It's dusk, but the war continues.

Yes, war.

This term, which was almost forgotten by humans on the Middle-earth continent, finally returned to people's field of vision half a month ago. After the Augustus family settled in Phoenix, after about two weeks of preparation, the first army had begun to advance westward, thanks to the work of Hart, the eldest of the Augustusian family. This man, known to the outside world as the little golden lion, does have the style of his father Leo, who is efficient and resolute. It took only two weeks to prepare the mobilization and supplies for the war, and then to advance westward.

Hart's advance was steady and orderly, with large and small supply points established along the way. These supply points would facilitate the transportation of supplies for the lengthy wars ahead, and the army would not advance quickly in order to consolidate the foundations needed for these wars. It took a week, and I didn't travel more than a few hundred kilometers. And then in the present position, the army of Augustus was finally thwarted.

The obstruction was naturally the Asgard army, and the ruins of the city in the wilderness began to fight, and after a week, the situation of the war began to evolve into a tug-of-war.

As an Asgard side, take part in a mixed legion of the Golden Tomahawk and the Hammer of Doom. At present, it is only ordinary servants who have rushed to the front line of the battlefield, and the elites of the two legions have not yet arrived. But the Legion Commander Thor, the man with the name of Thor, has already arrived, and uses the ruins of the city as a stage, showing no less strategic and military qualities than Hart.

At the beginning of the war, the Asgard side was almost defeated, and the soldiers of the Augustus side all thought that the defeat of the enemy's first army was just around the corner. However, Thor showed very amazing resilience, guerrilla, maneuvering, confusing the enemy, trapping, under his command, Asgard's army was like a thin but soft rope, seeing that the rope was about to be torn, but it was just a minute and a half to hold on.

Three days later, Asgard's reinforcements arrived, and with the arrival of various armored vehicles and heavy weapons, and even the appearance of cyborgs, Asgard's army finally gained a foothold in the war. They built an effective and powerful defensive line to resist the attack of the Augustusian side, and Thor's command style also changed 180 degrees, after a forced enemy attack, he chased the remnants of Augustus's army in a thunderous manner until the opponent's camp, eating all the remnants of the army, and finally flew away under the heavy artillery fire of the enemy camp.

This is tantamount to a shot in the arm to the soldiers on the Asgard side, and it also redeems the previous criticism of not daring to go head-to-head, and proves to both warring sides that he not only has military talent, but even if it is personal force, he will not be inferior to anyone. In the eyes of those with far-sighted eyes, this is a provocation from Thor to the commander of the army of Augustus, and the eldest son of the family, Hart, who has been commanding in the rear since the beginning of the war, but has never rushed to the battlefield.

Hart just laughed it off. In his opinion, if a war requires the commander to kill the enemy on the front line, it is not far from defeat. So two men with completely different concepts of war used the ruins of this city as a battlefield to show their own means, igniting the first war on the mainland.

In the evening light, an artillery tank painted in protective colors turned in from the left side of the street. In front of it, is one of the barricades in Asgard. In front of the barricade is a row of concrete barricades, with boxy blocks covered with stone pins, intended for armoured combat vehicles. Behind the barricades were sandbags and trenches, behind which soldiers hid in the trenches.

The appearance of artillery tanks was undoubtedly a preparation for storming this barricade, and the soldiers in the trenches were already raising their guns to shoot, of course, their bullets were a limited threat to artillery tanks. On the chariot of the Augustus family, as the gunner in the car adjusted the angle to the good angle, there was a boom, and the barricades were shot into the sky in the flames of the explosion. With another shot, sandbags flew and several unlucky soldiers were blown away by the strong blast current.

Then a group of soldiers came out from behind the artillery tanks, and they charged the half-damaged barricade. The soldiers on the other side of the barricade put up a stubborn resistance, but as long as the artillery and tanks fired again, the barricade would cease to exist. At that moment, an anti-armor missile was fired from the window of a building on the left street. The missile dragged the tail of the flame and struck the tank of Augustus in the blink of an eye with a sharp whistle, followed by explosions and flames, and the tank turned into a fireball in the street.

To the left and right of the barricade in front of them came a dozen giant wolves, about the size of a calf, covered in dark hair. These giant wolves are cyborg beasts developed by Asgard, possessing agile skills and Liliang who is not defeated by the liger. Their claws are plasma-like and capable of tearing through armor. Cyborgs roam the war, they have no specific target, and will attack as soon as they recognize an enemy.

Just like now, as soon as the dozen or so giant wolves saw the soldiers of the Augustus family, they immediately attacked. They run like the wind and are even able to move on vertical building facades, which is a nightmare for ordinary soldiers.

