The Free City Shangri-La, December 3, 568, El Tienol
Minutes before the Tongtian Cannon fired downwards, the people who were trying to escape at full speed outside Shangri-La were not just Reins.
The three masters of Shi Chong's side, Kumo Lion, Leumon, Ananda, and Hao Kelian, who was captured by them and became captives, are flying fast toward the west, preparing to rendezvous with Shi Chong. They already knew that Gong Jin was about to launch the Tongtian Cannon, and they were evacuating at full speed for this.
In a basic estimate, they think they can definitely escape the danger, because when they returned to the ground from the crypt, the exit was already dozens of miles outside of Shangri-La city, and they were out of flight at full speed, so when they returned to the ground, the exit was already dozens of miles away. The blue-and-white bright beam of light ignited below Jin'ao Island, and they were very relieved and gloated for the citizens of Shangri-La.
"Killing so many people at once, Zhou Gongjin's name must be in history forever."
"Hey, what's the great thing about killing so many people? If I kill Zhou Gongjin, wouldn't my name in history be stronger than him in the future?"
"Kill Zhou Gongjin? Hey, do you think you are your sire... Hey, is that lunatic Qilesi?"
The three people talked while flying. However, their ridicule may have also passed into the ears of the Red Dragon God and the Xiande Fage. Therefore, when the Tongtian Cannon hits Shangri-La directly, a change that should not have occurred, Lan The white beam of light moved quickly to the west, like a giant blade of white light that cuts through the sky and the earth, and it was moving toward them quickly and impartially.
It's like standing alone on the coast, watching the towering tsunami roll up the surging high waves, and rush all over. The despair that Quan Ying and the others had experienced before appeared in the hearts of the three demons ten times in this short moment.
It’s inevitable to be frightened, but the Kumo lion, the most senior among them, has maintained a minimum of calm. He grabbed the left hand and the right hand. At the same time, he held the hands of the two companions and shouted wildly. The magical power of the strong magical power moves the magical method that moves instantaneously, shuttles through the space urgently, disappears from the position just now.
Kumoma Lion’s rational strain saved the lives of three demon men. However, death was imminent, and this heavenly magician was not really calm, because although he still remembered to hold his companions to cast spells, But he completely forgot that he grasped the leech demon with his left hand, but kept holding the captive Hao Kelian with his right hand.
As a result, when the Kumo lion disappeared during the instant movement, Ananda, who was abandoned by the two comrades, stayed in panic and stared at the white light giant that divided the world and the earth. The column is getting closer.
"Why, how could there be such a ridiculous thing..."
Standing in the same place blankly, finally realized that he had been abandoned by his comrades and destiny, the strong demon, let out the last roar of his life.
"Wow~~~"
White light, quickly across...
※※※
The bombardment of the Tongtian Cannon is over. From Quan Ying’s perspective, the walls of Shangri-La are intact. After experiencing the Tongtian Cannon bombardment, it is incredible to have such a complete building. Quan Ying couldn’t help but have an idea. , I almost suspect that everything that happened just now is an illusion, I just had an unreal dream, and the Tongtian Cannon didn't bombard it.
However, when her sight was completely clear, Quan Ying realized that it was not the same thing. Shangri-La, which was hit by a cannon from the sky, would never be intact even if it was not hit head-on.
The smoke and smoke in the sky gradually fell silent, and the field of vision in front of her became clear from the turbidity, and Quan Ying could see the real scene of Shangri-La.
There are indeed many places that are still intact, but half of Shangri-La City is full of white smoke, burning the fire that is inevitable after the shelling; the original several famous landmark buildings were either half ruined or directly turned into The ruined walls are horrible; even if they are not on the scene, it means how heavy the casualties in the city are.
But...it is already a miracle in itself to have such a scene. According to normal estimates, under the direct attack of the Tongtian Cannon, the entire Shangri-La will be destroyed in an instant. Except for a huge bottomless hole, nothing will be left, there will be no ruins, no broken buildings, no There will be a fire to the house, there will be no crying and crying.
"What...what miracle is this... on earth?"
Quan Ying was at a loss, but Nier slapped her shoulder on her shoulder and turned her head to the side. She saw Nier staring to the west in amazement. Quan Ying followed and couldn't believe her eyes.
A cold light gleaming with magnificent illusion of colors, extending to the west, like the aurora of the far north that is rumored to be, changing with the colorful glories of ice and cold, the beauty is intoxicating, winding, and shaking. Along with the cascading waves, it spread and disappeared on the western horizon.
