However, just as Sir Yeager Soback was wondering when he could turn his generation's lifetime title into a hereditary title, he and his comrades had already passed the main road in the city and could even see
Go to the central tower building of the city in the distance - this is also the tallest building in the industrial town on this remote planet.
At this time, a sudden change occurred.
Countless thunder and lightning fell from the sky, hitting the city and directly forming various grotesque and terrifying monsters.
Although most of these young knights are children of famous families, they are unlikely to be familiar with mystical knowledge, let alone experience in conquering the virtual realm. Faced with this scene, they were naturally caught off guard.
As for Colonel Soback, who came from the lowest background and had never seen this kind of world, of course he could only look confused.
He didn't even react until a tentacle monster in the form of a Yaxu beast started baring its teeth and claws next to him.
Of course, this monster transformed from a fragment of the virtual realm was quickly broken down into electric charges by Baron Haiyeluo next to him, who raised his ax in his hand.
"Sure enough, it should be the Yaxu Beast... It's just like what the book said, it's no big deal." Baron Haiyeluo didn't expect it to go so smoothly. He paused for a second and then slashed with the power battle ax wrapped in aura.
He struck at the Yaxu beast next to him that looked like a three-headed lizard, and with one blow he blasted this anti-human monster into pieces again.
The Yaxu beast is indeed ferocious, and its various strange shapes are indeed quite powerful. If it really comes to an ordinary town, the drama will probably be the Sphinx version of "The Mist". But in Phi
In front of the astral knight with the heraldry machine, he is not really a dangerous enemy.
Baron Haiyeluo's actions made the knights quickly realize this. As a result, these elite psychic tactics also quickly realized that the strict training they had received before seemed to include when encountering similar situations.
Action Guidelines.
They turned the heraldic machine's external public speaking equipment to the extreme, sounded the alarm, loudly informed all citizens to evacuate, and ordered the city police and community workers to open the isolation shields. At the same time, they reorganized the battle formation, and still
A team of four is a standard combat unit that continues to advance along the current main road, clearing out all monsters it senses and rescuing people.
The actions of the Astral Knights were indeed very smooth. The number of various Yaxu beasts and Void Realm ghosts they destroyed along the way soon exceeded a thousand. Not only did their own side not suffer any casualties, the damage to the city was also minimized.
Although they achieved brilliant results, they still did not understand the situation.
However, the knights were still in a good mood when they saw many citizens climbing to the community walls and windows of high-rise buildings, cheering loudly.
To put it bluntly, isn’t the reason why you became an Astral Knight just for today’s scene?
More importantly, after such a battle, everyone has achieved real military achievements. This is an advantage that no matter how large-scale an exercise is, there will be no benefits.
Of course, compared to ordinary knights, the older Baron Hayero thought more, and said to his partner: "Yeager, I have to thank you for this. If you had made a decision later,
We will not enter the city so quickly, nor will we go into battle as soon as the change occurs. The damage caused by these virtual monsters to ordinary people is very small, but if they are left for just a few minutes at night, the consequences will be disastrous."
Having said this, he pondered for a moment and said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "You haven't thought of this for a long time, right?"
"Sir, who do you think I am? I'm just a second-level person!" Soback said helplessly.
What's more, in this situation, even the big guys on the cloud can't be accurate to the minute, right?
"Indeed. So this is luck." Baron Haiyeluo's laughter was more sincere and friendly: "Isn't this more powerful? Techniques can be learned, martial arts can be tempered, and the spiritual star ring can also be increased.
, but things like luck are gifts from the universe! How can we mortals understand it? Compared with a comrade with outstanding ability, a comrade with excellent luck may be able to let me live a little longer.
Time? I want to live until the day I retire."
Soback was speechless. He didn't even know what expression he should put on.
"What's our next move?" the Baron asked again. Although he is theoretically the commander of these knights, he has always respected Sobek to the ultimate extent.
"Still, we have to go to the central tower..." Soback said subconsciously. Of course, he didn't know what to do, so he had to instinctively act according to the original plan. As soon as the words came out, he felt that something was wrong and hurriedly made up for it.
Said: "The surrounding situation is still unclear. If we take over the central tower earlier, we can activate the city's early warning radar, and maybe we can provide some fire support to other places."
The Baron thought for a while and felt that there seemed to be no problem, but he couldn't help but ask: "There are many important industrial and mining facilities around this city, and there are indeed some heavy artillery that can be used in open spaces. However, they have not been used for a long time.
