readx;? She opened her eyes. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

What the eye can see is a pale green world -- that's the color of the nutrient solution.

The body can barely move, which is the inevitable sequelae of separating the spirit from the **: in a sense, this practice is actually suicide. And the recombination of the separated spirit and ** is equivalent to resurrection. No matter what the world is, the resurrection is not a simple matter, and it always comes at a great cost.

Not to mention the fact that there are worlds that do not allow such a thing as "resurrection" at all.

As a result, she would be weakened for a long time, both physically and magically - in ancient times, that meant permanent damage. Of course, even in modern times, the development of various related technologies has reached a peak, which means that the risk is quite high, at least the least, and it has to be soaked in the nutrient solution for a long time.

An electronic sound came from the supervising computer.

"Rest assured, your body hasn't fully recovered...... Don't act ...... yet"

An endless sense of weakness came rushing in, like an endless wave, and she was the little leaf in the wave, which could only float to and fro in the wind.

But even so, she could still trust her feelings. The feeling that came from her spirit and soul could not go wrong.

Why? The timing is not right, not at all...... She hadn't even recovered from her weakness now. Impossible...... Something must have happened! What did I get wrong?

Nobody likes accidents, and every warlock has heard the saying that if there are three accidents, two of them you don't want to see, and the other one you don't want to see.

A wave of remorse flooded through the depths of my mind. Why did she make that decision in the first place? Now, she is likely to pay the price of her impulses—too heavy to be saved.

Another feeling of weakness came over us. That's the fixed program of the intelligent system at work - the mechanical stuff is always so rigid, meticulous, and everything works according to the pre-set. They don't know how to improvise, and they don't know how to have more important things. After determining her status, the damn machine was injecting an anesthetic into the nutrient solution in an attempt to force her to sleep.

Damn, there's ...... She's going to have to lie in this place for a few months......

An irresistible drowsiness mingled with a feeling of weakness, forcing her consciousness to sink into darkness once more.

……

It is a floating terrace, so described because it has no real connection to the building next to it. They were tens of centimeters apart -- exactly the distance an average adult would take a step away.

In the middle of the terrace there was a table - a large round table. Eight chairs are arranged in all directions of the table, and directly in front of each chair is a small flat plate embedded in the tabletop, the metal one. And above this metal slab, there is a virtual 3D projection that is changing.

Eight people each occupied a table, one of them was speaking, and the others were watching and listening attentively.

However, this "seeing" is indeed observing the 3D projection with the naked eye, and this "hearing" is not using the eardrum to receive air vibrations. Some kind of powerful supernatural force that roughly connects the spirits of all people, and they can communicate with each other in a spiritual way.

The advantages of this approach are obvious, that you will never miss an overhear, let alone mishear, that you will be able to understand with 100% accuracy what someone is saying, and that you will never be overheard.

“…… In total, we lost hundreds of thousands of troops, and more than twenty floating fortresses were shot down, at least half of which have been confirmed to be of no repair value. And this loss," the speaker stressed. "It's nothing compared to the Stygian Moon. So far, we have confirmed that at least nine Warlock legions have been crippled, six Floating Fortresses have been destroyed, and mortal soldiers have lost countless numbers. And the war continues...... There is not even the slightest sign of an end in sight. According to a secret piece of information that is not very sure, the Stygian camp has mobilized a new round of troops, and it is likely that more than fifty legions will be committed to the Banshee Gate, only a small number of which are made up of mortals. According to the information we have observed, the intensity of the war is no longer suitable for the legions composed of mortals. ”

If the last time what happened at the Banshee Gate was just a trivial issue in a meeting, now it's all there is to it. Because what happened there, if not the last, is unprecedented.

Banshee's Gate, a remote, backward, materially lacking in valuable resources, geographically not a critical location, and completely sparsely populated, is insignificant to the whole world, in short, it belongs entirely to the kind of place where there is no more and no less. But now, it is such an inconspicuous place, and now it has attracted the attention of the whole world.

Because there's a war going on here, a war that's completely different from the Warlocks' civil war.

To put it simply, the guys in the Stygian camp have messed up. They brought some ambitious otherworldly creatures into the world as mercenaries, and then ...... The two sides clashed, and a favorite dog-eat-dog plot occurred.

