Starting from the recovery of Shanhaijing

Chapter 473 Stars
Through the connection of the blood contract.

Yan Jing felt the transformation of Huying.

Long before the Great Crusade, Yan Jing completed the leap in life because of the successful arrangement of the Fengyu Gate in Xiangong City. As the other party of the blood contract, Huying had already accumulated the energy to re-evolve at that time, and what he lacked was only a opportunity.

Although Huying's oppression of the spirit and soul made Huying fall into a trap, it also broke the shackles and allowed him to successfully seize the opportunity in the struggle.

I am gratified by this.

Yan Jing quickly realized that the battle situation on the floating island was likely to be much worse than expected.

The existence of the monster group makes the monsters entrenched on the floating island no longer loose sand that can try to defeat them one by one.

They enslave monsters in some way, make them form a real beast horde, and carry out the siege plan according to their arrangement.

Needless to say, its danger.

If the zerg hadn't been released in advance, the landing troops would have been hit hard as soon as they landed.

Fortunately, Tiger Firefly's transformation allowed the swarm to survive the most difficult period. While stabilizing the situation, a large number of eggs began to hatch from the flesh and blood collected from the battlefield with the help of creep.

Some of the Zerg whose function is biased towards logistics have even built temporary nests in the forest.

In the past, the construction of insect nests had to be carefully selected to ensure sufficient concealment and safety.

However, the current situation obviously does not allow such a slow advance.

The monsters on the other islands on the outer defense line will arrive soon, and the landing force must have a strong enough defense force at that time, so everything must be efficient.

To put it bluntly.

Yan Jing is going to use the swarm as a human shield to fight a war of attrition against the beast horde!

Only swarms born for war are best suited for this task.

Of course, the preparations of Shen Qiong and others are also very important, after all, most of the floating islands are defense bases.

Under the premise that the Zergs are attracting frontal firepower, the landing troops are now rushing to various defensive fortresses for emergency repairs, restoring the defense equipment in the fortress as quickly as possible.

This is the only way for them to survive.

The expeditionary fleet has more important tasks to complete, and it is difficult to continue to provide assistance.

"My lord, there is news from the front that the fleet has successfully broken through the outer defense line of the airport, and the road to the airport is close at hand."

After receiving the news, Fu Shudao immediately told Yan Jing.

"Keep the current speed, and don't let down the opportunities that Shen Qiong and the others have won."

Putting the situation on the floating island behind for the time being, Yan Jing knew that now was not the time to think about it.

This is the only chance to regain the airport. If they fail here, it will be meaningless to defend the floating island for a long time. If they succeed here, then any sacrifice will be worth it.

With that in mind, Yan Jing added,

"Adjust the deployment on the deck. The environment near the airport will only be worse than the floating island. Prepare the air combat troops. There will be a fierce battle waiting for them!"

Shen Qiong and Xue Li led a group of elite armored fighters and engineers to land on the floating island, which weakened the deck defenses of the two air dragon boats Xun Tian and Lei Ting, and had to be redeployed to fill in the loopholes in the defense line.

As for the fierce battle that Yan Jing believed was about to occur, it came from the harsh environment outside the airport that he discovered during his last reconnaissance.

At that time, relying on Hu Ying to cross the gray mist belt, Yan Jing encountered many powerful evil spirits on the way. Judging from the current situation, even if some monsters will be separated from the gray fog belt to go to the floating island, the remaining ones may not be able to survive. Not easy to fix.

If the flying dragon boat wants to regain the airport, it must break through the gray fog zone and hit the monsters hidden in it head-on.

The expedition fleet skimmed the floating island and advanced rapidly towards the airport.

The outer line of defense is not far from the airport.

Although the expedition fleet is huge, it can arrive within 15 minutes.

The only problem is that the road is not very smooth.

The fall of the floating island attracted the attention of evil spirits, and a large number of flying monsters began to reinforce the former.

For these monsters, there is no option to detour when they bump into the expedition fleet on the way, they just launch an attack directly.

At this stage of the Great Expedition, there is no such thing as stealth, and only the most difficult frontal confrontation remains.

The machine gun turrets and forts on both sides of the flying dragon boat are no longer stingy with shells at this time, pouring firepower at the monsters who dare to approach.

As the leader of the expedition fleet.

Yan Jing never changed her position, still standing on the wall of the inner city.

It's just that there is an extra high-quality longbow on hand.

This is one of the equipment purchased from the Torch Bazaar in advance.

