Mobile Shelter
Chapter 258 The Beginning of the War
Even after the restrictions imposed by the original will of Blue Star were lifted, Dong Qi did not want to stay here any longer.
Although Lanxing is not Dong Qi's real hometown, it can be considered his second hometown.
Over the next month, after gaining contribution points, Dong Qi did not rush to raise his military rank, but instead exchanged them for blueprints for four types of mechanical creations.
After exchanging for the blueprints for these mechanical creations, Dong Qi looked at the few remaining metal materials in the Hundred Refinement Furnace and simply manufactured one hundred scythe-wielding mechanical wolves.
The reason for manufacturing so many mechanical wolves at once was not to use them to hunt White Walkers, but to have them finish off the White Walkers after the laser cannons had swept through the area.
During their time at the forward fortress, not only Dong Qi, but also other transmigrators who had just arrived, were inquiring about when the White Walker invasion war would begin.
However, according to the information they gathered, the White Walker army's invasions were irregular, but the longest rest period for the forward fortresses did not exceed three years. Simply put, they would inevitably encounter an invasion by the White Walker army within three years.
However, what Dong Qi and the others did not know was that the three years mentioned by those people were calculated from the end of the last White Walker War, not from the time they traveled to this world.
Therefore, just as many transmigrators who had just arrived were beginning to relax due to the living environment, a loud rallying cry sounded at the forward fortress, indicating that a patrol had discovered the vanguard of the White Walker army.
"The army of White Walkers has appeared. Attention all combat personnel in the fortress. Attention all combat personnel. The army of White Walkers has appeared."
The north gate is now open. All personnel not on the city walls are to exit through the north gate within one hour to intercept the White Walker army. They must return through the south gate.
Starting today, the daily cap on contribution points gained from killing White Walkers will be removed.
Starting today, the daily cap on contribution points gained from killing White Walkers will be removed.
Starting today, the daily cap on contribution points gained from killing White Walkers has been removed.
It seems that the things mentioned above are not important. What is truly important is that the daily cap on contribution points gained from killing White Walkers has been removed.
When Dong Qi walked quickly to the north gate, he found many people riding in different vehicles, rapidly leaving the forward fortress and heading to the front-line battlefield.
Dong Qi originally planned to wait here for a while to see if he could run into any acquaintances. It was his first time participating in such a war, and Dong Qi didn't know what to do for a moment.
But after waiting for a long time, seeing that the North Gate was about to close, Dong Qi had no choice but to rush to the front line alone.
After leaving the fortress on foot, Dong Qi immediately summoned his Starfire Flying Boat from his sea of consciousness.
At this point, the Starfire Flying Boat was no longer as small as its original vehicle.
Therefore, the Starfire Flying Boat has already attracted the attention of many people around it even though it has only just made its debut.
Dong Qi didn't seem to care much about the stares he received from those around him.
After taking his seat in the pilot's seat of the Starfire Flying Boat, Dong Qi immediately took control of the boat and headed north at top speed.
Those around saw the spark disappear from their sight in a moment, and everyone's face showed a look of shock.
After a while, the first person to regain consciousness, while waking up his companion, asked his colleague, "Do you know where that guy came from? Logically speaking, such a large floating vehicle should be a very obvious identifier and should be easy to spot."
Hearing his companion's question, the man shook his head and calmed down before speaking, "You saw it yourself, he can summon vehicles at will, so he must have a large storage space."
Judging from the appearance, this vehicle wasn't previously displayed like this in the forward fortress. This guy is most likely a transmigrator who recently arrived at the forward fortress.
After hearing his companion's explanation, he asked the man a question, and after thinking for a moment, he nodded vigorously.
Then he heard his companion urge him, "Let's not meddle in other people's business. The White Walker army has already been mobilized. While their army is still gathering and their numbers shouldn't be too large, let's hurry over and clear them out first."
"Don't wait until the White Walker army is fully assembled, otherwise we'll only be able to retreat to the outer city and fight them in street battles."
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!"
With the help of the Starfire Flying Boat's extremely high low-altitude flight speed, Dong Qi did not spend much time before arriving at the ninth check-in location, which was the furthest from the forward fortress.
Even when Dong Qi arrived here, he still saw convoys continuing to move forward.
Therefore, Dong Qi ignored the astonished looks of others and continued to venture deeper into the heart of the territory infested with the Others.
When Dong Qi approached the front line, he discovered that the battle had already begun.
Compared to previous patrols where he encountered at most dozens or hundreds of White Walkers, this time Dong Qi saw White Walkers as numerous and densely packed as grains of sand in the desert.
Meanwhile, the team at the forefront fighting the White Walkers seemed to be mostly transmigrators, judging from the fighting methods used by the White Walkers.
With a casual wave of his hand, someone could summon a giant fireball, and each time the fireball exploded, it could instantly kill hundreds of White Walkers.
There were also hands pressing down on the ground, and hundreds or thousands of clay-like puppets gradually emerged from the soil. Then, those puppets that were originally still seemed to come to life and rushed directly towards the area where the White Walker army was located.
The person who intrigued Dong Qi the most simply stood still, and the Others who were about to approach him seemed to die instantly, their bodies limp and falling directly to the ground.
There are probably eight or nine areas like this battlefield here at this moment.
Simply put, these eight or nine people temporarily halted the advance of the White Walker army.
