"All units are to head to the fourth spaceport to await orders. A faith-class carrier will bring you to the battlefield. This is a special mission. You will not receive any firepower support from space, and your enemies are the minions of the Abyss. The glory of His Majesty the Emperor will guide you to victory, but you have to deal with the thorns along the way. "
In the plaza near the spaceport's portal in the base of shadows, a team of valiant armored scorpions was walking towards the portal under Vega's command. The dual blades in the latter's hands collided in the air, producing a loud clanging sound, showing the irrepressible passion of the scorpion girl for battle. Over the past few days, Vega had been on the verge of a mental breakdown because of the children who had lost their way and the festive utensils they had to carry. The amount of helium-3 she had consumed to relieve her stress had exceeded 50% of the beneficial dose for her body.
Although the armored scorpions didn't mind carrying things, they obviously preferred to carry a railway gun or two-ton blade on their back.
Above the armored scorpions was the magical girl unit of the City of Shadows: the Ravens. These fellows flying around in the air were far more energetic than the inflexible armored scorpions. Although the Shiring Apostles' military discipline prevented them from fooling around, the fact that the Supreme Commander was an idiot and that they were immersed in the aura of immoral high-ranking officials of the Empire ever since they were born had caused these identical girls to play tricks. For example, they would mischievously flash to provoke the armored scorpions that were walking in a straight line.
At this moment, one could see the interaction between the Ravens and armored scorpions, two units that had been at odds with each other since the beginning of the Empire's history. When a Raven flashed down, an armored scorpion would whip its tail. The continuous flashing of the Ravens caused the entire square formation to crackle as though they were swatting flies. Although no one was injured, the sight of the scorpions' tails whipping around at supersonic speed was enough to make me break out in cold sweat.
Meanwhile, behind the armored scorpion formation were the newly inducted leader bees. These silent and eccentric soldiers almost never communicated with other apostles outside of missions, and their sentry duty during the carnival made all of the tourists treat them as city sculptures unique to the City of Shadows. Now, they finally found something more meaningful than sentry duty.
Based on Ares's battle prowess, we deduced that the infected "God's Servants" in Atlantis possessed at least the strength of the elite Empire soldiers. Furthermore, we couldn't rule out the possibility that there might be monsters at the level of a low-level Imperial Army officer. After all, they were mutated from the super warriors created by the Empire to fight against Visca. Every single one of them was the result of the unlucky expedition team's painstaking efforts. These man-made warriors and cannon fodder couldn't be mentioned in the same breath. Even if they couldn't be compared to people like Shallow shallow who had also developed her special ability, they should still be able to fight against the regular army of the Empire. Furthermore, with the enhancement of the power of the Abyss, perhaps even the armored scorpions would suffer damage during the battle. Under such a comprehensive consideration, it was necessary to let the Queen Bees with outstanding team support abilities participate in the battle.
"It's a battle within the atmosphere, and only elite soldiers are allowed to participate. However, it shouldn't be difficult. The armored scorpions are the best heroes in urban warfare," Sandora said softly as she looked at the armored scorpions that were about to complete their teleportation. "What makes me unhappy is that Atlantis has fallen into the Fantasy Village. In this way, our most advantageous space firepower is useless."
"Alright, the cannons and spaceships can't be used forever. Once the Eternal-grade cannons are fired, do we still want the Fantasy Village?"
"So, can I ask a question now?"
A hesitant voice interrupted the conversation between Sandora and me. When I turned my head, it turned out to be Boli, Lingmeng, and the other two girls standing behind me. The one who asked the question was Rhododendron Spp., who had just recovered from a serious illness, and her tail had returned to its soft and fluffy state after much difficulty.
The tense and orderly mobilization of the army, the rolling military information on the square projection, the fighter jets and magical girls whizzing past in the sky, and the mechanical scorpions rumbling forward on the ground. Such a scene of an impending war shocked the two monsters and the unscrupulous girl who had never seen such a situation before. In the name of Jingle, a group fight involving more than two hundred people in the Fantasy Village could be considered a historical disaster. If so many people were to pass by the shrine every day to cause trouble, would Jingle still be able to live?
