She left just like that, without staying longer to chat.
Wang Jixuan was actually a little unconvinced.
He was clearly the first to arrive, so why did he end up being passive?
The Daoist didn't quite like being passive…
Actually, he didn't even know if he preferred to be active or passive. His Dao heart felt a slight flutter, a kind of realization he had never experienced during his arduous cultivation, spreading through his mind.
This mortal world's heart-refining wasn't bad after all.
Wang Jixuan watched Ling Tong board her personal transport plane.
Then, with his hands in his pockets, he walked past a group of busy soldiers like a young man strolling through the streets, arriving at his own transport plane with a slightly puzzled look.
Mudan's delicate nose twitched, smelling a hint of spring.
"Commander, we're leaving in three minutes."
"Okay."
Wang Jixuan sat back in his seat, habitually crossing his legs and meditating. He stared blankly at the projection screen and map sandbox in front of him for a few seconds before chuckling to himself, entering a state of deep concentration.
The hum of machinery immediately echoed throughout the airport.
The upward passages of the airport opened simultaneously, transport planes adjusted their engine directions, ground crew quickly cleared the area, and a large number of mid- to high-level mechanical bodies gathered in the passages, waiting for the empty spaces in the second wave of transport planes.
The countdown for the surprise attack had reached zero.
No one shouted to start the operation, but everyone was executing the different orders they had just received.
"Commander, we need to change into our armor."
Mudan gently reminded him from the side.
Wang Jixuan responded and opened his eyes, looking at the several areas flashing red on the holographic map in front of him.
Those were their assault points.
Point One was confirmed to have a King-level Blade Beast hiding in a deeper underground area, with a network of Blade Beast passages.
Ling Tong's semi-human mecha group would launch a surprise attack on the King-level Blade Beast under the cover of the army's full firepower, still using the tactic of forcing it out before encircling and annihilating it.
Several precious earth-penetrating nuclear bombs were ready to be launched.
Point Two covered a larger area, sensed by Wu Man, with traces of the Beast Speaker's activity.
Point Two was located northwest of Point One, four hundred kilometers away. It was on the rear side of the Blade Beast front line, and also had a complex underground nest structure, with hidden King-level Blade Beast energy reactions.
The command suspected that the Beast Speaker and the King-level Evangelist 'Gari Nough' were in the same area.
Wang Jixuan's Peak Maid Corps, the second-generation semi-human mecha Black Shell leading a large number of high-level mechanical bodies and semi-human mecha teams, as well as the Buddha Hall Squad, would all converge on Point Two.
Once Point One was engaged, they would observe the energy reactions at Point Two. As soon as the Beast Speaker's trail was confirmed, they would launch a thunderous strike.
And on the larger map.
Thousands of miles away from Point One and Point Two, or even further, three giant Blade Beast projections advanced slowly.
Those were the Blade Beast groups converging here, enduring the bombing from the space fortress.
'With a great war breaking out, the situation is treacherous and unpredictable. This Daoist must remain clear-headed at all times,'
Wang Jixuan thought to himself, taking out a silver needle and gently twisting it between his fingertips before inserting it into the top of his head.
[Daoist Secret Art: Heavenly Gate of Ruthlessness].
… …
The Point Two area on the map in front of Wang Jixuan.
Two hundred meters underground, inside a spacious cave.
Several underground shuttles drove out of the passage and stopped at the edge of the cave, opening their hatches.
Seven men and women jumped out of the shuttles.
Their figures were all wrapped in a faint black mist, their expressions mostly indifferent. In addition to their original psychic energy fluctuations, they also had the fluctuations of the crystal nuclei in their abdomens.
Beast God Sect psychic energy users.
They all looked at the only figure sitting in the shuttle.
[Beast Speaker] Zhuge Zheng.
They could all see that the Beast Speaker was in a very bad state. He was like an old man with dementia, his eyes somewhat dull, his breathing sometimes fast and sometimes slow.
The Beast Speaker suddenly shuddered, as if waking from a dream. His eyes regained their sharpness, and several moving bulges appeared under his skin.
He cursed a few swear words and jumped out of the hatch.
At this moment, two high-level 'Evangelist' Blade Beasts emerged from the passage in the corner of the cave. They each retracted their middle pair of feet, stood upright, and tried to imitate human mouth organs, condensing into the faces of a man and a woman on the conjunctiva, indescribably strange.
"Greetings, esteemed guests, please come this way. Your residences have been arranged."
The Evangelist Blade Beast's strange voice echoed in the hearts of several people:
"Lord Beast Speaker, the High Priest is waiting for you."
High Priest?
They were using words that humans could understand to describe the King-level Evangelist's position among the Blade Beasts.
The Beast Speaker nodded and turned to his subordinates, saying, "You guys go rest first. The offensive should be launched within three days… Let the world recognize our power again, it all depends on this battle."
