Chapter 2482 Fiery Prison City (1)
Above the Skysea Fortress, the night sky was tinged with deep red by the lights of the war preparedness system.
Hundreds of thousands of mechs, warships, and superhuman warriors are ready to go. Huge energy pipelines run through the entire city, and the deep humming sound seems to be the prelude to an apocalyptic expedition.
Zhang Yi stood on the command platform at the top of the main tower, overlooking the entire steel city.
Tianhai City is humanity's most powerful fortress, yet he personally shut down most of its defense systems, leaving only a silent city outline.
In order to attack the kingdom of the Zhu Rong clan, he had to divert the vast majority of his fighting force.
So what's left is just an empty shell.
After all, he couldn't possibly bring the entire city's hundreds of thousands of people with him when fighting.
"Energy hub locked, city mode switched to - full defense mode."
The voice of the intelligent control center echoed in the air.
The entire city was shrouded in a somber atmosphere, with the remaining patrol members armed with heavy weapons, diligently guarding the territory.
Zhou Ke'er walked to his side, wearing a black combat cloak, her silver hair fluttering in the wind.
"Are we really going to mobilize the entire army? The world is in turmoil right now, and those who stay behind might be in danger."
A hint of reluctance appeared in her eyes.
After all, Tianhai City has been destroyed and rebuilt several times, and this version of Tianhai City is her favorite.
The level of civilization even surpasses that before the apocalypse.
Zhang Yi calmly replied, "It's only temporary. We will end this war as quickly as possible and then return. After my previous deterrence, no ancient civilization will dare to approach us for a while."
"If Tianhai wants to survive, it cannot remain stagnant. To instill fear in them, it must actively plunder!"
His gaze pierced the night, looking eastward. That was the direction deep within the earth's crust.
"The Zhurong clan... they will be our first touchstone."
……
In Zhang Yi's shadow space, in the luxurious command hall that had been set up, Lu Keran, Fatty Xu, Zhou Ke'er, Deng Shentong, Uncle You and others gathered together.
The air was thick with a sense of both unease and excitement, and the light screen on the wall projected maps of the underground geological structure and energy density.
Wearing technician gloves, Lu Keran smiled excitedly: "Finally, this day has come. My [Dreamer] is practically bursting with excitement!"
While stuffing a nutrition bar into his mouth, Fatty Xu exclaimed, "Isn't this hell?! 50,000 meters underground, the temperature there could roast me into a pork chop!"
Uncle You sighed, patted Fatty Xu's face and said, "Say less unlucky things, or everyone will turn you into a pork chop right now."
Fatty Xu obediently covered his mouth, "Um... I was just joking."
Going to the inner world to fight makes one feel a little uneasy.
Even though his superpower index is as high as 30000 points, his inherent caution, which is even greater than Zhang Yi's, cannot be changed.
Deng Shentong sat upright in his chair, his long fingers tapping the table: "Theoretically, as long as the Dreamer's energy shield is fully activated, we can operate in the upper mantle for more than thirty years. In addition, the new combat suits that Miss Lu has made for us have an adaptive temperature system, so there shouldn't be any major problems."
"Not a big problem? Hey, have you never been sprayed in the face by lava?"
Fatty Xu said worriedly, "That thing is hotter than a woman's temper!"
Everyone was used to Fatty Xu's tone of voice and couldn't be bothered to pay him any attention.
Yang Xinxin's voice swept by like a cool breeze.
"Our mission this time is to attack, not to explore. I have already planned the route, and with the Fire Demon leading the way, we can bypass all defenses and go straight to the core area of the Zhu Rong clan."
Her gaze swept over everyone, her tone icy: "This is a war of civilization. Gentlemen, enjoy the hunt!"
A flicker of shattered excitement flashed in her obsidian-like eyes.
Unlike others, Yang Xinxin enjoys life after the apocalypse.
Only in such a world can her talents be displayed and she be able to enjoy thrilling adventures at all times!
When Zhang Yi's voice came, everyone instinctively stood up straight.
"Assembly complete."
"Yes."
Zhang Yi's gaze penetrated the shadows, sweeping over the crowd, his tone steady and powerful:
"This operation is codenamed—[Molten Realm Expedition]."
"Target: The Zhurong Clan."
"Objective: To destroy the civilization that initiated the war against Huaxu! And to intimidate all ancient civilizations in the present world!"
He paused for a moment, his tone lowering slightly: "This is not a defensive battle, but a battle to establish our authority. We must let all races know—the Huaxu Kingdom, especially my territory, Zhang Yi's territory, is absolutely inviolable!"
Lu Keran's eyes gleamed brightly, and he couldn't wait to take out the weapon he had personally improved and unleash its full power.
"Establish authority? I like that word! Then let's blow the earth's core into it this time!"
Zhang Yi glanced at her, a slight smile playing on his lips: "That's exactly what I plan to do."
He turned his gaze to the outside world, raised his hand, and opened an enormous dimensional gate.
"let's start!"
boom--
A tremendous commotion resounded in Tianhai City, and the colossal Tianhai Fortress immediately rose from the ground, flying towards the dimensional gate in mid-air.
The light patterns on the fortress's outer shell flowed like tides, gradually blurring the city's boundaries.
The entire Skysea Fortress was sucked into another dimension, like a massive steel whale sinking into the Mirror Sea.
A dozen seconds later, only a vast, empty wasteland remained, with the wind howling.
The fire demon has been completely controlled and is guiding Zhang Yi through the shadows.
The dimensional gate opened, and Zhang Yi took a step out, instantly disappearing five kilometers away.
He quickly arrived at the area where the volcano had erupted, and from there, he headed straight for the Earth's core!
In the underground world, it is actually very difficult to determine the location. The Zhu Rong clan relies on their innate ability to identify directions.
Without their guidance, it would indeed be very difficult to find the kingdom of the Zhu Rong clan hidden in a tiny crevice within the vast Earth.
Zhang Yi traversed thick layers of soil and rock, rapidly descending to a depth of approximately 50,000 meters, reaching the upper mantle region.
Guided by the fire demon, he finally found the entrance to the Kingdom of Zhu Rong.
After another spatial teleportation, the darkness suddenly disappeared, and the dazzling light made Zhang Yi squint slightly.
The red light of magma, the blue light of space, and the white light of energy intertwine to create a chaotic picture.
A river of lava rushes ahead, its scorching temperature reaching thousands of degrees Celsius!
However, this level of high temperature had no effect on Zhang Yi, who was wearing the End Demon God Armor.
But seeing the colorful lava river due to temperature differences, he couldn't help but sigh.
"It's a miracle that life can exist in a place like this!"
The fire demon knelt before the crack, his forehead almost touching the ground, and said respectfully, "Master, the path leading to the City of Inferno lies ahead."
