Chapter 376 - 169: Divine Soldiers Descend, Worlds Connected
WHOOSH...
Over twenty Defense Towers, shrunk to the size of a single blade of grass, hid themselves around Shen Fei. After activating their full alert mode, a thought crossed his mind. He began to float!
He activated his Tower Master’s Flying Skill and flew straight toward the Immortal Palace in the sky above him.
His Divine Artifact indicated his father was inside this very Immortal Palace. He wanted to see what was really going on in this place...
Under the watchful guard of his Defense Towers, Shen Fei slowly approached the Immortal Palace.
As his view drew closer, the shadow of the structure overhead loomed ever larger. Soon, he discovered that a single brick from the massive building above was bigger than he was. This Immortal Palace-like structure, floating in mid-air, was far more magnificent and colossal than Shen Fei had imagined.
Hm?
Remaining on high alert, Shen Fei deliberately kept his distance from the other uniquely shaped creatures on their mounts. As he slowly neared the entrance to the Immortal Palace and finally got a clear view, he froze in shock.
He saw them!
He saw his father. He saw Huang Yi’s Defense Tower, and he saw Zhao Li, an Immortal Sword dancing around him as he unleashed various Immortal Techniques with a wave of his hand.
Unfortunately, their situation was nothing like he had imagined! The five of them seemed to be under siege, and it was happening right outside the entrance to the Immortal Palace. It wasn’t as he had thought—his father and the others hadn’t made it inside at all...
"Kill!"
While Shen Fei was still stunned, a creature next to him with the head of a wolf riding a flaming lion let out a furious roar and charged toward Father Shen and the others.
WHOOSH...
As Shen Fei watched, Huang Yi’s Divine Thunder Tower suddenly lit up. A bolt of lightning instantly struck the charging wolf-headed creature on the head. After the bolt blasted its fur and that of its lion mount apart, Zhao Li’s Immortal Sword flashed. The blackened heads of the wolf creature and the lion were instantly sliced off.
Then, the wolf’s head, wolf’s corpse, lion’s head, and lion’s corpse began to fall from the sky...
But what stunned Shen Fei was that when the decapitated wolf creature’s body hit the ground, a green light flashed across it, and it climbed back to its feet, full of vigor. It charged once more toward Father Shen’s group of five, who were surrounded at the entrance to the Immortal Palace...
These creatures’ Defense Power is that high?
Setting aside the wolf creature’s ability to resurrect, Shen Fei’s heart skipped a beat when he saw that a normal lightning attack from Huang Yi’s Ninth Tier Divine Thunder Tower had only managed to blast the wolf creature’s fur apart without killing it.
Although Huang Yi’s Divine Thunder Tower was only Ninth Tier and couldn’t compare to his own all-Tenth Tier Defense Towers, Shen Fei was still astonished that a Ninth Tier Divine Thunder Tower couldn’t instantly kill a single creature like that.
Back on Earth, when facing a monster tide, a normal attack from a single Eighth Tier Defense Tower could kill swathes of monsters. He never expected that in this special space, a Ninth Tier Defense Tower would do so little damage.
What in the world is going on here?
Seeing that his father and the others were still managing to hold their own despite being under siege, Shen Fei didn’t rush to act. He quickly scanned his surroundings, gathering more information.
Hm?
A few minutes later, Shen Fei was taken aback again. He saw that the bottom of the Immortal Palace-like structure floating ahead opened up, and thousands more creatures like the wolf-headed one flew out, instantly swarming Father Shen’s group of five. The five of them, who had been handling the situation smoothly just moments before, were immediately hard-pressed.
Shen Fei saw that in the face of the new wave of wolf-headed, dog-headed, and chicken-headed creatures that could quickly resurrect after being killed, his father once again deployed his Chessboard Array.
It was obvious his father was using his ultimate move...
How should I make my move?
Although he was floating on the battlefield, Shen Fei was actually buffed with the skills of several Defense Towers. Under the effects of towers providing mist, invisibility, reflection, and thermal shielding, others wouldn’t be able to spot the "invisible" Shen Fei without a specific search.
As he watched his father set up the Chessboard Array, Zhao Li’s Immortal Sword suddenly changed direction and stabbed toward the gate of the Immortal Palace behind them.
Shen Fei contemplated the right moment to strike... Although the situation was still unclear, helping his father and the other four was not up for debate...
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
On the battlefield, empowered by the Chessboard Array, Father Shen set up four massive cannon mounts and unleashed a powerful bombardment.
And as for Shen Fei, he soon found his opportunity to act...
...
"Uncle Shen!!"
"Should we use our ultimates??"
Up ahead, someone in the five-person squad, which was fighting off a siege by wolf-headed, dog-headed, chicken-headed, snake-headed, and various other strange creatures, shouted out.
After spending the better part of the day together, Father Shen, with his experience managing thousands of people, had already become the group’s leader.
Of course, Father Shen could become the five-person squad’s leader not just because of his innate management skills. More importantly, Zhao Li and Huang Yi, who knew his identity, were willing to nominate him as their captain. Zhao Li and Huang Yi were renowned for their outstanding Combat Power. Since they not only agreed but had even put forward the nomination, the other two members were naturally compliant.
Thus, Father Shen was now the one making the tactical decisions for the five-person squad.
And at this moment, seeing another wave of defenders spawn from the Immortal Palace and their own attacks being rapidly neutralized, Huang Yi, who was controlling the Defense Tower, couldn’t help but yell out.
