Chapter 903 Ian is Watching You

The Feiyan people think that the phantom of the virtual world like the silver sun is probably some kind of powerful virtual machine god controlled by the leader of the silver peak.

It's not surprising that Fei Yandi guessed this way, because Ian obviously has a lot of pre-epoch civilization technology, and the technology about the Void Machine God is really reasonable, which can also explain the opponent's background in psionic technology.

Of course, Fei Yandi didn't suspect that his fusion demon spies were exposed... After all, fusion demons and artificial demons were created to hide the truth from Mech-God.

All in all, whether it is the Void Mechanic or the Psionic Mystery, there is indeed an unknown technology in the Silver Peak Territory, which can allow them to resist the erosion of the Cursed Soil of the Flying Flame Land.

Cursed soil.The Black Soil of Cursed Grudges, that is, the void space that Feiyandi had infested with the cursed grudges.

Ian's evaluation here is that the crystal carpet similar to his swarm path can allow the demon army to move quickly, hide their bodies, and move freely in the virtual world.

The empire's psychic legion had clearly caught the traces of these demons several times, but because of the protection of the cursed soil, they couldn't really force them to fight head-on.

Cursed soil is essentially a demon lair that can spread. It cannot exist in the virtual world at first, and requires a special instrument and altar to perform a "curse ritual" to start spreading.

As for the grievance ceremony, it needs to be catalyzed by a lot of death and curses, or it needs to be catalyzed by a special spiritual energy field.

There aren't too many deaths in Nanling yet, and the special psionic field is suppressed by the silver sun, and it can only spread and solidify after building a stronghold.

Without the cursed soil, the advancing speed of the demon army would be greatly slowed down, and only in places covered by the cursed soil could the demonic army move freely between the virtual world and reality, achieving maneuvers that were impossible for manpower.

The Silver Sun was obviously Nanling's first line of defense against the demon army.

But the problem is not here.

Most importantly, when the demon army had to camp in the material world because the cursed soil could not be solidified, they were attacked by the armored troops of the Nanling Army.

At the end of June 775 on Terra, the Demon Army had just broken through several fortresses, crossed the Hurricane Bridge, and came to the Golden Plain. On the first night in Nanling, they enjoyed the joy of night raids.

Even demons need to rest, especially since they have been fighting in the western region for a month and there is no cursed soil, so they built a 'camp' to transform the local psionic field and break the suppression of the weird silver sun.

But who would have thought that when the construction of the fortifications was in full swing, beams of light pierced through the air from extremely far away, hitting the demons' camp with precision.

Bang!
The hot melted light beam bombarded like no money, burning and melting the newly built steel skeleton and the ground. A small number of demons were hit, and part of their bodies were also wiped out by the light element weapon. Of course they will not die, but it will take time re-condensed.

"Who?! How did you lurk so close!"

Death Knell, who was still observing the silver sun in the Void Realm, came back to his senses. He immediately noticed those Nanling armors shooting from a few kilometers away. He was shocked and also had an incredible feeling: "How dare they die like this?"

While the camp was raided and construction slowed down, armor and drivers were clearly worth more than some of their imps and camps... Are the Southlings crazy?Use armor to do a self-destruct attack?
"Destroy them."

Deathstroke didn't do it himself, it was just a few sets of armor, so he didn't need him at all.

As soon as the order was given, several fusion demon officers flew out, chasing those armored units that had already started to turn around and run away.

"Hey, the speed is so slow?"

They originally thought they would chase for a while. After all, although the demon's speed is fast, the armor is not slow. They also just tried to track down the nearest supply point of the armor.

But in fact, these armors were easily overtaken by them.

"How can this group of armored people not understand?"

Halfway through the chase, the fusion demon officer felt a little strange: "Look, when they encounter bushes and potholes, they don't hide, they don't jump or speed up, they just run over like mentally retarded! "

"Are you scared by us?"

Another fused demon is quite optimistic, but he is not very clear about the specific situation. The power of demons can convert them into virtual life and increase their spiritual power, but wisdom is obviously not within the scope of the increase.

