On the third day after the battle of the lord's position, the twelfth day of the battle on the Maginot Line, Murphy, who had just taken a break from the aftermath of the battle, had just taken a break from the aftermath of the battle, which could never be dealt with, in his dilapidated but victorious positional headquarters.

It was an invitation from the Crimean fortress.

Signed by General Baldwin himself, there is also the emblem of the Church of the Winter Wolf and the seal of the Cardinal Archbishop of the Kakhovka region.

Just by looking at the specifications of the letter, you knew that it meant a lot, and after opening it and reading a few sentences, Murphy frowned, who had already packed his bags and was ready to go on a trip.

"What's going on with these Nords?"

He complained to Adele beside him:

"Why should they invite other commanders on the battlefield to watch the ceremony when they are holding a great purification ceremony? This untimely sense of ritual is a bit too much, isn't it? Or do they have other plans? ”

"It is said that the Nords were inspired by the actions of the lord's position to cleanse the evil gods of evil with the power of the gods, and they intend to do the same, and I have received the exact news that after this purification ceremony, the defenders of the Crimean fortress will launch a major counterattack against the gnolls.

General Baldwin wanted to invite the other commanders to witness the counteroffensive and boost the morale of the soldiers there who had been having a bad time lately. ”

Adele, who seems very reliable at all times, explains:

"Actually, this letter was sent to you as a pretext, and you saw that the letter made it very clear that you were invited to command the immortal spirits of Transnsia. General Baldwin apparently hoped that in the great counteroffensive of his army, he would be assisted by the Gentile players who had made a big difference in the battle of the lord's position.

But the old-school military man didn't say it straight. ”

"Well, it's really subtle, and you have to bend a few times to ask for help, and this formalistic style is really going to kill people. However, considering that the Crimean Fortress has been under siege by Xu Gesen's troops recently, I can basically understand General Baldwin's needs and pressures.

But sadly, I have another thing to do that I can't put off any longer. ”

Murphy placed the invitation on the table and instructed Adele:

"Tracey and Kudell will lead the Loyal Hymn and Hammer Scythe players to watch the ceremony on my behalf, it's not too early, it's time for me to go.

After all, the 100,000 people of Cadman City have been waiting in the astral plane for nine months to be saved by the lord, and there is no reason for them to continue waiting. ”

"Okay."

Adele nodded, and summoned a subordinate of the Shadow Intelligence Bureau to forward the invitation to Archduke Tris, and Murphy also gave the players in the position the task of going to the Krimu Fortress to witness the Nord purification ceremony.

After doing all this, he took Adele to Wolfsburg, from where he entered the Swamp Forbidden Lands and then to the R-9 base through the Teleportation Network of the Land of Creation.

Due to the decisive battle of the Maginot Line, the players stationed here have already left for the battlefield, with some vampires of Bonnie's Grand Guard stationed here, and the rest are researchers.

When Murphy arrived, Monica, an amnesiac sentinel who hadn't seen her for more than half a month, was waiting in front of the teleportation array with her two apprentices, Old Flywheel and Little Sharon, along with Sister Cement, who had already been persuaded to turn herself into a blood vampire, and Pol, the goatman villain star sorcerer who always behaved very humble.

This is the next member to assist Murphy in completing the Cadman City rescue.

"Are all the preparations done?"

Murphy didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly:

"How is the renovation of the energy chamber at the base going? How are the coordinates of the astral map calculated? ”

"The energy chamber renovation has been completed."

Monica is still dressed in the classics, although she has changed into an engineer outfit that matches the style of this era, but the cool sentry maintenance belt is still hanging around her waist, like a cool and sassy female mechanic, she replied confidently:

"I replaced the energy valve and made overload protection, and now the genesis energy of the R-9 base can be changed according to the frequency of your special power release, but after the calculation of the residual energy, this time after the subspace rift is sealed, the remaining energy of the base will enter the danger threshold.

You'll have to find a special type of battery rod for the energy pod from somewhere else, otherwise many of the base's basic functions will be shut down due to lack of energy. ”

"That thing just sounds rare, so, where?"

Murphy asked, and Monica immediately replied:

"I don't know exactly where the Creations are in this era, but I guess there must be a lot of spare energy bars in the Creation Engines of the Origins."

"Well, I see, you want to come with me to the place where a lot of creation relics have been inherited in this era, no problem, as long as the project we have at hand is successfully completed, everything is easy to say."

Murphy nodded, and then looked at Pol, the cunning and evil goatman astrologer who would be honored to be a part of Lord Murphy's great cause.

Of course, this guy has no feeling for the glorious salvation of 100,000 people in the Drifting Star Realm, and its excitement is simply due to the wonderful and powerful knowledge of the creatures in the R-9 base that is open to him, and the fact that he has finally gained the trust of Governor Murphy to be allowed to participate in a secret project of this level.

