Holy Lance Charge!
Another impact, although the giant gate was smashed open with a large hole, Ye Shaoheng was also shaken by the recoil and couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. He was also seriously injured.
Forward! Forward!
Ye Shaoheng kept urging the horse to pull the reins, each time with the determination to die. The talismans on his body flickered, condensed and disappeared, but he always ended in failure.
Another series of missiles pierced the air, exploding into clouds of smoke as they struck the giant gate. These missiles were clearly high-tech weapons even before the apocalypse; after just a few missiles, nearly half of the giant gate was destroyed.
Moreover, perhaps because the missile's energy was too strong, the giant gate took quite a while to digest before it began to slowly recover.
"roar!"
The giant gate grew even angrier, sprouting countless tentacles and vines from its body and indiscriminately attacking everything around it. Song Yunshan, who had just survived being hit, finally ran out of luck and was smashed into the snow by a vine.
Fortunately, snow is better than concrete. Without protective clothing, if Song Yunshan had sunk into the wall, he would probably have been turned into mincemeat.
"Song Yunshan!" Guan Nianshan was terrified and hurriedly pulled Song Yunshan out of the snow. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Song Yunshan was only seriously injured.
At least he didn't die.
Another clump of mud rushed towards them. Guan Nianshan pulled Song Yunshan behind a house and casually tossed the chess piece in his hand over.
A tiny object hurtled towards the giant gate, but the giant gate didn't even notice it. The chess piece was far too small for it to care about something smaller than an ant to it.
The next moment, the giant gate contracted violently, its size, which was initially larger than a small mountain, suddenly shrank by half.
"Wenqu?" Number Two stared in disbelief at the suddenly weathered Wenqu.
"Checkmate, checkmate..." Wenqu stared wide-eyed at the sky. If he had a human form, he would be dead with his eyes wide open in disbelief: "My chess piece... Checkmate..."
General? Isn't that something on the chessboard?
Number Two suddenly realized that the spatial chessboard was the foundation of Wenqu. Could it be that when Shiyin came out, she took away the chessboard's vital piece, the shogi, and now she has destroyed the shogi?
"Shi Yin, you're despicable!" Number Two's face turned ugly. "Aren't you supposed to be a decent person? How could you resort to such underhanded methods?"
Shi Yin, in mid-air: "...?"
What does this have to do with me?
The show is watched from above, but the trouble comes from below.
Meanwhile, the Giant Gate had already locked onto Guan Nianshan, who had thrown the chess piece. It now had only one thought: to kill this man and avenge its partner.
Song Yunshan was severely injured in one blow. After finally catching his breath, he opened his eyes and found that a huge black vine was falling from the sky and rushing towards Guan Nianshan. He subconsciously used all his strength to push Guan Nianshan away.
"No!" Guan Nianshan roared, "Stop!"
The dark tentacles paused for a moment, and in just one second, Guan Nianshan's vision went black. A long, bloody gash appeared on his back, running from his right shoulder to his left waist. Guan Nianshan's legs gave way and he collapsed to the ground.
The tentacle struck again after only a second, slamming Song Yunshan against the wall. A loud boom was heard, and the tentacle seemed afraid that Song Yunshan wasn't dead enough, so it lingered for two seconds before retracting.
"No, no!" Guan Nianshan rushed forward like a madman, but Song Yunshan was already unrecognizable and was still in the posture of pushing him.
"No, don't die, please don't die!" Guan Nianshan had never felt so panicked: "Your word is law! I don't want him to die, I want him to live! Live!"
Perhaps it was because the words of Guan Nianshan could not intervene in what had already happened, or perhaps it was because Guan Nianshan's abilities could not revive Song Yunshan even in death.
Silence fell; nothing happened.
"This is the price of the insects' resistance. You actually killed my partner, so you'll taste what it's like to have your partner killed!" the giant gate roared.
"No, don't die! Why should you die?" Guan Nianshan couldn't believe it; he felt like he was dreaming. "Why do you have everything? You still haven't told me why!"
Why are you born with everything? Why do you never encounter mud and whirlpools? Why do you have such a smooth life and yet you criticize me? Why are you never misunderstood by others?
Why does nobody love me? Why does everyone love you?
I hate you. Why does everyone else love you?
Even I love you...
"Please." Guan Nianshan hugged Song Yunshan's body, ignoring the blood all over his body: "At least you can leave peacefully, at least you can have a whole body... Don't leave like this, how am I supposed to explain this to Mom and Dad? They already hate me."
"I only have you left."
Guan Nianshan's chest was ripped open, revealing a deep wound that exposed the bone.
Song Yunshan's body, which had been whipped into a pulp, began to gradually heal, and eventually, it actually merged back together.
Quiet and clean, as peaceful as if asleep.
Guan Nianshan held Song Yunshan's cold body, buried his head in his neck, and cried.
Suddenly, the giant gate hit a wall.
Number Two looked closely and saw an old monk standing on the rooftop of a building in the city they had just conquered, the city they were about to enter.
The old monk was wearing a thin kasaya and holding a staff in his hand; he looked very venerable.
On the rooftops of the surrounding buildings stood monks of all sizes. From a high vantage point, Number Two immediately recognized what kind of formation it was, with a golden phantom floating in the air.
"Wait, is this Buddha?" Number Two exclaimed in surprise, "Is this real?!"
Before Number Two could react, the giant gate was frozen in place. Number Two and Wenqu looked down and saw that a string of talismans had been pasted under the giant gate.
In the distance, the Taoist priests, having finished affixing the talismans, turned and ran away, concealing their merits and fame. They left without stopping for even a moment.
Is this...is this real?
Number Two was starting to have an existential crisis. Was this all a scam? Or was it their wish that had manifested in their superpowers?
As the giant gate struggled, the talismans were burned one by one, but Number Two clearly sensed the unusual power within those talismans, as well as the divinity emanating from the monks.
A pale golden light enveloped the city, and the golden shield prevented the giant gate from advancing for a time.
"Not good, retreat immediately!" Even though he was unwilling, Number Two finally made up his mind: "Go back and take the message over. There were too many unexpected things this time. Humanity has mastered far too many things beyond our expectations..."
"Where do you want to run?"
A familiar voice sounded from behind, causing Number Two's expression to change drastically.
"I told you to leave?" Shi Yin stood behind the giant gate. Number Two turned around in astonishment and saw Shi Yin floating in the air, her long hair fluttering in the wind.
"Although I didn't expect humans to be so well prepared, we want to leave, can you stop us?" Number Two said coldly, "Shi Yin, based on my assessment of your strength, if you use Full Liberation, you can forget about half of the Yanlong Kingdom."
“You’re right,” Shi Yin said calmly, “but who said I had to use complete liberation?”
