213: The response of the Saida world
“Indeed, the environment is a bit harsh!” Yi Xin also nodded, especially since he was currently in “Xu Heng,” and the contrast between the two was simply too obvious.
“Ran Quan’s world is truly terrifying, Miao!” Miya-pasu also nodded in understanding; she couldn’t imagine how one could survive in such an environment.
“Uh, you’ve misunderstood.” Ran Quan began, explaining that while he had briefly described his world’s situation before, it was merely a simple explanation, and now he saw that everyone had some misunderstandings.
Ran Quan quickly explained the situation of his world and his current location to everyone.
“So it’s The Ground World! Terrifying, no wonder you all had to move underground to live…” Lin Zifeng nodded in understanding. No wonder, with The Ground like this, it was truly impossible to live there.
“The environment is indeed quite harsh!” Lin Ze nodded. His world was also an apocalypse, but it was slightly, just slightly, gamified, and overall it was still okay. Although it was an apocalypse, it might be a game of the gods or a new evolutionary path for humanity, who could say?
Compared to Ran Quan’s world, Ran Quan’s world should truly be called an apocalyptic world… Look at this wasteland…
However… Lin Ze’s world was also “not bad,” as extreme weather often occurred. People in his world frequently asked: What “weather” is refreshing today?
Just as Ran Quan was chatting with them, the figures of those robots finally appeared in the distance.
“Are these the foreign invaders of your world, Ran Quan?” Everyone looked at the robots appearing in the distance.
A large number of robots, lined up in formation, were approaching.
At a glance, there were at least over ten thousand of them.
And there was more than just one large spider machine!
There were three in total.
They were spread out in three directions, with considerable gaps between them.
“All units!”
With a single command, all weapons were poised and ready.
When the robots entered the attack range.
“Fire!”
Da da da~~~
Swoosh swoosh swoosh~~~
Countless energy bullets and energy missiles were launched.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
War instantly broke out.
And the robots immediately launched a counterattack.
Those “mass-produced robots” all charged forward, one by one like suicide squads, their hands transforming into air cannons, firing as they rushed.
And those spider machines were even more outrageous.
Their eight legs had numerous holes, and countless small missiles flew out from them.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Don’t let these missiles fool you; each one had several times the power of the “mass-produced robots’” air cannons.
Not only that, the spider robots also had a strange machine extending from their backs… and then it opened up an… energy barrier!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
On Ran Quan’s side, countless volleys of firepower struck the energy barrier, all of which were blocked, unable to shake it.
Immediately after, the spider machine’s “rear” opened up, like rain, pulling out countless “mass-produced robots.”
Damn it! This machine can also spawn troops?!
Everyone naturally noticed this scene, but fortunately, the capacity of these spider machines seemed to be limited.
They spewed out about a hundred mass-produced robots before their “rear” closed again.
In other words, these spider machines were actually just “transport machines”? But they still served the dual purpose of “battlefield” output and defense.
So… this large group of machines, perhaps… was still just a Vanguard Army of that “civilization.”
This much of an “army,” for the combined forces of the Three Great Technologies, which is the entire civilization of the Underground World, the entire strength of humanity, looked powerful, but was actually vulnerable.
The battle lasted less than 10 minutes before it concluded.
The Ground was a mess, but then again, the environment on The Ground World wasn’t great to begin with; now it was just a different kind of mess, equally bad.
Although they won, everyone’s expressions were not very good, especially after witnessing the power of these machines; they all looked very solemn.
After all, the technological power displayed by those machines was very strong! Not simple at all!
This was only the Vanguard Army; there must be even stronger technological forces behind them.
After all, who goes all out right from the start?
“It seems this plan needs to be put on the agenda earlier!” The three leaders exchanged glances and instantly agreed. The plan they had been discussing was directly approved, as this was no longer a matter of calculating minor gains and losses.
Instead, it was about confronting a battle from another world!
Sometimes, humans engage in internal strife, but then unite against an external threat.
Humans themselves are extremely complex beings.
The original plan was the “Dawn Project” for The Ground World, which was currently underway.
This was the current construction of defense lines.
Although The Ground World couldn’t be occupied permanently, they would initially proceed in shifts.
The defense lines should ideally be established beyond the Fifth Defense Line, with each line being 10 kilometers, meaning a distance of 50 kilometers.
This way, no matter the situation, a minimum fallback would be guaranteed.
Of course, if it were simply that, they could have achieved it long ago, and it wouldn’t have taken so many years for this plan to be proposed, or even put on the implementation schedule.
The reason they dared to do this was due to advancements and breakthroughs in technology.
They could now “build” an area suitable for human survival in The Ground World.
This meant it could resist the effects of “wasteland radiation,” “extreme weather,” and so on, from The Ground World.
Of course, the cost was extremely high; transforming the entire Ground World was impossible.
However, creating a small area was not a problem.
Although the expenditure was significant, for the Three Great Technologies, it was still bearable.
Coupled with the current pressing circumstances,
there was no longer any hesitation.
After all, the flames of war could not be brought underground!
That would destroy the entire Underground World.
The Underground is not like The Ground World; the structure and overall stability of the Underground World itself are maintained by technology and various facilities.
This is also why the Underground World is divided into 13 districts and is very fixed, because expanding it would require an extremely huge amount of manpower, material resources, and financial resources!
So, up until now, as they’ve developed, their focus is not just on expanding the Underground World, but on both in parallel, simultaneously thinking about how to “reclaim” the right to survive on The Ground World!
After all, it’s always wise to have multiple preparations; you shouldn’t put all your eggs in one basket.
Thus, the Three Great Technologies sprang into action, effectively combining the strength of all humanity.
