In the open wilderness on all sides, there is a fortress that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

The 15.7-kilometer-long tunnel is connected to concrete bunkers and trenches, and is equipped with hemispherical rotating armored turrets, anti-aircraft gun positions, anti-tank gun positions, and heavy machine gun positions.

This is the Legion's largest military base in Oasis No. 2, called Fort Horn. It was built by General Klass, the previous commander-in-chief of the Legion in Luoxiatian Province.

It is said to be able to station an army of one million people!

In order to meet the huge material needs of this fortress, General Klaas not only arranged to build an aqueduct from a nearby river embankment to the fortress, but also built spacious roads with lanes on all sides of the fortress.

Supplies can be transported to Fort Horn by water, by road, or by air by plane or airship.

Once Oasis No. 2 encounters the threat of invasion, the troops and supplies stationed in this fortress can be transported to the front line by road in the shortest possible time.

However, it is like 㫇.

This fortress, which extends in all directions, is blocked.

The Alliance Skeleton Corps did not storm the fortress, but watched them retreat into the fortress and then cut off the water channel leading to the fortress.

It stands to reason that a fortress of this size would have reserves for at least one million troops for more than three years. However, in Griffin's original plan, he never thought that this military base would one day be used as a defensive fortress.

Coupled with the tight fighting situation on the front line, most of the supplies were sent to the front line. The domestic product surplus of the Falcon Kingdom was not enough to complete the material reserve work of this fortress.

This also resulted in the 50,000-strong army retreating to the fortress having less than two months of food left, and the supply of fresh water was also in jeopardy.

But this is not the most deadly.

The real killer is the lack of ammunition.

Recently, the William Industrial Zone has been occupied by the Alliance troops, and the supplies sent from the direction of Triumph City are probably not going to reach them.

Except for Griffin and those clones who are not very smart, any Willant person can feel that they are already standing on the edge of the cliff...

"I heard the Adjudicator is coming."

"...Why the Arbitrator? Shouldn't an offensive airship be sent over?"

"I heard that His Majesty the Commander-in-Chief has no plans to use troops east of the Great Desert. The border across the sea, the land in the far north, and the wilderness in the south are all more important than the land thousands of miles away. The last expedition was by General Klass. Walking alone..."

"How could this happen..."

"No wonder...we haven't received reinforcements until now."

Soldiers whispering could be heard everywhere in the military camp.

Sitting at the door of the tent eating a box lunch, the warlord silently wrote it down, planning to post it to the forum as a piece of fun for the next day.

His job is very simple these days.

The main purpose is to mark the supply location in this fortress, wait for the bombs to fall from the sky, and then make an assessment report on the results of the air raid on the Goblin Corps.

It is not easy to lock the warehouse for hoarding supplies, especially now that there is a serious shortage of supplies. The scarce supplies are stored in scattered places, and if you get close to the nearby area, you will be pulled for questioning.

This cannot be explained clearly by saying "Sorry, I went to the wrong place".

As a "non-Vailantian", Warlander is very self-aware of his nose, and of course he will not do anything conspicuous.

Besides, it's not necessary.

We can't find the supply warehouse, but it's still easy to find canteens and mobile kitchens.

As long as a 100-kilogram aerial bomb is thrown nearby while those Weiland people are eating, it will be enough to lift all the pots, pans, and people in line.

As for the assessment of the results of the air strikes, it is even easier.

He didn't even need to confirm on the spot, he just answered other Weirant people shouting about the content and that was it.

Thanks to this.

His lingua franca now sounds more and more like the accent from the west of the desert.

However, this trick has not been working well recently.

The frequent visits of alliance aircraft made the Weirant people suspect that there were drones taking aerial photos in the sky. Not only did they use signal jamming guns to take pictures every now and then, but they also canceled centralized dining and changed to "takeout delivery".

I don’t know which genius came up with the idea.

The warlords couldn't help but give that guy a thumbs up...

Sitting next to the battlefield atmosphere team member, Penny's face looked a little haggard, with a sad look on her brows. She was silent for a long time while staring at the lunch box in her hand, and then suddenly spoke.

"General Griffin has been assassinated."

As he was stuffing bread into his mouth, the warlord almost choked, and it took him a lot of effort to keep himself calm. He was a ruthless person who didn't talk much.

