Chapter 358, Iron-Hearted

What Gu Hang is doing at the moment is all to create more time windows for Team A's actions.

At the heart of their operation, they still have to destroy the Void Shield and the Evil Cannon.

Although, even if these two things are destroyed, the problem of Fino City has not been solved, and soon there will be new evil cannons and void shields, which will be 'born' by Fino City.

But it will take time.

Without the protection of the Void Shield and the counterattack of the Evil Cannon, the Imperial Navy will be able to bring destruction to Fino City before the new Void Shield and Evil Cannons come out.

This is Gu Hang's entire plan.

It stands to reason that if he personally led the team to destroy the Void Shield and the Evil Cannon, it would have been the fastest.

But alas, no.

If he walks away at this moment, I'm afraid that Gwagaga will immediately notice the anomaly in Fino City.

After all, using the magic sword, blocking the two realms and isolating the transmission of information, only he can do it.

He's busy enough to fly now.

The situation of the accident in the central lair of Fino City, the demons and cultists in this space almost know about it.

They are constantly trying to get this message across the subspace.

Originally, this was very simple, just a thought, and the master of this subspace that was integrated with Fino City, the Great Impure Godwaga, was able to sense the thoughts of these lower-level demons, and thus knew the situation.

And what Gu Hang did was to take the magic sword and intercept all these thoughts.

This is a huge amount of work, but fortunately, the exit of information is only here by the 'Roshan' Thomlison who was beheaded by Gu Hang. Gu Hang went here, and all the information had to pass through his hands.

Light blockage, that's not enough. Otherwise, if Gwagaga can't receive a message for half a day and is directly 'disconnected', then he will definitely know that something is wrong right away.

Therefore, Gu Hang will also compile some 'thoughts' to disguise as a normal situation and deceive Gwagga.

This part of the work is also very complicated and tiring.

These 'thoughts' that he weaved were extracted from the existing intercepted parts and transformed.

Some places are not logical, some places seem strange, and some places are not even in line with reality.

After all, with such a large number here, Gu Hang is not an immortal, and he can't be perfect.

But the Great Impure are not immortals—oh, it may be, but it's clearly a long way from being omniscient.

It is impossible for that big demon to discern and listen to all the information seriously all the time. In addition, whether it is a demon or a cultist who has been eroded by the whispers of subspace, their brains are not very clear, and it is normal to have some strange and illogical content.

Gu Hang worked hard to maintain the balance between them.

Gwagaga will eventually find out, and he's just putting this time back as far back as he can.

It's not easy, not to mention, there's something that's constantly interfering with him.

That's Tom Lison.

That is, before that, he used a thunder spear to flatten the 'Roshan'.

That guy, of course, is still dead.

Thomleson is a powerful sorcerer at heart, and his suzerain is the Great Demon of Godwaga, with a twisted but very strong soul. The mutation of its physical body is caused by the erosion of subspace, but it is only an appearance.

Under Gu Hang's thunder, his body was completely destroyed, and his soul was torn into countless pieces.

It's definitely not alive in every sense of the word

But it was precisely because Gu Hang took his place, holding a magic sword, blocking this place, that Thomleson's broken soul fragments could not be dissipated, and they surrounded Gu Hang.

If it was a normal situation, Gu Hang would have sent these fragments away, but now, most of his energy is on intercepting information and fabricating information, and he can't pull it out.

Fortunately, this impact is not critical.

It's just that from time to time, there will be some illusions in front of his eyes.

These visions are basically the most impressive of some of Thomleson's past life experiences.

There is a scene where when Thomlison was young, he watched his father being beaten to death in the street.

That year, there were some problems with the imperial tax to be paid in Fino City, the human tax was enough, and the material tax was less, so the various factories stopped paying food salaries, saying that the taxes were paid first, and the employees owed them, and they would make up later.

The Thomlison family, his father, his mother, his nine-year-old and his five-year-old sister, were unpaid — he and his sister were doing child labor.

One owe, one month.

The people in Xiachao District of Fino City are struggling with hunger, and if they stop their hands and mouths, they will starve to death if they stop paying for one month. So, there was no way, he went with his father to steal, and when he was caught, his father stopped people and told him to run, and he was beaten to death.

Hiding in the corner, he carved this scene deeply into his mind.

Soon after, his mother died as well—giving food to him and his sister, starved to death.

In the second act, there is a naked corpse.

