"Spiritual Shock." Faced with Lu Laoliu's sneak attack, Gu Yu's eyes instantly turned gray, and a ripple spread out. Lu Laoliu immediately felt a jolt in his head, and the next second he froze on the spot.

Unlike cultivators, Lu Laoliu was just an ordinary person, and he was completely powerless to resist the awe-inspiring power of the primordial spirit.

Gu Yu slashed at Lu Laoliu with his sword, sending Lu Laoliu flying backward.

In the instant he was flung away, Lu Laoliu gradually regained his senses. He looked at Gu Yu with some fear. Gu Yu actually possessed a primordial spirit. The biggest flaw in his source armor was his fear of the Spine Realm.

Of course, he was already somewhat resistant to the device that could intimidate the primordial spirit, but that thing required a huge amount of energy, which could be solved if there was a nuclear reactor.

"Spare me!" Lu Laoliu immediately begged for mercy. He was now depleted of energy and his combat strength was not even up to the limit, let alone facing Gu Yu, who was at the Convex Realm. He already thought Gu Yu was at the Convex Realm. "As long as you spare my life, I will listen to you. You are my master. I created all of these things. Source Armor, them, I'm even close to creating a small nuclear reactor. If you let me go, we will join forces, and you will be the savior, God."

"Uh!" Gu Yu's lips twitched upon hearing Lu Laoliu's words, but he was surprised. It was true that Lu Laoliu could build source armor. The source armor Lu Laoliu was wearing was comparable to the finished source armor of the United States. Moreover, Lu Laoliu was even close to building a small nuclear reactor. He was a talent!

It's just that this person didn't use his abilities for good. If he had used them for good and didn't harm others for his own benefit, then the Source Armor of China would probably have been mass-produced long ago. Calling Lu Laoliu a savior is really not an exaggeration. That's right!

"Are you controlling those monsters?" Gu Yu asked Lu Laoliu. Since he created these things, it was possible that he was controlling them.

Just then, several monsters suddenly rushed towards Gu Yu.

"Hmm?" Gu Yu frowned. Five Origin Soldiers immediately swept out and repelled several monsters. However, he noticed something. At this moment, a large number of monsters were rushing towards his direction. No, it should be said that all the monsters in Mo City were rushing towards his direction.

"Stop controlling these monsters immediately." Gu Yu pointed his sword at Lu Laoliu. If all the monsters in the city attacked him, he would be powerless to resist. There were too many of them, and some of them were as strong as those in the Chuan Realm. He felt that Lu Laoliu was the one attacking him.

"It wasn't me, it was him. Although I created them, they didn't obey my orders. I didn't do any of this, he did it all," Lu Laoliu hurriedly explained, obviously trying to shirk responsibility.

"How do we stop him?" Gu Yu asked, as the monsters were about to charge at them.

“Kill him, kill him, then they won’t receive orders, they won’t attack you,” Lu Laoliu said. Fang Jingru didn’t just want Gu Yu dead, he wanted him dead too. How many monsters were there? Even he himself didn’t know.

Gu Yu instantly slashed at Fang Jingru with his longsword, severing Fang Jingru's hideous head.

But the monsters that were charging towards them did not stop and continued to rush towards them, which made Gu Yu's face immediately turn angry. How dare Lu Laoliu lie to him.

"You...go...die!" Fang Jingru's head, which had already separated from his body, spoke intermittently, and then he closed his eyes.

"He gave his final order, and these guys will carry out his final order to kill us." Lu Laoliu's expression changed drastically. He didn't expect that Fang Jingru could still give orders after his head was gone. Little did he know that Fang Jingru had long hated him and Gu Yu to the bone. Otherwise, he wouldn't have continued to pester him even though he knew he couldn't kill him.

Moreover, with Fang Jingru dead, this command will become the monsters' final command. They will never stop until they kill him and Gu Yu.

Faced with the dense horde of monsters, Gu Yu suddenly unleashed a threefold increase in amplitude. The moment the monsters approached him, the five Origin Soldiers instantly self-destructed. Some of the charging monsters were killed instantly, while others were blown away. Gu Yu grabbed Lu Laoliu and ran off into the distance.