"...Assassinated?!"

"Well... someone installed explosives under his chair. If he hadn't arrived a few minutes earlier and late, the corporate and alliance assassins would have almost succeeded."

The warlord said to himself that it was not necessarily the Alliance people who wanted him dead, at least the managers never gave him an order to assassinate high-ranking military officials.

"...Has the assassin been caught?"

"no."

Penny took a deep breath, held her head in her hands, ran her fingers through her hair, and opened and closed her lips in a low prayer.

"...I hope there won't be any trouble."

She was worried not about Griffin's safety, but about the future direction of this war.

Because the sudden change in Falcon City happened so suddenly, she was not prepared at all and had no time to leave the front line. She could only retreat here with the large troops.

I hope I won’t be caught by the Alliance people...

The military camp itself is a place full of violence, especially the front lines closest to death. As a reporter for Triumph News, she was well aware of the cruelty that the Wealant people did to other survivors on the front line, and she was not surprised how the Wealand people's enemies hated them.

Those who fell into the hands of the natives usually did not end well. She had seen photos from her colleagues... that was simply cruel.

Even thinking about it makes me shudder.

The warlord wanted to comfort her casually. There was nothing to worry about being captured by the Alliance. The Alliance's discipline was so much higher than that of the Legion.

Let alone prisoners.

He didn't touch the few slaves that were sent to his tent before, for fear of violating the article in the Player's Handbook about "forced" sex.

But then he thought about it, he was an undercover agent, and it seemed inappropriate to say nice things about "the enemy", so he changed his words again.

"No, there's me."

Penny's cheeks turned red at the unexpected words, and the corners of Penny's mouth unconsciously curled up into a smile.

This guy usually talks little and is like a piece of wood, but he always pops out one or two words that make people blush and make their heart beat.

She has heard many similar words, even prettier than this, and many flattering words, but those men often only talk verbally, and even after saying the disgusting vows of eternal love, they turn around and get into the tent where foreign women are kept. ...Not only will this not make her feel any sense of security, it will only make her feel sick.

But this pangolin man is completely different.

He is more powerful than some of the Valantians, but does not have the arrogance, rudeness and a series of bad habits of the Valantians.

Just like his name, which is so simple and full of mountain atmosphere, his mind is as pure as the snow on the mountain. He is only loyal to His Majesty, the commander's orders, and as a warrior. Glory.

Even though everyone is confused about the future and frustrated with the current situation, there is almost no trace of depression on his face.

Even at this juncture when he was about to be defeated, he could still say the words "There is no one but me" calmly and calmly.

Only when she heard this sentence from his mouth, she could feel the sincerity without a trace of falsehood.

"...Thank you. I'm very happy to hear your words. However, your sword should belong to His Majesty the Marshal. There is no need to hesitate for my sake."

Gently shaking her dark brown hair, Penny said in a proud voice.

"Weilant people are all warriors of heaven, no matter men or women, I will take care of myself."

General Griffin is still somewhat famous in Triumph City.

No matter how bad the situation is, she thinks it won't be too bad...

Maybe I just think too much.

The warlord didn't say anything and nodded, but he was digesting the huge amount of information in his heart.

Griffin was assassinated? !

What's going on...

At this moment, two people came not far away.

One of them is Colway, and the other is Colway's superior, and also his immediate boss after he was transferred to the officer corps--Verich, the commander of the 50,000th Corps.

Walking in front of the two of them, Velici looked at Penny sitting on the steps and said in a gentlemanly tone.

"Sorry ma'am, I have to discuss this with the pangolin. Can I take up some of his time?"

Penny stood up and smiled politely.

"No, please do whatever you want."

Perhaps because she saw that there was something important to discuss, Penny did not stop here, but walked away wisely.

Welch glanced at Penny's back as she left, and then looked around. After confirming that no one was around, he looked at Colway.

"You tell me."

"Good sir..." Colway nodded with a complicated expression, then looked at the battlefield atmosphere team who stood up, and said in a hesitant tone, "Let's go in and talk."

The warlord nodded and followed the two of them into the tent.

He didn't know why a captain of thousands and a captain of ten thousand wanted to find him, a small military adviser, but from the expression on Colway's face, he could feel that something big was about to happen.

