Chapter 170 The Iron Wall of Bliss
Peony and her maid group squeezed over from the side and placed eight trays in front of the Buddhist team.
There are three types of magic weapons in the tray:
A Bagua plate inlaid with crystal cores, a rectangular card with black talismans carved on it, and several special psychic bombs wrapped with crystal cores.
In addition, there are twenty pure crystal nuclei each.
These pure crystal nuclei were also purified by the Buddhist temple team.
In addition to attending classes on weekdays, the eight of them had to work overtime to make pure crystal cores and distribute them to those users of the crystal core sword.
Wang Jixuan briefly introduced: "This rectangular sign is made from the spine of a king-level blade beast. The aura of a king-level blade beast is locked on it, and your code names are also engraved on it. It will not be used in this fight."
Zheng Shiduo raised his hand and said: "I know! If you die in battle and the body is broken into pieces or burned to charcoal, you can use this to identify yourself!"
An old aunt-level psyker gritted her teeth and cursed: "If you can speak, just speak more! It's true! A dog can't spit out ivory from its mouth!"
Zheng Shiduo sneered.
He never argued with women.
Mainly just debate.
"Peony, come and introduce to everyone the goal this time."
Wang Jixuan snapped his fingers and walked to a corner to sit down.
The two mechanical maids took two steps forward, raised their hands, and their four delicate hands lit up a simple holographic terrain map.
Peony bowed slightly forward and began to introduce in a brisk tone: "Everyone, please see, our target location is located in the southwest of the D3 comprehensive theater, not too far from the border of our D5 theater.
"The commander-in-chief of the D3 integrated theater has been informed of our actions. He will remain silent in the follow-up and expects us to solve this problem that is weighing on their heads.
"Please don't be too optimistic, the D3 military cannot give us any operational support.
"Many important facilities in D3 have been fully controlled by the Psychic Capital. Solving an S-class psyker can only relieve the pressure on the D3 Theater Command, but cannot directly change the status quo.
"Our target this time is hiding near the important water conservancy hub in the northwest of D3. There is a huge fortress here."
The holographic projection illuminated a magnificent dam, with natural mountains on both sides of the dam, surrounding a huge reservoir.
On a cliff on the left side of the reservoir, a six-story dome building stands on the cliff.
It can be clearly seen on the holographic terrain map that there are several giant destruction cannons placed under the top dome, and dense fire outlets are set up on each floor of the building.
This is a large bunker, guarding the dangerous terrain and protecting the safety of the dam.
Peony pointed her finger, and the internal structure of the cliff was displayed in front of everyone.
There is a fortress embedded in it.
【Iron Wall Fort】.
Unlike the vertical design of normal forts, this fort extends in a horizontal direction.
The cliff and the mountain behind it were hollowed out. Behind the cliff is the [Outer City] of the Iron Wall Fort.
The outer city is a purely military area, equivalent to the upper city of Fortress No. 76.
Extending inward from the outer city are the [Middle Industrial Zone], which supports hundreds of thousands of people, and the [Inner City] behind the industrial zone, which is marked in gray and cannot accurately calculate the population.
The entire Iron Wall Fortress is moving gently downward, and the inner city is already below sea level.
"This fortress is called Iron Wall Fort."
Introduction to Peony Kuaisheng:
"Twenty-three years ago, the Iron Wall Fort was secretly controlled by psykers. From military to political, it became a vassal of the Psychic City. S-class psykers began to station here on a rotational basis, replacing one every three to four years. An S-class psyker.
"The news circulating in the Psychic City is that this place is called Paradise, and the high-level psykers in the Psychic City are trying to garrison here.
"More importantly, there is a branch of the Thirteenth Institute hidden inside, which can steadily produce a large number of low-level psykers every year.
"Our priority goal this time is to deal with the S-class psykers here. The secondary goal is to blow up the Thirteenth Branch and collect as much evidence of their crimes as possible.
"S-class psykers are usually stationed in the outer city, which is this area."
A flashing red square appeared on the map. It was not far from the cliff facade and was also the area with the strongest firepower.
Peony turned the map around and pointed at the entrances to ventilation pipes scattered throughout the mountain forest.
She continued: "We want to enter the Iron Wall Fort from the connecting area between the inner city and the middle industrial zone.
"According to the intelligence we collected in advance, the interior of the Iron Wall Fort has been systematically corrupted and has an extremely bad atmosphere. Please be mentally prepared in advance and not let your personal emotions affect the progress of the mission.
“Later we need to split into four groups.
“Make sure that each group has at least three A-level combat units and at least one loyal wingman to ensure the electronic warfare advantage and be able to pass each level.
"The four teams must rush to the choke point of the Iron Wall Fort within the scheduled time, and then launch a general attack on the area where the S-class target is located.
