"We said don't kill her! Damn it, you..." Leierna stared. In the many years of living in this mortal body, she rarely had such an angry moment, but she soon realized that The anger at this moment is useless, and this unreliable freak in front of her is the only "ally" she can control at the moment. She can only forcefully suppress her anger and say in a depressed tone, "Our base here has been exposed. 'Grand Master', get ready—or rather, we don't have time to make any preparations, and all plans must be started immediately!"

"I don't understand," Borken said in a bad tone, he was obviously very dissatisfied with the attitude of the elf twins, "I have completely killed the intruder, and there is no residue left - you don't have to doubt my strength, in this On the planet, almost no mortal can survive after being hit by my wither spikes, even the dragons!"

"That's exactly the problem! Your Excellency the Grand Priest!" Ferna also raised her voice and said, "That's a sea monster! Only a very limited number of soul-type powers can kill that creature—yours Wither Spikes could only temporarily disintegrate her body, and now she has returned to their lair in the deep sea with all the secrets she saw here! It is now clear that it is the Krakens who have been intercepting us these days No matter what the reason is for the rune stones thrown in, this ancient alien race is now standing on the opposite side of us, Grand Priest, do you understand this situation?!"

Kraken? !

Borken finally woke up from his anger. The slightly unfamiliar word "sea monster" quickly evoked information that he didn't know much in his mind. He recalled those related to the deep sea and described those deep and dark seas. The story of Abyss, the songs that echoed in the reefs and islands, and the crazy and frightening descriptions of the sailors who survived the tide in ancient times, he took a light breath: "The sea monster you are talking about is a storm. Son of the past hundreds of years..."

"Let's start everything early, Grand Priest," Fierna interrupted the treant leader, "It's pointless to continue to develop dormantly."

"But... our 'domestication' of the deep blue webway is still far away!" Borken couldn't help but said, "and the situation is really so serious? Our previous tests have triggered observable It is impossible for our enemies not to notice the phenomenon..."

"Exposing one's existence and exposing one's hole cards are completely different concepts, Grand Priest, the civilization of those sea monsters is far more advanced than you imagined, that 'scout' has seen many things we set here, they can The truth deduced from it is far more than those weak races on the mainland, and I am very worried now... Those deep sea creatures may have reached an alliance with the weak races on land at some point," Leierna said in a serious tone Said, "The plan must be started in advance. Although this will make us lose a lot of advantages that we should have, it is better than letting the whole plan fall short..."

The ancient out-of-control AI occupying the body of a replica gritted its teeth, and its face became very ugly in the end. Obviously, the sudden change in front of it greatly interfered with the whole plan, making some of her arrangements unable to be completed on schedule, but then , Ferna next to her seemed to think about a new branch from another logical thread: "But this is not all a bad thing, I am afraid that those mortal countries living outside the wasteland are not ready, we start early Action should be able to catch them off guard..."

"Wait," at this moment, Borken seemed to feel something suddenly, he shook his dry and twisted crown, opened two arms made of twisted vines, his dark brown eyes were full of Be vigilant, "Do you feel...the water vapor in the air is increasing?"

"Water vapor?" Fierna frowned. The body she is using now is limited by the physical form of a mortal, and its perception is not much stronger than that of an ordinary elf, and her whole body has already been alienated into a half-plant Grand Priest. Obviously, she is more sensitive than her in terms of "moisture", so it took a few seconds for her to realize what the other party said about "more water vapor".

The air was getting humid, and a slight, salty smell wafted into her nostrils.

In this barren wasteland far away from the sea, she smelled the breath of the sea.

The sound of the ocean waves sounded in my ears like an illusion, the rushing sound was as clear as if the whole sea was in front of me, but the essence of the sound was not the tremor in the air—it resonated with the mind in the soul, creating a horizontal The "sense" that straddles reality and cognition, the water vapor has become more and more enriched, and the dry stones and cliff surfaces in the surrounding valleys have begun to seep layers of water droplets at some point, and the salty wind is blowing The dead branches and leaves of the tree people, and a soft singing voice suddenly appeared in the waves. The singing voice began to link the minds of everyone on the scene, instilling in their hearts the yearning for the deep sea, the yearning for diving, and the yearning for integration with the dark abyss. thought of.

This is the unique psionic singing of the siren——

Petya, the siren queen, is singing.

