Chapter 392: Technological combat

The Marauders kept attacking, making the small town’s casualty rise over a thousand. Just the allied army’s casualties was over five hundred people.

Paper cannot wrap fire. The news spread across the small town like a plague, instantly filling the small town with fear. These were well known hoodlums of the forest and not a single outer edge power could be a match for them. They were bold and savage by second nature and not to mention a newly established small town, they would even raid a caravan from a forest city.

There was nothing these lunatics didn’t dare do!

These were locusts that people abhorred, simply being the public enemies of the forest. However, the Marauders were very agile and they would leave after finishing a job, never staying in the same spot for too long. The Forest of Chaos was very big, it was impossible to chase them down.

With these many variables, the victims were at their wit’s end. Because of the Marauder’s savage reputation, there were some locals who pursued a peaceful life who would directly offer everything to the Marauders.

Oldman Small Town’s prosperity has surely amassed a sizeable amount of resources, so they had already attracted the attention of some large powers, but the Marauders were a step faster. The Marauders kept ambushing the small town’s troops which was a display for the small town. This kind of small power did not need to be attacked, the infamy of the Marauders would make them collapse internally, saving them quite a bit of effort.

“I propose we immediately close down the small town!”

“That’s right, we can negotiate with the Marauders!”

“Don’t they just want some things? We’ll just give it to them!”

At the Oldman Small Town meeting, the various tribe chiefs were shouting out their arguments. Almost everyone here agreed on not fighting the Marauders since the difference in strength was too big. The Marauders plundered all over the forest, it was not something a small town’s army of over ten thousand could fight.

Not to mention the Marauder soldiers were all airborne and moved very fast.

Oldman Small Town’s troops were very weak in terms of airborne combat, so they couldn’t form a team that could fight the Marauders. How could they deal with these savage Marauders? Moreover, the Marauders excelled in alchemy, so they could use the nearby water source, grass, and etc. to poison the beings living in the area. They would first seal Oldman Small Town and trap the army inside.

“Everyone please calm down.” Meng Qingwu stood up, “There is still a good point to this.”

Actually with Meng Qingwu discrete personality, the best way was to seal up the small town. Oldman Small Town was underground, so the airborne Marauders was not suited to attacking this kind of town.

As for sieging?

It was impossible!

With Miracle Commerce’s spatial transport technology, it was impossible for the small town to be sealed as all required materials could be transported in from outside. How long could the Marauders keep trapping them? Don’t forget, they were a notorious organization and did not dare stay in one place for too long. As long Miracle Commerce held out for a bit, the Marauders would not dare attack.

Although this plan was safe, it was still a last resort.

Oldman Small Town would suffer large losses and the unstable alliance might break apart.

The most important thing was that Meng Qingwu understood Chu Tian. Having Chu Tian turtle in was as hard as having the sun rise from the west. Miracle Commerce wanted to create a base in the forest. They could not avoid the Marauders because it was impossible to keep avoiding them, right?

“Everyone, no need to panic.” Meng Qingwu spoke to everyone in a calm voice, “Miracle Commerce has the advanced Source Energy Weapons, so those airborne Marauders do not have the superiority against out strong firepower. It isn’t as if we don’t have the ability to resist!”

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

The only variable now was Miracle Commerce.

No one was certain on just how strong Miracle Commerce was because Miracle Commerce always put on a very mysterious display. Their strong berserkers, the sharp Source Energy Weapons, and many things they couldn’t understand. Perhaps Miracle Commerce really could go against the Marauders.

A local stood up and said, “Even if Miracle Commerce can go against the Marauders, but our tribes cannot do the same. It the Marauders were to launch a counterattack in rage, our tribes would not be able to resist them.”

That’s right!

Everyone had a part of Oldman Small Town.

“Everyone can be assured, Miracle Commerce is resolute.” Meng Qingwu promised to the locals in a confident voice, “Miracle Commerce would not take the initiative to attack others, but if others come find us, we will not run. We will declare war on the Marauders.”

Declare war?

The Marauders were famous for being hard to deal with.

The giants in the forest could not even deal with these locusts, how could Miracle Commerce declare war on them?

“The Marauders are very agile, but they still leave behind a trail. Miracle Commerce will use the most advanced tracking technology to find the Marauders’ nest. At that time, everyone will unite together and trap the Marauders in a net. Only doing this will be able to shake the forest. Otherwise, once the Marauders leave, there will be another group that comes. No one wants to see this endless harassment!”

Miracle Commerce wanted to exterminate the Marauders?!

The locals had strange expression as they whispered with each other, finally deciding to watch from the side.

