Chapter 590 281: Primordial Spirit Core
Only Erin's intervention can repair the shattered vitality and soul qi at the moment of the attack and return them to their original bodies.
Unlike a simple hammer swing, rescuing people consumes a great deal of energy and heart power, enough for Erin to smash hundreds of ghost generals.
Even for a lower-tier deity like Erin, doing all of this requires utmost concentration; any slight mistake might prevent the rescue of everyone.
To put it bluntly, the divine power "wasted" by Erin in saving people far exceeds the power of faith the saved villagers could provide; this is undoubtedly a losing deal, and a heavily losing one at that.
Yet when Erin acts, there is not a moment's hesitation or weighing of worth.
Wu Chang looked up at Erin, observing the joy on her face, and shook his head with a wry smile.
Silly girl, but considering how cute your smile is, you're forgiven.
The sorrows and joys of people are not the same; while Erin was joyous for saving everyone, in the cave, Jin Canyun was losing his composure.
In the mystical ceremony, apart from the C-position bronze medal, all twelve national treasures shattered.
The fracturing was uniform with no gaps between them, indicating that the twelve ghost generals had no chance to fight back against their opponent.
Undoubtedly, the assailant was a god, a true god.
The opponent seemed to feel this was not enough to display their strength; not only did they easily defeat the twelve ghost generals, but they also saved the lives of the sacrifices and restored their consciousness.
Humiliation, blatant humiliation!
Li Zaisi, it's you again!
Returning the sacrifices as they were, does this imply the previous quantity was insufficient, wanting him to do it again?
Fine, then he will summon a bigger one, and make Li Zaisi and his invited god pay for their arrogance and conceit.
Jin Canyun was so furious that he nearly broke his teeth biting down; he cursed and was about to instruct his men to control the now-awake sacrifices, extract all remaining relics, and re-summon the ghost god.
But before he could open his mouth, a baseball bat swung from behind, the bat head striking Jin Canyun's temple, sending him flying sideways, twitching twice on the ground before falling silent.
Wielding the baseball bat, covered in dust and mud like he had been dug out from the dirt, Li Yubin swung the bat, shattering the array node previously controlled by Jin Canyun.
Before anyone could react, Li Yubin was already swinging the bat to crush the head of another extremist follower.
With leader Jin Canyun's sudden death and the sacrifices regaining consciousness, outside, the Stellar Gang with over ten thousand people blocked the entrance.
The cave in Tan Mountain turned into chaos.
After a brief disorder, with the involvement of several extremist bishops, the scene was brought back under control.
Four extremist bishops, along with over twenty priests, brandished rifles forcing Li Yubin into a corner.
Guns are strictly controlled in Gao Mu Country; in its media, one might see someone kill an entire gang with just a leftover large bone or slap an entire gang unconscious, but rarely see gangs using guns.
Reality isn't that exaggerated, but it illustrates the strict control over firearms.
The Silent Route Plane highly amplifies firearm damage; even with slightly superhuman body attributes, Li Yubin couldn't withstand a volley from over twenty guns.
In a critical moment, a familiar voice came from the cave entrance.
"Activate firepower mode."
The crowd, drawn by the words, turned to see Wu Chang, dressed in a white suit, wearing tinted sunglasses, riding a mountain bike, holding an exaggeratedly large handgun pointed at the extremist followers.
The extremist followers looked at their own guns, then at the revolver in Wu Chang's hand.
What is this supposed to mean, you want to gunfight us with a handgun against our over twenty rifles?
Before anyone could grasp this, Wu Chang already pulled the trigger.
A beam of light shot out from the oversized gun muzzle, dispersing as it moved as Wu Chang aimed it near the extremist followers, transforming into a cluster of laser beams around twenty meters from Li Yubin, composed of countless hair-thin lasers.
Whiz, whiz, whiz.
The air resounded with a rain-like dense sound, with each sound representative of a beam piercing a human body.
The dense, dazzling light made Li Yubin instinctively squint; when the noise subsided and she opened her eyes again, she found that where she stood was now covered in dense craters, smooth and flat, as if it had always been a honeycomb-like floor.
Originally aiming guns at her, over twenty extremist followers had been reduced to carrion under the laser beams' onslaught.
Li Yubin showed an incredulous expression; when did Gao Mu Country develop such terrifying weapons?
"Skill Name: Fire Suppression Module"
"Skill Description: Consumes four high-energy beams to deliver widespread firepower strikes against all enemy targets in a designated area. Can choose between pin-type piercing bullets or sensor-triggered explosive bullets. Maximum strike radius: one hundred meters."
"Note: Special bullets split from fire suppression are enhanced by high-energy beam status."
Like a cowboy, Wu Chang twirled the Dawn Hammer in his hand a couple of times before holstering it at his waist.
For this first shot fired by the Dawn Hammer, he was very satisfied.
The skill "High-Energy Beam·Modified" allows the Dawn Hammer to absorb free-floating energy in the air and incorporate it into the high-energy beam.
Around Tan Mountain, the area is filled with the power of faith; the high-energy beam that absorbs the power of faith has significantly increased power. If the power of faith is concentrated enough, it might even condense a trace of divinity.