And 80% of it has to do with myself!

"...What is it?" Looking at Colway who had not spoken for a long time, the warlord asked proactively.

"One morning, General Griffin was assassinated during the morning meeting."

The Warlander held his breath for a moment.

Seeing both of them looking at him, his thoughts started to change, and at the same time, he immediately showed a worried expression on his face.

"I just heard... It doesn't matter, General."

"It doesn't matter." Colway shook his head.

Before Comrade Pangolin could say hypocritically, "That's good," he continued with a complicated expression, "...but here's the problem."

Warlander: "...???"

"That's enough, I'll do it."

Seeing that Colwei was still circling around in circles, Velici couldn't wait any longer and took over the conversation from him. Staring at the man in front of him, the non-verbal native continued.

"I have agreed that Griffin has betrayed His Majesty the Commander-in-Chief, and the Arbitrator's appearance on the front line is the best proof!"

The Warlander held his breath.

He felt that such an association seemed a bit far-fetched, but when he thought of the situation these people were in at the moment, he understood everything in an instant.

Griffin's arbitrariness drove these mid-level officers to a dead end.

Now they have to do the same thing...

"…What do you need me to do?"

Veliki stared intently into his eyes.

"I need to confirm your loyalty to His Majesty the Handsome. Look into my eyes and tell me, are you loyal?"

Loyal?

That must be true!

He didn't realize the seriousness of the situation yet, so he thought it was triggering the branch line of battle, and reflexively raised three fingers.

"My loyalty to Your Majesty is as evident as the sun and the moon!"

Colway's eyes drifted to the side.

"Very good," Welic nodded happily, looked at the pangolin and continued, "Now, the time has come for you to be loyal to His Majesty!"

That night.

"Wasteland OL" forum.

"Generally... this is how the love story went. The captain of the 50,000th team hopes that I will kill Griffin."

The battlefield atmosphere team briefly described the incident.

Including the low morale in the Hornburg Fortress in the past two days, the popular feeling among the military, the air raids that killed suspects, etc.

Tails: "Oh! Are you going to have a BOSS battle? (✪ω✪)"

Teng Teng: "Korwei...wuwu, damn, he got hit. (⁄⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄⁄)"

Battlefield Atmosphere Group: "What a ghost!!!"

Night Ten: "Exciting. (Funny)"

Lao Yi: "Isn't it nice to say that if Griffin is killed, his adjutant will take over the position, and maybe he will raise the flag and vote. (Baring teeth)"

Battlefield Atmosphere Team: "What a hammer! The manager asked me to be an undercover agent in the legion and didn't let me kill Griffin."

Kuangfeng: "Well, it's true... It would be fine if you could kill Griffin without anyone noticing, but once someone catches you, even if everyone thanks you, you will have to be punished on the spot. "

Irena: "Not necessarily. Depending on the progress of the strategy, Kelwei might give you a chance to run away on your own. (Funny)"

Battlefield Atmosphere Team: "Hey! What about my powered armor?"

Ye Shi: "Then you have to ask the dog for planning. (Funny)"

There are really mosquitoes in WC: "How about this, you just transfer Griffin's arrangement to us, and we will help you, once and for all, the medicine will cure the disease. (bad smile)"

Fang Chang: "It's convenient. Pangolin is a real senior agent. (Squints)"

Mole on the run in the canyon: "The key is whether Griffin's death will be beneficial to the alliance."

Fang Chang: "After a rational analysis, of course the best result is that the 50,000 people are willing to surrender, but in terms of the weight of the chips, a 50,000 army surrounded by no water and food is obviously more valuable than a 50,000 army captured. valuable.”

Commander Quanshui: "+1, so for the sake of maximizing profits, if you plan to take action, it is best after the negotiation has a result. (Squints)"

Battlefield Atmosphere Group: "I'm so torn apart! T.T"

It’s so hard to be an undercover agent!

Chu Guang naturally saw the discussion on the forum, but he did not give any instructions to "Comrade Pangolin".

For this reason, no matter whether Griffin is dead or alive, the alliance will not lose, it will just be a difference between winning more and losing less.

Therefore, he gave the battlefield atmosphere team full autonomy in decision-making.

