Chapter 72: The Fourth Day of the Fierce Sand Season (2) Destroying the Golden City...
The people outside were still wondering: How come the weather, which was over 40 degrees Celsius, suddenly became much cooler? Was it because the air conditioner in the pergola was turned on too high? Before they could even whisper to the people around them, they could no longer make a sound - they were already frozen.
Yu Luowei still held back, controlling the temperature so the people outside didn't freeze to death. After all, she needed them to lead the way. As for the two in the house, they had to be dealt with.
This Bobby might have been pleased with his promises and kept talking. Yu Luowei could only nod while controlling the air conditioning in the room to lower the temperature little by little.
Jin Yu, standing in the back, was also growing impatient. He wandered around the pergola and suddenly realized how much colder it had gotten inside. He'd originally been wearing a short-sleeved shirt, but now he was desperate for a coat. He was about to check if the air conditioner was malfunctioning when he noticed something was amiss outside: those people were standing there motionless.
Jin Yu's face suddenly darkened. He stopped walking towards the air conditioner and started shouting the name of the person outside. This forced Bobby to stop talking and look at Jin Yu with dissatisfaction.
In a split second, his frustration shifted, as the person outside remained silent. Arrogant Bobby, believing his men were deliberately trying to humiliate him in front of the newcomer, grew even more enraged. He pounded the table hard—the once sturdy structure couldn't withstand the blow, shattering into several pieces. He then abruptly stood up, ready to teach his men a lesson.
However, he couldn't take a step forward because Yu Luowei had frozen both of their feet. Bobby fell down in his haste to get out.
The noise attracted the attention of Jin Yu, who had already opened the door of the awning. Seeing several large ice blocks outside and the ice on Bobby and his feet, he quickly realized that it must be the little girl in front of him who was causing trouble.
Villains die because they talk too much. Yu Luowei is well aware of this truth. Although he is not a villain, he should talk less and do more. Therefore, the second thing Yu Luowei did was to close his mouth, and then freeze the mouths of Jin Yu and Bobby, so that they could not ask him questions.
Bobby finally realized that this girl wasn't a new member who really wanted to join, and immediately prepared to fight back. They had both absorbed other people's luck before, and their attributes had been improved. Therefore, Yu Luowei couldn't freeze them both when they were at full strength, which gave them an opportunity.
I don't know how they untied the ice on their hands first - after all, it was a level 7 ice magic, and even if it could be untied, it would take a lot of effort, so the two people only had time to untie the restraints on their hands and fight back.
Bobby took out several skill cards and attacked Yu Luowei with all of them. Jin Yu did not move for the time being, but Yu Luowei knew that he was trying to steal her luck value - because her mental power had already turned on the defense mode and resisted several waves of theft.
Knowing that his defense was effective against this type of theft, Yu Luowei let go and first erected an ice shield to resist Bobby's attack, and then brought about a blizzard.
Seeing the huge snowflakes in front of them, Bobby and Jin Yu were dazed for a moment. The next second, several snowflake bombs fell in front of them.
Jin Yu, who was hiding everywhere, had no way to continue stealing, and realized that he probably couldn't steal the opponent's luck value, so he changed his plan and hid like Bobby while throwing out a skill card from time to time.
Jin Yu's skill card is more insidious than Bobby's, like a hidden weapon. If it weren't for Yu Luowei's omnipresent ice shield, she might have been hit several times.
Maintaining the momentum of his Snow Bomb attack, Yu Luowei continued to use his Ice Shield to consume the two's skill cards. Gradually, the attack towards him weakened, and Yu Luowei took this opportunity to target the two and use Ice Prison.
Bobby was so focused on dodging bombs and attacks that he didn't pay attention for a moment. He was first controlled by the ice spikes, and then he was hit hard by a snowflake bomb. Bright red blood flowed out. Yu Luowei took advantage of the situation and froze all the blood in his body along his wound, sending Bobby to see God.
Jin Yu was quite fast and dodged the ice prison. He probably didn't use his full strength just now. Seeing that Bobby was dead, he took out a long knife from his bracelet and rushed towards Yu Luowei.
Before he even reached Yu Luowei, a thick fog enveloped her, obscuring her surroundings. Soon, Jin Yu appeared in the fog, and the next second, a blade shadow with lightning and thunder descended.
This knife must be level six—it left a deep crack in Yu Luowei's ice wall. Jin Yu couldn't believe the ice wall was so strong, even his most powerful weapon was useless. But he quickly realized that he couldn't defeat this man, so he might as well escape and tried to pull out the teleport card.
The person was right in front of him, how could Yu Luowei let him go? He used another Ice Prison followed by Lion Soul Flame Slash. This time Jin Yu couldn't dodge and stayed on this land.
