Infinite Bloodcore-Chapter 420: Section 208: Devoted to Long Fu

Chapter 420: Section 208: Devoted to Long Fu

Hong Zhu wanted to cry but had no tears.

She had revealed herself to help Cang Xu fight against Ya Ma and Yue Ban, hoping to secure a big client.

Never had she imagined that the other party would turn out to be an Undead Mage!

At the moment Cang Xu revealed his identity, Hong Zhu was completely numb.

“I’m in trouble.”

“Big trouble!”

“It doesn’t matter if they are dead or alive, I’ll still be investigated.”

“Colluding with an Undead Mage?”

“By the gods, I’m being framed!!”

“No, I have to hide!”

Hong Zhu was filled with regret.

Had she known this would happen, she would never have helped Cang Xu.

After this auction, she should have been able to raise enough funds for her next adventure.

But now, her adventure was on hold, and she had to lay low first.

“Don’t go!”

“Stop!!”

Menshi bellowed loudly.

He took his short legs in stride and rushed on the ground, trying to catch up to Cang Xu and Qing Xin.

This Silver Level Dwarf had disembarked to find an opportunity to help the Dragon-man youth and the others, to repay a debt of gratitude.

Instead, he had not only missed the chance to repay them but had also witnessed Cang Xu’s self-disclosure.

He was stunned at the time.

Seeing Cang Xu flying toward the Iron Lump, he felt as if struck by an electric shock.

Because his kinsmen were still on that demon energy ship!

Menshi was extremely anxious, wanting to save his people from the hands of the Undead Mage.

But he was not very fast. After chasing all the way to the seaside, he could only watch helplessly as Cang Xu and Qing Xin landed on the Iron Lump.

The Iron Lump harbored Alchemy Puppets, all under Cang Xu’s control.

The people on the ship were now aware of Cang Xu’s true identity.

But Qing Xin was quick to reassure the golden-haired mother and child, telling them: although Cang Xu is an Undead Mage, he was still trustworthy.

The Dwarves were restless and uneasy.

Cang Xu hastily insisted: he would not harm them.

His assurances had limited effect.

Some of the Dwarves were getting restless.

Cang Xu immediately turned stern, threatening in a cold voice, “Dwarves, look at your loved ones, your elderly parents, your young children.”

“I hope you won’t act rashly.”

“Killing you all would be an extremely easy task for me!”

The Silver Level aura emanating from Cang Xu was “genuine,” and the many ghosts rising from the deck only added to his menace.

The Dwarves, threatened, were indignant and glared at Cang Xu, their necks turning red with anger.

But in the end, they did not do anything rash.

Cang Xu heaved a sigh of relief, manipulated the Alchemy Puppets, and herded the Dwarves into the ship’s cabin.

After completing these tasks, he immediately controlled the demon energy ship to sail away from Twin Eyes Island.

“What? Order us to retreat?” Yan Ding and others received the Naga Priest’s orders.

As someone personally involved in the Devil’s Coin incident, Yan Ding was one of the principals.

New novel 𝓬hapters are published on ƒreewebɳovel.com.

The repeated changes of the Golden Shiny had made Yan Ding guess the influence of the Gold Coin on Hun Tong.

To retreat in such a favorable situation?

Yan Ding was utterly perplexed.

“Boss, make a decision!” Yan Ding communicated through his earpiece.

The earpiece was currently fighting Song Shou.

The bombardment from Golden Shiny had affected him as well.

Song Shou, hit by several Bombs, was however unharmed.

Compared to the main turret, the light net Bombing posed a low threat to Golden Level individuals.

But with their trump card becoming the enemy’s pawn, Song Shou’s spirit to fight plummeted, now mainly focusing on defense and evasion.

The earpiece glanced up at the Golden Shiny.

In the high sky, Yan Ding was stirring up black fog, single-handedly attacking the Golden Shiny.

On board the Golden Shiny, the Fishman Clan Leader and Hun Tong’s Alchemy Avatar were actively defending.

Both sides were at a stalemate.

Suddenly, Yan Ding collapsed like smoke after being hit by the Clan Leader’s Combat Skill.

“It’s fake!”

“Where is the real body?”

Yan Ding’s feint, in the next moment, the smoke on the dock condensed into human form.

This was the true form of Yan Ding.

“Song Shou!” Yan Ding shouted, “We need to join forces.”

“The Golden Shiny must not fall into enemy’s hands.”

“Otherwise, in the vast ocean, not even I could escape.”

“If Hun Tong dies in battle, we’ll split the Golden Shiny between us!”

With a sigh, Song Shou immediately responded, “Get me up there!”

Black fog enveloped him, lifting Song Shou into the sky.

The earpiece tried to intervene but was obstructed by Yan Ding.

He had no Flying Combat Technique.

After a few exchanges, once Song Shou had ascended to a certain height, the earpiece could only watch helplessly.

“Yan Ding, get me up there!” cried the earpiece, “You take the others and retreat!”

At a critical moment, the earpiece decided to support the Fishman Clan Leader alone, ordering the others to evacuate the island.

The Naga Priest’s orders had led him to misjudge the situation.

Under such advantageous circumstances, the Naga Priest actually issued the order to retreat.

She must have realized that the enemy had an even bigger trump card!

Eargas was unwilling to let his own people and subordinates sacrifice themselves in vain.

In this battle, the Fishmen had already sacrificed too much.

