Chapter 143 The project was completed and everyone was unharmed.
A ripple spread across the electronic buffer barrier, and a temporary gap was opened.
Gong Zhen flew in immediately. Beside him, two warriors fired their energy guns repeatedly, clearing out the wild beasts that wanted to take the opportunity to follow in, and providing cover for Gong Zhen.
Outside the court, Lao Bai's eyes widened slightly.
"Wait, when did that soldier go out?"
Jin Zhaoshan blinked and said uncertainly, "Did I see it right just now? Did that person become invisible?"
"Do they have a Soul Card that can cause invisibility in their deck?" Old Bai frowned slightly, then shook his head. "That shouldn't be right. There aren't many cards at this level that can achieve such a long duration of invisibility. Furthermore, major armament upgrades generally don't allow for such general-purpose cards... Furthermore, this behavior is more like the ability of the individual reactive armor itself."
"No way." Jin Zhaoshan scratched his head. "I feel like that mecha has more than enough abilities already. It's proficient in flying, attacking, and defending. If it could also become invisible, wouldn't that be a bit too abnormal?"
"...There must be a limit." Lao Bai fell into thought. "Actually, if we want to implant a single-target invisibility ability, our deck can do it. It just depends on how much we are willing to pay."
The function of soul cards cannot be perfect. Under the limitation of unchanged quality, if you want to gain new abilities, you must give up some of the existing abilities.
Moreover, even general-purpose soul cards cannot be used in every deck.
For example, there is a very powerful general-purpose card "Burning Heat Light", which can directly destroy a summoned beast after activation, but this card cannot be added to some dark attribute deck constructions, and even adding it to a water attribute deck has the risk of affecting the ability of summoned beasts in the same deck.
There is no way. After all, the soul card master needs to connect the soul cards of the same deck to his own soul energy well at the same time, which will cause many conflict problems.
This problem is not obvious for low-level soul cards, but once the quality reaches epic, the conflicts and contradictions between soul cards will become very obvious, which requires soul card masters to spend more time when constructing their own decks.
Let’s talk about the invisibility ability. This ability is quite practical at the rare level and even the epic level. There are many papers studying the invisibility ability now, but the conflict of this ability is very obvious, and it has very high requirements for the user’s deck.
"But that's not right," Jin Zhaoshan said, puzzled. "The card makers in the ancient capital must also understand this principle. A deck undergoing a major armament overhaul can't randomly add these abilities. And what did that warrior do when he just left the team in stealth?"
Is there anything in this project that requires you to leave the team and do it in secret?
That warrior just now seemed to have said something like, "Ranged targets cleared!" Could he be going to clear out those Black Spear beasts? But is that really possible? The beasts within the Dire Border have very sharp hearing. Even if you could become invisible, you wouldn't be able to reach them.
Besides, I haven’t seen you open the Phantom Light Crystal, so how could you possibly find the location of those wild beasts?
Putting these aside, just introducing a stealth capability in the major armament reform is something that is very wrong.
Stealth is a very suitable ability for the military, but it is problematic to apply it to the entire army. The card deck used by regular troops must be relatively inclusive. At the very least, you need to be able to include those general-purpose soul cards that are almost standard in the military.
Controversial abilities like invisibility can easily conflict with some soul cards if one is not careful. To be on the safe side, they will not use such soul cards in places like major armament changes.
As for the stealth ability, there are naturally troops in the army that specialize in using relevant soul cards, so you are not needed.
"This..." Lao Bai couldn't figure it out.
Since the appearance of Gu Du's deck, it has broken his common sense many times and slapped him in the face countless times.
"Let's wait and see." That's all Lao Bai could say.
After all, if the deck is not inclusive, the final jury score will definitely not be high.
"Wait!" Jin Zhaoshan suddenly became excited. He patted Lao Bai's shoulder and pointed at the screen, "Look, Lao Bai, why is that legendary beast appearing now?"
