Chapter 1591: Chapter 53 Queen’s Decree

Dantai’s people couldn’t afford to worry about Tang Zheng, as they had sharply detected the changes in the chief’s state and hurriedly launched their most powerful attack.

Tang Zheng’s sixth Ability was extremely potent; upon activation, he acted as a minister executing the Queen’s authority, with every spoken word becoming an edict to be unconditionally executed. However, this also came with significant constraints.

If he merely ordered something trivial, like silence or imprisonment, it would only consume some Life Energy, but if the target of the order was formidable, such as an S-4 Level Chief, surpassing his own strength, then even an ordinary decree like imprisonment would subject his body to tremendous damage.

If a lethal decree were issued, such as instant death or compulsory servitude, with organ loss, even if the target was as weak as a Level 1 British Soldier, Tang Zheng’s body would suffer backlash.

Such a rule-based Ability should not be used lightly; in any plane of existence, there exists a balance of power, and Tang Zheng could only use the Queen’s Decree within certain limits to serve himself.

If one considered only the Furious Queen’s first five powers, it would be just a rare 3S Seed Ability, certainly nowhere near as potent as Bingxu’s Bloody Saint, Vasily’s Old Soldier Never Die. However, with the activation of the sixth Ability, at that moment in the Trojan World, it ranked within the top five rare Abilities.

The Queen’s Decree was fraught with uncertainties, and Tang Zheng still needed to explore its powers cautiously; otherwise, he might very well pay with his life.

"I wonder what kind of backlash I would face if I commanded the chief to die of cardiac paralysis," Tang Zheng thought for a moment but then discarded this unrealistic idea, as even though it might succeed, his own death was inevitable. Merely ordering the opponent’s defense to be halved and adding imprisonment had already caused him to lose his voice, with some of his organs starting to necrotize to varying degrees.

If he didn’t promptly return to the Trojan Room for treatment, even if he killed the chief, Tang Zheng wouldn’t live much longer.

"Queen’s..." Tang Zheng wanted to use his power again, but he had lost the ability to speak, so he could only tightly grip Lake Light, enduring the pain and engaging in close-quarters fighting.

The chief was like having fallen into a muddy swamp, his movements slowed down a lot, his roars of anger and reluctance were futile, as he solidly sustained a concentrated barrage from everyone.

Fighting a live target, for people like Mu Nianqi, there was no chance of missing; otherwise, they might as well just give up and die.

Queen Mu was planning to use Scattered Cutting Edge to bind the chief, but seeing the situation, she immediately switched to the Witch’s Blade’s ultimate ability.

Under the Firestorm Firmament, a massive meteor shower was formed, locking onto the chief and bombarding him, the flames engulfed his entire body, inextinguishable; followed by Nabistin’s Angry Wave’s sevenfold relentless attacks on the chief with waves of destroying heaven and earth.

With each surging and roaring wave, the power doubled, squeezing the chief’s body, resulting in clear distortions and fractures, as if he had been through a meat grinder.

Mu Nianqi’s ultimate attack was an AoE, using it on a single chief was somewhat a waste, but at the moment they couldn’t afford to care about that. If it weren’t for the insufficient Life Energy, she would even wish to summon clones to attack as well.

The Helmed Horror is when Lin Weiguo takes to a stance that forfeits some defensive effects, activating his most potent mode of attack.

The Guardian Angel behind the Old Soldier vanished, replaced by a hundred-meter-tall giant, its body covered in black Magic Runes. In addition to its bulkiest main pair of arms across its chest, ninety-nine further arms grew from its ribs, each one muscular and full of Destroying Heaven and Earth power.

Ten arms opened wide and smashed down hard on the chief, the speed was so fast that it stirred the air, numerous Wind Blades ravaged and cut deep fissures into the ground.

Several Newbies had bad luck, getting caught in it and cutting themselves open, they panicked and hastily retreated.

The Helmed Horror is a force of fury; it can throw large objects or Energy Bullets at a distance, possesses astonishing Jump and climbing capabilities, and can operate huge chains of energy conversion to bind opponents. The strongest move of the Helmed Horror can temporarily strengthen its arms, break through spatial barriers, and shatter various types of defenses and Shields, though at a significant Energy consumption.

After using the final move, Lin Weiguo would be forced into a dormant state for a period of time; if it wasn’t for the fusion with Nabistin’s Seed granting him strong recovery and physical strength, he would have collapsed long ago.

The Old Soldier also has the Warhammer of the Giants, and upon activation, it can create various Energy Weapons, so at this moment, each of the hundred arms is wielding a variety of weapons, throwing them at the chief.

These attacks are all persistent damage types and carry various negative effects such as burn, paralysis, poison, tear; the chief looked as if he went through a dye workshop, dozens of buffs mixed together on his body.

Jiang Xiuming and Dantai tried hard, but unfortunately, their ultimate abilities caused less damage to the chief than Level 1 British, Li Xinlan’s did.

The Ice Age Crystal Stars were activated, Octahedron Blue Crystal Ice Stars floated around, and within ten seconds, the weather that was originally pleasant in autumn had turned into the freezing Arctic.

The ground froze, ice layers spread, and the cold fields of the Ice Age trapped the chief, the Ice Age Crystal Stars exploded, forming an icy mist, dropping the temperature to absolute zero, and all moisture in the vicinity began to crystallize.

