95: Chapter 95 Death God's Blazing Annihilation Cannon!

250,000 hunting points!

Added to what he had previously saved up, Lu Yuan's current total points had reached an astonishing 280,000-plus.

Looking at the long string of numbers on the screen, Lu Yuan rubbed his hands together in excitement.

This was a sky-high fortune!

Once he entered a peaceful Service Area next time, he could definitely exchange this massive fortune at those high-level system terminals for countless items that would make people green with envy.

However, what made his heart race the most right now were those two epic-grade upgrade blueprints emitting a charming purple-gold glow.

Without any hesitation, Lu Yuan decisively opened his inventory.

"Use epic-grade weapon upgrade blueprints!"

[Ding! Epic-grade weapon upgrade blueprint detected. Please select the vehicle weapon you wish to upgrade!]

"Main cannon!"

Following Lu Yuan's command, countless upgrade branch paths instantly popped up on the system screen.

Lu Yuan stroked his chin, his gaze rapidly scanning these powerful upgrade paths.

Armor-piercing, venom, high-explosive, splitting...

The dazzling array of attributes made one's head spin.

Suddenly, his gaze locked firmly onto a dark red option at the very bottom of the list.

[Route selection: Annihilation!]

[Annihilation trait: Main cannon base attack power + 1000 points!]

[The damage caused by this route will completely ignore the target's race and life form, dealing equal damage to any wasteland creature!]

Lu Yuan's eyes lit up sharply.

Equal damage that ignores race and form!

This meant that even if the opponent was an abyss phantom with no physical form that was completely immune to physical attacks, or a spirit monster composed purely of energy.

In front of this shot, they would still have to obediently lose HP and take full damage!

"You're the one! Upgrade it for me!"

Lu Yuan slammed the confirm button.

A dazzling purple-gold beam of light instantly enveloped the turret of the Red Wolf Tank.

Armor reorganized, machinery roared.

A few seconds later, the main cannon, which was already overbearing, now had a layer of deep dark-gold inscriptions attached to its barrel, emitting a suffocating aura of death.

[Ding! Main cannon upgrade complete!]

[Current name: Death Gods Explosive Flame Annihilation Cannon!]

[Current base attack power: 2000 + 3500 (Soul Extraction bonus) + 20000 (Spiritual Leader talent bonus) = 25500 points!]

[Enhancement bonus multiplier: 350%!]

[Current armor penetration: 25%!]

[Attached special effects: Black Hole Traction, Otherworldly Flame that ignores physical laws, Soul Extraction, Annihilation.]

Looking at this luxury panel that was so flashy it was blinding, Lu Yuan couldn't help but frantically run the numbers in his head.

25500 points of base attack!

Multiplied by a 350% attack multiplier.

Combined with the 5x damage at full charge, and the 10x damage from Tyrants Rage!

"25500 multiplied by 3.5, then multiplied by 5, multiplied by 10..."

The more Lu Yuan calculated, the more twisted the curve of his mouth became.

"4,462,500!"

"A single-shot limit damage of over 4.4 million!"

This wasn't firing a cannon, it was firing a world-destroying tactical nuke!

Lu Yuan took a deep breath, struck while the iron was hot, and opened the guild's internal contribution points store.

He bought dozens of primary weapon upgrade blueprints in one go and, without caring about anything else, dumped them all into the main cannon's charging system.

Brute force creates miracles.

Under the stacking of a massive number of blueprints, the charging cooldown of the Death Gods Explosive Flame Annihilation Cannon shrank crazily.

When he saw [Full charge time required: 5 seconds] displayed on the panel.

Lu Yuan smiled with satisfaction.

A 4.4 million damage nuke every 5 seconds; with this firepower, even a god would have to take two slaps before leaving.

"Next, it's time for the engine."

Lu Yuan rubbed his hands and turned his gaze to that epic-grade engine upgrade blueprint.

After clicking to use it, several special engine upgrade plans popped up on the screen.

When Lu Yuan's gaze fell on an option called [V-200 Energy Storage Engine], he froze instantly.

[V-200 Energy Storage Engine]

[Core function: Weapon firing recoil is forcibly reduced to 0!]

[All generated recoil will be perfectly absorbed by the engine and 100% converted into engine power storage!]

"Holy crap!"

Lu Yuan jumped up directly from the driver's seat.

"Convert recoil into power? Doesn't that mean I'll have infinite energy from now on?!"

In fact, in the eyes of other players, this engine was absolute trash.

Because the recoil from ordinary vehicles' weapons couldn't even light up a headlight with the converted energy; it was purely useless.

