Chapter 282: The Fire Falls from the Sky (6200, 2/2, ask for a monthly pass!) )
Not only the main battlefield located in the Golden Plains, but also the major towns of Nanling, which have fallen into a state of martial law, have also ushered in many demonic beast attacks that have fallen into madness.
If even a town is breached by a monster and inflicts heavy casualties, the cursed soil will spread there - and the demon army will be given an accurate coordinate to jump directly from the Golden Plains.
But this kind of jump can't be done at will, if the people of Nanling themselves deliberately abandon a town and induce the demon army to enter the trap, they can't immediately return to the virtual realm to avoid the artillery fire after jumping...... Some of the defenders in the western frontier sacrificed themselves to trick the demon army into a trap, causing considerable success.
Therefore, the frontal battlefield must not be abandoned, the demon army needs to attract the troops of the South Ridge to the front line, and then use various means to create jump points in the rear and carry out leapfrog strikes.
But the unmanned troops responded at this moment - the unmanned armor may still have some flaws in the frontal enemy, but in the extremely familiar Nanling interior, it is enough to do the work of 'clearing the monsters' and 'suppressing riots'.
Even, with Xiou's precise manipulation technology, she can even achieve the micro-manipulation ability of 'the second group of the southwest formation moves 15 meters to the left' and 'the angle of the second firepower armor of the northern formation is adjusted by 15 degrees'.
Not only that—when the demons wanted to attack the unarmored ones, she could even control the drones and armor around her at the same time to retreat.
Attacking while moving, hundreds of drones each scattered to avoid the attack, and those who were not attacked continued to attack, this kind of outrageous thing can actually happen, and only a real dragon can do it.
No, maybe that's what the real dragon did? No one said that the real dragon could only go to the front line by himself - as an elite of civilization, it is only natural that the real dragon is proficient in warfare!
However, Theo's dragon soul computing power is not as good as Terra's heart.
Focusing on the operation of UAVs and armor, other aspects are bound to be lacking.
For a moment, the artillery bombardment of the Nineteenth Legion was temporarily stopped, as they could not track the Demon Legion in constant action in real time and cover the real-world coordinates corresponding to their Limbo locations with firepower.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Demon Legion also began to march with all its might, rushing straight in the direction of the Nineteenth Legion, vowing to destroy this firepower point that could pose a threat to them.
Without the containment of the Giants of Light and the Legion's heavy artillery, the speed of the demon's march was extremely fast, especially since they were directly divided into ten different troops, and they raided in different directions under the leadership of their respective officers, and the firepower of the Nineteenth Legion could not track this complex movement trajectory in real time without the support of artificial intelligence.
Under the leadership of the demon officer, every inferior demon, beast demon and demonized demonic beast army has thousands of combat units, even the weakest demonized demonic beast has the strength close to the first energy level, the vast majority of Nanling soldiers do not have this strength, each of their troops can capture the city and cause massacre.
On the Nanling side, the only thing that can be relied on is equipment and fortifications.
Just on the southern edge of the Golden Plains, concrete fortifications have risen in just ten days, forming an amazing Nanling Great Wall, a key node of the Great Wall is a large number of fortifications and automatic fire nodes.
The first time these fortifications came into play was to engage in an all-out confrontation with the demons.
Entering the distance of hand-to-hand combat, the ability of demons to transfer into the Void to avoid firepower has also been weakened, because they need to be guided in place for a second or more before they can enter the Void, and they will also have stiffness when they emerge from the Void, which is still blessed by the cursed soil, if there is no cursed soil, they have to stand in place and be stunned for more than ten seconds or even a minute or two to do it.
In the process, the defenders, who had already been prepared, could destroy their bodies in an instant with firepower.
It's time to hit hard.
With the hum of steel, when the demons and demonic beasts had already rushed into the range of the white-knuckle battle, the elite of the Nineteenth Legion, which had completed the mechanized modification, attacked, and these little giants wearing metal armor built a silver defense line for a while, blocking the attack of the demons like a tide.
