Chapter 678: Battle of the Ancient Giants
"Click!" A faint blue light flashed on the surface of the power armor, and gear-like carvings slowly rotated.
In order to facilitate the soldiers' retreat, a "temple" was installed on the largest Giant God Soldier. If they really couldn't win, they could just escape back to Green City.
"These fifty or so mechas can't be a match for so many 'Infinite Qi'. Only the high-powered electromagnetic cannons and hydrogen bombs of the aerospace carrier can suppress these guys." Lu Yuan analyzed secretly.
Soon, Colonel Lu Ying shouted, "Report to the commander-in-chief, all equipment is in good working order, please give instructions!"
"Be patient and wait and see what happens."
"yes!"
…
The ancient insect on the other side also had a serious expression: [Haha, quite interesting. It feels like a [ghost], but it’s not…]
[Why did I, Gu Chong, get so carried away this time and wade into this muddy water? 】
[Is it worth it for a few civilization points? ]
It was very upset, but for the sake of face, it had to pretend to be calm.
There are several mythical visions around him. Their intelligence is not very high and they don’t even know what they are here for... They are just instinctively making alert movements.
The other civilizations were more and more shocked. If these guys were resurrected, wouldn't they have a group of ancestors? Although the secret of "Infinite Qi" was very obscure and not much information could be found in the major ruins, some second-generation civilizations still knew a small amount of information.
One of the second-generation civilizations was called "Chi Civilization". It had a face like a beast's head with protruding fangs, a tall and majestic figure, and skin that looked like it was made of bronze.
They have a very long history. Their ancestors fled in the Fourth Era, but returned to Pangu Continent in the following eras. After acquiring technology in the Fifth Era, they fled again. This kind of civilization is very rare even in Pangu Continent.
"My king, they actually dug out... These people existed in ancient times and were the leaders of their race. They lived on blood sacrifices and were fond of killing."
"Once the blood sacrifice is lost, it will lose its consciousness and become a beast."
The leader of the Chi Civilization, wearing rhinoceros armor, had a grim expression on his face: "You mean... the blood sacrifice rules must be lifted?"
"Yes... these beings... will definitely support!"
The second generation civilization couldn't help but panic. Their ancestral heritage was powerful, but it might not be effective against these powerful beings who possessed infinite Qi.
Of course, there are still some civilizations that hold on to their luck, thinking that even if a disaster occurs, it will not fall on them for the time being.
The peaceful square began to fall into chaos, large areas of armor were damaged, and they could only stay in the square in their physical bodies. Being a mortal body was really too torturous.
All that remained was the cheers of the converts, which grew more and more fanatical.
“Crash!”
It was like the sound of broken ceramics! These hideous stone giants regained their vitality once again, and the surroundings suddenly turned scarlet! Even the sunlight was interfered with by idealism, and the world was filled with blood! There were a total of seventeen statues, each with a different appearance, and they seemed to be staring at the bright red sky in a daze.
It took them a long time to come back to their senses.
"Where is this place?" A three-headed monster, with a voice like a torn rag, asked, "Who revived me?"
He looked around, the green light in his pupils like a blazing flame.
A desire for blood surged into his mind - fortunately, he was rational and just forced himself to suppress this desire.
Another headless, naked monster with a human face on its belly said, "Who are you... and who am I?"
This voice has a hint of wildness and confusion.
Then, the headless giant cried out: "I should have died! Why did I revive again?"
His whole body was restless, the hair in his pores stood up, and the smell of blood gushed out of his pores.
At this time, the host of the Buzhou Festival spoke: [Everyone, I am the innate myth of the evil dragon clan... I have awakened you to discuss important matters. ]
The ancient race was well prepared. The array patterns on the ground glowed slightly, ready to activate protective measures at any time. The other four innate myths were also on high alert at all times.
The Evil Dragon Emperor took out a prop that looked like a crystal ball.
This thing can send "memories" and can communicate information at the fastest speed.
"It's already the Ninth Era..."