"Are you guys … going to war?" The demon fox girl was pushed to the front by her master. Looking at the tens of thousands of violent people with surging energy around her, this docile fox girl felt immense pressure. "Didn't you say that you found the location of Fantasy Village?"
Did this fox think that we were going to invade?
"Err, actually, I have good news and bad news to tell you guys." I scratched my head and used the most classic f * cking sentence. In the end, even Yagyun Purple's face showed a fascinated expression.
"The good news is that an ancient colonization ship from the Empire found the coordinates of the Fantasy Village and landed in that world. In a few hours, we can use the ship's positioning system to send you guys home."
"Oh …" Yagyun Purple and Lingmeng nodded together.
"The bad news is … when the colonization ship landed, it smashed into the Fantasy Village … That's right, Blue, it was the thing that smashed you here."
One of the two monsters' expression instantly collapsed. "Huh!?"
Otherwise, I would have seen human nature at this moment. Lingmeng's reaction was really fast. While Yagyun Purple was still thinking about the information, Red-White grabbed my sleeve. "Wait! In other words, your ship destroyed the Fantasy Village, right? "
I looked expressionlessly at the bare-armpit witch whose eyes had almost turned into the shape of a gold coin. "The compensation, will, not, be, a cent, less!! So, you can peacefully board the ship now! "
After Bo Li and Lingmeng happily rushed to the teleportation gate, Yagyun Purple gave me a meaningful look. Suddenly, she covered her mouth with her fan and chuckled. "Retribution, my boss."
"Do you believe that I won't immediately renege on the debt and throw two genocidal weapons on the Fantasy Village to destroy the evidence?!"
Facing my deliberately fierce expression, Yagyun Purple smiled and said, "It's not good to scare girls. You definitely won't do that because the boss is a — good person."
Good person …
After the blonde girl in front of me pulled the apologetic fox away, I used thirty seconds to confirm a fact: I actually got Mother Purple to give me a card … What a valiant life experience!
I shook my head and threw the tragic memory of the good person card out of my head. Just as I pulled Sandora and Lin Xue and prepared to leave, an anxious voice shouted from afar, "Child's father!! Wait for me! "
I stiffly turned around to see Bubbles, who had two flags on his back that said, "Domination of Fantasy Village, Unparalleled in the Lily World." Clouds of dust billowed behind him as he charged over from several hundred meters away. Through our mental connection, I was able to read Bubbles' goal: to dominate Fantasy Village and then build a museum …
However, before I could make a move, Bubble lost his balance halfway and fell flat on his back. The little loli struggled in a flurry and just happened to see her big sister smiling at her.
She gave me an expression that said, "Don't worry, we can go to war" and waved her hand. Then, the big sister carried the resentful child's mother further away.
To all the female monsters of the Fantasy Village, my big sister just saved you from the misfortune of becoming a certain otaku loli's collection. Can we talk about the compensation for the demolition this time?
A loud and majestic roar came from afar, followed by the sound of flapping wings. I raised my head slightly and saw a huge golden twin-headed dragon streaking across the sky in my line of sight. Then, it dived into a spatial crack that appeared out of nowhere.
The five Protoss cops were also participating in this operation as spectators. Although I really hoped that I could just leave this troublesome matter to them, it was obvious that they were just here to join in the fun. Well, forget it. According to Sandora, this was at least the first time since the revival of the Empire, a coordinated operation with a God was taking place. As a historical event, I believed that those historians who were even more ridiculous than Liliana would write that a group of Gods smashing, looting, and burning down a tourist attraction was a magnificent and exciting one.
