Chapter 248 The war... breaks out!
In the midst of the embarrassment, the immortal giant turtle opened its bloody mouth and roared: "Listen carefully, even Lord Turtle has fallen into their trap!"
"Once you let them in, you will all die."
The crowd was actually frightened. No one dared to be careless and stared at the surveillance camera carefully.
Immediately afterwards, Mr. Turtle felt very embarrassed and quietly comforted Conch: "Sister, I actually lied to them... How could I want to eat you? A cabbage as fresh and tender as you should be grown on the ground for everyone to enjoy.
"
Conch's face was slightly red, and she imitated the Immortal Giant Turtle's words angrily, "Give me hers and add another leg."
Lu Yuan also ran over and praised: "Master Gui, leave some meat for me. I'm just hungry."
Conch rolled her eyes at him, a little angry.
The immortal giant tortoise felt guilty as they said it, so he crawled away in a majestic manner.
"I'm going to eat all these monsters!"
…
The sun was setting, and it was going to be dark soon. The investigation report of the King Insect came from the walkie-talkie.
"The population in the city is constantly gathering, heading towards the City in the Sky."
"Preliminary estimate is more than 100,000!"
"It is expected that the general attack will be launched after dark."
It's not far from dark...
Lu Yuan is checking the 1,450 eggs.
These eggs were about to hatch and were in a dormant state. At this moment, after being taken out of the flower buds, they started to squirm again "dong dong" and "dong dong".
Lu Yuan thought they were not hatching fast enough, so he moved the Tree of Life to the eggs, using the vines to continuously transport life energy.
The aura emitted by these insect eggs becomes more and more ferocious.
The sounds from the headphones were transmitted to Lu Yuan's ears one by one.
"A total of three shifts have been arranged to monitor all aspects."
"The sewers are laid out in an orderly manner, and some side manhole covers are forcibly closed by concrete, leaving only a few main passages..."
"The logistics system is quite normal, and the food reserves are sufficient. We can last for a long time in the shelter."
"Several talented workers are urgently making helmets and resin smoke bombs...but we can't expect too much in a temporary situation."
This kind of defensive helmet is forged from black iron and coated with a layer of sealing resin. Without special glyphs, the shielding effect can only be said to be average...
But something is better than nothing.
Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and tried to keep himself calm.
This can be regarded as the first major crisis of human civilization in the 18th century. There will obviously be many mistakes in a large-scale corps war.
They do not lack communication capabilities, but the walkie-talkies they obtained from Rize Civilization and the various communication channels seem a bit confusing.
Some orders had to be sent to officers by Lu Yuan, and some orders had to be sent directly to lower-level soldiers. Some details would be difficult to improve in a short period of time.
The number of weapons is not enough. Whether they are hot weapons, cold weapons, or mental protection devices, the number is still not enough.
"This is the phobia of insufficient firepower. If there were ten thousand nuclear bombs, I would be so scared here." Lu Yuan sighed inwardly.
He turned a fruit of life into energy, his eyes glowed red, and he used the ability to "control".
The few fruits of life accumulated by the Tree of Life over the years were completely consumed in this way.
Fortunately, after spending a lot of money, we finally managed to control these 1,450 bugs.
These insect eggs created a feeling of connectedness with him.
It is precisely because of their existence that Lu Yuan has the capital to fight.
"My order! Those who are almost hatched can come out!"
"Human civilization needs more warriors!"
Lu Yuan's eyes glowed red and he gave the order.
Each insect egg was like a silkworm chrysalis, moving more violently, and the energy output of the Tree of Life suddenly increased again.
Lu Yuan was very lucky that he had 2,000 units of life energy left, otherwise it would be really difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.
These bugs swallowed up about 400 units of vitality before slowly stopping. Each one of them showed symptoms of stiffness, which was a sign that they were about to hatch.
"I have a big question."
Lao Mao, who was directing the construction in the sewer, suddenly thought of something and said in the earphone, "If every 'painted skin' has the ability to mentally attack, the number would be too many and it would not be consistent with common sense."
