Dragon Pass, Dragon Fortress.
It was the most important fortress on the west side of the Norland's defensive circle.
There was no other.
The convoy sped through the wilderness.
After passing the Satellite Town, there were fewer people on the road. It wasn't as clean as the inner circle. Just like the wilderness of Tiannan Province, the road was cracked, overgrown with weeds, and attacked by demonic beasts from time to time.
The towering steel fortress between the distant mountains was visible.
Inside the Floating Chariot, in addition to a member of the guards who acted as the driver, Yao Jun was also sitting inside.
The Floating Chariot flew ten meters above the ground. It was extremely fast and could ignore the terrain. Yao Jun looked at the scenery outside the window and was more and more surprised.
"… the Norland's defensive circle isn't as easy as it looks?"
"That's right." Yao Jun smiled bitterly, "The defensive circle is very large. It provides a relatively wide area for us humans. But because of this, the Norland is facing far more enemies than we imagined."
"Level 5 demonic waves occur almost every day at the border of the defensive circle. Disaster-Level demonic beasts also often appear.
But that's not the culprit that caused the defensive line to be in jeopardy. The key is the alien race. There are five different alien races around the Norland. All of them have transcendents. They can manipulate the demonic wave. Their transcendents can easily tear a gap in the defensive line. "
Tang Yu gradually understood from Yao Jun.
At the beginning of the doomsday, the Norland Legion responded quickly to rescue survivors and suppress the demonic wave.
It only took more than a month to establish the prototype of the defensive circle with the Base City as the core and eight Satellite Towns surrounding it.
After another two months, Norland had built many fortresses and outposts outside the satellite city … It was like a sieve, constantly weakening the incoming demon tide. Even if a few demons managed to enter the hinterland of the circle, they would not be able to cause a ripple.
The characteristics of the demonic beasts were that they instinctively attacked the transit station inside the circle when they weren't being controlled.
Layers of filtration created an extremely safe environment inside the defensive circle.
At that time, the Norland's defensive circle was already complete.
With powerful technological strength and a complete defensive system, even if it was a Level 5 demonic wave and disaster-level demonic beast, they wouldn't be afraid.
So the Norland began to expand.
They were preparing to snake out of the defensive circle and build shelters outside the stronghold.
However, at this time, the appearance of the Otherworldly Ones was a blow to the upper echelons of Norland.
Not only were the shelters under construction destroyed, but countless fortresses on the line of defense were also destroyed. At one point, they were pushed out of the satellite cities. Later, with Grandmaster Meng's sudden transcendence, he gained the ability to deal with the transcendents of the alien tribes. With the help of technological weapons, the enemy's advance was stopped.
"If it weren't for the fact that the Outsiders aren't united, the Norland's defenses might not have lasted until now." Yao Jun shook his head. "But every few days, the Transcendents of the alien races will lead the demon tide to attack. It's normal for one or two strongholds to be destroyed."
"It's different this time. Once the Coiling Dragon Fortress is destroyed, the demon tide will be able to march straight in and directly threaten the Zhenhe Satellite Town behind us. The western defense line will also be riddled with holes."
The frontline was in an emergency.
As a Transcendent, Meng Jingran had already rushed over.
Tang Yu thought about it and decided to take Elaine and Nancy to the Dragon Fortress to support them. Although the Norland and Tree Shade had competition, it was more of an interdependent relationship.
Because Norland was powerful, it had become a thorn in the side of the Outsiders.
And now, the Tree Shade was gradually emerging.
…
Two Floating Chariots galloped.
At this time, accompanied by a whistling sound, several fighter jets flew overhead.
Tang Yu wasn't surprised. The Norland was one of the few areas where fighter jets could still be seen. But the dispatch of the fighter jets also meant … the Dragon Fortress was in a very dangerous situation.
The Floating Chariot flew at full speed from the Ancestral Dragon's base to the Dragon Fortress. It only took twenty to thirty minutes.
Yao Jun showed his pass.
The few of them ascended the tens of meters high Dragon Fortress.
On both sides were towering and steep mountain walls. The Dragon Fortress stood in the middle of the mountain, guarding this important passage.
Directly in front of the fortress, the endless demon tide swarmed over. There were also countless flying demonic beasts flying over.
Anti-aircraft guns, machine guns, artillery … the roar was endless.
The entire fortress was like a meat grinder, constantly spewing flames, tearing the invading demonic beasts into pieces.
The most eye-catching thing was a huge cannon muzzle at the top of the fortress.
The diameter of the muzzle was more than ten meters. Countless source energy particles were visible to the naked eye converging towards the muzzle. The surrounding space was distorted, and lightning arcs flashed.
Even the flying demonic beasts didn't dare to come close and destroy it.
"What's that?"
"You can think of it as a super energy cannon." Yao Jun didn't hide it, "It's because of the existence of this weapon that the transcendent has scruples. But …"
He stated the limitations.
Ordinary energy cannon actually had the power to injure transcendent. However, the cannon's range was short, and the charging time was long. Often, when it was destroyed by a foreign transcendent, it couldn't continue to charge enough energy.
The super energy cannon, on the other hand, had a range of several kilometers.
Although it also had the disadvantage of charging time, it could continue to charge energy in advance to ensure that the cannon could be fired at a critical moment.
But …
While the muzzle continued to charge source energy, it was also constantly dissipating source energy.
Every second, hundreds of thousands of spirit stones were consumed.
With each shot, millions of Origin Crystals would be reduced to ashes.
The Norland didn't dare to stop the charging process, but they also didn't dare to fire the cannon. Even if the cannon could destroy hundreds of thousands of demonic beasts, as long as it was fired, it would lose its deterrence. The foreign transcendent who was secretly watching from outside the range no longer had any scruples.
… …
Tang Yu arrived at the headquarters of the Dragon Fortress.
Meng Jingran, who arrived a few minutes earlier, was discussing countermeasures with the general stationed at the fortress.
"… the enemy's transcendent won't attack easily. At present, the most difficult problem is the two 'Beehives' a few kilometers away."
The garrison general, Dai Mubai, opened a few blurry photos.
It was the situation a few kilometers away from the fortress. Below was still a dark demonic wave. Above the demonic wave, there were two huge red inverted pyramid-shaped objects tens of meters above the ground.
Although the photos were blurry, they could still see the densely packed holes on them.
Just like the Beehives.
"The Beehives are living creatures. They should also be a kind of demonic beast. They have the ability to continuously produce demonic beasts." Dai Mubai explained.
"Is there no limit?" Tang Yu asked.
"Maybe, but we don't know. The Beehives have only appeared a few times, and many of their abilities are still unknown." He paused and said, "Just now, I requested support from the fighter fleet to destroy the Beehives, but they failed."
Dai Mubai looked at the war-torn city wall, his voice trembling.
He turned his head, looked at Tang Yu, and suddenly bowed deeply, "I didn't have any hope at first, but you should be a transcendent, and Grandmaster Meng is also here. With the two of you working together, even if the foreign transcendent tried to stop us, we still have a chance to destroy the Beehives. I, Dai Mubai, am here …"
With only Meng Jingran, if they rashly went out of the city, they would inevitably be ambushed by the foreign transcendent, and there was even the risk of dying.
The two of them worked together to have a chance of success.
But the risk was also not small.
Tang Yu frowned and said after a while, "I'm sorry, I can't agree to your request."
Dai Mubai looked disappointed and didn't ask again.
Then he heard Tang Yu continued, "Instead of letting the foreign transcendent ambush us, it's better to do a big job and kill a few transcendent!"
