Chapter 374 The Rule-Makers of Blue Star

Upon hearing that it was the United States, Chen Jianguo's pupils contracted.

They actually broke through the ground and started moving around so quickly?

"Keep shooting it down, prevent it from getting close to the World Tree!"

After giving the order, he thought for a moment, then turned and walked towards the communications station, saying in a deep voice:

"Connect to Commander Number Two."

A few seconds later, the screen lit up.

Number Two's face appears in the picture.

Chen Jianguo stood at attention and saluted.

"Reporting, sir, the United States has dispatched drones to reconnoiter the World Tree. Two have already been shot down, and more are likely to follow. Please provide instructions!"

Number Two frowned slightly.

"Intercept them with all your might."

"Ensuring the safety of the World Tree is paramount, at all costs."

He paused, his voice turning cold.

"If they don't behave, then we'll give them a hand and let them stay in the dungeon and enjoy their old age."

"You know what to do."

Chen Jianguo's heart skipped a beat when he saw the meaningful look in Number Two's eyes.

Enjoying a peaceful retirement?

The meaning of these four words couldn't be clearer.

Before hanging up, Number Two left a message.

"If anything happens to the World Tree, you'll be held responsible!"

Chen Jianguo stood ramrod straight.

"Yes!"

Communication is interrupted.

Chen Jianguo turned around, his eyes cold.

He looked at the monitor screen and saw that the World Tree had grown to over 500 meters tall.

The tree canopy is like a giant umbrella, supporting a vibrant ecosystem.

Within a radius of several hundred meters, the radiation levels are no longer harmful to the human body.

This tree is the hope of the Great Xia.

There is no room for error.

Chen Jianguo gave a stern order.

"Deploy armored units!"

"Establish a defensive line beneath the World Tree!"

"Attacks are permitted on anything that comes near the World Tree!"

The adjutant was stunned for a moment.

"Boss, we're not within the World Tree area, the surface radiation there..."

Chen Jianguo interrupted him.

"Each person will be issued a lightweight anti-radiation suit and will carry a small bottle of holy water."

"After reaching the World Tree, drink the holy water to remove the nuclear radiation."

"Establish a forward operating base."

The adjutant stood at attention and saluted, "Yes, sir!"

Ten minutes later.

The armored forces have completed their assembly.

Hundreds of military vehicles are ready to depart.

Some vehicles have laser emitters mounted on their roofs.

Some vehicles had missile launchers towed behind them.

There are also air defense systems, rocket artillery, and even engineering units.

The soldiers, on the other hand, were all dressed in radiation protection suits and carried small bottles of holy water for one person.

"Set off!"

The convoy roared as it entered the elevator.

Chen Jianguo stood in the command center, staring at the monitor screen.

The elevator slowly rose and reached the ground.

Under a hazy gray sky, the wasteland was deathly silent.

The convoy burst out of the elevator shaft and raced toward the World Tree.

Just then, the monitor exclaimed in surprise.

"Lord! More drones!"

"The number... several hundred!"

Chen Jianguo's face darkened.

There are so many weapons that can be carried on a drone. Without thinking about the consequences, he quickly said:

"Intercept immediately!"

Drones gathered around the World Tree and headed to intercept it.

Drones crashed one after another.

However, the enemy outnumbered them too much and had the ability to retaliate, so our side also suffered considerable losses.

"We can't stop them!"

The monitor's forehead was sweating.

"Some of them managed to break through!"

Chen Jianguo clenched his fists.

"Where are the armored units?"

"Report: We will arrive at the World Tree in five minutes!"

"Make them speed up! Intercept the enemy drone at all costs!"

"receive!"

Within the armored vehicle convoy, several vehicles equipped with lasers began to break away from the group and accelerate.

This is not easy; the ground is full of potholes, and even with acceleration, the speed is still only twenty or thirty kilometers per hour.

Chen Jianguo stared at the screen, his heart pounding like a drum.

Is it possible to make it in time?

In the footage, a swarm of drones, like locusts, rushes towards the World Tree.

Finally, just as the Eagle Kingdom's drones entered the World Tree's range, the laser weapons arrived simultaneously.

