Chapter 463 -464: Siege-Type Heavy Soul Cannon
When the five of them looked up, they found that the figures speeding away wore soft armor that shimmered green, making them appear as though a green breeze swept past them.
The sudden gust of wind filled the five with curiosity, their gazes locked on these newcomers, eager to see what they were up to.
Meanwhile, atop the Mountain City of the Black Corner Clan, the Array glowed intensely and a long humming sound rang in everyone’s ears.
“Over at the Black Corner Clan, they’ve already spotted us, the Array has been activated, and this is their alarm,” Yue Liqun said grimly, looking at the Mountain City above, where vibrant Soul Power glowed as if alive.
The flickering light symbolized that the defensive Array was fully activated, and the dazzling glow from the Array already told them that the city’s setup was anything but simple.
Wars between Soul Martial Artists typically saw the greatest casualties when attacking an Array.
If they were to assault forcefully, those Soul Martial Artists who approached the Array to attack would suffer heavy casualties because they were the ones directly clashing with the enemy at the very forefront.
Moreover, with an Array’s assistance, the defenders naturally had a significant advantage.
Even if they didn’t choose to fight head-on but opted to have an Array Master decrypt the Array, they still needed to protect the Array Master and create a safe environment for them to work.
At such a time, those guarding the Array could also suffer heavy losses.
After all, the enemy would not just let them decrypt the Array without mounting a fierce attack.
At this moment, in the massive Mountain City of the Black Corner Clan, the Black Corner Army was already prepared, with crimson tongues licking their lips as they quietly awaited the arrival of their enemy.
However, when they saw the approaching one hundred thousand-strong Blood Battle Army, they were all stunned.
Resources in the Four Clan Regions were scarce, so usually, the Four Clans they battled were equipped with poor Soul Devices.
But the equipment of this hundred thousand-strong army was so refined it drove them to envy and madness.
The Blood Battle Army that was advancing toward them suddenly stopped, puzzling them.
Not only them, but Yue Liqun and the other four also watched the demon-led Blood Battle Army suddenly halt and were somewhat perplexed. Why, out of the blue, had they stopped moving?
“Could it be that they are hesitating to fight?” Watching the group led by the demon remain motionless, Yue Liqun pondered before slowly speaking.
Lin Qian, standing next to him, popped a fruit into his mouth and turned to him, saying, “If the demon heard you say that, he would chop your head off with a single stroke.”
“Besides, it makes sense to wait for the Array to be blasted open before attacking. Rushing in now would just be sending ourselves to death.”
With that, he gestured for everyone to continue watching the front, “If you’re curious, just quietly watch and see, instead of talking nonsense and making a fool of yourself.”
After hearing Lin Qian’s words, the five looked forward again, still puzzled.
With the demon-led army stationary, what were they going to use to blast open the enemy’s Array?
Just then, they suddenly noticed that the figures in green had overtaken the demon’s team, holding some shimmering objects and fiercely smashing them against the mountainside of the Mountain City.
The object thrown out by the fierce wind was only palm-sized.
Yue Liqun and the others focused their eyes. With their realms, they could clearly see that the object thrown was a metallic disc, seeming unremarkable.
Not only them, but even the Black Corner Clan within the Mountain City chuckled when they saw the small metal disc thrown towards them. What use could throwing something like that have?
Moreover, the surface of the Mountain City was covered by an array. It was impossible to throw something into it.
While the Black Corner Clan thought so, the metal disc thrown by the fierce wind had already passed through the array barrier without hindrance and crashed against the mountain wall.
The sharp edges of the disc allowed it to embed itself deeply into the mountain wall, where it firmly stuck, unable to move.
Both the Black Corner Clan inside the Mountain City and the onlooking Yue Liqun and his four companions showed a trace of astonishment. They clearly hadn’t expected the metal disc to inexplicably ignore the array barrier and pass through.
Immediately after, faint lines of light began to appear on those discs, eroding into the array engraved on the rock walls of the Black Corner Country’s Mountain City.
The speed of the array virus’s erosion was extremely rapid. In the blink of an eye, it had moved from the metal disc, entering entirely into the array that protected the Mountain City of the Black Corner Clan. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
Once the virus had entered the array, its effect was immediate, no need for sneaky alterations.
Because, this time, the effect of the array virus was singular—to disrupt the entire array’s operation, causing the array to lose its stability.
In an instant, the originally solid array barrier, with its dazzling soul light, started to disperse erratically, its soul light flashing irregularly.
“This…” Seeing such changes occurring to the array of the Black Corner Clan’s city, how could they not realize that this was clearly related to the discs thrown by the azure figure?
The five of them turned their heads simultaneously, looking in the direction Lin Qian was in.
At this moment, Lin Qian was leisurely raising the cup in his hand, taking a sip, his face full of enjoyment.
“Your Majesty, what’s happening here?” Wang Qiongxing couldn’t contain his curiosity and hurriedly asked Lin Qian, wanting to know what exactly was happening.
Being an Array Master himself, he was deeply aware of the effect such an array would have in protecting a city, which is why his expression had been so distressed earlier.
Now, just by throwing out something that looked like metallic discs, Lin Qian had caused the array to start disarraying.
Such magical methods were unheard of by them.
“This object is called an array virus. Once it is used, it can directly invade the opponent’s array and, according to the preset, sabotage the array,” Lin Qian explained with a smile, looking ahead as he saw the eager look in Wang Qiongxing’s eyes.
“Since the array is now in disarray, the moment has come to completely shatter the array!” As Lin Qian spoke, all five of them looked forward.
By then, they had also noticed that the situation ahead had changed again, though they couldn’t understand it.
“Your Majesty, what is that rapidly constructing thing?” Pointing ahead, Yue Liqun also asked curiously.
“That? It’s called a heavy soul cannon!”
