Chapter 264: Nighttime Ambush Battle (Part 2)

Four tricycles sped through the city ruins; from time to time, they discovered Blood-Grievance Mushroom Demons attempting to intercept them, but without exception, they were all killed by the group.

Charging at the very front were the tricycle of Zhu Zhiquan and Zhao Yuxin; relying on the Impact Cones on the vehicle and the assistance of Snake-Vine Creepers, all the Blood-Grievance Mushroom Demons became pulp beneath their wheels.

Chen Ligang poked his head out of the carriage to look around, because he always felt something had been following them; although he knew it was likely a City Flower Demon sent by the Blood-Chain Flower Empress, he just couldn't find where that little thing was.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom...

At this moment, the ground suddenly trembled, and a massive monster was continuously approaching in their direction.

It was an Odoba Demon Tree! Even though everyone hadn't seen where it was yet, they all knew this big guy had arrived.

They saw a group of City Flower Demons fly toward the third intersection ahead, and after turning in their direction, they hid in nearby buildings.

Subsequently, an Odoba Demon Tree in a state of rage rushed out, but it looked left and right and didn't find the bastard who disturbed its sleep; instead, it saw four tricycles in the distance approaching in its direction with their headlights on.

Following this, the Odoba Demon Tree let out a long howl toward the sky; to vent its anger, it decided to use these tricycles as targets for its release.

Thus, it strode with its massive legs and charged toward the four tricycles ahead.

Zhao Yuxin, who had been doing research, also had to stop her progress and shouted to the vehicles behind: "Everyone get ready, that big guy is coming toward us! It's right in front!"

Feeling the ground trembling more and more violently, those responsible for driving operated the cannons on their vehicles, aiming at the position ahead. Because a large number of Blood-Grievance Mushroom Demons rushed out to block the road, plus it being the middle of the night, everyone could only adjust by feel.

Boom! Boom! Boom...

The distance between the two sides was continuously closing; just as they reached the first intersection, Zhao Yuxin shouted to everyone: "Everyone, fire!"

Boom!

Whoosh~

Hiss~

Bang!

All four vehicles fired simultaneously, shooting shells and various elemental attacks from their respective cannon muzzles. In an instant, the Odoba Demon Tree was knocked back repeatedly by these attacks, with wood chips continuously falling from its body.

After the first strike succeeded, the group immediately turned right together, preparing to shake off this annoying big guy.

When the Odoba Demon Tree steadied its form and looked back at the position where Zhu Zhiquan and the others had been, it found only the Blood-Grievance Mushroom Demons that had been crushed into pulp, and it was so angry that it kept smashing the ruins of the high-rise buildings beside it.

Swish swish swish~

Snap snap snap~

The sudden attack caused the Odoba Demon Tree to emit a dull low moan, and as soon as it turned around, it saw a group of City Flower Demons mocking it in various ways.

"Roar!"

The Odoba Demon Tree let out a roar, and the City Flower Demons immediately flew to the left along the road. Immediately after, the Odoba Demon Tree began tearing up the ruins, pursuing this group of annoying guys in a straight line.

Seeing the Odoba Demon Tree chasing them again, the City Flower Demons began to follow the Empress's orders and lead it toward Zhu Zhiquan and the others.

Such a large commotion naturally could not be hidden from Zhu Zhiquan and the others, and even less so from Zhao Yuxin's Bat Wing Ear; she immediately shouted to the people behind: "The Blood-Chain Flower Empress wants to borrow a knife to kill, she wants to use the Odoba Demon Tree's hand to eliminate us!"

Zhang Moxin viciously slammed the table, "Damn Flower Empress! Always using such underhanded tricks; if she dares to show herself, I will definitely blow her head off!"

Huang Jing drove over a Blood-Grievance Mushroom Demon and said: "Then what do we do now? We can't keep being chased by this thing toward the lake; if there's some powerful monster there, we won't be able to handle it!"

Zhao Yuxin: "They can lead it so accurately, there must be a City Flower Demon following us; I can find the City Flower Demon that has been following us behind, and then kill it."

