Tower Defense: Public Enemy

Chapter 582 Has the City of Bliss Been Breached?

Stormy Seas, Elysium!

The ancient mechanical god Nordwa stood atop the head of a giant steel dragon, gazing at the gates of Elysium City ahead.

"I've finally waited for this day! Hahaha, hahahahaha!"

Nordow laughed heartily, unabashedly displaying his excitement.

Behind him, a fleet of warships stood.

In the air and on the sea, a large number of combat mechs were active, countless mechanical ravens were circling, and countless missiles were hovering in mid-air, aiming at Elysium.

Splash, splash...

Two enormous mechanical octopuses dragged the corpse of the Fighting Tiger King into the sea.

A dozen or so players holding long spears stood atop the mechanical octopus's head, pointing and gesturing excitedly at the corpse of the Fighting Tiger King.

This gatekeeper is the last line of defense before the gates of the City of Bliss.

buzzing buzzing...

A hundred-meter-long drill-shaped warship was advancing towards the city gate. The drill bit spun wildly, emitting a deep sound, and the seawater on both sides of the warship surged into the air to a height of more than ten meters.

"Break down the city gates!"

As Nordwa shouted, the drill warship slammed into the gates of Elysium like a madman. The enormous impact and tearing force caused the thick gate to emit a tooth-grinding metallic scraping sound, sparks flashed, and the gate began to slowly deform.

High in the sky, there was a giant, disc-shaped spaceship. Around the spaceship, torpedo-like shells were arranged neatly and densely. The shells hovered in mid-air, but seemed ready to fall to the ground at any moment and level everything.

In the cockpit of the disc-shaped spaceship, [Infinite], the actual ruler of the Temple of Technology, sat quietly in a high-backed chair, his eyes half-closed, his body relaxed, his back against the chair back.

Before him stood twelve players dressed in combat suits. Some had three eyes, some resembled birds, some were mechanical beings, and others were Ultraman players, God players, and so on...

They are the Twelve Sages of the Temple of Technology, and also the highest-ranking people in the Temple of Technology below [Infinity]. They are all students of [Infinity].

"This war lasted three whole years, and finally, we conquered all the outer islands of Paradise City!"

"Simply building towers and defending without any exploration is tantamount to waiting to die!"

"The battle is not over yet; Bliss City still has the ability to defend itself."

"I foresee a bloody battle after the city gates are breached!"

"Nordhua has done his best. Don't be fooled by their current numbers; if they go to war with those guys from Bliss City, they'll probably just be cannon fodder!"

"Let the True Dragon Cult and those evil gods take action. After all, it's a joint operation, and they'll also get a share of the spoils after the fall of Bliss City."

"A sacred territory of modern gamers, capable of withstanding our four-way coalition for three whole years, is something to be proud of..."

The twelve scientific sages were discussing the matter.

[Infinite] seemed to be listening quietly, then suddenly said, "The Great Venerable Huangtian and Morty have arrived. Be careful what you say!"

The twelve technological sages immediately bowed in agreement, then respectfully stood aside and remained silent.

Shortly after, the control room door opened, and two tall figures entered together.

One of them, dressed in a yellow robe and wearing an imperial crown, was none other than Huang Tianzhenlong.

The other one, dressed in a nun's robe, appears to be the great evil god Bibius, but she now calls herself Tusgar Morty and is actually one of the three Great Old Ones.

Since the start of the war of faith, these two have become important figures. After entering the control cabin, they casually nodded to the twelve technological sages and finally bowed to [Infinity].

Huang Tianzhenlong said, "Your Majesty, we have come here specifically to remind you not to be careless. The City of Bliss is far from being taken."

"Oh?" Wuxian opened his eyes wide, his pupils glowing blue. "What do you mean?"

Huang Tianzhenlong said, "There are experts in the City of Bliss!"

A wise sage of technology asked, "Does Your Excellency mean the shame of the Demon King, the shame of the Evil God, the shame of the Supreme God, the shame of the plunderer, or are you referring to those four divine knights?"

Huang Tianzhenlong shook his head and said, "None of them! The experts I'm talking about are the disciples of the Holy God Palace! You all should know about the Holy God Palace, right? Half of those players who call themselves disciples of the Holy God Palace come from the Temple of Light and the Temple of Fallen Gods. They are quite powerful and have always maintained close ties with Bliss City. They haven't shown themselves before, but when Bliss City faces a life-or-death situation, I think they will take action. Moreover, the Lord of Bliss City himself should not be underestimated. Don't forget that he controls the Other Shore World and the Black Sphere Cage."

"A disciple of the Holy Temple?"

