In the center of the two major bases in the east and west of the Shattered Star Lake District, there is a huge sand table, on which the long-term planning from the Shattered Star Lake Area to the Nutao Mountains is piled up.

From the CBD Central Business District, to the Linghua Plant Three-dimensional Farm Demonstration Area, from the high-end residential area, to the Crystal Industrial Integration Area, and then to the Rune Science and Technology Innovation Town...... Dozens of models of skyscrapers hundreds of meters high create a prosperous and advanced city that is not inferior to the main urban area of Dragon City, this "bridgehead for human civilization to enter the other world", is simply the legendary "city of the future".

When I first came here, even the most imaginative students could hardly believe that everything planned on the sand table could become a reality in a short period of time.

But with the victory of the offensive on the northern front, a large number of construction machinery have been transported from the rear to the area that has been swept away in the Broken Star Lake area, along with the river dredging, the mud ponds have been leveled, and the pile drivers roar day and night, as if people have returned to the "era of great construction".

Now, every day when you come back from hunting monsters, your favorite thing to do is to squat around the huge sand table and imagine a better future.

There are also all kinds of gossip flying around.

It is said that the Survival Committee has decided to build the area from the Broken Star Lake District to the Nutao Mountains into a new demonstration development zone, and will build the best area of Chenglong City, named "Xinglong District".

There are also people who say that the land price and housing prices here will soon be speculated to the sky, and in the future, the high-end residences here will be more sought-after than the mansions in the main city, and there will be many strong people moving here, closer to the tombstone forest and the spar veins under the Nutao Mountains, and they can enjoy the nourishment of the aura close at hand, and the cultivation effect is better than living in the main city.

Some people even say that the houses here can't be bought with money, they are all going to be drawn, and only when they make achievements in the offensive on the northern front and accumulate more ratings, will they be more likely to win the lottery at that time.

Every time they say this, the students are red-faced and red-eared, as if they have seen through the fog that they live in a high-end residence in the "Xinglong District" and enjoy the appearance of abundant spiritual energy.

Only Meng Chao squatted in the corner and thought quietly.

In his previous life, he had never heard of the name "Xinglong District".

On the contrary, I vaguely remember that in the years after my mother was burned by the Ghost Eye Golden-winged Flame Worm, Dragon City had always lived a very difficult life, and the lack of materials was to the extent that the rationing system had to be implemented.

The atmosphere in the city was also very depressing, and there was no sense of high morale in the slightest of the big victories and all-round construction.

So, from the current "situation is very good" to "the Xinglong District ends without a problem", what happened?

Meng Chao couldn't find a clue for the time being.

I can only cultivate more and more frantically, and at the same time improve myself, I will spread the martial arts that are more in line with future wars, such as the Extreme Flow, "Mangniu Duel", and "Hundred Battles Sword Method", on a larger scale.

As we entered November, what he had feared finally happened.

The sudden rainstorm rained for three days and three nights, turning the Shattered Star Lake area into a water town.

The water level of the lake, which was originally calm and bright, like a bright moon and like a pearl, rose sharply, causing hundreds of lakes to gather together, like an endless sea with vast water waves.

The area that humans had worked hard for two months to clear out was swallowed up by this mysterious lake in a blink of an eye, and countless stupid, big, thick and black construction machinery that had not had time to be transferred sank to the bottom of the lake.

The wind and rain, like ten thousand arrows, and with a faint corrosiveness, will interfere with the life magnetic field of the transcendent, but also erode the core units of war and construction machinery, human beings can not launch a large-scale offensive in the torrential rain, giving the dying monsters, precious respite.

After three days and three nights of heavy rain gradually stopped, it took another four or five days for the surging lake to slowly recede, but in the area where the lake had been ravaged, the traces of human transformation were washed away without a trace, the ground was at least ten times more wet and muddy than in the past, and the originally fertile soil had become a terrifying swamp, and there were countless mutated snakes, insects, rats and ants lurking in the swamp.

Worse than that, it's the fog.

Although the torrential rain stopped, the fog rose from all directions, enveloping the Shattered Star Lake area for hundreds of miles.

In the fog, not only is the visibility extremely low, even the sharp-eyed transcendents are difficult to see each other clearly from a distance of one or two meters, but there is also a strong psychic magnetic interference, which completely paralyzes the human network, the communication system is half-dead, and the failure rate of the war machinery has increased by more than 100%.

Fog, mud, poisonous insects, communication outages, and the failure rate of complex weapons has increased dramatically...... In such a harsh war environment, only the transcendent can barely cope with it, and the Red Dragon Army, which is composed of ordinary soldiers, is difficult to continue to support the offensive on the northern front unless casualties are not counted.

"How so?"

