The cannons roared and fired from the tank's turret. The sound was so loud that it overshadowed the thunder in the sky.
A shot like that could collapse a building and shatter a human body into pieces. However, the shot only caused ripples in space. The buildings that were morphing into pyramids were not hit and the Napatan Temple guards were still standing on the street.
Bang, bang, bang. The tank's anti-aircraft machine gun fired a barrage of bullets but it was unable to reach the building. It was like a thousand tons of bullets landing on cotton.
"The central point of the mutated area." Xiao Xu said like a veteran from the battlefield.
At that moment, the communication vehicle received a signal from the outside. It immediately sent the location over. Lou Xiaoning reported, "The enemy is the Nubians. They are competing with the Egyptian civilization for the name of the gods and the pyramids. They are coming from this direction … Before she could say anything, the signal was cut off again. She cursed angrily."
The Napatan Temple guards moved at the same time. One of them was holding a spear. He raised the spear and hurled it in their direction.
"Dodge it!" Lou Xiaoning shouted.
But in a split second, the spear moved faster than a meteor. The tank shook violently and creaked unpleasantly.
The steel roof was easily pierced through. The spearhead was right next to Lou Xiaoning's head, it was just a hair's breadth away from puncturing her skull.
Cold sweat trickled down her forehead instinctively.
Chang Qianhang, Uncle Dan, Wang Ruoxiang and the rest were shocked. Only Xiao Xu said calmly, "It fits the parabolic equation."
Chang Qianhang noticed the strange inscription on the spearhead. It was the ancient Egyptian sacred script. He mumbled, "Crush Amon's power."
The traitor of the sun god Amon, crush Amon's power.
Chang Qianhang's expression shifted and his gaze turned strange. The rationality assessment stone on his left wrist glowed red. The group instantly knew he was being corrupted by dark energy. The power of this spearhead was pulling him towards the abyss of the black goat.
"Ancient Seal!" Lou Xiaoning was also agitated by the spearhead. As she shouted, she picked up a small cleansing stone and placed it on the spearhead. The spearhead shuddered but the cleansing stone soon cracked and shattered into pieces.
At the same time, Uncle Dan and Wang Ruoxiang applied the Ancient Seal on Chang Qianhang and injected him with tranquilizer.
Chang Qianhang was sent to the frontline as a logistician. he almost fainted from the impact. However, the red light from the stone finally stopped.
His middle-aged face contorted in discomfort as he continued, "They should've … already summoned a certain amount of divine power … but they're only gatekeepers … There's even a name on the list. It's a classic example of the Nile Civilization … Betrayal, Bloodlust, Word Breaker, Decapitation … Blade Forger.
What exactly was he saying? What did he see when he gazed at the line of Holy Scriptures on the spearhead? No one knew, not even Xiao Xu.
On the other side, the Nubian Inhumans did not stop. They hurled a second round of spears and then a third.
The spears flew through the air. They were dyed red by the rainwater. The inscriptions on the spearheads glowed red.
"Get the Byakee!" Lou Xiaoning ordered. Guns were useless against the enemy so this was the only way. Including her, Xiaoxu, Wang Ruoxiang, Yang Henan, and the rest of the ten team members immediately used the Nine Mystic Arts, which was also known as the Seven Cryptical Book of Hsan's Summoning Byakee.
Bang! Bang!
Before the spell was completed, even though the vehicles evaded, they were not as fast as the spears. Instantly, more spearheads pierced through the vehicles.
Yang Henan's scream came through the communicator. "My left shoulder is hit by a spear … and the tank's engine is damaged. We need to get off the vehicle …"
Byakee, this broken and strange behemoth, responded to their summons. It emerged from the ground around the vehicle and immediately spread its wings. Some wrapped around the vehicle, while others flew towards the Napatan Temple Guards.
One of the Byakee protected the tank. The vehicle could explode at any time. The three people in the vehicle got off the vehicle and rushed towards the armored vehicle.
Yang Henan was supported by the other two. He covered his left shoulder with his right hand. The spear had pierced through his shoulder blade.
Under the rain of blood, a few Byakees and the Nubian Inhumans fought fiercely. The mutants were not afraid at all. Some of them leaped onto Byakee's back, waving their stone machetes that were also carved with inscriptions and stabbing at Byakee's body.
The Byakees shook their bodies, but they could not shake the Inhumans off. They crashed into the pyramids and smashed themselves into pieces.
Some of the Inhumans were smashed into pieces, while others were torn apart by the teeth of the Byakees. But soon, more Inhumans came out from between the pyramids.
It was impossible to kill them all. If the door to hell was opened, they would not be able to kill them all.
However, be it Lou Xiaoning or Wang Ruoxiang, all of them had cold sweat on their foreheads. They could feel that their minds were in a trance and being eroded …
"We can't go on like this." Uncle Dan reminded them, "Your rationality assessment stone is about to explode."
"Based on the current situation, we need to summon another 17531 Byakees to win this war of attrition." Xiao Xu had done the calculation. "But if we summon another 68 Byakees, they will all descend into madness. Then, without the enemy doing anything, they will kill themselves."
Lou Xiaoning had no idea whether there were really 68 Byakees or not, but she knew this was not going to end well.
It had always been difficult to win a war of attrition against the cultists and the forces of darkness.
They had to stop the ritual and cut off the enemy's source of power to end this situation … The ritual was right there, but they could not get close to it …
At that moment, Yang Henan's group got into the vehicle. Wang Ruoxiang and Uncle Dan rushed over to perform emergency treatment. They stopped the bleeding and pain and prepared for the amputation. The injury on Yang Henan's left shoulder was too severe. His entire left upper limb had turned black. Amputation was the only solution.
The armored vehicle was shaking. The operating environment was poor. Before Lou Xiaoning could decide whether to retreat or not, the Byakees could not hold back the Napatan Temple Guards.
Some of the Inhumans rushed over while others leaped from the ground. They landed beside the convoy.
In the blink of an eye, they had surrounded the armored vehicle.
"The Burning Rebellion, be careful …" Chang Qianhang said weakly, "They have the power of the sun …"
Through the blood-red, hazy window, one could see the stone weapons in the hands of the expressionless Nubians emitting raging flames.
"F * ck …" Lou Xiaoning cursed. This was the end.
