War Lord

Chapter 960: The overture of the new era

On the north side of the Blu-ray Mountains, the traces of the battle are still there, and the potholes are still not refilled, and the traces of the artillery bombing remain. The fortifications on the edge of the city are being rebuilt, artillery shells and various ammunition are being produced by factories, and the city is reviving. This morning, Leo learned that Zero-sum Douglas had defeated the invaders, but his long-term cautious style allowed Leo to send several patrol teams to the surrounding area as usual.

Two of the patrol teams are responsible for the mountain on the north side and the forest bordering the mountain.

After the two teams went deep into the forest for ten kilometers, they dared not move forward. Near here, the guards left by Ansura to protect the brood can already be seen. The guard is basically composed of lizards and Garcia flying insects. Garcia flying insects that can reflect ambient light are almost invisible, and lizards move around. Use your paw prints and smell to mark your territory.

When one of the patrol teams came to the defense infested area, a lizard dragon suddenly emerged from the bushes. The sudden appearance of such a big guy shocked the soldiers. Fortunately, they had already received a notice from their superiors before they set off, so they didn't care about the lizard dragons that appeared in this area.

The lizard doesn't seem to have much interest in humans either. After smelling one of the soldiers with its big nose, he lazily crawled back into the bush. The team leader made a leave gesture and glanced at the forest ahead before leaving. In the territory divided by the lizard dragon, a layer of yellow mist was drifting. Even the mountain breeze in the forest could not dissipate this layer of mist, and it only smelled like rotten eggs floating along the mountain breeze.

The smell is very unpleasant, and after taking a sip, you feel a little dizzy, thinking about it and knowing it won’t be a good thing. The team leader ignores what is in the forest. Those are things that big people should worry about. He only needs to make sure that there are no dark biological weapons like guards in his line of sight.

The captain certainly wouldn't know that the yellow mist was actually a ripening agent released by the brood. In the area covered by the yellow fog, the trees in the original forest withered in one day, and their plant essence was all converted into energy for the mother's nest to absorb.

The three broods are located right in the center of this area. The brood looks like a hill-sized fat insect with a light brown breastplate and a row of short, thick legs on both sides. Dragging a flat long tail that is three meters long, when the tail passes over the ground, it will leave a light yellow liquid.

Now these three intermediate production units are all lying prone on the ground. In the middle of them, the ground sank at some point, and the sunken part is filled with light green liquid, looking like a small lake.

There are countless milky white follicles floating in the lake, and in each follicle, a tiny weapon embryo can be seen. Around the lakeshore, numerous intertwined and complex rhizomes spread. They are like the roots of some kind of plant, and they are like transmission tubes. As this web of rhizomes finally radiated out, there were hundreds of strange trees that grew up overnight.

These dark brown weird trees have no leaves, bare trunks, and a few half-meter-high gray and white cocoons hang under the few branches. Light flickers in the cocoon bubble from time to time, and the shadow of a certain creature appears at the same time.

In fact, these strange trees and small lakes are the production tools of the brood. After being promoted, Brood has abandoned the original production method. They build deep wells with liquid energy and create strange trees equivalent to cultivation tanks. Then the fetal eggs of the biological weapons are directly discharged into the deep liquid well. When those weird trees spread their roots into the deep to extract energy liquid for their own needs, the follicles will randomly follow the energy liquid to reach a certain tree. The strange tree, then the strange tree completes the breeding process from follicle to cocoon formation.

At the same time, the mother nest will also release ripening mists, which form a natural protective layer covering the production area, and at the same time can be absorbed by the meat cocoons, thereby accelerating the growth of biological weapons in the meat cocoons.

The scene of mass production of weapons on this assembly line is similar to that of Prosius producing the first batch of assault worms underground on the island of Ryukyu that day.

One day passed quickly, and when night fell, the first meat cocoon fell to the ground. The wall of the cocoon broke, and a humanoid weapon measuring only about 150 centimeters in length came out of the cocoon. It quickly tore the meat cocoon completely, still carrying a viscous cocoon fluid on its body. After getting out of the cocoon, this thing first ate the mucus on the cocoon and body.

Following his body snapping loudly, his body grew about ten centimeters taller and replaced with a pair of dark light armor. The living body armor flows with a metal-like luster, and biological weapons like this continue to appear. In a blink of an eye, there are more than five hundred humanoid weapons in the forest. They are the Quean knights who can fight with the lizard dragon. After the Quean knights complete the rapid transition from larval to mature, the larval shell they have fallen off is cooling, gradually becoming cold and hard from the soft shell.

The Quean knights will collect the shells from which they are separated, spout energy flames with both hands, and weld these hard shells to grow two-meter swords. When the hard shells are completely cooled, they become harder than metal, and their weight has increased a lot, becoming an epee. The Que'an knight put his hands together and wiped the edge of the blade, and a layer of debris fell off immediately, and the original rough blade became sharp.

