Him and their stars

At this moment, in the training ground on the outskirts of Crystal City, more than a thousand kilometers away from Lord Canyon.

More than two hundred astral knights from the blue side have all landed on the battlefield. The attack team personally led by Viscount Shameen penetrated several enemy lines of defense, but was still included in the large-scale psychic illusion formation by Count Seliora. What awaits the knights in this formation change is not only the illusions and fog that will disorient them, but also the spiritual weakening that will affect their physical strength and will, as well as more than three thousand soldiers gathered by Brigadier General Kebed himself. Elite armored grenadiers.

All of these soldiers have been in battle more than three times, are proficient in martial arts, and are brave and fearless.

Of course, no matter how brave they are, they are just ordinary Imperial soldiers. Faced with the oppression of the Astral Knights, they naturally feel inferior. But at this time, they had no such feeling at all. They felt that they were born to be rebels who wanted to bring down the knights from their high positions.

This is naturally because Count Seriola's spiritual realm has covered the entire scene. All our own soldiers were buffed, and each of them seemed to have eaten too many leaves. It felt like they would dare to rush up and bite a falling Titan with their teeth.

Viscount Shameen finally fell into a hard fight. Of course, this "bitterness" is actually relative. Their charging progress has been slowed down, but overall they are still making progress.

The effect of the four-image tactic is obvious. Every tactical unit is a perfect sequence of four-in-one offensive and defensive long-range auxiliary. As long as teammates are not scattered, even the debff facing Count Seriola and those enemy soldiers who are possessed by the aura of fanaticism will be able to It's totally manageable.

If the previous tactics had been used, the attrition would have been more than twice that of this time, and the attack would never have gone so smoothly.

"That man... is indeed a genius!" Although Shameen had already regarded that man, the founder of the Four Elephants Tactics, as his greatest enemy in his life, he had no choice but to be convinced at this time.

But, again, whether it is bitter or not is relative, and victory is also relative.

Their original plan was to penetrate the 12th Division's defense line within fifty minutes, seize the military supplies in the warehouse area, and complete the transportation within half an hour.

Taking into account the time set aside for various accidents, the knights must not stay on Sarna for more than two hours.

But now, this is already forty minutes after the war started. Shamaine and his friends are still trapped in the great formation launched by Count Seliora. He had no confidence that he could successfully break through within ten minutes.

"Yeager, what do you think?" Shameen asked his "chief of staff" Soback on the communication channel.

"This, Your Excellency, even if we invest our troops again, the frontal battlefield will not be able to unfold." Soback said helplessly.

This is the most troublesome thing about psykers equipped with sigil machines. It's okay in space, but if it's inside a battleship or on land, dozens of people can cover a fairly large battlefield. In this way, the width of the battle line is naturally no problem, but the depth is a subtle metaphysics.

At this time, Colonel Yeager Sobak had also completed the airborne landing with the team, and was on the battlefield with a grimace on his face and at a loss. It was obviously an exercise, but such a scene filled with lightning, thunder, and fire was much more spectacular than any actual battle he had participated in before, and it was also much more gorgeous than the Ares Festival - after all, blasting a turtle with a cannon didn't require much technical content.

After all, Soback is just a "country bumpkin" who grew up in the New World and is quite uncomfortable with the current scene.

Fortunately, he was wearing a coat of arms, so others couldn't see his expression. Otherwise, the character of the Knights' new "wise general" would have collapsed long ago.

"Yes, if you and Baron Ye Hailuo lead the second team to support, it will only make the battlefield more chaotic." Shameen said.

"Yeager, what's your suggestion? We all listen to it." Baron Ye Hailuo said.

"My opinion..." Yeager's head turned rapidly, and his heart suddenly moved: "I, the official, checked the surrounding information before coming here. There are only two companies stationed in Crystal City. A planet shield generator, including an anti-aircraft artillery array. Although it has not been used for many years, those equipment are only stored, not abandoned."

Enough said at this point. Given the quality of the empire's weapons, anti-aircraft guns can certainly target the ground. All he had to do was find Count Seliora's location and fire at his position.

Of course, the Seventh Ring boss may not necessarily be killed by anti-aircraft artillery, but he must not be able to operate such a large-scale psychic array safely, right?

Shameen always felt that he had heard this trick somewhere, and he shuddered immediately, but said: "Very good, let's do it."

