Chapter 606: Big River
Regroup and fight against the Old Gods.
On July 28, there are less than 72 hours left before the very important "August 0" in Dahe Worship.
In order to prevent the rebirth of the Goddess of the Great River, various companies formed an intervention army to search for traces of the "Servants of the Great River".
If the Goddess of the Great River is awakened, the entire southern region will become her divine kingdom on earth, and the fate of hundreds of millions of people will be ruled.
The torrential rain continued, and 102 sat at the exit of a military shuttle, kicking his feet in the air, and his eyes fell on the rain-soaked forest below.
Most of the southern region is covered by tropical vegetation, and the eyes are full of crazy green plants. Garbage discarded at will also piles up into mountains, and ring-shaped pollution circles often appear in the dense forest. There is nothing but high piles of garbage. The surrounding land is deeply corroded, and no living things can survive.
The Golden Cicada River gushes from the north, like a pale giant python, passing through the dense forest in the southern region, and entering the sea from Jialongpo. It looks as if it has been cut into six or seven sections.
Occasionally, there are some ruins on the shore. The stucco base is bare, and the gold leaf wrapping outside has been stripped off. We can only infer how magnificent the temple of the Goddess of the River was from the scale of the ruins.
102 felt a little nervous inside, and couldn't tell what was more frightening. The legendary page peacock? Unkillable white salamander? Nervous locals? A conglomerate with ulterior motives? Or the enigmatic River Goddess and her followers?
As always, eating gave her peace of mind, and she opened the lower half of her mask to stuff donuts and beef strips into her mouth, which may be why she is so plump and 101 is thinner. 102 has grown too big.
Qian Meng sat next to 102, also stretched out her feet and swayed in the air, she could only see 102's big cup from the side, and could hardly see anything else, while 101 sat at her own position to check the scanner.
They searched for the location of the ceremony, but it was a difficult process.
After thousands of years of inheritance, there are at least four to five hundred ritual sites that can be used to sacrifice to the Goddess of the Great River, all of which are hidden in the dense forests in the Great River Basin. Not easy.
102 I have seen photos and attack reports. There are ferocious beasts in the forest, and tribal people excluded from urban life. There are at least a few million aborigines. They hunt among them, subtly attracted by occultism, and are willing to become the goddess of the river. The mystic order provides cover.
Why don't you live in the city? Are the natives of these woods unwilling to accept city life? Now the company has a history of 150 years, and it has been a century and a half since the end of the Great War. 102 thought vaguely.
But they... are not qualified at all. What modern factories need is educated and highly educated labor force. Forest dwellers are accompanied by bark mosquitoes all day long. In the eyes of enterprises, they are almost like uncivilized monkeys. 102 himself also understood.
The company treats Aboriginal people the same way it treats animals.
102 picked up the panel terminal in his hand, and a new prompt popped up on it.
At a distance of 5.5 kilometers from them, a contingent of the Yongyi Company slaughtered a village in which 450 people participated in some kind of life-binding ritual, related to the sacrifice of the goddess of the river, so they had to be killed, weakening the river Goddess of influence.
The torrential rain kept falling, and there were constant sounds in the distance, like gunshots.
According to the report, 102 calculated the location of the massacred village in their minds, and when they looked around, they saw black smoke rising from that direction. They should have set fire to most of the buildings and killed all the villagers.
"It's too cruel." Qian Meng saw all this.
"Cruel?" 102 was puzzled.
Unlike those empathetic and sentimental people, 102 is insensitive to most carnage.
"You are too indifferent." Qian Meng frowned.
"People are killed and die, like a certain pattern. Do you know how many people die every day?" 102 said simply.
Qian Meng searched.
"1,250,112 people died yesterday." Qian Meng herself was taken aback, this is the calculation of the new artificial intelligence "All-Seeing Eye" of the company alliance.
"Bang!" 102 gestured, "This million people don't want to die, a million times of misfortune."
"You're too young to understand." Qian Meng knew that sending 102, who was less than 7 years old, to the battlefield was not a good thing.
102 smiled and lowered his head to eat.
"The endless violence of this generation is a foregone conclusion. We also kill people, but a little compassion can prove that we still have humanity." Qianmeng persuaded.
"Although... nothing can be changed." 102 muttered.
102 also likes an innocent and romantic life, but she knows that she has to find a way to live for decades before she can see a better era.
Military shuttles patrolled north over the jungle, their cannon and missile arrays aimed below.
They remain vigilant.
"The ruts are deep, and the enemy has heavy weapons." The scout reported.
"Including main battle tanks and missile armored vehicles..."
"What we are going to face is not the guerrillas in the jungle, but the quasi-regular army!" Information is being exchanged on the communication channels of other companies.
"Where did they get the weapons?" Qian Meng was a little surprised when she saw the news.
"It may have been eliminated from a certain company war, and it was transported ashore by the patrons of the secret order through some channel." 101 looked down for clues.
Some of the most powerful of them may be armed with power armor, Gauss rifles and laser assault rifles, armor of unique patterns, painted from head to toe, like a peacock.
"Dead people bring good results." 102 saw new news on the tablet.
The Nemesis Corp's biomedical engineering team had arrived at the village that had just been slaughtered, and they had extracted enough memory fragments from the minds of the fresh dead to point to a very likely ritual site.
Locked on the location of the Great River Servant, which is marked as Site 208 on the map.
"All units, please move quickly to Site 208!"
The Nemesis Syndicate invites all armed groups to march towards the ceremony point.
It is about 75 kilometers apart, located in the upper reaches of a tributary of the river, and is a temple site with a long history.
