Witnessing this, the viewers felt a jolt in their hearts.
This old man had actually entered the fray himself, and was even using ghost energy!
"No sportsmanship! An old ghost fighting a little girl!"
"Is the power of money failing? This is a game of chess, old man, don't hurt anyone."
...
Watching her soldiers fall one by one, Xia Qingqing instinctively clenched her fists.
The jelly in her pocket spoke as if possessed, taunting, "The opponent is so strong, can you beat him?"
"General, let me go!" the left guard exclaimed.
The right guard immediately chimed in, "Rushing out now is no different from seeking death! General, you absolutely must not act impulsively..."
The jelly in her pocket scoffed, "Weren't you quite capable when you were hitting me? Now you're chickening out?"
"Shut up!"
Xia Qingqing patted the jelly in her pocket.
The left and right guards thought she was telling them to shut up, and immediately dared not speak further.
Before they could understand what was happening, in the next second,
They felt their shoulders suddenly empty,
And when they looked again, the General was gone!
Their hearts leaped, and they gripped the weapons at their waists, searching the battlefield with their eyes.
As soon as they found the General, they would immediately rush forward to protect her.
Soon, they found the General.
But...
There were no enemies around the General.
Xia Qingqing appeared beside a tall cannon, startling the soldier operating it, "General, you..."
"Can you see the opponent's commander?"
Xia Qingqing placed a hand on the cannon, her gaze fixed on the figure constantly flashing on the opposite battlefield.
The soldier paused, and blurted out, "Yes."
As a gunner, his eyesight was already excellent.
Although the opponent was fast, he could still see him.
"That's good."
Ghost energy surged from Xia Qingqing's hand, pouring into the cannon incessantly.
"When I say fire, you fire."
"Okay."
The soldier looked at the cannon in his hands, feeling that something was different.
Then he looked at the General beside him,
And felt an inexplicable aura of authority that made his heart tighten.
"Can we win?" the jelly in her pocket asked.
Xia Qingqing did not answer.
She didn't know either.
She had a special constitution since childhood. In crowded places, she could often see different things.
She was also stronger than ordinary people and had a strange power within her.
In this relatively peaceful society, she had hardly ever used her full strength.
She had no idea of her own capabilities.
At this moment, as that power continued to pour into the cannon,
She felt as if a barrier had appeared within her.
Or rather... a boundary.
There was some force preventing her from using more energy.
What was that?
Xia Qingqing was puzzled but did not show it.
She called out to the battlefield on the other side, "All soldiers, return!"
This call also drew the old man's attention to Xia Qingqing.
The key to winning or losing a game of chess
Lies in whether the opponent's commander has been captured.
The old man's ghost energy circulated, and the surrounding soldiers were all repelled.
He abandoned those small soldiers and generals, heading straight for Xia Qingqing.
His presence was imposing.
Xia Qingqing's throat moved, "Now! Fire!"
The soldier operating the cannon shivered, his gaze locking onto the rapidly moving figure.
He controlled the cannon.
Boom—!
A cannonball the size of a basketball, condensed entirely from ghost energy, shot out.
It left a trail of afterimages in the air.
The speed was extremely fast, combined with the impact of the cannon and the ghost energy.
The old man initially thought it was just a cannonball that he could swat away with a wave of his hand.
But as the cannonball approached,
The dense and pure aura emanating from it made him involuntarily panic.
What was going on? Why was there such a thing?
His thoughts raced through his mind.
In an instant, he only had time to raise his hands, bursting forth with his internal ghost energy to defend.
Under the gaze of countless eyes,
After being pushed back a zhang by the black cannonball, a deafening explosion finally sounded in the air.
The roar echoed in the ears of every soldier, and the ground seemed to tremble.
The soldiers looked at the scene before them, filled with shock.
At the center of the explosion,
A giant Lycoris radiata bloomed in the air.
It was breathtakingly beautiful.
...
(ps: Why did the jelly's tone of voice change? Because he has two personalities. One is Xu Asan, and the other is Xu Liu.)