The thick fog had not yet dissipated. Worried that the fog left by Jin Yu was poisonous, Yu Luowei first took a few detoxification pills before removing the ice wall and walking to the front of the first few human-shaped ice blocks.
Not knowing if there were the other two people on the leaderboard, Yu Luowei released the yellow-haired and red-haired people first.
Although he couldn't move inside the ice, he could still hear and see everything around him. Seeing that his two bosses were known by the woman in front of him, the two of them were frightened and stood up as soon as they came out of the ice.
Without further ado, Yu Luowei asked the two men to begin claiming the other people in the ice. Finding that they were all small fry, Yu Luowei didn't let them out, but sent them directly to see God, and then forced Huangmao and Hongmao to break into the city.
As soon as he entered the city, Yu Luowei received a prompt:
[Attention! The Lord of the Golden City is dead! Others in the city are vying for the position of Lord.]
As the Lord of North City, you are also not eligible to compete. If you succeed in the competition, you can directly merge the Golden City into North City...]
There were more hints later, but Yu Luowei didn't listen carefully. The gist was that all citizens of the Golden City could choose whether to participate in the competition. Once they did, they had to find a way to convince other competitors to acknowledge them and voluntarily give up the competition. As for how to convince others, while it wasn't explained, there were only a few options: either defeat them (or kill them) or tempt them with benefits.
As citizens of the Golden City, the yellow-haired and red-haired men had clearly heard the hint, and a flicker of ambition suddenly appeared in their eyes. However, at Yu Luowei's warning look, their eyes immediately dimmed, and they chose not to participate, instead fawning over Yu Luowei and introducing the various facilities within the city.
The layout of Golden City was far more chaotic than that of North City. With Bobby's base at its center, over a hundred other bases were scattered throughout. The City Processing Center was next to Jin Yu's base, and beyond that were the training grounds and other areas. Then there were the bases of unconscious citizens, their doors wide open, their former owners lying either on the first floor of the shelter or in the center of the base.
Due to the recent hot weather, several unconscious citizens have lost their lives. Their bodies have rapidly decomposed in the high temperature, emitting a foul odor. However, Jin Yu is now dead, and the luck points he stole have returned to their owners. However, when they will wake up depends on their physical condition.
Yellow-haired and Red-haired quickened their pace, leading Yu Luowei away from here and heading to the last location - the prison. This was where Bobby and Jin Yu had initially robbed the other innocent newcomers of their supplies.
At this time, a lot of people had gathered in front of the prison, and a melee was in progress. Huang Mao pointed at the two people in the front and told Yu Luowei that these were the other two people on the leaderboard.
The two men were still dreaming that Yu Luowei would let them go, so they were extremely respectful and attentive throughout the journey. Seeing that there were no other unknown facilities in the Golden City, Yu Luowei pretended to let them go. The two men were extremely excited and quickly ran in opposite directions, towards their own base.
Then, a huge ice blade pierced through the backs of the two men, stabbing them to death. Before dying, the yellow-haired and red-haired men still had smiles on their faces, showing that they had survived a disaster.
After dealing with these two people, Yu Luowei turned his attention to the large army that was engaged in a melee.
The main force has been divided into two distinct teams, because one is on the overall ranking list and the other is not, so there is a one-sided trend.
This was not the first time that such a thing had happened. Yu Luowei stood aside and skillfully released several ice blades towards the stronger side, hitting several people. The situation suddenly became more chaotic.
Yu Luowei would occasionally launch a few sneak attacks at the stronger side, and soon, everyone on the field was injured. The leaders also noticed something was wrong and called a halt to the fight. They reached a consensus and wanted to find the troublemaker.
Since they were all wounded, Yu Luowei stopped talking nonsense and directly used the Snowflake Bomb and Lion Soul Flame Slash, and then turned those who had luckily escaped into Shattered Ice. In less than half an hour, he had dealt with everyone.
After checking and finding no one was left out, Yu Luowei opened the prison.
Countless corpses were piled in the cell, and on the other side sat a dozen emaciated individuals. They all had Luck points below 2. Jin Yu felt that their presence was a waste of the Golden City's space, so he captured them and planned to rob them once he had stolen most of the others' Luck points.
Normally, Bobby would only give them a little food, so they had no strength left. Yu Luowei thought for a moment, left them some compressed biscuits, opened the cell door, explained the situation, and, of course, omitted his identity. Then he left.
By this time, the base of the dead had gradually disappeared. The Golden City was also slowly becoming emptier. The prisoners and those who had just awakened were self-aware and refused to compete. Therefore, Yu Luowei was faced with a choice.
