In the end of the world, I become an immortal alone.

Chapter 286: Give it a try!
In a heavy transport plane flying high in the sky.

"Sir! The Sixth Pillar has awakened! It is slowly climbing up from underground!"

"Oh, I see."

Wang Jixuan looked at Mudan who was very excited and asked curiously:
"What are you excited about?"

"Well," Peony blinked, "Anyway, Peony definitely doesn't want to witness the destruction of human civilization and the rise of mechanical civilization."

"Don't joke like that, especially at a time like this."

"Eh... Mainly I want to adjust the atmosphere. The atmosphere in the cabin is too depressing."

Wang Jixuan took the "tablet" handed over by Mudan, looked at the green light that almost came out of the screen, and didn't know how to comment for a moment.

The awakening of the Pillar Blade Beast was too big a fuss.

The earth shook, rifts opened up, and endless green light extended outward from the rifts. The gravity in the area affected by the green light became abnormal, and pieces of gravel and even boulders could be seen rising slowly into the air.

Wang Jixuan pinched the screen with two fingers, zooming out so that he could see a group of drones patrolling nearby.

After eighty years, humans and pillar-level Saber Beasts are about to go to war again.

These behemoths that buried the golden age are about to reveal their powerful claws.

Wang Jixuan returned the tablet to Mudan.

"How long will it take us to arrive?"

"About three hours."

Mudan pointed to the low-altitude area below her feet. There were two large unmanned carrier aircraft flying steadily, towing the fully assembled Demon-Suppressing Tower.

Simple restrictions have been activated around the Demon-Suppressing Tower, so there will be no problem with its own strength.

Mudan said, "As you said, we should go with the Demon Suppression Tower."

"Well, if there is no Demon Suppression Tower, we can't help much if we go there."

Wang Jixuan kept thinking:

"Now, we can ask them to pay a little more attention to us.

“Submit my battle plan to Lao Fu, but don’t let them have too much hope. I have never fought against a pillar-level blade beast.

"We must be careful along the way. That Garino is very cunning and might send a pterosaur to attack us. We don't have many elite forces in the rear right now.

"In addition, the movements of the Psychic City must be monitored at all times."

"Okay, sir. The Psychic City has actually gathered thousands of psychics, but I am pessimistic about their ability to deploy them. If they are to appear on the battlefield, they should come to take advantage, not to shed blood and sacrifice themselves."

Mudan changed the subject:
"Mudan wants to apply for permission to use a few satellites. Can I apply in the name of the commander?"

"Go ahead, you can go for it this time."

Wang Jixuan took a few glances at Mudan's new outfit.

She changed into a dark green military uniform, slightly loose trousers, and a top full of pockets. She looked somewhat heroic, but certainly not as beautiful as when she wore slim-fitting full-coverage armor.

"Sir, what's wrong?"

Peony put her hands behind her back pretentiously:

"Doesn't he look very capable as an officer?"

"Well, a little bit," the Taoist priest smiled and shook his head, "Why do I feel that your body data is a little different?"

"This is your illusion, I didn't adjust it."

"Don't worry too much about appearance. The most important thing about a spirit is its soul," Wang Jixuan said seriously. "Okay, I'll take a break first, gather my strength, and prepare for the battle."

"Sir, don't worry, Mudan will be on guard."

Mudan responded with a smile and watched Wang Jixuan meditate.

She turned around and looked around the cabin.

The stone tablet number 5 was lying on the side, with a faint light on it;

Not far away, the Buddhist temple team was looking at the scenery or meditating. Because they were following their teacher Wang, they were not nervous even when facing a pillar-level blade beast.

Zheng Shiduo was unusually serious today. He sat there in deep thought, probably about something related to the sudden appearance of his biological father.

Mudan thought about it and slowly walked towards Gao Huating who was obviously very nervous in the corner.

The commander did not take Shen Qionglin to the front line, but instead took Gao Huating with him. This was actually a bit beyond Mudan's expectations.

"Can I sit here?"

"of course can!"

Gao Huating moved towards the porthole and Mudan sat down gracefully.

She secretly modified her body data back to factory settings, and took the initiative to find some relaxing topics to soothe this 'young' soul who was stepping onto the battlefield for the first time.

Sitting not far in the front, Wu Man slid his finger across the projection screen, observing the scene before the sixth pillar was about to appear.

The same picture has been presented to the leaders of various forces in human society.

……

The City of Psi-Energy, inside the Sphere of Silence, the residence of the Six Elders.

Mr. Tai Shenggang sat quietly behind his desk, frowning as he looked at the picture on the huge projection screen in front of him.