Because these armors can be called stupid action pathfinding capabilities, the demon officers were puzzled, and they were not even in a hurry to destroy these armors, but planned to capture them alive and get some information about Nanling from the pilots.

After all, they are demons. It is not easy to dig out information from people's brains.

Unfortunately, there is no brain and no soul in these armors.

The moment the demon officer approached, the voice they heard was a rigid and cold voice.

[It is detected that the enemy is within the killing range...the self-explosion program starts]

Then, there was a mighty explosion.

All of a sudden, three extremely dazzling fireballs appeared in the distance, and the golden-red flames shone brightly, illuminating the night on the plain.

The demons were at a loss.

Deathstroke was at a loss.

The entire legion was at a loss.

--What the hell?
The death knell stood up suddenly, and the demon general looked up in shock, looking at the fusion demon officer chasing armor in the distance - just now, he sensed the signal that the officers under his command collapsed and had to return to the void.

For the demon, this is basically tantamount to death. It is not easy to find a fighting body for the fusion demon. After all, not any fusion demon is like Huo Xin Fu Ying, who mainly relies on the soul to fight.

"They blew their armor?!"

But even so, the death knell was too late to be angry. At this moment, his heart was full of absurdity: "Can the number of armor in Nanling exceed forty? There are still experienced drivers, are they wasting like this?!"

No matter how unbelievable, the fact has already happened. Although Death Knell couldn't understand why the enemy did this, he barely understood that the other party wanted to interfere with the self-destruct attack of himself and others spreading the cursed soil.

But if it doesn’t work today, let’s continue tomorrow—although the camp has been destroyed, we need to sort out the materials a little bit, clean up the surrounding knight manors and refugees, and use their flesh and blood to gather the curse ceremony, and the curse soil can still spread easily of.

But the next day, another armor came to attack.

This time, the demon army was actually prepared, but for some reason, they couldn't sense the presence of the armor at all.

Therefore, another round of pouring melt beams and electromagnetic bombs not only destroyed the cursed soil camp set up by the demons, but also destroyed their instruments that affect the psionic field - it took at least two days to repair that thing .

This time, the demons were not stupid enough to approach the armor alive, and when they realized that they could not escape, the armor blew themselves up decisively.

"This is impossible!"

Regarding the report of his subordinates, Death Knell feels 'outrageous' - they are demons, and they have the perception of the ethereal state, let alone human beings, even a fly can be locked at a distance of five kilometers.

Even if those armors are sheltered by Void Realm creatures such as Void Mechanics, it is absolutely impossible to sneak into a few kilometers around their camp and start a surprise attack!
But this kind of thing not only happened, the enemy even exploded himself extremely decisively... Is this possible?The status of an armored driver is almost the same as that of a sublimator, and it will be doubled if the sublimator is the driver.

But the other party didn't say anything, and immediately blew himself up when he encountered danger, not seeking to kill, anyway, he would never fall into their hands.

More than that.

In addition to the armor attack, many strange things happened around the demon camp.

In the middle of the night, there would be some strange sounds from the Void Realm, like ghosts wandering around, or howling wild beasts, and the eerie sounds would last until the next morning.

Sometimes, the lights will reflect the shadows of people who don't seem to exist; the sound of dripping water from unknown sources will keep ringing in the narrow room.

And once the demon spies who went out to explore the situation on the golden plain left the sight of their companions for more than a few seconds, these demons would disappear.

When they reappeared, these demons were already insane—although it sounds nonsense, but demons are also intelligent creatures, and they will indeed be insane—these demons shivered and curled up aside, only chanting 'light' 'There is light', 'the light is so bright'...such words.

And some demons will laugh nervously: "Someone, someone is watching us! It's the light...it's a monster!"

Even if Deathstroke read his soul, he couldn't read any valuable information.

Only occasionally, he could sense a little abnormality... He could sense that the soul structure of these demons had been carefully dissected and transformed by humans.

——Someone is deconstructing the existence form of these man-made demons in reverse.

Weird, so weird.

Even though the lemurs had no fear, the actions of the demon legion were visibly cautious.

