Chapter 5: The Wall of Heaven

In December of the 568th year of the Altino calendar, the suburbs of the central capital of Altino

When the confrontation between Jinao Island and Titanic Fortress continued, and the whole attention was focused on the main guns at the front of the fortress, not everyone was only focused on this, and there were still some people who were active at the end of the fortress.

The explosion just now caused damage to the equipment at the end of the fortress, in addition to causing the loss of communication, there were also some other big and small effects, and the relevant technicians on the Titanic 1 were immediately dispatched to repair it, and were also responsible for finding out the cause of the explosion and damage.

According to the latest news on the bridge, it was the enemy's general Zhou Gongjin who personally went out and caused the damage to the tail of the fortress, but God bless Reins, His Majesty King Lancelot has just arrived and is engaged in a fierce battle with Zhou Gongjin, preventing the enemy from continuing to destroy the Titanic Fortress.

Of course, this news is gratifying, but some people are also confused, and ask why the enemy suddenly ran to the front of the fortress after destroying the tail of the fortress? Wouldn't it be easier to get hold of the rear of the fortress than if the front end of the fortress had self-recovering earthen wall armor, and it was too late to complete the tail of the fortress with this equipment? Moreover, Zhou Gongjin had already successfully destroyed some of the facilities, and if he continued to attack a few more times, the Titanic Fortress might have been paralyzed, thus fulfilling the enemy's goal.

This reasonable question, no one can answer, the puzzled technician leader just told his subordinates that the Heavenly Rank Martial Artist will be in a mess as soon as he fights, from the tail of the fortress to the front end, and from the front end back to the tail, and then both of them fly out, these are all very normal situations, and this is the case in the past documentary images, no need to be surprised.

Everyone nodded at this explanation, but no one noticed that the young technician who had asked those questions in the first place had indeed hit the heart of the matter.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

As several technicians went back and forth through the destruction and came to the rear hatch, which was exposed to the cover of earth and rock, someone suddenly heard a strange sound, as if someone was knocking on the hatch. At such a time, it was said that such a voice should not be heard, and everyone was vigilant, and they took out the beam weapons on their waists, preparing to be on guard against the enemy from outside.

"What are these knocking sounds?"

"You don't need to ask, of course it's someone outside!"

"Well, it must not be our people, right? Only the enemy will be outside, but the enemy won't kill him directly, so what are they doing knocking on the door outside?"

"You should ask the enemy about this kind of thing! At the moment of life and death, why are there so many questions?"

"No, no, no, I'm just trying to find out if the enemy is knocking on the door outside, could it be some kind of code? If so, it must be to their accomplices, so there may be enemy accomplices hidden inside our fortress?"

While everyone was cautious and engrossed in staring at the hatch, a series of questions from the back of the line made everyone very impatient, but the last sentence made everyone's nerves tense.

On the way to Zhongdu, the Titanic No. 1 sailed at high speed throughout the whole process, and coupled with the vigilance system of the ship itself, it was difficult for even a celestial warrior to invade the airship. But what is difficult to do does not mean that it cannot be done, and there are still people among the top masters of the enemy who can complete this task.

The moment everyone turned their heads, there was no human figure, only the rolling wind and sand, and the oncoming tornado sandstorm, which instantly swept all the technicians into the group, and when the wind and sand stopped, only a pile of shriveled corpses that had been absorbed of water were left on the ground.

"I'm sorry, but everyone is their own master, and they die without complaint. ”

Hua Tianxie, who was dressed as a service soldier, opened the hatch from the inside and quickly rushed into the fortress, it was the embarrassed Hao Kelian.

"Did you bring anything?"

Hua Tianxie's tone seemed leisurely, but it was difficult to hide the nervousness in his heart, this plan was also a big risk of life and death for him, if Hao Kelian was a moment late, or gave a negative answer, then what he had to do was to immediately pull out his legs and flee for his life.

"Of course I brought it! For the sake of this thing, I had to leave it until the last minute, it's really dangerous......

Hao Kelian handed a black box in her arms to Hua Tianxie, and she couldn't help but spurt out another mouthful of blood, and almost fell to the ground. Missing a heavenly position, Gong Jin injured her very much, and rushed to this side after leaving Jinao Island, but was caught up by Yan Ning halfway, and was hit by two more palms, and finally got rid of the person, tired of running, and now he can barely stand up.

