Chapter 214 Apocalypse-Class Battleship
Adam appeared in front of Anikoon one step ahead.
Spiritual energy roars and a storm suddenly arises.
He raised the power sword in his hand, pouring surging spiritual energy into it. A pillar sword more than ten meters long pierced the rain curtain, and then slashed forward with force.
Sulfon!
The brilliant pillar sword and the ferocious black scales of the spiny dragon collided fiercely with the head with protruding canines.
In an instant, blood, fire, and psychic debris exploded together.
Invisible ripples swept across.
Various steel building materials falling from the sky were twisted and shattered by this force, and shot out like shotguns.
The shrill sound that broke through the air was like the roar of beasts.
Huge power fell from the sky and was transmitted along Adam's body to the city wall below him.
The ground was sinking, the tall city walls were shaking violently, and the flaming spiritual energy in Adam's body also exploded unstablely at that moment.
But eventually.
Adam stood firmly in place.
Like an impenetrable high wall, it shields the wind and rain from Anikoun.
call…
Adam inhaled sharply.
A large amount of air was injected into the chest engine, and the roar was like a supersonic aircraft roaring overhead.
The superb swordsmanship is close to the Tao, as if it is an innate instinct.
Adam bent down and turned sideways.
Using all his strength, he used all his strength to drive the sword blade to slash at the side shoulder of the spiny dragon.
Stab!
The armor forged from super alloy was as fragile as a rotten wooden board in front of the power sword that shone with spiritual energy, being cut open in an instant.
The smelly blood shot out from the wound like a fountain.
Adam twisted and turned. Hold the blade horizontally with both hands.
The pillar sword pierced into the body of the spiny dragon changed its direction under this force, and cut along the muscles of the neck with a straight sharp angle.
laugh!
After the pillar sword left the body of the spiny dragon.
A huge V-shaped wound appeared on the neck of the spiny dragon.
A sword light of more than ten meters long penetrated the body, and the monster's head almost detached from the body in this blow.
If it were a creature native to the world of Terraria, such a fatal injury would basically be a death sentence.
Even template creatures with super vitality.
After being beheaded, it is estimated that the possibility of survival is not too great.
But the Spiny Dragon is a war weapon created by the insect nest, and their body structure is far from being judged by normal principles.
"The back of the neck!"
Anikoon coughed violently.
The body on his body has been severely damaged after the violent collision and the invasion of the hive consciousness.
But she still struggled to get up and shouted in a hoarse voice, "Be careful, it's not dead yet."
Adam held a sword in one hand and picked a sword flower at random.
The other hand waved casually, indicating that he understood.
It breathes in and closes its eyes.
When he opened his eyes again, the pupils formed by countless interlocking gears and crystals were glowing with a faint blue aura.
Void spiritual energy fills the whole body.
In this state, everything that happens in front of you is different.
All objects are constructed of slightly illusory lines, which also means that Adam standing on the city wall can clearly see the internal structure of the enemy's body in front of him.
There are countless densely packed ganglia that connect muscles and organs throughout the body.
And these tens of thousands of ganglia extend in all directions, extending from every corner of the limbs, and finally converge to the back of the neck and spine.
It forms an irregular tumor that is like a heart, constantly beating.
"Damn it!!!"
In the few seconds that Adam and Anicorn were talking.
The leader of the Thorny Dragon has recovered from his serious injury. The scales glowing with metallic luster clicked loudly in the rain, and the muscles contracted to cover the wound.
A long and narrow wound that almost decapitated the monster with a sword.
At this moment, it seemed as if it didn't exist.
The insect hive creation is so terrifying.
Even Athas monks such as Enikoen and Macni couldn't help but shrink their pupils slightly when they saw such a scene, and there was an unstable noise from the engine.
yes…
Within three hundred years.
These people have aged due to their long sleep, and their memories have faded away.
But the enemy is constantly evolving.
To this day.
What is certain is that the Insect Hive is definitely many times more powerful than when it appeared in the Golden Age.
Before he could think about it carefully, the attack from the leader of the Thorny Dragon roared towards him.
Black claws, wrapped in storm wind and translucent arc light, appeared above Adam's head like a mountain.
Boom!
The irresistible force swept across the city wall and slammed into a well-preserved executioner machine gun tower not far away. Along with the wail of the machine soul, the entire iron tower exploded into pieces, countless parts and debris flew away, and the incomplete tower body flew more than ten meters and crashed down with a rumble.
