Li Mochen was shocked at first, but then he looked behind him with a gaze filled with surprise, curiosity, vigilance, and speculation.
Only three meters away from him stood a girl in a purple trench coat.
It was the latest style introduced by Catilo Apparel in recent years, and it made the girl's already fair and delicate skin look as translucent as porcelain and jade.
Her waterfall-like long blonde hair, curved eyebrows, plump cheeks, and full lips were all breathtaking.
Understanding, Li Mochen got up and bowed to the girl.
"Good day, Your Highness Goddess of Magic!"
The beautiful woman in front of him was the incarnation of the Goddess of Magic, Diana, who walked on earth.
"No need to be so polite, Mr. Wildenstein Jr. I think it won't be long before you become one of us. You're walking on the right path, and your steps are strong and firm. Among all the humans I've seen, you're the closest to the status of an ancient god. "
Diana raised her hand with goodwill, but then a strange look appeared in her eyes. "You're hostile toward me, aren't you? I can feel that you have a very strong sense of wariness. "
Of course, Li Mochen was very wary of her, but it wasn't because of Anthony.
In fact, the Goddess of Magic had already extended an olive branch to them during the war in Manhattan, showing her goodwill.
The reason why he was so wary was because of Diana's identity.
The oldest Goddess of Magic in this world was Hecate. She was also the Trigeminal Goddess of Opportunity, the Goddess of Magic, the Queen of Ghosts, and the Goddess of Hell. She was a very powerful Greek god, powerful enough to compete with Zeus.
Legend had it that she had a very close relationship with the Goddess of the Night, Nyx, the Supreme Trigeminal Goddess, and was very likely the latter's child.
Nyx was the ancient Goddess of the Night, representing the body of the night and personally creating the Netherworld. Hecate, on the other hand, controlled the night and the Netherworld.
In the divine war at the end of the Roman era, Hecate had fallen.
However, the few Goddesses of Magic that followed were all inextricably linked to Hecate.
Although the one in front of Li Mochen was the Goddess of Magic who rose to prominence in America, Li Mochen was still a Goddess of Magic. But before she became a goddess, she was of Italian descent. The Latin word for Diana means' bright as a white painting 'or' moon goddess. '
In Roman times, Hecate was a powerful goddess of the moon.
Apart from that, this person also controlled the three signs of opportunity, darkness, moon, waymark, ghosts, hell, magic, witchcraft, sorcery, and other divine powers.
Li Mochen had to be wary of her, not only because of Nyx, but also because the Goddess of Magic herself had mastered the power of fate, which was even one of her main priesthoods.
Of course, he did not show his fear in front of the goddess.
"Your Highness, it's a bit too much to say that I'm hostile. I'm just curious about your intentions. It's very special at this time, isn't it? "
Diana came to a realization and smiled apologetically. "I have indeed been presumptuous. I came very suddenly. But I can assure you that I came with goodwill toward you. "
She then asked in a soft voice, "Given that you are pressed for time, I'll get straight to the point. Mr. Wildenstein Jr., I wonder if you need some help? "
"Help?"
Li Mochen's expression froze slightly, and then he looked at the other side, a little speechless.
He already understood the Goddess of Magic's intentions in coming here. This person was obviously planning to help him in his hour of need and help him in this "moment of crisis" for the Wildenstein family.
Of course, the Goddess of Magic's help was not without a price. The other party wanted to form a good relationship with him and Kang Xiuli in order to seek to borrow his power at a certain point in the future; it was even possible that she intended to bring the entire Wildenstein family under her banner.
Li Mochen was not averse to this. Dwight Payton, Anthony Braden, and Bethel Constantine had all done the same thing. It was actually a good thing for him that the Goddess of Magic had such an idea.
The problem was —
"Your Highness, I and the Wildenstein family are grateful for your kindness. As for help — if we really need it, we will certainly ask Your Highness for help as soon as possible. Please be generous with your help. "
"Wow!"