It was his sister, who had been brought up since childhood, and at the age of seventeen, he did not listen to his persuasion and followed a man from the middle district. A month later, the naked body was left on the street, and after the guards found out the identity of the body, they informed him to collect it.

In the third scene, he says goodbye to his family.

That year, Thomleeson was twenty-seven years old, and the Imperial Taxes came to his head. His life has just improved, he has started a family with his wife, the eldest son is three years old, and the youngest daughter has just been born. He himself worked hard and got a promotion. But the imperial tax is supreme, and he can only follow.

He could only console himself that if he paid the imperial tax, then his family would be exempt from a part of the tax in the future; You can also get a subsidy.

In the fourth scene, he is lying in a field hospital.

At that time, he was already an officer. After being levied the imperial tax, he got on the starship and was sent to the Jinguan Star District to be incorporated into a logistics slave team of the Astral Army, and after 29 years of war, he first became a regular in the battlefield, and then made many meritorious contributions and was promoted to an officer. At the same time, he also spent half of his life from youth to old age on the battlefield against the green-skinned orcs.

Compared with the comrades-in-arms around him who have changed one stubble after another, he has not died for 29 years, and he can be regarded as lucky. But today, his luck has come to an end, he lost a leg and an arm on the battlefield.

But he was hard enough to be saved in a field hospital.

His exploits and medals gave him the opportunity to choose - turn back to the rear on the spot and spend the rest of his life in the new colony, or return home.

He chose the latter.

Traveling on a supply ship, he was one of the very few people who could return home. He has many medals that he has worked so hard for, the most outstanding of which is a Warrior's Medal, which is still very high in gold.

After returning to his hometown, at his request, he was placed in a government position in his hometown of Fino. And the first time he came back, he was looking for his family.

This is the fifth act, and it's still a naked corpse, just an old photograph.

It was his youngest daughter, who was found dead in the streets at the age of seventeen, said to have been attacked by a mob, and who looked almost exactly like her aunt. The photograph is the case information kept by the police force at that time.

In the twenty-second year after his departure from Koroga, his eldest son was taxed as an imperial tax, and only three years later a death notice was sent back. His wife, who had been ill from years of hard work and the death of his loved ones, died of depression two years ago.

All this made him collapse.

He never had any affection for the so-called Empire, and his young family was shattered by the Imperial Tax; His own family, too, was shattered by imperial taxes. After joining the army, he once believed the propaganda of the political commissar and the chaplain of the army, believing that the emperor was supreme and protected mankind; He thinks that he is fighting for the empire and for all mankind, and that he is sacrificing his life for a higher level and greater good, and he has no regrets about it.

But after returning to his hometown, that sense of disillusionment made him unable to get out at all.

This is the sixth scene: he smashes his medal of valor. It was also from this moment that he was able to hear the affectionate call of his loving father.

The lies of the puppet emperor and the corrupt and filthy system of the empire all made him feel disgusted.

He threw himself into the Holy Father, and as a low-level official, he began to secretly preach and establish the Cult of Eternal Life.

He sincerely believes that Koroga needs to change, and it must not go on like this, and the people at the bottom will never have peace.

He also sincerely believes that it is a very beautiful thing to drive out the faith of the puppet emperor, dissolve the ruling system of the empire, and let all people enter the warm, eternal and immortal embrace of a loving father.

He worked tirelessly to carry out this business for fifty years.

And now, his career is finally coming to fruition.

But he ran into Gu Hang, the terminator.

……

Thomlison's life does seem miserable.

But Gu Hang is hard-hearted in this matter.

Allowing many illusions to flicker in front of him, he did not have the slightest change in mentality.

First of all, Thom Leeson's experience is not classic or representative in Koroga. It's not because he's not miserable enough, but because he's actually lucky.

Both parents died, and my sister died tragically, which was very miserable, but many people in Koroga have experienced this, and there are many more miserable ones. Moreover, most of them will not be able to get married, have children, be promoted and raise their salaries after him.

99.99% of the population who were paid as imperial taxes did not make it back alive. Not only did he live 29 years in the war, becoming an officer, but he also retired alive and returned to his hometown...... This is already a lot of luck.

His wife died in her fifties, long past the average life expectancy of 36 years for Coroga; There is nothing to say about his daughter's tragic death; The son was taxed, and Koroga was probably expropriated 7-800 million people every two years, so it is not surprising that he was levied on his head.

