Chapter 978: The Plague (3)

Inside and outside Fanggang City, the battlefield stretches endlessly. The Undead Beast Legion, along with humans protected beneath the immortal sky, stand as the dominant forces ruling over this war-torn land.

Hundreds of millions of divine servants surrounded the city, while tens of millions of humans, along with countless blood-eyed creatures, launched an assault on its walls.

They want to destroy this city, and the only way is to break through the core area.

But now they are blocked at the first domain.

The shrinking of the area means that the battlefield is also getting smaller, and fewer people can approach the domain.

A hundred-headed, ten-thousand-meter-long venomous dragon surged through the heavens and earth, matching Lu Yu in power.

As Lu Yu grows stronger, these venomous dragons also become more powerful.

With power surpassing that of the city lord, he becomes a nightmare for his enemies.

From all directions, the humanoid warriors and divine servants were surging toward the other three walls.

Even if they couldn’t approach the city walls, just hovering in the sky above exerted immense pressure on the warriors within the city.

It can be said that outside Fanggang, the second field is now awash with blood.

Outside the city walls, the view extended as far as the eye could see, filled with people. An endless sea of humanity stretched from the heavens to the earth, blocking out even the light.

When the person in front fell in battle, someone from the rear immediately stepped forward to take their place.

An endless army kept surging into the harbor.

All the warriors in the city have been sent out. No matter how many times they die, as long as their bodies are not completely destroyed, they will immediately return to the battlefield.

They knew that if they lost, it would mean real death.

A hundred venomous dragons rolled and twisted in the air, supporting nearly one-third of the battlefield.

They share not only the power of Lu Yu, but also everything within Lu Yu’s power.

Including poisonous puppets!

A hundred-headed dragon, each head commanding millions of poisonous puppets.

Moreover, they are immortal毒 puppets; even if they are slain, they can be reborn within the poison gas.

For the divine servants and all the warriors attacking the city, this was their hell.

The battles here were extremely brutal.

But only the people of the City of Bones truly know what cruelty means.

More than a hundred city lords and tens of millions of warriors were trapped within the City of Bones.

However, now only the lord-class strong remain here, while the weaker ones are all crowded at the edges.

In the very center of the city, Lu Yu was surrounded and attacked by more than a hundred city lords.

He was already powerless to fight back.

Lu Yu was trapped in the center, facing pressure from all directions. His body was in tatters, with bones piercing through the skin in some places.

Bang!

More than ten city lords joined forces and struck Lu Yu so hard that he crashed into the Blood Tower, leaving half of his body severely battered.

The toxic puppet beside Lu Yu could be countered by a single city lord’s intervention.

Unless one is a million-strong divine servant-level expert, otherwise they pose no threat whatsoever to experts at the city lord level.

A city lord sneered and said, “Lu Yu, this is your weapon. Dying by your own weapon, you can at least feel at peace, right?”

The Hydra sneered, “Not dead yet, huh?”

“From now on, step aside.” A city lord coldly snorted, gesturing with his hand toward the Hydra and Luo Mo, indicating that the snake and the man should retreat.

Luo Mo sneered coldly, said nothing, and simply stepped back.

The Hydra’s nine pairs of eyes swept over the city lords, its voice cold as it hissed, “What’s the matter? Now you want to claim victory for yourselves!”

“Unconvinced? More than a hundred city lords turned their gaze toward the Hydra.”

“With just you pathetic humanoid creatures, do you even have the qualifications to compete before us?”

The Hydra’s gaze shot out a chilling blood-red light, as if ready to strike.

Luo Mo lightly patted the hydra’s body and said, “Let them attack. They actually think they can kill Lu Yu this way. How ridiculous.”

“What qualification does Lu Yu have to rival us now?” a city lord arrogantly sneered, “Even if he possesses strength surpassing that of a city lord, what can one person accomplish alone?”

“It’s you who are mad,” Luo Mo sneered. “Do you really think you’re superior just because you claim to be the voice of gods? You don’t understand this world at all. In fact—”

Boom! Boom!

As soon as Luo Mo finished speaking, a deafening roar erupted within Fanggang City, shaking the heavens and the earth.