"Hmm?" Lao Bai looked up and saw that, as expected, in the screen broadcasting the soul card, the huge outline was already looming, and the scarlet eyes were cast straight down, locking onto Fang Pei's team!
Lao Bai pondered for a moment and seemed to understand something: "I know... Did this wild beast remember Fang Pei? It's here for revenge!"
During the morning match, Fang Pei blasted through the wild beast's paw with a shot, and now it seems that it has remembered it.
"This wild beast still holds grudges." Jin Zhaoshan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Fortunately, I didn't encounter this wild beast this morning."
"...You're quite proud."
"That's not the case." Jin Zhaoshan chuckled, "However, we haven't even reached halfway before the legendary beast has appeared. The ancient capital... I'm afraid it will be difficult to defeat it."
The team from the imperial capital encountered the legendary wild beast in the last quarter of the journey, and at that time the wild beast also came out from the side, so He Qi only sent one person to guard the rear and lead the wild beast away, and then he could accelerate to full speed and rush to the finish line.
But the situation is different now.
There are still nearly 1,500 meters to the finish line. Even the Chaos Marching Formation in the Imperial Capital will take dozens of seconds to walk this distance. This time is enough for a legendary wild beast to complete several sets of combos.
What's more, the wild beast now has a clear purpose, which is to rush towards Fang Pei. It directly blocks the middle of the road, and they can't avoid it no matter what.
We can't defeat the enemy head-on, and we can't get around them either. This is a desperate situation no matter how you look at it.
Lao Bai figured this out and sighed, "What a shame! From what we can see right now, the Ancient Capital's achievements are much better than the Imperial Capital's, but the Legendary World is blocking the way... There's nothing we can do. It looks like the Ancient Capital won't be able to complete the project this time."
Who would have thought that projects could influence each other?
Ancient Capital scored high in the previous event, but if it fails to even finish a thousand meters this time... its score will probably be overtaken by Imperial Capital.
"Beautiful!" Hu Chen slapped his thigh. "The Ancient Capital team has been targeted by Legend World! Hahaha, Wen Yang, I was just worried that the Ancient Capital team might score higher than us in this event. Now it seems the outcome is decided!"
Wen Yang frowned slightly, but he had a bad feeling in his heart: "...It's better not to be too happy too soon. It seems that the ancient capital still has a trump card."
"What trump card can get past the legendary level?" Hu Chen smiled nonchalantly. "Besides, there are those wild beasts that specialize in countering shields lurking in the dark, watching covetously. This time, the ancient capital has reached its end!"
“…I hope so.”
…
Gong Zhen flew into the electronic buffer barrier and immediately found a position on the top of the carriage. The swarm magazine kept flying, changing the protocol attribute of "increased movement speed".
He came to Fang Pei and said, "Squad leader, there are three black spear beasts in total, and they have all been dealt with."
"Okay." Fang Pei nodded.
Shortly after setting off, he sent Gong Zhen away from the team, driving the strong magnetic catapult module and silent field into the darkness to find trouble with those long-range wild beasts.
As for how to find it... it's very simple, of course it's with the help of the Skeleton Mechanical Dog.
Because he guessed that this major military overhaul would focus on reconnaissance, Yu Cang had made some upgrades to the Skeleton Mechanical Dog's abilities over the past few days.
Unexpectedly, it was actually used.
The Skeleton Mechanical Dog originally possessed the ability to ignore optical invisibility. After the upgrade, its reconnaissance capabilities were further enhanced. It also gained a sonar-like ability that could remotely determine the shape of an object through the reflection of sound waves... Of course, its quality was also upgraded to rare.
This Soul Card was surprisingly useful within the Nightmare Boundary. Combined with the silent field's stealth and sound-absorbing abilities, Gong Zhen effortlessly located the Black Spear Wild Beasts, even killing a few of the invisible beasts.
