"That's our target … …"
On the ocean, a huge ship was slowly sailing … …
From this position, they could already see the shadow of the mainland in the distance. Cold winds were blowing from there, and that was the base of the brain spirits.
After repairing the ship, the army on the island immediately decided to set off for the Southern Continent.
During the battle with the imam, the brain spirits used balls of light to bombard the island and destroy the imam's fortress. However, the Incan worms' counterattack made them stop attacking. After that, the brain spirits didn't attack the island again.
The swarm and the dragons on the island were on guard, but they didn't discover any danger, so they decided … … to attack the Southern Continent.
Although they had just experienced a battle, if they left it alone, the brain spirits' army would likely continue to grow and become stronger. Therefore, they decided to quickly get rid of this threat.
The Scholar stood at the bow of the Jade Dragon, thinking about what had happened … …
Was the imam's' betrayal 'of his own volition? Although … … Muketu said so, the Scholar still believed that the imam couldn't have done so.
He was definitely under some kind of control. This wasn't just because of the Scholar's understanding of the imam, but also because … … of the strange things he felt when he was on the imam's ship.
The Scholar remembered clearly that there were some strange signals coming from the imam's cabin.
Although the signals were similar to the brain waves of the imam, they didn't belong to him. Moreover … … the imam didn't seem to want to kill the Scholar at that time.
The Scholar believed that the imam was under some kind of influence, but the other creatures here … … didn't seem to think so.
In fact, the Incan swarm didn't really care. They said that as long as something attacked them, they would retaliate with all their might.
As for the Jade Dragon and the Skeleton Dragon, they didn't really care about the imam. They only cared about defeating the brain spirits in the Southern Continent.
They were the only ones who cared about the imam. Only the Scholar. The Scholar believed … … that the imam was definitely innocent … … But, how was the imam now?
When the Incan swarm dug up the remains of the imam's fortress, they found some rooms that were still intact.
These rooms were relatively sturdy, and wouldn't have been damaged by the impact of the crash. However, in these rooms … … the imam couldn't be found.
After the imam pushed the Scholar off the small boat, he flew back into the fortress. This scene was clearly seen by the scholar, and it probably did not escape later.
After all, at that time, the fortress was constantly surrounded by a large number of insects, and it had no chance to escape.
However, the imam had indeed disappeared. The swarm could not find him in the fortress.
Perhaps it was not in one of those safe rooms and was crushed somewhere else? Or perhaps they used some special method … to escape and hide.
The scholar thought that the Hierophant might still be alive. That thing obviously wouldn't die so easily …
But where would it be?
Moreover, other than the imam, Moketu seemed to have disappeared as well.
When Moketu was on the island, he had appeared on Cryopteris. Later, when it was close to daybreak, he said that he wanted to return to command the troops, and then ran off to who knows where.
Of course, the brain-created monsters were also missing. The Brain-Created Monster and Muketu had disappeared around the same time. The Scholar thought that the Brain-Created Monster might have followed Muketu and wanted to kill him.
This was because the Brain Creation Monsters were extremely angry when Muketu asked them about their relationship with the Brain.
"Caw! Let's prepare to land! "
While the Scholar was deep in thought, the ship had already approached the coast of the Southern Continent. The Emerald Dragon's warships slowly slowed down and stopped near the rocky shore.
"Build a base here!" Susumi was now commanding, "Prepare to start assembling the ground troops!"
"Caw!" The Jade Dragons quickly moved all kinds of things down from the ship. The Scholar found that they were also carrying some special things.
These special spherical objects were used to assemble 'Dreamscape equipment'. They could create all kinds of Dreamscape equipment. When the Jade Dragons were equipped with all kinds of Dreamscape equipment, the Scholar thought that they were almost comparable to the troops of the Voidfolk.
However, the Jade Dragons did not have any weapons of mass destruction, but this was not important.
The Scholar looked up and saw many flying insects flying in the air … They were the scouting troops. These insects quickly spread out in the sky, and at the same time, transmitted the images they saw through the devices they carried.
The Scholar climbed down the ladder on the edge of the deck. On the rocky shore, the Jade Dragons were building their camp. The camp looked like simple tents, but at the same time, they were building something that seemed to be advanced technology.
There was a device that looked like a three-dimensional image device. It was a disc placed on the ground, and on the disc was a three-dimensional image. This was the image of the Inca army.