The vehicle-mounted laser transmitter starts instantly.

Several beams of light tore through the air, leaving trails on the nuclear dust and precisely hitting the drone.

Fires exploded in the sky as drones were shot down one after another.

At a critical moment, the enemy's desperate missile attempt was intercepted without serious damage.

Against the Silent Hunter Laser, which is specifically designed to combat drones, no matter how many drones come, they're just easy prey.

"Well played!"

Inside the command center, some people couldn't help but cheer.

Chen Jianguo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

If the World Tree is hit by the missiles carried by these drones, it will be destroyed!

Not only the World Tree, but also the inhabitants of the two underground cities in Antarctica will be severely affected.

He himself will face the most severe trial and punishment.

He couldn't help but feel a wave of fear.

To prevent similar incidents from happening again, he gave a stern order:

"Contact the armored forces commander."

"Launch missiles immediately to destroy the elevator shafts of the Eagle Nation's Freedom Underground City!"

The adjutant was stunned.

"Boss, this..."

This was clearly an act of war, which made him hesitate, given that a nuclear war had only recently broken out.

"Execute the command!"

Chen Jianguo's eyes were icy cold.

"I must prevent any future trouble!"

"yes!"

As the order was given, the three missile vehicles that had just arrived at the World Tree erected their launchers.

Flames erupted as three missiles ascended into the sky.

Trailing a long flame, it flew towards the territory of the Eagle Kingdom.

Chen Jianguo stared at the screen, expressionless.

This scene was also the last footage captured by the U.S. drone.

Chen Jianguo took a deep breath and turned to look at the correspondent.

"Contact the Lord of Tianxiong Underground City."

A dozen seconds later, the face of Lin Shigong, the Lord of Tianxiong City, appeared on the screen.

Chen Jianguo briefly explained what had just happened.

He contacted the other party at this moment because he wanted the two underground cities to work together to destroy the elevator shafts of all the underground cities in Antarctica.

This is solely to ensure the safety of the World Tree.

There are nearly a hundred underground cities of varying sizes in Antarctica, and each underground city's elevator shaft requires three missiles to completely destroy.

Relying solely on Tianyong City is far from enough, especially since a portion needs to be reserved for unforeseen circumstances.

Lin Shigong was stunned upon hearing Chen Jianguo's suggestion.

"This...this is a huge deal!"

Chen Jianguo resolutely said:

"I will report this to my superiors, and based on what Number Two just said, he will approve it."

"Alright! I'll go prepare right away!"

Chen Jianguo hung up the call and began the application process.

After he finished, he looked at his adjutant.

"Prepare for a second round of missiles immediately."

"Launch immediately after approval from above."

The adjutant stood at attention and saluted, "Yes, sir!"

Chen Jianguo turned around and stared at the giant tree emitting fluorescent light on the screen.

The pale green light was particularly dazzling in the wasteland.

That is the hope of the Great Xia Dynasty, and no one is allowed to touch it.

Even if it means burying all other dungeons underground!

The application was quickly approved by the higher authorities.

Chen Jianguo looked at his adjutant.

"How are the preparations going on in Tianxiong City?"

The adjutant immediately replied:

"Lord Lin has already deployed armored forces and is heading to the World Tree to jointly establish a defensive line. At the same time, the missile convoy is in position."

"it is good."

Chen Jianguo immediately gave the order.

"Immediately inform Tianxiong City to launch a second round of missiles to destroy all elevator shafts in all non-Daxia underground cities in Antarctica!"

"yes!"

Commands were passed down through the ranks.

On the ground, batches of armored vehicles have just arrived at the foot of the World Tree.

The missile convoy immediately erected rows of launchers.

The vehicle's computer locked onto the target, and the screen displayed the coordinates of nearly a hundred underground cities on the Antarctic continent.

"emission!"

boom!

Boom boom boom!

Missiles, trailing blazing plumes of flame, soared into the sky, piercing through the hazy nuclear dust, and hurtling off in all directions.

The firelight illuminated the wasteland, like another judgment after the apocalypse.

Compared to before, the Great Xia is now the one that sets the rules for Blue Star!
