Chapter 119: The Square
If you want to settle near the lakes outside Dresspel City, the first and most critical thing is the defense problem, since you have occupied the most important magic spring for the empire, then Nangong Rong and the empire will definitely not be able to sit down and negotiate calmly without fighting. In view of the huge difference in strength between the two sides, the boy naturally would not choose to take the initiative to attack, and how to defend the camp was the most important thing.
As a result, the shield generator invented by Mira, which was intended to be obtained after the settlement was established, became the most urgently needed thing at the moment.
In the early morning of the next day, after arranging for a few compatriots to go to the nearby road leading to Drimpel City to squat and be responsible for pulling people and publicity, Nangong Rong hurriedly activated the teleportation function and left the Razfield plane. Of course, this time the system has recorded the spatial coordinates well, and there will be no more strange situations where the teleportation location is completely random, and she has established a stable passage between the two cities of Beldham and Razfield.
This is also the key to the Alliance's plan to help each other between different planes, without which it is impossible to talk about it. Of course, the only person who has succeeded in doing so is Nangong Rong, and the device users of other planes have basically been wiped out. Even if there are sporadic survivors, they are still attached to others, and they can't be the masters at all.
However, Nangong Rong, who doesn't seem to have any amazing talent or ability, can go far, and the system named Golden Retriever says that it is not very clear, and all she can do is support the teenager with all her might.
In order not to attract attention, the passage was erected in Nangong Rong's tent, and Mira was in charge of seeing Nangong Rong off - or to be precise, carefully telling the teenager to be a qualified porter.
"This, this, and this, remember to bring these things written on the slip of paper, I need them for my research on the lake. In addition, in order to save military money, you had better get some tent food from there, because it is really not cost-effective to buy it here. Finally, if possible, please bring a little more cosmetics, Fattie Chubby, and a silk folding fan. β
Nangong Rong, who was very impatient to hear this, suddenly asked in surprise: "Let's not mention the serious things in front of me, I can guess more or less what you plan to do with them when I make cosmetics and decisive fat (divine beasts), but what the hell is the silk folding fan?"
The glasses lady immediately put on an extremely serious appearance, leaning on the shiny lenses and said: "Of course, when you and the eldest princess officially meet, stand behind the young man and position the angle, so that the lenses reflect the light, so that others can't see Miss Ben's eyes, making herself look very mysterious, and then holding a folding fan on her chest, gently shaking it to pretend to be an unfathomable beauty military advisor, in order to attract the attention of Lord Charlot, who is likely to follow the eldest princess!"
The young man couldn't help but cover his forehead with his hand with black lines: "I know...... To be reasonable, you can't be a beautiful military advisor at all, and the dog-headed military advisor is almost the same. β
"The kobold military division is also stronger than no bright spots, anyway, please. β
Nangong Rong, who was worried that there would be more and more things annotated by someone, hurriedly stopped the other party, and at the same time took a step towards the plane passage: "Okay, I know, I will definitely bring it to you if I have the chance." Then the camp side will be handed over to you for the time being, if you encounter a large wave of troops to force the demolition, don't clash with the other side, just hide in the woods. I'll be back as soon as I can. β
"OK, have a nice trip. β

In Lin Weiyin's view, the street fighting in Beldown City is not so bad, but it is also not very optimistic. After the humans decided to let the abyssal monsters land, the ports in the radiation zone became a paradise for all kinds of curiosity, crawling and gathering, and the urban areas that were not affected by the radiation were the world of human troops.
The abyss, which lasted for a day and a night, paid a huge and even tragic price in the city, causing great casualties and losses to mankind, countless high-rise buildings were ablaze and smoke came out, the streets were shattered to the point that they were unrecognizable, and the whole city became a purgatory of blood and fire.