The barrier of the second realm, which had suddenly vanished, reappeared.

The damaged city walls were being repaired piece by piece, and all the priests and warriors inside were teleported out of the harbor.

“Roar!”

A hundred venomous dragons soared through the sky, emitting earth-shaking roars as they charged toward the City of Bones.

One by one, poison dragons soared in midair, their bodies already contracting, before transforming into human forms identical to Lu Yu and rushing toward the upper part of the City of Bones.

At the same time, four illusionary demons also appeared around Lu Yu.

As their hands touched Lu Yu’s body, the air currents shifted once again.

They are replicating Lu Yu’s more powerful force.

At this moment, a hundred puppets had already lunged toward the more than a hundred city lords.

“Boom!”

More than a hundred city lords were left stunned.

They forgot that there are still hundreds of puppets in Fanggang.

These are all lifeless puppets created by replicating Lu Yu’s abilities.

Meanwhile, the numerous divine servants huddled together at the edge of the City of Bones, along with countless humanoid creatures and Blood-eyed warriors, were all stunned.

They were ice-cold all over, and their cold sweat had soaked through all their clothes.

They shouldn’t have come here at all—it’s practically a suicide mission!

At this level of combat, even three hundred million people wouldn’t be enough for Lu Yu to annihilate with a single punch.

The difference in strength is just too great.

After a hundred puppets stormed in, the situation turned around.

As early as when Lu Yu absorbed the power of five city lords, his strength had already surpassed that of an ordinary city lord.

However, even so, he was still just one person and could not stand against the combined forces of a hundred city lords.

Lu Yu would not fear even if fewer than five city lords joined forces against him.

A hundred names would be too many.

But now it’s different.

More than a hundred puppet warriors, like Lu Yu, had surpassed the strength of the city lord.

It was now Lu Yu and his companions’ turn to counterattack.

In just a single encounter, several puppets were subdued and then brought before Lu Yu.

“Let go!” the city lord protested, struggling fiercely.

Bang!

The puppet warrior behind him exerted force, pressing the city lord’s head down onto the ground.

Lu Yu’s large hands pressed down on several city lords, releasing an endless amount of toxic gas that surged into their five senses.

Several city lords trembled violently, letting out continuous screams of agony.

“Do you think that apart from soldiers, there’s no one else in Fanggang?” Lu Yu’s palm was not only covered in toxic flames, but blue flames appeared as well.

He was rapidly erasing their souls at top speed in order to transform their bodies into poison puppets.

The screams of several city lords grew even louder.

The distant cities were greatly alarmed, and all their previous arrogance vanished.

Just now, they were still suppressing Lu Yu with ease.

But when they turned around, they were completely defeated.

Lu Yu was in the process of transforming several city lords into toxic puppets. As a result, these puppets now exhibited the characteristics of city lord-level toxic puppets.

The defensive capabilities of Fanggang will only become stronger.

But they really can’t do anything!

Several city lords had their souls obliterated, and their bodies were rapidly decaying.

Lu Yu said coldly, “Do you even know who you are? A bunch of fools who think that strength and numbers alone can capture Fanggang. Don’t you understand how much effort and how many capabilities have been mobilized to defend this city? Fools—you’re nothing but a group of fools.”

Lu Yu rebuked him sternly.

Not a single person here dares to open their mouth to argue.

Because right now, Lu Yu is the king here, and whatever he says is right.

Since Lu Yu now has the strength, that’s enough.

In an instant, another ten city lords were pressed before Lu Yu. These people struggled, looking in terror at Lu Yu as he injected a deadly toxin into their bodies. Each one could only scream in agony.

The remaining city lords, fewer than a hundred, looked at Hydra and Luo Mo and shouted, “What are you waiting for? Why haven’t you acted yet?”

“Don’t attack,” Luo Mo looked at the Hydra and said, “The step Lu Yu has taken is certain death. He is using his body to forcefully suppress various powers. Once he reaches his limit, he will surely die! Moreover, even if we both attack now, it won’t work.”

Hydra glanced at Luo Mo, suddenly realizing something, and said, “Okay, I’ll listen to you.”

