Barrier of Light

"boom!"

An extremely dull crackling sound echoed in the bronze hall.

Gu Shen stood in front of the throne in the main hall, and was about to touch the outermost edge of the golden dream. The state he had finally prepared was interrupted at this moment.

Even Gu Xiaoman, who was deep in thought during the exam, was disturbed by the loud noise.

"what happened?"

Xiaoman raised his head, very confused, with a lot of confusion in his eyes.

But Gu Shen reacted very quickly.

"The initial number's 'defense restriction' was triggered?!"

He looked back at Alfred.

"Yes……"

Av's response speed slowed down a bit. It allocated part of its computing power to investigate what was happening outside, but it returned to normal after two seconds.

"Someone directly launched an attack on the Initial using the 'power of authority'."

Afu's tone was cold.

The bronze hall projects a series of virtual images, which are the peripheral scenes captured by the initial number.

In this projection screen, you can see everything happening outside with great clarity.

The causes and consequences of this incident.

Gu Shen could see it clearly!

"Church of Storms...this bunch of bastards..."

His expression suddenly became gloomy.

Unexpectedly, killing the giant deer saint was not enough. The support troops sent by the Church of Storms chose to self-destruct without waiting for the advance team to return!

This is to bring everyone to death together!

Gu Shen actually had a premonition of the possible "danger" of the arrival of the Five Continents Fleet. He even persuaded Afu to choose to sink. However, he never expected that the Church of Storms would directly make the stupid decision to attack the ruins with a one-time power of authority. Behavior!

These believers came with the belief that they would die from the very beginning!

"My master once said that the hymn of mankind is a hymn of courage, but now looking at it...human beings have evolved into a species that I cannot understand."

Afu said without emotion: "In such a huge crisis, you still make such a choice. I don't know whether to admire or feel sad for these people's behavior of self-destruction."

This sentence sounded very ironic to Gu Shen's ears.

Gu Xiaoman stood up. She realized the seriousness of the problem at this moment: "Afu, can you cancel the counterattack command of the initial number?"

"Sorry, Miss Xiaoman."

Afu said softly: "I am just the steward of the Initial, not a god... The master handed this ship to me, but he has already arranged the most urgent measures to defend against enemies. After all, you can't ask me to own it." The leader of the Power of Authority is going to fight head-on... After encountering the bombardment of Authority, the initial number will attack on its own, and I have no way to cancel this order."

"Cannot be undone?"

Xiaoman was anxious. The self-destruction of the Church of Storms was nothing. She didn't care how many lunatics died in the Holy City.

She doesn't care about the fleet alliance between the Tower of Source and the City of Light.

What she cares about is the energy boat fleets in Nagano and Central City——

The phrase "I am in the middle of the continent and my heart is in the east" is very appropriate to describe Gu Xiaoman.

During the long exam just now, she had already figured out some things.

After everything settles down, she will still return to the Tower of Source... But the motivation that supports her becoming the "Lord of Wine" is not because of her greed for the monstrous power built on countless bones.

But one day in the future, he can achieve the throne of God.

She wants to clean up the world, cut ties with Qinglong, and leave Zhongzhou.

Her homeland was never there.

"As the steward of the initial account, can't you cancel the attack?" Gu Shen narrowed his eyes.

"Sorry... My underlying logic is that any existence that poses a threat to the Initial Number must be eliminated as much as possible. This is my bottom line."

Afu said politely to Gu Shen: "Including you, you were also the one I considered annihilating."

It was only later that Afu realized that trying to eliminate Gu Shen would only cause greater trouble, so it gave up the idea.

"Once the ban is touched, the attack order cannot be revoked."

Afu said seriously: "I'm sorry...but I told the truth. I didn't lie to you about this."

"I trust you."

Gu Shen was not panicked. He listened carefully to Afu's answer and found that there was no problem with the underlying logic of guarding the initial number.

There is no fault in the design of the God of Craftsman.

However, there is a small loophole.

Gu Shen said slowly: "I have a question. You can't cancel the attack order...but you can still do other things, right?"

Afu was stunned for a second.

Although it was a little confused at the moment, it still answered honestly: "Theoretically, that's the case."

Gu Shen continued: "In other words... I can change the attack order, right?"

"???"

Afu had already guessed what Gu Shen was going to do.

It responded uneasily: "Change the attack order, I can do it, but it belongs to my authority... What do you want to do?"

"What's yours and mine is too foreign."

Gu Shen smiled and said, "Don't forget that you agreed to our second request before..."

…

…

The ice sea at this moment is being swept by a strong aura of despair.

The seventy energy boats barely managed to remain unharmed during the first salvo, but that salvo of black and silver cannonballs had completely shattered the protective shields of most of the airships.

What followed was a second salvo.

The fleet formations of the two major alliances have been disrupted. In the extreme chaos, several figures broke away from the ship.

Osmond and Gu Nanfeng left the energy boat one after another and stood on their respective main boats.

