According to Lin Yun's original estimations, a fort would take at least half an hour to completely stabilize. But now, it looked like he had underestimated the power that Noscent's mages could burst with if they united.
All the steps and time had already been calculated when the fort was transported here. By the time the fort arrived, the frontline had already advanced by five hundred kilometers.
From the moment the stronghold arrived to the moment it was completed, it only took ten minutes!
In ten minutes, there was no need to care about the fort anymore. Moreover, in order to ensure that this fort node wouldn't negatively affect the future Hexagram Array, these crazy guys directly turned a dozen kilometers of land into a mage version of reinforced concrete.
As time passed, the range would continue to expand. In less than 10 days, this fortress would be connected to another fortress that was dozens of kilometers away, and the range of this huge reinforced concrete would be guaranteed to be dozens of kilometers in an instant …
After all the auras of this fort were linked together, Lin Yun felt a bit intoxicated just thinking about it.
'Those b * stards really want to push things to the extreme. A few thousand kilometers of land would turn into a huge mage version of reinforced concrete, and the depth would extend to at least three kilometers.
'With the power of the Hexagram Array, this passage would truly become a barren land. The entire space would become a complete mage version of reinforced concrete. At that time, even a Divine Flame Mage wouldn't be able to destroy a steel fort. To destroy a steel fort, they would have to thoroughly destroy the entire passage.
This was ten thousand times more difficult than destroying a few thousand kilometers of land. Only a God with power close to that of a God would be able to do it.
Previously, when he was chatting with Agalon and Alonzo, he had casually mentioned an idea, and the two of them had extended their ideas to the extreme and had completely gone to the extreme.
But this was indeed the best method at the moment. Lin Yun couldn't think of a safer method. With a glance, Lin Yun confirmed that the steel forts in the rear were all operating according to this method. If nothing unexpected happened, the remodeling should have already been completed and the passage leading to the Leviathan Plane had already been blocked. Even if they failed, the Undead wouldn't be able to rush into the Leviathan Plane.
In the worst case scenario, they would only be able to maintain the status quo.
After another ten minutes, Lin Yun felt that this steel fort, as a part of the Hexagram Array, had already been activated. The power of the array had already started appearing, and the chaotic mana fluctuations were forcibly suppressed. The aura also became normal, and the frontline battlefield seemed to have been isolated.
In twenty minutes, the territory occupied by Noscent's side had once again expanded by five hundred kilometers. These areas couldn't be taken away after being occupied.
It was a perfect masterpiece. Lin Yun couldn't find fault with this kind of efficiency. Now, he only needed to follow the established method and nibble away the Undead bit by bit until they were driven out of the passage. At that time, the Hexagram Array would be completely set up. Part by part, the Hexagram Array would be activated to block the Undead army first. Finally, the six Saint Alchemists would thoroughly activate the Hexagram Array and this matter would be thoroughly resolved.
Lin Yun followed Gandaph and floated three kilometers in the air, looking at the fierce battle on the frontline. Mana crystal cannons, large-scale spells, magic battleships …
The firepower piled up and crushed the Undead for a few hundred kilometers in a short half an hour. Most of the Undead in that area were crushed to death, suppressing the spread of the sea of Undead.
By the time they were suppressed, the transport team transporting the steel fort was already waiting and followed the majority to suppress the Undead.
After suppressing the Undead with the strongest firepower, a large number of weaker mages, swordsmen, and puppets worked together to get rid of the remaining Undead to ensure that there wouldn't be any mistakes during the construction of the steel fort.
And by the time the firepower from the frontline weakened a bit and the Undead started strengthening their counterattack, the steel fort in the rear had already been set up.
By activating the phased array, they would first have a part of the power to suppress and resist, and with the support of the steel fort, the frontline troops would be able to easily resist the Undead's counterattack.
They would slowly harvest the Undead and reduce the number of the sea of Undead. By the time the scale of the sea of Undead was no longer that powerful, the mages in the rear would have more or less recovered and they would once again gather the strongest firepower to continue the attack.
They would keep repeating this cycle. If they didn't succeed, they would keep pushing forward bit by bit. This was the best method at the moment, because they didn't need super powerhouses to make a move, powerhouses under the 5th Rank of the Heaven realm were enough to control this situation.
On the Undead side, Level 45 or above Undead Overlords would occasionally appear on the frontlines. For an Undead Overlord to appear like that, it could only mean one thing: the Undead under that Undead had almost been completely wiped out.
