Devouring the Star: Age of Cataclysm

Chapter 123 The meaning of protection!
At 12 noon that day.

After Lin Ye had lunch with Lei Shen and Easter, they parted ways.

Taking advantage of this trip to Daxia, Lei Shen wants to go to Kyoto to meet some old friends and learn sword skills.

The former world's number one spiritualist, East, plans to go to Mountain City to see this legendary magical 3D city.

At the same time, he also wanted to feel what was so special about this place that gave birth to Lin Ye, a freak warrior.

After watching the sky blue and gold fighters take off,

Lin Ye and Li Huwei came to the city wall of An Ning Fortress.

The two stood side by side, looking at the battlefield in the distance.

The beast tide's attack has come to an end, but the impact and pain it brought are far from over.

Treat the injured.

Count the casualties.

Clear the number of monster carcasses and dissect monster materials.

Reconstruct fortifications, reinforce fortress walls, replenish ammunition, and comfort the survivors who have lost their loved ones...

All the aftermath matters were carried out in an orderly manner under the arrangement of the manager of Anning Fortress.

People seem to be familiar with these processes.

Because this kind of thing has happened too many times.

In the early days of the Cataclysm, humans spared no effort in defending themselves against the beast tide.

But he wanted to strengthen the fortress walls in all directions to make them strong enough to defend against lord-level monsters.

In today's era of scarce resources, it is like reaching for the stars, which is simply impossible.

Therefore, all fortresses had to settle for the second best option and combine all hard alloys with reinforced concrete to increase their strength as much as possible.

In the southwest, where ground monsters are prone to gathering in groups, a beast tide is likely to bring a devastating blow to human bases.

Especially the rat and ant infestations.

The two reproduce at an incredibly fast speed, posing a constant threat to human bases.

"We have to find a way to start a big war and eliminate the monsters around the Southwest Fortress!"

Lin Ye's eyes became deep, and his whole body exuded an icy cold aura.

next to.

Li Huwei was silent as a cicada, not daring to say anything, just staring quietly into the distance.

Based on the previous distribution of monsters, Lin Ye already had a plan in mind.

However, the prerequisite for starting this action is to eliminate the threats to the major fortresses one by one.

Look up.

In sight, ordinary men followed the soldiers and were cleaning up the battlefield.

The battlefield where the beast tide receded was littered with broken limbs and huge pits.

There are many places that transport vehicles cannot reach at all, and monster materials can only be transported slowly by manpower.

These men carried the loads on their shoulders and backs, and no one cared even though their faces and bodies were covered in the blood of monsters.

Almost everyone had a smile on their face, as if they had survived a disaster.

In this way, they transported the monster materials bit by bit and piece by piece to where military vehicles could drive.

Then they go back and continue moving... and the cycle repeats itself.

Suddenly, Lin Ye's eyes froze.

Not far to the left front.

A group of about three hundred teenagers, aged between ten and seventeen or eighteen, ran out of the fortress.

Then, led by a team of soldiers, they quickly entered the battlefield.

They were doing the same job of carrying monster materials.

These passionate smiles couldn't help but infect Lin Ye, making him feel warm in his heart.

What kind and honest people they are! This is exactly why the warriors chose to defend the fortress to the death!
"After the beast tide crisis gradually eases, Daxia should also resume education."

Looking at the busy figures, Lin Ye couldn't help but speak.

"Education... learning..."

Hearing this, a hint of bitterness appeared on Li Huwei's face.

How could he not know what the third commander of Daxia said?
However, the reality is that even a good cook cannot cook without rice.

The hideous monsters and cruel reality tore and trampled his ideals.

According to incomplete statistics, in the four years since the catastrophe broke out.

Across Daxia, at least 130 small and medium-sized fortresses and over a thousand shelters were submerged by the beast tide.

Hundreds of millions of survivors were turned into piles of bones and corpses were scattered all over the ground.

However, what is more terrifying than the beast tide on land is the beast tide formed by sea monsters.

Every time a beast tide breaks out in the sea, it can lead to the destruction of many human bases in coastal areas.

The destruction of New York is the cruelest example!
Under the impact of endless sea monsters, any defense and firepower seem too pale and powerless.

Even the United States, the world's leading technological power, is still powerless and can only watch its fall.

There is no point in talking about education until the threat of monsters is resolved.

Thinking of this, Li Huwei looked at Lin Ye with a complicated expression and said word by word: "Commander Lin, when have we not thought about education issues?"

"It's just that... the country is currently busy dealing with the monsters and has no spare energy to rebuild the economy and culture."

"The military and government were able to quickly build many shelters and fortresses. Maintaining basic order has taken all the efforts of the entire Daxia."

"As a country and a nation face life and death, culture, education, politics, economy... all these have to take a back seat."

Hear this.

Although Lin Ye didn't say anything, he already accepted it in his heart.

"Even if we want to restore the basic operation of the country and restart education, we need to win several big victories in succession and have a solid foundation before we can implement it."

"Otherwise, everything is just castles in the air..."

After saying this, Li Huwei sighed deeply.

Lin Ye also had a serious look in his eyes.

Now facing the heavy threats from monsters, the entire country of Daxia is basically in a state of stagnation.

In the four years since the disaster, the wars to resist the beast tide have consumed too many of the country's resources and manpower, material resources and financial resources.

It’s like the whole country is mobilizing its forces to start a tug-of-war with the monster tribe!

The result of this is that Daxia has not made any progress in other areas and is even regressing.

"Yes, we must win a few big battles and hurt the beast tide! We've scared them!"

"This will give us time to rebuild the country. Otherwise, no matter how much we say, it will be useless."

After saying this, the sadness in Lin Ye’s eyes flashed away.

Instead, there was an unwavering look of determination and a surging fighting spirit.

"I believe this day will come soon! I also believe that Daxia will get better and better under the leadership of Commander Lin!"

As if infected by the young god of war's emotions, Li Huwei took a deep breath and said solemnly.

"Yeah!" Lin Ye nodded.

Looking at the soldiers and ordinary people who were busy like bees in the distance, a gratified smile appeared on his face.

"Although the monster disaster threatens us all the time, it will only make us in Daxia more united."

Looking at the rising scorching sun, Lin Ye jumped down and flew away into the distance.

At the same time, his voice came from mid-air: "Wait for me here, I'll be back soon!"

"..."