Soback was overjoyed and nodded in agreement.

It’s nice not to have to rush into the sand to chew on hard bones! Soback thought.

There is a successor to the Knights! Shameen thought, and then shouted loudly: "Everyone, keep moving forward. Even if you can't break through the enemy's formation immediately, you must force the Knight Commander out of his position!"

In the observation post, Yu Lian and Tantai Jing, who were ready to have a good meal, were looking at each other, and then they saw confused looks in each other's eyes.

Now, three good friends from the Iron Army Complex and one of my subordinates encountered the enemy inexplicably, and the signal was also interrupted.

Of course, although this situation is urgent, it is not too unexpected. You know, when everyone went to the ground for the first time, they were attacked by a quantum ghost from the Lao Shizi virtual realm, which showed that the factory ruins underneath must not be as peaceful as imagined. Although it was calm there again during this period, Yu Lian could not help but keep a cautious eye on it.

Although the other party's communication had been interrupted, and although monitoring feedback from the transportation department soon told him that the tunnel leading to the ruins had collapsed inexplicably, this was still within the range of Yu Lian's expectations.

"Elder brother, I..."

"I'd better go and have a look. I've been to the virtual realm a few times, but I really don't understand things like quantum. It's even harder to understand when paired with a ghost. I should go and learn more about it." Tantai Jing said: "You are an active-duty officer, and your responsibilities should be here. You should see it until the end."

If Eldest Brother is going to be a strong sixth-level person, he should be much more reliable than himself. However, my subordinates and their newly met Tiejun friends were trapped underground, but I didn't go to help. I always felt a little unrighteous. However, as a formal member of the military observation group, I do have an obligation to watch the battle until the end and give a detailed and constructive report. He hesitated for a moment.

Really, if something happens sooner or later, something will happen later, but it happens at this time. Isn't this too much of a coincidence?

...However, speaking of coincidence, Feifei seemed to have said that they should be preparing to open the cabinet. Doesn't it have anything to do with the situation here?

The more Yu Lian thought about it, the more he felt that it was filled with evil spirits, so he immediately called Feifei again.

Needless to say, I couldn't get through.

This time, even the senior brother felt something was wrong.

"I'll go take a look at the ruins. You go and notify the Sarna Star Agency and the Security Command immediately. My instinct tells me that something big is going to happen!" said the senior brother.

What's the saying? Oh, yes, psychics must learn to trust their sixth sense. When your intuition tells you that there is a Murphy nearby, there must be ten Murphys hidden around you.

So, as soon as Eldest Brother finished speaking, the change happened again.

At this time, they were outside and clearly felt the changes in their surrounding environment. The cool breeze blowing over from the wasteland no longer smells of earth and grass, but it vaguely carries a hint of blood and heat. The clouds in the sky cast oppressive shadows, and white thunder seemed to be beating in the shadows. Immediately afterwards, the sky changed from the previous blue to an ominous pale white.

Logically speaking, this should be a normal climate change, but both of them had smelled a special smell.

Something bad is about to happen. If it was just the so-called sixth sense just now, now it is completely real. However, what is more uncomfortable than having something bad happen is knowing that something bad will happen, but not knowing what it is and when it will happen.

Now, the two of them are in this awkward situation.

However, you can’t just do nothing. Generally speaking, in this situation, the stupidest option is to stay where you are and do nothing. This is an experience Yu Lian learned after suffering many losses in his previous life.

Thinking of this, he used his eyes to signal his senior brother to let him continue according to the original plan, and let him go to the ruins to rescue General Griffith, the others, and Brother Poppas, while he stayed where he was and continued to observe the situation.

However, Tantai Jing held his chin up and thought for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "I'll leave it to you over the ruins. I think there may be much bigger things happening here."

Yu Lian was slightly startled, and was about to say something, but suddenly he saw thunder and lightning flashing out from behind the billowing dark clouds, and striking down the fields and urban areas. In an instant, it was as if thousands of lightning swords fell from the sky and struck the ground.

Thunderstorms of this scale are almost impossible to occur under natural conditions.

It is said that more than a hundred years ago, a huge thunder and lightning storm also occurred in the Great Pulse Plain. Dark clouds brewing countless violent energy lasted for several days in the sky over the wilderness, completely changing the natural environment of the entire wilderness. . To this day, unnatural cold storms of considerable scale still occur from time to time in that rich plain.