Obviously they are the demon army, but it turns out that they are ordinary people who strayed into the demon realm!

"Don't care about them! Push forward together!"

At this point, Deathstroke had no other choice. He could only order the troops to search for the possible Golden Plain Manor in threes and threes, using life as the foundation of the cursed soil.

But sadly, it was empty.

The demon legion did find those knight manors in the golden plain. Each of these manors that use the special geology of the golden plain to grow various precious crops is a small fortress, surrounded by a circle of villages.

Theoretically, those knight lords would not give up their territory even if they died, but the fact is that, not only the knight lords disappeared, but even the commoners disappeared.

The scorched earth tactics have not yet begun, and the golden plain has been cleared by solid walls.

Then, there was the explosion.

It wasn't just the blood pressure of the death knell that exploded, but also those knight fortresses—like those self-destructing harassment armors, these knight manors were buried with terrifying high explosives, and when the number of demons entering the manor exceeded the standard, they would be killed immediately. Detonate.

Small mushroom clouds rose slowly in the golden plain.

"Who is the devil here?!"

When Deathstroke received the damage report, he was obviously a demon, but his blood pressure was about to explode: "Explosion, explosion, explosion, why are they all explosions? This Earl of Silver Peak started out as an explosive?"

The answer is drinks!A blood sugar explosion can be considered an explosion.

The demon army has never encountered such an enemy: all actions of their own side seem to be seen through, all actions of their own side have long been predicted, and no matter what they do, they will fall into a trap... Until then, they didn't feel it.

They are fighting a prophet.

This feeling of being tortured is very rare for demons.In short, during this period of time, the demon legion in Feiyandi felt difficult for the first time.

And at the same time.

Nanling, led by nobles.

All the processes, including the self-detonation of the drone armor shooting, the self-destruction of the trap manor, and the elite exoskeleton team's sneak attack on the single demon under the cover of the Heart of Terra, were all broadcast live on the big screen.

[This is the ghoul, which looks like all kinds of beasts on the outside, but in fact they do not have much wisdom, so it is the humanoid demon officers who can really make action decisions.Their physical fitness is quite strong, even if they wear exoskeleton armor, they may not be able to beat them, but this is not important, as long as you seize the right time and use the charging rifle to focus fire, these monsters will also suffer heavy damage]

An old man with the appearance of a white-haired expert is explaining the essence of the existence and analysis conclusions of demons to many people in detail.

[Look, our unmanned armor has accurately eliminated the three lemurs—at least for ten days, they cannot recondense again, although completely eradicating them requires entering the Void Realm or performing spiritual attacks, but the reduction The number of their material worlds can also delay the marching speed of the demon army]

A good-looking hostess is explaining the attack report in a cheerful tone: [Ah, I blew myself up.This time, the unmanned armor support lasted more than 15 minutes. Don’t be disappointed if you misjudged the audience. There will be a quiz program with prizes tomorrow. Please prepare your terminal choices. Friends who guess correctly will get a silver peak collar. points rewards...]

The male host on the other side smoothly took over the advertisement: [Next is the advertisement time: Yinfang Chamber of Commerce, Yinfengling exclusive construction grain chamber of commerce...]

[One hundred little knowledge about dealing with demons...]

At a time when the demon legion didn't know, all their actions and responses became the show of "revealing the truth" hosted by Lord Yinfeng.

Those knight lords who were forced to be relocated from the golden plain by Ian were very angry at first, but when they saw the demon army charging at a speed exceeding the armor and smashing the sneak attack armor, these lords one by one All lost their voices.

If they put it on by themselves, can they last a few minutes longer than the armor?

Even though there is no armor, you can't even walk, the only thing worthy of praise is that your shooting is very accurate, but that is also armor!

Go yourself, now I am afraid that I will really bring my own people and become the fertilizer of the devil's fertile cursed soil.

and……

These knight lords swallowed.

In the golden plain, there are still some extremely stubborn knight lords who refuse to retreat no matter how they say it.

