Teleportation Array's light converged, and the figures of Benjamin, Jack and Dickson appeared on a wide metal platform.
As soon as they came over, they felt a strong elemental fluctuation coming from the surroundings.
Benjamin looked up and found that the outside of the platform was not an ordinary building.
The metal wall in the distance extends to both sides along a certain arc, and tens of thousands of rune nodes are staggered, forming a system of astonishing scale. "Oh? It's Ship Plane. It's really nostalgic. It seems that I haven't touched Ship Plane for a long time." Benjamin was filled with emotion.
The so-called Ship Plane is to transform the complete plane into a mobile base capable of navigating in Endless Chaotic Void.
It can not only accommodate a large number of wizards, but also provide basic energy, space and life support. It can also be used as a temporary command center for Expeditionary Force when necessary.
However, since the appearance of Spirit Awakening Technique from Starfall Wizard, the originally abandoned plane has regained extremely high value.
The value of the abandoned plane has been rising, so the number of new Ship Plane manufactured is naturally much smaller.
However, Wizard Civilization has manufactured a large number of Ship Plane before, and this ship is probably the same as it was manufactured before.
Benjamin had just observed it for a moment when a group of wizards came towards us.
Led by three beings exuding powerful auras, they have obviously reached the level of Level 8 Wizard.
One of the tall, middle-aged wizards spoke first, "Welcome to Expeditionary Force, Benjamin wizards. I am Payton, responsible for the command of this combined army. These two are my colleagues, Alves and Meridian." "Wizard Peyton, Wizard Alvis, and Wizard Meridian, I have met three of them." Benjamin greeted the three of them respectively, "Benjamin, Felix should have already conveyed the specific mission to you."
There was no trace of Level 8 Wizard's arrogance on Peyton's face. "Of course, but I didn't expect that I could actually help the Benjamin wizard who created Ascension Force."
Alvis and Meridian next to them also had faces full of joy.
"Wizard Peyton is very polite." Benjamin smiled and nodded, "This time I mainly want to test the actual combat effect of the new version of Ascension Force. As for legion command, I am not good at it. I still have to rely on you all next."
"Don't worry."
Payton solemnly said, "Since you are here to test the technology, we will naturally try our best to cooperate. We are still responsible for the military command. You only need to observe the test situation and propose what needs to be verified at the appropriate time."
Alves also nodded in agreement. "We have received notification from Felix in advance and have also obtained the technical information of the new version. To be honest, being able to observe the new version of Ascension Force in action is something worth looking forward to."
Benjamin smiled slightly.
He did not continue to be modest, but took the opportunity to ask about the specific situation of the legion.
Payton immediately called up a combat map:
"This legion is a temporarily formed joint legion, consisting of Star Ring Federation and Crimson Court. Previously, we have been performing suppression missions on the edge of the frontal battlefield. The scale and combat effectiveness are relatively sufficient, and we are suitable for undertaking this test mission."
A large number of marks quickly appeared on the map, showing the legion's personnel configuration, power distribution and current location. "Currently, the legion has more than five million wizards, and all of them are above level six. In addition, there are a large number of auxiliary servant races and logistics forces responsible for maintaining Ship Plane, handling supplies, and assisting various combat units."
Benjamin scanned the map and couldn't help but click his tongue.
More than five million wizards of level six or above.
Even if most of them are only level six, they are already an extremely terrifying force.
After all, in normal times, a level six wizard is enough to start a Plane War.
And in this army, they are only the most basic part.
Benjamin continued to check and quickly noticed a question, "There is only one Ship Plane this time?"
Payton nodded. "Yes, the Legion currently only has this Ship Plane, which is enough for transportation. When it comes to actual battles, it still depends on the wizard's combat effectiveness."
Having said this, Payton thought for a moment, "As for the new version of Ascension Force technology, it has been released. According to my understanding of those little guys, it will take about a month to fully master it."
"It's very fast to master." Benjamin said with a smile.
Payton: "They are all elite after all."
On the other side, Jack is also observing the map, but he is obviously more concerned about the situation in the combat area than the size of the legion. "Teacher, what is our goal this time?"
Payton took advantage of the situation and zoomed in on the map. "The area we are going to this time is defended by the scale beast faction of the Behemoth Alliance."
There are a large number of Plane Cluster marks on the map, and some areas are marked as enemy-controlled areas.
Benjamin quickly remembered the war information he had received previously.
