Chapter 8: Warehouses and Treasuries (Part 2)

Li Ran said, “No need. You just need to show us the direction; we’ll fly there.”
Bu Ruobugong thought to himself that flying here was different from flying in space—flying on the surface of a planet wouldn’t be very fast. He had no idea about the terrifying abilities of these curse practitioners, but he didn’t dare object either. He nodded and said, “Okay, but… my flying speed isn’t fast enough…”
Guo Shier said, “You don’t need to fly. We’ll carry you along…”
…
Bu Ruobugong was completely convinced. At first, when he saw the purple chains wrapping around him, he was terrified, thinking they wanted to kill him. Before he could beg for mercy, Li Ran had already flown him high into the sky. The other experts followed, each with purple chains extending from them, connecting to one another. Only then did he realize it was a preparation for flying. Soon after, Li Ran shouted, “Which direction?”
Pointing in the direction of Lu City, Bu Ruobugong finally calmed down. But suddenly, everything blurred around him—the speed was incredible. The scenery rushed past wildly, and he almost screamed, but seeing the little girl Serichlin still laughing, he held back his cry. He gritted his teeth hard, trying to identify the direction.
After about twenty minutes, Bu Ruobugong actually spotted a familiar small city—they had already covered one-third of the distance. He exclaimed in shock, “So fast? Go in that direction!”
Li Ran slightly adjusted the direction, and they rushed past the small city in an instant. No one would be interested in such a small city; even if they robbed it, they wouldn’t get much.
In less than an hour, Bu Ruobugong saw the silhouette of Lu City. He shouted, “Lu City is ahead!” By now, he was truly astonished—the speed was too fast. These people were nothing like ordinary humans. Along the way, he could barely see the surroundings. Despite his strong abilities, the rapid flight left him dizzy.
Li Ran and the others suddenly slowed down. Bu Ruobugong smiled bitterly, unsure whether meeting these people was a blessing or a curse. At this point, he had no choice but to take a risk. He asked, “Do we just go in like this?”
Guo Shier laughed, “Do we still need to disguise ourselves? Haha, we can just storm in. Who would dare stop us?”
Staring at Lu City, Bu Ruobugong suddenly said, “Lu City is in chaos!”

It wasn’t just chaotic—thousands of defeated soldiers clad in starlight armor were attacking the city, and the battle was fierce. Clearly, the defenders of Deer City were at a disadvantage. If those defeated soldiers hadn’t been disorganized, Deer City would likely have already fallen.
Deer City had formidable defenses, including various automatic weapons and a large number of warriors also wearing starlight armor resisting the attack.
Guo Shier smiled and said, “It’s chaotic enough. Let’s go help!”
As soon as he said this, everyone understood. Only if those defeated soldiers entered the city could it cause such chaos, and then no one would bother them. Qi Wu Zhen grinned and said, “I’ll do it!”
Guo Shier quickly reminded her, “Sister Zhen, don’t burn down the whole city!”
Qi Wu Zhen was taken aback but couldn’t help laughing—she had indeed thought of doing that.
She had come here intending to give it a try, to trigger the underground magma to flood the city and see just how much her strength had improved since her advancement. She never knew her limits and lacked opponents to fight against, so she felt somewhat frustrated. She laughed and said, “Alright, alright, I won’t burn the city… How about I burn it after you’ve finished looting?”
Guo Shier replied, “It’s not you who’ll loot—it’s us!”
Qi Wu Zhen giggled, “Alright, alright, giggling, it’s us who’ll loot! All of us together…”
The seven of them, along with Bu Ruobugong, charged straight into the ranks of the defeated soldiers, like lions plunging into a flock of sheep. Many of those defeated soldiers had seen these seven before and knew they were powerful enough to destroy starships and space fortresses, so chaos ensued. Soon, they were surprised to find that these people ignored them entirely and instead attacked the defenders of Deer City. The morale of the defeated soldiers soared, and they joined in the attack as well.
In just a few moments, Qi Wu Zhen killed dozens of warriors in starlight armor, breaking through into the city with unstoppable force. The defeated soldiers followed in, and the entire city fell into chaos. The seven of them attacked simultaneously—not the defending soldiers, but the automatic weapons—creating a huge gap in no time.