Already."
"Let's take a look first." Soback said helplessly: "Let's take a look first and then talk."
The remaining knights continued to clear out the monsters, while Soback and Ye Hailuo led five combat groups with a total of twenty knights to the city's central control tower. This is a skyscraper over two hundred meters tall.
In addition to transmitting and receiving various types of antennas, the antenna on the top of the tower can also support a city-wide shield - of course, this function has not been used for twenty or thirty years.
We all know that the Extreme Sector is the empire's frontline against the Galactic Predators. In the past, when facing the invasion of these cosmic nomads, this central tower was the planetary defense headquarters for most of Sarna. Of course,
These military functions have also been suspended for a long time. Now, the entire building has been converted to civilian use, including the Crystal City Government, the city's fire and traffic command center, and a television station.
Like most city plans, the front of the central building is a square, which is the center of the city. In the center of the square, there is also a nearly ten-meter-high statue of Emperor Eliasel riding a horse and whipping his whip, which is regarded as the symbol of the city.
landmark.
...Of course, the number of statues of Emperor Elithel in the entire empire may have nine figures, and they are not even landmarks.
However, at this moment, the mighty and domineering statue of the Emperor had turned into ruins. The dragon horse the Emperor was riding had been broken into several pieces. The dragon's head fell into the fountain, staring wetly, leaving a sad expression.
The dragon's body has been scattered everywhere and can no longer be identified. Only half of the buttocks are left on the pedestal.
As for the body of the Emperor on the dragon's back, I really couldn't find it. After a closer look, I finally saw the statue of the Emperor with its upper body among the flowers in the flower garden nearby. Only its lower body was exposed, pointing straight to the sky, and it was still broken.
No, one of the emperor's legs is still hanging on the shelf of a decorative street lamp nearby.
The knights felt very upset. They felt that it would be a bit disrespectful to let the emperor's upper body stuck in the flowers. But, wouldn't it be even more disrespectful to touch the emperor's broken body with such rough hands and feet?
In addition, what troubles them is of course not just the broken statue of the Great Emperor, but also the culprit that caused all this.
At this time, one head had nine grotesque heads and nine steel whip-like tails. The body looked a bit like a feline beast, but it could walk upright. It was nearly ten meters tall when it stood up. If you count those few
The tail is at least twenty meters long.
Needless to say, this is still a guy who can make people shudder just by looking at his appearance. The knights present have never seen a monster like this before, that is, Baron Ye Hailuo, who has systematically read the "Void Realm Monster Manual"
Never seen it.
However, even the most novice knight can feel the pressure like a tsunami from the giant beast.
They could feel that this was not an enemy that could be easily dealt with just by the pressure that made everyone barely able to stand.
"Ah, by the way, the Yaxu beast is a convergence effect!" Ye Hailuo suddenly understood something: "Everyone, hurry up..."
Colonel Soback also gave the order decisively: "The first to third groups are ready to respond to the enemy, and the fourth and fifth groups are ready to respond. Expand according to the A formation for dealing with legion-level monsters!"
He was a member of the fifth group, so he didn't have to fight hard. He felt that no matter how powerful the monster was, he could still fly a kite if he stayed far away.
I want everyone to run away quickly! Ye Hailuo couldn't help but look at his comrades. Just when he was about to say something, all nine heads of this monster let out a deafening roar at the same time. Each of its heads roared.
The sounds are all different, but when combined together, in addition to being more ferocious, they also have a more eerie rhythm that makes people tremble.
Every knight present felt that the whistling sound was resounding deep in his soul, and his brain suddenly felt as if he had been stabbed by a needle, and the dizzy pain was instantaneous.
Baron Ye Hailuo took a deep breath, unfolded a halo of will, and then felt a little better.
However, he only has three rings, and the strength and coverage area of his halo ability are limited, and it only affects a limited number of comrades around him.
Just when he already felt that this battle was very dangerous and was thinking about how to get as many of his comrades to evacuate as possible, a roar like a dragon's roar came from the sky. It was not very fierce, but it seemed high-pitched and majestic. In an instant,
Then he suppressed the monster's mental roar. Even though the knights were inside the heraldry machine, their hearts were shaken, but the pain that made them almost faint immediately dissipated.
Soback subconsciously looked up in the direction from which the dragon's roar came, only to see a white light piercing down like a divine sword descending from the sky, piercing the giant beast on the spot.
