Apocalypse Gachapon

Pu!

Such sounds continued to ring. The umbrella-shaped metal objects launched by the chariots stabbed into the walls. Ye Zhongming was shocked to notice that he could feel the wall shaking. Moreover, the tremors quickly turned into intense vibrations.

“Stabbing Earthworms!”

Hong Xiang bit his teeth when he said those words.

“What do you mean?”

Ye Zhongming took a look. The attacks were proceeding orderly, and he didn’t have any orders to give. He heard Hong Xiang say a name, and he asked.

“Something that destroys the foundations of buildings.”

Hong Xiang could only explain this much. He didn’t know much about the theory behind this equipment but knew that the Posthumous People, called Stabbing Earthworms, focused on destroying the foundations of the walls.

Ye Zhongming nodded. He had never seen such a thing before but could sense it was amazing.

He knew how tough the Imperial City walls were. They were built with green stone and other materials. Even if Ye Zhongming freely attacked, there was nothing he could do.

But what about these Stabbing Earthworms? Not only did they get into the walls, but they also used some methods to break the foundations.

“It is said that three of these can destroy a stone building.”

Neal added.

Cloud Peak members were shocked when they heard this amount as those chariots had fired a few hundred of them.

“Quickly destroy them. If they continue to fire, the walls will collapse!” Little Tiger squinted and considered sending cavaliers to fight and destroy these chariots.

Everyone knew that half of the siege weapons were used. The remaining were the giant bows, which required three warriors to maneuver, and the Violent Lightning Towers, which were the next row of defenses.

The latter couldn’t fire there and were prepared for the enemies that broke the first defensive line. If the former were fired, no one knew how effective they were, but should they use all of them? Saint Light Hall had other plans that they hadn’t used. Their ranged and assault squads hadn’t moved, so if they had used too many of their resources, what if those troops had attacked?

They could only rely on the crystal cannons. Fortunately,, the energy arcs were very useful on these chariots.

“Saint Light Hall doesn’t have many of these; maybe it isn’t easy to craft.” Hong Xiang replied. He thought about it and added, “At least there weren’t many of these in the past.”

But as if they were replying to him, the second wave of Stabbing Earthworms was fired. There were fewer than in the first round, as some chariots were already destroyed.

The Heaven-Covering Barrier protected the walls. The walls were specifically built higher for better defense, so the barrier ended up covering the gates and a large portion of the walls. But it didn’t land on the ground, revealing a part of the body.

This gave Saint Light Hall a chance.

Posthumous People had to be impressed by their enemy. They had done a detailed analysis of the barrier. Be it those flames or the attacks on the foundations, it showed a clear strategy.

During the second wave, some Cloud Peak warriors tried to intercept the flying umbrella-shaped beings. Especially Guang Yao’s squad. They were from the army and were well-trained. With Cloud Peak’s ammo production and Ye Zhongming’s support, their firepower was very effective. A portion of the earthworms were intercepted.

But the remaining few still stabbed into the wall which increased the tremors.

“This thing can actually last for so long?”

A few dozen seconds later, the tremors continued, changing their expressions.

Fortunately, there wasn’t a third wave.

The gap between cannon shots wasn’t long. Especially when the first round of crystals wasn’t consumed, this gave the 500 cannons the ability to continue to attack. As the chariots got close to the wall, these attacks became stronger.

Although the chariots were destroyed, the warriors within weren’t totally wiped out. Surviving soldiers charged. Each one of them held something—a black ball. They used their agile bodies to charge at the walls.

This was definite death. They had no siege weapons so they wouldn’t be able to get on the walls. But they were still willing to die. They shouted some mottos that were similar to some religious rules.

The people on the walls naturally wouldn’t let them get close. Some Posthumous people archers and Cloud Peak warriors fired. The thousand warriors that charged from the chariots were quickly destroyed.

But a few dozen people still charged onto the walls. They still smiled even if they died.

Their deaths weren’t the end but the beginning. Due to their charge, those black balls spread a hundred meters to the wall. Some were broken, and some black liquid flowed out.

“No!”

After all, the Posthumous people were experienced in defense. Even if they were in a bad situation from those attacks, they knew that the black balls weren’t good.

The Light Feather Warriors had gotten closer. A few stronger-looking cavaliers in the front rows suddenly descended. With their allies covering, they got behind the destroyed chariots and tossed some crystals hanging on the sides of the spirit eagles onto the balls.

The moment the crystals touched the black balls, a change occurred.

Like a chemical reaction, those balls exploded, and the crystals cracked. Both sides merged and started to form large patches of… Crystals!

They grew quickly and spread toward the walls. A few seconds later, they touched the wall.

The temperature in the mountain started to decrease. The crystals didn’t stop and continued up the walls; very quickly, they were on the barrier. The energy consumption notification appeared in his mind again.

Ye Zhongming was shocked. What was this? How long had passed since the start? The barrier could only last for ten minutes. Then who would stop the Power of the Gods? Without the defense, it could destroy anyone lower than level seven!

Many people had one thought when they saw those crystals. Was the Imperial City going to fall?

They had such a thought because those crystals formed a crystal path that was slowly rising from before the walls.
