The Man Standing on Top of the Food Chain - Chapter 400

[Chapter 52 Nuclear Explosion]

Liu Feng said: “shide, compared to the danger of saving Lauren, the value of saving him is too low.”

Jin Guang saw Liu Feng staring at him so closely and said: “Don’t worry. I won’t Would you be willful enough to risk such a big risk to save him.”

After saying this, the atmosphere between the two fell into silence. This is already the sixth day since arriving on the Magic Star. Tomorrow was originally the day agreed upon to return to Earth after the first phase of the investigation was completed. But neither of them expected that starting from the fourth day, the expedition team not only lost contact with the earth, but was also pursued by more than a dozen waves of mages.

At first, it was just some high-ranking mages and low-ranking mages who cooperated with the army to encircle and suppress them. However, as the intensity of the battle continued to intensify, the magicians soon participated, which immediately put huge pressure on the entire expedition team.

Although with the powerful strength of the golden light, they were defeated one by one. However, the mages’ endless methods still brought huge trouble to the expedition team. Especially teleportation spells, charm spells, barriers and traps, etc., all put the expedition team members who lack magic detection methods into a desperate situation.

In addition to the death of the incapacitated Forland and the capture of Lauren, Brannells also lost an arm due to the disintegration ray. Thanks to his strong physique and the emergency treatment device of the nano-armor, he did not die.

Especially Jin Guang and the others found that even with Jin Guang’s high speed and the stealth ability of the nano armor, they could not get rid of each other no matter what. Even countless times, after they broke through, another group of mages blocked them in front.

Finally, after capturing a high-ranking mage, and after a round of bloody torture to extract a confession, they learned from each other that Jin Guang, as the strongest among their group, had been positioned by the prophetic mage of the Saint Laurent Empire. With the teleportation spell, they absolutely cannot escape.

So they divided into two teams. Tony and Ivan rushed to the crossing gate with Branniers. Liu Feng and Jin Guang simply faced the difficulty and fought back all the way. They also followed each other’s movements and tried to rescue Lauren.

“There are still two hours left, and their prophecy magic will take effect again. Let’s leave here quickly.”

At this moment, Liu Feng looked at the dangerous light flashing in his golden eyes and suddenly said: “You kid, you can’t Do you want to do some damage in this imperial capital?”

“Passive defense is not my style, and although there are many magicians here, as long as it is defense, it cannot be invulnerable.” Jin Guang said coldly: “Since I can’t save Lao According to Lun, in order to prevent him from revealing more information about the earth, we have to kill him.”

Hearing what Jin Guang said, Liu Feng’s breathing stagnated slightly. This was what he had always wanted to say but was worried that the other party would not agree. There is a plan that has not been mentioned yet.

Rather than going deep into the Mages Guild, which has layers of defenses, they can save Lauren, who is just an ordinary person, and directly attack with their current methods. It is much easier for them to eliminate or even destroy the entire building where the Mages Guild is located. Even if Lauren is not dead, she can still breathe out the evil spirit that she has been chasing like a dog for the past few days.

…

Two hours later.

On Brighton Street in the Revan Imperial Capital, a travel-worn messenger knocked on the door of the Mages Guild.

After a minute or two. With a creaking sound, a middle-aged servant opened the door, looked at the messenger in front of him with a condescending look, and asked, “Who are you looking for?” The

messenger’s voice sounded a little nervous. As if feeling the majesty of the Mages Guild, he said nervously: “This is a package addressed to Lord Laniers.”

The servant glanced at the messenger hesitantly and cautiously took the package from the other person’s hand. He said coldly: “I know, you can go.”

Before he finished speaking, there was a bang and the door of the Mage Guild was closed again.

The thick iron door almost hit the tip of the messenger’s nose, causing the messenger to take a step back. However, he did not show any indignation at the servant’s arrogance and rudeness. Instead, he raised his head and looked at the seven-story building. buildings, and laughed frivolously. Then he left.

…

The servant who received the package looked at the surface of the package and shook his head. Although there was nothing written on it, since the other party specified that it should be handed over to the Master Sorcerer, it was not something he could interfere with.

He rang the bell on the wall, and half a minute later, a puffing sound filled the air, and a pure black kitten with snow-white wings flew over.

That is the familiar summoned by this branch of the mage union. It exists as an elf that helps mages in their work and daily life. As purely magical creatures, they do not need to eat or drink, as long as they are given a few gems as salary every month.

