Chapter 1306 Wasteland - Total War

Strictly speaking, this is a war in which both sides have made long-term preparations, but the preparations of both sides are not very sufficient, and the timing of its outbreak is beyond everyone's expectations-everything is beyond the plan. The development is completely in accordance with the blueprint of the participants. Everything happens suddenly. The coping ability of the frontline soldiers becomes the decisive factor. Everything is gradually getting out of control, and only "out of control" itself runs through it all the way.

The communications of the Silver Empire have been cut off, the status of the allied elves is unknown, the Great Wall and the Sentinel Tower have obviously fallen into a fatal error state, the barrier that has protected the civilized world for seven centuries is rapidly disintegrating and disappearing, and the inside of the wall is disintegrated. The number of monsters lingering and gathering in the depths of the soil obviously exceeded the upper limit of the theoretical value, and their ferocious momentum and vague "discipline" during the attack were even more shocking. In the face of these variables, he had to turn from offense to defense, turning into a rock to block the out-of-control and expanding gap in the magnificent wall-the change of the situation shocked experienced commanders and veterans alike.

As for the aberrant army attacking the northern defense line, the scene they imagined "the mortal army rushed to the battle, the paralyzed barrier defenders collapsed at the touch of a touch, and the tide of aberrants rushed into the civilized country" did not happen. Instead of dispersing hastily, the human beings set up steel barriers as if they had been prepared long ago. The chariot troops and heavy artillery positions that looked like moving walls began to roar out of sight, and the reckless legion was killed on the road to reunion Shrouded in fire and rain, in the overwhelming explosion, the dirty and corrupt limbs flew into the air together with the mud and rocks under their feet-the dark druid priest who was in charge of commanding the rear of the legion was also taken aback.

Both sides were taken aback. In this war, the first and greatest consensus reached by the two warring parties appeared at this moment: What is TM on the opposite side. jpg? !

A low humming sound swept across the sky, and the shadow of the dragoon fighter jets passed over the bottom of the low and oppressive clouds. Those anti-gravity aircraft with inverted cone-shaped chassis swooped and circled over the tide of distortion bodies like swifts. All the heavy aerial bombs or incendiary bombs they carried were dropped, and the explosions and flames splashed among the enemy troops like waves in the water. At the same time, black and red electric arcs rose from the ground, crossing and sweeping across the return flight of the bombing troops. On the way, two aircraft were strafed in the air, exploded and disintegrated, and more aircraft completed the bombing and bombing action, and quickly returned to the propulsion base located in the southern belt plain.

With the return of the flying troops, the intelligence ahead was presented more clearly in the eyes of the base commander.

"Aberrations are everywhere, almost like mud flowing on the ground." In the command center, the holographic projection is clearly showing the picture sent back by the frontline troops. A dark-skinned adjutant is standing beside Philip, He said quickly, "They were just wandering around the breakthrough point or even further away before, but after the abnormality appeared in the magnificent wall, these wandering monsters seemed to have received a signal suddenly and started to wave coming toward us—and precisely toward the hole in the barrier."

"How many? How many more?" Philip asked quickly.

"It's impossible to count, monsters from deeper in the wasteland continue to gather to join this 'tide'," the adjutant shook his head solemnly, "As long as this tide passes by, irrational aberrations will Immediately 'respond to the call', there is no way to calculate. Moreover, those monsters also have certain air-to-air capabilities, and their arcs and energy rays can hit our dragoons, which greatly interferes with the investigation."

Philip frowned, quickly analyzed and gathered possible clues from the situation reported by the adjutant, and said in a deep voice two seconds later: "There should be some kind of 'command system' inside them, just like the Crystal Cluster Legion back then. The command system is likely to be mixed somewhere in their main force, and the principle may be some kind of pheromone, or it may be nerve impulses... They can make nearby irrational aberrations follow orders..."

He suddenly raised his head and looked at his adjutant: "Look for the enemy's most heavily defended areas or areas with obvious energy enrichment, and concentrate firepower to destroy which units-if the enemy has too much firepower to reach, then increase the offensive. The Winter Admiral has completed the calibration of the main guns and informed the frontline troops that the fire support they want will be delivered within 10 minutes."

"Yes! General!"

