Starting from the recovery of Shanhaijing

Chapter 467 Set sail!

It takes five hours for the scout airship to travel from Lighthouse Island to the airport.

Due to the huge size of the expedition fleet, the speed will inevitably slow down, and it will take about eight hours.

Although the sky is so gloomy that it is difficult to distinguish between day and night, the senior management of the fleet decided to fight during the daytime as much as possible after discussion to avoid evil spirits and strange monsters at night when they are extremely active.

Taking into account the work and rest of ordinary people.

Fleet executives finally chose to set off in the early morning of the fifth day.

On the night of the fourth day, the expeditionary fleet relaxed the food rationing to ensure that every boatman could enjoy a sumptuous dinner.

The aroma of food wafts in the cabin of each empty dragon boat, accompanied by light and lively music to aid sleep, so that all boat people can have a comfortable night and recharge their batteries.

The fleet uses this to convey information.

The expedition is about to begin.

As the supreme leader of the expedition fleet, Yan Jing never closed his eyes. All the senior officers of the fleet and the chiefs of the various combat units simply took a rest for a while, and then began to devote themselves to the final preparation stage before the expedition.

The battle plan is discussed over and over again, not letting go of every detail that can be improved.

The maintenance of weapons and equipment must be accurate to every part, and no accidents are allowed. Especially the heavy weapons on the deck of the fleet must be checked repeatedly to ensure that they can be used as soon as possible after the war.

Communication equipment must be implemented in every combat team, even if it is a new wandering ship, it must obey the orders of the fleet's top management, and must not follow the information of its own to disrupt the overall operation of the fleet.

At three o'clock in the morning, Yan Jing stepped down from the deck.

Walk alone to the lighthouse in the middle of the floating island.

In its original form, Huying wandered around, making sure that no evil spirits were lurking nearby to spy.

Arriving at the main entrance of the lighthouse, Yan Jing looked at the lighthouse in front of him that was still emitting light to disperse the evil energy, and took out an item that looked like a miniature totem from the torch space——jie·yu!
During the discussion with Fu Shudao yesterday, Yan Jing said that he wanted to move the lighthouse away to help the expedition fleet.

After the follow-up inspection of the flying dragon boat, Yan Jing also realized that it is not realistic to move the lighthouse on the flying dragon boat. It is not that it cannot be moved, but that the flying dragon boat has no place to store the lighthouse.

After all, most of the deck will be turned into a battlefield, and it is undoubtedly nonsense to use the remaining open space to fix the lighthouse.

Regardless of whether it is possible to fix a hundreds-ton lighthouse on the steel deck in a short period of time to ensure the normal operation of the ritual circle inside it, if it is installed forcibly, it will also affect the actions of the flying dragon boat itself.

So Yan Jing gave up the idea of ​​transferring the lighthouse to the flying dragon boat.

However, this does not mean that he gave up transferring the lighthouse.

The light of the realm and domain spreads in all directions centered on Yanjing, and finally covers the entire lighthouse and its surrounding area.

Immediately afterwards, a deep blue vortex appeared above the lighthouse.

After half an hour.

The walls of the inner city on the Skywatcher deck.

Fu Shudao and others noticed that the lighthouse that had sheltered them for more than half a year was extinguished.

"This is a signal from His Majesty, immediately notify the expedition fleet and prepare to set sail!"

Fu Shudao's eyes were shining brightly, he slapped the wall with his right hand, turned his head and said excitedly.

Shen Qiong on the side quickly picked up the communicator, contacted the members in the main control room of the Xuntian, and asked them to start preparations immediately.

The command headquarters of the Expeditionary Fleet is located on the Sky Patrol.

Important orders for commanding the entire fleet will be issued from this. As for the detailed combat missions, they will be decided by the leadership of each airborne dragon boat. As long as there is no special order from the Xuntian, everything will be based on the original expedition plan.

Tom~tom~tom~
Accompanied by a few muffled sounds.

In the inner city of Xuntian, there is also a sentry tower on the front deck. Three beams of light tore through the night and shot straight into the sky, illuminating the turbulent dark clouds.

This is a predetermined signal.

In an instant.

The other six flying dragon boats docked around the lighthouse island then turned on the most powerful searchlights.

The high-pitched whistle sounded throughout the expedition fleet.

This is a declaration and a cry, calling everyone to wake up from sleep.

The time for war has come!

