1509 Desperate Shenzong
In the dimly lit house, one can still vaguely recognize the luxurious and extravagant decoration here.
Behind a screen carved from a single piece of giant wood, the table is covered with exquisite trays. Each tray was covered with red silk, and in the center of the red silk were exquisite jade slips.
These jade slips are engraved with gorgeous patterns, and under the patterns are written exquisite characters in flying and phoenix fonts.
It was one name after another, a name that represented a dignified status.
Every elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect must leave behind his birth jade slips, and each birth jade slip represents a high-ranking elder whose life fire is flourishing and flourishing.
Now, the jade slips of the Ninth Elder and the Tenth Elder have been broken, lying on the red silk without luster, like ordinary stones.
The third and seventh elders, as well as the fifth and fourth elders had only red silk in their trays, but they were empty. This meant that they had fallen for a long time and hadn't chosen their successors yet.
Outside the door, someone could vaguely hear someone asking anxiously. The voice became more and more noisy and unruly.
"The enemy is attacking! Where are the people going down the mountain? Why didn't they send back any news?" An anxious voice asked.
The voice that answered him was even more confused, as if everything had become chaotic: "I don't know what's going on! Some brothers are digging trenches near the mountain gate, and I don't know what's going on."
Everything seemed to be in disarray, and no one knew what was going on. I only know that there was a meteor falling in the morning two days ago, and today the sect is already in chaos.
"Boom!" The sound of the explosion in the distance made people palpitate, and everyone involuntarily looked in the direction of the explosion.
There seemed to be a mass of darkness rising from the mountain gate under their feet, and many people couldn't help shrinking their necks.
In the distant years, even the old people can't remember when someone had the courage to act recklessly outside the sect of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
In the panic-stricken Heavenly Sword Sect, people hurried past in the corridor from time to time, and before they knew it, the calmness of the past was no longer in the Sect.
"Have you heard that those monsters have entered the sect, and are they going to fight our people in the sect?" A disciple whispered to his fellow sect beside him.
They wore gray robes, which was a difference in identity—they were just newcomers who had been absorbed, not real swordsmen yet.
It was precisely because they were not considered swordsmen that they were not conscripted to join the battle at the mountain gate. In the current Shenzong, the most remaining disciples were the new disciples from the outer sect.
The sixth elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect stood on the high ground to the left of the Zongmen's mountain gate, looking at the position that was being submerged by the explosion in the distance, with a serious expression on his face.
The current situation is already very bad. Even he has a premonition that something is not going well.
There were originally millions of troops deployed in the sect, and the original function of these troops was to counter the possible attack of the Alan Hill Empire.
However, within two days, more than two-thirds of the army of millions of swordsmen was consumed by the opponent. This is no longer a war, this is simply a natural disaster!
Originally, the Heavenly Sword Sect was fighting around the opponent's monster that fell from the sky. When they hit it, the opponent broke through the encirclement, and when they fought again, the encirclement became a monster surrounding the Heavenly Sword Sect.
At the beginning, the Heavenly Sword Divine Sect was thinking about encircling and suppressing these invading monsters. Since yesterday, the encircling and suppressing has become a strong position, and finally turned into a corner.
Of the huge Heavenly Sword Sect, now only the Xianshan Mountain directly controlled by the sect is left, and it has lost contact with the surrounding cities and villages.
"Have you heard... These monsters eat people, eat everything! They eat houses, flying swords, shoes, clothes..." A female swordsman told her what she had heard with a pale face. own companion.
The companion's face was also ugly,
He lowered his voice and said, "I know, I also heard that these monsters give birth to each other, and the reproduction speed is very fast. The more they fight, the more they fight, and they can't fight at all..."
While the two of them were gossiping, another line of swordsmen passing by with long swords in their hands. These swordsmen came from other blessed lands for reinforcements, and their cultivation bases were obviously ordinary.
