Chapter 486 Attack

Chapter 486 Attack
……

Mumble, grunt, grunt!

For a moment, sand splashed on the beach, and nimble shadows leaped up from under the mud and sand. The sand they quickly shook off during their movements raised a light dust.

They were a group of undead troops dressed in strange costumes.

Matthew took a quick glance and confirmed that the main threat posed by these "special forces soldiers" came from the glowing double halberds they held.

This double halberd only has a gentle light flowing on its surface.

But there is a large amount of electric current surging beneath the glimmering surface. Once hit head-on, it will inevitably suffer a lot of lightning damage.

at the same time.

Soldiers wearing merman-like costumes also appeared near the beach.

These soldiers' weapons were lighter, they were the electric shock guns that Matthew had seen before on Hume III.

Also.

Three large ships and fifteen small boats appeared in the sea not far away.

Have to admit.

Stuuk Industries' stealth technology is truly powerful.

It is not easy to conceal Matthew's perception through invisibility, let alone hiding so many people at the same time.

Again--

If this undead army is brought to Aindor, there will be no army on the mainland that can match it!

Between thoughts.

The special forces soldiers on the beach quickly surrounded the three people.

There were only more than twenty soldiers, but it felt as if there were hundreds of them.

Even in perception.

Matthew was unable to determine the exact location of these soldiers for a while.

"Phantom technology?"

Matthew glanced at Melinda.

The latter nodded slightly:
"A spell that has been psychicized and completed with a long-term filling."

"Until the combat uniform is damaged to a certain extent, it is often difficult to tell which shadow is the soldier's true body."

Matthew was impressed by the advanced technology of Stuluk Industries and prepared to take action.

But Melinda signaled him to stay calm.

"Are you from Kaiba?"

She took the initiative to step forward and shouted at the soldiers:

"Who is your commander?"

"Stuart, or Hawes?"

The soldiers remained unmoved.

However, they did not launch an attack, but simply surrounded the three people with weapons in hand.

Melinda continued to yell.

A few minutes later.

A hovercraft appeared on the sea.

There were only two people on the hovercraft. Apart from the pilot, there was only a tall undead constructed with an elegant metal shell.

Different from the eyes of other Necrons.

The commander's eyes were actually dark purple.

"It's you, Stuart."

Melinda's expression relaxed.

She whispered to Matthew:
"He is the general's man. I have met him several times before. I can try to convince him."

Matthew nodded slightly.

"I guess you set up an ambush here, but it's not for me, right?"

Melinda greeted Commander Stuart with a smile.

Stuart said calmly:

"indeed so."

"But you have fallen into the trap we set in advance, which may lead to the ultimate failure of our mission. You still need to bear some responsibility for this."

Melinda said carefully:
"We can leave right away."

Stuart sneered:
"How do I know if you are spies sent by the royal family?"

"It may not be that easy to leave now."

Melinda frowned and said:

"I have always been loyal to the general."

Stuart said lightly:

"That was before."

"After the general lost power, how many people secretly defected to the royal family?"

"At least you can't send me away with just a few words."

Melinda was surprised:

"Has your relationship with the royal family become so bad now?"

Stuart's lavender eyes stared at her closely.

I stared at it for almost a minute.

He then said coldly:

"Don't you know yet?"

"Just now, the royal faction attacked the Heart of Heaven and forcibly took over the Cangtian Matrix."

"A large number of stubborn ancients died in the battle, and the few who survived were also imprisoned..."

"In order to deal with the desperate actions of the royal faction, we have no choice but to make large-scale military deployments. The waters of Stuluk have now entered a level three alert state. Any unit approaching the sea must be inspected by us!"

"Now the royal family has mastered the Cangtian Matrix, which means they have the upper hand. I'm sorry, but under this situation, I can't let go of anyone who might be a spy!"

"Even you, it's the same."

Hear this.

Kunta retorted instinctively:

"impossible!"

