The path of survival was right before his eyes.
All he had to do was jump over the giant vicious beast carcass and jump over the last vicious beast carcass to reach the safe waters.
There were almost no vicious beasts in the safe waters and he was less than 500 meters away from the ship. Tang Ling did not purposely build any connections, but he believed that as long as he reached the safe waters, there would be a ship coming for him.
Tang Ling was not worried about the threat from the officer from the Stardust Council. He fought for his own life after all. As long as he could get out of the vicious beasts' encirclement, there was an 80% chance that the people from Iron-Blooded City would make a move.
What if they did not make a move? It would be fine. Tang Ling still had his own trump card.
So, this should be the last resort, right?
Tang Ling took a deep breath. An indescribable, cold aroma that belonged to Higan filled his nostrils.
"We might be able to survive this," Tang Ling said to Higan while his hands formed a special pose.
This pose!
The young warriors who witnessed the fight between Tang Ling and Tang Long felt a strange sense of familiarity, but they could not tell where they had seen it before. After all, their memories were taken away and everything became blurry.
In the end …
Tang Ling's energy started to gather rapidly. He had stayed on the vicious beast carcass for a long time, so three vicious beasts had noticed him.
This would be the final obstacle.
Tang Ling did not think that he could escape if he stayed on the carcass for a short time.
The vicious beast carcass that blocked his escape route was a Level 5 vicious beast. Several other vicious beasts were surrounding it, fighting for the right to eat the Level 5 vicious beast.
If Tang Ling were to try his luck and rush over, he would have to face several waves of attacks and it would be much more dangerous than any escape route he had taken.
Therefore, Tang Ling's body was rumbling with energy and his unparalleled aura was rising endlessly. Was it time for him to use his final trump card?
"Dragon Centipede!" Tang Ling roared and pushed his aura to the limit.
Following his roar, a giant eastern dragon's head appeared in front of Tang Ling. It opened its mouth and roared soundlessly before it dashed towards the vicious beasts that jumped at Tang Ling.
The dragon's head did not really roar, but the youths who saw this scene felt as if they had really heard an earth-shattering roar.
Some of the young warriors had a vague memory of the last time Tang Ling used the Dragon Centipede, but if they could remember it clearly, they would realize that the Dragon Centipede that Tang Ling fired this time was a lot more realistic, at least in terms of the dragon's head. It was like the head of a real eastern dragon.
The improvement was undoubtedly terrifying, and one day, when Tang Ling could truly use the Dragon Centipede, he would be able to create a complete eastern dragon.
Whoosh! As the dragon's head charged forward, a gust of wind rose without any warning in this small area of the sea. The wind was so violent that even the corpse of the level five beast on the sea surface was swept up by the wind.
The vicious beast that pounced on Tang Ling seemed to be frightened by the dragon's head as it froze on the spot.
In the next second, their skin started to tear and their scales started to shatter. The corners of their eyes, the sides of their mouths, cheeks, and other parts of their orifices started to bleed silently.
The vicious beasts showed a human-like expression of pain. The moment the Dragon Centipede was unleashed, their brains started to shake violently as if they had been switched into a concussion machine.
The Dragon Centipede was unleashed by Tang Ling, who was still a Purple Moon Warrior. If Tang Ling was a little stronger than a Rank 2 Purple Moon Warrior, the Dragon Centipede could have instantly killed the vicious beasts before him, regardless of the level limit.
After all, only a handful of people in the world could master the Dragon Centipede. Even the author who wrote it could not prove that he could use it when he completed it!
"Now!" A strong sense of weakness engulfed Tang Ling. The Dragon Centipede would not only drain all the energy in his body, but it would also drain the energy that he had been accumulating for a long time.
It was supposed to be the accumulation for him to become a Rank 1 Purple Moon Warrior, but it was not a pity.
However, there was nothing to be regretful about. As long as he did not let Higan down, as long as he could live on, anything was possible.
After all, Higan was still alive, was she not?
He gulped down the vicious beast meat in his mouth. He knew all he needed was one last leap and he would be able to reach the final destination of victory.
A mouthful of vicious beast meat should do the trick, right?
Tang Ling's vision was a little blurry, and he could no longer use his Precise Instinct. He put his hands behind his back, hugged Higan behind him, tightened his calves, and leaped towards the heaven-like sea.
At the same time, a furious roar sounded.
Following the furious roar, a series of angry curses sounded one after another.
All the curses were the same. "Liszt, what are you doing?!"
**
With Tang Ling's current strength, how far could he jump with a single leap? Even if he had to carry Higan on his back.
If Tang Ling calculated with his Precise Instinct, it would be 47.62 meters. The rest of the calculation was not as precise because it was affected by various factors, hence the slight deviation.
How far away was the Level 5 vicious beast from Tang Ling? The answer was 26 meters.
Therefore, even though he was extremely weak at the moment, with the support of a strip of vicious beast meat, he was still able to make the jump.
In the end, he succeeded.
