276: Chapter 276 Dimensional War
Under the horrified, secret prying eyes of various nations, a military fortress nearly one kilometer in diameter appeared out of thin air in Osialia. This shattered their understanding of reality, and many people were immediately rushed to the hospital in emergencies.
The proof was solid: this company was not human!
On the other side,
Inside the military fortress built through Lin Fang's efforts, more Clone Soldiers were being sent in, beginning to activate the fortress's facilities one after another.
"Commander, I've realized that you are actually our strongest combat asset," Isaac marveled as he looked at the fortress.
"It's nothing special."
Lin Fang spoke modestly. He had picked up this fortress back in the wandering earth plane because it looked quite good, and its equipment was sufficiently advanced.
A moment later, the fiber optics were connected, and Artificial Intelligence No. 3 took control of the military fortress.
Lin Fang didn't need any staff officers; an artificial intelligence capable of precise calculations was worth countless think tanks. It was the brain of the battlefield.
Most of the time, Lin Fang only needed to ensure that his military force was sufficient.
[Commander, the fighters to traverse the Mist have taken off.]
As No. 3 finished speaking, a small formation of fighter jets took off from the runway, piloted by several Clone Soldiers.
Fans of the wandering earth would find these fighters quite familiar—they were the J-20s that appeared most frequently in the movie. They would traverse the Mist at an altitude of six thousand meters, also for a non-combat purpose: simply searching for intelligence on the world on the other side.
Walking onto the fortress's observation deck, Lin Fang and Isaac watched as those few streamlined black fighters broke through the clouds and quickly vanished without a trace.
"Commander, Hive Base has accelerated the cultivation of Tyrants. Because we're in a hurry, they aren't complete forms, but they can form an effective combat force. I will deploy them to the battlefield as soon as possible," Isaac paused, then continued, "But..."
"Old Isaac, where's that ambition from before? Why have you become so discouraged?"
Seeing this, Lin Fang teased him.
Isaac gave a bitter smile. "I've discovered that the enemy is much stronger than us. I originally thought the Tyrant units would be able to enter the other world smoothly, but now it seems that just holding off the attacks of those creatures called Xenomorphs will already push them near their limit."
"I don't think that's all. They already know the situation of this world. According to standard military practice, Verland's main force is already on its way, and a full-scale war is about to break out."
Lin Fang nodded, agreeing with his words, then replied, "Don't be discouraged. The other side is a faction that has developed for hundreds of years, after all; they're bound to have some capabilities."
"Besides, we won't lose."
Hearing this, Isaac's eyes lit up. Was the Commander going to display his great power again?
He saw a creature that he was somewhat familiar with suddenly appear beside Lin Fang. They could open Wormholes leading to other worlds, but unlike the ones he had seen before, this individual was even more massive. Furthermore, its entire body was golden, radiating a special kind of majesty.
"Suzerain," the Kaminax King bowed respectfully to Lin Fang.
Lin Fang said solemnly, "Open a Wormhole to the Titan within this fortress as soon as possible, large enough to accommodate the Kaiju of your tribe. I need you to participate in a war, and my forces will also arrive through this Wormhole."
"It is our honor. The Kaminax Tribe is at the Suzerain's disposal at any time," the Kaminax King said without hesitation.
After speaking, he went to open the Wormhole.
Isaac asked in confusion, "Commander, what are Kaiju?"
"A type of giant monster. You'll know soon enough."
With a thought from Lin Fang, Venom, whom he hadn't seen for a while, emerged from the Black Star warehouse.
"Fang, is it time for war?" Venom emerged from Lin Fang's shoulder, looking at the surroundings with great surprise.
Lin Fang's expression shifted. "That's right, Venom. I'm counting on you. Only you can dominate the battlefield."
These words made Venom bubble with excitement. His long tongue greedily licked the air, as if he could already taste the flavor of fear and destruction.
"War! Blood! Chaos! Excellent, Fang! I've been craving a true feast for a long time!"
"Which one do you want to ride?"
Isaac didn't understand Lin Fang's words, but Venom knew exactly what he meant and said without hesitation, "Black Coffee!"
Hearing his words, Lin Fang gave a grand wave of his hand, and a terrifying monster nearly 220 meters tall appeared before them. The ground trembled when it landed. It was a monster that looked like a cross between a flood dragon and a crocodile, entirely black with thick biological scales.
This Kaiju, seeing the light of day once more, did not act as tyrannical as in the past or start rampaging through the city. It seemed to sense something and respectfully lowered its head to Lin Fang.
After seeing Venom on Lin Fang's shoulder, Black Coffee even seemed to know what Lin Fang wanted to do and carefully extended its claw downward.
Isaac, facing this monster, was dazed. Was this actually a friendly unit?
How many monsters like this did the company have?
Venom crawled along Lin Fang's arm toward Black Coffee, wearing a lecherous, obsessive grin. "Little crocodile, here I come..."
Soon, a blackened Level 6 monster roared wantonly toward the sky, venting its power.
Two hours later, a large Wormhole, 400 meters wide, slowly took shape in the center of the base. The petal-like structures inside the Wormhole were a deeper blue than ever before.
At the same time the Wormhole finished forming,
Far away in another world, the Black Watch Base on Titan emitted a deafening alarm. The employees in the inner world looked at this scene in surprise. Among personnel with Level B3 clearance and above, a message appeared simultaneously on their communication terminals.
Mission Name: Plane War, Mission Grade: SSS
These people snapped out of their daze, their hearts surging with overwhelming shock.
SSS-grade was the highest-level mission within the company, and in the employee handbook, the priority of an SSS-grade mission was—
At all costs!!
The more than 2 million players who were logging into the game "journey" and happily building on Titan also received a yellow warning on their interface; it was a game maintenance notification.
Unprecedentedly, the journey game, which had never undergone maintenance, was actually about to start maintenance:
[System Maintenance Notice]
[The "journey" game server will close in 30 seconds. All online players will be forced offline. Reopening time is to be determined.]
[Note: If any equipment is lost after logging back in, please contact the Quartermaster's Office for processing.]
[Shutdown Countdown: 29]
[26]
[22]
[...]
[2]
[1]
What the hell? Before those two million-plus players could react to the shock of the game maintenance, and before many could even type a "?" in the public chat, their vision suddenly went black.
