Chapter 310: Dawn Beast Tide
a few days later.

My eyelids started twitching again.

Taoist Wang broke free from the dual cultivation state and glanced at the lovely woman sleeping in his arms.

Although he was still interested, it was not a good idea to wake Ling Tong up to continue.

Wang Jixuan got up quietly, put on his pajamas, went to the balcony to meditate, picked up the communicator and took a look. There were several messages from Mudan on it, basically saying "everywhere is safe".

The storm is coming, but the wind is still blowing.

"If the blade beasts want to attack me, where will they start?"

"I have built the Seventy-Six Fortresses like an iron barrel. The mountain protection formation can withstand the impact of the king-level blade beasts, not to mention the three-dimensional defense line set up by the war zone."

Wang Jixuan looked at the seventh floor of the fortress in the late night.

He recalled something, used a layer of magic power to form a barrier to wrap the dormitory, and then flipped over and fell from the balcony.

Not long after, in the fortress's downward elevator, Wang Jixuan, who had changed into an ordinary security team uniform, and Mudan, who was wearing the same uniform, rushed to the lower city.

Mudan has complete control over every networked device in Fortress No. 76.

When they walked out of the elevator on the 45th floor, a shuttle bus was already waiting, taking them through the checkpoint and heading to the still bustling 46th floor.

“It feels like there are a lot fewer people.”

Wang Jixuan looked at the empty streets.

When he first came to this street, he felt depressed by the starving people crammed on both sides.

Mudan smiled and said, "Director Zhou is really working hard."

"Yes, his fort renovation plan utilized the unused Fort No. 82."

The Taoist priest felt much better.

He took Peony to visit the forty-sixth floor.

The neon signs here are still as messy as ever, and you can still see all kinds of places for entertainment.

Wang Jixuan didn't have the extra energy to care about these things.

Even if you can control your temporary depravity, what good does it do?

"Sir, shall we go for a drink?"

"No," Wang Jixuan joked, "Going to a place like this to drink can easily lead to Lingtong's misunderstanding."

"Why not call Chief Lingtong over to have a drink together?"

"Let her have a good rest. Let's go to the 49th floor to take a look."

The shuttle bus slowly descends along the central spiral road.

Wang Jixuan's spiritual sense swept over and found that the 82th and th floors were empty. The few "miners" who had not moved to Fortress No. had now become miners with fortress identity certificates.

However, the forty-ninth floor remains pretty much the same.

This place is still a gathering place for some "small workshops", and the illegal activities have been reduced by more than half, which is the result of Zhou Zhengde's hard work for half a year.

The burned wooden house in the corner has been covered by several dilapidated containers and has become the new residence of several families.

Wang Jixuan sat in the shuttle bus and stared at this side for a while.

Mudan asked, "Sir, are you still having trouble letting that criminal go?"

"Yes, a little." Wang Jixuan shook his head. "That time I realized that I was still very childish in my bones. I had been practicing in the mountains, and everything went too smoothly. I couldn't stand the slightest setback, and I didn't want to face my previous failures."

Mudan whispered, "No one can succeed all the time. Slight regrets are the norm, and complete success is accidental. This is the state of life for most people."

Wang Jixuan couldn't help but laugh: "Oh, Sister Mudan can also preach?"

"This is not a lecture, this is data analysis."

Peony complained a little sadly:

"Since you lowered my venom index, sir, I am now very careful with my words."

“Then adjust it back to 50% and see.”

Mudan's eyes sparkled with light, and then she raised her hand tenderly and stroked Wang Jixuan's forehead, saying softly, "Good baby, mommy loves you."

boom!
Mudan was kicked and flew out.

"I'm not asking you to curse at others because I'm telling you to be venomous! You should reflect on this carefully!"

Wang Jixuan drove away in the shuttle bus.

Mudan sniffed and ran behind with a wronged look on her face.

She just livens up the atmosphere.

Sir, this is considered domestic violence, hehe.

……

The plateau was quiet before dawn.

For autonomous machines, night and day do not affect their efficiency.

After all, they rely on various radar activities.

Visual automatic solutions have too many unreliable defects and can make mistakes even on roads with good road conditions, let alone in such wilderness environments.

On a newly built watchtower, a dozen soldiers, feeling somewhat sleepy, stared at the screens in front of them.

The information on the screen covers the surface information of the area.

A soldier turned his head to look out the window and complained:

"We are behind the defense line here. Let alone blade beasts, there are not even a few mosquitoes to be seen."

