"What happened just now?"
On the city wall, Yafidi looked at the sky to the south with a solemn expression. Just now there was an extremely dazzling flash in the sky over there, so that the world was only black and white. That was obviously caused by an extremely strong energy collision, and in fact, the northward blowing airflow also proved this point.
In the wind blowing from the south, Yafidi felt the destructive energy. If that collision were to fall in the Rock City, probably more than half of the buildings in the city would cease to exist. Yafidi only hoped that it wasn't the enemy's secret weapon, otherwise the battle would be much harder to fight.
In fact, this war has been very difficult.
Under the non-stop attack of the guard army, gaps have appeared in the Wall of Sighs, and two-thirds of the fortifications have been pulled out. Now under the White Rock City, several legion commanders took turns to fight. Driving the knights of the round table and mech troops to resist the attack of the guards. The Atlanteans also joined the war, and the giants headed by Franklin were active on the front line of the battlefield. Their flexibility and combat power were much higher than ordinary mechs, making the defense of the Pope's Hall vulnerable. withstood the impact.
But even so, the defense line of the Pope's Hall shrank again and again, constantly retreating. The army of guards rushing forward and succeeding, tested the ultimate endurance of the defense line.
There was a roar on the battlefield, like thunder on the ground. Four spars were lifted from Franklin's body, and his body almost swelled up. The hair on the top of the head stood up, and the man rushed out from behind the bunker like a tank. The giant slammed into the guards, and there were circles of extremely weak force fields scattered outside the body. As soon as the guards touched these force fields, they were bounced by invisible forces, and their bodies were already distorted and deformed in mid-air.
Franklin held a short-handled warhammer in each hand, and the body of the hammer was covered with complicated dark patterns. The energy flame illuminated these dark lines one by one, and with the two warhammers waving, Franklin rushed for a while, knocking over a large number of guards. Behind him, Sam, Randall, Signy and other Atlanteans followed closely behind. The giants formed an assault team and followed Franklin to charge through the enemy army, temporarily breaking the pressure on the position and retreating to the bunker. The mechs and soldiers stepped forward to prevent the guards from pursuing, and Franklin and others bought precious rest time.
Five minutes later, Franklin went into battle again with a double hammer, but this time he did not take the initiative to attack, but just defended his position. The giant was covered in blood, the green blood of the guards and his own blood. Even though the strength of his body was already as hard as fine steel, he was still torn apart by sharp claws and bone spurs in the face of a large number of guards.
Of course, for Franklin, it was just a negligible injury. What really threatened him was that the energy consumption was too fast, and the energy absorbed from the space could not offset the energy consumption at all.
After smashing several guards with another hammer, Franklin took a breath. A strange roar was caught in the ear, the giant raised his head, and the figure of a giant beast Nanzhi was reflected in his eyes.
Star Destroyer!
"Damn it, the Star Destroyer took the initiative to attack!" Franklin yelled at the people behind: "Randor, is there a way to shoot it down?"
The giant named Randor has the ability of the lightning system, but the Star Destroyer is hundreds of kilometers away. It is because of its huge size that it cannot be seen at all on the battlefield. The giant shrugged and shook his head: "This is too embarrassing, Your Highness."
Franklin frowned, and shouted at Black Wing on the wall: "Let the flying mecha attack that big guy, hurry up. If you give it a chance to charge up and attack, we're all screwed!"
Black Wing immediately gave the order to attack, just as a squadron of Griffin Riders and a squadron of Sky Angels were preparing to go. Yuantian's Star Destroyer suddenly opened his body cavity, and countless black spots were dense like rain. Driven by the jet stream of the cavity, these black spots quickly spanned a distance of tens of kilometers and fell towards the ground.
"Damn it, it's a guard again! What's going on..." Franklin was almost mad: "Could it be that there are two Star Destroyers?"
The faces of the other Atlanteans all changed suddenly. If what Franklin said was true, then they would have to face twice as many guards, a black tide approaching 500,000 in number!
"Biya, wait for me here." Patting Star Destroyer on the head, Zero stood up.
Biya has released the guards in it, and these things will be thrown into the battlefield quickly after hatching. The Bia have reset their orders to attack their own kind instead. However, it will take some time for the guards to reach the battlefield. At least during this time, Zero does not want Rock City to fall.
The space energy stones turned up one by one, Zero opened his arms and jumped towards the void, and the person fell rapidly. Suddenly the figure disappeared, and when it reappeared, it was several kilometers away. After advancing to the twelfth level, the controllable distance of the space jump has also reached the range of ten kilometers. In this way, Zero can quickly approach the battlefield with a long point jump. Even though they were hundreds of kilometers away from the battlefield under the Rock City, to Zero, it was only ten space jumps.
His figure flickered continuously, and each flicker spanned a distance of nearly ten kilometers. Falling into Franklin's perception, he only knew that a tyrannical aura was looming, approaching the battlefield at an extremely fast speed. Franklin gripped the warhammer tightly, feeling extremely nervous. This aura is so powerful that even Gaia of that day is far behind.
