Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 782: Chapter 365 Jing Family Palace_2

“Not bad, if people with a Great Destiny couldn’t be killed, wouldn’t this world fall into chaos?” an official commented with a laugh.

“It can only be said that Ye Han was too late. If Ye Han had died sooner, he would not have activated the War Immortal Heavenly Palace, nor would he have summoned the Calamity,” a Mo Family stronger remarked.

“That’s the principle,” a forty-something official captain spoke up. “If I hear anyone using this as a topic to criticize the Night General again, it would be disrespectful to my Huo family.” He was from the Huo family of the Lava Mine City… and the Amber King was surnamed Huo!

Everybody silently nodded, tacitly skipping over this topic.

“Currently, we can only wait for the investigation results. Before that, everyone, please get ready. We will gather more scattered powerhouses and form two legions to attack two anchor points,” Yin Fire stated.

“Do we still have reinforcements?” a Family Spiritual Ability User asked.

“Hmph, don’t forget, the Immortal Palace opens right next to the Lava Mine City!” the captain surnamed Huo laughed lightly. “And our Giant City is the largest arsenal! Let those Calamities see what a fucking steel torrent is!”

Meanwhile, at the exit of the Immortal Palace.

The official captain of the Netherworld Path, having endured hardships, finally reached the entrance and sent out the information.

A few minutes later.

Lava Mine City entered first level combat readiness!

The entire Giant City, as if awakened by an invisible force, suddenly burst into vibrant life.

Inside the factory district, the previously silent machines roared to life in an instant, the fires blazing brightly, illuminating the night sky.

The production lines operated at a stunning speed, with workers bustling and moving in an orderly manner.

The city functioned like a precisely running machine, every component activated at this moment, collectively striving for the impending challenge.

At the same time, the city’s armed forces received orders for emergency conscription.

These previously scattered armed forces quickly assembled.

Armor intended for other Giant Cities was urgently redirected back.

These armors, one of Lava Mine City’s most precious defensive resources, undoubtedly added a solid layer of protection to the city.

Workers swiftly acted, distributing these heavy armors to various Iron Guards in preparation, skillfully helping them don their battle armor to ensure they could be thrown into battle at a moment’s notice.

All the reservists displayed their professionalism at this critical time, quickly assembling and orderly making their last preparations.

The entire Lava Mine City transformed into a massive war machine at this moment, all components working in close coordination.

All major divisions mobilized urgently, and dangerous Taboo Items were taken from the Black Prison. Great Families dispatched their elite forces.

When war arrived, Lava Mine City revealed its most ferocious tusks.

Eighty thousand Border Iron Guards stood ready, and five hundred thousand Field Army troops were prepared. Millions of reservists were also fully armed.

At the same time, the three Border Cities were also revived at this moment. Numerous legions were awakened to guard against threats from the Forbidden Zone.

…

Compared to this, the inside of the Immortal Palace was much calmer.

Inside the base, people had dispersed to rest and wait for news from the anchor points.

Yin Fire found Li Yelai, learning about Yun Yue’s situation with a somewhat grim expression.

“Alas, we can only get through this Calamity before making plans. At least for now, the Wilderness Ranger seems to have no ill intentions towards humans. They are also doubtful of your identity,” Yin Fire sighed.

Li Yelai nodded and then asked, “What about the Wilderness Rangers inside the base?”

“They haven’t returned, probably acting on their own,” Yin Fire replied. “Among them is a Divine Chosen, which, for us, is still good news.”

“The Master of Green Flames…” Li Yelai recalled the towering figure he had once seen. “Could he be an enemy?”

“For now, no. But how can we trust a Chaos Evil God?” Yin Fire stated.

Li Yelai nodded. According to the church’s records, the Master of Green Flames had ignited several worlds. Some of the fleeing civilizations became the present-day Forbidden Zone civilizations. Such a force from Chaos indeed warranted caution.

“Don’t think too much, just get through this for now,” Yin Fire patted Li Yelai on the shoulder, then asked, “by the way, how did you destroy the Heavenly Palace?”

“I was affected by an enhanced curse at that time…” Li Yelai briefly explained the situation.

After pondering for a moment, Yin Fire said, “Damn, crushed by Calamity? It seems like even the Heavenly Palace couldn’t withstand your curse. This might serve as a way for you to destroy anchor points, but of course, it will be extremely dangerous. You must be cautious using it… don’t summon some big monster.”

Then, Yin Fire glanced at the doll with the helmet in the distance and said, “Alright, go rest for now. The doll’s condition seems a bit unusual, you need to be careful.”

“I know…”

Late at night, inside the room.

Li Yelai watched the girl sleeping beside him, gently stroking her smooth back.

He couldn’t imagine why she had become so unfamiliar at that time…

Would that voice still appear?

Would she still be affected by that voice?

Li Yelai thought to himself but suddenly heard the girl beside him whispering.

“Such insolence, daring to defile my flesh!”

The voice wasn’t loud, but it was exceptionally commanding.

Familiar yet strange, the voice startled Li Yelai.

Looking up, the girl was still in her deep sleep.

“Heh, you only dare to speak when Xiao He is asleep?” Li Yelai snorted coldly, pulling the girl into his embrace.

“Defile the flesh? Ridiculous, Xin He is my partner, our intimacy is none of your business, you demon!”

This drew a suppressed angry response, as if Li Yelai had occupied her body.

“I advise you to hide forever, otherwise, I will definitely kill you.” Li Yelai whispered a warning, kissing the girl’s earlobe.

This caused the girl to open her drowsy eyes in confusion, seemingly blurry from sleep, pecked Li Yelai’s mouth twice, and then fell asleep again.

Afterward, that voice disappeared.

As dawn gradually approached, the two investigation teams returned to the base one after another.

They brought back two pieces of news.

The location of one of the anchor points had been found, indeed within a palace, and the white glowing branches were already several meters high. Currently, the team that stayed there was trying to conquer the palace and enter it.

This was undoubtedly good news. As long as the major troops moved out, so many powerful beings should surely be able to fully grasp and conquer the palace rules.

Then, it would be time to destroy the palace or the anchor point.

On the other direction… the news wasn’t so good.

“We followed the direction where the light column once appeared but were stopped by some kind of light screen near the approximate location,” the captain shook his head, “This invisible screen blocked our way, we tried to circle around, but were still blocked by the screen. That whole area was blocked by the screen, and the light column had appeared inside it!”

“Can you tell me the location?” Jing Lin suddenly asked, the captain pointed on the compiled map.

Jing Lin’s face turned rather unpleasant, “Damn, that’s the palace our Jing Family branch needs to conquer. Only Jing Family’s bloodline can enter that area!”

This made many people’s faces turn grim, only Jing Family members can enter? That meant the major troops were locked out as well.

“Can it be lifted?” someone asked.

“I don’t know, let me go there. Jing Family’s Main House should be within that area, they might know more, I could ask them to lift the restriction or join forces to destroy the anchor point!” Jing Lin quickly said.

Yin Fire’s eyes twinkled, “Good, now that the location is confirmed, let’s follow the plan and divide into two teams, heading to respective anchor points.”

“Night General, you go with Jing Lin to Jing Family Palace! If necessary, employ the last resort.”
