"Alright! Honghong, start the awakening process immediately!" Old Fang gave the order decisively, not caring that it might displease Yu Shen. But there was a reason for it, and Yu Shen would understand. He wondered what level Yu Shen had reached.
"Awakening process initiating..."
However, Honghong's voice soon rang out again, "The user is unwilling to wake up from the dream and strongly resists the awakening procedure. Awakening failed. Repeat, awakening failed..."
"What if the power is cut off directly?" Old Fang shuddered after asking the question, almost wetting himself. How could he be so careless with his mouth?
Honghong replied, "There are three possibilities for a direct power outage: First, the user may fall into a permanent sleep; second, the user may awaken but be in a state of chaos, indiscriminately killing enemies; third, the user may awaken but may suffer damage to their soul."
"Let's forget about that then, let's think of another way..." Just as Old Fang finished speaking, the base's alarm sounded. "A powerful enemy has invaded! Honghong, seal off the base immediately! And check the situation outside."
"Okay, the base is being locked down." Honghong opened several virtual screens as she spoke.
At this moment, gunfire erupted on the outer defense line of Cangquan. The defending troops desperately resisted the invading monster army by relying on the fortifications, but the defense line was still torn open in several places, and it would not be long before they attacked the core area.
Old Fang and Daisy gasped in shock; there were so many enemies!
"Wait, that doesn't look like a human. What kind of monster is it?!" Old Fang was horrified.
"Those are genetically modified orcs, equivalent to the mid-stage of the Overlord realm. I just didn't expect there to be so many. What are the border guards doing? How did they allow such a large army to reach Cangquan?"
Daisy was truly enraged. Judging by this situation, the orc armies on all sides must number around 100,000. Had they become so complacent after more than a decade of peace?
"Now is not the time to discuss this. We need to quickly come up with a way to defend the base. Honghong, do you have any good ideas?" Old Fang asked.
“Based on the analysis of enemy and friendly forces, the best course of action at present is to consolidate our defenses, hold our ground, and await reinforcements, while defending the core area to the death. We could also escape the base by spaceship, but I’m sure you wouldn’t agree to that,” Honghong said.
"Then let's hold out to the death. Siyu, I'm sorry to have dragged you into this," Elder Fang said solemnly.
"You should be happy. With me as an additional combatant, we can at least hold out for a while longer. I think we should establish our final line of defense at the Yuan Energy Training Ground. Hopefully, Feather God's situation will end soon. If the power goes out, we'll be in big trouble," Daisy said with some worry.
"Honghong, prepare backup power and energy supply to ensure Yu Shen's training continues, while continuing to try to access the wake-up program." Old Fang glanced at Xiang Yu inside the training machine and sighed inwardly, "What are we going to do..."
At that moment, all television stations and online platforms in Country C broadcast a news report: the lunar base and the Cangquan base had simultaneously suffered a large-scale terrorist attack, accompanied by live footage.
The whole country was in an uproar. While it couldn't be certain that the monsters that appeared at the Cangquan base were the work of Country A, there was only Country A on the moon besides Country C, so the identity of the enemy was self-evident.
A spokesperson for Country C strongly condemned Country A for provoking war and undermining peace, and hoped that Country A would pull back from the brink and immediately cease its corresponding military operations.
Country A immediately issued a clarification, claiming that its strength on the moon was less than one ten-thousandth of Country C's, and that attacking Country C's lunar base would be futile. The warships of Country A that appeared over Country C's lunar base were there to support Country C, not to attack it.
The superpowered Blood Demon who appeared on the moon has been missing for several days. Country A suspects that he has joined a terrorist organization and that his actions are unrelated to Country A.
As for the monster army that attacked Cangquan Base, it was clearly created by Country C itself. Otherwise, how could it have silently broken through Country C's border defenses and reached Cangquan?
Public intellectuals quickly jumped out to defend Country A, saying that this was clearly a terrorist organization framing Country A, that Country A's base on the moon had already sent troops to rescue Country C's base, and that those who were now attacking Country A were ungrateful.
Some people started criticizing Country C, saying that if Country C had shared its energy production technology earlier, this situation wouldn't have happened. Even if this crisis could be resolved, there would definitely be a next one. It would have been better to share it with the whole world sooner.
The internet exploded instantly. While being criticized, the public intellectuals hired online trolls to cheer them on, showing great dedication and sparing no effort to side with Country A.
Some public intellectuals even claimed that the claim that country A was behind the attacks was a conspiracy theory, suspecting that the two terrorist attacks were a conspiracy by some people in country C with ulterior motives, that they had staged the attacks themselves, and that their purpose was to deliberately create trouble, provoke war, and frame the peace-loving people of country A.