Meanwhile, the self-destructing Source Soldiers kept appearing behind him, blasting back the monsters that were chasing him.

Gu Yu dared not stop. The reason he took Lu Laoliu with him when he fled was because Lu Laoliu was still useful. The country needed his technology for manufacturing source armor.

Gu Yu was fast, but the monsters were chasing him just as fast. Feeling the presence of tens of thousands of monsters behind him, Gu Yu felt helpless.

Turning back to fight means certain death, but if he doesn't fight, these monsters will relentlessly pursue him until he dies from exhaustion.

The city guards were puzzled. The monsters they had been fighting had all run away, and not just run away, but seemed to be chasing something. Then someone saw a man carrying a mech suit, with countless monsters chasing after him.

"What's going on? Did that person do something? Or did the mecha that person was carrying do something?" someone asked, puzzled.

"I don't know! It seems like all the monsters in the city are chasing him."

The tens of thousands of city guards were stunned. Some residents of Mo City, who had been hiding and trembling as if the end of the world had come, quieted down and cautiously came out, only to witness a scene that would astonish them and be unforgettable for the rest of their lives.

"Is there any way to cancel that command?" Gu Yu asked Lu Laoliu.

"No." Old Lu looked utterly despondent. In his eyes, he and Gu Yu were already dead. "When I created them, I eliminated all means to stop them to prevent them from disobeying orders."

"Damn it." Gu Yu cursed when he heard Lu Laoliu's words. He had eliminated all means of stopping them, leaving no room for maneuver. He never expected that this day would come. He was being hunted by the monster he had created, and to make matters worse, he was being hunted by it.

Just when he was at his wit's end, his gaze suddenly fell on the city guard's vehicle-mounted missile trucks. Hundreds of vehicles and thousands of missiles were used as decorations because they were afraid of hurting the people in the city. But now it was different. As long as he lured these monsters to the wasteland, he could carry out the bombing.

"Fire at me in a moment." Thinking of this, Gu Yu suddenly shouted in the direction of the vehicle-mounted missile. He used his source energy to shout, and his shout could be heard from seven or eight miles away.

"Huh? What did he say?" The officer in charge of the vehicle-mounted missile was stunned. He seemed to hear Gu Yu tell him to fire at Gu Yu, which he found hard to believe and wondered if he had misheard.

"Sir, he said you should fire on him," a soldier said.

"Huh?" The officer was taken aback again. "You didn't hear me wrong, did you?"

"Fire behind me, they're firing!" Gu Yu shouted again when he saw the unmoved missile vehicle.

"Prepare to fire." This time, the officer did not hesitate and ordered his men.

"Yes, sir," the soldiers said in unison, and the next second they adjusted the direction of the vehicle-mounted missiles.

"What a hero!" The officer looked at Gu Yu and suddenly saluted. He seemed to understand why Gu Yu was running ahead while the monster was chasing him.

Gu Yu was luring the monsters out of the city to prevent them from harming the people inside, and then letting them fire their cannons to destroy the monsters. This was a heroic act, but if he was not careful, he would be torn to pieces by the monsters, leaving no trace of his bones.

As for why Gu Yu could get these monsters to follow him, the officer concluded it was because of the mecha Gu Yu was holding, which likely contained the monsters' leader.

Gu Yu was panting heavily. He was puzzled. It had been so long, why hadn't they fired? What were these people doing? Didn't they understand him? Little did he know, the officer had already filled in a lot of blanks in his mind.

"Sir, to eliminate the monsters, we must launch a full-scale attack, but he's too close to them. If we launch a full-scale attack, he'll be within range too," a soldier said.

"Ah! Salute to the hero, this is a true hero," the officer exclaimed, followed by a large number of soldiers saluting in Gu Yu's direction.

"What the hell? What's going on?" Gu Yu was puzzled by the soldiers' actions.

"Fire." At this moment, tears welled up in the officer's eyes. He choked out the words, knowing that once the cannons were fired, Gu Yu would also die under the fire.