Finally found this group of secret ceremonies, as long as they are killed, the goddess of the river will not be able to recover. People can't help but move towards the same goal.
The battle of Jialongpo is facing the final test. 102's heart was pounding.
"The power of Master Faroza..." 102 looked at Qian Meng.
"Don't worry." Qian Meng hid the fragments in her pocket.
102 Looking far away, I saw the continuous rainstorm, and two reconnaissance planes passed by at the end of the dark clouds.
The two aircraft passed the edge of 102's line of sight, then seemed to crash into a large air bubble, and then disappeared without a trace.
It seems to be swallowed by a secret realm.
Ruins 208 is weird!
"The plane has disappeared, and the front is not safe." 102 pulled Qian Meng back into the cabin, and closed the door forcefully.
As they approach the ritual point, all the laws of reality are distorted and changed.
"There is an abnormal reality area ahead!" The driver shouted loudly, and the height of the shuttle dropped rapidly.
The corporate intervention army shared intelligence, and various reconnaissance tools assembled a complete radar imaging map. A huge annular hole appeared on it, and all signals disappeared as soon as they entered the abnormal area ahead.
"What to do next?" Qian Meng asked.
"Be prepared before intervening in the situation." 102 said skillfully.
Qianmeng feels that 102 has become very complicated, sometimes like an adult, sometimes like a child, the grand battlefield is a difficult test for 102, she must be flexible and changeable.
After determining the ceremony site, all parties are in a tense situation preparing to enter the No. 208 site.
Ahead is the anomalous area of reality, and no one knows what will happen.
The driver took the shuttle to the edge of the ring, waiting to join forces with other companies.
Those large war machines approached quickly, arriving at the suspicious ceremony point. From the outside, it looked exactly like the rainforest in other areas, but all the detectors couldn't investigate the details inside. Crossing the line will disappear.
"The two reconnaissance planes we sent have disappeared in the area, and no news has returned." The correspondent of the Nemesis Group explained.
"Attention all units, the secret ceremony group of the Goddess of the Great River is likely to perform rituals in the area ahead of us. Please ask your superiors for instructions and confirm the time when you can intervene in the conflict." Jin Yuxiu, the ruler of the Yongyi Group, announced.
The shuttle they were traveling in descended slowly, collecting weapons and ammunition, and gathering manpower.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Jing came driving her small consumer-grade plane, the power of the engine gradually decreased, and her shuttle landed next to the white shuttle of Nisto Corporation.
"Lu Jing!" Linyin stood up.
"Finally finished. Wait a minute, why are you here? I thought you were in the hotel!" Lu Jing was disheveled, with her Fuyao Sword and Bafang Zhenjin behind her back.
"I have revenge." Linyin looked coldly at Aiden Crusher in the Nemesis group camp in the distance.
In order to kill him, Linyin has made many preparations and carefully polished her hacking program.
"I'll help you!" Lu Jing was eager to try.
"Report the count." 102 jumped down and pointed at the head, "I, you, her. Mr. Pilot, seven sharp soldiers, twenty-nine special airborne commandos, Qian Xue, Jiro, Lin Yin, Lu Jing , Miying, good! Listen to me, we are going to fight, it may be a very difficult battle, because those rituals and so on, it must be a critical time, less than three days away from August 0th, maybe they have already summoned Almost there. Who doesn't want to fight? Say it now."
Shechang Qianxue wanted to leave with her younger brother for a while. They were only moderately powerful spellcasters who had learned well, and it seemed that they were not qualified to participate in the battle of Jialongpo.
But after thinking about it, everyone is fighting here, how can they give in lightly?
No one wants to leave.
Nisto Corporation front, join the fight.
Linyin looked fiercely at Aiden Crusher in the distance, and at this time he was scanning the abnormal area in front of him.
"We'd better go in on foot." Nisto's driver said, "It's some kind of anomalous area inside, the shuttle may not work normally, and no one knows what's going on inside..."
"Leaf authorized us to act freely." 101 received the order from Ye Zi.
"It's time to go, there can only be one god in this world." 102 strode forward.
Other military units have also received orders, and their expectation is to wait for the opportunity to move. If other companies go first, they will follow immediately.
At this time, seeing the Nisto Company launching an march, they also mobilized their troops to the position where the Nisto Company entered, and imitated their example, stopped the war weapons, and entered on foot with advanced equipment.
"Further ahead is the anomalous area, and its scale seems to be expanding." The observer of the Nemesis Group reported to the public communication channel.
"Using short-wave communication to keep in touch with all enterprises, this is the biggest test we face." Jin Yuxiu said in a morale-boosting tone.
What Jin Yuxiu did next made 102 feel admirable, because the other party directly spread out the golden steel wings, and with one huge wing, the whole person entered the abnormal area first!
"She disappeared!" Everyone outside saw that Jin Yuxiu disappeared without a trace after crossing a certain boundary, as if completely lost in the abnormal zone.
"She may have been thrown hundreds of years ago, and may have fallen into the memory of the goddess of the river! We will also encounter similar things, so what should we do?" Qian Meng thought wildly.
"Then we have more reason to help her." 102 stood up straight, and she crossed the boundary line second.
102 also disappeared behind the line.
"All preparations, enter the abnormal area!" Each company unit issued an order.
"There are also small cars!" 101 turned his head to look at the mirror cars used to fight against the peacocks on the pages, but he was very worried about whether they could work safely.
After the intervention army has assembled, it is ready to completely annihilate the opponent just like the company alliance did to the disciples of the River Goddess.
... into the anomalous area!
