Arad's unruly savior

News from the battlefield kept reaching the Mospish command. Un's brows were furrowed, as if he had prematurely aged. The situation was far from optimistic. Several positions had already been captured, and enemy flags had been planted, fluttering proudly in the sandstorm.

Both Northpear and Eaton headquarters were still preparing for battle and observing, but they also became serious and realized the problem.

All officers' communicators were switched on. Suppressing his anger, Uen said in a warning tone, "This shouldn't be the case. Do you think you have no fighting spirit without Ye Lin?"

As the commander of the lawless zone military headquarters, he was responsible for the overall command of military exercises, the deployment and operation of the overall strategy, while the more detailed small-scale battles still depended on the on-site officers' improvisation and the soldiers' performance.

At this moment, another piece of bad news arrived: an important stronghold in the Kara Mountains had been captured, and enemy flags were flying.

"The nearby troops should immediately launch a counterattack. I want to see news of the recapture of the position before sunset," Uen ordered immediately. He didn't mention any punishment for failure, but his silence spoke volumes.

The towering Kara Mountains, formed by solid rocks, act as an impenetrable barrier, dividing the lawless zone into two areas. The firepower and billowing smoke from special munitions have stained half of the mountain range with the colors of war.

Many soldiers felt disoriented, wondering if this was really an exercise.

Xiao Fu led the War Goddess squadron in a surprise attack on the occupied stronghold. Carrying the Celestial Realm's latest individual soldier thrusters - 02X, they descended like divine warriors, becoming the most dazzling goddesses on the battlefield. With incredible speed and firepower, they overwhelmed the stronghold, and the flames and thick smoke led to the elimination of soldiers one by one.

The goddess of war originally referred to a female ammunition expert who led wars to victory.

Ye Lin once asked the Seven Gods' Elytra that the Celestial Realm's air firepower was clearly inferior to its ground firepower, such as fighter jets, bombers, and armed helicopters, which were all at a relatively ordinary level.

Maishere explained that this was influenced by historical factors; when it comes to aerial combat capabilities, probably no fighter jet can compare to the dragons, who can fly at high speeds and use mysterious magic.

Therefore, the Celestial Realm initially pursued pure destructive power in the field of weaponry, such as the dragon-slaying mechanical Gaebogar and the Ancient Particle Cannon.

Later, with the invention of individual flying machines, the gap in aerial firepower was partially filled, so aerial weapons in the celestial realm remained lukewarm.

"Goddess of War, as expected of an elite force, they recaptured the position so quickly." Hek tried to snipe at the sky with heavy weapons, but with little success, and almost exposed his position, resulting in him being bombed.

Mechanic Miu fiddled with his instruments. The electronic jamming equipment provided by the military failed to function properly. The War Goddesses came and went freely. Their individual thrusters-02X had strong anti-jamming capabilities and were equipped with energy protection barriers. Ordinary firepower could not shoot them down at all.

Of course, she didn't think the jamming equipment provided by the military was counterfeit or substandard. As a scientist who had competed for the Seven Gods' Elytra, Miu knew some inside information. The individual propulsion devices used by those War Goddesses could be considered the most advanced scientific achievements.

Kine said, "I've heard that the newly established combat division's Asclepius has an even more monstrous defensive capability."

“Yes, size has always been a key issue limiting the development of machinery.” Miu nodded, offering his insights as a scientist.

A single chip can condense a large amount of data, but flight capability, protection capability, and combat capability cannot all be solved by a single chip. They must be accompanied by supporting equipment to be effective.

There needs to be a propulsion system that allows adults to fly, batteries that store large amounts of energy, and excellent materials that release energy, etc. There is a lot of space that really cannot be saved.

Miu was considering whether there was a way to interfere with the War Goddesses' flight thrusters-02X, affecting their normal operational procedures. If successful, this would greatly weaken the enemy's air power, adding a significant advantage to their chances of victory.

As the offensive and defensive battles continued, the military exercises gradually became more intense, with the ownership of the positions changing hands several times.

The eliminated soldiers gathered at the Mospish headquarters; in a sense, they had been declared dead.

"Kein, gather a few men and come with me." Hek made a shushing gesture, indicating to keep quiet and not disturb Miu.