"Doesn't it mean that the Transcendent Tower has been conducting reconnaissance in the area of the Shattered Star Lake for more than ten years, and has a very comprehensive grasp of the astronomical and geographical parameters here? Why don't you even know that November is the rainstorm season in the Shattered Star Lake area, and such an annoying fog will rise? ”

The front-line soldiers complained.

The environment and meteorologists in the rear are also helpless, according to the observations of the past ten years, the autumn in the area of Shattered Star Lake is a meteorological stability, a very precious window of war, with very few heavy rains and dense fog.

But they didn't know how many kinds of spar veins were hidden in the ground of the Shattered Star Lake area, and these minerals that condensed rich spiritual energy were extremely unstable and could easily interfere with the planet's magnetic field.

According to their analysis, there has never been such a large number of transcendents in the area from the Shattered Star Lake area to the Nutao Mountain Range, and thousands of transcendents at the same time stirring up the life magnetic field, which may produce resonance, affecting the unique vibration frequency of the underground spar veins, stimulating the power of the spar veins, and interfering with the planetary magnetic field in this area, and then distorting the normal weather, resulting in the result of "torrential rain and fog".

"Among the ancient gods and monsters, there are records of cultivators calling for wind and rain, and after the transcendent person steps into the divine realm, he can indeed use his own power to resonate with the magnetic field of the planet, and get the blessing of the power of heaven and earth, which shows that weather changes are closely related to the activities of human powerhouses."

The meteorologist said, "In the past, only a few transcendents were active in the area of the Shattered Star Lake area, conducting small-scale fire reconnaissance, which did not interfere with the weather, but this time, Dragon City has dispatched 'legion-level' transcendentals for the first time in history, which will of course cause 'legion-level' interference to the weather."

"And this is the first time that we have sent so many transcendents away from Dragon City to conduct a strategic-level battle, and no one thought that this kind of thing would happen before we found out how many kinds of spar veins were hidden in the ground from the Shattered Star Lake Region to the Raging Wave Mountain Range!"

It doesn't matter whose responsibility it is.

In fact, even if the arrival of the rainstorm and foggy season was predicted in advance, the offensive on the northern front was ready to be launched.

It is important not to allow the offensive on the northern front to drag on until January and February, the harshest winter in the Otherworld.

In the winter in the wilderness area, the temperature can be as low as minus twenty or thirty degrees or even lower at any time, the earth will freeze into iron lumps, and the failure rate of human precision weapons and construction machinery will increase by a large margin.

At present, the tactics of human beings against monsters are based on the battle fortress, also known as the "fortress flow".

Without the Battle Fortress to output powerful firepower, act as an information transmission node and command center, and provide the necessary supplies and medical care when the strong are hungry and wounded, even the transcendent would not dare to rush too far into the wilderness and engage in too fierce battles.

The arrival of severe cold will undoubtedly reduce the efficiency of human beings in building war forts, and it is very likely to disrupt the rhythm of the entire offensive on the northern front.

At this time, the situation was even worse, and the main arteries from Dragon City to the front line were frequently attacked by monsters.

The monster has become smarter.

Monsters that originally formed groups and condensed into a tide of beasts often like to launch suicidal attacks on armored trains where humans "whine" and hiss.

Under the strong firepower of the armored train and the suppression of the strong escort car, the suicide attack naturally turned into a real suicide.

But now, the monster has discovered that instead of attacking armored trains, it can force the long queues of human armored trains and wagons to stop and give them a chance to take advantage of the dense fog with extremely low visibility to directly destroy railways and roads.

The fog covered an area of nearly twenty kilometers over the entire major artery.

These 20 kilometers have become a road of death with hand-to-hand combat and flesh and blood.

Every day, countless Red Dragon Armies and monsters are engaged in extremely cruel survival games here, railways and highways are broken and repaired, repaired and broken again, and almost every sleeper and every road sign is stained with blood stains that never cool.

As a result, the efficiency of logistics supply has been greatly reduced, and the weapons, ammunition and medicines that can be transported to the front line have been reduced from one-half in the past to one-third or even less, which also further restricts the Red Dragon Army from providing fire support to the transcendental.

Only the transcendent are left, still gritting their teeth and persevering.

Retreat is impossible.

Although the morale is not as high as it was half a month ago, all the people on the front line know very well how much resources Dragon City has invested in this northern offensive and how brilliant the results they have achieved when they are closest to victory.

Retreating now is tantamount to wasting all the savings of the people of Longcheng who have worked hard for decades, and it is impossible to make a comeback without three or five years of recuperation, and when they arrive here again in three or five years, from the Shattered Star Lake District, the Tombstone Forest to the Angry Waves Mountains, it will become a paradise for monsters again.

Then, in the past few months, all the blood sacrificed in the offensive on the northern front has been shed in vain!
