“YES SIR!”
The battle proceeded as the enemy ships landed at the shores. Hordes of ferocious Cryptonians
plummeted towards the rumbling sand as rage twirled and danced in the air surfing along the wind.
“Cryptonians, attack and conquer!” Captain Crypto ordered.
The city trembled with fear as the Cryptonians began to gain power of the battle. The Cryptonians
were very powerful, slashing and slicing through any obstacle it encountered. Emperor Yongle was in deep
trouble now, but he wasn’t ready to give up yet. A stampede cascaded into the kingdom, raiding the
valuables and searching for the gem.
“Gather the archers and bring death towards the enemy!” Zheng He announced.
An assortment of archers lined up horizontally across the top of the castle wall with burning arrows
aiming at the enemy.
“Fire!”
Zooming and lacerating the air, a trail of flames leaped towards the souls of the enemies.
The battle became extremely tense as the Cryptonians receded from the entreating searing arrows and
suddenly Captain Crypto took to the stage.
“It is I, the famous Captain Crypto. I have returned to take vengeance upon this city. I have
returned to take the powerful, immortal and desirable gem. Yongle, surrender while you can, or meet your
and the world’s annihilation. Hahaha!” the invincible giant blasted.
“NEVER!”
“Fine then, keep it like that,” Captain Crypto said. “Eradicate the kingdom. Now!” He commanded
the Cryptonians.
“Where is this stupid ge…?” Captain Crypto shouted, anxiously looking around him. Before he
could finish the sentence, the fearless Zheng He took aim at Captain Crypto’s heart, pulled his bow tautly
and let go of the arrow with a loud shout. The soaring arrow pierced Captain Crypto’s heart and he
slumped slowly onto the ground, clutching at the weapon impaled upon him.
“Hurray!” Emperor Yongle victoriously shouted, rushing towards Captain Crypto. “VICTORY is
ours!” roared Yongle’s army.
Seeing that their captain had been killed, the shattered Cryptonians scrambled towards their ship,
trying to escape from their conquerors. But the Emperor’s army was too fast for them, and in no time, the
Cryptonians were captured and put into the Kingdom’s prison.
Peace was once again restored in the kingdom. With the precious gem safely in its possession,
Emperor Yongle and the citizens of his kingdom enjoyed peace and prosperity for many years to come.
