Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies

Zhang Yi stared intently at Kami-musubi-no-Kami’s every move. The opponent’s behavior was somewhat bizarre, so Zhang Yi didn’t dare act rashly.

After all, given the current situation, defeating Kami-musubi-no-Kami with an ability index of 25,000 points was no simple task.

Kami-musubi-no-Kami murmured softly, bidding farewell to the Three Great Ghost Kings.

Then, suddenly, he opened his mouth and sucked in a deep breath.

”Whoosh—”

With his action, a terrifying storm erupted, and fierce winds howled across the sky.

The Three Great Ghost Kings made no move at all, yet they were swept up by this gale and flew straight toward Kami-musubi-no-Kami.

What happened next made Zhang Yi’s expression turn grim.

Because the Three Great Ghost Kings, including the colossal Canine God’s massive body, were all swallowed into Kami-musubi-no-Kami’s mouth!

”Absorbing the energy of the Three Great Ghost Kings to strengthen himself?”

”This just got a lot harder. This guy in front of me is even more troublesome than before!”

Once the absorption of the Three Great Ghost Kings was complete, Kami-musubi-no-Kami, who had originally had an ability index of only 25,000 points, experienced another explosive surge in power!

His frail body suddenly swelled up. Where he had once been only the size of an ordinary human, his form now stretched out over a dozen meters.

”Rip—”

His black robes were torn apart, revealing his true appearance.

A gray body covered in fine, dense fur, thick limbs, a long slender gray tail, and a narrow, elongated head.

Kami-musubi-no-Kami’s true form was actually that of a rodent-like creature!

”Thirty seconds!”

He raised three fingers toward Zhang Yi. ”I’ll kill you in thirty seconds!”

Zhang Yi felt a massive crisis bearing down on him, but he didn’t panic.

”If you want to kill me, then come and try!”

Kami-musubi-no-Kami raised his scepter, swinging it like a teacher’s pointer as he struck downward with a fierce blow!

A terrifying energy shot down like an arrow, heading straight for Zhang Yi’s Dimensional Gate!

Zhang Yi’s pupils contracted sharply. Through [Tracking of All Things], he actually saw a vision of the Dimensional Gate being shattered!

Without a moment’s hesitation, he swung the Sword in the Tree in his hand, sending countless trees surging toward the high heavens!

”Rumble!”

After being infused with a massive amount of supernatural power, the Sword in the Tree’s growth speed and scale were utterly terrifying. In an instant, tens of thousands of vines, each five to six meters thick, twisted and coiled together, forming an incredibly complex shield in front of Zhang Yi!

The black arrow shot down. The tough wooden shield couldn’t hold for even a single second before the black arrow pierced through it like splitting bamboo!

The terrifying force hurtled toward the Dimensional Gate, instantly penetrating over a dozen layers of gates!

Zhang Yi finally felt the horror of another civilization’s power from Kami-musubi-no-Kami.

At this moment, his strength had at least reached the level of that Nash Kingdom prince from back then.

”This really is getting troublesome now.”

Zhang Yi murmured to himself.

Kami-musubi-no-Kami stood in midair like a deity, condensing another black arrow in his palm.

”If not for my wariness of that unknown power, you would have died long ago!”

”Don’t get too cocky, brat!”

He glared at Zhang Yi, this strike meant to completely shatter his defenses!

But just then, a beam of light shot in from a distant direction, instantly piercing through the night and slamming hard into Kami-musubi-no-Kami’s head!

His spellcasting was forcibly interrupted, and his body was even blasted hundreds of meters to the side.

Kami-musubi-no-Kami was stunned. Even Zhang Yi hadn’t expected reinforcements to arrive at this moment.

They both looked into the distance, and saw a man clad entirely in black armor standing atop an iron tower at an extremely faraway location, wielding a massive black sniper rifle aimed this way.

The Piercer, Yasin Canero.

Zhang Yi raised an eyebrow. He hadn’t expected Canero to lend a hand at a time like this.

It was already a blessing that Canero hadn’t attacked him.

In the communication channel, Canero’s voice came through.

”Colombia cannot tolerate something this terrifying existing in Neon!”

Zhang Yi immediately understood his reasoning.

The Neon Archipelago was, after all, territory controlled by the Colombian navy.

The strength Kami-musubi-no-Kami was displaying now had seriously threatened their rule, so of course Canero wouldn’t accept this.

It was better to cooperate with Zhang Yi and find a way to take this guy down.

That would be good for both sides.

In this world, there were no eternal enemies or friends, only eternal interests.

Behind the black sniper rifle, Canero frowned. Although his shot had damaged Kami-musubi-no-Kami, his heart was far from relaxed.

His ability, [Piercing of All Things], could ignore most of the opponent’s defenses and deal true damage.

That was why he could harm Kami-musubi-no-Kami, whose ability index was tens of thousands of points higher than his.

But the prerequisite was that Zhang Yi was drawing most of Kami-musubi-no-Kami’s attention.

Opportunities for sneak attacks like that wouldn’t last forever, though.

”Chaos, all I can do for you is provide long-range deterrence. If you can’t hold out, I’ll run away immediately!”

Canero said very cautiously.

Zhang Yi laughed.

The fact that Canero was willing to help had already added a not-insignificant weight to the scales of victory.

Although it couldn’t turn the tide of battle, it could at least give Zhang Yi one more condition for victory.

But no matter how he looked at it, Canero holding that massive sniper rifle aiming looked just like Zhang Yi the assassin back on Star Island.

”Vermin!”

Kami-musubi-no-Kami glared furiously at Canero, but the next moment, an eternal, undying dark star gathered at Zhang Yi’s fingertip.

”Star-Piercing Cannon! Here it comes!”

Kami-musubi-no-Kami was forced to shift his gaze, focusing most of his attention back on Zhang Yi.

The threat Canero posed to him was, of course, not as great as Zhang Yi’s.

But that opponent’s ability to ignore defenses with ultra-long-range sniper shots would still deal some damage to him.

So now, he had to split his attention in two places, guarding against Canero while fighting Zhang Yi at the same time.

”Whoosh!”

In an instant, Kami-musubi-no-Kami launched another attack. A black magatama on his scepter suddenly expanded, forming a massive flying star behind him.

The flying star spun at high speed, stirring up the clouds in the sky until they surged wildly.

”Heavenly Loom Dark Star!”

That massive black magatama transformed into a bloody, eerie eye in the sky. A surging torrent of power poured down, wrapping the space where Zhang Yi stood in a rain-like curtain!

This strike completely sealed off Zhang Yi’s ability to use [Spatial Shifting], because the moment he emerged from the Dimensional Gate, he would be attacked.

Then, the massive flying star descended directly toward Zhang Yi!

At this rate of attack, it would only take about a dozen more strikes for Zhang Yi’s Dimensional Gate to be completely shattered!

When that happened, he would have no means left to counter Kami-musubi-no-Kami’s attacks!
