Chapter 4830
Zhuque's eyes turned cold, and with a flap of her wings, she swiftly flew to the forefront of the lava tsunami.
Facing the scorching lava pouring down from tens of meters high, her face showed no panic. She simply raised one hand, her fingers slightly spread, as if casually, and placed her palm towards the earth-shattering torrent of fire.
The next instant—"Ice Prison Vermilion Bird!"
A pure, cold, and still blue flame bloomed in her palm.
It's not burning, it's "devouring".
The ball of icy blue flame expanded from a single point into a whole with almost philosophical silence, instantly transforming into the outline of a giant Vermilion Bird.
The lines are as delicate as runes carved from frost, while the wings are intricate, forked, and densely packed, like hundreds of layers of extremely thin blue crystal sheets stacked together.
It gently swayed forward.
The roar stopped for a moment.
The magnificent wave of fire, upon contact with the feather, was not extinguished or frozen, but rather taken over.
All the heat, kinetic energy, radiation, and impact folded inward at the contact surface, absorbed by the blue flame, and transformed into new, pure icy blue power.
The churning at the crest of the fire wave was frozen in time, and the fiery currents inside seemed to be instantly drained of their source, the red and gold gradually fading to blue.
The next instant, the entire sea of fire was flattened as if by an invisible giant hand, pressing down all the way to the ground, emitting a suppressed "crack!" sound.
The entire front of the city was blocked by Suzaku with a single hand.
This scene was projected live onto the giant screen in the Donghai City command center!
Li Guangxiao stood in front of the circular screen in the command center, the buttons on his military uniform collar reflecting a cold light.
He didn't offer any praise, but simply took a deep breath and said crisply, "Zhuque, continue the rescue and suppression. Tu Yunlie, please conduct an outer interception. Be careful not to be ambushed by the enemy."
"Xuanwu has entered the edge of the war zone and is on standby."
Li Guangxiao frowned slightly: "If things go wrong, he will provide support immediately."
Xuanwu, as the foundation, is currently at the port outside Donghai City.
With the external situation changing rapidly, he could not leave at will.
In the earphones, Zhuque's voice was calm and normal, "Received."
Tu Yunlie slammed his fist into the ground, sending out bursts of fire that directed the surging heat from the ground into the diversion channel he had designated. "Understood, Commander Li. I will work closely with Zhuque!"
At this moment, in Blizzard City, Jiangnan.
Zhu Zheng rested one hand on the edge of the desk, the other behind his back, his gaze as gloomy as the back of a knife in the rainy night.
Zhu Yu sat to one side, his posture languid, but his eyes were like an unsheathed long sword as he gently poked at a balancing pigeon on the table.
She was eager to try, and her warlike nature and desire to devour more powerful individuals resurfaced.
But now Zhu Zheng is keeping a close eye on her and has explained the pros and cons; otherwise, she would have slipped away quietly long ago.
Secretary Lan Xincheng's fingers flew across the keyboard as he switched the satellite angle. "The Vermilion Bird has deployed a large-scale ice prison to absorb energy, and Tu Yunlie is constructing an explosive pressure recoil."
"The underground magma eruption has been temporarily suppressed. However... no signs of ancient civilizations have yet appeared."
Zhu Zheng was staring at the screen when he suddenly turned his gaze and said, "Keep the frame!"
The blue and red on the screen were still locked in a stalemate when, in the next instant, the ground seemed to be lifted up by a row of invisible giant piles!
Five blazing "pillars of fire" rose straight up from the sea of lava, like five red-hot spears piercing the night.
The flames died down, revealing five figures standing atop the pillar.
They rose from the ground, the pillars of fire beneath their feet condensing into swirling, molten gold steps in mid-air. Crimson light patterns, like living things, spiraled and climbed along their ankles, finally settling into the grooves of their armor.
"Click!"
A very soft click of the clasp, as if some ancient royal authority had taken its place upon them.
Five tall, crimson figures stepped out of the lava and appeared before Tu Yunlie and Zhuque!
They were tall, with tendons that looked like knife marks carved out of volcanic rock. Their crimson armor was not worn, but integrated with their skin and flesh, with fine melting marks on the edges of the armor plates.