On the top of this infinite aurora, the sky curtain is like a piece of the most beautiful black satin, the countless stars of Ming Yao, like gems decorated on black forging, gleaming, reflecting the magnificent aurora on the ground , Extending to the end of the horizon together.
The beautiful dark night view makes people look refreshing, but there is only one thing that is very incongruous, that is, on both sides of this black satin, the sky is clear and cloudless, and the sun rises high, and it is full of hope. Bright sunshine.
In the entire sky, there is only the dark night!
The same day and night, this weird scene made Nier and Quan Ying look pale. Let alone this kind of scene, I have never dreamed of it. I can’t even imagine how big it will be. Power can distort space and produce this situation.
"Woo...Woo..."
The small sobbing sound attracted the attention of Quan Ying and Nier. They turned their heads to see that the source of the crying was Ai Ling. Under the protection of T1000, the girl was not injured at all, but the two "lucky guys" who were rescued from the city by her did not have such good luck. When the sky cannon was about to be fired, the three of them fell to the ground under pressure. The two citizens who didn't have enough protection power had already gone for most of their lives. They were shocked by the strong sound wave of the explosion, and they were killed on the spot. When Ai Ling noticed, they were already breathless.
After a busy day, no one was saved in the end. Looking at the two dead, the girl couldn't help crying.
Quanying and Nier quickly comforted and persuaded them, but when the two of them looked at each other, they both felt puzzled. They couldn't figure out why the Tongtian Cannon would strike a crook. This should be impossible for Gong Jin. mistake.
Although they prayed to the gods together when they were at a loss, they really need to make a rational analysis. Quanying and Nier don’t think that the blessing of the gods can distort the direction of the shelling. The only possibility is what happened on Jin'ao Island. Change, the hard work and struggle of a certain person or people, has changed the fate of Shangri-La.
"Is it my brother? Or... Xiao Wu?"
Quan Ying couldn't answer Nier's question easily, she only looked up at the sky with the confusion in her heart.
Shangri-La was lucky enough to escape, but Jin'ao Island suffered undeserved wounds. Near the launch port at the bottom, it was touched by the aftermath of the slanted shot of the Tongtian Cannon. There were multiple explosions and continuous fires. , Electricity and light ran wildly, and many metal panels fell from a high altitude, but when they hit the protective cover, they were completely destroyed and did not fall to the ground.
"It seems that even the island in the sky was damaged. I don't know if the situation is serious, my husband..."
"It's not too serious, the best proof that the protective cover is still working."
Ailing interjected a sentence from the side. She is a great expert in this field, and one glance at the distance can tell the situation of Jin'ao Island's damage.
"In order to withstand the impact force of the Tongtian Cannon, the nearby area has been specially strengthened, and a force field will definitely be set up, so the actual damage is not serious. These fires and damages, as long as the mechanical repair team is sent, it is very It will be handled urgently soon and the most basic operation will be restored. Brother... Brother Zhu Yan is on the island, and these things won't bother him."
Thinking that he was hostile to his brother, and that his brother had also contributed to such a cruel massacre, completely losing the kindness that a Primordial Demon Path researcher should have, Ai Ling felt sad, but...even though these things have happened, She still doesn't know whether she should "clean up the door".
Like Airing’s notice, the fires that were originally burning at the bottom of Jinao Island were suddenly extinguished, and the flashing mecha lights disappeared, and the internal mechanical repair team was rescued in time. .
Jin'ao Island still has the ability to move, so this nightmare is not over yet, especially when the fire at the bottom of Jin'ao Island is extinguished, the crying and groaning in Shangri-La City quickly disappeared, and it quickly became In a deadly city, Quan Ying is therefore very sure that the induced electric wave has started to operate again, regaining control of the survivors still living in Shangri-La.
"Why, how can there be such a person! He is more terrifying than Qi Leis, must he kill these people to be reconciled?"
Eiling's voice is full of sadness, and he can't understand why human beings have to kill each other so much. They have to kill the enemy and innocent people until there is not one left. The rejection of other races does not matter. They are all the same race, with the same color of blood, so why do such cruel things be done?
Quan Ying can’t answer, but she knows that if Gongjin’s purpose is really to kill life, then it’s absolutely impossible to stop before she collects enough energy for him to break through. She will definitely kill the tens of millions of people in Shangri-La. of.
"Beaches is horrible... By the way, it's Qiles."
