Chapter 262 Petrified Monster (Part 1)
At the same time, the "wind wall" is outside.
The brief twilight moment when the golden light and the red sun intertwined, ended abruptly at the moment when the wind wall appeared.
Instead, the high concentration of "discarded old chains" and the "energy particles" that spread wildly inside and out of the "wind wall" made all the people present temporarily stagnate for several seconds. After waking up, everyone felt a sense of hazy feeling that was almost in a dream.
About three or five minutes later, people and psychics familiar with the magic power, such as Sophia, Ross, Stanislav, and others who were familiar with the power of the magic came first and began to wake up the nearby Federation [Warriors].
It seemed that he had expected this unexpected situation. After being woken up, Yaroslav did not seem very panic. Instead, he began to pick up the walkie-talkie again at the scheduled rhythm. After the noise inside was slightly relieved, he continued to command:
"Continue bombardment, don't stop. The gap in the 'wind wall' is not very obvious now, and it is easy to re-bridge under the influence of surrounding energy."
"Doududududu...Doudududu..." After a very puzzling murmur mixed with a slight smile, the voice of the Federal [Soldier] who was in charge of commanding the artillery came from the intercom:
"As for orders, Commander-in-Chief. But..."
"But what? But what?" Yaroslav asked loudly, an ominous premonition arose in his heart.
"Red... appeared, red appeared! Commander-in-chief, and... monster, a... monster full of snake hair... monster..."
Although the walkie-talkie is still working, the sound of the Federal [Soldier] inside has abruptly stopped. Even the sound of the surrounding shells and guns has disappeared simultaneously. Everything seems to have disappeared in an instant, like a video tape with the pause button pressed.
After four or five seconds, just when Yaroslav thought the walkie-talkie was damaged, a faint noise of current could barely be emitted inside.
"Commander-in-chief, the 'Red Dang' is getting worse and worse. Do we still have to go out?" Stanislav rushed into the temporary command center from outside and said in an extremely anxious tone.
Sophia keenly discovered that the special mask that Stanislav wore had already been rendered dark red by the surrounding environment, and was dripping down from it with blood gushing out from Stanislav's face or external liquid stained with the power of mutant.
Moreover, his combat uniform was covered with a layer of red "dye" emitting a faint glow. Even the "Cyber Auxiliary Power Device" made of precious special metal was covered with a layer of rust, and some parts had already cracked, curled, damaged and disintegrated.
"Captain Stanislav, have you... experienced the battle just now?" Sofia asked the key question first.
But Stanislav didn't seem to notice his appearance, but instead took off his special mask and replied in an extremely relaxed tone:
"No, the series of shelling just now went very smoothly, and the 'Red Dang' also appeared, and the gap in the 'Wind Wall'... We have been attacking, and it is estimated that in half an hour, it will completely heal. Oh, Secretary Sofia, you are talking about the previous battle, it is indeed very thrilling, but it has ended long ago."
Sofia did feel a strange force that could not be expressed in words lingered around Stanislav's body, but due to Yaroslav's gesture, she had to swallow the words back to her stomach for a while.
"Take us out and go to the artillery resettlement site, where there seems to be problems. The current situation may have some unexpected situations." Yaroslav ordered.
Soon, Yaroslav and Sofia rode the "Cruzd" mechanical chariot again and followed the battle convoy in front of them, passing by the gamma point that was already in chaos, covered with scattered limbs, red liquid and gray-black powder, and headed towards the "artillery placement point" closest to the "wind wall".
On the way, Sophia looked up at the sky, suppressing the surging of the magic power in her body. She found that the whole world had completely dimmed, and the deep red clouds covered the pure red sun that seemed to emit endless glory.
The sound of the rumbling artillery fire still did not stop, mixed with the sound of bullets whistling and the sorrow of the Federal [Soldier] before his death.
At the same time, the sky was filled with the shrill cry of birds and the fierce roar of wild animals. Thunder and lightning interspersed from time to time, using the sound of thunder to make the most powerful accompaniment for this "rectangle" in the war.
As the degree of "red swaying" deepened, the sky began to flash red light frequently. If it weren't for the experienced [warrior] who had been through the battlefield for a long time, he would probably have gone crazy on the spot or ended his life with bullets.