"In view of Captain Zheng's own strength, he will be equipped with the precious X armor, and everyone must be equipped with the new 'Stalker Type 4' armor.
"This is good equipment that has not yet been assembled for the army."
The members of the Buddhist temple team smiled.
Zheng Shiduo covered his face with his hands, rubbed them vigorously, and said that he, a little C, could mix among a group of A and B-level psychics. It was really...
The chicken stands out from the crowd!
Wu Man raised his hand and asked: "Where will our plane land?"
"There is a canyon dozens of kilometers away from this area," Mudan explained softly, "Everyone, be prepared to go quickly."
"Where is the information about S-class psykers?" Ji Xiao asked.
"This is what I'm going to introduce next, please take a look."
Several rays of light shone from Peony's shoulder, and a holographic projector was spread out above the holographic map.
A middle-aged woman wearing a fishtail skirt appeared inside, with three-dimensional features, pretty appearance, and hot figure. She held her waist with her hands and raised her head proudly.
——This should be a photo taken from a poster.
Peony continued to introduce: "Fairly, titled 'Smoke', non-awakened S-level, she has shown three abilities, extremely powerful mental control, control of fire and water, and strengthening her body..."
"Let me add a few words."
Wang Jixuan said from the side: "Don't put too much pressure on everyone, this woman is not Huo Rong, she is just a low-profile version of Xing Dian, the last one in the S-class. It is known that the S-class ranks seventy-eight.
"According to the intelligence, her character is extremely narcissistic, and Lao Zheng can start from this aspect when making fun of her.
“The difficulty this time is actually the armed forces inside this horizontal fortress.
"This is different from before. We used to stay inside the fortress. The location is advantageous to us, and the military armament is also our advantage. Now this advantage has turned into a disadvantage.
“So, we must be careful when we infiltrate later, and retreat immediately once a group is exposed.
"Do you understand?"
"clear!"
"Well, Mudan continues to introduce the grouping plan. Everyone, please be smarter. If you encounter an S-class psyker in advance, you don't have to form a seven-star sword formation. If you can, fight if you can. If you can't hit and run."
"Don't worry, Teacher Wang, we promise to complete the task!"
Wang Jixuan:......
What he worries about is that these eight guys are not afraid of sacrifice and are stubborn.
The Taoist priest has no plans to start teaching classes in the near future.
"Come on," Wang Jixuan closed his eyes to rest. He was afraid that going too far would be too much, so he didn't dare to continue to encourage him.
An hour and a half later, the transport plane flew into the canyon at low altitude.
The response team that had been waiting on the ground for a long time immediately removed the holographic camouflage of the mountain forest on one side, revealing an area where leveling operations had been completed in advance.
The transport plane fell vertically and stopped steadily, and the holographic camouflage was turned on again.
A total of sixteen people from the Peak Maid Group and the Buddhist Temple Team were divided into four groups, A, B, C and D. The four groups were equipped with strong stealth armor and simultaneously entered optical stealth and electromagnetic shielding. The members of the response team hiding outside could only hear the tinkling of footsteps and vaguely see several transparent figures drawn by 'distorted light'.
Wang Jixuan stretched out in the cabin, walked to the small compartment behind the cab, yawned and pushed the door open.
Commander-in-chief Fu Jian, who was watching carefully with the holographic newspaper, raised his head and glanced at Wang Jixuan.
Wang Daozhang asked helplessly: "Why are you, a commander, following us on such a surprise mission?"
"Get you out if necessary."
Fu Jian turned over the pages of the newspaper and found that it was at the end, so he put down the newspaper with some boredom.
He stood up: "Aren't you going to change into X armor?"
"Huh?" Wang Jixuan pointed to his nose, "I want to go too? Aren't I here to give them marks?"
"You're here, let's go."
Fu Jian sighed:
"I will take you to see the evil that Thirteen has done so that you can firmly stand in the camp of normal humans."
Wang Jixuan shrugged: "What's so good about this? Isn't it just the ones in the lower city of Fortress 76?"
"I must remind you that Fortress No. 76 in the Medieval Basin is under my rule. The tragic fate of the people in the Lower City stems from the fortress mechanism and the depravity of human nature."
Fu Jian urged: "Hurry up and change your armor. Without showing you the systematic corruption of psychic energy, you won't be able to understand the evil of the Thirteen Institutes."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Wang Jixuan coughed twice weakly:
"I was seriously injured trying to kill Huorong. I don't dare to take action at will this time."
Fu Jian pretended to believe it.
…
Two hours later, around noon.
Wang Jixuan wore the slightly upgraded X-armor and arrived at the 'inner city' of Iron Wall Castle with Fu Jian.
They arrived at the vent that [Group D] had entered before. Fu Jian skillfully released the micro-robot and operated on the small screen that popped out of his arm. The monitoring system inside the vent failed for the second time.