The adjutant took the order and quickly passed the order down. The command system of the entire First Army Corps had already begun to operate at high speed. Orders were transmitted from the command post and sent to the front line. The first-hand information that the frontline soldiers came into contact with quickly It is sent to the high-level commander of the propulsion base through the various communication stations set up on the strip plain.

Senior commanders such as Philip and Wright stood in front of the wide tactical platform. Several holographic projection crystals set up on the platform were projecting various scenes, the largest of which was the entire area currently under the control of the First Army. Sand table projection - the projection has translucent plains and hills marked by bright color blocks in the firefighting area. The blue color block representing the First Legion is still firmly rooted at the foot of the magnificent wall, while the black and red tide representing the enemy Then they rushed to the gap wave after wave, the tide was constantly being wiped out, and the blue color blocks occasionally faded and filled. From the surface, the two sides still maintained an overall offensive and defensive balance.

But that balance doesn't last - Philip knows that all too well.

Because on the holographic projection, the light green translucent phantom representing the majestic wall and the sentinel tower is constantly weakening. On the line of defense facing the Cecil Legion, in the middle of the barrier built by the elves A "gap" enough to accommodate half the city has already appeared, and the scope of this gap is still expanding!

Although the First Legion is strong, although the main gun of Admiral Winter is powerful, it can only illuminate the area within its range. If this magnificent wall continues to collapse like this, it will not take long for the gap to expand to the point where it cannot be blocked at all. To a certain extent, especially those natural danger areas outside the monitoring range - human beings cannot gain a foothold in such places, and deformed monsters don't care whether it is a quagmire or a poisonous swamp!

And that's not the worst scenario Philip could have imagined...

The young imperial commander frowned and stared at the holographic projection in front of him, but what appeared in his mind was the entire wasteland of Gondor.

I am afraid that Cecil's line of defense is not the only one that collapsed. Now that the communication in the direction of the Silver Empire has been cut off, this shows that there is a big problem with the uppermost control center of the entire magnificent wall, so the worst possibility is... the entire waste The barriers around the earth are disappearing.

The entire civilized world is rapidly being exposed to the wasteland!

Philip was obviously not the only one who thought of this. The tall and tall Wright standing aside also frowned. It has been greatly disturbed, and I suspect that the scope of the barrier's loss of control is very large, and it may even have collapsed across the board... Maybe there are huge gaps everywhere around the wasteland."

"...Frankly speaking, I'm not very worried about our side," Philip nodded with a gloomy expression, "We still have a lot of backup and reserve forces here, and I'm not very worried about the Typhon people, they can handle it, I What worries me the most is the Silver Empire - they have control over the Great Wall, and in this situation, there is clearly a problem with them..."

Before he could finish his sentence, a burst of hurried footsteps came from outside the door, and the next moment, a correspondent quickly ran into the command hall.

"Report sir!" The correspondent, whose face was flushed from running all the way, saluted Philip, and said very quickly, "Our communication with Camp Typhon has been restored!"

"The communication is restored?" Philip asked immediately with a smile on his face, "How is the situation over there?"

"The situation is worse than ours," the communicator swallowed, "half of the barriers in front of them have been extinguished, a large number of monsters are pouring into the battlefield from the hills and valleys, and there are a large number of giant mutants among them - the only The good news is that the terrain on their side is more complicated. There is a ridge facing those monsters in the area where the barrier is extinguished. The Typhons currently occupy the high ground and are relying on the mage group to eliminate the enemies in the low-lying areas-but wait until the mages have magic power It’s hard to tell if it’s exhausted.”

"...It seems that the situation is as bad as we expected," Wright's voice came from Philip's side. "There are more than one loopholes in the barrier, and the sentinel tower on the Typhon's side is also out of control."

"The good news is that the Typhons are still able to maintain the front line for the time being. The bad news is that most of our flanks have no reinforcements—if the barrier continues to deteriorate, they may even need our support," Philip put his hands on the tactical projection platform Going up, staring at the line of defense standing still above the black and red tide, "...Is there any news from Andersa Wendell?"

"She said that the Typhon Legion would find a way to plug the loophole, and asked if we needed support."

"...Thank you for the kindness of the Typhon people, and write back to tell her that we can still support here," Philip nodded and said, "Has the communication team returned?"

"Our communication with the Eastern Front has only partially recovered, and they are rushing to repair the next communication station."

"Is it the east..." A figure of a young man with short silver-white hair and a cheerful and reliable smile appeared in Philip's mind, but soon he shook his head and turned his attention Focusing on the entire battle situation, "I understand, just leave it to them."

