Chapter 1003: The Last Pass - Sishui

Golden Core card capacity is full!"Water Spirit (19) has been added to your deck."There are too many.Lu Cheng immediately became busy, enduring the tribulation while extracting [Yin Qi], and frantical..."Mary, you've worked so hard."

“Where are Ah Qing, Lady Yao, and Pipa Girl” asked the Turtle Spirit Mother. “I haven't seen them in many years, and I miss them very much.”

Although Gui Ling and Pipa had once fought fiercely on the New Continent, knowing how formidable this demon was, they also admired her for being a true person of character. Their relationship, as a result, became quite good.

Lu Cheng glanced at Aqing.

Qing lowered her head and smiled quietly.

"Ah........ Uh........"

The Turtle Spirit Mother smirked, understanding instantly.

What else could it be Ah Qing is cheap, after all!

The subject immediately changed.

"The junior brother suspects that there is an undiscovered energy source on this planet that sustains these creatures."

"Yes, I bought this from the Dune People. They are highly ranked and quite dangerous overall, which is why I sent you all in." Lu Cheng said seriously.

"Oh, right, there's no water spirit here, and the defenses at the Sishui Pass have been weakened... Our landing must have alerted the predators. How long until they attack"

Your heavy siege card [Sishui Pass] status is (Lack of water).

Lu Cheng blinked his eyes.

Immediately.

........

Meanwhile, outside the Si Shui Pass.

The tattered banner of the Meneil family's Nykhara Armored Legion still fluttered in the ground.

The honor guard, awarded for their valiant service in the grand celestial battles, were subsequently dispatched here on an exploratory mission.

They once believed that wearing "Terracotta Army" armor represented the highest combat capability humans could achieve.

After all, this reliable armor once withstood the attack of the gaseous species.

But on a planet ravaged by sandworms, the Sandworm Starfighters suffered a catastrophic defeat.

A squad of guard soldiers was nearly wiped out by a sandworm.

This also solidified the Meniere family's desire to sell this dangerous planet.

After the great retreat, a large number of Zi Chong were not found and remained on the planet.

The giant apes at the Sisiguan are cleaning up.

Their articulated arms can easily clean the floor.

Warning, warning, the six-eared demon general is transmitting... a large-scale attack is about to reach the surface. Please have the reserve forces return immediately to the pass.

The sound alert traveled for several kilometers.

"All units, the sandworms are coming out!" The giant apes swiftly dashed into the inner chamber.

They can easily traverse terrain, but seem more sensitive to their surroundings.

The nearby sandworms are gathering.

This large native apex predator caught the scent of prey and began converging on the sandstorm.

A sand worm can easily defeat a desert legion equipped with Qin dynasty powered mechanisms.

It truly lives up to its 7-star reputation.

Hearing the warning siren and feeling the ground tremble, the Arab guide standing at the pass turned pale with fright.

They were only hired to be planet guides, not suicide bombers.

Throw the war fortress directly into the landing zone... and then get surrounded.

This is too confident.

Humans have a defect, their imagination is always limited to what they have seen in their lifetime.

They didn't know the details of the Bei Ming army. In fact, besides the high-ranking officials, very few people knew about them.

Well, actually, even the higher-ups don't know.

These guides were star scouts from the exploration team back then. When they were hired, they only said that a lord from the desert had bought land from the government and sent private soldiers to explore it...

Lord's private soldiers...

Even an outsider could see that the war fortress beneath their feet was formidable, but the guides didn't believe any creatures on the surface could be bold enough to provoke all the sandworms in the vicinity and eliminate...

After all, the Sand Dune Guard has received support from advanced civilizations in recent years, and their actual star rating is probably higher than a Gold Four-star.

Their cautionary tale is still down there at the pass!

"My lord, perhaps we should board the ship and evacuate!"

The Arab guide and the officer clad in strange, powered armor asked.

They want to advise this ignorant general.

Meng Tian's stomach was still churning.

Even in the time of Emperor Qin, he received an imperial decree and was crafted by Master Gongsun into a Terracotta Warrior, buried beneath the Great Wall to fight against the Moon God.

This physical body was later modified by the Behai Commander, and logically speaking, it should be immune to poisons...

What the heck is this whale clan specialty!

That taste... the lack of satiation is simply incredible!

"No retreat." Lao Meng received the news from the Six-Ears department. The combat power of these insects was far inferior to the large holy beasts raised by the Jerusalem Guard... just repel them.

The main purpose of this trip is to explore the secrets of sandworm's power level.

To implement the commander's energy layout, planting areas are designated to cultivate timber for constructing powerful deities.

……

All the monkeys have returned to the pass, and the Tortoise Formation immediately closed.

Then, the mountains shook.

Actually, calling them sandworms isn't quite right...

When they emerged from the ground, Lu Cheng, who was acutely perceptive in the Mother Turtle's Spirit Room, noticed...

Semi-living structure!

A massive and grotesque body contorted, rusted sections exposing pipes…

The massive maw resembled the structure of a shield machine's front end...making it convenient for them to dig tunnels.

The first sandworm hit the outer carapace of the Sishui Pass tortoise.

You received 7 stars of physical damage, your barrier defense is at rank 10.

Mother, spread your left wing platform…

"Yes!"

……

Sishui Pass

After the decisive battle, only one ship of the Shan Hai Escort fleet remains. Its last refit occurred in the Han Dynasty gacha.

In terms of power, protection, and firepower, it has fallen far behind the times.

But that doesn't mean she's not strong.

Her sister ships, Yumen and Yanmen, were sunk one after another. It makes sense that she's still alive.

She didn't have a powerful main weapon like a battleship that could strike with one shot.

But she had far more pipes than the first-generation battleship immortal ship.

A total of sixteen 300m Jiapao, three fixed-position Scorpion Crossbows (Scorpion main guns), and the Fei Lian sniper camp of the Shan Hai Division.

Very suitable for close-range crushing of large numbers of targets.

After Lu Cheng's order, she immediately bared her ferocious fangs.

On the left side of the pass, six water-powered cannons were out of commission due to a lack of water, though the Fei Lian mechanism had already taken flight, providing the troops with vision and wind currents.

When Arabs saw the feilun, everyone was dumbfounded.

During the civil war, they had seen the [Flying Vulture], a monstrous creature that emerged from the Sishui Pass air base. Its aura was a hundred times stronger than the Flying Vulture!

The unique and eerie cries of the Fei Lian's mechanisms echoed across the area.

Then... came the wind! infantry.The two wings held long spears, the middle ranks wielded swords and shields, while the vanguard brandished terrifying double-headed axes.After a crushing defeat at Tiansheng, the Chi's force...
