Chen Ye never dreamed that, in the face of such a terrifying creature, there would actually be someone crazy enough to want to attack it.

Even an idiot would know this creature in front of them was definitely not easy to deal with.

Just its aura alone made Chen Ye feel his palms sweating.

He was only a Sequence 2, not a Sequence 9.

Not only did Chen Ye not expect it.

No one present could have expected it.

The artillery fire struck the horrifically wounded back of the black dragon.

The smell of gunpowder drifted over through the air.

The black dragon was enraged. Its massive dragon head swung lightly, opening its enormous maw towards the Apocalyptic Fortress.

“Wuuuuu——Aaaang——”

A mass of black flame instantly shot out.

In Chen Ye’s pupils, that black flame was mixed with countless miserable, wailing wraiths.

It was clearly in a state of flame, yet it carried not a shred of temperature.

It only made one feel a bone-piercing, yin coldness.

It was precisely this kind of black flame that brought Chen Ye an immense sense of terror.

Chen Ye dared to be certain that within this black flame absolutely brewed incomparably powerful, irresistible energy.

The target of the black flame was precisely the third floor of the Apocalyptic Fortress.

The third floor of the Apocalyptic Fortress, which even Hatred had been unable to deal with before, disintegrated the instant it encountered that black flame.

As for that imposing white figure who had previously stood before the third-floor floor-to-ceiling window, with the arrival of the black flame, he couldn’t even make a single sound.

“Don’t move!”

Just as Chen Ye, horrified, was about to transform his body into blue smoke to distance himself from this trouble spot.

Two words came through the radio from Captain Chu.

Chen Ye’s movement instantly froze.

“Wuuuuu——Aaaang——”

After one mouthful of black flame annihilated the three stories of the Apocalyptic Fortress, the black dragon roared furiously towards the sky.

Cold sweat covered the pink-haired girl’s forehead and back.

In her heart, she had already cursed that idiot countless times.

Ding Dong clenched her fists tightly.

Even someone as indifferent as her, at this moment, wished she could drag that idiot out and give him a thorough scolding.

Iron Lion’s entire body was tense, muscles bulging. Both of his heads were fully awakened, all four eyes fixed intently on the terrifying black dragon before them.

As if without gravity, the black dragon’s body floated into the air above the camp.

Its roars continued unceasingly.

It seemed to be roaring in fury.

“Wuuuuu——Aaaang——”

The sound shook the surroundings, making people’s hearts tremble slightly.

A few minutes later, the black dragon finally shook its head and tail, dove into the cloud layer, and disappeared from everyone’s sight.

Only then did everyone collectively take a deep breath.

Chen Ye finally tapped to stop the recording function on his phone.

His phone happened to run out of battery.

Traces of undissipated terror still lingered in everyone’s eyes.

“This is fucking… completely a lunatic!”

“God damn it…”

Chen Ye cursed angrily between gasps.

“Delusion… Delusion Sequence… side effects…”

The stuttering man, Chen Hao, next to him, stammered, trying to express something.

“Stop, are you trying to say this is the side effect of the Delusion Sequence?”

“Mhm mhm mhm…”

“Delusion… Delusion Sequence… are all lunatics… all of them…”

Chen Hao struggled to finish a sentence, then fell silent.

The others all nodded in agreement.

Just then, exclamations of surprise came from nearby.

Chen Ye turned his head to look.

That ridiculously exaggerated Apocalyptic Fortress began to dissipate bit by bit.

That’s right, dissipate.

All the existing metal, glass, tires, and everything else, at this moment, slowly dissipated into points of light.

This Apocalyptic Fortress was materialized from the delusions of that Delusion Sequence superhuman.

After he died.

This Apocalyptic Fortress seemed to want to return from reality back to delusion.

Panicked survivors scrambled out from within the Apocalyptic Fortress.

Soon, over a hundred terrified survivors were gathered in the open space.

It was simply…

When the last tire completely vanished into nothingness, the spot where the Apocalyptic Fortress had been parked was left with only a huge pile of various supplies.