As for the central square where Lin Weiyin was responsible for guarding, the large art statues stood were turned into a terrifying millstone, constantly devouring and tearing everything apart, whether it was the abyss, humans or the surrounding buildings. This ghost place changed hands three times in more than 20 hours, and the statue as a landmark has long ceased to exist in the shelling, and most of the nearby buildings have been reduced to ruins, and the road is full of potholes, but unexpectedly not a single body can be found.
The reason is simple, the abyss will decompose corpses into resources for reuse, and humans will naturally not allow the other side to do so, so the victorious side will immediately collect the corpses of the dead on both sides after the battle. Either recycle or incinerate, that's why it looks so "clean".
The bodies of human soldiers are also incinerated, as burying them in place would be turned out of the abyss after the troops retreated, and it is even less likely that they would be transported to the rear for a dignified burial in today's war situation.
It's hell, and humans seem to be used to it. They have built defenses like papier-mΓ’chΓ© in the ruins of buildings, in the deep craters of heavy artillery, behind destroyed tanks, and in all kinds of places you can imagine and unthink, and have repelled the abyss's massive attack twice in a row.
Lin Weiyin didn't participate in the battle in the sky, after all, at least the human air force could still fight on an equal footing with the flying monsters of the abyss, and now it even vaguely showed a trend of gradually gaining the upper hand. In the last battle, if it weren't for a bomber that arrived in time to wash the floor along the streets, the defenders, who were almost out of ammunition, would probably have been ready to turn around and flee.
From the reports on various fronts, it can be seen that the Abyss's attempt to launch a full-front attack to break through the army's defense line and spread all over the human hinterland has basically failed, and the other side is gathering the remaining combat forces, and it is unknown whether it intends to concentrate its forces to attack one place or to escape.
However, it doesn't matter what the abyss intends to do, the preparations for clearing the radiation have been made, and the surviving fleets that left the port to avoid fighting have also been rested, and the air force will only use special substances to eliminate the effects of radiation on the ocean, and the fleet will be able to quickly go around and block the retreat of the abyss, and cooperate with the ground forces to completely wipe out the opponent on land.
The only thing that made Lin Weiyin feel uneasy was the existence of the suspected energy creature whose body was unknown. The guy never appeared, as if he had completely disappeared, and for the past few days it has been attacked by all kinds of large miscellaneous soldiers.
As a regular combat unit of the abyss, the humanoid monster with dark blue flames burning all over its body seems to be able to annihilate the matter near itself, which is almost an inexplicable existence for the army using live ammunition weapons, but it is not clear whether the energy weapon on Lin Weiyin's power armor can hurt the other party. If even the girls have nothing to do with it, then no matter how much sacrifice and effort the army in front of them has put in, no matter how well the battle is fought, there is no point in it, and humanity can only choose to retreat.
Then "plant" a mushroom cloud in the city.
So in the past few days, Lin Weiyin has been equipped with land combat components based on energy weapons, so that she can rush over to block the other party as soon as the boss appears.
It's a pity that all the girl's weapons are used to summon all kinds of abyssal soldiers.
A group of reinforcements appeared in the square with a large amount of ammunition, which somewhat restored the morale of the tired crowd. However, not long after Lin Weiyin had just finished replenishing the consumption of power armor with the help of technicians in the supply point at the back far from the square, a hoarse roar made everyone's nerves tense instantly.
"The Abyss has begun to move, and they did not retreat after gathering, but came directly towards us!"
Huge monsters have proven to be just as thankless in street fighting as tanks, and when the opponent is disassembled and miniaturized, the rifles of ordinary soldiers can pose a threat to them, so the effect of urban resistance is surprisingly better. Seeing that their victory was in sight, the soldiers on the square position were not panicked or frightened by the news, but felt somewhat unexpected.
The final desperate counterattack is very suitable for the approach of monsters who have been cornered, isn't it?
Therefore, everyone quickly cursed and complained, such as the hot meal had not yet eaten a mouthful of and urine, and so on, quickly received ammunition, rolled into their own bunkers with weapons, and organized defenses on the position in an orderly manner.