Even the Heavenly Sword Sect with a large population, which controls dozens of worlds, after experiencing the war with the Alan Hill Empire and the current consumption of the war, the continuous losses have begun to significantly reduce the quality of soldiers up.
They can no longer guarantee that the swordsmen they support can still guarantee a high level of cultivation. In order to ensure the required number of people, Shenzong had to start recruiting low-level swordsmen with significantly lower cultivation levels from other worlds to make up for the loss of the sect.
"Quick! Hurry up!" A swordsman headed by a long sword stood beside the team, waving his hands non-stop, motioning for the swordsmen behind to follow.
This long team ran across the corridor, passed through the pavilions with carved beams and painted buildings, passed through the courtyard full of rockery, went down the stone steps, and finally disappeared in the smoky distance.
Below the mountain gate, in a trench that had just been dug, the new swordsmen of the Heavenly Sword Sect were bending over to pass through the dense artillery fire.
A few disciples of Shenzong were carrying crude AK-47 assault rifles, and more swordsmen were still dressed in their original clothes.
On the reverse slope not far away, black sweepers had already gathered. They bullied the Heavenly Sword Divine Sect without long-range support firepower, so they dared to gather very close to the Heavenly Sword Divine Sect's position.
The two sweepers who were close to the opponent's position nodded their heads to each other, and the sweepers who were closest to the enemy raised their arms that could emit black energy and aimed at the distant target.
Using their superiority in firepower, they began to suppress the position of the Heavenly Sword Divine Sect. Following the orders one after another, countless black energy shells landed near the layers of trenches.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!" A series of explosions engulfed the trenches, and then dozens of sweepers rushed out of the backslope and rushed towards the gaps in the positions that had been damaged by the bombing.
On the still smoking ground, a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect picked up an assault rifle, pulled the trigger and fired a barrage of bullets.
A few sweepers who charged at the front fell on the road, and more sweepers jumped over the corpses of their companions and approached the trench of Tianjian Shenzong.
More than a dozen flying swords whizzed through the air, piercing through the sweepers trying to approach the trench in an instant. Although their attacks are powerful, the defense of these sweepers is not very strong.
Compared with the infantry of the Alan Hill Empire, which has a magic defense barrier and exoskeleton armor, these sweepers can be killed with a simple attack.
What really makes these sweepers difficult to deal with is their terrifying reproduction speed, and the terrifying numbers that make people desperate!
When Heavenly Sword Divine Sect kills ten sweepers, the opponent may already have hundreds of sweepers who can join the battle!
Such a frightening speed of military expansion is simply not comparable to that of the Heavenly Sword Sect. Therefore, Tianjian Shenzong changed from actively attacking to being passively beaten now.
"There's a gap there again! I can't stand it anymore!" A senior swordsman of the Heavenly Sword Sect looked at the defense line that was about to collapse not far away, and complained loudly.
Once the opponent has made a breakthrough, they will invest a large amount of troops to immediately expand the results of the battle. Those sweepers will advance along the trenches, and soon the line of defense of the Heavenly Sword Sect will be completely wiped out.
This kind of battle has been carried out countless times, and every time the opponent does this, the Heavenly Sword Divine Sect has no good way to stop it.
At this time, many swordsmen who participated in the previous battles against the Alan Hill Empire would recall those terrible opponents of the Alan Hill Empire.
If the enemies of the Alan Hill Empire encounter such a situation, whether it is intensive rifle fire, or booby traps and grenades, they can delay the opponent's actions.
The accompanying increased firepower, bazookas and rifle grenades can also come at a heavy price for the enemy attacking the trenches.
Or, the soldiers of the Alan Hill Empire would not let their opponents easily approach their defense line at all, and minefields and long-range firepower could suppress their opponents.
It is more likely that the attacking party may be the side of the Alan Hill Empire - the tanks cooperate with the infantry, and under the cover of air support, they can even easily tear through the opponent's line of defense.
In short, if the soldiers of the Irish Empire are faced with such a situation, there are many ways to solve the problem. It is a pity that the swordsmen of the Heavenly Sword Sect do not have these means and methods.
