Winter came exceptionally early on Nether Domain Star.
It started in August and ended in December. During these four months, the activity of the planet's core slowed down, causing the heat on the surface to be unable to continue. The monsoon from the north to the south brought with it a cold air. Frost fell from ten thousand miles, and the heavens and earth were extremely vast.
It was only winter, and the temperature tomorrow would be lower than the previous day. As a result, the temperature during the day had dropped to a very suitable level. It was like the spring and autumn seasons on Earth, but such good days were very short. By the middle of the month, the daytime had already dropped to around 0 degrees, making life activities extremely difficult. Even Blood Hawk Base began to reduce the amount of training.
When it began to snow, balls of gray-white snowflakes fell, covering the playground, buildings, warehouses, and factories of the base with a layer of white frost. In order to prevent too much snow from crushing the roof of the building, the base had no choice but to organize manpower to remove the snow every day. This was a different type of battle, and the amount of stamina required was no less than fighting against the Saber Demon.
However, with the arrival of winter, the traces of the Saber Demon's appearance gradually decreased. Apart from the ten tribes that had mastered the core technology of the planet, it was very difficult for the other tribes to migrate on a large scale in this weather. This allowed the bases at the rear of the war zone to heave a sigh of relief. At the very least, the Saber Demons of the ten powerful tribes, due to their nature of liking heat and fearing cold, had a large decrease in their combat strength in winter.
Russen's choice to attack at this season was not a random one.
Before winter, Blood Hawk Base received another 500 recruits from Sirius's reserve regiment. Due to the cold weather, their training was not as frequent as Allen's. In their spare time, they either helped the base clear the snow or went to Allen's workshop to participate in the opening of new projects.
The detailed plan for the Fire Fighting Rifle had been submitted to Windsor Bellow, who then transferred it to Horn. Bescot's Magic Martial Factory would focus on the Fire Fighting Rifle for a long time to come. After all, what they had to satisfy was the combat needs of Sirius's nearly 30,000 soldiers. Windsor Bellow decided to completely replace the standard equipment of the legion soldiers. The huge profits from this were enough for Bescot to continue to rise in the next few years.
Allen, on the other hand, began to open another sequence after the Fire Fighting Rifle. This basic sequence was an extremely ordinary Origin Energy Shield. It had two characteristics: absorbing energy shocks and resisting physical attacks. What Allen wanted to do was not only to make changes to its energy conduction pivot array so that it was suitable for ordinary soldiers to use. There was also the effect of group defense.
The sequence plan named "Honor Barrier" had been designed and was now in the data collection stage. If there were no accidents, it would be able to produce a batch before the end of this winter and use it experimentally in the Blood Eagle Base.
According to Allen's design, the Honor Barrier could be activated five times by itself. When used alone, the effect was not obvious. It was just an ordinary Origin Energy shield, but if used in a group, it would build an Origin Energy barrier. Its sturdiness depended on the number of users. A barrier formed by a hundred or so people was enough to reach the full strength of a Saber Demon Chieftain or general. A barrier at the level of a thousand people could reduce the power of a high-energy cannon by 75%.
As for the consumption of the barrier, it was equivalent to the Origin Energy equivalent of a Blazing Missile every two times. When soldiers were equipped with Flame Fighting Rifles and Honor Barriers, how the commander reasonably arranged defense and attack would be a completely new tactical topic.
Of course, that was not Allen's consideration.
At the end of August, it was time for the second round of data collection for the Honor Barrier. It was still the same field where the Flame Fighting Rifle was tested. A hundred recruits wore 100 finished products produced by the workshop for testing. The recruits formed a square formation, and opposite them was Coggess, who was carrying the Steel Eagle Saber.
Allen nodded and said, "You can begin."
Coggess smiled at the recruits opposite him and said, "Boys, use all your strength to activate the barrier. Don't let me kill you. "
Origin Energy exploded, and Coggess directly activated the Second Grade Engraving. When the Thunder Titan pattern appeared, the lightning on the Steel Eagle Saber swallowed, and the pressure in the entire space was astonishing. Even if the projection of the ancestor did not appear, everyone knew that Coggess's next attack would not be simple.
Allen stretched out his hand and clenched his fist. The soldiers roared in unison and raised their left hands. They wore something like a bracelet on their left cavity. That was the test vehicle for the Honor Barrier. As the soldiers poured Origin Energy into the vehicle, the shields came alive one by one, and the shields under the shields were connected into pieces. Finally, they formed a thick Origin Energy barrier that occasionally flashed past the six-sided light patterns.
The Honor Barrier activated, and Coggess was no longer polite. With a loud shout, his aura surged, and an invisible impact spread out in a fan shape with him as the starting point, heading straight for the formation of soldiers opposite him. Apart from being affected by Coggess's aura, his face was a little pale. Under the invisible impact of the Origin Energy, the soldiers behind the barrier did not have any other abnormalities. Coggess nodded secretly. Suddenly, he leaned forward and pointed his saber forward. A bolt of lightning first appeared on the blade. In an instant, the lightning grew stronger, completely enveloping the saber and the person. It was like a bolt of lightning crossing the distance between the two sides, heavily colliding with the Honor Barrier.
