Chapter 6598: Come with a knife
The recent period has not been a good time for the boundary-breaking masters and the internal energy-leaving-body masters from the three empires. When they came, no matter what ideas they had, they all had the idea of ​​fighting for the food supply of the human empire.

However, after they arrived, not many locusts were killed, as they all served as human batteries. Moreover, each person had different indicators according to their strength. Especially for someone like Lu Bu, who was recognized as the strongest in the world, the amount of essence of heaven and earth that he had to refine every day was enough to scare people to death.

In Lu Bu’s own words, I feel like I’m not here to save the world, I’m here to be a slave.

However, now that the human empire was in crisis, such words that were not in line with unity could not be said at all, so Lu Bu held his breath tightly, and had been holding it until now. He was finally released before the explosion and could vent his anger on Huang Tian.

Severus looked at the nearly two hundred top warriors who had gathered together. Except for Cao Cao who was going to fight with Ardashir, and a small number of powerful men with internal energy who were not suitable to appear here, the top warriors of the three empires all appeared here.

To be honest, Severus could sense the anger in these people's hearts. After all, they came here to kill the enemies and save the world, but they ended up being treated like slaves for the past half month. Anyone would be in a bad mood.

Especially those veterans who had reached the sixth or seventh level of smelting. They attacked this node today and destroyed that node tomorrow. They had created many achievements. There were many veterans who had broken through the boundaries and had their internal energy leave their bodies. It was impossible to say that they had no resentment.

"Let's assign the combat tasks first so that everyone can have a general understanding of the overall situation in Africa now, in order to ensure subsequent advancement." Severus called to Opolis.

Upon hearing this, Opolis nodded, then looked at the powerful men present and quickly generated a map of the distribution of Locust Sky's combat power and a topographic map of the African region.

"At present, about 400 billion locusts have completed takeoff. The number of locust nymphs is about twice the number of locusts taking off. All green plants in northern and northeastern Africa, whether poisonous or not, have been completely destroyed by locusts." Opolis enlarged the image to the powerful people present, and the leader Lu Bu's eyes turned red just by looking at this scene.

Although Lu Bu had no bottom line when it came to cheating people, this brutal state where there was not even any green plants did shock Lu Bu. People in Bingzhou had suffered from locust plagues. No matter if it was a locust plague on the grassland that forced the Hu people to move south, or a locust plague in Bingzhou that left the locals without food, it was all suffering.

But no matter how bitter it is, it is not as exaggerated as what is happening in East Africa now. No matter whether it is poisonous or not, all green plants are being destroyed. This is too outrageous.

"Can I ask a question?" Zhang Liao also had a grim expression. As a Bingzhou native, he really couldn't stand this kind of thing. But Zhang Liao was really strange. In addition to being a human battery, he also had the task of being Lu Bu's scout. As for Zhang Liao's task indicators, Lu Bu took them all. What is the purpose of the Heart Tribulation? Isn't the Heart Tribulation for unlimited output?

For Lu Bu, adding Zhang Liao's refining indicators was not a big deal at all. It was tiring enough to do it anyway, and adding Zhang Liao would not tire him to death. It would be better to let Zhang Liao do the research for him. After all, among the people he trusted the most, Zhang Liao was the only one who was proficient in both civil and military affairs and had sufficient observation skills. So he took over Zhang Liao's job and let him conduct the investigation.

"Okay." Opolis nodded.

"Why don't the locusts move south? There are tens of millions of square kilometers of grassland in southern Africa, enough for trillions of locusts to devour. But the locusts would rather risk starving to death and take the sea route to Central Asia, or even to the Central Plains, than move south." Zhang Liao looked at Opolis and asked.

Before, Zhang Liao thought that the whole Africa was doomed when he saw the miserable situation in East Africa. However, after flying and observing all the way and crossing the equator, he found that southern Africa was still thriving. And he didn't know if it was because of the locust plague, the beast tide that used to come once a year did not come this year. The big livestock in Africa are all making a living south of the equator.