Diana heard the implication in Li Mochen's words, and she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows in surprise. "It seems that Mr. Wildenstein Jr. is very confident. You think that the Wildenstein family can solve today's battle on their own without any external help, right? While minimizing casualties as much as possible? "
But judging from the current situation on the battlefield, she couldn't see how much chance the Wildenstein family had of winning for the time being.
In terms of top-level combat power, the Wildenstein family had indeed brought out a lineup that was not inferior to the National Association of Progressives. But at the grassroots level, the strength and foundation that the latter had brought out were strong enough to make people despair!
The appearance of demigods such as Victor Maxim, Alex Glans, Uhtred Demacia, Douglas Duncan, and Faust had indeed helped the Wildenstein family stabilize the situation on various fronts for a period of time. But with the appearance of a total of 46 demigods, the situation on the battlefield began to tilt in favor of the National Association of Progressives again.
If not for the Wildenstein family still maintaining the advantage of magic power, Li Mochen's Theocracy of Life and Death had also greatly increased the combat power of the demigod powerhouses on their side. Then the current balance of the war would definitely be in favor of the Wildenstein family.
"I believe that Mr. Wildenstein Jr. does indeed have the power to deal with this crisis. But if you overexert the power of your family because of this, wouldn't it not be worth it? "
She really had high hopes for Li Mochen, and it was precisely the appearance of the two primordial dragons that made her decide to follow Constantine's suggestion and lend a helping hand to the Wildenstein family.
But now, this young man named Andre Lee Wildenstein told her that it was not necessary at all.
"Your Highness, you sound a little incredulous?"
Li Mochen could not help but laugh. Just when he was about to say something. Sancher Virginia, who was leading the temporary staff group, suddenly stood up. "Found it! Sir, they divided the control equipment into two parts. One is hidden on the east side of the battlefield, coordinates X350, Y451! The other one is near the entrance of Highway 41, coordinates — "
Just as he spoke, a magic projection appeared in front of everyone at the same time. It was a topographic map of the entire battlefield. Two red dots appeared at the top, which were the coordinates of the two control equipment that Sancher Virginia had marked.
“BOSS！”
Michael Wood immediately turned around and asked Li Mochen for instructions.
After all, the 'Storm Troop' was a direct force established by Li Mochen. As the commander of the entire army, he had the authority to control the troops. But with Li Mochen present, Michael felt that it was necessary for him to consult Li Mochen's opinion, even if it was just a symbolic consultation.
Regardless of whether this boss agreed or not, Michael Wood had already made up his mind. This assault was imperative!
Li Mochen, on the other hand, held a hand seal with his right hand and silently calculated in his mind. With the help of the 'Divine Purple Gold Pagoda of Spiritual Luck' and the 'Mysterious Mystic Pivot Star Lock Secret Technique', he confirmed the validity of this information.
About one-thirtieth of a second later, a glimmer of light appeared in Li Mochen's eyes. "Okay!"
"Connect me to Lieutenant Colonel Sampson Brut and Major Thompson Adams. Tell them to attack the target immediately! Tell them that this is a joint order from me and the boss! "
Michael Wood then ordered the other side, "Relay the coordinates to Major General Raymond, the commander of the First Artillery Group. Tell him to fully cooperate with the Storm Troop and use artillery fire to clear the obstacles for them! In the meantime, all the Longsong Cannons are under his command! I'll contact Gudra and ask the cannons in Castle Wildenstein to provide help. I only ask for one thing. Try to blast the enemy in front of the Storm Troop into pieces! "
"Connect me to Ms. Linda Ruimore. I hope that the Ruimore clan can temporarily deploy some Mages to escort the Storm Troop. I don't want Sampson and the others to be disturbed by any magic power — "
At this time, Diana, the Goddess of Magic, was thinking. "The Storm Troop?"
"This is the most elite force in my hands. Their combined combat power can probably fight against 150 Legends head-on, and I mean group combat."
Li Mochen smiled and gestured at the same time. "Please sit down, Your Highness. If Your Highness doesn't mind, you might as well stay here for a while. I think the next part of the battle is the most intuitive from here. I think the facts in front of us will always be more convincing than words. "
Diana did not refuse. She directly sat down next to Li Mochen and looked forward with great interest.