The wolf crashed into the enemy group, the roar of soldiers and the roar of machine guns echoed through the streets. Several giant wolves were shot and killed instantly, but the rest went on a killing spree. They pounce on the soldiers, bite their heads with their mouths open, and disembowel with their claws. The battle was fierce and short, and when all the commandos of Augustus were killed, there were only one or two wolves left alive.

They are the lowest-level cyborg beasts, only slightly superior to ordinary wolf mutants in terms of physical strength, and only plasma claws in terms of ability. But they are inexpensive and can be produced on a large scale. There are now hundreds of giant wolves roaming the ruins of this city, like an army of cyborg beasts, which makes the camp of Augustus have to guard against the sneak attack of these beasts that haunt in the dark night.

The battle to assault the barricades ended in failure, and at the same time heralded the end of today's war. Battlefield reports are transmitted back to the headquarters of both sides like snowflakes through their respective communication systems, so that the bigwigs can easily judge the situation of the war.

Far away in Asgard, on the top floor of the Twelve Main Shrines, there was a short figure in Douglas's office today. Callio was spitting out clouds, smoke from the cigarette butts in his mouth that almost obscured his square face, but it couldn't hide the sharpness in his eyes. He took off his cigar and knocked a small amount of ash down the table. Immediately, a small suction machine rises from the edge of the table, which generates a thin and powerful suction airflow, which sucks up the soot and then lowers it back.

Cario looked to the other side of the office, where Douglass was reading a briefing. Judging by the smile on the old fox's face, the war at the front should be quite smooth. The chief instructor coughed dryly and said, "Don't steal your own fun, why don't you tell me what are you happy about?"

"It's nothing, just looking at the young people now, I think of us yesterday, and then sigh that time is like weaving. Douglas said nonchalantly.

"Fart. Cario scolded, "Do you think I'm going to believe these liars?

"It's okay, now he has blocked the attack of the little imp of Augustus, but for the time being, he can't beat the little imp back to his hometown. ”

"There's no way around it, the Hammer of Doom is now only supported by Thor and a few core members, and can't fight like before. But it doesn't seem that the Fallen Angels have yet to put the Fallen Angels into battle, and it seems that the little imp named Hart is testing our bottom line. ”

"That's how it should be. Douglas looked at Cario and said with a smile: "It's you, knowing that the Augustus family sent troops, how can you still sit still, originally I thought you would go to the front line, so I don't have to send Thor over." ”

"What, do you feel sorry for your son?" Cario grinned as he bit his cigar and said, "Since Leo's old boy doesn't want to get out by himself, I'm naturally embarrassed to deal with his son with a big bully." The war of the imps is naturally left to the imps to deal with, not to mention that Thor has done a good job until now, and I can be happy. ”

Douglas laughed and said nothing, this war will not end so soon, now is just a prologue. There was still no movement on the part of the council, and Leo of Augustus had not personally entered the battlefield, so far the battle had been tentative attacks on each other, and an even greater storm was brewing.

"Compared to the fight between Thor and Leo's son, I care more about what Kid Zero pulls back. I heard that it was a spaceship, and if this kid really had the ability, he actually pulled such a big piece of iron back from under the nose of the old guy Ogg. Now that it's been shipped to his company's base, I guess you'll regret it. If you had known that the boy was still hiding this treasure, you shouldn't have let him get out of the Hammer of Doom so quickly. Otherwise, the ship would be yours now. Cario half-jokingly.

Douglas shook his head and said, "You're a fool to be Zero, he's not stupid, or he wouldn't wait until he's out of the formation to pull the ship back, but I'm curious where he found it." It doesn't seem to be as simple as the spaceships of the old days. ”

"No, it's a product of the same era as the miracle, and then he will be rich. Cario said.

"Quaternary stuff," Douglas looked at the brain screen in front of his desk, which contained several photographs. The background of the photograph is the wilderness, and a convoy appears in the photo. In the middle of the convoy is a behemoth. The tarp on it seemed to be lifted by the wind, revealing the front half of the ship, and the streamlined body was clearly reflected in Douglas's eyes.

When Zero wakes up, he finds himself back in the temple of the Green Capital. The tall figure was holding the hand by the window, and it was Hamermis.

He sat up, knowing that he was still in the room at the Zero Point base, and that what he saw now was nothing more than a projection of Hamermis' will. Hearing Zero's movement, Hammermis turned around and said lightly, "I'm here to say goodbye." ”

"I thought you were gone. ”

"It's coming, it's still there. But in order not to disturb you, I always hide in the depths of my consciousness. ”

"It's not a good hobby, it's going to turn into voyeurism. ”

"You're going to tell jokes too, can it be considered a transformation?"

Zero smiled, shook his head and said, "Sort of, I used to tie myself too tightly." But now, I still have a long way to go, and I can't drive myself crazy before I finish the road. Therefore, appropriate dispensing is still a must. ”

Hammelis nodded: "This kind of mentality is very good, otherwise if you always regard tomorrow as the end of Shijie, you will indeed go crazy." ”

"So you're here now, shouldn't you just talk to me about family matters?"

