Atlas of Heaven and Man

The airships of both sides passed each other, then quickly pulled away amidst the sound of propellers.

Many people on Da Shun's side finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although the journey was thrilling, at least there was no accidental firing.

When Bian Zhijie and Wang Tongshan saw that the Federation's airships had no intention of turning back, they knew the matter was over.

Only after those airships and the ships on the sea gradually turned into small black dots did they release the weapons in their hands, feeling both fortunate and regretful.

They could have started a war just now. They weren't afraid in their hearts. After all, they were martial artists. Those who could break through to this level were not easy to deal with. There was a moment when they even had the idea of rushing up and fighting.

Bian Zhijie said, "Damn, the medicine was wasted."

Wang Tongshan exhaled, "It's a good thing we didn't fight. Forget about the medicine, the visiting group has subsidies. Brother Bian, did you see it just now?"

"I saw it." Bian Zhijie revealed a look of envy, "Too cool!"

That implanted exoskeleton, majestic and domineering, he really wanted one too.

Wang Tongshan also said with some envy, "That should be issued to martial artists who have reached the Changsheng Temple level."

Bian Zhijie couldn't help but ask, "Are all Changsheng Temple martial artists issued one?"

Wang Tongshan shook his head and said, "Not everyone has one. As far as I know, you also need to have made great contributions to the country, especially the merit of eliminating enemy infiltration. At least, that's how it is in the military."

The two came from different backgrounds. Bian Zhijie's father's generation had extensive connections in state-owned enterprises, while he came from a military family. News about martial artists in the military was always very well-informed.

"So that's how it is..."

Bian Zhijie was slightly disappointed, but he quickly cheered up. With his age and talent, he might not be able to achieve that in the future.

Above the main ship in front, Chen Chuan was still standing on the open-air deck. He glanced at the distant island and knew that the matter was over when he saw that there was no movement in the military port there.

As long as the other side didn't go crazy, there would be no accidents. Even if the other side really dared to attack, he would not hesitate to fight back.

They were the official visiting group sent by Da Shun. Attacking the visiting group was equivalent to attacking Da Shun, and he would not be soft-hearted at all. Don't look at how many troops the other side has, but it's just a matter of spiritual impact. Even if the other side has local support, they won't be able to make it in time.

Of course, in order to avoid escalating the conflict, he would give the other side a little face and would not destroy the entire base or affect the central city on the island.

Inside another large ship, Chief Xie felt a little relieved at this time. He looked back, took out a handkerchief and handed it over, "Lao Lu, wipe it."

Lu Guangsheng was stunned, took it, wiped the sweat from his head, and said a little embarrassedly, "Chief Xie is laughing at me."

He Yishan on the other side was fine, except that his face was a little unsightly, and it could be seen that his condition was still okay.

Chief Xie said, "Lao He, I remember you used to be on the battlefield?"

He Yishan was slightly startled. He said, "I didn't expect the chief to know this. Actually, it's not really fighting. I used to be a war correspondent for a while. I didn't carry a gun, just took pictures or something."

"That's very difficult."

Chief Xie said, "You two go and rest first."

The two understood what he meant. Lu Guangde said, "Then we'll go down and clean up first. If there's anything, Chief, just call us."

At this moment, the communications staff sent over a report, and the news was sent from the Gessephi Continent.

The message informed them that the fleet at the base was holding an exercise just now. Because the signal was shielded in advance, it did not accept any external information transmission. It just so happened that the diplomatic team came at this time, so they mistakenly regarded them as the exercise army.

This was caused by an "information transmission error", and they deeply apologized for this.

He was expressionless, directly contacted Chen Chuan, and asked, "Director Chen, did you see it?"

Chen Chuan replied, "I saw it. An explanation is better than no explanation. It shows that they still have scruples on the surface and don't intend to tear their faces apart."

Chief Xie said cautiously, "Director Chen, this time we relied on your personal power to suppress them, but according to my past experience, this action is a bit unusual, and it may not be the end. There may be more tests in the future."

Chen Chuan responded, "Chief Xie, I will pay more attention to the team's defense. Our team is also very good. They all carried out the orders very well just now."

Chief Xie nodded. This was what he was more gratified about. As long as there were no problems within the team, then he was confident to deal with all external challenges.

He said, "Director Chen, I noticed that you submitted an application report to the rear. I have urged the rear to send the things over as soon as possible."

