High Above Chapter 915

  Chapter 915 Great victory in the defense of Nanling and cleaning up the battlefield (ask for a monthly ticket!)

  The battle is over.

  When it was confirmed that the death knell of the great demon was gone, and the dragon kings had indeed left with the dragon of the abyss, Ian was relieved.

From the prophecy to the beginning of the war, until now, Ian has been continuously preparing and doing the work of the entire Nanling, not only to promote people's livelihood, but also to penetrate into the military and political circles. Nanling's troops exploded with unimaginable strength, and were able to resist the attack of the demon lord.

   This is a very tiring and exhausting thing.

Even with the help of the Heart of Terra, which controls the military production of the entire South Ridge, the specific production plan still has to be decided by Ian, and the new weapon design has to be manufactured by Ian himself, not to mention that the Heart of Terra is currently still in production. There is no way to independently produce high-precision parts, all of which need to be supervised by Ian or Adbert.

  This victory is basically a way for Ian to lead a group of people from Nanling to forcibly walk out of the 99% possibility of failure.

   But even so, Nanling still suffered a great loss.

  The Nineteenth Legion and Yinfeng led the troops to face the demon army on the first and second lines of defense, and there were still considerable casualties.

The army led by Yinfeng was fine, after all, they were originally elite, and they did not directly face the first wave of the demon army's impact. About nine hundred people.

  But the casualties of the 19th Legion exceeded 5,000—their level of mechanization was far lower than that of the Silver Peaks, and they had to deal with the first wave of beast monsters. Several positions were pulled out by fusion officers, and the losses were quite heavy.

Such casualties have already dismantled several establishments within the 19th Army Corps, and many veteran brigades have been organized and died on the front line... This is indeed an extremely heartbreaking loss. Every veteran in those veteran brigades can be pulled out as an officer Leading the team, their rich combat experience is even more invaluable.

   You must know that what they are facing is the first Transcendent Legion to officially appear in Terra Continent!

The army of demons was completely annihilated, and the demonic beasts in the raid were overwhelmed by artillery fire. With the power of a single army, the Nanling Legion wiped out the demon army that was not stopped by the seven legions of the Western Region Legion. Such a record, even if all the survivors Everyone was full of sadness in their hearts, but a raging sense of pride and a sense of accomplishment in protecting their hometown still made everyone cheer in the battle.

   "Not to mention..."

  Ian turned his head, he looked at the silver sun in the void: "From the perspective of the soul, everyone is actually not dead."

   "It is effective to immediately promote artificial souls to the whole people at the moment of perceived crisis... Huh, it can be regarded as enriching a wave of soul reserves."

  That is to say, in fact, the real soul reserves are actually those demon souls that are dispersed after death knell.

  These souls should have escaped into the Void Realm, and were finally captured and deleted by the Void Realm Machine God, or dissolved naturally—but now, the Heart of Terra is quickly taking action under Ian's operation to recover these souls.

  The solidity of the souls of demons is thousands of times stronger than that of ordinary people, and the souls of thousands of demons are enough to compare with the souls of hundreds of thousands or even millions of people.

   This is definitely a qualitative improvement for Terra—so far, there are less than 100,000 souls in the heart of Terra, and this will directly increase to ten times the previous one!

   Besides that, Ian doesn't want to do anything for the time being.

   In fact, there is no need to do anything. After witnessing the vision of the sky fire, the night turning into day, and the final victory, the entire Nanling has fallen into a sea of ​​cheers—everyone is cheering for victory, cheering...

  Nanling Defense Battle Victory!

  Flying flames.

   "*Flame swears*, what's going on?!"

   On the front line, the general of the devil, An Yuan, feels that he is really a devil as his name suggests, and the whole devil has fallen into the dark abyss.

  Nanling Great Victory? Nanling Devil Legion destroyed? Dragon King shot? The dragon of the abyss was arrested? Cursed soil shrinks? The demon army retreated in an all-round way?

  What the hell, wasn't he still attacking various cities in the western region yesterday, playing hide-and-seek with the imperial army? How did things get so bad all of a sudden!

  At this moment, the dark abyss feels like one big head and two big ones. I can't figure out what happened. The originally good situation will be ruined to this point!