"The situation here has been reported to the imperial capital, and a support army is heading for us from the South Gate Fortress," Wright said while looking at Philip, "but before the reinforcements arrive, the pressure we will face will only increase... "

"Don't worry too much, the defensive force we have deployed here is actually far more than 'necessary'," Philip exhaled softly, "From the very beginning, when our counterattack plan was just beginning to prepare, His Majesty seemed to be ready Prepare for the worst situation, the real strength he invested in this line of defense is not only as much as you can see... To be honest, even I felt that it was unnecessary at the time, but now it seems that we all have to Admit that His Majesty's judgment on that wasteland is correct..."

Having said that, he paused for a moment, then continued with a serious face, as if talking to himself: "What I'm really worried about is the defense lines in other areas..."

At this moment, a staff officer's voice suddenly came from the side, interrupting Philip's self-talk: "Sir! The enemy's movement has changed, and their main force is turning!"

……

Continuous light blue arcs flew into the sky from the area of ​​the human defense line in the distance, crossed parabolas under the dirty and low-hanging clouds, and fell on the heads of the distortion body army.

Every time such an arc falls, it will bring a huge explosion like a high-level magic burst. The powerful shock wave can tear apart the strong body of the aberrant body, and the high-temperature flames that follow can instantly evaporate the whole body. area.

What is more terrifying than the power of these explosions is the number of these explosions.

They are endlessly falling from the sky, like a torrential rain. The bombing has been going on for a long time, but this offensive shows no signs of weakening. Instead, it becomes more and more fierce as time goes by. This can only explain one thing: launch this kind of attack For those "Cecilians", it is not a matter that will cause fatigue, at least in a short period of time, and they still have a larger number of reserve forces in their hands. Strength will continue to grow.

There are a huge number of mutant soldiers in charge of attacking. Even with the falling "Skyfire", they rushed to the front of those human positions several times. Under the absolutely fearless impact and the support of a huge number, they are not without results— ——The human line of defense has been retreated several times, but only a small part can be retreated each time. According to the sensory signals sent back by those aberrations, the dark druid priest in charge of commanding this legion can see those who are made of steel The built chariot and the human soldiers accompanying it can move quickly every time. Facing the rushing mutants, they don't collapse, but retreat in an orderly manner—and after they evacuate, there will be a certain amount of time in a short while. This incendiary weapon covers the entire battlefield, completely incinerating the aberrations that rush into the position.

If the fight continues like this, the investment is completely out of proportion to the results.

The Aberration Legion is not afraid of losses. These stupid wandering monsters are not considered compatriots at all, nor are they valuable soldiers. The dark druids have no pity or sentimentality for the death of these cannon fodder, but even "cannon fodder" , It is also a valuable "cost" from the perspective of the overall situation. The cost paid in the early stage of the plan is too high, which will undoubtedly affect the development of follow-up actions.

Behind the tide-like army of deformed bodies, a tall and hideous twisted treant wriggled his roots and touched his wrists and came to another treant, and a hoarse and gloomy voice came from his shaking crown: "Master, The forward offensive has been frustrated, and human resistance is fierce, should we continue to increase the offensive?"

The druid priest known as the headmaster shook his head. He raised his eyes and looked at the weakening majestic wall barrier in the distance, as well as the sentinel tower towering at the node of the barrier, which had lost its protective brilliance.

Under the gloomy sky, the light above the high tower has become weaker and weaker, and the streamer of light wandering between the runes on the surface is intermittent, as if it is on the verge of collapse.

"We should give those stubborn humans a little 'surprise' - and by the way, wake up those idiot elves who are still trying to reset the barrier system.

"Turn the main force and destroy that tower!!"

Chapter 1307 Surprise

For the past seven centuries, the Sentinel Tower has been a place of avoidance for monsters wandering the wasteland - even irrational aberrations and wandering spirits bred from discarded mana will instinctively Stay away from these dangerous facilities that are full of huge energy and release purification beams at any time. There are very few groups of monsters approaching the Sentinel Tower, and it is unprecedented to launch an attack actively.