The closer the convoy is to the "wind wall", the deeper the color of the "wind wall". When the convoy finally parked at the edge of the "artillery placement point", the "wind wall" had already turned into a blue, mixed with ghostly purple.
From a distance, Sophia observed that the huge gap caused by artillery bombardment was like a huge eye to observe the entire world. It stretched across the center of the entire battlefield to a three-dimensional extent. In addition to the rich scent of sulfur and smoke, there was also a strong smell of rotten smell in the air.
After confirming the location temporarily safe, Yaroslav and his group got off on a high slope hundreds of meters away from the wind wall and walked into the front camp built with a temporary tent. Soon, the [Soldiers] affiliated to the Federal Council sent Yaroslavs a pair of "special strange goggles" produced by the "Cruzed Special Materials Factory". After wearing it, the few people hiked forward for about two hundred meters and finally saw the "Federal [Soldiers]" in a dangerous situation.
These federal [warriors] have been turned into stones by extraordinary forces, and the cannons used to bombard the "Wind Wall", the group closest to the battlefield, have long since changed from steel to "equal proportional cannon models" shaped by salt.
Although the Federation [Warrior] who turned into a stone still maintains its original appearance and final movement, its body no longer belongs to humans. The human body is not a rock-like existence. Even if it is twisted, it should retain the most basic trace of flesh and blood.
Even the "unintentional person" who is an enemy and the lost person who still retains some consciousness will always have some parts of humanity.
Humans exist on the part that belongs to humans, and monsters are manic due to the part that belongs to weird parts. But when a ship of Theseus completely loses its original part, its existence will disappear and become a brand new and unknown substance.
These human bodies that turned into rocks still retained their movements and postures before petrification. Yaroslav speculated that they were suddenly petrified without preparation.
Because, there was no fear or panic on the faces of these [warriors], but they still maintained a roaring posture with their mouths wide open, as if they were conveying emergency orders.
Their movements are not only running but also operating weapons, and without exception, their bodies are facing the gap in the "wind wall", which seems to cause their petrified energy to be transmitted from there.
Soon, countless high-pitched, exciting, bright and harsh sounds came from the direction of the "Wind Wall", which immediately made the terrible memories of the long-standing past surge in the minds of the people present. After a brief trance, Yaroslav, under the protection of Stanislav and his team members, briefly entered the "war command post" built with special steel plates in advance.
But as soon as he entered the door, Yaroslav discovered the Federation [Soldier] who had just spoken with him. No surprise, he turned into a stone, but he still maintained the posture of holding the phone in his hand to report to their commander-in-chief. However, his body was indeed facing away from the "Wind Wall". It seemed that his subordinates took a casual glance back when they reported to him, and they were petrified on the spot.
Seeing this, Yaroslav looked at the "Wind Wall" angrily, then walked forward and picked up the black microphone that had already been vertical to the ground and put it back in place.
Then, he shook off the mixture of snow and dust on his shoulders, walked to the middle of the room with small red particles fluttering, sat down straight on a blood-stained chair, took a deep breath, and asked:
"Where did the energy that caused the petrification of the Federation [Warrior] come from? Have you investigated it? Are there any surviving people on the scene? Bring one in, I want to ask."
"It is said that a rare monster appeared after the 'Wind Wall'. After a brief period of artillery attacks, it was hidden in the wind again. As for the surviving person, there was one who was caught by me when he was about to escape at the edge of the γ point and was now outside the door." Stanislav replied.
"Bring in." Yaroslav expressed his anger with the shortest command.
"Bring in!" Stanislav ordered.
Soon, two tall players of the "Northern Bear Stormtrooper" were lifted in with the help of Oaks and threw them heavily in front of Yaroslav.
Looking down, although he was wearing a goggles, the embarrassing appearance of the Federation [Soldier] was still visible to Yaroslav.
Even if this federal [warrior] cannot be called "clothing" or "clothing" or "tight", he is at least in rags. There are many cracks similar to those slashed by swords in the middle of the white combat uniform. As long as you pull it a few more times, the uniform can be made into cloth strips and mops.
His hair stood upright, as if struck by lightning, and fell to Yaroslav. His eyes were covered with bloodshot and lifeless, but he stared blankly at the light bulb above his head that was shining with dim light in the red world.
