Chapter 596 The Captured King
On Mad Wind Island, the castle had collapsed, replaced by the imposing figure of a Heavy Armor Warrior mecha. With a giant spear in one hand and the other spread open, it held the small, frail body of Han Han in its massive steel palm. Outside the ruins, nearly a thousand cerebrum-type Pioneer warriors exerted their combined force, forming an immense brainwave attack that poured into Han Han's mind.
Li Tianran silently pulled the dining knife from his chest, blood spurting out. He was in pain, but the psychological pain was even more intense than the physical.
An attack from a Heavy Armor Warrior mecha and a thousand cerebrum-type Pioneers could instantly kill thousands of Beast Kings, but at this moment, this offensive only temporarily controlled Han Han, stopping her rampage.
The Heavy Armor Warrior's mechanical fingers tightened, emitting a grinding sound of metal and bone. The intense pain in her body caused Han Han's brain to blank out for 0.1 seconds, and the cerebrum-type Pioneer warriors seized the opportunity, their massive brainwave attack invading her brain and shattering her cerebral blood vessels.
Han Han felt a severe sense of dizziness, and everything before her eyes rapidly darkened.
She was furious.
But she couldn't resist.
Her awakening differed from the other five Ancient Civilization Sages. Her power hadn't returned to its former peak in a short time, and she wasn't standing on her kingdom's land. Most importantly, the suppression from Li Tianran's shelter and Li Tianran's own "Gluttonous Devour" ability had suppressed her already limited power to the extreme.
At this time, compared to the other five Sages, her strength was less than one-twentieth.
Under the suppression of the Heavy Armor Warrior and a thousand cerebrum-type Pioneers, she couldn't escape from here. On the first day of the ancient civilization's resurgence, she might be the first king to be captured by humans!
Li Tianran watched Han Han's pained screams, his heart aching as well. But he didn't hesitate. Han Han's body was an evolver; she was hard to kill. Her life's weakness was in her cervical vertebrae. The brainwave attack and the Heavy Armor Warrior's strength would cause her extreme pain and dizziness, but they wouldn't kill her.
Li Tianran wasn't the kind of parent who was soft-hearted without limits. He knew that if he didn't control Han Han now, the sister who had lived with him for seven years might become a thing of the past. The remaining Li Han would only be an unfamiliar soul wearing a familiar body.
To prevent this from happening, he would rather harden his heart.
Boom!
The second round of the cerebrum-type Pioneers' offensive arrived, and the blood vessels in Han Han's brain were completely shattered. She fell into a coma.
The process of that powerful mind erasing her seven years of memories also came to an abrupt halt.
She became quiet again, as if she were asleep, softly collapsing in the Heavy Armor Warrior's palm.
Li Tianran stood in the ruins, watching this scene. He knew he had to find a way to solve this quickly, or Han Han would never wake up again.
He had to cut off the blood vessels in Han Han's brain that were about to be repaired every few minutes, preventing her from waking up, preventing that powerful mind from waking up again and erasing her seven years of memories.
And during this time, Han Han would endure pain again and again.
The Heavy Armor Warrior bent down and placed Han Han in front of Li Tianran.
"..." Li Tianran reached out and stroked her unconscious head, softly saying, "I don't care who you are, or how strong you are, but as long as you want to turn her into someone else..."
"I won't allow it!"
...
As Han Han fainted, the giant pyramid in the desert fell completely silent, without any more brilliant light or terrifying energy fluctuations.
"That pyramid has stopped reviving..." someone in the Alliance said, their voice trembling.
This was a good thing. Although it wasn't clear why this happened, the sudden collapse and disappearance of the world-destroying energy sphere was like a reprieve for the entire human race.
"Although the pyramid has fallen silent again, there are still five ultra-ancient structures in existence... and their intention is clear: to completely destroy our civilization!"
A high-ranking official of the Alliance stood tall, his voice deep as he said, "We can't continue to sit idly by. Let's use our strength to counterattack them!"
Faced with ancient beings whose power far exceeded that of human civilization, the Alliance launched an attack on them according to the previously formulated plan.
"Please enter the password!"
As the mechanical electronic voice sounded, the heads of state began to take out intercontinental missile launch controllers, entering the password and pressing the launch button hard.
Click, click, click!
Heavy missiles were launched from their silos. With the blinding light and the global alarm sounding, at that moment, more than twenty intercontinental missiles rose into the air and slowly entered the atmosphere, speeding towards the five ultra-ancient civilization structures at several times the speed of sound.
After the launch of the intercontinental weapons, a large number of warplanes tore through the sky, heading towards the five ultra-ancient structures.
Although the giant dragon in the Sky Castle had torn apart two warplanes before, no one believed it could face the overwhelming swarm of aircraft on its own. Moreover, it was unknown whether it would survive after the intercontinental weapons bombardment.
"They can certainly create weapons that surpass the power of intercontinental missiles, but they may not be able to withstand the impact of intercontinental weapons!" A weapons expert said, "As long as they are still within the scope of carbon-based lifeforms, they can never withstand a nuclear missile attack unscathed!"
This didn't defy logic, just like some excellent fighters whose powerful punches they themselves might not be able to withstand.
This was the same principle.
Attack and defense were two completely different concepts.
Like the human world today, there were several countries with nuclear weapons, but none could defend against them.
As the intercontinental missiles entered the atmosphere, their speed suddenly increased.
The five ancient civilization structures vibrated slightly. The five powerful kings stood atop the ancient structures, seemingly without any emotional changes, simply calmly looking up at the sky.
"They didn't dodge, they didn't move!"
The personnel in charge of monitoring shouted out in surprise.
According to this trend, the speed of the intercontinental weapons would soon reach its peak and land on their heads!
"Distance to target: 300 kilometers!"
"Distance to target: 200 kilometers!"
"Distance to target: 100 kilometers!"
As the weapons monitoring personnel announced the time with joy, everyone's mood became excited.
At this distance, there was almost no possibility of avoiding it!
The peak speed of intercontinental weapons could reach Mach 27. At this speed, in just a dozen seconds, the intercontinental weapons would explode on the five ancient civilization structures, and then everything would be destroyed!
