161 – Great Harvest
On the other side, after the nuclear explosion, 10,000 Thunder-Demon Heavy-Duty Transport Aircraft were arriving from the distance, nearly blotting out the horizon.
Bladed-troops, Gunner-troops, Artillery-troops and Shield-troops descended to the nuclear explosion site through parachutes, and began searching for the enemy.
Although according to the projections made by the Portable Fortified Stronghold’s optical computer there was a probability of 90% for the Great Warlocks in Black City to be wiped out, but the data on Great Warlocks was still too little. Moreover, the experts who had went to Black City were Turandot Subcontinent’s most peak powerhouses, and it was unknown how many life-saving trump cards they possessed. Therefore, the first thing which Yang Feng had done was to send primary battle robots to go to the site and search for the enemy as well as the spoils.
As soon as those robots arrived at the site of radiation, a variety of images were sent back to Rose Garden.
A 3D holographic projection of the radiation site was being transmitted.
What had originally been Black City had turned into a huge crater several dozen meters deep and more than a dozen kilometers wide.
Deadly silence was everywhere, with radiation fog covering everything. Everywhere, wreckage as well as crystallized objects could be seen.
Even though they were looking at the scene via the holographic projection, they still could sense the might and terror of the nuclear explosion.
Both Carolina and Cordelia were slightly frightened within, they had gained an understanding of how powerful and scary Steel City really was. Unlike Clarissa, although they were forced to obey Yang Feng, but deep down they were still entertaining thoughts of rebellion. The more powerful Steel City was, the more difficult it would be for them to rebel against Yang Feng.
<Discovered the life signal of a surviving life form!>
Suddenly, the electronic eyes of the search robots flickered red, and they sent back a message.
The nearby 200 engineering robots swiftly arrived to an open space, and then quickly began to dig underground.
After digging for 100 odd meters, they discovered a large bold head in the soil.
<The rock giant Bonardine. According to the analysis, it should have started its innate ability at the moment of the nuclear explosion. It had went underground, and luckily escaped the brunt of the explosion.
Immediately injecting it with the God Eradicating Elixir!>
A detached voice came from the holographic projection.
An engineering robot extended a drill bit, pierced it into the rock giant Bonardine’s head, before drilling a big hole in its head, and injecting it with the Liquid Nano-Robots.
The life force of the rock giant Bonardine was originally exceedingly powerful, but after the nuclear explosion, even though it had escaped the brunt of it, yet it had still sustained heavy injuries, and had lost its conscience. It was at the mercy of the engineering robots.
As soon as the Liquid Nano-Robot Elixir entered the rock giant’s body, the elixir had immediately merged with it, and had started to restore its body.
The rock giant Bonardine was an extraordinary life form comparable to dragons; therefore, Yang Feng was very happy for catching it. Once it joined Steel City, then Steel City’s strength would be increased by a large chunk.
Those engineering robots quickly dug out the rock giant out of the soil.
Even though Bonardine was lucky enough to escape the brunt of the nuclear explosion, but its arms had been crushed, its eyes had been wasted, and more than half of its bones had been broken. Just by virtue of its physical constitution could the giant prolong its existence. But if Yang Feng hadn’t treated it, then it would linger in pain for ten more days before dying.
When Carolina and the other few women saw Bonardine’s state, they couldn’t help but feel a chill inside.
Solely in terms of physical constitution, Bonardine was definitely one of the strongest level-4 extraordinary life forms. Carolina was claimed to be one of the experts closest to the Starry Sky Warlock rank, but in terms of physical constitution, she was definitely not Bonardine’s match. In Black City, Bonardine hadn’t been directly exposed to the nuclear explosion, but he still had sustained such severe injuries. If they were to change places with Bonardine, then they might have already been dead.
<Discovered a secret treasure!>
Several engineering robots swiftly moved to find a very broken white armor.
Carolina’s beautiful eyes flickered with a touch of incredulity, and she exclaimed: “Isn’t this one of the 5 great legendary White Elephant Armors of White Elephant Ivory? Grant was the one wearing it; hadn’t he escaped?”
Yang said with a faint smile: “There’s nothing strange about it. Although he had escaped, yet he hadn’t escaped far away, but had just temporarily left the scene.”
An engineering robot scanned for a while, and then said: <Legend rank secret treasure White Elephant Armor. Damage at 38.2%, can be restored. With the current resources, after being restored, its defensive strength will be 20% lower than it had been previously.>
Yang Feng’s eyes lit up, and he laughed out loud: “Ha ha, great! Immediately fix the White Elephant Armor!”
The White Elephant Armor was one of the 5 great Legend rank armors of White Elephant Ivory, as well as one of the best Legend rank armors in Turandot Subcontinent.
