181: Chapter 181 Annihilation Cannon!
Late at night, on the rooftop terrace of the Shelter.
Tang Shiyun stood there alone, holding her ancient zither.
The moonlight spilled onto her, as if she were draped in a layer of silver gauze.
She was hesitating.
Seeing Lin Wanrou and her daughter working so hard to become stronger today, she was deeply moved.
And Lin Wanrou's direct confession gave her even more courage.
That's right, if you like someone, you should say it.
What's the point of hiding it?
"What are you thinking about?"
A familiar voice rang out.
Tang Shiyun turned around and saw Lin Yuan, who had appeared behind her without her knowing.
Under the moonlight, he was so handsome it felt unreal.
"I..."
Tang Shiyun took a deep breath:
"I have something to say to you."
"Speak."
"I..."
Her face flushed:
"I want to play a song for you."
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow.
Playing the zither in the middle of the night?
"Sure."
He sat down on a nearby lounge chair:
"I can't sleep anyway."
Tang Shiyun put down the ancient zither and bowed deeply to Lin Yuan:
"This song was written specifically for you."
"It's called..."
"《Love Under the Moon》."
She sat before the zither, her slender fingers gently touching the strings.
Zheng—
The first note rang out.
It was clear and moving, like the tinkling of a spring.
Then, the melody began to flow.
At times, it was passionate like a rushing river, and at other times, it was gentle like a spring breeze brushing against one's face.
But the most magical part was—
As the music played, Tang Shiyun's body began to dance.
She stood up, and the ancient zither hovered in the air, continuing to play automatically.
This was the ultimate application of her SS-Class Sound Superpower.
It was the perfect combination of music and dance.
The moonlight served as the backdrop, and the breeze as her companion.
Her dance movements were elegant and agile, perfectly synchronized with the music.
Her long hair fluttered, and her sleeves billowed.
She looked like a fairy from the Moon Palace, beautiful enough to take one's breath away.
Lin Yuan was stunned.
He had seen many beautiful women, but he had never seen a performance like this.
This was not just a dance; it was as if she were using her body to tell a story.
A story about love.
Gradually, the other goddesses were also attracted by the music and came to the terrace.
Ye Qingxue, Su Yuyan, Xia Bingli, Chu Yanran...
Everyone was shocked by this scene.
"So beautiful..."
Even the usually cold and aloof Ye Qingxue couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
The music gradually reached its climax.
Tang Shiyun's dance movements became increasingly intense.
She was expressing her own feelings.
From the stunning moment of their first meeting, to the sweetness of their time together, to the reluctance of parting...
Every note and every movement expressed her love.
Finally, the last note fell.
Tang Shiyun held her final pose—
One knee on the ground, one hand pressed to her chest, looking affectionately at Lin Yuan.
The whole place was silent.
Everyone was deeply shocked by this performance.
"Lin Yuan."
Tang Shiyun stood up and walked slowly toward him:
"This dance, this song, were all created for you."
"Because..."
She stopped in front of Lin Yuan and looked up into his eyes:
"I love you."
"From the moment you protected me without regard for yourself..."
"I fell in love with you."
"I know you have many excellent women around you."
"But I don't care."
"I just want..."
"To be your woman."
After speaking, she stood on her tiptoes and took the initiative to kiss Lin Yuan's lips.
The kiss under the moonlight was beautiful and pure.
Lin Yuan clearly saw that her loyalty had increased, changing from blue to green!
At the same time, another warm current surged into his heart.
【Ding! Detected a heartfelt confession from the goddess Tang Shiyun!】
【Affinity increased: Lv.1 → Lv.2!】
【Original item "Rocket Launcher" upgraded to "annihilation cannon"!】
【annihilation cannon: Can fire antimatter energy rounds, can flatten 500 meters in radius, 30-second charge time.】
Lin Yuan's eyes lit up.
annihilation cannon?
This was far stronger than a rocket launcher!
The other women watched this scene with complex feelings.
Another competitor had been added.
But they had to admit that Tang Shiyun's method of confession was indeed very special.
"Shiyun..."
Lin Yuan pushed her away gently and looked at her flushed face:
"Are you sure?"
"Following me might be very dangerous."
"I'm not afraid."
Tang Shiyun said firmly:
"Even if it's hell, I'm willing to walk it with you."
Lin Yuan's heart softened, and he reached out to gently stroke her cheek:
"Silly girl."
Tang Shiyun closed her eyes, enjoying his gentleness.
The moonlight spilled onto her exquisite face, making her look like a fairy descending to earth.
"Shiyun."
Lin Yuan suddenly leaned close to her ear, his hot breath making her tremble all over:
"Tonight... do you want to come to my room?"
