Chapter 166: Going deep into the enemy's back(1/2)
The joy and excitement of successfully defending the third wave is slowly fading, and the people and players of Qiandao have returned to a state of intense preparation to brace themselves for the fourth wave.
This phenomenon is the same as in the previous waves. After all, everyone knows that it is far from the time to celebrate after the disaster, and there will be two more severe and cruel waves of offensive waiting for them.
However...
As time goes by, the first day after the third wave, the third day...the fifth day.
The troops who came from the rear to supply supplies had already quickly regrouped and returned to the front line the next day.
Various defensive facilities that were consumed in the third wave of defensive battles were corrected and redeployed on the third day.
Even on the fourth day, a group of temporary recruits that Sanfengxing had urgently recruited and trained from the private sector were sent over via transport ship.
Let’s not talk about the combat effectiveness, but at least it has expanded the size of the army, and the number of battles can inspire military morale.
And on the fifth day, Liz proposed to take the lead on Sakuragi Island to prepare funds and entrusted it to the Zhao Chamber of Commerce for execution. Captain Nan of the Northern Cross served as a guest and provided technical guidance. Finally, under the influence of a large number of excited strangers, day and night,
With a strong labor force, Sakuragijima finally had its own simple shipyard.
Unlike Sanfengxing, the shipyard on Sakuragi Island is specially prepared for foreigners, which is why the players are so motivated.
Maritime battleships tailor-made for foreigners are brand new from Sakuragi Island. Compared with ordinary battleships, they have simpler operations and more agile movement speeds.
At this point, players finally no longer need to keep chasing Sanfengxing's ships, but can also purchase their own maritime battleships from Sakuragi Island.
However, due to technical problems, the maximum specifications that can be provided to players now are only small and medium-sized, but this is enough to make major guilds flock to it.
Just imagine, being able to drive a battleship of your own guild on the sea and sailing on fierce battlefields, that would be so cool! This is the best way to build your guild's reputation.
Originally, Sakuragi Island was considered by the players to be the base camp of their "strangers" on the Thousand Islands. However, after Liz's "ship purchase permission order" was issued, it can be said that it has directly risen to the level of "Holy Land"
.
Not to mention the local players in Thousand Islands, even the players from the Yanyu next door wanted to make a "pilgrimage" and shouted wildly on the forum, asking the officials not to be ignorant and quickly open the next batch of tickets to Thousand Islands.
Support the fleet so that they can also go to Sakuragi Island to purchase a maritime warship of their own.
Looking at the greedy looks of the Yanyu players next door, the Qiandao players who were the first batch of battleships were definitely extremely proud of themselves. They were all gearing up and couldn't wait to try their hand at Fallen Abyss.
But...but...
Yes.
That's where the problem lies... No, it can't be said to be a problem.
All in all, it’s already been the fifth day, but the fourth wave of falling into the abyss has not yet appeared!
After adequate rest and repair, the entire front line defense force was fully armed and highly motivated. What they faced was...
A calm sea.
Waiting for the fifth day, the sixth day passed.
A full week has passed since the third wave of the Fall came.
But Qiandao Fang is still around the defense line, and there is not even a shadow of the monster that fell into the abyss!
this...
Not only was San Fengxing confused, but the players who were gearing up were stunned, and even the little wolf cub was stunned by this unprecedented phenomenon.
What does it mean?
Ended early?
However, the fact is that as early as the next day, Vivian has issued many reconnaissance missions to the players. The news from the players is that all the Fallen Abyss army is still there, and there are still a lot of people in the lair.
A sea of countless monsters.
But the weird thing is...
They just stayed in their lair and seemed to be in a confrontation with Qiandao?
"Vivian, what do you think?" In the military camp on the front line, Liu Dao Luo Sui looked at the little girl with questioning eyes.
In the past few days, the high-ranking generals of Dazu have been engaged in various discussions and analyzes because of this.
By analyzing the video records sent by the strangers, they also came to the same conclusion as Liz and Shirley at that time, that is, this abyssal octopus is likely to be an intelligent creature.
Today's abnormal phenomena may seem very strange, but on the other hand, they seem to be able to prove their above speculation.
So for now, there is one conclusion that everyone agrees with.
The only person who can control those violent, cruel and aggressive Abyss creatures is their leader, that is to say, the Abyss octopus who forcibly suppressed the original Abyss offensive and deliberately stood still, leading to the current situation.
.
The next question that arises is...
Why does it do this?
What exactly is it planning and plotting?
"Luo Sui, I have a suggestion. I want to... go there in person!" Vivian took a deep breath and finally expressed her decision in public.
"Go there in person? Wait a minute, you mean you want to go deep into the waters of the Fallen Abyss territory alone?"
Vivian nodded.
"No! Absolutely not! This is too risky!" Unsurprisingly, Luo Sui of Six Paths subconsciously spoke out in opposition.
