192: Chapter 192 The Divine City Descends from the Sky, Smashing and Killing a Fifth-Order Rank
Outside the panoramic window, broken mechanical star rings hung in the sky.
The ground was a brownish-red wasteland, and in the distance, crystalline mountain ranges pierced the earth, rising over a thousand meters high.
The violent energy in the air caused fine sparks to constantly ignite on the surface of the shields.
Shen Wanbing quickly read the data.
"Environmental gravity is three times normal."
"The air is breathable, but energy radiation exceeds safety limits."
"Ordinary survivors will suffer organ failure within three minutes of leaving the ecological dome."
"Vehicle shield depletion rate has doubled."
Jiang Jiuyou was just about to adjust their orientation when a red warning suddenly popped up on the panel.
"There is a high-energy lifeform below!"
Mio also saw it.
"We are falling right on its face!"
The dust clouds beneath the Floating City were torn apart.
Below, a Crystal-Armored Earth Dragon over a hundred meters long was lifting its head.
Most of its body was buried in the wasteland, the crystals on its back stood up in rows, and its skull was as thick as a moving layer of rock.
At this moment, it had its massive maw open, preparing to swallow a convoy of local survivors.
That convoy consisted of only a dozen or so dilapidated combat vehicles, with yellow flags stuck to their roofs, and they had been forced to the edge of a crystal canyon.
The convoy channel was accidentally patched into public communication.
"We're done for!"
"That Crystal-Armored Earth Dragon is a Tier 5 Advanced! We can't escape!"
"Wait... what is that in the sky?"
"A city?"
"Who has a city that falls from the sky!"
The Crystal-Armored Earth Dragon also discovered the shadow above its head.
It instinctively closed its giant maw, and the crystal armor on its back emitted an earthy yellow glow as it tried to burrow underground.
Jiang Jiuyou immediately pulled up.
"Chen Chen, the impact angle is too dangerous!"
"If the bottom is damaged, the dock interface will break!"
Mio shouted along.
"This is a Tier 5 Advanced local behemoth! Its crystal armor is very thick! Don't use my ship as a hammer!"
Chen Chen looked at the massive crystal skull below, a hint of excitement appearing in his eyes.
Running into a Tier 5 Advanced right after crossing over.
This Tier 3 map is really polite.
"Decelerate?"
Jiang Jiuyou: "It's best to deviate by twenty degrees!"
Chen Chen raised his hand, and a 25x Gravity Domain spread out toward the bottom of the Floating City.
The descent speed of the entire Sea-Air Composite Fortress surged once again.
"Deviate, for what?"
"A cushion delivered right to our doorstep."
"Smash it."
Mio clutched her head in the control room.
"This lord of yours is truly sick!"
Su Xiaoqi crawled to the window, her eyes shining in a frightening way.
"Such big meat!"
Shen Wanxing had just climbed up, only to be pressed back into her blanket by the downward pressure.
"Chen Chen! Did you forget to hit the brakes again!"
Blood Rose grabbed the handrail, her red straps clinging to her body, and cursed through gritted teeth.
"This man's driving is truly lethal."
The Crystal-Armored Earth Dragon roared.
The crystal spikes on its back lit up in unison, and the wasteland ground rose up into an armor layer, trying to forcefully withstand this behemoth falling from the sky.
Chen Chen inserted the Space-Shattering Gravity Anti-Ship Sword into the fixing slot on the roof.
"Jiang Jiuyou, Firepower Overload all remaining nodes, focus them all on the bottom."
Jiang Jiuyou reacted extremely quickly.
"Sea Scale bottom secondary cannons, volley fire at ground level!"
Mio: "We're already smashing its face, and you're still adding cannon fire?"
Jiang Jiuyou: "Shut up, fire."
Blue and white pulses fell ahead of time, shattering the outer crystal shield on top of the Crystal-Armored Earth Dragon's head.
The next instant.
The Floating City, Sea Scale, and Ghost Fortress, carrying the residual kinetic energy from the cross-border jump and the 25x gravity boost, slammed down head-on.
Boom!
