Chapter 471: Lan Lingzhen (2)
To tell you the truth, every fire pit was specially made by a saint who specialized in refining formations.
The material was very special, and it was covered with runes and curses.
After setting it up on the ground, the entire fire pit would be integrated into the array.
Even a Quasi-Sage would find it difficult to destroy it, let alone move it.
It was a contest of strength against the entire Flaming Star Divine Fire Array. It was impossible to succeed.
This was also the reason why the outpost could be rebuilt so quickly despite being destroyed so many times.
As long as the fire pit was still there, the outpost would still be there. Even if there was no one around, they would eventually return to the command of the forward operating base.”
Su Mo suddenly understood.
No wonder no one cared about this fire pit.
Even a Quasi-Sage would find it difficult to destroy it, so why would the Trascendent below worry about it?
Song Zhongxing came to the fire pit and stared at the scarlet flames.
Then, Pang Ran sent his Divine Telekinesis into it and reported the news related to the parasite.
He ordered the surrounding outposts to strengthen their defenses while asking them to respond.
Soon, Su Mo saw tiny white dots of light appear in the red flames.
He guessed that this should be the response from the various outposts.
Song Zhongxing pondered silently.
As time passed, the expression on his face became more and more solemn.
In the end, he said with a dark face,
“There are five outposts that have not responded to us.”
Su Mo’s expression also changed.”
“Is it possible that they didn’t hear it, or that there’s no one near the base?”
Song Zhongxing shook his head and said,
“Unless it’s a special operation like mine, when the Divine Fire Pillar receives the news, everyone in the surroundings will be alerted immediately.
In theory, even if the team went out to patrol, they would leave at least two people at the outpost. It was impossible that no one heard the news.
Not to mention, the time I had been waiting for them had already passed the time of a patrol. No matter how far they ran, they should have returned by now.”
At this point, there was no need to continue explaining.
Obviously, something had happened to the five outposts that did not respond.
Moreover, the other outposts that had responded might not be able to survive the parasite disaster safely even if they had been warned in advance.
After all, those parasites had strange abilities and there were many of them. They were not something that ordinary mid-tier teams could deal with.
Even the squads of the army might not be able to win against each other. For details, Zhang Hongxing and the others could be used as a reference.
“Which outpost is the closest?”
Hearing this question, Song Zhongxing couldn’t help but look at Su Mo with praise and smile as he replied,”
“No. 103.”
“There’s no time to lose. We’ll go and rescue them immediately.
Even if he couldn’t save the people, it was good to kill those parasites!”
“That’s exactly what I’m thinking!”
..
Outpost 87.
Although the outpost was surrounded by rolling mountains.
However, the outpost was not set up on the top of the mountain like other outposts.
Other than the harsh climate on the mountaintop.
It was also because they had chosen a better location.
It was a hidden depression above Jichang Gorge.
The outpost was built here as if it was invisible.
If it was matched with various array formations set up here, it would be even more concealed.
As for the fire pit where the divine fire pillar was located, it was located 300 meters below the outpost.
There was even a building that was no different from the other outposts.
But that was a disguise that deliberately deceived outsiders.
In the past, this disguise had fooled many mirage demon attackers who came here.
There were even a few times when the enemy had blown up the place, but they had never found the real outpost hidden above.
On the contrary, the Trascendent in the outpost secretly followed them and secretly went up to cut off their heads.
Compared to the outposts in other places, Outpost 87’s achievements were particularly remarkable.
Of course, this was also determined by the terrain.
If it were any other outpost, it would be very difficult to make such a disguise.
After all, artificial camouflage was too obvious and could be easily detected. No matter what, it could not compare to a natural camouflage.
Naturally camouflaged locations were always rare and unique.
However, Outpost 87, which had avoided the fires of war many times in history, welcomed its first battle.
The attackers weren’t the bizarre-shaped Mirage Monsters.
They weren’t the vicious and temperamental evil cultivators either.
Instead, it was a large group of insects that seemed to have completely covered the sky, the Soul Stealing Worms!
