Chen Yutong's voice transmission came almost immediately after the mission was issued.
"Junior Brother Baole, you have also received the mission, right? We are going to the seventh primary fortress to assist in the maintenance of the composite Numinous Treasure. Almost all the Armament Soldiers in the Dharmic Armament Pavilion will be leading people to different primary fortresses. There are quite a few who will be going with me. You, Zhou Penghai, and the one called Sun Fang will be in the same group as me.
"The Federation has seven great generals. The general stationed at the seventh primary fortress is called Zhou Dexi. Junior Brother Baole, do you know what a general represents? It is a primary fortress, a ninth-grade Dharmic Armament. It is to expand the territory of mankind. It is an unparalleled honor! "Chen Yutong's tone was very excited, as if he was looking forward to the battle at the primary fortress.
"To become a general, you have to … annihilate an entire tribe! Annihilate any of the top twenty tribes in the Ferocious Beast Index and extinguish their bloodline. Then, you will be conferred the title of general!
"Every time a new general appears in the Federation, we will launch a war to expand the territory of the Ferocious Beasts in the Wilderness. We will build a primary fortress on the reclaimed territory! Over there, we will ignite the Inextinguishable Beacon Smoke that intimidates the Ferocious Beasts!
"The Inextinguishable Beacon Smoke is a ninth-grade Dharmic Armament created by gathering all the top Armament Cultivators of the Federation and using the Blood Souls of the Ferocious Beasts they annihilate!
"My hobby is to create living puppets. My dream has never changed … to annihilate a tribe of Ferocious Beasts and become a general. I will create an eighth primary fortress in the Federation and ignite the eighth Inextinguishable Beacon Smoke!"
Chen Yutong's tone became more and more excited as he spoke of his dream. Finally, he said a little more with continued excitement. After setting a departure date with Wang Baole, he ended the voice transmission.
After putting down the voice transmission jade slip, Wang Baole took a deep breath. After digesting what Chen Yutong had said in his mind, his expression became serious.
Although he was cautious, he was not a timid person. Although he had a bad temper, he was more hot-blooded and even domineering. He knew very well that for the Federation, the crisis of the Direbeasts was like a sharp sword hanging over their heads. Many people even believed that a second Direbeast War would break out in the future.
In addition, regarding the General and the Undying Smoke Beacon … Wang Baole felt that those were not his final goals, because his dream was to become the President of the Federation!
"If I can become a general by annihilating a species, then if I want to become the president of the Federation, I have to annihilate ten species of ferocious beasts, establish ten main fortresses, and raise ten Inextinguishable Smoke Signals. Otherwise, I won't be able to control those generals." Wang Baole took a deep breath, and his eyes shone brightly. He was just like Chen Yutong when it came to expanding his territory. He was filled with hot-blooded passion.
At this thought, Wang Baole began his preparations. After organizing his Dharma treasures, he went to buy a lot of pills. At the same time, he noticed that almost every day, there would be several airships carrying three to five people rushing into the clouds and speeding off in all directions. They were obviously Dao Academy disciples who had set off in advance for the various fortresses.
Looking at their figures, Wang Baole's eyes were filled with anticipation. Three days later, when he had purchased enough resources, the date he had agreed upon with Chen Yutong also arrived.
Early in the morning, Wang Baole left his cave abode early and headed straight for the Academy Administrative Department. He was in high spirits along the way, and he was filled with anticipation for the journey to the fortresses.
Soon, when he arrived at the Academy Administrative Department, he immediately saw that Zhou Penghai and Sun Fang had both arrived early and were waiting for Chen Yutong and Wang Baole.
Sun Fang, in particular, seemed to be very nervous. He spoke respectfully in a low voice beside Zhou Penghai, but his eyes were constantly looking around. The moment he saw Wang Baole, he immediately took a deep breath and took a few quick steps forward. Before Wang Baole could get close, he hastily cupped his fists and bowed deeply, speaking loudly.
"Fang Sun pays his respects to Senior Brother Wang!"
Zhou Penghai, who was standing at the side, had a strange expression on his face when he heard that. He had also heard about Sun Fangfeng calling himself Fang Sun. Now that he noticed how Sun Fangfeng behaved in front of Wang Baole, he couldn't help but laugh. He cupped his fists towards Wang Baole with a look of respect on his face.
Seeing that Sun Fang was on his way, Wang Baole also laughed. After patting Sun Fang's shoulder, he greeted Zhou Penghai warmly and began chatting happily.
As for Sun Fang, after being patted on the shoulder by Wang Baole, he felt as if his body was floating. At the same time, his spirits were lifted, and at the same time, the huge rock that had been weighing on his heart finally dissipated. However, he still carefully accompanied the two of them. No matter what Wang Baole and Zhou Penghai said, he nodded repeatedly.
Before long, Chen Yutong also arrived, fully armed. Looking at Wang Baole and the other two, he laughed and said nothing, immediately taking out his own dirigible.
Unlike Wang Baole's dirigible, Chen Yutong's dirigible was obviously of higher quality. It could accommodate ten people, and it was completely silver in color. It looked extremely extraordinary.
