Reincarnation Paradise-Chapter 843: The Power of the Sun!
Chapter 843: The Power of the Sun!
"Kill!"
"The miscellaneous of the Wheel of Reincarnation!" A large group of contractees from the Sky Opening Paradise rushed onto the first floor of the Twilight Palace. An embarrassing scene unfolded as not even a ghost shadow could be seen on the first floor of the Twilight Palace.
For a moment, many contractees didn't know what to do. Should they continue attacking the upper floors? What if there are traps? Xi surveyed the surroundings, her face not looking good. It wasn't due to the enemy's empty city strategy but rather due to the suppression of perception within the Twilight Palace.
With her perception, she could only sense the situation within a four-meter radius. After inquiring with several perception-based contractees, Xi got some information: everyone's perception was compressed to within four meters, whether it was perception-based abilities or melee combat skills.
"Xi, what should we do?" The female gunman habitually regarded Xi as their leader. "Search. If there's no one on this floor, leave a hundred people to guard the three entrances and then continue upwards." After Xi issued the command, the contractees from the Sky Opening Paradise began patrolling the first floor.
The terrain of the first floor was complicated, divided by rooms connected. However, after inspecting, the result was that not even a single soul was found on the first floor, not even a mouse. Getting this result, Xi was somewhat puzzled. While she had a high intelligence, her opponents didn't deploy their plans according to ordinary human thinking.
Usually, the Wheel of Reincarnation side should have defended the three entrances. If they couldn't hold the entrances, they should retreat and defend the second floor, not leave the first floor abandoned like this. Xi was feeling a bit overwhelmed. However, she had to make decisions quickly.
After some thought, Xi could only lead the people towards the second floor, leaving a hundred contractees to guard the entrances to avoid being caught in a pincer movement.
The large group from the Sky Opening Paradise charged towards the second floor, but this time, their momentum was notably weaker.
Once a contractee from the Sky Opening Paradise rushed onto the second floor, their expression turned puzzled, just like their teammates behind them. When Xi ascended to the second floor, her brows furrowed. On the wall opposite the entrance to the second floor was a line of significant characters.
"Idiots, no need to look; there's no one on the second floor either." Xi breathed a sigh of relief, trying to keep her composure. Undoubtedly, this was the most speechless enemy encounter she had ever faced. "What now?" Even the female gunman was somewhat speechless.
"Continue searching. If there's still no one, leave a hundred people to defend the exits and be ready to reinforce the upper floors at any time." The contractees from the Sky Opening Paradise gradually spread out on the second floor. Seconds later… Boom! An explosion resounded.
In the sealed second floor, the explosion sound could only be described as deafening. Flames spewed out from one of the rooms, and several contractees covered in flames rushed out, screaming; some even had their limbs blown off.
Boom, boom, boom… One explosion followed another. The Sky Opening Paradise suffered a dozen deaths and injuries. The suppression of perception proved to be fatal for them as they failed to notice the alchemical bombs and other explosives laid out on the second floor.
After the explosions subsided, the acrid smell of gunpowder lingered on the second floor.
It took twenty minutes for the Sky Opening Paradise to confirm that there were no more bombs on the second floor.
"Xi, what now..." The female gunman was about to speak, but Xi waved her hand. "Leave some people behind and continue upwards." The majority of the force moved towards the third floor. Upon reaching the third floor, there was still a line of prominent characters at the entrance.
"Don't worry, no one on the third floor, no bombs either." The contractees from the Sky Opening Paradise, under increased pressure, naturally didn't believe it. They cautiously spread out on the third floor. However, to their surprise, there was indeed nothing on the third floor, and even the passage leading to the fourth floor needed to be more robust.
Xi had already sensed that something was wrong. But they were the attacking side. They couldn't just stop because there was a threat. As for sending out scouts, who would go? In this situation, who among them would willingly act as scouts? They didn't have any reckless daredevils.
Xi looked at the string of bracelets on her wrist. If her sister were still alive, this wouldn't have been a problem at all. "Xi, I'll scout ahead." The female gunman walked towards the fourth floor, and Xi didn't stop her. Soon, the female gunman sent a message: there was still no one on the fourth floor.
Xi hesitated for a moment, then led the majority of her force to the fourth floor. However, this time, she left half of her people on the third floor, being cautious in case there was an ambush on the fourth floor.
Xi's approach was correct. She gradually deployed her forces within the Twilight Palace, not leaving too many or too few people. In the end, it would be their victory, trapping the Wheel of Reincarnation on the upper floors.
Xi led three hundred contractees to the fourth floor. It was noticeably more spacious than the lower floors, with wide corridors instead of rooms. At the same time, directly below the Twilight Palace, a black-haired teenager and a dozen contractees dressed in black leather hugged the pillars beneath the palace.
Due to the suppression of perception by the Twilight Palace, the Sky Opening Paradise couldn't detect them. "It seems like the time is about right." Black Blood, with his ten fingers like hooks, swept towards the edge of the Twilight Palace, followed by the other dozen contractees in black leather.
In no time, these dozen individuals climbed up from below to the stone platform beside the Twilight Palace and headed towards the entrance. Inside the first level of the Twilight Palace, there were a hundred contractees from the Sky Opening Paradise on guard.
Black Blood boldly approached the entrance, and without any words, a fight broke out between the two sides. After dozens of seconds, Black Blood and the suicide squad were all wiped out! After the explosions, Black Blood and the suicide squad stood up again. They were all contractees with an undead bloodline.
