Devouring City: My Mobile Town Evolves Infinitely - Chapter 38

No matter how angry he was, seeing Luo Yang Mobile City disappear from his sight in the blink of an eye, Bai Chen had no choice but to give up. He steered the White Tremor Mobile City, turned and left.

Of course, after this battle, they had a rough understanding of the strength of Luo Yang Mobile City and became increasingly anxious.

The first time he had fought them, he was able to suppress them, whereas the second time they were evenly matched. Such a terrifying speed of growth shocked Bai Chen and his men; they also became worried about their own safety.

After all, he had already utterly offended the Luo Yang Mobile City. At this rate of growth, it would not be long before the Luo Yang Mobile City’s strength surpassed that of his mobile city. By then, it would be the end for him.

“Looks like we can only go there… All listen up! Advance towards the Yan Huang Group in the northeast!”

After pondering for a while with his head lowered, Bai Chen gave the order.

…..

“We’re saved again! Thank you, City Lord! Long live, City Lord!”

“The City Lord has once again led us to create a miracle!”

On the other side, the Luo Yang Mobile City burst into cheers. Everyone was beaming with joy.

“Alright, alright. Everyone, go and get busy with your work!”

In the control room, Luo En smiled happily when he saw how happy the people in the city were.

Then, he turned on the System and checked.

If not for that strange shell this time, they would definitely be able to hold out for a few more hours without facing a life-and-death crisis.

After checking, Luo En finally found a similar shell in the Merchant City System and understood its name and function.

The production method of this kind of Quake Cannon was only in the hands of large mobile cities, and the production method would not be sold to external parties. Furthermore, the sale of the Quake Cannons had a specific time period. Sometimes, no matter how much resources you had, you would not be able to buy any. Hence, sometimes when this kind of Quake Cannons were put up for sale, they would be snapped up immediately. Even with money, there would be no market.

At the same time, he also knew the price of this type of cannons. It actually cost 8,000 Evolution Points! This was enough to buy the design blueprints of eight small detectors.

However, it was indeed worth the price. Although Luo En did not know the external market price of the Quake Cannon, he believed that it would be very expensive. After all, this was the best way to deal with the energy shields outside medium and large mobile cities. Of course, this was also the most costly method.

Quake Cannon… can cut off the power supply… It seems that when fighting against medium and large mobile cities in the future, this type of shells can effectively solve the problem of the energy shields outside the mobile cities. It’s just a little too expensive… It looks like I have to plan properly.

Luo En rubbed his chin and pondered.

This time it had really been a close shave. If the engine system was not repaired in time, at the last moment, the Luo Yang Mobile City might have been captured by the White Tremor Mobile City.

“City Lord, the White Tremor Mobile City didn’t follow us.”

At this moment, Wang Cheng said happily as he walked in from outside and came to Luo En’s side.

“Don’t celebrate too early. With Bai Chen’s personality, he definitely won’t stop just like that.”

Luo En frowned and spoke slowly after pondering for a while.

“Even if we run into them again, with our current strength, we don’t have to be afraid of them! It’s that strange shell… I’ve never seen it in all my years of living,” Wang Cheng said, troubled.

The Quake Cannon had left a deep impression on him.

“I already know the details of that cannon. It’s called the Quake Cannon. It’s used specifically to deal with mobile cities with energy shields. Once hit by the Quake Cannon shell, the Quake Cannon shell will emit a special energy that will cut off the power supply of the energy shield, causing it to lose its effect,” Luo En explained.

“So… No wonder our energy shield gradually lost its effectiveness!” Wang Cheng looked suddenly enlightened.

He then continued immediately, “Then does the City Lord have a way to deal with it?

“We will probably have conflicts with many large and medium mobile cities. The City Lord should think of a foolproof plan!”

Luo En narrowed his eyes and replied seriously, “That’s right, I have my own plans. All of you can continue with your work!”

“Yes, City Lord!”

With that said, Wang Cheng took his leave respectfully.

And Luo En reclined on his chair, quietly pondering how to deal with this.

…..

On the other side, Bai Chen had been steering the White Tremor Mobile City toward the Yan Huang Group.

After a long journey of a few hours.

Tall and magnificent buildings gradually came within the sight of the people.

It was very difficult to imagine that such tall and magnificent buildings could be built in such an apocalyptic world.

The tallest building had the words “Yan Huang Group” carved on it, and there was even a flag on it.

Beside the buildings was an open space with a radius of tens of thousands of kilometers, where more than ten mobile cities were parked currently.

There were small, medium, and even large mobile cities parked!

After all, humans were social creatures. Furthermore, in the face of an apocalyptic crisis, people not only had to face the attacks by mutated creatures at night but also the invasions by others. Hence, some people would band together in order to save their lives.

This was how the Yan Huang Group was born. There were many organizations similar to the Yan Huang Group existing in this world!

After Bai Chen had parked the White Tremor Mobile City in an empty lot, he led a group of men down.

“Hey! Isn’t this Bai Chen? Why does he look so upset and dejected? He looks like his mother had just died!”

Just as Bai Chen had stepped onto the ground, a harsh and sarcastic voice could be heard from behind him.

Bai Chen and his men turned around to look.

More than ten people walked over from behind them. They were all uniformly dressed in the same clothes. The person in front had a white beard, and there were only a few strands of hair sparsely scattered on his shiny head. His face was sallow, but his eyes were extremely sharp.

The mocking words earlier had come from this person.

Bai Chen and his men were already low in spirits because they had repeatedly failed to capture the Luo Yang Mobile City. When they heard these words, Bai Chen and his men instantly became infuriated, and they looked at Ouyang Ao and his men coldly.

“Ouyang Ao! What do you mean!” Bai Chen rebuked angrily.

There were two factions within the Yan Huang Group, each of which had a large mobile city in command. The forces under command were similar. Ouyang Ao’s Ouyang Mobile City and Bai Chen’s White Tremor Mobile City belonged to different factions.

As a result, the two sides did not see eye to eye with each other. They fought openly and covertly.

“Hehe, I wonder if City Lord Bai Chen will be able to complete the task this month. There are only four days left before the monthly test.

“But looking at your downcast face, I guess you won’t be able to complete the task. Hahahaha!”

Ouyang Ao had a proud look on his face which revealed a disdainful smile as he sneered..