"Can you explain it to me? André, what kind of existence is the Storm Troop under your command? "
"Your Highness should have heard of the Prosthetic Armor, right?"
Li Mochen casually explained. "Many arms companies in America are researching it. More than a month ago, my company Rising Sun Biopharmaceutical developed a perfect Prosthetic Armor and put it into initial production. The 'Storm Force' is an elite force equipped with our Warrior Type A biological armor and the Land Combat Magic Armor of the Light & Magic Industry. All the members of the 'Storm Force' are carefully selected from the Xuri Construction Group and the Wildunstan Group. "
"Sounds good?"
Diana's Divine Will had already sensed the so-called 'Storm Troop'. Just in front of the Holy Stone Fortress, there were two small, heavily armed troops marching forward through the trench.
All of them were Land Combat Magic Armors and above. There were more than 20 War Demons and five to six Legends, which was very similar to what Li Mochen described.
But the situation of these two troops made Diana even more curious.
"But I think their strength should be between Level 15 and Level 16? André, are you sure their strength can fight against 150 Legends, and not one-tenth of this number? The strength of the Legendary Masters is not comparable to that of the high-level Legends. They can easily fight against a group of Legends. "
Even if it was a Quasi-Legendary Master, it would take five to seven people to be able to fight against a low-level Legend.
On the other hand, a Quasi-Legendary Mana Professional would usually require more than 15 Level-15 Mana Professionals to work together in order to defeat him. The combat strength between them was like a huge gap between heaven and earth.
But Diana's voice stopped abruptly, because her eyes were firmly attracted by the scene in front of her.
Just as they were talking, the two Storm Troops under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Sampson Brut and Major Thompson Adams had already broken into the enemy's formation under the cover of artillery fire.
The scene was extremely shocking, which could be seen from the magic image projected in the command room by the two Legendary Masters. This army of 450 people was advancing forward with a sweeping momentum.
In front of them, the heavy tanks, armored vehicles, Magic Armors, Beast Blood Warriors, and the well-equipped Lawless Ones were either torn to shreds by the artillery fire from all directions, or riddled with holes by the firearms of the Storm Troops.
Diana soon found that she had somewhat underestimated the overall combat strength of the Storm Troops. The combat strength of all their members was at least Level-17, and one-third of them were Level-18.
This force was already quite strong, and the key was that they were extremely well-coordinated, almost flawless. Their marksmanship was also quite good, and in the process of the assault, not a single bullet was wasted.
When these people clenched their fists and rushed forward, their momentum was like an indestructible bulldozer, crushing all resistance to the ground.
Diana saw with her own eyes that five Legendary Masters who tried to join forces to stop them were easily blown up by the Storm Troops with only 11 Warriors and 367 magic bullets!
They seemed to be able to communicate with each other and work together. Some were responsible for suppressing fire, while others were responsible for sniping. Every bullet had a purpose. The Legendary Masters were overwhelmed, and under the pressure of the stream of bullets, they succumbed one after another.
Such a scene not only shocked the Goddess of Magic, but even Li Mochen slightly raised his eyebrows in surprise.
He knew that the Warrior Type-A Prosthetic Armor was an auxiliary combat system optimized with the help of the Mohrans' technology, especially the bioelectric sensing technology, which could help the host gain a huge advantage in group combat.
But before this, Li Mochen had not seen a combat exercise of this scale. Before mass production, the Rising Sun Biopharmaceutical Company was limited by conditions, and the scale of the group combat experiment was at most less than seven people.
It seemed that Gu Hong's estimation was still a little conservative — the combined attack of the two Storm Troops could be said to be more powerful than he had imagined.
"I take back what I said, they are indeed very powerful! Very powerful — "
Diana seemed to think that the magic projection of the two Legendary Mages was not clear enough. With a wave of her hand, she projected nine magic projections in a row in the command center.
