The investigation into the remnant power of all things in the wasteland has reached a bottleneck, but this does not mean that the several empires outside the magnificent wall will stop their counterattacks in the wasteland - on the contrary, precisely because inside the wall The situation is completely unknown, which puts additional pressure on the major empires, making them more urgent to penetrate the wasteland, even if it is just to establish an initial advance base.
Thus, the counterattack of the mortal nations on the wasteland began.
In the south of the continent, the Silver Empire has united with the Kingdom of Gaoling to establish a huge ranger force, and began to advance north along the border forest with the guardian giant tree, gradually compressing the polluted areas outside the magnificent wall, while in the north of the continent To the northeast, Typhon and Cecil have mobilized a large amount of manpower and material resources to start building several railways that run through the contaminated areas, preparing to use these "steel arteries" as fulcrums to pry open the solid pollution barriers around the wasteland.
The great architect Gordon stood on the observation deck of the first wall of the South Gate Fortress, his eyes fell on the edge of the black forest in the distance. Deep in the forest, he could see some vague man-made structures emerging from those towering twists. Their heads poked out from among the trees, their metal or crystal spiers shining in the sunlight, connecting one after another into lines like jewels inlaid in the forest, pointing in the direction of the majestic wall.
Those are outposts set up in the Black Forest. They are the exposed spiers of the mana broadcast towers or shield generators in the outposts.
In the past days, many people believed that the Black Forest was a dead end for human beings. Countries were afraid of the blockade of the Black Forest because of the high costs, huge risks and low cost of fighting the Black Forest. However, there are two countries that are exceptions. One is the Typhon Empire, which has always maintained the western wasteland warning zone, and the other is Cecil, which has always regarded counterattacking the wasteland as its goal, and In comparison, the Cecilians went even further than Typhon in this regard.
As early as the Anzu era before the establishment of the Cecil Empire, during the joint operation of various countries to repair and strengthen the magnificent wall, Cecil used heavy incinerators and armored troops to forcibly open up the Black Forest. A road leading directly to the wasteland. After the joint operation that year, this original "temporary passage" was not abandoned. Instead, it received long-term maintenance and a series of "additions". According to the instructions from the imperial capital, The construction corps stationed at the southern foot of the Dark Mountains was ordered to use this road as a basis to continuously expand the control area of ????the South Gate Fortress and build a series of outposts and supply nodes along the road. Its control area extends southward to At the foot of the Sentinel Tower.
Today, this long-term project finally has a moment to play a significant role.
The "Sentinel Road" in the Black Forest will become the basis for marching into the wasteland. The energy stations, military depots and supply nodes set up along the way will be used to provide important support for subsequent engineering troops. A charging railway with the highest standard so far will be built from Starting from the South Gate Fortress, we pass all the way through the Black Forest and the strip plain outside the Sentinel Tower, until we reach the foot of the Great Wall. Then the empire's steel fortress and legions will reach the territory of the ancient kingdom of Gondor through this steel artery, where they will build It is the first forward base for mankind to counterattack the wasteland.
The sound of footsteps came from the side. Gordon retracted his gaze towards the black forest. He turned his head to look in the direction of the sound and saw a short, muscular colleague wearing a thick black coat heading this way. Come.
That was Bruce Panshi, an outstanding craftsman who was promoted to the title of Grand Architect two years ago. This engineering master with dwarven ancestry was one of the first members of the "Hundred-man Aid Group" to come to the Southern Territory during the Cecil Territory period. In the restoration project of the magnificent wall, the engineering team he led shined brilliantly (this is also an important reason why he was promoted to become a great architect), and in the subsequent counterattack on the wasteland, this man who was very interested in "contaminated area construction" An experienced technical expert will also become one of the key leaders of the engineering department, which will undoubtedly be a privilege.
