Chapter 56 - 56 Victory in the First Battle, An Ant Shaking a Tree?
56 Victory in the First Battle, An Ant Shaking a Tree?
As the atmosphere in the live-stream livened up, the military big shot finally could not sit still.
“He has so many soldiers working together and even cooperated so seamlessly. This kid is a genius!”
He ordered his subordinates to cut the scene just now and play it repeatedly on the big screen. The military big shot could not help but click his tongue and praise as he watched. The more he watched, the more he liked Wang Xiao!
The other party was clearly only a level two lord who had just awakened, but his courage and strategizing ability even surpassed most of the generals in the army!
“Rope him in! We definitely have to rope him in!”
The military big shot clenched his fists excitedly. With the aptitude Wang Xiao had displayed so far, as long as he was nurtured well, Wang Xiao’s future achievements might even be above his!
In the secret realm.
The last fire-element attack completely evaporated the remaining blood mist.
The desert in front of the base was blasted apart by these three rounds of attacks, forming a huge pit nearly a thousand meters wide. Thick smoke rose, mixed with shattered gravel, like a fog that completely covered the red sky.
Everyone in the base looked at this scene in a daze. Even though they had experienced it themselves, they still could not believe that this scene in front of them was caused by them.
After an unknown period of time, someone finally came back to his senses and cheered, “Oh my god! We won!”
“We won! We won!”
“We don’t have to die!”
“We really defeated a level four lord!”
…
After a cheer, everyone celebrated happily.
The ecstatic atmosphere of surviving a calamity quickly spread in the base. However, at this moment, an untimely voice sounded. “Don’t be happy too early. A level four lord won’t die so easily.”
“Who’s talking nonsense here?!”
After having cold water poured on them, everyone’s expression darkened. They all looked for this fellow who was unable to read the room. However, when they saw the solemn expression of Wang Xiao on the city wall, they all tactfully shut their mouths and did not speak.
After all, if not for Wang Xiao, they might have already become corpses.
However, even if no one said anything, everyone was still unconvinced. No matter how one looked at it, they had the upper hand in the current situation. Even if they had not completely won, there was no need for the other party to suppress everyone like this, right?
Fang Tianyu walked to Wang Xiao’s side and said in a low voice, “Wang Xiao, I know it’s still too early to be happy.”
“But that’s a level four lord after all. Even if we only managed to let him suffer a little damage, it is still a success that everyone did not dare to imagine previously. A suitable celebration is very beneficial to increasing our morale.”
Wang Xiao turned around and looked at Fang Tianyu. His strange gaze made it seem as if it was the first time he had met this ice goddess. “Morale? When did you become so naive?”
Fang Tianyu was stunned. “What did you say?”
“I said you’re naive.”
Wang Xiao mercilessly said again, “Given such a huge difference in strength, other than making us underestimate our enemy, your so-called morale is useless. If you have time to celebrate, you might as well hurry up and replenish your potions.”
With that said, Wang Xiao took out two bottles of energy potions and threw one to Zhou Xiruo, who had just arrived. He silently walked to the side and drank it.
Looking at Wang Xiao’s casual appearance, the usually calm Fang Tianyu could not help but grit her teeth.
Although she also knew that Wang Xiao was right, the other party’s high and mighty attitude when he spoke really made her unhappy!
“Damn Wang Xiao! He actually dares to speak to my goddess like this!”
“Seriously! Isn’t he just a little smarter? What’s there to be arrogant about?”
“Don’t forget that he’s only a beast tamer lord. He was lucky enough to pick up a few powerful mutated beasts, but when geniuses like Goddess Fang grow up, he’s not even worth a fart!”
…
In the live-stream, the bootlickers of the Ice Mountain Goddess began to criticize Wang Xiao. However, before they could criticize him for long, a dazzling red light suddenly lit up on the screen!
A demonic red light pointed at the sky from the deep pit. Although it looked only as thick as a pinky, the terrifying power contained in it even made the audience in front of the screen feel a chill run down their spines!
In an instant, everyone subconsciously held their breaths. They saw a winged demon covered in injuries curl up as if it was hugging something. It flapped its broken wings and slowly flew out of the deep pit.
“He’s coming.”
Wang Xiao said expressionlessly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the winged demon turned into shattered light and dissipated. Andu, who was dressed in a gorgeous robe, walked out of the shattered light that filled the sky like a god.
“You ants from the Blue Planet… really surprise me!”
Andu said indifferently with a faint smile. Even after the three powerful attacks just now, he still did not show any signs of injury. Even his hair was not messy at all.
Looking at the elegant figure in the air, other than Wang Xiao, who had long expected it, the hearts of everyone else instantly sank to the bottom!
“How is this possible…”
Fang Tianyu muttered to herself in shock, “That was the full-strength attack of all of us just now! How could he be fine?!”
“Nothing is impossible. If he can be injured by such an attack, he’s not worthy of being a royal of the Crimson Star.”
Wang Xiao’s voice came from the side. Fang Tianyu suddenly thought of something and her expression changed slightly. “You knew that we couldn’t hurt him?”
Wang Xiao nodded and admitted. The geniuses in the base were instantly riled up.
“Wang Xiao! You clearly know that you can’t win, but you still gathered us here. What are you thinking?!”
“Could he be in cahoots with that Crimson Star Royal Family?”
“There’s still this possibility. Otherwise, how could the Crimson Star’s dimensional passageway coincidentally be connected to the secret realm of our league?”
…
Hearing those people’s discussions, Wang Xiao suddenly did not know whether to laugh or cry. It was said that anger and fear would lower one’s intelligence, but he did not expect these “geniuses” to be no exception.
The dimensional passageway could only randomly connect to secret realms with weak spatial barriers. This had long been confirmed.
These people actually suspected that Wang Xiao and the Crimson Star Royal Family were working together. He really did not know what they were thinking.
Fang Tianyu looked at the excited crowd and then at the relaxed Wang Xiao. Her cold face was immediately covered in a layer of frost. “Wang Xiao, what exactly do you want to do?”
“What do I want to do?”
Wang Xiao frowned, as if he felt that this question was very strange. “Of course, I want to survive.”
Fang Tianyu’s expression turned even colder. “Then why did you let us die here?! You clearly know that we’re not his match…”
“Who said we’re not their match?”
Wang Xiao chuckled and interrupted Fang Tianyu. His deep eyes stared straight at Andu in the air. “Didn’t you notice that those demon soldiers have disappeared?”
“Demon?”
Fang Tianyu’s heart skipped a beat. Only then did she discover that the hundred-meter-tall demons had all disappeared.
This was a battlefield, and it was impossible for Andu to recall all the soldiers. There was only one possibility left—their attack just now was not meaningless. Those demon soldiers could no longer continue fighting!
