Luo En did not let the sudden attack and his rage get the better of him. He said calmly in a loud voice, “Everyone! Get into the mobile city! Prepare for battle!”

Upon receiving the order, everyone hurriedly ran into the mobile city.

At this moment, the Black Dragon Mobile City was also slowly approaching Luo En.

Luo En arrived at the command room and looked at Black Dragon Mobile City on the screen in front of him. He picked up the walkie-talkie and asked, “Why did you attack us for no reason? I don’t have any feuds with Black Dragon Mobile City, right?”

Hei Long on the other side had also picked up the walkie-talkie in his command room. He laughed as he replied, “Indeed, I don’t have any feuds with you, but isn’t this a world where the strong prey on the weak? Moreover, there are lots of ore resources here! Hahahaha!”

Luo En was skeptical. Reasonably speaking, this was indeed a world where the strong preyed on the weak. However, that applied only to the strong toward the weak. Both of them were small mobile cities; even if there was a difference in strength, the gap was not too large. It would not be possible to exterminate a mobile city which was equal in level.

If an enemy could not be completely destroyed, then endless revenge would come knocking on one’s door, so in this world, there were very few fights between mobile cities of equal level.

Luo En really could not understand how Black Dragon Mobile City could have the confidence to destroy him.

“Hmph! Since you want to fight, then let’s fight!”

“Gunners! Fire!” Luo En said coldly.

As the gears turned, shells were loaded into the cannons one after another. Then, with a boom, the shells flew and streaked across the air towards Black Dragon Mobile City.

Watching the sight, Hei Long was not to be outdone. He shouted, “Gunners! Fire!”

There were a few more explosions. On the side of Black Dragon Mobile City, the shells were also fired simultaneously, hitting Luo En’s shells in the air.

Explosions rang out incessantly as black mushroom clouds rose in the sky.

Black Dragon Mobile City had five more cannons than Luo En’s mobile city. Even though Luo En had upgraded the cannons in the city, this was still insufficient. Three shells from the Black Dragon Mobile City were coming fast at Luo En’s mobile city.

“Fire again! Hurry!” Wang Yu ordered in panic as he saw three shells flying fast toward them from outside the city.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

Three shells were fired and collided with the shells that were fast approaching the mobile city.

Six shells exploded in the air five hundred meters away from the Luo Yang Mobile City. Everyone in the mobile city was afflicted by the explosion. Some people fell to the ground wailing in pain from the blast, holding their heads while others were deafened by the shock. Shouts and cries for help filled every corner of the city.

The shell fragments from the explosion shot out and hit the buildings in the rest area of the Luo Yang Mobile City. A large number of buildings were destroyed by the powerful impacts from the shell fragments. Fortunately, there were no casualties in the city.

In the command room, Luo En clearly saw the situation in the city, but he did not show any signs of panic. He picked up the walkie-talkie and said, “All residents! Take refuge in the emergency shelter!”

The area was surrounded by mountains on three sides and the space was relatively narrow compared to the mobile city. The only exit had been blocked by the Black Dragon Mobile City. The people on Luo En’s side saw the shells coming at them, but even if they wanted to hide, they could not; they could only resist.

“Wang Yu! Continue with the attacks! Increase the rate!” Luo En said coldly.

Upon hearing, Wang Yu replied in shock, “City Lord! There’s no need to increase the rate, right? Even if we can’t defeat them, it won’t be so easy for them to defeat us in a short period of time. Increasing the rate will cause serious damage to our cannons and gunners!”

A ray of wisdom flashed across Luo En’s eyes, and he said coldly, “I told you to give the order! Don’t ask so many questions!”

“Yes, City Lord!” Wang Yu had no choice but to choose to trust his City Lord. Promptly, he ordered the gunners to increase the firing rate.

After Luo En had finished speaking, his eyes kept searching for Wang Yun’s figure on the screen before him. However, after a long while, he still could not find Wang Yun.

“What the hell is this Wang Yun… up to…” Luo En muttered as he stared at the screen before him.