From her song the deep sea descends into this valley.

Sisters Fierna and Leierna raised their fingers without hesitation to point to the spatial rift lying at the bottom of the pit not far away, and then layers of halos emerged from their sides, controlling the boundary of the rift.

"Blow up this passage!"

they shouted in unison.

Chapter 1304 Howling

The waves are so close that only a set of melodies and a frightening association remain from the real world.

Cultists with crude knowledge do not understand the power of the master of the deep sea, but the database accumulated by the Sentinel during the long observation service process has all the information about the siren group. When the salty sea breeze in the surrounding air and the echoing While the sound of the waves in their minds gradually became clear, Fierna and the "sisters" Leierna realized where the transmission path of this power was—it was the dark blue rift.

The siren scout just now is probably some kind of "pioneer". Her death has formed a coordinate at the end of the rift, and this coordinate is guiding the power of the master of the deep sea!

"Blow up the rift, now!"

Fierna and Leierna yelled, and under their control, the edge of the dark blue rift had begun to flicker violently and showed signs of collapsing inward. Although Borken on the side didn't know what happened, but He had already guessed from the visions around him and the unusual reaction of the elf twins that something bad was about to happen. This time, he no longer questioned it, but helped the twins destroy the rift immediately.

This of course made him heartbroken. He and his followers have invested too much time and energy in this valley. The dark blue rift in front of him is the largest and most stable "gate" they have created so far. "It is not at the same level as those temporary cracks that can only be opened for a few hours. This is also one of the main control nodes. Once this is destroyed, I am afraid that it will cost a huge price to establish another control node—but even Even so, he still didn't hesitate.

The dry and twisted vines spread from the high platform to the edge of the crack, working together with the rune circle created by the twins, the stable structure of the channel crack was further destroyed, and the strong suction came from the depth of the crack, pulling the "gate" together with the surrounding area. The dirt and stones were attracted towards the inside together, and the tooth-piercing creaking sound came from all directions, mixed with the tremor of the whole valley, and in the process, the weird and ethereal singing never stopped—— The tide is coming.

The water vapor rose up, and the hazy mist like sea fog filled the sight of Fierna and Leierna. The entire valley was full of sparkling lights, and the indistinct sea surface appeared and disappeared in the air. Bor Ken suddenly felt a sense of suffocation, although he was sure that the essence of his surroundings was still air, but he had a feeling of being soaked in sea water, making it difficult to breathe, he felt the salt condensation on his bark, Waves washed over his canopy—as a legendary powerhouse, he was sure that this level of "attack" would not be fatal to him, but this attack form that he had never seen before left him at a loss as to how to deal with it ...For the first time in hundreds of years, he felt a little flustered.

But at this moment, a loud noise suddenly exploded from mid-air. It was the sound of waves hitting the cliffs. The tree people in the valley who were trying to find a dry land all followed the prestige, and they saw an illusory huge wave. The nearby rocks were shattered, and the monstrous water spray fell from the air. In the raging waves, a huge, vague upper body of a woman protruded from the water. This illusory world composed of water vapor, waves, salt and sound waves The figure slowly bent down from the air, watching the production area in the valley, the control center, the ore quarry, and the aberration barracks not far away, and a trembling and rhythmic voice came out of the waves: "... What do you want to do?"

Accompanied by the voice, an arm of the same size quickly formed in the waves, and reached towards the sisters Fierna and Leierna who were rapidly closing the rift, and the arm that descended like a collapsed giant tower also descended. There was Petya's voice with a hint of anger: "Don't... close it..."

"This is not your deep sea!" Fierna waved her hand and completed the last operation to close the rift. With the rapid collapse and disintegration of the blue channel, she quickly sketched out several complex structures in the air. The rune gave instructions to the rune stone that had started to operate in the dark blue webway, and then she raised her head, looking at the huge waves that had begun to dissipate in midair and the female body that was about to disintegrate, "I hope you like this meeting ceremony, Chuang King of the Entrants."

"Boom!!!"

There was a loud noise, and the tide above the valley and the figure of the Siren Queen were torn apart in a big explosion. The monstrous sea water poured down from the sky, but before it touched the ground, 90.00% of it had dissipated in the air like a dream , and the remaining [-]% turned into a torrential rain, splashing on the twisted treants and the deformed legion at the bottom of the valley.

