MM Racing Chapter 61 The Dragon King's Trap
Chapter 61 The Dragon King's Trap
Lu Mingfei looked up at the rapidly collapsing cracks above him and carefully strapped the bomb to one of his twin swords.
"What are you going to do?"
If there's no way out, create one.
Lu Mingfei frowned as he replied. If he could get back alive, he would definitely kick the man who made the bomb hard in the butt with his boots.
The explosion time is set using a brass knob—how absurd!
He wanted it to be set to about half a minute, and designing such a precise time is extremely difficult!
"Alright!!! Susie, draw the bow!!!"
Upon hearing this, Susie reached out and used her sword again.
Lu Mingfei tensed his muscles to the limit, estimating the time it would take for the water level to rise... Now!
Susie saw a flash of white light, which pierced straight towards the rising water level.
then.
"boom!!!!!"
An extremely violent explosion resounded, and a huge flash of fire illuminated the underwater area for a moment. A violent shockwave, along with bronze fragments, flew in all directions.
Even though the distance was quite far, the shockwave from the explosion still made Lu Mingfei stagger.
His eyes widened in disbelief; he never dreamed that this bomb would be so incredibly powerful.
He originally thought that blasting out a hole for the two of them to crawl through would be enough.
This hole is big enough for the two of them to walk out sideways right now.
Lu Mingfei quickly drew his last remaining longsword and swung it repeatedly to precisely block the flying bronze fragments.
"Okay, get ready, what's coming next is going to be very impactful."
Lu Mingfei saw that the water level had already overflowed the cave entrance, but even so, a large amount of water must have flowed into the Bronze City.
But no matter what, it's much more practical than trying to fly off the waterfall overhead. He's not a Pokémon; he can't do waterfall climbing.
Even so, it wouldn't be easy to rush out against the huge current, so Lu Mingfei prepared to use gravitational potential energy to help him rush out.
Okay! I'll jump!
Lu Mingfei took two steps at a time, his feet pounding into the bronze wall beneath his feet, creating dents.
He leaped down and charged straight toward the huge hole he had just blasted open.
Even through the helmet, Susie could hear the whistling wind in her ears.
She's a diver, so she knows what high diving is all about.
Judging from the sound of the wind and the speed at which he jumped into the water, if the water below hadn't been flowing, it would have been no different from hitting the ground directly.
But even if it's a flowing surface, it won't be much better; it's probably just the difference between a concrete surface and a mud surface.
Even if she were a dragon hybrid, she would probably have a hard time with Lu Mingfei standing in front of her right now.
"thump!!!!"
Lu Mingfei had no idea what Susie was thinking. He used his falling speed to rush out of the water that was frantically pouring into the Bronze City and even rushed out quite a distance.
He quickly used his strength to grab onto the rocky opening that had been blasted open outside the Bronze City, and climbed out with Susie.
"Sizzle—"
Suddenly, Lu Mingfei's earpiece received a signal, and Manstein's excited voice came through it.
"Mingfei! You—"
"Prepare for battle! The Dragon King isn't even in Bronze City!"
As Lu Mingfei roared, he pulled Susie to the surface. At this moment, Susie let go of him, and he took the metal box from her hand.
Because Susie's ascent speed with this thing was still too slow.
Lu Mingfei decided to personally carry the device to the surface, so that their speeds would be roughly the same.
Manstein was stunned; the snake was forcibly taken over the moment it connected with Tong Mingfei!
Along with his body, his golden eyes burned brightly. Manstein turned his head to look at the entire arena and roared in sync with Lu Mingfei.
"Caesar, look outside!"
"Chu Zihang, look outside!"
Just as Manstein shouted, someone exclaimed in surprise. Everyone turned to look over there. Outside the window was a thick white fog. Fog?
Why is there fog in this weather?
No! That's steam! High-temperature steam enveloped the entire New Moniach.
A huge black shadow loomed in and out of the steam.
"He's here, the King of Bronze and Fire. He's heating the river to create steam, obscuring our vision. It seems he has a plan; he's here to hunt us down."
Zero analyzed the current situation in this way, and at the same time—
"The ship's cabin has been damaged!"
"Sonar destroyed!"
......
One bad news after another kept coming in, making Lu Mingfei, who was still surfacing underwater, feel dizzy. He really wanted to curse, "What are you all good for?"
But he simply commanded Manstein to continue yelling.
"Caesar, take charge of the torpedoes! Zero and Chu Zihang, provide backup! Remember to be fully armed!"
Caesar paused, stunned. "Us? Who? What's going on? Lu Mingfei forcibly requisitioned Manstein's snake? Is that really possible?"
But Ling and Chu Zihang had already rushed down without hesitation, so he didn't think twice and went to prepare to launch the torpedoes.
That's right, his Kamaitachi can replace the sonar at this time.
"But how could sonar... that's it!"
Thoughts froze for a moment when a clanging sound rang out – the sound of their sonar generator falling to the ground.
It was thrown by a man in iron gray who had dismantled their sonar generator. At that moment, he started running, his body flashing with fire, and he leaped into the water like a fish.
-----------------
After leaving Bronze City, Lu Mingfei and Susie encountered a problem.
The boat cannot be found.
Underwater visibility is less than five meters, or even less.
As Lu Mingfei watched the cracks in the glass in front of his hood multiply due to the water pressure, he felt an overwhelming sense of urgency.
However, after forcibly requisitioning Manstein's "Snake," the situation improved significantly; all that was needed was to shorten the distance between him and Manstein in a straight line.
Lu Mingfei even found the data cable they used to connect during their dives. After finding it, he stopped requisitioning Manstein's "Snake".
It has to be said that the principle of "a desperate army will surely win" is still incredibly powerful. He fell into the Dragon King's trap and became a desperate army, so they escaped and made their way here. It was all thanks to the principle of "a desperate army will surely win".
Whether it's really true or not is hard to say, but that's how Lu Mingfei feels.
They could now see the searchlights of the ships on the water, and Lu Mingfei smiled.
"Haha, now I'm going to give Manstein a good dressing down. The principal and the board of directors have practically walked us into the dragon king's trap. Want to join in?"
"Hehe, I'm not very good at this."
Susie responded with a smile.
"I can go by myself. Don't worry, you'll definitely get a share of the benefits I'm asking for. You can give this to Senior Brother Zihang; he might be incredibly grateful."
Susie tried to speak, but was interrupted by Lu Mingfei's suddenly serious tone.
"No, am I seeing things, or am I seeing a dark shadow?"
Lu Mingfei's words reached Susie's earphones, and she instantly became much more alert.
But it was no use; the disturbance from the water was already closing in, and the dragons were simply too fast.
Norton commanded the dragon servant, which was similar to the previous second-generation species, to destroy the alchemical warhead of the New Moniahe Storm Torpedo. Just as it swam past them, the dragon servant saw the two little creatures.
Perhaps thinking it was just a convenient thing to do, the dragon lashed out at the two of them with its tail.
But for a creature like a dragon, a flick of its tail is as terrifying as a cannonball.
As the shadow behind Susie grew larger, Lu Mingfei unhesitatingly pulled Susie behind him and immediately raised his sword to block.
"Snap!"
Lu Mingfei's weathered longsword shattered, but the dragon's tail continued its momentum, striking Lu Mingfei's chest hard.
Susie could only watch helplessly as Lu Mingfei was struck by the dragon's tail and instantly swept away. The water became murky, and Lu Mingfei disappeared without a trace.
She tried to reach out and grab the other person, but only managed to grasp the hilt of the sword, which was attached to half of the blade.
