502 A strategic plan! Bombarding the sky-Sea Pavilion!
Only Pavilion master Zuo Ci and Ning Han were left in the building.
“You’re back?”
“Master, I’m back.”
Pavilion master Zuo Ci looked at her for a while and said, ” you’ve changed a lot, very much. Is this some kind of blessing? ”
it’s all thanks to the sky-Sea Pavilion. “Zhu hongxue has lost this battle. Is he alright?” Princess Ning Han asked.
“I’m a little lost,” Pavilion master Zuo Ci said.
“Teacher,” Princess Ning Han said,”there are some things that you should’ve told him a few years earlier. If you’d told him earlier, he wouldn’t have been so shocked this time.”
Pavilion master Zuo Ci shook his head. no, he’s different from you. Although you’ve received some kind of favor from Jiang Li, you’re not one of his people. Zhu hongxue was indeed created by Jiang Li from the inside out. You know that the remaining people of Jiang Li are very extreme. It’s already been engraved in their brains and blood.
Princess Ning Han said, ” but I believe that Zhu hongxue will definitely come around. What we’ve done is true justice. Of course, it’s a bit ridiculous to call it justice when it comes to us.
“Justice, justice!” Pavilion master Zuo Ci laughed sarcastically.”How many crimes have been committed in your name?”
Then, Pavilion master Zuo Ci immediately changed the topic and asked, ” “You’ve just come out of the great Devil’s Triangle, so you should know best. Do you think we should focus on developing the great Devil’s Triangle or the great desert? We can’t fall behind in this competition.”
Princess Ning Han was silent for a moment. teacher, what you said is actually very funny. On the one hand, we have to suppress the ancient civilization. On the other hand, we have to explore the ancient ruins and obtain the power of the ancient civilization. It really seems very contradictory.
Zuo Ci laughed,”that’s true, but the world itself is contradictory.”
It was just like the modern earth. On one hand, they all claimed to want nuclear disarmament and reduce the number of nuclear weapons to keep mankind away from the abyss of destruction, but on the other hand, several major countries were desperately developing more advanced nuclear weapons.
Princess Ning Han said, ” the great devil triangle belongs to the ancient Lost Empire. It’s incomparably huge, but it seems to have been developed more than once. A Lost Empire was born thousands of years ago, and even now, there are still people exploring these ruins. As for the great desert, it has never been developed before. Perhaps it means that there will be even greater surprises and gains.”
Pavilion master Zuo Ci moved the celestial globe in front of him to the great Devil’s Triangle, then to the great desert, and fell into deep thought.
Ning Han was right. The great desert was more meaningful to develop. Stupa mountain’s gains from developing this ancient ruin in the southern sea region were too great. It brought a huge shock to the other Supreme transcending powers.
It had been more than three years since stupa mountain had started to explore this ancient relic. However, they did not take the initiative to disclose any of their results. This was the most terrifying thing.
It was impossible for such a large ancient relic to not have any results. Moreover, in order to monopolize the southern sea, stupa mountain had even created several major earthquakes and destroyed the Xue clan, the South Sea Sword sect, and the entire South Continent City.
After paying such a huge price, how could there be no results? Moreover, if it was a mid-level achievement, stupa mountain would have announced it a long time ago. This way, they would be able to compete with the six Supreme powers and get more resources.
However, stupa mountain didn’t announce anything. This meant that the results they had obtained were very great. It was so great that it far exceeded the resources that the Supreme Council could distribute. They wanted to make a fortune quietly.
This Shen lang has wasted at least five months of our time. Pavilion master Zuo Ci said helplessly,”the passage to the great desert was about to be opened. This person really knows how to stir up trouble.” We’re already short on time.”
Princess Ning Han said, ” stupa mountain can’t wait for Shen lang to waste more of our time. I heard that the Yi Tian Pavilion and the Xuan Kong temple have secretly sent people to the great desert. They are trying to explore the huge ancient ruins there before us.
Pavilion master Zuo Ci replied, ” it’s useless to send a few hundred or a few thousand people to the vast desert. We don’t need to wipe out the kingdoms of the Western regions. That’s a desolate desert. It’s said to be ten thousand miles, but it’s far more than that. It’s harder than finding a needle in a haystack.
Pavilion master Zuo Ci was right. It would require an astronomical amount of manpower and resources to develop such a huge ancient ruin.
At that time, when the stupa mountain discovered the ancient ruins in the southern sea, many people thought that the ancient ruins wouldn’t be very big because it was discovered on an island. At best, it would be on the same level as the one in the sand primitive tribe. However, he didn’t expect it to be an ancient city that had sunk to the bottom of the sea.