The brownish-red wasteland was crushed into a giant crater.
The Crystal-Armored Earth Dragon's skull cracked on the spot.
Green blood sprayed dozens of meters high, only to be mostly vaporized by the shields at the bottom of the city.
The Tier 5 Advanced behemoth didn't even manage to let out a full scream before its neck snapped downwards, and its massive body twitched on the ground a few times before going completely still.
The entire local survivor convoy stopped in place.
Someone fell off a car roof and couldn't get up for a long time.
A thin man wearing goggles looked up at the dark gold city pressing down on the behemoth's corpse, his lips trembling.
"This... which Royal Court's war fortress is this?"
The captain next to him had a dry throat.
"Royal Court, my ass."
"Since when do Royal Courts start by smashing monsters with a city?"
Inside the city.
System prompts popped up frantically.
[Leapfrog kill of a Tier 5 Advanced Crystal-Armored Earth Dragon.]
[Tyrant Totem experience extraction triggered.]
[Host obtained massive experience.]
[Level increased to 31.]
[Level increased to 32.]
[Level increased to 33.]
[Level increased to 34.]
[Level increased to 35.]
A golden rain of experience light flowed back through the Tyrant Totem to the entire city.
In the bottom hold, the laborers who had just been scared pale felt their bodies heating up one by one.
"I leveled up?"
"I leveled up too!"
"We can level up without doing anything?"
Iron Wall grinned broadly.
"No duh! Following the lord, we get soup even when lying down!"
"But if anyone causes trouble again, I'll smash your soup bowl!"
In the first-floor carriage, Su Xiaoqi had already set her sights on the mountain of meat outside.
She hugged her bone-white finger, drool almost dripping out.
"Big brother, how long can we eat this?"
Mio leaned against the main console, no longer wanting to argue.
"That is a Crystal-Armored Earth Dragon, not your family's New Year's stash."
Su Xiaoqi calculated seriously.
"New Year's stash isn't this big either."
Shen Wanxing finally crawled out from the blanket, her hair a mess.
She was just about to complain when the experience rewarded by the system surged into her body, leaving her stunned.
"I... I leveled up too?"
Shen Wanbing leaned against the console, her long wavy hair covering half her face, her breathing not yet fully steady, but she immediately pulled up a new map scan.
"Don't relax."
"This Crystal-Armored Earth Dragon was originally preying on the local convoy."
"Where there are living people, there are factions."
Jiang Jiuyou took over the external communication and spoke coldly.
"The convoy below is attempting to connect to the channel."
Chen Chen jumped back from the roof to the Ghost Fortress and brushed the dust off his coat.
"Connect."
There was a burst of static in the communication.
Then, the voice of the thin man with goggles came through, trembling with nervousness.
"Heavens... Great ones in the sky."
"We are the 9th Exile Convoy of the Desolate Rock Realm."
"Thank you for crushing the Crystal-Armored Earth Dragon."
"But... you had better leave immediately."
Chen Chen raised his head.
"Reason."
The other side was silent for two seconds.
"The Crystal-Armored Earth Dragon is a hunting beast raised by Meteor Crystal City."
"It has a tracking bug inside its body."
"You just crushed it, and the Meteor Crystal City enforcement team has already received the signal."
Jiang Jiuyou immediately switched to Radar.
Thirty kilometers away, twelve high-speed moving light spots appeared in the brownish-red dust.
Each one was Tier 5.
Shen Wanbing added.
"There is an even stronger one behind them."
Mio looked at the data, her projection tense.
"A Tier 5 Peak vehicle."
The voice of the thin man with goggles lowered further.
"They will hang the beast-slayer on the crystal tower."
"Your city... is too conspicuous."
Chen Chen looked at the twelve light spots approaching on the Radar and casually drew the Space-Shattering Gravity Anti-Ship Sword.
"Jiang Jiuyou."
Jiang Jiuyou had already sat back at the auxiliary command console.
"Fire control connected."
Chen Chen pushed open the car door and walked out.
"The first batch of guests for the new map has arrived."
"Have them line up."
