Chapter 735 Chapter 419 The Successive Sirens (4K)
In front of the Observation Base, the towering city walls were slightly damaged.
The massive Giant Serpent war machine lay hundreds of meters away from the base's walls.
Its body was shattered, nearly severed into two pieces.
At the very forefront of the Giant Serpent war machine, there was still a bulky figure half-kneeling. It was a Legendary Troll with deep blue skin, its entire body already cracked open, its eyes as wide as bronze bells, filled with confusion, reluctance, and terror. Its life force gushed out like floodwaters breaking through a dam, until it reached zero.
Until its death, the Legendary Troll could not understand why there was a Peak Heaven and Earth Realm powerhouse in this small human stronghold.
After all, the strongest in Tianyuan City were not at the Peak of Heaven and Earth Realm.
It died with its eyes open.
The Battle Armor General, who had struck down the Giant Serpent war machine and killed the monster's Legendary Realm with just two moves, was now deeply furrowing his brow.
"What's going on? Why would our Observation Base be suddenly attacked?"
The adjutant spoke, "Could it be that the Orochi clan realized the importance of this place, thus launching a sudden attack?"
The adjutant was referring to the important warning instruments within the Observation Base.
Certain forces of the Fallen God, or overlords on the level of Dragon Sleep Valley, naturally knew that Tai Xuan possessed means to forecast and locate the Heart of Corruption.
If the Orochi clan's backers wished to reestablish the Heart of Corruption in the Ten Directions Island Domain, their first action would be to uproot this forward Observation Base.
The Battle Armor General slightly shook his head, "Unlikely, if the enemy were aware that this is an Observation Base, the force of the attack wouldn't have been just one elite squad and a single Legendary Realm."
He paused for a moment, pondering the piecemeal intelligence gathered during this period.
These fragmented pieces of information were continuously reorganizing and combining in his mind, slowly forming a clearer picture.
"The Orochi clan might be launching a formal attack on the Tianyuan Territory. They've mistaken our Observation Base as one of the many outposts of the Tianyuan Territory. That is to say, right now, other outposts in the Tianyuan Territory are likely also under attack by the Monster Overlord."
"If these attack squads are also led by Legendary Realms, how can the mining outposts that Tianyuan City has established in the wilderness withstand them?"
The Battle Armor General analyzed that the Monster Overlord probably couldn't muster so many Legendary Realms or such massive attack forces.
He concluded there were two possibilities.
One was that the attack squads were a mixture of feigned and actual, some led by Legendary Realms.
The other was that the Monster Overlord concentrated their attack forces on a few spots.
The Battle Armor General turned to his adjutant, "Send a warning message to Tianyuan City, along with these possible scenarios."
The adjutant had barely taken two steps when he was called back, "Wait, dispatch several scouts to the two nearest mines to check on the situation."
He gazed up at the sky.
At some point, dark clouds had enveloped the land, obscuring the daylight.
The wind blew, carrying the rustling sound of leaves.
The Battle Armor General watched the sand being swept up from the ground, "A torrential rain, is coming."
...
"Drip drip drip~ Drip drip drip~"
In Tianyuan City, at a facility under the jurisdiction of the City Lord's Mansion, the Information Transmission Department.
The office of the Information Transmission Department was located inside an annex of the City Lord's Mansion.
Here, dozens of Rare Rank Communication Artifacts were stored. These Communication Artifacts came in various shapes and sizes, including mirrors, Treasure Beads, Crystal Balls, drawers, paper, and so on.
The methods of communication varied as well.
What they had in common was that the vast majority of Communication Artifacts came in pairs, with information flowing solely between the two.
At that time, a red indicator light on a storage locker lit up, followed by the sound of "drip drip drip."
A short-haired, bespectacled girl with a round face stood up with a bang. She rushed to the storage locker in three quick steps, glanced at it, and exclaimed, "There's a message, there's a message, it's from locker 05, a message from the Observation Base!"
"Misha Squad Leader, Tao, hurry over," she called.
A muscular woman carrying a large shield and a delicate-looking girl clerk hurried over.
All three took out a key.
"Ding~ Work card"
The storage locker opened.
Inside was a book-like Communication Artifact.
The short-haired round-faced girl, Orange, carefully lifted the book and flipped it open quickly, "A message from the Observation Base's Battle Armor General, the base has been attacked by monster forces, there's a hundred-meter-class war machine, Legendary Realm... The Battle Armor General adds a note..."
The round-faced girl's expression changed several times, yet she maintained an even and steady speaking pace.
As she spoke, her squadmate Tao lightly touched her fingertips, causing specks of starlight to flow and turn into the form of a book.
The book opened, and its pages began to record the spoken words of the round-faced girl, Orange.
Squad Leader Misha was reviewing the message alongside.
The message was not long; reading and recording were completed quickly.
Orange said, "According to our evaluation standards, this message is of the first level of importance. We must deliver it directly to the Lord Mayor."
She looked at Misha.
As the squad leader of the Information Transmission Department, Misha had the ability to directly contact the Lord Mayor.
They could also run straight to the Lord's Office.
However, since the City Lord's Mansion was expansive, and the Lord Mayor might not necessarily be in the office, directly using the Spirit Network to contact him was the fastest method.
Misha's eyes were somewhat blank.
First-level message... What were the standards for a first-level message again? She couldn't remember.
But it did not matter, as long as Orange remembered, it was as good as herself remembering.
"To contact the Lord, right? Leave it to me," Misha said.
She was about to use the Seed of Spirit when...
