Barrier of Light

Long night.

The surface of the ice sea shattered, and a huge airship crashed into the sea like a giant whale probing its head.

Standing on Yuanting Island, you can see the light of the sky.

The Storm made waves in a radius of hundreds of miles.

Even the believers who were far away in the Holy City felt something strange... A blazing pillar of light reaching the sky was ignited in the direction of the ice sea. You only need to climb to a high altitude to see the extremely majestic and grand scene.

The starship is starting up.

The deafening sound of explosions resounded throughout the entire sea area.

Under the huge waves set off by the Storm, Yuanting Island was like a small and lonely boat.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Those "lucky ones" who were able to set foot on the starship were placed in the life capsule to rest. The closed AI developed by the church was transmitting to them the images from outside the country at this moment through the spiritual network.

Transcendents of the third level and above, as well as the internal operation employees of the starship, are "lucky" to be able to come to the porthole at this moment and witness the starship igniting and taking off with their own eyes.

Vast expanse of sea water was ignited by azure flames.

Starships are like shooting stars.

They were sitting inside the meteor, watching "themselves" bloom with dazzling light.

"Just left."

Saint Haitong held a wine glass and stood quietly in front of the porthole with a somewhat complicated expression.

As a saint in the holy city.

They all have independent and autonomous living spaces, very close to the Storm God Seat, and are "neighbors" to each other.

"Yeah...just left."

The youngest Saint of Gadi in the Holy City was also standing in front of the same huge porthole at this moment.

Saint Jiadi's eyes could not conceal his loneliness and confusion.

He gently repeated what Saint Hai Tong said, and then said: "It's really like a dream."

That's their hometown.

Now, add a "Zeng".

Only the Saints of Chunli know about the "escape plan" of the Storm. Even they, the absolute top figures of the Church of Storms, were only notified recently... In this matter, they and those who moved into the life capsule of the Storm There is no particularly big difference among ordinary believers.

The reason why Lord Goddess did this.

In fact, they can understand it.

[Deep Sea] has penetrated the entire five continents... If you want to ensure that this plan is not leaked, the only way is not to spread it.

But the feeling of being "used as a chess piece" is still not pleasant.

What makes them even more uncomfortable is the "new colleagues" who have squeezed into this starship.

"You two, now is not the time to be sentimental."

A cold and indifferent voice sounded.

The red dragon left the Temple of the Storm God and happened to see the two saints. He said calmly: "After the starship is ignited and set sail, there are many trivial matters that need to be dealt with."

The AI ​​developed by the Holy City cannot compare with [Deep Sea] in terms of intelligence and independence.

therefore.

Although successfully ignited.

However, many defenses inside the starship require "manual" inspection.

Of course these things can be done by low-level transcendent beings...but when it comes to high-risk "attack authority", it must be handled by the saint himself.

"I will naturally know what to do, so I don't need you to remind me."

Saint Haitong caught a glimpse of the red dragon coming out and snorted coldly, his attitude was not friendly.

Although the Holy City has been experiencing internal strife over the years.

But the attitude towards "outsiders" remains the same.

A traitor like Red Dragon, who betrayed the Tower of Source once, may betray the church again... They know that the God's Throne will not easily use such a person, and now they have given him a heavy responsibility, most likely because they have signed a soul contract, but after all, both parties have once They are enemies that oppose each other. Now that they meet inside the starship, there is naturally a hidden anger.

However, if there is anger, there will be anger, and a fight will never be possible.

Haitong has a 13 count on her own strength.

Not to mention that the red dragon is now in charge of the "origin", even if he puts aside [Tide] for a duel... he can't defeat this monster.

"..."

The red dragon glanced at Haitong expressionlessly.

He just spoke lightly to remind him of his previous sentence, and then said nothing more.

He knew how the church would view him after signing a soul contract with the Storm God Throne.

It's nothing more than disgust, belittlement, contempt...

He doesn't care about any of this.

Can avoid Gu Wen being plotted by the storm and stay alive.

He is already satisfied.

…

…

"Starship...activated."

During the initial call, Gu Shen raised his head.

Zhou, who was currently standing in the Storm, was standing in front of the porthole, looking up at the night scene above the ice sea. Through this hypnotic seed, he saw everything that happened in the ice sea.

Gu Shen no longer looked at the scene of the Storm through "Zhou"'s hypnotic seeds.

There was regret in his eyes.

The plan to save the red dragon was finally shattered.

In fact... with the God of Storms sitting in charge, Gu Wenhui has no other alternative but to pay for transactions. According to the Holy City's attitude towards the Tower of Source, once it enters the Ice Sea Realm, it will definitely be "slaughtered".