"There were only a dozen people; trying to attack the third floor was simply impossible, but these bombs aren't bad." Black Blood held a special alchemical bomb. Not just Black Blood but the dozen members of the suicide squad also had various types of bombs. This was almost all the bombs the Sky Opening Paradise's contractees had stored, turning the Taliban players from 1 person to 16 people.
The sounds of explosions and screams blended into one… Just as the leading force finished exploring the fourth floor, they received news of an attack on the first floor. Upon receiving this message, Xi felt somewhat relieved. Should they retreat to the first floor or continue upwards? This was a difficult decision. Breaking through two more levels, they would reach the seventh floor, where the core of the world was located.
"Gentlemen and ladies." A familiar voice came from behind the crowd of the Sky Opening Paradise. "Welcome to... the Wheel of Reincarnation, hehehe." The fake Joker stood at the entrance from the fourth floor to the third floor, holding a shimmering golden scroll in his hand.
With a tearing sound, the scroll was torn apart, and spatial force spread out, bringing forth dozens of contractees, led by Flame Tiger-riding, Magic Spear-wielding En Chen.
[Short-distance Large-scale Teleportation Array (Gold): Capable of a 50-200 meter short-distance teleport, rated 358 points, provided by En Chen.]
"Retreat." En Chen led dozens of contractees back into the staircase from the fourth floor to the third floor. Seeing this scene from the fourth floor, Xi was somewhat surprised. Now, both the third and fourth floors belonged to them. En Chen's group had almost placed themselves in a precarious situation by teleporting to the middle. They would soon be wiped out.
However, Xi knew that there had to be a reason behind this unusual move. "En Chen, you have only 30 seconds to reach the third floor." Su Xiao stood on the other side of the fourth floor, in front of the staircase leading to the fifth floor, accompanied by dozens of their contractees.
The current situation was that En Chen blocked the entrance from the fourth floor to the third floor, while Su Xiao blocked the entrance from the fourth floor to the fifth floor. The fourth floor had turned into a temporary sealed room.
No matter how high Xi's intelligence was, it was useless because she couldn't bypass one point: she wanted to lead her people to attack the Twilight Palace, and her subordinates were too afraid of death. Xi was leading hundreds of useless allies. If she could destroy a few hundred members of the Wheel of Reincarnation, it would have already demonstrated her capability.
Su Xiao and En Chen didn't really plan any layout; they used the most straightforward method to create a sealed room, trapping Xi and her subordinates on the fourth floor.
Recognizing the current situation, Xi immediately understood what was going on. The enemy intended to use a massive weapon of mass destruction.
"Isaac, take action." Xi shouted, and a young man rushed out from the main force, standing in front of Xi. At the same time, Su Xiao threw out a red-hot spherical object about the size of an apple. While flying through the air, the sphere gradually expanded. It was the Sun God - Apollo!
Snap! Apollo landed, bouncing a few times before stopping. Cracks began to appear on its surface, and the terrifying energy inside seemed like it could burst out at any moment. At this moment, the surface temperature of Apollo was extremely terrifying. Even its creator, Su Xiao, dared not touch it at this moment.
Click, click! The ground beneath Apollo cracked extensively, becoming glassy due to the high temperature. The energy protecting the Twilight Palace couldn't withstand Apollo's temperature. Seeing Apollo, Xi's pupils contracted. Her originally fair face had lost all its colour.
The young man named Isaac rushed forward and recklessly grabbed Apollo with one hand. In just an instant, Isaac's palm turned into ashes and then vaporized. "Transmission." Whoosh~ Apollo vanished. Su Xiao narrowed his eyes. Apollo had been transmitted to the fifth floor.
The opponent's idea was good, intending to use Apollo to detonate and kill everyone on the fifth floor. However, within ten seconds of activation, Su Xiao immediately took control of the Apollo on the upper floor and stopped its detonation. "It seems like your plan could be better. Kill him with Book Reading."
Xi, with a face covered in cold sweat, watched Su Xiao. For some reason, even though the dangerous explosive had been sent away, she still felt a sense of danger. The lack of perception made this feeling less strong. Su Xiao lit a cigarette and leaned against the wall. 𝘧𝓇𝘦𝘦𝔀ℯ𝘣𝓃𝓸𝓿ℯ𝘭.𝑐𝓸𝓂
"So... what about the second one you prepared?" As he finished speaking, Su Xiao bent his legs and leapt towards the stairs above the fourth floor. Crack, crack. A fireball appeared in a corner of the fourth floor; Su Xiao had previously placed an Apollo on the fourth floor.
Boom! The fireball exploded, and a bright white flame quickly spread across the fourth floor. The sunfire began to fill the fourth floor. In this nearly enclosed environment, Apollo displayed 500% of its power, shaking the entire Twilight Palace! The fourth floor turned into a world of solar fire.
Xi hurriedly rushed towards the staircase leading from the fourth floor to the fifth floor. Besides running, doing anything else was meaningless now. Suddenly, she heard a buzzing sound in her ears, and her body was instantly burned into ashes and vaporized by the solar fire. Under the might of the Sun God, Xi didn't even have a chance to resist.
Six thousand points of actual burning damage plus an additional 2000 points of flame burning damage, not to mention second-tier contractees; even third or fourth-tier contractees wouldn't survive!
One second later, all the contractees on the fourth floor were vaporized, leaving nothing behind but ashes, with the sight filled with the fire of the Sun God. The wrath of the Sun God continued; its might was unquestionable!
