BXBX NOVEL Chapter 395: Heaven’s Punishment
This was a road that was only fifty miles away from the Marauder’s hideout.
Meng Qingwu led the over thirty thousand army sent from the small town and entered the jungle. They carefully moved through the jungle, preparing for their attack.
“Elder sister, we did it!” Meng Yingying ran in front of Meng Qingwu with a face filled with happiness. She said in a small voice to her elder sister, “Chu Tian killed the chief in an instant, but a few of them escaped the net and perhaps they have already reported back. If we don’t attack now, perhaps the Marauders will run away.”
“Our support hasn’t arrived yet.” Nangong Yun found that the jungle ambush was the entirely the small town’s army. Didn’t the local tribes say that they would sent out their elites, “The Marauders have over seventy to eighty thousand people, all who are experienced in battle and they have their flying bat mounts. How will we win with just these people?”
“We don’t have time to wait for them.” Meng Qingwu was not surprised. These locals were suspicious of Miracle Commerce and although they said they would send support, they would actually move very slowly. It was clear they didn’t want to go first, so they stayed back to wait and see.
If attacking became unfavourable, they would surely turn to run. They would not risk offending the Marauders to help Miracle Commerce. Of course, if this offense was smooth, they would perhaps help.
No matter what.
Chu Tian did not care at all.
If they depended on those fellows, this fight could not last. This fight to Miracle Commerce was not just beating a bunch of forest robbers, but also was a chance to demonstrate Miracle Commerce’s strength. It was a good chance to kill some people as a warning.
There were countless robbers like the Marauders, so they would have to beat one after the other without end. The only way is to fight a beautiful battle and sweep through the other side, which will deter countless locals and countless robbers. It would most likely deter something like this from happening again.
Miracle Commerce did not just need to demonstrate their power to their enemies and potential enemies, they also needed to demonstrate this to their allies and potential allies. In the Forest of Chaos, power was everything. Whoever’s fist was harder had the right to speak.
If Miracle Commerce had enough strength, who would dare refuse submitting to them?
Miracle Commerce only had a small patch of land on the edge of the forest and did not touch the giant powers yet. The forest giants did not need to come provoke Miracle Commerce and no one dared touch Miracle Commerce here, so they could develop safely and steadily.
“Whether if it’s for a demonstration or a show, this fight must be beautiful.” Chu Tian made confirmations before the attack, “How are your preparations?”
“We can confirm that the other side is hiding in the cave and the Heaven’s Punishment is at the best attack position of five thousand meters!” Meng Qingwu then added, “The interference array you’ve formed has already been placed and it’s hidden in the forest where it isn’t easy to find.”
“Since it’s like this, just begin.” Chu Tian gave a satisfied nod, “Have the elves be responsible for the rear and have the rest of the army charge in.”
The elves were not truly a part of the small town.
Chu Tian did not want elves to die in the fight and then have those fellows come to him with trouble.
The several tens of thousands army had moved their way through the forest, stopping at a mountain peak several miles away. There were many Marauder bats that had flew over their head and it was clear this was their detection range.
The Marauders did not know Miracle Commerce could shield against the ultrasonic waves of the bats, but several tens of thousands of people was not a small number. If they were to approach, it was very likely they would be discovered.
“The preparations here are enough!” Chu Tian made a hand signal to Meng Qingwu, “Begin!” The berserkers will head in first and the others will climb down first.”
The six thousand barbarian berserkers poured into the forest holding their Source Energy Weapons.
Meng Qingwu took out a communication device which was connected to the airship above them, “Heaven’s Punishment, I am Meng Qingwu. Confirm the target and begin to attack. I repeat, begin to attack!”
“Heaven’s Punishment has received the orders!”
A low and deep sound came from the communication device. The allied army in the forest all felt strange, they didn’t know what Chu Tian was doing, having them lie in the forest like this. However, no one dared disobey Chu Tian, so they could only keep lying there.
The Heaven’s Punishment airship was a giant airship that was covered in reflective mirrors. These mirrors were not normal mirrors, but rather image transfer mirrors that could display various images and could also display image received at the same time, so it would make the front and back seem transparent.
Looking at it from a short distance, one would only see a faint outline. If they looked at it from a distance, it would be hard to distinguish with the naked eye. This was the airship made from their current technology and could be considered a spirit in the air.
“Locked onto target!”
“Altitude of around five thousand meters!”
“Wind speed normal, environment normal.”
“Activate a hundred bombs for high altitude bombing!”
The cabin of the airship opened to reveal the bomb bay. There were meter long bombs inserted inside that looked like black swords. The bombs were black all over and covered in large amount of ruins. One could vaguely see highly compressed crystal oil in the honeycomb shaped chambers.
The power of this bomb was equal to a hundred Source Energy Grenades.
This wave of bombs was equal to ten thousand Source Energy Grenades exploding at the same time.
“Activate!”
These long sword like bombs were activated and the runes on them began to glow. It was like energy began to flow through them and with a pu sound, they separated from the bombing bay, falling down towards the earth like meteors.
