Black Death Continent, Forgotten River Ruins, near Zero Area.
In the distance, a storm was raging in the space, and a huge tornado was twisting and connecting to the black vortex in the sky. From time to time, several rays of lightning fell, making a dull roar.
Strong air currents rushed through the ruins, sending sand and rocks flying everywhere, and smoke and dust flying.
A few kilometers ahead is the restricted area of life, a place where even the legendary strong men dare not set foot easily.
There are only trembling steel bars and rolling stones here, as well as the ruins of civilization that are gradually being sucked into the Zero Zone and gradually disappearing.
However, today is an unusual day.
A figure appeared in the ruins, and the wild air blew the gray cloth robes flying.
The visitor has a slender figure, and her exquisite curves are vaguely visible under the slightly loose robe. It is not difficult to tell that she is a woman.
If you look at her body shape alone, she looks a bit weak, as if she will be blown away by the strong wind at any time. But her steps were unusually steady. That calmness and calmness were in sharp contrast to her thin body. The seemingly delicate body is of great weight, leaving deep footprints wherever it goes.
"Wow..."
The hood was lifted, and the long hair spread out like a waterfall, revealing a pair of shining star eyes from the flying hair.
She has a young and beautiful face, about eighteen or nineteen years old.
The girl looked around and said as if to herself: "This is it."
Then there was the sound of large tracks scraping the ground behind him. Not long after, a group of crawler automatic robots appeared in sight.
It is very unreasonable to have so many autonomous robots in inaccessible places. But no one will see it. The reconnaissance network composed of dozens of satellites in the sky can clearly detect the surrounding plants and trees.
The girl pointed to the open space ahead, and a large group of robots dragged a cylindrical metal object.
The front end of this object is a drill bit, and the back end is flat and thick. The robot cut the bundled cables and fiddled with it to raise it vertically.
The girl's body sank slightly, and then with a "boom", she crushed the ground and rose into the sky. He spun his body in mid-air and plummeted downwards. The whistle sounded at the same time, and several streams of steam spurted out from behind his shoulders. He put his feet together and kicked towards the tail of the tube.
Only a muffled sound was heard, and the tube was half submerged into the ground. The girl jumped up again and stepped on it with both feet, like a hammer hitting a nail, smashing the entire tube into the soil.
"Turn on!"
Along with the girl's voice, circles of blue light lit up at the end of the tube.
"Buzz!"
It seemed that an engine was started, and the cylinder began to rotate faster and faster. The earth, sand and gravel spurted upward and drilled into the ground.
After about ten minutes, the tube drilled tens of meters underground.
"Okay, here it is."
Then there was a flash of fire, and the shell at the end of the tube exploded, and blood-like liquid flowed out and spread in the gaps in the soil. Before long, the red liquid condensed into a dark red hard object, like roots underground.
"Delivery completed!"
"Connecting to the mothership..."
"Connection successful, spatial coordinates are being sent!"
At the same time, in the cold and dark undercurrent of time and space, several stars flickered on and off.
Taking a closer look, it turned out to be a huge starship. It is several kilometers long and cannot be seen from end to end, like a huge island drifting in the darkness.
In the bridge where the aviation lights flashed, there were several rows of mechanical maids wearing lace skirts.
The lace skirts come in five colors: red, blue, yellow, black, and white, which seem to represent different types of work or status.
What's strange is that the command seat facing all the mechanical maids is empty.
"The second beacon is lit!"
"The destination coordinates are switching..."
"Switching completed!"
"Twenty-two point five percent of the ship's energy, totaling 375.9876345 trillion units."
"Calculating arrival plan..."
"The plan calculation is completed."
"Option one, abandon the mothership and teleport all individuals to coordinates."
"Without the protection of the mothership, the risk coefficient is 99% and the survival coefficient is 75%."
"Option two, continue to collect energy until the shipboard energy exceeds 65%, and the entire ship will jump to the coordinate point."
"After the mothership jumps, the energy drops to the danger level, the danger coefficient is 85%, and the survival coefficient is 80%."
"Option three, continue to collect energy until the shipboard energy exceeds 95%, and the entire ship jumps to the coordinate point."
"The mothership has plenty of energy after the jump, with a risk factor of 20% and a survival factor of 98%."
"Start cluster computing voting..."
"Didi, beep, beep, beep..."
The eyes of the mechanical maid in the bridge glowed with colorful light and were constantly changing.
After a long time, a female mechanical synthesized voice sounded.
"The cluster computing vote was successful."
"Plan 2.5, continue to collect energy until the mothership's onboard energy exceeds 85%..."
"The current mission has been changed. Search for the nearest energy body."
Countless bright green rays of light shot out from the ship and disappeared into the endless darkness.
A few minutes later, the mechanically synthesized female voice sounded again.
"Energy body discovered, red lizard mutant creature, energy level, five point five."
All the beams went out, leaving only one.
The huge starship slowly turned around, and the beam of light flew away.
In the darkness, it seemed that the passage of time could not be felt. I don’t know how long it took, but a crimson light group appeared in front of me.
"Close to target."
"Roar!"
In an instant, huge pressure surged in along with high-temperature rays, dyeing the entire darkness red.
"The annihilation cannon has been charged!"
"emission!"
In an instant, the entire world was covered in white light.
A dazzling beam of light shot out from the front of the starship, and indescribable power radiated outward, setting off a huge energy storm that blew away all the floating debris and corpses around it.