Even so, stupa mountain had mobilized tens of thousands of people from the very beginning. Just the Naval fleet alone had more than 30000 people. Once the scale of the ancient ruins was confirmed, stupa mountain would immediately destroy the Xue clan and the South Sea Sword sect. They would turn the sea area that spanned three to four thousand miles into a forbidden land, and stupa mountain’s Army would enter and exit the area.
Now that three years had passed, what had happened in the southern sea? He didn’t know! It was because that place had become a forbidden zone. All trade routes had been blocked. Any ship that got close would be sunk by stupa mountain immediately. How many people had stupa mountain invested in this ancient ruins? He didn’t know, but there were definitely more than 100000 people.
Pavilion master Zuo CI’s plans were also extremely large. In order to develop the great desert, he had to first conquer the kingdoms of the Western regions, then build a huge supply and logistics base. After that, he would occupy all the entrances to the great desert before exploring and developing it.
“Hurry, hurry up.” Pavilion master Zuo Ci waved his hand and said, ” stupa mountain is getting stronger with every passing day. Time waits for no one. Let’s quickly get rid of Shen lang and not delay the important matters.
the fleet and the Army are gathering. We’ll be done soon. Princess Ning Han said, ” moreover, our actions in the various countries of the Western Region have not stopped. A few bases have already been built. The Army is also constantly moving in.
we have limited manpower, ” Pavilion master Zuo Ci said. we need to focus on developing the great desert. If we succeed, the sky-Sea Pavilion’s position will only be stable in the next hundred years.
It was the sky-Sea Pavilion’s hundred-year plan to develop the great desert.
..........................................
The palace of Wu country was extremely desolate.
Not only the Royal Palace, but the entire Royal City and the entire Wu country seemed to be in a state of desolation.
The great Yan Empire gave them too much pressure. The people of Wu country did not have as much confidence in Shen Lang as the people of Yue country. They did not believe that Shen Lang’s so-called great Qian Empire could protect them. It was still fine before Shen Lang’s imperial edict was released. Now that it was released, everyone was even less confident. Emperor Shen lang was too good at bragging.
In their fear, the people of Wu country used their feet to vote and began to flee.
Most of them fled in the direction of the Empire of Great Yan, fighting to be its people. There was also a portion of people who were afraid of destruction. However, they hated the great Yan Empire in their hearts. Hence, they fled towards the West, passing through Yan Prefecture, Chu country, Liang country, and the new Kingdom. Of course, no matter where they fled to, they would always be within the territory of the great Yan Empire.
Only a small portion of Wu’s people were on Shen Lang’s side. However, they were worried about the war, so they escaped to the Yue country.
There were fewer and fewer officials attending King Wu’s court sessions every day.
When the cabinet had just been destroyed, there were still more than 100 officials attending the court. Later, it became 100, and then dozens.
And today, there were only a mere thirty or so officials who had come to the court. These people were the true direct descendants of King Wu, and were willing to live and die with him.
“Your Majesty, shouldn’t we stop the momentum of their escape?”
King Wu shook his head and said, ” the army of the Empire of Great Yan is gathering more and more. It has already exceeded the military strength of our entire Empire by many times. It’s like a huge mountain pressing down on us. We have to allow others to be afraid. This extermination of the cabinet and betraying the great Yan Empire was ultimately the willfulness of my Wu Royal clan. Of course, I’m extremely grateful that someone wants to live and die with me, but I don’t have the right to ask all my subjects and soldiers to die with me. ”
“But Your Majesty, it’s not just the people who are fleeing. Even many soldiers have begun to flee. The morale and morale of the Army are getting lower and lower by the day.”
King Wu said, ” Emperor Shen lang said that he can protect the Wu and Chu countries. Any Army or faction that enters the territory of the great Qian dynasty will be wiped off the face of the earth.
As soon as he said this, the expressions of the dozens of civil and military officials present became strange. Do you believe his words, Your Majesty? We can’t believe it.
Wu Wang said,”of course, it doesn’t matter if you believe it or not.” If His Majesty Shen lang could do it and create another miracle, then it would be useless for the Wu Kingdom to have so many troops. If Emperor Shen lang can’t do it, then it would be useless even if we have a million troops. We would lose this battle without a doubt.”
we agreed to be reborn after being pushed to the brink of death. Then be prepared to die in battle.
When he said this, Wu Wang was already filled with indifference, and he was no longer impassioned.