The image displayed on the screen was much clearer and more intuitive. From all angles, the battle between the two Storm Troops was being observed.
"I want to know, can you build an elite force like the Storm Troops on a large scale? And your Warrior Type-A Prosthetic Armor, how are their performance? What is the current production rate? What is the cost? "
Li Mochen was a little surprised. He did not expect the Goddess to be interested in this kind of thing. Was it because of the Church of the Goddess of Magic?
"The Storm Troops are special. They have their current combat power, to a large extent, because of the magic armor produced by the Light and Magic Industry. But Goddess, you should know how rare the production of the magic armor is. It is said that the current annual production rate is less than 1,700 units. Due to the limitations of materials, they have been unable to expand the production. "
"The Warrior Type-A Prosthetic Armor itself can only give ordinary people the combat power of Level-12, and a Level-12 professional the combat power of Level-15. Its current cost is about one-third of the magic armor. As the production volume increases, it can be further diluted. "
Li Mochen almost copied what Gu Hong said to him. "As for the production of the Prosthetic Armor, it is also limited by the raw materials. But my chief scientific consultant told me that within a year at most, the monthly production rate of the Warrior Type-A Prosthetic Armor can reach 15,000 units. Because it is a biological Prosthetic, its composition and structure are obtained through breeding, so our source of materials is relatively sufficient, and there is no obstacle that we cannot overcome for the time being — "
"15,000 units? You are starting a revolution, Mr. Wildenstein Jr.! I think all the military organizations in America will go crazy for it. "
A strange light flashed in Diana's eyes. "Since there is a Type-A, there must be a Type-B and Type-C, and an advanced version of the warrior model, right?"
"Currently, there are four levels of Knight, Armored Knight, Earth Knight, and Sky Knight, corresponding to Level-13, Level-15, Level-17, and Level-19. The Type-B is the archer version, more professional than the Type-A in shooting ability. The Type-C is the mage version. Currently, they are all under development — "
Li Mochen answered absent-mindedly, because the first test of the Storm Troop was about to come.
The commander of the National Association of Progressives had already discovered their purpose and threat, and was mobilizing forces to stop them. Including 23 legendary warriors, 200 Outlaws, and 400 Beast Blood Warriors, they were concentrated in front of Sampson Brut's A Battalion of the Storm Troop. They also had more than two battalions as helpers. Thompson Adams' side was also under intense attack, but the enemy's scale was smaller. There were only 14 Legendary Warriors and 120 Extra-Legal Ones. However, they had more Beast Blood Warriors, which amounted to 700.
The two sniping battles were fierce at the beginning. In terms of long-range firepower, Sampson Brut's Prosthetic Warriors were completely at a disadvantage. However, after the battle, the ratio of casualties on both sides was overwhelmingly in favor of Xuri Construction.
The long-range accurate shooting of the Storm Troop caused huge casualties on the opposite side from the very beginning. Nearly 500 of the two battalions were killed in less than a minute. Most of them were killed by the guns of the Storm Troop as soon as they showed their heads.
This was also related to the fact that they did not have a stable bunker. The National Association of Progressives was in a state of attack and never planned to build fortifications. The surprise attack of the Storm Troop also caught them off guard.
The artillery and magic cover provided by Xuri Construction allowed all the Prosthetic Warriors to focus more on shooting.
After suppressing the conventional forces, the casualties of the Outlaws and Beast Blood Warriors on the opposite side also rose sharply. The latter continued to launch attacks.
However, the Storm Troop under Sampson Brut's control had created an invisible line of death 100 meters in front of them. Two hundred Beast Blood Warriors had fallen at this distance. Correspondingly, the casualties of the Prosthetic Warriors were very few. Under the care of Li Mochen's Theocracy of Life, so far only three Prosthetic Warriors had died.
But what was more surprising were the legendary warriors on the opposite side. At this time, most of these legendary professions were under the pressure of the Storm Troop's firepower. In less than three minutes, five legendary professions were killed or wounded by the Storm Troop's bullets.
