Evolution Begins with Elemental Domination
Chapter 297: Chapter 151: The Glory of Victory Belongs to Dongfu City
Dawn.
The slaughter was endless.
BOOM!
BOOM!
Another volley of artillery shells tore through the morning mist, their deadly parabolic arcs plunging deep into the undead front lines.
Dongfu City’s artillery positions had now boldly advanced two hundred meters outside the city walls. Relying on the dual protection of the Order Prism and the Earth Listening Skill, the entire artillery line was as steady as a boulder, pushing forward step by step.
However, the Dark Undead Calamity was not one to simply wait for death.
Swarms of Black Nether Crows descended like a cloud of ink, shrieking as they dove in for the attack. But as soon as they came within tens of meters of the position’s perimeter, they were violently seized by rippling waves of darkness. In an instant, they were all falling from the sky, screaming like kites with their strings cut.
The ground below was not peaceful, either.
Corpse Puppets and Earth-digging Vengeful Spirits attempting to launch surprise attacks by burrowing were also perceived and captured by top-tier earth-type Mages. With a surge of churning mud, the numerous underground monsters were spewed out onto the surface.
These specialists in the earth element basically held the front lines. Besides using Earth Listening for detection, they could also pave a path through the scorched, muddy earth ahead. When faced with incoming attacks during an exchange of fire, they could instantly raise an earth wall to block the way.
With a combo of a Lv7 Earth Wall Skill and Strengthening Skill, the wall—already known for its thickness and solidity—stood before them, and one could only imagine how much damage it could block.
You could say that every step forward for the artillery positions was built upon a multi-layered perception network and absolute fire suppression. It was a stiflingly steady advance.
Of course, it wasn’t a completely lossless process.
During a lull between volleys, a Skeleton Giant suddenly charged in, using a Shadow Assault.
With a single charge, it shattered the obstacles in front of it.
The next instant, its Giant Sword rose high and crashed down with the force of ten thousand tons. A terrifying deathly aura of Annihilation exploded outward like a ring-shaped storm. Many of the surrounding personnel turned into dried corpses and collapsed, while eight heavy Rune cannons shattered on the spot.
Metal twisted like paper, the cannon barrels melting into red-hot scrap.
In a single moment, a bloody hole had been punched through the line.
But almost as soon as the Giant Sword landed, countless Light Element Magic attacks and Magic Missiles submerged the Skeleton Giant’s figure. It barely lasted three seconds before it was swiftly blasted apart.
This was a microcosm of the main battlefield.
On one side was the vast and majestic army of Dongfu City.
On the other was the army of skeletons, quite literally... lifeless. In the rear, the Olan People saw that the situation was turning against them. Remembering yesterday’s disastrous defeat, they were disheartened. Most of them hesitated, choosing to wait and see.
Some simply pulled out and left.
And this seemingly vast distance was more than enough for snipers on both sides to fire without restraint.
It was basically a lottery, all down to luck.
This was the grand stage where the Olan People, with their superiority in firearms, could truly shine.
However, the flashes of light and aftershocks that periodically erupted from their rear kept their nerves on edge, making them jump at every shadow.
Someone was specifically targeting and eliminating exposed snipers.
And that wasn’t all.
BOOM!
A Teleportation Gate suddenly collapsed. An out-of-control, chaotic storm of spatial energy erupted, and the distorted turbulence, carrying blades of space, completely obliterated everyone in the vicinity.
Some who had just arrived to take their positions didn’t even have time to react before their lives were extinguished in the wave of spatial Annihilation.
The elusive Su Chen departed gracefully. Relying on the Aurora Shadow Technique, he could escape any pursuit with impunity.
Even when faced with a spatial blockade, his supreme skill would give him the courage to attempt a breakthrough.
If he didn’t succeed the first time, he would just try again.
He personally enjoyed repeatedly challenging his limits.
One thing was certain: the Lorentz Conglomerate hadn’t managed to excavate enough Magic Guide Hub Crystal Pillars from the ruins of Elemental City. Only five Teleportation Gates were protected.
The rest of the Teleportation Gates were spatially locked using either Order Prisms or the Holy Sanctuary Anchor Technique.
The latter was a major new discovery.
It also belonged to the Light Element Rune category.
Its main purpose was clearly to prevent coordinate shifts and suppress the formation of wrinkles in real space.
Within this widespread, high-frequency Holy Light harmonic, not only were displacement and Spatial Teleportation Runes unusable, but even he had to wait for the light to fade before he could move again.
’How interesting.’
This was Su Chen’s assessment. The Holy Light Judge had managed to briefly trap him after he had killed several snipers.
But unfortunately for her,
relying on his Water Mirror Screen and a suddenly summoned Coronal Guard, he still managed to escape. He even politely returned the many Magic attacks that had come for him during the chaotic battle.
When her allies crumbled in a disorderly rout, he saw an opening and pressed his attack instead of retreating. After slaughtering his way through their formation, the Judge was only able to escape unscathed with the help of her comrades.
This was what made the situation so utterly desperate.
They could trap him, but they couldn’t break through his defenses.
And if they weren’t careful, he would turn the tables and kill them instead.
"This number one from Dongfu City is basically a hexagonal Warrior. He’s mastered All Attributes, excels in every area, and has combat instincts that border on precognition. I have no idea what he did before he transmigrated." As the dispatched military observer, this iron-blooded colonel was also keen on joining forces with Colonel Griffin and the others to hunt down the Grand Elemental Master.
Most people are a jack of all trades, master of none.
But this guy couldn’t even be described as a master of all trades. He was simply otherworldly, far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
The experience of successfully executing a ghost agent couldn’t be applied to him.
Instead, it had gotten the Three-Star Spirit Element Mage in charge of detection for this hunting squad killed, and they couldn’t even save the numerous Lv7 Spirit Element Runes he dropped.
"The only way to deal with this man is assassination. After all, he can’t go twenty-four hours without sleep. That’s a trick the Lorentz Conglomerate excels at, isn’t it? You’ve done it before." After aiming this sneer at Matel Lorenz, the stone-faced, cold-blooded Colonel Schmidt led his men straight through a Teleportation Gate and departed.