Silently listening to the conversation between Quanying and Ai Ling, Nier remained silent, watching the Shangri-La in the smoke and flames, but after both of them were silent, Nier suddenly looked like Thinking of something, Huo Ran stood up, asked Quan Ying and Ai Ling to assist, propped up her exhausted body, and flew towards Shangri-La again.

"The fire in area A99 was under control, and the mecha engineer team was transferred to area S36."
"The outer wall of the X21 zone was severely damaged and was abandoned by blasting to prevent further smoldering."
"The firing part of the Tongtian Cannon is damaged, request more engineering team support."
"The restoration of the energy supply is complete, and the total output is gradually picking up."
After that shelling, it was not only Shangri-La that fell into chaos, but also Jin'ao Island itself.
Because Yuangoro broke into the main energy gate, he didn't know what astounding means was used to deflect the shot of the Tongtian Cannon. At the moment of firing, part of the huge out-of-control energy flowed to Jinao Island itself, causing many places. Major damage.
Leaving Zhu Yan to sit in the main control room is Gong Jin’s most correct personnel decision recently. If he hadn’t used Jin’ao Island equipment in an orderly manner to solve the different mechanical problems that occurred everywhere, then Jin Ao Island was probably under the influence of that shot, causing a chain explosion on the island, and it might even fall to the ground as a result.
"Repair all damaged parts to a minimum. The sooner the better. The function must be restored as soon as possible. We are now fighting. This is the front line. Please don't forget this."
Zhu Yan screamed at the subordinates, but the feeling in his heart was mixed, and he didn't know how to distinguish it. Although the Tongtian Cannon failed and it caused some damage to Jinao Island, he didn't feel it. How angry, and feel a little relieved, how can this be explained?
That Amano Gengoro is really amazing. Even though he doesn't know what he did, from the academic theory of Taikoo Modao, there should be no means to influence the main energy gate. The energy operating there is too vast, even if it is the all-out effort of the Celestial Martial Artist, compared with it, it is only a pebble hitting a rock.
Gengoro can influence the main energy gate with his own power, causing one of the four energy gates that make up the launch of the Tongtian Cannon to make a mistake, thereby destroying the overall balance, and finally failing the launch. Such a move can only Use the word "miracle" to describe it.
"Are there any messages coming back from area R77?"
That area is where Gengoro is located, and it is also the most severely damaged area. However, Zhu Yan’s question was not answered. The excessively powerful explosion destroyed all the mechanical equipment there. No image or information could be transmitted. Even in the situation of energy storm raging, it must be blocked continuously by multiple gates. It will not spread to other places.
(Such a horrible energy storm, how can a flesh and blood body be able to withstand it? Even those turban warriors have been wiped out by the storm. Are his bones harder than super alloys? It must have been evaporated long ago.)
Even if the two sides are enemies with each other, Zhu Yan seriously feels that this man who looks like a gentle woman is indeed a man whom he admires. If it is not because of the wrong occasion, he should really pray for some good fortune.
"It is reported that the SS equipment is affected, and some of them are damaged beyond repair. Do you want to notify Lord Gong Jin of this?"
"...No, Lord Gong Jin is now busy fighting. Knowing this will definitely affect his mood. Don't bother him at this time."
The so-called SS equipment is the equipment used to absorb and store the souls of the dead. In Gong Jin’s reservation, the importance of this equipment is equivalent to the Tongtian Cannon. It is absolutely indispensable, but Zhu Yan has since guessed After the use of this equipment, I felt a strong hatred, thinking that martial artist cultivation depends on self-reliance and self-reliance. In the past, Lord Gong Jin walked along with such a noble martial arts spirit, why suddenly changed his position and learned from Huatianxie. Ghost Road?
Zhu Yan was very sad about Master Gong Jin's personality mutation, so when he heard that the soul storage equipment was damaged, he didn't say anything other than a faint instruction to repair it with all his strength.
However, this painstaking effort has not been conveyed to the coach. During a one-sided boring battle with Lancelot, Gong Jin sensed the launch of the Tongtian Cannon and knew that the launch was unsuccessful. When the aftermath that shook the entire Jinao Island finally subsided, he immediately used his portable equipment to make an inquiry. Damaged condition.
The device was turned on, and the golden light curtain enveloped Gong Jin, forming a golden transparent mask. Many numbers quickly ran out of the surface, and under Gong Jin’s operation, they quickly transformed into three-dimensional graphics, showing various places. The damage profile, including Shangri-La directly below.
