The Legendary Mechanic

Twilight Star, the ruins of the ancient city in the southern territories.

The coalition of tribes assembled here, the 3,000 Blue Shield Knights of the Kingdom of Vine, the 5,000 savage warriors of the Howling Barbarians, the 1,000 alchemy bombers of the Dibs, the 500 beasts of the Son of Listening, as well as the Miscellaneous Army of the Southern City State and the Principality, totalling 15,000 people, stationed in the green grass wilderness outside the ruins of the ancient city, the flags of all colors with the cold southerly winds.

There are no clouds in the sky, the sky is dusk, it stains everything deep, the sky's sun is tiny and far from the planet.

Commander's tent, commanders of the various armies gathered here, fiercely negotiated, only one tall man with pale blue skin did not speak a word, he was the leader of the Blue Shield Knights Regiment Rex, the war hero of the kingdom of Vine, from a civilian to the commander of the Ace Army of the biggest kingdom of Twilight Star, and the story was preached by the entire Twilight Star people.

It was not until the crowd had spoken the same way that Rex spoke. The commanders of the other tribes present respected him very much and stopped arguing and listened to him.

“Rezal and his followers are hiding beneath the ruins at the moment, preparing a ceremony to pollute the source water, we have about six more menstrual periods (about two and a half hours), sleeping in the ruins of the high-end puppet giant statues he spent 20 years building, almost 800, he has arranged a complex blockade matrix, only to destroy all the puppets, the access to the ritual altar will be opened, which means we have to break through the blockade of the puppets in a short time, find their location and stop the ceremony, otherwise, the source water in most of the southern territories will lose its vitality and hundreds of thousands of people will be killed! ”

“The reconnaissance forces returned the message that each doll was more than seven meters tall, extremely hard, and blessed with prayer, that the Rare steel sword would collapse on it, with only one white mark... This information cost us six elite soldiers, and that the Order of Rezal still had a hundred [polluters] who could corrode our weapons, our bodies, and the elite warriors could not withstand corrosion. The situation was too difficult, and it was very difficult for 15,000 of us to rush in within a short period of time. Alas, Rezal had prepared 20 years in secret, if we could have discovered his plot 10 days earlier... Oh no, even three days earlier, we would not have been so passive, and now we could only assemble so many people urgently.” A commander-in-chief sighed.

“This is about the purity of the source water and the lives of hundreds of thousands of people, we can't fail," said Rex Sincerely. "The Guardian Mages contacted the ascendants of the upper realm. The ascendants hired the fighters of the upper realm, which will help us to fight...”

Speak up, Rex looks into the corner of the tent, and a man in a red tech uniform sits there, not in a painting style at all with these armored men, and he hears standing up and saying, "I'm Ringo, head of the Red Horn Mercenary Corps, and your people paid a fee, and we'll do everything we can to help you. ”

Rex asked, "Captain Ringer, are you sure? ”

Ling shook his head and smiled bitterly: “Don't tell me things are much worse here than they were when we took the assignment. We have limited capacity to deal with this level of task. The employer has been notified of the situation and the second batch of foreign aid is on its way. If it goes fast, they should be able to make it within two hours. ”

Rex's face was heavy and his eyebrows slightly wrinkled, "It's too urgent. Are the reinforcements reliable? ”

“Rest assured, the second batch of mercenaries are much stronger than we are, and as long as they get here in time, solving accidents here is just a matter of raising their hands, and their stronghold is in this galaxy, and if it weren't for this reason, small incidents like this, they wouldn't normally despise doing it. ”

“I hope so...”

Rex was worried and Ringo seemed confident.

The Twilight Star is located in the jurisdiction of the Galaxy of Gatora, a planet far from the stars, and even during the day it is daylight twilight, the name comes from it, there is no moon at night, it is pitch black, there is no quarter difference here, it is cold every day, in principle this should be a frozen planet that cannot give birth to conventional life, and the life of the planet is derived from rivers crossed between the surface and the ground, the natural water of the Twilight Star contains magical energy, it has warm properties, dissolves the cold of the entire planet, it breeds plants, organisms, is also called "source water” by the race of the Twilight Star, the source water is the most important resource of the entire planet.