The leaders sent by the City of Light and the Tower of Source also made the same choice.

If you can't avoid it, you can only attack it hard.

When the second salvo arrives, they cannot protect all the airships, but they can at least protect one or two airships. But who knows how many rounds of salvo there will be. In the end, even if they are as powerful as them, they may not be able to survive.

Osmond stared at the leader of the trip in the City of Light in the distance, couldn't help but sneered and shouted.

"Yin Zhuo! Are you still alive?!"

The fleet leader sent by Guangming City this time is the fourth-ranked elder in the temple. He is powerful and has high prestige.

Before Lin Meng's engagement was terminated.

Osmond still has a personal relationship with the fourth elder of the temple. The two have been discussing and competing with each other. They are both enemies and friends.

But as the engagement broke down, Central City's senior officials discovered that the Church of Light had already penetrated faith in the interior of Beizhou and donated chess pieces. Immediately afterwards, all the major legions launched a vigorous sweep mission, and Osmond personally uncovered several spies from the temple... From then on, he and Yin Zhuo never contacted each other again.

He understood that the two were just enemies, not friends.

After nearly ten years apart, the two "old friends" reunited, but there was no courtesy or politeness at all.

If not for being in the chaotic restriction of the ice sea.

It is not impossible for the two of them to be at war with each other and fire directly at each other.

"Old guy, you're not dead, how could I die?" Yin Zhuo responded angrily.

"Both those who believe in light and those who believe in storm are good people!"

Osmond's roaring voice vibrated through the chaotic zenith.

He was angry at the self-destruction of the Church of Storms, but he also knew that it was not just the Storm cultists who could do this kind of thing. If the God of Light conveyed a similar will, then Xizhou's subordinates could also do this kind of thing!

"Fuck you! How dare you blaspheme!"

Yin Zhuo suddenly became angry.

If the airflow at this moment was not too chaotic and Guangming City's main boat could not maintain sufficient stability, then he would have ordered to fire at Osmond at this moment.

"hehe."

Osmond just smiled at this response.

He gripped the long knife tightly and prepared to unsheath it.

The angry shout just now was just to vent his anger. After the curse, he regained his composure.

He knew very well that it would be very difficult for the Five Continents Fleet to leave. Everyone had fallen into the trap of the Church of Storms...

The counterattack of [Ice Sea Ruins] has begun.

They may all have to answer here today.

"Boom boom boom——"

At this moment, the second round of salvo started!

The two major alliances immediately separated from the entangled state and adjusted their respective camps. For this ice sea mission, the soldiers sent south were all well-trained warriors. The commanders of each source energy boat had rich battlefield capabilities to deal with emergencies. Experience, if the protective shield is broken, you can only dodge. In this case, you need to evacuate the space as much as possible.

In order to protect themselves, but also to guard against the opponent's "destruction".

The two major alliances unanimously chose to stay away from each other——

Osmond took a deep breath, and he drew his sword out of its sheath, preparing to withstand the black and silver cannon fire that might hit the main boat... But a scene that shocked him appeared.

It was different from the random shooting in the first round.

This second round of black and silver artillery bombardment was obviously organized and premeditated, and several of the artillery shells were even "locked" on the target. He saw with his own eyes two energy boats moving around in the air, but in the end they were hit hard. , exploded into fireworks over the ice sea!

But the real shock is...

In the second salvo, of nearly a hundred black and silver artillery shells, not a single one was fired at the Dongzhou-Beizhou United Fleet.

In this chaotic sea, half of the sky is dead and deserted.

As for the other half of the sky, it was filled with artillery fire.

"This is?!"

Osmond was stunned.

Gu Nanfeng, who was standing on the main boat in Nagano, was also dumbfounded.

The two commanders looked at each other, completely confused about the counterattack logic of the [Ice Sea Ruins], but they could not miss the opportunity before it came back, so they responded immediately.

Thirty energy boats are desperately fighting against the attraction of the ice sea storm at this moment, retreating towards the periphery!

Originally they had no chance to leave...

But now, there is a chance!

Look at the other side.

Regardless of the City of Light or the Tower of Source, half of their cloud ships exploded in this salvo. The commanders who were prepared to dodge saw the black and silver cannonballs filling the sky. Completely sluggish, there is no way to dodge the blows of this density. This is completely the arrival of death to harvest their lives!

Yin Zhuo stood on the main boat of Guangming City. He had just leaped out and used the sword of holy light to cut open a black silver cannonball in an extremely thrilling way. During the fierce battle, he caught a glimpse of the other half of the sky from the corner of his eye.

Compared with the fierce battlefield here.

Dongzhou Beizhou's fleet did not encounter any resistance at all... Now these guys are actually preparing to evacuate!

"Why, why are they okay?"

The fourth elder of the temple was greatly shocked.

His side was engaged in a bitter battle and suffered a large number of casualties.

The fleets of Dongzhou and Beizhou not only picked up the advance team safely, but they were also safe and sound, without even suffering any losses!
