Section 300 The Secret of the World 5
The Floating Fortress came to a halt in the sky again.
First, pause at a fairly high altitude, turn on various observation equipment, and make a detailed observation of the ground, and then slowly reduce the altitude, while maintaining a high degree of vigilance, concentrating all the nano protection layers to the bottom to avoid being attacked by hidden fire from below.
Finally, reduce to a very low height that almost touches the ground. Then put down the elevator or something, establish a connection to the ground, send people and materials to the ground, and carry out detailed ground exploration activities.
This is a "standard procedure" for Floating Fortresses. I've done this before.
Of course, the first time I was in a hurry. Although almost all of the personnel of the Sixteenth Legion are veterans of many years of training, when it comes to manipulating the Floating Fortress, they are basically novices. Luckily, their commander, the Reds, had a lot of experience in this area. Even so, it is thanks to the fact that no enemy was encountered, otherwise this landing would have turned into a disaster.
Before, the Red Clothes had never understood a question, that is, why Kecha Goyat did not set up defense facilities in the territory under his control, and did not arrange defense troops - let alone defense, not even a guard force.
It stands to reason that this is a very simple thing for Kecha Goat. After all, he can use biotechnology to create an army out of nothing. Setting up a couple of garrison camps or even air defense positions or something is a piece of cake. But Kecha Goyat didn't do that. The floating fortress of the Sixteenth Legion swaggered around the area under the control of Kechagoat, but met no resistance.
Not to mention resistance, except for those strange creatures that have been alienated, not even a ghost has been seen.
This is an incredible thing, because it means that if any enemy breaks through the defenses that Kecha Koyat has deployed on the border (at least on the Huiyue side, Kecha Koat's army is far from powerful), then Kecha Koyat will be defeated in no time, and he will not be able to resist even a little. Because not to mention the strategic depth, he doesn't even have a little force in the rear. This means that he is either an idiot with no basic sense of risk or a fanatic who dares to gamble in a gamble with little chance of winning. After all, everyone knows that there will always be a day when a bluff will be exposed, isn't it? In reality, Huiyue's temptations are becoming more frequent and bold, and it is only a matter of time before this disguise is debunked.
But Kecha Goat shouldn't be a fool and shouldn't be a fanatic.
Now, the red clothes have slowly sensed the reason.
The Floating Fortress has gradually descended to a relatively low altitude, and although it is not yet the limit, what is already visible on the ground. You don't need any additional equipment, and you can see it clearly through the porthole with just the naked eye.
Underneath the floating fortress, there is a cave.
A nondescript looking cave.
This is not a unique cave, there are quite a few caves in this area, or in the area where the various observation devices of the Floating Fortress are observed. At least some of them are the creations of the great engineer "Nature". And, although no professionals or instruments have yet been dispatched to examine it in detail, the Reds believe that these caves lead to the underground city of Kecha Koat.
According to normal procedure, he should send a small team with special equipment to go down and inspect it in detail, and at least come up with a more detailed report on the distribution of underground cavities. However, it is clear that the current situation is no longer so troublesome.
The High Star was ready to go, or rather, she had walked to the entrance and exit of the descent, ready to leave. Obviously, the old woman knew exactly what she was aiming forβshe didn't say it explicitly, but it was obviously pointless for the red clothes to know the previous places.
From the very beginning, the destination of the Most High Star was here. The reason why I took such a big turn was probably just to take a closer look at the deployment of Kecha Goat, or maybe even to think that the Banshee's Gate was quite interesting and take a little time to play.
Of course, this is just speculation. The Reds knew that the Warlocks never made mistakes. What they do is sometimes stupid, but ...... All those who think they are stupid have finally proved that the real stupid ones are themselves.
"Alright, dear student, don't show such a dejected face. We're going to do well, I promise!" the old woman said to Diemon with a smile. In particular, the latter's face is really not very good-looking.
She had pinned her hopes on only being able to accompany her here, but now it was clear that she had to accompany the old woman into the lair of Kacha Goat.
"Why...... Why should I go too?"
"Because of your ability, of course. The old woman said this without the slightest guilt. "In a strange and inevitably complex place, your abilities are so useful. β
Diemeng swallowed her anger, she knew she had no choice. In terms of strength, the old woman is much stronger than her. As mentioned earlier, in a one-on-one situation, let alone defeating this dead old woman, there is no hope of escaping from her. The name of the Supreme Star is definitely not called in vain, and there is definitely a reason why such a large number of people are dying of old age and still refuse to retire in the position of consul.
