Chapter 279: Empire
Blue Maple City.
The outer city was already in flames, large areas of buildings had been razed to the ground, and large craters caused by fierce battles were everywhere.
Even the inner city, which had been unharmed before, was now razed to the ground, and the ruins and ruins kept collapsing in the raging fire.
Thundered!
The culprits of all this are naturally the white light and thunder light who are fighting endlessly in the ruins, that is, Nicholas and the fourth master.
It turned out that the fourth master took something from the forbidden land of the Ye family, handed it to Chen Mu and sent it into the secret passage, turned around and went out of the secret passage, locking the secret passage.
It is unknown what his follow-up plans are, because as soon as he locked the secret passage, the white light that Nicholas turned into returned to Blue Maple City and locked him.
"Fourth master, I can't imagine that I haven't seen you for many years, and you have learned badly with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and you actually know how to get rid of the golden cicada, do you really think you can run away?"
Nicholas emerged from the white light, a muscular square-faced man, draped in steel armor, revealing only one face, much like a paratrooper from a science fiction movie.
If you look closely, you can see that the steel armor on this body is very weird, and it seems to grow together with Nicholas's body, which fits very well.
The fourth master narrowed his eyes and sneered: "Nicholas, of course I didn't think I could run away, because I didn't plan to get out of here alive at all.
However, I haven't seen you for so many years, and you still haven't grown up, you haven't been able to break through that bottleneck, and you have finally been transformed into this person who is not a person, a ghost or a ghost. ”
Nicholas's eyes were cold: "Hmph, it doesn't matter what it looks like, the important thing is that I have gained more power."
Okay, don't talk about these things that are not there, fourth master, I will ask you again at the end, as long as you hand over your things, I will let you live, how about it?"
The fourth master looked disdainful: "Hehe, Nicholas, you also underestimate me Zhao Si too much."
I think that the Great Commander sent four of us brothers to take advantage of the golden opportunity to cross the "Heavenly Pass" and infiltrate Middle-earth, and how many imperial elites died for this.
Later, when that incident happened, the four of us brothers had already died so that only me was left, and the task assigned to us by the Grand Commander was also abandoned with the death of the Grand Commander.
But you can kill the Grand Commander and usurp the supreme power of the Empire, but you can't extinguish the fire of revenge in my heart.
After so many years, I have already finished arranging, how can I be greedy for life and afraid of death?
So nonsense Hugh Ti, if you want something, no, if you want my life, then just come and get it!"
Swish!
Before he could finish speaking, the old man swung out countless thunderbolts, and thick electric dragons flew all over the sky, attacking Nicholas.
"Okay, good, if you want to find death, I will fulfill you!"
Nicholas also knew that persuasion was hopeless, and that thing seemed to have no hope of being achieved, but it didn't matter, the upper authorities had foreseen this outcome before this operation.
But if you can't get it, forget it, this Zhao Si's life must be taken, otherwise, including Nicholas, all the crow ghosts who came this time will have no way to live!
It's not something to come to see, that unscientific, fool knows how to run away, how can he go back and die?
Nicholas They really can't help themselves, that's right, all the crows, including the high-level leaders of Nicholas, the core feature is that they all have a heart of steel.
According to the different levels, the power of this steel heart is also different, such as Nicholas's level, among all the crow ghosts, it can be regarded as a top-notch existence.
His combat power, in the case of overload, almost exceeded the limit of the normal combat power of the Little Black Tide District, and he could really destroy a city of the size of Blue Maple City with his own strength, which can be called an absolute terrifying-level combat power.
And at least half of this power comes from the iron heart in Nicholas's chest.
Unlike ordinary human warriors, human warriors open up a second sea of qi at the heart when they break through the realm of "Heart", thus greatly improving their combat effectiveness.
Although most of the combat power of the demon clan warriors comes from the bloodline ability, there is still not much difference in this regard, and it is also at the heart to open up the second qi sea.
But Nicholas is different, the heart of his body has long been replaced by this steel heart, and naturally there is no way to open up a second qi sea.
However, this steel heart is equivalent to his second qi sea, which can be regarded as a kind of magic change, and its power is not weaker than the second qi sea of humans and demon clan warriors, and even far exceeds it in some aspects.
For example, in terms of danger, when humans and demon warriors break through the realm of "Heart", it can be said that they are nine deaths.
For ordinary crow ghosts, the technology of transforming and breeding steel hearts is relatively mature, although the mortality rate is still very high, but compared to the danger level of humans and demon warriors when they break through the realm of "Heart Mansion", it is much lower.
Of course, if you want to reach the terrifying combat power of Nicholas's level, it is naturally not so simple, it is impossible for ordinary crows and ghosts to reach this level, otherwise the ghost clan would have made a comeback and beat the whole world.
But in fact, the demon clan has finally broken through the desperate Great Wall, and they are about to go south to Middle-earth to take revenge.
As for the ghost clan, they are still firmly blocked by the "Tianguan" in the barren land of the far west, and they can't cross the "quicksand river" for half a step.
However, the predicament of the "Heavenly Pass" is similar to that of the "Great Wall of Despair", which has long lost the support of Middle-earth, and can only fight alone to resist the invasion of foreign enemies for the human race, which can be called a hard support.
This is also what Zhao Si just said, thinking that at the beginning, when the Great Commander was still alive, if they wanted to infiltrate the Middle-earth World, they had to go through a lot of hardships and spend countless manpower and material resources, and it was impossible to smuggle them on a large scale.
In recent years, with the death of the Great Commander, Nicholas's faction has held the authority of the Empire, and most of the resources of the Empire have been tilted eastward, launching various offences and infiltrations against the "Tianguan".
With the support of a large number of manpower, material resources, and financial resources, the situation of "Tianguan" has also taken a sharp turn for the worse, and it is not much better than the Arctic Guard, but it has not been breached like the Great Wall of Despair for the time being.
But a large number of imperial minions have entered Middle-earth one after another, and the Western Desert is the most, after all, it is close.
Other places are also infiltrated by them, and even in the farthest part of the East China Sea, it is said that there are many crows and ghosts operating in secret.
Zhao Si was on a secret mission assigned by the Great Commander at the time, and he had been operating in the Gyeonggi region because his target was the imperial family.
But later, the empire was in civil strife, and the commander was defeated and died, and Zhao Si, as the top henchman under the commander, mastered a core secret treasure of the empire, so he naturally got on the must-kill list and was frantically chased and killed by the crow ghost.