Most of these belonged to the survivors from the Apocalyptic Fortress.

These were things the survivors had painstakingly accumulated, not items materialized by the Delusion Sequence.

Another portion was the supplies stored by the Apocalyptic Fortress itself.

Chen Ye even spotted several bottles of red wine and several suits that looked very high-end among them.

Probably left behind by that lunatic.

Everyone looked at each other.

For a moment, no one knew what to say.

Only Chu Che, Squad Leader Chu, faintly felt his scalp tingling.

That lunatic just now, for some unknown reason, had a fit and suddenly provoked the black dragon, then died.

But he left behind over a hundred survivors.

Previously, he had agreed with that so-called “Emperor” to exchange for a portion of survivors.

That was because the convoy currently only had over twenty people, and he was already a Sequence 2.

The convoy could take on a few more people.

Moreover, he had a premonition that it wouldn’t be long before he advanced to Sequence 3.

Sheltering this small number of survivors wasn’t a big problem.

But…

But now there were suddenly about a hundred and fifty more people.

This had completely disrupted Chu Che’s plans.

One must understand, the more people there are, the easier it is to be discovered by anomalies.

Furthermore, the convoy suddenly had so many more people.

The convoy simply didn’t have that many vehicles.

It was utterly ridiculous.

Among the crowd of over a hundred people, someone suddenly ran towards the supplies left behind by the Apocalyptic Fortress.

Once one person acted.

Soon, others began to act as well.

In an instant, the entire scene turned into a chaotic marketplace.

Everyone frantically ran towards those supplies left in the distance.

“This is mine, let go!”

“Bullshit! Whoever grabs it gets it!”

“Damn, you still think you’re nobility? The Emperor is gone!”

“Let go, or I’ll beat you to death!”

Soon, two people were wrestling.

After the first fight, a second quickly followed…

Soon, these survivors who originally belonged to the same convoy instantly began brawling with each other.

When Chu Che got out of the vehicle and saw this scene, he felt his scalp go numb.

“Iron Lion, I leave it to you!”

Chu Che had no choice but to say to Iron Lion, who had somehow appeared beside him.

Iron Lion grinned foolishly, “Alright!”

His iron-tower-like body walked towards the still-chaotic crowd.

Whether men or women, anyone fighting was easily tossed far away by Iron Lion.

Some were initially indignant, but upon seeing Iron Lion’s two-headed, four-armed appearance, they all became obedient.

As for Chen Ye, just after getting out of the vehicle and lighting a cigarette to ease the tension in his heart.

Suddenly, Chen Ye’s eyes widened in shock, as if he had seen something unbelievable.

Beside Chu Che’s bare foot, there was a black… scale?

This…

This is… a dragon scale!

He remembered now. The black dragon’s back was injured earlier, several scales looking like they were at risk of falling off at any moment.

It was probably after being blasted by that “lunatic’s” artillery.

That one scale fell off.

Holy crap…

And at this moment, Chu Che still wore a worried, frowning expression as he looked at the fighting crowd in the distance.

Clearly troubled over how to arrange for these people.

The pink-haired girl also walked over at this time, standing right beside Chu Che, her face also showing a troubled expression.

“Squad Leader Chu, what do we do? There are too many people!”

If the pink-haired girl took one more step forward, she would step right on that dragon scale.

Watching this, Chen Ye’s heart was in his throat.

Ding Dong also walked over, stopping her steps less than two meters from the dragon scale.

“Not enough vehicles. Iron Lion’s school bus can take maybe a dozen more people at most. My cargo container can also fit a few.”

“But it’s still not enough. We must find vehicles. We can’t have these people following the convoy on foot.”

Chen Ye pretended to be nonchalant, walked over with the cigarette in his mouth.

This was a dragon scale.

That dragon from earlier was clearly no ordinary creature.

Whether used for simulating Spirit Infusion or for upgrading Wonders, this dragon scale was a rare, precious item.

He absolutely had to get his hands on it, and couldn’t let others discover it.

Otherwise, it would have to be split five ways again.

Chen Ye wanted to monopolize this dragon scale.
