Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 199: Barriers of Honor

Views:

The winter of Pluto came very early.

From August to December. During this four-month period, the activity of the planet's core slows down, causing the surface to lose heat. The monsoon from north to south brings severe cold air, thousands of miles of frost, and the sky and earth are extremely vast.

This is the beginning of winter, and the temperature will be lower every day/day tomorrow. In this way, the temperature during the day dropped to a very comfortable level. It's like spring and autumn on the earth, but the good days are very short. By the middle of the month, the daytime has dropped to around 0 degrees, making life activities very difficult. Even the Blood Eagle base began to reduce the amount of training.

When it started to snow, clusters of gray snowflakes fell, covering the base's playground, buildings, warehouses and factory buildings with a layer of hoarfrost. In order to prevent the roof of the building from being crushed by too much snow, the base had to organize manpower to remove snow every day. This is another type of battle, and the physical strength paid is no less than fighting against the sword demon.

However, with the arrival of winter, the traces of the sword demon's haunting gradually decreased. Except for the ten tribes who have mastered the core technology of the planet, it is difficult for other tribes to migrate on a large scale in this weather. This made the bases at the back of the war zone breathe a sigh of relief, and even ten of the sword demons of the powerful tribes, due to their nature of loving heat and shying away from cold, their combat effectiveness also dropped rapidly in winter.

Rosen's choice to run the offense this season wasn't random.

Before winter, the Blood Eagle base received another five hundred recruits from the Sirius reserve regiment. Due to the severe cold weather, their training was not as frequent as Alan's at that time. In their free time, they either helped the base remove snow, or went to Alan's workshop to participate in the development of new projects.

The detailed plan of the Fire Rifle has been submitted to Windsor Bello, who will then transfer it to Horn. For a long time to come, Bethkind's Mowu factory will focus on fire rifles as its main production target. After all, what they want to meet is the fighting needs of nearly 300,000 soldiers on Sirius. Windsor Bello decided to completely replace the standard equipment of the legionnaires. The huge profits brought about by this are enough for Bethkind to continue to rise in the financial index in the next few years.

Allen started the development of another sequence after the Fire Rifle. This basic sequence is nothing more than an ordinary source shield, which has the characteristics of absorbing energy shocks and resisting physical blows. What Allen has to do is not only to modify its energy channeling array to be suitable for ordinary soldiers. There is also the effect of group defense.

The sequence program named "Honor Barrier" has completed the relevant design, and is currently entering the stage of data collection. If there is no accident, before the end of this winter, it can be produced in batches, and it will be used experimentally in the blood eagle base.

According to Allen's design, the barrier of honor can be activated five times when used alone. When used alone, the effect is not obvious. It just forms an ordinary source shield, but if it is used in groups, it will build a source barrier. Its sturdiness depends on the number of users. A barrier formed by about a hundred people is enough to reach the full blow of the sword demon chief or general. A barrier of a thousand people can reduce the power of high-energy cannons by 75%.

As for the consumption of the barrier, every two times is equivalent to the source force equivalent of a fire missile. When soldiers are equipped with fire rifles and honor barriers, how the commander reasonably arranges defense and attack will be a new tactical issue.

Of course, that's not the scope of Allen's consideration.

This day at the end of August is the time for data collection for the second round of Fortress of Honor. It's still the field where the fire rifle was tested, hundreds of people

The recruits wear the finished products produced in the workshop for testing. The recruits lined up in a phalanx, and opposite them was Ke Jiesi, who was holding a steel eagle saber.

Allen nodded and said, "It's time to start."

Ke Jiesi smiled at the recruits on the opposite side: "Boys, use all your strength to activate the barrier. Don't let me kill you."

The source power exploded, and Ke Jiesi directly activated the second-order engraving. When the Thunder Titan's pattern emerged, the Steel Eagle Sword was powered on, and the pressure in the entire space was astonishing. Even if the original ancestor projection did not appear, everyone knew that Ke Jiesi's next blow would not be easy.

Allen reached out and clenched his fist, and the soldiers roared in unison, raising their left hands one after another. Wearing something like a bracelet on their left cavity, that's the test vehicle for Bulwark of Honor. As the soldiers injected the source force into the vehicle, the shields were activated one by one, and the shields under the shields were connected into pieces, finally forming a thick source force barrier with six-sided light patterns passing from time to time.

The barrier of honor is activated, Ke Jiesi is not welcome anymore. With a yell, the momentum exploded, and the invisible impact spread in a fan shape starting from him, and went straight to the array of soldiers on the opposite side. In addition to being affected by Ke Jiesi's momentum, his face looked a little pale. Under the invisible impact caused by the source force, the soldiers behind the barrier showed no other abnormalities. Ke Jiesi nodded secretly, and suddenly he leaned forward, pointing forward with the long knife, and a flash of lightning was first aroused on the knife. In an instant, the electric light grew stronger, completely enveloping the knife and the person, like a thunderbolt crossing the space between the two sides, hitting the barrier of honor heavily.

There was a flash of lightning, and thunder-like violent noises came and went one after another. Under the impact of the two, large clusters of electric beads shot out continuously from the electric light on Kejiesi's knife, and when the electric beads hit the barrier, another series of martyrdom followed. The explosion lasted for a full ten seconds, and all the thunder and light waves were just poured out. The barrier of honor flashed twice before disappearing, and the faces of the soldiers behind were ashen. After a while, one by one's feet became weak and they sat down on the ground.