If you want to continue to act as an undercover agent, then put some effort into acting it out. If you don't want to act it out, it doesn't matter. It will be difficult for them to have a large-scale military conflict with the legion for a long time in the future. Here is what we have provided With so much high-value information, this undercover agent can be considered a complete meritorious deed.

Just when the warlord was in a dilemma, the airship from Triumph City arrived at the western suburbs of Falcon City and anchored only ten kilometers away from the nearest river embankment.

Two airships faced off in the air.

The atmosphere was tense for a moment!

Looking at the huge thing above his head, King Mongot kept praying in his heart, hoping that this thing would not fall.

Or even if you fall, don't destroy your castle.

Fortunately, the situation that the old man was worried about did not happen. Neither the Legion nor the Alliance took the lead in firing the first shot.

Obviously, not only he and the nobles around him did not want to continue fighting, but the legions far to the west of the desert also did not want to fight...

Standing at the west gate of Falcon City with a group of players, Chu Guang looked at the slowly descending elevator in the distance and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"It seems that the Legion has two brushes."

What followed the elevator down was a quadruped robot that was three stories high. Its rectangular body and hoof-shaped soles looked like a mule with its head buried in the distance, similar to the Empire in "Star Wars". Walking machines are slightly similar.

However, this thing is not a transportation tool. The 200mm cannon towering overhead emits a cold light under the scorching sun.

Of course, what is more eye-catching is the chimney with a diameter of tens of centimeters wide.

It is like a walking locomotive. The huge steel body perfectly interprets the violent aesthetics of the Wilante people, which is beautiful. The towering chimney puffs out black smoke, driving the powerful limbs to step forward slowly.

The ancient internal combustion engine power and the epoch-making avant-garde design are organically combined in him, just like the surreal diesel punk, every frame is a work of art.

Not surprisingly, it should also have deflector shields and even anti-gravity devices on its body, and the energy source of these advanced devices should be precious nuclear fusion batteries... It can be seen that the Legion has indeed inherited many elements of pre-war civilization. something.

Even if it's just parts.

And this thing also gave Chu Guang a sense of familiarity, as if it was a simple and improved version of the "Titan" in Lost Valley.

"Fuck..."

Looking at the behemoth, Ye Shi, who was wearing a light cavalry exoskeleton, couldn't help but swallowed and muttered.

"What the hell is this?"

Compared with the surprise of the players, Earl Cromwell's already dead heart has rekindled his confidence in the Willant people, and he kept talking about it.

"Bison! It's bison!"

"Bison" all-terrain armored walking machine!

A diesel and fusion hybrid war monster!

I heard that this thing is called a "quadruped train gun" in the west of the desert. A 200mm cannon equipped with an automatic loader can pour the firepower of an artillery brigade onto the target area in one minute!

It can not only be used as support equipment, but also serve as the vanguard of the attack in place of tanks. The combination of deflector shield and aerospace alloy is enough to withstand direct or indirect firepower.

As long as thousands of these land-based mechas are constantly attacking the Alliance, coupled with the human sea charge of the clone army...

Every decline will be reversed!

But Cromwell's head obviously didn't turn around, why was there only one "Bison" here.

Chu Guang knows Yu.

The governor from Triumph City was giving himself authority.

In order to put this thing on the airship, the Legion would have to dismantle at least twenty artillery pieces to make room. If you want this thing to rain down bullets with full firepower, I am afraid that you will have to build an industrial park in the desert first.

So he didn't panic at all and didn't take the steel giant in front of him to heart.

The four-legged robot advanced slowly with heavy steps and stopped less than 500 meters away from the river embankment.

I saw it slowly bending its four legs forward, pressing its square body onto the overgrown wheat field.

Surrounded by a group of tall and powerful elites, a man with a swollen nose stepped out of the hatch and stopped in front of Chu Guang.

"You are the manager of the alliance?"

Opening the visor of the power armor, Chu Guang looked at him.

"Who are you?"

"Cohen," the man raised his chin slightly and continued, "The governor of Luoxia Province appointed by His Majesty the Commander-in-Chief."

The five-star Captain of Ten Thousands is second only to the legion commander who is below one person and above ten thousand people. If he wants to go further, he can only leave the territory of the legion and open up territory for the legion.

In fact, the five-star ten thousand captain is already a quasi-legion commander in the legion itself.

