Chapter 799: Chapter 534, The Restless Wang Zuo_1
She stared at the angry man outside.
Li Rong’s brows furrowed again.
This man must be insane. How on earth is he still alive?
It’s a miracle that he hasn’t been eliminated despite the frequent eliminations.
The man glanced at the message from the Book of Lords and shouted, “Li Rong, come out now, I promise not to kill you and I’ll treat you well. But if you don’t…”
Before he finished speaking, a voice from within the house retorted, “Go screw yourself!”
Veins on the man’s forehead popped out in anger, and he ordered coldly, “Since they refuse to come out, set the house on fire. Let’s see if they’d rather be burned alive or killed by us.”
Charging in directly would inevitably lead to substantial losses.
The dry weather, coupled with the wooden house, was perfect for setting a fire.

His soldiers quickly went to find dried grass and torches.
The plan was to set the wooden house on fire, forcing Li Rong and her group out, making them far easier to kill.
Seeing the people outside preparing for action,
The people inside the wooden house were even more apprehensive.
“My lord, let’s break out. We’ll protect you even if it costs us our lives,” the soldiers said.
Li Rong had brought fifty heavy sword infantry along with her.
This wasn’t arrogance but the result of Silver Wing City’s safe surroundings.
There were no bandits or outlaws around, and occasional wild beasts were too afraid to approach a fifty-man crew.
Who would have thought that a transmigrator would attack her?
Despite her crew all being Tier Five, fifty against three hundred still didn’t give her a high chance of victory.
It wasn’t just about whether she could escape. The soldiers she brought were doomed.
Seeing people already bringing torches, Li Rong said, “I’ll check the situation first. You all get ready to break out.”
If there was no other way, she could only choose to break out.
Opening the Book of Lords, she was about to fill Fang Hao in on the situation.
That’s when she saw Fang Hao was selling cannons in the territory channel.
Such things were never sold externally in the past.
Seeing the price of fifty thousand for a cannon and separate charges for shells, Li Rong felt a stab in her heart.
But looking at the people outside, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and buy them.
“I’ll buy them. Send me the money and fifty rifles,” she said.
Someday, she would get her savings back from Fang Hao.
Soon enough,
A cannon appeared in the center of the wooden house, along with six boxes of shells, fifty rifles, and a wooden crate full of ammunition.
Li Rong was overjoyed.
She urged them in a low voice, “Quick, grab the rifles and prepare to open fire.”
Afterward, she instructed everyone on how to use the rifles.
Li Rong had borrowed a rifle from Fang Hao before and knew how to operate it. However, her aim wasn’t great — she merely pulled the trigger in the direction of people.
After instructing them on the rifles, she had two people start familiarizing themselves with the large cannon in the middle.
There was a rapid approach of footsteps from outside, and the enemy troops were getting closer, holding torches.
Just then, the window was pushed open.
Several rifles poked out, pointing directly across the distance.
The man who was previously waiting arms crossed, his face turned pale as he saw the barrels of the guns.
“What the…”
Before he could finish, the gunfire rang out.
Bang bang bang bang!!
Bullets flew out, hitting the soldiers holding torches, who dropped their torches and fell.
The bullet barrage knocked down a large number of enemies, causing chaos.
The transmigrator man screamed in terror, “Charge, kill them, rush in there! There’s only so many guns they can stick out the window. Charge!”
There was no time to care about the wounded at this point.
Speeding up the attack was the important thing.
As for running away,
There were so many of them. Why should they run? Besides, could they outrun bullets?
Prodded by the man, the soldiers charged towards the wooden house, trying to avoid the windows and started to charge.
Charge!!
The men rushed forward. Yet, the few guns protruding from the window could not show much firepower.
Just when the man felt they were about to invade the wooden house,
The tightly shut door slowly started to open.
“Raid? Ha, you’re too late! So many of my men died; you all will pay the price,” the man roared.
But when the wooden door opened,
The man’s forehead was covered in cold sweat.
A cannon!
The bursting cannon pointed at the enemy who was flocking and trying to barge in.
Before he could say anything, a loud boom resonated.
Boom—Bang!
The shock wave swept over everyone, and the flying debris hit everyone like bullets.
Due to the close proximity, even the wooden house was affected.
It seemed as if it had been devastated, torn apart by the flying debris.
Li Rong dragged herself from the ruins, with a ringing noise in her ears and blurred vision.
She forced herself to quickly recover by knocking her head.
Feeling someone helping her, she managed to stand up, swaying slightly.
When her vision cleared,
She found that the wooden house had become a ruin, and a huge crater had been created in the open area outside of the house.
All around were rocks and bits of scattered flesh.
The power of the cannon was too great.
If not for the wooden house to block some impact, they would have been seriously injured.
Then, she heard sounds coming from not far away.
Turning her head, she saw the man with a few survivors, attempting to escape.
“Catch him!” Li Rong yelled.
“Yes, sir!”
The soldiers hoisted their rifles and chased after him, firing as they went.