Although most of the generals in the military camp did not dare to speak directly, it could be seen from their expressions that they were the same as Liu Dao Luo Sui.
The reason is also very simple, Vivian's importance is too high.
Whether it is the reputation of the fox-faced witch among the strangers, or the sheer personal strength of the little girl, and after the third wave, now she has to add that extremely destructive secret weapon.
It is no exaggeration to say that in today's Thousand Islands, no one can do without the fox-faced shrine maiden.
So of course they strongly opposed Vivian's risky and radical choice. If something happened to the little girl, it would be bad news for the entire Thousand Islands.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Vivian, have you ever thought that this might be the purpose of the leader of the Fallen Abyss? Just to lure the snake out of its hole?"
Liu Dao Luo Sui knew the little girl's stubbornness, so he was a little anxious to dissuade her.
"And if you are doing this for investigation, wouldn't it be better if you continue to let people from foreign lands go?"
Vivian still shook her head.
In the beginning, the reason why the Strangers were able to penetrate deeply and bring video records was because the Abyssal Army had not yet spread out at that time. Today's Strangers, let alone the fourth sea area, cannot even break through the first sea area.
They are all densely packed with Abyss-falling armies. From the intelligence obtained these days, it can be seen that they cannot bring back any useful information at all.
"Don't worry, Luo Sui. I know it in my heart. I will retreat immediately if I encounter danger. If things don't work out and Xiao Hei is with me, even if Duoyuan really wants to stop us, it won't be that easy. Besides..."
"This time, in addition to Xiao Hei and I, there will be another friend from the Flame Territory traveling with me. Her strength is not inferior to mine, and she is also an expert in the study of the Fallen Abyss! She...how should I say, anyway?
Luo Su, you can understand that she has a way to make us invisible behind enemy lines in Fallen Abyss and sneak in easily without being noticed!"
The expert in Vivian's mouth naturally refers to Shirley. Just in case, the little wolf cub asked her to come to the front line with the little girl. Now it seems that this decision is very wise.
On the other side, seeing that Vivian was determined, Liu Dao Luo Sui hesitated to speak. In the end, he could only give numerous instructions and mobilize elite troops on the periphery, ready to respond to the little girl at any time.
After all, to be honest, the Fall into the Abyss can be delayed indefinitely, but Thousand Islands cannot. Now the entire population is crowded on four or five shelter islands. In the short term, it can be supported by spare supplies, but once it goes forward, the original use of
How could a population that could be supported by thirty or forty islands be supported by just four islands?
But if the residents are allowed to go back, it will be equivalent to the collapse of the entire defense line. If the Fallen Abyss suddenly attacks again at this time, the previous waves of perfect defense will be in vain.
Therefore, no matter what, this disaster must be compressed and ended within no more than a month. Otherwise, even if Thousand Islands survives, their vitality will be severely damaged and chaos will begin.
Liu Dao Luo Sui knew this, and so did Vivian. I am afraid this is the reason why the little girl chose such a risky approach.
Two hours later.
A small warship quietly sailed out from Sanfengxing's defense line, crossed the critical sea area, and finally arrived at the dark sea area shrouded in dark clouds, the territory of Fallen Abyss.
"Shirley, the rest is up to you."
After Vivian on the boat whispered her thanks, another white-haired woman traveling with her nodded and walked out of the cabin.
It can be seen that waves and ripples have appeared on the sea surface not far away. It is obvious that an underwater abyss creature has discovered them and is swimming towards them at a very fast speed.
If it were the players and the ordinary Thousand Island Army, they would either flee or fight at this time, but Shirley's presence gave Vivian a third option.
Shirley came to the highest bow of the ship, closed her eyes, and after taking a deep breath, a familiar evil and dark aura emanated from the body of the white-haired woman.
The void behind the woman began to twist and fluctuate irregularly and violently. Soon, a black crystallized phantom wing of the Fallen Abyss gradually condensed.
At the same time, Shirley's pupils suddenly vibrated and turned into an abyss of ink black. In the darkness, the scarlet color that best symbolizes the abyss grew. The only difference may be that it was a little less brutal.
Buzz!
Shirley stepped lightly on the tip of the ship with her bare feet, and then flapped the abyss half-wings behind her. She instantly rose into the air, floating above the battleship.
This is why Vivian wanted to take a boat and specifically chose the smallest one.
Shirley easily used her aura of falling into the abyss to cover the ships below, and then went back on her own.
Doing this will not only make the Abyssal creatures swimming to attack stop abruptly and scatter back as if nothing happened, but more importantly, it can also package them into dead objects.
Shirley had the ability to forcibly control these fallen creatures, but the reason why she didn't do this was to avoid disturbing the situation.
Having had experience in the Fire Domain, Fallen Abyss is somewhat similar to the neural network of an insect swarm. Once his subordinates lose control, the leader will be able to detect it immediately.
To be continued...