   Not only he, the general, couldn't figure it out, but the soldiers below and the people in Flaming Land couldn't figure it out either.

  The demons are lucky to say that they are quite bachelors, and they have killed enough anyway, and now they can continue to transform and evolve when they return to Feiyan Land, but the people are different.

From the very beginning when Flameland took out the demon legion, there were many voices of doubt and opposition within Flameland—it's not that it's not good to use demons against the imperials, almost 100% of the residents of Flameland think 'for us' , use the Demon Legion against the Empire! ' This kind of thinking, they are just worried, whether the high-level officials of Feiyan will use their own locals as raw materials for converting demons.

  Yes, the reputation of the kings is not that bad, but in a place like Terra, don't trust the morality of these strong men too much... It may be meaningless to be a little more suspicious, but maybe you can avoid a big crisis?

With victories after victories, the people of Feiyan have become more and more accepting of the demon army. This is actually equivalent to taking out weapons of mass indiscriminate destruction during the revenge war against the enemy. Fear is fear, but it is also really cool to see the destruction befalling the enemy.

  But now, the demon army was suddenly defeated, and the fear came back instantly.

  —Devils can lose, so what if the imperials also use demons? What about invading us with an army stronger than demons?

  Although it sounds a bit like "Why did I know this earlier", most of the human beings have this mentality.

In particular, the imperial agents have not been doing sabotage these days, but have distributed various pamphlets about Feiyandi's defeat in Nanling and its retreat in the western region, making it impossible for Feiyandi to cover it up with public opinion. .

  For a while, the interior of Feiyandi felt a little precarious.

   But the kings of Feiyan were unexpectedly calm.

   It can even be said that being calm is a bit too abnormal.

No matter what kind of power it is, even if it is prepared to fail from the very beginning, when it suddenly encounters an enemy that theoretically would not attack, it will complain to some extent, or it will hold up its face and not back down. Performance.

But in fact, the performance of the flying flame land kings is very single: all the demons on the Nanling side were wiped out, and they didn't say a word, while the remaining demon legions in the western region continued to fight while retreating while fighting, Just sticking to the entrances and exits around the foggy forest, it is obvious that we will switch from an invasion war to a protracted war.

   It's just that, when the cursed soil shrinks greatly and the dragon of the abyss is also taken away, whether they can survive the big counterattack of the empire is a question.

   However, having said that, there are still many people in Feiyan's alliance of kings who have set their sights on Nanling.

  When the devil was used, they were already ready to hand over the dragon of the abyss and leave the abyss consciousness behind.

  But I never thought that this day would come so quickly...

   Moreover, the demon legion is not in the hands of the extraordinary army of the empire, but in the remote countryside of Nanling.

   No, it's not the country anymore.

  The powerhouses who were staring straight at Nanling discovered an astonishing fact at this moment.

That is, under the full transformation and development of Yinfengling, with the traffic avenues of Xiahui City, Nauman City and Harrison Port as the core, three large urban agglomerations have been formed, and they all use Various electronic information network technologies, including terminals, have many small inventions and tools that seem to only exist in the civilization of the previous era, and are used in people's lives.

  Brand-new agricultural system, industrially produced various fertilizers, highly safe industrially processed food, and a complete set of mechanized warfare systems...

  Ian's fight against the demon army seems to be just various splicing of alchemy and some simplified armor at first glance, but if you look carefully, you will find... Does this kid have a pre-epoch civilization database?

   "He might have."

  One of the kings said: "The Great Labyrinth of the South China Sea, the Institute of Alien Species, and even possibly, the inheritance of that fellow Inaiga... They were very opposed by the nobles in the empire at that time, so they were not successfully restored."

   "However, in Nanling, a small place where the imperial aristocrats insist on everything, no one will say nothing about his reforms in related aspects."

   "Earl Yinfeng first rebuilt his own territory, and then took advantage of the war to spread to more than half of Nanling. Now, Nanling is no longer a remote area, but should be a high-tech development zone with great potential."

   "Now, the only question is, is the empire using Nanling as a test field to observe the consequences of the transformation of related technologies? If so, then our situation may be more severe than imagined."

