My Apocalypse Territory-Chapter 453 - 421: Move Aside, I’m Going to Pretend—

Human transcendent beings appeared to support, and although Baili Ba did not make another move except for the "Nine-layered Shock Force" strike, the morale of the human soldiers was greatly boosted.

All around were cries and sounds of fighting.

But morale was ultimately intangible; other Awakener armies coming to assist, without the speed of the transcendent and lacking convenient vehicles like the Floating Chariots, were still on their way.

The Awakeners stationed at the fortress were dying in increasing numbers, and the pressure on the defense lines was mounting.

Several catastrophe-level demonized beasts were also probing nearby.

A couple of kilometers away, two transcendent beings from the Evil Dragon Clan hovered in the air, looking down coldly.

It seemed humans could no longer hold on.

Atop Dragon Pan Fortress, the exaggeratedly shaped fortress cannon’s muzzle flickered with countless Thunder Arcs as Source Qi particles swarmed into the muzzle, forming a visibly swirling Source Qi Tide Vortex.

Space itself was distorted.

Behind the fortress cannon, mountains of Source Crystals were drained, and even the Source Qi surrounding the fortress was depleted.

Whether it was human ability users or demonized beasts with special abilities, the power of their big moves released at this moment was greatly weakened.

Many people lifted their heads as if sensing something.

A blazing white column of light burst forth instantly.

Time seemed to freeze at that moment.

Some people gaped, some clashed weapons with demonized beasts, others raised heavy machine guns firing halfway, the piercing light forcing everyone looking directly at it to shut their eyes.

A silent blast.

The column of light shot from the fortress cannon pierced through the land and rivers.

Everything was blanketed in white.

Perhaps a long time passed, or maybe just an instant, but the white glow in everyone’s vision gradually faded.

In front of Dragon Pan Fortress, at the very center, a vast gorge over a hundred meters wide appeared on the ground; the demonized beasts were vaporized, leaving a large empty swath extending for several kilometers.

The "Hive" was too far to be reached by the fortress cannon, but among the five catastrophe-level demonized beasts, three were engulfed by the immense column of light and completely obliterated.

This one shot had killed hundreds of thousands of enemies!

One-third of the catastrophe-level demonized beasts were gone!

In the distant sky, two small black dots urgently increased their distance, only lowering their altitude once they saw the particles from the column dissipating and confirmed the range was insufficient.

Baili Ba also walked out of the room with a look of astonishment.

...

Time resumed its flow.

Demonized beasts continued to charge the walls, but now they were sparse; the large empty space could not be quickly filled even as the continuous Demon Tide surged forward from beh...

The remaining two catastrophe-level demonized beasts, possessing some intelligence, dared not stay within range of the fortress cannon and fled into the distance.

The alien transcendent beings couldn’t be called back.

Above the fortress cannon began to regather energy, specks of light converging towards the muzzle, and behind the fortress cannon, hundreds of Awakeners hurriedly replenished the Source Crystals, continuously pouring in cartloads of crystals.

But regathering energy would take a few minutes.

The distant alien transcendent, as expected, flapping their wings with full speed enhanced by force fields, rapidly approached Dragon Pan Fortress.

Five kilometers.

Four kilometers.

...

One kilometer.

...

Eight hundred meters!

...

Five hundred meters!

...

In an instant, an imposing presence bore down. freewēbnoveℓ.com

The two transcendent beings from the Evil Dragon Clan immediately focused on Baili Ba, recognizing him as a human transcendent, one of them flew towards Baili Ba while the other, preparing a big move, aimed to directly destroy the fortress cannon.

Inside the command room, alarms sounded incessantly, the detection devices from Beiting, their shrill noises almost piercing the eardrum.

Other defensive weapons of Dragon Pan Fortress had opened fire, forming a dense net aimed at the alien transcendent.

Several ordinary Energy-gathering Cannons, having already charged up to full power, fired beams of light, but there were too few of them and their coverage was not wide enough, agilely avoided by the airborne Spirit-enhanced alien transcendent.

