Chapter 173
As soon as Wang Baole's words came out, Zhou Lu's breathing suddenly stopped. Obviously, although she expected that Wang Baole would not admit it, she did not expect that the other party would call her a beauty.
But this title did not dissipate her anger. She snorted coldly at this moment, but she knew that she would not take revenge now, so she glared at Wang Baole and looked at Chen Yutong, Zhou Lu stood up and bowed.
"This is Senior Brother Chen Yutong, please give me the jade slips sent by Piaomiao Taoist Court." Zhou Lu, even as a military officer, should be more polite.
On the one hand, Chen Yutong's cultivation is also his background. You should know that being able to become a candidate for the deputy head of the Magic Army Pavilion is already extremely high in the outside world.
Chen Yutong also suppressed her inner thoughts at this moment and stepped forward to give the jade slip. Even if the other party's cultivation was not as good as him, he was still polite. This made Zhou Lu feel a lot of favor towards Chen Yutong.
Especially Chen Yutong is elegant and elegant, with such a status and cultivation, many female disciples on the Piaomiao Taoist Courtyard's upper courtyard island love each other. Unfortunately, he is always alone and has no connection with any female disciples.
Soon, with the connection between Zhou Lu and Chen Yutong, the task of Piaomiao Taoist Court was carried out by the military and was finally arranged in a small fortress. They will be responsible for the maintenance of the Vulcan cannon there during the beast tide.
After the mission docking, Chen Yutong, Wang Baole and others walked out of the military tent with the jade slips given by the military. As for Zhou Lu, she glared at Wang Baole's back coldly and snorted in her heart.
"I, Zhou Lu, are not a person who takes revenge on the public. Otherwise, it would be very easy to peel him off this time! But in the future, I will definitely take revenge!" Zhou Lu retreated her gaze and continued to handle official duties.
At this moment, Chen Yutong and the other two, who walked out of the military tent, stepped back into the airship, and were about to go to the small fortress designated by the mission, looked at Wang Baole. Zhou Penghai and Sun Fang were not good at asking, but Chen Yutong was curious and couldn't help but ask.
"Baole, you must know the female officer just now. Is she also in Lingxi Township? Could it be that she plans to strip you naked? No, this woman should not have entered the upper courtyard of the Four Great Courts, otherwise it would not have been possible to enter the military so early. She should have been arranged by her family..." Chen Yutong looked at Wang Baole with some confusion.
Wang Baole coughed, there was no outsider here, so he simply didn't hide it and spoke helplessly.
"She was called Zhou Lu, but she didn't strip me naked, but... I kicked her on the butt. I remember that although she was wearing a tight suit, she still looked bigger and smaller by me. She was originally a peach, but later she kicked her into a gourd..."
Wang Baole's words were very vivid and very graphic. In an instant, a similar picture appeared in Chen Yutong and the other two. Zhou Penghai and Sun Fang were convinced. When they looked at Wang Baole, they felt that the fat man in front of them had reached a level that they could not reach when flirting with girls.
Chen Yutong smiled bitterly, and finally patted Wang Baole on the shoulder, and spoke earnestly.
"Baole, women are very troublesome. I advise you... It is really troublesome to mess with them less in the future. This is also an experience. You have to learn from me in this regard."
Listening to Chen Yutong's experience, Wang Baole always felt something was wrong. Before he could think of it, they arrived at the small fortress designated by the mission in an airship.
This fortress was built on the top of a mountain. From a distance, it was black all over, like a huge metal semicircle, about a few hundred feet high and more than a thousand feet long. One side facing the original area was arc-shaped, with more than one hundred branches scattering out on it. At the end of each branch was a circular platform, and the overall appearance was like a spoon.
On the circular platform at the end of each branch, there is a huge Vulcan cannon about ten feet high. In addition, there are many soldiers stationed on each circular platform, with a size of about a thousand people.
Some of these warriors are responsible for the simple maintenance of the Vulcan Cannon, while others are responsible for killing the enemy when the beast tide arrives, preventing the ferocious beast from rushing into the Vulcan Cannon.
The reason for this design is that on the one hand, the Vulcan cannon itself needs it, and on the other hand, it is because once the Vulcan cannon collapse, it will form a self-destructive force and cannot be too close to the fortress.