At dinner time, the boat people who had already prepared psychologically left the warm mattresses and said goodbye to their families.

Young and strong men and women quickly put on weapons and equipment or carried toolboxes and rushed to their posts. The elderly and children went to their respective shelters in their dragon boats to ensure that they would not be affected during the war.

The sound of running footsteps, the chants of the crowd, and the sound of machinery still operating in the factory gathered together, making the quiet cabin suddenly boil.

The confusion in my heart was dissipated by the excitement when the crowd gathered, and replaced by some kind of responsible fanaticism.

Signal lights come on.

The mechanical elevator runs at full speed.

The moment the door leading to the deck was opened, the wind and rain outside rushed in.

Generally over [-] meters, the soldiers in power armor were the first to rush into the rain curtain with big strides. The rainwater slid down the armor.

The remaining troops need to assemble in the cabin and temporarily stand by.

Currently, because the lighthouse is closed, the deck is filled with evil energy, and there are no enemies coming.

There is no need to rush out to bear the baptism of wind and rain at this time, increasing the risk of being infected by evil energy, the key is to accumulate strength.

The first batch of battleships on the front deck are ready to go, and the air combat units are in place one after another. The fighters enter their respective combat airships, adjust the instruments, check various data, and enter the standby state.

The expedition fleet does not need them to dispatch for the time being. After all, there is still a long way to go from the airport. They are a vital force in the landing operation.

The repair workshops and supply stations on the deck have green lights, indicating that they are ready. They all have passages leading to the middle of the cabin, where energy is stored, weapons and ammunition are stored, and the medical room is located.

Yan Jing returned to the Xuntian at this time.

Climb the wall of the inner city and join Fu Shudao and others.

"My lord, the expedition fleet is ready!"

Fu Shudao's waist was straight, and even an elderly man had a rare bit of vigor.

Walking to the middle of the city wall, Yan Jing cast his eyes on the dark night in the distance, looked around at the expedition fleet around him, took a deep breath,

"Set sail, target airport!"

"Your Majesty ordered the expedition fleet to set sail and head for the airport!"

After receiving the order, Shen Qiong immediately picked up the communicator again, her face flushed a little because of her excitement, and her voice was loud.

The first to respond was still the Sky Surveyor.

The whistle changes.

The machine roared like thunder, and the searchlights swept the night.

The huge dragon boat turned around and soared into the sky, followed by the expedition fleet.

This fleet, which represents the most powerful human beings in the Chinese world, is like a giant dragon waking up, soaring through the clouds and fog, breaking through the heavy rain curtain all over the sky, and roaring furiously towards the dark night shrouded in evil energy.

Such a huge momentum.

Not surprisingly, it caused a chain reaction in the nearby airspace.

The monsters that had been harassing the fleet in the past two days approached again.

The erosion of evil energy made them completely lose their minds, leaving only the hunger for human flesh and blood, so that they completely disregarded how powerful the fleet was and launched continuous suicide attacks.

The monster bird with a body length of more than five meters folded its wings and fell like a cannonball. The evil energy was attached to its surroundings. From a distance, it looked like a black meteor falling rapidly, and there were dozens of similar existences at least.

Yan Jing, who was standing on the city wall, had no intention of making a move in the face of such a scene.

If the expedition fleet can't even deal with this level of attack, there is no need to continue this expedition.

What's more, the soldiers need to warm up now. A few small victories can calm their anxious mood, and at the same time greatly boost their morale, which is not low. More importantly, let the boat people who have just joined the fleet know that this This great expedition is by no means a hasty passive counterattack, but a war initiated by the human side.

No extra commands are required.

The drills in the past six months have made the combat troops of the expeditionary fleet accustomed to dealing with various crises.

In the face of small-scale monster attacks, they showed extremely high fighting qualities.

The closest Leiting, the two flying dragon boats of Yufeng, opened fire first. The soldiers manipulated the heavy cannons on the front deck to form an anti-air firepower network, and easily shot down most of the strange birds. The powerful firepower even knocked them out of the sky shredded.

Occasionally, a very lucky strange bird or other monsters with special abilities broke through the firepower net and landed on the deck, and they would be immediately surrounded by armored soldiers.

For nearly half a year, the fleet sent troops to the floating island every day to collect the seeds of chaos and train extraordinary fighters. Coupled with the strengthening potion brought by Yan Jing, the individual combat effectiveness of the elite troops continued to rise.

