Chapter 472: The Weakness of the Oudi Burner

In many people’s eyes, the Snow Silkworm Card Artisan Team was just a delicious meat that would make people’s mouth water. All of them were trying to take a slice of the pie in this joint operation. Therefore, their minds were synced as they had decided to send a squad of scouts in the hope to obtain the first hand information.

After all, the Snow Silkworm Card Artisan Team did indeed came so far by defeating the Downstream Alliance. Moreover, they had already achieved a stable financial situation ever since. If they were given options, any team with the same situation would definitely choose the same option, which would be to expand! Even though they did not planning to expand their territory, but the improvement in their abilities were proven to be true. Their fighting efficiencies were extraordinary in the past. However, every families there would like to know what would be their latest condition and how strong they had became. In addition, the Snow Silkworm Card Artisan Team had been keeping their operations low profile. After their fight with the Downstream Alliance, they had stopped implementing any large scale military activities. Moreover, the management in their base was strict. Until now, they could not even sneak into the base, not to mention getting any information.

In the eyes of outsiders, the Snow Silkworm Card Artisan Team was a puzzle to them. A puzzle that no one could have any idea in cracking it!

If it was not for the lead of the Blood Red Card Artisan Team, no one would ever be stupid enough to declare a war with a force without knowing their capabilities. However, the appearance of the Blood Red Card Artisan Team had managed to boost confidence level of all the forces in this operation. No matter how much the Snow Silkworm Card Artisan Team had expanded their team and territory, they could never stand a chance against the Blood Red Card Artisan Team which was at federation level. Moreover, the inaction of the Snow Silkworm Card Artisan Team had shown that they did not want to join the fight, which also did make the other forces became even unscrupulous.

However, the question on how to split the portion of this fat lump of meat had became a problem. The portion would be distributed according to their contribution throughout the operation. However, they have to preserve their strength. None of them would want to suffer from the retaliation of the Snow Silkworm Card Artisan Team. If they were to rush too close to the front while fighting against the caged beast, even if they were to win the fight in the end, they would not be qualified to go for the grand prize if they failed to escape unscathed after the final blow by the caged beast. They would become the prey for other forces. If they were to charge too far behind, they would not be able to deal damage to the caged beast, causing them to lose a great opportunity in vain.

Apart from the forces from Pascal Region, there were still several seemingly unrelated forces who had also sent their scouts to observe the situation.

This operation would not only affect the restructuring of the major forces in the Pascal Region.

As one of the most well-known card artisan team in Heavenly Drum Village District – Red Blood Card Artisan Team, each and every action they were to take would involve profits. Especially when they had decided to deploy their ace – the Blood Hammer Troop to guarantee in ending the fight quickly! If there were still people who were not aware of their capabilities, they would have changed their attitudes immediately once they heard of this.

The Blood Hammer Troop’s past battle results were outstanding. They were the core power of the Blood Red Card Artisan Team.

Although the people did not know about the operation, however, all of the forces, big and small, were placing their focus on the unknown and backward area, the old Pascal Region without exception.

At a distance far away from the battlefield, there were card artisans with different equipments hiding in the trees, in the snow, and behind boulders. All of them were looking at the battlefield while trembling their hands in fear. They did not dare not let down their guards and therefore, they were trying to record every scene and every corner of the battlefield!

The 800 card artisans would not be powerful enough for them, especially when they were facing against 2,000 card artisans.

But…

In front of them, all 800 card artisans immediately got swallowed by the sea of flame before they could even make any shot.

Looking at the flames that got onto their body, they were mourning in pain. Their shrilling yell of pain could be heard across the snow field, causing those who heard felt horrified. All the scout artisans who were hiding in the dark looked extremely somber.

“This is not a war. This is a massacre!”

Inside the transport shuttle, Bogner had finally opened up his lazy eyes. He looked at the chaotic situation on the screen but he did not show any joy of victory. As a matter of fact, all of them in the shuttle car had stopped what they were doing at the moment and started to look at the image projected by the screen in dazed. Sue Lochiro and Ru Chiu could not bear to look at the screen.

“The boss is indeed terrifying!” said Bogner.

“We are in trouble now”, said Bogner while smiling bitterly.

“Trouble?” Xi Ping did not manage to react to his question while asking in doubt, “I thought we have won? Why are you making a sad face? The one who should be sad should be me! Look at how much money I have wasted!” He felt a prick in his heart upon finishing his words.

Bogner gave Xi Ping white eyes. However, regarding the burning money issue of [Oudi Burner], he was not trying to argue with Xi Ping. He twisted his eyebrows and said, “I’m sure you have already saw the ability of the [Oudi Burner].”

“Yes I did! It is all good! My money was worth it!” said Xi Ping with a confident look.

