The person at the front gave the order, and the twenty or so men at the back immediately sprang into action, loading shells, igniting and aimed. Everything went smoothly.

With three loud booms, three shells flew out and headed fast toward the Black Dragon Mobile City below.

Luo En had long sensed Wang Yun’s wild ambitions. So when he came to the basin, he had already instructed the twenty over men, in advance, to lay in ambush there to prevent any unexpected event. Now, they could really be put to use!

“City Lord! Not… not good! There’s an ambush!”

“Run! Hurry!

At this moment, the people in the Black Dragon Mobile City saw the shells come fast at them in the air and yelled.

“How… how is this possible!” Hei Long muttered as he looked at the screen in front of him; the shells were clearly not coming from the direction of Luo Yang Mobile City. His hands were trembling slightly in shock.

They were out of ammunition now. Facing the three shells, even if they were fired by small cannons, it was not something that the Black Dragon Mobile City could easily withstand currently.

Seeing the shells get closer and closer, Hei Long pondered for a moment. Then, as if he had made a major decision, he gritted his teeth and said, “Deploy the energy shield!”

“City Lord! We can’t! That’s the resource that we’ve worked so hard to save up for. It’s an important guarantee for us to advance toward becoming a medium mobile city! Also, the energy shield hasn’t been fully built yet. It’ll be half ruined after a single use! If it’s damaged, all our efforts will be wasted!” Someone immediately refuted Hei Long in panic.

The important factor distinguishing between small mobile cities and larger mobile cities was whether they had an energy barrier! This was a protective shield that could be very effective against artillery shells, and it could also absorb the energy from the shells and convert it into the mobile city’s own energy.

If a medium mobile city deployed its energy shield, even if it were to remain still and let a small mobile city attack it for three days and three nights, it would not have the slightest issue.

“Then you tell me how to block!” Hei Long roared at the man who spoke.

“This—”

The man had wanted to refute, but Hei Long interrupted him and said decisively, “There’s no need to say anymore. I’ve already decided. Deploy the energy shield!”

“This… Alright, deploy the energy shield!”

The man was helpless, but there was nothing he could do. Right now, the only thing that could resist the three shells outside was their energy shield. No matter how much it pained him, he had to deploy it. Otherwise, if the shells flew into the mobile city, most of the buildings in the city would turn into ruins.

The man gave the order, and immediately someone went to the control room, reached for the button that controlled the energy shield, and pressed it.

Immediately, ores were rapidly consumed. Ripples spread out and white light was emitted from the edge of the mobile city, which was then enveloped by the white light, gradually forming an energy shield.

Just after this was done, the three shells in the air also crashed onto the energy shield of the Black Dragon Mobile City.

The explosion resounded in the ears of the people in the Black Dragon Mobile City, and the mobile city shook.

All in the Black Dragon Mobile City prayed that their mobile city would be able to withstand the attack by the three shells.

When the scene was clear, everyone looked over and discovered that the energy shield outside only rippled slightly after suffering such an attack. They could not help but cheer happily.

When Luo En and the others saw that the three perfectly timed shells were blocked just like that, they lamented.

“This… energy shield?!”

“Isn’t the energy shield only available in medium mobile cities? Are they a medium mobile city?”

“It’s over! We’ve encountered a medium mobile city, how can we fight it!”

Luo En’s people looked at the energy shield outside the Black Dragon Mobile City and were shocked; they fell once again into a state of panic.

Luo En looked at the panicking crowd and reassured them. “Don’t panic! Look carefully. They’re not a medium mobile city. They only have an energy shield. Furthermore, this energy shield can’t absorb the energy of shells. They haven’t fully built it. This energy shield won’t last long!”

“You’re right, City Lord!” Everyone started to observe. After realizing that it was just as the City Lord had said, they heaved a sigh of relief.

It seems that Black Dragon Mobile City is very ambitious… Since you were the one who made the first move, don’t blame me! Luo En thought to himself.

Then, he spoke into the small token in his hand, “Continue firing!”

When the men on the flat high ground received the order, they quickly loaded the shells, ignited, aimed, and fired!