The heavily armed soldiers held the chainsaw swords and chopped the monsters to the ground. As long as the heavy shotgun hits, they can immediately smash part of the monster's limbs. There are also teammates who are responsible for cleaning up, sucking all the flesh and blood of these monsters into the machine and throwing them out ship.

As several waves of impact were easily defended by the fleet, cheers soon resounded from all over the deck.

The once vicious monsters faced the expedition fleet, but they no longer had the unscrupulous madness of the past. The panic emotions of the boat people who had been threatened by monsters in their respective settlements no longer existed, and they couldn't wait to show their bravery through battles.

The monsters' suicidal attacks obviously won't stop there. Xie Chong seems determined to use this method to slow down the expeditionary fleet's progress, consume their vital strength, and at the same time find the fleet's flaws.

In the final analysis, the current Shenzhou World is to a certain extent the home field of evil spirits, and they naturally want to take advantage of this aspect.

Fortunately, the expedition fleet has long considered this situation.

The way to deal with it is very simple. The elite armored fighters began to rest in a planned way to conserve their strength. The combat troops who were on standby in the cabin before boarded the deck, relying on the armored troops to form a new line of defense in the form of infantry coordination.

"So far, there are only a dozen minor injuries in the expedition fleet. The cooperation of various departments is good, and the speed of progress is also expected. The cards we prepared should be hidden."

As the command center, Xun Tian receives information from all over the expedition fleet all the time, and the battle situation of each dragon boat will be reported as soon as possible.

As for the hole card that Fu Shudao mentioned, it was naturally the Zerg army brought by Yan Jing.

During the preparations for the first stage of the expedition fleet, the team led by the captain of the guard on the two flying dragon boats, Gray Owl and Jianmu, took a large number of Zerg eggs and Zergs to the nearby floating island.

With the help of the settlement's intelligence network, they locked multiple places that could be used for Zerg breeding in a short period of time.

Although the time is urgent and it is difficult to breed a large number of zerg, they can only complete the evolution to adapt to the environment to the maximum extent, but counting the batch that Yan Jing stored in the Kunpeng space, if it is put into the battlefield, it is also a decisive force.

But the reason why the hole card is called the hole card is because it will only be revealed at a critical moment.

Especially under the premise that the evil spirits have noticed the expedition fleet, the Zerg army needs to hide even more.

The real threat has yet to emerge.

Amidst the sound of guns and guns, the expedition fleet continued to advance, running over the incoming monsters, and approaching the direction of the airport.

Xu Shi realized that it was difficult to prevent the breakthrough of the expeditionary fleet by ordinary means. The monsters that had been harassing before disappeared in an instant, so that the sound of guns and guns from all over the fleet stopped at almost the same time.

The battlefield fell into an eerie silence, only the sound of the fleet advancing.

"They retreated?"

"No, it's just a temporary retreat. They are shrinking their strength and preparing for the next surprise attack..."

Hearing someone beside him whispering to himself, Yan Jing shook his head, suddenly seemed to notice something, looked at the night ahead, and said in a deep voice,
"Immediately throw a flare to the front of the fleet, I can sense that the evil energy is gathering!"

In Yan Jing's view, it is impossible for Xie Chong to care about the life and death of monsters in the Shenzhou world, and all its actions are to destroy this great expedition.

After receiving Yan Jing's order, the front deck immediately fired more than a dozen flares, illuminating the night sky in front of the fleet.

Everyone looked at the area lit by the flares, trying to find traces of evil spirits or monsters.

But just a few seconds later, the dozens of flares that should have been burning for a long time turned inexplicably dim.

The dazzling orange-yellow light seemed to be swallowed by the darkness. It first gradually shrunk, then changed into a light orange, and finally disappeared into the depths of the darkness.

Before the fleet could figure out the situation, the light beam projected by the flying dragon boat also began to weaken.

Now everyone realized the problem.

There is only one possibility to weaken or even extinguish the light source in a short period of time.

"Sir, we found a large cloud of black fog ahead, and the spectrum detector issued an alarm. Dark disaster!"

The scout on the watchtower reported at this time, with a trembling voice.

According to past experience, dark disasters only occur once a year, and as long as they survive, they can get a short period of safety.

The current situation undoubtedly meant that Xie Chong no longer tried.

The real test of the expedition fleet is coming!