Lancelow didn't understand the ancient magic way, but when Gong Jin operated the three-dimensional layer of Shangri-La, he recognized it at a glance and knew what it was.
From the perspective of the three-dimensional figure, Shangri-La was seriously injured, but it was far better than the expected ending of the direct attack of the Sky Cannon. If it was only this level of damage, Quan Ying and Nier would be safe and sound. , It's not in vain to fight a life here.
(But...the youngest doesn’t know how. The task he took is not easier than me. This time he can stop the Tongtian Cannon. It’s all his credit.)
Lancelot could not sense the existence of Gengoro. If you call with Tianxin consciousness, you may be able to get a response, but there are too many obstacles in Jinao Island, and there is a guy with Tianxin consciousness far more tyrannical in front, calling Mostly it didn't work, besides, Gengoro looked like an immortal young man who couldn't kill him.
"Uh..."
Lancelow suddenly noticed something very bad. Compared to Origin Goro, maybe his current situation is more worrying, because the yin and yang weird iron-faced ladyboy has a completely different aura after closing the light curtain. Up.
The shiny metallic mask still seems to be as cold as ever, but the deep blue eyes under the mask don’t give the impression of killing people like ice crystals as usual, but rather like an active volcano about to move. The scorching heat will burst out at any time, burning out everything you can see.
Gong Jin gave several orders to the main control room. Lancelow couldn't hear him clearly, but it was vaguely ordering the other side to reserve energy again and fire a second shot underground.
"Hey, take that damaged broken copper and rotten iron to attack, aren't you afraid of mechanical disintegration? Something that is not very reliable in the first place, if you blow it up all at once, your Jinao Island will really be ruined. ."
"Hmph, worry about yourself before talking!"
After the communication was over, Gong Jin turned his gaze to Lancelow, and said in an extremely cold voice: "The miracle will not happen continuously, the Tongtian Cannon can be fired again, this time no one can sacrifice anymore. Are you very happy just now that the woman below escaped a disaster? These are totally meaningless. Even if they escape by chance, it doesn’t make any sense, because you will die here today. After you die, no one can replace you. The position of Reins is about to fall apart. This is the destiny that God has set for you."
These were the things that Xiaocao was most worried about before. Gong Jin's sharp and realistic strategic vision clearly pointed the enemy's vulnerability to this point. However, the unrealistic Lancelot had different ideas.
"You are right. I am an irreplaceable person in the current Reince system. Killing the headed me, Reince might really fall apart because of this, but what about that? No longer, the ideal is still there. As long as everyone has a common ideal, even if Reins collapses, it is just a form, and it will soon regroup in other forms."
Lancelow wiped the blood stains on his lips, stood up again, smiled and said: "The reason for determining whether a group will exist is the actual need, not the individual. Even if I was killed by you today, I will still There is a second person who inherits my ideas, and continues to provoke you and seek justice from Eltinus. On the contrary, you never seem to have thought that if you are killed yourself, then no one can replace it. Eltinol will really be ruined."
Lancelow was not present during the First World War in Jerusalem, so it is impossible for him to know what Wang Wu once said to Gong Jin. However, this pair of congenial brothers uttered the same words separately, which caused a big impact on Gong Jin and made him truly feel the feeling of passing on the fire. At this moment, Lancelow was in his eyes. , The peaceful expression of talking, neither humble nor overbearing, undoubtedly carried the shadow of Wang Wu.
More importantly, the problem that Lancelow pointed out was a problem that Gong Jin was unwilling to face for many years. Now that he has been criticized positively, his anger and resentment suddenly poured out like a mountain torrent. Vent.
Lancelow can feel this, but he will not regret that he has lost the opportunity to escape secretly because of overstimulating his opponent. The difference in strength is so great, locked by the opponent's Tianxin consciousness, it is useless to escape to the end of the world, unless you can first give the opponent an effective blow to block the operation of Tianxin, this may be a little hopeful, but...what should I do?
"Just think about it, if you can't defeat me, it will be your turn to die this time."
"Oh? Really? I seem to have died many times just now. I don't know who is the man who can still stand here alive?"
"You don't need to be too proud, I suggest you start thinking about a problem."
Gong Jinhan said: "If I use the vitality lock of all things to seal your celestial power, and cut off your head with one blow, I don’t know if you have any way to use the etheric immortal body to remove the body below the neck. Is the weight born? Is the answer to this question interesting? While you still have a head, think about it!"