In fact, although the wild beast's long-range black spear seemed to be very effective against shield-type skills, Fang Pei didn't think their attacks could break through the electronic buffer barrier... This ability gave him a great sense of security.
However, there was no chance to start over, and he had never tried it. To be on the safe side, he decided to solve them all first.
Speaking of which, the silent field can achieve invisibility and sound suppression at the same time. Judging from the current perception capabilities of the wild beasts on the Nightmare Border, they can actually drive invisibly all the way to the end, which will definitely save a lot of trouble.
However, this project is called "Team Encounter" after all. If you don't have to, you should not use this tricky method. Otherwise, you will be deducted points because of this and it will be too late to regret it.
Suddenly, Fang Pei looked up suddenly, and then his pupils shrank.
The outline of a huge wild beast suddenly appeared not far away, and its scarlet gaze pierced through the darkness. Fang Pei didn't know if it was an illusion, but he actually felt a hint of anger in this gaze.
Coming for me?
...Whatever.
"Turn on the lights!" Fang Pei ordered immediately.
Suddenly, a warrior took out the Phantom Crystal without hesitation and injected soul energy into it.
Buzz!
A ray of light lit up, and in an instant, a huge outline in the darkness appeared before everyone!
"Are they crazy?" Hu Chen's eyes widened. "Aren't they able to become invisible? Why don't they sneak around now and turn on the lights instead? Are they afraid that the wild beast won't see them?"
Fang Pei was naturally not crazy.
If they take a detour, the final result will most likely be inferior to that of the Capital. With such an excellent work, they naturally cannot be willing to fall behind in the score.
So what if it’s passed down from generation to generation?
"Keep suppressing fire!"
The soldiers responded immediately, Lei Tie on his shoulder roared and raised the gun barrel, and countless shells were fired one after another frantically!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The whistling wind and white smoke merged into one in the darkness, and black shadows shot out, heading straight for the body of the huge wild beast under the light of the dim light crystals!
"just!"
The wild beast roared angrily and slapped down with its palm. Countless shells collided with it head-on. For a moment, flames surged everywhere and the exploding thick smoke covered half of the wild beast's body!
This wild beast didn't seem to expect that the power of these shells would be so explosive. It originally wanted to slap the armored vehicle directly, but after being concentrated by fire, the powerful explosion directly curbed its offensive!
The wild beast couldn't help but take a step back and pulled its arm out of the black smoke. At this moment, the arm was blown to pieces, and black blood spurted out of it, splashing in the sky.
After a brief moment of daze, the wild beast's brain was suddenly filled with anger.
Second time! Second time!
They are just a group of tiny bugs, how could they possibly hurt it a second time!
However, Fang Pei would not give it a chance to get angry. Before it could finish thinking about it, more shells came towards it and hit its body directly!
boom!
Explosions sounded one after another, and artillery shells were fired as if they were free, leaving trails of white smoke that lined up along the way as the armored vehicles advanced!
For a moment, everyone watching the broadcast felt their eardrums bulge, and the continuous explosions drowned out all other sounds. The soul card master who secretly controlled this soul card was also startled and quickly lowered the volume of the broadcast.
However, everyone was already numb from the shock.
No... How much soul energy have you prepared in advance?
Didn’t they say that this project would limit the decks that could be prepared in advance?... How come you don’t seem to be affected at all?
And with so much soul energy, what kind of soul card did you use to store it? Is there really a soul card that can hold so much soul energy?
They certainly didn't know that the armored ordnance vehicles could hold tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition.
Even if Lei Tie Roar's shells consumed fourteen rounds of ammunition, it was enough for them to fire thousands of shells!
Every night, the soldiers would work hard to restock the armored vehicles with ammunition, and it took several days to fill them up.
However, the more painful it is to replenish ammunition, the more satisfying it will be to release it!