This speed was resoundingly fast.
This was the natural rate of falling!
This was because there was a weight increasing rune on the bombs, so once this rune was activated, the bomb would be several times heavier. Each bomb would become incomparably heavy and be dragged down by gravity, increasing their speed, so it could fall straight down and not be impaired by the wind.
A hundred bombs fell down from the vast skies and they weren’t very visible, like one hundred stones falling on a mountain.
However, when these tiny black spots touched the mountain.
Hong~~~!
The entire forest trembled as large amounts of light and heat were released. A terrifying energy cloud filled the air as it seemed like the entire mountain was shaking from an earthquake. That rushing wave of air shredded apart the surrounding forests.
“The first wave of bombing is complete.”
“The devastation rate is less than 5%!”
“Adjust our position. Prepare five hundred bombs for the second wave!”
This first wave of attacks was just testing the waters. The second wave had five hundred bombs, its might was several times that of before. When they simultaneously fell onto the mountain and exploded, the released light was as bright as the sun in the sky.
The small town’s army and the locals watching from the distance were all stunned by this terrifying scene.
They finally understood what was cracking the earth itself!
The part that made them most terrified was that they could not understand how this had happened at all. It was like this incomparably strange explosion had suddenly appeared!
The third wave of explosions.
This time was one thousand bombs!
The entire mountain peak was covered in bombs and a large part of it cracked off. Flames filled the surrounding forests and the earth was burnt black. The shockwave spread for an entire ten miles and all the trees were blown away. Even the entire air was completely fried and filled with dust and charcoal, blurring one’s view.
“Heaven’s Punishment’s task is complete!”
“Currently leaving current altitude!”
All the weapons in the Heaven’s Punishment airship had been released.
So they evacuated and returned to a safe altitude.
The speed and force of the attack was too strong, it had come too sudden. If one was at the center of the bombing, even a high level True Spirit Cultivator would find it hard to escape. When the Marauders weren’t prepared, they were suddenly bombed like this, perhaps their casualties would be 50-60% and that was already an optimistic estimation!
This large forest robber organization had not even begun to fight and did not even know what had happened before they were wiped out by Miracle Commerce.
“Everyone charge in! Kill the Marauders!” Chu Tian shouted into a loudspeaker, “This is the consequence of offending my Miracle Commerce!”
The several tens of thousands of soldiers saw Miracle Commerce’s amazing method and they were filled with morale. They immediately raised their weapons and charged into the sea of flames.
The lucky Marauders turned over the burning mountain rocks and crawled out with great difficulty, only to see a large amount of berserkers in heavy armour charging at them.
Those fierce Source Energy Weapons began to fire.
The sounds of pitiful cries rang out.
Six thousand berserkers and several thousand Source Energy Weapons, under the pressure of this firepower, how many of the heavily injured Marauders still escape? This was basically a slaughter!
“The chairman has given orders!”
“Kill them all!”
The allied army searched for the Marauders, killing one as soon as they found one. They didn’t say anything and definitely showed no mercy. To the Marauders, this was simply an unprecedented nightmare.
Eighty thousand Marauders!
An entire eighty thousand Marauders!
This was a highly mobile force with reconnaissance abilities. Although they couldn’t form a regime, they had still run rampant in the forest for many years and had never been truly exterminated before.
Now they had been exterminated in just a couple of minutes!
When the leader of the Marauders crawled out from the wreckage, he looked at the sea of fire around them, revealing very ugly expressions on his fierce face. He said in a terrified and angry voice, “Just what happened? Just what happened here!”
A spatial fluctuation appeared in front of him.
An elven girl had created a spatial crack.
The face of the Marauders’ leader changed, immediately sending out a punch which passed through Vivian, but couldn’t actually hit her. The Marauders’ leader’s cultivation was around the same as Vivian’s and he might be able to break the Void Escaping with his full strength, but the current him had been already injured. This attack had happened suddenly and he could not gather his strength at all.
When the Marauders’ leader was a bit stunned.
Vivian waved her hand.
A slight spatial cut that was hard to see with the naked eye passed through the Marauders’ leader and the leader’s eyes immediately slightly contracted. He slowly looked down with a face of disbelief, seeing his body being sliced from the middle, currently slowly splitting apart. The cut had been very smooth, filling him with fear.
No!
This is not real!
This must be a dream, it must be a nightmare!
The Marauders’ leader died not daring to believe what had happened, after all, he had just been inside the cave drinking with his brothers in celebration. This kind of earth shattering change happening in just an instant, no one would dare believe it!
“The leader is dead!”
“It’s over, the Marauders are over!”
That Marauders’ leader was killed by Vivian, the second leader had been killed by Miracle Commerce’s bombing, and the third leader had been killed by Chu Tian. All the high level leaders had been killed, so naturally the survivors of the Marauders had instantly collapsed.
How could they dare keep fighting?
There was no suspense to this battle, it was just a pure slaughter!
An infamous robber gang had been removed from the forest just like this!
