Chapter 52: The Gourd Traveling Around the World

"Bah!" Big Pot Rice got up from the ground and spat out the seawater in his mouth. "This thing is really powerful!"

"You can't build a heaven or a chicken coop if you're not strong enough, right?"

Hongyue walked over and threw the control crystal over. I caught it and she took out the Haotian Mirror. "I'll track it, you'll be in charge."

"Okay." I first looked up at the divine arrow launcher standing there, then stepped back a few steps to the side before holding the crystal and shooting.

The launch platform received the signal from the control crystal and quickly turned and adjusted its angle. A small cover opened with a snap on the top of the launch platform. boom! A large ball of flames spewed out from both ends of the launch platform at the same time, and a magic missile jumped out from the front end.

The big pot of rice happened to be standing downwind, choking on the smoke and coughing. "This thing is really smoking from both ends!"

"Stop complaining, it will be good if it is useful!"

The flying speed of the magic missile is quite fast, and the gourd is quickly caught up, but we are not going to experiment yet. The distance is too close. If it really explodes, I don't want to rebuild Isinger again. I control the magic missile to swing and fly there, so that I can reduce the speed and follow the gourd without overtaking it.

Hongyue stood next to me holding the Haotian Mirror. What was shown on the screen was the chaotic gourd of heaven and earth and the bunch of chasing gods. Originally, I thought they would keep chasing like this, so I kept controlling the magic missile to hang far behind. Anyway, with the speed of the missile, it was easy to catch up at this distance. But I forgot one thing.

China has national borders, and Chinese gods cannot run around. The system restricts these gods from leaving the country. They cannot leave the border, so Heaven will actively support me in expanding my territory. If I expand the territory, it means expanding their scope of activities. This is their goal, but currently our borders still have borders.

Qiankun Gourd is not an NPC. It is not restricted by system treaties, and the only conditions that control it are the laws of nature. It crossed China's territorial sea boundary line and entered the high seas without any hindrance, but the gods were suddenly stopped as if they hit a wall.

A bunch of immortals were stuck on the invisible wall like hot cakes, and then slowly slid down the wall one by one.

"Pfft... Hahahaha..." Hongyue couldn't help but laugh, and the big pot rice spurted out all the drink that had just been poured into his mouth to change the salty taste of sea water.

It seems that I am not the only one who has forgotten the boundary line. The gods have also forgotten to apply it, otherwise they would not hit the boundary! This boundary is ineffective for us players, but it can intercept these gods. Although they are all powerful, they are still powerless against the main system.

"Missile!" A relatively alert member behind me suddenly remembered that the missile was still behind him and shouted out quickly.

Suddenly I heard the reminder and reacted. I controlled the crystal and quickly directed the missile to twist a strange curve and pass through the gap between the gods. Fortunately, I didn't hit the gods, otherwise it would be troublesome to explain!

After crossing the border, the gourd plunged into the storm belt. Just as the missile was about to follow, the gourd flew out of it again. Before I could control it, the missiles collided head-on with each other.

boom! The image displayed in the Haotian Mirror was covered in flames. Magic missiles are weapons used against cities and are very powerful. Such air explosions will naturally shoot out flames. But the flame didn't last long. A water column shot out from the fire, and then the gourd flew out from the opposite side of the water column.

"Oh my God! Where is it going to fly?" Big Pot Rice couldn't help shouting.

The result of the collision between the gourd and the missile came out. The missile failed to destroy the gourd. It did change the direction of the gourd's flight, but the change in direction was beyond imagination. The gourd of heaven and earth actually flew up into the sky like a rocket.

"This guy won't become a satellite, right?" Hongyue looked at the gourd that was getting further and further away in a daze.

The Haotian Mirror can observe the entire area of ​​the earth that is not obscured by magic, but the sky above does not count the scope of the earth. The picture of the Haotian Mirror chased the gourd up to the limit and then stopped moving. The gourd flew into the blue starry sky and gradually went away. Huge water columns fell from the sky. It’s as if the Milky Way has turned into a waterfall!

"What should we do now? That guy flew out of the surveillance range!" Da Guofan asked.

"By the way, Tower of Babel." Hongyue called.

"Isn't that thing damaged?" I remember the last time the city was destroyed, the Tower of Babel was not taken out!

Hongyue said: "Last time Suzaku destroyed Essinger, you asked us to transfer supplies in advance. The Babel Tower was too big to transfer all the supplies, so we dismantled the core and transported it away. During this time, the core has been in the steel The city is undergoing repairs, and although the weapon system has not yet been repaired, the observation system is already operational."

"Then what are you waiting for? Move here quickly! No, let's go there!" I was about to leave and then said after thinking about it: "By the way. Send a ship to the border to bring those gods back. It seems that those guys are... I'm knocked unconscious and I can't fly back!" Such a good opportunity to win over cannot be missed.

Although we used the teleportation array, we were already delayed for more than ten minutes when we arrived at Steel City to activate the observation equipment of Babel Tower. After the picture appeared, we first zoomed in to the entire earth, and a bright white line was immediately discovered. "found it!"

The Qiankun Gourd has flown out of the atmosphere, but it did not fly straight into space but quickly entered the earth's orbit. However, this orbit is not standard. According to this trajectory, it will soon enter the earth's atmosphere again. The water column ejected from behind the gourd has no atmospheric pressure limit in space. As soon as it came out, it spread out and formed a wide white bright band. That's why we found it so easily.

The elliptical orbit of the Qiankun Gourd is quite unstable, as we expected. After advancing for a while it plunged into the atmosphere. The Heaven and Earth Gourd falls at high speed in the atmosphere. It can withstand the attack of magic missiles and is naturally not afraid of the high temperature caused by friction. This gourd is probably the most powerful magic weapon in the history of Heaven.