"My clan has disappeared!!" These strong men let out the howling sounds of ghosts and wolves.
When he heard that his people were wiped out, he became like a madman and kept howling.
I don’t know how much is true and how much is false.
[Everyone, your race is gone, but you are still alive. You can reproduce a new race. What is there to be sad about?] The evil dragon emperor said, [The most important thing now is to rediscover the blood sacrifice rules and restore your strength!]
[Without the blood sacrifice rules, our strength will be suppressed for a long time, and the effect of the blood sacrifice is better than nothing. ]
[If this continues, you will become crazy. ]
Suddenly, the headless giant said in a cold tone: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
"I am a madman, what does it have to do with you?"
The Evil Dragon Emperor was stunned for a moment, he did not recognize this giant. After all, their clan had lived in seclusion from the world very early.
But he still patiently explained: [No, this is just a common interest. ]
[Without the blood sacrifice rules, we are bound by our hands and feet and it is difficult for us to achieve our ambitions. ]
The headless giant was filled with murderous aura, as if he was wearing a thick layer of armor.
The next second, he actually started cursing, "You deserve to die! What a bullshit Dragon Emperor! Don't you know that the end of the blood sacrifice is a great thing? All the evils are caused by this, and you still can't forget it and want to go back to the past!"
"You deserve to die! If you revive us, the life span of the era will even be shortened! You deserve to die!!"
The headless giant's hair stood up all over his body. He went mad and attacked an ancient tribe member on a dragon boat with a monstrous evil spirit! "Puff!"
There was no suspense at all. This punch pierced through the tall ancient tribesman. A hole was torn in his huge body on the spot, and he was knocked out dozens of kilometers away. The smell of blood was spreading everywhere.
The white jade floor tiles were stained with blood, and blood fell from the sky like heavy rain.
The situation got out of control!
This scene was unexpected! The surrounding civilizations were suddenly in an uproar. They all knew that the ancient races were violent, but they never thought that they would go on a killing spree right after being resurrected. But this headless giant actually opposed the blood sacrifice, which was incredible!
Even the Evil Dragon Emperor couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
He had never expected that he would be crazy to this extent.
However, the matter was not over yet. For the owner of "Infinite Qi", the smell of blood was like a clear spring in the desert! The other sixteen people's eyes suddenly turned red, staring at the corpse, and rushed over frantically!
They have just revived and lack rationality, and are only holding on with their strong will.
The blood and energy of the ancient people are simply a great tonic, and they are like timely help in times of need.
Even the headless giant who had just attacked, the head in his belly, had trembling lips, and was vaguely moved, with reason and desire constantly entangled.
But soon, he resolutely roared, "Whatever blood sacrifice is going on, it should be destroyed!"
"There shouldn't be such a rule in the world."
"I should have died a long time ago, and you should all die too. What's the point of living on in this world?!"
He attacked again, a red light flashed, and the corpse actually started to burn!
All the blood evaporated, the flesh was burned into charcoal, and thick black smoke rose into the sky, like a crying face.
[Do you want to be an enemy of all of us? Then I have no choice but to kill you first. ]
The scales on the Evil Dragon Emperor's body stood up, and the two horns on his head were covered with light. In his hand he held a magical weapon called "Kanglong Mace".
This is a mythical item forged from the spine of the fallen innate myth "Zhulong", and it has the power to split space.
The other 16 owners of infinite Qi became increasingly frantic when they discovered that the best sacrifices were destroyed, and they wanted to start a massacre.
【Everyone, don't be impatient. We have gifts for you.】
Some other powerful innate mythical beings from other big clans confronted them secretly and at the same time handed them a can of red liquid and asked them to drink it.
After drinking the liquid, these guys regained some of their sanity.
Only the headless giant was still grinning: "You, a loach from the evil dragon clan, dare to act so presumptuously here, are you worthy?"
"You're only fit to kneel down and lick Grandpa's toes!"
"And you, haha, a bunch of chicken-stealing and dog-stealing people! Come on, fight me to your heart's content!"