"Because of light and wind, and possibly geomagnetism. Among them, the influence of wind is probably the smallest. It is mainly due to light and geomagnetism." Opolis was silent for a while and then spoke. They in Rome have also conducted research in this aspect.

Africa is currently considered Rome's pasture, relying on the annual beast tide to provide Rome with some high-end food ingredients, which are then smoked and dried and traded with the Han Dynasty. It is one of the very important industries. For this reason, Pompianus also relied on this industry for certain naturalization. Then, after the locust outbreak this year, the beast tide did not come, and the raw materials of the industry were directly gone.

This kind of thing is related to the food of the Roman Empire, so Rome must conduct an investigation even though it has limited manpower. After such an investigation, it was found that the locusts were only north of the equator and did not go south of the equator at all. For the large livestock living in Africa, southern Africa is still a paradise and can still support hundreds of millions of wild animals.

On the contrary, in the north, due to the massive locust plague, even green is no longer visible.

This strange situation forced Rome to send people to conduct research. Although the exact cause has not yet been found, the general conclusion is out.

"Light, magnetic field, and wind?" Zhang Liao frowned when he heard this. It was fortunate that he had been in the Ganges before and had dealt with the salted fish of the Wang family in Kuaiji, otherwise he would not have understood what the other party was saying.

"Locusts may rely on some kind of light to migrate, and according to our observations, light is affected by the geomagnetic field to some extent, which makes it difficult for locusts to cross the equator." Opolis tried his best to explain the situation they knew in a simple way.

"Although I don't know the reason, it should be the same reason why typhoons, cyclones and tornadoes cannot form near the equator. Generally speaking, there is a middle line between the north and south magnetic poles. If it is placed on the land we stand on, it will cause some strange phenomena in this area." The researcher who was born in Brahman took over Opolis' words.

"Ah, won't there be tornadoes at the equator?" Opolis looked at Haji with a puzzled look, and the researchers from the Han Dynasty also looked at Haji.

"Ah, you didn't know?" Haji looked at the others in surprise.

"We are not on the equator!" Opolis answered as a matter of course.

"We are not on the equator either. You probably don't pay attention to this. Anyway, the situation near the equator is completely different from the normal north and south. Even the directions of typhoons in the north and south are different." Haji casually said two things that normal people would never study. Brahmins are so boring, but you have to admit that there is indeed wisdom in this thing.

"Okay, let's get back to the topic. Although it's still hard to explain why, the researchers from the Kushan Empire have confirmed this fact." Opolis clapped his hands to attract the attention of the people present. "In short, due to the influence of the magnetic field at the equator, there are certain peculiarities on the surface of the planet. This peculiarity is difficult for unintelligent locusts to overcome."

Zhang Liao nodded when he heard this, and then asked with a strange look, "Can we use geomagnetism to trap locusts in a certain area?"

"No." People from the Wang family of Kuaiji were present, and Wang Liang directly rejected this proposal. "We cannot guarantee what impact the super-large-scale impact on the geomagnetic field will have on the ground beneath our feet, but I know that the super-strong magnetic field and such a large-scale coverage will have an impact on us, not to mention if such a large-scale magnetic field arrangement is to be carried out..."

Wang Liang did not say the rest, but the researchers present understood that the three empires had already accomplished what they could quickly accomplish, and the rest were things that they had ideas for but could not accomplish in a short period of time, so they stopped. There is no such thing as perfect preparation because there is not enough time.

According to Severus, now we can only fight the locusts with what we have on hand and decide life or death. If nothing else, we should kill the leader of the locusts first, and then annihilate most of them to reduce the losses. As for deeper ideas, don't count on them.

"General Zhang, do you have any other questions?" Seeing that Zhang Liao looked clear, Opolis asked again.