The defeated soldiers let out a cheer and charged in, all going mad. Entering Deer City meant obtaining vast wealth, and at this point, no one could escape punishment, so they decided to cause havoc. If they could seize enough wealth, they might have a chance of survival once they escaped. After all, there were many defeated soldiers—who would know who did it? Everyone hoped for luck, and together they formed a powerful force.

The only flaw was that they had no unified commander; they were like scattered sand. If faced with organized resistance, they would hardly be able to do anything. But when they saw Li Ran and the other six taking action, it was as if they had a leader, and invisibly, this force was guided by Li Ran and his group.

Thousands of defeated soldiers clad in starlight armor, once they rushed into Deer City, who knew what would happen? After entering the city, they immediately scattered and began killing and looting frantically to vent their extreme fear.

Some soldiers who came out of the escape pods also carried weapons and followed those in starlight armor into the city. Since many of them were familiar comrades, they formed small teams.

That self-destructing space fortress eventually issued an explosion warning, allowing some soldiers near the escape pods to escape. Although not many, there were tens of thousands of them, all equipped with personal defense weapons. After landing on Liewen Star, they quickly found their companions and comrades, forming their own force.

The wild fury of the defeated soldiers terrified all the soldiers in Deer City, but the defending soldiers quickly reacted.

All kinds of madness, killing, looting, and resistance.

Under Bu Ruobugong’s leadership, the seven rushed to Liewen Star’s largest government building, where the planet’s biggest treasury was located—the most heavily defended place, and now the fiercest battles were taking place there. The defeated soldiers seemed to know this place held great rewards, so more and more of them kept arriving. By the time Li Ran’s team arrived, the area was already in chaos.

Guo Shier jumped into the air and shouted, “This is ours! Whoever dares come here… will die!”

A few guards in starlight armor attacked Guo Shier frantically, but he slapped them hundreds of meters away, embedding them in a building. He suddenly drew his moonblade and roared, “Whoever dares attack… dies!”

In an instant, countless moon blades transformed into streams of light, swirling wildly in the air. Following Guo Shier’s finger movements, wherever he pointed, the streams of moon blade light would strike that person. The moon blades, enhanced multiple times by the old man, possessed terrifying power. Whether wearing Star Armor or not, anyone hit by these streams of light would instantly turn into fragments. The defense of Star Armor was as thin as paper and utterly ineffective.

After killing seven or eight people in a row, both the retreating soldiers and the guards collapsed in panic. This man was too terrifying to resist. The retreating soldiers knew how fierce these enemies were, so most of those killed were guards; only one retreating soldier was killed—that fool fought not far in front of Guo Shier and was swiftly eliminated by him.

Qi Wu Zhen, Li Ran, Ku Mu, and Wang Dayang also launched attacks, but their force was weak, targeting only the guards who attacked them. No retreating soldiers dared to attack them. In just three or four minutes, the retreating soldiers scattered, and the guards retreated into the government building to resist. Though they didn’t dare come out to attack, they could enter the building by retracting their Star Armor and clinging tightly to their clothing.

The area in front of the government building was cleared, and finally, it became quiet. Guo Shier asked, “Where is the warehouse?”

Li Ran said, “Strange, why aren’t any members of the Secret Clan here?”

Bu Ruobugong replied, “There won’t be any Secret Clan members coming to the government building. The treasury is behind… I have a general idea of its location, but the exact spot… needs confirmation from the local officials.”

Wang Dayang said, “We can just capture someone and ask. I’ll go!” His figure vanished suddenly, and just a few dozen seconds later, he brought someone back before everyone—his efficiency was truly unmatched.

Bu Ruobugong said, “I’ll ask!”

Soon, Bu Ruobugong found the exact location. Since the location of the treasury was known to the internal staff and didn’t need to be kept secret, it was easy to obtain accurate information. He casually threw the person away, slamming them hard against a wall in the distance. The person died instantly—how could an ordinary person withstand such immense force?

Bu Ruobugong was also a ruthless character. To avoid being remembered, he didn’t hesitate to kill to silence witnesses.

The group had no interest in the government building and followed Bu Ruobugong to the back of it. As for the guards hiding inside the building, no one dared to stop them or attack them. Past experiences had taught them that it was better not to fight—once they did, they would be destroyed, as no one could withstand those people’s terrifying attacks.

Burobugong said, “This is the government’s great treasury!”