  In the unspeakable silence towards the outside world, Feiyan silently corrected his views on Nanling.

   What about Empire?

   Some people in the empire did sit back and watch Ian's reforms, and regarded Nanling as an experimental field.

  For example, the first prince and the second prince, the reason why these two support Ian is because they believe in Ian's ability, and Ian has shown similar technical tendencies to them.

  When the First Prince heard the news of the "Nanling Guard Battle Victory", he smiled and clapped his hands in praise. As he continued to read the relevant information, his eyes became brighter and brighter.

The united mind of the Chongling Sect, the activity of the Giant of Light, and the final blow against the death knell of the great demon... each of them scratched his itch, and each of them made him feel that Ian was worthy of the great talent he invested in. He did everything he wanted to do.

   "This giant of light's technology, whether it is psionic energy or source quality skills, I will definitely ask Ian for a lesson or two."

Nodding slightly, Carlos praised: "It can make people display the strength of the third energy level. If it wasn't for Ian's sneak attack on Feiyan Land that exposed this trump card, then anyone who thinks he can attack the Silver Peak leader will definitely Encountering its head-on blow - the general third energy level can't please at all, and the fourth energy level... Look at this big devil, I guess if the future fourth energy level doesn't have a confident hole card, it will not be willing to go to Yinfeng to lead it. Wreck it."

   Nonsense, what Silver Peak Leader showed this time is the four third energy levels of Ian, Xiou, Manya and Giant of Light. The choice of the Marquis of Barton to lay down the stall is really correct. If he must monopolize the power to suppress Ian, wouldn't the four third-level rebellions just go sideways in Nanling?

  Even if it is the fourth energy level, it is unwilling to come to this kind of place to make trouble. If it is dragged a little bit, and the corresponding fourth energy level of the empire catches up, the probability of falling is too great.

   And the other side.

  Compared to the first prince's surprise, what the second prince felt was partly frightened.

As the commander-in-chief of the Southwest Legion, Mikael has been confronting the kings of Nemathus recently, and he has to deal with demon riots in various places. Every day, he can hear cities and villages being razed and slaughtered. Hearing that some troops had been wiped out of the establishment... He really clenched his fists, wishing he could rush straight into Feiyan Land and carry out a massacre to fight tooth for tooth, blood for blood.

   But who knew, one-third of the Demon Legion entered Nanling, and Mikhail had already notified the empire that Fengxiang Knights were going to rescue the field, but it was completely useless—Nanling fought back by itself!

   What the **** is this?

  Although there were a total of more than 12,000 casualties around Nanling, the number of civilians killed and injured in the Golden Plain was even more than 250,000, and the number of demons and lemurs killed was only about 3,000.

  The army exchange ratio is more than four times, and it is even more terrifying if you count mortals... But one side is just a mortal army armed with mechanization, and the other is an extraordinary army!

   Such a battle loss is terrible, but if you have to say it, this is definitely a big victory.

   And such a result also made Mikhail feel excited.

   "The technology left by my grandfather is indeed correct!"

He looked at the Nanling report in his hand, and made up his mind: "I have nothing to be ashamed of. I acquiesced in allowing him to freely use all technological developments in Nanling. What I want is this-there are many external reasons for the failure of my grandfather's reforms. Although Nanling is chaotic, But as long as you stand firm, no one can tell you what to do."

"It's easy for a brand-new technology to take root and sprout in a place where there is nothing, but if it is deployed in a place like the imperial capital, it will be very difficult... Yes, my grandfather made a mistake here, he always thought of top-down It is a mistake to promote the reform from the imperial capital to the whole country, it should start from the rural areas like Nanling, and when the results come out, the people from the imperial capital will be envious, jealous, and choose to follow!"

   "This is the right direction!"

  At this moment, the gloomy look in his heart due to the serious loss of the Western Territory Legion was swept away, and the whole person cheered up, then raised his head and looked in the direction of the imperial capital: "Father...you should have seen it too?"

   "What on earth would you do?"

  The emperor was silent. The emperor observed everything in Yinfeng collar earlier than everyone else. He knows, but doesn't care, he approves, but doesn't act.

  Because he also has his own way.

  Different from his father, different from that beautiful and idealized vision...The landkeeper always walks on his own path.

