The entire fortress is circular in shape. The outer wall is more than 100 meters high and more than 20 meters wide. Some places in the middle are hollow, which can be stuffed with people. They can then attack the attacking beasts through the small holes in the wall.
Due to the thickness of the wall, there are various heavy weapons installed on top of it. Whether it's against the air or the ground, they have absolute destructive power.
In addition, there is an airport inside the fortress. If they encounter an attack, the aircrafts parked in the airport can immediately take off to fight the enemy.
From these points of view, the safety factor of this fortress is very high. In this forest, they have the power to protect themselves.
However, the humans who came to the Old Land don't just need to resist those terrifying beasts. The omnipresent demonic sounds are the most troublesome thing for them.
Therefore, the soldiers in this forest are all wearing power suits. This kind of suit has a similar function as an exoskeleton, but it's more advanced and more effective.
You don't need to control or adjust this suit. It will automatically receive commands from your muscles, calculate the movement you want to make according to the subtle changes in your muscles, then help you jump or dodge.
The most important role of this kind of power suit in the Old Land is to help the Federation isolate the demonic sounds to a certain extent.
Because of the existence of power suits, the Federation can carry hundreds of kilograms of oxygen cylinders at will without feeling tired.
The existence of oxygen cylinders can allow the Federation to wear a glass cover to isolate the demonic sounds for several days, even up to ten days, giving them the ability to march in the forest for a long time.
Because of the power suits, the daily journey of these humans would reach an astonishing number under the rapid march.
Just like what Fang Yun observed, through the cameras everywhere in the base, he saw rows of soldiers wearing power suits and round transparent glass covers on their heads constantly patrolling the area.
"Boom!
Boom! "Suddenly, a closed-rotor combat transport helicopter flew over from the World Tree. This kind of helicopter was already invented by the Federation in the Blue Planet. It's especially suitable for flying in the forest.
The propellers on both sides replaced the huge propellers above their heads. Above the propellers on both sides, there is also a protective device similar to an electric fan cover, to prevent the propellers from hitting the branches.
After the helicopter landed at the airport, specialized staff immediately ran over and took out a large number of roots from inside.
Fang Yun watched all this through the camera, then turned his gaze to other places.
Suddenly, a conference room appeared in his field of vision.
A meeting was being held in the conference room. The conference table was already full of people. Fang Yun listened to the speakers and microphones in the conference room.
The first thing that needed to be explained was the situation of the people in the conference room. The one sitting at the head of the table was a middle-aged man with a flattop haircut. He was very burly, which made his head look a little small. From the color of his skin, he was white, but his skin was a little tanned.
He was wearing a camouflage uniform, and his eyes were resolute as he looked at a middle-aged man in front of him. This man wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and his skin was fair. He didn't look like a soldier, but more like a person who lived like a prince.
"Chief Myers, I think we need to discuss when to enter the Forbidden Zone to rescue our company's research team. They have been there for ten days."
The gold-rimmed glasses man anxiously asked the burly middle-aged man in front of him.
"Mr. Lee."
Myers said to the gold-rimmed glasses man. "I can understand your feelings, but I also hope that you can understand us. There is no corresponding order from above for the time being. I have no right to send people there at all, even if we are only 100 kilometers away from that demonic place!"
For the current Blue Planet Federation, 100 kilometers is a very short distance.
"But our company's research team responded to your call, but now we can't contact our people. When we need your help, you turn a blind eye."
"Maybe I should report this matter to my boss and let him communicate with your boss."
"No, Lee Sheng."
Myers pondered for a moment, then said. "How about this, I will send a team of 50 people to protect you in the Forbidden Zone?"
"The situation over there is mainly because of those damn demonic sounds. I will give you the best equipment and sturgeon oil."
"Lee Sheng, I'm sorry, my authority only ends here."
Lee Sheng sat back in his seat, frowning. He also knew that although Myers is the highest officer here, it is completely impossible for him to send an army into the Forbidden Zone.
If his superiors know this news, they will definitely kill him.
The Forbidden Zone has now been lifted, but no army has yet to go to that continent. They just called some research teams to go to that continent to explore the way.
Coincidentally, after learning this news, their company's research team also began to enter that area.
At first, the agreement was that the research team would only be active in the vicinity of about 30 kilometers, and then send a message with a signal flare every three days.
However, it has been a week since the last time their research team sent a signal flare. Obviously, they have lost contact with the research team.
Lee Sheng came to the Black Iron Fortress, hoping that Myers can help them enter the Forbidden Zone to find their company's research team, but Myers refused.
Losing contact for a week, it is very likely that they have already died inside. Moreover, Myers knows the situation there better than anyone. If they send people there, it is very likely that they will also die.
After many considerations, Miller rejected Lee Sheng's request. However, Lee Sheng's background wasn't small. Even Miller had to be polite. Moreover, according to Lee Sheng, there was an important person in the research team from his company.
Myers was cursing internally. It wasn't him who called the research team to enter the Forbidden Zone. It was those old guys at the top, but now he has to take the blame.
"Sir Myers, when will we start?"
Lee Sheng took off his glasses and rubbed his eyebrows, then suddenly looked at Myers.
… …
"The current Federation has already started to explore the Forbidden Zone."
Fang Yun couldn't help but be surprised. "Why are they suddenly so interested in the Forbidden Zone?"
In the past, although the Federation was curious about the Forbidden Zone, they were more afraid of it, so they didn't have the intention to explore it for the time being.
Who would have thought that in the short span of five years, they would actually begin to explore the forbidden area?
Fang Yun entered the information system of the "Black Iron Fortress", then carefully searched for the corresponding information. After searching for a while, he really found the relevant information.
After browsing this information, he couldn't help but be even more surprised.
The reason why the Federation couldn't wait to explore the Forbidden Zone is that they got some information from the World Tree.
