January 10, 1099.
Rutland's black-robed team left the Rhode Island landspeeder station and plunged into the depths of the dense forest without a trace.
At this time, Zhou Jinru stuffed all the finished manuscripts into the document bag and ordered the scavenger to hand them over to Kelsi.
The scavenger held the document bag and rarely left immediately. She asked, "Does the doctor have anything else you want me to tell Dr. Kelsey?"
Zhou Jinru raised his head and asked, "Why do you say that?"
"intuition."
The scavenger is the person next to Kelsey and can be completely trusted.
Zhou Jinru tapped his fingers lightly on the table. After thinking for a moment, he reached out to pick up the helmet and put it on. A man's deep voice came from under the wide brim: "Tell Dr. Kelsi that I am very happy to be able to get along with her for such a long time. I am very happy." pleasure."
After watching the scavenger leave, Xu Yu came in from outside, holding the folder in both hands and smiling sweetly: "Sir, what do you want from me?"
Zhou Jinru's eyes moved away from the back of Miss Agor's hand. She put on a ring, indicating that she liked the gift very much.
"Xu Yu, while I'm away, you should communicate more with Yaye and take good care of Dr. Kelsi and Amiya..."
"Where are you going, sir?"
There was a hint of panic in Xu Yu's tone, and she hurriedly took a step forward, but then stopped.
Her eyes were red but clear. She clutched the folder in her hand and whispered: "Sir, I will wait for you to come back, no matter how long it takes."
"Thank you."
Zhou Jinru stood up, put his hands in his pockets, and walked out of the office step by step, alone. On the way, he met the operators returning to the ship. He greeted them one by one. After turning a corner, his figure gradually faded until he completely disappeared.
The film woman watching the surveillance screen said nothing, holding a bulging document bag in her right hand. She thought for a long time. She originally had the opportunity to walk the last leg with him, but she chose to give up.
"Aguang, you are a selfish person, so selfish that you can give up everything."
The woman closed her eyes.
At this time, no one except Kelxi knew that Zhou Jinru had left the Rhode Island land speeder.
…
On the snowy, white land, a black steel torrent moved slowly, and the flag of Victoria was blown by the cold wind.
As the commander of the vanguard, Sean was standing on the sunroof of the command vehicle looking into the distance.
A month ago, he was still preparing lessons at the university. Suddenly, several people wearing military commission badges broke in and asked him to demobilize. The old professor thought this request was quite rude and he refused on the spot.
But what happened next was completely beyond his expectation. He finally agreed to demobilize and was taken out of the university by more than a dozen fully armed Royal Guards.
The war with the World Eaters gradually intensified. Casimir's defeat caused all countries to accelerate their progress. Victoria's Congress passed a resolution to allow those outstanding soldiers after the Great Reform to return to the army and continue to serve the country. There is the scene above.
The army penetrated into the vast snow-covered plains. The vastness of this land exceeded the expectations of the Victorians. What was even more disturbing was the bone-chilling cold. If supplies could not keep up in time, it would definitely have a serious impact on combat effectiveness.
"General Sean, according to the information sent by the messenger, there is an army group in Ursus to the north of us, advancing hand in hand with us, with the same goal."
The Letanian magician troops are not yet in place, and Sean has no intention of continuing to advance. The World Eater Legion's combat effectiveness is very powerful, and if we take it lightly, we will probably suffer.
The Union Army was now demoralized and in urgent need of a victory to boost morale.
Scouts and drones cover the surrounding area for several kilometers, and no disturbance will escape their eyes.
About an hour later, Sean suddenly received an urgent report that the Ursus had discovered the movements of the World Eater Legion in the north and were moving towards his position.
"What a coincidence?!"
The one who swallowed the world didn't go north or south, so he came to find him?
"Order the troops to prepare for battle!"
Sean's expression suddenly became tense, and the staff officers in the temporary headquarters also changed their expressions.
Victoria's vanguard force numbered 8,000, of which 70% were combatants, including a company of low-altitude flying troops, 45 steam mechas, and several snipers. This was also the reason for their slow movement. There was no way to march in the wilderness. , not to mention road conditions.
The victorians who were waiting carefully received more intelligence soon. The intelligence sent back by the scouts scattered around showed that a large army of world eaters was approaching and was expected to appear in sight in forty minutes.
"The enemy has discovered us."
"Be wary of the aerial strikes of the World Eaters. They are very good at using airborne means to quickly enter the battlefield."
"Activate the anti-aircraft unit now."
The position quickly became busy. Several trucks dragged huge magic units. The magicians assembled them and activated the etching circle. A translucent oval shield quickly covered the entire position.
Sean knew that this was the secret weapon that Victoria had been researching, and that its source came from the regent of Sarkaz, Tresis. The latter had disappeared for a long time after the World Eater War, and no one knew where he was. .
In less than ten minutes, a sharp whistling sound suddenly filled the air, a harsh sound when the air was torn apart.
Although Sean was old, his eyes were still sharp. He looked up and roughly guessed what it was. He shouted loudly: "It's a shelling! Get down! Hide in the trench!"
Most of the Victorian soldiers hid in makeshift trenches dug in the snow, and those who moved slower were already too late.
The shells of the World Eaters suddenly fell, and the earth-shaking explosion seemed to completely submerge the whole world.
I don’t know how much time passed, but the sound of artillery gradually became sparse. Sean, who was buried in the snowdrift, asked the chief of staff to dig him out. The old man could not hear the sounds around him clearly, but he could see the soldiers raising their weapons. Let out a cheer louder than the sound of cannon!
It was the magic units that condensed the shield that withstood the bombardment. Except for some unlucky ones who were injured by the shock wave, the World Eater's attack had no effect!
It actually works so well? !
Sean didn't have time to be happy, because those terrible enemies had already appeared in their sight.
…
"Void Shield, interesting."
"Breaking the void shield requires energy weapons. We don't have enough energy to form an effective strike."
A World Eater officer put down his telescope and pointed at Victoria's military formation in the distance: "It doesn't matter, let me see if the Terran human army is as hard as the Void Shield. The Space Marines charge and crush them!" "