"No, there are many people with the surname Zhang here, so I suggest you call me Wenyuan." Zhang Liao nodded and spoke.

"No problem, General Wenyuan." Opolis nodded, and then continued to popularize the overall situation of the current locust plague and their goals to the officers present.

"Our primary goal at present is to destroy this core node. This node is the core for the birth of the Locust Sky's will and the Locust God-image by absorbing and devouring the Locust Sky's main body. It is the basis for the birth of the Locust Sky's will in the next stage. The last time, the elite veterans of the three empires carried out a tentative attack, but failed." Opolis said with a somewhat unpleasant expression.

There was nothing wrong with the plan of Qi Xiu's group, but they failed in the end due to lack of hard power. An ordinary node only had a few boundary-breaking locusts, a dozen to dozens of internal energy-leaving locusts, and a large number of Qi-cultivating locusts at the level of forming Gang. It was difficult for the top veterans to eliminate them, but not very fatal. However, this core node was really impossible to take down.

"The previous plan to cut off the nodes of Locust Sky destroyed almost all branch nodes, but after these nodes suffered heavy losses, Locust Sky instinctively recycled the nodes. This behavior reduced Locust Sky's overall control over the locusts. This is also the reason why the autophagy phenomenon of locusts has increased significantly recently, and it is also the reason why some locusts flew away from East Africa." Opolis enlarged the real-life picture to allow everyone present to further understand what had happened recently.

"As for the so-called partial locusts flying away from East Africa, how much is this portion?" Ahmada stood up and asked. Compared to the Han Dynasty which was beaten the last, and the Romans who had been beaten so hard in the North African division that not even a blade of grass was left, the locusts that were taking off now were mainly targeting the Kushans.

Although there is a vast Indian Ocean between Kushan and Africa, this is not a problem at all for the third wave of locusts with abnormal combat effectiveness.

"There is no precise data, but according to the estimated coverage area, there are about 20 billion." Opolis said expressionlessly. He didn't want to think about it. The problem was that the number was too large. If one node collapsed, Locust Sky would be unable to control the locust swarm. The shackles formed by the Roman Empire on the unformed will of Locust Sky would be directly ineffective for the locust swarm that Locust Sky could not control, and tens of billions of hungry locusts would run away.

There is nothing to eat in East Africa, so why not run away quickly? The reason they didn't run away before was because there were multiple controls, and every day they could see a large number of locusts with their stiff bodies turned into food, and they were bound by Locust Sky, barely holding on. Now that the nodes of Locust Sky have been destroyed, the locusts ran away directly.

"Twenty billion is still acceptable." Ahmada said expressionlessly. Twenty billion escaped from East Africa, so at most there would be five billion left in Kushan. With only five billion, the Kushan Empire could still be destroyed. The only thing is that they might lose tens of billions and then be pushed into the hinterland. Then there would be no good way to deal with it.

"Okay, let me continue." Opolis pointed at the high-definition image and continued to explain, "Currently, this core node has gathered all the elites of the entire third round of locust plague. Our army sent elite scouts to explore, but due to the existence of Locust Sky, the collective nature of the locusts has increased significantly. The scouts failed to complete the task effectively. We can only confirm that the number of boundary-breaking locusts in this core area has exceeded four digits, and the number of locusts with internal energy leaving the body is above 20,000, no more and no less."

To be honest, the scouts sent by the three empires at this time were all top-level scouts, but they were useless. There were simply too many powerful species in the core area. The four-digit boundary-breaking locusts were an overwhelming gap in combat power for the top scouts of the three empires.

The approximate number of internal energy leaving the body and the number of boundary-breaking locusts could be detected thanks to the fact that Huang Tao, Su Zong and Gu Laili were not afraid of death at all. However, even so, Huang Tao had two phantoms kneeling as his substitutes. After Su Zong was killed, he is still in the countdown to resurrection. If it were not for the fact that they could sense Su Zong's presence, everyone else would have thought that Su Zong was killed. Gu Laili was directly beaten to pieces and turned into light and lay flat.

