Chapter 1127

"And since the skeletons are fine, the captain will be fine as well. Let's just wait; I imagine the captain should be back soon."

Yuzhu and the other two felt that Meng Gang's words made sense and responded, "Then we'll wait for him to return."

After the blockade was resolved, the activity in the space became increasingly lively.

Bubbles appeared from time to time, turning into channels of various sizes.

Some small channels were impossible for people to pass through.

However, large channels that could accommodate people and even armies would also appear occasionally.

This change was also noticed by people in the outside world.

On the third day, more teams rushed in.

This time, it wasn't just the Human Race and demons who entered.

Teams from the Golden Eagle Race, Demon Race, Ox Demon Race, and the Human Race all rushed in.

Not only were there more races, but their numbers far exceeded the previous time.

The Demon Race alone had tens of thousands of people.

Warships stayed menacingly in the starry sky, their aura imposing.

The Golden Eagle Race also brought over ten thousand people, and above their team was a massive Golden Eagle over a thousand kilometers long.

That was their totem and also their war weapon.

The Human Race was equally undaunted, with two ten-thousand-man phalanxes standing neatly in the starry sky, prepared for a major battle.

The Human Race also had warships stationed in the starry sky.

The various factions stood in a standoff against each other in the azure starry sky; no one made the first move, but the atmosphere became incredibly heavy.

Meng Gang and the others happened to be in the middle of several teams, as if they were surrounded.

Yuzhu asked in a low voice with a grim expression, "What should we do?"

Meng Gang was also feeling quite somber; although the skeletons were strong, the other side had far more people.

The Golden Eagle Race and the Demon Race were both enemies of the Human Race. If they were to attack at the same time, it was hard to say if the skeletons could hold them off.

They had now become the center point, and their own actions could very likely become the trigger; once the battle started, the few of them would definitely be the first to bear the brunt.

Just as they were hesitating, starlight suddenly appeared in the distance.

A human warship flew in from the depths of the starry sky.

Although human warships looked similar, they all had identification numbers on them.

Meng Gang recognized at a glance that this warship was the one led by Ji Hongshen.

(Zhao Ma Hao)

Ji Hongshen was back…

In that case, would Lin Moyu be among them as well?

At that moment, the surrounding Skeleton Divine Generals turned their heads in unison to look toward the warship.

This scene made Meng Gang and the other two realize that Lin Moyu was back.

The warship came to a halt in the starry sky, and Lin Moyu was the first to fly out from it.

Meng Gang and the others immediately breathed a sigh of relief; Lin Moyu was fine, he really had returned.

Following Lin Moyu, the human soldiers from the warship flew out one after another, quickly forming a battle array and joining the ranks of the standoff.

With an additional ten-thousand-man squad, the Human Race's strength significantly increased.

At this time, even if the Demon Race and Golden Eagle Race joined forces, the Human Race would not be afraid.

Ji Hongshen, in particular, knew Lin Moyu's combat power.

In front of Lin Moyu, the Demon Race and Golden Eagle Race before them were nothing at all.

Lin Moyu came straight to Meng Gang and the others, his gaze sweeping over them. "Good, we should head back."

Meng Gang immediately saluted and replied, "Understood."

Lin Moyu was their captain; his orders were military orders.

Chapter 1223: From Looking Up to Looking Down

Meng Gang and the others followed Lin Moyu's orders and quickly retreated.

Throughout the process, although the Demon Race and Golden Eagle Race made some movements, they ultimately did not take action.

Before the situation was clear, no one would act lightly.

The strength of the three sides was not far apart; if they truly fought, it would inevitably result in mutual destruction.

Neither the Demon Race nor the Golden Eagle Race made the first move, as neither wanted the other to gain an advantage.

As for the Ox Demon Race, they were even less likely to act.

They had always been in a neutral zone, and their relationships with the three parties could only be considered ordinary—neither good nor bad.

After Meng Gang and the others returned, the human forces quickly retreated and contracted.

After waiting for several hours until a giant channel appeared, the team left the area ruled by the Shuojin Source Star.

During this time, Yuzhu asked curiously, "Captain, is the mission complete?"

Lin Moyu simply replied, "It's complete."

Yuzhu's eyes lit up. "Really? You found someone alive?"

"I will describe the specific details after we return. You can just wait for the news then."

Regarding what happened inside, some things could be said, while others could not.

After weighing his options, Lin Moyu decided he needed to communicate with someone at least at the level of a Legion Commander; even an Elder would not be qualified enough.

Yuzhu wanted to press further, but was interrupted by Meng Gang. "It's good that the mission is complete."

He gave Yuzhu a meaningful look, signaling her not to ask any more questions.

As a veteran of the military, he naturally knew that even if such things were to be asked, it should be done in private.

With so many eyes and ears around now, the less said, the better.

Even when using soul transmission, the military was not without means of monitoring.

The starry sky before them began to shift; the azure starry sky gradually faded, replaced by a sky full of stars and deep darkness.

The familiar aura of the Great World spread through their bodies; they had left the world shrouded in shuo gold and returned to the original Great World.