Sun Shaoming and his teammates, as well as the original garrison members of the outpost, were all standing in front of the various arrays of the outpost, constantly injecting origin power/energy into them to mobilize the array to attack the insects outside.
Large swaths of Soul Stealer Bugs were dodging the attacks while madly crashing into the thin, semi-spherical shield.
From time to time, one could see faint ripples on the barrier. It was obvious that it was under unimaginable pressure.
Seeing this scene, Sun Shaoming was filled with hatred, but there was nothing he could do.
Back then, when their team member Xiao Li self-destructed and bought them precious time to retreat, they had been forced to retreat.
In order not to waste Xiao Li’s good intentions, they immediately retreated.
However, because he had expended too much energy in the battle, he could not increase his speed for the time being.
He could only return to the outpost 87 first and rely on the many arrays set up in the outpost to obtain a chance to catch his breath.
However, what they never expected was that when they arrived at the top, they discovered that the outpost was also being attacked by Soul Stealer Worms.
According to the garrison team, the Soul-Stealing Bugs could sense the location of the spirit of the ship.
Many of the concealment arrays in the encampment were ineffective against them.
Thus, they easily discovered the location of the outpost and started a large-scale offensive and defensive battle.
Even with the help of many arrays as protection, it was difficult to defeat those Soul Stealing Bugs for a while.
Not to mention that as time passed, the number of Soul Stealing Bugs increased.
During this period, they had also received a message from the fire pit.
A team leader named Song Zhongxing informed them about the situation related to the parasite and hoped that the various places would respond.
However, they could hear the other party’s words, but they had to stand near the fireplace to reply.
The fire pit was 300 meters away from the outpost.
The distance that was usually covered in the blink of an eye had now become an insurmountable moat due to the existence of the massive number of Soul Stealing Bugs.
As a result, he was unable to inform the other party of the situation here and ask for help.
But in Sun Shaoming’s eyes, it didn’t matter.
This was because they had already sent out a distress signal to the base at Jichang Gorge.
Even if Song Zhongxing received the news from here, he wouldn’t be able to catch up to the base.
The reinforcements from the base had yet to arrive, and they were about to fall into defeat.
Although he knew that there were two evacuation routes leading to other directions at the outpost, he was still able to escape.
But now, everyone was tightly stuck to the array.
If there was a slight flaw, the entire defensive situation could collapse on the spot.
Not to mention the two paths.
It was very likely that the moment they moved, the array formation would be broken through by the Soul Stealing Insects outside.
At that time, it would undoubtedly be a complete annihilation.
Sun Shaoming looked at the successful soul snatching, his eyes flashing with a fierce light.
He had no intention of continuing to escape after escaping all the way here.
However, just as he was about to detonate the second-generation warframe on his body like Xiao Li did…
A faint whistling sound suddenly came from the outside world.
Then, the whistling sound grew louder and louder.
In the end, a red curtain suddenly covered the entire sky.
In the next second, the curtain suddenly fell and rapidly shrank.
Hundreds of thousands of Soul Stealing Bugs instantly disappeared.
The sky in front of him became clean.
At a glance, it was unprecedentedly clear.
Then, the cloth ball that was still struggling gradually stopped moving.
In the end, it turned into a small bag and fell into the hands of a young woman.
After opening the formation, Sun Shaoming and the rest bowed to the long-haired woman in the sky,”
“Greetings, Chief Lan!”
Looking at the people below, the head captain of the Third Main Team, the Tier 9 ranger Lan Lingzhen, said gently,
“I bumped into a hive on the way and was delayed for a while.
This chapt𝒆r is updated by frёewebηovel.cѳm.
You guys can recuperate here first. There will be other team members coming to pick you up later.
I’ll set off immediately. There are other outposts that need my support.”
“Chief Lan, have a safe journey!”
Sun Shaoming and the others agreed.
Lan Lingzhen nodded and suddenly turned into a stream of light, flying towards the east.