Tang Shiyun's face instantly turned red to the tips of her ears.
She knew what that meant.
"I... I..."
She stammered, but couldn't say any words of refusal.
Because her heart had long since belonged to him.
"Wait for me tonight."
Lin Yuan nibbled gently on her ear.
Tang Shiyun almost went weak in the knees, leaning against his chest and panting.
This bad guy...
Just in this ambiguous atmosphere—
"Ahem."
Luo Qinghan's voice rang out:
"Sorry to interrupt."
"But I have something important to say."
Everyone looked at her.
Luo Qinghan's expression was very solemn:
"According to the intelligence I obtained..."
"In three days, the SSS-Class Beast King beneath Jiangcheng will awaken."
"It is called the Earth Abyss Demon Dragon."
"Once it wakes, all of Jiangcheng will be destroyed."
"Moreover..."
She paused:
"The Beast King will release special pheromones upon waking."
"All Evolved Beasts within a thousand miles will go berserk."
"Forming an unprecedented beast tide."
Everyone gasped.
SSS-Class Beast King...
Just hearing the name made it feel terrifying.
"Can we stop it?"
Su Yuyan asked.
"It's difficult."
Luo Qinghan shook her head:
"In my memory, Jiangcheng was eventually destroyed."
"There were fewer than a thousand survivors."
"And those who survived became slaves to other forces."
The atmosphere instantly became heavy.
Everyone looked at Lin Yuan.
This man was their greatest reliance.
"Three days..."
Lin Yuan pondered for a moment:
"Enough."
He looked at the women:
"From now on, everyone prepare for battle."
"I will use every means to increase your strength."
"Three days later..."
"Yes!"
The women replied in unison.
For the time that followed, the entire Shelter entered a state of frantic battle preparation.
But before starting the training, Lin Yuan decided to test the newly acquired annihilation cannon.
"Everyone step back."
Lin Yuan walked to the edge of the training ground and took out the sci-fi-looking annihilation cannon.
It was pitch black, with blue energy lines flickering on the barrel, looking like a weapon from the future.
"What is this?"
Su Yuyan asked curiously.
"A new toy."
Lin Yuan aimed at an abandoned building in the distance:
"Let me show you what true destruction is."
Hum—
The annihilation cannon began to charge, the blue light growing brighter and brighter.
A dangerous aura permeated the air.
30 seconds later.
Boom!!!
A dazzling beam of light shot out!
The next second—
That five-story building instantly disappeared.
It didn't collapse, and it didn't explode.
It was directly decomposed into its most basic particles!
Everything within a five-hundred-meter radius was reduced to nothingness!
A huge circular pit was left on the ground, its edges as smooth as a mirror.
"Holy..."
Even the cold and aloof Ye Qingxue couldn't help but curse.
This power... was too terrifying!
"If this hit an S-rank expert..."
Xia Bingli gulped:
"I'm afraid there wouldn't even be slag left, right?"
Lin Yuan put away the annihilation cannon with satisfaction.
With this powerful weapon, he had a bit more confidence in dealing with the SSS-Class Beast King.
"Alright, let's start training."
Lin Yuan took out all the available supplies.
d-rank energy mineral water, soul strengthening pill, gene healing potion, d-grade qilin meat...
As long as it could increase strength or restore one's state, it was provided.
Lin Yuan distributed the most suitable resources to each goddess.
Ye Qingxue took the soul strengthening pill and the d-grade qilin meat, then went into seclusion to break through.
Her Abyss of Death became more stable, and the power of darkness surged like a tide.
Chu Yanran continuously honed her power of destiny in actual combat.
Every time she sparred with Lin Yuan, she could more accurately perceive and interfere with her opponent's movement trajectory.
"Yuyan, we are both of the lightning element."
Lin Yuan personally guided Su Yuyan:
"Your control is still too rough; watch me demonstrate."
He compressed lightning into a ball the size of a fist, with terrifying energy contained within it.
Su Yuyan observed carefully and tried repeatedly.
Finally, after the fiftieth attempt, she successfully compressed a "Thunder Strike".
Xia Bingli's ice element Superpower also had a breakthrough.
She infused the power of cold ice into her entire body, forming an "Ice Crystal Armor".
It not only had amazing defensive power, but could also reflect physical attacks.
Tang Shiyun combined music with her Superpower.
Her singing could soothe the emotions of friendly forces and increase combat focus.
Although it wasn't a direct increase in combat power, the effect in chaotic battles was significant.
Everyone was becoming stronger in their own way.
And Lin Wanrou and her daughter were training with all their might.
They didn't want to hold anyone back in the great battle.
