Chapter 1005: Ruin Cards

Damned can live like people in the mortal world, but their freedom of movement is strictly controlled.They are unable to receive offerings of paper money and paper goods burned by living relatives fo..........

Past human civilizations' weapons development was just boiling water and throwing stones at each other.

The design concept of the Sim Shui Guan (literally "Simal River Pass") is a typical example.

To counter the Jerusalem Fortress, she underwent two full-scale outfit upgrades.

As a terrestrial era, Lu Cheng's most powerful stronghold under his command is the Guanai-level.

She did not rely on turtle spirits and spirit orbs as divine protection, instead opting for a formidable defense with thirty-two Jiao cannons (standard ammunition: Tsunami-2) on four sides, twelve Scorpion Crossbows (standard ammunition: Bixin Scorpio projectiles), and a Water Curtain Sword Array. Her firepower was absolutely top-tier for her time.

Once, a single pass was defended by 10,000 naval ships and an army of soldiers to support the liberation war of an entire continent. Ultimately, victory was achieved.

In the age of stars, it's obviously not enough.

If we were to measure warships based on their civilization level, Yunxiao-class would be a Tier 1 Battleship, while the 7☆ "Sishui Guan" is only a 0.7-tier Escort Ship, dragging down the fleet when included.

In other words.

The weaponry of the Ground Age is clearly unable to meet the diverse needs of warfare in the stars. It has reached the point where it should be retired.

However, Lu Cheng plans to continue upgrading and leveling up.

It's just that the plan is after "Dali Tian Shen" and "Bai Yu Jing".

After the mighty god returned to his position, he planned to immediately activate the power and carry out the White Jade Palace plan. Then, he would plant hundreds of years' worth of fields on a large scale, waiting until the military funds accumulated.

... upgrade the [**Mount Sizhui Pass**], prepare escort ships for the Immortal Boat, build a fleet nearly at the level of a first-class one, and defend Baiyu City.

After the upgrade plan was in place, Lu Cheng stopped supplying water to Sisui Pass and began clearing out its inventory. According to the trade agreement, a large number of outdated spell cards "Tidal Wave-2" were sold to Shayu.

The

Haelstorm missile fired from the Jiapao cannon only deals damage within its magical range and has no penetration ability.

Foreign trade is not dangerous either.

But the armor-piercing vocabulary was learned by Lu Cheng from the tail of the pipa and crafted into a specialized vocabulary after thousands of years of wind tunnel testing.

(Pierce: Under normal physical laws, damage inflicted always pierces 1☆ defense.)

Although it doesn't have the Pipa Cave Master's ability to ignore rule defenses, it's still a powerful stat.

Currently, only the expensive Scorpion bomb has this entry.

Although the scorpion bomb is old.

But after much deliberation, Lu Cheng did not include it in the trade list.

Then the remaining large inventory can be consumed in this war.

In other words, this might be the last battle for the old Fenshui Pass. Afterward, this illustrious Guanai-class fortress will retire to Qingqiu and prepare for a makeover.

The Sand Worm's defense is a standard 7☆, not a special defensive unit. Its general defense level corresponds to the card level star rating.

The 7☆Scorpion-style fortress cannon at [Simshui Pass] easily tears through the 7☆ defense.

Whether they were constructs or bioforms, under Fei Lian's buff, the first round of scorpion cannons blasted the approaching sandworms right in the head!

The guide from Damascus had never seen such terrifyingly powerful cannons!

This thing can tear the armor of the Wings of God to shreds........

A hundred-meter-long black dragon... they thought this thing was firing!

I was momentarily paralyzed by the terrifying aura.

These sandworms gave the Nehekharan Armored Division a hard time, but here under the Zephyrite winds, they were slain one by one before even getting close.

"Reporting to the General, one round of artillery bombardment is complete!"

"Alright, you're free to go!"

.......

.......

Lu Cheng watched as Shan Shi's mechanisms surged out of the pass and reached their artillery positions.

There was only a small skirmish, and only three sandworms were still able to move. They were all killed by Shan Shi's Qiongqi mechanism, leaving one alive which was sent back inside the pass.

These sand worms are much weaker than I imagined.

The Si Shui Pass lacks a research institution, so Lu Cheng had to come personally. This was the reason for his descent. Meanwhile, Meng Tian had already begun sending people along the tunnels created by the sandworms, deep into the earth.

Day one, no messages.

Lu Cheng only knew that these might be mass-produced cards from some kind of mechanical civilization....

The workmanship is rough (in Lu Cheng's view).

And for something so ancient, to still be functional is quite remarkable.

Is it a mechanical race

Could it be that we have encountered civilization

It shouldn't be like this....

The Supreme Pact possesses the power to shift stars and change destinies, adhering to three-tiered principles but capable of error

According to "people and strategies", Lu Cheng began to think about the external communication process.

If it were a mechanical civilization, how should we contact it

First, the Sand Worms launched an attack on the Sand Dune Exploration Team, nearly wiping out a mechanized division of the Alliance.

After buying a planet, I only deployed checkpoints. I didn't damage the environment or mine resources, yet I was attacked without provocation. Shooting down the attacking sandworms can be considered self-defense, right

Actually, races like the Whale Clan don't have morality at all. Lu Cheng believes that many cosmic races are like this....

But for the human race to maintain morale, it still needs a justifiable cause.

Just the next day, a message was sent back from ahead.

During your exploration, your card deck discovers an Ancient Battlefield Ruins card. While protected, you may also encounter similar reward cards. These ruins come from the last civilization war and usually pose a certain level of danger, but venturing in is not necessarily catastrophic. You can destroy these cards to collect resources or gather them to strengthen your civilization deck.

Having faced one formidable opponent after another during the Continental phase, and with countless battles against our own kind leaving us depleted,

In the era of stars, Lu Cheng felt... luck was on his side!

The whale clan is absolutely facing a genocide, but after being reborn, it becomes beneficial.

Although gaseous species are powerful, after combining with the whale clan 1 1, the whale clan mainly bears the pressure...

And himself, unexpectedly unscathed, safely weathered two military crises and entered a period of safety.

I didn't expect to stumble upon another piece of the ruins!rs, he ultimately did not abolish all other schools of thought and exclusively favor Confucianism. This doesn't mean Confucianism disappeared, but like the era of a hundred schools of thought, each s...