The picture follows the gourd as it falls back to the ground, but this is no longer Asia. The Gourd of Heaven and Earth now appears over the Pacific Ocean and is flying towards the United States. At this speed it will enter U.S. airspace in less than ten minutes.

If it were outside the game, the Americans would have definitely shot down this UFO, but there are no radars or airplanes in the sky in the game. Except for spears, everything that can fly here basically relies on wings and magic to fly. Air defense is only limited to the battlefield. It's just coordination, there is no real air strike here.

In a port city on the west coast of the United States, players are busy with their own affairs. A sailor player who just bought a telescope is looking around with his new toy. Suddenly he found something on the sea rushing toward him at high speed.

"What is that?" he asked while adjusting the magnification of the telescope.

The player next to him took out his telescope and looked over. "where?"

"Just due west."

"Well, I saw it. Wow! What is this?"

"It seems like something is coming towards us with sea water."

"No, it must be an enemy attack."

The two people put down their binoculars to warn others, but the gourd was too fast. It dragged a huge column of water and washed ashore less than a minute after the two men put down their telescopes. The water column behind the gourd was extremely powerful. Within five seconds, the gourd passed through the sky above the city, and a huge ruins area appeared in the center of the city. Thousands of tons of seawater were flowing into the sea carrying the corpses of a large number of players and NPCs.

Originally, I planned to use a missile to lure the gourd to Japan. Unexpectedly, the gourd was changed direction by the storm belt and hit the missile. As a result, the gourd flew to the United States after entering high-altitude orbit! The Qiankun Gourd moved along the ground like a cruise missile on American soil, turning any area it flew over into a pond. Although the flow rate of the water sprayed by the gourd is terrible, in fact, because of its high speed, the amount of water received by an area is not too much. But the problem is that the water is too concentrated.

The water the gourd leaves behind in its path is actually about the same amount as a heavy rain. But a heavy rain takes an hour or two, but it pours all this water down in a few seconds. This kind of local flood peak cannot flow along the low-lying river channel, and the soil does not absorb water so quickly, so there are no exceptions. Everywhere it passed was flooded.

Although Americans are more unlucky, they are not too unlucky. Although Calabash entered the United States, the route it flew through was basically uninhabited places, and the only real losses were the two cities it happened to pass through.

After crossing more than half of the United States, the gourd hit the top of a mountain. Then it turned a corner and hit many things one after another. Finally, it turned around and started flying back.

The return route was very different from the original route. This time it went directly towards the densely populated Great Lakes. The first unlucky city was a small city built by players. The city owner was talking to people on top of the city wall when suddenly something flew between them. Then the two people were beaten out in two directions. On the way through the city, Hulu hit a relatively tall building and then turned a little angle due to the effect of the building and flew in through the window of a tall restaurant next to it.

The speed of the gourd was exaggerated. As soon as it entered from here, it passed through the opposite window, and then it turned around and flew out of the city. All the doors and windows on the first floor of the restaurant suddenly opened outwards, and even the doors and windows that did not originally open outwards were rushed open. The floodwaters, together with the guests and service staff inside, were rushed out of the doors and windows, and rolled all over the street. There was still a lot of water coming out of the building, and the street turned into a small river in an instant. Most of the pedestrians on the street were not spared from being washed around one by one.

I couldn't stop laughing when I looked at the images in Steel City, even though this gourd was causing destruction. But that's not my real estate business. So for now I just have to gloat.

The Hulu that flew out of this city kept making small-scale turns on its flight path. After attacking three more cities, the Hulu returned to the Pacific Ocean. It was flying smoothly on the sea, but unfortunately it encountered a tsunami. Strictly speaking, this tsunami was caused by itself. The water spouted by the gourd has changed the global climate. The most impressive area is the ocean, which has now shown some abnormal phenomena.

Affected by the wind during the tsunami, the gourd actually flew into the sky again. This time it was even more outrageous. After leaving the atmosphere, it actually circled the earth several times. I originally thought it would keep turning like this, but somehow it suddenly turned and rushed into the atmosphere again.

This time the gourd entered the atmosphere above Japan, but it was inserted diagonally. When it was about to touch the ground, I saw its destination. This guy is rushing down towards Essinger.

I quickly threw the control crystal to the big pot: "Go back and control the divine arrow. No matter what, don't let it hit Isengard."

"I'll try my best!"

This damn gourd is really the ancestor of trouble. After confusing the Americans, he came back to try to trouble me. But Essinger is not an ordinary city. We have been working hard since the last time it was destroyed by Suzaku. The current Essinger is a It's a big bunker, and you need to have enough strength to get close to it.

In the picture, the divine arrow launchers at the top of Essinger are all aimed at the Gourd of Heaven and Earth. This guy, Big Pot Rice, simply doesn't know how to save things and actually shoots eight magic missiles at once. After a series of explosions, Essinger was baptized by the sea water again. The gourd turned again, not flying towards Japan, but towards the mainland of China. Is this gourd a spy planted by the Japanese? They have made us and the Americans so miserable but they still refuse to go to Japan!

After entering the land, the Qiankun Gourd began to fly along the Yangtze River. Through observation, I found that the flight trajectory of this thing was not entirely caused by airflow. If the aerodynamic shape is uneven, it should at least maintain a fixed deflection angle. If it hits an obstacle, the steering should at least follow the law of reflection. However, when this thing turned in the air, it turned randomly and randomly. Sometimes it would even suddenly turn more than 30 degrees without encountering any obstacles.

Hongyue watched it next to me for a long time and felt that there was something wrong with this thing. It should not be spinning around like this!
