Chapter 189: Ambush and Counterattack (Part 2)

~8 min read 1,434 words

With the players joining in, the battle situation has become more stable.

The Magma Cave Ant General launched fierce attacks on the Jiading Cheng army repeatedly, but it still had no effect; instead, it allowed the opponent to form a battle array in mid-air, thereby causing huge losses to its own side.

Afterwards, it summoned the final Core of this nest, scribbled on it, and then raised its arm to grab at the void.

Then, the stone pillars of the Magnetic Martial Array connected to each other with magnetic electricity, and immediately, a burst of Magic Power erupted above the crowd.

Ma Lailaiyin saw this scene and immediately ordered everyone to prepare for defense.

The order was quickly passed to everyone's ears; the Jiading Cheng soldiers quickly formed a new battle array, and although the players did not know what was going on, they still took out their respective trump cards to prepare for a fatal blow.

Rumble—

Bolts of lightning fell indiscriminately; anyone or Magma Cave Ant hit by the falling lightning was either dead or injured. Even though everyone was prepared, they still could not block this violent lightning.

Meanwhile, the Magma Cave Ant General controlled the Magnetic Martial Array with one hand and kept the other against the Nest Core; its torn insect shell proved that it was trying its best to control the position of the falling lightning, but some lightning still fell into the Ant Swarm uncontrollably.

Zhao Yuxin watched the chaotic battlefield from inside the carriage, constantly guarding against the Black Mouth Dao Group taking the opportunity to strike at them.

At the same time, she kept watching the private messages of Sun Zi Fu Fu, hoping that they would reply in time on this chaotic battlefield.

Rumble—

Rumble—

The falling lightning sounded like drumbeats struck for everyone, stimulating the fighting spirit of the humans and Magma Cave Ants, and even more so, the anxiety deep within Zhao Yuxin's heart.

When she looked at the outermost perimeter of the battle array, she saw Zhu Zhiquan coordinating with the battle array of the Jiading Cheng soldiers, killing the Ant Swarm as they approached one by one.

Zhao Yuxin was worried about being seen by the Black Mouth Dao Group, so she sent a private message to Zhu Zhiquan. However, Zhu Zhiquan was having too much fun killing and did not notice the private message she sent for a moment.

Seeing Zhu Zhiquan so engrossed in killing, Zhao Yuxin immediately called the Hook-Lock Tree Demon to bring him back.

The Hook-Lock Tree Demon received the order and immediately jumped out of the carriage to bring back the unwilling-looking Zhu Zhiquan.

Originally, Zhu Zhiquan wanted to question Zhao Yuxin, but seeing Zhao Yuxin staring at him fiercely, Zhu Zhiquan was unable to speak.

"Sit down quickly, we are going to move deeper into the ranks in a moment," Zhao Yuxin said.

Zhu Zhiquan: "Why?"

Zhao Yuxin: "Oh my—you don't think about it, there are so many players here; it's possible that people from the Black Mouth Dao Group are nearby. If they see us here, wouldn't Jiugong Xizi come running over to fight to the death?"

Zhu Zhiquan: "So what? Just because they have more people, I'm afraid of that woman?"

Zhao Yuxin: "But I heard from Huang Jing before that Jiugong Xizi ambushed you in a previous battle. What if she wants to ambush you again this time?"

Zhu Zhiquan: "This is a life-or-death moment now. If Jiugong Xizi still dares to make a move here, it will directly affect whether the players can cooperate with the natives! Let her dare to bring people to try it!"

Zhao Yuxin: "But..."

"Azhao, no need to say more, I'm going to continue killing a few more Magma Cave Ants!" After saying that, Zhu Zhiquan jumped out of the carriage, ready to kill Magma Cave Ants with everyone again.

"Ajiu, come back!" Zhao Yuxin wanted to stop Zhu Zhiquan from going to kill the Magma Cave Ants, but Zhu Zhiquan moved quickly and had already reached the front row in the blink of an eye.

"This Zhu fellow!" Zhao Yuxin impatiently went to the driver's seat of the Tricycle, ready to provide fire support to Zhu Zhiquan at any time.

