Chapter Summary
Liu Ning is very clear about how much negative impact this identity can bring him, so he has developed a habit of buying things directly whenever he sees something used by a poison master. We had won the battle between the God of War level experts, and now the laser cannons were dealing with the high-level general level beasts. If we run out of energy, and their war gods and ferocious beasts attack at that time, do you think we can still maintain this optimistic attitude?" The laser cannon requi...
This is actually related to Liu Ning's usual habits. Liu Ning is very clear about how much negative impact this identity can bring him, so he has developed a habit of buying things directly whenever he sees something used by a poison master.
Regardless of whether these things are useful or not, they might come in handy in the future, so he has recorded a lot of such things in his space. Buying one or two items individually will not arouse suspicion from others.
Moreover, Liu Ning's public identity is that of a businessman, and only a businessman would purchase so much at once. If he were a poison master, he might not have such purchasing power.
Whenever Liu Ning visits the poison market, many people happily sell their goods to him. Although Liu Ning is very good at bargaining, he needs large quantities. As long as the quality of your goods is good, he will never delay payment. In this business environment, he is a rare find.
Fifteen minutes later, the battle in the sky had been decided. With the help of the laser cannon, the two war god-level powerhouses emerged victorious. The Poison King was beaten bloody, but it was probably impossible to capture him. The Poison King retreated with his severe injuries.
For a person or beast of the War God level, defeating them might be relatively easy, but killing them would be a different story. As for capturing them, that requires having the upper hand in various aspects. Given the combat strength of the Lord's two guards, it's impossible for them to capture him.
Liu Ning had already seen it through his binoculars. Even with the aid of the laser cannon, the two men showed signs of weakness as they retreated, and it seemed they were injured, though it wasn't immediately apparent.
Liu Ning felt a shadow in his heart. Two of their War God-level experts were injured. Even with various medicines, the battle would probably have to wait a while. As for the specific situation of the ferocious beasts, Liu Ning really couldn't say. After all, the ferocious beasts were far away from them, and there was no way to detect their specific situation.
However, at the start of the war, Liu Ning saw that they had more than a dozen war god-level ferocious beasts. If they were to attack all at once, it was hard to say who would win or lose. Zhao Wudi's combat power was indeed very strong, but not everything could be left to Zhao Wudi.
Zhao Wudi is a nuclear-weapon-type killing god, but he is still human and will eventually get tired. He will not go into battle unless absolutely necessary. If Zhao Wudi also fails, it will be a devastating blow to the morale of the entire city's army.
Liu Ning then noticed that the city wall was covered with poisonous spikes. Although they didn't affect the foundation of the wall, they were covered in venom, and it would take a lot of effort to clean them all.
"The laser cannon fired again, let's see what it hit..."
Wei Xiong's words drew everyone's attention. A huge figure appeared in the thick smoke. They couldn't see it clearly with their eyes, but the radar on the city wall must have detected it. The laser cannons were probably targeting this guy.
The enormous creature collapsed instantly. It was a ferocious beast at the level of a high-level warrior, with combat power similar to the black python Liu Ning had seen before. Back then, Liu Ning and his companions had exhausted all their strength to finally defeat the black python, but now, a single attack from the laser cannon had already taken it down. This is where humans have an advantage over ferocious beasts.
The warriors below were cheering, and everyone felt that we were about to win. We had won the battle between the God of War level experts, and now the laser cannons were dealing with the high-level general level beasts. The remaining beasts should be able to escape soon.
"Brother Wei, why are you still so stern? We're about to achieve victory! Look how useful our laser cannons are! These ferocious beasts can't get past us at all. If they keep going forward, they'll just be easy prey for us."
Liu Ning was among those cheering. He wondered what was wrong with Wei Xiong and why he still had such a stern face. Didn't he see the victory they had achieved? The falling beasts were the source of their joy.
"Are you really that optimistic? Take a closer look; all of them coming are high-level warriors. High-level warriors are rare even for these ferocious beasts, but they're not war gods. Our laser cannons consume a lot of energy. How much energy have we stored? Nobody dares to say right now. If we run out of energy, and their war gods and ferocious beasts attack at that time, do you think we can still maintain this optimistic attitude?"
The laser cannon requires two raw materials to fire. One is the electricity currently in use. This city has a canopy, so electricity is not a concern. The other is the crystal core of the ferocious beast. A lot of this is used each time it is used. If these materials are insufficient, the laser cannon will not be able to operate, and the city will still be in danger.
Liu Ning also sensed it at this moment. It seemed that the ferocious beasts had sent out high-level warriors to consume the raw materials of the laser cannons. They had enough of them, and the city had already been surrounded, so it was impossible to add new energy. Therefore, in the long run, this attack method appeared to be a victory for humans, but in reality, it was the ferocious beasts who were winning.
Twenty minutes later, Liu Ning observed that of the original 20 laser cannons firing at full power, only a dozen or so remained, with nearly 30% no longer firing.
Liu Ning was puzzled. Could it be that our reserves are so small? Actually, our reserves are not small. The most critical issue is that the number of ferocious beasts that came this time is simply too great. No matter how many crystal cores the garrison has stored, it is unlikely that we will be able to repel their attack.
The garrison's reserves are now depleted, and they are basically using the reserves of various families. These families are not stupid; they know that these resources must be given away for free. If the city falls, their losses will be even greater. Giving up a portion of their resources is the best way to protect their assets. At this point, they are very good at calculating.
