#253 - Chapter 253 Dark Clouds Cover the City and Destroy it
Zhu Yuan put down the microphone and looked up at the deep, dark night sky, a faint unease flashing between his brows.
At the same time, Li Chenqiu, who was in his room, opened his eyes, grinned, and laughed heartily.
“Hahahaha, as expected, as expected, hahahaha!”
Li Chenqiu clenched his fists, the worry in his eyes completely dissipated, replaced by undisguised, chilling killing intent.
As early as the prison assessment, when it was said that all items had to be handed over, Li Chenqiu, for the sake of safety, summoned all his Soul Soldiers and hid them in the night sky.
Before boarding the Ghost Ship, Li Chenqiu still put all the Soul Soldiers into his backpack for safety.
Before this, he didn't know if his backpack would follow the Ghost Ship to this world, nor did he know if his Soul Soldiers could be active in this world. Everything was unknown, and all hope was an unrealistic guess.
Fortunately, he guessed right this time, his “everything” had come…
The corners of Li Chenqiu's mouth curled into a bright smile: “Leave none alive, kill them all.”
The moment the words fell, a dull thud rang out again, echoing in everyone's ears.
Rumbling——
On the God Tablet Square, everyone trembled with fear. Parents hugged their children tightly, and some nervously swallowed their saliva.
“Is that thunder? It doesn't feel like it.”
“It sounds so terrifying!”
“Dad, is it the gods showing their power?”
On the high platform, Zhu Yuan narrowed his eyes, a dangerous glint flashing in them.
Zhu Le leaned over and whispered, “It's the place where we imprison the blood food. Something must have happened. I'll take some people to take a look.”
“Be careful. If anything happens…”
Zhu Yuan's voice stopped abruptly as he looked up at the sky.
Whoosh——
The wind rose, and the sky over there darkened. Dark clouds, like the gaping mouth of an abyss, devoured the moonlight.
“Aaa——”
A piercing, shrill cry suddenly rang out from the dark clouds, like thunder in spring, breaking the night's silence and tearing apart people's sweet dreams.
Specks of scarlet densely appeared in the dark clouds, coating the dark buildings with a faint blood color.
But those were not stars, but pairs of eyes, the unique eyes of Soul Soldiers.
In an instant, everyone's hearts beat violently, accompanied by the dilation of their pupils.
Horror, fear, bewilderment, helplessness…
“The Lord's order, kill them all.”
A cold voice rang out from the dark clouds.
As soon as the voice fell, those pairs of eyes trembled violently and scattered with a bang.
Like shooting stars from beyond the sky, they tore through the night, swooping down with the wind, making a howling sound almost like ghosts.
Pa!
Bang!!
Boom!!!
A nearly hundred-meter-high building collapsed, the roads that divided the Snake-Human Tribe into pieces directly caved in, and rows of low-rise villas were smashed into dust.
People who had just crawled out of their blankets didn't even have time to react before being pierced by the steel bars in the walls, their heads smashed by bricks, and their bodies were directly buried, without even having time to make a sound.
“Enemy attack! Activate the God Tablet's protection! Everyone retreat to the God Tablet Square! All entrants, exterminate the enemy!” Zhu Yuan was the first to react, shouting loudly.
Buzz!
The God Tablet trembled slightly, and water-like golden patterns spiraled upwards, converging at the top. A golden beam of light shot towards the sky, stopping at a height of a hundred meters.
A light golden, transparent罩罩罩 spread out from the top of the beam, spreading around, instantly turning into a semicircle, enveloping the entire God Tablet Square.
Bang bang bang!
One Vulture Soul Soldier after another crashed into the罩罩罩, creating ripples, scaring everyone to shrink towards the center of the square in terror.
Woo woo woo——
The shrill alarm echoed in the sky above the Snake-Human Tribe. Zhu Yuan's order was transmitted to everyone's ears through the loudspeakers all over the Snake-Human Tribe.
People who were awakened from their sleep, wrapped in blankets, ran frantically towards the God Tablet Square. Looking down from the sky, they looked like a large-scale migration of ants.
“Oh my god, what are these things!”
“Stop talking nonsense, hurry… Ah!”
“Ahhh, help, help!!!”
The shrill screams were like the cicada's chirping in summer, one after another, ringing out from all directions.
On the high platform of the God Tablet Square, everyone surrounded Zhu Yuan, looking up at the Soul Soldiers condensed from black smoke.
“What are these black things!”
“Not sure.” Zhu Yuan shook his head solemnly: “You don't need to be too afraid. These things just look scary, but their strength is not that great.”
“That's right, most of them are in the first or second realm, and the number decreases sharply above that.”
Zhu Le said, “Such a large-scale attack must be organized by someone. The owner of the voice just now should be the mastermind. The top priority is…”
Zhu Yuan raised his hand to interrupt Zhu Le and ordered, “I'll go find the mastermind. The rest of you go and clear out these monsters, giving priority to protecting the tribe's direct descendants.
Zhu Dian, you go and contact the Guardian Corps and have them come to support as quickly as possible. Decide on your own how to deploy and how to defeat the enemy efficiently; Xiao Le, you go to the underground secret house and organize Groups One, Two, and Three to meet the enemy. Remember to have them take the Regeneration Inhibitor.”
“Understood.”
“Don't worry, Big Brother!”
After receiving the orders, everyone dispersed.
Zhu Yuan lowered his eyebrows, his slightly hunched back arched slightly forward, and deep black hairs grew from under his skin, puncturing dense small holes in his clothes.
The slender neck bulged with veins, widening and lengthening at a visible speed, as were other parts of his body.
With a “tearing” sound, the clothes were directly torn apart, and Zhu Yuan was no longer restrained. In the blink of an eye, he turned into a giant gorilla over fifty meters tall.
“Roar!!!”
Bang bang bang!
Zhu Yuan let out a roar, clenched his fists, and hammered his chest. He took a big step and rushed out of the blood-colored barrier.
…
Outside, it was windy and rainy, but Li Chenqiu's side was peaceful and serene.
“The coloring is fast.”
The corners of Li Chenqiu's mouth curled up slightly as he withdrew from the palace in his mind.
Soul Soldiers were his means, and the people he killed were also considered people he killed, so they could naturally be used for coloring the murals.
At this moment, a wisp of black smoke floated in from the crack in the door, flew to Li Chenqiu, and transformed into a humanoid Soul Soldier.
“Lord!”
Dream Disaster knelt on one knee, respectfully lowering his head.
“Mm.” Li Chenqiu nodded.
Dream Disaster stood up and waved his hand. The iron cuffs that bound Li Chenqiu snapped instantly.
Li Chenqiu flexed his fingers, making “crackling” sounds.
“Let's go. There's not much time left. We need to kill them quickly.”
Li Chenqiu's eyes gradually turned cold as he got up and walked towards the door with Dream Disaster.
The ten-centimeter-thick alloy iron door was kicked flying by Dream Disaster, smashing into the end of the corridor.
“What are these iron doors for?”
Li Chenqiu looked at the closed alloy iron doors.
Dream Disaster replied, “Resurrectors.”
Li Chenqiu waved his hand indifferently and said softly, “Then kill them all!”
