Chapter 277 The Great Xia Superman
Chapter 277 The Great Xia Superman
Shangguan Yunyao muttered to herself, her face filled with utter disbelief.
Of all the people, she was most deeply moved by the power of this legendary monster.
Speed is power. With a magic tower that is far faster than the fastest fighter jet in human history, a single full-force attack can break through Grandpa's proud "Five-Turn Heavenly Candle Gu".
It is important to know that possessing the "Five-Turn Heavenly Cannon Gu" means that one can swim freely in a fire pool with temperatures of thousands of degrees and withstand the bombardment of thousands of cannonballs without suffering any damage.
At the beginning of the last century, the entire Southeast Asia was engulfed in the flames of Western colonial wars. The army of the French Empire invaded the southern border, attempting to forcibly seize the land where their ancestors had lived for generations. Relying on their powerful ships and cannons, they burned, killed, looted, and committed all sorts of atrocities.
The 41st generation "Tianpeng Gu" Gu Master, who was also her grandfather Shangguan Xi, single-handedly braved the artillery fire and charged into the French army's position. He grabbed a Frenchman and beheaded him with a machete, killing hundreds of people in succession, which scared away the entire French army.
Later, the British arrived, bringing with them their supposedly invincible lobster soldiers. The treacherous British had wicked intentions; they kidnapped the then-young grandmother and used her to blackmail the grandfather into leading them to the legendary "Abyss" at the bottom of the Blackwater Cave.
In order to save Grandma's life, Grandpa had no choice but to agree.
In the end, all of the hundreds of fully armed lobster soldiers died deep in the cave. Only the grandfather, whose natal Gu was almost destroyed and whose body was covered with deep, bone-revealing wounds, the grandmother, who was only slightly frightened, and an explorer who was completely driven mad by fear, escaped alive.
From childhood, her grandfather always told her how dangerous and terrifying the Magic Tower was. Even he, who had roamed the southern border and could crack the heads of thousands of fully armed foreign devils, would have suffered far more than just a severe injury to his natal Gu if he hadn't relied on cannon fodder to delay and run for his life back then.
When she and her sister Shangguan Yunque were young, they would sometimes misbehave, and their grandmother would scare them with the story that "disobedient children will be eaten by the magic tower."
So now, I'm witnessing firsthand the "legend" I've heard since I was a child.
Like a stray dog dying in front of you.
Shangguan Yunyao felt her mind go completely blank.
"So, what kind of monster is it that can kill even the Mana Tower in one hit?" She stared blankly up at the ceiling, her voice trembling. "Could it be that the Mana Tower died, and an even more ferocious monster appeared instead?"
The team members finally came to their senses and turned to look at their captain.
Old Hu stepped forward, waved his hand, and couldn't understand why the captain was staring blankly at the rock wall above him, as if he had lost his soul.
"Captain Ruyu? Captain Ruyu!! We should go!"
"Let's run now while we can."
Song Ruyu finally came to her senses, let out a long breath, and a relieved smile appeared on her lips:
"No need, our reinforcements have arrived."
Shangguan Yunyao: "???"
"Really?! Our 749 Bureau has someone of this caliber?!"
"Mmm." A tenderness welled up in Song Ruyu's eyes, and her lips unconsciously curved into a smile. Her voice was as soft as a whisper, "He is my... mmm... husband..."
Shangguan Yunyao: "???"
Holy crap, Captain, when did you get a husband?!
Whoosh whoosh—
From the darkness deeper within the cave, long, thin, black shadows suddenly emerged.
A sharp, piercing sound of wind breaking through the air instantly swept through the entire cave.
Shangguan Yunyao shrank back in fright, and after seeing what those things were, she almost peed herself on the spot.
"My God, how come there are so many magic towers?!" she exclaimed, staring in disbelief. "There are at least thirty of them!"
Rumble rumble rumble—
A violent, continuous tremor came from the rock wall overhead, as if something was rapidly chiseling through the thick rock layers. The mana towers that had been poised to unleash their power instantly spooked themselves, roaring and hissing angrily at the rock wall.
Wait a moment……
Shangguan Yunyao's mind went blank again.
They're at least hundreds of meters underground right now!
Falcon Tower: "Ha!"