Faced with Murphy's gaze, Pol immediately replied:

"I sent a Warrior with a heart of death to the Astral Plane as our 'living location', and he arrived at Cadman City a few days ago, and with the help of that Warrior's location, we were able to accurately capture the trajectory of Cadman City in the Astral Plane.

And this cement lady under your command is amazingly talented in the calculation of mapping formulas, she not only helped me calculate the relative position of the city, but even calculated a perfect time window for us by improving the algorithm of the mapping formula! ”

Pol praised the cement beside him without reservation, and the newborn vampire showed a modest expression just right.

She took over and said:

"The astral mapping calculation formula used on the continent is outdated, and it has not been updated for hundreds of years, which makes it full of some intolerable flaws, and I just updated it with some details with topological models and chaos algorithms.

However, my collaboration with Master Bol did work out the best window of time to bring Cadman City back into the physical world.

After just seven hours, the mapping of the astral plane to the physical world will enter a special cycle of stability, and for forty-five minutes, you can disrupt the orbit of the city being sent into the subspace region by interfering with the spatial system through the existing subspace rift.

At that time, it will only take constant interference to specific coordinates to pull Cadman City closer to Transia.

The goat-people already have Master Boor's apprentices in the filthy swamp town ready for a large astral pulling ritual, and they will pull and locate the astral objects at a specific location after receiving the message, and the city can return to the physical world through the window. ”

"Well, I don't understand, but I feel like your plan is solid."

Murphy blinked and asked:

"So, where is your new location for Cadman City?"

"According to your request, it can't be too close to the mainland of Transylasia until the hidden danger is eliminated, but it can't get out of our control, so with the coordination of many parties, we have decided to throw Cadman City near the Black Flame Pass."

Pol took out a map and pointed to the circle on it and explained to Murphy:

"Because of the Great Astral Rift you performed at the Black Flame Pass, there is a dimensional rift there that we can exploit, and its passage is wide enough to allow a city to enter and exit, so that we don't have to risk re-doing the Astral Rip, and we can have Cadman City take on the responsibility of blocking key roads in your Scourge strategy.

Once the city falls on the Black Flame Pass position, it can re-establish a battle line with Fort Courage, with 100,000 men at your disposal.

The most important thing is that the astral aura on the Black Flame Pass position dissipates very slowly, so that Cadman City, which has been staying in the astral realm for nine months, can give those beings in the city who have been completely changed by the astral plane a little adaptation period, lest they can't stand the constraints of the material world and have such and such problems. ”

"Wait a minute, I'll consult a professional."

Murphy recounted Bol and Cement's plan to Trith in the Maginot Line via quantum communication, and the Scarlet Witch thought for a moment and replied:

"Thinking very safely, the only question is whether this new formula they are using is reliable? I'll check it out and give you an answer in thirty minutes at most, but for now, the plan is so mature that I can't fault it.

This Pol is really a genius in this area. ”

"Okay, I'll wait for your news."

Murphy hung up the communication, turned back to the crowd in front of him, and said:

"Then let's begin the final preparations, and in seven hours, bring Cadman City, who has been away from us for nine months, back to the physical world, and by the way, close this dangerous subspace rift that has existed for more than a thousand years.

The Jackals thought that the Maginot Line had finished singing all the plays, but Hygeson would never have guessed that it was not only it that could summon the Splittal Clan from the Dark Mountains as reinforcements, but that we in Transsia also had our own 'way of shaking people'.

The return of Cadman City and its 100,000 tenacious men will be a real turning point in the battle of the Black Plague, and once they have resealed the Black Flame Pass with the power of the Astral Plane, Hygson and his gnolls will have nowhere to escape.

At that point, it's time for this black plague to come to an end. ”

Everyone nodded in unison, and they followed Murphy's gaze to the subspace void on the fourth floor of the base that had been suppressed by the beta program for thousands of years, and this strange thing like the eye of an evil creature felt terrifying no matter what time it was.

In the midst of this silence, Monica, an amnesiac sentry, whispered to Murphy:

"During this time, when I was renovating the energy module of the base, I suddenly found that the beta program was constrained into a sealing attitude, in addition to the modification of the energy module itself, there was also a device on the other side of this subspace rift for positioning and assisting in restraint.

It must have been sent by me more than a thousand years ago.

While we could have forcibly closed the rift by ignoring the device, if you could, I'd like you to put a little effort into recovering it while you close it. ”

"So what the hell is that?"

Murphy was surprised and said:

"Being able to persist in the chaotic region of subspace for more than a thousand years without being corroded sounds amazing."

"That's it!"

Monica rubbed her eyebrows and said with some distress:

"I can't really remember what I threw on the other side, but its ability to resist the pollution of subspace for more than a thousand years speaks volumes about its preciousness, perhaps the Creator's Treasure in the hands of the Sentinel Legion.

