Under the night, fires surged into the sky. This is the southern border of the Song Empire. Seventy-two forts formed a solid buffer zone in the Chaos Fallen Area outside the country. The defense line of the Chaos Demon has been retreating in the past few months. Human beings have the hope of regaining lost land for the first time after being oppressed for hundreds of years.
However, this hope is based on the blood of thousands of players. The Great Wall Garrison, a military organization that can be traced back to the pre-Qin era, passed away by the last indigenous member, and the flag still stood on the shoulders of players in the Loess Zone, standing on the flagpole of each fortress.
Seventy-two forts are like seventy-two stabilizing needles blocking a river. Each fortress is a work of art that perfectly integrates science and magic. Countless scientific officials and alchemists communicate in a safe rear. Their thoughts constantly collide, learn from each other, and take the essence and remove the dross.
A total of 30,000 well-trained players were stationed in these seventy-two fortresses, and thousands of rangers patrolled among these fortresses, killing all movable creatures. In the sky, hundreds of airships were in groups of three or three, covering each other, forming an air defense line.
In order to solve the problem of instability of the player's communication system, they equipped the signal flares so that the Rangers can call for air support at any time in the fortress area.
Four hours ago, seven reconnaissance teams arranged outside the fortress area suddenly lost contact, and three other reconnaissance teams released orange-yellow signal flares representing the highest alarm signal. Only one of the three squads finally successfully returned to the outer fortress, and only four of the twelve experienced players came back alive.
"A large number of chaotic demons were found to gather, mainly the terror-abuse army. The number of bloodlettingers we observed was more than 500, and the number of corrupted humans exceeded 3,000. The phenomenon of blood mist condensation occurred." One of the players stood behind the isolation belt with scars and blood stains on their bodies and reported to the fortress guards: "We saw that the third and seventh team were attacked by bloodlettingers. They suddenly appeared in the blood mist. There was no way to warn us. The captain asked us to disperse into three groups to increase the chance of escape."
"Are you sure that suddenly appeared in the blood mist? Did you witness it with your own eyes?" The commander of the fortress appeared soon and asked the survivors for further verification.
"I'm sure, because the blood mist appeared very suddenly, we decided to narrow the distance between the teams to prevent accidents. At that time, we and the third and seventh teams were covering each other and gathered for two kilometers. I was responsible for monitoring the surrounding environment of the third team." Survivors reported: "I saw three bloodleppers appear out of thin air among the twelve members of the third team. They seemed to be there long ago. Half of the third team members were knocked down without even the time to react."
This news was so important that the fortress commander immediately realized that the new feature of the Chaos Demon might cause an unexpected blow to the entire defense line, and he had to report it immediately.
"How is his injuries?" the commander asked the military police beside him: "How long does it take to be isolated?"
"For one week, they were directly exposed to blood mist, which was not applicable to the minimum quarantine period, and they were a few survivors. According to regulations, I had to isolate them separately for a period of time." The captain of the military police shook his head: "I hope they are safe and sound. If the Chaos Light can corrupt us by contacting the blood mist, then we don't have to fight this war."
The commander left in a hurry and he had to send someone to send the news. This was a phenomenon that had never happened before. The frontline commander of his level already had the authority to read most of the intelligence related to chaos.
The last time the Chaos Demon Lord attacked the Europa's territory, because the internal strife came to an abrupt end, the sudden blood wave was always shadowed in the hearts of all anti-chaotic personnel. Since terror can be used to deal with the relatives of other evil gods in that way, it can naturally be used to deal with humans.
Now, the new changes that appear in the Blood Mist are most likely to be the new force born after that event. If this force appears in reality... the commander could not imagine that kind of scene.
Several teams of Rangers took the news to the four nearest fortresses around their fortresses, and they needed to spread the news outward and warn the other fortresses.
Soon, the surrounding four fortresses shot out yellow signal flares, which meant that they had received the news that they had increased their alert level and sent their own Rangers to convey the fortresses around and behind them.
Loess Zone has been trying to develop other communication methods independent of system communication, but in the occupied areas, due to the fluctuations in psionic energy, magic power chaos, all wireless transmission methods are affected, and their performance is even worse than that of the player communication system.
Wired communication is stuck in wiring. The land in the occupied area is like a rotten apple, constantly breeding various bacteria. Whether on the ground or underground, there are endless chaotic demons. Even if the Rangers keep maintaining the lines, they cannot communicate normally.
They even tried to use the airship as nodes to conduct airline wiring, but a group of uninvited corrupt crows destroyed the exposed wire overnight while the night was dark. Chaos was obviously also consciously maintaining the communication suppression of players.
The new characteristics of Blood Mist not only occurred in the southern border of the Song Empire, but the Europas on the Maginot Line also encountered the same crisis.
All the investigators who went out lost contact, and this kind of missing contact also happened in reality. The Torch Wood organization had to directly order ban people from entering the blood fog range to investigate. They now realize that the Chaos Force is playing this time.
The entire Maginot defense line has invested a lot of effort in the Europa Empire. They not only equipped various artillery guns, but also stood at the peak of man-made objects in the Old Continent in terms of magic.
The entire defense line is 37 kilometers long, firmly blocking the Chaos Demon Army's march route. In addition to the part on the ground, projects of the same scale have also been built underground to facilitate mutual support between the various sections of the city walls.
The biggest trump card of the Europa is that they built an independent magic environment with the Magino line of defense as the core. Through the magic cycle between the underground and the ground, the magic power of the Magino line of defense will not be affected by the chaotic force, and players can even use the communication system normally within the protection of the protective array.