Liu Yuchang: "No, that only treats the symptoms but not the root cause; the best way is to find their Empress. Only by killing that Empress who is hiding in who-knows-where can we have time to rest."

Li Yue: "The problem is, that damn Empress is like a thief; how are we supposed to find her?"

Liu Yuchang: "Help me catch a City Flower Demon, I have a way to find that Empress."

"Simple!" Zhang Moxin transformed a pair of wings behind her back, and then a sonic boom arrived, causing the glass and aged steel bars on the surrounding ruins to shatter and break, resulting in a small-scale collapse of the ruins.

When these buildings just started to collapse, Zhang Moxin had already caught a City Flower Demon near the Odoba Demon Tree, incidentally slapped the Odoba Demon Tree, and returned before the sound completely dissipated.

"Here." Zhang Moxin stood on the roof of Chen Ligang and Liu Yuchang's vehicle, then squatted down and handed the retching City Flower Demon to Liu Yuchang.

"Your speed is too fast! Next time, can you stay a little higher off the ground before flying at this speed? You've given me such a bad case of tinnitus!" Liu Yuchang grumbled as he took the City Flower Demon and told everyone to stop and protect him.

The group immediately formed a formation, shielding their tricycles in the middle, and killed every Blood-Grievance Mushroom Demon that approached.

Zhu Zhiquan and Chen Ligang, who were skilled at or rather enjoyed melee combat, got out of their vehicles directly, took their own weapons, and actively rushed into the monster swarm to slaughter in all directions.

Zhao Yuxin stroked Xuebao's head and instructed: "Xuebao, you sit in the driver's seat to replace Ajiu, then aim the Vehicle-mounted Vortex Cannon at full power toward the back, understand?"

Liu Yuchang entered the carriage, took out a needle, and pricked the City Flower Demon; then, with one hand, he formed a seal and wrote several characters on this flower demon, and finally took out a square lantern and placed it inside.

Afterward, this lantern was lit, and a statue resembling a City Flower Demon grew on the top, with one finger pointing in the direction in front of it.

Liu Yuchang tried rotating the lantern half a turn, but the statue on top kept pointing in the original direction.

Liu Yuchang nodded with satisfaction, carried this lantern out of the carriage, and shouted: "Is there any warrior who will go to slay the Demon Empress?"

Zhu Zhiquan, Chen Ligang, and Li Yue all leaned over; at the same time, the Odoba Demon Tree, led by other City Flower Demons, also arrived in front of them.

However, as soon as it appeared, it was hit in both eyes by the cannon muzzles of Huang Jing and Zhang Mofeng simultaneously, and then Xuebao controlled the Vehicle-mounted Vortex Cannon to shatter its knees.

"Roar~"

Boom!!!

The Odoba Demon Tree crashed to the ground, crushing several high-rise buildings and kicking up a large amount of dust.

After resolving the Odoba Demon Tree, Chen Ligang struck his twin hammers together hard and said: "Pick me, this morning I fought her halfway and she ran away; tonight, no matter what, I must slaughter this old fox!"

Li Yue turned her head coldly and said: "Brother Chen, do you mean only one person can go? Just now your teammate didn't seem to say that only one person could go."

Afterward, Liu Yuchang looked at Zhu Zhiquan, expecting him to say something, but Zhu Zhiquan just looked at him coldly without saying a word.

This made Liu Yuchang a bit awkward, and he asked: "Uh, brother, do you have any pre-battle trash talk to say?"

Zhu Zhiquan: "............"

"You'd be better off asking me than him!" At this time, Zhao Yuxin ran over, leaned against Zhu Zhiquan, and said: "Let him go; both his profession and his talent restrain that Empress."

"Restrain? How much does it restrain?" Chen Ligang couldn't help but ask curiously, "How about you add me as a friend, brother, and then send me your attributes, how about that?"

Zhu Zhiquan turned his head to look at him, then turned his head back again, doing nothing and saying nothing, successfully leaving Chen Ligang awkwardly frozen in place.
