"Hurry up! Hurry up!"
"The arrangement must be completed within three minutes!"
Teams of garrison corps members wearing standard combat uniforms with the World Tree badge on their chests and carrying a unified intermediate space backpack jumped off from several floating personnel carriers and quickly moved through the wilderness.
The rugged ground, dense bushes, and flourishing woods did not pose any obstacles to them. Like apes, they leaped between the trunks and soon arrived at their destination.
Under the command of the squad leaders, the Garrison Corps hunters opened their space backpacks and took out various items to set up defensive facilities.
Not far away.
More than a dozen awakened Earth ability users joined hands and raised their staffs high. An earthy yellow light bloomed from the top of the staff. In an instant, the ground trembled violently. Within a few hundred meters in front of them, trees of 20 to 30 meters tall fell. The ground seemed to have turned into quicksand at this moment, swallowing everything.
Advanced Earth Spell "Quicksand Field"!
This time, it was not used to kill the enemy.
The quicksand lasted for more than ten seconds and gradually expanded. Within a range of more than a thousand meters, the trees were cleared, and the central part of the ground was sunken, but the periphery was gradually bulging.
After a few breaths.
The quicksand had solidified into hard soil and stones. What appeared in front of them was a small basin. The stone walls around the basin were hard and smooth.
"Quicksand Field" was a large-scale killing and trapping spell from the Holy City. After modification, the garrison corps preferred to use it to change the terrain, especially when setting up a defensive line.
In a sense, it could also be classified as an architectural spell.
After the basin terrain was formed, the members of the garrison corps teams quickly stepped forward and inserted pillars into the soil and stones, forming a semicircle, wrapping the basin.
The pillars made a rustling sound, and soon, a blue-purple thunder shield spread along the pillars, connecting into a piece. Only on the opposite side of the basin, facing the direction of the floating city, there was a gap.
Behind them were temporary walls, portable weapons, and so on. In the hands of the garrison corps members, they dexterously changed shape and quickly arranged on the defensive line.
Spirit Crystal Cannons, Rune Firearms, and so on, the black muzzles were pointed at the center of the basin.
From the time they received the task, boarded the floating personnel carriers, and set up the defensive line … it was done quickly and orderly. It only took two and a half minutes to complete the layout of a defensive line.
The commander smiled and injected his mental power into the communication crystal ball to report the situation.
Hundreds of meters away from the defensive line was a two-way four-lane highway. After the completion of the Tree Shade defense circle, most of the roads were repaired and reopened. There were many hunters and caravans coming and going every day.
Coincidentally, there was a transit station on the side of the road.
It was close to noon, and there weren't many people coming and going. However, there were still many survivors in the transit station.
The transit station in the hinterland did not have a city wall. Many sharp-eyed survivors noticed the defense line that was quickly set up in the distance and exclaimed.
There were also members of the Garrison Regiment in the transit station, but they were just second-line soldiers. They had not received the message yet, so they were also at a loss. They could only follow the instructions in the Regiment Manual to maintain order and organize the survivors to evacuate in the opposite direction. After all, this was a transit station, not a fortress.
One second.
Five seconds.
Ten seconds passed.
There was no movement coming from afar. He could only vaguely see the army's awakened ones standing tall and straight.
Suddenly.
"Look at the sky, there's red mist!"
One of the hunters cried out in alarm.
They were all too familiar with the red mist! Everyone was familiar with it!
"Doesn't the red mist only appear near the Abyssal Chasm? Wait … "
"Could it be that our Tree Shade City predicted the appearance of the Abyssal Chasm? But I've never heard of anyone who could predict it in advance … "
Before his voice fell,
The red mist floating in the sky suddenly became thicker, as if it was about to condense into drops of blood.
Boom!
The ground suddenly cracked open, and dark red lines spread out.
"Roar!"
Demonic beasts rushed out of the crack. As soon as they emerged, they were smashed by rune bullets.
The members of the Garrison Regiment were excited!
The City Lord really predicted the Abyssal Chasm. Even the range was extremely accurate. The basin created by the earth ability user just happened to include the Abyssal Chasm.
With the advantage of the terrain and defensive line, hundreds of Garrison Regiment hunters steadily blocked the demonic beast's offensive.
At this time.
A huge pseudo-transcendent demonic beast with wings on its back flapped its wings and flew out.
Its scarlet eyes stared at the defensive line below, spitting black flames from its mouth. The outermost thunder shield made a sizzling sound under the impact of the black flames.
The commander's expression didn't change. He just said lightly, "Begin the luring plan."
On the other side.
In the direction of the floating island.
Several honeycomb-shaped rune tools flew into the sky, and invisible waves spread far away.
This was a special kind of "wave" that imitated a high-purity human breath. It was fatally attractive to demonic beasts.
A few months ago, not long after the doomsday broke out, Dr. Zheng developed an item that could lure demonic beasts. With the current scientific research ability of the Tree Shade, it was very simple to make similar tools, and the effect was even greater.
The invisible waves spread very quickly. The pseudo-transcendent demonic beast with wings on its back, which was still eating the garrison members on the ground, turned around and flew away as if it smelled the most delicious delicacy.
At the same time, many demonic beasts emerged from the Abyssal Chasm.
Some of them were sniped by the hunters on the rear defensive line to prevent the demonic beasts from spreading. Some flying demonic beasts were deliberately let go and fluttered towards the floating island.
…
On the floating island.
Tang Yu closed his eyes, but in fact, he had a god's view and full control.
The Abyssal Chasm that appeared was of a very high level, nearly 400 meters in length. In just a few minutes, five disaster-level demonic beasts had emerged.
This was a good thing. The stronger the demonic beasts, the more they could test if there were any loopholes in the 'space belt'.
A few kilometers away from the Abyssal Chasm had been cordoned off.
In addition to a 500-man regiment stationed near the Abyssal Chasm, there were also many members of the garrison scattered around to clean up the spread of demonic beasts.
He always observed the territory map to prevent the spread of demonic beasts. He couldn't ruin the reputation of the Tree Shade's defense circle for an experiment.
One by one, the flying demonic beasts approached the floating island. This time, there was no need to rely on tools to attract them. In the Tree Shade City, two to three million permanent residents gathered together. The smell of humans filled the air, and the demonic beasts rushed forward with red eyes.
As far as the eye could see, the sky was blotted out.
He held back the idea of firing the defensive buildings and let the flying demonic beasts approach. Soon, he saw the demonic beasts seemed to be stuck in a quagmire. Although their movements were slow, it seemed that no matter how hard they flapped their wings, they couldn't get close to the island.
This scene also attracted a lot of survivors to watch.
In the safest floating island, even if this scene was like a natural disaster, no one was worried. Instead, some vendors pulled a cart to the edge of the island, selling melon seeds and drinks.
The Abyssal Chasm was still pouring out of the demonic beasts.
Suddenly.
The red mist in the sky shrank, and a large number of demonic beasts gushing out was interrupted. A few seconds later, as the red mist gushed out again, several ugly and strange figures appeared above the crack.
Without wings, they stood quietly in the air.
Their extraordinary aura was fully revealed.
The strange figure at the front looked contemptuously at the garrison regiment not far away, and then turned his head to look into the distance.
In the direction of the floating island.
