Chapter 1390 Giant Beasts Fight Each Other
According to the deduction of Mirmina, the goddess of magic, the current state of the entire wasteland is actually equivalent to an out-of-control and internally closed "abnormal energy field". On this land, a large-scale and unquenchable magical tremor has formed, and according to the "Unified Wave Theory", the boundary between "real" and "virtual" in this world is blurred and variable, so the out-of-control energy field It means that the material world will also go out of control, some things will be generated out of thin air in the energy focus, some things that should have died will be reassembled and reproduced, and people without protection will suffer irreversible damage in this energy field.
This is the truth of the wasteland—and the "healing" of the wasteland by the blocking wall is essentially "smoothing" and "filtering" of this large-scale abnormal energy field.
A sufficient number of purification devices are connected to form a long barrier, like building a breakwater in the waves. The magical turbulence that has been vibrating seven hundred years ago will gradually weaken in front of this barrier until its strength and intensity are reduced below the threshold, thus Losing the interference and influence on the material world, it becomes a normal magic shock again, and all kinds of weird phenomena and spreading pollution and corruption in the wasteland will quickly end with the disappearance of the source.
But for a long time, this is actually only a theoretical result. Although almost everyone who knows the inside story thinks that there is no problem with Mirmina's calculations, but with the erection of towers, the battle situation develops and changes day by day, people Still can't help but feel a little bit of worry - will the blocking wall really work? Will the wasteland of Gondor, which has been entrenched on this planet for seven centuries, dissipate naturally because of a few artificial filter barriers?
The purification device itself is indeed effective. It can create a "safe environment" close to the outside of the wasteland within a certain range. However, to confirm whether the blocking wall can really affect the entire wasteland, the key still depends on the In areas not yet covered by the purification device, whether the environment has undergone chain changes as calculated.
The delicate little flower trembled gently in the breeze, and it bloomed in this dark and corrupted land, before the frontline purification tower was fully activated—this meant that before Typhon's army advanced here, This tenacious plant has already taken root on this land and survived successfully. It may have been when spring just arrived, when the blocking wall was only laid less than a quarter...
Its seeds may have come on a southerly wind, but to Andersa it didn't matter where they came from—its bloom could inspire everyone.
The young female knight named Marianne gave the flower to Andersa, and the latter bid farewell to the soldiers. She returned to her barracks with a little excitement, picked up a pen and paper, and prepared to write a letter. Letter to Aldernan - With the aid of new technologies such as image scanning, magic net transmission and off-site printing, a copy of this letter can appear before Her Majesty Rosetta Augustus in a few minutes , and the "photo" of the little flower will also be sent back.
Andersa picked up the pen, glanced at the little flowers on the table again, and then her eyes fell on the white letter paper,
Thousands of thoughts fluctuated in her heart. After ten minutes of ups and downs, she looked up at the silver-haired female adjutant standing aside: "Help me think about how to write..."
The female adjutant immediately sat down on the opposite side of the table, and began to ghostwrite with ease, muttering as she wrote: "I saw that you wrote so confidently, I thought you had thought it through this time..."
There was a trace of sigh in Andersa's tone: "... People always have areas that they are not good at."
...
A hazy and thick energy shield covered the ground. This astonishingly large-scale barrier made the entire Old Emperor City seem to be sealed in the depths of a pale blue shimmering giant egg, and at the core of the "giant egg", one could vaguely I saw a bright and brilliant blue beam of light burning blazingly. Around the beam of light, there are a large number of veins extending on the ground, as well as soldiers and automatic war mechanisms that are moving towards the edge of the "Giant Egg".
This is the core area of the wasteland of Gondor, where the ruins of the old imperial capital are located. The brilliance of the Deep Blue Well still shines on this land—but at the border where the light shines, the entire surface has been covered by layers of disgusting horrors .
The wasteland army gathered here, and the power of the entire wasteland was also concentrated here. The projection of chaotic magic energy raged on the battlefield, and the entire area had been alienated into an unimaginable state. The black-red tide, the shapeless energy surges between them, making these deformed and blasphemous things seem to be in the gap between reality and illusion at all times, a layer of thick fog-like material floats on the surface of the earth, and the thick fog undulates , a large number of indistinct limbs and illusory roars spread around.
