The holiday is over.
Feimei provided the Night Walkers with new chariots and additional soldiers, and dispatched two storm teams, including Xiao Guang, to join the exploration.
The fully staffed team gathered at base vehicle No. 4, received supplies, and prepared to start work.
Tianyang unlocks the Galaxy Team’s new light tank - the Hurricane!
This is a regular configuration vehicle of the Storm Army. Although it does not have a jet acceleration device like the Falcon tank, the speed of the "Hurricane" is also amazing, enough for exploration missions.
In terms of firepower, the Hurricane tank is equipped with a double-barreled star element cannon and high-speed star element machine gun platforms on both sides.
The power of the cannon is slightly inferior to that of the heavy artillery, but the shooting interval is much shorter, and because it is a double-barreled weapon, it can fire continuously. When fire suppression is needed, it is actually more effective than heavy artillery.
As for the high-speed star machine gun platform, it is more flexible and is managed by the system of the tank, without manual operation, freeing your hands. Its power is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it has a fast firing rate and can quickly destroy small units.
When Tianyang got into the new tank, he saw Sean and his team members were enthusiastically studying the various functions of the "Hurricane" tank. When they saw Tianyang, the team members greeted him loudly.
Tianyang smiled and nodded, then sat down in his seat and looked out the window.
After Xun's "treatment", he has recovered a lot, at least he no longer feels weak. But he still needs time to adjust, and he can't return to his original state all at once.
After the No. 4 base vehicle was restocked with supplies, Liang Sen's voice was heard on the public channel broadcast: "Everything is ready, then we will set off. Come on, the finish line is just around the corner!"
Tianyang knew that Liang Sen was not just talking nonsense, it was actually true. According to the route map provided by Yexing, the end of the expedition was coming soon.
But he didn't feel excited at all, only deep worry.
Where will the expedition end? Will it really lead to the grave
Tiebi brought Kuang Ge and Xue Yan with him, using them as materials, as if to provide "skins" for some existence in the "grave".
Dong Fang was in the car. He had been eyeing the "grave" 17 years ago, and now he still hasn't given up and still wants to gain the power in the "grave".
As for the church, they were also heading for the 'grave'. Apart from a conflict that occurred before, they behaved themselves well during the rest of the journey.
But once they arrive at the 'tomb', will the church still be so obedient? Of course not. Although there are not many people coming this time, there are many Silver Crown Knights, all of whom are colonel-level combat power.
Add to that Gu Yun, who had already reached level 6 17 years ago. If the church really wants to do something, Feimei will find it difficult to stop them.
All of this will erupt when it reaches the end. By then, will the Storm Army still be able to control the situation
Tianyang raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows.
Although he had already let Feng Bao take over Xue Yan, Dong Fang had said yesterday that Yuan Shu was also determined to get the "tomb". Fei Mei was Yuan Shu's adopted daughter. If Yuan Shu came forward, would Fei Mei listen to him
Tian Yang was not sure about this. The remote control of Xue Yan's emergency brake was on him. After Xun finished the treatment, Tian Yang had thought about this problem and considered more than once whether to use this remote control to end Xue Yan's emergency brake.
Yan's life to prevent her from being used as a 'shell'.
But Tianyang thought of one thing, even without Xue Yan, there are plenty of "materials" in the expeditionary army that are capable of being the skin. If Yuan Shu is determined to do this, it doesn't matter whether Xue Yan is dead or alive.
The key is whether the end of the expedition points to the 'grave'. At the same time, Tianyang still has a hope.
I hope Su Lie is still alive and guarding the tomb. In this way, maybe he can join forces with that man to keep the army out of the tomb.
"What a crazy idea." Tianyang shook his head and said softly.
Qilong, who was not far away, heard it but couldn't hear it clearly, so he asked, "Captain, what did you say?"
"Nothing..." Tianyang looked back at his teammates, wondering what he should do to prevent these people, Night Walker and Xun, from being involved.
This will be a headache.
A few days later, Feimei received a video message in the command room of Base Vehicle No. 1.
Sent from the Skyfort.
Because the expeditionary force went too deep into the reverse world, it was no longer able to achieve real-time communication with the fortress and could only communicate through one-way information transmission.
Furthermore, the information transmitted is delayed.
After the information was decrypted, it was displayed on the big screen in the command room. Yuan Shu, the lord of Qingtian Castle, had his hands behind his back and his back to the camera.
As if he heard someone remind him, he turned around, and then the camera zoomed in, allowing Yuan Shu's serious face to be fully displayed on the screen.