The earth was shaking, the green light column almost rushed into the universe, and the spiritual energy in the air gathered towards the ground at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This is the awakening of the Pillar Saber Beast.

Tai Shenggang was silent, recalling in silence.

Recalling how he changed from a young man full of vigor and ambition to make great achievements in the field of scientific research to the horrible appearance he has now.

It's a blade beast.

It's a blade beast.

Tai Shenggang will never forget the feeling of despair and powerlessness in his heart when he stood helplessly on the roof of a building, staring at the dark cloud in the sky with his dry and somewhat stinging eyes, and the giant monster walking "slowly" and "bullishly" under the dark cloud.

In despair, he was pulled onto a helicopter by his own men, and watched through the camera as the research center where he had worked for half his life was easily crushed by the giant beast...

Are these humans finally going to feel real fear now?

Those who claim to be righteous, shout for freedom, and think that they can save human civilization with just their passion should also think about how to rely on the power of spiritual practitioners...

An old man in a bathrobe, holding a drink, passed behind Tai Shenggang's desk.

The old man was attracted by the scene here and came over with a smile.

"Aren't you out yet?"

"Well," Tai Shenggang said in a slightly hoarse voice without turning his head, "Fu Jian and the others are already in this area."

"Great! I hope this pillar can crush Fu Jian and his mechanical minions!"

The old man took a sip of his drink, carefully observed the scene, then shook his head and commented in a professional manner:

“They should waste a batch of nukes!
"If Fu Jian can't hold on any longer, will he let us out? Lao Tai, do you think this is likely?"

"It's unlikely," Tai Shenggang said slowly, "If Fu Jian was going to die, he would just decisively press the nuclear bomb button and take the six of us with him."

"Damn it! Then I'll quickly put on my protective suit! Why didn't you remind me!"

"Because Fu Jian shouldn't reach the end of his rope."

Tai Shenggang raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, whispering:

"In addition to listening to the teachings of the three adults, can you guys regain some of your intelligence and carefully analyze the current situation?
"If I hadn't been holding on, no one would have come here, and we would have been sidelined by those ambitious young people!"

The old man laughed, "The more capable you are, the more work you should do... This kind of thing is really too boring. We have been trapped here for more than 50 years. If we don't find something fun to do, we will definitely go crazy."

He waved to the side, and a chair flew over and landed smoothly behind him.

The old man sat down calmly and stared at the projection screen for a long time. The old man muttered quietly: "How long can this pillar be active?"

"Probably three or four days."

Tai Shenggang tapped the table with his fingers:

“I have consulted the three lords. This time, the blade beasts used sacrifice to counter the power of the sleep circuit. The sleep circuit is still functioning, and this circuit draws the power of the pillar blade beasts themselves.

“The good news is that when this Pillar Blade Beast falls asleep again, he will wake up later than the other Pillar Blade Beasts.

"There's some bad news, do you want to hear it?"

"tell me the story?"

Tai Shenggang sneered: "If the Sixth Pillar can grab the core circuit of the fourth spiritual practitioner this time and destroy this circuit, all the pillars will wake up in advance, and we will face complete destruction."

"Don't be so pessimistic," the old man said with a smile, "the three adults can take us away, right?"

"These three adults can't protect themselves either! You idiot! Are E. coli growing in the grooves of the cerebral cortex? "

Tai Shenggang cursed in his heart but didn't say it out loud because the three adults in the underground could monitor their every move at any time.

Tai Shenggang said patiently: "What I mean is, if Fu Jian really can't hold on, we have to put all the strength we have prepared into it, and try to delay this sixth pillar as much as possible until it falls asleep again."

"Why?" The old man was puzzled. "You want to help Fu Jian? Isn't it good to let them fight each other? This is the instruction of the three adults. It was decided unanimously by the six of us in a meeting."

"I'm not helping Fu Jian...Okay, let's not talk about this topic anymore!"

Tai Shenggang waved his hand a little irritably, snatched the drink from the old man next to him, tilted his head back and took a big gulp.

He frowned and asked, "You added lemon and chili to the milk again?"

"My taste buds need to be stimulated... and... this isn't milk, it's a drug-stimulated man's... wooo!"

Tai Shenggang stuffed the cup into the mouth of the old man next to him, turned his head and spat a few times.

He shook his head and continued to observe the battle situation on the front line.

The old man chuckled and didn't take it seriously. He straightened his bathrobe and sat back down. His unfocused old eyes gradually regained some energy.

"Old Tai, are you eager to go outside?"

"Ah."