"Hi, Gordon," Bruce raised his hand and greeted Gordon, his voice as loud as thunder in the mountains, "Have you seen the first echelon of engineering teams assembled in the square? Those earth element resonance guide rails, large ones The elevators and the shiny machinery cabin! Let me tell you, I like our new mission, now the empire¡¯s most advanced construction machinery has been sent here!¡±
"I saw it, of course I saw it. I've been watching it all morning," Gordon shrugged. "And we have to look at it for a longer time - building a railway from here to the wasteland. It¡¯s not a simple project.¡±
"We already have a road in the Black Forest - with those stops along the way, all preliminary surveys and logistical supply work will become easier," Bruce came to Gordon's side with a red face. , "I dare say that the progress of the Typhon people's project this time is definitely? She also squirmed slightly as her mood changed, and at this moment, a whistling wind and a low roar suddenly came from the air, making her raise her head in surprise.
A huge and majestic figure cut through the sky, passing quickly over the northern city. The figure was shrouded in a layer of golden light in the bright sunlight cast by the huge sun, and the edges of its open wings were glowing with metallic luster. Intimidating steel machinery covered her fiery, scaly torso, limbs and tail, like a figure straight out of a bard's legend, reflected in Pea's eyes.
"Dragon? Dragonborn?" Wandou watched in surprise as the figure flew overhead and landed in a nearby neighborhood. He muttered subconsciously, "Weren't the recent racing flight areas of the group of dragonborns forced by the Public Security Management Center? Have they moved outside the cityWhy are they still flying around in the bustling area"
Some questions popped up in her mind, and Wandou ran towards the direction where the "Steel Dragon" landed - not to watch the excitement, but to worry about what the intrusive dragonborn might cause during the landing. Trouble, after all, that place is not far from her home.
¡¡
After a series of thrilling decelerations and "flanking flights", the mighty red dragon finally controlled its speed and altitude over the city. Her giant wings were beating, and the artificial rune system mobilized the magic power and airflow in the air, allowing this The huge body remained stable, and then with the assistance of the anti-gravity system, Asarena finally completed the last step of landing with a very graceful and beautiful "short-distance elevation landing", which shocked the entire small square. There was an impact and a loud "bang" sound, and the dragon's claws were firmly imprinted on the open space in the landing zone.
"Then the dragonborn lady with bright red scales like fire seemed to react on the spot for a moment before shaking her huge head from side to side: "I'm really not used to landing according to the normal procedure"
As soon as she finished speaking, a figure staggered out of her shoulder. Byron covered his head, his voice sounded quite painful, but he did not forget to question loudly: "Just now you were still dozens of meters above the ground. Did you plan to transform into a human and jump down?! I even saw the initial movement of your transformation!"
"Didn't I remember at the last moment that you were still on my back?" Asarena shouted without looking back, and at the same time she lowered one wing to form a ramp leading to the ground, "And what do you mean? The initial movement of transformation, can you still tell from my flying posture when I plan to transform?"
Byron covered his head, but his voice was still loud: "What can't be judged - how many times have you smashed it on my deck in the past month or so? The person in charge of washing the deck on my ship can tell when you are planning to Jump down from the sky"
"Stop talking nonsense," Asarena shook her wings and tail, "Get down quickly, my wings have flown all the way, and I will be very tired if I keep holding on like this."
"What do you have to be tired of? Most of your strength comes from the machines on your body. Do you think I don't know that the latest model of Steel Wings has a 'cruise control' function?" Byron muttered, then his expression changed. He waved his hands miserably, "Wait a moment, let me slow down This journey has been too tortuous, especially the last moment of landing I don't feel very comfortable in my stomach right now"
"Huh?!" When Asalena heard this, her whole back suddenly shook, "Then you have to get down quickly! Don't vomit on my back! Damn it, why didn't you say you were afraid of heights before you set off? To this extent?! And I remember you weren¡¯t afraid of heights back then!¡±
"I'm not afraid of heights, I just don't like flying in the sky Stop shaking, Asarena, stop! Stop shaking! You shake me even more I can't stand it anymore. I'm really vomiting ¡¡±
After a series of unbearable vomiting sounds, the entire small square instantly fell into extreme silence.
After a few seconds, the furious dragon roar finally echoed through half the block¡ª¡ª
"Byron!! I'm going to kill you!!!"