Immediately afterwards, a series of large and small shocks came, but the shocks seemed to be transmitted from another space to the real world. The air was trembling, the ground was shaking, the magic field was surging, and the dark blue crack that had just been closed burst out. Fragmented blue light, a storm that humans cannot see with the naked eye seems to be raging in the deep blue webway, Borken is still in shock, he seems to have heard distant roars and many panicked shouts, but just as he wanted to concentrate on listening, those voices It all disappeared again—the connection was completely interrupted, and the power and will projected from the distant deep sea had completely left here.

"Did you kill her? Or did you just exile her?" Borken looked at the elf twins, "What was that last thing you activated just now? Is that also one of the functions of the rune stone?"

"An attack of this level can't kill the Siren Queen—there was an entire Sea Abyss choir behind her to help her share the damage, but this failure should be deeply remembered by her," Ferna looked back at Bo Erken glanced at him, "As for the attack just now... Grandmaster, that is just one of the basic functions of the rune stone to protect itself. For such a large and complex system, there should always be some defensive means in the face of foreign invasion, no? Is it?"

"Compared to these meaningless questions, let's act as soon as possible," Leierna said immediately, "The last blow just now caused us to expose another hole card, and our enemies will not be so reckless next time. Grand Priest, go and assemble your legion, this wasteland can no longer provide us with enough 'dropping points'...Although time is short, we still have an advantage."

Borken took a deep look at the elf sisters in front of him, his canopy shook slightly, and said slowly, "Okay."

In the next moment, dense roars sounded from inside and outside the valley, and the sound of heavy footsteps began to form a series. In this "assembly point", on the wilderness outside the valley, on the plains, hills, rivers and Among the magnificent ruins left by the ancient Gondor Empire, millions of wandering mutants suddenly stopped their meaningless wandering for hundreds of years. These chaotic creatures seemed to be suddenly infused with reason, Quickly assembled into a well-disciplined legion after another, they began to advance towards the majestic energy barrier towering between heaven and earth in the distance.

And behind each such legion, there are different numbers of twisted treants pulling up their roots and marching with the army in the form of mobile command nodes.

Sisters Fierna and Leierna narrowed their eyes slightly. Relying on the huge network of roots spreading under the wasteland, they could "see" the movements of the countless legions just like Borken. They saw the huge The power of the soul is like a dark tide, spreading toward the majestic wall in an unstoppable manner, but at the same time... the energy barrier jointly established by elves and humans is still like the sad but stubborn soul of mortals , blocking in front of the legion.

They opened their eyes and stared at the faint sentinel towers on the distant horizon, and in their other field of vision, the energy fields spreading around those sentinel towers were clearly visible... Wide-area energy field continuous projection technology, this In the eyes of the sentinel, there is no secret at all in the technology that was brought here by the original elves from the ancient continent of Kaldor in ancient times, and has been completely changed after thousands of years of tinkering.

That ancient high wall looks majestic and heavy, but it is actually fragile.

……

Huge waves rolled up in the boundless sea, and the powerful energy gushing out from the deep blue vein swept across the entire water area almost instantly. A piece of "elemental vacuum" burst out, hundreds of millions of tons of sea water disappeared out of thin air, only the dark blue veins that were on the verge of getting out of control were surging in the terrifying seabed cavity-this terrifying scene lasted for more than ten seconds , the huge elemental power finally began to refill the "hole" that appeared in this world, and this triggered a series of new huge waves.

Such raging tidal waves, even the water elementals living in the boundless sea can't bear it.

Finally, Gruguno, the monarch who ruled the water element field, was also alarmed by the terrifying fluctuations in this sea area. The elemental lord who was like an incarnation of the ocean descended on the waves, and saw the local elemental lord who was trying to calm the waves and Sirens, with the help of Sirens, Elemental Lords, and Gluguno, the turmoil in the Boundless Sea finally calmed down.

"I need to know what happened here!" Gluguno's huge body stood upright in the boundless sea, and the never-ending torrential rain poured down from the sky-like sea above, washing the giant's angry and confused body. Face, "Great absorber, you never said that there was such a thing when you established the outpost here!"

"If we hadn't set up an outpost here, I'm afraid you won't know what kind of danger this world is facing until you perish together with the entire elemental world—it's not just a huge wave, Gululu."