But such a powerful blow failed.
Long before the giant claw fell.
Adam's body disappeared out of thin air and turned into countless light blue light spots.
The void twists.
It appeared on the back of the spiny dragon, as if taking root under its feet. No matter how the spiny dragon shook its body, Adam's tall body remained motionless.
With a slow and solemn gesture, he drew out the power sword in his hand.
"Five hundred years of life are like a dream."
A sigh.
Thick smoke billowed out of Adam's body, and azure spiritual energy surged out like an ocean abyss.
Raise your sword and stab.
Poof!
The scorching void spiritual energy instantly poured into the monster's body, and the spine with countless osteomas grew like rotten wood, instantly breaking and evaporating.
Boom!
The spiny dragon's hill-like body finally stopped moving.
After twitching twice, he collapsed to the ground.
…
In the hall of dusk and sunset.
Adam returned to the huge floor-to-ceiling window facing the south.
The war is over.
But the damage caused by the insect swarm to the city is still shocking. Especially the third innermost city wall was originally the best-preserved city wall in the city.
But now, after being attacked by the spiny dragon leader, a large area collapsed and was almost completely scrapped.
The enemy's attacks became more and more violent.
Now, the effects of the city walls and the defensive buildings attached to them have become quite limited.
If the enemy becomes stronger in the next defensive war.
The entire city wall may completely collapse.
The main purpose of the Dusk and Sunset Hall is to store Adam and the Void Manzo.
besides.
Although the industrial buildings in this city are also very precious, with worker bees and enough materials, it is not too difficult to replicate them.
The current situation is not about stationing and passively defending on an island where the barrier between the island and the real world is getting weaker and weaker.
Rather.
Organize the resources on the island and change places.
"grown ups…"
When Adam was deeply immersed in thinking.
Behind him, Anikoun's soft, feather-like voice came.
"Um?"
Hear the call.
Adam turned around and looked at the think tank behind him.
It has been some time since the battle ended. After changing into new colonial clothes, Anikoon's body returned to its original state.
The characteristics of Brother Attas are reflected in this.
Under normal circumstances.
As long as the spiritual energy is not completely wiped out, even if the colonial equipment is destroyed for a short time, after the spiritual energy is transferred to a new body, it can still return to the battlefield after a period of recovery.
Of course, there is a limit to the number of such transfers for Brother Attas.
Every transfer will cause loss to Brother Athas' spiritual energy.
After the spiritual energy is depleted to a certain extent, it will collapse.
Lost consciousness and completely turned into a machine without emotions.
After the war is over.
Many Athas monks lost consciousness during their long slumbers because their spiritual energy was depleted too much and could not be replenished.
Fortunately, Enikoen is the youngest Attas monk.
In addition, as a think tank, his psychic level is far beyond that of the same level.
After changing the body.
Anikoon recovered quickly and is now able to complete the basic work of a think tank.
As a human aristocratic girl in the Golden Age, even after becoming a think tank, Anicorn still exudes amazing beauty. The soft spiritual glow shines from her body, bringing a touch of warmth to the originally cold and dark hall. meaning.
"I'm here, what do you want?"
Adam nodded slightly.
There was a little tenderness in his tone.
His and McNee's emotions, or the emotions of most Attas monks in this era, are similar.
Three hundred years later.
Things are different and people are different.
Only a few contemporaries around him can bring some comfort.
Naturally, I cherish this emotion even more.
Compared to McNiannicorn and others... Adam is slightly better. At least he still has Su Heng and a group of brothers and sisters.
These simple emotions and dependencies.
They formed "anchors" in a complex society, making Adam feel that he was still an individual.
Rather than a tool, or some kind of killing machine.
After abandoning the human body.
These Athas monks represent the emotions of human nature, but they are even more intense.
In the golden age.
Some sociologists call Attas monks "whole people", and now it seems that there is indeed some truth in this.
"I..." Anikoon raised his head and looked at the tall figure in front of the window.
Compared with three hundred years ago, many changes have taken place in Adam.
But the gentle and powerful feeling given to Anikoun has not changed at all.
The think tank girl paused.
She hesitated, but in the end, Anikoun mustered up the courage and said loudly, "Sir, have you forgotten all those things that happened three hundred years ago?"