Lightning flashed, and muffled thunderous explosions rose and fell one after another. As the two collided, balls of lightning continuously shot out from the lightning on Coggess's saber. When the balls of lightning collided with the barrier, it was another string of martyrdom. The explosion lasted for ten seconds before all the lightning bolts were poured out. The Honor Barrier flashed twice before disappearing, and the faces of the soldiers behind him were ashen. After a while, their legs softened and they sat on the ground one by one.
None of them were injured!
"Not bad." With his eyesight, it wasn't hard to see that these soldiers were soft, but they weren't exhausted of Origin Energy. It was only because he was rushed by his own momentum and didn't have much confidence in the Honor Barrier that he was afraid. Now that the test was completed, all of them fell to the ground.
Allen said calmly, "We still need to go through some tests …"
At this moment, everyone's heads darkened. Raising his head, it turned out that an airship was circling above the base. After adjusting its direction, it slowly landed in the direction of the playground. The ship was pitch black, and the edges of its wings were as red as blood, filled with an oppressive smell. Coggess frowned and said, "It looks like a death-spreading airship. Why are they here?"
In the command building, Berry brought the other two majors to the playground. On the playground, Major Luda had already arrived ahead of time. Berry glared at him fiercely and asked, "Major, why didn't you inform me in advance that the General would come personally?"
Major Luda smiled and said, "You'll probably have to ask General Russen yourself about this."
Berry naturally wouldn't really ask Russen. He had just been informed that the Commander of the Death Spreading Legion, General Russen Daonan of the Federation, had actually arrived. Now was the time for death to spread to the place of raging fire, and Berry couldn't figure out why Russen had come to the base at this moment.
One thing was certain, it was definitely not a good thing.
However, this time, Russen wasn't riding on his Yama, it was just an ordinary frigate for the spread of death. After the airship landed on 6, the lift deck landed on the ground, and a burly figure immediately appeared at the cabin entrance. When that figure appeared, it was like a black hole, causing people to feel as if there was a bottomless abyss in front and behind it.
At this moment, a cold light lit up in the bottomless abyss.
It was Russen's one-eyed eye.
As a heavy square-toed military boot stepped out of the cabin door, the veteran general, who was famous throughout the Federation for his coldness and bloodlust, walked down the deck. Russen's short, gray-white hair stood upright in the cold wind like steel thorns. The skull blindfold covered his left eye, making his only remaining eye as bright and sharp as a falcon. He pursed his lips tightly, his face expressionless, making it impossible to see through what he was thinking.
At the neck of the cloak, the fur collar made from the fur of the Netherworld Fox was dancing in the wind like a purplish-black nether flame. Under the cloak, on the black gold-rimmed uniform of the Death Spreading Legion, the badges pinned to his chest were displaying the military exploits that the general had obtained. General Russen walked off the flying ship with his hands behind his back. Major Luda hurriedly greeted him and bowed, "Respected General Russen, you're here."
After Russen, another person got off the ship. It was a young girl, and it was unknown if she was born like this or if she was interested. The colors on the left and right were gray and black, and they were tied into a pair of ponytails of different colors. She had a cold and elegant appearance, and a rare black eye rippled like the ripples of the Nether River, bringing only the deepest despair. Her slightly slender body was tightly wrapped in the pitch-black military uniform of the Death Spreading Legion. When he saw her, Lu Da's throat was dry, but he didn't dare to let his gaze pass above the girl's knees.
He licked his lips and said, "I didn't expect Lady Catherine to come as well."
Reaper Catherine, one of Russen's generals. He was only 17 years old, and his combat strength was great. Together with the Sirius Legion Commander Windsor Bellow and the Rose Empress Commander Melinda, they were known as the three most outstanding women in the Federation Army.
Colonel Berry and two majors stepped forward and saluted, saying, "I wonder if General Russen and Major General Catherine are here. It's our fault for being rude. "
"It doesn't matter." Russen opened his mouth and spoke in a low and thick voice, like the howling wind in the canyon, making one's ears uncomfortable. He said, "Colonel Berry, I'm pressed for time, so I'll make it short. I heard that Blood Hawk Base has opened some pretty good magic energy weapons in the past few months. They're called Flame Fighting Rifles. I've read the report. This is indeed equipment that will significantly increase our army's combat strength. I wonder who is in charge of this project? "
Berry had a bad feeling, but he had to answer, "It's Sergeant Allen, General."
"Then call him over. I want to see this great sergeant."
"This …"
Berry was about to find an excuse to refuse when Russen let out a muffled snort. Everyone felt as if the air around them had frozen. An invisible pressure made them feel suffocated. Berry barely raised his head and met Russen's shining one-eyed gaze. He said helplessly, "I'll get Sergeant Allen to come over right now."
After saying that, he said to Perry, "Go inform Ellen and Marshal …"
The last sentence was said in a hushed voice, so only the major could hear it.
Perry hurriedly went down, and Russen glanced at the base and said, "Colonel Berry, you've done a good job. It will be of great help to us for the logistics base to be able to provide the magic energy weapons needed by the frontlines. I will report this credit truthfully. You are hopeful of being promoted. "
'"Thank you for your kindness, General. However, this Flame Fighting Rifle was actually personally developed by Marshal Windsor Bellow and indicated that it was only used within the Sirius Legion. After all, the practicality and stability of the newly opened weapon had yet to be tested, so it was not appropriate to rashly announce it. Otherwise, if something goes wrong in actual combat, no one will be able to bear the responsibility. "Berry said in a deep voice.
Guess what else will happen later?
