Magic? My Iron Torrent will sweep it all away!

"Attention all units! Detonate the antimatter bomb immediately if the barrier breaks!"

Inside the northwest city wall, three armored transport vehicles had already been parked in their designated positions. The antimatter device inside the first vehicle was deactivated, and the red indicator light flashed regularly.

That was a trump card laid out in front of Aker, and also a deterrent that Zheng Jinren had specifically left for him.

Aker's eight tentacles intertwined in mid-air, their black afterimages merging into one in an instant.

boom--!

A deafening crash echoed throughout the entire base.

The northwest barrier caved into a huge arc, and countless golden runes burst outward from the point of contact. The array nodes on the city wall exploded one after another, and fragments of light rained down like a storm.

【warn! 】

[The barrier has completely failed!]

Zheng Jinren's voice suddenly rang out.

"Now!"

Outside the city wall, two Pangu mechs had rushed into the 300-meter range of Aker, and the deployment pods on their chests opened simultaneously.

The two channeled their spiritual energy into their spatial rings, and a silver-white antimatter device emerged from the void, hovering in front of the mecha.

A blinding light immediately burst forth!

Just as Aker broke through the barrier and was about to crawl into the hole to avoid the explosion, he saw two silver-white devices appear out of thin air, and his scarlet pupils suddenly shrank to slits.

There was an aura on it that posed a deadly threat to me!

Damn!

It had clearly sensed repeatedly that there was nothing inside those two mechs that posed a threat to it, so how did they appear?

These two-legged creatures are actually playing dirty tricks!

Aker descended even faster, his extreme speed creating a violent gust of air as he shot out of the giant hole.

Brett risked his life to prove that this weapon must never be touched!

All of this happened in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, the barrier enveloping the Kona base had not completely dissipated, and countless golden fragments of light fell from the sky, like a silent rain of light.

Akel plunged into the cave entrance, the hundred-meter-wide passage behind him swirling up rock debris and dust, the collapsed rock strata sealing off his escape route.

At the same time, inside the northwest city wall, three antimatter devices were unlocked.

In the next instant, three beams of white light lit up at the same time, suppressing all colors in the world to a ghastly white!

Aker had already gone deep underground, his figure so fast that it tore through the air. The rocks on the cave walls were scraped off layer by layer by his high-speed body, and the fragments of rock shot backward like a rainstorm.

It descended all the way down, and in the blink of an eye, it had plunged hundreds of meters into the depths.

The destructive energy emanating from above grew stronger and stronger, but Aker did not stop; instead, he revealed a cold smile.

Two came from the two manned mechs, and three came from inside the city wall.

As expected, the group of two-legged beasts made their move after the barrier shattered, but unfortunately, they were still a step too late.

The thick rock layer will absorb most of the impact, and the shield is enough to block the aftershocks. As long as it continues to descend, no matter how strong the five explosions on the surface are, they won't be able to do anything to it.

"Despair! Your explosions can't catch me! Hahahaha!!"

Aker laughed and continued charging downwards, the vibrations pressing down on him in layers, as if the entire earth was collapsing.

It could already picture the desperate expressions on the faces of those two-legged creatures.

Suddenly, its massive body came to a sudden halt.

A deadly sense of danger is coming from ahead!

The danger was hidden deep within the rock strata, and it was only now that it noticed it.

A look of shock and rage flashed in Aker's crimson eyes.

But it was too late.

Just as it was about to turn, a white light, big enough to swallow everything, shone from the depths of the tunnel.

boom--!

The underground instantly lost its color.

The destructive storm unleashed by the antimatter bombs attacking from both sides completely engulfed Aker, along with the surrounding earth-burrowing dragons, twisted rock layers, and the newly dug escape tunnel, in the white light!

Its roar was only half-finished before it was crushed into nothingness by the terrifying energy tide.

……

Inside the command center, Zheng Jinren gripped the main control console, staring intently at the large screen.

Although the screen went blank the instant the explosion occurred.

"Hahahaha!! Die!!!"