The voice of the Siren Queen Petiya came in the rainstorm, and a vortex rolled up in the boundless sea. The figure of the ruler of the deep sea rose from the vortex and appeared in front of Gruguno, who saw clearly The appearance of Petiya at this moment, what he wanted to say was stuck in an instant - he saw that half of the other party's body had disappeared, only the drifting water kept repeating disintegration-reassembly near her disappeared body In the process, there were blurred blue gleams drifting out from near her head, spreading out in the torrential rain of the Infinite Sea, forming a structure reminiscent of broken wings, these "dissipated bodies "It spread out for a hundred meters in mid-air, and wherever it went, the waves and rainstorms changed their trajectories one after another.

Gluguno is not very clear about the physiological laws of this strange "foreign water element" of the sea monster, but even if he doesn't understand it, he can tell at a glance that the situation of the master of the deep sea is not good. Even the recovery ability can't restore his body - frankly speaking, he has fought against this queen for hundreds of thousands of years and has not been able to hurt her to this extent.

"What's wrong with you?" The master of elements stared at Petiya dumbfounded, so that he ignored the impolite behavior of the other party calling himself "Gululu" just now, "You look like you are about to be beaten to death Like..."

"You're not good at holding back laughter, Gululu, your voice is trembling because of holding back your laughter—but I don't mind," Petiya said calmly, looking up at the huge vortex on the face of the master of elements instead of eyes , her badly injured half body is healing at a very slow speed, and the erosion caused by the dark blue magic is being forcibly expelled by her little by little, "If you know that a group of crazy cultists under the leadership of an ancient mind are destroying Gondor What are you doing in the soil, I believe you will stop laughing soon."

"Wasteland of Gondor? Heretics? Ah, those human things..." Gruguno, the master of elements, made a disdainful voice, "I know you have been dealing with races on land recently, but do you care too much? Are those short-lived main material world civilizations? For millions of years, countless races have done countless things in the material world, but the cornerstone of the elements will never move..."

"Looking at my current state, can you say again that the cornerstone of the elements can remain unchanged forever?" The water flowing out from Perthia's side slowly opened, as if showing a scarred wing, "They created a certain A very powerful thing is buried in the dark blue webway. That thing has not been completed yet, but the power it has exerted so far can blow up a huge piece of land in your boundless sea through the barrier of half a planet and the elemental realm. The vacuum of elements - now they have destroyed the coordinates and passages leading to Loren Continent, I just tried to get in touch with my sisters residing in Loren Continent, but found that all the elemental passages pointing to Loren Continent have been confused Energy blocking, and this is probably just one of the aftermaths of the big explosion just now..."

"...It seems that you don't just want to tell me about these things." Realizing that the powerful alien master in front of him was not joking, Gruguno's tone finally became serious, "What do you want us to do? Statement, we are different from you, no matter what happens in the material world, we cannot intervene in the material field on a large scale, we elemental creatures are part of the 'balance' of this planet, the consequences of the imbalance can be referred to today's Tarrond Those 'rift-contaminated areas' and those polluted elemental creatures. Seriously, if your spaceship hadn't crashed through the dome and caused the boundary to infiltrate, we wouldn't have been able to fight with you 'elemental war'……"

"Don't worry, I know you don't have much room to intervene in what happens in the material world—but I need you to think about your own future," Petya said slowly, her eyes looking into the depths of the boundless sea, looking at those The dark blue veins that are rushing and changing inside, "These 'currents' flowing at your door are what you need to worry about."

"What about the situation in the material world?" Gluguno couldn't help asking, "You just let it go?"

"I will find a way to send an expeditionary force from the material world, whether it is too late or not, and... I believe in my allies."

Chapter 1305 What's the situation?

The towering Sentinel Tower stands at the border of the dirty and dark wasteland. The huge base of the tower is like a hill made of man-made piles. The simple and thick tower body, inlaid with crystals and elven runes on the surface, is suspended above the base. , a faint stream of light wandered around the surface of the giant tower, constructing a constantly changing angle of light between the runes and crystals, and with these giant towers as nodes, the ancient and magnificent energy barriers flowed from the clouds like a waterfall of shimmering light. Hanging down, there is a clear distinction between the wasteland and the civilized world.

