The Elephant King's body froze, his pupils suddenly constricting.
He noticed that the source of the sound was coming from the sea's horizon.
Squinting, he saw a colossal ship appear on the calm, unrippled surface of the sea.
These ships were incredibly tall, with dozens of cannons on their surfaces slowly turning, aiming directly at Mount Taibai.
"What the hell!"
The Elephant King's heart sank. With so many ships here, he couldn't get close to the shore.
He had no doubt that if he got too close, those cannons would be far from mere decorations.
And the various demon kings who were still defending against the shelling, upon seeing the scene on the horizon,
Their eyelids twitched, and their hearts, already in turmoil, plummeted to the depths.
It was clear from this that they all guessed what consequences the Elephant King would face if he dared to move.
Without exaggeration, the appearance of this single colossal ship had shattered the last sliver of hope for survival in their hearts.
"Roar."
The Elephant King surveyed the giant ship, then looked back at the demon kings desperately fending off missile attacks.
His expression was uncertain. Finally, he let out a fierce roar and charged forward.
He had made his choice, deciding to fight to the death.
The Elephant King's body was massive, but he was surprisingly swift.
In a blink, he reached the seashore. Without a moment's hesitation, he lowered his long trunk and took a huge gulp of water.
Just then.
*Bang!*
A deafening explosion erupted.
The colossal ship fired a massive black projectile that struck the Elephant King.
"Roar!"
The Elephant King cried out in pain, staggering back several steps.
Blood gushed from his body.
"Roar!"
However, at the same time, the Elephant King raised his trunk and unleashed a towering jet of water, directly hitting the nearest attack helicopter.
*Bang!*
The helicopter was instantly ripped open by the water jet, losing control and spiraling erratically before crashing into the sea, sending a colossal wave into the air.
"Fuck!"
"Stop him! Keep him away from the coastline."
"Don't let him make any more moves!"
Before the faces of the demon kings could show any joy, Gao Xiong's enraged voice boomed out.
*Bang bang bang...*
As the words fell, all the cannons on the colossal ship turned towards the Elephant King.
Then, they unleashed a barrage of enormous cannonballs.
The Elephant King was prepared. Enduring the pain, he twisted his body, narrowly dodging several cannonballs.
But the sheer density of the projectiles was overwhelming. In the end, the Elephant King could not avoid being hit by a cannonball.
And at that very moment, as the Elephant King stumbled, the remaining cannonballs rained down upon him.
*Bang bang bang!*
An intense power erupted.
Even with the Elephant King's thick hide, he couldn't withstand such a concentrated bombardment.
In an instant.
The Elephant King's mournful cries echoed through the heavens. Then, his body swayed, and he finally collapsed onto the ground.
Amidst the raging flames, he twisted his body, trying to get up, but...
He never managed to stand, only lying on the ground, his wails never ceasing.
It was clear he had reached his limit.
"Elephant King!"
Seeing this from afar, the other demon kings roared in fury.
While still defending against the shelling, they rushed towards the Elephant King's position.
But just as they were about to reach him.
*Bang!*
A cannonball descended, landing squarely on the ground between the Elephant King and them.
The explosion tore a deep crater in the earth.
This cannonball was fired by the colossal ship.
It fired only once and then ceased its actions.
This shot didn't seem intended to harm them; it was more like a warning.
"Ah!"
"You bastards!"
The demon kings roared at the sky.
However.
Facing these roars, the leaders of various nations, seated in the helicopters, burst into laughter.
How to describe it.
These demon kings were now like beasts trapped in a cage.
Though unwilling, they were utterly powerless to change their fate.
They knew what the final outcome would be, yet they still desperately tried to alter it.
But the result... would remain unchanged.
It was as if they were eagerly watching them step by step into despair!
"Mr. Gao, coming here to witness this scene firsthand was definitely the right decision."
"Hahaha!"
Gao Xiong chuckled and asked, "Shall we add a little more spice to this?"
"What spice?"
"Let's bet on which of these demon kings can hold out the longest, or perhaps bet on how long it will take to annihilate them with our current firepower?"
"Hmm?"
"You still want to come closer?"
Just then, Gao Xiong noticed the demon kings at the foot of Mount Taibai still unwilling to give up and trying to advance.
He frowned slightly, and his voice boomed through the loudspeaker.
"This is your final warning."
"If you take another step forward, this cannonball will land on that poor elephant."
As he spoke.
The cannons of the colossal ship slowly rotated, all aiming at the dying white elephant.
*Swish!*
The demon kings who were about to advance froze.
Their faces contorted with ferocity, but upon seeing the cold muzzles of the cannons in the distance.
They all subtly retracted their forward movements.
They dared not advance further.
They feared that their actions would lead to the Elephant King's demise.
And they also feared that without the Elephant King, they would be no match for the helicopters in the sky.
But...
How could they understand that Gao Xiong and the others were merely playing?
If they truly intended to, they could have fired hundreds of missiles.
Let alone them, even Mount Taibai would have been leveled!
At this moment!
As time passed, the missile bombardment had continued for quite some time.
During this period, the demon kings, being beasts and not machines,
Occasionally, they couldn't withstand the onslaught, resulting in a series of wounds being inflicted upon them.
Their auras were now very weak.
If this continued, the final outcome was clear.
They truly could not hold on much longer.
"It's time to show them a little more of our might."
"Agreed, there's no point in dragging this out any further."
"Let's finish them off!"
On one of the attack helicopters, the leaders of various nations conversed, then all turned their attention to the demon kings below.
"Let's give them the final strike!"
Gao Xiong tapped his fingers lightly, a cruel smile appearing on his lips.
*Vroom vroom vroom!*
As his words fell, several helicopters ceased their humming.
Then, an earth-shattering roar erupted.
At this moment.
Even though they were just cold machines, everyone still felt an intense, heart-pounding aura of death.
It was as if the Grim Reaper was slowly walking towards them.
*Boom!*
At this moment, a cannonball was fired.
...
