Keyboard Immortal-Chapter 2044: Don’t Leave, My Friends

“What the hell is this? It’s too scary!”

“Everyone, hurry and run! I saw a lot of great monsters that were instantly vaporized!”

“What was wrong with those guys? Did they turn stupid? They actually flocked over to that thing?”

...

The remaining monsters were now completely mortified. They fled in all directions like pigs.

Even the soldiers in Mengte City were left dizzy from the powerful impact. The Second Empress quickly moved the troops around so those with lower cultivations could hide in the back and get some rest, while those with higher cultivations held the front line. Even though the monsters were already fleeing in all directions, they still had to make the necessary preparations just in case.

As she looked at the dazzling mushroom cloud in the sky, her expression was full of excitement.

Just how did he do all of this?

This really is a man who continues to create miracles again and again...

During the past few days, she hadn’t been able to catch her breath at all, going from one life and death situation to another. Eventually, the whole army had already been left on the brink of collapse, unable to see any hope. They were facing a million monsters, after all... Numbers and strength that terrifying were already enough to crush any crafty plot.

And yet, after Zu An appeared and delivered two massive firework explosions, the Second Empress suddenly felt that victory was no longer impossible.

Hu Qianxiao also ran over to her side excitedly and asked, “Your highness, should I lead my army out and teach those motherf*ckers a proper lesson?”

The monsters were already completely frightened. This was a good chance to beat them down further.

The Second Empress shook her head slightly and said, “The explosion is still quite vicious. If we go out now, our casualties will also be extremely severe. Let’s wait for the regent first.”

She believed that once it was time, Zu An would definitely give the signal. Still, when she saw those scurrying monsters, she couldn't help but become a bit worried. If they still didn’t act soon, the monsters could really completely escape.

Just then, Zu An flew up into the air again. A wanton laugh echoed through the world. “Everyone says you monsters are brave, but I don’t see any difference between you and pigs!” He activated Fragrant Barf again.

Many fleeing monsters immediately stopped, but many of them were still a bit hesitant. The metal ball that could create a huge explosion was just too terrifying. Among them, however, a great monster shouted out in monster language, “There's no way he can use that powerful weapon endlessly! Look at how weak his body is; he's probably already at his limit and is only posturing!”

Compared to a monster, a human like Zu An was much weaker. When they heard that, many monsters felt it made sense. That brat had already tossed out the terrifying weapons twice. Could he really still have a third one?

For some reason, the monsters all burned with rage whenever they looked at the human. They wanted to chop up his corpse into a thousand pieces. As such, a group of monsters ran back, screaming as they charged at Zu An.

When he saw the rage in the monsters’ eyes, Zu An felt a bit of regret. Unfortunately, no Rage points could be earned when they were made angry because of the Fragrant Barf skill. Otherwise, the Rage points of a million monsters would have been exciting to even just think about.

When he saw the monsters surrounding him, Zu An continued to use Fragrant Barf while acting weak. It was as if he was struggling to summon the terrifying weapon again.

When they saw what he was doing, the monsters were a bit shaken. They reflexively slowed their approach. Even though they really wanted to kill him, the power of that weapon was just too frightening. Their survival instincts began to take over.

Sweat appeared on Zu An’s forehead. Even after he struggled for a long time, nothing came out.

The monsters cheered when they saw that, exclaiming, “He completely exhausted himself, as expected! Everyone, let’s fight shoulder to shoulder!” free(w)ebnovel

When she saw the monsters rush at him like a flood, as if they had gone completely mad, the Second Empressy couldn't help but feel worried. She reflexively wanted to rush out and help, but Xiao Yi held her back, saying, “Your highness, you absolutely cannot go! If you go out there, you’ll die for sure!” The Second Empress would be instantly swallowed up by the black mass if she went out, after all.

“But he’s in danger!” the Second Empress exclaimed in a panick. She quickly flung away Xiao Yi.

“What if it’s the regent’s scheme? If you went there, your highness would only put the regent in danger because he would have to save you,” Xiao Yi quickly reminded her.

“Really?” the Second Empress replied, stunned. She realized that there was indeed that possibility.

...

By now, the monsters had arranged themselves in three layers around Zu An. They had learned from their earlier lesson and were scared that he could get away. Many of them set up spiderwebs and other screens. Anything that tried to go past such barriers would be stopped. The monsters weren’t stupid. As long as he remained here, even if he could summon that powerful weapon, he himself would also die and wouldn’t dare to use it.

