Chapter 1456 - 1456 The "soap bubble" in the no man's land
1456 The “soap bubble” in the no man’s land
Yu Heng placed great importance on this plane invasion.
The reason why he opened his mouth to make a request was not because he was afraid that Tang Zhen would take the treasure for himself. If he did that, he would be looking down on Tang Zhen too much. If Tang Zhen had really done such a thing, he would not have ended up in this state today.
He needed the experience of the dimensional war and the guidance of Holy Dragon City, which was very important for the future of Morning Star City.
If Tang Zhen was willing to make the exchange, he could even give up on the harvest this time. He only needed Tang Zhen to share the coordinates of the high-energy world after the end of this dimensional war.
Although Yu Heng had not personally experienced how cruel the world of loucheng was and how dangerous a plane invasion was, his ancestor’s notes had clearly told his juniors that the slightest carelessness would cause the entire loucheng to be consigned to eternal damnation!
His previous experience had given Yu Heng a lot of insight. Although the natives of this technologically advanced world could not cultivate, they had powerful weapons. If they were to fight with real weapons, Morning Star City would not have much of an advantage.
Thus, Yu Heng had always been apprehensive. He wanted to fulfill his ancestor’s last wish and let Morning Star City go further, but he did not want to become a sinner of the Morning Star clan and let the city be destroyed in his own hands.
Hence, he thought of an idea, which was to rely on Holy Dragon city’s protection and learn from their experience, so that they could help Morning Star City tide over the initial difficulties!
From an outsider’s point of view, Tang Zhen should be the one taking advantage of this matter. He absolutely had no reason to refuse.
However, that was not the case. In the world of towers, a tower was equivalent to a closed country. Cooperating in battle was equivalent to telling others about one’s trump card.
How could a nation’s weapon be easily shown to others? this was definitely a great taboo for the militarists!
Even though Morning Star City was now under the control of Holy Dragon City, it did not mean that their life and death were in the hands of Holy Dragon City. In other war zones, it was not uncommon for towers to fight each other.
Even though Tang Zhen would try his best to prevent such a thing from happening, it was impossible for him to completely stop it. Hence, he would naturally try his best to ensure that his secret would not be known by others under such circumstances.
Hence, Yu Heng’s request was not to let Tang Zhen take advantage of him but was rather excessive and unreasonable. The possibility of him being rejected was extremely high.
Being rejected was a matter of course. It would be a pleasant surprise if he agreed. Yu Heng was waiting for that sliver of possibility.
Therefore, after making this request, Yu Heng’s heart was still hanging in the air. At the same time, he was constantly thinking about what conditions he could use to persuade Tang Zhen.
Tang Zhen held the teacup in his hand and swept a glance at Yu Tao and the other man who were currently studying the runic magic circle. These two fellows who seemed to be engrossed in their studies were actually quietly perking up their ears and waiting for Tang Zhen’s reply.
As the residents of Morning Star City, how could they not be concerned about such a life-and-death matter?
Lightly sighing, Tang Zhen placed the teacup in his hand down and said to Yu Heng,”Normally, I would never agree to such a thing. I believe you should know the reason.”
Yu Heng nodded. It was precisely because he knew that he was so anxious.
“But the situation is different now. First, I’m in a hurry to build a new war zone, and the most basic requirement is to have ten national-level buildings. Your morning Star City has the foundation, and if it’s handled well, it’s likely to become one of the ten national-level buildings.
Helping you is the same as helping myself.”
Yu Heng was overjoyed when he heard this, and his eyes flashed with anticipation.
Tang Zhen continued, ” secondly, there’s nothing that my Holy Dragon City can hide. There are some trump cards that I don’t want you to know. It’s impossible for you to have the opportunity to come into contact with them. At most, you’ll only learn some tests of invading another world.
Even if you don’t ask me, I will teach you. I don’t want to delay the progress of the war zone!”
At this point, Tang Zhen faintly smiled and looked at Yu Heng,”So I can agree to your request, but only this once!”
Yu Heng’s face was solemn as he slowly stood up and bowed to Tang Zhen. Yu kun and Yu Heng also stood up and expressed their gratitude and respect to Tang Zhen.
On a real battlefield, especially during a dimensional invasion, the death rate of new recruits would always exceed one’s imagination. A single word from Tang Zhen would allow many residents of Morning Star City to keep their lives.
After a short rest, the four of them continued to work.
The general framework of the teleportation array had been completed. Now, only Yu Heng and the other two needed to complete it. Tang Zhen needed to set up the defense outside.
Compared to the dimensional teleportation portal, the defense on the ground was not particularly important, but it was also an indispensable part. At least before connecting to the world of towers, the Aboriginals must not be allowed to ruin this process.
As for how to do it, Tang Zhen already had a plan in his heart.
Tang Zhen had once learned some small tricks from those Wizards. For example, how to create low-level monsters in batches. Although there were similar cultivator skills in the world of loucheng, they were far from being as convenient as the Wizards.
In the following period of time, Tang Zhen wandered around the forks in the passage and casually threw down medicinal pills that emitted a strange smell.
Soon, ordinary creatures would smell the pills and swallow them. Then, these ordinary creatures would turn into terrifying monsters and wander around the area where the pills were found.
This was a common defensive method used by Wizards to protect the land they had surrounded and prevent people from approaching.
This method could also be used in the no man’s land outside, but the premise was that they needed some cover to prevent these monsters from being exposed in broad daylight and becoming targets for the natives.
Tang Zhen slowly walked toward the ground after the defense of the tunnel was completed.
Compared to the deep and winding underground tunnel, the defense work on the surface was undoubtedly more troublesome. One had to know that there was no end to this place, and there was almost nothing to be seen except for stones.
Fortunately, although the no man’s land was known as a forbidden zone for life, there were still many creatures that could be used at any time.
First, he scattered the medicinal pills in an area with a radius of tens of kilometers. Then, Tang Zhen returned to the valley where the entrance of the underground city was located. After muttering to himself for a moment, he constructed a runic magic circle on the ground.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Tang Zhen wanted to do an experiment. If it was successful, the Holy Dragon City would have an additional defense method when invading the other world.
He took out a portion of the world’s origin from his storage equipment and placed it in the core of the array. Then, a white light shot up into the sky!
As the runic magic circle was activated, the original energy from another world began to change. Like a soap bubble blown by an air pump, it glowed with a seven-colored light and slowly spread to the surroundings.
The bubble expanded quickly, and it didn’t take long for it to cover the entire Valley. It then continued to expand, taking in more and more land.
It did not take long for all kinds of plants to burrow out of the ground in the area enveloped by the colorful bubbles. They had a completely different appearance from their ancestors, larger, more colorful, and more aggressive.
It was like a fast-forwarded video. The barren desert quickly turned into a dense jungle. From time to time, strange creatures would suddenly appear and then quickly disappear into the flowers and leaves.
Wisps of mist rose up, condensed from the overflowing energy of the world’s origin. It faintly flickered with a rainbow light and was trapped in a huge soap bubble, blocking the vision from the sky.
As time slowly passed, the surface area of the soap bubble became larger and larger. It covered a vast area of land and could be easily seen from far away!