The Undead were quite inflexible in this aspect. From the start of the war to the end, 95% of the time, the Undead would be the cannon fodder, constantly consuming the Undead. Countless Undead would fight to the death, and Undead Lords would basically never appear. Only when the war was about to end would two Undead Lords appear.
If there wasn't too much enmity between them, then this war would just be like gathering soulfire for everyone. Perhaps after the war ended, two powerful undead would appear under my command.
If there was a deep-seated hatred between the two Undead Lords, then only one would survive. Whoever won would devour the Undead Lord's Soul Fire. No matter how heavily injured the Undead Lord was, as long as the Undead Lord devoured the Undead Lord's Soul Fire, the Undead Lord's Soul Fire would recover from all injuries. In fact, the Undead Lord's Soul Fire would even increase his or her level.
Now that they were fighting against Noscent's allied forces, the Undeads were still fighting in this way, giving Noscent's allied forces this advantage.
Gandaph looked at the battle line in the distance, which looked like a chaotic aurora stretching over a thousand kilometers. That was the radiance of spells continuously shining and forming the light of mana.
"Merlin, I keep feeling that something isn't right. Maybe the Undead are plotting something. Everything has been going too smoothly since we returned, so smoothly that it's unimaginably smooth.
"Those Undead Lords seem to have gone crazy, they are still fighting amongst themselves, and the infighting is getting more and more intense. More importantly, these guys aren't fighting over the Tainted Blood Lord's territory, but the territories outside the Tainted Blood Lord's territory.
According to the information we received, a rank 47 Undead Lord has already been killed in the infighting … "
Gandaph had a worried expression, because this situation was too abnormal. If these Undead cooperated well and every Undead Lord attacked the territories occupied by Noscent's allied forces, it would be very difficult for them to resist. If they followed the current strategy and slowly nibbled away at the territory, it would be a few dozen times more difficult.
If they attacked three or four times now, they would be able to advance over a hundred kilometers. In a month, they would be able to advance over a thousand kilometers. Moreover, they would be able to completely occupy and set up a steel fortress.
According to their previous estimates, advancing a thousand kilometers in three months was already the best result they could hope for. However, the current situation was several times smoother than the best case scenario they had predicted. This was somewhat abnormal …
Lin Yun shook his head, not caring too much about this. Lin Yun didn't need to hear Gandaph's words to know that this was definitely Ymir's doing.
That guy's hatred for the Mourning Bird could definitely drive him to do anything. Ever since he made Ymir release flames to personally burn the Mourning Bird, Ymir treated everything Lin Yun said as the truth.
He had made Ymir stir up trouble earlier in order to provoke infighting among the Undead. These Undead Overlords weren't the kind of lifeforms that could unite. They were all pursuing their own benefits, and it was impossible for them to unite. As long as an Undead Overlord provoked a war, it would be very easy for the war to spread.
Previously, he just didn't want a simple Ghoul Dwarf like Ymir to foolishly rush to the front line and get killed by Noscent's allied forces. After all, Ymir had helped him a lot. Everyone's standpoint and race were hostile, but it wasn't to the point where both sides had to be exterminated.
As long as this spatial passage was cut off, no one would be an eyesore in front of the other side, and there wouldn't be any contact between them.
He tricked Ymir into retreating and withdrawing from the struggle of the Tainted Blood Overlord. That way, no matter how he developed, he wouldn't have to face Noscent's allied forces. But he hadn't expected Ymir to be such a big help, stirring up the rear of the Undead army. The war in the rear was even fiercer than on the Tainted Blood Overlord's side.
It was also because of this that Noscent's allied forces were able to fight in close combat so quickly and smoothly.
Lin Yun originally didn't plan to tell others about Ymir, but seeing Gandaph's worried expression, it looked like he wanted to go to the Undead Plane to investigate the truth, so Lin Yun briefly explained the matter.
He used the power of the Dead Chapter to disguise himself as an Undead and tricked a Ghoul Overlord into inciting infighting among the Undead army.
Lin Yun didn't explain it too clearly, but Gandaph understood. He shook his head with a smile and didn't say anything.
After wandering in this spatial passage for a few days, he discovered that there was nothing he needed to do. Everything was operating normally, he only needed to prepare the activation of the hexagram array. There was no problem with that.
The most basic part of this large-scale hexagram array was the activation of all aspects. It only needed six Saint Alchemists to personally make a move and use their creation power to activate it.