The longbow doesn't have any special effects, what Yan Jing likes is its ability to track and kill from a distance.

As long as a monster enters the range, an arrow made of dragon and tiger energy will shoot out immediately, blasting it in the air.

Of course, this kind of spot kill ability is nothing compared to the huge number of monsters.

In fact, Yan Jing didn't expect to bring much damage to the beast horde by this method.

His goal is simple.

Make sure the warriors on deck can see themselves and know that Li Vulcan is fighting alongside them.

"Report to His Holiness, a sharp increase in the evil energy in the environment has been detected."

On the side of the city wall, soldiers rushed up at a trot and reported loudly.

Yan Jing turned her head and looked over, holding the bow in her hand.

The extreme deterioration of the environment near the airport has long been known to everyone, so what is there to report?
Fu Shudao was obviously equally confused. He took a few steps forward to get the text recording the data from the soldier, his expression changed suddenly, and he reminded,
"My lord, about 5 minutes ago, there was an explosive increase in the concentration of evil energy, especially in the direction of the airport."

"That guy in the direction of the airport is acting like a demon again?"

The expedition fleet is protected by the image of Dragon and Tiger Yama, and will not be eroded by evil energy. Now that this kind of thing happens, in Yan Jing's view, there is only one possibility. The evil spirits in the airport are performing some kind of ritual.

"How far are we from the airport now?"

"There are less than ten kilometers left, and we are about to reach the gray fog zone around the airport."

Unfolding the map, Fu Shudao roughly estimated the current location of the expedition fleet, and said.

"Scatter the reconnaissance airships, monitor the vicinity of the fleet, and take off all combat airships to guard around the fleet to guard against possible sneak attacks!"

Hearing that he was about to reach the gray fog zone, Yan Jing couldn't help but frowned, and said repeatedly,

"The fog-shrouded area outside the airport is extremely dangerous. It is the last barrier of the airport. Only by breaking through it can we really get close to the airport. The evil spirits will definitely stop us in this area."

The gray fog zone was the only remaining obstacle between the expedition fleet and the airport, and the concentration of evil energy suddenly increased. Yan Jing had to suspect that there was something wrong in the gray fog zone.

That being the case, ensuring the safety of the expedition fleet when passing through the gray fog zone has become the top priority.

With the order issued.

The combat airships docked on the dragon boat deck took off one after another, and the orange tail flames were particularly eye-catching in the night.

In order to ensure safety, Yan Jing did not intend to let the combat airships leave the fleet to fight, but let them take on more defensive tasks.

It's not that the quality of the air combat troops is not good enough, but that the environment outside the fleet is too harsh, and the high concentration of evil energy will also cause varying degrees of erosion on the airship itself.

The fleet moved on.

While being an archer, Yan Jing left the city wall and came to the top of the watchtower on the dragon boat deck again.

It turns out his hunch was correct.

Just when the expedition fleet was about to reach the gray fog belt, in the dark sky covered by the heavy rain curtain in the distance, a cluster of dark green fluorescence with a diameter of several hundred meters suddenly surged up in the shape of a mushroom cloud.

Yan Jing really didn't know enough about Xie Chong's methods, and the previous reconnaissance was just a short wait and see, and he didn't even see the real body.

It's just that this doesn't prevent him from using this light source to observe that the gray fog belt around the airport is changing.

Due to the influx of a large amount of evil energy, the gray fog belt at this time has expanded several times compared to what Yan Jing saw in the last reconnaissance, and now it is integrated into the dark green fluorescence, and the reaction is even more violent.

Standing on the top of the dragon boat watchtower and looking at it from a distance, the entire gray fog zone was churning like a sea storm in a short period of time, and the interior was also mixed with dark green fluorescence. It was not a good thing to know without thinking about it.

This is obviously some kind of ritual being performed by the evil spirits in the airport, trying to strengthen the gray mist belt.

That's all.

What was really troubling was that at the same time that the gray fog belt appeared abnormal, the storm that had been raining for two whole days had quietly subsided.

Through [Death Core Evil], Yan Jing noticed the abnormal fluctuations in the nearby space.

The longbow in his hand was hanging down, not only Yan Jing, everyone in the expedition fleet seemed to have a premonition, and suddenly looked up at the sky.

The dark green fluorescence diffused and penetrated into the cumulus clouds covering the night sky.

In an instant, the torrential rain stopped, and the clouds dissipated completely.

Instead, it was the dark purple misty starry sky that had appeared countless times in the world of Shenzhou.