Fang Pei's team consists of only ten people, and only five of them are suppressing the enemy head-on at the moment. But even so, with the blessing of the twenty-layer energy output protocol attribute and the almost infinite ammunition reserves, the ammunition frenzy still forced this legendary creature to retreat step by step!
When everyone saw this exaggerated scene, they all held their breath and dared not even breathe.
This is so exciting, who could have thought of this before.
Hu Chen still had a puzzled expression on his face the previous second, but the roar that filled the entire hall at this moment rudely interrupted all his thoughts. His expression froze, and before he knew it, his mouth had opened to its limit, and he couldn't say a word.
collapse!
The barrel of the Thunder Iron Roaring Cannon on a soldier's shoulder turned red. Finally, after another shell was fired, the barrel could not bear the weight and shattered into pieces and flew everywhere.
Everyone was immediately sweating.
The fight had gotten to this point, and no matter what the people watching were thinking, there was only one thought left in their minds.
Could it be that he can really defeat Chuanshi?
A team of fourth-level soul card masters fought off the legendary. Help, how could I have such an outrageous dream?
So, when they saw that a soldier's cannon had a problem, everyone present couldn't help but sweat for him.
However, before they could stop worrying, they saw that the flying mechanical parts did not fly far, but flowed back under the blessing of a magical power, and reassembled into the shape of Lei Tie Roaring on the shoulders of the warrior.
This...what?
The speed at which Lei Tie's Roar repaired itself was so fast that many people even thought they were hallucinating.
This is certainly not an illusion, but the ability of the armed ordnance vehicle.
After so many days of training, even in combat, the soldiers have become very fast at reassembling mechanical parts with the help of ordnance vehicles, and such "barrel explosions" will basically not affect the combat.
The armored vehicle was no longer accelerating at this moment, but instead slowed down accordingly.
On the one hand, this legendary wild beast cannot be dealt with in a short time, as it is too fast and easy to hit. On the other hand, the speed of the ordnance vehicle will be reduced when it is traveling at high speed. In addition, it is currently under fire suppression and the recoil is not low, so the speed is not fast, only slightly faster than the speed of the wild beast's retreat.
As the armored vehicle advanced, the giant wild beast staggered backward.
These shells already had the ability to hurt it, and now that there were so many of them, and it had not expected such power before, it was actually suppressed and could only retreat continuously.
However, although Fang Pei and his men's attack was effective, it was actually not that great. Now, the wild beast's body was covered in blood, and black blood kept splashing and evaporating, but it had been absorbing the surrounding dark energy, and its self-healing ability had been exerted to the extreme. These shells could not do anything to it for a while.
Moreover, in the raging flames, the wild beast's head remained intact. The explosions at most scratched the skin on its face, but it was impossible to go deeper.
For it, any attack that cannot break its head can be almost ignored.
But...it's so annoying!!
The wild beast's head was filled with anger.
Damn it, it should have gone all out from the start...it's not too late now!
“Chaa ...
A deep roar suddenly sounded, and the wild beast paused, digging its paws directly into the ground, abruptly stopping its retreat!
A gust of wind spread along with the roar, and the shells in the air were suddenly blown sideways. Except for a few shells that still hit the target crookedly, the others were blown aside.
Fang Pei's eyes narrowed, and he had already discovered something was wrong.
"Pause attack and prepare for defense!"
The sound of cannon fire suddenly stopped, and the two soldiers stepped out and stood in front of the carriage.
While everyone was suppressing their fire, the two of them had already changed the protocol attributes of their individual reactive armor to the twenty-layer "increased shock absorption".
then……
Electronic buffer barrier!
Buzz...
The azure light curtain unfolded in an instant, and the two light curtains merged together, forming a light curtain that was unprecedentedly solid!
The next second, the scarlet light in the wild beast's eyes suddenly surged, as if a blood-red meteor lit up in the darkness. Immediately afterwards, a raging torrent fell from the sky and landed directly on the electronic buffer barrier!