He laughed loudly.

His plan succeeded!

He had given an order long before Aker focused on attacking the barrier.

Send a Dilong-type burrowing robot carrying an antimatter bomb, taking advantage of the chaos of the battlefield, to infiltrate underground and head deep into Aker's escape route.

This isn't a sure-fire strategy; it's more like a test.

Aker's domain is extremely strong, and its sense of danger is unreasonably sharp. As long as it detects the underground anomaly in advance, it will inevitably abandon the all-out attack, giving the Kona base a chance to catch its breath.

For Zheng Jinren, that was enough.

But Aker didn't notice!

This was an unexpected surprise.

Perhaps it was the destructive aura constantly being released by the three antimatter bombs on the surface that drew away most of Aker's attention.

Perhaps it was the barrage of artillery fire from the city walls, the roar of the demonic tide, and the restraint from the mechs that turned the entire battlefield into a boiling pot of oil.

Or perhaps the antimatter bomb underground was hidden by the thick rock layer, and Aker, believing he had a way out, finally relaxed his vigilance a little.

In short, due to a combination of factors, the plan succeeded!

……

The city wall was now a blinding, blazing white.

Five suns rose simultaneously, one inside and one outside the northwest city wall.

The twenty-meter-high alloy outer city wall, the gun emplacements, warehouses, guard robots, charging demons, mountains of wreckage, and the barren rock layers shattered by artillery fire all vanished in the light.

The area around the epicenter is now completely devoid of any remaining buildings, reduced to nothingness.

This is the violent rule that antimatter can annihilate everything!

The dense tide of demons rushing towards the city wall in the distance didn't even have time to scream before they were blown into the air by the shock that spread in all directions. The remaining demons were like dust swept away by a giant's slap, flying everywhere.

Meanwhile, underground, the power of the sixth antimatter bomb was rapidly being transmitted.

The earth suddenly bulged upwards, and the rock layers buried deep underground were torn apart by terrifying energy. The shattered rocks shot into the sky and then turned into fine dust at the edge of the white light.

On the surface, underground, and in the sky, six annihilating energies overlapped, making the entire Northwest Defense Zone seem as if a piece had been forcibly erased from the map.

........

command center.

"The epicenter area has lost all optical observations!"

"Large-scale offline status of the epicenter!"

"All defensive structures in the northwestern outer city area have disappeared!"

"The rock structure is collapsing rapidly!"

Inside the command center, just as the report was being broadcast, an even more terrifying shockwave swept across several kilometers and slammed into the core base.

The inner barrier of the Kona base suddenly lit up brightly!

boom--!

The shockwave struck the pale gold barrier, causing the entire core base to shudder violently. Tables, chairs, terminals, and seats in the control hall slid to one side simultaneously, and several staff officers fell to the ground along with their equipment.

Dust fell from the ceiling, several lights went out on the spot, and the control panel screen flickered wildly.

[The core barrier is under pressure!]

[External energy impact exceeds safety threshold!]

[Barrier integrity: 72%!]

[Barrier integrity: 58%!]

[Barrier integrity: 43%!]

Zheng Jinren was thrown back half a step by the impact, his shoulder slamming heavily against the edge of the control panel.

He didn't look at his bleeding forehead, but gripped the table with his fingers to steady himself.

Through the window, the white light outside had not yet dissipated, and the sky to the northwest was a ghastly white as a terrifying explosion was churning and rising into the air.

At that moment, another muffled bang came from below the base. The aftershocks of the underground explosion caused a large area of ​​rock to collapse, and the entire hall tilted again. Screams and the sound of equipment crashing mingled together.

Immediately afterwards, the World Tree's root system, buried deep underground, suddenly tightened, its thick roots penetrating the rock layers and locking the continuously collapsing strata in place.

The tremors lasted for a long time before gradually subsiding.

Zheng Jinren straightened up, leaning on the control panel.

"All units should report their findings."

"The medical team is examining the wounded!"

"Confirm whether Aker is dead!"
