  Chapter 920 World War

  The power of the planetary shield can cover the entire empire—this sentence seems a bit ambiguous.

  After all, the imperial capital serves as a planetary shield, and its power should theoretically be able to cover the entire planet.

   For a mere empire, do we need to build so many floating cities, at least two hundred or more, to spread out as relay points to cover the entire territory?

  Actually, it doesn't mean the same thing at all.

   As a planetary shield generator, the function of the Imperial Capital is to use the etheric force field to transform the magnetic field and atmosphere of the planet, creating a special spiritual energy field that can surround the world.

   This field can block most of the harmful cosmic radiation, and can also block energy attacks that exceed the limit. Some comet meteorites, or physical ammunition attacks such as orbital bombing, will also be burned by this layer of field.

This kind of power has run through the entire Terra, even in the era of the Lost Era, after the shelter survivors of that era defeated the Ladder Life Tree, they used the opponent's power to improve the planetary shield so that it could transform the atmosphere of the planet Terra , so that the air biosphere appears, and also allows the climate and surface ecology to recover at a high speed.

   This is the so-called 'planetary ecological shield'.

   But obviously, the shield that the soil defenders want is not such a big and general shield, but a shield to protect the ecological circle.

   What he wants is a literal 'planetary shield'.

   Directly use some kind of powerful spiritual energy field to create a force field, a shield that blocks attacks from other sublimators.

  This kind of shield is obviously a bit difficult.

Even with the contribution of the imperial capital, without counting the driving blessing of the fifth energy level powerhouse, all the sublimators in the entire imperial capital will work together to assist, and the force field shield will cover more than half of the Quinol Plain at most-this is also the case of the "old The protection range of the Imperial Capital Sanctuary'.

   is also the limit of the imperial capital.

However, if there are hundreds of floating cities that use the same shield technology and use the core of the natural spiritual energy field in their respective territories as the hub and the relay point of the giant shield network, then, with a certain extremely complicated algorithm and resonance , you can go beyond the limit and build a super giant shield network with the imperial capital as the core.

Until then…

"Even if the major forces in all of Terra smashed nuclear bombs at each other and threw weapons of destruction at each other, the losses suffered by the empire would definitely be the lowest—unless all the forces of all of Terra worked together to fight against the shield network built by the entire empire and Break it, or the empire will definitely survive to the end of the war of destruction!"

This is Ian's judgment. A pure silver light flashed in his eyes, and his almost endless computing power made him quickly realize from the many modules and functional components of the Floating Void City that the empire was hidden behind this behemoth, and it was even bigger. plan of.

Even, relying on the keenness of the prophet (meaning that he has read too much about the way and has a lot of experience in destroying the world), Ian quickly thought of a possibility: "Pure White Tongtian Tower, shouldn't it refer to this? It runs through the entire empire, The sky-reaching defense network gathered from all the floating cities."

   "Since this is the case, then the dark key related to the Beast of Thousand Stars...the 'dead hand system' that can destroy the entire Terra may be a plan related to the White Tower."

  Ian deduced himself, and soon found a possibility.

   It is possible that he was also taken aback.

   "The Earth Keeper, isn't he planning to release the beast of a thousand stars *Silver Peak swearing* after the entire empire's shield network is built?!"

I couldn't help bursting out swear words in my heart, even Ian was a little stunned: "Axel is so decisive? By the way, the capital of knowledge's research on the thousand-star beast...they can even make the offspring of the thousand-star beast and Symbiosis between people... If the people of the empire really released the Thousand Star Beast to start washing the land, then there is no doubt that the capital of knowledge has the technology of the Thousand Star Beast, the technology of floating cloudscape, and the technology of the shield of the imperial capital that was recently exchanged. It can also survive the scrubbing of the dead hand system!"

   "The floating city, in addition to serving as the core of the natural psionic field to mobilize the shield network system, can also be used as a shelter—at least, the empire can save the most civilians!"

   "The more you think about it, the more possible it is!"

