Chapter 2484 Fiery Prison City (3)
The darkening of the sky caused the earth to darken.
Many members of the Zhurong clan noticed something amiss with the sky and instinctively looked up, but they simply assumed it was ash from the volcano that was obscuring the sky.
They could not have imagined that such a massive army could cross the many natural defenses—the magma layer—and march into their homeland.
The 100,000-strong mechanical army is just the beginning.
Subsequently, three super battleships emerged from the dimensional gate.
The Dreamer leads the way, its hull is silver-white, and its spine is inlaid with twelve ring engines, like a giant blade piercing the sky.
As Zhang Yi's shadow unfolded, Lu Keran, Zhou Ke'er, and other core team members of Zhang Yi, along with the Shadow Force led by Deng Shentong and Baili Changqing, all appeared aboard the Dreamer.
On the bridge of the Dreamer, Lu Keran stood still, her short hair tied back, her profile cold and focused.
Her ten fingers flew across the keyboard, each keystroke causing millions of energy channels on the warship to surge simultaneously.
"Dreamer's combat mode fully activated! Main gun preheating, secondary gun scattering, full-frequency jamming online, and thermal shielding increased by 300%."
Her voice was as steady as a steel cable: "Ground attack protocol in effect. All aircraft cannons locked on simultaneously. Target: Zhurong outer ring residential area and patrol nodes."
The second and third warships followed closely behind, positioned on the left and right flanks respectively, like two heavily armored and sharpened halberds guarding the heavens.
The central tower module of Skysea Fortress also slowly rose from the edge of the shadow gate. The huge crystal tower was completely dark, but it slightly distorted the surrounding space—an indescribable shadow created by the entanglement of human technology and etheric civilization.
This is the outer ring of the Zhurong clan, and the local people are completely unaware of it.
They toiled under the molten light, forging rock armor, guiding the molten flow, and repairing the fire towers.
They thought the new era already belonged to them, and that after landing on the surface, six generations of humans would be nothing more than ashes to be crushed at will.
But the next second, the sky collapsed!
The first sound to be heard was the roar of the Dreamer's main gun!
The beam of pure white energy shot out from the bow of the ship, piercing through the heat wave as easily as piercing paper, and directly enveloping a high tower area in the lava city!
The immense energy, like a pillar of heaven, instantly destroyed everything within a three-kilometer radius, turning it into particles!
One second ago, the Zhurong people were enjoying a peaceful life, but in an instant, they were plunged into great terror!
Wailing cries and angry curses echoed through the city.
A large number of Zhurong warriors took up their weapons, but when they discovered that the enemy came from the sky, they had no time to fight back.
Lu Keran's second attack is imminent!
The secondary guns on the Dreamer formed a well-rounded gun group, closely following the main guns, and poured down incredibly dense beams of blazing white energy!
Like a torrential downpour, it locked onto a large number of Zhu Rong clan's superpowered warriors.
When they unleash their power, their energy surges rapidly, becoming a crimson target in the "eyes" of the intelligent system, which instantly completes its aiming.
Countless thin beams of light formed a network, covering both banks of the entire molten river.
The moment the beam of light touched the fire armor, the rock skin of the Zhurong warrior cracked with dense fissures. Then, his entire body seemed to have its support removed from the inside out, leaving only a pile of shattered fire crystals and mottled black ash!
"Puff puff!"
"Click!" "Click!"
Their anger lasted only a moment, and before they could even launch a counterattack, their bodies were completely pulverized and exploded!
This is the new Dreamer. After a complete upgrade and the energy shortage problem was solved, its destructive power has reached the level of a knight!
Attacking these unsuspecting soldiers of the Zhurong clan was as easy as a tornado destroying a parking lot.
Upon witnessing this scene, the surviving civilians of the Zhurong clan stared blankly.
Because everything happened in an instant, all 30,000-plus superpowered warriors of the Zhurong clan in this city were killed!
The deaths were so simple that the others even forgot their anger, and their fear reached its peak, turning into numbness.
"I must be... dreaming."
Some people were making sounds with their lips trembling, their bodies so stiff they couldn't move.
Zhang Yi calmly waved his arm: "Kill them all, leave no one alive!"
The battles between different races are a matter of life and death. Once the war begins, any member of the Zhurong tribe who escapes may return to seek revenge.
After all, the Uluwatu Empire was destroyed for the same reason.
The 100,000-strong mechanical army advanced at full speed.
As the heavily armored soldiers advanced, the heat valves on their backs emitted plumes of white mist, like the simultaneous breaths of a thousand horses.
The vanguard raised their arms, and the towering city wall of the Zhurong clan, a hundred meters away, was instantly riddled with bullets!
The lava retaining wall cracked like tofu under the high-frequency amplitude cutting.
They didn't even use concrete. How could the seemingly tall and thick city walls possibly withstand the bombardment of those super guns and cannons in the hands of mechanical lifeforms?
"Who are they? What are these things? They're terrifying! Why are our defenses so weak?!"
The Zhu Rong warrior screamed in terror, but before his voice could even finish, the cover behind him was breached, and a huge round hole was pierced through his chest. He died instantly!
"Where did they come from? How did they manage to find the hidden habitat of our tribe?"
Even on their deathbeds, they remained utterly perplexed. The lava rivers served as their natural barrier, blocking almost all electronic signals and acting like a chaotic maze, deterring most civilizations from venturing in.
Even within the Zhu Rong clan, only a very few high-ranking members knew how to enter and exit.
It was precisely because they were too confident in their defenses that they became so complacent and were able to be defeated at their base.
"Buzz!"
The aerial swarm took off, its silver wings unfurling, and thousands of drone-like mechanical lifeforms dispersed at high speed, each spark instantly becoming a tracking marker.
"Third Army Corps, Fifth Army Corps! Split to the left, insert in a triangular formation, and break their formation!"
Lu Keran's gaze was indifferent and cold. With a casual flick of his finger, a row of claw compartments opened in the hull of the Dreamer.
Hundreds of "Yi Metal Drones" leaped from the cabin into the molten wind, their wings fluttering slightly as they flew in unison, leaving pale blue streaks at the feet of the Zhu Rong people—these were not blades, but low-pressure trails left by the high-frequency cutting of air.
Wherever the trajectory passed, the knees of all the Zhurong people broke silently, their rock armor sank into craters, the flames subsided, and entire teams knelt in the raging wind.
"Ahhhhh!!"
Painful cries echoed across the land.
"Could it be that...they are the army of the land people?!"
Finally, someone realized something was wrong. A high-ranking officer, a Zhu Rong warrior with a supernatural ability index of 13000, shouted in panic.
War doesn't break out suddenly. Considering that just a few hours earlier, a group of elite warriors from the Zhu Rong clan had marched onto land, he naturally thought of this possibility.