Unfortunately, even though their plans were good, he still suddenly vanished, and in his place was a fat iron ball. It turned out that when Zu An looked like he was struggling, he had already summoned a nuke, but it was more than ten kilometers away. Once all of the monsters surrounded him, he then immediately swapped positions with it, not giving them any chance to escape.

When they saw the fat metal ball, the monsters’ eyes almost popped out.

“You piece of...”

Boom!

Another terrifying mushroom cloud rose!

When she looked at the blinding ball of fire in the distance, even someone with the Second Empress’ cultivation felt pain in her eyes. However, she didn’t care at all and instead held Xiao Yi’s hand excitedly, exclaiming, “Xiao Yi, I didn’t expect you to understand him best!”

Xiao Yi wiped at her cold sweat. She had only said that to stop the Second Empress from throwing her life away. She'd had no idea that the regent was really this strong.

Nearby, Hu Qianxiao couldn't help but swallow with difficulty when he saw the terrifying mushroom cloud. He quickly warned his sons, “You must firmly remember this. In the future, you must stand at the regent’s side; you can never make him your enemy.”

The Tiger race's princes nodded frantically. One of them was really glad that his relationship with the regent hadn't been bad during their earlier meeting, establishing some friendship between them.

In contrast, those Lion race princes really are dumbasses. They actually dared to provoke the regent! That was probably part of the reason why they sided with the monsters this time.

...

Just then, Zu An had already returned to the air. The dark expanse of monsters was now down to two-fifths of their original number. They were now far from being as impressive as before.

When they saw Zu An return, the remaining monsters roared and ran at him. Even though he couldn't understand what they were saying, judging from their expressions, they were definitely cursing him brutally.

Zu An clenched his teeth and activated Fragrant Barf again. The scattered monsters all stopped. They hesitated as they exchanged looks.

“There’s no way, right? Are we still going?”

“That kid already did three rounds. He’s definitely at his limit.”

“But what if he isn’t?”

“Look at how pale his expression is! Even his legs are shaking, and he can’t even fly steadily anymore. He’s definitely at his limit. Did you realize that when he came back this time, he wasn’t as arrogant as before, and he sounds as if he’s hoping we’ll run away as early as possible?”

“I understand! Is this the so-called double bluff of the humans?”

“Brother, you're amazing! You actually saw through him!”

...

All of the monsters discussed with each other and felt that was highly likely. As such, they rushed at Zu An furiously. This time, they decided to stay a certain distance away and use long-range attacks.

Zu An felt a bit annoyed. It seemed that after being fooled several times, they had become much smarter. Fragrant Barf was effective, but attacking from long-range was still trying to kill him. In order to bait these monsters to come closer, he didn’t use the exchange skill, and instead took the attacks head-on.

After around three breaths of time, the Tranquility Bell around him shattered. Even the dozens of defensive formations he quickly set up could only hold on for thirty seconds. Fortunately, he promptly used the Heaven Devouring Sutra to create black holes all around him and neutralize all of the attacks, even taking out the Human Emperor Seal to protect himself. Only then could he barely hold on.

Their numbers were still not to be underestimated. Even though none of these monsters were as strong as him, when several hundred of them attacked together, it was still extremely terrifying. If he didn’t have all kinds of divine weapons and skills, perhaps he would have already been blasted into dregs.

As they watched the lights around him shatter one after another and saw him tottering, even the monsters that were watching from a distance couldn't hold themselves back anymore. They thought that if they joined in too, they would definitely become the last straw that broke the camel's back.

This guy is just too hateful, actually killing hundreds of thousands of our comrades. We can't swallow down this grudge!

When he saw the remaining monsters start to gather, Zu An knew that it was about time. He suddenly vanished.

When they saw another terrifying metal ball where he had been, all of the monsters went mad. They immediately turned around to run. Unfortunately, they had surrounded Zu An layer after layer, so how could it be that easy to run away?

Boom!

A mushroom cloud soared again.

This one’s destructiveness was even greater than the very first one. More than half of the remaining monsters were destroyed. Only a hundred or so thousand scattered monsters remained, and they fled in all directions.

Zu An appeared in the sky again, calling out, “Don’t leave, my friends! You can definitely win this time!”

However, when they heard his words, the monsters only ran even faster.

Like hell we’ll believe that! This damned human is evil!