Lin Weiyin's treatment is naturally better, the little girl is attacking with a large piece of chocolate in her mouth, and the appearance of hurrying away will not make people feel out of harmony at all if the chocolate is replaced with jam bread power armor and a junior high school uniform.
It's a pity that the girl doesn't experience such a routine, at least for now.
In the eyes of ordinary soldiers who don't know the existence of humanoid flame monsters, the battle situation in the city is already very clear, and what they have to do next is to block the counterattack of the abyss and hold on until reinforcements arrive and finally destroy all the monsters to meet the victory, and there will be no accidents in between, but if he knows that the fleet sailors of the boss exist here, he will definitely not be so optimistic, and even feel nervous and dignified.
If the abyss doesn't attack the boss in what is obviously the last attack, there will be no more chances.
There was a rumbling thunder from the rear, and it was a heavy artillery group that was fireing at the monsters. The artillery was of great help in several days of fighting, and of course demolished many buildings, not to mention the damage they caused to the city, at least the sound of their shelling was one of the motivators for the soldiers to keep fighting.
As the chocolate bites, Lin Weiyin, like the others, is looking forward to the series of earth-shattering explosions caused by the cannonballs hitting the ground, which means that a large number of monsters have returned to the furnace to rebuild without seeing their faces, and the subsequent battle will be easier because of this.
But this time, the explosion never appeared.
"What's going on, could it be that those guys in the rear military factory finally made a mistake after working overtime and fatigue for several days in a row, and made a batch of duds of poor quality and sent them to the front?"
"Hey, hey, even then it doesn't go silent, I always feel like things are a little weird. β
"Who knows what's going on, communications soldiers, images from drones?"
Unlike the soldiers who were in confusion and confusion, Lin Weiyin's face instantly turned pale. The girl knew that she was going to come after all, and the boss didn't show up at the beginning of the street battle, and it was estimated that she was going to let the miscellaneous soldiers consume the strength of the army first, and now that this goal has been achieved, it is a good time for the other party to make a move.
After taking a deep breath and slowly exhaling it, the girl whispered to herself and said, "It's okay, if the other party is completely invincible, he won't let the miscellaneous soldiers consume it first, but will come up and crush it directly." Since it chose to do this, it must have some scruples about us, the other party is not invincible, we can knock it down!"
Of course, Lin Weiyin didn't know if her analysis was right or not, maybe the abyss was just playing a mouse-like trick with a cat that first gave you hope and then made you desperate, deliberately waiting until humans thought they could really win a big victory. But even if that was the case, the girl had no other choice but to fight the other party hard.
Even if the end is very likely to be death.
"The second wave of shelling began, and the shells still did not explode!"
"The drone was also destroyed, it is not known what exactly happened there. β
"The enemy's vanguard is in sight, everyone is ready for battle!"
Unlike humans running on two legs, these monsters are running very fast, and the time of two or three waves of artillery bombardment appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and they were immediately warmly welcomed by all kinds of long guns and short cannons. To the soldiers' relief, at least the bullets they fired were still effective against the monsters, and these curious crawls were already on their backs before they flipped over on their backs.
Everything looked the same as before, with hordes of monsters coming from the streets, the ruins of buildings, and the seemingly blocked sewers toward the square, crashing into the human position like waves crashing against the reef.
From time to time, some unlucky people are hit by long-range attacks from abyss monsters, and a few people fail to escape in time and are drowned in the monster group, but just because of this, it is a little worse to make the human soldiers collapse.
The flag that was planted on the pedestal to replace the statue that had been shattered into slag on the ground was always standing in the wind.
The soldiers gathered around the banner were convinced that they would be able to achieve the final victory, until a huge three-story figure appeared unhurriedly down the street to the edge of the square.
Its entire body is composed of dark blue flames, and the entity inside is invisible, but on its face made of flames, its facial features are similar to those of an abstract painting, and its two eyes are slowly surveying everyone in the scene.
It was clear that this thing was the embodiment of flames, but its eyes made everyone feel as cold as falling into an ice cave.