This was the same move that killed Fang Pei instantly this morning.
However, Fang Pei was in the process of using up his energy and replacing his wild crystals at the time, so he had no time to defend himself, which was why he was killed instantly. But now that they were fighting as a team, with everyone cooperating, this kind of loophole wouldn't occur at all.
What's more, the defense this time is much stronger than in the morning!
Buzz!
A torrent of scarlet energy descended from the sky, crushing the electronic buffer barrier. In an instant, electric light overflowed and the barrier shook continuously. Although it looked like it would shatter at any moment, but... it held on!
The scarlet energy exploded above the buffer barrier, some energy kept flowing along the barrier, and the crackling sound of flashing arcs was endless!
The two warriors who were holding up the barrier groaned, and the four wild crystals in the Lock of Absolute Pressure faded and became transparent visibly. Seeing this, several warriors came up quickly and replaced the wild crystals for them.
You know, these desolate crystals were extracted from the bodies of epic desolate beasts, but after just one attack from this desolate beast, they were consumed to this extent...
Fortunately, as long as you can hold on at the beginning, there will be almost no major problems afterwards.
However, at this moment, everyone suddenly felt that there was nothing underneath the ordnance tank.
Fang Pei's face changed.
Although they have defended against the attacks of the wild beasts...but the surrounding ground has no protection!
This scarlet beam of light was like a giant knife. With a wave of it across the earth, it immediately plowed out a deep pit!
The terrain here is already uneven, and if we lose our balance at this moment... we are very likely to overturn on the spot.
At this moment, Xiong Yi in the cab pulled the gear lever and shouted, "It's okay, just watch me!"
The ordnance vehicle tilted uncontrollably in the air, and just as it was about to hit the ground sideways, Xiong Yi reached out of the window.
Capture the stance!
The invisible force spread out, slowing down the falling speed of the armored vehicle slightly. During this time, the two soldiers had already changed the protocol attributes and activated the strong magnetic ejection module.
Because the ability to fly is not needed in the car, no one has upgraded this attribute. At this critical moment, it can only be temporarily replaced.
But fortunately, it's still in time.
The two soldiers held on to the side of the armored vehicle and managed to straighten its direction before it hit the ground!
After landing, Xiong Yi operated quickly, steering the military vehicle to avoid all the pits on the ground. With a drift, he straightened his body and arrived at the feet of the giant wild beast!
At this time, the wild beast had just restrained its attack. It lowered its head, as if wondering what had just rushed over.
After all, in its mind, those bugs should have been killed just now.
As it lowered its head, it suddenly saw a ray of blue light.
What is that...
It subconsciously stepped on it.
Buzz!
The sound of an engine suddenly rang out, and the armored vehicle instantly accelerated. Behind the carriage, a soldier wiped his chest, and the green ring tightened, summoning a second electronic energy-absorbing tower!
However, this time the Electronic Energy Draining Tower was not used to supply energy, but to immediately activate its last ability—
When it is destroyed and enters death cooling, all the soul energy in it will be converted into electronic pulses and released simultaneously!
Electronic pulse explosion!
Boom!
The wild beast's paw fell and crushed the electronic energy tower to pieces, but the next second.
Swish!
The azure electric light instantly exploded from under its feet and spread upwards along its skin, spreading throughout its body in an instant!
"just!!!"
The wild beast roared, and the moving electric light paralyzed its body. Not to mention the damage, after all, the wild beast was originally black, and it was impossible to tell whether it was blinded by the electricity, but the control was real.
The wild beast's body stiffened for a moment, and it staggered to one side. Taking advantage of this time, the military vehicle sped away and headed straight for the finish line!
laugh--
The armored vehicle stopped steadily in front of the exit of the alien space at the end, turned into a piece of parts and dissipated in the air. Ten soldiers wearing individual combat armor slowly landed in a flash of lightning.
The project was completed and no one was injured!