Hua Tianxie opened the black box, and inside was a chip from Jinao Island, next to which was a jelly-like green object. The green object was still a creature, and as soon as it came into contact with the air, it immediately expanded in size, and Hua Tianxie threw the box at the nearby mechanism, and the jelly-like demon creature quickly fused into it, carrying the chip, and quickly sneaking through the metal wall.

(Will it be successful?? It depends on the luck...... )

Hua Tianxie helped Hao Kelian up, he had no experience working with this woman before, but this time the whole mission was carried out in a row, and she did take on the heaviest work alone, not only successfully provoked the confrontation between Jinao Island and Titanic Fortress, but even indirectly caused the death match between the two top martial artists outside.

The fierce battle between Lancelot and Gong Jin can be clearly perceived by Hua Tianxie even if he is in the fortress. For the strength and tricks of the two of them, he was sincerely amazed, and even ashamed of himself, on the one hand, he admired Gong Jin's outstanding cultivation, and on the other hand, he was amazed by Lancelot's progress, however, ......

"Even if you claim to be unparalleled in wisdom, you still can't escape the ugly whirlpool of human nature...... It's no wonder that as long as it's human, it's human, and if it's human, there's no way to get rid of these designs. ”

Lancelot aside, Hua Tianye didn't dare to underestimate Gong Jin's resourcefulness in the slightest. In this horror of the coming apocalypse, Gong Jin may be the only one who is still awake and knows what to do, but even if he knows, he is still affected by his own unwilling emotions, and at this juncture, he fights with Lancelot to the death.

It's like two big snakes biting each other's tails, they can only roll together and fall off the cliff. This happened to Lancelot and Gongjin, as well as to Jinao Island and Titanic Fortress......

"Speaking so confidently, then who do you think you are?" Hao Kelian, who had taken a breath, squinted at Hua Tianxie. She didn't like this man, she just avoided him before, even if she had to stand on the front line with him from now on, she still didn't like the feeling that this man exuded.

"In your opinion, the enemy is two snakes that bite together and roll down the mountain, so are you the one who looks cold?"

"Nope. I learned a lot from Shi Chong, the most important of which was...... I think it doesn't matter what I do, but if a person thinks he is a praying mantis, there must be a big yellow finch behind him. ”

Hua Tianxie responded lightly, closed his eyes again, and used his heart to perceive the battle between Lancelot and Gong Jin. That kind of elbow attack of the Thunder Red Emperor made him break out in a cold sweat, in order not to suddenly suffer such a heavy move in the future, he must now collect good information.

※※※

Among the Heavenly Rank Martial Artists, there are all kinds of characters, and each person's journey to advance in the Heavenly Rank is different. Gong Jin should have had a deep understanding of this, but it wasn't until this moment that he discovered that the world was indeed so big, and among his enemies, there were still people who inexplicably broke through the wall of heaven.

If Gong Jin had the opportunity to learn about Nier, she would be no stranger to such an example, however, Gong Jin, who came into contact with this kind of instance for the first time, couldn't imagine that there was such a person in the world. Compared to this kind of person who is confused in practice, what is his hard practice?

The speed at which the spatial gap expanded increased, and several small and medium-sized breaches connected into one place, turning into a large rift half a mile in diameter, rapidly sucking the surrounding objects into the black nothingness. Gong Jin noticed this, and also noticed the dense thunderbolt and lightning, and he wanted to stand up, but he couldn't find the strength to support his physical activity.

"Damn monkey, why do you always stand in my way? Shangri-La was and still is, if you hadn't been in my way, the world would have been too peaceful!"

Gong Jin, who had no strength to fight and couldn't stand his anxiety, could only turn his excitement into words and reprimand him angrily. Of course, there is no reason for the party who has been reprimanded to remain silent.

"Blame me? It's too ignorant to say such things, isn't it? Who did it to us first? How much harm did you do to us in the city of Hangzhou and on the dry ear mountain? Your life and my wife's life have all been messed up by you!"