No one was hurt!

"Not bad." Ke Jiesi praised, with his eyesight, it is not difficult to see that these soldiers are weak because they are exhausted. It's just that he was overwhelmed by his own momentum and didn't have much confidence in the barrier of honor, so he felt afraid. Even now that the test is completed, all of them fell to the ground.

Allen said calmly: "It still needs to go through some tests..."

At this time, the heads of the people went dark. Looking up, it turned out to be a spaceship hovering above the base. After adjusting its direction, it slowly landed in the direction of the big playground. The whole body of this ship is pitch black, and the edges of the wings are bright red like blood, full of oppressive smell. Ke Jiesi frowned: "It seems to be a spaceship spreading death, how could they come?"

In the command building, Berry brought two other majors to the playground. On the big playground, Major Luda has arrived ahead of schedule. Bailey glared at him fiercely, and asked, "Major, why didn't you notify me in advance when the admiral/admiral came?"

Major Luda smiled and said, "You probably have to ask General Lusen yourself about this."

Naturally, Bailey would not really ask Lu Sen. He was notified just now that the Legion Commander of the Death Spread, General of the Federation Lu Sen Daunan actually came to visit him in a big way. Now is the time when the death spread is advancing towards the fire place, and Bailey can't figure out the reason why Lu Sen came to the base at this moment.

One thing is for sure, that's definitely not a good thing.

But this time Lu Sen was not on his "Yan Mo", but an ordinary frigate that spread death. After the spaceship landed, the lifting deck fell to the ground, and a burly figure immediately appeared at the cabin opening. When that figure appeared, it was almost like a black hole, making people feel that the front and back of him were pitch black,

If there is no bottomless abyss.

At this time, a little coldness began to light up in the bottomless abyss.

That was Lu Sen's one eye.

With a heavy square-toed military boot stepping out of the hatch, this veteran admiral/general, known throughout the Federation for his cruelty and bloodthirsty, stepped off the deck. Lu Sen's short gray hair stood upright in the cold wind like steel thorns, and the skull eyepatch covered his left eye, making his only eyeball as bright and sharp as a falcon. He pursed his lips tightly, expressionless, making it impossible to see what was in his heart.

At the neck of the cloak, a fur collar made from the fur of Youdi Minghu is dancing in the wind, like a circle of purple-black flames. Under the cloak, on the black-and-gold-edged uniform of Spread of Death, the badges pinned to the chest are showing the general's military exploits. Admiral/Admiral Lu Sen walked off the spaceship with his hands behind his back. Major Lu Da rushed to meet him. Ha Wan saluted, "Dear General Lu Sen, you are here."

After Lu Sen, another person disembarked from the ship. It was a young girl, and I don't know if it was born like this, or because of interest. The hair color on the left and right sides is one gray and one black, tied into a pair of twin ponytails of different colors. She has a glamorous appearance, and her rare black eyes are rippling like the waves of the Styx, bringing only the deepest despair to people. The slightly slender body was tightly wrapped in the dark military uniform of Death Spread. When Luda saw her, his throat felt dry, but he didn't dare to let his eyes go beyond the girl's knees.

He licked his lips and said, "I didn't expect Lady Catherine to come too."

Death Catherine, one of Lu Sen's generals. Only 17 years old, with superb combat power. Together with Windsor Bello, head of the Sirius Legion, and Mei Lin, head of the Queen of Roses, they are known as the three most outstanding women in the federal army.

Colonel Berry led the two majors to salute, and said, "I don't know General Lusen, but Major General Catherine is here. We have lost our courtesy."

"It's okay." Lu Sen spoke, his voice was deep and deep, like the wind whistling in a canyon, which made people's ears uncomfortable. He said: "Colonel Bailey, I'm short on time, so I'll make a long story short. I heard that the Blood Eagle Base has developed some pretty good magic weapons in the past few months, called fire rifles. I've read the report, and this is indeed The equipment that will significantly improve the combat power of our army, I wonder who is in charge of this project?"

Bailey felt very bad, but he had to answer: "It's Sergeant Allen, General."

"Then call him, I want to meet this great sergeant."

"this… "

Bai Li was trying to find an excuse to decline, but Lu Sen let out a muffled snort, and everyone felt as if the surrounding air had frozen. An invisible pressure made them all a little breathless. Bailey raised his head reluctantly, met Lu Sen's radiant one-eyed eyes, and said helplessly, "I'll call for Sergeant Allen to come here."

After that, he said to Peric: "Go and inform Allen, and the marshal..."

He lowered his voice for the last sentence, only the major could hear it.

Peric hurried down, while Lusen glanced at the base and said, "Colonel Bailey, you have done a good job. The logistics base has developed the magical weapons that can provide the frontlines, which is of great help to us. This credit , I will report truthfully, you are expected to be promoted."

"Thank you for your kindness, General. It's just that Marshal Windsor Bello personally approved the research and development of this fire rifle, and specified that it will only be used within the Sirius Legion. After all, the practicality and stability of the newly developed weapon have yet to be tested, so it is not appropriate to announce it hastily. Otherwise, if something goes wrong in actual combat, no one can take the responsibility." Berry said in a deep voice.

Guess there will be more