After completing the production of the weapon, the knight dragged the epee out of the forest. The lizard dragon, which had been waiting for a long time, sprang out from all corners of the forest. Each knight picked a lizard dragon and jumped on it. Immediately, there were 500 more saurian dragoons with both mobility and strength in the zero army.

When Ansura reported the newly born Quean knight to Zero through the core, Zero was in the temporary camp reviewing the battle damage report. After obtaining the basic data of the Que'an knight through the core, as well as the increase in combat power after matching with the lizard dragon, Zero is very satisfied. After the combination of the knight and the lizard dragon, the destructive power is comparable to the Paladin mecha of the Western Continent.

Even if it is the improved version of the Paladin mecha, the individual combat power is equal to that of the Lizard Dragoon. The production speed of mechas is limited, and the pilots need time to train, but the Quean knights produced by the brood take only about 24 hours. If the resources are sufficient, the brood can continuously produce Quean knights, and after a month, Zero will have more than 10,000 cavalry.

This kind of rapid production speed is not comparable to mecha.

With the Lizard Dragoon, the combat power of the Zero Legion will increase by 30%, which is definitely a big help!

With zero assistance, the lizard dragon returned to the breeding grounds in order to reintegrate with the Que'an knights into a new army. As for the other biological weapons, they were scattered among the nearby forests and mountains, waiting for the opportunity of the next attack. Zero Heart thought, next time he is dispatched, if there is no accident, he should go straight to the location of Prosius. But before that, whether it is Zero or Douglas, it will take time for the army to rest.

They still have many things to do. The wounded need to be recuperated, the equipment needs to be repaired, and the army still needs to increase its personnel. And the most important problem is that they still don't know where Prosius is hiding. But on this point, Anzura can do it for him. He captured enough guards, even some arbitrators. These biological weapons have their own connection with Prosius, and Ansura can use these biological weapons to perform reverse analysis to find out the location of Prosius.

However, it will take time.

Zero continued to look at the battle damage report at hand. This time, because of the underground legion's role as the vanguard, the number of deaths and injuries of the coalition forces between humans and foreign forces was within an acceptable range. In Dawn City, more than two thousand people were killed in battle, hundreds of serious injuries, and countless minor injuries. More than 50 tanks were destroyed, of which 100 can be repaired.

Looking at the string of numbers on the report, he shook his head and smiled bitterly. Recalling that when I entered the wilderness at the beginning of the year, I was carrying a hundred yuan. At that time, when the mission was given, the death of the people around him was an intuitive impact, unlike now, just a few numbers. But when these numbers are linked to life, they appear very heavy. What Zero can do is try to keep these numbers as small as possible.

This is also the responsibility of being a lord.

The next day, ordered by Leo, the army of the parliament intends to continue northward. They want to return to Yongye City. Although most of the city has been destroyed, at least the fringe areas can be restored. Moreover, the two underground material warehouses were not implicated by the big bang, and many strategic materials in them are currently in short supply by the parliament. Leo’s plan is to rebuild the remaining city into a front-line base to monitor and prevent Prosius’ troops from coming again.

As for Douglas, he intends to return to Asgart. The army in the Hall of Valor needs to regain its strength and wait for Ansura to obtain the coordinates of Prosius before making any plans. It was impossible for Zero to stay in the wilderness, but he didn't even think about returning to Dawn City. At least there is no need for the army to travel long distances back to the hinterland of the mainland. He wants to place the army in Phoenix.

First, Phoenix is ​​located within the coastline, and in the event of an emergency, it can also assist each other with the parliamentary army; second, Ansura seems to intend to transform the forest area near the Blue Mountain Range into a breeding ground for biological weapons. The location is adjacent to the Blu-ray Mountains. Once there is friction with the council, Brown, who stayed in Phoenix to manage the army, can come forward in time to negotiate.

As for Zero himself, both public and private have to return to Dawn City.

In this way, the three forces on the Central Continent went to each other temporarily.

Although the Black Legion had been smashed, Zero did not feel relieved at all, because there was still a Star Destroyer missing. After the thing dived into the sea, it disappeared and didn't know where it went.

At this moment of summer, even the coldest area of ​​the Central Continent is located in the frozen plains of the West. For at least 300 days of the year, the snow and ice covering the surface has melted quietly. In just over 60 days in summer, the surface will take on its original appearance. Until sixty days later, the snow and ice will return again, turning everything into silver again.

On the fringe of the tundra, a steep cliff like a knife-cut zigzags towards the northeast. After advancing for hundreds of kilometers, the terrain of this special coastline tends to be flat. The relatively gentle area borders the sea, forming a large sandy beach. On this beach, a large number of burrowing crabs come out of their nests and come to the beach every summer.

This is a busy season, and the burrowing crabs that have evolved abnormally will take advantage of this short period of warmer weather to mate and reproduce. For saber-toothed seals, burrowing crabs all over the floor are undoubtedly a crawling food. Therefore, when summer arrives, this beach will become a stage for burrowing crabs and saber-toothed seals. Dense burrowing crabs will occupy this beach, and thousands of seals can eat round their bodies.