Lancelot was also exhausted, and Lancelot couldn't stand up, trying to recover his true anger, while also returning his mouth because of anger.

"Just for the sake of your personal vendettas, are you ignoring the future of the entire Wind Continent?"

"Wrong! It's for the sake of the future of the entire Wind Continent that I'm here to stop you! This is not a personal grudge, this is my responsibility as King Reins!"

The name of King Reyns was mentioned, and if it was for Gong Jin's anger to ignite the flames. Since Lancelot's accession to the throne, he has seen everything Lancelot do, all his stupidity, impulsiveness, arrogance, and selfishness, which once annoyed him very much in The Hague. Such a miscellaneous person who is purely based on luck and supported by others has become the king of a country, and any joke is secondary, but it is unbearable to see him act recklessly and take Reynes to such a field.

"Are you the king? Have you done what a king should do? Do you know what a leader should do?

Restrained and deep all his life, Gong Jin knew that he was not a good mentor, and he never thought that he would say such things to others, but at this moment when he was eager to act, but he couldn't move, the only thing he could do was to turn the indignation in his heart into words and shout it out.

What can be said, what I want to say, what should be said, and what should not be said, all blurted out at this time, for Gong Jin, this can be called the most impulsive and out of control speech in his life, if it weren't for the heavy psychological pressure during this time, if it weren't for Lancelot's two blows that made him feel like a brain ache, he would never speak like this, however, no matter what, those secrets that Gong Jin had kept strictly in his heart were said at this time.

It was the first time Lancelot had heard of this, and Reins had been completely outside of the situation and had no way of knowing about it. The imminent collapse of the Wind Continent and the infection of the people of Zhongdu did shock Lancelot and made him re-evaluate the man in front of him. Whatever he did, it was remarkable that the man was carrying the secrets and responsibilities on his own, and trying to solve the problem instead of running away from it.

When Lu Shen was in Japan, Lancelot had felt similar pressure, and he could fully understand Gongjin's mood. This man has many grudges against himself and is his great rival, but his persistence and achievements in martial arts make him admire himself as a martial artist, and his spirit of not thinking for selfish interests and for this land everywhere is also what Lancelot can't ask himself.

In particular, when Lancelot thought that the bombardment was aimed at killing all infected citizens and preventing the spread of demonic influence, he believed that he would never be able to do so. In this way, he really does not have the consciousness and qualifications to be a king.

Maybe...... At the beginning, the wife chose the wrong inheritance partner. If Kokusa and Gengoro had chosen to assist such a person at the beginning, the current situation might have been different, and the number of battles and casualties between the past few years might have been completely avoided.

Thinking of this, Lancelot suddenly had some doubts, putting aside his personal feuds, why did he and this man fight to the death in this field? What is the reason, they want to fight until only one side is allowed to survive, and never die? If the fight is because of disagreement, then what is the difference between himself and this man?

At such a critical moment, Lancelot also felt stupid to think about this kind of question, but he felt that it was necessary, because if he couldn't answer this question, then he would not find the motivation to support himself in the fight.

Closing his eyes and thinking about it, Lancelot thought back to the reason why he had come to the battlefield, and the actions Gong Jin had done since the Battle of Shangri-La, and when those things flashed through his mind, he found that he had found the answer.

"Iron-masked dude!"

From the very beginning of this battle, Lancelot did not use the word "shemale" anymore, which was somewhat due to the fact that he sensed the respectability of the enemy and put away his disdain.

"You're great, but you seem to have gotten something wrong. What do you think is the so-called King Reins?"

"The king of Reins shoulders the national fortune and safety of Reins, and every thinking is based on the premise of national interests, not for personal selfish desires. ”

"That's a beautiful thing to say, but what do you think are the people who should be protected?"

"No race or noble, as long as all the people born in Reyns. ”

"That's true, but it's not the same as my definition!"

was refuted by the other party, Gong Jin was stunned, and his brain woke up. In the White Deer Cave, there is a vertical and horizontal faction that is good at talking, specializing in playing with tongue and tongue, looking for people to talk about it, Gong Jin is also familiar with the academics of this school, and understands that if you want to specifically pick out language problems, there are many loopholes in your words, and you can't help but curse and be confused, how to fight with this monkey.