“Open the city gates. Whether it’s the people or the Army, if they want to escape, let them. However, you must not take the opportunity to cause trouble, and you must not take advantage of the chaos to kill and plunder, or else you will be killed without mercy.”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
With Wu Wang’s order, the city gates of Wu country were opened and no one was stopped from leaving the city.
Thus, countless citizens of Wu country fled like the tide, away from this kingdom that was about to be destroyed.
....................................
After he returned to raging tide city, Shen lang did not rest for a moment. He only appeared for more than an hour during the wedding ceremony, then spent more than half an hour in the nuptial chamber with Zhang Chunhua. The rest of his time was spent in the huge underground laboratory.
He was completing an incomparably huge project that he had never done before.
At that time, other than the secret weapons, he had also obtained countless components and nightmare stones from the secret base of the Zhu family. Shen lang had been assembling these secret components in the underground laboratory.
What would these parts become after they were assembled? An extremely powerful firing device that could fire the giant arrow of destruction, Dragon’s regret, and even other giant weapons. As he got to know more about it, Shen lang realized that the ancient world was getting stranger.
What was Dragon’s regret? It was a strategic weapon that was equivalent to a nuclear bomb on earth. Otherwise, the ancient empire wouldn’t have needed to build an entire base on a secret island just to serve Dragon’s regret.
However, modern Earth’s nuclear bombs were so powerful. Almost all the advanced electronic devices were inside the nuclear missiles, such as road-grade launch, sea-based launch, and so on. The so-called silo was more of a cover.
However, the ancient Empire’s Dragon’s regret required a complete launcher, and the launcher was huge. The parts alone filled up hundreds of square meters of the ground, and there were more than 10000 different parts.
Next, Shen lang had to assemble the parts one by one from scratch. Fortunately, he had the smart brain and could perform countless calculations in a short period of time. Otherwise, it would take a few years to assemble the parts.
The scholars in the Zhu family’s Secret base couldn’t find the launcher, and they couldn’t even take control of Dragon’s regret. They had spent more than ten years trying.
However, they did not come back empty-handed. At least, they had completed 90% of the assembly drawings for the launch device. Even though they destroyed all the drawings after being attacked by Shen lang, scientists had a unique characteristic-they would never really destroy their work. They would try their best to hide it and swear that they would not reveal it even if they died.
However, after Shen lang used the truth serum, they revealed all the hidden locations of the secret blueprints. Shen lang only needed to complete the remaining 10% of the blueprints.
Therefore, in the past few months, whenever Shen lang was free, he would complete the remaining 10% of the blueprints in the AI. On the sixth day after the victory of the battle in Tian Yue city, he had completed the blueprint for the launch device of Dragon’s regret. When he returned to raging tide city, he immediately started to assemble it.
After a few days and nights of work, the launch device was 95% complete.
It was a gigantic object that weighed more than 200000 pounds. After all the components were assembled, the underground laboratory would be completely opened. Then, Shen lang would use a large roller coaster to transport the big thing back to the surface.
“My husband, His Majesty the Prince of Yue is going to the manor.” Zhang Chunhua walked into the laboratory and said gently. Her voice was as sweet as honey, making one feel sour.
“Okay, I’ll go see him off.” Shen lang said.
The next second, Zhang Chunhua reached out her hand and said gently, ” “Husband, you have to balance work and rest. You’ve been busy for a few days and nights, so why don’t you relax? There’s still a period of time at His Majesty’s side. How about Wuwu?”
....................................
An hour later, Shen lang took a bath and changed his clothes before he sent ning yuanxian off.
Zhang Ji’s family left the next day after attending the wedding and returned to tianyue city. The three of them, father and son, were now important ministers of Yue State. They were busy every day and really didn’t have half a day’s free time.
Although the Paradise Manor on Leizhou Island had not been completed, it was already habitable. This time, not only ning yuanxian, Shen Lang’s parents, su Peipei, and the rest would be moving in, but hundreds of children would also be moving in.
“No problem?” Ning yuanxian asked.
He had seen Shen Lang’s imperial edict and knew what the current situation was like.
Shen lang smiled. no problem. Of course, there is no problem. Father-in-law, you can live in the manor without any worries. However, there might be a deafening explosion one day, and then an earth-shattering fireball will rise into the sky. I hope you won’t be shocked when you see it. Of course, I’ll try to make it explode as far as possible, very far, so that you can’t see it. ”
Ning yuanxian said, ” I wish I could see it, but the children are all here. It’s better if I can’t see them. Okay, I’m leaving. Go back to your work.
