Translated Chapter:
"Thank you very much to my brother Night Accompanied by Fireworks for the two alliance leader rewards, it's too much! Also, thanks to Shana for the five thousand rewards, and to brothers like zcftch and Jia Peiqi for their support, thank you all!"
In that instant when the light burst forth, Lord Luoxu, no, not just Lord Luoxu, but the other two dwarf powerhouses, Jie Luo and Daqu Wu, also changed their expressions dramatically.
They felt their scalps tighten.
For peak experts, this meant that something that could threaten them had appeared.
Lord Luoxu quickly clasped his hands in front of his chest, and a golden wheel emerged at his chest, spinning to hide him away. From the outside, all that could be seen was the rotating image bursting forth like a dazzling fire tree.
Jie Luo and Daqu Wu leaned against each other, the latter quickly soaring upwards with his companion.
It wasn't that Daqu Wu wanted to run sideways, but the speed and coverage of the incoming projectiles below left him without the confidence to escape.
"What is that...?" The people in front of the light barrier almost pressed themselves against the live broadcast screen, trying to see clearly what was shooting out from the dense metal bronze.
It was too fast, and there seemed to be no light, but everyone was certain that something was indeed firing out from within.
In the live broadcast light barrier, some not very large but clearly audible 'puff' sounds came through, and many people saw Lord Luoxu reappear.
In fact, compared to before, Lord Luoxu himself had not changed at all; he still maintained the posture of hands clasped in front of his chest, only the golden wheel that had been spinning and emitting brilliance had changed.
At this moment, its rotation had slowed significantly, as if being pulled by something, and its shape appeared somewhat distorted.
The dazzling brilliance that had been constantly erupting also seemed to stagnate; although it was still present, it had lost its vitality.
As they looked past the somewhat strange Lord Luoxu, everyone focused on the sky above, gradually realizing what had just been emitted.
It seemed to be clusters of somewhat illusory energy orbs, moving quickly and elusively. Each cylinder emitted a small orb, which did not appear large when viewed individually, but after being launched, due to the angle of the cylinders not being parallel to the vertical, the emitted orbs would converge at some point.
These orbs did not cancel each other out; instead, they merged, and by the time people caught sight of them, they had already formed hundreds of large masses, almost encompassing the entire Cloud Summit Manor and the surrounding sky.
If Ye Zhongming were to describe the current scene, it would be... swarms of jellyfish striving to swim upward?
Regardless, these jellyfish-like energy bodies, utilizing their speed, were closely pursuing Daqu Wu, wrapping around him.
At this moment, the advantages of divine level equipment were fully displayed.
Even with one person aboard and a slightly slower initiation, they still avoided being struck by these orbs. Once they reached a certain height, the combined 'jellyfish' emitted from the cylinder finally showed signs of waning speed, and it seemed that in a moment, they would either fall or disperse entirely.
That moment soon arrived; the 'jellyfish' halted at a certain point and then vanished without a sound, as if they had never appeared.
Daqu Wu stopped and looked down, his expression not looking good.
At this moment, he was quite far from the battlefield, as the speed of the Thunderbolt Glimmering Wings had allowed him to ascend to a great height in a short amount of time.
If it weren't for the exceptional vision of peak experts, he might not have been able to see the battlefield situation clearly.
But precisely because the two could see it, their expressions were grim.
They saw that Lord Luoxu, who had chosen to withstand the impact with the Lilon Armor rather than evade, was in a poor state; those "jellyfish" seemed to possess a strange magical power, inflicting great pain even on Lord Luoxu clad in divine level armor.