Then, there was a terrible fight.
With the power of exoskeleton armor, elite human soldiers can kick those usually feared monsters out with a single kick, even if they are inferior demons, they can cooperate with each other to repel them, and even use close-range hot melt guns and magnetic storm generators to 'expel them' from the material world.
But it's not the Pioneers that are most terrifying: the real killers are the snipers who are guided by the Dragon's Soul's version of Terra's Heart.
In the general perception, a sniper's shot is a life, which is actually an exaggeration, even the most professional sniper cannot guarantee that he will hit on the battlefield, and the firing speed is extremely slow, and you need to wait for the opportunity to shoot your target accurately.
But now, from now on, the era of snipers has changed - with tiny beams of high heat piercing the air, hundreds of pillars of light crisscrossing the battlefield and forming a vast web of death.
In this net, every monster that was hit was killed on the spot, and every inferior demon that was targeted suffered a serious blow, and this terrifying precision was simply a disaster for the enemies of the war.
What's more, these snipers are designed to shoot extremely fast, they just need to aim their 'boxes' at the enemy in front of them, and then wait until the lock is complete to fire, and they are automated from start to finish, as long as they are stable, the attack is guaranteed to hit!
After just three rounds of fire, the demon army that had been about to storm the fortification wall left behind a crowd of corpses and dissipated demonic smoke.
But the blow to the striker immediately attracted the attention of the demonic officers, who were confronting the Nineteenth Legion's Ascendants just now and were not directly involved in the battle, but now, the battle situation was unfavorable, so they made up their minds and let out a call.
Then, in the real world, with a huge phantom manifesting from the pitch-black mist, twenty or thirty meters high, like a beast and demon like a siege machine, appeared on the front line.
These forms resemble giant bulls, giant bears, and all kinds of hideous monsters, but they are nearly ten times larger, and the terrifying beasts and demons raise their heads and raise their heads to the sky, and the terrifying psionic energy impact begins to spread in all directions, and the 'fear aura' and 'fearless aura' are blessed on both sides at the same time.
Then the beasts began to charge!
However, the demonized demonic beasts and inferior demons were not affected by these forces, and in the mechanized troops, the soldiers loaded with the 'information filtering equipment' were not greatly affected, but the ordinary soldiers of the Nineteenth Army who were not armed by mechanization suddenly fell into uncontrollable panic and gaffes.
Some of them peed their pants, some of them dropped their weapons as if they were insane, and some of them turned their guns on their other teammates, as if they thought they were the enemy, and opened fire!
The fire in the rear became sparse in an instant, and some people even detonated the ammunition depot next to them for some reason under extreme tension.
Rumble!
! A huge ball of flames exploded in the rear of the defensive line, demoralizing the Nineteenth Legion, and the beasts and demons took advantage of the situation to smash the defensive fortress and firepower network, creating a gap for the demon army to break through.
No, not for some reason.
Because after the elite demon troops had already infiltrated the battle array, they began to trick the imperial soldiers into killing each other!
For a moment, the defensive line that could still be supported collapsed in an instant, the Imperials left behind a large number of corpses, and the snipers also encountered the precise point kills of the flying demon elites, and only a small half of them quickly broke away under the automatic retreat procedure of the exoskeleton armor.
The tide has turned.
As soon as the demon officers and beast demons entered the battlefield, the battle situation immediately became sinister.
This is an army that cannot be stopped by the defense line at all, they can change the enemy's thinking at will, create fear and despair, invade behind enemy lines and destroy the enemy's logistics, this is the future of the Terra world must develop the 'extraordinary army' technology, in the face of them, any army in the ordinary sense will be easily wiped out.
But the Nanling side is not without a backhand.
In those areas where the demon army was heavily infested, unarmored troops appeared with a rudimentary appearance that had not yet polished their outer armor shells.
