Chapter 1481: The Battle for Landing on the Island, Begins
On the fifth day after the start of the operation, at 9:20 a.m.
Suddenly a thick fog rose around the floating island, and the originally clear sky suddenly became obscure, and the visibility also dropped to about tens of meters.
Here it comes!
Everyone in Command realized that they were crossing what Hekzod called the "phantom border". Although it was the third day of the operation, the real battle was only here!
The huge room was silent, everyone's eyes were fixed on the light curtain, and their bodies were so tense that even Sylvie's magic eye could not penetrate this barrier, which meant that the situation ahead was completely unknown, and no matter what the outcome of fate was, they would have to wait until the last moment to know.
For the top brass of the First Army, who are accustomed to being well-informed and well-informed, this feeling of uneasiness has not appeared for a long time.
Suddenly, a small crow chirped into everyone's ears.
Filmin and the others looked at each other.
This is on the sea, how can there be crows?
But it wasn't an auditory hallucination, and soon more cries were added, overlapping each other, and for a moment it was impossible to tell if it was an echo or if they had encountered a large flock of crows.
Within a few minutes, the cries had joined together, indistinguishable from each other, and were getting louder and louder.
A staff officer's face suddenly changed, "This is the cry of a sea ghost!"
"Sea ghosts?" someone asked, "the legendary creature?"
"No, they're not legends! I used to work in Daqing Port, and the old sailors there would use the black crows of the sea to describe them when they talked about sea ghosts!"
"Hmph, what a fuss. "This is just the lowest vassal of the Heavenly Sea Realm, and the only advantage is that there are enough of them, and it is the most suitable to fill the battlefield." You'll see later what kind of enemies our people have been fighting."
As the Lord of the Sky Dome spoke, the fog suddenly dropped, and the take-off and landing fields on the floating islands appeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then the sky and the sea dome in the distance were still gloomy, but at least they were normal, but the scenery on the sea had become completely different.
Everyone who saw the scene on the other side of the light curtain shuddered.
It was definitely a scene that people will never forget.
Countless water ghosts poked their heads out of the sea and opened their mouths towards the floating islands and roared, as if a dense hole had bloomed in the sea, and the scalp was numb just by looking at it. Their bodies floating underwater give the water an eerie black color, a bit like a puddle of tadpoles hatching, if I have to describe it. However, it is not uncommon to fill puddles, and it is very rare to dye the sea with ink.
The rumored bottomless realm also appeared in front of the floating island, its size was similar to that of a sleeping island, there was no trace of a freshwater lake on it, but it looked lush, not at all like the scene of an isolated island in the ocean.
Soon, the figure of the nest mother appeared in the dark sea ghost group, and they opened the ribs on their backs and sprayed clumps of green slime into the sky! For a while, it seemed that a venom rain fell under the floating island, and if the human race was not led by the "North Slope Mine", but by the regular fleet, the fate could be basically imagined.
There were 1,524 in all. Eleanor's voice suddenly came into everyone's minds.
"You mean ......," Iron Axe said in surprise.
The number of acid nest mothers. She replied in her usual languid tone, no more than the number of cannonballs.
As soon as the words fell, a roar sounded from the lower level of the floating island!
It was Eleanor who was the first to strike back.
A 152-millimeter fortress cannon came out of its disembrehage, and after flying nearly a kilometer, it accurately smashed into the body of a nest mother, and after burrowing into the organs, it exploded, blowing it into two! At the same time, the explosion was also affected by the sea ghosts around it, and the flying shrapnel set off a dense splash on the sea, but this time it was no longer black, but blue blood.
In the past half a month, the engineering team's biggest renovation of the floating island is to add a series of low-level artillery mounts, ranging from 20 mm machine guns to fortress guns of the largest caliber, after all, the main advantage of the Tianhai realm is at sea, and after there is no air defense pressure, enhancing the downward firing firepower is naturally the best choice for the First Army.
At this moment, the floating island is like an aerial battleship, and it is equipped with a fire control computer.
Under Eleanor's control, more automatic turrets joined the fire, and the underside of the island became a place of death where steel and flesh were intertwined!
The sound of artillery shelling alternated with the sound of machine-gun fire, drowning out the neighing of sea ghosts.
Although Hekzod still maintained his posture, the expression on his face was unconsciously much more complicated, and it was obvious that he was also aware of the amazing effect that would be produced when the various clans were combined.
"Let the Sky Knight get ready to go. Tilly picked up the microphone and said.
According to the plan, the Sky Knights will no longer serve as a decisive force in this operation, and they will be divided into dozens of batches and hover over the bottomless realm for a long time. Cutting off support, striking at the enemy's main forces, and relieving pressure on ground forces are all tasks that the air knights have to shoulder. The characteristics of the weak air power in the Celestial Sea Realm must be used to the greatest extent.
Moments later, a series of fuel-laden biplanes slid out of the hangar and into the waiting area.
By 10:40 a.m., the Eleanor had also sailed into the island. There were countless monsters attracted by this behemoth, and they swarmed towards the location of the floating island by stepping on the broken corpses of their own kind, completely ignoring the fact that they could not do the slightest damage to the floating island.
Of course, this also has something to do with Eleanor's deliberate lowering of the altitude to lure enemies into trying to climb the island. It's just that under the strafing of heavy machine guns, breaking through the blockade of the fire net is by no means an easy thing to do.
The rest of the place was much quieter than the boiling west, and it was clear that the sudden arrival of the floating fortress had attracted most of the enemy's attention.
"Let's get started. Anna turned to Hekzod.
The latter snapped his fingers and disappeared into the command center.
At the same time, Chaos was persuaded by the Scourge of Silence and had to entrench on the top of the bridge, and unleashed his ability to be strengthened by the Infinity Sigil, and this magical ripple with true vision instantly swept over the island.
Through the light curtain, the high-ranking officials in the command headquarters could clearly see that the figures of bladed beasts suddenly appeared in those places that were originally empty, and their silhouettes changed from twisted to gradually formed, as if they had been forcibly pulled out of their hiding place.
In the next moment, the Lord of the Heavenly Dome had appeared on the edge of the Bottomless Realm.
It looked up at the top of the sinkhole, and even though it hadn't taken out the multicolored magic stone, it could remember the magnificence it had seen when it first arrived.
"Is the fate of the gods?"
Perhaps this day will come sooner or later from the moment when all the magic light is condensed here, and the end of the battle of divine will not be towards eternity. But when the time came, it felt that it didn't feel so bad to join forces with humans.
Hekzod sneered, and raised his hand to open a huge twisted door Chinese!