Wafting toward them was the scent of a major battle.

Wreckage of warships floated everywhere in the sky, and countless soldiers were rushing back and forth, busily cleaning up the battlefield.

Every piece of material from a warship was precious; even if destroyed, they could be melted down and reforged, and must not be wasted.

Tens of millions of kilometers away, the demons seemed to be doing something similar.

Lin Moyu took it all in; just as he had expected, a battle had indeed broken out here, and on a significant scale.

Looking at the wreckage, one could tell that the Human Race had lost at least ten warships.

Each warship could accommodate a ten-thousand-man squad, so the number of troops involved in the war would have to be multiplied several times over.

It was likely a battle on a million-man scale.

A million-man scale was already the total military strength of a Starry Sky Fortress.

The Human Race's ten Starry Sky Fortresses typically had a total garrison of around ten million.

Of course, the number of troops in the Human Race was far more than that, more than ten times as many.

If a true war were to begin, the Human Race could increase its troops by tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, in a short period.

This was the confidence of the Human Race, the confidence of being a powerful race in the Great World.

With his white robes fluttering, his old acquaintance Li Yuanbai flew over.

He had received the news immediately and knew that Lin Moyu was back.

"Greetings, Senior," Lin Moyu took the initiative to say hello.

Li Yuanbai gave an 'en' and said with a chuckle, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back. Quick, the Lord is waiting for you."

Lin Moyu nodded and glanced back at Meng Gang, Yuzhu, Wang Zhenghao, and Rong Jie.

His meaning was that these four were his teammates, and if there was anything, they should go together.

Li Yuanbai naturally understood and immediately said, "Go together. Since your squad completed the mission this time, you will all be rewarded."

Lin Moyu walked side-by-side with Li Yuanbai, while Meng Gang and the other three followed behind, their expressions somewhat strange.

In truth, during this mission, the four of them had been burdens.

Not only had they not been of any help, but they had also caused Lin Moyu to be distracted by them.

The mission was also completed by Lin Moyu alone; it would actually be normal if they weren't given any rewards.

Li Yuanbai led them through the defensive line formed by warships and arrived before a circular fortress.

This fortress was not large, not much bigger than a warship, but it exuded a suffocating pressure.

Lin Moyu sensed the scent of blood from the fortress and knew that it had once traversed the battlefield, been stained with blood, and killed countless enemies.

Meng Gang and the others did not have this sensation; when they saw the fortress, they only felt as if a heavy stone had been placed on them, and they unconsciously felt some heart palpitations.

Meng Gang's face changed slightly as he recognized the fortress and said in a low voice, "War God Fortress."

This was the first time Yuzhu had seen a War God Fortress, but she had heard of its great name and immediately asked, "Is this the War God Fortress refined by the Lord War God himself?"

Meng Gang nodded. "That's right."

Yuzhu's eyes shone with longing as she murmured, "I didn't expect that I would actually get to see a War God Fortress."

There was only one person who could be called the War God: Xiao Zhantian.

Listening to their conversation, Lin Moyu knew that this fortress came from the hands of the War God Xiao Zhantian, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of solemn respect.

But he also felt it was strange, as Xiao Zhantian's era was very distant from the present.

If it truly had been refined by Xiao Zhantian, it would inevitably exude a vast and ancient aura.

Although this War God Fortress had some years on it, it was far from being considered ancient.

Li Yuanbai also heard their words, turned his head, and said with a smile, "This is indeed a War God Fortress, but it is not one of the few refined by the Lord War God himself."

Yuzhu immediately asked, "So it's a replica based on the real War God Fortress?"

Li Yuanbai nodded with a smile. "Correct. Although it is a replica, it still possesses considerable power. Of course, it cannot be compared to those refined by the Lord War God."

A flash of disappointment crossed Yuzhu's eyes, but she quickly showed a smile again. "It's still good to see a replica. My ancestor said that the War God Fortress is an extremely formidable war weapon and is not easily seen."

Li Yuanbai nodded with a smile. "Indeed."

His attitude was surprisingly good, with no airs at all.

After all, he was an Elder and a powerhouse of the God Venerable Realm.

Normally, such a person would not be so approachable.

Meng Gang was not stupid and knew that Li Yuanbai was likely doing this for Lin Moyu's sake; otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered to say a single word of nonsense to a small character like himself.

Li Yuanbai led everyone into the War God Fortress and arrived before a building at the very top.

Lin Moyu examined the building; its pitch-black walls and sharp-edged design were very much in the military style.

There were no decorations, but there were many traces left by the fires of war.

Lin Moyu couldn't tell what material was used.

However, he was certain that he definitely didn't have the ability to leave any marks on it.

A War God Fortress, even if it was just a replica, possessed extremely strong combat power, at least no weaker than a God Venerable.

Even if he were to risk his life to raise his strength to God King Rank 9, there would still be an insurmountable chasm between him and a God Venerable.

However, the War God Fortress before him had a world of difference when compared to the ancient castle in that Mysterious Manor.
