Meridian City.
This was a prosperous city, but now the atmosphere was tense. Fully armed soldiers blocked the entrances and exits, and many soldiers were patrolling the fortress outside - they had received news that at dawn, the Eclipse Cult and the terrifying demonic machines they controlled would attack Meridian City, and now the only thing they could do was to protect the city.
"call……"
Standing on the city wall and looking at the dark wilderness outside, Toto Kirin couldn't help but shudder. At this moment, Imari's voice came from behind her.
"Are you cold, Qilin?"
"Ah, Imari..."
Hearing Imari's voice, Toudou Kirin turned around and smiled at her.
"It's not that I'm cold, I just feel a little nervous. After all... this is my first time participating in a battle like this."
"Me too. To be honest, when I enrolled, I never thought that I would fight in a place like this one day."
Imari also walked to Todo Kirin's side and looked ahead with emotion.
"But I didn't expect that the world is really bigger than we imagined... At least Miss Katima and Shayue seem to be very familiar with each other. They are sleeping soundly now, but I can't sleep at all."
“Hahahaha, maybe that’s the case.”
Hearing Imari's complaints, Qilin smiled bitterly helplessly.
"Where's Mikasa?"
"That child also slept very soundly. Perhaps she had no idea what was going to happen. Sometimes I really envy her."
“But she is really good.”
Speaking of Mikasa, Todou Kirin also became serious.
"That child has very good qualities. If she can receive more formal training, she should be able to reach the top 20 even in Haolin Academy. I don't know what my brother is thinking. Is he going to take her back to our world?"
"I heard that the child seems to have lost his parents. It would be a good choice to bring Haolin back. After all, this world is too hard."
"yes……"
Toudou Qilin raised her head with emotion and looked at the night sky in front of her. When they first came to this world, they were still attracted by the pristine natural scenery of this world. But soon, more practical problems followed - there was no bathroom, no toilet, and even the food had basically no seasoning, it was simply roasted over fire. Such a life is simply unimaginable and unacceptable to modern girls.
This is also the reason why everyone rushed in to find the bathroom as soon as they saw Fang Zheng.
Although they felt sorry for Eloy, they would soon become savages if they continued like this.
This time too, if Fang Zheng hadn't lent them the airship, it would have been a problem for them to travel such a long distance back to Meridian City.
For the girls, they had had enough of having no place to take a shower and having to rest in the wilderness. There was even a time when they woke up and found snakes and poisonous insects under the straw they slept on, which left a psychological trauma on the girls.
Modern civilization is indeed better...
"Go back and rest. There will be a fierce battle tomorrow."
"Um……"
The two stood up, returned to their room, closed their eyes... and fell asleep unknowingly.
It was not until the next morning that the two were woken up by Eloy.
"Qirin! Imari! Come quickly! Something happened!!"
"What's wrong? Have the enemies attacked us?"
Hearing Eloy's shout, the girls who woke up in a daze were startled and hurriedly summoned their weapons and rushed out of the house - but everything was normal outside.
It's just that the sky seems a little dark?
"No war?"
"No, it's in heaven."
"In the sky...?"
After hearing Eloy's words, the two looked up at the sky, and then... were stunned.
"What is that...?"
In front of the two of them, a huge warship was floating there. It even blocked the sun's rays and cast the entire Meridian City under its shadow...
Soon, the culprit of the whole incident appeared in front of the girls.
"Yo, how's it going? Isn't it great?"
Fang Zheng smiled and waved at the girls.
"I worked overtime to finish this. How does it look? Pretty cool, right?"
"Hey? Did you, the president, make this?"
"Yes, how is it?"
"It's amazing that you, President, can create something so outrageous..."
Staring blankly at the huge battleship in front of her, Ikaruga Satsuki couldn't help but sigh. Strictly speaking, the thing in front of her was not a battleship, but an "unexpectedly large" airship. Just like the airship that Ikaruga Satsuki and the others had taken before, there was a huge oval airbag on top and the cabin of the airship below. The whole layout looked very ordinary. From a distance, it felt no different from those advertising airships in Academy City.
The only problem is - this thing is too big.
