Chapter 698: Be Exposed: Gao Neng, Crown Prince of the Dragon Race

The Celestial Race.

One of the largest races in the Eastern District.

Unlike the motley crew of the Beast Race, the Celestial Race was far more uniform. Moreover, the Celestial Race possessed an incredibly powerful corps… the Great Angel Corps.

This corps wasn’t large in number, but its combat prowess was absolutely terrifying. It could be called the trump card of the Celestial Race.

“Is that the Great Angel Corps?!” Seeing the mass of white light pressing down from the sky, everyone finally understood.

It was, indeed, the Great Angel Corps of the Celestial Race.

For this corps to arrive at such a coincidental time…

It couldn’t possibly be an accident.

The Six-winged Great Angel had been suppressed by Bloodthirst and Qin Lei since the battle began, constantly dodging without truly striking back. His goal was to wait for the Great Angel Corps to assemble.

And now, the time was obviously ripe.

Just as the Six-winged Great Angel activated Celestial God’s Descent, the Great Angel Corps arrived!

“KILL!!”

The cries of battle shook the heavens.

Fifty “Celestial Gods” emerged from the pillars of light and dove down.

“Four wings!”

“Silver battle armor…”

“Each of these ‘Celestial Gods’ has reached Tier Nine!”

“…”

As these Celestial Gods drew near, the expressions on Qin Lei and the others finally changed.

No one could have imagined that the Six-winged Great Angel had such a move, capable of directly summoning fifty Tier Nine Four-winged Celestial Gods.

This was even more frightening than the Beast Race Sword Saint’s blade!

Even in such a dire situation, the Six-winged Great Angel still didn’t choose to retreat. Instead, he directly showed his hand to force a showdown with the humans.

BOOM!

BOOM!

The sound of explosions rang out.

Fifty Tier Nine Four-winged Celestial Gods had joined the fray.

The Great Angel Corps had also descended.

Originally, the Human Alliance and the North District Alien Race had held the advantage in the number of Strongest. But now, with the addition of this force, that advantage was instantly nullified.

“Six-winged Great Angel!” Qin Lei roared. Just as he was about to charge the Six-winged Great Angel again, he was intercepted by five Tier Nine Four-winged Celestial Gods.

One against five!

Qin Lei’s brows furrowed slightly.

Although he was one of the Strongest, he still didn’t dare to be careless while fighting five opponents at once.

The battle between the two sides ignited in an instant.

And Bloodthirst’s situation was really no different from Qin Lei’s.

When he prepared to strike again, five more Tier Nine Four-winged Celestial Gods surrounded him and swiftly launched their attack.

Compared to Qin Lei,

Bloodthirst seemed to be having a slightly easier time.

But only slightly.

This was because the Defense Power of these Tier Nine Four-winged Celestial Gods was incredibly high.

A palm strike from Bloodthirst landed on one of their silver suits of armor, yet it only managed to crack it.

That was absurd.

One had to remember, Bloodthirst was one of the three great Strongest of the North District.

While battling the Beast Race Sword Saint, Northwest Wolf glanced over at Bloodthirst. ‘These Tier Nine Four-winged Celestial Gods… are probably not that simple!’

He knew full well the extent of Bloodthirst’s power.

Therefore, these Four-winged Celestial Gods were definitely not ordinary Tier Nines.

SWOOSH!

At that exact moment, the Six-winged Great Angel made his move.

With Bloodthirst, Qin Lei, and the Revived surrounded, he headed straight for a figure in the distance who had yet to make a move.

There’s a saying: to catch bandits, first catch their king.

The Six-winged Great Angel clearly understood this principle well.

…

「Military Command Center.」

Gao Neng had one arm around Shen Ning’Er’s waist and the other drawing the ‘Invincible Saber,’ because he had seen what was on the screen.

The Six-winged Great Angel was charging toward Xu Zilan.

‘Celestial God’s Descent?’ Gao Neng’s brows furrowed. He felt a faint sense of familiarity with this bizarre move.

This was because he had seen a similar move when he fought Mu Feifei.

The difference was…

Mu Feifei had used Angel’s Descent.

Back then, after Mu Feifei used that move, all the ‘Light Angels’ she summoned possessed even greater attack power than her own body.

And they were quite ethereal.

Gao Neng had never figured out the principle behind that move.

But now, after seeing the Six-winged Great Angel’s ‘Celestial God’s Descent,’ he felt like he was beginning to understand.

Mu Feifei’s move was probably a simplified version.

She only summoned Light Angels.

The Six-winged Great Angel’s, however, was an enhanced version, capable of directly summoning Tier Nine Four-winged Celestial Gods—and in far greater numbers than Mu Feifei.

What an absolute gap in power.

However, none of that mattered now. What was important was that the Six-winged Great Angel had played his trump card, and the war had reached a fever pitch.

Victory and defeat now hung on a knife’s edge.

“Gao Neng, what are you doing?” Wu Qingjing asked immediately upon seeing Gao Neng draw his saber.

“That’s my mom,” Gao Neng said without further explanation. He let go of Shen Ning’Er and strode toward the command center exit.

“Your mom?!” Wu Qingjing’s eyes widened in disbelief.

If he remembered correctly, Gao Neng was from the Forgotten Land. And his mother… wasn’t she just an ordinary person?

How could she possibly be on the battlefield?

And floating in mid-air, no less…

She was clearly one of the Strongest!

“Gao Neng, should we make a move?” Qin Jianfei obviously had no time to ponder the matter of Gao Neng’s mom; he was more focused on winning the battle.

Now, with the addition of fifty Four-winged Celestial Gods and the Great Angel Corps, the advantage the Strongest had on the battlefield was effectively gone.

Not only was it gone, but they were now even at a slight disadvantage.

Therefore, he was inclined to intervene.