In this war, the enemy Wizard Civilization faced was not a simple race, but a joint force composed of multiple races similar to the Multi-Race Alliance.
Wizards call it the "Union of Behemoths."
Unlike most of the races in the Multi-Race Alliance, which have advanced civilizations, most members of the Behemoth Alliance have not developed mature advanced civilizations. Most of them are naturally powerful, possessing extremely amazing physical fitness and strength, and can reach a very high level of combat even without complicated training.
Of course, this doesn't mean they lack intelligence.
On the contrary, many giant beasts possess considerable intelligence and are able to communicate or formulate tactics.
But compared with ordinary civilizations, they are generally not keen on developing complex technical systems, and rarely establish highly organized civilization structures. For them, their powerful bodies and innate abilities are often enough to support most needs.
The scale beast faction is a relatively common type among giant beast alliances.
Strictly speaking, the scale beasts are not a race with a unified bloodline, but a factional division within the giant beast union. Any giant beast that has scales growing on its body surface and has this kind of body structure and fighting style as its main characteristics can be classified as one. Therefore, the differences between the scale beasts are also quite large.
"What is the fighting style of the Scale Beast faction?" Benjamin asked.
Payton immediately called up the relevant information, "On the whole, it is biased towards frontal suppression. Many scale beasts have extremely strong defensive capabilities, and some powerful individuals can also increase their attack power by accumulating power in a short period of time. However, their abilities are very different and cannot be completely evaluated according to unified standards." "This is just right."
Benjamin looked at the data and started thinking about the test plan.
Ascension Force The theoretical upper limit of the new version has been increased to ten times, but if you want to confirm the actual effect, you must face a complex enough battlefield environment. Scale beasts, which are good at defense but not good at offense, are the best targets for testing.
As expected of Felix, the arrangements are indeed quite good.
Seeing that Benjamin had no other questions, Payton continued, "If you are ready, then we can let the wizards in the legion complete basic learning before setting off to the target area."
Benjamin looked up at the time schedule.
"According to what you said before, doesn't it take another month for the whole army to master the new version of Ascension Force?"
"Yes." Peyton replied, "It is expected that within a month, most of the wizards participating in the war will be able to master the basic usage. However, it does not conflict with starting now."
He raised his hand and called up another battlefield report, "Currently, the planes in the main fighting areas between our two sides have been basically wiped out. Most of the plane nodes that could have been used for teleportation, assembly and supply no longer exist. We cannot directly reach the vicinity of the war zone through Teleportation Array like we did in the past."
Benjamin frowned slightly, and then understood. Although wizards also have the ability to create space teleportation nodes in the void, even the plane has been destroyed, and there is no expectation that those space teleportation nodes can exist for long.
So at this stage, on the front line, Wizard Civilization's legion can only rely on Ship Plane to cross Endless Chaotic Void.
"So, how long does it take for us to fly there?"
Payton nodded. "Based on the current route, it will take about a year to reach the target area. The legion can continue to familiarize themselves with Ascension Force during the voyage and complete combat deployment. By the time we arrive on the battlefield, basic training should have been completed."
Benjamin nodded. "In that case, let's set off as planned."
"Understood."
Payton immediately turned around and issued an order to the legion's command system:
"Notify all combat units to activate Ship Plane. Follow the scheduled route to the target area. During the voyage, basic training of Ascension Force will continue. All test teams will maintain smooth communication."
As the order came out, Ship Plane immediately became busy inside.
A large number of wizards began to enter their respective positions, and the personnel responsible for maintaining the space structure also activated the corresponding Magic Array.
The energy cycle within the plane adjusted rapidly, and the originally relatively static space began to fluctuate regularly.
Benjamin stood on the edge of the platform, watching the light curtain in front of him gradually switch to the navigation interface. He could feel that the huge Ship Plane under his feet was slowly changing its own spatial parameters, and through Magic Array, it transformed the external Chaotic Void Transformation into a channel that Stability could travel through.
Although it is said to be "flying", it essentially relies on the power of the entire world to continuously carry out short-distance teleportation in Endless Chaotic Void. Payton walked to Benjamin:
"In the next year, we will try our best to complete all basic training. Once we arrive on the battlefield, you will personally observe Ascension Force's performance." Benjamin nodded. "Then please."
After a while, the core Magic Array inside Ship Plane is fully started.
Boom!
The huge plane began to move forward.
The platform underfoot shook slightly, and then gradually returned to stability, which meant that the entire Ship Plane was already heading towards the target.