The next second, the incandescent beam collided with the red pillar of fire. At the moment of contact, the entire space was distorted.
"boom!"
The starship's main gun seemed to be more superior, the beam penetrated the pillar of fire and hit the target with devastating power.
A huge and painful scream sounded in the darkness, and then the red light group quickly became smaller.
"The target is fleeing. Do you want to pursue him?"
"The ship's energy is 15%, give up the pursuit!"
"The giant dragon's lair was discovered. There are strong energy fluctuations inside. It is expected to absorb all the energy and replenish the ship's energy to 30%..."
At the same time that the mysterious mutated lizard creature was injured, Sarode Maris, who was resting on the throne with his eyes closed, suddenly woke up.
His eyes were wide open, and his face with a thick beard was extremely ferocious.
"Novasad!"
The Red Dragon Grand Duke roared out involuntarily, and then his face turned extremely pale.
The royal hall fell into a deathly silence, and large beads of cold sweat were sliding down Salode's broad forehead.
Even when he learned that his younger brother had been killed by the Dabichi, and that Crow City had been burned to rubble, he had never lost his composure like this. It can even be said that this is the first time since he was born that he has lost his temper like this.
Because at that moment, he felt that he had lost contact with Novasad, the red dragon who had signed a contract with the Maris family for generations.
He is the symbol of the Red Dragon Principality and the patron saint of the Maris family.
Losing Novasad meant that Salode immediately fell from the small king level to the great lord level.
Just like other families that have signed contracts with powerful beings in the undercurrent of time and space, Sarode is not a true little king and does not truly master the power of the void. Instead, he relies on the power of false gods to directly rise to the top.
Once the false god is lost, the channel for absorbing void spiritual energy will be closed, and the realm will decline.
The sudden sudden change brought the strength of the Maris family to the freezing point in history. How could he not be terrified?
"Did he encounter some trouble and temporarily cut off contact?"
"Or, disappear completely..."
The Red Dragon Duke held his head and did not dare to think further.
The guardian passed down from generation to generation actually had a problem in his generation.
"Oh my god..."
Salode did not recover from the blow until hours later. If he hadn't been a soldier all his life and had a tough mind, if an ordinary person had encountered such a thing, he would have lost his energy and blood and fainted.
In this world where the weak eat the strong and the strong are respected, losing power means losing everything.
But what made him slightly relieved was that he made the right choice at the critical moment and hugged the demon princess' lap. Even if Nova Sadd is lost, the status of the Maris family will not be shaken.
After figuring this out, Salode relaxed a little. It's just that this matter must be kept secret until the day when the paper can no longer contain the fire...
At the same time, various military camps in the Principality of Silver Claw were screening soldiers.
The military police captain glanced at the soldiers lined up.
"You, and you, and that one over there, the three of you will join the team for me..."
The three people who were called suddenly looked frightened, but they did not dare to disobey the military order. They lowered their heads and walked out tremblingly and joined the queue behind the gendarmerie captain.
They blinked and looked at their boss, with pleading in their eyes.
"Sir, thank you for your hard work." The squadron leader showed a flattering smile and handed the cigarette to the gendarmerie captain.
"Yeah." The gendarmerie captain nodded, took the cigarette and put it in his mouth. The squadron leader immediately stepped forward and lit it.
"call……"
Seeing the gendarmerie captain half-squinting his eyes and blowing out smoke rings with great enjoyment, the squadron leader rubbed his hands and asked with some probing, "Brother, what are you preparing to do?"
"How come they are all old, weak, sick and disabled?"
The gendarmerie captain acted like the squadron leader, with some caution and reprimand, "Don't ask too many questions that you shouldn't."
"Yes, yes, yes..." The squadron leader nodded in agreement.
Turning around and catching the eyes of several of his subordinates, he gritted his teeth and asked, "Brother, to be honest, brothers are afraid of your choice..."
"What are you afraid of?" the military police captain frowned, looking impatient.
"This is what you picked..." The squadron leader stretched out his little finger. This time the military police came to pick people, which was strange. They all picked old, weak, sick, and disabled people, or logistics soldiers who didn't work hard. Everyone thought they were picking cannon fodder to die.
"You shouldn't ask..."
Before the gendarmerie captain finished speaking, there was a heavy bag in his pocket.
"It's just a small thing, but it's not disrespectful." The squadron leader smiled flatteringly. But he felt heartache in his heart. If it weren't for pretending to be considerate of his subordinates, he wouldn't want to waste money on those losers.
But in full public view, he must not chill people's hearts, otherwise it will be difficult to lead the team in the future.
"Forget it, let me tell you clearly." The gendarmerie captain took a puff of his cigarette and continued, "I'm not here to be cannon fodder, but to enjoy happiness."
"Really?" The squadron leader looked unconvinced.
"The superiors are planning to form a four-nation coalition with a quota of 800,000 people. Whoever goes there will not go, don't you think?"
"Then, can this army fight?" The squadron leader's face was filled with astonishment. This had already refreshed his knowledge.
"Just hang around, aren't there people from the other three principalities anyway?" the gendarmerie captain showed a meaningful smile.
"Oops..." The squadron leader finally understood and couldn't help but sigh, "The boss is really evil."
"What do you mean by a ghost!" the gendarmerie captain said with a straight face, "That's wisdom!"
"Yes, yes, Yingming!" the squadron leader quickly agreed.
The same thing is happening in the other three principalities.