But Lu Yuan was different!

The recoil of his main cannon was already outrageously extreme.

If he activated [Tyrants Rage], that would be a terrifying 20x kinetic energy conversion!

He already relied on this recoil as a thruster to travel.

Now with this engine, that violent recoil would directly transform into the tank's endless fuel!

A perfect fit!

It was simply a god-tier component tailor-made for the Red Wolf Tank!

"Activate immediately! Upgrade!"

[Ding! Upgrade successful!]

[Materials consumed: metal block x100,000 (Remaining: 900,000)]

[Materials consumed: high-level circuit board x1000 (Remaining: 8,500)]

[Materials consumed: high-energy crystal x50 (Remaining: 450)]

[Current engine: V-200 Energy Storage Engine (Epic Grade)!]

[Current maximum load: 500 tons!]

[Current maximum flat-ground speed: 800 km/h!]

Looking at the brand-new vehicle data, Lu Yuan waved his hand with immense pride.

"Everyone, listen up, move out!"

Accompanied by earth-shattering roars, over a hundred thousand vehicles painted with red lacquer drove majestically into the depths of the Endless Bloody Wilderness.

In the following days.

The Red Wolf Army was like an unstoppable red torrent.

Wherever they passed, monsters were crushed to pieces, and Red Name thugs trying to rob or block the road would run at the mere sound of them, but they were still caught and turned into cannon fodder.

During the day, sand filled the sky, and steel tracks ruthlessly crushed withered bones.

At night, artillery fire filled the sky, and the dark red glow of the Death Gods Explosive Flame illuminated the entire night sky.

Until three days later.

The massive convoy finally slowed to a stop.

The system panel showed they had reached the 5,000-kilometer node of the Endless Bloody Wilderness.

Lu Yuan pushed open the hatch, stood on the tall turret, and picked up binoculars to look into the distance.

The terrain ahead had undergone a earth-shattering change.

The originally boundless desolate wasteland had actually come to an abrupt end here.

In its place were endless black oceans on both the left and right sides!

Strong winds whipped up murky giant waves, slamming heavily against the edge of the road.

The wide road beneath their feet was like a lone blade splitting the ocean, extending straight into the depths of the horizon.

And in the very center of the road, a black Steel Fortress towering into the clouds stood prominently!

This fortress was like a steel behemoth stuck firmly in a throat-like thoroughfare, completely cutting off the entire road.

Above the high walls, defensive turrets were densely packed.

Below the high walls, huge metal obstacles lay across the perimeter of the fortress.

The sky was covered by thick, lead-gray clouds, and the sea breeze carrying cold water vapor rushed towards them, so oppressive that it made it hard to breathe.

The entire fortress was deathly silent, yet it exuded a heart-palpitating aura of slaughter.

Just then, a hurried voice message from Lin Zihao popped up in the guild channel.

"Boss! Radar scans show that inside that Steel Fortress ahead, there is a large gathering of survivors!"

"The number is very large!"

Lu Yuan's eyes narrowed, and he instantly put away his lazy demeanor.

In this apocalyptic wasteland, having a large number of survivors huddled together in a stronghold meant it was definitely some kind of potential threat.

He grabbed the communicator, his voice deep and cold.

"Everyone, slow down and defend!"

"Prepare for battle!"

After saying that, he didn't hesitate to press the red button on the console.

The thick Death Gods Explosive Flame Annihilation Cannon on the roof of the vehicle, accompanied by a low mechanical roar, slowly rotated its muzzle and directly entered a 5-second charging state.

Violent black and white dual-colored energy began to gather crazily at the front of the cannon barrel.

Lu Yuan stared fixedly at the Steel Fortress ahead, ready at any moment to hit the unknown danger inside with a world-destroying nuke.

However.

Before he could fire this main cannon shot.

In the vehicle system's cross-region public channel, countless messages frantically mentioning him popped up as if it had gone crazy.

"@Red Wolf!! A red heavy tank! That's Red Wolf's heavy tank!"

"@Red Wolf!! Wuwuwu... It's the Red Wolf Guild! The Red Wolf Guild's army is here!"

"@Red Wolf!! That's great, it's Red Wolf! We're saved!!!"

The screen was full of excited wails of survivors who had escaped death; countless people in the channel were letting out heart-wrenching cheers.

Lu Yuan, who was full of killing intent and ready to blast the front flat with one shot, saw this bizarre scene on the screen, and his hand holding the launch button froze suddenly.

He blinked blankly, a large question mark slowly appearing on his forehead.

"Huh?"

"What is going on here?"