"Slaughter" in every sense of the word.

Lie Renault was killed, and [Deep Sea] was bound to be furious. This was the most important top combat force in Central Continent, and it was just silenced to death by the Church of Storms!

It's just...no matter how angry you are, it's useless.

The Church of Storms escaped by boat.

It doesn’t even stay in Wuzhou anymore, so what can you do?

As one of the seven gods, the God of Storms began to be wary of [Deep Sea] thirty years ago. Turing who sent the starship would not leak the escape plan... Although [Deep Sea] has powerful computing power, in the absence of information, Even if you don't, you will still make mistakes. For the Three Continents Alliance, this is actually exciting news.

The death of Lie Renault and the collapse of [Deep Sea] proved one point——

The opponents they faced were not invincible!

"The Storm God's Throne has been confirmed to leave Nanzhou."

Gu Shen passed the news to Dadu through the spiritual link of the initial number.

The departure of the Storm God Throne is an important "node"!

Previously.

The Three Continents Alliance has decided to use Sky Sheath weapons to launch a surprise attack on Central Continent.

The Tower of Source uses the "Awakening Act" to bring Central Continent into the extraordinary era... and the Sky Sheath weapon is the nightmare of the extraordinary. As long as the Sky Sheath fragments spread in Central Continent, the Tower of Source will directly lose its combat effectiveness. The Church of Storms uses the "information gap" "Let [Deep Sea] lose a strong man of origin.

The Three Continents Alliance can also take advantage of the "information gap" to end this war early!

No matter how powerful a chess player is, how can he play the game without any chess pieces in his hand?

"receive."

Lu Nanzhi immediately responded.

The spiritual link with the initial number was hung up, and the lady sighed softly.

This sigh.

The sigh is that Dongzhou was fully prepared and tried his best to take back the red dragon, but still failed.

Then she took a deep breath and held it.

This holds your breath.

Just sharpen your edge and face the next decisive battle wholeheartedly!

…

…

The moment the Storm Throne began to flee.

The attack plan of the Sky Sheath Weapon has officially begun——

The garrison of the fortresses in Beizhou began to take action. The three frontiers now lost their supreme leaders. The Queen went to fight with the gods. The entire Beizhou was in a turbulent era of "leaderless leaders".

Lin Ci took over the task at the critical moment and became the supreme leader of Central City.

The commander of the Survey Corps, Zi Yu, resigned from the position of "Attic Garrison". She left Central City for the first time in these years and went to the border of Beizhou. Among the candidates for the new general of Beizhou, she was the most popular. In fact, based on her strength and qualifications, Zi Yu A "promotion" was long overdue, but she was willing to serve the Queen.

This was the moment of life and death, and there was no room for her to step back.

Beizhou not only needs generals, but also strong enough men to lead and command the next battle.

Lin Lin also left Gubao.

He was willing to leave this time... Because Central City lacked manpower and only Zhuxue was the only one, it would be difficult to suppress the situation. As the only crown prince of Beizhou, he had to reveal his identity and come to the imperial city to take charge. Brothers share the burden.

The busiest one is the Nagano Gu family.

In order to avoid information exploration in [Deep Sea], the Gu family has been responsible for the production, transportation, and storage of Sky Sheath weapons in recent years.

Gu Nanfeng gave the order, and the night watchmen came out in full force.

One hundred and four Skysheath weapons were distributed across the tundra and began to "thaw" weeks in advance, just waiting for the Skysheath raid plan to be completed and implemented.

In order to ensure that this war goes smoothly, it will not be affected by external disturbances.

The highest level of the Three Continents Alliance negotiated and reached the same opinion, waiting for the Storm God Seat to escape before carrying out a "strike".

now.

This moment... has come.

"There are a total of 103 sites where the Sky Sheath weapons will be struck this time, divided into four rounds, and all of them will be dropped within three hours. According to calculations, after the strike, the upper city will be completely paralyzed, and the port city of Zhongzhou will be completely destroyed. , completely losing the ability to 'trade' and 'going to sea'...the increase brought by the Awakening Act will be completely wiped out."

The night was long, and only an hour had passed since the Storm broke through the sea and left.

Gu Nanfeng stood in the strong wind of the tundra.

He looked at the fleeting energy boat passing by at the zenith and said solemnly: "The verification and preparation of the Sky Sheath weapon will take another five hours... probably until dawn."

"Wait until dawn..."

Beside him, a slightly worried female voice sounded.

