Chapter 1341 - 1027: Sun Boat

Chapter 1341: Chapter 1027: Sun Boat

Imagine that.

If you were a misfortunate mercenary.

Fatherless and motherless from a young age, you spent half your life killing and burning for money, finally meeting an unsurprisingly normal end like every mercenary, which is dying a gruesome death.

Then, just at that moment, your brain suddenly misfires, there’s something wrong with it.

You suddenly feel that your life has no meaning or value.

You suddenly want to start doing good deeds.

And so, the endless torment begins like this...

Including but not limited to oppressive contracts, an eighty-year installment loan, overtime, firefighting, persecution, taking the blame, and workplace bullying from juniors, also being a tool person, being a tool person’s tool, and being a tool for a tool person’s tool person.

Predictably, if things continue like this, one day, you will become a tool for a tool person’s tool person.

Like an inherited curse you can’t escape, the cycle begins.

And most likely by that time, you might still be single...

This is the life of a despised tool person.

Every time you awaken from a long night, you will always turn on your phone, see the unchanged loan balance, light a cigarette in melancholy, and start reflecting:

— If this is the price of regaining your conscience, isn’t that conscience a bit too extravagant?

But tough times always come to an end.

You firmly believe this—if you keep moving forward and never stop, one day, you will usher in a bright future.

Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river.

Once you ignored me, now you can’t reach me.

Leaving the Huai Family, you have nowhere to stand... What? You are the Dragon King?!

Someday you can coolly chuckle, disdainfully look at the Heavenly Kingdom Cowherd’s trinket clinging to your thigh, and snort dismissively.

With such hope, you have endured through countless hardships and trials.

Finally, a ray of hope has come.

You actually advanced!

Advanced! Advanced!

After longing for this day like yearning for the stars and moon, the wife has finally become the granny, slaves can now turn over and sing the praises, but before you could laugh three times at the sky, just when you open your eyes, ten thousand people suddenly jump out to mess with you.

They even use cannons to attack!

What’s wrong with this world?

At this moment, on the Sun Boat, facing the blazing light coming straight at them, Raymond’s expression gradually turns numb.

A single tear drops from the corner of his eye.

So heartrending and sorrowful.

And then, there is no then.

Being directly blasted by a Destructive Colossus, capable of demolishing heavy defenses in the World Battle, you can think with your heel that there won’t be a good outcome.

Switch anyone else with them, and there wouldn’t even be ash left behind.

But after the blinding light, the Sun Boat still shines brightly, with Raymond maintaining his dull expression.

Unharmed.

Only the rippling waves by the ship dissipate more than half, and the projection of the Styx surrounding the Sun Boat is about to evaporate under this blast!

At this moment, under everyone’s gaze, Raymond stands dumbfounded for a long time, touching his face and body, finding himself whole and intact with disbelief.

Not only him, but even the terrifyingly hot Destructive Colossus on the opposite side falls into a daze.

Utterly baffled.

Only He Di’s expression gradually twisted, squeezing out an angry voice through clenched teeth:

"Sun Boat—"

The legendary miracle crystal bearing the Ra God, revolving around the Current Circumstances, one of the representative advancements on the Road of Eternity, can almost be seen as the worldly reappearance of the Authority Relic that solidified along with the gods!

After sacrificing many divine wonders and terrifying attack powers, what was obtained was the stability and robustness of its vessel—in simple terms, due to fear of pain, it was fully allocated to defense.

Representatively, the Styx surrounding the hull, which is not simply a projection or a recreation of some mysterious power, but rather a real part of the Styx itself.

Originating from the depths of Hell, where the Egyptian Gods solidified and fell, that thin shimmer of water light from the warped space wraps around the Sun Boat.

If you can’t break the defense of the Styx, you cannot touch the Sun Boat itself!

"Continue bombing, don’t stop!"

The Clown coldly commands: "I want to see how long a newly advanced Sun Boat can withstand it!"

Behind him, the Mystic Ritual reignites.

Another Destructive Colossus descends from the sky, unlike the massive and fierce attack type just now, this one is extraordinarily hunched and slender, like a mutated monkey, exuding numerous sticky abyssal sediments.

The moment it descends, it continuously emits high-pitched screeches.

The maliciously polluted sound waves condense into a bundle and echo across the battlefield, causing the Styx waves around the Sun Boat to shake violently.

"WTF, what’s going on! Why so many people?"

Raymond is on the verge of tears, "I just advanced, does it really warrant ten thousand people coming after me?"

And right on the deck, just having climbed up the ladder, Huai Shi patted his shoulder, comfortingly advising with sincerity, "After all, the Road of Eternity is a path of slaughter, as Dongxia says, it provokes the wrath of heaven by wounding the harmony, it’s not abnormal. This isn’t your fault, you don’t have to feel guilty."

Warmth surged through Raymond’s heart, and he instinctively nodded, "Thank you."

But upon finishing, he realized something seemed off.

How did it become my fault?

"No time to explain, drive quickly!" Huai Shi raised his voice in urging without waiting for further questions: "Run, run!"

In the distance, the colossal Destructive Colossus once again draws the blood and Source Substance from surrounding allies. The halo burns, and a new layer of light gathers in the giant eye on its chest.

Ready to strike!

If it hits this time, we’re truly done for!