“Yes, it is too good.” Bogner was touching his chin and said, “But it is too good to be true! Even the blinds could see such powerful effect! Do you know what’s the first thing that popped up in my mind when the Boss first demonstrated the [Oudi Burner] to me?”

“What is it?” said Xi Ping in curious. He was no the only one who was curious, but everyone in the shuttle had been drawn to their conversation. Although Bogner looked like a unfriendly old man as usual, but his level of intelligence was fathomless. However, he had spent too much time on sleeping, therefore, it would be a lot troublesome if one was to asked for his suggestions.

The expression on Bogner’s face was odd. “The first thing that came into my mind was the Faya Battle Shuttle Car! The [Oudi Burner] has many similarities with the shuttle car. However, the only difference is that the [Oudi Burner] has a higher cost and a more strict requirements before using it. However, its fire power is way stronger and therefore, it could be considered as an advanced version of the battle shuttle cards.

Everyone thought of what he had said for a second. After that, all of them nodded.

“It is indeed similar”. Jiang Liang gave his opinion directly.

Bogner’s eyes brooded and his voice got deeper. “Imagine the battle when battle shuttle cars were first introduced into the battlefield, that battle had elevated Faya to the level aligned with the Great Six. With any exaggeration, the appearance of the battle shuttle cars had made a tremendous change towards the entire state of the federation. The [Oudi Burner] is also a tool of war. If it was to be used in a large scale, its power would be absolutely astonishing. I believe that no one would expect a battle shuttle car to have such powerful potential. I can say for sure that after today, [Oudi Burner] would be heard throughout the Heavenly Drum Village District and even the entire federation.”

Bogner did not even hesitate upon listening to what he said. He was like describing an incident that had already happened in the past rather than a scenario that had yet to happen!

All of them became excited just because of this.

“But…” Bogner’s voice was showing that he was worried.

“As compared to Faya, we are way too weak. If Faya could have war weapons like that, no one would be dared to lay a hand on them. However, if it was in our hands, it would be a different situation. We are like a bunch of kids with six stars cards. What we have now would definitely attract the attention of any adults. In the past, the Blood Red Card Artisan Team’s purpose was to acquire the purple fluorescent ore extraction method. However, after today, our enemies will be even more! What they wanted now would not only be our extraction method of the purple fluorescent ore!”

It was completely silence inside the shuttle car.

The flames were sticking closely onto the energy barrier. The card artisans who stuck inside the barrier looked panicked. Deep inside their lifeless pupils, they were showing how reluctant and angry they were. As soon as the energy of the barrier was used up, it would be their death. While hearing their teammates mourning in pain, the rest of the card artisans who were alive felt like they were in hell.

A lot of card artisans had failed to switch their energy cards in time when the energy of the barrier was used up, and therefore, they ended up dead upon falling from the mid-air. What was more horrifying was that the flames were still burning on them upon death.

The survivors left now were all elite card artisans! The energy cards they had in their meters were of higher grades and they could hold the situation for much more longer.

The leader of the card artisans felt that it would be a dead end if they were to continue to proceed that way. It was the first time he faced against such strange and malicious card. He was a battle-scarred veteran and therefore, he could clearly understand that he has to be calm in order to survive in such disadvantage side. He had completely lost his spirit to fight back. In addition to the number of card artisans left, which was less than 50 manpowers, his only intention would be saving some resources for Dawei Card Artisans Team.

“Relax! You have to calm yourself down!”

The energy barrier could not be canceled. There were already someone else had already tried this in the past and ended up dead. If the energy barrier could not be moved, then the only thing they could move would be a jet stream card!

His eyes brighten up with hope. He then immediately cast his jet stream card without hesitating.

With the energy barrier on top of him, he immediately speeded up.

The wind was whistling outside his energy barrier, yielding intense air stream which caused the flame to jumble. However, no matter how strong the air stream was, the flames could never burnt out.

This still did not work! Veins started appearing on his forehead. His eyes were now filled with anger and the next moment, he screamed in madness!

His rapidly moving body suddenly started to spin like a high speed spinning top. The flames on the barrier had finally shown unstable signs.

He was spinning faster and faster, even his figure started to become blurry! Following a straight line, he started spinning forward with an advanced flying skill -Coaxial Self- Spinning Impact ! Such flying skill with superior difficulty had became his final savior.

Bang!

While spinning in rapid speed, he suddenly remove his energy barrier at the same time, causing the flames to lose its attachment and faded away into the air eventually upon failing to resist against the strong centrifugal force.

“I did it!”

He could finally breathe again with a heart full of joy. He felt like he was being unexpectedly rescued from a dangerous situation.

All of the other card artisans were lightened up upon observing what he did. They were trying to follow his steps by casting the Coaxial Self-Spinning Impact altogether.

While the card artisans who were hiding in the dark stood up with excited look on their face! They immediately record the scene even if they were to show themselves.

The despairing sea of fire turnt out to have weakness too!