He actually wanted to challenge everyone else alone!
The expressions of the people around were greatly shocked; there was a huge loophole in the ancient clan's plan!
I originally thought that the revived "Infinite Qi" would be a strong ally, but I didn't expect that a maverick would appear right at the beginning and want to kill everyone.
Lu Yuan was also a little surprised: "The ancient times were chaotic, but there were also heroes and righteous men..."
This is normal, there are such people in every era.
Especially in the first era when individual heroism prevailed, there would always be some idealists.
But a strong person can change some small things, but it has nothing to do with the overall situation...If you want to truly change the world, you need to build systems.
As it stands, the blood sacrifice rules have been greatly weakened, which is indeed a good constraint.
The surrounding civilizations also figured this out, and each of them was moved.
Internal strife broke out right at the beginning, and the dignity of the ancient race was invisibly weakened a lot.
After a while, the ancient race found out the name and origin of the headless giant and had a clear idea in their minds.
[Xing, even though you control the 'Infinite Qi', it doesn't mean I am afraid of you.] The Dragon Emperor stepped forward, holding the "Kanglong Mace" in his hand. There were things like eyes on the stick, which kept opening and closing. The vague gaze could freeze the soul.
He is a tall and strong man. As the joint leader of the five major races, he knows that this guy must be suppressed, otherwise things will be a complete failure.
"Haha, I've chopped off countless loaches like you in the past, so this one won't make a difference! Bring me the axe!" the headless giant roared.
Suddenly, the earth shook and the white jade tiles shattered. He actually took out a stone axe and a thick stone shield from the earth.
"boom!"
Without further ado, the headless giant swung the axe in his hand. This violent blow made a whistling sound, and the air shook continuously, as if it could shatter the space!
The Dragon Emperor's expression changed slightly. In theory, a simple innate myth could not compare to the owner of infinite Qi in terms of combat power.
But these strong men had just been resurrected and had not performed a blood sacrifice for a long time, so their mental state was poor, which brought an opportunity for victory.
He raised the Kanglong Mace, and the black light pierced the sky.
The Kanglong Mace suddenly grew larger, and countless eyes opened simultaneously, piercing straight into people's souls!
The weapons of both sides came into contact with each other. The axe, which was as heavy as a mountain, was only a makeshift weapon after all. It suddenly turned into red magma and shattered.
The power of a mythical weapon is extraordinary! The headless giant took a few steps back.
He immediately raised the stone shield in his hand, and in the blink of an eye, the Kanglong Mace hit the shield again!
"boom!"
Spider-web-like scratches appeared on the stone shield, and it shattered with a "whoosh" like shards of glass.
But at least this time the attack was resisted, and the two sides were separated by several kilometers, facing each other from a distance.
"This headless giant is weak and has just revived. He has no weapons. I'm afraid he is no match for us." Lu Yuan said in his heart.
On the contrary, the turtles were very calm: "Don't worry about this potential friendly force."
"If you really want to risk your life, all the innate myths are powerful! By the way, you haven't seen the [Ghost] in its prime yet, right? They can escape from the [Ghost] calmly, and they are not necessarily weaker than you."
"You greedy demon, don't be hasty. Once you make a move, those... more terrifying beings will target you."
In fact, Lu Yuan hadn't fought for a long time. He only knew that he was quite strong, but he didn't know what would happen if he really fought to the death.
On the contrary, the ancient insect was eager to try. If it was only at this level, it would be able to kill everyone in its way!
Compared to the epochal disaster, it's just a chicken feather! [I am the myth of insects, I like hard bones! ]
[You don't have a weapon that suits you, and you have no place to display your strength. How frustrating! I'll give you one!] The ancient insect shouted and spat out a black object from its mouth.
This thing looks like steel, has irregular shapes, and smells a bit.
It's called "Bug Steel".
When the ancient insect was attacked by the [Deformed Ghost], half of its body began to wither.