Is it the new knight of Proseus
When this thought floated up, Franklin suddenly felt a storm of energy appearing on the battlefield. In the dense camp of guards, a blue-purple light ball suddenly appeared. The light ball was like a black hole, and it produced a huge suction force and pulled the surrounding guards over. This ball of light is only as big as a blue ball, but the suction it can generate is astonishingly large.
Once the guard attached the ball of light, the nail leaves on his body shattered first, and then the flesh and internal organs were sucked into the ball of light. In the end, the guard exploded into a blood mist, not even a drop of blood fell to the ground, and all was sucked into the ball of light . The flesh and blood of guards continued to fill the ball of light, but the ball of light had no intention of stopping like a bottomless pit. When hundreds of guards disappeared, the ball of light began to shrink.
The light sphere shrinks very quickly, but in the blink of an eye it is only the size of a ping pong ball. When the sphere shrank to the size of the eye of a needle, even though the artillery on the battlefield kept roaring, no matter the guards or humans, they could hear the sound of something breaking. A circle of smoky blue-purple ripples shot out from the almost invisible tiny sphere, and spread into the space of nearly a kilometer square.
The circle of ripples spread out like a disk, and at this moment, there were purple-black cracks all over the disk. With a crisp sound, the disk shattered into thousands of pieces. The scenery, including the countless guards covered by the disc, suddenly turned into countless pieces of broken light. The light sheet drifted, rolled, and spread around. Finally, the sheets of light exploded and poured out from them, it turned out to be clusters of energy storms!
Thousands of energy storms explode together, and the explosive power is contained within a kilometer square, and the energy storms collide with each other, further increasing the destructive power. So in the eyes of the defenders of Panshi City, after a circle of blue-purple ripples spread at the center of the guards, several beams of light transformed by energy storms shot up into the sky. In an instant, tens of thousands of light beams merged into a thick beam of light, roaring and rushing up to the sky.
Dark cracks appeared on the surface of the beam of light, and finally a flame with a temperature of nearly 10,000 degrees burst out from the beam of light! No creature could survive under the 10,000-degree high-temperature flames. Under such high heat, the guards melted away in the flames without even leaving a wreck.
After the eruption of the flame lasted for more than ten seconds, it finally turned into thick black and red smoke. Amidst the billowing smoke, there are still streaks of jet-black electric current piercing through the air, leaving scorching marks in the air. The area within nearly one kilometer square became a scorched area, and tens of thousands of guards disappeared in an instant, and a huge gap appeared in the black wave. Even with the number of guards, this gap cannot be filled in a moment.
There was a slight distortion in the space over there, the energy became extremely chaotic, and several strips of light of different colors even appeared. Those seemingly harmless bands of light are actually dimensional turbulence, and they will easily shred any approaching matter until they are completely neutralized by the energy of space and disappear.
This is the damage caused by the space burst, and it is still an incomplete version after weakening. Zero was stunned, thinking that he had pushed people away, but neither Douglas nor Oglok had done their best that day, otherwise the Star Destroyer would not have appeared at all, and the two of them would be enough to turn Eternal Night City into what it is now.
But this time, Zero was wrong. Everyone's ability has a certain emphasis. In the case of Douglas, for example, he leans towards pure power. Since Zero developed the ability to jump in space, the development of his ability began to focus on special abilities such as space. Therefore, the same is the twelfth level, and the dimensional turbulence squeezes the space channel to form a big explosion of energy. The destructive power caused by it is by no means comparable to that of a pure powerhouse like Douglas.
It's just that the moon has its waxing and waning, and ability users are no exception. Regardless of Zero or Douglas, their abilities will have strengths and weaknesses. Just like the space burst, although its power is astonishing, its consumption is equally astonishing. At this moment, just using the reduced version of Space Burst, Zero's energy level has dropped by one-third.
But in terms of efficiency, space burst is undoubtedly a big killer on the battlefield, especially when facing dense enemy forces, it is simply a life harvester.
The life breath of the guard suddenly lost a large area, and the contrast before and after shocked Franklin. It was this moment of absence, when the giant suddenly felt a pat on the back. Franklin turned around and swung the hammer instinctively. The hammer came down with an invisible force, but it was easily blocked by one hand. Franklin felt that his strength was absorbed instantly, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
Then, a familiar voice sounded from under the hammer: "Franklin, it's a bit too grand to greet an old friend like this."
Franklin moved the hammer away, and Zero's face came into view. The giant Yizheng then happily said: "Zero, when did you come here?"
"Just when you were about to smash me flat with a hammer."
The two looked at each other and smiled, then hugged each other heavily. Of course, considering Franklin's size, Zero could only hug him with one arm.
After letting go of Zero, Franklin smiled wryly and said, "It's a pity you came at an untimely time."
"On the contrary, I feel that I finally came in time. Look, the reinforcements I brought have arrived." Zero smiled.
Franklin could see that the battlefield remained the same. Although tens of thousands of guards were taken away by Zero One Space Burst, the gap was soon filled, and Franklin could not see the slightest change. But there was a whisper on the city wall, with surprise and a hint of surprise in the voice. Franklin immediately shouted: "Black Wing, what happened?"
