Chapter 1155: The Battle of Taqira (I)
With the alarm blowing, the front line suddenly entered the highest state of alert in accordance with the emergency response.
"Quick, quick! Throw away the tools in your hand and find the nearest shelter passage to yourself!" The soldiers in charge of the evacuation guided the engineering team to evacuate the construction site, "Don't push, don't look around! Remember, no matter what happens outside, don't leave the shelter without permission!"
"Vault Six is full!"
"Number Seven can't be stuffed into anyone!"
"Go backwards, go to the next shelter, don't block the passage, all move!"
This is not the first time such an incident has happened, although the soldiers shouted one after another, and the atmosphere at the scene seemed quite tense, but there was no loss of order.
Nearly 2,000 workers dispersed like a tidal wave, following pre-programmed evacuation routes into one underground bunker after another—temporary shelters carved out by the lotus were located behind the defensive line, topped with steel plates, and were not only passable, but also effective against spear throwing and machine-gun fire. As long as the outer ring is not lost, hiding in it means safety.
After the crowd retreated, the originally bright construction site was quickly shrouded in darkness.
"The evacuation of the engineering team is basically complete, the lights are under normal control, and the First Army is entering positions. Sylvie quickly looked around and relayed the latest information to the various units. At this moment, the observation room set up above the theater headquarters can be said to be the busiest place on the front line, and the more than 10 telephones on the long table ring in turn, making people overwhelmed, and the staff officers in charge of answering them sit in a circle around the table to determine the importance of the news before informing Sylvie.
On the other hand, many staff officers have gathered the news and fed it back to the sand table or map, providing a key basis for the decision-making of the headquarters.
If in the past Sylvie was the "eye" of the army, now the observation room built with her as the center is the information center of the entire army, and as long as she is in charge, the operational efficiency of the First Army can reach several times that of peacetime.
"Yes...... Yes, I see. Miss Sylvie, the artillery battalion has called from Fanner, and I would like you to provide the enemy's location and the coordinates of the test fire. ”
"And Heihe No. 1 and No. 2 also sent the same request!"
"Let them wait a little longer," Sylvie swept the line in front of him, the "Black Shadow" was not advancing fast, probably a little slower than walking, and was now just entering the ten-kilometer shooting circle. At this rate, it would take me five or six hours to get to the front of the position, so it was imperative to find out what the devils were trying to do with the blind spot of the Divine Punishment Stone.
When magic detection doesn't work, the eye is the most reliable method.
She picked up the listening sigil, "Lightning, Maisie, can you hear me, where are you now?"
"As soon as I took off, Maisie was right above me. After a while, another sigil came from the other party's answer, and at the same time, there was a high-pitched siren, "What happened?
"It looks like the stance, but the enemy interferes with the observation of the MONOCULUS, and the range is large. I'm guessing it's the same as last time, I'm afraid it's a large Divine Punishment Stone. ”
"Got it, I'm going to go over and take a look. ”
"Leave it to us!"
Compared with the tense and busy atmosphere in the observation room, in the eyes of Lightning, the battlefield at this time is a different picture.
The light of the fire under his feet was shrinking little by little, as if it had been swallowed up in the night. And the land in the distance is even darker, deep and silent.
The fertile plains seemed to be still asleep, with no sign of a major war.
If it weren't for Sylvie's alarm, it's hard to imagine that the enemy would have lunged towards them.
"Maisie, turn on night vision mode!"
"Goo-goo!"
I saw that the white pigeon's feathers swelled rapidly, wrapping its body in a ball, and then a huge and unfriendly head came out of the feathers, and the round eyes occupied almost the entire eye socket.
"The owl is transformed!"
"Then let's go—"
Lightning grabbed the "giant owl" above his head with both hands and flew northeast.
However, before he could get close to Tachira, he heard Sylvie's urgent call suddenly sound from the sigil, "The reconnaissance is canceled, you two are coming back soon!
Lightning shuddered, and her limbs seemed to stiffen a lot, and after trying to suppress the fear in her heart, she bit her lip and replied, "Even so, it shouldn't be so easy to spot me." And...... If I return now, I can't know what the devil wants to hide with the Divine Stone, right?"
"But—"
"Don't worry, it won't be able to catch up with me with the Flying Demon Stone alone, as long as you avoid its large-scale forbidden demons. ”
Lightning clenched her fists - even though cold sweat was already pouring out of her palms, she didn't want to run away like this. The battlefield experience of more than half a year made her understand that she was not a brave person, not only the witch punished by God, but even an ordinary old man like the train conductor was much braver than her.
But she's not alone in all of this, she has Maisie, Loga, Joan behind her...... And many partners are supporting her, so that she can face herself and have the courage to start again.
From recovering her ability a little bit to detecting the devil again, she crossed one level after another, and finally came to the place where she fell half a year ago.
There are only two hurdles left to be overcome.
Fly before the eyes of the Demon Slayer, and ......
Give it a hard blow - in return for hurting itself!
"Maisie, I'll leave the other party's movements to you. Lightning unbuckled the collar and forced the owl into the flight suit, leaving only one head exposed, and then went straight to the speed of sound - just ten kilometers away, she could stay flying at high speed all the time!
"Nourish...... Beware, Enemies...... Multiply...... I noticed you......" Probably affected by the harmony of magic, Sylvie's voice instantly became choppy.
Even without this warning, Lightning knew that he was exposed—as long as the devil was not deaf, he could undoubtedly hear this sound that crossed the sound barrier.
But she moves faster than she sounds, which also means that by the time the enemy hears the explosion, she has already swept over their heads.
After a few breaths, Maisie's hawkeye caught the target.
"That monster is right in front of you!"
By the hazy moonlight, the lightning had not yet spotted the demon slayer, and had already seen a circle of black light spread abruptly!
There is no doubt that the high-level devil's faint vision is still above Maisie - the other party not only saw her, but also approached her flight path as close as possible, and directly launched the forbidden demon realm when it was unable to intercept her.
In an instant, she pushed her speed to the limit and went from level flight to diving!
For a moment, lightning even felt the eerie, cold black light grab her ankle. But the illusion quickly dissipated, and in a single breath, she was far behind the black light. After breaking through the Demon Slayer's interception, there was no threat in front of her, and she pulled up again, crossing the entire Demon Position in a straight arc, taking in all the abnormal movements below.
In the dim moonlight, Lightning saw two large divine stones that had been cut into the shape of cylinders, being pushed forward like rolling stones. The stone pillars are staggeringly stunning, at least 20 meters long and nearly 3 meters high, and at first glance look like a fallen bell tower. Behind each pillar were seven or eight spider demons neatly arranged, huddled together and crawling slowly, pushing the Divine Punishment Stone towards the direction of the First Army.
More madmen followed, seemingly using the pillar as a cover for movement.