【Infinite】 narrowed his eyes and slowly said, "The Temple of Light and the Temple of Fallen Gods are aloof and have always kept a low profile in the war of faith. They have never sided with other forces. Now that some players are closely connected with Bliss City, the root of the problem must be within the Holy Palace. Perhaps we should consider whether we should go and explore that Holy Palace."

Tuskar Morty said, "Your Majesty, I know you are one of the earliest players to enter the Divine Realm in the First Era. Don't you know about the Holy Palace? That place of inheritance has existed for a very long time, since the First Era. The guardians within are not something that ordinary gods can deal with. If you want to go and touch the Holy Palace, I'm afraid I'm being blunt, but it's not a wise move."

"I am aware of what Ms. Morty is saying!"

[Infinite] gazed at the cockpit ceiling, "But what if I have enough strength?"

"Sufficient strength?" Morty narrowed his eyes. "What level have you reached now?"

"Ha ha!"

[Infinite] chuckled, "Since the simulated universe was completed, my power has been unrestrained."

"Without any constraints?" Morty paused for a moment, seemingly with a deeper meaning, then said, "Alright, if you go to touch the Holy Temple, I'll go with you!"

"Haha, as expected of an Old One, your heroic spirit remains undiminished!"

[Infinite] then looked at Huangtian Zhenlong and asked, "Where is the Great Venerable?"

"Me? I'll pass." Huang Tianzhenlong waved his hand. "I'm just a Void God, far weaker than the two of you. I won't join in the fun, lest I perish for no reason."

"You're too modest, Your Excellency!" Morty smiled. "Don't pretend here. You are the Lord of the Void Gods, not the Lord God of the Void. If you still say you're weak, then all the strong people in the entire God Realm are weaklings."

"Hehe!" Huang Tianzhenlong shook his head to himself. "Let's go back to the City of Bliss. I have urgently mobilized my eight dragon gods to fight, but I'm afraid they can only hold off the four scoundrels and the four knights of the divine realm at most."

Morty said, "My men are all useless; I don't have a single high-end fighter. However, I plan to personally meet with the Lord of Bliss City. The third brother is trapped in the black sphere cage by him; this is a good opportunity to rescue him!"

"With Your Majesty personally taking action, there's no chance of failure!" Huang Tianzhenlong nodded and then looked at [Infinity].

[Infinite] waved his hand and said, "The Twelve Sages, go forth and stop those disciples of the Holy Palace! What does the Great Venerable think?"

"Alright!" Huang Tianzhenlong nodded. "Then it's about time we made our move. The gates of Bliss City should have been breached!"

Just as Huang Tianzhenlong said, at this moment, the city gate of Bliss City had been breached, and there were no guards behind the gate, but the square of Bliss City was filled with orderly ranks.

In the cold and desolate atmosphere, the soldiers, officers, and marshals had bright and determined eyes.

"All troops, listen to my command..."

A voice rang out.

The person who shouted was Zhang Taichu.

His face remained unchanged, but his hair had turned completely white. He stood at the very front of the crowd, wearing battle armor, carrying a long sword, and with a solemn expression.

This most senior marshal of Bliss City knew that what was to come would be the most difficult battle in the history of Bliss City, and also the battle that would determine the fate of Bliss City.

"All troops, heed my command!" he shouted again. "Improve your red armor! Fight to the death, and perish with the divine city!"

"A bloody battle, a shared destiny for our divine city!"

The soldiers shouted in unison and quickly equipped themselves with red tiger-head hats, tiger-head boots, tiger-soul knives, and other gear.

That's a totem set!

The totem sets in Bliss City come in various colors, and those who possess the red totem set are the elite among elites of Bliss City.

This elite force originally numbered five thousand men, a formidable army that Zhang Taichu had built over three hundred years.

They can slay gods!

However, just one day ago, more than three thousand of these elite troops had already perished on the battlefield of the prehistoric world.

That war also rendered the Beast Warships and the Pacific Ark obsolete.

Now, without exception, all the survivors have gathered here, facing death without fear.

"We're still here!"

A rough voice rang out, and Kumbaddon stepped through the air, with the phantom of the throne of savagery and conquest behind him.

Kumbadon has now reached level 910. He is the owner of the Throne of Savagery and Conquest and is now known as the Knight of the Gods.

There are three other Divine Knights: Yuan Yuanzi, the kung fu master who controls the bronze and blazing swords; Xiuya, who controls the Primal and Technological Throne; and the Blue Moon Cult Master, who controls the temple of all living beings and faith.

These four Divine Knights are the strongest fighting force in Bliss City. Through arduous training, their levels have all exceeded 900, making them beings at the level of main gods.