But Lancelot didn't want to pick on words or quarrel, he just felt that there were some things that had to be said, and that the man had to understand.

"I, the King of Reins, am the King of all things Reins...... Don't you understand? That means all the things in Reyns are mine!"

"Y-What are you talking nonsense?"

"I like my people, but I also like every grass and tree, every bird and animal in my country, in my opinion, they are all equal, I don't want to hurt other lives because I have to take care of human beings, everything has the same equal right to live. Striking a balance between these is my duty as King Reins. ”

"Hmph, what nonsense responsibility, what does this have to do with us?"

"Of course it matters! You are the leader of Altinor, every life in Altinori is also your responsibility, whether it is pigs, cats, cats, dogs, or humans, their lives and safety should only be asked, since the right to life of every race is the same, then why do you want to kill all of them when some of them change races? Did they ask you to do this?"

"Ridiculous!"

Gong Jin, who was originally sore and weak, felt a burst of anger in his heart, and regained a few percent of his strength, but he didn't notice this.

"When the body is sick and carrion appears, it must be cut off before it can be cured. These people are infected by demonization, as soon as the enemy triggers it, they will immediately become ill, and when the time comes, they will become inhumane monsters, wreaking havoc in the world, the number of casualties is not something people like you can imagine, if you don't sacrifice them, what will the rest of you do?"

"Ha, infection, illness, even you think it's just a disease, since it's a disease, can't you treat it slowly? Don't say that they haven't gotten sick yet, and even if they do, they don't necessarily lose their minds and have no humanity. The demons are just a non-human race other than elves and orcs, if all the citizens of the capital city become orcs, do you want to kill them all?"

If Lancelot had spoken in a fierce tone, accusing Gong Jin of his mistakes, another death fight would have broken out now, however, Lancelot's tone was a faint mockery, questioning Gong Jin's repeated and difficult questions within an acceptable range, so every sentence was like a dark night lamp, lighting up in front of Gong Jin's eyes.

Ask yourself, your own intelligence is far better than this monkey, haven't you thought about these questions before? I should have considered them all, but why did I reject those possibilities? What is the reason? Why can't I find a reason to refute it at this moment?

"Well, Brother Iron Mask, you are both civil and military, a hundred times smarter than me, a ruffian, why haven't you thought about these problems? Or have you thought about it, but you can't find a solution? Oh, by the way, you don't have a good doctor at hand, although there are powerful weapons on Jinao Island, but there is no medical and biological related technology, Reyns has all these things, why do you ......?"

Lancelot had a flash of inspiration and suddenly found the answer to his question.

"It's difficult, is it because you can't pull down the iron mask, so you don't want to ask us for help?hahahaha~~ I can't imagine that you wear a mask all day long, covering your face and not seeing anyone, it turns out that you love face so much, wahahaha~~"

laughed arrogantly, and Gong Jin was angry when he heard it, and a rushing anger rushed straight to his head. In the present situation, the two forces have long become mortal enemies, not only in a state of war, but also in a personal vendetta, in such a situation, it is only a shameful thing to ask for help, as at this moment, the monkey laughs at himself unscrupulously......

"Hmph, don't you ......?"

Gong Jin sneered at each other, and before he finished speaking, he heard a strange sound on the other side, as if someone had turned over and fell, and when he raised his eyes, it was Lancelot lying on the ground, his forehead touching the ground deeply, and bowing down to himself.

"I'm sorry for what happened before, please give us a chance, let's help the infected people to do the examination, and save these patients together!"

The fierce rival who just fought to the death suddenly knelt down to worship him, Gong Jin couldn't help but be stunned, he couldn't believe what he saw for a while, and he didn't know how to react.

(He procrastinated, for this reason...... )

※※※

The energy absorption competition between Jinao Island and Titanic Fortress is going on to a stalemate, Ailing and Zhu Yan feel extremely anxious, especially when they see that the space outside the window is disintegrating, their hearts are like ants in a hot pot, and they can only force their composure in front of their subordinates.

As long as there is human nature, there is human nature, and as long as there is human nature, it is difficult to break free from this situation.

