94. Mountain rain is coming
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
The triple 406 mm caliber cannon roared, like a hundred thunders, and a 500-kilogram projectile, fully charged, was fired at a speed of 800m/s......
Standing on the top of the barrier, the test artillery observation group only saw the bright light of the cannon muzzle flashing, as if seeing the fireworks of another world, without a sound, as if the whole world was pressed the mute button.
Huo Ning, a staff officer of the Strategic Staff of the Guard Army, released his ability at the moment when the cannon was fired, and the [Elemental Domain] sound was controlled, isolating all sounds around everyone.
In Lu Xi's view, it is a pale green barrier, like an inverted bowl, covering everyone underneath, and there are circles of ripples on the barrier, which should be the impact of sound waves, the ripples spread layer by layer, disappearing invisible, and the sound is isolated from the outside.
Lu Xi sighed, this is really wonderful.
If you really cut your throat, no one will come to save you.
Thirty kilometers away, an iceberg tens of meters high was hit by a shell, which was instantly crushed and collapsed, and the ice vaporized in the explosion, rising a puff of smoke.
Huo Ning put away the noise barrier, the boundless silence disappeared, and the sound of wind, breathing, and metal colliding from work sounded in everyone's ears again.
Han Qingfeng put down the military binoculars and bowed slightly.
Warm applause rang out, and the iceberg created by the twelve [Elemental Domain] Frost cultivators out of thin air was shattered, proving that the enchanted Italian cannon was able to inflict real damage on the insects.
The test launch was successful.
In the evening, the news of Han Qingfeng's inspection of the No. 3 barrier will be published in all newspapers and media.
"Director Han Qingfeng inspects the defense works of the No. 3 barrier and communicates cordially with the young enchanter"
"Director Han Qingfeng praised the amazing power of the Italian cannon, and technology and ability are the two magic weapons to resist the invasion of insect tides"
"The fortifications of the No. 3 barrier are reinforced, and experts say they can withstand the surging insect tide that has not been encountered in a century"
"Amazing young enchanter, ordinary posts can also contribute to the protection against insect tides"
……
"Director Han Gives a Speech on Resisting the Insect Tide"
When Director Han Qingfeng inspected the No. 3 barrier, he gave a speech to the guards, cultivators, militia, wall maintenance personnel and student representatives who were sticking to the No. 3 barrier. Boost the morale of all staff.
"We will fight to the end.
We will fight on the ramparts,
We will fight in the skies and in the wilderness,
We will have more and more faith and strength.
We will defend the ramparts at any cost,
We fight the invading insect tides,
We fight monsters that appear in nightmares,
We fight against slime-covered miscellaneous bugs,
We will not surrender.
Even if we are conquered in Area 53 or most of this area.
Surrender means death, it means being devoured by foul-smelling bugs, becoming nutrients for their reproduction.
We will resist to the end, and we will never give up ......"
……
The presentation was short, lasting less than five minutes.
The audience was also very small, with only a few people above Barrier 3.
Han Qingfeng was unusually dignified, "Let's go to work, for the sake of District 53 and for ourselves." ”
He stood on the edge of the ramparts and began to assign tasks.
After each order was given, some people were ordered to leave.
In the end, only Congqiu, Huo Ning, Lu Xi, and the remaining trio remained.
Han Qingfeng looked at the wilderness in the distance and didn't speak for a long time.
Lu Xi stepped forward and asked, "What can I do?" ”
"Whew...... Lao Lu, you can help Song Xiaochuan and them do the enchantment work first, and then go to assist the work of the Strategic Staff. ”
"Strategic Staff?"
"It's safer there."
"?"
Han Qingfeng's expression was serious, "Lao Lu, you can play your greatest role there, believe me." ”
Lu Xi nodded, didn't speak again, and quietly accompanied Han Qingfeng to look into the distance.
It seems that the wind is blowing.
……
Ye Ze, who had unloaded the black cauldron, became low-key as he wished.
But he found that this was not the life he wanted.
What he wants is the kind of low-key that he uses to humble himself after radiating a thousand rays of light. Instead of being obscure and unattended.
Ye Ze drove away the family members who picked him up.
Even though Area 53 has closed off all evacuation paths, people like them can always find a way to leave.
Ye Ze didn't want to leave like this, he felt that this was a good opportunity for him to make a contribution, and it was an opportunity for him to stand out among his peers.
During this time, Ye Ze successfully upgraded the [God's Perspective] ability trait to Tier 2.
It's time to show your worth.
Most of the students of the Command Academy were recruited into the militia and garrison groups, and the elite students were incorporated into the practitioner coalition, which was composed of members of major corporations, civil servants, professional hunters, and social cultivators.
And Ye Ze thinks that these places cannot reflect their own role.
Militia regiments and garrisons are mainly responsible for vigilance support and battlefield cleaning.
Due to their special nature, the Cultivator Alliance is generally mixed together by small teams based on ability traits.
After the Guardians have swept away the insect tide and cut the battlefield into small pieces. The combat team of the Cultivator Alliance, which is responsible for killing the scattered insects one by one, is the main force for destroying the insects.
None of these armed forces need strategic-level vision and intelligence.
There is only one place that can make yourself shine and make a splash, the Strategic Staff.
He knocked on the door of the principal's office and handed in a letter of self-recommendation and a statement of competence.
The bug invasion could be a disaster, but for Ye Ze, it was an opportunity.
……
Trains to other areas in District 53 have been discontinued. When there are still trains coming into the station, carrying supplies and reinforcements from other areas.
The 51st District sent 5,000 guards, but the army was sloppy and not fully equipped, and it looked like a miscellaneous brand.
Reinforced by Sector 41 is a mixed force composed of a thousand low-level cultivators and war behemoths, which has a certain amount of combat effectiveness, but the number is better than nothing.
In addition to the guards, Sector 33 also sent a small number of medical and engineering personnel.
……
Reinforcements from other areas were assembled outside the No. 1 barrier, and the teams of different subordinates and different branches of the army wore different uniforms. There was some chaos at the scene.
No one noticed that a special group of people had mixed in.
They were dressed in gray garments without any markings, their faces were hidden in their hoods, and they were very tall and unsmiling.
There were not many of them, only a few dozen people, and as the procession was marching, they deliberately dispersed, and soon melted into the chaotic queue, and then hid their figures, like a drop of water dropping into the ocean, and disappeared without a trace.
……
Han Qingfeng looked at the list of reinforcements from other regions and snorted coldly, "The resources are generous, but the reinforcements sent are all miscellaneous cards, but I am quite confident in District 53." ”
"Well, we don't count on them either. Wait for the insect tide to push, and see how I clean them up. ”
A tattered plane, returning to Area 53. The fuselage was covered with holes corroded by acid, the ailerons had broken, the rudder had failed, and it staggered to land at the airfield of Barrier No. 2.