  If it was another world, such as the earth, Ian probably would not have thought of this possibility.

After all, even at the most dangerous moment, all countries on the earth have exercised restraint. Even if nuclear bombs were used in the Federal Unification War, the nuclear radiation environment and climate at that time were not irreversible, so people dared to use this destructive arms.

  However, this is true that they will destroy each other, and the nations of Terra will be wiped out even after hitting Terra!

Ian has some doubts. The "King of Terra" of Inaiga II was probably based on this idea... He is the emperor of the empire, so if he washes away all the forces except the empire, then he will not He is the king of Terra!

   No wonder the Huaiguang Church who supported him at that time all looked constipated, that was indeed a bit extreme.

   Of course, these are all guesses.

Ian felt that he might have considered the belly of ordinary people with the heart of a prophet. Most people should not have thought of such a devastating ending for a moment. Maybe the earth defenders just want to rely on the construction of the floating city and the network Popularization, what about a simple centralization?

   "But you must not underestimate them!"

  In any case, now, Ian's heart has been lifted—he is ten thousand vigilant about the floating city and the corresponding plan.

   After all, apart from the floating city in the material world, the virtual world of the entire empire is changing. Who knows if the landkeepers have any bigger plans?

   It's just that, no matter what Ian's guess is, the Earth Keeper's plan and the floating city will start to act.

   "For the next details, there will be envoys from the imperial capital going to your territories to discuss in detail. Relevant subsidies and engineering support will also be finalized at that time."

The person in charge of the Floating Void City bowed to all the great nobles, and his tone was sincere: "You are the pillars of the empire and the absolute masters of your respective territories... The Floating Void City in your territory is fully built and managed by you, The imperial capital only needs the shield system of the floating city to be connected to the next shield network to protect the entire empire at critical moments."

   "Of course, the terminal information network that has become popular recently must also be built. That's all the requirements of the imperial capital are for you."

   Something is wrong.

  The emperor gave too much, but demanded very little, this is not right.

   Ian is not the only one who can see that the big nobles present are all ascendants and old foxes. How could they not see the weirdness behind this incident?

The imperial capital handed over the technology of the floating city with a level of confidentiality and strategic level to the lords of various places. It neither asked for the transfer of rights, nor for the supervision of the floating city. The words, with the abilities of the nobles, can be easily found out.

  The Imperial Capital seems to only want them, the great nobles, to join the shield network, and they don't care about anything else, whether it is the strengthening of force or the improvement of technology brought by the floating city.

  —So, what the imperial capital really wants is some more important things lurking behind the floating city.

  Even Ian couldn't find it for a while.

  But Ian will not give up Floating Void City.

  The sugar-coated cannonballs thrown by the imperial capital are too much sugar. Although it may be to hide the outrageous cannonballs of the same size, Ian has always been indifferent.

  A prophet needs to dare to make judgments, otherwise, how can he lead to a better future!

   So, that's it.

  Including Ian, all the imperial nobles took an oath and signed the agreement.

  On the empire's first floating city, the road leading to the sky is now fully unfolded.

Then…

  The city of the far frontier, under the watchful eyes of Ian and others who returned to the ground, slowly drove towards the Feiyandi fortress group in the northwest direction.

   "It's no longer necessary."

Shaking his head slightly, Ian turned around and walked towards the airship. His tone was calm: "Even if Feiyandi can block the floating city, it has to mobilize two fourth energy levels—and the second prince and the head of the Cangyun Knights are both there." Here, in other words, if you want to block the Floating Void City under their protection, you must at least use four fourth energy levels."

  The four fourth-level powers were dispatched just to block the advance of the Floating Void City, so how would the fortress of Feiyan Land deal with the counterattack of the Imperial Legion? In haste, Feiyan Land will definitely not be able to stop this raid on the city in the far frontier, and the empire will definitely be able to regain the fortress they had fallen before.

  Even... straight to the depths of Feiyandi!

