Crack, crunch!~!
There were plenty of sounds of flesh and bone being torn apart, along with some cries for help from the Mirror Twins, but they were largely drowned out by the Living Corpses and Toad.
Xu Le had no intention of staying here. While he had been tangled up with the Mirror Twins, the airship in the sky had already fired the Orbital Cannon a second time.
This time, though, it had targeted Area 6, practically on the opposite side from Area 3, where the Furnace stood.
Although the Orbital Cannon's energy consumption pained him somewhat, deploying this strategic weapon had also given all of Zion absolute confidence.
The confidence of the public, and that of those in power.
Xu Le knew exactly what this confidence would bring him. The public's confidence could bring him real power, pushing him into the ranks of those who held it.
The confidence of those already in power was more complicated, but what they offered was excellent as well.
More power, more money, more channels, and things he knew nothing about-secrets, perhaps, or the true framework of this world.
"Brother Gua," Xu Le suddenly called.
"What is it?" Golden Toad rubbed his mouth and walked over.
"Stop calling me My Lord from now on. It doesn't feel right."
Toad thought for a moment, then nodded.
"All right."
Xu Le smiled and nodded.
Changes brought about by differences in status and strength were practically inevitable. Hadn't even Yan Luo's attitude toward him improved considerably?
That was the change strength brought.
Xu Le did not deliberately say anything more. Some things only needed a brief mention.
"I'm heading back."
"Sure."
After fighting together so many times, the understanding between Xu Le and Toad needed no explanation. In a sense, Toad was his outstanding combat partner.