Accompanied by the loud and high-pitched whistle, the armored train "General Winter" rumbled into the advance base, and another group of heavily armed imperial soldiers, combat monks, and armed ladies arrived at this front-line barrier, tall and straight, with a heroic temperament , the imperial commander Philip in military uniform walked quickly through the connecting passage next to the platform, and a tall and strong figure, wearing a set of heavy armor and a heavy prayer book hanging by an iron chain at his waist, appeared in the "General Winter" No. [-] car, this figure walked towards the direction of the connecting passage, and behind him was a group of white knights who were leaving the car in a row.

"Patriarch Wright," Philip quickly walked to the tall figure, and said quickly after saluting the other party, "I didn't expect you to come to the front line in person—I heard that the Holy Setting Sun Squadron was going to go to the front line." I came to support, but I didn’t expect that you would lead the group yourself.”

"Your Majesty is very worried about the situation here, and we are receiving more and more disturbing information," Wright said, with a mellow and powerful voice, "Although it is important to do some paperwork in the church, the Holy Light bestows upon me Responsibility makes me appear where I am needed more—the brothers and sisters of the front battle group need me as the Patriarch very much now."

"We have indeed found some anomalies here," Philip nodded, "The monsters inside the wall have been circling around the inside of the barrier, looking restless as if someone is urging them from behind, and the front detection station Abnormal energy fluctuations in the wasteland have been detected several times in a row, and the direction of each fluctuation is different."

"Let's talk as we walk," Wright said in a deep voice, and then quickly said as he followed Philip to the base, "Has the promotion plan been finalized?"

"It has been set. Now that the vanguard and heavy fire support are ready, the Silver Empire will send a signal to the Sentinel Tower in the near future. In front of the three main propulsion bases of Typhon, Cecil, and Silver-Gaoling, The Great Wall will open a narrow gap, we use heavy firepower and burners to open the way, rush to repair a forward fortress inside, and then erect the purification device, gradually expand the safe zone and advance towards the center of the wasteland.”

"Very good," Wright nodded slowly, but then frowned slightly, he turned his head to look at the shocking energy wall, and looked at the towers and towers floating in the sky not far away The ray of light blooming on the face, "But I always have an ominous premonition..."

"Ominous premonition?" Philip's expression became serious. "Is the Holy Light producing some revelation?"

"...It is very possible that the Holy Light has sensed the excessive growth of evil forces," Wright said with an unusually serious expression, "The Holy Light is guiding me, let us add [-] heavy artillery and two bases in the direction of advancement incendiary bomb."

Philip thought about it seriously, and his expression slowly became firm: "...I think Shengguang is right."

……

The Temple of Stars is slowly cruising in the sky, a huge shadow is cast on the vast jungle on the northern border of the Gaoling Kingdom, the green barrier formed by the living forest is slowly undulating at the end of the horizon, the powerful guardian ancient tree, the Silver Legion And the elite ranger troops of Gaoling Kingdom are ready to go at the end of the forest sea, and on the other side of that dividing line, there is the towering light curtain of the magnificent wall, and the giant sentinel tower floating on the top of the nearby hill.

The barrier separates the two worlds. On one side is the lush living forest defense line, and on the other side is the wasteland of Gondor covered with scorched black, dirty soil and wind-eroded boulders. This wall has stood here for seven centuries, and today... mortals It will be the first time to actively open a gap.

Belsetia sat on the seat of dominion, her vision was integrated with the entire anti-gravity fortress, and she watched all the wind and grass on the border of the distant barrier through the external monitors set up in various places in the Temple of Stars. She felt The high-altitude airflow blows across the deck, feeling the humming vibration from the engine group. This huge and ancient flight base seems to be another body of hers. The mechanical soul and the senses of the flesh and blood are mixed together. Perception dislocation is enough to make ordinary people faint instantly, but it is something she has long been accustomed to.

She temporarily escaped from the mechanical whispers, looked up at the hall, and saw the magisters and temple instructors busy in front of the control terminals in various places in the hall, while her chief magician, the great astrologist Verania, was silent. Standing on the small platform in front of the throne.

"Our troops have assembled, Your Majesty," Verania said with her head lowered. "Our allies just sent a message that everything is ready."

Belsetia nodded slightly, but did not respond immediately.