These public intellectuals and online trolls have completely shattered values. I really don't know why the country keeps these ungrateful parasites who pollute the environment.
A food court in City S.
There are legends circulating about three newly crowned competitive eaters.
The three young ladies have magical abilities to help them process the delicious food they eat, so they can eat as much as they want without gaining weight, let alone bursting from overeating.
However, once you've tried all the delicious food you've been looking for, it doesn't taste as good anymore.
So, the three young women, along with one older and one younger bodyguard, found a place to rest and watch a movie.
Yu Ji and Li Canghai both chose to watch a romance film, while Xu Fu selected a very old animated film and was watching it with great interest.
However, the sudden news interrupted them.
"It seems like something big has happened," Xu Fu said, pouting.
Yu Ji slowly stood up. "It seems this world isn't entirely peaceful either. The God of Wine said not to let them disturb the Overlord. Let's make our move."
"It's entirely up to you, sister," Li Canghai said with a slight smile.
"Why don't you ladies stay and enjoy yourselves on the border? Leave the fighting to me and Xiaoyaozi." Xiang Sheng touched his storage ring and pulled out two gleaming longswords.
"Wow!" The surrounding customers exclaimed in amazement. Was this magic? Pulling it out from his crotch?
“That’s right, I’ll take care of the moon, and Xiang Sheng can handle Cangquan.” Xiaoyaozi also stood up, his casual clothes transformed into a wide robe, and he regained his usual ethereal and otherworldly appearance.
Yu Ji, Li Canghai, and Xu Fu exchanged glances, somewhat tempted, but then thought better of it. If they continued eating like this, it might damage their image in Xiang Yu's eyes.
Besides, it's always good to do something to help digest food after a meal.
"I've made up my mind. You two men will take care of those monsters in Cangquan. The three of us will go to the moon. I've never been there before." After saying that, Yu Ji changed into her fairy clothes, and Li Canghai and Xu Fu did the same.
Snap snap snap...
"Wow!" This time, applause actually broke out from the crowd. This magic trick is amazing, and they're even doing cosplay!
Then.
"Let's go!" Yu Ji and Li Canghai were both at the peak of the Fusion Realm, and Xu Fu was also a strong person at the early stage of the Fusion Realm, so their escape speed was extremely fast.
Soon after, three radiant and stunningly beautiful fairies appeared in the sky above the C country's base on the moon.
Everyone in the Shenjian's main control room gaped, staring at the spectacular sight above the moon, their minds filled with phrases like "fairy descending to earth" and "Chang'e flying to the moon."
"My two elder sisters, I think we should say something before we make a move," Xu Fu said with a slight smile.
"What?" Yu Ji unleashed the pressure of the peak of the Fusion Realm, instantly stunning both sides in the chaotic battle below, who dared not move an inch.
Xu Fu put one hand on his hip, pointed at the blood demon below, and said, "In the name of the moon, I will destroy you!"
Chapter 546 Heaven
"In the name of the moon, I will destroy you!"
Although Xu Fu's words sounded fierce in a cute way, they had a tremendous impact on everyone, because his voice resonated directly in everyone's minds.
Normally, neither space nor the moon has air as a medium for sound transmission, so speaking and hearing would be impossible without the communicator inside the helmet. But now everyone can hear clearly.
"Sailor Moon?" Alice blinked, then added, "A fairy version?"
"Yes, a fairy." Jun-ge decisively adjusted the camera to a close-up. "She's really beautiful...wow!"
Yu Ji used her power to imprison all the Blood Demons of Country A within the range of Country C's lunar base, treating them all equally, whether they were the originals or clones.
The Blood Demon struggled to raise its head, a flash of red light in its eyes, and Yu Ji felt the blood in her body surging, which then quickly subsided, and nothing happened.
"What?!" The Blood Demon was dumbfounded. He tried two more beautiful girls, but it was no use either.
He had encountered this situation when he had just awakened his superpower, where the other party was at a higher level than him, but how could this be possible!
"What are you all standing there for? Arrest them all! Aren't these top-quality elemental energy materials? If you don't want them, I'll kill them all." Li Canghai held a sword in his hand.
"Do as she says, capture all the intruders and send them to the Yuan Energy Furnace!" The voice of the second generation of sages resounded in everyone's ears.
The C-country people immediately reacted, and with a snap, they turned these bio-modified humans into raw materials to be processed, rendering them incapable of suicide. Those on the verge of death were also put into soul bags. At the same time, medical personnel began to treat the injured C-country people, and those who needed to be bagged were bagged.
