Chapter 779: Attack [ Second Watch ]
A sharp claw suddenly stretched out from the edge of the crack.
A terrifying shadow covered with sharp blades emerged from the crack. The Bloodhound whimpered in fear and ran away.
The sinister figure was Dean. He slowly climbed out of the metal ball. Every time he climbed out, he couldn’t help but cough. Blood splattered on the ground. He was in so much pain that he slightly grinned, he dragged his body out of the metal ball. He turned over and lay on the ground. He was gasping for breath.
The drowsiness hit him. He struggled to open his eyes and rest for a moment. He got up from the ground. His body was shaking and several sharp blades on his back were broken. They stabbed into his body and caused a lot of injuries, the biggest injury was caused by a piece of metal in his chest. It pierced through his enchanted shell and stuck on his ribs. He was bleeding non-stop. Fortunately he had entered the metal ball and used his magic body, otherwise, this piece of metal would have been more than just stuck in his ribs. It might have pierced through his chest and killed him on the spot.
He took in a cold breath to relieve the burning pain on his body. He looked up at the direction of the explosion in the distance, and a trace of fear appeared in his eyes. He didn’t expect the destructive power of the explosion on Mount Utopia to be so terrifying, when he activated the explosive device, he had already sunk into the protective cabin below on his throne. This protective cabin was made of tungsten steel and was extremely tough. However, it was pierced through by the shockwaves of the explosion and penetrated into the aftershock, it almost took half of his life. One had to know that at that time, he was still in the state of full protection of his demon body. If he were to be hit by the explosion without even realizing it, he did not dare to imagine what kind of outcome he would have.
He thought of the three stooped old men. At the last moment when he sank, other than the stooped old man breaking free from the electric current, the fatty and the other burly man seemed to still be in the state of paralysis from the electric shock.
It was almost impossible to make a defensive reaction in that state. Their consciousness was stiff, and even if they woke up in time, it would be difficult for them to react.
Moreover, the power of the explosion of the gunpowder in Mount Wutuo had exceeded his expectations. He had thought that it would be good enough to inflict serious injuries on the three of them, but judging from the current situation, the chances of the three of them surviving were less than 10% !
He had originally intended to expose the death of the black-robed youth to the stooped old man in order to infuriate him and make him chase after him. Then, he would lead him to the second base.., the wind and solar power stations there were twice as many as here, and the explosives stored there were more than three times as many as here. There was a high chance of killing the stooped old man, but from the current situation.., there was probably no need for that anymore.
Now that he thought about it, he still felt a lingering fear. After all, he was not an explosives expert, so his estimation of explosives was not that accurate. Especially with such a large amount of explosives, even a professional explosives expert.., might not be able to estimate how much damage it could cause. After all, there were no advanced instruments from the old era here, so they could evaluate the specific data.
If there were more explosives in the mountain or if he didn’t prepare the tungsten steel protective cabin, he would have died in the explosion and died together with the three intruders.
Fortunately, such an accident didn’t happen. Otherwise, he would have wanted to cry but no tears would have come out.
Dudian looked at the distant explosion that was gradually subsiding. He slowly stood up. His muscles pulled the metal plate on his chest. He slightly bared his teeth. His body’s demonization was lifted and he returned to human appearance, he raised his hand to cover the huge metal piece that was stuck in his chest. He pulled it out. Puff! He felt a sharp tearing pain. He almost cried out in pain.
Fortunately, the intense pain was only temporary. He clenched his teeth and controlled the blood flow in his body. He stopped the blood flow in his chest. He felt as if his chest was being burned by a flame.
However, he had experienced this kind of intense pain many times. He took a few deep breaths to get used to it.
He dragged his feet and walked in the direction of Mount Utopia. His pupils entered the clairvoyance state as he searched for the figures of the three intruders. Although the power of the explosion was enough to kill them, he did not see their corpses, however, he could not relax just like that.
The explosion came very suddenly and ended very quickly. The gunpowder was burned out and the curtain fell in an instant. There were no mountains in the Utoto Mountain. There was only smoke and dust rising like a high mountain, there was a faint bloody flame coming out of it. It looked terrifying.
Dudian walked to the square in front of the mountain. His eyes penetrated through the thick fog. He saw the destructive traces of the terrible explosion. The area around Utoto Mountain was completely sunken, both the square and the castle-like buildings were razed to the ground. The streets more than 200 meters away were in a mess. The roads were full of rubble and thick dust. There were passers-by who were screaming on the ground.
Dudian’s scalp went numb. Although he was standing on the ground but he could picture the whole Utoto mountain completely disappearing. The ground at the foot of the mountain had collapsed into a huge crater, smoke was emitted from the soil. The land had been baptized by the explosives. It was charred black as if human skin had been burnt.
There was nothing left except for the crater.
Many buildings, temples, laboratories and the Goddess Monument were gone. It seemed that they had never existed.
It was the first time that Dudian had witnessed such terrible destruction. The first thought that came to his mind was that the world had activated nuclear weapons in the old era. Black gunpowder alone had such a terrifying effect. No wonder after the nuclear explosion.., there was no peaceful place in the world. It was like the ruins outside the giant wall. After more than 300 years the nuclear radiation in the air was still silently attacking the survivors’bodies.
He took a deep breath and looked around. It was very likely that the three of them were blown away and landed in a distant place.
He activated his magic wings and rushed into the thick smoke. He squinted his eyes and looked around. At the same time he was alert to the surroundings in case of a sneak attack. Four to five minutes later, Dudian found a figure with a limited heat source on the west side of the mountain. He rushed over and saw the figure lying in the rubble, it was the old man!
At the moment the old man seemed to have fainted. His body was covered with scars. There were large and small stones and metal pieces embedded in his body. One of his legs was broken and his hair was burnt black.
Dudian’s eyes lit up as he looked at the old man. He took out his dagger and threw it at the old man’s throat.
The dagger stabbed into his throat and was blocked by the magic scale on his neck.
Dudian saw that the old man didn’t wake up. He wasn’t sure if he was playing dead. He approached the old man in doubt. The old man’s body was deeply demonized. His broken limbs were restored as he activated the magic body again, when he was close to a certain distance, he suddenly swooped down and cut the old man’s body.