The moment they appeared, they would bring a large number of terrifying fire support, and after stabilizing the situation, they would not hesitate to look for elite demons to explode themselves, without wasting any time.
While they couldn't prevent the beasts from destroying the walls and leveling the small fortresses, they did give time for the Imperial legions to retreat.
Behind them, a second line of defense formed by the fully mechanized troops of Silver Peak was waiting for them, and they were about to engage in a head-to-head confrontation with the demonic siege army led by the beast demons.
And the battlefield is much more than that.
In the distance, the elite troops of the Silver Peak Leader led by Qing Chao, 'Steel Feather', after launching a long-distance attack, directly hit the beast and demon hatchery behind the Demon Legion, a sea of flesh and blood.
Here, there is also a beast demon that is being nurtured and hatched - the demonic beasts and demons that died on the front line, after returning to the limbo, will not wait for a long time to turn back into inferior demons, but will be directly thrown into the hatching pool as raw materials as raw materials for beasts and demons.
And those demonic beasts with weak combat power will naturally not be used as combat power, but will become the biological substrate of beasts and demons.
And after these beasts and demons are hatched, they will escape into the virtual realm, and then rush from the virtual realm to the battlefield and continue to fight.
Of course, as an extremely important place, there are also a group of elite inferior demon guards and demon officers patrolling around the beast and demon hatching pool...... It's just that even the demon army is converted by humans, and their thinking is still limited to fighting against artillery and the enemy's cavalry rapid raids.
But it's like the era of giant ships and cannons was replaced by aircraft carriers...... Yinfeng Ling has also moved towards a new era in this regard.
After arriving at the designated location, Qingchao and the others began to release a large number of drones in place - in a moment, more than three hundred drones soared into the air like a swarm of bees, and then swooped towards the beast and demon hatching pool!
But this is not the end, every demon officer and inferior demon with anti-air ability is anti-aircraft firepower, so without hesitation, after releasing the drone he carried, Qingchao drew his sword and led the team forward to engage the demon defenders who had already discovered them!
For a while, the sound of swords and swords resonated in the plain area, and Qingchao fought the five-headed demon officer alone with his own strength, and he did not fall behind!
"Your swordsmanship, even one percent of the boss is not as good!"
He laughed and swung his sword to push a demon back, and then cut off the head of a demonic beast, purple and blue blood splattering on the armor, making the silver shell even more hideous.
Recently, in addition to practicing meditation, Qingchao is practicing swords, and the object of sword training is the 'swordsman Yin Eun' simulated by Terra's heart!
In the face of Yin Eun, a simulated AI that always uses perfect tactics, an unpredictable prophet, and no mistakes in every action, Qingchao has been defeated again and again, and has learned a trace of the essence of true perfect swordsmanship!
Just like the chess players who played chess with Xiou later improved their chess skills, this is the opportunity of Qingchao!
And in the future, all the swordsmen and cultivators of the Silver Peak Collar will be able to simulate battles with AI with fixed routines, and even after collecting enough data, it is not impossible to simulate demons - although it is impossible to truly simulate extraordinary strength, but for pure swordsmanship, fighting skills, and combat experience, it has been greatly improved.
Compared with those unknown drones, the demon defenders naturally valued these powerful elite swordsman groups in front of them more, but as everyone knows, the moment their attention shifted, every swooping drone lit up with a dazzling magnetic storm brilliance.
For a while, hundreds of drones that turned themselves into plasma bombs fell like waterfalls, and hundreds of plasma pillars flashed between the heavens and the earth like thunderstorms, and every flicker, they would bombard a large gap in the beast and demon hatching pool, and those half-formed beasts and demons died tragically in the wail, and once again turned into black fog and dissipated.
At its peak, the plasma network even turned into a sea of thunder, and all the flesh nests were incinerated into black charcoal or pitch-black liquid like asphalt.
