Planet of Sand and Oasis of Iron

Chapter 419 418. It is really unacceptable that the deliberate plan is not a big deal.
Sefer sat cross-legged on a transparent glass panel... which was the board she was lying on before. In front of her was a huge floating map.

Around her, everyone sat in a circle, but it looked like they were planning to eat her for lunch.

"This is what they call sitting at the main table when eating. You are the main course."

As Tien said this with a smile, he was about to look up from under the table, but unfortunately, there was a heavy and thick device body underneath the panel, and he couldn't see anything.

Cypher ignored her and only said to Leka, "Her idea about attacking and defending is a good one, but we don't have air units, not now, and never will."

So they could only dig tunnels and break through the walls directly from various places. Although the walls of the fortress were indestructible... the enemies they had to face were not flesh and blood.

Although your turtle shell is really hard, your opponent is the kind of person who doesn't care no matter how many units die. How should you fight?
Sefer lowered his head and thought for a while, then suddenly opened a small window.

"I've also intercepted the communications of the people in the fortress. If you're bored, you can help me monitor these communications."

To give them something to do instead of staring at him, Seifer glanced at his junior who was wrapping his hair around his neck and seemed very happy.

"Theoretically, the flow of time here should be faster than outside. So even if we slowly wear down the opponent's defenses, it won't take as long as outside after the phenomenon dissipates."

"But that's just in theory, Red Crossbow. The people from the entertainment company are acting recklessly here. I've already observed them when I came out. They're particularly well-adapted to the environment here."

Why adapt? There are only two possibilities.

Either they frequently enter and exit this time period of the giant vision, or... they come from the vision.

The second possibility is very low, because even Leica has not collected any information from the person with the vision - Lin Shenxue pulled his collar a little uncomfortably and turned his head to look away.

At this point, it seems a bit inappropriate to call myself a person of vision.

Just as everyone was looking at the map, as if they were playing some kind of map layout game, Seifer suddenly raised his hand and opened a new communication window.

-By the way, at this time the Great Steel Wall had completely lost contact with the fortress, and the area between them was filled with a large number of new mechanical monsters, and it was unable to take care of itself.

When will these things penetrate the firepower network of the Great Wall of Steel and open the people inside like cans...it all depends on Sefer's mood.

The eyes of several people in the Yorozuya - especially Alu - were sparkling. Regardless of who this beautiful girl was, her behavior was really cool!

He's too much of a villain... No, not a villain, but a super villain, the kind of person who is unique in the world and can extinguish any flame called "hope"!
Cypher didn't have time to care about what she was worshipping. Feldrich's voice came over the comms: "Mercenary, I don't know what you're playing in there, but we don't have much time."

"In addition to waiting for the energy of the vision to dissipate on its own, you can also use your subjective initiative to make the vision deviate from its intended direction."

Seifer immediately asked back, "This is only possible with an unconstrained vision, right?"

"Yes, because there is no fixed anomaly, it is possible to have an unpredictable ending. How far have you progressed now?"

Without waiting for her reply, Feldrich continued, "He probably just came out of the fortress and was attacked by strange black machines. Don't worry, you can consider tackling a manufacturing node twenty kilometers away from the fortress."

"I...well, I'm trying something else."

It was difficult to explain to her that I was operating the villain unit in the vision, just like an evil mastermind who was destroying all of humanity and opening a can.

I quickly asked her what the situation was like outside.

From Feldrich's words that seemed to show off his imminent victory, Sefer knew that the situation outside was still stalemate, especially at the moment when all the defense forces inside the academy city were thrown into the vision.

At present, the resistance forces in the surrounding satellite cities are optimistically estimated to be short-lived. Although we must show mercy, as long as the corporate mercenaries come up, the combat effectiveness of those wetware machines will be just so-so.

"You asked me to end the vision earlier, but I'm not in such a hurry now. It's very likely that the one who is really anxious to end the vision is the entertainment company." Over there, Feldrich thought for a moment and found that there was some truth in it.

"...It seems you're not crazy. Then change your mission and try to prolong this vision until I tell you that the door is repaired."

With that the communication ended, Cypher shrugged slightly and continued to observe the fortress.

The firepower of humans is really very fierce. There are dense guns and artillery at close range, and various large-caliber mortars in the city as means at long distances. All mechanical monsters approaching the fortress are almost reduced to fragments.

The people inside haven't sent out their machines to decapitate the command node, which means they can really sit still.

"...Laika, have we taken in all the people who were sent out of the fortress so far?"

"Well, by now, most of the personnel have been contained, but some have not made it..."

To be honest, the intelligence from the human side is almost one-way transparent to this side. The reason why there is no sudden surge to protect all the 'frozen meat' is mainly because there is a problem with the management system.

It was opposed to any deeper modifications to the mechanical monsters, stubbornly demanding that they be modified only within a certain range, a range that was just enough to put a sense of oppression and urgency on humans without actually crushing them...

We can only wait and see who has more patience.

Fortunately, those idiots in the entertainment company still believe that the current large number of monsters attacking each other is because the giant anomaly is currently in an unfixed state.

And he was busy with other things, and it seemed that he was planning to drag it out, but just in case, he should monitor closely - Xiao Tao suddenly stood up.

"Teacher! I saw something strange!"

"What phenomenon?"

"A large portion of the communication channel's bandwidth has disappeared. Why is that?"

Everyone looked at her. Leica frowned and confirmed, "The channel is well hidden, but with this amount of bandwidth, it's more like a real-time video message."

Seifer: "Video message, probably just doing their old job again. Maybe these people at the entertainment company... really all came from a vision."

They are willing to risk their lives to do these pranks. Perhaps they have some deeper reasons, or they have some kind of ideology.

But none of this matters. What Sefer is about to do now is to interrupt all their thoughts, destroy all their plans, and then find these people along the Internet cable.

These goals and behaviors are filled with "meaningless" guys, just like cockroaches, which can be replaced but are endless. Their existence is disgusting.

At the same time, gunfire rang out in the node city plate-controlled area - all areas were involved in this conflict.

After gaining contact with the outside world and integrating the information, Seifer suddenly asked a question.

"Afu, let me ask you... What would happen if the vision existed, but the space for it to unfold disappeared?"

"Not very good. You will be stuck in the vision and unable to leave until the next vision energy bursts out and spits out the lost people."

So the entertainment company...could this be their idea?
"Change the action. I'm going to speed up the end of the vision. As long as the people in the academy city don't lose too many lives, it's okay even if I collapse the vision early, right?"

"Yes."

Then we can only change our policy.
