Chapter 149 Barrier Trial: Crisis



As the moonlight was swallowed by the rolling dark clouds, Engineer Cui was embedding the last gear engraved with the rune of "Defending the City" into the watchtower.

The bronze furnace twenty meters away emitted a steam sound like the cry of a whale, evaporating the sweat on the foreheads of the debugging team members into light blue mist.

"The holographic sand table shows that the torque value of the crossbow platform is up to standard!" He wiped the lenses of his glasses that were stuck with star sand, and watched as the thirty-six automatic crossbows in the projection simultaneously emitted the "thousand-pound blue light" recorded in the "Kaogong Ji".

A muffled sound suddenly came from the underground warehouse three kilometers away.

Transport captain Luan, who was debugging the Yuan Dynasty bronze artillery turret, wiped the engine oil off his beard and watched as the barrel of the Hundred-Shot Cannon suddenly began to rotate clockwise - this was clearly an ominous sign of going against the five elements in the "Fire Dragon Sutra".

He was about to shout for help when the oracle-bone script curtain bomb above his head suddenly vibrated, projecting the "Earth Dragon Turning Formation" on the remaining pages of "Wu Bei Zhi" onto the gray concrete wall.

"Old Luan, what are you dawdling about?" Construction worker Duan passed by carrying a steel beam engraved with mortise and tenon joints from the "Construction Methods". The Lu Ban ruler that had fallen from the toolbox suddenly stood up and pointed to the southeast direction, where the warehouse floor was condensing bronze blood. "Why is this square formation diagram from the "Sun Zi Suan Jing" swallowing up the moonlight?"

Their questions were interrupted by the piercing sound of an alarm.

Thirty-six fuel-saving lamps recorded in "Mengxi Bitan" exploded at the same time outside the base, and the copper whistle of "Jixiao Xinshu" hanging around Guard Yin's neck rang automatically.

When he rushed onto the city wall, he saw the herd of erosion beasts wrapped in a smelly purple mist smashing the Star Sand barrier - the claws of those monsters with bronze scales were still stained with the blood talismans for breaking the formation recorded in the "Taibai Yinjing".

"The loading of the curtain bomb is fifteen seconds late!" Weapon expert Xing's mechanical arm slammed on the console with a clang, and the ballistic trajectory of the Fire Bird Technique in the "Tiger Seal Sutra" in the holographic projection suddenly twisted into a pretzel.

He watched helplessly as the three corrosive beasts broke through the defense line and used their sharp claws to tear open the protective cover of the automatic crossbow that was being debugged. Engineer Cui vomited blood and rolled down from the operating table, still holding half a piece of crystal sashimi of the mind-awakening pepper that was shining with the golden light of "Qimin Yaoshu" in his hand.

When Mou Xuan opened his collar, the star sand that seeped out of the cracks in the weight condensed in the air into the diagram of the twenty-eight constellations in the "Huainanzi".

He kicked open the gate that was corroded by the acid of the corrosive beast, and jumped onto the battlements of the city wall to the rhythm of the reverse rotation of the gears of the Water Transport Observatory: "Master Duan led the people to use the mortise and tenon joints of the Construction Method to seal the gap in Area B3! Old Luan switched the Hundred-shot Cannon to the 'Earth Fire Mingyi' mode in the third chapter of the Fire Dragon Sutra!"

"But the copper turret has not completed the five elements calibration..." Before Transport Captain Luan finished his words, Mou Xuan had already thrown the neck star sand into the barrel.

When the copper rust from the Yuan Dynasty met the star sand from Huainanzi, it instantly burned out the patterns of the Yi hexagrams on the surface of the gun barrel.

When the first shell packed with the power of Lihuo blasted through the herd of corrosive beasts, Engineer Cui, who was repairing the crossbow, suddenly discovered that the sound of the mechanism of "Mozi: Preparing for the City Gate" was mixed with the sound of the gears of "Record of Defending the City".

Chen Yao's night running light suddenly became too hot to hold.

As she flashed into the shadow of the switch room, the words from Youyang Zazu were crawling into the main switch like tadpoles.

At the moment when the acid of the erosion beast splashed towards the back of weapon expert Xing, the girl bit her fingertips and let the blood drop into the lampshade. The "Yi Xing Chang Dou" seal script of "Divine Mechanism to Enemy Taibai Yin Jing" suddenly lit up on the fuse - the electric light of the entire A area's fortifications suddenly refracted into the shape of the Big Dipper, nailing the three-headed erosion beast to death in front of the caltrops array recorded in "Wu Jing Zong Yao".

"Dispatcher Shao! Melt all the copper ingots from "The Exploitation of the Works of Nature" in stock in Area D into the defense wall!" Mou Xuan's roar made the bronze blood on the battlements of the city wall boil.

The dispatcher who was busy moving supplies staggered, and the "Menglianglu" in his arms suddenly turned automatically to the chapter "Lin'an City Defense". The ripples of the West Lake on the yellowed paper began to absorb the poisonous mist spewed by the corrosive beast.

Yin Shouwei's bronze whistle suddenly emitted the sound of a crane's cry as described in "Questions and Answers by Li Weigong".

He thrust the "Ji Xiao Xin Shu" into the crack in the city wall, and watched as the shadow of a Ming Dynasty wolf-whip emerged from the pages of the book and swept down a large number of evil beasts.

But more monsters were rushing over, stepping on the corpses of their companions, and the blood talismans of "Taibai Yinjing" on their claws had already corroded one tenth of the thickness of the Star Sand Barrier.

"Brother Mu! Structural cracks appeared on the western side of the "Kaogong Ji" load-bearing column!" Construction worker Duan roared and threw out the Lu Ban ruler, watching this tool that had been passed down for three generations decompose in the air into the "eight grades of materials" scale recorded in the "Yingzaofashi".

When the tail of the erosion beast swept towards his face, the old craftsman suddenly grabbed two "Ziren Yizhi" iron nails and stabbed them into the monster's pupils - this was a unique skill he had secretly learned when he was repairing the Yingxian Wooden Pagoda before the end of the world.

Suddenly, the sound of the plow bell from the "Book of Agriculture" rang out in the control room.

Weapon expert Xing watched as the "Tiger Seal Sutra" projected on his robotic arm suddenly turned into the "Hundred Battles Strategy" formation diagram. Before he could adjust the parameters, the three curtain bombs automatically switched to the "Prostrate Fire Dragon" mode in the "Thatched Cottage Strategy".

When the blast knocked him over, this proud man finally discovered that Mou Xuan had recorded the lost "Nine Transformations" in the "Military Records" into the chip in advance.

The hem of Chen Yao's skirt suddenly moved without wind.

The words of "Youyang Miscellaneous Zuo" floating in the night lamp have spelled out the last stroke of "Yixingxing Huandou Formation". When she pressed the lamp to the main switch, she saw that the cracks in the weight on Mou Xuan's neck were oozing out the Pythagorean numbers in "Zhou Bi Suanjing" - those golden numbers flowed into the ground along the bronze blood, and produced a strange resonance with the square formation diagram of "Sun Zi Suanjing" in the warehouse.

Moonlight mixed with bronze blood flowed on the city wall, and Mou Xuan wiped away the star sand that splashed on his lips with his backhand.

The cracks in the weight on his neck were getting hot, and the Pythagorean numbers in the Zhoubi Suanjing were swimming into the ground like golden snakes. "Master Duan!