At the same time, on both sides of the fortress, in the undulating mountains, you can see translucent shields, spreading along the mountains toward both sides, like huge protective layers, blocking the tide of beasts in the original area, and also connecting with two other fortresses farther away.
If you can stand at the highest point and look down, you can see all the small fortresses, like dots, centered on the seventh main stop, arranged in a huge formation protective light curtain.
In addition to resisting the invasion of beast tide, the tasks of these small fortresses are to offset the formation fluctuations centered on the seventh main stop, so that the formation fluctuations caused by the beast tide will be scattered in all fortresses, thus making the formation more stable.
Each small fortress naturally became a breakthrough in the eyes of ferocious beasts, so these small fortresses themselves are equipped with Vulcan cannons. Although they are not as many as the main plugs, there are hundreds of them. In addition, there are also teleportation arrays so that they can help friendly forces or receive rescue from friendly forces at any time.
There are hundreds of small fortresses with such lethality here in the Seventh Main Entrance, which formed the Seventh Gate of the Federation, making it like an iron barrel. After the war of ferocious beasts, it has always stood until today, blocking the explosion of beast tides again and again.
At this moment, as the airship landed in the fortress, Wang Baole and his party met the responsible commander here, a strong man with a beard, and he also integrated into the fortress.
Time flies, and three days pass.
During these three days, Wang Baole had almost no time to meditate, and all the time was with Chen Yutong to check some of the Vulcan cannons here.
There are many disciples from the four major Taoist abbeys, and although war cultivators account for the majority, there are also some other monks who are good at it.
Everyone has their own tasks. As for the military cultivators who maintain the Vulcan cannon, including Wang Baole and his group, there are more than a dozen of them, and they dispersed to maintain the Vulcan cannon, so there are only thirty Vulcan cannons assigned to them.
Although there are not many, the Vulcan cannon is too complicated. During the three days, Wang Baole was constantly learning and testing, and was already shocked by the structure of the Vulcan cannon.
Each Vulcan cannon is composed of hundreds of spiritual treasures, and each spiritual treasure is like a part, making the power of this Vulcan cannon not as simple as the stacking of hundreds of spiritual treasures.
It is precisely because of its complexity that once an error occurs, ordinary military repairmen cannot handle it at all. Therefore, Wang Baole and Zhou Penghai can only be assistants, and soldiers are not qualified to repair Lingbao, so Chen Yutong is the main responsible for maintaining it.
However, Wang Baole himself can make spiritual treasures, so during these three days of study, his mastery of this combination of spiritual treasures has improved rapidly. Even Chen Yutong was surprised. In the end, he simply asked Wang Baole to maintain it alone, which also shared a lot of workload of their group.
This kind of busyness lasted for a week. After all the Vulcan cannons were inspected, repaired and replaced, Wang Baole and his group became a little more leisurely.
By this time, their mission had been completed for half, and the next step was to ensure that the normal operation of these Vulcan cannons during the beast tide.
So most of the time Chen Yutong spent the rest of her life making friends with disciples from other Taoist temples. Zhou Penghai was also keen on this matter, while Sun Fang got along with those officers.
Only Wang Baole here is more popular than those officers. During this week, he has discovered that most of the soldiers here are in the ancient martial arts realm, which is obviously not as good as him, but when they look at him, they both have envy and protection.
It is not to be protected, but to protect Wang Baole. To be precise, to protect monks like Wang Baole!
This kind of protection caused Wang Baole to feel a strong shock after seeing it many times.
He is obviously a monk, but people from the ancient martial arts realm have to protect themselves...
Because, in their opinion, the small number of monks is hope, and there is no loss!
And monks who can create and repair the Vulcan cannon will not cause any damage!
When Wang Baole gradually realized all this, an indescribable feeling appeared in his heart. He saw many warriors of similar age as his, many of them had scars on their bodies, and many of their magic weapons had traces of broken and repaired many times.
He thought of them... fighting life and death with ferocious beasts here when he was practicing in the Taoist temple.
He thought of it as these warriors who used their lives and blood to exchange for the monks' growth time and more civilians' peaceful lives.
Therefore, after his leisure, Wang Baole chose to take the initiative to contact these warriors and do his best to repair the flaws on the magic weapon for them. Gradually, because of Wang Baole's approach and personality, he quickly became familiar with the warriors here...
After getting familiar with each other, Wang Baole often forgot that he was a monk, and his relationship with the warriors became a little different.