   At the moment.

   Nanling battlefield, after a simple victory celebration, Ian led the team to start cleaning the battlefield.

  Compared with strategic advantages and a smooth future, it is more important to have a lot of chicken feathers... and a lot of gains.

   In just one night and one day, the Nanling troops have already gained a lot.

First of all, the heart of Terra recovered the souls of almost all those who died in battle—the reason why it is almost not all is because demons also have the ability to destroy souls. The battle is so fierce that it is impossible for everyone's souls not to be destroyed. The rather disturbing point made Ian determined to transform the artificial soul, cover it with a shell or something, and ensure that the heart of Terra can fully recover all souls.

But Ian was the only one who was dissatisfied with such a result. Everyone, including Yadbert, felt incredible about the power of Chongling Sect: they were able to recover more than 98% of the souls on the battlefield. It's so easy!

Regarding this achievement, Ms. Ying X, a priest of the Huaiguang Church and a bodyguard of the professional rescue force "Holy Light Squad", who did not want to be named, said that it is difficult for Huaiguang to do this kind of thing. The souls of the victims have an inexplicable connection with the holy mountain, but this connection cannot maintain protection even if it is far away.

   Chongling Sect is still a local sect after all, and it is outrageous to be able to do things of this level - so, who would be afraid of death? Who fears war? The Nanling army had already won more than half of the battle before the battle started!

   In addition, the heart of Terra also recovered a large number of demon souls.

  Because the process of recovering the demon soul and dismantling and purifying it takes a while, it is not considered a real gain for the time being. However, after the death of Void Creatures such as lemurs and demons, some spiritual materials will indeed be left behind.

  For example, devil horns, devil hearts, devil claws, etc... Although these materials cannot be used for bloodline true forms, they are definitely no problem for psionic accessories.

  Of course, the psionic ornaments made from these materials may cause the holder to be a little irritable and irritable, but it is better than nothing!

   Not to mention... Ian can try to purify them!

On the Nanling battlefield today, there are more than 2,000 copies of demon materials, and there are also a large number of monster materials left over from the army—Ian announced that the Yinfeng leader will buy all the spoils on the battlefield at market prices, hoping that the soldiers will privately Take out the hidden materials.

  He spelled out the dangers that demonic and Warcraft material could pose, and swore on his own credit to be absolutely fair and just.

  If it was other nobles, even if they were afraid, the Nanling soldiers would definitely not cooperate in silence—reputation? Where does the reputation come from? Who are you?

   But the one who said this was Ian!

  Just led them to defeat the demon, bravely fought against the death knell of the big devil, and the prophet lord who never retreated from the beginning to the end!

  Can he have any bad thoughts about them? Certainly not, it is definitely for their own good!

  So, everyone obediently handed in their spoils.

  Of course, some soldiers just want to keep some of the enemy's bones as trophies to show off back home, and Ian will also be very kind to identify whether the trophies in their hands are hosted by evil thoughts and grievances for such soldiers. If not, he is also willing to be generous.

Such a move made the 19th Army Corps and the troops led by Yinfeng cheer for their commander on the spot—if the original officers and commanders of the 19th Army Corps saw this scene, they would definitely burst into tears and their eyes would go dark, but now They couldn't help it anymore, even if they were extremely depressed, they had to cheer with everyone.

  Because, starting today, due to the invasion of Flameland, Nanling is no longer a scattered cluster of small and medium nobles!

   It is a complete, unified province under the governance of Ian and the Governor's Mansion!

  Of course, the most important loot is definitely not the small fights of these little devils and lemurs.

  Ian, Yadbert and others came to the Void Realm, the place where the great devil's death knell fell.

  Here, there is a group of dark ghosts that are recondensing, trying to recover into a dark gem.

This jewel-like mist gathers and disperses indefinitely, like a collection of stardust, reflecting the raging blood-colored flames in the void... It seems to want to learn something from all directions, but in the end it can't do it, it can only Give up dejectedly.

   "The Legacy of the Great Demon."

  Ian whispered to himself: "Although the abyss dissipates, or is taken away by the abyss consciousness, the most essential soul core is still there."

   This is the real reward.