This is the comment that Hua Tianxie is hiding in the shadows, Ailing and Zhu Yan naturally have no way of knowing, but if they have the opportunity to hear it, they will definitely be on the same page with this conclusion. However, Hua Tianxie is indeed a lot smarter, not only has he restrained his past arrogance and ignorance, but he even knows that he will not be the only peeping eye in this battle, and in the darkness behind him, there may be a fierce yellow finch hidden.

"Dean-sama!"

"Don't make any noise, don't you see that I'm so anxious now, I'm about to finish?"

"No, Lord Dean! We've received an urgent summons! ”

"What? How is this possible?"

Ailing felt unbelievable at this news, because when the two main cannons were fired at the same time, the energy of the entire space flowed wildly, and the long-distance communication within a radius of hundreds of miles was affected, whether it was the water mirror spell or the radio waves of the primeval demon path, they would all be affected by the turbulent energy. If you want to communicate with Jinao Island, you can barely get connected, but the communication equipment was also destroyed earlier, how can Jixia send an emergency message?

Several soldiers looked panicked and said what they said. When the Yuan Shi Cannon was opened, but it could not complete the absorption procedure for a quarter of an hour, and it was in a state of idling, suddenly several ceiling walls opened, and a few wooden boxes fell, which happened to be picked up by them who were patrolling various districts, and opened it to see, the box was written with an emergency document that was personally opened by the dean, and it was also covered with the jade seal of King Reins, and several people hurriedly ran to tell the dean, and they ran into each other on the way, so they rushed over together.

"It's indeed King Reins' seal, but my brother is ...... How come?"

Looking at the fake seal, Ailing felt very stunned, although the senior brother Lancelot has high martial arts, but he is not good at strategy, such a strategy with hidden tricks is not in line with his style; Miss Cangyuecao has not been able to deal with foreign affairs for several months, and it is impossible for her to secretly instruct, so whose handiwork are these things?

Unexpectedly, Ailing hurriedly opened the letters, only to see that several letters were written with the same words, asking everyone on the ship to use the password "World Conquest" to open the telecommunication circuit and do things according to the instructions entered in advance.

The modification of Titanic No. 1 was personally responsible for Ailing, and now someone actually entered something in advance, and the person who was able to do this, although Ailing didn't know who it was, knew which side it came from, and immediately ordered everyone to do the same.

"Hurry up! We don't have much time, and we don't have much time in this world!"

The password "World Conquest" was responded to, and when the text in the command appeared on the screen, Ailing quickly glanced through the past and immediately understood one thing, that is, when modifying the design of Titanic I, there was always a school of voices insisting that "the main gun must have two to be majestic enough".

If the two main guns are used together, the effect will not change when absorbing energy, and if you want to launch them in full state, you can only fire them in turn; if you insist on firing the two guns at the same time, the result will be a great reduction in power, and the actual combat is very unsatisfactory. At that time, due to the strong demands of the team members and the lack of financial security, they built according to it, but now Ailing knows why.

"But...... This tactic has a fatal flaw, how much energy can the Babel cannon absorb, what is the ballistic trajectory of the light cannon, although it can be calculated through the system, but the calculation will inevitably be wrong, as long as there is a slight gap at that time, we will be finished......"

Ailing's anxiety, no one could respond, the last line of words on the screen, only said "the rest of the technical problems will be solved by the praying mantis", this dumb riddle no one can understand, all the team members can only look at Ailing, waiting for her final instructions.

"The worst-case scenario is to choose between death and defeat......? It's so much better than the end of the world, so let's make a bet!"

Inheriting the courage of the overlord brother, a fearless smile appeared on Ailing's face, and she pointed her finger forward, giving orders to all the subordinates who stared at her.

"Everyone, listen up, pause the Primal Cannon program and start the countdown!"

Amid the applause of all the team members, the countdown sound of electronic countdown also began to play.

"Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven......"

The order given by Ailing in the Titanic Fortress directly affected Zhu Yan in Jinao Island. Zhu Yan, who was staring at the Titanic Fortress hundreds of miles away, was dripping with cold sweat, and didn't know what the end of this duel would be, suddenly felt a strange ominous atmosphere, and then heard his subordinate technicians screaming.