Today, however, most of the defensive functions of the Sentinel Tower have been offline, and the remaining ancient warning devices around the tower will no longer be able to resist the assembled aberration body legion, and the order from the upper command node has dispelled the monsters entrenched Instinctive resistance in the mind of chaos——At one command, tens of thousands of aberrations and fel spirits began to turn in the wasteland, pointing their fearsome arrows to the magnificent land on the wasteland highlands. giant tower.

At the same time, a large number of aberrations are still pouring in from the depths of the wasteland, replenishing the battle zone on the border of the barrier, and continuously creating pressure on the human army on the defense line, making these stubborn mortals powerless to stop the aberrations the actions of the bodies.

Looking down from a high altitude, the entire wasteland border has been filled with countless layers of dirty waves, and the almost endless number of aberrations trapped in the majestic wall for seven centuries have been constantly under the control of "command signals" Inspiration is continuously added to the "legions" that hit the border. The high walls that once blocked them are being extinguished section by section, and gaps are constantly appearing on the shimmering energy barrier. The mortal army is in those gaps. Before that, he fought hard and tried desperately to plug the loopholes in the defense line, but the scale of the loopholes became larger and larger, gradually becoming an unmanageable situation.

A half-man, half-tree monster stood on the former northern border of Gondor, overlooking the distant scene from a high hill. The army was like a tide, hitting the gap at the end of the barrier, and also hitting the magnificent, still Floating in the mid-air sentinel tower, he saw a sharp arrow of the mutant legion finally approaching the base of the tower, and a giant mutant body almost as large as the city gate stopped on the plain in front of the base , Surrounded by countless cannon fodder, those giant "beasts" with dirty flesh and blood bent down, fixed themselves on the ground with deformed hands and feet, and the bony spurs growing parallel on their backs pointed far away to the high-altitude floating in the air. tower--

The bony spurs on the back of the "giant beast" were filled with bright electric light, and the highly compressed magic energy caused a sharp whistling in the air. After a moment of power accumulation, the attack like a beam cannon pierced through the air, violently bombarding the magnificent on the tower.

The surface of the tower quickly rippled with layers of ripples. The energy shield of the tower body blocked the high-energy beams released by the giant distortion body. Then, some magic organs installed on the base of the tower began to counterattack sparsely. Arcane missiles and electric arcs swept across the wilderness - the only remaining automatic defensive firepower killed some aberrations that were too close, but more "behemoths" gathered on the plain, and one after another high-energy beams began to bombard the sentinels The superstructure of the tower.

The roar of artillery fire from afar shook the ground, and the more and more pungent smell in the air stimulated the nerves of the soldiers. The ground under their feet was trembling, and the clouds in the sky were burning. In the eyes of the young communications commander, the world's most powerful There is only one important thing, and that is the signal relay hub that stopped working in a half-buried bunker not far away.

Fendil Wilde led the remaining four soldiers through the poisonous wasteland covered with jagged rocks and flying pungent dust. His short silver hair was disheveled, his neat military uniform was now full of dirt and damage, and bleeding wounds could be seen in the ripped sleeves. He crossed a low natural stone wall, an unresponsive communication relay. The bunker appeared a few hundred meters away, and the half-buried concrete vault seemed to be intact.

"There is no sign of being attacked. It may be that the energy released during the out-of-control process of the Great Wall destroyed some structure of the repeater. It is a blessing in misfortune."

Fendil quickly made a judgment in his heart, and stepped forward while secretly relieved, but at this moment, a soldier who had been following him suddenly pointed to the sky not far away and shouted: "Sir! Look over there!"

"Over there..." Fendil yelled subconsciously, but when he raised his head and looked in the direction of the soldier's finger, the second half of the sentence in his throat was directly swallowed back.

He saw clusters of bright electric arcs constantly blooming on the surface of the Sentinel Tower floating in mid-air, and the energy clusters filled with dirty red bombarded the middle of the tower one after another. The remaining energy at the top of the Sentinel Tower was originally It has become weaker and weaker, and under the continuous attacks, the light curtains that barely extended on both sides of the tower began to collapse at an accelerated rate, and the thinner energy barrier was crumbling like a candle in the wind.

"Those monsters want to completely destroy the tower!" Another soldier shouted in horror, "Once that tower is completely destroyed, even if the elves restart the barrier, the gap on our side will never be closed Already!"

Fendil stared, the exclamation of the soldiers under him echoed in his ears, and the light on the tower in the distance kept shining in his eyes, but as a communications captain with only a few soldiers under him, as a person who was caught in A low-level officer on the vast battlefield, he suddenly found that he was powerless to prevent this from happening.

