The urban warfare in the city of Amiens was still continuing. The German and French armies were engaged in a fierce struggle within the city. Several hours of fighting had already cost the German army about 500 soldiers, yet they were still unable to completely occupy Amiens.

The locomotive, emitting white smoke, steadily moved away, accelerating after leaving Qingzhou Station. The common people, seeing this, rushed to follow the steam locomotive. In their mundane lives lacking entertainment, they didn't want to miss this wondrous event. At least now, they had more to talk about after meals. After the locomotive's speed increased, Fei Ji's old face flushed. He said, "I really should slap myself. At this rate, the steam locomotive's speed can at least keep up with…

"Woo woo..." The whistle of the steam locomotive sounded at Qingzhou Station.

The brand-new percussion cap gun gleamed with a metallic sheen. Song Changping was excited. The barbarians, like a sharp sword, threatened the Great Yu Empire. Generations of blood debts were etched in everyone's hearts, wishing to destroy them overnight. "Your Majesty's ambition is grand. The name 'Conqueror' will surely be a prominent entry in the history books," Song Changping said, bowing. Xiao Ming gently stroked the body of the Conqueror Musket, feeling the cold metallic texture. He returned…

He deliberately held back his attack while the monster was climbing because he was afraid that striking it would knock it back into the water, resulting in the loss of a Spiritual Source. He preferred to let the monster climb onto the roof before striking. The Advanced Corpse Beast's hardened right leg lashed out like a whip, kicking at the machete Su Li was bringing down. The machete struck the limb, sparking, but it failed to penetrate the Advanced Corpse Beast's hard shell. "That's…

Ding Longyun acknowledged with a sound. "It looks like we really need to prepare to leave this place." Leaving the Corpse Ship, the four returned to the building. Ding Longyun and the others questioned Su Li about the Nightmare Beast's death. Su Li didn't hide anything and told them about the Corpse Mother hidden deep underwater. Of course, he didn't mention the Spirit of Talent or his awakened talent, 'Enhancement Favor,' as everyone has a small secret they don't want to reveal publicly. "So the…

This time, he finally heard it clearly. It was indeed a human voice, and it was crying out, "Help!" Not only him, but Gong Xiao and Ding Longyun also heard it. "Huh? Someone's calling for help? There's a person on this Corpse Ship." Ding Longyun's curiosity was piqued. Ignoring the disgusting stench of the Corpse Ship, he jumped aboard too. The center of the Corpse Ship had sunken in, forming a large fissure. The weak cry for help was coming from this huge crack. When Su Li peered inside, he…

Su Li shouted loudly, and soon, a faint voice echoed back. Su Li listened closely. The voice was calling his name. "Haha—" Su Li recognized Ding Longyun's voice and felt excited. He was on the 31st floor and immediately rushed toward the direction of the sound. He quickly realized the voice was coming from the water. From the 31st floor balcony, he saw the kayak and the two people on it, Gong Xiao and Xu Xuehui. They were waving excitedly, but he didn't see Ding Longyun. "Su Li!" Ding…

"Xuehui repeatedly mentioned that this treasure was very precious and that we absolutely must get it. The 'Peering Rune' also says it's a mysterious treasure. Since it's called a treasure, the item inside the Corpse Mother must be extremely valuable, far more than just a special ability like 'Gluttony Fangs' or 'Soul Devour.'" Su Li gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind. He violently pushed off with his feet, diving at full speed toward the bottom, closing in on the root stalk. He wanted to…