The reason why Krass launched the expedition was largely to take a step further and be promoted to the fifth legion commander of the legion.

Chu Guang stared at Cohen for a moment, then introduced himself to his family in a concise manner.

"Chu Guang, the manager of Vault 404, was also the manager of the alliance."

The strength of this five-star ten thousand captain is not outstanding, just at the level of an ordinary person. However, the more than 20 Wilante people behind him are all powerful awakeners without exception!

According to the algorithm of Vault 404, their level is at least 30, and the strengthening direction should be in the two aspects of muscles and reflex nerves.

The strongest one must be level 40!

Of course, this is just his feeling.

Moreover, the strength of the body cannot be explained. The green-skinned mutants are still at level 30 per capita, and they are beaten to the ground by novice players.

While Chu Guang was looking at Cohen, Cohen was also observing him.

However, what Cohen couldn't see through was that the legendary manager of the alliance was no less powerful than the soldiers behind him.

Is it possible that even the managers of the Alliance are awakened?

Cohen was surprised when he realized this.

Although some drugs can help untalented people squeeze out the potential in their genetic code and force their awakening, few superiors will choose to take this path.

There are many ways to extend your life, and there is absolutely no need to take this path.

Compared with the increased lifespan and physical functions, awakening not only has many side effects, but also has uncontrollable risks at the fundamental level.

No one knows what will happen after your awakening level reaches 100%.

This is the "singularity" that has not yet been completed in the history of prosperity.

After suppressing the contempt in his eyes, Cohen looked at the crazy guy in front of him and said in a joking tone.

"..."Triumph" described you as a beast with three heads and six arms, but I didn't expect you to be a young boy."

Chu Guang smiled lightly and said.

"That's not the case young man, but I'm not as old as your handsome one."

Cohen chuckled, with a cold look in his eyes.

Chu Guang looked at him with a smile on his face, his aura not weak at all.

The players standing not far away were watching the excitement while whispering in the communication channel what level the BOSS was and what level the elite monsters behind him were.

King Menggot and a group of nobles who were farther away were sweating nervously, fearing that these two guys would suddenly clash with each other.

This probability is actually very small.

But by no means nothing.

At this moment, a blue light flashed in the distance. Under the escort of ten Yun Ting ornithopters, two killer whale transport planes flew towards this side one after the other.

They took off from Bicester Town and planned to land in the square in front of the castle, but they obviously saw that it was more lively here, so they flew over.

Looking at the ten Yun Ting ornithopters, Chu Guang couldn't help but smack his lips secretly.

Tu guy.

Throughout the war, the company supported him with not even ten ornithopters!

As soon as they heard that the old enemies from the west had come to negotiate ceasefires, these guys took out the treasure from the bottom of the box!

However, this is also a problem for the alliance.

The more chips they have in hand, the more the other side has to weigh the consequences of a breakdown in negotiations.

Sure enough, a look of solemnity appeared on Cohen's face.

Especially after seeing the Enterprise's Orca transport plane.

"Plasma engine..."

The guys on the east coast actually abandoned the more advanced anti-gravity devices and instead used economical and cheap "obsolete technology".

It's hard to say that this isn't aimed at the epoch-making equipment inherited by the legion, including the "phaser cannon."

It seems that the people on the east coast have never forgotten what happened a century and a half ago. They say they are letting go of the past and face the future, but in their hearts they always regard them as imaginary enemies.

Cohen's eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn't make any sign.

Under the escort of an ornithopter, the killer whale transport plane landed steadily in the golden wheat field, and the light blue plasma plume shrank back with the cone-shaped nozzle.

From the opened hatch, a group of heavily armed soldiers and a middle-aged man walked out.

Chu Guang unexpectedly discovered that the person who came was not Yi Chuan, but Wu Changnian, the deputy director of the General Management Department who had previously greeted the alliance delegation in Ideal City!

I saw the middle-aged man with neatly combed back hair and a silver-gray gown that was as straight as a mirror. There was not a single wrinkle on his body from head to toe, and the kind smile he wore in front of the camera was nowhere to be seen on his face.

It is more than 3,000 kilometers from Ideal City to Qingquan, and it is no less than 5,000 kilometers to here... Chu Guang calculated with his fingers, this trip is really far enough.

