Nu!
Seeing that Xiong Ba was about to escape, Wang Feng decisively fired back.
The Divine Martial Guards got the order, tossing aside their weapons and taking out the god arm crossbow, arming it and firing. The entire process flowed like water and used less than half a minute.
In such a situation without disturbance and in such a narrow passageway, the bolts unavoidably had a freakishly high killing power. The guards in charge of being the frontline fell down row by row.
Following which, Xiong Ba's Personal Guards too could not escape their fate.
The god arm crossbow shot at too fast a rate. Moreover, the Divine Martial Guards were well trained, and they were already used to firing it. The bolts did not stop coming.
The less than hundred meter passage became the nightmare of the enemy. When Xiong Ba managed to rushed to the end, he was left with only around ten Personal Guards who were all injured.
Luckily, he made it.
Who knows which guard pressed it, but the wooden wall suddenly opened and revealed a narrow, square lift-like space.
”Quickly!”
The Personal Guards protected Xiong Ba and entered the 'lift.' In truth, this was a modified tool to raise and lower them.
After they entered, the wooden wall slowly closed once more.
”Not good!”
When Wang Feng saw this scene, his heart shook. He did not even think, using all his strength to throw the spear in his hand.
Pew! The spear was like an arrow as it broke through the air and stuck into the lift before it closed.
The lift stopped.
This shocking strike caused even the Divine Martial Guards to feel stunned.
”Quick, stop them!”
Wang Feng did not stop as he pulled out his Tang Blade; he was the first person to chase over.
The short hundred meters was covered quickly.
Wang Feng was going all out.
The Divine Martial Guards followed closely behind him.
...
Within the lift, the faces of everyone were ashen white. The spear that Wang Feng tossed out had pierced into the head of one of the Personal Guards; brain fluids flowed out and fresh blood spurted.
Such a close encounter caused even the Personal Guards who had been through hundreds of battles to be shocked.
Most crucially, because of that spear, the lift could not close and naturally could not work.
The lift was one that Xiong Ba had purposely found top grade smiths to modify, and it was linked to the exit at the bottom layer of the ships. There were also little boats and emergency supplies ready at the exit.
The goal of the creation of this lift was to act as an escape route at the crucial moment.
His planning ability was far from ordinary.
Who knew that at the last moment, his plan would be destroyed by Wang Feng's sky shocking strike.
Wang Feng's spear was made from elite iron, so it could not be easily cut apart. If they forcefully moved the lift, the spear that was stuck onto the door would lock it in place.
With that, Xiong Ba and the others had no way out.
Xiong Ba's expression was complicated; in the end, he sighed, ”Since we cannot retreat, then let's fight to the death!”
”Fight! Fight! Fight!”
In the small space, the more than 10 Personal Guards were ready.
These were people with their backs against the wall; they were prepared to go all out.
”If I cannot escape, neither will you!”
Xiong Ba's eyes turned cold as he grasped the machete in his hand.
...
”Destroy the door!”
Wang Feng had already rushed to the end along with the Divine Martial Guards.
”Yes sir!”
The Divine Martial Guards found some hard iron items to try and force their way in.
They did not expect that just at that moment, the wooden wall would open from both sides. The Personal Guards under the leadership of Xiong Ba charged out and caught them off guard.
Instantly, the Divine Martial Guards suffered heavy casualties.
Xiong Ba grasped his machete and went right for Wang Feng, chopping down. This heavy strike gathered all his killing intent and willingness to die.
He struck out without leaving any way to defend himself.
As expected from an ambitious and smart person; at the crucial moment, he still went out with style.
Wang Feng did not dare take to take him lightly, raising his blade to block it.
Dang! The thin blade was smashed aside by the machete. The momentum did not fade as it flashed a white glow, charging straight for Wang Feng's shoulder.
If the machete hit, it would split Wang Feng into two.
”General!”
The surrounding Divine Martial Guards panicked; they wanted to assist him, but it was already too late.
Wang Feng did not panic; he gritted his teeth and tried his best to side step it.
Puchi!
Regretfully, his reaction was too slow, and the machete cut down along his shoulder, splitting his left hand into two parts, his forearm falling to the ground.
Where the arm broke, fresh blood flowed out like a fountain.
No matter how resilient and steely he was, his face instantly turned white and cold sweat broke out from his forehead.
”General!”
