Divine Tribulation of the Star Civilization - Chapter 1108
[1108. Memory under time and space (2)]
As the saying goes, if there is one, there are two. If you want to find soul crystals, the first step is to build a permanent residence for the Quentin people deep enough in the north. The second step is to explore for soul crystals, and the imperial army must be stationed and form a long-term effective protection. .
Therefore, the essence of the Northern Expedition mission is to unintentionally expand the borders of the empire and drive away all entities that harm the interests of the empire. It is by no means a short-term war. In fact, the time has come to test the empire’s wealth.
However, the days passed quickly, and the imperial army had been stationed in front of the majestic trench for several days.
Although the millions of troops moved slowly, and could only pass a few hundred people at a time, they overwhelmed several weak “bridges”, which were crumbling and had to be repaired every day.
And these armies need to consume huge amounts of food every day. At this time, the army’s front line is too long, and the disadvantage of being unable to keep up with supplies becomes more and more serious.
Calculating this, with such a march progress, it would take hundreds of days just to reach the other side. What’s more, at that time, they had not even seen the legendary barbaric aliens.
Time waits for no one, and there are still many resurgent forces in the empire that are secretly coveting this action. Countless people are also waiting and watching, and the Grand Army must speed up its action.
The first problem to break through the natural chasm was thus placed before the rulers.
At this time, a young psychic in the army came up with his own plan: He volunteered and was willing to lead an elite advance army of a hundred people composed of “gods” and “gods” to cross the bridge first and go to the northern border to investigate.
He hoped to find suitable garrison sites for the army behind him and set up military camps along the way. Whenever he found a suitable place, he would build fortifications and establish strongholds, and then expand the strongholds in circles until multiple strongholds were connected to form a solid foundation for the future. Quentin’s army arrives to make long-term plans.
At the same time, he also gave thoughtful suggestions to allow the remaining legions to continue to build and strengthen the passages on the moat, prepare supplies, ensure supplies, and detach part of the army to replenish the strongholds he established, so that more legions could pass through at a faster pace.
This young man had neither background nor qualifications, but his ideas were reasonable and reasonable. He could achieve his goal quickly and arrange the army properly without any delay. It was a brilliant plan.
In this way, he quickly gained the appreciation of the nobles in the military.
The ruler also found that this young man was quick-thinking and talented. The only shortcoming was that he had too many advantages. He was a rare talent. As a result, he quickly became the favorite of the empire’s upper echelons and the royal family. Even the Jupiter family immediately decided to accept him as a member of the family, conferred a title on him, and ordered him to lead troops to the north.
Within weeks of his departure, more than a dozen temporary bridges were being built to connect the two continents. Although the amount of work is huge and the difficulty can be imagined, small groups of legions were finally able to pass through.
The scale of the completed bridge was still too small, so according to the plan, the army was divided into two parts and headed north in batches. The troops stationed in the south continued to build the bridge, transport supplies, and speed up passage.
Hearing this, Zhuge Yun stopped and nodded, “This young man is very opinionated.” Quintasha also stopped, with a flash of light in his eyes, and continued, “It’s not so much that he has opinions. He is said to be an ambitious guy.
“Oh, it is rare to be ambitious. What did he do later?”
“When his brain was still bright, he always wanted to create some miracles and use forceful methods to fight a flesh-and-blood war. “
, For example: Invading the hinterland of the Dark Continent, killing all the barbaric creatures living in the caves, and taking the opportunity to seize their territory and everything. “
“What is this man’s name?” Zhuge Yun suddenly asked.
In the darkness, Quintasha did not notice Zhuge Yun’s cold eyes and said calmly, “His name is Gudos Jupiter, and it is said that he later became the last remnant of the royal family of the Kunting Empire.”
The atmosphere in the air suddenly changed. stagnant.
Zhuge Yun still stood there, silent for a moment and asked, “Did you see him again later?”
“Yes, but that’s another story.” Quintasha’s tone was a little low.
“Go on, tell us what happened after you arrived in the North.”
Quintasha and Zhuge Yun looked at each other, slightly surprised, because he felt the sudden surging aura coming from the other person’s body.
Quintessa said while walking, “The people of the Empire have never been so deep into the heart of the Dark Continent. For them, that place can take away their lives at any time…”
On the fifteenth day of the painful march, the elite team They have left the natural moat for more than 600 miles, leaving many marks along the way. Every 300 miles, two people are sent back to report the news. Three temporary contact points were built along the way, and finally on the sixteenth day, we arrived at the foot of a huge mountain range in the north.
This is a plateau, surrounded by rocky hills and shoals, making it impossible to camp. So the elite team walked towards the foot of the mountain for a long time, and they discovered a forest composed of plants they had never seen before.
It was getting late, and dozens of people rested in the forest for the night after setting up traps.
In the early morning, Gudos arranged for new scouts to look out at the edge of the forest, while the rest continued to rest. Gudos, who had extremely limited military knowledge, actually didn’t know how to ambush, but there were a few veterans in the team who were familiar with this method, and the layout was quite decent.
Quintessa felt uncomfortable, because he often had hallucinations in that forest, and the world in his eyes seemed to be broken. The plants were cut apart, as if they had been broken and reorganized, and there were all kinds of strange things. The screams sounded in my ears from time to time. He saw the soldiers busy, cleaning their weapons, talking to each other, but he only saw their mouths open, but no sound was heard.
At that time, he had just been born and did not know that his strength had not yet grown, so these hallucinations had a great impact on his keen senses. However, others did not notice any difference. Except that the climate became colder and strong winds blew from time to time, making them shiver, there was not much danger.
The scouts reported that many hoof prints were found in the area near the mountains. These marks were very deep and they should be animals they had never seen before. But the traces showed signs of being burdened, most likely some kind of livestock, and the team was about a hundred or so people.
This showed that teams of the same size often passed that way, and perhaps that road was originally trodden by alien patrols.
Gudos thought this discovery was very important, and immediately used necromancy to create a magic circle to sense changes in the surrounding energy. He used the insight of the air spirit to see that at this moment, a group of aliens were crossing the ridges of the world and walking towards the depths of the mountains.
But he didn’t know that these people were marching towards the holy mountain of darkness, which was pure, crazy, and full of death, in order to find divine grace.
Gudos believes that following them may reveal more secrets here.
After some mobilization, the team set off immediately. It was approaching noon, and the poisonous scorch of the scorching sun became more intense on the earth, and the air began to be filled with poisonous mist. One moment they were shivering in the cold wind, and the next moment it became the torture of high temperature.
The yellow sand blew against the face with grains of sand, drying and painful. The elite troops of the Quentin Empire felt extremely painful. But this was only after Dark Continent was brought up normally, and everyone could barely accept it.
However, death always comes at the most unexpected moments.