Ning yuanxian waved his hand, and then a group of thousands of people left raging tide city and headed north to Paradise Manor.
“Husband, let’s go.” Princess Ning Yan touched her bulging belly. She wanted to stay, but the last time she was pregnant, it was more difficult to protect the baby. This time, although the pregnancy was better, she couldn’t be careless, so she had to move to the manor. The environment there was very good for the baby. There were explosion experiments in raging tide city from time to time, and loud sounds were heard every day. Ning Yan didn’t care about it, but she was afraid that the baby in her belly couldn’t take it.
........................
The sky-Sea Pavilion was located at the southern end of Tiannan province. It was a beautiful building complex on the sea.
Part of it was on the land while the other part was on the sea. It was full of dreams and didn’t look like a Supreme force at all, but more like a University.
It was hard to imagine that Shen lang had come here not long after he married into the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu and even became its distinguished guest. Back then, the sky-Sea Pavilion was so friendly. Shen lang even felt like he was on a pilgrimage as he felt that this was the palace of knowledge.
This feeling was like a high school student who had a beautiful and gentle female form teacher. She was like the lover of his dreams, but also a role model for others, only to find out in the end that she was the big boss who would destroy the world.
How many troops did Shen lang send to attack the sky-Sea Pavilion? The land force had 3000 people, but they had 50 large-caliber cannons, all of which were 155mm howitzers.
There were 15 ships in the fleet, with a total of 4000 people. All of them were rimmed howitzers, with a total of about 200 of them. The two armies covered each other as they headed south and approached the sky-Sea Pavilion.
....................................
The beautiful scholar Zhang Yuyin had returned to her carefree and uninhibited appearance. Her hair was disheveled, and she didn’t even put on any makeup. She would frequently curse and shout at others. If one wasn’t careful in her class, they would be scolded to the point of doubting their life.
At this moment, she was still tidying up the library. As long as someone had a book that was not placed in the right place, she would start scolding them until their faces turned ashen.
As she was tidying up a bookshelf, she realized that there were two empty spots. She immediately roared, ” “Where did the two books go? Where did he go? Who borrowed it and didn’t return it? How many years had it been? Did you tear the book because you don’t have any paper when you shit?”
Immediately, all the scholars in her field of vision lowered their heads, not daring to talk back or look at each other.
“You’re not going to tell me?” Zhang Yuyin rolled up her sleeves and said, ” if no one admits it, everyone in my field of vision will clean the toilets for a month. Why are you running away, second Zhang?! Do you think you can leave my sight just because you ran away?”
The white-haired scholar said, ” “Scholar Yu Yin, I’m sorry, I’m really in a hurry. I’m not running away.”
“Urgent? Very well, then you stand still and confess, who borrowed these two books and didn’t return them? Are you going to pee in your pants if you don’t tell me? I was even forced to tie you up with a rope and blow up your bladder.” Zhang Yuyin said coldly.
“Uh, scholar Zhang Yuyin, those two books were lent out through you,” the scholar replied weakly. One of them was borrowed by Shen lang, and the other was borrowed by Zhu Ning. They haven’t returned it yet?”
“Really?” Zhang Yuyin was puzzled.
All the scholars nodded their heads vigorously, indicating that it was absolutely true.
“Scholar Zhang Yuyin, may I ask if I can go to my kidney now?” the scholar asked.
“What do you mean?” Zhang Yuyin roared. Everyone knows that I lent this book out, so why didn’t they remind me? are you joking? What do you want to do?”
Everyone helplessly lowered their heads and let Zhang Yuyin roar.
The second scholar Zhang trembled and said, ” scholar Zhang Yuyin, y-you should let me off. I’m already old, and I really can’t hold it in anymore. I’m already 70 years old, you can’t possibly watch me sweep the floor like a gentleman, right? ”
“Since your surname is also Zhang, you can go.” Zhang Yuyin shot him a glance.
The second scholar Zhang Ran to the toilet as if he had been pardoned. A few minutes later, he came out feeling very comfortable. He sighed, ” it’s really urgent to enter the door, but it’s easy to go out.
good poem, good poem Xuanji! all the scholars praised.
“Second scholar Zhang, you’ll take three minutes to enter the door, but what about the pengmen? How long will it take to end?” A scholar asked.
“I’m afraid it’s not even half a minute.” A scholar laughed.
Second scholar Zhang flicked his beard. nonsense. At least an hour. Don’t look down on me because I’m old. I’m definitely getting stronger with age.