Countless missiles were launched in a salvo in an instant. Seeing this, Gu Yu breathed a sigh of relief. They had finally opened fire. But the next second, he seemed to realize that he couldn't escape in such a dense barrage of fire!

Just as the missile was about to arrive, he suddenly thrust his longsword into the ground, the energy surging forth and instantly plunging it more than ten meters into the ground. He shielded the bewildered Lu Laoliu above his head, followed by five Source Soldiers.

Rumble... Rumble... Rumble... Rumble...

The deafening noise continued, the earth shook, and Gu Yu felt dizzy, which made him quickly burrow underground again.

I don't know how much time passed, but the explosions stopped. There were no monsters around, only scorched earth, the air filled with the smell of gunpowder, and one crater after another.

“The monsters are dead,” a soldier said.

"Alas! The hero is dead." The officer sighed. "Let us all pay tribute to this hero who sacrificed himself to save the entire county, and observe a moment of silence."

The atmosphere suddenly became heavy. At that moment, a hand suddenly reached out from a spot on the edge of the bombing zone, and then a dark figure and a black mech emerged from the ground.

The overwhelming bombardment left Gu Yu somewhat bewildered. Looking at the scorched earth and the numerous monsters whose bodies had vanished without a trace, he felt fortunate that he had reacted quickly and burrowed underground; otherwise, he would probably be nothing but ashes now.

Looking at the somewhat damaged mech and the unconscious Lu Laoliu, Gu Yu couldn't help but sigh, "This mech is a good thing!" If he hadn't shielded Lu Laoliu with the mech, he might have been in serious trouble. Those five Origin Soldiers were living examples; they were blown to bits. Of course, Gu Yu's survival was also largely due to his strong physical body.

After catching his breath, Gu Yu took out a ball of life essence. He instantly absorbed the life essence, and the rich life power allowed him to recover 80% in a short time. Even his charred skin quickly scabbed over and was completely healed.

Gu Yu took out a piece of clothing from his source space and put it on instantly. Then, carrying Lu Laoliu, he flew towards the location of the missile vehicle.

A soldier who was bowing his head in silent mourning had just raised his head when he saw Gu Yu flying towards him. He rubbed his eyes first, and then said.

"He...he..."

"We're paying tribute to the heroes! What you're doing is disrespectful to them," a soldier next to him reminded him.

“No…no, he…he…is not dead,” the soldier said, his eyes fixed on Gu Yu flying toward them.

"What nonsense are you talking about, huh?" The soldier thought he was talking nonsense. You should know that even a cultivator with the Three Cones level would be reduced to ashes under the all-round coverage of missiles. It was obvious that Gu Yu did not have the Three Cones level.

But as soon as he looked up, he saw Gu Yu flying towards him. Although it was hard to believe, it was happening right before his eyes.

"He's not dead! The hero is still alive!" he suddenly shouted excitedly. All eyes turned to the front at the same time, and they were all utterly shocked, especially the officer.

"A miracle! This is simply a miracle!" the officer exclaimed. The next second, Gu Yu was already standing in front of him, and judging from his uniform, he was clearly an officer.

"Are you in charge?" Gu Yu asked the officer, asking a token question out of politeness.

"Yes...yes, hero." The officer's voice stammered. To be honest, if everyone hadn't seen it, he would have thought that Gu Yu in front of him was a ghost.

"Oh!" Looking at the somewhat strange officer, Gu Yu frowned. For some reason, the officer and the soldiers had strange looks in their eyes, as if they were surprised to see him alive.

"Hero, my name is Li Bowen, and I am the captain of the missile squadron." The officer introduced himself respectfully, his chest puffed out. In his eyes, Gu Yu was more worthy of his respect than his superior.

"Oh!" Gu Yu nodded again. "Keep an eye on him and hand him over to the country. This man is very useful; he can manufacture finished source armor."

After Gu Yu finished speaking, he tossed Lu Laoliu to Li Bowen and then headed towards the city, leaving a group of soldiers standing there dumbfounded.

