Release that Witch Chapter 1461: Before dawn
As it continues to get closer to Devil Kingdom Capital, the attacks on the floating islands are getting more and more fierce.
From once at the beginning of the day to once every few hours, often the last wave of attacks has not ended, and the second wave appears on the skyline again.
Only after night will there be a moment of tranquility on the floating island.
All unfinished projects and ground facilities have been shut down. The construction team has devoted all manpower and energy to repairing the runway. However, facing the tide-like offensive of the enemy, Roland did not dare to make Aerial Knight pursue more. This makes the pressure all on Eleanor.
Another change is that the number of high rank Devil is also increasing rapidly. Among them are those who are good at their own strength, but also have strange and unpredictable capabilities. The loss of the drone turret then amplifies the defensive pressure.
By the afternoon of the next day, the enemy broke into the floating island for the first time and several high rank Devil cut off the sealed sluice gate with the blade of magic power. Then Eleanor issued an intrusion alert. The God Punishment Witches armed to the teeth constitutes the second line of defense. The two sides fight in a narrow aisle. This scene is like the battlefield preset by Federation hundreds of years ago, but the positions of the two sides are completely reversed.
In the conception of Alice, God Punishment Witches is the spear tip that penetrated into the Devil position, and it is the key to destroy the obelisk and the mother body. Only by destroying the resisting enemies will humans have the hope of victory. In the floating island, Devil has become an offensive party, and God Punishment Witches only needs to block their progress.
However, their strength standards have not been lowered because of this. In a sense, God Punishment Witches is a nemesis developed for the high rank enemy. The blocked Devil is difficult to take advantage of in front of a group of ancient witchs that are similar to Exceed without fear of pain, not to mention that they still hold guns in their hands.
Though they are absolutely disadvantaged in number, they still keep the enemy out of the core area.
At the same time, there were traces of Devil troops on the ground, most of which were spider-type mutated beast. First a few scattered, but now a small piece of "black puddle" has been integrated.
"It's almost like an ant waiting for a corpse." Agatha murmured gazing at the scene below the floating island. "If we fall, they will rush up and tear everyone into pieces."
"More Devil is still on the road. It seems that the enemy wants to surround us." Felice's expression was also dignified. "In the past, Federation wanted to completely defeat Devil by a Exceptional unit. Now it is a bit naive to see this idea It's over. "
"Yeah, even without False Face and its Symbiote Body army, this amount is not something that Federation can eat ..." ice witch closed his eyes, "We are too underestimated War of Divine Will."
"But at least you have hope." Roland patted her shoulders comfortably. Regardless of the outcome of the witch empire, after human beings experienced two complete fiasco defeats, they still kept the tinder of resistance instead of giving up completely, which is not easy.
"Your Majesty!" At this time Ferlin came with a piece of latest information, "Devil's floating city route changed, it seems to have turned to our side!"
"Who is the reporter?"
"Ms. Lightning of Exploration Club. She also said that the other side also expanded the patrol range of Dread Beast at the same time, she and Macy can no longer stay in nearby surveillance. Finally Miss Lightning mentioned that there was an extremely amazing magic power response below Kingdom Capital Overflow, even if she is not good at perceiving magic power, she notices that scorching breath. "
Roland could not help but look at Agatha.
"What do you think it is?"
"I don't know ..." The latter shook his head. "But since magic power condenses to this extent, it will never be anything simple."
"Just like I thought." Roland agreed.
It's amazing, isn't it?
Symbiote Body, high rank evolved and mass-produced, God of Divine Construct ... Devil, the new things that have emerged in the past century are really endless. Even though War of Divine Will were still using ordinary bone spears at the beginning, at this time they have been replaced with explosive improvements, although not every wild demon can be owned. Even if it is not a human gunpowder, it must be inspired accordingly.
People often say that war is the best catalyst for civilization. It seems to make some sense. Roland looks at the yellow sky above the projection, gods ... Is this what you want to see?
There is no doubt that if they continue to attack, they have no chance of winning. The floating island at this time was like a boat sailing against the water, and the turbulent black current was thousands of Devil. If the number of enemies doubles again, there will inevitably be a lot of casualties on the island.
And judging from the strong magic power emerging from Devil Kingdom Capital and the initiative to approach them, they should also have more than one hole card.
But ... he didn't think about fighting with each other face to face.
The location of the floating island on the map is a bit far from the end of the marked red line, but since Devil is willing to actively shorten this distance, he can also save a little effort.
"Notify everyone, meet in the meeting room." Roland instructed Ferlin, "It's time."
Everyone in the command post put down the work at hand, simultaneously looked to this side.
The room suddenly became extremely quiet.
"As you bid, Your Majesty." Knight raised his chest and raised his hand to salute.
...
A few minutes later, the high-levels gathered in the top level of the bridge.
Zanyang is falling into the earth a little bit, the skyline is showing a blood red, and the many Devil corpses lying on the landing field add a killing color to this afterglow.
"Tonight, the enemy will enter our final strike range."
Roland looked at the participants. They were divided into two rows around the long table. On one side were witches Anna, Wendy, Agatha, Felice ... On the one hand, military commanders Iron Axe, Edith, Brian, Ferlin ... in each pair of eyes. Full of silent trust. Even though the enemy was overcast like a cloud, no one showed retreat and uneasiness.
"I don't think I need to repeat this plan. From the moment it was born, everyone has been involved and witnessed the whole process from scratch." Roland said slowly, "Although the person who proposed the plan It's me, but it won't be a reality without everyone's joint efforts. "
Sample project trial production, parameter calculation, configuration selection, and airdrop test. Even with the assistance of Greycastle Design Bureau, he completed the full set of inspections from experimental products to the weapon step by step in accordance with the process, so as not to appear in actual combat. Any accident.
"In order to minimize the chance of discovery and avoid unnecessary losses on the road, the fleet will be set off around 5am. Night flights are full of risks, but I believe Tilly can lead Aerial Knight to do this. If everything Smooth, tomorrow morning, there will be a new 'sun' on the horizon. "
Seeing that no one in the meeting room had any objections, Roland stood up and said, "So, I announced the official launch of the Splendor of the Sun plan!" He paused, "Remember, the darkest moment is just before dawn."