But in the next second, his eyes fell on the communication relay point not far away. The howling cold wind on the wasteland woke him up. He ignored the meaningless personal sentimentality in his mind and brought The only remaining fighters on the road rushed towards the bunker.

The outside of the bunker was not destroyed, and Fendil quickly rushed into the fortification of this half-buried structure with his soldiers. At first glance, he saw the extinguished magic net terminal in the center of the artificial pit , and two Cecil soldiers who fell dead near the terminal.

There are no traces of enemy attack around the dead soldiers, but shocking burning and penetrating wounds can be seen near the chest of the corpse, and traces of high-temperature roasting can be seen on the ground next to the magic net terminal, which should have been set nearby The energy amplification array and spare magic storage crystals have all been turned into scorched black wreckage fragments.

During the process of losing control, the Great Wall randomly released energy pulses to the surroundings. One of the energy pulses probably just swept across this communication base, causing the key equipment to be overloaded and out of control. The soldiers stationed here may have tried to rescue the most important magic network terminal. They fell on the equipment in the center of the fortification, and were subsequently killed by the sudden detonation of the power device-which would explain why their fatal wounds were located in the chest.

Fendil's eyes quickly swept over the dead, and he roughly judged what had happened here. At this time, he had no time to bury his comrades in arms. He ordered his soldiers to move the remains of the dead to one side to make room for the dead. After repairing the space for the equipment, he immediately went to the side of the magic network terminal and began to replace the structure that had been overloaded and burned.

And after he started to get busy, a soldier who was helping suddenly frowned, and whispered with some unease: "Sir, do you feel... the vibrations under our bodies have been?"

"The entire ribbon plain is shaking," Fendil said without raising his head, "That's the artillery fire in the distance, and the movement of those monsters attacking the Sentinel Tower—don't talk nonsense, if the time wasted here is too much Many, then you have to face more than just this shock!"

"Yes, sir," the soldier hurriedly agreed loudly after hearing the lesson, but after a while he couldn't help muttering, "It seems that the vibration is getting stronger... as if something is approaching..."

Fendil ignored the chanting of his subordinates, he just quickly installed the new components into the empty slots of the communication device, and directly used his own magic power to depict completely burned runes on some structures in the terminal While busy with the operation of the base plate, he raised his head quickly and looked worriedly at the narrow window facing the wasteland of Gondor in the fortification—through the narrow air window, he saw the building floating in mid-air. The shield on the surface of the Sentinel Tower flickered, and the entire tower began to vibrate violently, and an extremely disturbing piercing whistling sound continued to come from the direction of the plain, disturbing everyone's mind.

And at this moment, a low buzzing sound suddenly came from the base of the magic net terminal in front of him, and the extinguished and damaged device finally came back to life in his hands, and the communication with the distant place was also connected.

The focusing crystal barely lit up, projecting a blurry phantom. Fendil couldn't care less about continuing to debug the system. He suppressed his rapid heartbeat, and while switching the device to emergency forwarding mode, he talked to all the people he could contact here. The terminal issued a call: "This is Cecil Communications Sergeant Fendil Wilder, emergency situation, the aberrations are attacking Sentinel Tower 98! The aberrations are attacking Sentinel Tower 98! I can see their assembly here The location, the main offensive force is roughly in the southwest of the black hills..."

A loud bang sounded at this moment, interrupting Fendil's continuous calls and broadcasts, and also interrupting the movements of all the soldiers in the communication bunker—even interrupting the roaring artillery fire on the battlefield at one point, interrupting A chaotic wind howling and reeling between monsters and humans.

Then there was a second loud bang, and a series of piercing whistling and roaring.

The last shield radiance on the surface of the Sentinel Tower in the distance extinguished amidst the whistling sound, and a powerful beam cannon destroyed a main energy pipeline in the tower, and a loud noise came from the sky, and the explosion started from inside the tower—— The fissures filled with flames filled the tower in an instant, and then the out-of-control energy produced a deadly resonance between the base of the tower and the anti-gravity mechanism of the tower.

Numerous chain explosions began to occur on the surface of the Sentinel Tower, which has guarded this line of defense for 700 years. The tough ancient alloy frame prevented the main body of the tower from being completely torn apart in these explosions, but all the functions of the tower have irretrievably come to an end. After a moment of shaking (this shaking was more like the last struggle of a dying giant), the giant tower floating in the sky came down, first smashing its own base, then crushing the hill below, and finally slowly But the terrifying posture fell towards the hills in the southeast direction.