The chief’s organs were frozen, his perception was restricted, and his counterattacking moves were further hindered.

The ultimate ability of the British Soldier is the Star of Extreme Winter, an area effect skill, or it would have been cast directly onto the chief as well.

Tang Zheng didn’t need to make a move anymore, even though the chief, being an S-4, had some of the effects of the Queen’s Decree of halved defense evaded, he still couldn’t withstand this kind of fatal strike.

Under the decree of the cage, the chief could not dodge, and then crumbled into dust, dissipated in the air.

The energy suddenly released by the French team disturbed the nearby climate, clouds shifted, and the effects reached even further, drawing the attention of many.

"It’s Mu Nianqi!" Lu Fan shouted, having seen Queen Mu’s ultimate ability, "Uncle must be there too."

"What good does that do? We’ve been blocked with no way out, we can’t escape," Ruan Feifei coughed blood, her face pale.

Tao Ran and Dong Zixuan no longer had the strength to speak; without Qin Yan’s support, everyone would have died long ago.

This was a mixed squad composed of thirty-seven Trojan Squads from various regions; under normal circumstances, they would have already engaged in team battles upon meeting, but now, they were fleeing in defeat like stray dogs.

The allied forces of the chiefs had arrived and were hunting them down, riding war horses and pterosaurs from three sides, herding the survivors to flee in the predetermined direction.

If anyone got separated, the chiefs would swarm over and rip them to shreds.

"I hope uncle can come and save us," the Little Lolita prayed.

"Stop dreaming, even if your Group Leader is a Level 4 Hero, he’s going to die; based on the situation just now, it’s because he self-destructed," a female group leader from the company said with a helpless expression.

"Impossible, you’re talking nonsense," Lu Fan said angrily.

"Alright, even if he isn’t dead, he’s as good as dead now," the female group leader’s subordinate pointed at the sky, "Look, two more chiefs are flying over there."

The Great Chief stood on the back of a ferocious beast, glanced in the direction of the energy fluctuations, then waved his hand, and two chiefs immediately turned their pterosaurs and flew over.

The death of the chief left behind a fist-sized crystal, radiating a gentle light.

Pristine Life Essence, a rare S-grade artifact obtained from a specific scene, the life essence of the chief condensed; upon use, it can resist three fatal injuries.

"Finally dead," Jiang Xiuming reached out to grab the equipment, but Dantai beat him to it.

"Here, take a bite," Dantai rushed to the nearest Old Soldier, steadied him as he swayed, and shoved it into his mouth.

"Give it to Tang Zheng!" The Old Soldier wanted to save it, but it was too late. A bitter, fishy taste spread on the taste buds, and the crystal melted in his mouth.

Lin Weiguo’s originally battered body was immediately repaired.

Mu Nianqi was very weak; now, even a Level 1 Hero could kill her, but the queen did not refuse, bit a piece, and then took out a large number of potions and gulped them down.

"Recover quickly, creating such a commotion, the enemies must have seen it, and they might come over soon," Mu Nianqi’s words made everyone’s hearts sink, as they all remembered two chiefs had gone after the French team, given their strength, they were probably no match.

"What a pity, such a good artifact," Jiang Xiuming felt it was a waste, but quickly covered up his slip of emotion.

After consuming the crystal, Tang Zheng’s internal organs began to regenerate, his vocal cords weren’t healed yet, but at least he could speak now.

"Move, let’s go find those two chiefs."

Tang Zheng’s voice sounded as if scraping steel with an iron brush, excruciatingly unpleasant, almost tearing at the eardrums, and he coughed up blood with each word.

Fang Zhiwen crouched beside Tang Zheng, her hands glowing with white light, pressing on his chest.

"Heal your throat first," Tang Zheng pointed at his throat.

"Have you gone mad? I know you want to score a lucky hit on the chief, but you have to consider our condition," Jiang Xiuming refused, we can’t pull off another desperate counterattack.

"Tang Zheng is right," Dantai took out a flyer, "Quick, help them onto it."

"Are you also joining in his folly?" Jiang Xiuming was thoroughly frustrated, but despite being a Level 3 Hero, his influence in the team was too low, no one listened.

Fang Zhiwen and Xie Yundan did as instructed, the other newbies shrunk back; this battle had already terrorized them, none wanted a repeat.

"Didn’t you hear what I said?" Dantai stared at Shen Jiashu, emitting psychic waves.

Shen Jiashu wanted to resist, but ended up kneeling, crying out in agony.

"You fools, just one more chief to kill and we can leave this damned world," Dantai said fiercely, "Check the mission completion rate."

"What’s going on?" Jiang Xiuming glanced at his wristwatch and saw it marked that thirteen chiefs had been killed.

"The Silver Trojan didn’t screw us over this time; saying twenty chiefs, the strongest is only to the standard of a Level 2 Hero. A Level 4 Hero could count for at least ten heads," Dantai cursed angrily, "You think the French and British have no trump cards? They might also make a comeback, we go pick off a Level 4 Hero chief’s head, and we could end the mission."

Because of the intense battle, the Electronic Eye was damaged, unable to see the current situation of the opponents, but this risk was worth taking. (To be continued.
