Dimensional Expedition

Chapter 37: 37. The returnee

Views:

Hubert pulled down the visor on his helmet. He never thought that one day he would ride this steel-made beast to the battlefield.

But he looked through the front window at the herd of blood crystal beasts on the plain in the distance.

The sight of tens of thousands of blood crystal beasts gathered together made Hubert's palms break out in cold sweat.

He had seen Lu Cheng use a weapon called a gun to easily kill a blood crystal beast, but as far as the eye could see on the distant plain, the figures of those scarlet monsters were almost everywhere.

They glow faintly in the darkness, searching for prey with an insatiable appetite...

What made Hubert's hands tremble the most was that the beast was rushing straight towards the group of blood crystal beasts, just like a turtle rushing into a river full of piranhas.

But Hubert was wrong... Pioneer II was not a turtle, but a rhino! A rhino that had learned the art of meteor shower!

"Cruise missiles one through seven are about to hit their targets."

Tiehuan reported this sentence on the radio in a calm tone.

The next moment, a scorching light lit up in Hubert's pupils, and the soil on the distant plain was instantly lifted up, and thick smoke burst out from the ground... the scorching flames were born in the thick smoke and turned into a sun that lit up the night!

Even though Hubert was sitting in the SUV, he could feel the vehicle vibrate, and the explosion was so loud that it almost broke Hubert's eardrums.

When he blinked again... the blood crystal beasts in front of him disappeared instantly, not only the blood crystal beasts in the center of the smoke, but also the blood crystal beasts around the smoke... the sticky liquid surrounding their bones was directly swept away by an invisible force, leaving only a skeleton.

Burning…burning!

Hubert swore that he had never seen such a crazy thing in his life. The flames rising from the ground spread to the sky like a skull face. There was no sign of any life around this skull face made of flames.

How is this done

At this moment, Hubert remembered what Lu Cheng had said to them.

'That distant country has the power to crush everything here.'

At first Hubert thought Lu Cheng's description was just an exaggeration, but Lu Cheng used reality to tell Hubert... every word Lu Cheng said was true.

This was like a punishment from God. In Hubert's worldview, only God could do this, but they did it.

Looking at the blood crystal beast turned into ashes in the flames, Hubert felt nothing but palpitations and relief...

"Scare...is saved." General Hubert muttered to himself.

… … …

"I'm going to rush in directly later. Please explain to me how the barrier works first."

Lu Cheng stepped on the accelerator of Pioneer No. 1, and Pioneer No. 2 and an armored infantry vehicle that was teleported led the way.

Those blood crystal beasts that wanted to get close were all sent into the sky by the precision-guided cruise missiles set by the iron ring.

"I can open an entrance in the barrier, but it must be at the Sunfire Gate."

Elena looked at the flames rising all around her. If it were someone else... these exploding flames would be a symbol of doomsday, but in Elena's eyes they were as dazzling as a new dawn.

"Really? Noi, sit tight."

Lu Cheng adjusted the gear and spoke to Nuoyi who was sitting in the back.

These were the only three passengers on Pioneer 1.

The goal of this car is to directly break through the area where the blood crystal beast is located and enter the inner city area.

Lu Cheng stepped on the accelerator directly, and the power of the Pioneer's No. 1 cylinder turbocharged intercooled diesel engine was fully opened, turning the car into a monster that swallowed up all the diesel and rushed forward madly.

The blood crystal beasts' attention was drawn away by Miss Groundhog in the front team.

As Lu Cheng drove into the city, there were basically no blood crystal beasts blocking his steps.

Blood and corpses could be seen everywhere in the outer city area of the Scarre Royal City, and there were even a few blood crystal beasts devouring the bodies of the people.

At this time, Lu Cheng really wanted to cover Nuoyi's eyes, but when Lu Cheng glanced at the rearview mirror, he saw that Nuoyi had already obediently covered his eyes with his hands.

This is not something a child should see or endure.

"It's right in front of us!" Elena had to open her eyes wide to see clearly the cruel scenes before her.

She was just a child in Lu Cheng's eyes, but Elena knew the mission she was carrying.

So Elena had to remember all the tragic scenes before her.

Elena saw the entrance to the inner city of Scare not far away... The gate to the inner city was not closed because they had no time to close it.

The so-called barrier could not cover the entire inner city at all, so the gate of the inner city was full of corpses of soldiers and blood crystal beasts, as it had experienced a great battle not long ago.

"We're going to rush right over there."

Lucheng showed no intention of slowing down. A small group of blood crystal beasts surrounded the barrier of the inner city which was getting smaller and smaller. They drooled and were eager to eat the humans in the barrier alive.

But before they could even swallow their saliva, they were crushed into pieces by a beast made of steel.

Pioneer No. 1 directly knocked away several blood crystal beasts and rushed towards the barrier. At this moment, Elena chanted an ancient spell, and the holy crystal on the back of her hand lit up.

The moment Pioneer No. 1 touched the barrier, a crack appeared on the surface of the barrier, and Pioneer No. 1 rushed in smoothly.

There were still some residents and soldiers who survived in the inner city, but Lu Cheng ignored them and drove directly towards the most conspicuous building in the inner city.

That is where the castle where King Skarre resides is located.

Pioneer No. 1 directly broke open the castle gate and then stopped inside the castle.

There were actually soldiers on duty in the castle, but they were so scared when they saw the giant steel beast rushing in that they turned around and ran away.

These soldiers were already on the verge of collapse because of the invasion of the blood crystal beasts. The appearance of Pioneer No. 1 made them mistakenly believe that the blood crystal beasts had broken through the barrier and rushed in.

"Noi, just wait here and don't go anywhere, okay?" Lu Cheng said to Noi who was sitting in the back.

'I'll wait for you to come back.'

Nuoyi raised the notebook in his hand and showed the line of words to Lu Cheng.

Lu Cheng immediately opened the car door and got out. After Elena got out of the car, Lu Cheng locked the door of Pioneer No. 1 and left a window for air circulation.

Under such circumstances, Lu Cheng didn't believe that anyone in this world could break the defense of Pioneer No. 1.

"This way."

According to her memory, Elena led Lu Cheng towards where the king was.

Along the way, Lu Cheng could vaguely hear the sound of some musical instrument. This sound was not an illusion. When Lu Cheng followed Elena into the hall that could be described as luxurious.

There was actually a band playing in the hall. Lu Cheng also saw a long table filled with food, and the nobles gathered together chatting and laughing.

If it weren't for the sight of corpses scattered all over the ground outside the castle, Lu Cheng would have thought they were celebrating something... but for these nobles... this seemed to be the last carnival.

"Father, I'm back!"

Elena's angry voice echoed throughout the hall, and the music stopped abruptly. All the nobles in bright and beautiful clothes looked at Elena, whose body was covered in dust and blood.
