A hand clapped on the high-strength glass cover made of composite materials. A tired face, but with excitement in its eyes, was reflected in the overly large observation window.
Gong Bo, the director of the Black Star Castle Research Institute, was looking out the observation window. Outside the window was an underground space dug by humans, and in the center of the space, a gray-white brain was floating.
The brain was the size of a cannonball, with clear lines and tufts of purple-red nerves growing all around it. They were attached to the soil above the brain and penetrated deep into the soil.
From time to time, bursts of light flashed across the surface of the brain, flickering as if the brain was breathing.
"What a wonderful creation."
Gong Bo sighed sincerely: "Although it is still in the growth stage, it already has certain biological instincts. For example, it realized that this war, especially the invasion of the Skyfort, would pose a threat to its living environment, so it accelerated the growth of the fungus and took the initiative to attack the Skyfort's army."
"It's unimaginable, unimaginable."
A young assistant in his mid-twenties came over and said, "Teacher, according to your instructions, I have sorted out the research data on the evil spirits and the growth records of the demon brain."
Gong Bo nodded and gestured, and a soldier from Black Star Fort came over with a dark briefcase. Gong Bo took the briefcase and handed it to his assistant: "Lu Ye, you are my most proud student. Listen, Black Star Fort is finished, and we are powerless to save it. Now, I want you to take these things and this box and leave."
The young assistant called Lu Ye shuddered slightly and looked at the suitcase: "Teacher, what's in it?"
Gong Bo's smile was a little crazy: "You have guessed it, haven't you?"
Lu Ye took a deep breath, and after a while, he calmed down: "Such an important thing should be taken away by you personally, teacher. I can't complete this task."
Gong Bo shook his head: "You can do it. I have taught you all the knowledge I have. And you have a richer imagination than me. Lu Ye, do you remember what I said in the first lesson I taught you?"
Lu Ye nodded: "Teacher said that those of us who are engaged in research must have a rich imagination and a skeptical spirit that dares to question authority!"
Gong Bo said happily: "Yes, you haven't forgotten. Very good. Lu Ye, your future achievements will be higher than mine. Now I can foresee this. So, you can't stay here any longer. I want you to leave."
Lu Ye said excitedly: "Teacher, will you come with us?"
Gong Bo waved his hands and laughed, "The era of Lord Beichen and I is about to end. This will be our grave. I'm not going anywhere."
"What's more."
He knocked lightly on the observation window: "I still want to watch this little guy. I want to watch it until the end."
Lu Ye shook his head and said, "Even if I can go out, where can I go?"
"Go to the Scarlet Rift. I'll arrange for someone to escort you there."
Beichen, the Lord of Black Star Castle, strode over and said, "In that great rift valley, there is a city. It is the city closest to hell. Go there and find a man named Luo Wu and give this to him."
Beichen took out a red dagger with a golden word "Wu" engraved on the scabbard.
Lu Ye reached out to take it, only to feel that the dagger was quite heavy, and there was a faint warmth coming from the scabbard.
"Go ahead, go there and complete the goal your teacher didn't accomplish!"
Lu Ye was slightly shocked and looked at Gong Bo. Gong Bo was already lying on the observation window, as if the devil's brain outside attracted him more. Lu Ye took a deep breath, nodded, put away the dagger, picked up the suitcase, and strode away.
After the young man left, Beichen turned around and looked at Gong Bo: "Aren't you going out to welcome our distinguished guests?"
Gong Bo reluctantly left the observation window and said with a smile, "No, it's enough for Master Beichen to welcome them. I prefer to stay with this little guy."
"It's up to you." Beichen said calmly, "This farewell should be forever. Goodbye, Director Gong Bo."
Gong Bo bowed slightly: "Take care of yourself too, Lord Beichen."
Beichen raised his lips, left the room, and took the elevator to Black Star Castle. When the elevator door opened, he saw his two generals, Canglang and Shadowless General Agriv.
"Sorry for the long wait." Beichen said lightly.
Agriv said in a voice with a slight Western accent: "General Shishan has been killed. General Kuangge and Ms. Xueyan are ready to welcome guests in the city. As for the other arrangements, they are also ready."
Beichen glanced at him and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Another general shouted, "Lord City Lord, if there is nothing else, I will leave first. I plan to go outside the city to welcome guests. Maybe I can stop a general from the Sky Fortress."
Beichen nodded and said, "You can move as you wish."
The man, who had taken off his cloak and whose hair and beard were still carefully groomed, said cheerfully, "Then I'll leave. Oh, by the way, Lord City Lord. I have no intention of dying for the city. If the situation is not right, I will surrender."