Xiuya, Yuan Yuanzi, and the Blue Moon Cult Leader followed closely behind Kunbaton, standing in front of 2000 elite red-armored soldiers.

Boxer Akxi also appeared, and his level was even higher than that of Quinbaton and others, reaching 950!

Looking at him, Aksi is exactly the same as he was hundreds of years ago, but he has shed his flesh and blood body and is now a divine being who has mastered the unique divine power of "Cosmic Boxing".

Akxi arrived at the front of the square and nodded to Kumbhandon and the others.

Following them were the God of the Fighting Division, the players of the Beast Division, and the Guardian Beast.

Behind them, on the watchtower of Mushroom Castle, the Lord of Bliss City yawned meaningfully, then shook his head.

His expression showed deep exhaustion.

Prime Minister Deedlit of Mushroom Castle served him a cup of tea, but didn't know what to say.

"It was bound to happen eventually! There's nothing we can do about it. Right now, I'm just hoping for the third brother's luck!"

The Lord of Bliss City stood up and said, "Let's go, it's our turn to make our appearance!"

"yes!"

Someone nearby responded: they were Cardinals, Cthulhu, Krul, Li Daxing, and Qiukas.

These individuals were players from the previous generation. After hundreds of years of cultivation, their levels have now exceeded 900, making them god-level beings.

Currently, in Bliss City, there are only four Divine Knights and a few others whose level exceeds 900.

Other players or NPCs, such as the Lord of Bliss City, Zhao Zilong, Qi Xinge, as well as Ao Ao Te Lai Di and De Gang, are currently stuck at level 900, which can only be considered as peak upper-level gods, not main gods.

When the Lord of Bliss City led his team to Bliss City Square, the battle had already broken out.

Countless mechs, mechanical ravens, and combat mechs surged through the broken city gates and into the sky, devoid of emotion and driven solely by the desire to kill.

The battle was extremely fierce from the very beginning.

The mechanical god Nordwa, riding a mechanical dragon, also charged over. He displayed his brutality without restraint, charging straight at the Ironblood army. The mechanical dragon was huge and extremely destructive; with a single dive, it caused a large number of casualties.

The Lord of Bliss City gave a soft hum and released the Lotus of the Other Shore without hesitation. Immediately afterwards, 365 level 900 Thunder Pool Warriors flew out from it.

This is a powerful ally.

The Lord of Bliss then stepped onto the lotus flower on the other shore and unfolded the lotus world by escaping to the heavens. Once the lotus world was formed, the Twelve Witch Ancestors appeared, and the Great Array of Heavenly Gods and Demons displayed its power.

Following closely behind Lei Chi, Cardinal Z, who sat on the Blood Bone Throne, also released his minions. Cthulhu and Krul also unleashed their abilities, and Mecha Angela quickly appeared. The God of Plunder, Li Daxing, was a sniper who held a gun in the back, aimed, and shot!

As a result, the mechanical soldiers, combat mechs, and mechanical ravens rushed in from outside the city, and died even faster.

The entire Elysium City Plaza was like a merciless meat grinder. The mechanical god Nordhua dared not act recklessly and obediently rode the mechanical dragon flying knife team to the rear.

Just then, a golden cloud drifted down from the sky, and on the cloud stood eight people, who were none other than the eight Dragon Gods, the strongest in the Yellow Heaven Sect!

The Eight Dragon Gods are all illusory gods, but they are not ordinary illusory gods.

Their levels are all over 900, they are Void Gods!

"Oh no, the Eight Dragon Gods are here!"

The Lord of Bliss City felt pressured when he saw them approaching from afar.

At this very spot, boxer Akxi leaped into the air, his body radiating a blinding light that kept the numerous mechanical minions at bay.

"By the rules of my cosmic boxing, I will fight you fairly. Please step into the ring!"

This being, who became a divine being by studying the divine origin manual, is now using his methods.

Wherever his gaze fell, above the golden clouds, one of the Eight Dragon Gods vanished instantly and was transported to a boxing ring in some unknown space-time. His opponent was not the boxer Akshi, but Kumbadon, who held the throne of savagery and conquest!

Over the centuries, Akshi's divine power has also increased, and now it can no longer only affect himself.

"Second group!"

Aksi shouted again, unleashing divine power. The second dragon god also vanished into the void. His opponent was the kung fu master Yuan Yuanzi.

Next, Akxi followed the same method, sending the remaining dragon gods into the boxing ring one by one. Their opponents were Xiuya, the head of the Blue Moon family, and the god-level Katinaz, Cthulhu, Krullu, and Li Daxing!

Finally, Akxi looked at the mechanical god Nordhua and said, "Your opponent is me!"