Twilight Star's civilization is based on source water, historical national changes and wars, basically revolving around source water, biological long-term drinking source water, strong physique, light blue skinned Vines are the main race, the ancient kingdom of Vines is the most powerful country on the planet. The existence of the source water determines that the Twilight Star is a civilization dominated by magic. The technological development is slow, stable, and attention is paid to the individual. The social structure has obvious characteristics of magical civilization. For example, those who are able to manipulate magic freely have a high social status.

Although this is a surface civilization, because it is on the same magical side as Godola, it is highly compatible and has some connection to the stars, and once the powerful reach a certain level of power, they can apply for Godola's help to enter the "upper realm” - that is, the stars. This powerful man, known as the Flyer, has a history of hundreds of flyers, some with no sound, and some with occasional returns, leaving behind communicators, which are also “holy objects” guarded by the Corps of Patronage Mages, used to contact the Flyer.

Not long ago, the kingdom of Vine discovered the infamous plot of the “polluting magician” Rezal, who wanted to use some sort of grand magic ceremony to draw the source water from most of the southern territories and gain unparalleled power. The magic of this source water is immortal and, even if consumed, recovers in the natural cycle, but this ritual plunders all the magic of a region's source water, and the source water that loses all the magic slowly recovers for at least a few hundred years, thus diluting the source water magic concentration of the entire planet, causing the temperature of the planet to drop. And even the source water takes time to recycle, the area loses its hold, is covered by ice within a month, becomes a place of death, leaving hundreds of thousands homeless or even dead, and a thousand years ago, in the “ancient times", the same ceremony was performed, which is the cause of the extreme northern wilderness of Twilight Star, which has not yet been completely thawed, when all tribes united to kill the culprits and destroy the inherited knowledge of this ceremony, but a thousand years later it reappeared.

Thus, the Kingdom of Vine urgently assembled its forces, contacted other degrees, formed coalitions and headed straight to the site of the ceremony in Rezal to prevent the recurrence of the Twilight Star and the fertile soil in the south, which, if also frozen, would drastically reduce food production and thousands more would starve to death.

The Red Horn Mercenary Corps of Ringer accepted the hiring of Twilight Star Flyer and came here a few days ago to solve the problem. However, the number of puppets exceeded expectations and had to apply for foreign aid. Surprisingly, an unexpectedly powerful mercenary corps was willing to help.

Ling is relieved that this mercenary regiment is a well-known and deeply backed big man in the industry, and that people on the margins of the mercenary industry like Red Horn don't usually have a chance to interact with such a big man - with them, the mission is stable.

Time is running out, Rex, no more delays, and orders are issued to the clan coalition to march out.

Boom Boom Boom -

Footsteps and animal hooves converge in a rolling flood, the black-pressed army moves, quickly approaching the ruins of the ancient city, across the distance, you can see the secret blue magic giant statue of the ruins, with four arms, holding a giant axe, flashing magical glow, texture like rock and metal, just a glance can find it difficult to shake.

“Blue Shield Knights, detour! ”

Under Rexler's armor, a pinch of legs, the Knight's mount is a creature called the Bending Beast, snake-neck horse body, four legs folded, growled, rushed out, 3,000 Blue Shield knights followed closely, facing a magical giant statue three times taller than them, each knight's eyes filled with fearlessness.

The statue is manipulated, rapidly forming a formation and colliding with the Knights of Strike!

Bang, bang, bang!!

Man leaned on the beast, Mars splattered, the scene suddenly became chaotic, other tribes joined the battlefield, swords and claws were cut on the statues of Tinker Bell, yelling louder than alchemy bombs!

The Mad Warrior and the Knight were in front of him, and a famous warrior was beaten to the bone by the giant force of the statue and screamed, while the enemy's [polluter] hid behind the statue and unleashed corrosion on the warrior.

