Chapter 2040 - 2033: Jin Kela Truly Knows How to Perform
"So many Zerg beasts, let’s not waste them!" Zhang Menglong observed the vast army. If they were all slain, how many supreme crystals would drop? These Zerg beasts were performers he himself found, and now that the act was almost over, it was time for him to reap the harvest.
News had just come in that the last three gates were breached by the Zerg beast horde, and a large number of Zerg had charged into the city causing destruction. The royal tribes were powerless against them. Soon, Zhang Menglong estimated, the guardian beast Ice Wing Dragon Bat would emerge to clean up the aftermath; after all, it couldn’t just sit by and watch the Ice Demon Race be ruined by the Zerg beasts, could it?
Among Zhang Menglong’s many underlings, the most formidable was Lucas. He had already transformed into battle mode, his body several sizes larger than usual, fully covered in a soft ice armor, exuding an overwhelming sense of power.
Armed with a supreme weapon, he wreaked havoc upon the army of Zerg beasts, dispatching King Level, Royal and even Emperor Level beasts single-handedly or in swaths. Even Emperor Level beasts couldn’t withstand several of his attacks, showcasing the power of the supreme weapon.
By now, he had slain over twenty thousand Zerg beasts!
However, the drop rate in normal circumstances was dismally low. After killing these twenty thousand beasts, aside from ten million supreme coins and a few red and blue potions, they left him almost nothing!
After dispatching these thousands of beasts, his stamina also started to plummet swiftly, as did the energy and stamina among the other Ice Demon warriors. In this state, even if the Zerg beasts were performers, maintaining an evenly matched stance was no longer possible.
But at this moment, Zhang Menglong had joined the battlefield.
"Leader, you should go back! Leave this to us!"
"Sir, it’s too dangerous!"
...
In the eyes of others, Zhang Menglong’s combat ability was negligible, and he would likely be engulfed by the oncoming Zerg tide in an instant.
Bear in mind, many of them were marked with Zhang Menglong’s Soul Seal. If they died, Zhang Menglong would live on; but if Zhang Menglong died, so would they. Thus, Zhang Menglong’s life was of utmost importance to them.
"Retreat, all of you!" Zhang Menglong observed his exhausted companions and initiated the battle mode of the Ice Demon Race.
In an instant, his aura surged to a terrifying level. Though he was merely in the Dao Realm Sixth Grade, he now appeared as threatening as a Peak Royal Level beast standing before them!
The disparity between the two was beyond fathom, far more than ten thousand times the gap!
"Ordinary Ice Demons enhance their power by a hundred times in battle mode, while those with royal blood can enhance by a thousand times, but our lord can amplify his power ten thousand times... Unbelievable!"
"Indeed, is our lord’s blood a throwback? I’ve heard that a Super Warrior would emerge in the ancient Ice Demon lineage every few millennia, with power tens of thousands of times stronger in battle mode. Could our lord be such a Super Warrior?"
"Our Ice Demon Race is bound to rule soon!"
...
"Heavenly Fire Triple Mystery Change!"
"Super Saiyan Third Stage!"
"Gear Fourth!"
"Eight Gates, Death Gate, open!"
...
Layer upon layer of powerful buffs were stacked onto Zhang Menglong, making him unprecedentedly strong, a force so potent it stirred the slumbering Ice Wing Dragon Bat to wake.
"Such a massive swarm of Zerg beasts?" the Ice Wing Dragon Bat surprisingly spoke in human tongue, "If I don’t act now, this Ice Demon Race might cease to exist!"
It yawned lazily, then unfurled its gigantic ice wings and took flight. "Hmm? An interesting little Ice Demon, with the blood of ancient super Ice Demon warriors, even learned some racial enhancement techniques, truly full of potential!"
The Ice Wing Dragon Bat glanced toward where Zhang Menglong stood in the south, then dived towards the eastern city wall.
"The Ice Wing Dragon Bat is here!"
"The guardian beast is here! We’re saved!"
The Ice Demon Race, caught in dire straits, saw the massive figure in the sky and immediately became overwhelmingly excited.
With a flick of its wings, countless ice spikes descended like a meteor shower, covering a vast area, each spike nailing a Zerg beast precisely, instantly freezing them, then shattering them to pieces.
It flapped its wings again, sending two colossal tornadoes sweeping towards the Zerg horde. The tornado’s diameter left everyone in awe; even hundred-meter tall Zerg were swept skyward, the sharp ice edge slicing their bodies to shreds.
In mere minutes, a colossal vacuum zone appeared before the city wall. The Ice Wing Dragon Bat resealed the fractured city wall with ice, then charged back into the battlefield.
...
"Is this the true power of our lord?"
In the southern wall’s sky, Zhang Menglong floated like a War God, raising his arms to the heavens, "People of the Ice Demon Race, raise your hands and let me borrow your energy!"
The Ice Demon warriors hesitated for a moment, then raised their hands. Instantly, they felt an energy being drawn out, converging between Zhang Menglong’s hands, forming a blue energy ball that swelled from ten meters, to twenty meters, then to over a thousand meters...
Drawing upon the power of all the southern Ice Demon warriors, Zhang Menglong created an unprecedented energy bomb!
"Go!" Zhang Menglong hurled the energy bomb violently downward!
A blinding light erupted in front of the Zerg tide, the explosion’s range covered an area that left observers in wonder, encompassing nearly all Zerg beasts in their line of sight.
"What kind of ability is this? Terrifying... "
"How many Zerg beasts will this annihilate at once?"
"Our southern city wall, we might just hold it!"
...
The light slowly faded, and on the ground in front of the Ice King City lay a colossal crater, its extent even beyond visible sight!
Astonishingly, within this pit, a mountain of loot was piled up, an unknown accumulation of supreme coins, supreme crystals, supreme weapons...
"Our lord’s beast kills, resulting in such a bounty?" Even the Ice Demons of the Ice King’s City finally understood why Zhang Menglong had become so wealthy, his supreme crystals just exploded at will!
"All-Encompassing Heavenly Attraction!" Zhang Menglong gathered all his haul, this wealth far surpassing all he had gained along the way!
Surveying the battlefield, not a single Zerg beast was to be seen, not even any approaching from afar.
At this moment, an Ice Demon warrior suddenly shouted, "We won!"
Instantly, a chorus of cheers erupted from the southern city wall, everyone shouted for the Ice King’s City, while in the face of other three wall breaches, they had protected this side, preventing a single Zerg beast from breaching the Ice King City! All thanks to the Ice King’s City!
At this moment, their prestige even surpassed that of the other royal tribes, surpassed the City Lord’s Mansion, reaching a level on par with the guardian beast...