Hydra and Luo Mo quickly retreated and did not join the battlefield.

Hydra contemptuously glanced at the group of city lords who were desperately trying to defend themselves, waiting for them to die and scream in agony.

“Damn you, both of you will come to a bad end.”

“We’re going to die, and you won’t survive either.”

A group of city lords let out strange howls; some shouted at the divine servants, “What are you waiting for? Come over here and stop Lu Yu, stop him!”

The city lord’s voice echoed through the heavens and earth, but suddenly it was drowned out by a horn blast from the sky.

The abrupt, urgent horn caused the faces of many city lords to change drastically, and even the divine servants trembled violently.

The sound of the horn does not ring in a person’s ears; it strikes their heart directly and reverberates within their soul.

This is God urging them forward, and His wrath is about to erupt.

The City of Thirty Thousand Heavens descended, and countless divine servants arrived upon this land. Yet nearly a day had passed, and they still had not reduced this land to ruins.

It’s said that since the deities descended, apart from that one time with the soul master, this is the first instance!

It was just that during the time of the Soul Master, everything perished, and all that remains are legends passed down by later generations.

But this time it’s real.

The holy city descended, yet ultimately failed to complete its destruction.

God is telling all the divine servants that if they fail to kill Lu Yu, their souls will be completely destroyed.

Lu Yu said coldly, “It seems the gods don’t want me to live an easy life either. Are all the divine servants gathering just to destroy Fanggang?”

A city lord gritted his teeth and said, “Lu Yu, I’ll give you one chance. If you stop now and surrender, allowing us to kill you, I can guarantee that everyone in this city will safely make it to the Divine Star.”

“That’s right. If you surrender and allow yourself to be killed by us, the people of Fanggang City can all go to the Divine Star. I guarantee this with my life.”

“Hmph! By what right do you say that? For the sake of survival, you’ve long since surrendered both your dignity and your lives to the gods—you can give me your guarantees, and I might believe them. But here we fight precisely because we refuse to become puppets of the gods. Otherwise, why would we have waited until now?”

Lu Yu rushed毫不客气地toward the corner without hesitation and launched an attack against the many divine servants.

Meanwhile, hundreds of puppet warriors continuously captured city lords and brought them before Lu Yu, allowing him to devour them one by one.

Luomo and Jiutoushe watched from a distance, showing no intention to intervene.

Luo Mo believes that Lu Yu, in order to protect the city, keeps absorbing the power endlessly, and will eventually be unable to withstand it, leading to his death!

Moreover, their actions now don’t really signify anything.

Since the gods are angry, more divine servants will come. This battle won’t require them to lift a finger.

More than half of the fifty-seven city lords on the City of Bones were transformed into toxic puppets. Among them, Lu Yu had already devoured fifteen city lords.

Not a single one of the thousands of divine servants remained; they all became poisonous puppets.

Lu Yu’s poison coursed through the veins of the living in the City of Bones, chilling their blood and making their souls tremble.

Because the poison became a terrible plague, spreading uncontrollably with no one able to find a cure!

As Lu Yu shifted his gaze toward the humanoid warrior, more Overlord-level fluctuations had already begun to appear in the sky. This time, it wasn’t just hundreds—it was thousands, and even more fluctuations continued to emerge.

All divine servants across the Earth are rushing over.

Because the horn of God has sounded, they must first kill Lu Yu and destroy this city!

A city lord of Shen City glanced around, then roared, “Set up the Immortal Sky Barrier and prepare to engage in a head-on battle with Fanggang!”

Lu Yu also glanced at the sky, pointed his finger toward the heavens, and commanded, “Attack!”

Boom!

Hundreds of puppet warriors soared into the sky, each surrounded by rolling waves of black aura. Among them, fifty-seven toxic puppets at the city lord level appeared.

One hundred puppet warriors are equivalent to having 5,700 city lord-level poison puppets.

Lu Yu prepared to kill all one thousand city lords before the other city rulers could arrive.

“That’s ruthless!” Luo Mo shuddered, instantly understanding Lu Yu’s intention.

Lu Yu is going to destroy all three hundred thousand divine cities!