"To be honest, I don't know too well." Black Wing's voice sounded directly in Franklin's mind: "If I read correctly, it should be called cannibalism. Yes, from behind those black monsters came another Another batch of the same monsters came out, but they fought on their own."
In fact, Black Wing's description was not correct. The guards did not kill each other, but Akmon's guards were massacred one-sidedly. The guards didn't set the order to kill the same kind at all, so they didn't defend against the kills from the Biya guards at all. Biya's guards easily strangled their own kind, and the coldness and efficiency of biological weapons were fully reflected at this moment.
The army in the Pope's Hall is useless instead, they no longer need to attack, they just need to hold their positions. As for the work of killing the enemy, it will be done by the same kind of guards who came from the rear.
Even so, the fighting only ended in the afternoon. When the last guard of Akmon fell, he stood on the high wall and looked down. The battlefield within a few kilometers outside the Rock City was full of guards' corpses. It would take a lot of time just to deal with these corpses, but the successful preservation of Panshi City still made the knights rejoice. After completing their mission, Biya's guards receded like a tide. According to Zero's previous request, these guards would always withdraw from the mainland, enter the ocean, and finally be buried in the deep sea.
Based on the fact that Proseus can directly reset the authority of the guard order, Zero does not want to pull this batch of guns to the Eastern Continent. Therefore, after completing the task, these biological weapons must be destroyed.
The battlefield was cleaned by soldiers, and Zero was carried by Franklin and others to the municipal building that served as the command post. What used to be the conference hall has been cleared for use as a command center, which is also Blackwing's office. Zero walked in with these old friends, Hei Yi smiled and said nothing, while Yafidi and the others kept asking Zero.
They were very surprised and curious about Zero being able to arrive in time, and the extremely strong combat power he showed, and even controlling a Star Destroyer. Zero couldn't answer so many questions at the same time, so he could only raise his hand to silence a few people, then looked at Franklin and said, "Gentlemen, the war has begun."
"Is Proseus still out of prison?" Franklin lowered his voice, "Tell me where it is, Zero!"
"Don't worry, Franklin, you are indispensable in this battle." Lingcai looked at Black Wing: "And I hope that the Pope's Hall can also participate in the battle."
Hei Yi spread his hands and said: "I personally agree with it, but this matter must be approved by His Royal Highness Paul."
"Of course, I will go to see His Royal Highness Paul, after all, I have sent some things to him."
Hei Yi nodded and said, "He must also want to see you very much now."
Zero stayed in Rock City for one night, and took Star Destroyer Biya to Rome City the next day. Black Wing passed the news back to the Pope's Hall early, and when Ling arrived in Rome, he was welcomed by the Pope's Hall.
"I knew I'd see you soon, friend." Paul, dressed in Chinese robes and holding the Pope's staff, greeted him personally, hugged Zero and whispered in his ear: "I've heard about Rock City. Thank you for reaching out to us again."
Zero patted him lightly and said, "Sure, if I remember correctly, I still have the title of Grand Duke of Peace on me."
The two laughed and separated. Paul invited Zero to get on the car again. To Zero's surprise, what was behind Paul was not a car, but a carriage. The carriage is not big, just two people side by side. Sitting in the carriage, Zero looked at Paul, who shrugged and said, "I also want to take a car, but this is an extraordinary period, and the streets in our city of Rome are too narrow now."
The carriage headed towards the direction of the Pope's Hall. Looking along the way, Ling understood what Paul meant. It was Paul who transferred all the civilians to the city of Rome, and now this mountain city is overcrowded. People crowded the streets, and even countless temporary tents were set up in the square in front of the Pope's Hall.
"You don't know, you did me a big favor this time, Zero." Paul smiled bitterly: "Look at these people outside, their daily food alone is a huge expense. If the war continues for a while, I have to Bankruptcy is out of the question."
Ling smiled, and the young pope in front of him still spoke so exaggeratedly.
In the pope's hall, Paul held a meeting, and the topic of the meeting was whether to participate in Proseus' war or not. In the end, with Zero's narration and Paul's support, the Pope's Hall finally decided to join the war, so that the army in Rock City did not have to withdraw. As for how to go to the Eastern Continent, Zero will take over the job. Although the warships in the city of Rome are only used for sailing in the inner bay, as long as they cooperate with some sea beasts in Bellafar, they are enough to sail out to the open sea.
This point was discussed with Bellafar when Zero went to the Western Continent. Now that Zero has solved the most troublesome problem of sailing in the open sea, the Pope's Hall has nothing to shirk. Paul immediately issued a new order to Black Wing in the name of the Pope's Hall.
For this reason, almost all the ships in the Western Continent had to be requisitioned. As for the port for the expedition, it was finally set in the port city of Fasero!
After the meeting, Zero pulled Paul aside and said softly, "I have something to ask you."
"What are you talking about?" Paul said briskly.
"I want you to help me find Cinderella, I want to meet her."
When Paul heard this, he let out a chuckle: "It's my fault, Zero. I forgot to tell you that Cinderella is in Rome."
Zero's eyes lit up.