Another round of attacks was launched at the Black Dragon Mobile City. The shells then hit the energy shield of Black Dragon Mobile City again. Explosions rang out continuously, and the rippling on the energy shield became more and more rapid.

“Hahahaha, they think they can break through our energy shield? What a joke!”

“Yes, yes. I didn’t expect our mobile city to have an energy shield! Now, we don’t have to worry anymore; we’re already invincible!”

The people in the Black Dragon Mobile City said excitedly as they saw several rounds of shells all being blocked by the energy shield outside the city.

However, Hei Long and his men were full of anxiety. The residents in the city did not know, but how could they not know? The energy shield outside the city was not of the same level as the energy shield of a medium mobile city. And, their energy shield would not be able to last much longer.

“City Lord! What should we do? We can’t hold out much longer!” Someone beside him asked anxiously.

Hei Long did not say anything. Instead, he looked at the energy shield outside the city, constantly assessing whether or not the energy shield could keep blocking the bombardment of shells.

After thinking for a while, Hei Long gritted his teeth and said, “We’ll surrender! We’ll negotiate with them!”

He did not want to take the risk! If Luo En’s side still had ammunition, then their energy shield would be penetrated soon. By that time, they would be at their mercy. If they surrendered to negotiate now, they could still take a bet. They could still bank on the chance that the other side too had run out of ammunition. In this way, as long as they were tough during the negotiation, their situation would not be as helpless.

“Hei Long City Lord! How can you surrender? Have you forgotten our agreement?” Upon hearing the news, Wang Yun ran over and questioned Hei Long indignantly.

Upon hearing, Hei Long immediately cursed at Wang Yun, “This is the weak Luo Yang Mobile City you spoke of?! Look at it yourself! We have already suffered huge losses. We can’t continue to waste our resources. If it wasn’t for you, the energy shield that our mobile city had painstakingly saved up resources to build would not have suffered such damage?”

Wang Yun was taken aback by Hei Long’s berating. He looked at the flat ground, on the screen, where the shells were continuously fired from, and stood frozen in place.

He did not know what had just happened. He had run out after only hearing news that Hei Long wanted to surrender and negotiate.

He had not pre-empted that Luo En would lay an ambush. Looking at the flat high ground, Wang Yun was filled with regret.

He had also been observing Luo En’s movements previously. Back then, he found that Luo En was always staring at the high ground. He had thought that Luo En was only checking out the surrounding conditions for ores. He did not expect that Luo En had already thought of a way out then.

Wang Yun, who had snapped back to his senses, grabbed Hei Long’s arm and immediately shouted, “Hei Long City Lord! Luo Yang Mobile City can’t last much longer! Quickly attack them! What should I do if you surrender? I have forsaken my mobile city to help you all. Is this how you treat me?”

When Hei Long saw that Wang Yun still dared to shout in front of him, he immediately said indignantly, “Men! Drag him away and execute him!”

“Yes!” Two men came in immediately and dragged Wang Yun out, one on his left and one on his right.

“No! Hei Long, you can’t do this! Hei Long! You despicable person! I won’t let you off even if I become a ghost!” Wang Yun shouted in panic, but he could not break free from the restraints of the two men beside him.

Following a poignant scream, the commander of a generation was mercilessly killed.

After hearing the scream, Hei Long rubbed his chin. He pondered for a while and said indifferently, “Keep his head properly! We’ll need it later!

“Yes, City Lord!”

Back to Luo En’s side.

At this moment, the small token in Luo En’s hand vibrated. Then, a voice could be heard. Ammunition had run out on the high ground.

The people heard this and fell silent.

“City Lord! What should we do now? The energy shield on the other side is still there!” Wang Cheng said anxiously.

Luo En thought about it and said, “If there’s really no other way, we’ll have to negotiate!”

“This is the only way!” After hearing Luo En’s words, everyone nodded in agreement.

“Luo En City Lord! We can’t continue fighting like this. It will only be a waste of resources. Why don’t we sit down and talk it out?” Just as Luo En was about to pick up the walkie-talkie to speak, Hei Long spoke first..