However, although the number of White Walker deaths continued to increase, the people were also slowly retreating while fighting the White Walker army because of the White Walker corpses.
Given the sheer size of the Starfire Flying Boat, it was naturally and quickly discovered by others once it approached this area.
When those people thought that Dong Qi would quickly join the battle after arriving, they did not expect that the Starfire Flying Boat would just watch from the sidelines and had no intention of providing support.
Seeing Dong Qi's reaction, the others did not immediately become angry. Instead, they easily guessed that Dong Qi had probably only recently traveled to this fortress, and that this invasion of the White Walker army might be Dong Qi's first time participating in such a war.
But knowing this is one thing; those people aren't going to kindly explain the situation to Dong Qi.
Even behind those time travelers, there were many people stationed to serve them.
In fact, under normal circumstances, even time travelers who choose the honorary military rank like Dong Qi would form a team specifically to serve them.
In any case, for a strong person like this, it would be quite easy to support a team dedicated to serving them with the contribution points they earn.
Although those people could kill hundreds or thousands of White Walkers with each attack, the seemingly endless army of White Walkers created vacuum zones within the horde even after being attacked by them.
But soon other White Walkers would take their place, and most importantly, the battleground was gradually shifting towards the direction of the humans.
At this point, Dong Qi decided not to stay and watch the show any longer. Instead, he casually chose a flank and tested the electromagnetic cannon to see how it went.
To Dong Qi's delight, the electromagnetic cannon's power truly exceeded his expectations. The projectile that had just been fired pierced through the White Walker army with unparalleled force.
If it weren't for the White Walkers surrounding them rapidly replenishing the vacuum created by the electromagnetic cannon's trajectory, Dong Qi would really want to know just how many White Walkers this time the electromagnetic cannon fired.
However, although Dong Qi did not know the exact number of White Walkers killed, the contribution recorder he had purchased with a loan in advance recorded the specific number.
Dong Qi still doesn't understand how that fist-sized recorder could accurately know the number of White Walkers who died, and even determine who delivered the final blow to them.
However, given that the entire device consists of only one spherical structure, Dong Qi would find it difficult to understand its working principle without disassembling and studying it.
However, Dong Qi is not a researcher, and he has no intention of trying to figure out the principles behind such an obviously unscientific instrument.
Seeing that hundreds of White Walkers had been killed and dozens of contribution points had been gained in just one attack, it seemed that accumulating enough contribution points to exchange for the rank of Major General was not particularly difficult.
Because the electromagnetic cannon can only damage objects in a straight line, the attack just now did not stop the White Walkers who were affecting the Starfire Ship.
But that was just a test; the real battle is about to begin.
With a sweep of the laser cannon, a large area of White Walkers was sliced in two by the laser beam.
However, due to the White Walkers' powerful physique, many White Walkers did not die even after their bodies were cut in two.
Knowing this situation in advance, Dong Qi did not need to finish off the attackers one by one when he saw the scene again, unlike before.
Instead, they directly dispatched pre-made scythe-wielding mechanical wolves, assigning these melee mechanical wolves to finish off enemies.
In order to ensure that these mechanical wolves could complete their finishing blows safely and without harassment, Dong Qi did not retreat while fighting like the others. Instead, he rushed directly into the vacuum area created by the laser cannon.
Not only that, Dong Qi also advanced a distance into the depths of the White Walker army.
The others watched as the Starfire Flying Boat charged headlong into the White Walker army. They weren't fools; they knew that Dong Qi must have some kind of backing for doing this, so they didn't show any mocking smiles.
However, they all slowed down their attack frequency, seemingly wanting to conserve their strength.
Fortunately, many more people arrived at the front line, and with the arrival of more and more reinforcements, the front line, which had been advancing slowly, gradually came to a stalemate.
Dong Qi, who had penetrated deep into the White Walker army, was unaware of the situation on the other side of the battle line.
Once they were truly deep inside the White Walker army, the Starfire Ship was constantly under attack from the White Walkers.
Fortunately, the ship's armor was the Starfire Ship's strongest equipment, so the attacks from ordinary White Walkers couldn't leave even the slightest scratch on its surface.
It was precisely for this reason that Dong Qi dared to venture alone into the heart of the Otherworldly army.
The next strategy will still rely on the laser cannon to start, first disable the attack and movement abilities of the surrounding White Walkers, and then send the scythe-wielding mechanical wolves to finish them off.
Dong Qi had assumed that the scythe-wielding mechanical wolves, which were being used as cannon fodder by the forward fortress, did not have much combat power.
But to Dong Qi's surprise, the mechanical scythes that had been split in two and lay on the ground did not have much trouble reaping the lives of the White Walkers. In fact, in the face of such a scene of corpses strewn across the ground, the mechanical scythes could take the life of a White Walker lying on the ground with each leap and movement.
Dong Qi truly hadn't expected that the scythe-wielding mechanical wolf would have such a high efficiency in harvesting lives.
As expected, the scythe-wielding mechanical wolf that became standard equipment was not because it was weak, but rather because it had the best cost-effectiveness. And for such standard mechanical creatures that need to go to the battlefield, combat power must be the biggest influencing factor.
Although each laser cannon attack creates a large vacuum area, as more and more White Walkers enter the battlefield, those White Walkers who had just been cut in half by Dong Qi are instantly trampled underfoot by the White Walkers that have just surged up.