“…”
Looking at the girl's expectant eyes, Adam did not answer directly.
But after pondering for a while, he asked, "I once heard a saying that a person is composed of past memories, current speculations and future goals. Ainicorn, do you think, for those of us? , what is the most important thing..."
"I see."
Anikoen lowered his eyes and sighed slightly.
But soon she regained her composure.
Whether Adam's memory is restored or not, it doesn't have much impact on her.
Being able to follow the Lord and strive towards a common goal is enough for Ainicorn now.
Anikoon said no more.
Adam turned around and looked at McNee, who was shrouded in shadow on the other side.
"You seem to have something else to say."
The defeat on the battlefield made the old company commander fall into self-blame. If Adam hadn't taken action at the last minute, the think tank Enikoen might have completely disappeared.
Such a loss is for the current Atas war group.
It's absolutely unacceptable.
"Yeah." McNee looked up at Adam, then nodded, with a hint of exhaustion in his deep voice.
"A few days ago, when Kenny, Alais and I were collecting resources outside, we felt the psychic energy emanating from the mothership from a distance. Unfortunately, at that time, the insect swarm invasion had already begun. There wasn’t much time left. So, after I asked Kenny to leave a mark, I took the others and followed Anikoun’s arrangements, returned to the Lost City, and prepared for the subsequent invasion of the insect nest.”
"Now you mean..." Adam's eyes moved slightly.
McNee is indeed an experienced veteran, and he and Adam thought of a certain point.
"Yes."
McNee said calmly, "I can feel that the attack on the insect nest is just the beginning, not the end. In the first attack, powerful biological legions like the Spinosaurus were dispatched. After that, it is hard to say whether there will be more trouble." The opponent has arrived."
"Void Manzo is the crystallization of human civilization. Protecting it is a mission we must complete... But now, the lost city built to protect Void Manzo has gradually decayed over the long years."
"I think it's time for us to move our position."
"Enicorn, what do you think?" Adam looked at the silver-haired machine girl and asked softly.
Among the many Athas monks.
Anikoun has the richest preserved memories. In addition, it was born in a family of naval admirals, and its understanding of this sea area and various weapons and equipment is far more familiar than Adam, McNee and others.
"I agree with Captain McNee's suggestion."
Anicorn hid his thoughts deep in his heart, spoke calmly and unhurriedly.
"In the golden age, the capital ships of the Imperial Navy were divided into three classes, from bottom to top, the Opel Dragon class, the Storm class and the Apocalypse class. Among them, the Opel Dragon class and the Storm class were the most numerous, and the Apocalypse class was the most numerous. Rare, in the era when mankind has entered the boundless starry sky, the technological power of all mankind has been gathered, and a total of only seven Apocalypse-class battleships have been built."
"As for the battleship discovered by Captain Mekni and Technical Priest Kenny, it is very likely that it is the Hall of Valor among the seven Apocalypse-class battleships."
"The boundary wall near the Lost City has been corroded by the swarm of insects. If the main position can be moved to the Hall of Valor, not only can it better protect the core of the inheritance, Void Manzo. But it can also help us better Good collection, the remaining resources in the stormy sea."
Mention the swarm.
Anikoen's eloquent voice paused slightly.
In the information pollution that poured into her body like a black tide, she seemed to hear the words "traitor" and "puzzle of life" unintentionally.
So, what is the purpose of the insect swarm?
What happened to the insect swarm in the past three hundred years?
"What are you thinking about?"
Absolutely cold.
A voice came from in front of me.
"ah…"
Anikoen was startled by Xiao Xiao. He raised his head and saw that at some point, Adam was half-crouching in front of him, with a huge mechanical palm waving gently in front of him.
A few weak rays of sunlight passed through the gap behind Adam, the sky was covered with red clouds, and dawn had arrived quietly before he knew it.
"Ha ha."
Adam didn't care what Anicorn was thinking.
I just felt that the little girl's reaction was really interesting, so vivid, just like in the past.
"Now that everything has been decided, the goal of our trip is the Hall of Valor." Adam stretched out his hand and placed it in the void.
McNee was slightly startled.
There was also a slight smile on his face, and he stretched out his hand with Anikoon, who was floating in the air like an elf.
Bang!
Three palms of different sizes and shapes.
bump together.
The crisp sound of steel clashing echoed in the dusk and sunset hall filled with morning sun.