After being restored, even if its defensive strength would be 20% lower than what it used to be, the White Elephant Armor would still be a very formidable armor.
Even Rose Garden’s Master, Carolina, had her eyes become slightly red after seeing this Legend rank White Elephant Armor.
Carolina said solemnly: “With the White Elephant Armor here, that means that Grant had died. He was killed by your Steel City; therefore, White Elephant Ivory will never let you off.”
Yang Feng sneered: “Heh heh. After this battle, do you still think that White Elephant Ivory has the power to threaten our Steel City?”
Carolina suddenly was at a loss for words.
White Elephant Ivory also had just 4 Great Warlocks, and it had suffered heavy losses now that two of them had perished by the nuclear warheads. Under the menace from the under world’s allied forces, they wouldn’t dare to act impulsively. If the other 2 Great Warlocks were also to die, then White Elephant Ivory’s base would be in great danger and might collapse at any moment.
The engineering robots continued to sweep the battlefield, discovering broken legendary equipment.
Carolina saw the broken legendary equipment, and felt alarmed as if seeing the scenes of Turandot Subcontinent’s all powerful Great Warlocks falling.
The under world’s allied forces had invested a lot of time and resources in roping in an unknown amount of human traitors, and they had only killed 7 and heavily injured 3 Great Warlocks. But now Yang Feng had managed to kill 11 human Great Warlocks through his nuclear cleansing. Nearly half of humanity’s top powers had been eliminated, shifting the balance of top powers between the two sides.
Yang Feng looked at the statistics and his eyebrows creased slightly: “Three dragon crystals, which indicates that the three black dragons had perished. Unfortunately, their blood and other parts were all destroyed in the explosion. A single hellion core, evidently belonging to Eden; which means that the Undead Hellion Monarch Knapman, and the dark elves’ Great Matriarch Shayenna have very likely survived.”
Clarissa said worriedly: “Yang Feng, so many Warlocks from our side had died. Now the power balance between us humans and the under world’s allied forces had been overturned. What do we do now?”
Steel City was besieged by 7 great forces, including Turandot Subcontinent’s 5 Great Warlock Groups. Apart from Eyes of Justice that had just sent a single Great Warlock, the other 4 Great Warlock Groups had sent nearly half of their Great Warlocks to besiege Steel City. Now that so many Great Warlocks had died, the 5 Great Warlock Groups wouldn’t dare to rashly dispatch their own Great Warlocks; therefore, the situation had become even more perilous.
As for the under world’s allied forces, although they had also lost 5 Great Warlock rank experts, but they were composed of numerous clans, and they had more Great Warlock rank experts. The fall of 5 Great Warlock rank experts was an acceptable loss to them, and didn’t affect their overall situation.
Carolina said with some schadenfreude: “And you’re in trouble now. Apart from our Rose Garden, you’ve offended all of Turandot Subcontinent’s forces. Afterwards, it will be difficult for you to do anything in Turandot Subcontinent as no force will be willing to deal with your Steel City.”
By detonating Black City, Yang Feng had offended nearly all of Turandot Subcontinent’s forces, and had literally became an enemy of Turandot Subcontinent; it would be difficult to find a place which wasn’t hostile towards him.
Yang Feng said with a confident smile: “So what? Power is just! As long as I’m powerful enough, then I’m just and my enemies are evil to be purified and eradicated.”
Yang Feng turned towards Carolina, and said with a slight smiled: “Originally, I had planed to go to Rose Divine Pool and practice cultivation for some time, but the situation has changed so quickly that it seems that I will have to adjust my course of action. Carolina, Cordelia, Clarissa, I need the corpses of complete level-4 extraordinary life forms that you hold. Don’t tell me that you don’t have any. If you lie to me, then I’ll be very disappointed. I can promise you that you will never want to see me disappointed.”
Carolina saw Yang Feng’s radiant smile, and she felt a slight chill inside as she recalled that ruthless method of Yang Feng’s. She was silent for a moment, and then said: “I have 15 intact corpses of level-4 extraordinary life forms in my possession which were accumulated by the successive generations of Rose Garden.”
Cordelia smiled sweetly: “I have 3 intact corpses of level-4 extraordinary life forms in my possession. Of which, I have bought 1, and killed the other 2.”
Cordelia was extremely docile before Yang Feng. In reality though, she was the second strongest in Rose Garden, and if the gap in equipment was disregarded, then she was just slightly weaker than Carolina. But if considering the gap in equipment, then she’d be crushed by Carolina.
“I only have half a corpse of a Meteor Crow for research.” Clarissa blushed somewhat and said. She was one of Rose Garden’s 3 tycoons, yet she didn’t even had a single intact corpse of a level-4 extraordinary life form, clearly showing how dire her circumstances were.