Before the Level 5 vicious beast fell into the sea, Tang Ling carried Higan on his back and leaped across the distance.
In a blur, he and Higan fell into the sea, but it was a safe place. As long as Tang Ling had enough strength to swim for another dozen meters, many young warriors would risk their lives to catch him.
Of course, the officers of the Stardust Council would not stop them.
It was highly possible because Van Persie had hinted that he would stop them. Van Persie and the Red Tiger Squad had the strength to fight for a slim chance of survival for Tang Ling.
However, everything was stopped by a ship.
Tang Ling's escape route was a miraculous one. It was not something that could be described with words. Only those who were there at the scene would understand how astounding it was.
Moreover, Tang Ling and Higan's fate would be decided. Every young warrior was captivated by Tang Ling's every move, so none of them noticed that a ship had moved a few hundred meters around them.
The few hundred meters was a crucial distance because it was very close to the place where the vicious beasts gathered. It was right across the ship and blocked Tang Ling's escape route!
Who else could this ship belong to? It was Liszt's ship!
The 60 meters long ship was not big, but it was not a problem for it to block the escape route that was less than 30 meters wide.
Everyone realized that without the Dark Pellet's control, the vicious beasts seemed to have gathered in a certain circle and would not wander around.
As for the Dark Pellet? Its body was less than a hundred meters away from the huge crack.
Han Xing saw Tang Ling unleash the Dragon Centipede and the Dragon Centipede tearing open the last obstacle on his way to survival. He saw Tang Ling leap with all his might and his heart was filled with joy. Tang Ling did not have to die, and he wanted to go get him.
Therefore, he was the first to see Liszt's ship across the escape route.
Immense rage almost burst Han Xing's heart. How could there be such a person?! Did Liszt not know that strictly speaking, his life had been saved by Tang Ling at least twice?
The first time was when he was in the Death Mist Zone.
The second time was just a moment ago!
If not for Tang Ling, Liszt would have died in the sea.
However, at a time like this, what was wrong with Liszt?! Han Xing could not hold it in anymore. He shouted angrily, "Liszt, what are you doing? If Tang Ling dies, I'll kill you! "
Han Xing's shout attracted everyone's attention. All the young warriors saw the scene and were also infuriated by Liszt's actions. At the same time, they were shocked!
The Purple Moon era was indeed chaotic! However, the Purple Moon era worshipped the strong! What was the strong? It was exchanged with an honorable victory. What was it to use such a despicable method to block the escape route of a person who was struggling to survive?
Moreover, in the Purple Moon era, struggling to survive was recognized and even admired by the people. Liszt's actions were taboo in the world.
Therefore, everyone started to curse him! Some of them even wanted to attack him out of impulse.
The crew members on Liszt's ship blushed all of a sudden. A great sense of shame enveloped them. From their hearts to their fingertips, they seemed to be filled with shame.
However, they were all from hero families and had been Liszt's subordinates since they were young. Even though it was shameful, they dared not betray Liszt, even if they had to go against him.
However, Liszt was very calm in the control room.
He had been observing everything. He outlined the plan in his heart and when he decided to carry it out, he had already predicted the consequences. He did not regret it or care about it.
"Why do you have to do this?" Hank was slightly agitated. The complicated feelings from before were still lingering in his heart. He did not know how to face Liszt.
He would never betray Tang Ling. It was Liszt who reached out to him when he was at his lowest.
He had always trusted him and treated him well. He was even willing to tie his future with him.
But … Why do you have to do this?!
On the big screen in the control room, Tang Ling fell into the sea with Higan on his back. His gaze was a little blurry and it was obvious that he was at his limit.
He did not seem to notice that his escape route was blocked. In another half a minute, the vicious beasts that were hit by the dragon centipede would surely attack Tang Ling in a frenzy.
Tang Ling would die!
Liszt looked at the screen without turning around. He said in a heavy voice, "There are many powerhouses in this world, but there's only one king. If you don't fight for it, don't fight for it, and don't climb to the top by hook or by crook, how can you live up to the title of king? "
In the video, Tang Ling instinctively swam around, but a second later, he looked up and saw that the escape route before him was blocked by a boat!
Hank softly clenched his fists before he loosened them. He knew what Liszt was clinging to.
"It's fine actually. When I'm strong enough and become a real king, I won't care. Who would care about this so-called stain? History is written by the victors, and this might even become my glory, isn't it? "Liszt did not turn around as his eyes were glued to the screen.
Did Tang Ling still have a chance to live? No, there won't be anymore!
It was at that moment that the Stardust Council's ship moved. It sailed to the front of all the teenage ships. Smar, who had been untied and was in high spirits, shouted, "We don't care who Tang Ling has a personal grudge with. Whoever dares to help, we will attack mercilessly. "
As he spoke, seven strange-looking cannons appeared on the Stardust Council's ship. The cannons were different from the cannons of the old civilization. They were mirror-like objects, and even though the sky was hazy, the mirrors seemed to be able to gather light. The light reflected from the mirrors was blinding. If one could hold back the light and take a closer look at the mirrors, one would notice that there were faint super-technological patterns on the mirrors.