In the direction of the Deep Blue Well, a silver-gray guard tower stood on the edge of the defense belt. A white light flashed on the top of the tower, and a dazzling ball of light whizzed into the center of the tide composed of distortions, accompanied by a huge explosion. The shock, the center of the Kuroshio was torn open a huge gap, but the nearby dense fog re-gathered in the blink of an eye - black and red arcs surged in the fog, shapeless flesh and vague murmurs echoed in the air Appeared, and new monsters emerged from it, rushing towards the direction of the energy barrier.
Tall iron soldiers rushed out from the passage below the barrier. These man-made warriors, whose appearance was almost identical to that of humans, fiercely faced enemies whose numbers were several times their own. They flew light blades in their hands, or continuously projected power into the distance Powerful magic missiles, they are not afraid of pain, and they will not die easily. Even if they suffer injuries that are fatal to ordinary people, most of them can calmly retreat to the recovery channel near the barrier under the cover of friendly troops. Return to the factory deep in the earth for repairs on a series of high-speed transport tracks.
This is no longer the "battlefield" in the usual concept of human beings. Whether it is the warring parties or the battlefield itself, serious alienation and distortion have occurred in the crazy and out-of-control magic shock.
The soldiers of the Iron Man Corps fought fiercely with the aberrations at the edge of the real world. The invisible magic tide behind the aberrations and the huge energy released by the large shield of the Deep Blue Well were constantly eroding each other. The destroyed monsters projected In the form of "returning to the world", the artificial soldiers who have just been repaired return to the battlefield again and again through the underground passages. In this fierce battle, the boundary between reality and illusion is violently shaking like the reflection of the water surface that is about to break, and it is crumbling. The balance seems to be broken in an instant.
And behind the two bloody battle regiments, the commanders of both sides are facing each other in the distance, deploying huge resources through indifferent calculations, maintaining this killing feast on the broken battlefield of reality and illusion.
Deep Blue Well, the deepest part of the underground bunker surrounded by layers of reinforced armor, internal stand stabilizers, and reinforced concrete composite defense belts. Bright lights illuminate the control center hall. In this huge room, Ophelia More than a dozen processing nodes in the matrix are emitting a low humming sound. Huge amounts of data are rushing through the nodes like cubic columns one after another. In the midair between the processing nodes, scenes of clear holographic images are floating. projection.
Those projections are real-time images collected by composite sensors on the edge of the battlefield, and they are also the most intense battle zones on the entire battlefield.
"...The K-3 shield generator group is damaged and offline, the redundant unit has been activated, the load is too high, and the shield pressure is being rebalanced..."
"126 Combat Squadron is all lost, the body failed to recover independently... The recovery team is going to recover the body... The T-226 traffic track is broken, and the path of the recovery team is being re-planned..."
"Warning, the mental core reserves are insufficient, and the efficiency of Ironman's maintenance array is declining...the priority of the production line is being reset, and the mental core reserves are expected to return to the threshold in seventy-two hours..."
"Warning, the No. 26 defense wall signal is abnormal, and the barrier is suspected to have penetrated. The nearest patrol unit is being mobilized... Encountering an enemy, our troops are engaging the enemy... The battle is over, and we are on alert. The barrier is expected to be restored in twelve minutes."
The voice of Veronica/Ophelia echoed in this empty hall, and echoed among the processing nodes. The voice sounded extremely mechanical and cold, almost devoid of what a human being should be. At this moment, a holographic projection in the center of the hall suddenly flashed and switched to a scene in the distance——
In the center of the picture, one can see a terrifying thing of astonishing scale entrenched on the ground. It seems to be formed by the accumulation of countless twisted vines, shapeless flesh and deformed bones, like the back of a giant flesh and blood beast. A forest grew on the ground, and it seemed that flesh and blood were bred in a distorted forest. This terrifying thing that could not be classified biologically covered the whole place like a combination of various nightmares. A hill, and there are countless dark red shimmers flowing and converging inside it. At this moment, a certain structure on the top of it is rapidly rising, and a translucent thing like a cystic blood bubble grows out of it. The strong light surged, as if there was terrible energy contained in it.
"The unknown biological giant is active again, confirming the high-energy response... The energy of the Deep Blue Well is being redistributed to the shield system, the countdown to the target launch, three, two, one..."