After failing to win the Seven Gods' Elytra, Miu didn't show any emotion on the surface, but she seemed to be holding back a sense of unwillingness and resentment. Since the start of the military exercise, she has been the most active and aggressive mechanic in the camp, and is currently staying up all night to crack the War Goddesses' individual thrusters-02X.

She wanted to use this military exercise to prove her abilities and show that she was absolutely no less capable than Carrie Schütz in terms of science and technology.

If the barrier of the 02X man-portable thruster can be broken, she will be extremely prominent regardless of which side wins this military exercise.

Heck muttered to himself, "The women of the Heavenly Realm are all cunning and ruthless; the more beautiful they are, the more poisonous they are."

In a very inconspicuous and hidden corner of the majestic Kara Mountains, Heike accidentally discovered a seemingly abandoned cave with desert thorns growing at the entrance and a rusty, earthen-yellow door at the doorway.

While exploring the cave, Heck unexpectedly discovered that it had once been a small stronghold of the Kallet organization, and that some military supplies were still stored inside, which had not been taken away in time.

He speculated that when the military was cracking down on the Kallet organization, these members fled in such a hurry that they had no time to spare for this small stronghold. Later, those members were either eliminated or arrested, but the hidden stronghold was never discovered.

Heck led his men into the stronghold and said, "Look, there are guns, ammunition, Kallet uniforms, gasoline, desert motorcycles, and even Kallet rocket soldiers' thrusters, but they seem to be unusable."

Roughly estimated, the contents of this place are enough to arm a team of fifty men.

One of the soldiers in the group smiled and suggested, "This is an emergency; we should report it to the military headquarters."

In this way, it can still be considered a meritorious act.

"No, no, that's too boring." Heck shook his head, walked closer to a box of ammunition, dusted it off, and whispered:

"Want something more intense?"

"Heike, what are you trying to do? Don't do anything reckless." Kine immediately reminded him. All the ammunition used in the exercise was specially made. Did he want to use these weapons to kill his own people?

"Don't worry, I'm not that stupid." Heck patted the box containing the military uniform and laughed.

"Would you like to play a real Callet once? If you're going to act, you have to act real."

…………

evening.

Aurora and her team held a crucial position, gazing at the thin white mist in the air, and whispered, "It's foggy."

Heis has long been known as the "City of Fog" because of its frequent foggy days. Similarly, some areas in the Kara Mountains are often shrouded in fog due to their unique terrain, especially in the late autumn season.

The fog usually doesn't dissipate until the morning of the following day.

At times like these, it is all the more important to be wary of a sudden enemy counterattack. On another front, Raphael, his face etched with worry, stared at the bread on the table with a hateful gaze, as if it were not food to fill his stomach, but the embodiment of some enemy.

"Damn it, after all these years, how come wartime rations still taste so bad?"

Is that bread? That's clearly a hard rock dug out of the ground.

The military rations have never been very good, especially the bread from the Imperial Army in Ghent, which is absolutely disgusting.

The military logistics department explained that making the bread harder helps extend its shelf life.

Raphael's lieutenant, a Stormtrooper, couldn't help but complain: "Even if the exercise is meant to be as close to real combat as possible, it doesn't have to be this close."

Raphael's face was bitter as he muttered, "If only I had learned from Fei Yan and secretly brought a few bags of flour."

When Feiyan secretly brought flour, she was still laughing, saying that the wartime food in the military had long since improved, and that it provided enough fat and protein every day. Sometimes they could even eat grilled fish, stewed chicken, braised beef, etc. In short, they could have both nutrition and taste.

Besides, even if you secretly brought some food, it would probably just be some snacks to satisfy your cravings. Who would bring flour to the battlefield?

Halfway through the exercise, Raphael realized how prescient Flying Swallow had been. The food provided by the military was wartime rations, certainly not as plentiful and delicious as during regular training, but still quite good.

This bread, however, perfectly inherited the tradition of the Imperial Army: it had to be cut with a knife, no, with a saw, and then soaked in hot water before it was just right to eat.

"Captain, you're still too honest." The adjutant pulled out a knife and diligently cut open the bread, laughing as he spoke.
"I know that many teams secretly bring things in."

