Chapter 1201: Chapter 901, What Were You Just Singing?_3 Chapter 1201: Chapter 901, What Were You Just Singing?_3 From the intercom, Philippa’s voice came through, “Um… Leader Wu Heng, the ship’s cannon is already aimed. Should we give them a shot first?”

The escort ship was mainly equipped with two weapons.

One was a 127mm naval cannon, and the other was a close-in air defense cannon.

The 127mm naval cannon had a range of ten thousand meters, more than sufficient for the current distance, even a bit too close.

Wu Heng glanced at the cannon barrel that was already set and applied a [Summon Arrow Rain].

As they got closer, the members of the association also grew increasingly tense and solemn.

“Having reached here, we will not retreat; let this scrap metal witness our willpower.”

The Dwarf Elder shouted aloud to boost the morale of all the members.

“That deep cavern has forged our hope.”

“Hammers wielded, sparks fly, determination in our gaze.”

“Now the trumpet of battle sounds, courage burning hot in our chests.”

Then came the battle anthem of the Hunters, and the whole ship, including members of the Hongwen Alliance, began to sing along.

Echoing through the broken canyon.

After casting the spell, Wu Heng, not bothering with the members ready for battle, pressed the intercom, “Philippa, make sure to aim precisely.”

“Understood.”

Bang~!

With a deafening boom, the singing was instantly drowned out.

A shell shot out from the cannon muzzle, and under the effect of ‘Summon Arrow Rain,’ it dispersed quickly into numerous shells like a blast of shrapnel.

Before anyone could react to what had happened.

Boom~!

The next second, the distant fortress exploded as if it had burst open, engulfed by flames and explosions, with thick smoke surging into the sky.

The stone mountains on both sides began to shake violently.

Stones tumbled down with a clattering sound, kicking up spray, and the escort ship swayed slightly.

The song on the ship ceased, and everyone prepared for battle stared wide-eyed in horror at the scene ahead.

What just happened?

An entire fortress just vanished like that?

Then… what was the point of all the preparations we made earlier?

The Dwarf Elder patted his slightly ringing ears and walked over, asking with a dubious tone, “Leader, was that us?”

“Yes, to prevent any casualties,” Wu Heng replied.

Not just reduce casualties.

The other side got razed to the ground.

The Elf Elder glanced at the area still covered by thick smoke, raising an eyebrow.

After being turned into this, what is left to explore in the ancient site?

Philippa’s voice came over the intercom, “Why were you singing just now?”

Wu Heng and the Elf Elder both looked at the Dwarf Elder, who cleared his throat and pressed the intercom, “Just for fun.”

“Oh!”

…

Inside the distant fortress.

Xiao Xiao and Bella floated in the grand hall inside.

Staring at the figure ahead, the level light beam continued to appear rhythmically, then vanish.

The sound of the explosion was heard, and dense gravel, like bullets, shot into the building, crackling against the seated stone body.

The withered body, unbalanced by the gravel’s impact, toppled to the side and fell to the ground.

Xiao Xiao looked at Bella, pointing at the body, indicating that it wouldn’t be killed by rocks, would it?

Bella shook her head, suggesting if it were to die, it would have already been dead; it wouldn’t be killed by rocks.

While the two ghosts were communicating with sign language.

Suddenly, they saw the fallen body, and the level light beam did not disappear.

It shakily stood up.

A crack opened on the top of the head, and a fleshy, plump body emerged from within, like shedding skin.

Transformed into the form of a black-haired middle-aged man.

The level light beam rose again, reaching level 19.

Then, the man abruptly turned his head, a crack splitting open on his forehead to reveal an eye, staring at the invisible ghosts.
