Lord of Illusions City

Chapter 541 Taking the Branch Nest!

Chapter 165 Escape

Just as the Planet Destroyer Cannon was about to finish charging, Li Chenzhou waved his hand, pausing it. What he had told the Doronians before, that once the Planet Destroyer Cannon was charged, it couldn't be reversed, was indeed not a lie.

Charging the Planet Destroyer Cannon also required Kill Points or mutated crystal cores, which would rapidly accumulate a large amount of energy, the source of its power.

This energy was very unstable, so even Li Chenzhou didn't dare to put the charged Planet Destroyer Cannon into the Kill Space. If it exploded in there…

This was why Li Chenzhou needed to charge the Planet Destroyer Cannon every time he used it. Otherwise, he could have charged some in advance and taken them out to fire when needed. This would not only save time but also prevent the enemy from reacting!

However, although he didn't dare to put the Planet Destroyer Cannon into the Kill Space, pausing it for a moment outside was possible, as long as it wasn't too long!

The reason for pausing the Planet Destroyer Cannon was that Li Chenzhou wasn't sure what the Devourers were trying to do! The surrounding Devourers had retreated too cleanly, without even leaving someone to monitor him from afar or above, which was clearly abnormal.

Li Chenzhou quickly looked at the screen. The positions of the warriors hadn't changed. Since the assault on the war chariots, the Devourers hadn't used light teleportation to transport the warriors and continue capturing them.

Not only did the warriors' positions remain unchanged, but there were no anomalies in the communicators either. It seemed the Devourers weren't shifting their target to the warriors.

Then what were they trying to do?

Just as Li Chenzhou was frowning in thought, a familiar buzzing sound suddenly rang out: Cage Fighters!!!

Li Chenzhou was stunned. Launching the Cage Fighters at this time? Could it be that they saw light teleportation couldn't teleport him away, so they wanted to try with the Cage Fighters?

No! Those sons of bitches are going to run!!!

In the next moment, Li Chenzhou suddenly realized.

On his side, the Devourers had left behind thousands of corpses, but it hadn't worked at all, so they had to give up. And on the warriors' side, there were no new developments!

This could only mean that the Devourers didn't seem to have any new tricks, so they were forced to abandon this stronghold! Just like when the Blue Demons abandoned Base Three!

Li Chenzhou immediately shouted:

"Little Lu, ram it out! Quick!"

At this time, the Slaughter War Chariot was at the edge of the sub-nest. The passage it had entered through, opened by the Planet Destroyer Cannon, had already closed. Upon receiving Li Chenzhou's order, the Slaughter War Chariot immediately reversed violently, smashing through the sub-nest and rushing outside.

Sure enough, as soon as the war chariot reached the outside, Li Chenzhou saw four Cage Fighters flying out of the top of the sub-nest, preparing to escape into the distance.

"Fire!"

Without hesitation, Li Chenzhou immediately adjusted the angle of the charged Planet Destroyer Cannon. The thick beam of light instantly appeared, shooting straight into the sky…

Because they had just flown out of the exit, the four fighters were very close together. The Planet Destroyer Cannon's beam of light completely enveloped two of them. These two fighters didn't even have a chance to explode, instantly dissolving.

Another one had half of its fuselage hit by the beam. With only half of its fuselage left, it naturally couldn't continue flying and tumbled towards the ground!

The remaining one was undamaged, but it was frightened enough. It quickly rolled over and plunged towards the ground, then flew wildly along the ground.

Li Chenzhou had also brought out the war chariot's beam cannon, preparing to use it to shoot down the last fighter, but after being attacked, the fighter didn't pull up into the air but dove downward instead.

In this way, he and the fighter were separated by the huge sub-nest, and he couldn't see the fighter at all.

"Quite clever!"

Li Chenzhou was also a little surprised.

Actually, he could directly take out another Planet Destroyer Cannon and open a passage in the sub-nest again. Even if the shooting trajectory didn't hit the escaping fighter, it could directly pass through and track it.

However, Li Chenzhou didn't waste another Planet Destroyer Cannon. It was just one fighter; it seemed it could only hold two people. Letting it escape was no big deal; it wasn't worth using a Planet Destroyer Cannon!

After this fighter escaped, it should go to other Devourer strongholds to report, but Li Chenzhou didn't care. He was going to start a war with the Devourers anyway. At most, it would let them know he had a Planet Destroyer Cannon, which wasn't a big deal.

After waiting outside for a while, no more Cage Fighters flew out, which surprised Li Chenzhou a little.

Because Cage Fighters were basically everywhere, as long as you were on the ground, you could hear their buzzing sound every once in a while, so Li Chenzhou knew there were definitely a lot of Cage Fighters. This stronghold definitely had more than four!

But after waiting for a few minutes, there were none. Either the remaining Devourers didn't plan to escape, or they were afraid to run after seeing him shoot down three fighters.

Little did Li Chenzhou know, the Devourer Predators were out capturing people, so they weren't at the base!

After thinking about it, Li Chenzhou decided not to wait any longer, so he drove back into the sub-nest. At this time, the warriors had basically broken through all the walls that had trapped them. Without the Devourer leader's control, the sub-nest no longer changed, leaving only the Devourers who knew they were doomed but still charged forward!

Seeing the Devourers, the warriors' eyes turned red. For the people of the Doron world, the Devourers were their greatest enemy. Their grievances had lasted for ten thousand years, and almost everyone had relatives who had been captured or killed by the Devourers.

Therefore, all the warriors spared no ammunition, frantically sweeping at every Devourer they could see.

Because of the existence of the defensive warriors, plus the Devourers' only ranged weapon was the stun gun, they had to get close to kill the warriors. How could the fully armed warriors give them this chance?

Moreover, due to the Devourer leader's order, the high-level Devourers had secretly slipped away. After all, even their leader had left, so they wouldn't stay here and wait for death. Only the low-level Devourers, under the orders of the high-level Devourers, were entangled with the human warriors in the sub-nest.

The high-level Devourers wanted to entangle the warriors to prevent them from chasing after them. Also, it would be too conspicuous to escape on the ground in large numbers, so they didn't hesitate to abandon the low-level Devourers.

The battle in the sub-nest lasted for more than an hour. Except for the few high-level Devourers who escaped, all the other Devourers were killed by the warriors, leaving not even one alive.

In addition, by capturing this stronghold, the warriors, besides rescuing their comrades who had been light-teleported away, actually found a huge prison underground. The prison was full of captured humans…
