Chapter 71: Soul Fireball



Captain Parnas, who was blood-thirsty, gritted his teeth and glanced at Du Yuqi and others in the distance. He suddenly felt that this group of people was indescribably disgusting. If it weren't for them, how could the people around him have died?

However, he was so stubborn that he didn't even think about it - who forced Du Yuqi and the others to be bait to lure the snake out of the hole? Now that he had exposed such a big leak, he couldn't bear it anymore and immediately thought of shirking responsibility - this guy shouted angrily:

"You cowards! I tell you, this is all because of your cowardice in hiding. If you had charged along, how could Levin and the others have died? After this is over, the reward you promised must be tripled... No, five times, otherwise, this head under my feet will be your fate."

Hearing Captain Panas being so overbearing and unreasonable, Jet was furious and wanted to step forward to argue, but Du Yuqi sighed and shook his head slightly:

"Captain, I have no problem increasing your compensation tenfold, but the premise is... are you really going to be able to take the money?"

Captain Panas's face changed when he heard Du Yuqi's words. He was about to speak when he suddenly turned around and saw a terrible black light suddenly flashing and flying towards him from the ruins in the distance. The black light hit the soldier next to him at once, and the soldier's feet were shot off the ground for more than ten meters, and then nailed to the wall next to him with a "bang".

Only then could he see clearly that this terrifying black light was actually a very sharp black spear. The spear should be made of some special alloy. There were a lot of strange textures and symbols on the spear body. He could sense that although it was a dead object, there was a lot of energy flowing inside it.

This is the special spear made by the ZERO organization. It is developed by combining alchemical technology, the experience gained from excavating mysterious underground ruins, and the ZERO organization's own strong strength. It is called the Spear of Slaughter. At this time, it is used to throw out to kill people, but it is only the most basic function. It is the main weapon chosen by Misha, the ambitious woman.

The vitality of this personal soldier was also very tenacious. After being nailed to the wall, he screamed in agony while grabbing the spear that pierced his chest with both hands, trying to pull it out. However, this action only aggravated the tearing of his wound, making him feel even more painful.

Even so, the spear body ejected several long spikes with a "clang" sound. To be more precise, it was like the ribs of a large umbrella without an umbrella cover that suddenly propped up and completely dismembered the soldier in an instant, with blood splattering everywhere.

Then, from the thin white mist in the distance, there were heavy footsteps like beating drums, and then one after another giant mechanically modified Centaurs walked out. These mechanically modified Centaurs were not unfamiliar to Du Yuqi, because he had witnessed the experimental subject of this monster - the MT-2 mechanical Centaur - during the Battle of Shatley!

What appeared at this time was the mass-produced version of the experimental subject, with the tracks removed and replaced with a four-hoofed walking mode. At the same time, a powerful machine gun was installed on the Centaur's back. This machine gun was controlled by an assassin-type rat-headed assassin, and could provide strong fire support from a distance. Once the mechanical Centaur rushed into the enemy camp, the rat-headed assassin could appear and disappear under his cover, causing a bloody storm.

After these mechanical centaurs charged at him frantically, Captain Parnas's expression suddenly changed. He was just stubborn and self-willed, but he was definitely not a fool! As soon as he saw the might of the mechanical centaurs charging, he knew that he could not resist them head-on, and he immediately blew a series of sharp whistles.

The Delos Empire was founded on military power and had extremely rich experience on the battlefield. At this time, the whistle blown by Parnas sounded like a random noise in the ears of others, but after being filtered and translated by the combat armor, it conveyed a very clear message, which was that the enemy could not be attacked head-on, and they had to disperse first to save themselves.

At the same time, before leaving, Panas suddenly pressed a button, and four bodies of the five soldiers who had been killed before suddenly moved, and then the tattered combat armor on their bodies suddenly burned fiercely, and instantly turned into four burning deep blue fireballs, with a diameter of at least two meters!

What's even more bizarre is that there is a layer of light flowing on the surface of this deep blue fireball, vaguely forming the angry and distorted facial features of a person, and it actually looks like it has life!

Then, the four big fireballs quickly rose into the sky, and then aimed at the charging mechanical centaurs and blasted down! What was even more terrifying was that the four big fireballs kept splitting as they flew down, one into two, two into four... When they finally hit the target, a series of crisp "crackling" sounds were heard, and a world of flames suddenly formed within two or three hundred square meters. Such a huge power can almost be described as a magic like a meteor shower or a chain of fireballs!

