0168 Chapter 4: The End of the Ordinary (Section 39)
"We found out who is attacking us!"
A linked-list warrior in a black suit rushed into the bar where the crystal ball was placed and shouted loudly.
From the bleeding wound on his shoulder and the burnt uniform, it can be seen that this is a Skari warrior who has just retired from the front line.
"How unbecoming! We are nobles and the masters of this world! We should not show such panic at any time, do you understand?"
Elder Scarry, who was holding the staff, frowned and reprimanded, and then asked in a very calm manner: "Now, let's report."
"Yes! The enemies who attacked us are the Severnt family!" The linked list warrior realized something was wrong and quickly stood up to report. However, what he said caused a commotion among the superiors in the bar.
Facts have proved that no noble can always maintain proper behavior in the face of too unexpected and bad news.
The old man holding the staff narrowed his eyes dangerously and signaled the soldiers who came to report to speak clearly. The latter understood clearly: "On the northern flank where the battle mechas were fighting with us, a large group of troops began to besiege Scarry Castle. They are
…Sevant’s army of transformed humans.”
The elder with a monocle hurriedly waved gestures in the air, and the crystal ball reflected the effect of zooming and rotating, reflecting the northern battlements of the castle.
There was a fierce firefight going on there. The two warring parties were the hordes of cyborgs under the city and the ordinary Skari garrison on the dilapidated city wall.
The vast majority of the elite linked list warriors were dispatched to deal with the sudden appearance of the huge mecha. The only people the on-site commander could deploy to defend the north wall were the mortals who were originally stationed in other directions and the secret sentries who had been withdrawn from the mountains and forests.
Scarry Castle was built in a mountainous area where armored combat vehicles could not drive up. Under such circumstances, Severant's cyborg warriors became the overlords on land.
These guys carry a considerable amount of heavy firepower, and each soldier is a steel fortress that can remain motionless despite being swept by machine guns.
However, Scarry's side is not without the power to fight back. After years of operation, Scarry Castle is one of the most difficult places on the planet to conquer.
Many ancient city walls did not collapse after being torn apart by the torrent of steel, but instead exposed the black alloy barriers inside. The fortress walls deformed and bounced off, and many advanced weapons of the era began to pour firepower down the city.
In front of the dangerous defense wall where the cyborg army is too dense, you can even see a large number of surface-to-surface missiles flying out of the castle to carry out ground-washing strikes.
After successive explosions, only metal parts and broken limbs were left on the ground.
In fact, Scarry's strength is far more than this. Half an hour ago, air force formations began to arrive here to try to assist in the operation.
The Savant side did not send any air force, but the heaven-defying fighter mecha in the sky seemed to have finally found a place to be used. It swatted away those armed helicopters, stealth bombers, and supersonic fighter jets like a fly.
Just shoot it down.
Fighting with a large number of individual extraordinary beings seems to make this guy very irritated. It is really not good at dealing with small and flexible targets. Both sides have been in a state of being unable to do anything for a long time. But in this world, the peak of technology was originally
The weapons of war are another matter.
The main weapons used by giant mechas are laser weapons. The lethal laser in reality is different from the colorful energy beams depicted in movies, TV and animations. It is a more deadly method that is completely invisible to the naked eye.
When you are driving a state-of-the-art fighter jet and rush to the battlefield to kill the enemy, you suddenly find a camera lens-like gadget on the enemy's mecha's shoulder pointed at you. Then the next second, you don't know anything.
As you can imagine, this is a very disappointing experience.
Even more despairing were the friendly forces on the battlefield. The long-awaited air support finally arrived, and then they saw nothing but their own fighter planes exploding into beautiful balls of flames inexplicably in the air...
Only an extraordinary person who has stepped into the sublimation path of alchemy mastered by Scarry has the power to compete with it.
In addition to the linked list that allows them to freely adjust the direction and intensity of gravity around them, all transcendent beings above the realm of [Spiritual Path] can also refine a prop that can distort and refract all light around them.
This thing is considered a standard equipment among the extraordinary people under Scarry. What’s interesting is that its popularity is not due to the original intention of fighting laser weapons. In fact, there is no such thing in the world that can be used on a large scale for war.
Laser weapon technology is a protective mechanism.
This prop can blur the body shape of Scarry warriors, causing a certain degree of deformation and deviation in the enemy's naked eyes and optical detection equipment, making it difficult for them to be targeted and locked.
In the battle against the huge mecha that suddenly appeared, this small prop played a decisive role in turning the tide, almost rendering all the mecha's conventional weapons useless.
Those elite warriors who unfortunately sacrificed their lives were either those who had not yet reached the manifest level and were unable to protect themselves after being locked by laser weapons, or who were unfortunately hit by the mecha body and died in physical attacks.
On the battlefield, Scarry's side gradually stabilized their position from the surprise attack, but the newly added enemies made it impossible for them to reverse their decline. The entire battle around the castle fell into an anxious state.
In the bar, the man with the monocle let out a low roar: "Are the Severnts crazy?! Why on earth did they raid Scarry Castle? For [Eternal Water]?!
But this thing is far from being ready for large-scale use! What does it matter even if we old men gain stronger personal combat power? Are those extraordinary lunatics in Severt still afraid of this?
More importantly, if they attack Scarry with such a big fanfare, are they not afraid that the Zhen family will take advantage of it?"
While the monocle was complaining crazily, the old man holding the staff was constantly adjusting the angle of view reflected in the crystal ball.
Not long after, the picture in the crystal ball stopped over the small town closest to Scarry Castle, more than ten kilometers away, where Zhen Cheng and his party originally planned to stay and wait.
The town has beautiful scenery, and the church on the edge is connected to a large cemetery with great reputation.
In the field of vision reflected by the crystal ball, the cemetery that had rested for hundreds of years was becoming as lively as a noisy market.
Pairs of rotten and stiff people, who had even turned into bones long ago, pushed aside the marble tombstones, crossed the boundary between life and death, and crawled out from the depths of the tomb.
Not long after, an entire undead army began to take shape.
The old man holding the staff sighed: "Your concerns are valuable. It's obvious that Mrs. Zhen has arrived."
