Chapter 1022: Crust and Mantle

pot】. It was given to her by Lu Cheng. She preferred hot pot over grilling, and Lu Cheng wanted to see what the 【dragon soup base】 hot pot tasted like.She is diligently adding firewood to the hot pot...........

The material used to cast the South Heavenly Gate remains a mystery. However, burying it hundreds of kilometers deep within the mantle was a well-thought-out plan.

The fleet fired not a single shot, but managed to transmit the key information back to the ground base.

Palace analysis, the rule level is almost 3:7, both sides can only fight in a roughly understood form.

The good news is, a rough understanding will do.

At least it won't suddenly end up with one side having a completely incomprehensible, indescribable, and alien worldview, and then being destroyed.

As for the parts we can't understand, we humans have a collective term for them: "monsters."

However, the spirits currently occupy seven out of ten rules, they may know more about humans or similar creatures.

The monster's ranged attacks are extremely powerful against living creatures, and they can have a lasting impact on human minds. This means that almost 100,000 soldiers from the Sand Domain Army and the Whale Clan might be forced to withdraw from battle.

It should have been bad news, but the Beiming Grand Camp was filled with cheers and joy.

Because the good news is, enemy ranged attacks are ineffective against constructs, and seemingly resilient units also have a natural damage reduction.

The information the other party doesn't happen to have is humanity's powerful heavy mechs and industrial capacity.......

This resulted in the entire Beiming Nantianmen Army having a natural high degree of immunity to enemy long-range firepower.

This news is true and it made the generals happy.

The current difficulty is that we may need to disperse all low-star units and the whale clan's support before engaging the enemy.

Under the combined industrial capacity of Asgard and the Dragon Palace, constructing massive underground facilities was no easy feat.

Given the current energy shortage, there are only 10 standard Crimson Orb energies available on hand. The Beiming Grand Camp decided to allocate one portion to the [Nantian Gate] first.

Used to input dried enemy fragments or spirit fragments for analysis, constructing a civilization fortress tailored against specific threats: Tai Bai.

There are 9 remaining. Huo Qubing took one and built a vertical electromagnetic launch well near the equator underground, for the take-off and landing of 20 first-generation Longqi fighters and one young Bai Long.

Although high-intensity aerial support within the atmosphere cannot be guaranteed, the 3,000 feather soldiers empowered by the essence of the Crimson Jewel Fairy can deploy 100 sorties per month using this power for thirty years.

The entire launch shaft is buried in the mantle, with only one opening that allows flight units to reach any location on the planet quickly.

As for provisions, because the Imperial Guards had no such thing as morale and could directly chew on dried pomegranate root grass, Huo Qubing did not need to equip them with logistics.

The Six-Eared General took one, along with thirty [Ear-Listening], covering thirty-one points from the South Pole to the North Pole. This was the only Southern Heaven Gate Formation Eye of the Great Demons, forming a reconnaissance network and a magic casting grid.

The remaining seven portions of the Crimson Pearl Energy were invested into two cultivation sects, Cang Hai Island and Su Wen Pavilion.

The Cang Hai Formation is located in the aquifer and, under the blessing of the Jiang Zhu fairy spirits, all the Dharma cultivators of the Bei Ming army are stationed here.

One can cast spells globally, including those of the Five Elements Basic Techniques and Reverse Five Elements Techniques, reaching up to the level of Nascent Soul (Gold 9th Star - Gold 10th Star).

The Suwen Pavilion is located near the Nan Tian Men and is used to resist spiritual pollution, provide a biological ecosystem, and release restorative spells.

They will also be responsible for purifying the bodies of enemy troops brought over, reducing their contamination level and sending them to Nantian Gate for analysis.

Three energy units remain. Left and Right Strategists have Bai Qi and Meng Tian each command a separate camp (following the Tang army system of the Tang Dynasty pool), with a total of 8000 heavy mountain-sea mechanical troops as the main battle force, defending Nantian Gate.

The Dragon Palace's first branch, the Heavenly Crafts Workshop, was established near the South Heaven Gate. It was responsible for repairing and upgrading equipment.

The entire front-line underground fortifications included research, industry, medicine, air raids, magic deployment, reconnaissance, and left and right camps.

Apart from production, almost everything else is perfectly divided.

Energy is indeed extremely tight.

The next batch of fairy grass will take hundreds of years to grow... In a high-intensity battle, it would take 1-3 years for the energy lines to be completely depleted (1 standard unit of red one-star energy can only supply so much firepower for a few rounds).

But that's not how it's calculated.

It depends on whether the enemy can maintain a high-intensity airborne assault and threaten the South Gate.

........

The barrage of propaganda continued for days.

All low-ranked troops have boarded the Momentary and evacuated in advance. Currently, the Baiyujing Tianhe Water Corps should be hiding in the asteroid belt.

While the mecha mitigated half of the mental trauma for the Shan Hai Masters, it wasn't without its own impact on the other side.

At least the warriors reacted, able to hear the incessant muttering day and night, and some soldiers developed mild hallucinations.

But........so what

Back then, while the temple priests chanted scriptures, Solomon's assault had come. This reduction of over 80% in mental damage didn't affect the warriors who manipulated the mechs with their divine thoughts at all.

Then, monsters began to be deployed in the pitch-black starry sky.

The monster generals dropped from the sky onto the ground, and none of them knew each other. Nor did anyone care.

However, the enemy was quite organized.

The monsters immediately established a black mist-like area on the ground, which was called the "Dark Zone" by the Bei Ming Army.

And its tentacles, which never stop moving beneath the surface of the earth, began to stir.

It looks like it supports or barracks buildings

No matter what, the enemy's leadership obviously made full preparations for an airborne operation. They want to completely occupy the surface, and the first batch of Shanhai legion machine gun units have already engaged the enemy.

.......

.......

The Qiongqi was connected to the Left General's orders, forbidding direct melee combat........

Ahead was a large landing site, with countless indistinct alien creatures being rained down onto the surface.

The captain acted decisively, first calling upon his auxiliary magical skills for a strike.

This unit is responsible for observing and recording, and bringing the message back to the Left Commander's main camp in the Mantle.

The Qiongqi's innate Divine Mind Lattice connected with the nearby Ti-Hearing, silently counted for three seconds, and then a massive spell roared down.

Three massive bolts of lightning ripped through the sky, crashing heavily onto the drop zone.

Surface dust is flying.

Immediately afterward, the air became scorching hot.

All around, the blood on the ground steamed from the heat of the fire spirit magic, creating a foul smelling haze.....

The monster horde reacted instantly.

Spiritual species understand humans seven out of ten. They lack physical bodies; they conquer weaker humans without physical means. However, to physically subjugate those with strong spirits who resist stubbornly, they require physical vessels.

They specifically conducted inhumane experiments, using human fear and fantasy as a basis. Combining the collections of the Liaodong Museum with biomass and energy, they created a batch of highly efficient grotesque creatures designed specifically for slaughtering humans.

The first generation of grotesques, each monster controlled by a spiritkind. These highly efficient killing machines with biological specialization could sweep across the human flesh and blood.

A million-monster shell, each with a hundred eyes, was initially deployed in an eight-thousand strong vanguard force. They were used to establish the "Shell Factory," "Taleground," and "Concealed Dark Zones" and ultimately conquer the entire planet.t Lu Cheng is a powerful warrior, his strength is definitely there, not surpassing the limit but approaching it. However, in Dongyue's province, the situation has worsened significantly. The economy h...