Only by destroying all the statues can the blockade magic array be opened and the statues hard spelled out, often at the expense of thirteen to eighteen elite fighters can a statue be destroyed, even if the Red Horn Mercenary Corps uses guns and abilities to help, killing and maiming the statues is not fast enough.

The number of statues is more than 800, and it's a wall of despair.

The bright red gradually expands on the green plains, and the dusk sky bears witness to this bloody battle.

“Keep going, keep going! ”

The Knights, led by Rex, have lost a quarter of their strength and have also killed the most demonic statues. He is resolute, goes around the battlefield and rushes back again.

A spear stabbed the leg of the statue, containing a burst of enchantment. The spear tip burst, crushing a small body of the statue. A statue capable of trampling hundreds of ordinary men, the Blue Shield Knights are the elite forces of the kingdom of Vine, every knight is a warrior of magic, far more powerful than ordinary man, such a heavy loss of war is already a great loss of energy.

Meanwhile, an artificially excavated space beneath the ruins of the ancient city, there is a monstrously large altar, where countless followers in black cry out in prayer and instill magic into the altar's magical array.

In the middle of the altar is an elderly Vine wearing a gorgeous robe in bright red, a man named Rezal, surrounded by a golden border mirror, applied [Thousand Miles of Eyes], mirrored with a bird's eye view of the war over his head.

“These idiots, who did get into your scheme, the statues were designed to consume them, hiding our lawyers beneath the plains, importing blood here, only enough blood as fuel to start the ceremony, hey, you tie the blockade array to the statues, what a great idea to have to fight the statues hard. ”

A high-ranking church man whispered beneath the altar.

Rezal nodded and asked softly: "How much blood is left? ”

“In an hour, the fuel to start the altar will be enough, and you will be the master of magic, the most powerful magician ever!” The high-ranking Christian was a fanatic.

“The strongest, huh...” Rezal looked at him with a sad look, shook his head and said to himself: “Twenty years of preparation is finally going to succeed, I've been stuck at this level for so many years, this is the limit of my talent, just cross this step and I can go to the border...”

……

The battle on the ground lasted for almost an hour. In order to catch up, the army almost abandoned its defenses. Half the statues were blown up and all the enemy polluters were killed, but the soldiers were also killed and wounded, the blood flowed into the river, the rest were exhausted and the war losses soared at an alarming rate.

“Hang on, with this efficiency, we can stop the ceremony in time!” Rex shouted and inspired morale.

At this point, he had a cold head, a statue bullied close to him, and the giant axe chopped off.

Boom!

Rex rushed out, and the original beast was split in half by an ax, and the ax blade was embedded in the ground, and the blood and guts of the beast flowed out of the ground, and if he hadn't escaped, it would have happened.

He didn't have time to be afraid, and the statue walked in with an axe, and the shadow covered Rex's head and the axe was raised.

Rex's leg was sore. He just got swept up. He was sweating, trying to get up.

At the first stroke, he suddenly noticed that the shadow under his feet seemed to have widened, followed by a growing tsunami.

Boom!!

An alloy orbital drop-off pod fell and fell right next to the statue, sweeping the statue and Rex out.

Knock, knock...

This was followed by a series of landing sounds, with several airdrops of the same style landing in succession.

Phew...

The hatch opened and a group of warrior fish in heavy steel armor came out, leading a human man, dressed in a black trench coat, wearing many ball-shaped ornaments, watching curiously from left to right.

“Are these the new reinforcements from the upper realm?” Even if Rex had a steady personality, his eyes couldn't help but be surprised by flashes.

At this moment, the statue rushed toward the human man, the axe snapped, and Rex's subconscious screamed a reminder, but the next scene let him hold his words back.

As soon as the man lifted his hand and his wrist slightly heaved, he grabbed the axe easily enough to split a running beast and pick his eyebrow.

“Well, the way this planet welcomes its guests is so enthusiastic... we're here at the right time, so don't just stand there and work. ”

Ringer, who was struggling, looked over and was relieved.

“Finally, the Black Star Mercenaries. ”