So getting it back will certainly be very helpful for our future actions, both for public and private reasons, and it's a dead end for everyone else, but your special Omega program makes it easy for you to do that.

Of course, I'm just making a suggestion, and it's up to you to decide how to proceed. ”

"Hah! Do you think a greedy guy like me would miss out on a treasure chest that sounds great in such an important plot advancement? ”

Murphy smiled, took out his cool mechanical pocket watch, looked at the time, and set a seven-hour countdown, he said:

"When the time comes, you give me a precise bearing, and I will definitely get it back."

"Uh, this thing in your hand. Is it the launch key for an astral ship? Looking at the specs, it seems to be a small and medium-sized starship, how can you have such an outrageous thing? ”

"As a 20-year-old administrator, is there anything wrong with having a cool starship as a means of transportation?"

"No problem! No problem at all, but if you have a starship in your hand, you can become the king of the world in this era, so why bother with a black plague? ”

"I find out why you sentry is talking so much about people's lungs? Let's change the subject, anyway, you used to be the tech officer of the Sentinel Legion's subspace cruiser, so you're sure you'll be able to repair the starship as well? ”

"Oh, just a little bit of understanding."

——

"The purification ritual will begin in four hours! Please move to the meeting room of the Crimean Fortress to rest, the fortress is currently in a state of combat readiness, so please do not enter the war zone at will. ”

At the easternmost end of the Maginot Line, Tribune Kudel, dressed in ceremonial armor, arrived on time with more than 300 players.

General Baldwin's usher led them into the fortress and gave them some rules before leaving to receive the others, and the curiosity of the players aside, Kudel's own expression would be very serious.

Although Lady Triss had stayed at the command because she had been given an important job before her departure, Kudell was also well-informed, and he looked out from the parlor reserved for the Translancians, noticing the cardinals who were coming and going in the fortress.

These were all elite members of the Church of the Winter Wolves, and judging by their numbers, the scale of General Baldwin's upcoming counterattack must have been staggering.

A few minutes later, while the players were discussing the various dried fruits and refreshments offered by the North Yankee, Turner, the special Winter Wolf God, walked into the room wearing a very formal priest's robe.

He whispered to Kudel:

"Archbishop Artyom is putting the finishing touches on the Great Purification Ritual, which connects to the divine powers of our god to completely wash away all forces with a dark bias, and vampires will also be affected.

Therefore, when the ceremony begins, you and the warriors of the Vulture Clan will be able to go to a special location to watch the ceremony. ”

"Thank you for taking care of the vampire's feelings in your busy schedule."

Kudell smiled, and then he asked:

"So, this viewing organized by General Baldwin is actually a swearing-in ceremony, right? After clearing the forces scattered on the battlefield by the Lord of the Hunt, the Winter Wolf Legion will attack on all fronts? ”

"Well, that's true."

Turner nodded and replied:

"This is the suggestion of Archbishop Artyom, the venerable servant of the gods has noticed that the morale of the defenders in the fortress is a little low, so he is ready to help our warriors complete this necessary counterattack by inflicting a high-level war blessing on the people of Su while the purification ceremony is taking place!

We will inevitably drive the gnolls out of the front lines of the fortress today, just as Lord Murphy has won in his position, and has dealt a ferocious blow to the gnolls. ”

"But I've heard from some professionals that the gods have not been able to respond directly to the physical world's prayers recently, which may prove that the gods are not making good progress on their battlefields."

Kudell said with a little concern:

"At this time, will this kind of large-scale divine power communication ritual cause some unexpected consequences?"

"This."

Turner hesitated, then said:

"This ritual had been consulted by the God of the North Wind before, and received a clear answer, but Su did not stop it, only told us that we needed to be prepared for change.

To tell you the truth, in fact, the cardinal archbishop in the Crimean Fortress is not the only one, His Excellency Artyom, the Great Sanctuary of the North Wind has secretly sent three archbishops and a full thirty Winter Wolf Sword Saints here, just to prevent accidents. ”

"Well, if that's the proper arrangement, then I'll be fine."

Kudell nodded, no longer questioning.

On the other side, in the gnolls of the filthy swamp, Hygeson looked out at the Krimu fortress in the distance.

It played with the wolf tooth pendant in its hand and looked back at the large number of elites who were already ready to go, and the hunting priests who were preparing to cast spells further away, and it knew that at this moment, the rat people of the Black Servant Clan had quietly dug from the ground to a position close to the fortress.

They carried enough explosives to blow down the gates of the Crimean fortress.

But neither the gnolls, nor the ratmen, nor the stupid kobolds, nor the stupid kobolds are the protagonists of today's battle, they are just supporting characters in a grand ceremony.

"Heh, the wall that doesn't break? Brass Fortress had boasted so much before, but what happened to it? ”

Xu Gesen scoffed and said:

"Today, I can admire your collapsed posture."