A strong light flashed on the monitoring screen, and the top of the "mountain" composed of vines of flesh and blood exploded in the distance. The translucent swelling exploded, and a ball of dazzling light flew out of it, and shot straight towards the dark blue sky. The direction of the well fell down.
"Confirm target launch, prepare for impact resistance, countdown to impact, three, two, one..."
Almost all images were disturbed at this moment, the energy shield above the Deep Blue Well flickered violently at this moment, terrifying ripples almost covered the entire barrier, and a low muffled sound was transmitted to the Deep underground, more than half of the passages and shafts are rumbling, and the control hall is also shaking slightly. There is a trace of disturbance in Veronica/Ophelia's voice: "...shot, calculate the damage...K The shield generators from -6 to K-12 were severely damaged, and the shield was partially broken down, and the shield system began to be repaired... There are hostile units intruding into the interior of the defense wall, and the imperial guards are being dispatched to clear it..."
...
A violent wave of light appeared on the surface of the shimmering "Giant Egg" in the distance. After the terrible annihilation process, the "Calamity Bullet" turned into countless surging streams of flames, pouring over the protective layer like a torrential rain. The surface of the shield flowed and fell.
The impact caused by firing the calamity bullet was transmitted in this huge "body", waves appeared between the shapeless flesh and blood, and the tough "vessels" and "nerves" collapsed on the spot after firing However, after a brief regeneration process, several organs dedicated to providing energy fell into an overheated state in a short period of time, and the body fluids were boiled in the chamber, turning into blood-colored steam from the edge of this twisted forest It gushed out, and a larger number of spare organs quickly took over the overheated part, gathering huge magic power for the next launch.
And in this process, this "body" is still growing, and the last priests are performing assimilation in the depths of this flesh and blood tissue. Their fanatical and dirty power continues to gather, and even let the Bo Erken felt a little dazed.
In the center of this "twisted forest" formed by the intertwined growth of flesh, bones, and plants, the tough biomass closed into a hall with a dome, and a "tree" with a vaguely human form was taking root in the slightly undulating, On the glowing ground, feeling the complex nerve feedback from all parts of the "body", Borken slightly opened his eyes. His face was older than before, his body was more distorted than before, and his yellow-brown eyes seemed to be trapped in In a half-dream and half-awake state like a dream, he slightly twitched his stiff limbs—for an instant, the entire twisted forest entrenched on the hill roared like an earthquake.
"Failed to break through... the shield..." Borken murmured softly as if talking to himself, "Re-charge..."
The sound of footsteps came from not far away, and the figures of the twin elves appeared in this "hall"—in essence, this "hall" is actually an organ in Borken's body at this moment, his "brain ventricle" ——They came to the treant in the middle of the hall, and the dim light in the hall made their faces blurred as if they were hidden in a dream.
"Grand Master, we have just returned from the deep area, and the last batch of compatriots have integrated into your body," Leierna said, "Now you should be able to feel the influx of power—after a few days. The fusion will be completed will be done."
"I can... feel..." Borken's cloudy eyes fell on the Elf Twins, his voice hesitated, as if it took a while to recognize who the figure in front of him was, and then it took a while to recall How to communicate with it, "Power, is welling up in me... Destroy that fortress... It's only a matter of time..."
"Of course, you are very powerful now—but don't forget our original purpose, we don't want to destroy that fortress, what we need is the huge energy inside," Fierna said softly, "put your root It is more important to get into those energy conduits and use the rune stones we released in advance to control these energies than to destroy that fortress."
"Yes, control it..." Borken said in a low voice, but then frowned as if in pain, "Chaotic thoughts are surging in my mind, and I find it difficult to concentrate..."
"This is a normal phenomenon, Grand Priest," Leierna laughed, "You are integrating the power and will of the entire sect into yourself, and in the process, you are promoted to a powerful existence like a god. It is not an easy task... Before the fusion is completed, those wills are still thinking independently, and of course they will interfere with your thoughts. But don't worry, this situation will improve soon, and when those messy wills disappear...you can Only one voice will be heard."
"This...is very good." Borken murmured softly.
"Yes, it's very good." Leierna and Fierna smiled like flowers.