They really looked like a group of affable people, right? They were like the professors in the ivory tower. They didn’t put on airs with each other and often made dirty jokes.
At this moment, a scholar slowly walked down and said, ” Shen Lang’s Army is here.
“Oh!” All the scholars raised their heads and looked at the screen. Then, they did what they were supposed to do. They read their books and worked their jobs. Even the scholars who were slacking did not stop.
Their ” Oh ” revealed their arrogance. Their eyes were filled with contempt, but when they heard that Shen Lang’s Army was coming, they looked as if they were hearing a flock of chickens, ducks, and geese.
....................................
When the heavy waves Army arrived, the scholars on the sky-Sea Pavilion’s Watchtower noticed them from dozens of miles away. They did what they were supposed to do. They didn’t ring the bell or shout that the enemy was attacking. It was as if nothing had happened.
The old man who was guarding the door was still dozing off, and the old man who was sweeping the floor was still sweeping. Everything seemed so light.
Shen Lang’s Land Army and naval fleet were in sync and were getting closer and closer to the sky-Sea Pavilion.
Thirty miles, twenty miles, ten miles, five miles, four miles!
Within this distance, the fleet stopped, and the ground troops also stopped.
The 50 cannons of the ground forces began to be installed and aimed. The dozens of warships on the sea also adjusted their direction and aimed at the sky-Sea Pavilion.
A distance of two thousand meters could be easily reached by the rifling howitzer. Moreover, this was a huge building complex, so there was no need to aim at all. All they needed to do was to bombard it.
aiming complete. Ready, fire!
boom boom boom boom boom boom “, the 50 cannons on the ground opened fire at the same time, and the 100 cannons on the sea opened fire.
In an instant, more than 100 grenades whizzed across the sky and flew toward sky-Sea Pavilion.
Everyone in the sky-Sea Pavilion was still doing what they were doing. They were dozing off and sweeping the floor. It was as if the Thunder-like cannon outside did not exist.
However, the cannonballs from Shen Lang’s Army only flew into the air.
whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. countless ancient arrows shot out from the sky-Sea Pavilion. In an instant, thousands of arrows were shot out, forming a net in the air and blocking Shen Lang’s cannonballs. Furthermore, these ancient arrows could explode. Although they were not powerful, they could detonate the fuse of the cannonballs.
boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! all the cannonballs exploded in the air when they were more than 1000 meters away from sky-Sea Pavilion. Sky-Sea Pavilion was safe and sound, as if a huge firework had been set off.
Awesome, there’s actually an interception in the air? Moreover, these thousands of ancient arrows were not shot by humans, but by some kind of ancient weapon equipment.
“Reload!”
With that order, all 50 cannons were switched to ammunition, 3 nightmare stone magnetic bombs and 47 black lead magnetic bombs.
“Fire the cannons!”
Following the order, the 50 cannons fired wildly once again.
Then, it was intercepted by the sky-Sea Pavilion in the air again and exploded more than 1000 meters away.
pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft. a blue light flashed, and everyone felt numb on their faces. This was the nightmare stone magnetic bomb. Previously, Shen lang had used this to paralyze the blood soul Army’s ancient energy control Center.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! The dozens of inkstone bullets exploded in the air, covering the entire sky with countless inkstones. He wondered if the sky-Sea Pavilion’s ancient energy control Center had been paralyzed.
“Reload!”
Next, the 150 cannons in Shen Lang’s Army were replaced with timed cannonballs. Even if they were intercepted in the air, they would not explode. Instead, they would continue flying until they landed before exploding.
“Fire the cannons!”
whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, Whoosh! one hundred and fifty time bombs were shot out wildly.
When they were in the air, countless ancient arrows flew out from the sky-Sea Pavilion to intercept them.
As expected, Shen Lang’s nightmare gravite was no longer able to paralyze the ancient energy control Center. Even if he added a few dozen gravite bullets, it would not work.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! The sky-Sea Pavilion’s ancient arrows exploded in the air again.
However, this time, Shen Lang’s cannonballs were no longer the impact fuse. Hence, they did not detonate. The cannonballs only shook for a while before they continued to fly toward the sky-Sea Pavilion.
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
More than 100 cannonballs came closer and closer to the sky-Sea Pavilion.
However, when they were 100 to 200 meters away from the buildings, a strange scene happened.
It was as if the cannonballs had hit an invisible net and were bounced off.
After a while, the cannonballs exploded in the air again. It was like a huge firework, but the sky-Sea Pavilion was still intact.
Your Highness, everything is exactly as Emperor Shen lang predicted. General kuining said.