"It's impossible for everyone to have the ability of [Spiritual Words], right?"
"Otherwise, wouldn't [Spiritual Words] become a piece of junk on the street? If we seal a few [Spiritual Words], we can use them ourselves."
When it said this, Lu Yuan hesitated a little.
Only "form skills" and "qi skills" can be biologically inherited, and both the Meda Civilization and the Greenland Civilization believe so.
For example, in the insect wave disaster, almost every insect has some skills, which are the result of inheritance and mutation.
Only divine skills cannot be inherited, which is the main reason why the "King Insect" is so precious.
But each of these human-skinned monsters actually has divine skills, which is very strange.
"Has that guy who was caught woken up?" Lu Yuan made up his mind and immediately communicated with several "sealing" ability users through earphones.
He planned to forcibly peel the monster's [Spiritual Word] from its soul.
Obviously, this matter cannot be left to Conch. Even if her sealing skills are more advanced, it is best not to let her do anything that is too cruel.
"Captain Lu, we are monitoring you all the time! You haven't woken up yet!"
A few minutes later, an exclamation came from the earphones: "Captain Lu, that human skin may not have a soul!"
"Is there a soul body that escaped from the bud?"
"No, it's impossible! We've been watching from outside." People with "sealing" abilities can also see souls, not to mention that this human-skin monster is imprisoned in the virtual space, so it is impossible for it to escape.
The pressure suddenly surged up.
Lu Yuan tapped his forehead with his finger: "In other words, there is only one monster with true divine skills, and these human skins are actually just clones?"
"The clone we captured alive is of little significance."
"What's even more frightening is that some information about our city has been exposed. The other party already knows about our cannons and machine guns?"
These words really made everyone despair.
Especially the old man Sha Sanli, who suddenly lost all strength and sat down on the ground. Cold sweat kept pouring out and soaked his clothes: "It's all my fault. I attracted them here."
Others also seemed nervous. What level of monster is this?
The clones alone are so powerful, do they still have a chance to survive?
Lu Yuan reassured: "Don't worry, the opponent has a large number of people, and we also have new combat power here."
"Think about it carefully, what information was revealed along the way? As long as the key information is not disclosed, it's not a big problem."
"Actually... it's nothing. They asked me a question, and I just answered a question. I roughly answered how many people there are, what the combat strength is, etc."
"The empire is so powerful, but our high-level combat power is really no match for the empire..."
Sha Sanli was a little embarrassed and wanted to flatter him: "Captain Lu, I'm not saying that your combat effectiveness is low, I mean that the combined combat effectiveness of all of us is not high..."
"And when we first met, weren't you still looking for a way to break through the extraordinary fire? You must not be an innate grand master yet..."
Lu Yuan waved his hand: "No, you did a good job."
"In other words, your words caused the opponent to have a strategic misjudgment, so they rushed over in a hurry and wanted to eat us."
"But they actually don't have much understanding of technological civilization, and they don't actually know anything about surveillance and the like."
On the contrary, the immortal giant turtle revealed more information. The treasure with 34 points of divine attributes is more nourishing than the ten thousand-year-old ginseng; the dying poppy tree is simply a ready-made elixir of immortality!
Who can resist this temptation?
"It seems that these 1,400 insect eggs have not been disclosed. Absolutely not!" Sha Sanli kept waving his hands, he swore to God, and the other accompanying soldiers also shook their heads.
Lu Yuan nodded: "It seems that we can use 1,500 Zerg warriors to give the opponent a hard blow..."
"But the 1,500 Zerg warriors can only be exposed once. If the opponent's main force is not severely damaged, the trouble will be huge."
…
At this moment, the voice of the power unit and the desert came from the earphones: "Army, the power grid has been maintained, and the Sky City can take off!"
"Want to take off?"
Lu Yuan gritted his teeth, quite undecided.
Without the help of wind, the city flies very slowly, and the poppy trees now need to rest and recuperate. If they are directly lifted into the air, the rest in front of them will be in vain.
This is a very difficult choice.
"Where's the weather forecaster? What's the wind direction these days?"