Beichen said calmly: "It's okay, do as you please."
Canglang stepped back and bowed deeply: "It is my honor to serve you."
Leaving these words behind, he strode away, and in just a few steps, he had disappeared into the deep corridor.
The masked General Wuying said in a low voice: "Lord Beichen, what are your plans now?"
Beichen put his hands behind his back and walked in another direction: "I will go to the meeting hall to wait for those distinguished guests."
"I'll accompany you."
Agriv followed Beichen.
Beichen said calmly: "Aren't you going to leave? It's not too late to leave now."
Agriv said calmly, "No need. Anyway, I have already taken away all the intelligence, data and related information I have collected. I will not leave."
Beichen smiled softly: "Then I won't be polite. Oh, by the way, what's your number?"
General Wuying said softly, "I am Agriv No. 103."
"No. 103..." Beichen shook his head, "How many cyborgs like you did Agriv create?"
General Wuying said calmly, "Then I don't know. I don't have enough authority to obtain information in this regard. One thing is certain, I will definitely not be the last one."
Beichen smiled and said, "I guess you don't know where the real Agrif is, right?"
General Wuying immediately replied: "Isn't this a very normal thing?"
Beichen stopped and arrived at the conference hall: "No matter what, you 'Wuying' have helped me a lot over the years. Please say thank you to your 'father' for me."
General Wuying nodded solemnly: "I will bring it to you."
Beichen pushed open the door of the conference hall: "Then let's say goodbye here."
The city lord strode in, his powerful footsteps echoing in the hall. General Wuying closed the door only after he could no longer be seen.
... ...
boom!
A large ball of flames spurted out, igniting the fungus that rolled in from the side of the mountain road. Although the demon brain in the belly of Shenyue Peak had already formed the prototype of the Resentment Forest, it was completely incomparable to the scale of the forest in the Beidou Base. Neither did it form a ground monster like the Resentment Giant Tree, nor did it have humanoid aliens, wood women, fungus people and other accomplices. Moreover, the number of fungi was limited, and it could not even cover the entire Shenyue Peak. It could only be concentrated in the back mountain area and attack the infantry army of Qingtian Fort.
In this way, the impact of the bacteria was limited. Except for the initial stage, when they successfully invaded some soldiers and controlled them to attack. Then, the Skyforge used simple equipment such as flamethrowers to prevent the bacteria from approaching.
At the top of Shenyue Peak, Tianyang stood on a large rock and looked down. The mountain road was ablaze with fire. A fire dragon had already come nearby. It would not be long before they could join the army.
Tianyang sensed it slightly, and his star energy had almost recovered, which should be enough to activate the Galaxy Flash once.
He raised his head.
The black curtain covering the whole area had begun to thin, and gradually the daylight began to shine through the black curtain.
The number of fungi on Shenyue Peak is limited, but Tianyang was still shocked when he first discovered it.
After the family competition, he already knew that the formation of the Forest of Resentment was related to the Demon Brain. Obviously, there must be a Demon Brain under Shenyue Peak, but he didn't know how Black Star Castle managed to get a Demon Brain.
Sure enough, not long after, the infantry corps of Qingtian Fort joined them. Under the leadership of Han Shu, Tianyang and others walked with the army. Just as they were about to reach the top, the team suddenly stopped.
At the end of the mountain path, a figure appeared, one man and one sword, blocking the way.
Anyone who dares to intercept the army at this time is either a madman or an expert.
A true master!
Soon, someone recognized the other person: "It's the general of Black Star Fort, Cang Lang!"
That’s right, the interceptor was Canglang.
Cang Lang faced the army without blinking, and said slowly: "General of Qingtian Fort, please come out and fight. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
Cang Lang is one of the top fighters of Black Star Castle, and Sky Fortress naturally knows his information. If a Level 7 warrior is not restricted and uses all his strength, it is hard to say whether he can kill the main force of Sky Fortress, but it is still possible to severely damage the army.
Since the other party didn't try to kill him from the beginning, and now he is challenging the general of Skyfort, Skyfort will naturally have to respond.
Immediately, an arrogant and icy aura rose from behind the army.
The crowd surged, and the soldiers consciously retreated to both sides of the mountain road, forming a passage.
At the end of the passage, a tall figure walked calmly. The mountain breeze blew her black hair, and her dark purple long military coat swayed slightly in the wind. The general star on her shoulder was illuminated by the firelight on both sides. The female general, with her slender hand on the hilt of the sword at her waist, just walked through the passage of the crowd.
Go alone until the end.