Bringing tens of thousands of fierce-looking heroic soldiers and an astonishing number of battle puppets from the dimensional garage, we stepped onto the transport mothership. In the short ten minutes of teleportation and void teleportation, Ares sat in his seat without saying a word. The slightly bulging muscles on his body showed that this strong warrior was ready for battle. Although I really wanted to tell him not to be so nervous so early, I didn't say anything in the end. This was a super soldier created by the old Empire for battle. Other than battle, there was probably nothing left in his mind.
"All personnel, attention. We are about to re-enter the Prime Material Plane. Alien barrier detected. There will be slight tremors during entry …"
A gentle broadcast from the mainframe of the transport ship sounded on the bridge of the transport ship. Then, there was a continuous tremor, which meant that they were about to enter another dimension. After the tremor subsided, the various tactical equipment in the bridge immediately activated according to protocol. The mainframe of the ship began to report the situation. "The ship has completed the teleportation. Now hovering in stealth mode. The image outside the ship is online."
"Hmm, Lin has to report to the nearby void node. She may arrive a little late. Now let's take a look at the situation on Monster Mountain."
"Mainframe understands."
The projection system in the center of the officer's platform switched from the complicated curve map and the space background to the Fantasy Village.
What a paradise. This was the first impression that came to my mind when I saw the green mountains and green water on the screen.
The Fantasy Village was isolated from the rest of the world. Ever since the Edo period, it had never been polluted by the outside world. In this pure land, everything was maintained in the ancient state of green mountains and clear waters. The first thing that appeared in the large holographic projection was an open grassland. I couldn't tell where it was from, but at least in my memory, such a pure grassland on Earth was on the verge of extinction. The projection's perspective kept changing along with the ship's scanner. Soon, we saw a shrine in the mountains, a house where monsters lived, a small village where humans lived, a small house in the forest that looked like a hermit's residence, a clear and rapid stream, a clear pond, and a lush forest …
Yagunzi, Ling Meng, and Lan couldn't help but breathe heavily when they saw the familiar scenery of their hometown in the projection. Even monsters who were said to have no human emotions had the same attachment to their hometown as humans. I heard Ling Meng's soft murmur, "Phew … It seems like the end of the world hasn't arrived yet …"
"But the Great Enchantment is about to be destroyed." Yagumzi's voice carried a rare sense of worry. "The Great Enchantment of the Fantasy Land relies on the boundary between reality and fantasy to separate imaginary things such as monsters and spells from the outside modern world. However, the so-called cross-world teleportation has already damaged part of the Enchantment. I'm going to strengthen it immediately!"
Knowing that I couldn't help her with such matters, I nodded. "The communication channel is open at any time. You can ask the Empire's technicians for help."
Yagunzi nodded. "Okay. I will leave Lan here. If there's anything, she can take my place." Then, she opened up a space beside her and went in.
There was a loud bang, and the blonde girl returned with a big red bump on her forehead.
"… The Imperial Army forbids any teleportation without landing on the ship."
"Oh …" Yagunzi glared at me angrily and ran out in a hurry.
"The entire Fantasy Village is fine. It seems that the abyss hasn't spread out. Now, let's take a look at the direction of the Monster Mountain."
The ship's mainframe immediately responded and switched the image.
A spectacular scene appeared in front of everyone.
The highest area of the Fantasy Village, the Monster Mountain, was currently shrouded in mist and darkness. Large clouds of blue smoke-like things shrouded the middle of the Monster Mountain like the clouds of a high mountain, dividing the mountain into two different parts. Although the lower part was shrouded in darkness, the color supplement system indicated that it was still a normal green color. The towering trees of the Fantasy Village and the primitive forest that the monsters were used to covered that area. Above this layer of mist, the plants were withered and all life was extinct. The yellow color that represented death covered one-third of the mountain.
Fortunately, this was only the yellowish-brown color of the withered plants, not the crazy blackish-red color of the abyss. Obviously, Atlantis hadn't leaked any abyss energy yet. These withered plants should have gradually died due to the radiation from the anti-gravity engine of the sky city. The high temperature and radiation that were fatal to plants shouldn't have been able to harm the monsters that weren't part of the Fantasy Village.