They would see what Miracle Commerce did before they said anything. It would be for the best if it was really like they described it, otherwise, once things looked bad, the various tribes would immediately pull back and avoid being involved in any misfortune.

Meng Qingwu first calmed the locals before heading to a secret room in Oldman Small Town.

There was many large mirrors in here and each one was seven-ten meters tall. The mirror surfaces were polished and very clear. A delicate looking woman and several workers were standing in front of a mirror discussing something.

“Caidie, how is it going over there?”

“Elder sister, look. This is the footage the airship took.”

Feng Caidie moved aside and a large mirror began to play some footage. This footage was clearly taken from high above in the airship. The entire forest looked like a large patch of green and because they were high up, they couldn’t see things clearly.

“Look over here!”

Meng Qingwu could see it clearly by enlarging it. There was a large bat flying at high speeds, passing over the forest at low altitudes. It moved around in several places before finally leaving in a direction.

Meng Qingwu gave a cold snort.

That’s right, it was them!”

Feng Caidie said with a face filled with admiration, “It’s lucky that elder sister deployed the monitor airship, otherwise it would be hard to find traces of them. But the monitor area is limited and we can only judge the direction the Marauders are, but we can’t actually find where they are specifically.”

Meng Qingwu had been in Southern State for a long time, spending every moment making preparations for Miracle Commerce. Meng Qingwu had spent a lot of energy manufacturing various kinds of airships. In the air above the Forest of Chaos, there were communication ships every few thousand miles. Meng Qingwu had also prepared monitor airships and fighting airships.

These new generation Miracle Commerce airship were not only very effective, they also had a layer of mirrors on them that could simulate various environments, allowing it to achieve camouflage and allowing it to not be recognized from the ground. The highest altitude was fifty thousand meters and most of the time it was parked at twenty-thirty thousand meters.

These airships had always been a Miracle Commerce secret. The people of Oldman Small Town did not know that there were several airships above them the whole time. The image being displayed on the mirror was the one sent from the monitor airship flying twenty thousand meters in the air.

Meng Qingwu gave the order, “Have the ‘2nd Heaven’s Eye’ begin a search and find the Marauders’ hiding spot. Then have the Heaven’s Punishment airship prepare to attack.”

Meng Qingwu had specially named these special use airships. The ones used for communication was called the “Heaven’s Net”, the ones used for investigation was called the “Heaven’s Eye”, and the ones used for attacks were called “Heaven’s Punishment”.

Miracle Commerce had six “Heaven’s Net” airships, two “Heaven’s Eye” airships, and one “Heaven’s Punishment” airship. The Heaven’s Eye and Heaven’s Punishment were ready to be deployed at any moment.

Feng Caidie immediately picked up a communication device, “Hey, hey, 2nd Heaven’s Eye, this is forest command. The vice chairman’s orders are to investigate in a southwest direction…..”

When this order had just been given.

The 2nd Heaven’s Eye airship that had been forty thousand meters up, waiting for orders, suddenly slowly sunk down and began moving forward. The cabin was automatically opened as countless eyes of cameras appeared, scanning the forest with a wide scope.

At the same time, the mirrors in the control room lit up. The entire forest reappeared on the image mirrors and all the images were being sent live.

The communication device received a voice from several tens of thousands of meters in the sky.

“2nd Heaven’s Eye is beginning to move!”

Another voice came from the communication device.

“Heaven’s Punishment is calling headquarters. All the weapons have been loaded, please provide orders!”

“Standby!”

“Yes!”

“These stupid locals!” Feng Caidie turned off the communication device as she revealed a look of excitement, “Do they know who they have annoyed?! We’ll let you see the power of technology today!”

On the other side.

Chu Tian and Meng Yingying were collecting the trolls’ poisoned arrows.

They also analyzed the poison on the arrow tips.

This was the troll’s secret poison recipe, but could this small thing be hidden from Chu Tian? Chu Tian easily broke the poison into its components and he gave the method for manufacturing the antidote to Yingying, “Immediately send this to the Southern Summer laboratory and alchemy guild. I’ll give them three days to make ten thousand antidote portions!”

“Yes!”

Meng Yingying took the formula and sent the information.

After this information was sent to the Southern Summer Country’s laboratories, the various Miracle Commerce alchemy workshops began their work. Large amounts of antidotes were being made before being sent through spatial transportation to Oldman Small Town.

The reason why the trolls made people worried.

The main reason was their high alchemy skills, especially their poison refining. If the soldiers took the antidote before the battle, the troll’s poison would lose their effect.

Without these poison arrows.

Could they fight the berserkers or the ogres?

Without these poison arrows.

Could they block the wild shots of the Source Energy Weapons?

In their dreams!