Even if he wants to shout miserable, then Koroga will be miserable.

But, then again, if a person with very good luck is mixed up like this, what should a person with normal luck look like?

It's no wonder that the Immortal Sect has been able to grow and grow, and it's no wonder that there are dozens of nests in Koroga, and the bottom of each nest has been in a collective riot every now and then, and the plague spreads rapidly.

If Gu Hang, who had crossed over, had been in such an environment from the beginning, he would definitely be full of thoughts about rebellion.

The individual tragedy is very moving, but for a ruler like Gu Hang, he can see that what is reflected behind this is a systemic problem.

He'll solve Koroga's problems, which may be even tougher than the current war, but he's confident that he has a solution, but everything will need to wait until Koroga's demonic invasion disaster has largely stabilized.

Make sure that the entire planet doesn't become a devil's cave, and that hundreds of millions of people don't become the walking dead before you can say anything else.

As for Thomlison's soul fragments, the many illusions that were generated in front of Gu Hang's eyes seemed to him to be just a little inconsequential whisper left by a madman who had been crushed by reality.

Gu Hang would not let it become a factor that hindered him from completing his career of saving Koroga.

He didn't have the skills to deal with these illusions, and he didn't need to. He just watched indifferently, not focusing on it at all, wholeheartedly blocking the transmission of information, and weaving false information to deceive Gwagga

But...... It was as if Gwagaga had become suspicious.

……

"We have lost seven fighters and have completed the task of attracting the defenders."

Lacroxia's voice reached Martins' ears through encrypted and reliable communication.

Later, Lady Gruet also sent a message from her side.

"My sisters and I are already in place."

"Okay." After replying individually, Martins took a deep breath and ordered, "All charge!" ”

Behind him, three War Dog-level Titans, separated by a certain distance from each other, broke out of their silence and began to run forward at full speed.

The fifteen-meter-tall 'War Dog' almost reached the top of the flesh lair with its head.

Nine knight mechs followed.

Around these behemoths, hundreds of immortal birds, holy lilies, and elite warriors of the Fangs Camp were scattered among them.

In front of them was a wall of flesh and blood.

Bombs had already been planted on it and blasted the walls open. In the midst of the flying flesh, three Titans rushed over. A few remnants of the wall could not stop the impact of the Titan, leaving three large craters.

And behind this wall, there are a large number of demons. They turned their backs to the direction the Titans were coming from, their attention almost entirely drawn to the target ahead of them that was engaged in a fierce firefight.

A sudden attack came from behind, catching them off guard.

Many demons turn around, and one by one the ghosts are in danger - demons are also afraid.

There is no brainless plague stitching corpses and rotten meat monsters, but they are stunned for a moment: why is the wall behind broken? What are these three iron lumps that rushed in bigger than themselves?

And things with brains, such as plague bearers and plague wizards, are terrified.

They knew it was going to kill them.

But what can they do?

Death only.

The Titan fired.

The Hellfire missile launch nest on their shoulders fired half a round of missiles in an instant. 18 Hellfire missiles enveloped a large area in front of you.

The large-yield Hellfire missile has extremely strong destructive power, and the damage effect is exaggerated. All targets in the central area of the explosion will be destroyed by the shock wave of the explosion and high temperature and pressure. At the same time, with the explosion, the hot melt powder splattered and burned violently, and any material that was touched, even a little bit, would quickly burn out a huge crater.

If it's a human-sized thing, it will just burn down; Even for a few rotten meat giant beasts and plague giant toads, they were contaminated too much, and they were melted everywhere.

With their strong vitality, they may not be burned to death immediately for a while, but the hot melt dust that has no open flame but can release extremely high temperature for a long time, like a miniature hot melt bomb, will burn them up sooner or later.

In this area, 18 Hellfire missiles form a purgatory-like scene.

And the three war dogs are still not so easy to give up.

In addition to the missile nest in the back, the war dog has two main guns at the waist - or on either side of the head. One is a hot melt cannon and the other is a kinetic cannon.

The three Titans kept moving forward while maintaining a firing rhythm.

Whether it is a large-caliber kinetic heavy cannon or a hot melt cannon, one by one, those large monsters in the fringe area bombarded by the Hellfire missiles have suffered one by one.

It's just that the way to die is different.

Shattered by the passive bombardment, melted into a field of red, flowing wreckage by the hot melt bombardment, until it finally cooled to gray black.

