Chapter 346: Descent Ritual

Facing an existence capable of snapping a wearer's neck through their Individual Combat Armor, a surge of fear welled up in the hearts of these Noble Private Army soldiers.

"Damn it, is that a Human?"

"Absolutely impossible, how could a Human have such immense strength? That guy Jack is actually colluding with an Alien Race here!"

Several Noble Private Army soldiers opened fire at the only door until their Tactical Rifle magazines were empty; while changing magazines, a leader said to the soldiers beside him.

"You! Go over and see if that monster is still there."

"Me? Are you crazy? If I go over to that monster, wouldn't I just be throwing my life away?"

The named soldier looked at the leader in surprise, his voice rising a few notches.

"Go! Or I'll make you die right now!"

The leader pointed his Tactical Rifle at the soldier without ceremony and spoke in a cold tone.

Seeing that dark muzzle aimed at him, the soldier had no choice but to nod and reply.

"Yes, I'll go right now..."

Before the words had faded, several Hand Grenades were thrown in through the doorway; watching the grenades trace a graceful arc through the room, they landed at the feet of these Noble Private Army soldiers.

"It's a grenade!"

Seeing this, several Noble Private Army soldiers all wanted to escape through the hole blown in the window, but none would yield to the others; they all crowded at the exit, and as an explosion rang out, these Noble Private Army soldiers, along with their Individual Combat Armor, were blown into fragments.

"Tch, damn it, you lot want to come and attack someone the Emperor values? Hah, ptooey!"

A Catachan tough appeared at the doorway, and seeing the Noble Private Army soldiers blown into unrecognizable states, he gave a disdainful laugh on his fleshy face and spat at the corpses.

The other Catachan toughs also arrived on the first floor after hearing the commotion, immediately finishing off the Noble Private Army soldiers who had snuck in through the windows.

Outside the building, Cai Xiangliang saw the way the soldiers were scrambling and shouted loudly.

"You bunch of idiots! Wouldn't it be fine to just blast the door again? What are you fighting over!"

Upon hearing Cai Xiangliang's order, the group of Noble Private Army soldiers began to blast the door again; the Laser Beams raining down from above made these soldiers fear the weapons used by those troops.

At the same time, Cai Xiangliang also sensed the power of those weapons and muttered to himself.

"To think the soldiers protecting Jack have such weapons! Why didn't anyone from the Military District mention this before? Could it be a weapon developed recently?

I must get my hands on this kind of weapon; then I will have the capital to contend with Yingzhou!"

As the building's door was detonated again, this time the opening was not just a small gap as before; seeing this, the Noble Private Army soldiers swarmed in, shouting as they charged into the High-Level Conference Building.

But they were met with Laser Beams at maximum power; 20 Vitrian soldiers stood in a row, firing at the Heretics charging in.

And as the Noble Private Army soldiers fired at these Vitrian Dragoons, their attacks did not harm these Vitrian soldiers wearing Black Scale Armor in the slightest.

"What kind of equipment do they have? Why is our attack ineffective?"

"Try using a Psionic Attack!"

Sensing the difficulty of this group of soldiers in Black Scale Armor, some Noble Private Army soldiers used Psionic Attacks, throwing various psionic attacks toward the Vitrian soldiers.

Only after being hit by the Psionic Attacks were a few Vitrian soldiers knocked flying.

"Officer, these Heretics' Psionic Attacks still have some power; I'm not sure if they have other strange abilities. I suggest we clear them out directly!"

The lead Vitrian Captain nodded after hearing his subordinate's suggestion and said.

"Makes sense, let's drive them out!"

The Noble Private Army soldiers, who had barely managed to charge into the High-Level Conference Building by relying on their numbers, discovered that although these soldiers in Black Scale Armor were few in number, the weapons in their hands were terrifyingly powerful.

"Damn it, what kind of Armor are they wearing? Why is it so sturdy? My flame attack is completely ineffective!"

"They're pushing over!"

"Charge up and fight them in close quarters! Our close-combat type Back Spirit Psionics will deal with them..."

Before the soldier who shouted this could finish his sentence, he was struck by a Laser Beam, a large hole was opened in his body, and he slowly collapsed to the ground.

Cai Xiangliang, who was overseeing the battle from the High-Level Conference Building, saw the soldiers who had finally managed to charge in now being driven out, and shouted angrily.

"You bunch of trash! Can't you even do this?"

Just as Cai Xiangliang was cursing the group of Noble Private Army soldiers, he suddenly felt the ground beneath his feet begin to shake; a strong red light erupted from the Inner City Noble District, illuminating the entire sky and adding a touch of eeriness to the already overcast weather.

"The Noble District, what happened over there?"

Cai Xiangliang saw the red light erupting from the Noble District and muttered to himself.

Inner City Noble District.

In that dark and damp secret chamber, the light was so dim that one could barely see anything.

The air was filled with a nauseating, putrid stench, and the walls were covered in moss and mold.

In the chamber's cage, a group of children were huddled together, their bodies trembling incessantly, their eyes filled with fear.

When that figure, like a nightmare to these children, slowly appeared before them, the children were so frightened that their entire bodies involuntarily shrank backward.

Lu Wang walked slowly to the front of the cage, looking down at the shivering children.

He raised his right hand to touch the cage and spoke in a very flat tone: "Being the first blood-meal after the Master's descent is your honor! Don't be ungrateful!"

After saying this, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a ferocious smile.

Seeing that these children could no longer understand what he was saying, Lu Wang couldn't be bothered to waste more breath; he came before Yingfang, whose ankles were tied by a chain, and said.

"Although I know you have already become an idiot, your body can still serve as a temporary vessel for the Master, which can be considered making the best use of you. After all, you have no useful value now."

"Heh... hehehehe... he"

Yingfang did not respond to Lu Wang's words, only giggling foolishly, saliva flowing uncontrollably from the corner of his mouth.

"I thought you would hold out for a long time; although it did indeed exceed the longest record here, Yingzhou is your brother after all. You held out for such a short time—are you really brothers?"

Lu Wang undid the fixed chain and drove Yingfang to the bed in the secret chamber; after making Yingfang lie on the bed, Lu Wang slowly came to the front of the bed, knelt on both knees, and several wisps of Black Qi appeared in his hands; he waved his hands in the air a few times, and the Black Qi vanished without a trace.

"Then, let the Master's Descent Ritual begin; let the Ninth Defense Zone become the Master's territory!"

Lu Wang shouted loudly with some excitement, the Black Qi in his hands appearing continuously; the Black Qi followed Lu Wang's arms, forming an eerie Magic Array around the bed.
