Volume 5: The Battle of the Gods Chapter 1166 Arrival
Hearing the words of the Great Elder, Mr. Knight couldn't help but focus his eyes and scan the surrounding environment again, as if trying to confirm where this place is.
"Great Elder, although this place seems to have been in ruins for a long time, if it is really in the Defender Empire, then a few years ago, before the war started, it should have been as prosperous as the Alliance. Maybe you and I have been here before." After taking a few glances, Mr. Knight said to the Great Elder: "But now the scenery here has changed beyond recognition. I can't see any iconic buildings for the time being. I wonder if you can see anything, Elder?"
While Mr. Knight was speaking, the Great Elder was also carefully observing the images displayed on the floating screen in the chariot command room.
"The sights here are limited. Even if we are really in a city in the Defender Empire, we may just be in an inconspicuous corner. It is normal not to see any landmark buildings." After observing for a while, the elder said slowly: "Also, although only a few years have passed, the appearance of the alliance has changed greatly, not to mention the Defender Empire. Therefore, even if this is a city we visited before the war, we may not be able to find the ."
Mr. Knight frowned. It seemed that even the Great Elder couldn't figure out where this place was.
As the art of war says, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you fight a hundred battles without danger.
But now, after passing through the space channel, the alliance army didn’t even know where they were... This made Mr. Knight worried.
“Before we set off, I asked the people of the Blue Blood Empire in which area of the Defender Empire we would appear after being teleported. But I didn’t expect that even their mysterious Father God couldn’t confirm this… If not for this, we would be more confident now.” Mr. Knight said depressedly.
Then, he said to the great elder beside him: "In your opinion, should we send someone out to investigate?"
"Send someone out to investigate..." The elder's eyes flickered, then he shook his head and said, "I don't think that's necessary. There's no need for us to rush to figure out where this place is. Anyway, this place looks extremely desolate, and there doesn't seem to be any enemies nearby. In other words, at least we should be safe here for the time being. But if we rashly send people to investigate everywhere, it might alert the enemy and attract their attention. Don't forget, when you came here, Li Jiu told you not to act rashly, and just find a safe place to settle down."
After hearing this, Mr. Knight pondered it secretly and felt that the idea of fighting made sense, so he nodded.
Afterwards, under the order of Mr. Knight, the alliance army settled down on the spot and built temporary fortifications.
Not long after, the Blue Blood Empire army, which had entered the space channel right after the Alliance army, also arrived at this place one after another, and like the Alliance army, they stationed near the exit of the space channel.
After that, after a while, Marshal Tina also led the Alliance Expeditionary Force to land on this strange ruin.
Finally, the three armies formed a V-shaped formation and stayed where they were, waiting for the arrival of the two commanders, Li Jiu and Father God.
…
Like everyone else, Li Jiu also experienced a strange journey without the concept of time and space after entering the space channel.
And if we were to say that, as the strongest person in the entire alliance besides the Father God, his space journey was different from that of others, it was that, compared to others who could only see a blurry space-time turbulence in the space channel, he could actually see through the space turbulence and vaguely see the seemingly endless overlapping space-time...
“Whoosh!”
Li Jiu didn't know how long it had been before a sound of breaking air rang in his ears, and he saw a stable world again.
"This... It feels like the transmission took a long time , but in fact only a moment passed, less than a second..." After coming out of the space channel, Li Jiu first looked at the time and couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise.
"Hmm? This is..." Immediately afterwards, when Li Jiu looked up and saw the endless thick dark clouds in the sky, he couldn't help feeling depressed in his heart. He frowned slightly, his eyes full of surprise and doubt.
“Whoosh! Whoosh!”
"Coach!"
"Coach!"
At this moment, with two sounds of breaking through the air, Mr. Knight and Marshal Tina flew to his side at the same time.
Li Jiu first glanced at the two of them, then lowered his head to glance at the three armies stationed on the ground, and then asked them: "Where is this place? Have you ever encountered an attack from the Defender Empire?"
"Captain, we don't know exactly where this place is at the moment, and for safety reasons, we haven't rashly sent anyone out to investigate." Mr. Knight replied: "As for the people from the Defender Empire, we haven't encountered them yet."
Li Jiu nodded slightly. He agreed with Mr. Knight's cautious approach.
However, it is somewhat unreasonable that the three armies with nearly 10 million troops have been here for such a long time but have not encountered anyone from the Defender Empire.
In addition, the environment here looked extremely strange, which was very different from the Defender Empire that he had originally imagined, which made Li Jiu feel confused.
"This place... looks like the suburbs of a city." Li Jiu looked up and scanned the scenery ahead, and said slowly: "Also, although the buildings in front seem to have been ruined for a long time, from the outlines of these buildings, it can be vaguely seen that their architectural style should be almost the same as that of the Alliance... So, if nothing unexpected happens, this place should indeed be the Defender Empire without a doubt!"
After listening to Li Jiu's analysis, Mr. Knight and Marshal Tina looked at each other and nodded.
"I have just discussed this with Tina, and the result coincides with the commander's opinion." Mr. Knight said, "The problem now is that we don't know what happened here to turn it into what it is now. Also, what are the people from the Defender Empire doing, and why haven't they come to find us for so long? Logically speaking, with their strong technological capabilities, they would have discovered us the moment we set foot here."