Although there were also powerful melee legendary professions who rushed into the Storm Troop's formation, the Storm Troop's melee combat ability seemed to be better than their marksmanship.
Under Sampson Brutus's command, it usually took less than half a minute to settle the matter, and not even the slightest ripple could be seen.
At the same time, on the 15th floor of the Mysterious Illusion Magic Tower, many senior officials here were also discussing this sudden change on the battlefield.
"The Wildenstein family has such a troop? All of them are above level 17? "
"Did you see that? Those legendary professions look extra clumsy in front of them. "
"Indeed! Their cooperative combat ability is very strong. The National Association of Progressives would not be able to stop them without hundreds of legendary professions. "
"Wow, it seems that the situation is going to be reversed, everyone!"
"Strange, it's really strange! Can the tacit understanding of human beings reach this level? There were hundreds of them, but it was as if they were a single person, a single entity. The intelligent technology of the Light and Magic Industries has reached this level? "
"This is not the combat assistance system of the Alchemy Armor itself. I know them well. There must be another reason."
At this time, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Clyde Brown, was already shining brightly. He was looking at the magic projection released by the three magicians. His eyes were focused, and he refused to look away for a moment.
In fact, this scene in front of General Clyde Brown was the reason why he, the Chief of Staff of the entire army, came to watch the battle in person today.
"Daniel, is this the Storm Troop you mentioned, the Xuri Construction's Storm Troop?"
"It should be. All level-12 magic professions, equipped with Warrior Type A Prosthetic Armor and Alchemy Magic Armor."
Lieutenant General Daniel Boone slightly raised the corner of his mouth. He was also very satisfied with the situation in front of him. "I think you should feel that this trip is worthwhile, right? Clyde! In fact, today's scene is a bit unexpected. I have seen the Warrior Type A Prosthetic Armor test before, but they are not as powerful as they are now. "
"Of course! I am very surprised now. Their overall combat effectiveness can face 180 to 220 legends head-on! This is undoubtedly a military revolution, a revolution that can subvert all existing military forces. "
General Clyde Brown's voice was even a bit shaky. Then he asked the same question as the Goddess of Magic, "How is their performance? What is the current production rate? What kind of cost? Can it be built on a large scale? "
"As for performance, I suggest you ask Mr. Wildenstein Jr. in person after the battle. As for the cost, it is only 5.7 million gold duns, which is equivalent to one-third of the Alchemy Armor. "
Lieutenant General Daniel Boone responded with a smile. "Mr. Wildenstein Jr. personally promised me that as long as the Ministry of Defense provides full support and enough orders, he can expand the production line to more than 15,000 pieces per month! As for the Storm Troop, it is limited by the production of the Alchemy Magic Armor. The second production line of the Light and Magic Industry is still far away. "
"That is because there is not enough profit to drive it! The Alchemy Magic Armor is undoubtedly powerful, but its price-performance ratio is not as good as those magic equipment. I think the Ministry of Defense should also pay appropriate attention to the Magic Armor they produce. "
General Clyde Brown took a deep breath. "All in all, I hope to see a large-scale Prosthetic Force appear in the army and the Marine Corps as soon as possible. We need to understand its performance and shortcomings through actual combat as soon as possible."
The Minister of Defense next to him raised his eyebrows. "Then what about the 'Beast Blood Warrior' project of the National Association of Progressives?"
"Come on, you cunning old man, do you really want me to say it myself?"
General Clyde Brown couldn't help but smile, then he cursed in a low voice, "To hell with this plan! Their inhumane experiments have left the military in a terrible state. With better choices, who would care about those things that are neither human nor ghost? "
Kelsey Lewis, the director of the CIB Central Intelligence Agency, who was sitting not far away, was already pale.
But he was not in the mood to explain anything. At this time, the magic image in front of him changed again.
"It has breakthrough-"
"This is bad. The Beast Blood Manipulation Device of the National Association of Progressives is not far ahead, right? Without the Beast Blood Warriors to restrain them, the two ancient dragons will be extremely powerful. "