"Let's be clear, if Kecha Goyat were to do it, I wouldn't be left to die. Diemeng said.
"Don't worry, if the talk really collapses," the dead old woman didn't blush at all. "As long as you can get out, no one will hold you accountable. β
Nonsense, in the lair of Kecha Goat, I don't know how many enemies there are...... At least at the level of tens of thousands. And apparently there are countless defense systems to work with. Although the magic of a warlock is very strong, it is such a thing as killing the enemy's lair alone...... Even for a warlock like Butterfly Dream, it can only be regarded as a myth, just listen to it, and never take it seriously.
"Old woman, how sure are you? It can't be that you don't have the slightest certainty, and you go with the consciousness of sending you to death, right?"
It's a pity that the Most High Star just smiled and didn't say anything.
"Your Excellency the Red, you can open the door. The old woman said. "Just open the door. β
Well, whether it's levitating or flying anyway, it's not a difficult task for a high-level warlock like them, at least at short distances. Redcoat pulled out his panel and gave the order to the command center.
After a short time, this small entrance and exit opened. Although the Floating Fortress has descended to a fairly close position to the ground at this point, the so-called "fairly close" is in terms of the Floating Fortress by its standards. In fact, this highly ordinary person falls down, ensuring that there are no bones left. And before you die, you are guaranteed plenty of time to enjoy the fear of weightlessness before the temporary.
"Well, we're going to be here...... Wait?" Red-robed asked. This place is located above the old lair of Kecha Goat, and the risk is still quite high. Even if there is no danger now, it would be easy for Kecha Goyat to say that he would launch an anti-aircraft weapon or something.
"Your Excellency Red, I don't have any special requirements on this point, you can do it yourself. The old woman smiled. Then, the two women stepped out and fell to the ground like meteors.
"Look at the ......," Hongyi simply choked on this final answer.
However, he did breathe a sigh of relief, because the biggest danger factor in the entire floating fortress had finally left.
Then, he heard a few slight footsteps, but when he looked back, he saw that there was nothing in his sight.
"Is that you?" asked Redcoat, looking into the air in front of him.
"Guess wrong, uncle, I'm here. A woman's voice rang out, and then, the man he expected revealed from the stab on his left side.
She was already dressed in the full Ranger outfit - it didn't fit very well, you could tell. And on this set of equipment, both the clothes themselves and the one-man flying device attached to the back have a lot of visible damage - not very big, but very conspicuous. However, as mentioned earlier, the Ranger's equipment is a typical rough and wear-resistant type, and even some minor injuries will not affect the use. She had already confirmed this herself. It doesn't fit very well, but can be used.
For her at the moment, she can use it!
"You want to come along?"
"Well, it has to go. The daughter smiled. "I know I shouldn't say that, but this time, I'm very grateful. β
"No...... This ......"
"You're too anxious, uncle, I haven't finished my sentence yet. A sarcastic smile appeared on the sorceress's face. "However, I will not forgive you...... Never!"
After she said this, facing the red clothes, with a vigilant posture, she retreated step by step towards the entrance and exit that had not yet been closed. It was as if she was facing a hostile person. Red-clothed stood there, without any movement, watching her retreat to the edge of the entrance, falling backwards, and falling directly from the entrance that had not yet been closed.
The red coat took two steps forward. Although it is said that the Floating Fortress is suspended in the air by anti-gravity, at the moment the entrance and exit are also blowing in a strong wind, making people unstable. Rao was like this, he still grabbed the front, holding on to the railing on the side and looking down.
He happened to watch his daughter spread out on all fours and fall down like a person lazily lying on his couch. Her face was shrouded in the morning light, so she could see it very clearly at that moment. Her face still had the same expression, the mask of coldness, calmness, smile, but no emotion. Then, with this expression, she disappeared into the air silently like the morning dewdrops.
Red-clothed stared at where her daughter had last disappeared, and didn't move for a while. After a long time, he let out a sigh that almost tore his chest apart.
It took a while for a hint from the tactical panel to recover from this emotion. It was his subordinates who asked him what to do next.
"Commander, the opening causes an instability in the internal and external air pressure...... Does it need to be closed?"
"Close the entrance. Redcoat ordered. No one needs to leave anymore. He no longer planned to send a team to the ground to reconnoiter as before. The Radiant Moon Warlock chose this place, so it must be this place.
As the control machine turns, the circular outlet slowly closes. Red-clothed watched until the entrance and exit were completely sealed.
"What's next?" asked the subordinates again through the tactics panel. "Your Excellency the Red, we're going to leave here and go back to the city of Gashe...... Or do you want to wait here?"