She knew that the alliance was not ready yet. Whether it was Typhon, Cecil or Baiyin, there were several "big cards" dedicated to this war that were still on the way. The risk of rushing to counterattack the wasteland was very high Gao, but she knows better...the "sentinels" in the wasteland have already started to act, and there is not enough time left for the mortal kingdoms in the safe zone outside the wall. The only choice at this moment... is to attack in advance.

The spirit of the Silver Queen was condensed, she closed her eyes slightly, and let her soul completely immerse into the main control system of the Temple of Stars, she heard the soul of the machine in the depths of the fortress whispering to herself, and heard the sound of the relationship with the Temple of Stars. With the distant echoes from the connected sentinel towers, she activated the command keys that had been silent for centuries, and then began to authenticate, unlock, and inject commands one by one according to the process deep in her memory...

On the distant horizon, on the top of the sentinel tower floating high in the sky, some subtle ripples suddenly appeared in the originally constant light blue light, and light rays from top to bottom began to appear on the surface of the thick and solid majestic wall. Flowing, Verania subconsciously clenched the astrologist's long staff, staring at the first-person view of the front line from the monitoring device, staring at the crack gradually appearing on the surface of the magnificent wall, not even breathing. come to a standstill.

At the same time, at Typhon's winter wolf advance base and at Cecil's southern advance base, heavily armed knights and mage legions and fully equipped mechanized divisions are also staring at the barrier that is gradually opening in front of them-hundreds of years Come on, this is the first time that the mortal kingdoms took the initiative to open a gap in this wall. This historic scene is enough to make everyone hold their breath.

No one has noticed—or in this era, no one has noticed—that there are actually some clutter mixed in the energy fluctuations and feedback signals released by those sentinel towers during operation. The barrier control system is not fully operating according to the command protocol.

A sharp and ear-piercing sound suddenly sounded in the control hall, and a large number of control terminals were shut down and restarted at this moment. Violent shaking came from the depths of the Temple of Stars. The violent shaking made Verania almost fall to the ground. Hearing the piercing system alarm sound, the attendants and controllers were all exclaiming. Her first reaction was to look at the ruling seat in the center of the hall, and saw that all the lights on the pale golden throne had turned off. It went out, and a bright arc shot out between the large number of cables and pipes used to connect the throne and the fortress!

The operator's reports filled the hall: "The Sentinel Tower system is offline! The Grand Wall is out of control!" "The main antenna is turned off!" "The backup port of the Grand Wall refuses to respond! Something is blocking our signal!"

"Your Majesty!" The great astrologer rushed to the throne in an instant, but the Silver Queen, who had her eyes closed tightly on the throne, opened her eyes suddenly before that. Belsetia slapped a certain rune on the armrest of the throne, cutting off the While connecting, he wiped off the blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, and ordered loudly and quickly: "Restart the main antenna, switch to manual control for all terminals facing the sentinel tower, move the temple to the No. Get closer to that Sentinel Tower! We need to reconnect immediately!"

The order quickly issued by the Silver Queen calmed down the short-term panic in the hall, and all operators immediately began to implement Belsetia's order—at such a time, a clear order is very important, even if people's response effects are limited , "Order" itself can also play a role in rebuilding order.

"Your Majesty," Verania stepped forward to support the obviously pale Belsetia, and asked quickly in a low voice while secretly supporting the Queen's body, "What happened?"

"There was an infiltration of permissions from unknown sources. Just after I completed the authentication of the seat of control, that thing overwrote and tampered with the instructions I issued," Belsetia said quickly, "The Sentinel Tower system was forcibly enforced by me." Closed, this is the only thing I can do just now—otherwise that fake authority will completely take over everything connected to the Temple of Stars."

What the Silver Queen said made Verania's heart almost stop for half a beat. She took a breath, and then noticed the terrifying scene displayed on the monitoring system not far away——

The "passage" of the magnificent wall that is slowly opening has already exceeded the predetermined width, surpassing the front-line troops' attacking surface, but the barrier is still opening, and the passage leading to the wasteland is still widening.

The out-of-control Sentinel Tower is still continuing to execute the order it received from the Dominion Seat just now, and the Grand Wall is about to be completely closed under the influence of this wrong order!

At this moment, a nearby elf who was in charge of controlling the terminal suddenly shouted loudly: "The main antenna has restarted! Tower No. [-] has resumed responding! But... the 'open door' command cannot be overwritten!"