The middle-aged servant was no longer surprised by the familiar’s existence. He placed the package in front of the familiar and said respectfully: “Lord Laniers’ package.”

The familiar nodded arrogantly, and then said in a very humane manner. It made a “meow” sound, as if to say that I got it.

Then he picked up the package in the servant’s hand with his mouth and flew towards the upstairs of the Mages Guild.

In an independent office, Laniers was sitting behind his desk reading a new magic magazine. The several improved techniques for protecting magic on it made his eyes light up and he smiled.

When the black cat familiar gently placed the package on his desk and called out “meow”, Raniers raised his head, then took out a gem from his arms and threw it Gave it to the familiar. The cat happily took the gem and put it into the small pocket on his belt. Then he rubbed Laniers’ hand flatteringly and flapped his wings and left his office.

Laniers looked at the package on his desk, which was completely empty. He frowned and said, “Didn’t you write the sender?”

While speaking, he gently moved his fingertips to detect biometrics. Detection magic such as toxin detection and magic item identification have been released one after another. As a mage, he is still very cautious, but as a magic star mage, it is obvious that his common sense restrains him.

The package in front of him was like a stone, not responding at all to the detection magic he released. Laniers murmured: “Is it gems, materials, magic books?”

As he spoke, he reached out and slowly opened the package.

What was inside the package was a wooden box, and in the center of the wooden box, a silver-white sphere was quietly placed inside. There is also a bright red number jumping on it.

“00:10”

The numbers on the Mondo continent are obviously not Arabic numerals, so Laniers can’t understand what this string of bright red, constantly beating characters means.

He just picked up the metal sphere out of curiosity. He tapped the metal shell with his fingers and said with a puzzled look on his face: “Is it a music box? But how are these jumping characters made?” While speaking,

he put the sphere back into the wooden box, and it was already there. Think of this thing as some kind of cultural relic made by an ancient mage.

At this time, the number on the sphere had jumped to “00:01”.

The next moment, a dazzling white light that could blind a mortal in an instant shot out from the sphere. Before Laniers had time to react, the pressure of more than one million tons and the high temperature of tens of thousands of degrees had completely wiped his body from this world.

Although the Mage Guild in the Imperial Capital is only a branch, there are hundreds of defensive magics deployed in it. Able to defend against frontal attacks from several mages.

But at this moment, the various protective magics in the Mage Guild, such as the protective force field, flame barrier, and silent field, all became as fragile as glass and shattered in an instant. Then the terrifying high temperature and shock wave instantly engulfed dozens of streets around the Mage Guild, turning into a huge fireball that slowly rose from the ground.

That night, countless poor people on the outskirts of the imperial capital seemed to have seen a huge mushroom planted near the center of the imperial capital.

Jin Guang looked at the flames rising into the sky in the distance, and said to Liu Feng through the nano-armored communicator: “How is it?” Liu Feng

‘s voice sounded a bit messy, as if he had been affected by the nuclear explosion, and he said intermittently: “Damn it, those lunatics from the Royal Academy of Sciences actually included such powerful tactical nuclear bombs in the nano-armor equipment.”

Jin Guang smiled, seeming to be very satisfied with the effect of the nuclear bomb. Since the Alliance fully mastered nuclear fusion and nuclear fission technology, this tactical micro-nuclear bomb has become a conventional weapon of the army. The original goal was to destroy the fortifications on the battlefield, but now they are used as gifts, and the effect is not good.

Jin Guang replied: “Don’t worry, this tactical nuclear bomb is very safe. Without authorization, even if you throw it into the magma, it will not explode. It’s a pity that each piece of nano armor is only equipped with one.” The explosion in the Imperial Capital

destroyed More than thirty buildings, including the Mages Guild, caused the deaths of five thousand people, including two magicians. The other three magicians stationed in the Magician’s Guild were able to escape due to the pre-set dimensional gate and teleportation.

But the radioactive dust that filled the sky throughout the imperial capital turned the ground for several kilometers into a restricted area for life. In the eyes of the people in Mondo Continent, this is considered a curse planted by the Silver Demon.

Not only were the three surviving magicians lingering on the bed, but countless civilians living in the imperial capital suffered from hair loss, blisters, nose and mouth bleeding, and sudden death due to the power of the curse. For a time, countless civilians and nobles fled the imperial capital out of fear of the Silver Demon’s curse.

And just as the news about the Silver Demons on the Mondo Continent is becoming more and more popular, an exchange in outer space is also heating up. (To be continued…)