To put it simply, if compared with the airship that Fang Zheng had lent to the girls before, it is basically the difference between a sperm whale and a goldfish.
No wonder it was able to cover the entire Meridian City under its shadow.
"No way, this is the only thing I can use right now."
Facing Shayue's sigh, Fangzheng chuckled.
More is beautiful, bigger is better, this is an iron rule.
In fact, Fang Zheng did not want to build a large space battleship like the Tiandao Palace, but unfortunately there was not enough time, and this place really could not gather so many materials. So he could only make do with what he had.
"But, does this thing really have combat power?"
Looking at the huge airship in front of him, Imari raised his own doubts. After all, no matter how he looked at it, this thing had no weapons. Could it be that Fang Zheng was planning to use it to smash it directly?
"You'll see when you see it."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng smiled and winked at Julie beside him, who nodded helplessly.
"Enemy attack!!"
At this moment, suddenly, Eloy's scream rang out, and along with her shout, everyone saw the sentry tower in the distance explode instantly. Then, countless mechanical armies, under the rolling smoke and dust, turned into an endless torrent of steel and began to advance towards Meridian City.
"hiss--!!!"
Even though they had already made preparations, it was obviously not a good feeling for everyone to see so many mechanical soldiers advancing towards them mercilessly. The soldiers on the wall turned pale and held the launchers tightly in their hands. At this moment, the girls also became nervous and stared at the front anxiously.
"President, it's time for you to take action, right?"
"Of course, I'm ready, just watch carefully."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng stretched out his hand and pointed upwards. Everyone looked up, and then they saw that on one side of the airship's cabin, pieces of armor suddenly lifted up, and then, pitch-black, huge gun barrels emerged from it, just like a battleship in the Age of Discovery. Densely packed gun barrels stretched out from the upper, middle and lower layers, pointing towards the battlefield.
The next moment, artillery fire roared.
"--boom!!!!"
As the flames exploded in the steel torrent, the next moment no sound could be heard by the crowd. The roars and explosions that came one after another almost swallowed up everything. The whistling shells turned into a sea of fire, tearing all the steel troops that dared to approach into pieces.
“HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!”
Standing on the edge of the city wall, Fang Zheng laughed loudly as he looked at the torrent of steel being torn apart below.
How? This is the power of the 1400 cannon!
This is the glory of the multi-turret cult!
As long as there are enough turrets, then everything is fine! If there is a problem, it is that there are not enough turrets!
If I had crystals, I could consider making a laser launcher... Never mind, 1400 is barely enough.
The battlefield outside the city had turned into an overwhelming wave. Under the bombardment of 1400, the originally solid ground had become like the sea, constantly changing its shape. Any mechanical army that dared to enter this hell was completely blown to pieces by the fierce artillery fire.
If the other side was a human army, they would have been frightened and fled by now.
But unfortunately, they are not a human army and do not know how to retreat.
Moreover, they are not without solutions.
After discovering that the first attack had failed, the Mechanical Legion immediately changed its offensive and began to attack Meridian City from all directions, trying to bypass Fang Zheng's range and attack from the other side.
But Fang Zheng will not give them this opportunity.
"How stupid."
Looking at the mechanical army dispersing from all directions, Fang Zheng snorted coldly and then snapped his fingers lightly.
Then, the next moment, everyone saw the "air bag" above the airship slowly open as if it was splitting - then, thousands of metal octopuses roared out, they condensed and turned into huge black tentacles, stretching out in all directions and spreading out.
“Wow…”
Seeing this, the girls were confused.
They finally understood why Fang Zheng built such a large airship.
That's right, Fang Zheng built this huge airship to make it have the dual functions of an aircraft carrier and a battleship. This is the best choice Fang Zheng can make under the current technical conditions. After all, the technical level of space battleships is too high, and he doesn't want to use too advanced technology to avoid being discovered by others. So the parts he used were basically based on the ancestral civilization, and then he made some improvements.
That way, if some guy tries to make trouble about it, he won't be able to see anything wrong with it.
What's next... For Fang Zheng, this war is no longer a foregone conclusion.