Verania's heart tightened, and the next second, the Silver Queen she was supporting pushed her arm away and sat back on the seat of control: "I'll connect—Great Astromancer, you will take care of me. "

Verania glanced at the damaged cables around the throne, and subconsciously even wanted to pull the queen up: "Your Majesty, this is not feasible, the connection to the throne has been..."

"It still works, I'm sure, more than half of the connections here were cut off by myself just now, I have a measure," Belsetia directly interrupted the chief consultant's words, "There is no time to hesitate—the entire civilized world is rapidly Exposed to the wasteland of Gondor!"

……

The Wall of Magnificence opened a passage to the interior of the wasteland - but not quite in the way planned.

Cecil pushed ahead of the base. Hundreds of heavy tanks and more multi-purpose combat vehicles assembled on the plain. The artillery positions on the high grounds on both sides pointed directly at the direction of the wasteland. Soldiers and commanders stared at the front That majestic barrier of energy, watch it gradually open a rift through the middle, watch that rift slowly become a wide passage—and then watch the passage continue to open to disturbing magnitude, and the whole majesty The wall, and even the Sentinel Tower in the distance gradually made an extremely disturbing whistling sound.

That movement sounded like the "howling" that a large barrier would make when it was about to be forcibly closed!

Things weren't right -- experienced commanders and veterans had been quick to judge.

And the next moment, the dragoon fighter planes performing reconnaissance missions in the air sent back information—a large number of aberrations that were originally wandering around the inside of the barrier suddenly gathered and began to move towards the magnificent wall in an unbelievable "order". The ever-expanding gap is coming!

"What's the situation?!" Inside a command vehicle of the vanguard, a front-line commander in blue light armor stared at the picture sent by the external monitor with wide eyes, "Is there any news from the elves? "

"Our communication with the southern theater was interrupted just now," a low-ranking officer said quickly, "Sir, the aberrations are rapidly gathering and rushing towards the gap—the rear ordered us to immediately fight on the spot and block it." The gap!"

"Then block it!" The front-line commander gritted his teeth, the dirty smoke rising from the horizon in the distance was chilling, it was the prelude of hundreds of thousands of distortion bodies and large monsters flooding in, but this The soldiers on this front have no room to retreat—the gap in the majestic wall is still expanding rapidly. After losing that energy shield, the glorious First Legion is the only barrier in front of the dark mountains, "Tank The troops adjusted their formation to build a defensive line, all the 'Steel Ambassadors' switched to shield mode, and informed the heavy artillery positions - we need support!"

On the distant horizon, turbulent aberrations have appeared like a tide, and the number far exceeds the theoretical normal value, far exceeding the previous detection and calculation results, and the "discipline" they show... is beyond intelligence .

But in contrast, in the past few months, driven by the serious "firepower shortage phobia", the artillery piled up on the front line day and night by the Cecilians has actually far exceeded the previous plan——

The target comes into range, the magic capacitor activates, and the heavy cannon fires.

Amidst the continuous bangs, streams of light blue light rushed from the human position to the sky one after another, and fell into the wave of aberrations in the distance after a graceful and deadly arc.

The sea of ​​flames in the sky exploded, and hundreds of bright high-heat explosion points appeared out of thin air in the army of distortions like a black tide, and the powerful shock wave that followed tore apart the strong bodies of the flesh and blood giants and hurriedly supported them. The energy shield, the stumped limbs and arms flew into the sky, and fell like rain a moment later.

Behind the army of deformed bodies, the treant priests in charge advanced step by step under the protection of the guards. The turbulent black tide in front made the dark druid feel infinite confidence, and even brought a sense of heroism. Affection--

Although the action was rushed and the preparations were insufficient, the weak mortal kingdoms outside the wall would only become more flustered and less prepared in the face of this army and the fact that the magnificent wall suddenly collapsed.

After a wave, there will be nothing left for those mortals who were caught off guard.

At this moment, the ear-piercing screeching sound broke the peace in the sky, and the big explosion that filled the entire field of vision set off a "reverse wave" in the opposite direction in the tide formed by the distortion body.

The dark druid who was in charge of commanding this legion stopped, the twisted and withered canopy trembled in the air current, and the sea of ​​flames falling from the distant sky ignited his vision——

"What's the situation?"