"Yes!"
"Boss, is your body okay?"
"I won't die," the Beast Speaker said in a low voice, "The Spirit Awakener ambushed me. When we break through the D5 Integrated War Zone, I will definitely kill that Spirit Awakener's student."
One of the men chuckled, "Give me some fun before killing her?"
The Beast Speaker ignored these perverted topics. He followed a high-level Evangelist, lowered his head, and walked forward, traversing through the passage filled with the light of crystal nuclei, arriving at a 'sphere' chamber.
Another standard sphere.
'Blade Beast Priest' Gari Nough was prostrate in front of the curved wall.
On the wall were simple patterns, pieced together from tiny crystal nuclei, depicting the twelve pillar-level Blade Beasts, also known as the Beast Gods in their mouths.
The Beast Speaker was no longer surprised by this scene.
He bowed to the curved wall, then walked to the corner and sat down in a chair made of Blade Beast exoskeleton, dozing off again for a while.
"When do we attack?"
The Beast Speaker shook his head, his voice filled with anger:
"I'm already going crazy!
"I want to kill them all!
"You said it! As long as I can kill that boy, that boy who took part of my soul, I can return to normal, maybe even directly advance to an SS-level Spirit Awakener and complete a leap in ability!
"Then why aren't we attacking now? We can clearly crush them! Now we have to wait for those big guys to come over, and their movements are under the surveillance of the D5 military! Our plan will lose its suddenness!"
"You… are too impatient…"
The 'Blade Beast Priest' slowly stood up and spoke directly in a strange tone, saying slowly:
"You underestimate humans… mechanical bodies… and semi-human mecha…"
"I underestimate them? They have been suppressed by Spirit Energy Capital for decades!"
"Actually," the 'Blade Beast Priest' had quickly adapted to speaking, "It is Spirit Energy Capital that has been suppressed by Fu Jian for decades."
"Huh?" The Beast Speaker was full of confusion.
The 'Blade Beast Priest' said slowly: "Previously, all the sleeper individuals lurking in the human world, before they were found by humans and named Brain-Eating Worms, directly transmitted information to me. Therefore, I have been observing the human world, observing Fu Jian and the D5 Integrated War Zone."
It leaned on its scepter and walked towards the corner step by step, constantly explaining:
"In fact, the gradual control of the human world by Spirit Awakeners is an irreversible trend.
"Because Spirit Awakeners have mastered individual power, and the main power of the human world is technological power, and the manipulators of technology are individual humans.
"But Fu Jian's decisive attack more than fifty Earth years ago, using nuclear bombs to deter the six old Spirit Slaves, greatly slowed down this trend.
"The sign that Spirit Awakeners have seized the right to speak is the birth of the 'T32 Spirit Energy Act', which requires all war zones to hand over the captured crystal nuclei to Spirit Energy Capital, which indirectly or directly controls the right to speak in more than half of the war zones.
"But this does not mean that the ruling faction of Spirit Energy Capital truly controls the human world.
"The main body of the local war zones is still officers of all levels. The semi-human mecha technology and autonomous mechanical technology led by Fu Jian have been developing.
"It can be said that Fu Jian had already vaguely perceived my existence a long time ago, probably thirty or forty years ago, or he suddenly understood that Blade Beasts can also think, and are monitoring humans, and that the thinking ability of the Blade Beast race is far above that of humans with supercomputers…
"Fu Jian tried to guide Spirit Awakeners into a great war with us.
"But Fu Jian does not know that the Six Elders and the three Spirit Cultivators behind them only want to attach themselves to human civilization to suck blood, be reborn, and continue the civilization of Spirit Cultivators at their core."
The expression condensed on the conjunctiva outside the mouth of the 'Blade Beast Priest' showed a bit of helplessness:
"This is what I have been telling you, we do not want to completely destroy humans, we only want to eliminate Spirit Cultivators.
"Spirit Cultivators are the source of all disasters, and when Spirit Cultivators separate from humans, we will coexist peacefully with humans after eliminating all Spirit Slaves and withdraw most of our forces.
"Because there will be no contradictions between us."
The Beast Speaker closed his eyes and took a deep breath: "How much of these words can I believe?"
The faces on the 'Blade Beast Priest's' conjunctiva showed a bit of doubt: "Blade Beasts are a race without lies."
"But you have a standpoint, your own standpoint."
The Beast Speaker shrugged and spread his hands:
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ is ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!
"You still won't tell me why the twelve powerful Beast Gods are asleep, and why the main Blade Beast group is not active now.
"You keep saying that you can mobilize hundreds of King-level Blade Beast groups, so why not do it now?
"You can break through D5 with twenty King-level Blade Beast groups and kill that trash Spirit Cultivator and his student together!
"I'm about to collapse now!"
