Chapter 4887
The city wall is not a wall, but a thick armor plate that rises from the earth's veins.
The armor's back was covered with molten sand, from which were inserted fire spears, their tips gleaming with intense light.
The city was filled with molten towers, which, like vertical fire pipes, carried heat in all directions.
The plains in front of the city were carved with ravines by the molten lava, and between the ravines stood the neat array of Zhu Rong's army—spears, giant shields, flame throwers, and molten crossbow platforms, with waves of heat rolling and flags flashing like fire.
It looks like a primitive tribe, but their use of lava thermal energy is quite interesting.
It has a touch of technology to it, reminiscent of the Self-Strengthening Movement, where feudalism was mixed with a hint of science.
They had been waiting for a long time. The air was thick with murderous intent, and every Zhurong warrior looked like he was about to die.
They were waiting for the land people's army to arrive, but Zhang Yi still hid everyone on his person and came alone, undetected.
Looking at the heavily armed army ahead, Zhang Yi knew that breaking through Yan Yu City would be much more difficult than attacking the Molten River.
They had the advantage of surprise attack, and the Lava River, being an outer area, was militarily weaker than the Fiery Prison City.
Fire Ghost said in a low voice, "The Fire Envoy of Flame Prison City rang the bell three times throughout the city. This formation is the Sea Repelling Formation, which is specifically designed to block enemies coming from the direction of the Molten Sea. We never expected that someone would sneak up from the back of the ley lines."
"The military strength of Flame Prison City is several times greater than that of the Molten River! It's not easy to attack by force, Master, you must be careful!"
Zhang Yi stared at his loyal slave, deeply moved.
"Fire Demon, you are truly my good servant! Your master asks you, are you willing to do anything for me?"
Fire Demon replied without hesitation: "Of course, even if you want me to die!"
Having his mind completely controlled, he now obeys Yang Xinxin's orders and unconditionally submits to any command from Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi nodded with satisfaction: "Alright, in order to defeat the enemy, I would like to borrow something from you."
"What would you like to borrow, Master?"
"A head on your neck!"
……
At the summit of Fiery Prison City, a tall figure stood atop a fire tower, clad in layers of molten armor, with a fiery crown behind him, but rather a patch of wings that resembled burning feathers.
That wasn't just decoration; it was part of his power. Every time the Fire Wings folded and unfolded, the temperature of the entire city would fluctuate accordingly.
He was surrounded by a densely packed group of warriors from the Zhurong clan.
This is the guardian of Flame Prison City, the Flame Prison Overlord Cang Huoliu.
At this moment, Cang Huoliu, atop the blazing city tower, frowned deeply.
He had originally planned to assemble a large army to go to the Lava River to provide support.
But just before they were about to set off, the bell used to transmit information suddenly shattered.
That's their unique way of communicating; after all, in the underground world, ordinary electronic signals are blocked.
The horn is similar to a beacon tower, and there is one in each of the three major regions of the Zhurong Kingdom.
In the event of an extremely critical situation, it will sound the alarm.
Once the bell is destroyed, it signifies that the area has fallen.
That's how they concluded that the Lava River was completely beyond saving.
Cang Huoliu truly didn't understand.
Why can land dwellers thrive in the Earth's core? Why does the molten river... cut off all responses?
Could it be that the land dwellers are really that powerful, capable of completely destroying the entire lava river region in just a few tens of minutes?
Cang Huoliu found this matter unbelievable and refused to believe it was true.
If that's true... it would be absolutely terrifying!
Because that means they have provoked an unimaginable adversary.
"Molten Lava..."
He murmured, raising his hand to press on the vein stone of the fire tower, trying once again to ask that familiar sea.
The fire pulses at his fingertips were chaotic and shallow, as if someone had drained his blood, leaving only an empty shell echoing.
be terribly upset.
His subordinate Zhu Rong warriors stepped forward to comfort him, saying, "My lord, there is no need to worry! Our Zhu Rong clan has the sea of lava as a natural barrier, an advantage that no other race has."