The two of them walked in here as if they were shopping, and landed on the corner of the pipe without making any sound.
Wang Jixuan relies on controlling the use of breath, while Fu Jian relies on magnetic rings.
Occasionally, the communication between the four groups can be heard in the earphones. They have been in this place for more than half an hour. They are now reporting their positions to each other and are approaching the cliff edge area.
So far, so good.
D5 is also considered to be unique in the field of military technology.
Wang Ji's mysterious spiritual consciousness unfolded, and the smile on his lips quickly faded, and he couldn't help but frown.
Fu Jian, who originally wanted to show him around, followed him and walked deeper into the inner city.
The structure of the horizontal fortress is similar to that of a normal fortress, but the 'inner city' here is completely different from the lower city of Fortress No. 76.
It's like an ant hole here, with capillary passages connecting each 'wing room'. The living area and living area are divided into the wing rooms. All the private spaces for the family are tents.
In terms of environment, what is better here than the lower city of Fortress No. 76 is that it is not far from the surface and the optical transmission system can be used, so there is enough light.
Unlike Fortress No. 76, the drainage system is relatively insufficient. In order to avoid contaminating the water source of the reservoir, the drainage pipes here extend far away and are often blocked.
Wang Jixuan and Fu Jian turned on their optical stealth, stopped outside a wing, and looked inside.
More than a hundred people lived here.
Most adults lie or sit in clothes that nearly fit the body.
They were in a daze, with a dirty air bag at hand. After a while, they would put the air bag to their mouths, take a strong breath, and then their expressions would fall into intoxication.
There are also children over six years old here, and these children will stay next to their parents, looking at the air bags eagerly, waiting for their parents to fall asleep and pass out, then they will go over to grab the air bag, bring it to their noses and smell it gently.
Fu Jian whispered: "This was a hot topic more than ten years ago, a new anti-dark drug. Most war zones have banned this gas drug, but the fortress controlled by psychics has been preserved."
Wang Jixuan nodded and said nothing more.
He and Fu Jian continued to walk, looking along the capillary passage, and their spiritual consciousness continued to expand.
All areas are much the same.
Fu Jian asked: "Do you think they can still be called human beings?"
"I don't know how to evaluate this," Wang Jixuan whispered, "Their souls have been corrupted."
"This is their purpose," Fu Jian's voice was filled with emotion, "An uprising will not break out in such a fortress, and only psychics can feel at ease."
Reports from each group began to come from the communication channel.
Peony: "We have arrived at the scheduled location No. 1."
Wu Man: "We still have about three to five minutes, wait a moment."
Zheng Shiduo cursed: "This place is so disgusting. Remember to turn on the air purification function of the armor."
Ji Xiaoze said: "Don't worry, psychics are immune to this poison."
Wang Jixuan warned: "Don't act in a hurry and be patient."
Each group leader responded simultaneously.
Fu Jian patted Wang Jixuan on the shoulder: "Let's hurry up and go to the Thirteenth Branch. There may be that kind of wall here."
"Okay," Wang Jixuan agreed, his spiritual consciousness already covering half of the iron wall fortress.
He could see that most areas of the 'inner city' were similar to scenes, with people holding on to airbags and constantly immersing themselves in illusory dreams.
Industrial areas are much better.
The most important thing about every fortress is the industrial area, just like the middle city of Fortress No. 76, which is engaged in production, maintaining the operation of human society, and producing materials to fight the blade beasts.
But in industrial areas, the use of air bags is common. Most people are running after get off work and returning to their homes, or a few people gather together and use air bags before eating.
This is true for patrolling security teams, as well as ordinary law enforcement teams.
Many people put down all their dignity and knelt in front of those gangsters when they were "out of stock" and were humiliated wantonly.
The gangsters would kneel in front of a law enforcement team of low-level psykers and offer them all kinds of resources, including young men and women they controlled with air bags.
The political order of the entire fortress has failed.
The only area that can remain relatively clean is the military garrison in the outer city here.
The garrison troops directly blocked all access routes to the interior, only accepted external supplies, and were stationed in rotation with other fortresses.
The thirteen branches here have inexhaustible materials.
"This is a world controlled by psykers."
Fu Jian said calmly.
He turned to look at Wang Jixuan. He wanted to appreciate the young man's expression, which must have been filled with suppressed anger. Unfortunately, the X-armor's demon helmet blocked this expression.
Wang Jixuan suddenly said: "There is something good over there in the branch, let's go and take a look."
"Huh?" Fu Jian couldn't help but ask, "Don't you have any emotions?"
"There is no point in feeling sad, as long as we are done with eradicating evil."
Wang Jixuan quickened his pace and urged: "They are going to fight over there, and 80% of the gates will fall everywhere. Let's hurry up. It seems that it is really the original infusion wall... and some psychic mechas?"
Mecha? Uncle Fu suddenly became interested.
