Chapter 679 - 325: The Final Battle! (Part 2)
Now, it has to be used to negotiate with Wolf Ao to retreat his forces...
Only a small portion can be retained for experimental research and after reaching the Holy City, sell it to the Life Farm.
However, doing so isn’t completely secure. After obtaining the flesh of the late-stage Rock Horse Giant Beast, Wolf Ao might use it to heal wounds, or strengthen the early-stage Desolate Wolf Beast, and then return with renewed strength.
But by then, Lin Feng would have already left Oasis Town, taking his convoy to the Holy City, and Oasis Town would likely be taken over by the Holy City Diocese, its fate no longer concerning Lin Feng.
However, Han Tao’s escape, or more precisely betrayal, unexpectedly aided Lin Feng greatly.
After all, tracking down the fleeing Rock Horse Warrior is enough to keep Wolf Ao away from Oasis Avenue.
Han Tao not only would draw away the high-end forces of the Desert Wolf Race but also buy precious time for Oasis Town’s escape.
This is far safer and more assured than using Li Hao’s flesh for transactions.
Considering this, Lin Feng felt indifferent to Han Tao’s desertion on the battlefield, even watching his silhouette disappear into the mountains on the right.
The next moment, Lin Feng immediately consumed ten Life Value points to assemble and synthesize the Armor-Piercing Cannon and High-Explosive Rapid-Fire Cannon into a Level 27 Thermite Annihilation Cannon.
Then, he aimed at the gathering of wolves behind Salvation Army’s convoy and fired a shell.
By now, the Salvation Army convoy had completely withdrawn, and at the corner except for the evolved Desolate Wolves, only Bai Ye was left entangled with Wolf Ao.
Such terrain and conditions are perfect for the use of the Annihilation Cannon, without worrying about affecting convoy members.
After all, the slopes and rocks at the corner can block most of the shockwave damage.
Lin Feng also wanted to use this to intimidate the nearby wolf pack and warn Wolf Ao that he still had weapons capable of severely damaging it again.
More importantly, the Salvation Army had successfully broken through half of the distance already, with less than five hundred meters to escape from the mountains and reach the flat Oasis Avenue.
This is Wolf Ao’s last chance to intercept the Salvation Army.
Therefore, synthesizing the Thermite Annihilation Cannon in advance was preparing for a decisive battle with Wolf Ao.
As Lin Feng pulled the trigger, the Thermite Annihilation Cannon fired accurately through the gap at the corner, hitting a group of evolved Desolate Wolves behind.
The explosive fireball rose with a violent blast, forming a mushroom cloud a hundred meters high.
Within less than a tenth of a second, the shockwave erupted in steaming heat, sweeping across a hundred meters circumference.
The evolved Desolate Wolves at the explosion’s core, even a late Tier One leader-level Giant Wolf, couldn’t withstand thousands of degrees of heat, causing its limbs to shatter, with flesh and bones directly dehydrated and carbonized...
Rendering it useless for any purpose.
The terrifying power of the Thermite Annihilation Cannon, used against life forms below Tier Two, is like using a cannon to kill mosquitoes.
Not only does it fail to offset its use but also yields no gain under the explosion’s high-temperature burn.
However, for intimidating enemies, it is even more effective than the Oasis Battleship’s battleship heavy cannon.
Because after the explosion, even the surface transforms into a charred wasteland, and no life form below Tier Three can survive at the explosion center.
Naturally, the explosion behind the corner also affected Wolf Ao, who was trying to break free from Bai Ye’s interference and intended to charge the Salvation Army convoy.
Though not directly hit by the Annihilation Cannon, the incoming wave of heat and shock reminded Wolf Ao of unpleasant memories.
Several hundred degrees of scorched heat wounded its head, turning it red; the damage was minor, but the warning was significant.
Wolf Ao immediately stepped back, retreating towards the slopes on both sides.
At this moment, the previously exhausted Bai Ye also seized this opportunity to catch his breath.
However, after crossing the corner, Wolf Ao didn’t immediately attack but instead headed along the slope to the other side.
With only one mountain separating it from the Salvation Army’s main advance route.
This way, it doesn’t have to worry about being hit by the Salvation Army’s firearms superpower Evolvers.
Also, it can look for an opportunity to strike their front.
As long as it closes the distance, unless the opponent decides to risk mutual destruction, they won’t likely pull the trigger within a hundred meters, as it would be mutually harmful.
Moreover, even if fired at close range, Wolf Ao is confident it would suffer less damage compared to the opponent, and could recover more quickly thanks to its massive body’s base than human Tier Two Evolvers.
Seeing Wolf Ao’s silhouette disappear behind, breaking free from Bai Ye’s restraint and entering the slopes on both sides, Lin Feng instantly focused entirely, sensing the opponent’s emitted aura.
The muzzle of the Thermite Annihilation Cannon in his hand was aimed at the sky above.
If Wolf Ao attacks, with its massive body exceeding twenty meters, it will undoubtedly leap down, locking Lin Feng as the target.
So the best response is to shoot directly at the sky, making the shell hit Wolf Ao in mid-air.
Even if it hits, the Salvation Army’s main convoy, including Lin Feng himself, would suffer the heat wave’s impact from the Annihilation Cannon...
But enduring the aftermath of the explosion is better than having Wolf Ao close in and being buried in a wolf’s belly.
As for Bai Ye behind, seeing Wolf Ao has broken free from his control and restraint, preparing to assault the Salvation Army’s main convoy, he hurriedly grabbed his arranged space nodes to pursue.
However, Bai Ye’s remaining Power of Space in his body had less than thirty percent left, only enough to restrain Wolf Ao for two to three more minutes.
While the Salvation Army needs at least five minutes to cover the last five hundred meters.