"What I'm going to say next is top secret, Feimei. I don't want anyone else to hear it except you."
Feimei seemed to have guessed what Yuan Shu was going to say, her eyebrows furrowed, and then she said coldly: "You guys go out first."
She continued playing the video only after everyone in the command room had left.
On the screen, Yuan Shu nodded, as if he knew Feimei was doing what he said, and continued: "Wei Chengzhou has already reported to me, Feimei, I know you are full of questions now. But before I answer those questions, I need you to know that everything I do is for the fortress!"
"I think you haven't forgotten that 17 years ago, the church came with great force and ignored our feelings. It used a tough attitude to exclude our fortress and almost monopolized the 127th Reverse Realm."
"The church claimed that this was to defeat the Black King. We don't know if this is true. What we do know is that the church army marched straight in, alarming and driving away a large number of Black people."
"This caused the disaster that followed. The black people rushed directly to the base behind the Clave Gate. In order to prevent the black people from attacking the Clave Gate, we had to use all our resources and invested a lot of manpower and material resources to barely keep the gate intact."
“But what did we pay for it?”
"We consumed nearly ten years' worth of strategic materials, and we lost more than ten thousand soldiers in the battle. Your brother died in that disaster."
Yuan Shu sighed, looking much older all of a sudden: "17 years, a full 17 years. I have never forgotten this humiliation. Whenever I close my eyes, I will think of the souls who died in front of my door."
"For the past 17 years, I have been constantly thinking about how to strengthen our fortress. I know that only when our Skyfortress becomes stronger will we not be bullied. Otherwise, the disaster 17 years ago will happen again one day."
"I fought with fear and tried every possible means, and finally in the past two years, we have made our dream of soaring into the sky come true. But it's not enough. We can't fly high enough and are easily shot down by hunters."
"Our wings are not strong enough. A bigger storm may break our wings."
"I know that providing a body for an 'alien god' is a dangerous thing. But we have seen more than once in history that when an alien god is welcomed, great rewards can also be gained."
"You have read world history, you should know that the Church of the Lord of War did the same thing. No, they were even worse. They allowed the alien god to cross the Klav Gate, thus triggering the Church War."
"You can rest assured. Although I want to gain something from EsGod, I have no intention of letting EsGod cross the Krav Gate. That 'material' is the key!"
"Wei Chengzhou and his team have conducted many experiments at the Beidou base. The material has been modified and modified to a certain extent. It will become a 'prison' to imprison EsGod. So you see, we will use safe means to obtain the power of EsGod, and make our Skyfortress a super fortress and the leader of the East Continent!"
"When that day comes, no one will dare to bully us anymore, no one will be sacrificed anymore, we will eliminate poverty and we will improve people's living standards."
"By that time, even the common people can live a peaceful life. So Feimei, please hand Xue Yan over to Wei Chengzhou. You will definitely understand me, right?"
The video ends here.
Feimei sat on the chair, as if she had turned into a stone sculpture. She didn't say a word, and she didn't even blink.
After a long while, she sighed and said, "Godfather, so this is what you think..."
Feimei closed her eyes as if she fell asleep. After a while, she opened her eyes again.
His eyes were clear, as if he had already made a decision.
... ... .
"The end of the expedition is ahead."
In Liang Sen's chariot, a holographic map appeared in the eyes of Tianyang and others. It can be seen from the map that this is a barren area.
The huge fault created a rift valley with almost no visible edge. There was no trace of any buildings, not even any black people. It was a desolate land with a desolate atmosphere. It was unknown how long it had existed in the darkness.
Judging from the holographic map alone, Tian Yang could not see any trace of the "grave". Of course, he did not know what the "grave" looked like specifically, so he was actually unsure about this judgment.
"There's nothing here, and we came all the way here?" Lida had already started complaining. "Are the higher-ups crazy? Wasting so much manpower and resources just to come to this godforsaken place?"
Liang Sen reminded her awkwardly: "Lida, you are a lady."
Rita stood up and said, "What's wrong with a lady? A lady needs to eat, drink, defecate and urinate as well. Can't a lady complain or swear?"
Liang Sen chuckled twice, accepting his failure in this regard, and turned to look at the others and said: "Expedition is an adventure in the first place. Regardless of whether there is any gain or not, it will help us explore the adverse world and understand this world better."
"But now that we have reached the end, we can't just go back like this. We have to take a look around. So, take a break. In 20 minutes, we will go take a look at this desolate land."
He pointed toward the holomap.