However, attacks from other weapons were withstood by the alien transcendent.

This could indeed cause some trouble.

Their speed slowed down.

Another Transcendent from the Evil Dragon Clan, having no choice, preemptively blasted away a regular Energy-gathering Cannon.

Baili Ba had already engaged the enemy.

Energy leaked into the midair, the explosive sounds painfully reverberating in the soldiers’ eardrums below.

Meng Jingran also flew up to the sky, attempting to prevent another Transcendent from the Evil Dragon Clan from causing destruction.

Four orbs of light, two battlefields, intertwined in the air.

...

Below.

Dai Mubai frequently looked towards the sky, then back at Tang Yu.

"Just wait a bit longer, just wait a bit longer, the hidden Transcendent from the Alien Race hasn’t shown up yet..."

Behind Tang Yu, fifteen Hexagonal Crystals formed a circle around him, a blue-purple beam of light shooting out from the first crystal, continuously connecting the others to increase its power.

Massive energy dissipated.

At any other time, such highly concentrated energy would easily be detected by others.

However, at this moment, both Transcendents from the Evil Dragon Clan were tied up, and the Fortress Cannon above was continuously accumulating energy, making the Source Qi particles in this area extremely agitated.

Providing the perfect cover.

The war among the Transcendents was, for the time being, indecisive; Meng Jingran held one Transcendent at bay, desperately keeping a distance from the city wall to prevent the soldiers below from being affected.

Baili Ba... wearing silver armor, this dominant figure was now forced to retreat step by step. His famous technique, "Nine-layered Shock Force," even though it penetrated the enemy’s force field, the remaining power had slammed onto the body of the Evil Dragon Clan’s Transcendent, unable even to break a few scales.

Instead, he was constantly dodging the opponent’s attacks, being beaten badly.

Even entangling the enemy proved difficult.

Simply trash, Yan Dingtian wasn’t this bad!

Tang Yu wasn’t in a hurry, but the Transcendents in the air were becoming impatient.

They feared the Fortress Cannon would fully charge and continuously roared, emitting unintelligible sounds.

No...

Tang Yu furrowed his brows. Although he didn’t understand, he had heard a few of the words before among members of the Ghost Hand Clan; some sounded familiar.

It was probably the language of the Alien Race.

Likely even the common tongue!

As the roars ceased, from a distance, the Demon Tide suddenly spurred three figures to shoot into the sky.

Humanoid, nearly three meters tall, their skin somewhat pale, a pair of massive blood-colored wings spread from their backs, flying rapidly toward the fortress.

"It’s the Blood Wing Clan!" Dai Mubai quickly said.

Sensing their presence, Tang Yu was certain:

"Nancy, you handle the Transcendent Meng Jingran is entangling, quickly."

In an instant, Nancy entered battle mode, her aura erupted, shooting into the skies, a dark purple Ghost Slash descended, catching the Evil Dragon Clan’s Transcendent off guard.

Meng Jingran was already prepared, desperately entangling the enemy.

In just a moment, Nancy’s series of combat skills landed on the Alien Race’s Transcendent... merely a common Transcendent, unable to withstand the assault, his force field shattered, scales slashed open, revealing masses of flesh and bone, his aura rapidly weakening.

The other Transcendent from the Evil Dragon Clan was startled.

Caught between rescuing his kin and a strategic retreat, he hesitated for a moment.

Around him, one after another, bizarre ice flowers bloomed.

The Transcendent from the Evil Dragon Clan felt a bone-chilling cold, his movements suddenly slowed, a layer of white frost covered his body, quickly turning into a thick layer of ice.

He roared.

His eyes blood red, wings fiercely flapping.

The ice layer cracked, numerous fissures appearing.

Baili Ba, not specifically targeted, was also affected by this chill, his thoughts slowing, his body chilling to the bone.

He was somewhat confused, completely unaware of what had happened.

Suddenly, he heard a loud shout from below.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that young man he had seen at the command center, stepping on the city wall and soaring into the sky.

The purple ring of light behind him dazzlingly bright.

"Everybody move!!!"