Of course, the falling Atlantis reflected in everyone's eyes. It was slightly east of the Monster Mountain. The bottom of the inverted cone-shaped floating continent was almost next to the peak of the Monster Mountain. The place where the two met was filled with lightning and thunder, but obviously, the two didn't directly collide.
Fortunately, they didn't directly come into contact with each other. After seeing them, we realized how huge the Atlantis floating city was. It was almost twice the size of the Monster Mountain. Although it was high up in the sky, the entire Monster Mountain and a large area at the foot of the mountain was plunged into darkness. If such a huge continent really landed on the ground … there wouldn't be a single person left alive in the Monster Mountain.
"Atlantis' anti-gravity system hasn't been shut down yet?" Sandora muttered to herself, puzzled. "Yes, the floating island's various barriers are still operating at maximum power, and the core area has a special layer of shielding. Our shipboard radar can't scan the specific situation at the point of impact. It seems that we can only send agents in. Also, prepare the landing craft. We will first contact the natives of the Fantasy Village. "
Ares opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but the warrior's code of conduct prevented him from questioning the commander's orders at this time. However, I took the initiative to explain, "The support for Atlantis will also be launched at the same time, but we can't launch an all-out attack now. There are many forms of pollution in the abyss. If the pollutant that hit Mount Olympus is an explosive source of pollution, rashly attacking it is highly likely that it will become a gate of the abyss."
It was enough to suffer the same setback once.
"Yes, the Atlanteans will hold the defensive line until the Gods return."
"No, you don't have to hold the defensive line," Sandora interrupted Ares' words. "I will send you back to Atlantis City. There will also be some Empire agents with you to inform your people to gradually evacuate the infected area and shrink to the last clean street. Once the agents have confirmed the impact object and ensured that it is under control, the Imperial Army will land on the floating island. That will be the time for you to counterattack."
Ares understood what Sandora meant. He immediately got up and saluted before walking out. The Atlantean warriors didn't lack advanced knowledge of the Imperial Army. He knew how to use the Legion Teleporter.
"Then, it's time for us to go down." Looking at the pitch-black mountain peak under the shadow of the Atlantean floating continent, I noticed many flashing light spots. It should be the activity of the monsters in the Fantasy Village. "Ling Meng, Lan, come with me. The others can wait on the mothership, especially Pandora and the two of you! Do you want to destroy Atlantis and the Monster Mountain at the same time? Stay on the ship and accompany Mercury Lamp! "
A short and fat Fighter-class small transport aircraft detached from the huge Fighter-class mothership and steadily entered the atmosphere. Without disturbing the Great Boli Enchantment, it rapidly approached the Monster Mountain. There was a reason why we chose to drive normally instead of using the Hyperspace Landing Pods. Yakumo Zi was currently strengthening the Great Boli Enchantment outside. In order to reduce the pressure on her, the Imperial Army had already restricted the warping of all vehicles (the warping of ordinary soldiers was not restricted due to the extremely small range of interference). During the process of descending, we were constantly gathering information about this mysterious space — a space that shared the same space as the outside world but had a completely different "concept." This reminded me of the virtual partition of a hard disk …
"Oh, we have already entered the lower atmosphere and are beginning to decelerate. Passengers, please fasten your seatbelts. They should be able to see us by now. I personally think that you should go down and greet them first." I knocked on the crystal panel in front of the seat and the scene on the ground immediately enlarged. The Fantasy Village was indeed a beautiful place. The moment we appeared, there was already a large group of young and beautiful girls gathered together. Let me give you a concentrated spell.
Boli Ling Meng immediately shouted, "Wahhh! Hurry up and dodge! Why are they hitting us! "
Nonsense! Look at the floating continent above us that can blot out the sun and sky! Who in the Fantasy Village isn't allergic to things that fall from the sky?
