Chapter 261 Fighting a war... and bringing these things?

Unbeknownst to them, the demons' charge had already ceased, seemingly knowing that the tide had turned and no longer wasting their resources.

On the beach and the sea, only the corpses of demons remained, their dark red blood changing the color of the ocean.

The smell of burnt meat and blood wafted across the coastal positions on the sea breeze, but no one cared anymore.

From within the enormous portal, the sound of synchronized metallic footsteps echoed, heavy and rhythmic.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

One after another, the Great Xia soldiers, clad in exoskeleton armor, marched with heads held high and chests out, stepping onto this alien continent with majestic steps.

The standard-issue rifles in their hands gleamed with a metallic sheen, and their expressions beneath their masks were hidden from view, revealing only a chilling aura.

An hour later, the infantry formations had completed their march.

Emerging from the portal was an army of unmanned mechanical dogs.

These quadruped machines, carrying machine guns on their backs and ammunition boxes on their sides, moved swiftly, forming a mobile metal array, and silently advanced to their designated area.

Finally, an endless convoy of logistics support vehicles, fully loaded with ammunition, food, and medical supplies, slowly drove out.

On the distant hillside, Kyle, Balin, Elder Muyu, Grom, and the others were completely dumbfounded.

Their mouths were open, their throats were dry, and they couldn't utter a single word.

The scene before them gave them the feeling of natives entering the city.

"These... these soldiers, are they the elite of Great Xia or ordinary soldiers?" The centaur Grom's voice trembled.

This imposing manner and the unwavering, disciplined demeanor were something he had never seen before.

The dwarf Balin's large beard trembled as he stared intently at the exoskeleton soldiers and then at the mechanical dogs.

"Oh, God of Craftsmen, do you see these? These puppets have no magical fluctuations, no runes inscribed on them. Is technology really that amazing?"

Kyle's face was pale, and his lips were tightly pressed together.

He muttered to himself:

"Holy Light God, is the arrival of Great Xia truly your will?"

Elder Muyu's hand, which was stroking his beard, froze in mid-air as he looked at the steel creations, sensing no life in them.

Only cold creations.

"This is shocking! Just how many troops has the Great Xia Dynasty committed?"

Long Zhan glanced at the various weapons and equipment that had been deployed and confirmed that the quantity was sufficient to ensure the absolute safety of the fiefdom in its early stages.

He picked up the walkie-talkie and issued new instructions.

"Engineering troops, proceed in an orderly manner!"

Inside the portal, the art style suddenly changed again.

Huge yellow excavators, loaders, bulldozers, heavy cranes, cement mixers...

One after another, forming a brand new and equally large convoy, they rumbled into Terra.

This move left the representatives of various ethnic groups in Terra, who had just begun to calm down, stunned once again.

Bahrain:"???"

He rubbed his eyes.

"Going to war... and you're bringing all this stuff?"

"Could it be a brand new weapon?"

He felt that none of the drinks he had consumed in the past few centuries had made him as intoxicated as what had happened tonight.

Kyle offered an explanation:

"I've seen these before in Firefly Valley; they're construction vehicles. But there are so many! Are they planning to build a city here?"

Will this torrent of steel ever end?

The arrival of the construction vehicles did not end until the early hours of the morning.

No one at the scene felt sleepy.

I'm just tired of looking at it.

Huge construction site spotlights were erected, illuminating an area several kilometers in front of the portal as bright as day.

The engines of the engineering vehicles roared to life, and under the command of the soldiers, they began working not far from the portal.

On the more distant positions, soldiers began to dismantle the makeshift defensive weapons to make way for the project.

Lin Mo took the engineering construction drawings from an engineer and laid them on the hood of a military off-road vehicle.

According to the plan, they were to dig a canal from the portal, 100 meters wide, 30 meters deep, and more than 3 kilometers long, leading directly to the shallow sea.

In this way, Earth's ships can sail directly into the sea through the portal.

Furthermore, cover plates will be laid on the canal to allow aircraft and vehicles to pass, forming a dual-use land and sea passage.

Lin Mo looked at the astonishing scale of the project on the blueprints, and then at the hundreds of excavators already in operation not far away.

How long would it take to dig this up?

He suddenly thought of something, rolled up the blueprints, and walked towards a Jiefang brand truck that had just finished unloading its cargo not far away.

He took the car keys from the driver and went straight to Elder Muyu.

"Elder Muyu, I need your help with something."

Elder Muyu was staring intently at the "iron lumps" in the distance when he heard this and came back to his senses.

Lin Mo handed over the blueprints, pointing to the planned waterway:

"I would like to ask the noble earth-element mage for help to dig out this river and push the excavated soil and rocks directly into the sea."

This way, we can also reclaim land from the sea. I'm a genius.

After saying that, Lin Mo pointed to the brand-new Jiefang truck in the distance and handed it the keys.

"As payment, how about we give you a transport vehicle?"

Elder Muyu's gaze fell on the truck, and his eyes instantly lit up.

How many gold coins is that worth!

He had a smile on his face and was being polite:

"Oh, Lord Lin Mo, this is just a small matter, how could I possibly accept this..."

He calmly took the keys and put them in his pocket.

After saying that, he turned around and gave a few instructions to the two elven mages behind him.

Lin Mo led the two earth-type spirits to the construction site.

"Stop! All vehicles, move out of the construction area!"

On the construction site, the engineering soldiers who had just arrived on the continent of Terra were full of enthusiasm after their initial shock at seeing the portal and the new world. The command to build a new home made them very motivated.

I was just about to get started, but before I even got to work, they told me to quit?

This order left them completely bewildered.

Although puzzled, military orders were absolute, and all engineering vehicles immediately stopped and retreated far away.

Under the watchful eyes of tens of thousands of Great Xia soldiers and various tribes of Terra, the two elves walked to the planned starting point of the river channel.

They raised their wooden staffs and began chanting ancient incantations.

hum-

The ground began to tremble slightly.

Then, to everyone's astonishment, the soil on the ground surface seemed to come alive.

They automatically converged into a yellowish-brown torrent, peeling away layer by layer, rolling towards the beach.

One layer, and another.

The riverbed is sinking and widening at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Those huge rocks were easily crushed into powder by earth magic and mixed with the soil before being pushed away.

This unscientific scene gave every soldier present a profound shock to their worldview.

"Holy crap..."

An engineer dropped his shovel with a clatter to the ground, but he didn't even notice.

"This is just too damn surreal!"