Later, when humans cured the disease, those harmful substances were absorbed into a certain organ of the body and formed something like stones.
In the end, humans removed the huge stone through surgery.
The ancient insect once wanted to sell this piece of insect steel contaminated by the [Deformation Ghost], but after evaluation by human scientists, it was believed that the idealistic pollution index of this thing was too high, and long-term contact would cause ordinary life to become distorted.
Even if it is made into a weapon, it will require high maintenance costs, and anything made of steel will rust.
It eventually came to nothing.
But unexpectedly, it came in handy at this moment.
The headless giant turned around, took a look at the ancient insect, and laughed: "This is indeed a good thing, insect, I owe you a favor!"
[I am the emperor of the insect race, I don't need your favor.] The ancient insect raised its horn pretentiously, causing passers-by to marvel, the emperor is still the emperor! The headless giant actually started to smelt tools on the spot! The Dragon Emperor was proud of his status, smiled coldly, and did not launch a sneak attack.
Instead, many ancient tribesmen glared at Gu Chong. You are our honored guest, how can you help the enemy? [What does my Zerg Emperor do have to do with you?] Gu Chong glared back fiercely and said in a teasing tone, [Don’t you think your emperor can’t beat the other side? If he is too incompetent, why don’t you let me be the leader!]
Lu Yuan suddenly felt that Gu Chong was very good at scolding people, and he could control others with just one sentence.
It has to be admitted that most of the "divine skills" are indeed an imitation of the ancient bloodline, and "craftsman talent" is actually a kind of bloodline supernatural power, which is as simple as eating and drinking for the innate mythology.
There are only a very small number of divine skills that are the crystallization of the entire era and possess power beyond bloodline. Those abilities have now become taboos.
A red light bloomed in the hands of the headless giant, and the insect yellow in his hands gradually took shape, an axe and a shield.
The forging technique was simply appalling, and the only supernatural power it possessed was "hardness", which also had a hint of contamination.
Yet there is a sense of returning to nature without any elaborate workmanship.
"Come again!" The headless giant came forward, with his axe pointing forward, as if to cut the world in half.
The Evil Dragon Emperor held the Kanglong Mace in his hand, emitting a string of black light. A black dragon-like light flew out and hit the axe, making a series of trembling sounds.
This was a duel between giants! The civilizations behind were horrified and quickly retreated. This was the first time that such powerful beings of this level had collided in this era. Many people had to retreat to the flying boat and watch the battle from high in the sky.
The two sides fought fiercely and the wind was strong and fierce.
[Xing] followed the Dragon Emperor, stepped on the white jade, swept the big stick, and all the suspended meteorites in the sky were swept down and exploded to the ground.
"when!"
Sparks flew between the iron axe and the dragon horn mace, wisps of aura were destroyed, and fields collapsed.
The protective carvings on the entire white jade square were fully activated and shining brightly, but even so, the huge platform was still full of potholes.
The headless giant defeated the evil dragon emperor with his brute force!
[Let's see how long you can hold on!] The Evil Dragon Emperor smiled coldly, not panicking, as he knew his opponent's fatal flaw.
As he expected, the headless giant soon began to lose his mind without the support of blood sacrifice.
This physiological reaction comes from the disaster of the era, and no matter how strong your will is, you cannot overcome it!
With a loud "bang", after a powerful collision, [Xing]'s huge body fell to the ground and began to twitch like a madman.
He tried to struggle several times, but found himself completely powerless. Both his body and soul were out of control!
"Ah!" The headless giant roared miserably, and the blood vessels on his body bulged outwards.
If he completely gave up his reason and turned mad, he would have extraordinary fighting power.
With "Infinite Qi" and the identity of an innate myth, there will be one more powerful madman in the world.
But if it is like now, if I want to retain my sanity but am unwilling to sacrifice everyone, my soul will be pulled by the underworld and will be out of control and almost paralyzed!
The Evil Dragon Emperor was not polite either. He swung his stick down, and like a meteor across the space, he smashed the opponent's legs into pieces!