"This is …!" Van Persie was shocked. As an officer of Iron-Blooded City, he was very familiar with all kinds of super-technological weapons, so he recognized the weapon with a single glance.
It was one of the few powerful weapons that were not restricted by any strange restrictions.
The full name of the weapon was the super-technological Heat Light Mirror Cannon. It was not necessary to elaborate on how precious the weapon was and how strict the super-technological patterns were.
In terms of power, it was only a vague comparison, but it was much stronger than the strongest land cannon of the old civilization!
He did not expect the Stardust Council to be so determined to kill Tang Ling that they even hid such a weapon. It was even more powerful than the battleship that Iron-Blooded City gave him.
Just because of Tang Ling?
The more Van Persie thought about it, the more upset he felt. Was there a need to ask why? Even the Stardust Council was afraid of Tang Ling's potential!
No matter what kind of organization the Stardust Council was or how evil they were, they would never be wrong about a talented person.
Is there no other way?
When the weapon was revealed, Van Persie felt weak all over. He wanted to save Tang Ling, but dragging the high-rank Purple Moon Warrior from the Stardust Council with all his might was already exhausting. Facing such a powerful weapon …
**
Is there no other way?
Tang Ling was soaking in the cold seawater. His eyes were not filled with despair but unwillingness.
He never thought that Liszt would be the one to kill his last hope. He had already given his all.
"Go, or it'll be too late," Liszt said to Hank calmly in the control room.
He had something important to tell Hank, but he could not leave the control room at the moment. He could not trust anyone else, so he had to guard the control room to ensure that nothing would go wrong.
Hank glanced at Liszt with a complicated expression. In the end, he walked out of the control room and went to the platform on the second floor of the ship.
"Tang Ling, Higan can live!" Hank shouted, but he dared not look Tang Ling in the eyes since the beginning.
"You have 10 seconds to think about it. The vicious beasts will recover soon."
He quickly added because if Higan could survive, he might feel a little better. Hank did not know why he thought that way.
"There's no need to think about it." Tang Ling smiled calmly, but anyone who saw his smile would feel sorry for him.
He quickly untied the ropes that tied Higan up. As a matter of fact, he was so weak that he did not even have the strength to do so.
Hank quietly waved his hand. The lifeboat that he was on quickly lowered the lifeboats. Liszt showed a mysterious smile in the control room.
However, at that very moment, the unconscious Higan somehow grabbed the front of Tang Ling's shirt tightly with her limp hand that was dangling over Tang Ling's chest.
"Higan …" Tang Ling took a few deep breaths. He did not even have the strength to float on the sea.
He pulled Higan's hand helplessly, trying to pry it away. Higan's eyes were still closed and she did not react at all, but her grip was so strong that even if Tang Ling was in his normal form, he would have to exert a lot of strength to pry her hand away, let alone the weakened Tang Ling.
Many people saw the little detail. They could not describe how they felt, but their hearts ached for them.
Liszt saw it clearer than anyone else on the screen. The smile on his face vanished and his knuckles turned white as he gripped the control panel.
Was Tang Ling that good?
Less than 20 meters behind him, the vicious beasts that were attacked by the Dragon Centipede had almost recovered, and Tang Ling kept pulling Higan's hand in agony.
"Let go! You have to live! Why else would I fight so hard?
I understand that you want me to live, but why can't you understand me?
"Higan, I can't even talk anymore. I'm tired. You have to live and avenge me! "
The lifeboat was almost there. Tang Ling was anxious and helpless, but he did not know if Higan was still conscious or unconscious. Her hand on Tang Ling's shirt tightened, and her other arm even tightened around Tang Ling's shoulder.
"If there's no other way, just let them die together." Liszt's voice came from the control room. The lifeboats that were about to reach Tang Ling stopped. The young man on the lifeboat was at a loss of what to do.
From the bottom of his heart, he hoped that he could save one of them.
What else could he do? Let them die together? Let them sink to the bottom of the cold sea together. Together, they would not be separated, would they?
Tang Ling could not wait for his trump card anymore. He was exhausted. He and Higan had worked so hard, but a dead end was still a dead end.
However, at that moment, a louder voice came from the sea. "What right do you have to tell them to die?"
"Stardust Council's ship, move away! That bastard's ship, move away too! Otherwise, none of you will live!"
Who is it?!
Van Persie turned around abruptly. All the young warriors turned around as well. They realized that a huge aircraft carrier from the old civilization was sailing towards them from the left behind where the young warriors gathered.
On the deck of this aircraft carrier, there were two seemingly incomparably powerful cannons.
One of the cannons was pointed at the Stardust Council's ship while the other was pointed at Liszt's ship. What were the strange-looking cannons on top of the cannons?
If Tang Ling was awake, he would have recognized them at first glance. They were the Wrath of Neptune that Wu Mi had mentioned!