  The fact is exactly the case.

Terra 775, July 28th, the strategic fortress of the empire, the floating city "Far Frontier" came to the Absalom fortress group in the Flaming Land, five permanent fortresses, and 19 giant firepower fortresses were burned overnight by strong winds and flames As fly ash, turned into a cloud of dust.

  Where the floating city passed was a scorched earth ruin, mountains collapsed, fortifications collapsed, and everything ushered in final destruction.

More than 25,000 Feiyan soldiers were burned on the spot, and five times the Feiyan garrison was defeated and scattered in the surrounding mountains—they were like frightened birds. When they heard the thunderous sound of the floating city, they were like thousands of soldiers. The engine of Ten Thousand Harmony is roaring, and it will immediately tremble and burrow into the burrow dug by itself.

One hundred thousand troops—extremely modernized, undergoing rigorous training, and pure full-time veterans lose their fighting power overnight. This kind of loss is unacceptable even for a big country like Feiyan. They want to deal with it, but they will find it soon. There are no technologies and weapons that can effectively deal with the floating city.

The front line tried its best to suppress the news of the fall of the Absalom fortress group, but three days later, on August 1, 775, the people in the southwestern area of ​​Flameland still knew the news of the complete collapse of the front line. Because the major legions quickly transferred from the countries of Feiyan Land are enough to show the seriousness of the situation.

  The first wave of refugees appeared in Flame Land.

At this time, the city of Far Frontier had already entered the territory of Feiyan Land, and the Western Empire Legion that followed was also guarding the flanks of the Floating Void City, and at the same time, quickly built a fortress on the original site of the city in the southwest area of ​​Feiyan Land, and built a forward base .

  Two days later, only the fortress city 'Baye City' was left in the entire southwest theater of Feiyandi, which was still struggling.

But at this time, Flameland also found a way to deal with Floating Void City—they used a peculiar virtual world technology, perhaps sublimated from demon technology, or another kind of superb field guiding ability, they Temporarily distorting the natural spiritual energy field in a large area, forcing the engine wear rate of the floating city to increase greatly, making it impossible to fly with the help of natural power.

But at this time, the empire had stabilized its advance base located in the southwest of Flameland. Even the remaining demon legions around the Misty Forest were still attacking the supply line in the west of the empire, but the agricultural sheds and agricultural buildings that had sprung up around the fortress They all said that the imperial army had no intention of retreating this time.

  There is no supply, they grow it locally. In any case, it must be killed in place.

More than that.

   On the 6th, the Lieshan Volunteer Army cooperated with the Imperial Yuanyan Expeditionary Force to cross the desert, and the troops pointed directly at Tengyandi. The next day, King Tengyan had to convene an internal meeting of the Nemathus blood line to summon the coalition forces to fight against the enemy.

    On the 8th, the Alliance of Seven Cities announced that it would officially join the war. The Tranquil Sea Fleet went straight to the Red Gorge and blocked twelve ports. On the same day, Junling Fort revealed their trump card—colossi of extreme combat with a height of more than 80 meters broke out from the depths of the earth. They have dug an extremely concealed underground passage thousands of meters underground, crossing the The empire's line of defense penetrated straight into the hinterland of the five counties in the Northland.

  On the 11th, the diplomatic envoy of Feiyandi visited the far shore island.

   On the 15th, the Silent Fleet of Far Shore Island appeared near the offshore waters of the Seven Cities Alliance. At the same time, the Celestial Royal Court's star-chasing army blocked the Canaan Moore Hanging Valley Fortress, and the tribal countries of the Nine Cold and Silent Mountains announced the establishment of the Hanshan Federation, and reached an alliance with the Celestial Royal Court to join the war against the empire and the Canaan Moor Alliance.

Up to now, on the continent of Terra, apart from the chaotic kingdoms of the dark mountain fortresses, the eternally neutral capital of knowledge, and the silent land of Yanjiang, all the countless forces on the continent have participated in this Terra war .