Meng Xizhou was wearing a snow-white cloak and frowned: "I don't know why, but I always feel uneasy."

"The Skysheath weapon is not a toy. The five hours of preparation time is already the limit of today's technology and cannot be shortened any longer."

Gu Nanfeng understood Meng Xizhou's concerns.

If possible, he also hopes that the moment he gets the message, he can complete the deployment and then launch.

But this is impossible.

"I want to re-examine the Sky Sheath plan."

Meng Xizhou rubbed his eyebrows.

For this Sky Sheath attack, she went to the Red Lake a few days ago... But the "prophecy" given by the Forbidden Library on this matter was only pitch black without any information.

As a quasi-god, Meng Xizhou believed in his "spiritual omens".

Any ominous reminder is worth paying attention to.

The two returned to the base and confirmed the details of the strike plan one by one. One hundred and four Skysheath weapons were launched through the guidance system of the closed network. Every strike location and deployment plan were recalculated.

"The Sky Sheath strike plan... there is no problem."

After confirming, Gu Nanfeng looked at Meng Xizhou.

This plan and deployment have been verified countless times.

Now, this is the last long night, the last check.

The "uneasy premonition" in Meng Xizhou's heart still did not disappear... She stared at the paper deployment plan in front of her, and was very puzzled. If there were flaws in the Sky Sheath strike plan, how could her "spiritual premonition" happen tonight? Was it triggered?

Did her uneasiness come from the Sky Sheath?

Or does it come from... other unknown sources?

"Nanfeng, if possible, I would like to... go to the Tundra Prison to have a look. See the legendary 'Sky Sheath' with my own eyes."

Meng Xizhou thought about it but couldn't find the answer.

In the end, she could only choose to practice her intuition.

If you go to see the legendary "Heaven Sheath" with your own eyes, you still can't find any flaw in the planned deployment... Then it should not be far from dawn. Not to mention that she is only a quasi-god throne now. Even if she really becomes a god, in this kind of situation In the face of major decisions, we can only "do our best and obey fate."

…

…

Where the sky sheath stands, the wind is lingering.

Six years have passed since the Tundra Prison was rebuilt. During these six years, the prison has been unprecedentedly "stable".

The joint law enforcement of Beizhou and Dongzhou six years ago directly eliminated all the escaped felons in the Tundra Prison... All the extraordinary beings who were imprisoned in the [Snow Cage] no longer resisted and "served" obediently.

After the Three Continents Alliance declared war on the Tower of Source, the "mental computing power" produced by these extraordinary prisoners was no longer sent to the deep water area, but was stored by Dongzhou to develop its own "closed spirit" network".

In the wind and snow, a vague figure appeared and bowed.

"Master of the family!"

The people responsible for guarding the [Snow Cage] are still the two Gui Xue from back then, and the person who came is none other than Mr. Xue, the person who sacrificed his life for the Gu family!

Six years have passed, and his title to Gu Nanfeng has changed from young master to official "head of the family."

Now Gu Nanfeng is the head of the Gu family and is the leader among the five great families in Nagano.

"No need to greet you, I just came to take a look at the [Snow Cage] and then leave."

Gu Nanfeng nodded in return and looked up at the tower in the distance, indicating that Mr. Ghost did not need to show up again.

"Who is this……"

Mr. Xue did not disperse directly, but looked at Gu Nanfeng's side.

The head of the house was accompanied by a woman.

Really rare.

Over the years, Gu Nanfeng has been traveling around for the Gu family. Although he is at his peak, he is always "travelled". Many people are worried about the marriage of the head of the Gu family, but he has never expressed any concern for anyone. The woman is attracted to her, and now the woman next to the head of the house is not only wearing the same style of cloak, but the distance between the two of them is still very close, and they look quite intimate.

Just as Meng Xizhou was about to speak, Gu Nanfeng said softly.

"This is...a very good friend of mine."

Meng Xizhou was stunned for a second.

She knew the reason for Gu Nanfeng's answer.

Regarding the feelings between the two, there is no need for more words, both of them know it well.

After tearing apart the disguise of [Deep Sea], there was no resistance to the marriage between Gu and Meng.

Now she is the co-leader of Xizhou, and Gu Nanfeng is also the leader of Nagano.

Regardless of identity, status or background, they are a perfect match...

But the flames of war have been ignited. When life and death are at stake, how can you care about the love between your children?

"..."

Meng Xizhou immediately lowered his eyebrows and smiled without saying much.

Mr. Xue glanced at the young master meaningfully, bowed and stepped aside: "You two, please."

The sky-sheath towers into the sky, like a sword.