"Don't be careless. The blade beasts can penetrate any hole. The earth's crust has been dug into ant holes by them."

"Black Storm is so cool."

"If it weren't for this big brother who stood up, we wouldn't know now that psychics are just slaves of aliens and are called spirit slaves."

"On weekdays, these psychics... I mean the low-level psychics stationed in the fortress, they are all in a group and think they are new humans. I didn't expect that they are the dogs of the psychics."

"Dog? Just dog hair."

"You guys should stop talking. Forget about targeting the Psychic City. The Psychics on the frontline are all warriors. The two sides must be distinguished."

"Don't worry. How could a real warrior turn against a scout?"

"You are really good at moral blackmail."

A group of people laughed continuously.

A soldier suddenly shouted: "Area 442 alert!"

The watchtower suddenly became quiet, and everyone immediately displayed their professional side. Commands were quickly transmitted through the human military command network, and a constantly changing map appeared on the screen.

Soon, a group of "scavengers" walking in the wilderness appeared before them.

There was no discussion among the soldiers;
They are only responsible for summarizing information to the command chain.

Discussion, that's the generals' business.

"That's a lot of people," a soldier couldn't help but frown and said.

"441 area alarm!"

"There's also one in area 443!"

"A large number of scavengers appeared in dozens of peripheral areas at the same time!"

"Psychic reaction!"

"It's similar to the energy reaction of the blade beast crystal core!"

"what is that……"

A soldier looked at the blue arc of light appearing outside the window, and his voice trembled slightly unconsciously.

hum!
A blue arc of light streaked across the top of the watchtower. At the same time, electric arcs appeared on the instrument panel below. Wisps of black smoke emerged from the screen, and the projection screen went out instantly.

The brightly lit military camp suddenly went dark.

……

"Electromagnetic explosion?"

Wang Jixuan frowned as he listened to Mudan's report.

He had just returned to the dormitory to meditate and practice, and had some new insights, but Mudan knocked on the door and called him up.

The shuttle bus sped towards the material lift in the upper city, and Wang Jixuan had already taken the tablet handed to him by Mudan.

There were pictures on it. In the sleeping place of the Sixth Pillar, more than a dozen huge arcs of light bloomed from all directions at the same time, crossing the sky above all the military camps.

The military camp went from brightly lit to pitch black;

In the images transmitted before the radar was destroyed, human figures could be seen walking on the ground. The photos taken by drones showed that they were all ragged men and women.

Mudan said simply, "The blade beasts are beginning to attack."

"Beast God Sect psychics? So many?"

Wang Jixuan looked at the photos.

Just in the photos that have been circulated, there are thousands of "scavengers".

"There is no more useful information for the time being. The electromagnetic explosion released by the blade beast is still continuing."

Mudan quickly sorted out the fragmented information:
“Crystal nucleus reactions were detected in the bodies of those suspected humans!
"Sir! The latest satellite high-definition images!"

Mudan swiped her finger and a blurry animated image appeared on the tablet.

In the dark wilderness, human figures were running at high speed, and many of them were flying directly in the air, with obvious circles behind them, as if they were the gravity circuits supporting the blade beasts?

Dense lines of fire appeared in the direction these figures were rushing towards.

The human side's weapons began to fire continuously.

Green light curtains continued to bloom on the screen, and those figures even activated powerful shields...

"what's the situation?"

Wang Jixuan frowned and asked:

"There are only a few hundred Beast God Psychics, and most of them are dead now, right? Where did so many of them come from?"

“There is no reliable source at the moment.”

Peony said quickly:
"According to satellite imagery, there are approximately 20,000 organisms suspected to be Beast God Psychics charging forward.

"Our previous defense focus was underground, but none of the underground traps were triggered. They chose to move secretly on the ground, avoiding our conventional detection methods.

"I just received news that the outer blade beasts suddenly rioted... It's all over the battle line, the entire human camp."

Wang Jixuan leaned back in his chair;

The worry that he had been feeling recently finally died.

Blade Beast has brought out so many new things at once this time, it is likely that he is going to fight him to the death.

"Peony, come up with a backup plan."

"back up plan?"

"Well," Wang Jixuan said with a smile in his eyes, "If the Blade Beast wants to fight to the death with me, then I will definitely not be able to defeat it now, so I should make some preparations in advance."

"But sir, their current attack focus is on the sixth pillar. They probably want to recapture the sixth pillar."

"No, their goal is to get rid of me."