The energy barrier extending from the two wings of the tower was finally completely extinguished, and a part of the structure of the magnificent wall finally disappeared permanently at this moment, turning into a terrifying gap extending from the southern border of Cecil to the northern defense line of Typhon.

Inside the communication bunker, a soldier stared dumbfounded at the terrifying scene in the distance. He watched the barrier that had stood on the border of the civilized world for hundreds of years, as if it was a natural phenomenon, completely collapsed before his eyes. It went off and disappeared, the huge impact even overwhelmed all the tension and fear, he just stared in that direction like the other soldiers, and it took a long time to squeeze out a voice from his throat: "Sir... the wall has collapsed... "

"I saw it," Fendil said almost gritted his teeth. Only in this way can he barely maintain his composure—even though he himself is a "non-commissioned officer graduate" who has just set foot on the battlefield, in front of his soldiers, he You must maintain your calm attitude, "We will transfer immediately to confirm the backup line. The energy shock just now may have damaged the communication between us and Typhon again. Now the magic net terminal is full of noise..."

While talking quickly, Fendil stepped towards the outside of the bunker. He felt that he was calm enough, but he was almost caught by a green vine that came out of the nearby soil—he staggered forward After taking two steps, he managed to grab a pillar so as not to fall to the ground in embarrassment. He stood at the exit of the fortification, staring at the direction of the wasteland of Gondor in the rough and cold wind, feeling a little dazed for a moment.

But in the next second, as if he suddenly realized something, he suddenly turned his head to look in the direction he was walking in just now, and looked at the thing that almost tripped him just now.

……

The Sentinel Tower fell, and the barrier that had sealed the wasteland for 700 years and represented the stupidity and stubbornness of mortals was finally torn a permanent gap.

The druid priest who was in charge of attacking the northern line of defense left the high ground where he was, and surrounded by the guards, readjusted the main force of the Aberration Corps, and began to concentrate the offensive pressure on the direction of the newly opened gap, and a surge of excitement His emotions filled his already heterogeneous nervous system, dispelling the depression and anger accumulated in his heart since the beginning of the war.

His annoyance has its own reasons—since the start of the war, all branches of the legion have been receiving information about smooth advances, and almost every troop that is advancing outwards has crushed the ridiculous "alliance" that was formed. The strong resistance force, the army rushing out of the wasteland took advantage of the sudden attack and large numbers, and there were frequent victories on all fronts-but he was the only exception.

The tenacious resistance of the Cecilians and their unreasonable, crazy firepower piled up as if they were neurotic made the Aberration Corps attacking the northern defense line suffer.

That firepower that blew up the entire land several times is simply not something that humans can do!Even the nerve signals fed back by the TM monsters felt that the group of humans on the opposite side were monsters!

But everything is better now, and the humiliation of the officer's thwarted attack has been redeemed the moment the sentinel tower fell.

No matter how tenacious the will of the Cecilians was, no matter how powerful their firepower was, they couldn't block a gap that could almost tear apart the Dark Mountains.

They could only watch as the tide of aberrations overran their defenses and rushed into their homes, tearing apart their siblings and friends.

"Give them a huge surprise!"

The dark druid, whose form resembled a combination of hideous trees and ugly humans, shouted loudly. Driven by his will, the aberrations merged into a black tide, rushing towards the mountain pass on the east side of the dark mountain.

Then, he felt a tremor in the depths of the earth——

At first, he thought it was the roar of artillery fire in the distance, and then he thought it was the army under his command shaking the scorched earth.

But then he discovered that it was neither, that the vibration came from deeper, from farther away.

It was as if some kind of incomparably huge giant creature was drilling deep in the soil, as if there was something terrifying...or some kind of structure deep in the earth was breaking through the ground.

"Master!!!" The terrified roar of the junior priest interrupted the thinking of the dark druid, "Something came out of the ground!!"

The dark druid in charge of commanding the legion raised his head subconsciously, looking towards the end of the legion ahead.