The Scholar walked to the side of the three-dimensional image and looked at the image that was constantly changing. It showed that the Inca army was flying towards the depths of the Southern Continent at an extremely fast speed.
"This was … blown up before?"
The Scholar saw a huge black hole in the image. Around the hole, there were countless things that looked like metal pieces.
This should be the big hole that was blown up by the worms. When the brainlings shot the light here, the worms shot back an even bigger 'light ball'.
After that, the brainlings stopped attacking. Perhaps their weapons were blown up … but the Scholar felt that their weapons were not limited to this.
The scouting troops of the Inca army also flew above the hole. They investigated everywhere in the hole, as if they were analyzing the metal pieces.
There did not seem to be any brainlings nearby. The ground was dyed black and there were all kinds of black buildings. According to the speed at which they spread, the scouting troops should have already seen them.
However, it seemed like the brainlings were hiding? Why would they do that? Could it be that the troops were not ready yet, so they hid until they were ready? If that was the case … there was still a chance to find them and get rid of them …
"They're here!"
Suddenly, the Scholar heard the cry of an Jade Dragon.
"Ga! Enemy troops suddenly appeared in the distant snow! " This cry came from a 'sentry tower' not far away. This type of tower was built first every time they arrived at a place. It could observe the surrounding area very far away.
The Jade Dragons that were tidying up the camp immediately picked up their weapons. Including the Scholar, they all quickly gathered under the tower.
"They actually appeared so quickly …"
The Scholar climbed up the tower and used the black wood on top to look into the distance. On the distant snow, there were many figures of creatures.
They were wearing armor and holding Void-like weapons in their hands … these creatures were Atlan's troops.
They were now about three kilometers away from the Jade Dragon's camp. These Atlan troops stopped at that location. Then, like the Jade Dragons here … they began to build a camp there.
The Scholar noticed that the camp they built was very similar to the Void-people's camp. It was built using a kind of small machine that quickly assembled various parts to build it. However … their buildings were all black, as if there were no other colors.
However, the Atlan's own armor had different colors. The Scholar thought that it might represent their 'military rank'.
"Ga! Don't stand here for so long! I still have to report! " The Jade Dragon that was originally in charge of the sentry tower pushed the Scholar away and picked up the Distant Wood to continue observing.
The Distant Wood was made of wood, so it had this name. However, it could see quite far away, so the Scholar did not need to continue watching. Because of the clear 'image' of the Distant Wood, the Scholar remembered all the Atlan troops that it saw just now. The Scholar thought that the Atlan troops were holding short-range weapons and could not attack from that position. Therefore, it was very suitable to launch a surprise attack on them.
It seemed that Susumi thought so too.
"Everyone, get ready! Those things are starting to set up camp not far away from us! We have to attack first! "
"Ga!"
Under Susumi's orders, the Jade Dragons pushed the ballistas to where the sentry tower was, and the sharp arrows were aimed at the Atlan troops that were still setting up camp in the distance.
At the same time, the nearby Humerus Dragons did the same. They pushed their weapons to the front, and the Inca insects in the air continued to circle in the sky.
They seemed to be planning to watch the battle and not participate in it.
"Fire!"
The arrows left the bowstrings with a roar, and with a sound like an explosion, a large number of arrows were shot towards the Atlan troops in the distance.
Because the snowy ground was very flat, the arrows did not encounter any obstacles and hit their targets …
"Boom!"
Even from here, they could hear the distant sound of the crossbow bolts crashing into the group of Atlans. The powerful impact directly tore apart the first target along with its armor, and sent a large number of Atlans flying. Finally, the crossbow bolts stabbed heavily into the snow, and a large number of cracks spread out in the surrounding area.
This ballista … If it could explode, it would be no different from a missile.
The Scholar climbed up another tower and obtained a blackwood that no dragon could use. She observed the battle in the distance.
Under the bombardment of the ballista, most of the Atlans who stood at the front were turned into minced meat. Their blood dyed the snow red. Only then did the Scholar believe that … these Atlans were not machines but living things.
However, their actions were indeed somewhat mechanical. They did not scream or show any fear. Instead, they quickly raised their weapons and aimed in this direction …
Those should be short-range weapons … Could it be that they could hit that far? (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it. Your support is my biggest motivation. Please search for Floating Astronomy.