Suddenly attacking from behind, the three Titans were in full swing, and suddenly disintegrated the resistance of these demons.

Then, as the Titans broke into the big hole, nine knight mechs followed, and more elite infantry units also rushed in.

The knight mecha above eight meters is certainly not as fierce as the Titan's firepower, but it is still not to be underestimated; Even the undead birds and fangs can inflict devastating blows on some regular-sized monsters with their blaster guns in their hands.

They chased the demons in front of them and chased and beat them fiercely.

On the other side, a team of dozens of people led by Lacroxia to attract the attention of the enemy also attacked.

The surviving demons, who had lost their battle formation and the will to fight, began to crumble.

The human army drove the demons and strode towards their final destination, the demonic engine that supported the existence of the Void Shield.

Everything was so smooth that Martins didn't think it was time for Miss Gruet to lead an additional detachment as an alternative.

The front is about to go in, and the demon engine is already close at hand.

As long as it enters the firing realm, three Titans, heavy artillery in their hands, and one round of fire coverage are enough to paralyze it, and two more rounds will have no possibility of repair.

The Void Shield Generator can't create a Void Shield to protect itself, and there is no need for this under normal circumstances.

In fact, they are there now.

It was an enclosed space, surrounded by a wall of flesh and blood. But inside, there is still a steady stream of monsters popping out, as if they are squeezed out of the flesh.

And the demons who were killed by them before have also regrouped in this place.

These chaotic monsters are certainly not particularly orderly creatures. There will always be a similar situation in the demon's army, which will be beaten and scattered, either running or going up and killing without a brain.

And to organize them, you need a strong enough individual.

Now, it seems that there is such an individual.

Martins saw a pus-covered monster about two and a half meters tall and shouting something. The demons around him seemed to be very afraid of him, and did not dare to disobey his orders. The monsters that squeezed out of the walls of flesh behind them were undoubtedly all following their orders.

It's a head.

Now that the judgment has been made, Martins has made a move.

With his left arm raised, the Heavy Explosive Minigun slammed the metal storm towards the monster.

At the same time, his orders were transmitted to several knight mechs. The machine guns they were equipped with, along with the fire of the Martins, covered the past.

The three war dogs continued to move forward as planned, and one of them also sent a hot molten cannon towards that position.

This is an absolutely overflowing fire bombardment, nothing can ...... Well?

Among the dead and wounded everywhere, a yellow-green figure rushed out.

It's that monster.

And at this moment, in its hand, it holds a rusty sword.

Mattenston's time felt bad.

He realized what it was—Chaos Blade!

This is a powerful demon that evolved from the great grace of the evil god. It is said that if it grows up again, it will become a great demon, the plague demon, and then it will be a great impurity.

And monsters of this level have one of the most significant characteristics: the law of twisting.

Where subspace forces dominate, this powerful demon possesses a special ability. Under its will, physics, science, and even reason and mind are distorted.

It ignores the power of technology and ignores the damage of physics. Whether it's bullets or artillery fire, it's not completely useless, but the damage will be greatly reduced.

There are only two things that can really deal a fatal blow to it.

First, psionic energy.

But the Governor is not here.

The second is will.

And the embodiment of this lies in the close combat. With a sword, with a heavy fist, carrying the fiery will of a warrior, defeat it, and you can kill it.

Otherwise, it will turn into a terrible killing machine that no one can stop.

But the nearest War Dog Titan, who was close to it, didn't understand this.

The secondary cannon mounted on his arm fired fiercely at this little monster that dared to charge at him, and the metal storm instantly tore through the air.

However, the Chaos Front's footsteps only stopped for a moment. The large-caliber cannon that was normally enough to wipe out a fleshy body of this size was like tickling, not to mention that most of the ammunition was deflected aside by a strange force and missed at all.

At the same time, the Nurgle Blade had come to the Titan's feet.

The Titan's energy shield flickered slightly, and the blade was let in.

The controllers of the Wardog Titan are already feeling bad. The massive war machine bent down and swept with a heavy fist, but was dodged by the plague front.

Then, the great sword in his hand slashed at the ankle of the war dog titan.

With Martins' eyesight, he could clearly and distinctly see that the steel at the ankle of the War Dog Titan that should have been incomparably tough was quickly stained with rust in an instant, as if it had been devastated by countless years, became fragile, and then was cut off by the great sword.

A huge titan, its body tilting with a bang.