Entering the city, he saw ruins and devastation everywhere, which made Gu Yu feel as if he had returned to his previous life, to the scene of the alien invasion.

In any war, regardless of who wins or loses, it is always the ordinary people who suffer.

At this time, the city guards were helping the suffering ordinary people. Houses were destroyed and collapsed, burying many people.

Just then, a figure appeared beside Gu Yu, accompanied by a strong smell of alcohol. The figure was carrying a person in his hand, and the person looked terrified.

He had already escaped far away by plane when suddenly a person hovered in the air, blocking his way.

He intended to use the heavy machine gun on the plane to eliminate the people in front of him, but before the machine gun could be fired, the entire plane suddenly went out of control and landed steadily on the ground. Then he was captured by Zui San.

Then Zui San carried him high into the air, Zui San's speed was faster than his plane's speed, and he felt like he was suffocating.

Zui San was so thoroughly intoxicated by alcohol that wherever he went, you could smell him before you even saw him.

“They’re no longer in Mocheng,” Zui San said.

"The GZ Alliance?" Gu Yu asked. Zui San had left in a hurry, as if he was going to deal with someone. Now that he had returned, there was no sign of battle, which proved that his trip had been in vain.

“I suspect they’ve already started implementing their plan; they want to open the North Plains Snow Mountain Source Gate ahead of schedule,” Zui San said with a grave expression.

"So it really is the Northern Plains Snow Mountain Source Gate?" Gu Yu had already guessed this from Zui San's inexplicable words, and now it has been confirmed that they are going to open the Northern Plains Snow Mountain Source Gate.

"Shouldn't you be heading to the Northern Plains Snow Mountain now?" Gu Yu asked Zui San. Now that he knew, why didn't he stop him?

"Sigh! There might be a Royal Realm expert among them. Even if I went, I couldn't stop them." Zui San shrugged and then took a sip of wine. "The Source Gate isn't easy to open either. They can only barely open it by relying on that instrument and the combined efforts of many powerful individuals within the Source Gate. This process won't be quick."

"Oh!" Gu Yu nodded. Indeed, he hadn't expected the GZ Alliance to send out a royal guard.

"The most urgent task is to gather our forces and take heavy weapons," Zui San said. This was the method he had come up with. "The reinforcements haven't come yet, and I can't stop them if I go alone. I'll just be throwing my life away. With the troops of Huangbei City all here now, we can besiege them. Maybe that will work."

“Faced with an emperor, no matter how many people you have, it’s useless. Perhaps only a new type of nuclear weapon can be effective.” Gu Yu pondered. Gu Yu knew better than anyone how terrifying the power of an emperor was. In his previous life, he was an emperor, and destroying a city was an easy thing for him. No matter how many troops you had, they would just be sent to their deaths.

"Sigh!" Zui San sighed. "Those people are so unreliable."

“I can deal with the Emperor.” Gu Yu said after thinking for a while. The scene of the opening of the Source Gate in his previous life made Gu Yu feel terrified whenever he thought about it. He must not let the Source Gate of the Northern Snow Mountain be opened by the GZ Alliance. He has a wooden sword given to him by the Tree of Life. The Tree of Life said that it contains one of its attacks, which can severely injure the Emperor. Gu Yu originally planned to use it at a critical moment, but isn’t now a critical moment?

"What did you say?" Upon hearing Gu Yu's words, Zui San's drowsy eyes suddenly widened. He looked Gu Yu up and down, wondering if he had misheard.

“I do have a way to deal with an Emperor, but I can only severely injure him,” Gu Yu said, seeing the doubtful look on Zui San’s face.

"Severely injure an emperor?" Zui San was taken aback. "Relying on your Dragon Source?"

Zui San couldn't imagine how Gu Yu could severely injure a ruler; only Gu Yu's Dragon Source made it possible.

"You don't need to worry about how severely I can injure him. Since I said I could, I definitely can," Gu Yu said. Could Long Yuan severely injure a King? Of course not. Long Yuan can't even handle a General, let alone a King.