  The Setar Empire-Canaan Moore Alliance against the Celestial Royal Court-Hanshan Alliance. At the same time, the empire wants to suppress Flameland and Steep Hill Fort, and the Heavenly Court also wants to prevent Ganterigum from going south.

  The two major alliances need to be vigilant against Yanjiang’s move at the same time. This is a respect for the former overlord of the mainland, and it is also a precaution not to want the other side to fall to any side. The dwarves are always on guard against this powerful evil neighbor.

  The long-standing enemies of the Far Shore Island and the Seven Cities Alliance finally met in the Tranquil Sea, and the Outer Flame Land, which is located on the edge of the mainland, finally welcomed the first batch of "land renters" from the Far Shore Island. This is an unavoidable cooperation and dedication, but obviously, even if they win in the end, Feiyandi will have to pay the price.

   War burns on land and sea.

On August 21, the Empire's Floating Void City Yuanjiang arrived at the junction of Tianhong and Qingting under the leadership of the two knights of the empire, Cangyun and Tayan. The three kings of Tianhong, Qingting and Huanghai, as well as them The two fourth-level crown princes, a total of five fourth-level princes, faced off against the heads of the two major knight orders and the second prince of the empire, Mikael, who was stationed in the city.

  A total of eight fourth energy levels and a strategic floating city kicked off the prelude to the **** battle above the Rand Forest.

  After the three-day **** battle, the first floating city in the history of Terra fell, and the Rand Great Forest was completely turned into history.

  Dense black smoke rushed straight into the atmosphere, and even from the perspective of outer space, one could see a piece of dark and scarlet blood smoldering in that piece of heaven and earth.

The head of the Cangyun Knights was severely injured by the King of Sunshine, Selth Absalom, and retreated under the cover of Mikhail, but the head of the Knights of Tayan retreated under the cover of the deputy head of the Patrol Knights, Frost. With the help of "Trace", at the cost of his own serious injuries, he smashed the etheric body of Tianhong King Kaldor Absalom.

  In the afternoon of the same day, Tianhong King Kaldor fell, and it was said that he was located in Crown Prince Furman Absalom, becoming the first fourth energy level to fall in this war.

  The floating city fell, the empire's offensive was frustrated, and was finally forced to leave the sky. But this is already an unimaginable result. The imperial army shrank around the original Absalom fortress group, quietly waiting for the arrival of the second floating city.

  In just one month, more than 500,000 people were killed in the battle between the Empire and Flameland, and more than 15,000 junior sublimators died in battle.

  It does not include seventy-one sublimators of the second energy level, five of the third energy level and one of the fourth energy level.

The 'Wartime Sublimator Training Method' has already started to take effect. A large number of junior sublimators who do not care about the future and the follow-up began to be spawned from the veterans who survived the first battle, and the 'Wartime Sublimator' legion began to appear, which also It also means the intensification of war.

  History rolls forward, never looking back.

  When all countries are caught in a multi-front battlefield, the people of the empire gradually began to realize the fact that they are "a member of the empire" amidst the early publicity and tragedy.

  The terminal network and the many preparations for the construction of the floating city system have also made many people realize that the floating city, which has been invincible in the propaganda, will be built in their hometown.

  Amid the endless cheers and expectations, the major territories have also started their own floating city construction plans. Although there are speeds and slow times, the progress is indeed progressing.

  The same is true for the silver peak collar.

  On August 25th, the preliminary structure of the Great Snow Peak Holy Land in Nanling, Yinfengling, and Daxueding Holy Land was completed, and the fairy lair was relocated with the help of the frozen fish instructor.

  Ian planned to have a good chat with Mentor Frozen Fish and Hua An Frost Butterfly about matters related to the five major psychic powers and the site selection of the floating city, but before that, he got another piece of news.

  The dragon kings' review of the dragon of the abyss is over.

   Moreover, because of the World War and the Dragon of the Abyss, the other two Dragon Kings also woke up at this time.