"I'm sorry," the 'Blade Beast Priest' said in a low voice, "I can't say these things."
"Why can't I say it? Don't you think it's absurd? You clearly possess an absolute advantage! Then go eliminate D5, make them submit!"
"Because the Blade Beasts are a race without lies."
The 'Blade Beast Priest' stared at the Beast Speaker:
"I've nurtured you for so long to be a messenger for the Blade Beasts to communicate with humans, not a questioner."
"You need to calm down. In three days, you can implement your plan."
The 'Blade Beast Priest' gently raised the scepter in his hand and slowly lowered it.
Two mysterious symbols appeared in the Beast Speaker's eyes, and his condition immediately recovered somewhat.
The Beast Speaker supported his forehead and slumped back into the chair made of Blade Beast exoskeleton, gently exhaling.
"Alright, I was too impatient. My current condition is particularly bad. For six or seven minutes out of every hour, I can't feel my own existence. My subordinates have already begun to suspect that I've gone crazy."
"They will be loyal to you, don't worry... Look here."
The 'Blade Beast Priest' waved the scepter forward.
Points of starlight gathered, forming a simple projection in the dark cave.
They were two strangely shaped doors, the material of which should also be Blade Beast bones, but they were white all over, inlaid with dozens of huge crystal cores.
"What is this?"
"A pseudo-stargate, a replica."
The 'Blade Beast Priest' said slowly:
"This is something that has never appeared on this battlefield. Once it appears, it also means that humanity has entered the final countdown to complete annihilation."
"It's not perfect. It can only be used after a long time after each use, but its effect is unique."
"It allows you to be here, and in the next second, appear in an area thousands of kilometers away, and that area only needs to have a small group of raiders arranged in advance to carry its accessories."
The Beast Speaker muttered to himself: "Space teleportation?"
"Yes," the 'Blade Beast Priest' said slowly, "Once we activate this thing, humanity will be completely panicked, and the battle lines they have built will lose their meaning."
The Beast Speaker's eyes lit up: "I understand! When they gather heavy troops on the border, we will use four King-level beasts to attract their attention, making them think that we are going to attack from the outside, and then, we will use this space teleportation device to attack the human heartland!"
"Yes."
The 'Blade Beast Priest' said softly:
"So you don't need to be impatient, everything is under our control."
"However, when we use this thing, we must maximize the benefits."
"The goal you have to accomplish is not only to find and kill the Spiritual Cultivator's disciple, but also to find the stone tablet in Fu Jian's possession and bring it back to us."
"According to our senses, the stone tablet was activated in the area where Jin Gugang discovered the traitor last time."
"So, there will be many things for you to do: kill that traitor, find that stone tablet, and eliminate the Spiritual Cultivator's disciple."
"This is great!"
The Beast Speaker jumped up excitedly:
"Why didn't you say so earlier! Why didn't you say so earlier!"
"Let them speed up a bit! I can't wait to complete all the tasks you have assigned and retrieve my part of the soul!"
The 'Blade Beast Priest' nodded with a smile and said slowly: "You still need to hone your skills…"
Rumble!
A dull sound came from the earth.
The Beast Speaker's smile remained, and the face simulated by the 'Blade Beast Priest' showed a bit of astonishment.
Rumble——
Explosions rose one after another.
The sphere also began to tremble constantly, and the earth suddenly shook violently, as if there was an earthquake with a non-low energy level.
Goo——
The low-pitched moans of the Blade Beasts entered this place.
The 'Blade Beast Priest' was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "They are actually attacking us. The King-level general here has been injured by the explosion."
"Huh?" The Beast Speaker thought he had misheard, "What do you mean, they are attacking?"
"They have mastered a technology that allows specialized mechas to engage in combined combat. Last time, they used seven General-level mechas to encircle and kill our King-level."
The 'Blade Beast Priest' pondered slightly.
The explosions became more and more frequent.
The low-pitched moans of 'goo goo goo' rose one after another.
The situation was somewhat critical.
At this moment, the power of the Blade Beasts gathered in this area was not sufficient. The King-level Blade Beast that was originally stationed in this hilly area was being forced by the drill-core bombs to temporarily leave the underground nest.
"Go and help it," the 'Blade Beast Priest' looked at the Beast Speaker, "Destroying this group of human elites is not difficult for you."
"Okay, small problem."
The Beast Speaker shook his neck, and a hint of a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:
"Then before I go and kill the Black Storm, I'll collect a little interest first."
"The souls of the half-human mechas must be particularly interesting, hehe, hehe he."
A few minutes later.
Inside Wang Jixuan's transport plane.
"The psionic fluctuations of the Beast Speaker have been detected. The opponent is shuttling through the shallow surface, heading to Area One."
There was no fluctuation in Wang Jixuan's eyes, and he said softly: "Stop him, the Buddha Hall Squad is dispatched."
"Yes!"