Staring intently at Cohen who was standing not far away, Wu Changnian ignored the war machine not far away and the airship in the distance, and led a group of soldiers behind him to stop near the crowd.

"...I am Wu Changnian, deputy director of the General Management Department. On behalf of the Supreme Council of the Enterprise, I make stern representations to you and demand that you immediately release the Pioneer and all its crew members!"

"Otherwise, your actions will be seen as a provocation to the ancient contract, and we will no longer hold back!"

Looking at the angry middle-aged man, Cohen said indifferently.

"You also arrested quite a few of us."

Instead of being angry, Wu Changnian laughed and let out a haha.

"If you know what you are doing, just do it."

Cohen's eyes narrowed.

The atmosphere on both sides was like a gasoline barrel with a match floating in it, as if a spark could set the entire wheat field on fire.

The tense atmosphere was even stronger than the previous confrontation between the Legion and the Alliance!

Chu Guang suddenly found that he seemed to have turned into a small transparency.

Neither Cohen nor Wu Changnian focused on him, but stared directly at each other.

But that’s okay.

Chu Guang hopes that they will never care about him.

The grudges and disputes a century and a half ago had nothing to do with him, and he had no interest in getting involved.

He just wants to get his share.

It is also the share that belongs to everyone in the alliance.

At this time, another ray of light appeared in the northeast direction.

Cohen's brows frowned slightly, as did Wu Changnian, who was looking at him. The two of them looked in that direction involuntarily.

I saw a long shuttle-shaped aircraft approaching the edge of the river embankment at a speed of nearly Mach 1, and then two flashing arcs of electricity were ejected from the bottom, and it stopped suddenly in the air with incredible acceleration.

However, something probably went wrong.

The long shuttle-shaped aircraft failed to stop the car and fell straight into the wheat field below, with the rear half of its butt shoveled directly to the ground.

Fortunately, this was a wheat field outside the city, with soft soil and wheat ears as a buffer, so the aircraft was not damaged or destroyed.

The guard behind him wanted to step forward to block Cohen, but the latter raised his hand to stop him.

"No need."

The shape of this aircraft...

He always felt a little familiar.

As if confirming his guess, a door opened on the side of the aircraft.

I saw a middle-aged man wearing a blue-trimmed T-shirt holding the door frame and forcing himself to calmly walk out.

"Ahem! I'm a little late..."

Behind him were two android bodyguards.

They are obviously different from the company's androids. Whether it is appearance or temperament, they are closer to pure tools - or weapons.

"Who are you?" Cohen frowned.

"My dear Li Ke, I am a B-level researcher at the college. Are you the representative of the legion?" A friendly smile appeared on Li Ke's face, he cleared his throat and continued, "Everyone is tired after fighting for so long. Come on, let’s sit down and talk.”

The atmosphere fell into silence.

Or...

There was just a hint of embarrassment.

Li Ke obviously felt it himself, so he looked around anxiously.

Finally, he found the man wearing blue power armor and immediately cast his eyes over there for help.

Of course Chu Guang saw this guy. After all, he invited him here, but he was still a little confused in his heart.

This guy hasn't interacted with Cohen long enough for him to understand.

After all, they just arrived in Luoxia Province and got off the airship.

However, what he didn't understand was why even the people in the company were confused by this guy's arrival, as if they didn't expect it at all.

Suddenly, Chu Guang suddenly realized something.

Could it be that Li Kezhi has never even had a phone call with anyone from the company?

He only had unilateral contact with Griffin and himself who were facing each other on the front line...

Chu Guang was shocked when he realized this.

Tu guy.

You can do the most with the least money.

This brother is so talented!

This person's identity could already be seen from the long shuttle-shaped aircraft, but Wu Changnian just didn't understand why the people from Mingqi Academy were here.

The council had not discussed this matter, and he did not want to decide the diplomatic stance with the college alone, so he coughed lightly and said vaguely.

"The academy... is a rare visitor."

As for Cohen's reaction, it was completely unkind and could even be described as unceremonious.

Staring coldly at the B-level researcher who was standing there laughing, he laughed at Yu with a sarcastic voice.

"Tired? Haha, do you think we are slugs born in the swamp?"

"Whether we continue to fight or not is none of your business."