Logically, this is not an unreasonable thing: as happens in any world, employers are likely to use various excuses to get rid of their mercenary money, and mercenaries will demand more out of greed...... Not to mention that these are mercenaries summoned from other worlds, and even biological races are different. To say that there is a conflict or something, it is really very reasonable.

But this time, the mercenaries from the Stygian camp ...... It's a little too strong. Maybe they're just trying to pay their bills, but they're kicking the iron plate.

"What about their other floating fortresses?"

"The guys in Stygian are doing a better job than we do. The number of floating fortresses they had deployed at the Banshee's Gate was limited, and they were all shot down. The rest are all away from there. This is the only part of our event that we have lost more than the Stygian Moon. ”

Someone said it in a gloating tone. The Floating Fortress is a valuable combat power, but it is definitely not so valuable as to surpass the Warlock Legion. The Stygian faction has already lost nine legions at the Banshee Gate, and there will be many more in the future, which sounds really pleasant. There is no more enemy cannibalism than to be more happy.

The most important thing is that the time for equilibrium has begun. This means that this good news will also have a long-term advantage: the chances of the birth of Warlocks will be greatly reduced, and if too many Warlocks are lost at this time, then the number of Warlocks in the next stage will be significantly reduced, and it may even mean a shortage of human resources.

This will undoubtedly affect the entire war.

"It has been ascertained that the Stygian Warlocks are fighting evil monsters born of some kind of experiment. We don't know anything about this force from an unknown world at the moment, the only thing we know is that it's very powerful. And why did it break the employment agreement and turn around and take a bite...... I don't know anything either. In fact, we know nothing about this force other than its name, or the name of their leader, which is called Kecha Goat. The Warlocks of the Stygian have hidden everything very well, so good that even now, the information we get is still very limited......"

And the limited amount of information pointed out that this otherworldly force may hold many mysteries, so much so that the warlocks of the Stygian Moon, even when it has reached the moment of equilibrium, are willing to take huge risks and desperately want to destroy it. Based on this, I think ...... We can't miss this opportunity, we have to do something. ”

"The question now is ...... What can we do now?" someone interjected.

"Just watch, isn't it?" someone replied.

"Or rather, we can't do anything. An old, heavy voice said. "It is already known that this mysterious force has the power to easily destroy the Floating Fortress. And mortal soldiers, not so much cannon fodder, in turn, increase the strength of the other side. ”

"With the Warlock Legion?"

"Don't kid yourself. This could be a trap for the Stygians! Even if we weren't, we wouldn't have time to muster more troops...... And worst of all, because of the moment of equilibrium, our front line has been backing and disengaged. If you want to gather forces to attack now...... It's going to take a long time, and most importantly, we haven't prepared for it in any way. ”

War is never something that can be started as soon as the brain is hot. If so, it would be a primitive society. In fact, as early as the era of cold weapons, the Chinese on the earth plane put forward the concept of "soldiers and horses have not moved, grain and grass first", which is a very vivid interpretation of this point.

"Here," another voice rang out in the Psychic Link Network, which had been silent until now. "I'll give you an unconfirmed piece of information, do you know about 'devouring'? It is said that 'devouring' is from Kecha Goat. It has...... It seems to possess immense power and mysteries, knowledge beyond our reach!"

"What!" the announcement immediately sent a shock.

Many people know this open secret. The Warlocks of the Stygian Moon have recently developed a spell called Devouring. This is a mysterious magic of unknown origin that can be used by any warlock. The principle is unknown, but the effect is terrifying: this magic allows one warlock to absorb part of the power of another warlock, and only the latter needs to die. It completely shatters the notion that warlocks are innate with power. In the old belief, the skill of a warlock needs to be cultivated, but the strength is innate. But now, theoretically, any warlock can get stronger and stronger by killing, even beyond everyone's imagination.

At the moment, this magic is not yet widespread, and may even be being tested on a very small scale. But anyone can guess that it will have far-reaching effects, even enough to change the balance of power.

"That's what I'm worried about, and it explains why they're desperate to send more troops there! This knowledge has the power to change the tide of battle! If Kecha Goyat had more......"

"So, let's make a decision, first of all, we need more investigation and engagement. I'd like to make the following suggestions for your consideration: first, we need to understand why the Floating Fortress was easily shot down, and secondly, we need to capture the grassroots soldiers of Kecha Goat and learn about this exotic creature. Finally, we need ......"