"When I just left, the Tianxin Land was still safe!"

Stuart glanced at Kunda and sneered:
"Are minotaurs also wise enough to practice psionics?"

Kunda didn't take it as an offense.

He just responded to Stuart's ridicule with a calm look.

The latter was silent for a few seconds before speaking:

"According to the intelligence I received, the attack took place thirty minutes ago, and the whereabouts of the Sin Master are currently unknown. This is the best news for us.

This means that the towering matrix has not yet completely fallen into the hands of the royal faction!

You should be able to hear from us soon..."

He hasn't finished speaking yet.

Kunda's body suddenly trembled slightly.

Followed by.

There was also a buzzing sound in Matthew's ears -

That's a special kind of sound wave.

After being transformed by the towering matrix, it will become a message with superimposed pictures and texts!
Matthew saw a huge basin with mysterious stone pillars standing everywhere, and flames rising to the sky.

Every moment, screams of the stubborn people dressed similarly to Kunda could be heard.

A large number of troops surrounded the basin.

Endless firepower destroyed the stone pillars that looked like mysterious ancient relics.

The flames and plasma took away the lives of one person after another like the god of death.

The end of the picture.

A text message slowly emerged:

……

"The Tianxin Land has been severely attacked. The Cantian Matrix may be taken over by others. Please disconnect from the Cantian Matrix immediately.

But please don't give up hope.

We will meet in dreams.

——Guda

……

It is a message from Master Guda.

Matthew glanced at the young minotaur next to him, who stood there as if he had been electrocuted, seemingly totally at a loss as to what to do.

the other side.

Although Melinda was included in the Santian Matrix by Matthew, she did not have enough authority, so Matthew quickly told her the news he had received.

Melinda's face changed drastically after hearing this. She couldn't help but mutter to herself:

"Why would the royal family attack the Tianxin area at this time?"

Stuart sneered:
"The royal family has always been at odds with the ancients. This is not the first day you've known this."

"Otherwise, it would not have been General who signed the detailed agreement on the planet Stuluk with the Ancients."

"Okay, I've told you all this for the sake of our old friendship."

"You three are not allowed to leave anywhere from now on. Come on board with us first!"

Matthew frowned.

Melinda suddenly said:

"Okay, we'll go with you."

She gave Matthew a look, and after hesitating for a few seconds, he decided to believe her for once.

present.

The group of three, accompanied by several special forces soldiers, boarded another larger hovercraft.

They headed towards the big ship at a very fast speed.

During this period.

Stuart was quite polite to them.

They didn't search their bodies, nor did they use any restraining devices. They just asked the soldiers to keep a close eye on their every move.

This action made Matthew even more suspicious.

At this moment.

Melinda had already used occult techniques to establish a telepathic link with him.

"Don't believe him!"

"He's lying to us!"

Melinda looked at the Seahorse Commander on another hovercraft about forty or fifty meters away with a smile on her face.

She seemed to be in a good mood.

But the tone of what was said to Matthew was completely different!
“How come you see?”

Although Matthew also noticed some clues, he was not a native resident of Stuluk after all, and knew very little about the disputes within the Necrons.

Melinda explains:

“Among the descendants of the empire, the king of each generation holds supreme power, but the king usually lives in the space fortress and rarely gets involved in external development affairs;

The latter part of power was in the hands of successive generals.

The general and the king formed a check and balance.

One of them is the number one figure and the other is the number two figure, but there is actually not much conflict between them.

Because of the iron laws of the Antu Empire.

A general cannot be called king.

The king may not concurrently serve as a general.

In most cases, although both sides have their own constraints, direct conflict rarely occurs. "

Matthew wondered:

"Then why are there royal factions and general factions?"

Melinda responded:

"The general faction is easy to understand, but the royal faction is much more complicated. It involves a third person - the Prince of the Dead."