Meng Xizhou stood under the sheath.

She looked at the sword in the stone that pierced the clouds, and recalled the popular prophecy that spread to Guangming City.

The tundra's sky scabbard is really a sword scabbard.

Under the sky-reaching scabbard, there is a "magic sword" that is so sharp that it can cut through the entire land.

Due to the mysterious background of the Sky Sheath and its long history, this popular prophecy has been circulating in the streets and alleys. Even if ordinary people do not know the existence of "supernormal power", they still compile similar stories. Those who hear it will smile knowingly. No one has ever Believe it or not.

"The sheath of heaven, the sheath of heaven."

Gu Nanfeng stood beside Meng Xizhou and said calmly: "This is the greatest confidence for the establishment of [Snow Cage]."

"You once said that Mr. Gu Changzhi stood here all night and did not pull it out."

Meng Xizhou suddenly moved his head and asked.

"yes……"

Gu Nanfeng was stunned for a moment, and then said with gentle eyes, "Maybe this is really a sword."

He didn't finish his sentence.

Meng Xizhou had already stretched out his palm and placed it on the wall of the sky sheath.

This scene made Gu Nanfeng's pupils shrink, and also made Gui Xue and Gui Xue on the tower feel wary.

"No!"

Gui Xue's reminder came a little late.

Meng Xizhou's palm had already touched the "Heaven Sheath"...but she was not corroded by the power of the Sky Sheath because there was a thin layer of light in her palm.

It seems to be only a millimeter, but in fact it is tens of millions of feet!

In an instant, the entire sky sheath was illuminated by blazing light, and the power of the source of light burst out from Meng Xizhou. She stretched out her hand to hold down the stone sword without expression, releasing all her own light. When it came out, the torrent of light rushed up against the sheath, and a huge giant of holy light condensed out of thin air between heaven and earth.

This scene completely shocked Gui Xue and others.

With such pure and terrifying light pressure, how could they not guess the identity of this woman!

The current master of the temple, the new throne of light! Meng Xizhou!

Meng Xizhou... wants to draw his sword!

The last time the guy tried this, he was a "traveler" who came all the way from the [Old World]. Unfortunately, the big guy failed to draw his sword... and failed completely.

If it were the throne of God who came to draw the sword.

Maybe it’s possible!

Layers of flowing light waterfalls rolled up, illuminating the entire [Snow Cage] prison, and the night turned into day in an instant. However, this terrifying power of light only lasted for ten seconds before slowly dissipating.

Meng Xizhou's fluttering cloak slowly settled down, and his shiny hair returned to black.

She exhaled a long breath and retracted her palm.

The thin layer of light turned into burnt black debris, flying in the wind...

Draw your sword.

Failed.

"It is indeed magnificent, sacred and unshakable."

Meng Xizhou did not look disappointed. She looked up at the sword holding up the sky and sighed softly: "When I was in Xizhou, I always wanted to come and see it. Now... I finally see it."

If we say, extraordinary power is a gift from God.

Then the sheath is a punishment sent down from heaven.

For six hundred years, the sword in the stone fell from the sky and stood like a tower. Even a small fragment falling from the sheath would be enough to make the extraordinary person lose its power if it penetrated into the body of the extraordinary and merged with his blood. , reduced to commonplace.

"It's such a shame that I can't pull it out."

She smiled.

Gu Nanfeng calmed down and said comfortingly: "Perhaps... when you truly become the divine throne, you will have the opportunity to pull it out?"

"No chance."

Meng Xizhou shook his head and said calmly: "I can feel that the sky sheath is not something I can pull out... It is still useless to become a god."

With the protection of the source of light, she doesn't have to worry about being hurt by the sky sheath.

This means that she is already qualified to "draw the sword".

But failed to draw the sword.

She already had the "concept" that this sword was not hers to pull out... Maybe this was the reason why Mr. Gu Changzhi stayed silent all night?

Gu Nanfeng asked again: "Has the uneasiness in your heart dissipated a little after seeing the sky sheath?"

"..."

Meng Xizhou was silent for a moment and shook his head.

She said in a hoarse voice: "Not only did it not dissipate, it actually became more intense."

Gu Nanfeng's slightly hopeful eyes immediately dimmed.

The trip to the Sky Sheath can be regarded as the last hope tonight. If he can't find a clue here, then he doesn't understand what the problem is.

"My uneasiness may not come from the Sky Sheath."

Meng Xizhou silently clenched his fists.

She whispered: "Maybe it's because tonight... something is going to happen."

And this matter is related to the "Sky Sheath Strike Plan".