He did not know that at this time, Wang Yun, who was clutching a small glowing ball tightly in his hand, was sneaking towards the control room.

When there was surveillance in the area, the ball in Wang Yun’s hand would emit a white light which would cloak Wang Yun and shield him from the surveillance detection.

After Luo En had given the order, the gunners quickly took aim and fired. They reloaded, aimed, and fired without stopping even for a moment. Because there were more cannons in Black Dragon Mobile City than in Luo Yang Mobile City, the latter could only load and fire at a rapid rate to make up for the difference in numbers, in order to fight on an even level.

At this moment, on the side of Black Dragon Mobile City, a group of people had gathered together to discuss the situation on the field.

“City Lord! Why are there suddenly more shells from the other side? Could it be that they still have a few cannons hidden away? Beware of deception, City Lord!” Someone asked, perplexed.

“That’s right, City Lord! Beware!” Another person echoed.

Upon hearing, Hei Long observed carefully. When he realized that only the firing rate had increased in Luo Yang Mobile City, he laughed immediately and said, “No! The number of their cannons has not increased, but it is their attack rate which has increased!”

“Oh? Wouldn’t they be driving themselves to a dead end faster by doing this? Would that City Lord be so foolish?” Everyone could not help but ask in bewilderment.

One should know that the lifespan of each cannon was limited. Firing rapidly like what was happening at Luo En’s side would quickly shorten the lifespans of the cannons. Not only that, such rapid firing would use up much more resources.

Also, with the increase in the firing rate, the mental pressure and strain on the physical strength of each gunner would be greater. Although on the surface, increasing the firing rate would effectively increase the might of the mobile city, this would only be short lived. After each attempt, the damage to the mobile city would be great, and the damage to the cannons would be irreversible.

Hence, unless there was a life-and-death crisis, no one would choose to do so.

However, it was clear that Luo Yan Mobile City was unlikely not likely to be defeated in a short time, so why did they still choose a self-harming mode of attack? Moreover, even with such a self-harming mode of attack, it would be unlikely to defeat the Black Dragon Mobile City in a short period of time.

However, no matter what the reasons were, such an action from Luo Yang Mobile City was even better for Hei Long and his men.

Hei Long immediately laughed and ordered, “How stupid! Since they want to play, we’ll play with them! We’ll also increase our rate of firing!”

“Yes, City Lord!”

So, the gunners on Hei Long’s side also increased the firing rate. Immediately, the situation which had just been salvaged on Luo En’s side, fell into a disadvantage once again. However, it was still not possible to determine, in a short time, who would win.

The two sides were in a deadlock, but it was obvious that Luo En’s side was being suppressed and was under greater strain..

“City Lord! We are running out of ammunition! What should we do!” At this moment, Wang Yu rushed into the command room and came to Luo En’s side saying anxiously.

Luo En was lying in his chair; he rubbed his chin and pondered for a while before saying, “Continue fighting! Fight until we run out of ammunition!”

“B-but!”

“There are no buts, just carry out the order!” Before Wang Yu could continue to say anything, Luo En raised his hand and interrupted him.

“Yes!” Wang Yu replied respectfully before quickly taking his leave.

“We’re running out of ammunition… It’s the same on your end, isn’t it…” Luo En muttered to himself after Wang Yu left, as he lay in his chair and looked at the deadlocked situation.

Indeed, Luo En was right.

At this moment, on Hei Long’s side, a man came forward and reported, “City Lord! We are running out of ammunition!”

Hearing this, Hei Long was shocked. “So fast! Slow down the firing rate!”

Upon hearing this, the man stammered, “This… City Lord, this… this won’t do. Luo Yang Mobile City’s firing rate is still the same as before. If we slow down, they will gain an advantage!”

No! Impossible! How can a tiny Luo Yang Mobile City have so much ammunition to support it? They probably want to give it their all so that they can scare us off… Why isn’t this Wang Yun taking action yet… Hei Long thought.

Then, he said decisively, “Continue firing!”

“Yes, City Lord!”