“Is there a chance this time?”

"No."

"That's too bad," the old man said with regret, "Then let the Pillar Blade Beast kill more of Fu Jian's mechanical cubs. I really want to see Fu Jian's sad face."

Tai Shenggang had no interest in continuing the conversation.

Behind the railing on the second floor at the back, two old men were holding the railing and looking down.

They were talking and laughing, with some anticipation in their eyes.

As long as the blade beasts are strong enough, they will have more say in negotiations with Fu Jian, and human society will become dependent on them again.

"Will Fu Jian face death threats? Should we wear protective clothing?"

An old man asked worriedly.

Tai Shenggang was too lazy to answer.

……

Two hours later.

Three hundred kilometers away from the awakening area of ​​the sixth pillar, the human military's front-line No. 2 logistics transfer point.

In front of the window on one side of the tower, several tower dispatchers stared with wide eyes at the more than 50-meter-high black ancient tower slowly falling from the sky.

One side of this temporary airport has been placed under martial law, and a large number of high-level mechanical bodies are patrolling everywhere, apparently to protect this ancient tower.

After the ancient tower was stabilized, two large transport planes landed on the left and right, and the supply vehicles that had been waiting for a long time moved forward to replenish energy and inspect the aircraft.

Wang Jixuan looked out the window at the airport, watching the busy figures, feeling the restlessness of spiritual energy from all directions and the low roar coming from the distant wind, and gradually there was a bit more fighting spirit in his eyes.

A good night's sleep before the battle really helps;
His thoughts are now becoming more active, and his communication with the dragon python spirit has become much smoother.

The several storage instruments he carried with him had been checked twice.

After this period of preparation, both he and the war puppet are now at the peak of their combat power at the current stage.

Next, it’s time to give it a try.

"It's right in front."

Number Five's clear voice was still as calm as ever.

She had fought against pillar-level blade beasts many times. At her peak, she had killed three or four pillar-level blade beasts. However, now, her strength was less than 30% of what it was at her peak. Facing a pillar-level blade beast alone... she could easily be taken as prey.

Wang Jixuan asked: "How strong is the newly awakened pillar blade beast?"

"If the pillar blade beasts don't have fatal injuries, their combat power won't be affected too much, and they are basically at their peak."

A brief introduction to No. 5:
“A few things to note… Let me think…

"First, don't use tactics like drilling holes in the ground just because it's huge. We have tried this before, and once you enter, you will be attacked by hundreds of king-level crystal core energies.

“Secondly, when it releases a mental shock, you must avoid the main shock zone. Its mental shock can injure me at my peak, and it will also form a strange space-time distortion zone. Try not to get close to it.

"Also, it will release a wave that interferes with your soul."

"Disturbing souls?"

"Well, I've been disturbed before. I heard countless people howling in my ears. It was so annoying."

Number Five shrugged:

“That’s basically it, I’ll give you a more detailed explanation when you see it.

“I can sense that it is currently in the shallow layer and has not yet fully risen. It should be connecting and mobilizing all the blade beasts nearby.

"Ah, and the most important point... The pillar blade beasts have the ability to temporarily evolve the blade beasts. The closer to the pillar blade beasts, the stronger the general-level, sub-king-level, and even king-level blade beasts will be. The lower the level, the more obvious the improvement.

"This is the perfect war machine for the God of War Council."

Wang Jixuan: ...

It seemed that this was more difficult than he thought.

It is not an easy task to get the Demon Suppression Tower close to the pillar-level blade beast.

In other words, he cannot dominate this war, he is a participant in the war and needs the human military to open a way forward for him before he can try to seal this thing with the Demon Suppression Tower.

Whether it can be sealed and what the effect of the seal will be are still unknown.

Now, every application he sent out, or even every word he said, could cost the human camp a huge amount of resources and cause a huge loss of elite troops...

This pressure made the Taoist priest feel a little uncomfortable, but he also knew that he had to hold on.

'This kind of worldly tempering of the heart at this moment seems to be more exciting than the tempering of the heart in the calamity of love.'

"Sir!"

Peony said quickly:
"The commander-in-chief has ordered that our unit will be in reserve in the rear and will not participate in the front-line attack for the time being. All members of our unit are not allowed to leave the transport plane and must observe the enemy's offensive first before making a decision.

"The commander-in-chief's personal note - if necessary, we can use space to buy time. Everything is for the purpose of bringing final victory to mankind!"

"Oh, I see."

Wang Jixuan agreed in a deep voice.

Three hundred kilometers... is still too far...

"Mudan, help me find Lao Fu's location."