Sha Mo immediately replied: "There may be southerly winds at eight o'clock tonight, and the wind force will be small, around level 3. The wind force will reach level 4 tomorrow morning, but that's all."
"He doesn't think there will be a typhoon in the next month."
"There may be winds of level 5-6, but the duration will be quite limited."
If you want wind power to drive the Sky City, you need at least level 5 winds. This condition is really immature now.
Just when Lu Yuan was about to use Zerg warriors to resist the first wave of attacks, Sha Mo suddenly said in the headset: "Army Army, I think it is better to take off, even if the price is higher, oh, take off for a short period of time
Better."
"Why?"
"Because the opponent has intelligence, it is eyeing us and wants to get everything in the Sky City. It should not want to miss this sumptuous meal."
"In this case, if it sees our city taking off, it may become anxious and rush out at all costs."
"It doesn't know that our city flies very slowly and needs to overdraw the vitality of the poppy trees. It only knows that we are going to escape, right?"
"Based on the current situation, a one-time decisive battle may be more reliable than a long-term war of attrition."
Lu Yuan thought for a moment and nodded immediately.
This is taking advantage of the information gap to deceive the other party.
In a one-time decisive battle, you can rely on the newly hatched Zerg warriors to ambush a ruthless one.
If the city doesn't take off, and the other side sends small teams from time to time to come over and harass them, they simply can't afford it.
The elderly and children cannot hide in the shelter for a long time. If you guard against thieves for a thousand days, they will gradually become lax.
"Your suggestion is very good!"
"Then, all crews are ready to start the city emergency liftoff procedure!"
"Comrades, the purpose of launching into the sky this time is to deceive the other party into launching an attack. So it doesn't have to be very high, but the momentum must be strong. Do you understand?"
"Understood."
The glyphs distributed in various parts of the city flickered again, blooming with bright light.
Lu Yuan injected all the energy in the "Rubik's Cube Energy Converter" into the poppy tree.
He found that the energy growth rate actually increased, and the annual output actually soared to more than 80 units?!
"It seemed like there were only 38 before... Is this because a group of people died?" Lu Yuan sighed in his heart.
At the same time, he distributed the 1,000 life energy stored in the Tree of Life to the Poppy Tree.
"There are only 600 left now, so I use them up really fast."
The poppy tree is indeed a greedy guy. After gaining energy, the leaves that were originally withered and yellow suddenly became moist.
How much money you give it, how much effort it will produce.
"This is all we can do, and I should be able to hold on for a while."
"Wow!" The city slowly rose from the lake, displacing a large amount of lake water.
The city's rise is not very fast, and it can be seen that the pilot Conch's control proficiency is quite good.
"Yes, yes, that's it, slow down and give the other party some time to react." Lu Yuan stood at the top of the poppy tree and looked at the entire city.
The "rumbling" propellers were like roaring lightning, startling the birds throughout the forest.
…
The mammoth scene was naturally discovered by some "creatures" snooping around the lake.
Among them, there is a very small number of people who are survivors of the Mandala Empire - these people, without exception, are all powerful people.
At this moment, they were attracted by the huge sound and rushed towards the lake in unison.
"Is that city leaving?"
"What are so many monsters gathering at the lake for?"
"Let's go over and have a look!" These two young men are called the Ma family brothers. Their fighting ability is not very high, but they possess divine skills.
One is the fiery eye, the other is the identification ability.
They found that the disaster was unstoppable, so they could only hide in the forest and live in seclusion.
"This may be our last chance."
…
For the survivors of the Mandala Empire, force is not the most important thing.
Even a great innate master must die once he is bewitched by the painted skin.
Those who can survive have excellent life-saving abilities.
They discovered the horrific facts about "painted skin" and were in a state of despair and suffering.
Now that the painted army is launching a general attack, they have naturally discovered the anomaly, as if they have grasped the last life-saving straw.
In a certain cellar, several old people stuck their heads out.
"These monsters seem to be going to war with something."
"I'm going to investigate."
…
Chapter completed!