"The successive princes often hold power second only to the king and the generals. One day in the future, he will eventually replace the original king and become the new king."

"Therefore, the conflict between the king and the prince is irreconcilable."

"After the Necromancer Prince was exiled, in order to balance the power of the generals on the planet Stuluk, the Space Fortress airdropped a group of people here. Among them was Captain Grey Eagle, whom you met. He is a die-hard royalist!"

“But many people in the royal faction have actually been secretly bribed by the Prince of the Dead, so it is difficult to confirm the purpose of these people’s actions.”

"That's what I find odd."

"After the Great Rupture, the general's power has been greatly reduced, and he himself has even been exiled by the Deep Frost King. Under such circumstances, if the royal family is loyal to the Deep Frost King, there is no need to raise an army to cause trouble."

"What's more, the Royal Family has probably put most of their efforts into assisting the Sky Eagle after the accident. This strategic weapon cannot be lost. If it is damaged too seriously, it will be a heavy blow to the Royal Family."

"Under the circumstances, I really can't find any reason for them to suddenly split up their forces and attack Tianxin Land."

Matthew thought for a while:
"Could it be because of the premature return of the Prince of the Dead?"

Melinda said:

"It is possible."

"But it is more likely that the general and the Undead Prince have reached some kind of agreement, and the attack on the Heart of Heaven may be a double act between the two of them..."

"After all, since it involves the Ancient Ones, the general will have the opportunity to return to the planet Stuluk and legitimately confront the forces of the Deep Frost King."

"The most direct evidence is the movement of the Azure Dragon Sequence—"

"If the Azure Dragon Sequence is a royal faction, then why didn't they participate in the rescue of the Skyhawk, but instead pursued us relentlessly?"

"Besides, he didn't even check our weapons when he asked us to board the ship just now. He was obviously afraid of provoking us..."

"I think Kaiba and Canglong are both the general's troops, or some of them have been infiltrated by the Prince of the Dead. We don't know what kind of tacit understanding there is between the two."

"But we must find a way to paralyze them, throw them off, and then quickly enter the outer layer of the Earth's Core Dream!"

Matthew nodded secretly in his mind.

It seems that Melinda's brain is still quite useful as long as she doesn't feel so good about herself.

"My only worry now is this stupid minotaur."

The hovercraft was approaching the deck rapidly.

Melinda said quickly:

"He looks very disturbed. I wonder if he can react in a while?"

"It would be even worse if he forgets the entrance to the Earth's core dreamland!"

Matthew said calmly:

"Don't underestimate this young man."

"I can feel that although he is confused inside, his emotions are still stable. He just needs some time to digest it."

"Just take him and go, I'll catch up with you soon..."

Melinda hesitated for a moment and then agreed.

Ten seconds later.

The hovercraft slowly approached the ship.

A floating ladder was lowered from the top of the ship.

Matthew took the initiative and calmly walked towards the escalator:

"Make way, make way."

"I'll go up first."

The soldiers did not suspect anything and made way for him one after another.

Snapped!
Matthew stepped on the floating ladder.

Available in the next second.

His body grew dramatically.

In the blink of an eye, it turned into a giant sea turtle with a body length of more than 40 meters!
"Wild Form: Deep Sea Dragon Turtle"!
An unprecedented weight pressed down on the floating ladder, causing the ship to tilt violently.

boom!
The soldiers haven't reacted yet.

Then I saw a huge dragon turtle lying on the side of the ship.

Matthew casually picked it up -

boom!
The mechanical ship immediately overturned in the direction of the dragon turtle, and then was turned upside down on the sea!

All of a sudden.

The sea was in chaos.

The deep-sea dragon turtle walked on the waves and drove large numbers of seahorse troops on the deck into the sea!

in chaos.

He noticed several signs of ritual sites being activated on the deck of the mechanical ship.

"Demon-sealing magnetic field?"

"Noise duct?"

"This commander really has bad intentions!"
