Chapter 277 The Wall of Burning Steel

Buzz!

The Wall of Burning Steel shook once more. Terrifying energy condensed in a short time, rapidly diverting to each cannon muzzle before erupting forth!

The dazzling brilliance was as blinding as the sun, and the area around Frenzy Island was once again shrouded in a sea of light.

But unlike the previous times, this time, within the terrifying sea of light created by the Wall of Burning Steel, there was no scene of devastating destruction, of evaporating everything.

In the due east direction of Frenzy Island, a piece was missing from that sea of light.

In that missing space, a colossal Sky Citadel stood silently, blocking the wall of light woven from terrifying energy cannons!

At this moment, the Sky Citadel and the wall of energy cannon light were not directly touching, but were enveloped by an invisible barrier.

This was the powerful protective circle created by the Boundary Tower. Not long ago, it had withstood the Valley of Death from the Kunlun giant ship, and now, it once again resisted the powerful destructive force of the Wall of Burning Steel, slowly advancing forward!

Three seconds later, the aftershocks of the energy cannons dissipated, and beneath the Sky Citadel, more than 300,000 sea beasts were unharmed!

"Aooo!"

"Hoo-roar!"

Seeing this scene, the sea beasts roared and howled frantically and excitedly, their eyes filled with madness as they rapidly advanced towards Frenzy Island!

Zing!

The Wall of Burning Steel fired again, the sound of surging light streams passing through the air with a very pleasing sound.

A large number of energy cannon light screens once again made contact with the protective barrier outside the Sky Citadel, and the water-pattern-like transparent barrier trembled and twisted at a speed visible to the naked eye. The terrifying power carried in the energy cannons was also rapidly consumed in this process.

In the end, the energy cannons dissipated again, and the barrier did not collapse. After a violent shaking, it returned to a stable state.

"The Boundary Tower is the strongest fortification for protecting against light energy weapons and electromagnetic weapons in a Level 4 shelter, but its endurance is not without limits." Li Tianran watched the violently distorted barrier outside the Sky Citadel during the second collision with the Wall of Burning Steel's firepower, and said softly, "Attacks like the Wall of Burning Steel can be withstood at most seven times before the Boundary Tower's barrier completely collapses, and it will take at least thirty seconds to restart."

The frequency of the Wall of Burning Steel's attacks was about once every three seconds, and at this time, the beast tide was less than two kilometers away from Frenzy Island.

Two kilometers meant that Li Tianran needed at least fifteen seconds to fire the energy cannons five times in order to break the barrier outside the Sky Citadel and annihilate the beast tide.

But fifteen seconds, for the sea beasts, was enough time for them to land completely!

Their speed in the water was comparable to torpedoes, and they could cover the distance of two kilometers in just a few breaths.

"Warriors! Direct combat is unavoidable… This is the most powerful enemy Frenzy Island has faced since its establishment, but do not be afraid." Li Tianran said loudly, "Because they are also afraid of us!"

Yes, compared to the ancient civilization, the current evolution level of Frenzy Island was not high enough, and the life levels of the warriors were low! But at the same time, Frenzy Island also possessed various technological weapons that the ancient civilization had not fully recovered, and once the Northern Heaven Gate Project was launched, the human civilization's counterattack against the ancient civilization would begin.

If the ancient civilization was not afraid of the human civilization's counterattack, then why would they launch a general attack on Frenzy Island just as the Northern Heaven Gate Project was about to be completed?

The pioneers heard this and thought of many things. The tension in their hearts slowly decreased, and finally disappeared completely.

It turned out that the enemy they had always looked up to, the enemy that made them despair, was also afraid of them in their hearts!

"Screw them! What's so great about this bunch of beasts! When Frenzy Island was first built, it was extremely weak compared to any country in the world, but back then, I dared to go with the Governor to attack the Russian evolution forces! Are we so powerful now that our courage is not as good as before?"

"Let them see that although we are low in life level, I will be the first to disagree if they want to invade our home at will!"

The pioneers were filled with righteous indignation.

"Raise your blades!" Lu Chi silently watched the movements of the beast tide, suddenly shouted, drew his steel blade, and assumed an attacking stance.

The pioneers were also filled with excitement, drew their steel blades in unison, and quickly entered a state of readiness.

At this time, the beast tide was less than one kilometer away from Frenzy Island!

If the Wall of Burning Steel could not resist the beast tide, then the pioneers would use their bodies to build a second line of defense, a wall of flesh and blood!

The bright steel blades gleamed with a cold light, reflecting in the pupils of the three distant Apostles.

"Foolish bravery…" The Sky Apostle flapped his giant wings, staring at the excited pioneers on the Wall of Steel: "The courage of lower beings will soon be lost with an overwhelming defeat!"

Among the beast tide about to reach Frenzy Island, there were nearly a thousand sub-sequence followers. These powerful secondary evolved creatures would have an overwhelming advantage in close combat with the enemy after successfully crossing the Wall of Burning Steel!

In the eyes of the three Apostles, the defensive line formed by the pioneers would soon be crushed and penetrated!

"The primary goal of this attack is to completely destroy Frenzy Island and Li Tianran; if we can't do that, we must at least destroy the 'Northern Heaven Gate'!" The Sky Apostle spoke for the first time about the ancient civilization's goals for this war: "Or, rescue the Earth Apostle from this island!"

"Without the help of the Triangle Tower clan, our permissions cannot be fully opened. The Earth Apostle is too special… We need her." The Night Apostle also spoke slowly at this time, his huge body half-submerged in the sea water.

"Kings cannot be confined." After listening, the Sky Apostle repeated the words he had once said to Li Tianran.

Fifteen seconds passed in an instant.

The Wall of Burning Steel flashed again, and the crumbling barrier outside the Sky Citadel finally shattered!

But at this time, a thick stench was already rushing in. Relying on the Sky Citadel to force a path, the beast tide had now completely landed on Frenzy Island. They crowded, roared, and clung to the Wall of Burning Steel, and the high temperature on the steel wall could not stop their footsteps.

The wall trembled, and the beast tide surged up like a wave!

The pioneers roared and collided directly with the beast tide. In an instant, blood splattered and the great battle began!

……

At this time, Qin Yiming, who had been closely observing the war, sat in the control room, his brows furrowed, and he kept muttering: "No! This is wrong! The beast tide shouldn't have broken through so quickly… Even if the Wall of Burning Steel is ineffective, the kinetic energy missile silos and machine gun nests in the northern district are something the Boundary Tower's barrier cannot withstand, and they can completely block the beast tide outside the island!"

"But since the beginning of the war, these missile silos and machine gun nests have not fired a single shot. Could it be that the boss has too much faith in the Wall of Burning Steel's abilities and is too arrogant?"

"He shouldn't make such a mistake!" Qin Yiming looked at the real-time battle situation, scratching his head in anxiety. He always felt that in this war, Li Tianran had shown Frenzy Island's firepower… too weakly!