Rumble—

Rumble—

Rumble!!!

…………

Bolts of lightning fell, making Zhao Yuxin feel uneasy in her heart; several even almost struck Zhu Zhiquan and their Tricycle. Fortunately, it was all a close call, and there was no real danger.

Inside the carriage, Xuebao knelt before the Guardian Goddess Statue, placing a pile of things she liked on the statue, hoping this would help them get through the crisis.

The two Durian Warriors had long since gone outside the carriage, alert for any Magma Cave Ants that might break in at any time.

Watching countless people die in battle around her, beads of sweat on Zhao Yuxin's forehead fell quietly onto her legs. Her eyes also constantly scanned every player around her, and her Bat Wing Ear also constantly amplified the sounds around her, just to prevent the Black Mouth Dao Group from ambushing them.

Beep beep beep—

Beep beep beep—

At this moment, Zhao Yuxin's private message made a sound. Zhao Yuxin opened it and found that it was Sun Zi Fu Fu replying to her message, so she hurriedly replied to them.

Before long, the Tricycle of Sun Zi Fu Fu drove out from the Portal. Zhuangzhuang saw Zhao Yuxin through the car window and immediately couldn't wait to enter the other party's carriage to find Xuebao.

Ling Xi also slowly jumped off the car and came to Zhao Yuxin, saying: "Little Sister Zhao, where is your man?"

Zhao Yuxin pointed in the direction of Zhu Zhiquan and said: "Over there killing ants; anyway, no matter how I try to persuade him, he won't listen."

Sun Zi leaned against the door of the Tricycle and said carelessly: "Little sister-in-law, there's no need to be so nervous, because the members of the Black Mouth Dao Group are relatively far away from here and won't be able to get over for a while."

Zhao Yuxin immediately put forward her opinion: "But those people from the Black Mouth Dao Group could come over at any time. If they see us, wouldn't that be terrible?"

Ling Xi comforted her: "Little sister, don't be anxious. Now we and the natives are all trapped here. It's useless to hide no matter what if we don't kill our way out. Let's hurry and kill a path."

After hearing Ling Xi's words, Zhao Yuxin realized that she had been inconsiderate, and her voice was a bit low: "Then... alright, I will help the army resist the Magma Cave Ants now."

Afterwards, Zhao Yuxin immediately assigned tasks, letting Xuebao be responsible for driving the Tricycle and firing the Vehicle-mounted Vortex Cannon.

The two Durian Warriors no longer acted as bodyguards around the Tricycle, but instead charged into the Ant Swarm, relying on their thorny bodies to shine brilliantly among the ants.

Finally, the Hook-Lock Tree Demon fixed the Combat Plant planted in the Flowerpot inside the carriage and provided help to those in crisis at any time.

As for Zhao Yuxin herself, she kept creating new plants. When her Magic Power ran out, she mass-produced Micro Plant Creation Arrays. These arrays were listed on the Trading Channel at a low price, and they were snatched up in no time.

Once her Magic Power recovered, Zhao Yuxin continued to create new plants, doing what she could for the entire battlefield.

After Sun Zi Fu Fu finished advising Zhao Yuxin, they immediately realized that there might still be many players who, for some reason, were still killing each other on the battlefield.

Thinking of this, Sun Zi felt a headache: "Oh my god, wifey, you say there are so many players, is it possible for us to unite and face the outside world together?"

Ling Xi looked at the soldiers and players who had died in battle, as well as the indiscriminately falling lightning and the attacking Magma Cave Ants, and slowly spoke: "We are not immortals or saints; we only need to ensure our own safety."

Sun Zi praised her repeatedly from the side, while Ling Xi jumped into the driver's seat of the Tricycle and said to Sun Zi: "Let's go, husband, we need to have a good talk with Jiugong Xizi."

Hearing Ling Xi's words, Sun Zi was startled at first, but quickly reacted. After calling Zhuangzhuang back, he drove the Tricycle toward the position of the Black Mouth Dao Group.