Only this time people don't need to use the observatory.

The entire starry sky became exceptionally clear, but those who watched it only felt chaotic, and a strong sense of oppression affected everyone's mind.

The stars are turning at this moment.

The starlight is transformed from complicated bright spots into skewed lines.

In the obscure galaxy, there seems to be a terrifying existence crawling in it, guiding the starlight, and condensing into a magic circle that has never been seen before.

The palm holding the longbow suddenly tightened.

Others may still be confused by the scene in front of them, but Yan Jing has already guessed what is hidden in the starry sky.

A terrifying evil spirit wandering in a different space!
It is trying to manipulate the starry sky, forcefully break through the barriers of the Shenzhou world, and create suitable conditions for its coming.

The evil spirits lurking in the airport chose to make noise at this juncture. It seems that what they want is not only to strengthen the gray fog zone, but also to use this method to get in touch with the high-level evil spirits in another world, and to use the latter's power , completely destroying the expedition fleet.

'It must be intercepted! '

Looking at the increasingly chaotic starry sky, Yan Jing's heart sank.

With his current strength, he is still not enough to face the high-level evil spirits in different spaces. If the opponent is really allowed to open the passage to descend, it may become a luxury to continue this great expedition.

Fortunately, the promise given by Torch in advance was not a lie to appease them.

Just as the chaos in the starry sky continued to deepen, another force intervened forcefully.

The obscure galaxy instantly radiated bright light, the distorted starlight was corrected back to what it should have been, and the evil silhouette crawling in the starry sky also disappeared.

Use the original power of the Shenzhou world to forcibly block the arrival of high-level evil spirits in different spaces.

This made Yan Jing heave a sigh of relief and at the same time gained a bit of confidence, shouting to Fu Shudao on the tower,
"Forward! Speed ​​forward!"

Yan Jing's voice made everyone wake up like a dream. The fleet members who were affected by the change in the starry sky before knew that the situation had not deteriorated, so they immediately calmed down and continued to implement the plans that had been made.

The expedition fleet finally hit the gray fog head-on.
No, it should be said to be the dark green storm area now.

Although it failed to attract high-level evil spirits to destroy the expedition fleet, the evil spirits in the airport successfully turned the gray fog belt into a more threatening storm area. If the expedition fleet wants to regain the airport, it must forcefully break through this area .

If the expedition fleet chooses to temporarily stop to look for opportunities, it is playing into the hands of evil spirits. It only needs to wait for the gap in the outer defense line to be filled. It has plenty of time to use the beast tide to completely consume this last human fleet.

"My lord, with the current protective measures of the fleet, I'm afraid I want to rush directly into the storm area."

Fu Shudao ran to Yan Jing who had just jumped from the top of the watchtower, and said worriedly.

The flying dragon boat can last for so long in the harsh environment of the Shenzhou world, and its defense ability is outstanding, but the storm full of evil energy in front of it is obviously beyond expectations.

The hull of the dragon boat may not be afraid and can be carried by force, but the soldiers on the deck faced with this level of storm damage, nine out of ten will be directly overturned and forced to be involved in the storm.

"Don't worry, leave it to me, let the fleet center on the Xuntian, shrink as much as possible, and don't be too far apart from each other."

At this time, any hesitation may affect the battle situation. After Yan Jing gave the order, he went straight to the front deck of the Xuntian.

Although Fu Shudao didn't know how Yan Jing was going to protect them, he still supported His Majesty's order without hesitation, and hurriedly spread the news to all parts of the fleet.

So the fleet suddenly began to change formations during the last distance before the storm.

The advance speed of the Xuntian slowed down, and the other six air-traveling dragon boats carried out Yan Jing's order meticulously, occupying the front, rear, left, right, plus the lower six directions of the Xuntian.

The gap between the hulls is compressed to the extent that they can interact with each other.

The violent storm hit head-on, and the corpses of monsters scattered on the fleet deck were blown away one after another. The armored soldiers sought positions to stabilize their figures. As for the ordinary soldiers, they were forced to enter the buildings on the front deck to take shelter from the wind.

Yan Jing stood alone on the bow of the Xuntian.

He raised his right hand high, holding up a mysterious totem.

Boundary Domain!

With the totem as the center, the spiritual energy barrier expanded rapidly, covering the entire fleet.

Cooperating with the image of Dragon and Tiger Yama's rejection of evil energy.

Yan Jing resolutely unfolded the [Element Domain] special effect of Realm·Yuan.
