I Build a Floating City in the Apocalypse – Chapter 95

Chapter 95

“Charge! Kill them!”

Teng Huadong’s face suddenly changed, and he roared, charging forward with his sword and shield. Fang Bai shook his head slightly.

A Fireball Spell Scroll was activated.

Just a second later, the fireball appeared and sped away. Teng Huadong twisted his body to dodge, but the fireball instantly lost stability the moment it passed him.

“Boom!”

“Dodging a fireball? Are you kidding me?”

Teng Huadong was sent flying by the explosion. At that moment, Fang Bai sensed that Teng Huadong was using a Water Shield Spell Scroll.

Should I interrupt it?

Fang Bai thought for a moment and decided not to interfere, letting Teng Huadong activate the Water Shield to save his life. However, while he had a Water Shield, the people around him didn’t.

The dozen or so people around him were sent flying by the fireball explosion. The one directly hit by the fireball was instantly obliterated. Even those within the damage radius who weren’t physically injured fell to the ground, bleeding from their seven orifices.

Just like how a howitzer doesn’t rely on shrapnel to inflict damage, the most terrifying aspect of the Fireball Spell isn’t the flames from the explosion itself, but the terrifying shockwave.

Can wearing heavy armor block a Fireball Spell?

That’s the most ridiculous idea ever. Even if the fireball can’t penetrate the heavy armor, the shockwave is enough to pierce through it and turn a person’s internal organs into mush.

A single fireball had caused the deaths of more than a dozen people. At this moment, everyone fell silent.

When Fang Bai pulled out several Spell Scrolls from his pack and handed them to Wang Kai and Wang Xiong, everyone who was surrounding them stopped.

“Watch the sides and the rear. If anyone charges, use these. There are plenty of scrolls.”

Fang Bai’s calm voice echoed across the battlefield. One side had only about twenty people, the other had three to four hundred. Yet, at this moment, the three to four hundred felt an unprecedented fear.

“Charge and kill him! He’s alone! He can’t have that many Spell Scrolls!”

The battered Teng Huadong roared, activating a Fireball Spell Scroll towards Fang Bai as he shouted.

Fang Bai could still interrupt it, but he let Teng Huadong activate it, simply throwing out a Blood-red Shield Scroll.

Weng!

A blood-red barrier formed. The fireball’s explosion shattered the barrier, but the fireball lost its killing power.

“Spell Scrolls?”

Fang Bai shook his head slightly and activated five Fireball Spell Scrolls at once. Five fireballs instantly sped away, sending chills down everyone’s spines.

“Here are five for you.”

Teng Huadong’s eyes widened. Even he didn’t have a second Water Shield Spell Scroll!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Sounds like howitzer barrages echoed in everyone’s ears. Terrifying flames engulfed Teng Huadong, who was glowing with skill light.

The residual waves killed seven or eight more people, even though they had already started running.

At this moment, unprecedented fear finally gripped their hearts, crushing their last line of defense.

“Run!”

In an instant, the three to four hundred strong force dispersed, fleeing towards the wilderness.

Chen Yujiao, who had just arrived, saw this scene and her pupils shrank sharply. Beside her, the Survival Society’s vice president stared wide-eyed, unable to believe what he was seeing.

At this time, Huang Mao, who was hiding in the base, pushed aside the fleeing people and saw the scene of Teng Huadong being engulfed.

“Brother-in-law!!!”

The flames gradually dissipated, and Teng Huadong’s charred body shattered on the ground. Only the blackened armor could still prove the identity of these corpses.

Thud!

The shield that had been blown away landed at Huang Mao’s feet.

Fang Bai turned to look at Huang Mao and said with a smile,

“He’s your brother-in-law? He must have been good to you. Well, he’s dead.”

“Huang Mao, let me ask you, was this fun?”

“Fang Bai!!”

“What’s up? Didn’t you start this? What, can’t you handle it now?”

“Just you wait, I will make you pay!”

In the midst of heart-wrenching pain, Huang Mao suddenly regretted his actions, finally realizing his absurdity and mistakes. Unprecedented regret surged in his heart.

But there was no turning back.

“Just you wait, I will avenge him!”

Huang Mao glared at Fang Bai with hatred, gritting his teeth, then turned and ran.

“Don’t run, let’s do it now.”

Fang Bai’s voice sounded, and a fireball whizzed past. A skill light flickered on Huang Mao’s body, and his speed suddenly increased. Coupled with the distance between him and Fang Bai, he actually managed to escape the fireball’s shockwave.

Fang Bai threw another fireball, but one after another, the fireballs were dodged. Was this Huang Mao actually hiding his true strength?

However, no matter how much strength he hid, he still looked extremely battered under the barrage of fireballs. Huang Mao, with internal injuries and blood at the corner of his mouth, glared at Fang Bai resentfully, then his speed increased again.

This was a typical protagonist template. Logically, Fang Bai should be running out of Spell Scrolls, or be reluctant to use them, or look down on Huang Mao and not bother to kill him.

But…

Fang Bai tilted his head slightly, looking at the fleeing Huang Mao. He grabbed a thick stack of Fireball Spell Scrolls and tossed them into the sky. Amidst the violent fluctuation of fire elemental energy, more than a dozen fireballs appeared at once, speeding towards Huang Mao.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The fireballs landed and exploded one after another. The terrifying explosions directly covered a radius of dozens of meters around Huang Mao. The horrifying flames and shockwaves engulfed him, instantly shattering him into pieces!

Ignoring all the fancy tricks!

“So much drama for nothing.”

Fang Bai turned to look at Chen Yujiao and the stunned vice president of the Survival Society. The vice president instantly reacted and turned to run, but the next moment, he stared in disbelief at the dagger protruding from his chest.

Puchi!

“Village Chief Fang, this man wanted to run, so I killed him for you.”

“Oh.”

After Fang Bai uttered an “oh”, he weighed the backpack in his hand and looked at Chen Yujiao. Chen Yujiao felt a strong sense of fear surge in her heart. She felt as if she was hanging on the edge of a cliff, waiting for Fang Bai’s judgment.

“Go back to where you came from.”

The moment Fang Bai spoke, Chen Yujiao’s legs went weak. If it weren’t for the person beside her supporting her, she would have almost fallen to the ground. She steadied herself, quickly thanked him, and then led her people away quickly.

After Chen Yujiao and the others left, Fang Bai looked at the scorched earth and zipped up his backpack, putting it back on.

“I thought the resistance would be fierce, but it’s over just like that. Wasted my time.”

“It was just a matter of an apology, was it necessary?”

Fang Bai curled his lips. Wang Kai, who was still in shock beside him, came back to his senses and said,

“Running is normal. They’re just trying to make a living, not really risking their lives.”

“It would be strange if they didn’t run. But Village Chief, didn’t you say you were here to reason with them? Is this how you reason?”

Fang Bai nodded matter-of-factly.

“Yes, isn’t this reasoning?”

Fang Bai pointed to the scorched earth.

“Isn’t this reasoning powerful enough?”

“Powerful!”

“Look over there, isn’t this reasoning far-reaching?”

“Far-reaching.”

Fang Bai nodded and said calmly,

“That’s right. Reasoning lies within this range and distance. Within this range, within this distance, my words are reasoning.”

Wang Kai suddenly understood. He had grasped the concept.