Wang Jixuan leaned back in his chair and looked at the constantly updated information on his tablet, and continued:

"Their goal is to attack the Pillar Blade Beasts, but in terms of priority, killing me should be higher than rescuing the Sixth Pillar.

“Because the other pillar blade beasts sensed danger.

"The dead emperor is not important, but the living emperor has a sense of crisis."

Mudan nodded slowly: "What is the backup plan?"

"so……"

Wang Jixuan quickly spoke out some of his thoughts;
Mudan listened carefully and soon began to develop a specific plan.

By the time they reached the command center on the third floor, they had stopped discussing backup plans and began focusing on the current battle.

After Wang Jixuan appeared in the command center, No. 5 jumped out from the corner.

She still looks like a yellow-haired loli.

"They started to act faster than I thought."

Number 5 asked quickly:
"Should we go over to provide support?"

"How can we provide support?" Wang Jixuan asked, "Even if you go over, the supporting blade beasts are still sleeping, and they can't be moved away."

"That's right," No. 5's little face was obviously relieved.

She thought that once the blade beasts started attacking, they would immediately rush over to fight, and then be trapped in the vast ocean woven by the blade beasts.

Dongfang Zhenghong, who was watching the big screen, turned around and explained seriously:

"Please don't worry, just watch the battle here.

“Although the Blade Beast suddenly came up with a new trick that caught us off guard, the overall battle situation is still under our control.

"When the commander-in-chief chose this uninhabited area of ​​D2 as the base for the Pillar Blade Beasts, he had already made all preparations for this place to become an important battlefield. It is a large trap.

"Our strategic goal is to use the terrain and defense advantages as much as possible to effectively kill the blade beasts!"

Wang Jixuan asked: "What is the origin of that super strong electromagnetic explosion?"

"A new type of general-level and sub-king-level blade beast."

Dongfang Zhenghong patted the technician next to him, who quickly called up several satellite images.

A strange-looking blade beast that was more than ten meters tall came into everyone's sight.

The biggest feature of this blade beast is that there is a structure similar to a tree crown on its back. Its body skeleton is relatively slender, and there is a thin membrane structure similar to wings on its back.

Dongfang Zhenghong Introduction:

“This time we detected more than a dozen new types of blade beasts that have never appeared on the front battlefield before.

“Without exception, these blade beasts all have one characteristic:
"Aiming at our weapons systems."

Five shrugged. "They evolve incredibly quickly."

Wang Jixuan asked: "What about those humans?"

"We are still analyzing it," Dongfang Zhenghong pondered for a moment, "The experts have already held a meeting, and the conclusion they came up with is... very bad."

"How bad?"

"Those are ordinary humans transformed into Beast God Psychics."

Dongfang Zhenghong sighed:

“Most of their strengths are equivalent to D-level and C-level psychics, and their strengths are distributed on the same level.

"According to the data sent back from the battlefield, these guys have crystal cores and psychic circuits in their bodies.

"If this is really the case...

"The infusion ritual for spiritual practitioners requires the death of many people. The blade beasts improved it by burying crystal cores. The blade beasts may be able to mass-produce psychics."

The atmosphere in the command room became somewhat solemn.

Number Five asked, "Can you catch a few?"

"We can't catch them for now. Their fighting methods include physical combat, releasing mental shocks, and self-destruction."

"Let's wait for the results."

Wang Jixuan said softly, sat down in the exclusive chair in the corner, and sat cross-legged in meditation.

Number Five didn't ask any more questions and sat down aside, staring at the battlefield scenes projected on the big screen.

Soon, the Buddhist temple team arrived;
Ling Tong, Shen Hai, and Chi She appeared here wearing tight protective suits;

They are all ready to attack at any time.

Instructor Black Shell was the last one to arrive, and he kept grumbling after he arrived... He was quite resentful about the commander-in-chief rejecting his application for an attack.

Due to the time zone difference, it is already dawn in the no-man's land battlefield of D2.

The strong electromagnetic explosion is still continuing;

The special drones sent by the human side have captured high-definition images.

Under the impact of those 'pseudo-spiritual slaves', the surface defenses have collapsed in many places;
Large numbers of Blade Beasts charged towards the mountain-like pillar Blade Beasts from all directions, and powerful explosions continued to be heard from underground.

"Aren't we," Zheng Shiduo asked, "going to join the war?"

"Don't be impatient, wait and see what happens."

Wang Jixuan closed his eyes and responded:
"If things go wrong later, we will move the residents of Fort 76 away and reinforce the mountain protection formation."

"Yes!"