"Quick, quick, accelerate the retreat!" The lunar commander of Country A witnessed this scene firsthand. They performed a magic trick for Country C to bring a large army to the moon. Before they could even celebrate, Country C performed a magic trick in return. Three fairies, in the midst of laughter and conversation, represented the moon and annihilated the army.
Then, the Watcher of Country A emitted a sound almost like it was constipated, and no matter how hard the engine tried, it was difficult to fly away from this terrifying area.
"What's going on! Is the spaceship malfunctioning? You bunch of useless idiots! I told you to take good care of the spaceship, but instead you're messing around in the cockpit. Do you think I didn't see anything?!" the captain roared.
"Captain, the spaceship isn't malfunctioning, there's someone blocking the way in front of it," a crew member said in a panic, pointing to a beautiful figure on the screen.
"What nonsense!" Captain Watcher looked up. "Damn it, can humans breathe freely in space?"
"Go down." Li Canghai pressed down with his palm, and the large warship of Country A was instantly pulled off course, like a sharp arrow shooting towards the crater.
"Pull up quickly, reverse quickly, turn around quickly!" The captain of the Watcher closed his eyes; this was it, it was all over.
boom!
The spaceship exploded, but fortunately, the helmsman of the A country's warship pressed the ejection button in time. The entire main control cockpit separated just before the spaceship crashed into the mountain and flew out while spinning.
Xu Fu accurately caught the cockpit on the other side. "Done, job done."
In Cangquan, the killing continued. The outer garrison refused to retreat in an attempt to buy time for the inside, but to little avail.
At the largest breach, a soldier from Country C, buried in the rubble, roared out his innermost thoughts, "Fire at me!"
Then.
A satellite-based energy cannon rained down from space, a massive beam of light directly overhead the dense monsters. Many in Country C never imagined that they would one day use their own satellite cannon to attack the Cangquan base.
However, Cangquan is too large, and there are too many enemies coming. It is impossible to pass through here. Other monsters can detour elsewhere. Even if the city wall is replaced with a metal structure, it is not very useful to these bio-engineered monsters with sharp teeth, claws, and scales all over their bodies.
However, the Cangquan base is built deep underground, and the largest passage is the skylight passage that allows space warships to take off and land vertically. With layers of defense, it is not easy for these monsters to break in.
unless……
boom!
Another satellite cannon shot fell from space, hitting the ceiling directly above, but was blocked by an invisible shield.
This is another invention of C Country's Yuan Energy Technology: the Yuan Energy Shield. In today's technologically advanced world, many countries possess satellite cannons. Although they do not have Yuan Energy, the essence of satellite cannons is to attack the ground from space, making them extremely difficult to defend against.
Therefore, Country C established two lines of defense. The first is a space defense line to protect the space area above Country C, and the second is an energy shield that can withstand about ten shots from a regular satellite cannon, which is enough time to deal with a typical sneak attack.
But there's a problem: the Earth is constantly rotating, and not all satellites in space are geostationary. Country C didn't shoot down all of other countries' satellites.
Therefore, satellites from other countries often pass over Country C, and there are quite a few of them. Each civilian satellite may be a disguised satellite cannon, and it can only be detected when it bares its fangs and launches.
However, the world has been at peace for too long, and Country C has become too powerful, so Country C has become somewhat complacent. In addition, Country C's space force has just been attacked, and it did not expect foreign countries to be so bold.
While the lunar base was preoccupied with its own problems, many disguised satellite cannons had already secretly moved to the skies above Country C. One satellite cannon shot after another rained down on the skylight passage, including attacks from elemental energy satellite cannons.
Satellite cannons have such high energy that unless they are deliberately preserved, they will melt away after firing, destroying all traces and making it very difficult to investigate which country launched them.
But now that so many satellite cannons are attacking Cangquan, there can only be one answer: it's either Country A, which has the most satellites in space, or other countries are involved, kicking someone when they're down and taking advantage of their misfortune!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Even the strongest energy shield has its limits, and the gate of the skylight passage was blasted into fragments by satellite artillery fire.
Finally, we've reached the bottom.
Fortunately, the Cangquan base is not at the very bottom of the skylight; there is still some distance between them. There are also sturdy gates in the passageway between them, and even the underground core area is protected by an elemental energy shield.
Bio-modified monsters surged down from the skylight like a tidal wave, with many jumping down directly. Who could stop the influx of tens of thousands of monsters into the Cangquan base?