"Director, the enemy's main gun is suspected to be in an obstacle, and the energy absorption is temporarily stopped...... Oh!"

The technician, who was staring at the dashboard, only had time to say "oh". Just as Ailing had estimated before, the main cannons of both sides frantically absorbed the energy in the space, like two bows full of tension, one side relaxed, and the other side was immediately affected, and the Tongtian cannon that was instantly full of energy was fired first, and a huge pillar of blue and white light, the strong light emitted in an instant, made the darkness of heaven and earth eclipsed, and it was difficult to hit the Titanic Fortress.

(Little junior sister...... )

Seeing the launch of the Tongtian cannon, knowing that Ailing could not be spared, Zhu Yan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and he didn't know how to have the face to meet his teacher in the future, and he was sighing to himself, when he suddenly heard the subordinate technicians screaming in shock.

"Director Zhu Yan! The enemy has also opened fire!"

The strong light was still dazzling, but from the sound of the muffled explosion, it could be known that the enemy had also fired the main cannon, but the Tongtian cannon absorbed enough energy and attacked in a perfect state, but the Yuan Shi cannon was a step slower, and the energy was not enough, and the cannon was barely fired in a hurry, and the number of victories and defeats was unknown.

"Don't worry, it's just a dying throe!"

Zhu Yan's understatement turned into a full shock as soon as he finished speaking. In the blue-white bright light, a faint purple light flickered inconspicuously, but no matter how blazing the white light was, it could not swallow and destroy the purple light.

This situation only shows one thing, the enemy calculated the trajectory of the cannon shot, fired the main cannon to intercept, as a result, the energy light pillars of the main cannon on both sides shook head-on, although the cannon was powerful, but the first cannon took advantage of the distance, supplemented by accurate calculations, before the cannon bombarded the Tiedani fortress, successfully intercepted the shelling of Jinao Island.

"Oh no! everyone is ready to take the shock!"

Zhu Yan was the first to realize this, and shouted wildly, and a strong shock wave also rushed across in the next moment. The main guns of the two fortresses faced each other, and for a moment they pushed and stalemate, and the reaction force caused by them turned into a shock wave, turning back and backlashing, destroying the space frantically, and the first to bear the brunt of the two cannon fortresses.

The tremendous impact that transcended the sound and also swallowed up all the sound waves, robbing all of them of their hearing, allowing all destruction to happen in a silent world.

Most of the technicians in the main control room of Jinao Island only heard Zhu Yan shout that it was not good, and before he heard the second half of the sentence, he felt a "boom" in his head, and he suddenly lost his hearing.

Even Zhu Yan, who had the strength of the heavenly position, couldn't hold his body steady in this artillery bombardment, and he tumbled and fell out, his back slammed into the metal wall behind him, and the pain was so painful that he almost thought that his body was disconnected. The only difference between having a Heavenly Strength Protector was that he only felt pain and minor injuries, while the rest of the unfortunate technicians who smashed on the metal wall became a pile of flesh and blood on the spot.

Zhu Yan survived the impact, and because of this, he was able to see a strange scene. In the silent and silent world, the solid alloy walls of Jinao Island disintegrated and scattered one by one as if they had been hit by a tornado, and those solid and heavy alloy plate walls became lighter than a leaf under the counterattack of the shock wave, and they shattered almost instantly, and at the same time flew away, they also rapidly reduced the volume of Jinao Island.

(This kind of thing...... How is it possible? Even if their main guns still have that kind of output, how can they calculate the output and ballistic direction of our shelling? As long as there is a numerical error of 1 in 10 million, they have been completely wiped out, why can they still ...... )

This unsolved question echoed in Zhu Yan's mind repeatedly, and he couldn't think of an answer until the end, he could only be sure that if all this was not luck or coincidence, then the only answer that could explain this question was that the enemy had put something in Jinao Island, which could transmit a lot of information and data, so that the enemy could grasp the information of Jinao Island and make a beautiful blow.

Jinao Island is heavily guarded, is it possible for the Reins to do such a thing?

What the Reins can't do, is there anyone else who can't do it?

There's one person who can do it......

“...... Thunder Pure ...... You great traitor......"