Among the magic towers, one rushed out first, suddenly darting into a crevice in the rock wall to resist the uninvited guest that had invaded its territory.
Snapped--
A puddle of minced meat appeared on the rock face.
Unsurprisingly, it was like a stray dog that was carelessly trampled to death on the roadside, instantly turned into dust by the thing above.
More magic towers rushed towards the top like madmen, but were all knocked down within seconds, slammed hard onto the ground, and turned into puddles of soft, fleshy pulp.
In a daze, their relentless charge inexplicably evoked a sense of tragic grandeur.
Good luck! The cave guardian beast resisting the invaders?
Unfortunately, just like an ordinary person is no match for a little girl in front of a magic tower.
Those magic towers, in the face of the ever-approaching thing, were like little girls, weak, pitiful, and helpless.
On the other side, Song Ruyu found a clean, large rock to sit on and began to groom her snow-white long hair.
She bit the hair tie and neatly tied her messy long hair into a high ponytail.
I haven't showered for over a week, um... will he find me annoying?
She secretly lowered her head and smelled her armpits, but there didn't seem to be any special smell... After all, she was a tiger-type loli with a natural body fragrance, so she was very clean, and even when she lay on her side, she was surnamed Bai.
This scene completely stunned Shangguan Yunyao.
As a veteran member of the third squad, this was the first time she had seen her captain in this delicate and charming pose, as if applying makeup in front of a "mirror".
Is this still the same Captain Snow Lotus she knows, who is as aloof as an iceberg snow lotus, always looking down on people, and arrogant?
Finally, after wave of relentless attacks, the legendary monster, Mana Tower, was completely annihilated.
"Ora ora ora—Ora—!"
With the final punch, the thick rock wall was smashed through.
The long-awaited sunlight streamed into this underground space, where the sun never shines, for the first time through the cave entrance.
Even the faintest wisp of light was enough to bring tears to the eyes of the team members who had been trapped for eight days.
In the eerie green light of the Lamp-Lighting Gu, everyone could clearly see the newcomer's appearance—
Wearing a gilded cardboard box hood, a fluttering crimson cloak, and covered in rock-patterned armor, he resembled a "Great Xia Superman" straight out of mythology.
"Hey, long time no see." "Superman of Great Xia" smiled and looked at the striking white figure in the crowd, his gaze landing precisely on Song Ruyu.
Their eyes met across the distance at that moment.
"Mmm..." Song Ruyu walked towards him step by step, her pace gradually quickening until it became a jog, and finally she leaped into his familiar and warm embrace. She buried her head in his chest and nuzzled against him, her voice sweet:
"Long time no see... You've finally arrived."
Jiang Ling removed the cardboard knight's mask, revealing his sunny and handsome face.
Many of the female team members present stared wide-eyed, and even the male team members couldn't help but gasp.
So handsome...
Is there such a handsome man in this world?
Song Ruyu's legs went weak instantly. Smelling his alluring and familiar scent, she almost lost control.
A glossy sheen appeared on her moist lips as she breathed softly.
Her once cold eyes were now veiled with an unyielding moisture.
Jiang Ling leaned in gently, raising an eyebrow, and said, "A kiss? My precious Ruyu... um..."
Before he could finish speaking, the white-haired little girl tiptoed and gently kissed his lips.
She wrapped her arms tightly around his neck, desperately seeking the warmth and breath she had longed for.
cluck cluck... whew...
Team members: ૮៸៸៸ºᗜº៸៸៸ა? ? ?
If there were no one around, they might actually put on a bizarre and hilarious performance.
Suddenly, Jiang Ling's eyes sharpened, and his earth elemental power erupted.
"I'm starving—!" A scream rang out as a figure was forcibly dragged out of a crevice in the rock wall and slammed onto the ground in front of the two people.
That person was none other than Aguda, the King of Southern Gu, who had been hiding in the shadows for a long time.
At this moment, he was terrified, his pants were already wet from fear, and he was paralyzed on the ground, not daring to move.
"Oh, right," Song Ruyu said, withdrawing her tongue and whispering in Jiang Ling's ear, "He made some threats at me before..."
"Oh, right." Song Ruyu reluctantly withdrew her tongue, a smile playing on her lips, and whispered slowly in Jiang Ling's ear:
"He threatened me before... saying that when he met you, he would beat you up in front of me."