There, countless nightmarish and ferocious giant vines broke out from the depths of the earth, and reorganized into towering giant trees in an instant. The thorny thorny vines whipped the scorched earth that was once at the foot of the magnificent wall. Huge "behemoths", venomous biochemical synthetic beasts and mana monsters—these supposedly horrifying creatures were pierced through their bodies one after another, rolled up into the air, struggling desperately at high altitude, and writhing like flies. Grass catches flying insects.

An astonishingly large green forest barrier is penetrating the land bordering the Black Forest, taking shape in a very short period of time, and a vaguely familiar female voice somehow crossed this vast battlefield, crashing in the nervous system of the dark druid Blast:

"A surprise, my former compatriot, Dean Bertram."

Chapter 1308 Regional Victory

A surprise, a surprise that has been crawling in the depths of the dark land for a whole year, is being drilled out of the rocks and soil on the border between the Black Forest and the Belt Plain with a shocking posture like a natural disaster, presenting itself to those swarming from the wasteland. In the eyes of the army of aberrations.

The shock rumbled in the depths of the earth, and the entire southern border of the Dark Mountains was shaking continuously. In the depths of the dark soil, in the stratum structure that humans cannot detect, the huge plant structure that spread all the way from the Sorin Plain has already penetrated. Countless astonishing tunnels and openings emerged. These things, which I don’t know whether they should be counted as roots or vines, gnawed at the soil and stones all the way, and drew extra energy from the biomass conversion plants and storage tanks set up along the way. It has been growing continuously for months, accumulating strength for today's breaking out of the ground, and now, the moment of breaking out of the ground and embracing the sun has finally arrived, the "far branches" of these Sorin giant trees...began to stretch their structures wantonly on the ground .

Prickly vines and wooden stakes tore through the ground, and from the Cecilian's southern advance base to the dark mountain pass at the junction of Typhon and Cecil, countless plant structures are cracking from place to place at a frantic speed And the caves swarmed out, those huge "roots" that came out were chilling, even from a distance, it seemed that the earth had grown countless ecstatic tentacles in an instant, and they were like seaweeds in the air under the dim sky. Stretching and shaking wildly, all the intersections leading to the dark mountains have been blocked in the blink of an eye.

The deformed army in front sent back the last scene they saw before they died, and that terrifying scene was deeply imprinted in the eyes of the dark druid Bertram—he saw dark green or dark brown root tendrils The wrist drilled out of the ground and swept towards the nearby deformed bodies and various mutant creatures in the posture of a predator. Those vines pierced the flesh and blood of the monsters and rolled up their bodies. A mass of rotten flesh, those vines wrapped around the dying monsters and the mixture of flesh and blood, dragged them one after another into the large number of huge mouths that suddenly opened on the surface, and in those dark and deep cracks, what Bertram saw It is countless squirming and rubbing teeth, churning and rolling muscles, and a boiling and bubbling pond of digestive juice.

Underneath the entire strip plain...is a digestive organ with a width of hundreds of kilometers, a hungry stomach with teeth based on underground caves and huge biological structures, this huge digestive system is already here Hungry for a long, long time, and now... the death of all things in the wasteland sent a huge amount of food to this hungry wriggling stomach.

Soon, these foods will be transformed and become a new source of biomass for the green forest barrier, and become new limbs and limbs of the "plant forest sea" that gushes out crazily!

A chill that had been forgotten by him for hundreds of years finally surged out from the depths of his limbs. Bertram felt that every inch of bark and every branch of his body was shaking in the cold wind. In the pictures sent back by several aberrations, he saw that the roots emerging from the ground were hardening and deforming rapidly, and their structures facing the sky quickly became the appearance of towering giant trees. Those giant trees not only became protective The green barrier of the mortal world, at the same time, they themselves are spreading their green leaves to greedily absorb the sunlight, and continue to replicate and spread their roots outward, making the defense line even more stable.

What was even more frightening than this scene was the voice linking into his spirit!

Ever since the deformed body corps in front came into contact with the green forest barrier, the faintly familiar but particularly chilling female voice has been transmitted to my mind through some kind of neural link!

"You're scared, and I can smell your fear, Bertram... that's funny, I've 'worked' with you for hundreds of years, and I've seen you and your deformed brethren for hundreds of years Respectable comrades who are willing to sacrifice for a great cause, you say that you are fearless in the wasteland, you say that the continuation of the world is your most noble pursuit...but now you command a frenzied and dirty army to attack us, After a little setback, I trembled in fear... Bertram, am I so scary?"