They refused the relocation service provided by the Yinfeng collar, because they must stay in their "homeland" - they claimed that they would die in their own territory, and insulted Ian's behavior of fortifying the wall and clearing the wilderness was simply an escape and would damage the honor of the nobility.

In this regard, the Yinfeng leader evacuated all ordinary people who were willing to evacuate with them, and also provided weapons, but those people must still stay in the golden plain...

What will happen to them?
Will it also become a warning 'show'?
In addition to rejoicing in the hearts of these lords who have already retreated, it is this kind of shuddering fear.

And this show, I'm afraid it will be aired soon...

In short, the general public also knew the general structure and strength of the demon army through the program led by Yinfeng.

Although it is indeed a very powerful enemy, everyone knows where it is and how powerful it is.

And under the guidance and propaganda of the Yinfeng leader, many residents of Nanling also knew what kind of crimes these demonic legions had committed in the western region.

Those massacres, those massacres, those cities and villages full of blood and bones, those houses and manors that were completely turned into ruins... Every mutilated corpse is shocking, and every dead face makes people clench their fists.

If we let the demon army come to our homeland, our cities and villages will look like this too!

When everyone shared the same hatred, because of the overly detailed introduction and publicity, some confidence even emerged in everyone's heart.

——This is not an enemy we can't deal with!

The unknown is the greatest fear, so when everything is no longer unknown, the fear dissipates.

Coupled with an appropriate amount of courage potion and the effect of echoing others' opinions, no one in Nanling was afraid of the enemy's arrival. Instead, they all held back their energy and wanted to give the demon army a hard time!
Of course, the vast majority of people are powerless and unable to fight demons.

However, they can produce!
Whether it is explosives, weapons, or other mechanical props, under the instructions of the instructors sent by the Silver Peak Leader, the military factories and weapon workshops in Nauman City and other cities began to be overloaded-every noble leader followed their instructions. Territory conditions, refit blacksmith shops and alchemy workshops, and produce various weapons and armored parts.

Under the network control of the heart of Terra, all the alchemy workshops in the entire Nanling have become weapons production sites. They each produce part of the equipment required by the Silver Peak collar. Under the deployment of AI, they cooperate with each other in the most perfect way. .

And the parts from all sides are combined in the military factories around Nauman City, and they become brand new armors.

Although, due to objective conditions, although the defective rate of these parts is extremely high, the unmanned armor requested by Ian does not need to run for more than seven days. In addition to the strength and location of the demon army, it also consumes itself, accumulating skills and experience.

Yes, skills and experience are accumulated through death.

The Heart of Terra does not know how to control the armor to walk. This problem is very complicated, both because of the difficulty of identifying the terrain and because of the flexibility of the armor. ,

But the armor itself is constantly being optimized...from the structure to the internal parts, from the alchemy furnace to the drive shaft...

How can we be more flexible, how can we be more concealed, what kind of weapon can be used most smoothly, and can pour the greatest firepower in a short time...

Through self-optimization every calculation, the appearance of 'unmanned armor' has been greatly different from the initial image.

The Heart of Terra is growing at an astonishing rate.

The price is that the demon legion has encountered more and more armored harassment recently, and it has become more and more difficult and terrifying.

In this regard, although the death knell was very angry, he still suppressed his temper and fought steadily.

After all, although these attacks sound terrifying, they have no effect on the essence of the demon army at all.

The so-called extraordinary legion is a kind of force that completely exceeds the general logic of human society.

This is how the demon army exists. They don't need supplies. The so-called strongholds are nothing more than camps that spread the cursed soil. recovery.

Now the demon legion has repeatedly suffered setbacks in the golden plain, but Deathstroke believes that as long as they start to attack the city of Nanling, everything will be fine.

But then, something happened that broke the death knell's self-confident state of mind.

Tyra 775, July 7st, the first week of the demon army's invasion of South Ridge.

The elite armored troops led by Yinfeng launched a surprise attack at noon that day, directly destroying the first stronghold of the Demon Legion located in the southwest of the Earth Hurricane Bridge, and completely destroyed the Cursed Soil Altar of the Demon Legion.