At present, the overall situation is still a stalemate, with both sides having their own wins and losses.
But the strategic direction is that the demon army is more advantageous.
Although the troops led by Silver Peak and the troops retreated from the Nineteenth Legion had reorganized the second line of defense, the Demon Legion had indeed broken the blockade of the Golden Plains and entered the interior of the South Ridge, and the Nineteenth Legion had also lost considerable combat strength.
Nauman City, the capital of Southridge, was extremely close to the second line of defense, and even a few bad demons had teleported to the edge of the city, although they were shot down by the defenders, but this was enough to prove that it was almost impossible for the formed army of cursed earth and demons to be held by several lines.
But even so, the Demon Legion was unable to expand its advantage - when their Warcraft troops wanted to harvest the population of the surrounding ordinary villages and towns and continue to expand the cursed land, they found that all the villages and towns in the South Ridge had become no man's land, and everyone was absorbed into the big city with strong defenses.
After all, unlike the knight lords and marginal nobles in the Golden Plains, Yin En and the Marquis of Batun are completely in control of all the nobles and village operations in the South Ridge - even if someone doesn't want to leave their hometown, the gendarmerie will forcibly take them in, but they won't tell you about human rights and free choice.
It's just that, in the same way, as the Nineteenth Legion retreated, most of the heavy firepower was destroyed, and the demons in the South Ridge did not have to be trapped in the virtual realm, but could move freely in the real world and try to attack the city.
However, unlike other cities in the West, the citizens of Southridge would not have any fear even if they saw the giant demon flapping its wings and spinning over the city.
On the contrary, even ordinary people, as long as they have a weapon in their hands, will chant feverishly and shoot into the sky.
This unspreading fear also curbed the spread of the cursed soil.
With a fanatical sense of war and religious propaganda, even demons cannot easily invade.
When the war reaches this point, it can only be seen which of the troops on both sides will break up first, or whether the strong of both sides will win or lose.
And at this time, the battlefield was gradually approaching, and the people of Nanling, who were still watching the live broadcast of the battlefield, once again gave birth to the second wave of 'prayer' power.
The first time Yin Eun used a false image to catalyze it was just an introduction that gave the people of Nanling a sense of identity, and now, as the 19th Army Corps, which had been stationed in Nanling for a long time, retreated to the second line of defense, the real 'sense of crisis' and 'fear of dying' began to emerge.
It's just that, under Yin Eun's long-term propaganda, this fear did not last long, and it was converted into a kind of hope that the South Ridge army would fight back.
A force that reunites the giants of light once again, roaring in the Shroud and striking at the demon army!
[Repeat the old trick! 】
At this moment, Knell, who was fighting with Yin En in the real world, sneered: [Now without the firepower of the Nineteenth Legion, and without the support of the super-heavy artillery of Yin Sa's territory, what are you going to do to destroy our Demon Legion!] 】
And with his words, as the light in the Void suddenly lit up, a large amount of black mist transformed from the Void to reality - the demon army that had been repaired in the Void had all been transferred from the Void to the real world, and they were preparing to attack the second line of defense with all their might.
The Giant of Light has no way to penetrate the Void and Reality with a single blow, and without heavy firepower, the demons can easily transfer to the real world and wait until the Giant's strong period is over!
"A full set of demonic tactics, this is definitely not something that can be developed in the Flying Flame Land."
But Yin Eun was talking about something completely unrelated to war at the moment: "Sure enough, you got the fire of the abyss—you got the entire database of an alien demon civilization, and you analyzed it and absorbed it for your own use. ”
"It's a demonic dragon, right? That monster you are hiding in the deepest part of the Western Realm is the Abyss Demon Dragon? He was sure.
Death Knell was slightly stunned, then laughed and charged towards Yin En: [You actually know? Sure enough, did she succeed in the birth of the future? This war is really the most uncomfortable to fight, it turns out that the prophet can even know your hole cards early]
[But this time, you don't need her to show up at all, and you will be defeated by me!] 】
"Wrong."