Of course, these are all trivial things, such as cigarettes, coffee, and certain books. Alcoholic beverages are strictly prohibited, and anyone found doing so will be severely punished.

I managed to eat a hard bread, and nothing more happened overnight.

Just as the first rays of dawn were beginning to illuminate the lawless zone, alarms suddenly blared across all the battle positions.

The enemy launched their attack during the foggy days and early morning when their morale was at its lowest. The specially made ammunition exploded in brilliant colors, and the bright flashes seemed to briefly dispel the chill of the foggy day.

However, the military was prepared and did not react hastily. The red and blue forces clashed again like two torrents.

Moreover, the enemy seemed to be launching an attack with the intention of a decisive battle. Their War Goddess formation and Storm Rider squads unleashed their full firepower, stirring up storms towards the important strongholds.

Meanwhile, in Northrop and Eaton industrial areas, as well as Ghent, the training grounds of the other three continents suddenly launched amphibious assaults, with large numbers of soldiers clashing, and the celestial realm seemed to be surrounded by war.

Ghent Command Headquarters.

Alizee seemed to have not slept all night, her eyes fixed on the battle situation on the screen. In this troop split exercise, the strength and configuration of both sides were actually similar, and each special forces unit was evenly divided, so it really tested each other's ability to counter each other's moves.

……

An offensive was launched, the stronghold was captured, but it was then counterattacked and repelled.

Heck and his men, dressed in Kallet's uniforms, suddenly appeared on the battlefield in a sneak attack, as if they had truly returned to that era, causing psychological stress for many and attracting a lot of attention.

His goal was simple: to increase his visibility.

Mechanic Miu successfully breached the defensive barrier of the War Goddesses' individual thrusters-02X. Although the breach lasted only half a minute, it had a surprising effect.

Xiao Fu's team suffered a major loss when they clashed with another War Goddess formation. The failure of their thrusters resulted in the loss of half of their personnel, greatly reducing their combat effectiveness and forcing them to retreat, which caused the situation to shift.

Subsequently, Raphael, as the most elite warrior among the Stormtroopers and the well-deserved captain, fully demonstrated his ability to single-handedly take down an enemy stronghold while his teammates drew the enemy's attention.

Unbeknownst to many, the fog did not seem to clear up as the sun rose; instead, it grew thicker and thicker.

Feeling resentful, Xiao Fu found Aurora and pleaded:
"The enemy has breached the energy barrier on our thrusters, and I hope to get your help."

The mechanical abilities used by the support divisions originated from Maishere's personal computer, Asclepius, and were adapted and renamed the Healing God Device, which is an independent system.

The medical equipment can also provide defensive capabilities for combat personnel.

Aurora nodded; it was within the duties of the support division, and there was no reason to refuse.

"What is the effective range of the medical device?" Xiao Fu breathed a sigh of relief.

“With the accompanying equipment, the entire lawless zone can be covered.” Aurora’s answer left Xiao Fu stunned for a moment.

boom!
Everyone heard an extremely terrifying sound, like a thunderbolt suddenly falling from the sky, flashing with blinding white light. For a moment, almost everyone lost their sight, and the thick fog seemed to come alive.

The lawless zone connected with the second dimension, invisibly opening a colossal spatial gate that enveloped all the soldiers conducting military exercises, including those who had already been eliminated.

central base.

After receiving the instructions, Azera pressed a button that required multiple passwords to activate.

In the second dimension, she is in charge of simulation, a technology from the Tower of Despair, which is also Azera's area of ​​expertise.

The Tower of Delusion, the Tower of Death, where the humans or monsters guarding each floor seem to never die, and after being defeated by adventurers, an identical one always appears quickly.

The same applies to the Tower of Despair. Azera opened the Tower of Despair to a hundred floors, allowing those who grew weary of the endless years within the tower to leave and return to their homeland.

For example, the Dark Elf race, Queen Maya's elder, Lai, the wife of her father, Holy King Eled, never returned after leaving the Tower of Despair, clearly having grown tired of her past life and returned to her own race.

After Lei left, the level of the Tower of Despair where she originally stood was replaced by a phantom created by Azera using technology. The phantoms were almost identical in appearance and power. (End of Chapter)