"Of course not, apparently I don't have that free time. Hamemis held out his hand, and a small figure floated in his palm. It was a humanoid alien being, with a human face, and "hair" like whiskers fluttering behind its sleek head. It is covered with fine purple scales, with eyes embedded in the shoulder sockets, chest, and knees.

Holding a trident in his hand, the surface of the halberd has wave-like lines that extend to a blue spar at the top. From time to time, a faint blue flame of light will be spit out from the hedron, flowing in the wave pattern, rippling like water waves.

"Belafar, Lord of the North Seas?" Zero said the identity of the character in the palm of Hamermis's hand.

Hamelis nodded and said: "We also discussed it when we fused the spirit before, and now that the pattern of the Shijie human race has been basically established, it is not easy to break this pattern rashly, and secondly, it may bring unpredictable consequences. So my suggestion is to contact the other True Kings, if I can unite with the Liliang of the other True Kings, but it is enough to form an irresistible force. It's just that those guys may not be as easy to talk as I am. ”

"How's your Destiny now?" Hamermis asked again.

Zero replied, "We've found a way to get other people into the ship, and we've cracked its identification system." It's not hard to say, Dr. Cod used my blood to create a DNA key, similar to an electronic magnetic card, that allows you to access the interior of the ship. The damaged parts have been repaired with other materials, and the other systems of the ship are currently being cracked by Dr. Corde. After all, this thing is from the previous era, and although I have used it for a while, it is estimated that it will not be difficult to get it to fly again. According to Kode's Jihua, he probably wants to turn the Destiny from flying in the sky to swimming in the sea."

"That's fine, then you can go to Belafar first. Hammis nodded.

"Does it make a difference?"

"Of course there is, because I'm from the same place as him. Hamelmis pointed to his head: "Don't ask me where I'm from, the answer is already in your head, think for yourself." ”

Zero and Hamomis completed the spiritual fusion, and in addition to inheriting a huge amount of spiritual power from him, there are also Hamomis' memories and cognition of this universe and Shijie. The amount of information is almost as large as a brain information base, and Zero has been awake for a while, but he has finally digested it all. It is only when he needs to use it that he can retrieve the information he needs through this database.

Just like now, as soon as Hammelis finished speaking, he searched in his mind for information about Belafar, and then he knew a rough idea. Originally, in Prosius's design, Hamermis and Belafar would be the true kings of the seas. It's just that the two have different routes to build a kingdom, and Hamorphis belongs to creating a systematic biochemical kingdom from scratch.

In Prossius's blueprint for the Dark Crown, the current Green Capital was supposed to be located in the old South Pacific, in a trench deep in the ocean, using the vast space of the sea to breed planetary biochemical weapons.

As for Belafar, he controls the deviant creatures of the sea, transforming them into his own soldiers, thus becoming the overlord of the sea.

However, against the wishes of Prosius, Hammelis migrated from the sea to the land, establishing the green capital of Gegnaia on the frozen plains. Therefore, in the temple square of the green capital, the statue of Hamemis has the image of stepping on the waves.

When retrieving the information of the Lord of the North Seas, Zero also gets his coordinates. To Zero's surprise, although Belafar is known as the lord of the North Seas, his location is not in the northern ocean, but in the sea maelstrom called the Gate of the Abyss, between the two continental plates of the Central Continent and the West Continent. Seeing the surprised expression on Zero's face, Hamalis smiled faintly: "Belafar is using the natural energy generated by the maelstrom to disturb his mother's perception of him, after all, he is a true king of the fighting type, and he is not as strong as me in terms of will. And the other combat-type true kings also use some natural environments to cut off the connection with their mothers, so their location is probably a dangerous place for humans. ”

"Go to Belafar, and if you get his help, your shili will be all over the ocean. This will also be very helpful in the search for holy sites, after all, as far as I know, most of them are sunk in the depths of the ocean. Only a small number of ruins have been lifted to the surface of the continent by changes in the earth's crust. After speaking, Hamomis slowly turned around: "Okay, I can only accompany you here." The rest of the road is up to you. When you leave, close the door for me. ”

Zero knew that when he left the temple, the will would return to reality. And Hammelis will remain here forever, perhaps completely out of his will. He glanced deeply at the tall figure before him, and then bowed to Hamomis. As the true king who has made a great contribution to him and to the entire shijie, Hamelmis is definitely entitled to receive this gift from him.

Pushing open the door, there was darkness outside, like this dark age in Zero. He didn't hesitate and strode into the darkness. Behind him, the door of the temple gradually closed. When the whole gate closed, darkness quietly flooded it. At the same time, Zero's eyes lit up and he saw the furnishings of the base room.

He's back.