On the wharf battlefield, the corpses of the Fishmen could almost pile up into a mountain.

But Eargas was also not willing to give up such a great opportunity.

He would rather take the risk himself to see what the enemy’s trump card was!

Fin-band expressed his difficulty, “Boss, I don’t have a spell that can send you up there.”

“Then use the water cannon!” Eargas’s attitude was very firm.

Song Shou had already left, and with no opponents left, Eargas quickly rendezvoused with Fin-band and the others.

Bang.

The Vinegar Pot fired again.

The water flow, like a column, struck Eargas, forcefully propelling him into the sky.

After Cang Xu actively retreated, the Dragon-man youth and others immediately rushed to the wharf.

Hearing the sound of the cannon at this moment, they all looked up at the sky, witnessing the sight of Eargas being propelled by the water cannon, spitting blood as he went, utterly disregarding his own safety.

He was only a Fishman, not a Dragon-man. The defensive capability of fish scales was far inferior to that of dragon scales.

However, setting aside the matter of friend and foe, there was no shortage of resolute Fishmen.

“The flying demon energy ship has become the final battlefield for the Golden Level!” the Dragon-man youth exclaimed emotionally.

“That’s not a place we can meddle in,” Zong Ge said coldly.

Chi Lai then said, “As long as we find our Golden Cannon, I can fire another shot, which can inflict damage on this flagship.”

The Golden Level Alchemy Cannon required a huge amount of energy to operate.

Previously, a lot of energy had been stored through an Array.

But if Chi Lai alone were to fire the cannon, he would need to funnel all his Fighting energy into it, and the consumption would be extremely frightening.

After all, Chi Lai was only a Silver Level fighter.

Previously, the ship of the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps had been bombarded by the Vinegar Pot, and the ship sank along with the Golden Cannon into the depths.

Chi Lai, as the person involved, was very clear about this.

The Golden Cannon was not very damaged.

One only needed to retrieve it and the bombs, and it could fire again!

This was not an ordinary cannon, and the power to fire it was not gunpowder, so the dampness from falling into the water was not a restriction.

The Dragon-man youth and Zong Ge returned to the wharf precisely to salvage the cannon.

Of course, this was just the superficial reason for their action.

Their real goal was to dive after entering the Deep Sea Monster Fish and rendezvous with Zi Di to guard the rear!

The Dragon-man youth ordered, “Chi Lai, rest up with all your might, don’t go into the water. Try to recover as much Fighting energy as you can; the two of us will fetch the cannon for you.”

“Sanda, check the ships at the wharf quickly. We need a vessel that can sail.”

“We need to prepare for both options. On one hand, continue to combat the enemy, and on the other, seek out an escape route.”

The members of the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps responded resoundingly.

“Wait for me.” Just as the Dragon-man youth and Zong Ge were about to dive, Menshi ran over.

“Long Fu squad leader!” Menshi panted, a pleading look in his eyes, “Help me!”

“My people have been captured by that cursed Undead Mage.”

“Help me, I…I really have no other choice!”

Menshi was very self-aware.

He knew he couldn’t possibly catch up with the Iron Lump by swimming. In the sea, he could very likely be targeted by magic.

The opposition was not just a Silver Level Undead Mage; there was also Qing Xin.

He paced anxiously and angrily by the seaside, helpless and powerless.

He could only watch the Iron Lump growing further and further away.

But he quickly discovered that the Dragon-man youth had led the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps back to the wharf.

With Song Shou and Eargas both heading for the Golden Shiny, the wharf was deserted.

As Menshi said—he really had no other choice.

So, he could only seek help from the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps.

The latter had helped him before, which gave him a little confidence.

The Dragon-man youth and Zong Ge exchanged glances.

The Dragon-man youth looked up and sincerely exclaimed, “All of this is really too chaotic.”

Then, he patted Menshi’s shoulder, “Menshi, don’t worry too much. Since the Undead Mage didn’t slaughter your people, maybe he wants to use them as hostages. At least for now, they are safe.”

“We will help you, let’s fight side by side once again!”

Menshi was deeply moved, wanting to say some words of gratitude, but he couldn’t speak them.

He was an honest man, reserved in expressing his emotions, and not used to expressing these things.

He was just choked up, emotionally stirred.

Adversity reveals true friendship!

The Dragon-man youth’s promise to help was like sending coals in the snow to him.

“The favor has become even greater. How can such a favor ever be repaid?” A sense of distress arose in Menshi’s heart.

“But now is not the time to worry about these things; the most important thing is to rescue my people.”

“If it really comes down to it, in the future, I’ll just join the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps, sell my life to Long Fu, and repay the favor!” Menshi thought to himself.

The Dragon-man youth adjusted the plan.

He had Menshi stay by Chi Lai’s side.

And he and Zong Ge would prioritize retrieving the Golden Cannon.

After bringing it back, they would set sail together, chasing after the Iron Lump while waiting for an opportunity to attack the demon energy ship in the air.

The Vinegar Pot.

“To have us retreat?” Fin-band fell silent upon receiving the order from the Naga Priest.

If he still had the strength for another battle, Fin-band might have stayed on the battlefield, waiting for an opportunity to assist his Clan Leader and squad leader.

But he was in too poor a condition.

Fin-band’s ears were ringing; he felt dizzy and nauseated, and he had been forcing himself to control the Vinegar Pot.

In such a state, Fin-band had no choice but to follow the orders and lead the Fishmen in retreat.