And the fairy Yin En swung his sword, forced Deathstroke back, and flew back lightly, dodging the sonic cluster cannon that Deathstroke secretly erupted.
He smiled and said, "Why do you think I want to hold you back, and why do you want to build two defense lines that are obviously impossible to stop the demons, forcing you to concentrate your main forces around the defense line?" ”
"I'm waiting for space-based weapons to be targeted, what are you waiting for?"
[What? At this moment, Deathknell's heart was stunned, and then, with the blessing of the cursed earth, his powerful telepathic ability made him perceive an extremely terrifying crisis.
A...... Unstoppable, inescapable, no matter where you are located in the Golden Plains, you will not escape the crisis of the blow!
[Oops! 】
At this moment, Knell's eyes widened and he raised his head to look at the sky.
Ten minutes ago, when Yin En mobilized the power of Terra's Heart and turned on his full force form to engage him, the attack in the sky had already begun.
It takes about fifteen minutes to fall from the orbit of the Terra satellite to the surface, and these fifteen minutes need to ensure that the enemy is in the same position and does not move, the enemy needs to be unable to move to the Limpur, and the enemy does not even have time to perceive the danger coming.
Therefore, in these fifteen minutes, the demon army fell into the most fierce offensive and defensive battle of the second defense line of the South Ridge, and when they noticed that the silver peak army and the nineteenth legion of the second defense line were hiding in underground bunkers, and they were fighting with some unmanned armor and drones, they had no time to retreat.
And in the Void, Adalbert, who made the right shot, was pressuring all the demons to withdraw from the Void - compared to the unknown danger in the sky, it was indeed the Giant of Light's current heavy punch that was a little more terrifying.
[The problem of slow update of new chapters has finally been solved on the app that can change the source, download it here.]
Up to now, seventy percent of the demon army was located in the middle of the first and second defense lines of the South Ridge...... An empty no-man's land without any cover!
And it was at this time that they saw the stars!
Everyone saw the stars.
Nanling, the Sacred Mountain of Steel, is building a second super-giant magnetic storm tower, and the Cliff Elder who is preparing to fight the demons after that is possible stares at the hundreds of dense flame stars that suddenly light up at the top of the sky dome, these stars drag their long tails, one after another, and even converge into a whole whole.
"The fire fell from the top of the firmament...... Judgment comes. ”
The priest of the dragon god in the past, and now the archbishop of the mountain people of the Chongling Sect, the Elder of Manya silently recited the prophecy that Yin En had announced to everyone before, but found that everyone around him, even his grandson, was on one knee and prayed sincerely to the flame of extinction that fell from the sky.
"It seems that the prophecy of the prophet has been fulfilled." He stared at the pitch-black virtual realm in the distance, and the old man who had reached the third energy level smiled: "Then, it's time to go." ”
"Look. Cormitt, my child ......"
Port Harrison, at the top of the Viscount's Palace, Viscount Grant held his one-year-old child in his arms, and looked at the heavenly fire in the distance with emotion: "This is the power that your teacher can call on...... A true prophet, a true genius, far beyond the existence of your father. ”
"And now, I'm going to fight for your future capital."
Leaving the dark blue hair of Cormitt, who had fully inherited the blood of the Abyssal Lizard Whale, into the hands of his mother, Viscount Grant set off in the aether armament.
And his strength ...... It's far more than it used to be!
Whether it was Nauman City or Xiahui City, whether it was Harrison Port or Agate Plain, whether it was the mountain people or the Imperials, everyone saw the continuous fire that fell from the top of the heavenly dome.
No need for a live stream, no need for a screen, just look up and see, just as the prophet had predicted - a near-endless stream of meteors dragging the red line of fire and filling the entire sky, and they continued to descend until ......
Fall to Earth!