However, this year seems to be an exception.

When Dongfang Lubai was full of crabs on the beach. The saber-toothed seal began to climb up the beach, just about to start a whole day of gluttonous feast. Suddenly, the sea water turned red first, and a crimson water band approached from far away, dyeing all the sea water near the beach to red. Then the sea rolled back without warning, which was obviously long before the low tide, and the saber-toothed seal felt vaguely uneasy.

The uneasiness in the heart made these greedy guys let the crabs crawl around under their noses, but not many seals would catch them. These chubby animals looked at the sea in the distance. The inverted sea water continued to accumulate on the sea in the distance, and the sea level climbed at a speed visible to the naked eye. The sea-smelling wind blows from the sea, which makes the seals feel more uneasy.

Finally, when the sea surface had risen for ten meters, a sea wall swept over. Seal Zhang Pan sounded on the beach, these gourmets no longer cared about the delicacy on the beach, rushing to the beach. Because behind them is a devastating tsunami!

Unfortunately, no matter how hard the saber-toothed seals work hard, they can't move faster than the sea wall. Finally, this continuous wave of waves hit the beach heavily, and tens of thousands of burrowing crabs were directly fragmented under the violent impact. Only with this slap, the waves surged onto the beach and went deep into the beach. The mountains are hundreds of meters away. When the sea rolled back, the entire beach became a vast ocean, with numerous crab corpses and saber-toothed seals floating on it.

After the disaster, only a few poor seals survived. As these guys struggled to float to the surface, they heard a deep roar from the sea. A huge head gradually emerged from the sea level, the Star Destroyer that had appeared in Yongye City and slipped into the bottom of the sea. After disappearing for nearly a month, it appeared in the extreme west of the Central Continent.

Under the action of the anti-gravity organs, the Star Destroyer leaped away from the sea forcibly, and tons of seawater continued to pour down from both sides of its body, forming hundreds of large and small water columns. The Star Destroyer made a roar, and the fins on both sides swept, like a fish swimming in the water, the giant giant flew towards the beach. When it reached the sky above the beach, the abdomen of the Star Destroyer cracked a gap, and then fraternal eggs dripping with body fluids spewed out of it, and then continued to fall towards the beach.

After a while, this beach has been given a new group of owners. More than 30,000 fraternal eggs occupied the beach, and soon after they fell to the ground they began to tremble, and then only the guards got out of the egg shell. At this time, the sea continued to recede, and finally the water level on the beach only reached the guard's knee. After these things broke out of the shell, they took the egg shell as the first food, followed by seals and crab carcasses, but everything that could be eaten became their food.

Even so, after swallowing everything that can be eaten on the beach like a violent wind, the guard did not stop eating because of this. Some of the guards began to tear down the same kind, devour the corpse, and soon entered the pre-transformation state of sleep. The rest of the guards did not move further, they stayed on the beach, becoming guards of the same kind in evolution.

The Star Destroyer uttered a low hum, as if after giving a certain order, it flapped its wings and flew towards the mountains. After expelling the more than 30,000 guardian fraternal eggs, its breath became very weak. The Star Destroyer finally entered the mountainous area, and the huge aura gradually disappeared.

Three days later, more than a thousand guards completed the evolution. Their shells turned into a scarlet color, and beetle wings grew behind them, capable of transforming biological energy into explosive fireballs. After awakening from the full version of the guard with the ability to dominate the air, he led the army away from the beach. They headed northwest and cut into the tundra two days later.

If the forward course of the Guardian Corps does not change, they will arrive in a city two days later.

Green Capital!

"Master Merlin! Master Merlin!"

On a faintly bright morning ~lightnovelpub.net~Red Grand Duke Merlin is waving his tomahawk and blazing judgment. The scarlet battle axe flew up and down, intertwined with a bright red light curtain, and the red archduke was in this light curtain. When the tomahawk dances, the remaining light curtain in the air is still good for a long time.

The door of the fighting hall was pushed open, and a scholar from Ludu rushed in. The scholar was not good at physical strength, and his fast running made him gasp again and again, watching Merlin shook his head straight. After the scholar was relieved, Mei Lin asked, "Early in the morning, what is this panicking?"

"Quick, you have to take a look. It's a success, it's a success..." The scholar raised his head and said happily: "We have found a substitute for the sky stone, which is a refined element. It is efficient, pure, Without radiation. The only shortcoming is that it will reduce the purification range and quality of the Nethreis Shield, but it has reached the vision proposed by the Dawn City that day."

"If this element is mass-produced, then a new era of cleanliness is bound to come!" the scholar said excitedly.

Merlin also beamed with joy and said, "Go, take me to see."

The Red Duke is naturally excited. If all this can be achieved, then this will realize that a chapter in a new era will be opened in their hands. What an exciting thing this is!