They had no hand grenades, no rifle grenades, no rocket launchers, and no more powerful heavy machine gun support.
Anyway, they have nothing, so they can only use their own flesh and blood to fight the enemy until the last moment.
"Whoosh!" A few stubborn swordsmen sacrificed their flying swords in the trench, and once again chopped down the sweepers who rushed up to the ground.
Then, where they were, a plume of black smoke rose. After the explosion, the sweepers occupied that position. As for what happened to these swordsmen, no one cared.
The battle was still going on, and the defensive positions of the Heavenly Sword Divine Sect outside the sect changed hands one after another, and the battle situation was already very passive.
The few Cambridges outside the Zongmen have long since fallen, and the worlds connected by those Cambridges have now completely fallen.
Like a disaster, the originally prosperous world seemed to be ransacked by a flood, leaving nothing.
All traces of human activity are obliterated, as if no civilization had ever appeared on these worlds.
People were devoured in despair, and then the almost endless army of sweepers returned from these blessed places to the planet where the Heavenly Sword God Sect's sect was located, and devoted themselves to the battle to strangle the Heavenly Sword God Sect.
Farther away, the restored Cave Heaven and Paradise connected to the Cambridge here has begun to dissipate. It is because the guards have used their own technology to restore the distorted and broken space.
Every time a soaring beam of light disappears, it means that a blessed place has been cleaned up. Life there has been terminated, and all civilization there has disappeared!
The life that evolved only after millions of years, and the intelligence that was born after collecting the essence of the heaven and the earth, all returned to silence under the devastation of the army of guardians. And it only takes less than two days for the Sweeper to sweep a world.
Maybe the sweeping won't be very thorough, but the sweepers who stay there will keep multiplying and searching until everything is destroyed!
Then these sweepers will eat each other, devour each other, and finally dissipate together, leaving nothing behind.
They are the "terminators of civilization" in the true sense. The purpose of the existence of these guards is to destroy other civilizations and destroy all evidence of their existence!
Not all worlds have enough troops to resist these terrifying existences. The Heavenly Paradise controlled by the Heavenly Sword Sect, which has mobilized most of its strength, has no way to organize effective resistance when facing such a ferocious enemy.
Those worlds where basically all the sword repairers have been transferred away have to face the army of the sweepers before they can make any preparations.
No matter how many ancient cold weapon armies armed with shields and long spears, they were just giving rations to the sweepers.
What makes people desperate is that the more organized resistance is, the easier it is for the sweepers to gather and wipe it out.
The rest of the people can only hide in Tibet, terrified all day long, waiting for their own doomsday in despair and fear.
"Take that position back! Counterattack! If it is lost there, only the sect master's position will be left!" In desperation, the leading swordsman pointed to the distant position, and ordered the reinforcements behind him .
"Obey!" The young swordsmen who had just been recruited here clasped their fists together, and under the leadership of several masters, rushed to the place where the artillery was raging in the distance.
In the distant sky, a huge mountain peak floating in mid-air lit up a lightsaber with condensed spiritual energy. The lightsaber roared and flew out, hitting the farther horizon.
A soaring mushroom cloud rose from the ground, and even the surrounding clouds were blown into a standard ring shape.
Accompanied by the shaking of the ground, the sword peak that inspired the mountain protection circle collapsed in the explosion, surrounded by dozens of Prowler fighter planes flying around it.
Another sword peak fell, and the hope in the hearts of countless swordsmen on the ground was reduced again. Every time Jianfeng bombards a powerful aura flying sword, these swordsmen will feel the power of the sect, but after the explosion, they have to face the reality, watching these powerful fairy mountains collapse and collapse, and finally fall and be swallowed clean.
Intensive gunshots rang out again, it was another futile counterattack by the Heavenly Sword Divine Sect. The newly added swordsmen hope to regain some positions, so that the fellow disciples behind them can have time to strengthen more positions...