"Let's go!" Chen Yutong waved his hand and jumped onto the dirigible. Wang Baole followed suit, followed by Zhou Penghai, and finally, the cautious Sun Fang.
After everyone had boarded the dirigible, Chen Yutong took a deep breath, and his eyes lit up.
"Everyone, we have to help each other along the way. I hope that when we return, none of us will be left behind!" After he finished speaking, Chen Yutong's spiritual power suddenly spread out. In an instant, a cultivation at the peak of the True Breath realm that far exceeded that of Wang Baole and the rest erupted and merged into the dirigible. After a tremor, the dirigible shot out a shocking amount of power and instantly flew into the distance.
Wang Baole stood in the dirigible and turned to look at the rapidly shrinking Green Forest Lake in the distance. He slowly took a deep breath, and his eyes were filled with determination for this mission.
Unlike the dirigible of the Ancient Martial Region and the civilian use, Chen Yutong was a top Armament Soldier of Upper Academy Island and the most popular candidate to be promoted to Deputy Pavilion Leader. Moreover, he was at the peak of the True Breath realm. His dirigible was extremely fast. Even though it was not close to the seventh primary fortress, it would only take a few hours if everything went smoothly.
If it had been the dirigible that Wang Baole had taken in the Lower Academy Island, it would have taken an extremely long time. After all, there were too many adverse weather conditions along the way, and every one of them would affect the dirigible's speed.
Only a dirigible like Chen Yutong's could ignore most of them due to his extraordinary cultivation. However, there were also many weather conditions that even Chen Yutong's dirigible did not dare to approach.
As for the ferocious beasts, although there were also ferocious beasts within the Federation's borders, most of them were at the Ancient Martial Region. True Breath realm ferocious beasts did not dare to be too presumptuous. In fact, the Federation also wanted to exterminate all the ferocious beasts within its borders. However, this was too difficult. With the nourishment of the Spirit Qi, many wild beasts would mutate into ferocious beasts every year.
However, if they really wanted to do it, it was not impossible. However, for some reason, the Federation's focus was only on the ferocious beasts that were comparable to the True Breath realm. Every year, there would be a specialized department to target the beasts and exterminate them.
However, there were also some regions that seemed to have reached an agreement with the Federation to not invade each other!
At that moment, Chen Yutong's dirigible whizzed past the clouds. From afar, it drew a white line in the sky. There was also the sound of the dirigible tearing through the air. It was like the roar of a huge beast.
Inside the dirigible, Chen Yutong and Wang Baole stood at the front and looked at the distant sky.
On the ground that they flew past, they could see many cities. Unfortunately, most of the regions were desolate and covered by forests. Occasionally, they could even see the ruins of some former cities.
"When the war between the ferocious beasts broke out, humans were at a disadvantage in that battle. More than half of them perished …" Chen Yutong looked at the ruins that they flew past and said softly.
"Regarding that battle, I have read a lot of information. At that time, among all the factions in the Federation, the highest level of cultivation was only at the Foundation Establishment realm. There were no Core Formation realm cultivators!
"However, among the ferocious beasts, there were three Core Formation realm Beast Kings …
"Fortunately, at the critical juncture, someone from the Federation finally broke through the Foundation Establishment realm and stepped into the Core Formation realm. That was the reason why there was a possibility of turning the tide of the war. At that time, the Divine Armament was born. After all the factions and ferocious beasts fought over it, it was finally obtained by the four Dao Colleges!
"The appearance of the Divine Armament finally led to a great victory for the Federation in that battle. They opened up the seven main fortresses and killed all the Beast Kings. Unfortunately, they were unable to exterminate them …
"However, I believe that as we continue to advance, there will come a day when the planet under our feet will completely belong to us!" When Chen Yutong said that, a strong light shone in her eyes.
Wang Baole's emotions fluctuated. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly noticed that a fortress had appeared on the ground. This fortress was built on top of a valley. The ferocious spikes, the pitch-black metal walls, and the Numinous Treasure cannons on the ring-shaped platforms within the spikes all exuded an awe-inspiring aura.
Not to mention the densely packed warriors in the fortress and the murderous aura that they exuded!
"We're here?!" Wang Baole immediately looked over. Chen Yutong, Zhou Penghai, and Sun Fang beside him all looked over as well.
"This is a small fortress. Not far ahead is the seventh main fortress that we have to report to!" Chen Yutong said in a deep voice after taking a look.
"This is just a small fortress?" Wang Baole's heart trembled. Very quickly, he noticed that many fortresses like the one from before had appeared on the ground. Although these fortresses were considered small, they were actually very large in scale. Most of them were built on the mountain ranges and complemented the main fortresses, forming an irregular blockade line!
Very quickly, after a few minutes, when Chen Yutong announced to everyone that the seventh main fortress was right ahead, Wang Baole was shocked to see the earth-shattering metal wall on the mountain ranges in the distance!
It was impossible to describe how great the waves in his heart were at that moment. Wang Baole's heart trembled. He felt that everything in front of him was so much bigger than the small fortresses from before. It was like a national gate that supported the heavens and the earth!