A trace of unbearability flashed in Yu Lian's heart.

To be honest, if those obviously unnatural thunders hit the training field in the wilderness, no matter how many Imperial soldiers and astral knights were killed, he would not only not be moved at all, but would gloat and want to laugh. However, there are still hundreds of thousands of ordinary citizens in Crystal City, including countless innocent old, weak, women and children.

What a humanitarian disaster!

Yu Lian sighed, thinking about how to rescue the disaster, and then a thunderbolt hit less than a hundred meters in front of him. However, what immediately rose up was not the thunder and lightning whirlpool he had imagined, but a monster with thunder and lightning wrapped around its body.

The monster has a very typical predator appearance, with a streamlined and strong body, thick and powerful limbs, two flexible necks and an extremely ferocious head, full of sharp teeth, and the tail behind the thighs is extremely thick. It is wrapped in fine scales like a crocodile, like a steel whip.

Its whole body is still wrapped with lightning that is still flickering and beating, and its body surface is flowing with a red light like a flame. At first glance, it really looks like a monster crawling out of hell.

"Axu beast?" Yu Lian and Tantai Jing said in unison.

Tantai Jing then looked at Yu Lian even more surprised: "Oh, do you understand it very well? Did you see the information there?"

"This..." Yu Lian was a little embarrassed. Monsters in this virtual realm are very rare, and there is almost no information preserved. If a serious person has never encountered them, it is almost impossible to have any understanding.

When it comes to the key question, all the whereabouts of Yu Lian in his life are traceable, and he has indeed never encountered such a thing from the underworld.

A trace of relief seemed to flash in the eyes of the senior brother, and he patted Yu Lian on the shoulder: "No need to explain, senior brother understands."

What do you know?

But at this time, the Yaxu beast was already roaring and rushing towards this side.

There is a saying that if it were a normal animal in the material world, Tantai Jing would just stare at it, and that guy would have to run away. However, they still followed their instincts and pounced on the two of them. Even their roars are actually more like a predetermined shock program, without any emotion.

These are Yaxu beasts. They are cell fragments of the virtual realm. They can exist in any form. Their purpose of existence is to eliminate all foreign objects that enter the virtual realm. And if it descends into the main material universe for some reason, its purpose of existence will only be one - to kill all living things with all its strength.

There is no way, this can only be understood as the natural rejection of the two lives.

This Yaxu beast indeed has the ability to completely massacre a small town, but before it rushed to a place more than ten meters away from the two of them, Tantai Jing pointed at it casually, and it felt as if it had been stuffed in its stomach. Like dynamite, it exploded on the spot. However, there was no flesh and blood debris that was splashed away, but only some beating arcs that danced in the sky for nearly half a minute before slowly dissipating.

This is the nature of Yaxumon. They are not life, just cell fragments derived from the virtual world. The so-called elimination of it is actually just to return it to its origin and drive it away from the virtual realm.

Although the enemy was instantly killed with one blow, neither Yu Lian nor Tantai Jing could laugh. If every lightning strike just now dropped a Yaxu beast, doesn't it mean that tens of thousands of such monsters have fallen in this wilderness?

What's even more frightening is that more than half of them fell directly into Crystal City.

The only good thing is that some knights have left the battlefield early for some reason and are heading towards Crystal City. They should be there soon.

"The exercise here should be impossible. So, you go to the ruins, and I'll go to the Crystal City." Tantai Jing repeated his previous arrangement: "If it's the Yaxu Beast, the people over there in the Crystal City Jun and the police can't deal with them. There are 300,000 civilians there, and their mayor and the president of the martial arts association invited me to dinner last week to save them."

If there were thousands more Yaxu beasts in the Crystal City, it would be understandable for the senior brothers to make this arrangement. After all, he is the sixth ring. His mental, physical, attack and mobility must be above Yu Lian, so he should be able to save more people. If you really fall in accidentally, you will have to face the siege of thousands of monsters, and it will be easier to escape.

In addition, the knights who have already rushed towards the city may not be willing to cooperate with their life-and-death enemy, but it would be much better if they were replaced by their senior brothers.

Yu Lian did not stop his senior brother.

He has reasons to stop others from killing people, and he has reasons to let himself kill people, but he has no reason to stop others from saving people.
