Chapter 694: Severe Frontline Situation



Ge Xing originally thought that he was a veteran of many battles, and no matter what kind of battlefield or what the battle situation was, he would not feel uncomfortable or surprised.

But he now realized how naive this idea was.

At this moment, he was standing on the sea, looking down at his feet. The sea water seemed to have turned into wet mud, which was soft when he stepped on it. A little sea water passed over his boots, but it did not bring any cold feeling at all. In fact, there was a warm force spreading along the sea level, as if adding some strength to him.

And next to him.

Many comrades were already swimming back and forth in the sea, and with the slightest movement they rushed out like the fastest fish, and even when they emerged, their hair and clothes did not feel wet at all.

"This is unscientific." A colonel couldn't help but complain.

"This is already a supernatural world, what's the point of talking about science?" Someone nearby rolled his eyes.

"The supernatural world should also abide by the basic laws." The colonel argued, "I just choked on a mouthful of water at the bottom of the sea. I could feel the seawater entering my lungs, but I didn't feel any discomfort at all. It was as if I was breathing air. This doesn't conform to medical common sense at all."

After that, he also gave a demonstration.

I deliberately dived to the bottom of the sea and took a deep breath.

Then his head popped out and all the water gurgled out of his nose.

This immediately caused a burst of laughter.

“It’s like turning into a fish.”

"Fish need to breathe too, okay?"

“It’s amazing!”

"If you are injured, just dive to the bottom of the sea. Lilith won't even need to help you."

"Hahaha, do you dare to say that in front of your Psylocke?"

“.”

Although a great battle was imminent, these soldiers did not seem to be afraid.

Especially some veterans.

From the initial five years of darkness, to the coming of Mr. Shen, and then to the subsequent White Bat War and Giant War, to the present day, humans have become increasingly powerful and stronger, and have their own gods. Such growth and such a bright future always fill the hearts of these veterans with hope.

In some people's own words.

Even if you die on the battlefield, when you go down to meet your former comrades, you can proudly tell them that your sacrifice was not in vain, and everything is getting better and better.

With such a strong mentality, how could some crises on the battlefield affect their mood? Ge Xing came back to his senses at this time and said with a smile: "Okay, there will be plenty of time to get used to this new battlefield in the future. Now let's hurry up and build the sea fortress. The rest of the troops have started."

"yes!"

All the soldiers lined up neatly and began to skillfully build fortifications in an orderly formation. The aura of elite soldiers and brave generals was revealed at this moment without any concealment.

Just as Ge Xing said, the rest of the troops had already started. Some of the quicker ones could even see the foundations built on the seabed.

After the long and arduous war, humans have developed their own combat characteristics, especially the troops of the Eastern powers, who have to build defensive castles in every battle and even trained a large number of formation experts for this purpose. When the seventy-two fortresses were built, the powerful formation and the concerted efforts of the soldiers could even withstand attacks that were several times their own.

Being able to attack when advancing and defend when retreating is the most ideal combat situation.

However, the fortifications being rebuilt this time are naturally no match for those in other planes that have taken several years to improve. Therefore, the human leaders are ready for a tough battle or even a retreat.

While humans were actively preparing for war, the ice demons also made moves.

They were neatly arranged teams, wearing ice armor, holding ice weapons, and continuously emerging from the Ice Demon's plane.

They seemed to have known about the information leak and no longer tried to hide it.

Some powerful super warriors of the human race can feel from afar that kind of spiritual energy that is as smooth as ice.

The number is incomparably huge! It is increasing almost every moment.

By the time humanity's defensive fortifications were initially built and various weapons and equipment were ready, the Ice Demons had already gathered a legion of over 100 million people!

Even though these legions are now just frozen, controlled puppets with no independent fighting will, but when this number of legions gather together, they still carry an extremely terrifying aura. Even that powerful spiritual energy is still constantly affecting everything around them, as if turning into thick dark clouds, completely blocking the sunlight, and the temperature is dropping dramatically.

Later on, even the second and third level extraordinary warriors had to stay in the sea as much as possible so that they could draw on the power of the Kingdom of God to slightly reduce the coldness.

However, senior officials such as Yu Yuanliang have already realized the severity of the battle situation on the front lines.

"This number is very bad!" A general said solemnly, "Even if they haven't lifted the seal, as long as they concentrate the power displayed by the Ice Demon Army now, they can destroy our makeshift fortifications in one blow."

This is more than just several times the power.

It's dozens of times more! Humans have to defend the rest of the planes, so the number of warriors sent here is only about 10 million. Even though most of them are veterans with considerable strength, the number of enemies is simply too large! "Although there are many enemies, most of them are low-level transcendents, that is, cannon fodder." Another general said, "Technology weapons can play a huge role in dealing with cannon fodder. Should we make a breakthrough from this point?"

"We can try, but," the general who had just spoken shook his head, "In this extreme climate, many weapons have become unstable or even malfunctioned. I have asked the research institute to solve the problem as soon as possible and have also asked the rear to coordinate production. However, the enemy's army will reach our defense line by next week at the latest."

Scientific creations rely on precision components, and the environment can have a huge impact on materials.

Therefore, what can be used now are only some weapons that were originally designed for space warfare and are naturally not afraid of low temperatures.

After all.

In this world where mysterious forces have become regularized, some of the science and technology developed in low-magic or even magic-free universes have lost their environment for use. This is also the reason why the contradiction between the pure science side that does not involve psychic power and the pure mysterious side that is only related to psychic power is bound to arise when they reach a certain level.

The seventh level is an obvious watershed.