The Sun Boat thunderously shakes, propelled by the winds of the Styx, sending the immense vessel speeding out without warning. It transitions from stillness to speed like lightning in an instant, yet everyone aboard remains unshaken.

As if everything beyond the ship’s railing is just a phantom.

Even the lock of the giant eye can’t keep up with the warship’s speed, as the scorching stream of light grazes the sail, flying towards the end of Hell.

Everyone collectively breathes a sigh of relief.

But before they can rest easy, they see, amidst He Di’s call, colossi of destruction descending from the cracks in the sky, with numerous massive eyes locking on their position from different angles.

Moreover, a colossus akin to a giant spider raises its abdomen and spews forth an ominous net that shrouds all of Hell. Even if its range is maximized, unable to maintain quality, it slows the Sun Boat’s speed significantly under the pull of countless threads.

Meanwhile, around the chariot, countless Curse Masters and creatures of Hell are also brewing their power, with countless eerie lights illuminating half the sky.

Sending chills down everyone’s spine.

"Lock and fire."

He Di points at the bow of the Sun Boat, their killing intent fierce: "That naked man is Huai Shi!"

"Good heavens, it really is you!"

Raymond is furious, glaring at Huai Shi, who still wears an innocent expression, with a desire to strangle him: "What immoral acts have you committed this time?"

"How would I know?"

Huai Shi’s face changes color, urging in alarm: "Cannon! Where’s your cannon? Fire it at them!"

"I’d love to, but you need to use currency to have any ammo!"

Raymond nearly cries, clutching the ship’s helm, frantically maneuvering, drifting around the enclosing forces, crushing many Hell creatures in the process, sending blood and flesh flying.

Countless streaks of blood pulled by gravity merge into the waves of the Styx, becoming the Sun Boat’s source of power, incinerating vigorously from the furnace.

Speed increases further!

Yet, this only highlights the Sun Boat’s greatest flaw—it has no means of resistance!

At best, it’s just a sturdy, fast hull.

Even with abundant reserves, it merely enhances the chariot’s underbody sturdiness, remaining a whiteboard, lacking everything and thankful just to have air conditioning. Dreaming of leather seats and Hi-Fi sound systems?

Keep dreaming!

In the Egyptian Sources’ narration, the Sun Boat bears the burning sun and traverses between Current Circumstances and Hell, once carrying gods deep into the Underworld to explore Hell’s origins.

The Road of Eternity perfectly replicated this aspect.

It is a vessel.

A vessel bearing miracles.

On the battlefield, the most crucial role is to carry Source Substance supplies, as the core, providing assistance and support to a wide range of allies nearby, including and not limited to Source Fuel, temporary maintenance, Battlefield Hospital, and even artillery bases and defensive structures when necessary...

The ideal is always beautiful, the reality always bleak.

To realize these functions requires numerous additional devices.

The Atum Armor greatly enhances defensive power, the Montu Unit supplies Source Substance consumption to hundreds of High Stage Sublimators simultaneously, the Isis Matrix provides treatment and life maintenance for the critically injured, the Seth Combat System offers wide-range firepower coverage, the Thoth Radar monitors depths covering all of Hell... and finally, the Ra Engine supports all of these.

Theoretically, these devices applied at Heaven’s Prison Fortress - Horus can all be mounted on the Sun Boat with the right methods!

Unfortunately, it requires money.

Wishing to grow stronger without spending is simply dreaming!

But now, even if they wanted to spend money, there’s nowhere to do so; they are deep in Hell, far from the nearest supply station by sixteen hells...

They’re doomed, unable to break out!

Raymond looks at the data from the Red Dragon radar, and the Heaven’s Prison net being closed in by He Di, as well as the endless adversaries ahead, feeling the urge to hang himself.

A total of sixteen Destructive Colossi!

Not likely that rulers from a dozen depths transferred all their war machines here.

This scale of combat power is enough for a head-on battle in the War of the Worlds!

He starts to wonder sincerely: how did Huai Shi manage, single-handedly, to become a mockery drawing fire from all of Current Circumstances?

Fleeing desperately still has its limits, even at greater speeds.

In the dark web, under the relentless constraints of countless forces, the Sun Boat eventually gets trapped in the dense encirclement, unable to move.

Next, under He Di’s command, several Destructive Colossi close in from all sides, sealing all avenues of escape, and completely engulfing them!

After the terrifying shockwave sweeps through, among countless leftover corpses, all that remains is a scrap heap of broken remnants.

As for Huai Shi on the deck, he already disintegrated the moment the bombardment arrived.

Dead?

On the chariot, He Di leans forward, observing closely, unable to believe this powerful rival of his just died like this under encirclement and firepower coverage?

But soon, he notices something strange...

Why does the ship’s wreckage under the firelight lack a shadow?

At that moment, alongside the collapse of the substance mimicry, the ship’s wreck rapidly disintegrates into a pile of metal scrap.

Meanwhile, outside the encirclement, in a corner of the Thunderclap White Plains, the Sun Boat’s figure reappears.

At the bow, Raymond laughs triumphantly.

"Surprised? I can create clones!"

The waves of the Styx surges, tearing apart Gregory’s illusion matrix, and finally, after prolonged brewing, opens the path to deeper layers of Hell.

——Depth Diving about to commence!
