portal in front of her and taken Shangguan Ying back, but now she simply couldn't do that.

Ten meters, nine meters, eight meters...

Ning Jinli bit her lip until it bled, carrying the dying Shangguan Ying on her back, and dragged herself toward the portal she had opened before coming here. Two long trails were left on the pile of ashes on the ground.

We're almost there, less than half a meter left.

Just then, a beam of energy cannon, five meters thick, tore through the thick clouds and descended from the sky!

This beam of energy is as powerful as a nuclear bomb.

If the attack hits, Ning Jinli and Shangguan Ying will not even be left with ashes.

Ning Jinli sensed the deadly danger in a split second, but she was already powerless to do anything about it.

boom!

In an instant, a tremendous sound of energy colliding rang out.

Ning Jinli thought she was going to die, but to her surprise, the terrifying energy cannon beam was destroyed in mid-air by another energy beam.

The shockwave slammed her hard to the ground.

Although she was pressed so hard that she coughed up blood, at least her life was saved.

"What...what's going on?"

Ning Jinli hurriedly turned her head to look at the sky.

At the same time, Ning Yao was also taken aback and roared, "Who is firing the cannons indiscriminately! Find out who it is and execute them!"

“Heavens…Heavenly Venerable, it’s not one of ours,” the subordinate beside him pointed to the other side of the glass window, “The energy cannon came from over there, it seems like other flying machines have appeared!”

"What?!" Ning Yao looked over immediately.

Almost simultaneously, above the underground city of Huaxia's last stronghold, the thousands of meters thick rock layers were forcibly broken through by the descending legion.

Several huge cracks, tens of meters wide, appeared on the dome of the underground city.

Pebbles fell down in a rustling sound.

The sunlight from outside also shone in.

"What is that... what is that?" Someone looked up at the crack in the dome with a look of surprise.

More and more people looked up and stared in astonishment.

Senior members of the Huaxia team and members of the repair team all came to the outside of the laboratory.

Upon witnessing the scene unfolding in the sky, the scientists on the team trembled and shouted, "It's a success...it's a success! Civilizations from other worlds have received the distress signal and are coming to our aid!!!"

In the churning sky, huge spacetime rifts appeared one after another, and strange-looking flying machines kept flying out from them.

The one that just blocked Ning Yao's energy cannon was one of the first massive flying warships to appear.

On that giant ship, which was a thousand meters long, was a totem depicting Ning Jinli's appearance!

Ning Jinli held Shangguan Ying in her arms, watching the spacetime rifts flashing in the sky and the various aircraft flying out from them one after another, and tears streamed down her face.

Countless aircraft of all sizes immediately launched an attack on the descending legion's aerial army.

The tens of thousands of combat aircraft of the Descending Legion were caught off guard and their formation was disrupted, forcing them to retreat from the skies above the dungeon.

Inside the underground city, tens of millions of Chinese survivors looked up as the aircraft of reinforcements from various parallel worlds flew by, and everyone was in tears.

"Where did all these random things come from?!" Ning Yao was furious when she saw her descending legion caught off guard, with countless triangular flying machines falling like kites with broken strings.

His subordinates, sweating profusely, said that the original world could not possibly possess such a level of military technology, and that the country must have come from another world. However, they did not know why the country would come to help the original world's China.

Ning Yao, having accumulated a wealth of combat experience over the past century, immediately calmed herself and issued orders, quickly restoring the formation of the Descent Legion's air combat force.

She then ordered the deployment of more air combat troops, and the surrendered legions on the ground to launch a simultaneous attack, in addition to the deployment of the landing legions to the ground.

Furthermore, she specifically ordered the genetically modified soldiers of the Marine Corps to capture Ning Jinli alive and hand her over to her, because she had to kill this person with her own hands.

Soon, in the sky, the support army from the parallel world and the flying combat army of the descending legion engaged in a large-scale battle.

On the ground, the surrendered legions surged like a tide toward the dome-shaped cracks in the underground city.

Inside the dungeon, all the Chinese survivors, regardless of their past identities, grabbed whatever they could find as weapons and fearlessly charged toward the traitors of this world.

"I knew it... Jinli, you... you... you will definitely... you will succeed..." Shangguan Ying's voice was weak, and she moved her pale lips slightly.

"Let's go!" Ning Jinli gritted her teeth and stood up again, carrying Shangguan Ying on her back.

Half a meter, only half a meter left.

Ning Jinli took a step with her right foot, which felt as heavy as a million pounds, and was about to walk into the teleportation portal.

Whoosh!

A whooshing sound suddenly rang out.

Ning Jinli, who was carrying Shangguan Ying on her back, was thrown four or five meters away. Then the two of them rolled down the large slope next to them, tumbling all the way to the bottom of the slope more than a hundred meters away before stopping.

Fortunately, the area was covered with a thick layer of battlefield ash, especially at the bottom of the slope, where the ash was layered on top of each other and more than a meter deep, which actually served as a cushion for the two of them.

"Sister Ying!" Ning Jinli, without even checking her own condition, hurriedly grabbed Shangguan Ying's arm.

Shangguan Ying was completely unconscious and seemed to have stopped breathing.

Ning Jinli looked up at the slope and saw several genetically modified soldiers of the Descent Legion, each over two meters tall, rushing towards her.

These soldiers, despite possessing powerful and deadly weapons, did not kill her.

She quickly realized that they wanted to capture her alive.

Ning Jinli quickly surveyed her surroundings, then glanced at the time portal that was now out of reach, and immediately grabbed Shangguan Ying and struggled to climb towards the nearest cave.

The thick layer of ash slowed down the advance of the descending legion soldiers, giving Ning Jinli more time.

Finally, she scrambled into the narrow cave, which was half-buried in ashes. She then used her last bit of strength to smash the entrance of the cave with brute force. In the darkness, she dragged the still-unknown Shangguan Ying all the way until she was completely exhausted. Then, everything went black and she fainted.
