Mobile City Farming Guide

Chapter 80 Now, we have all become the prey.

"Tang Fang, prepare to maneuver and evade!" Li Ye roared. "Ning Wen, fire smoke shells directly at the enemy!"

As the cannons on the deck of the Tomorrow opened fire one by one, several smoke shells were fired at the Kronos.

Once out of sight, the predatory city could only continue along its previous path.

Thanks to helmsman Tang Fang's maneuvering and evasion, the Tomorrow evaded its charge.

The Kronos thus narrowly missed the Tomorrow, leaving it completely unprepared.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, all the cannons on Tomorrow opened fire.

Even for a defensive city, the deck could hardly withstand the force of being hit at close range by four lava cannons. The deck of the Kronos was instantly damaged, with multiple sections catching fire and exploding.

The two frost cannons were aimed at the stern propeller of the Kronos. As they fell into the water and exploded, a large amount of ice was formed, freezing the stern of the Kronos along with the propeller, bringing this powerful defensive city to a standstill.

Just as Li Ye was about to expand his gains, three predatory cities that were advancing rapidly, along with dozens of speedboats, were already rushing towards him.

A dense barrage of fire from level 1 artillery, heavy machine guns, and rockets instantly enveloped the Tomorrow.

The Hades even has a level 2 machine gun.

The Tomorrow then accelerated and began maneuvering to evade, while activating its energy shield.

Urban energy is declining at an alarming rate again.

Inside the fuel tank, several ordinary residents were filling it with large amounts of coal to replenish their energy supply.

During this time, the Apollo spacecraft in the distance opened fire again.

Twenty-six ordinary cannons, plus six level 1 cannons, unleashed a devastating barrage that swept across Tomorrow once again.

The city's energy levels on Tomorrow are fluctuating wildly, sometimes dropping to 11% and sometimes rising back to 32%, which is quite alarming.

Having barely held out until the bombing ended, the Tomorrow had no time to catch its breath before the enemy's next offensive began.

That was none other than the Hades.

The predatory city accelerated straight ahead, heading straight for the Tomorrow.

As Tomorrow unleashed a barrage of firepower upon it, it activated its energy shield.

"I didn't expect this predatory city to also have an energy shield!" Li Ye's expression changed slightly.

In the split second before impact, Tomorrow maneuvered to avoid the Pluto. The latter, however, clearly wanted to close the distance and kept attempting to ram it.

For it, the destruction of the entire mobile city due to the collision is completely irrelevant. As long as it can destroy Tomorrow and render it incapable of maneuvering, its companions can swarm in like a pack of wolves and devour Tomorrow.

As for Tomorrow, it would be all over if it were hit.

At that very moment, the distant Kronos roared to life and started up again. This predatory city, with its massive icebreaker bow, had destroyed the ice at the stern and, having regained its power, charged menacingly towards the Tomorrow.

As the Hades reactivated its energy shield and attacked, Li Ye smirked coldly.

"Fire now!"

With a sharp roar, the steam ballista on the deck of the Tomorrow was activated, and the huge steam bolts instantly hit the Hades.

The gunpowder hidden inside the arrow was triggered, and the deck of the Hades instantly caught fire and exploded, the armor plates were blown off, and the shock wave spread outwards.

While the energy shield can withstand artillery shells, it cannot defend against steam-powered crossbows that are fired at close range and possess enormous kinetic energy!

The Hades quickly fired smoke shells to cover its own position, while the other two predatory cities and speedboats opened fire to provide cover, preventing the Tomorrow from expanding its gains.

At that very moment, both predatory cities launched torpedoes simultaneously.

Four torpedoes came from different tricky angles, and even though the Tomorrow tried to maneuver and evade, one torpedo still hit.

Even though the energy shield absorbed the impact of the explosion, the torpedo's own impact and inertia still caused damage and distortion to parts of the hull.

The three predatory cities were clearly aware of this, and they dispersed, launching torpedoes in succession.

The distance between the Kronos and the Tomorrow was less than 1 kilometer, and they were about to launch an attack.

The situation has become extremely precarious.

A hint of melancholy crept into Li Ye's eyes. He had already foreseen the fate of the Tomorrow.

Its hull will be damaged by continuous torpedo attacks, eventually losing its maneuverability.

Unable to maneuver and evade, the enemy artillery was able to carry out precise, targeted bombardment, eventually depleting the city's energy resources.

The enemy will then destroy the cannons and heavy machine guns on the deck one by one, and then begin to board the Tomorrow's deck.

Tomorrow will bleed to its last drop as it runs out of ammunition and supplies.

"boom!"

Li Ye, unwilling to accept defeat, slammed his fist against the wall.

If Tomorrow had even one or two allies, the situation wouldn't have become so unfavorable.

Just then, something unexpected happened.

Countless sharp cannon shots rang out in the distance, and the Apollo spacecraft, located at the rear, was engulfed in a barrage of explosions.

Before the Kronos, which was preparing to charge, could react, a shell that came from afar expanded and extended in mid-air, turning into a huge sludge that trapped it.

The sudden change left everyone on Mount Olympus stunned.

Li Ye reacted instantly.

"That's it!"

Suddenly, a huge figure appeared in the distance.

That was none other than the Lone Sail, a Level 2 mobile city that the Tomorrow had encountered in the giant forest!
For this level 2 predator city that has just arrived on the battlefield.

The current situation is very clear.

The Tomorrow is about to collapse, the Olympus Alliance is about to succeed, and it has suffered very little damage.

This outcome was clearly unacceptable to the Lone Sail. With the entire Olympus Alliance intact, even if it were to join the battle now, it would be unable to reap the rewards.

Therefore, it decided to prioritize targeting the Olympus League.

One Tomorrow alone cannot satisfy the appetite of this Level 2 predatory city.

It wants everything.

“None of these city-devouring lords are easy to deal with,” Li Ye remarked. “Now, we have all become its prey.”

The Apollo spacecraft, caught off guard by a sudden bombing, came to a complete standstill.

As a Tier 2 city, the Lone Sail's bombardment was far more intense than they had imagined.

It has a total of 16 Tier 1 cannons.

Although the Apollo was not sunk, its situation was not much better; multiple fires and explosions had broken out on its deck, and it was in grave danger.

The Olympus League's long-range heavy firepower support was largely crippled.

The Vulcan, which was on standby, immediately moved forward and began emergency rescue operations for the Apollo.

As a fully equipped Level 1 engineer-type city, it is equipped with cranes, robotic arms, and working claws.

All the robotic arms started up and deployed at the same time, revealing emergency rescue machinery such as welding guns and rivet guns mounted inside.

The elevator platform aligned with the Apollo deck, and the Vulcan crew, dressed in protective suits, disembarked to fight the fire.

The robotic arm, equipped with a giant fire-fighting device, began drawing water from a pipe on the other side, connected to a water tower, to extinguish the fire. High-pressure steam clouds then sprayed out from the fire-fighting device, and the working claws sequentially drove dozens of emergency support legs into the shaky city pillars, forcing them to stabilize.

Spider-like repair robots landed on the Apollo's deck, crawling along hot steel beams to forcibly repair critical nodes—undoubtedly a Level 2 item possessed by the Vulcan.

With a roar, the second robotic arm of the Vulcan started up, and a steam hose five or six meters thick was erected between the two predatory cities, thus allowing the Vulcan to continuously supply its power to the Apollo spacecraft.

Extinguishing the fire, cleaning the deck, treating the wounded, and repairing deck equipment—thanks to the orderly cooperation of the Vulcan crew, the Apollo actually began to recover.