Witnessing this scene, Du Yuqi was also shocked! To be honest, he had never given a high evaluation of the imperial army's combat power. Even after fighting side by side with them in Shatley, he still felt that they were just so-so. But after witnessing the combat power of the elite Steel Bear Knights, he was really shocked... The powerful alchemical technology that condensed all the soldiers into one, the high morale of fearlessness, even after death, would become a deadly weapon!

The lethality and destructive power of that deep blue fireball was beyond Du Yuqi's imagination. Lin whispered to Du Yuqi that it was most likely a combination of the most advanced alchemical technology and extremely rare soul magic. Even if he had a powerful treasure like the Imperial Seal to protect him, he would find it quite troublesome once attacked by this soul fireball, because it was an attack on the soul level and was extremely difficult to defend against.

Because this kind of attack from the soul level involves a very mysterious and taboo area, the soul power in it will linger on the body for a long time and it is difficult to remove. Once this negative soul power accumulates too much, it will be extremely embarrassing.

It will not take your life all at once, but will torture you little by little all the time... You will be haunted by nightmares when you sleep, the chopsticks may suddenly turn into splinters and stab your throat when you eat, and the light above your head may suddenly turn into a dagger and stab your head when you practice. These endless little tricks will make people exhausted, and in the end you will either go crazy or be tortured to death!

Unless they are strong people who are also proficient in the soul field, otherwise, they will be very wary of such things. As the saying goes, one leaf can tell the whole picture, and a glimpse of a spot can tell the whole picture. Although there are many strong people in this world and the power of major organizations has expanded greatly, the authority of the country has never been challenged by anyone.

Facing the bombardment of the soul fireball, the charging mechanical centaurs fell to the ground and twitched and died, gushing out a large amount of oily liquid from their mouths, and then burned fiercely. However, at this time, a large number of mechanical centaurs appeared in the rear, charging forward one after another with their hooves raised, and the ground was shaking slightly!

After witnessing this scene, Captain Panas could only grit his teeth and utter the most vicious curses, while fleeing like a stray dog. Of course, he definitely did not run away casually, but ran towards the contact station set up by the Steel Bear Knights. At the same time, he also hated Du Yuqi and his gang, thinking that if it were not for this group of unlucky outsiders, he would not have fallen into such an embarrassing state!

Half an hour later.

Thick smoke rose up from the city of Cantwin.

Captain Parnas was still alive, but his shoulder was broken and he looked distraught. He had already arrived at the liaison station set up by the Steel Bear Knights. The four patrol teams patrolling nearby had all been summoned. Although they had deployed the "iron wall" tactics that the Steel Bear Knights were good at, and although they could rely on the defense of the liaison station to defend themselves, and although they had already sent out an emergency signal for help...

But no reinforcements arrived in time.

Because just two hours ago, a fire suddenly broke out at the Magadha landing and take-off area outside the city, and someone was causing trouble.

You know, it just so happened that the wife of the leader of the Steel Bear Knights was about to leave on the Magadha and head for the west coast. This sudden incident was like a slap in the face to the members of the Steel Bear Knights, making everyone angry, so everyone rushed over.

At this point, it seems that the sudden incident at the Magadha landing and take-off site was an obvious bait, the purpose of which was to mobilize the forces of the Steel Bear Knights in the city.

Because of this, everyone knew that this place would soon be lost, because reinforcements would not arrive for at least an hour, and at this time, this squadron that had been passed down for 137 years was about to suffer a devastating disaster!

A series of explosions were heard in the distance, followed by a shrill ray of light rising straight up. This light carried a distinct sense of coldness, and even a strong taste of farewell. Upon seeing this light, many soldiers of the Steel Bear Knights showed grief and anger on their faces, and some of them suddenly had tears in their eyes and punched the wall next to them.

A lieutenant covered in blood sat down dejectedly, gritting his teeth and saying:

"This is a signal from Major Roronoa Thea, indicating that the decapitation assault he led with thirty brothers has failed. According to the Knights' Code, I am now the highest-ranking officer, and I will take over the command! You guys should break out in different ways, and escape as many as you can. I will cover your retreat and stay behind to activate the self-destruct system of the communication station. I will not let these bastards have an easy time before I die!"
