Chapter 850 Chapter 852 Soul Extraction and Spirit Refining
"Fire bombing has no effect on these monks. The poisonous fog and strong light can only temporarily restrict their movements. Chief, these outsiders seem to be very familiar with our style of fighting!" Wen Qingming said to President Jingyuan.
President Jingyuan watched as waves of foreign monks landed smoothly. Except for a few who were fighting against the mecha team, the others dispersed steadily to the surroundings and lined up in order. It seemed that they had no intention of breaking out.
"That's right! Their response is completely different from the past. It seems to be carefully planned and takes every step we take into account." Another officer agreed.
"Send a signal to notify everyone to retreat to the fourth line of defense melee shield."
"Fire the electromagnetic railgun!" President Jingyuan looked at the alien team that was landing smoothly and forming a formation calmly, and a huge sense of crisis arose in his heart. He did not intend to wait for the energy shield in the alien team to decay to the right time, and directly ordered to fire.
"Boom!" The huge sound of bombing accompanied by dazzling flames flew towards the team of outsiders.
Someone in the team of outsiders shouted, "Defense!" Colorful barriers rose up and covered the team outside the energy shield.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" The colorful barriers exploded one by one, and there was a brief panic among the foreign monks' teams.
"Form the Eight Directions Celestial Phenomenon Formation! Move through the sixty-four hexagrams, and open the illusion pagoda tower!" A figure descended from the sky riding a two-headed strange beast. As his words fell, a huge octagonal light tower carved with strange patterns slowly rose in the center of the protective shield whose energy was gradually decaying.
The foreign monks who were originally fighting on their own quickly formed an octagonal magic circle at sixty-four points in eight directions.
The man who was stepping on the two-headed beast landed in the center of the octagonal light tower. "East seven, north four, southwest thirteen, attack!" As the man finished speaking, three roars of beasts resounded through the sky, and the three huge monsters roared towards the fourth line of defense and the fortifications further behind.
In the command center, President Jingyuan and others looked at the octagonal light tower with their nerves stretched to the extreme. "The state of the space crack is stable, and it is expected that there will be no signs of collapse within an hour!" Monitoring data came from the monitoring station.
"Comrades, we have tried countless times before, but the space crack cannot be destroyed. No matter how strong the attack is, it cannot affect its state!" President Jingyuan said in a heavy voice.
"It would be great if nuclear bombs could still be used!" someone couldn't help but whisper.
When the end of the world came, those large-yield nuclear bombs with the strongest destructive power were all destroyed for some unknown reason. Over the years, the Military Research Institute has made countless efforts to achieve this, but it still cannot succeed! The effect of the small nuclear bombs that have been preserved is also very different from before the end of the world, just like being restricted by the new rules of heaven and earth.
For this reason, scientists had to change their thinking and develop new weapons. Everything went smoothly at the beginning. However, later on, scientists discovered that after the new weapons reached the sixth level of power, they reached a bottleneck. Just as the monsters and cultivators cannot break through the sixth level at the current stage, the new weapons cannot break through either.
"The fourth line of defense was breached and the melee shield was slightly damaged, but it has now been repaired!" A report came from the fourth line of defense.
"According to the data calculated by the monitoring station, there are currently about 1,200 enemy troops, all of whom are in the Concentrated Spirit Realm. Judging from the stabilization time of the space crack, there are still 2,000 enemies who can pass through the space crack and come to Earth! We have currently used electromagnetic railguns, but they have not formed an effective attack on the enemy. The average cultivation level of our soldiers is the Blood Refining Realm, which is two major realms lower than the enemy. The stock of weapons and ammunition is also limited. Once the hot weapons are used up, we will be more passive."
"Everyone, judging from the current situation, this time it's not an encirclement and suppression, but a counter-encirclement and suppression!" President Jingyuan looked at the enemy's gradually expanding formation in the surveillance video, feeling full of powerlessness.
The Fifth Legion, which he had spent countless efforts to train, consisted of a total of 20,000 elites, but there were only a dozen or so people who had reached the Concentration Realm. However, the opposite side suddenly sent out more than 3,000 monks who had reached the Concentration Realm, as well as the fallen giant sword and the strange light tower. This was a situation he had never encountered before. This was a crushing situation set up by the enemy with all their efforts.
"President, the Forbidden Spirit Array should be almost ready. Let's..." Yan Zishu said.
"Don't count on the Forbidden Spirit Array. The enemy has already been prepared for it and will not easily step into our territory!" Countless pieces of information flashed through President Jingyuan's mind. After several deductions, he found that they were bound to lose this round.
"What should we do then?" Yan Zishu couldn't help but ask.
"If we fight to the end in this round, we will either be wiped out or captured and at the mercy of others. I suggest that we retreat in batches! We can plan for the future!" Today's round is like an egg hitting a rock. Even if we resist to the end, we will not be able to annihilate these invaders. It is meaningless to waste our lives here in vain. Let's just run away as many as we can.
After all, the higher the level of cultivation, the smaller the threat of thermal weapons. The configuration of all enemy members as level six cultivators is already the top configuration according to the interface rules.
"But, if we... retreat, will these invaders start killing us?" A young officer blushed, and it was obvious that he did not agree with the proposal to retreat.
"Do you think that if we all die here, the invaders will not start a killing spree? They will only become more unscrupulous!" Yan Cheng turned his head and glanced at his son. Although Yan Zishu did not say anything, he was obviously unwilling to "retreat" like this.
"I agree with the president's opinion!" Yan Cheng said firmly.
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
Several older and higher-ranking generals stood up and expressed their opinions.
"Pass the order. The support troops that have not arrived yet should return along the original route. The Ninth Regiment in charge of the third line of defense should immediately use the seventh-generation flying skateboards to retreat towards the border town safety zone!" President Jingyuan gave the order to the Communications Department.
"President, father, look, what is that?" Yan Zishu asked, pointing to the center of the surveillance screen.
I saw an old man who had just landed in the enemy's battle formation, waving a black flag. Wisps of smoke floated out of the flag and flew into our position.
“Ah!” Two people in the fourth line of defense suddenly cried out in pain and fell to the ground, rolling back and forth. “It hurts so much, my head hurts so much!”
"What's going on? The melee shield is not broken. Is he suffering from an acute illness? Send him to the medical station quickly!" The captain was worried.
As a result, before the medical station could get the results, more people on the battlefield began to show the same symptoms, and the captain immediately reported the situation to the headquarters!
The command center became nervous as soon as they saw the flag. The military had obtained many spoils of war after encircling and suppressing invaders in the past, including many classics. The black flag with smoke floating in it was recorded in one of the classics, and it seemed to be a soul-refining flag that could extract souls and refine spirits.