The nine-headed giant beast froze on the spot, and even the roars on the nine ferocious heads were frozen on its face. Then, there was only a "pop" sound, and the giant beast suddenly scattered into pieces.
A pile of energy factors made a buzzing sound like an out-of-control electric charge, and then completely fell apart.
The giant beast that made twenty fully armed astral knights feel like they were facing a formidable enemy was actually torn into pieces in the blink of an eye.
Immediately afterwards, I saw a figure descending from the sky like a god, and landed leisurely without a trace of fireworks. It was a man who looked to be no more than forty years old, with sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, a long body, and a handsome figure, like an immortal.
But it was Tantai Jing.
Several knights quickly recognized each other's identity and fell silent for a while.
The disciples of these famous families all know that this is Lan Jiufeng's eldest disciple and the current head of the Spiritual Research Society.
Now, Lan Jiufeng, who has caused nightmares for the extraordinary people of the empire for nearly half a century, is already over 90 years old, and Mei Ruoxi is over 80 years old, and will withdraw from the stage of history in a dozen years at most. And here we are.
At that time, the biggest enemy that the grown-up Astral Knights had to face was none other than the "Seven Sons of the Spirit Research Society" headed by Tantai Jing.
To put it bluntly, any Astral Knight who is born into a well-known family will grow up in an education where the "Seven Sons of Lingyan" are regarded as the villains.
Of course, since the last God of War Festival ended, someone has successfully replaced the "Seven Spiritual Research Sons" in the hearts of the young knights, but didn't that person also become a member of the Spiritual Research Society?
In short, Lan Jiufeng's disciples and grandsons are the "old enemies" of the Astral Knights. In terms of hatred, they may not be as good as the "sworn enemies" in the alliance, but in terms of attention, they may be even higher.
Now, the big villain of the old enemy group has appeared, but judging from the performance of the first meeting... it seems that he is an ally, right?
What is the impermanence of things? This is it.
"I am Tantai Jing, a member of the Community Military Observation Group." Tantai Jing was very calm: "Excuse me, who of you is the leader."
The knights looked at Ye Hailuo and then at Soback. Ye Hailuo and Soback were looking at each other. After looking at each other for nearly ten seconds, the former finally sighed silently and said: "I am
Lord Knight of the Astral Knights, Colonel of the Imperial Military Police, Baron Udel Yehairo. Thank you for your support, Master Tantai."
He took the lead in giving a military salute, and the other knights could only follow after hesitating for a moment.
There is nothing we can do about it. Although Tantai Jing is a "commoner" without a title, he is also a saint with the sixth ring. In the world of extraordinary beings, this is a more prominent status symbol than any title, official position, or title.
.
Even the emperors of the previous empires would never take advantage of their ministers who were of higher rank than themselves, and always gave them enough face.
These disciples from famous families are all decent people. No matter whether they are feeling mmp in their hearts or not, their outward etiquette will never be out of character.
Tantai Jing also bowed his head slightly and returned a salute to the knights. He ignored the entanglements of these young elites of the empire and went straight to the point: "This thing is a monster formed by the aggregation of Yaxu beasts. It can only penetrate into the virtual realm of the main world."
It will only occur with low probability when the energy begins to weaken. To put it bluntly, it is an emergency response. I have just felt that the space cracks leading to the virtual realm have been repaired, which constitutes the possibility of virtual realm aggregation.
The theoretical upper limit of this kind of polymerized monster will reach six rings. If there are dozens of them, even I will find it difficult."
Dozens of them? Even if there are just a few, the city cannot be saved. Your sixth ring is easy to say, but among our eighty knights, the highest one is Baron Ye Hailuo's third ring!
Soback felt dizzy after hearing this, and once again had the urge to run away on the spot.
...No, wait, that monster just now was a sixth-level monster? But it was defeated by Tantai Jing? Then how strong is he? It shouldn't be a big problem if one person defeats all of us, right?
Soback felt that his logic was very smooth. Looking at the Earthlings opposite him, his heart suddenly jumped.
In fact, Tantai Jing said that the upper limit is six rings, but he did not say that the guy he just killed in an instant was six rings. Naturally, he didn't know Soback's inner struggle, so he directly took out a large number of cards.
Such big yellow pieces of paper: "Is there any way to spread them all over the city in the shortest possible time?"