Chen Chuan said, "Chief Xie, thank you."

Chief Xie said, "We are a team, as it should be."

After ending the call, Chen Chuan thought for a while. Before coming, he had read the logs. The first diplomatic team did not encounter such a situation when they came here. On the one hand, the Federation attached great importance to the first batch of delegations, and there were not only many military personnel but also personnel from the capital office.

In addition, the previously reached agreement may seriously squeeze the interests of the West Coast Party, so it is no wonder that it will cause such a strong reaction.

As Chief Xie said, there should be a follow-up to this matter.

At this time, he looked at it. According to the current speed, it was about less than two days away from the west coast of the Federation. If there were no accidents in the meantime, then they should be able to arrive at the first stop by tomorrow morning.

With a thought, he withdrew the field and exited from the exoskeleton. When he got outside, he used mental communication and said, "Hongfu, from now on, record everything you see along the way as much as possible."

Hongfu said, "Okay."

West Coast of the Federation, Cerano Chazhou.

There is a tribe of the First People forced to the geographical edge, with only a thousand people left.

At this moment, there are bursts of gunfire outside the tribe's camp. Hunters wearing blood-colored cloaks and riding modified horses are running back and forth around the camp, making strange whistles and firing a few shots into the air from time to time.

These war horses are covered with scale-like exoskeletons, and there are extended trachea on both sides of the horse's neck, connected to the poison sac inside the body. The cavalry on horseback are all highly implanted, and the large-caliber hunting guns in their hands are uniformly equipped with bone blades that can be used for close combat.

These are the Blood Hunters, high-level bounty hunters funded by the federal government and some companies, responsible for hunting down the First People.

In the camp, some tribal people holding rifles are hiding behind earthen walls and chevaux-de-frise, nervously watching the blood-colored cavalry whizzing around the camp, and behind them stand a few fighting warriors holding cold weapons.

In the central area of the tribe, the sacrificial elder is leading all the tribesmen to kneel around an altar. At least a hundred cavalrymen have come, and there are also upper-level martial artists from the Federation inside. They cannot stop them.

Although they don't know why those people haven't rushed in yet, under the threat of the tribe's imminent demise, they have to turn to the ancient nature spirit for help.

Because of the decrease in population and the migration of the tribe, the nature spirit that has been worshiped since the ancestors' era now only occasionally responds to them once, but now this is the only thing they can rely on to protect them.

Although a huge amount of livestock and a small number of people's lives have to be sacrificed every time, this is a sacrifice that has to be made for the continuation of the race.

Outside the tribe, two New Light Sect-robed cultists were riding on horseback looking inside. One person said, "It should be almost there, right?"

Another person said patiently, "Don't worry, give them a little more time."

Those tribal members of the First People did not know that the nature spirit they worshiped had already been secretly polluted by the New Light Sect's rituals in private. Just four kilometers away from them, the New Light Sect's believers had already arranged a huge secret ritual.

A raging bonfire was burning in the center, and the cultists kept throwing ritual materials smeared with a lot of blood into it.

The New Light Sect ritual personnel covered their bodies with robes, only revealing their eyes and mouths, holding torches and shouting loudly there. The worshipers around were also extremely crazy. Faintly, a crack flashing with light was flickering out.

At this moment, in the camp of the First People, with the tribe's worship, a strange mist began to emanate outward from the altar. The mist became larger and larger, and the range became wider and wider. The tribal members of the First People unknowingly fell one by one and turned into withered corpses. Gradually, a figure mixed with blood color was generated inside.

On the Da Shun visiting team's side, after another day of voyage, the navigator issued a reminder before nightfall that if they maintained the current speed and altitude, they would reach the Linax Federation before eight o'clock tomorrow morning.

However, only half an hour later, a large area of dense fog was detected ahead.

This fog seemed a little abnormal, because it appeared suddenly, and there was no skyline set up here, and no field could be used. They could not contact the nearest central city, so they were not sure of the specific coverage of the fog.

In order to avoid collisions, the entire fleet calibrated and exchanged coordinates, speeds, and barometers.

Then, with a series of loud sounds, the floodlights on the airships all lit up, and when they were plunged into the dense fog, they looked like large fish with lanterns hanging on them sailing in the deep sea.

In the Federal delegation, Prabakar looked at the mist in front, slowly sat up, put his palms together and said: "The rapids have arrived, can't avoid it, can't avoid it."