In short, the big guys tried very hard, but the weight of thousands of boundary-breaking locusts was really unbearable. Even the gods couldn't stand it. Jiang Guang, who was very brave before, made a charge and ran out with a bruised face. After that, no one rushed anymore. Everyone was not stupid. They really couldn't win. The boundary-breaking locusts were fast and had strong attacks. It was really possible to kill them.

“How come there are so many realm-breaking and internal energy-leaving bodies?” Perennis said with a grim expression, “Didn’t they say there were only a few hundred realm-breaking before? How come the number has increased several times now?”

"It's meaningless to ask this kind of question. I will kill half of them and you can divide the rest. I will lead the charge then." Lu Bu stood up with a cold and arrogant look on his face. He may not be able to do other things, but he is a master. Damn it, who dares to call himself a master in front of me!
"Uh..." Perennis turned his head to glance at Lu Bu.

Okay, since you are not afraid of danger and take the lead, then there is nothing to say. Since you are so brave to rush to the front, there is no need for other plans.

In fact, the biggest trouble in this matter is that the person who takes the lead will be very dangerous. Perennis originally planned to take the lead himself, but with hundreds of Boundary-Breaking Locusts, Perennis felt that he could still hold on with a bunch of warriors sharing the burden. But there are thousands of them, and maybe more. He really can't handle it.

"Just charge in and kill Huang Tian?" Guan Yu looked at Lu Bu and asked, "How confident are you, Wen Hou, about Huang Tian's will?"

"Go up and strike first. If that doesn't work, use a normal attack with super force. If that doesn't work, use Heart Tribulation's super huge normal attack." Lu Bu said indifferently. These gods could feel the will of Huangtian, and that thing had already emitted some kind of pressure, which had some impact on them. Of course, for Lu Bu, this was the fucking coordinate.

"The scale of Huangtian's will is very large, and for some reasons, it may have a core." Guan Yu rarely expressed his judgment.

"That's exactly what I want to say. Our current plan is for you to break the outer shell, and then we in Rome will use the Blazing Ring to destroy the core." Opolis explained, "The core of will formed by trillions of locusts, we are worried that conventional methods cannot be used to deal with it."

“Didn’t you say that we are not allowed to use the Blazing Sky Ring?” Luohu Luo said with a dark face. In essence, the incident this time was caused by the use of the Blazing Sky Ring.

"The three empires have joined forces to modify the Seraphic Ring. After accumulating energy, we will release a light cone of about ten centimeters to carry out targeted strikes." Opolis explained. This was a forced collaboration between the three empires, and overall the effect was good.

In short, the Roman Empire relied on the Seraphic Ring, also known as the Solar Mirror, to create the golden light of the sun. After locking onto anything through the gravitational well formed by the Nine-Layered Sky Palace of the Han Dynasty, this thing could then launch the golden light of the sun to attack. The power of the golden light of the sun was only half that of a Big Ivan, but the entire power was compressed to a size of ten centimeters.

Overall, its destructive power is not as good as the last thing, but in terms of lethality, let alone the locust will formed by trillions of locusts, theoretically this thing can penetrate a planet.

However, for this thing, Vasudeva I even thought of killing the Han Dynasty and Rome, because 90% of the supermodel cloud energy accumulated by the Kushan Empire for several years was squeezed out. There was no other way. After building the Anti-Liangyi Binghuo Xuanxiang, Jedi Tiantong, Mediterranean Utopia and other things that the other two empires thought were outrageous, the energy provided by the Kushan Empire still had 70% left.

It has come to this, what else can we say? Of course, brothers should make more efforts and let us build it vigorously. So when Vasudeva I was not paying attention, we spent money to build the Solar Mirror and the Golden Sun. In short, Vasudeva I was on his way with a knife in hand.
