The Snail People's army was deployed very quickly; in just over ten minutes, a large number of delivery pods had already reached the atmosphere outside Venus.
Prior to this, a flotilla of fifteen escort ships arrived ahead of time and began a whittle-down attack on the space shield on the surface of Venus.
Generally speaking, such a planetary shield that can cover the entire planet would consume a great deal of energy, and even if fully deployed, it wouldn't last long. However, the shield observed on the surface of Venus clearly exceeded the Snail People ' expectations.
Ever since it was observed, the Snail People's warships have been continuously monitoring the shield's status, but despite so many days of preparation, it still hasn't been turned off for even a moment.
This is a new technology, something they've never seen before.
It wasn't until the frigate's attack passed right through the so-called shield and blasted straight into the interior of Venus that they realized this thing wasn't a shield at all.
It only looks like one; it offers no protection whatsoever.
The Aozile chuckled. He'd been so well-prepared, thinking this indigenous civilization possessed shield technology, which might have made fighting them a bit more difficult. And this was it?
After the frigate passed straight through the so-called shield and entered the planet's interior, beginning a high-altitude carpet bombing, he finally confirmed that the shield was just a facade.
I don't know what it was made for, but it's probably just a decoration.
It doesn't matter. To him, as long as it's not a shield, it's just a piece of junk.
The original strategy needs to be adjusted.
The shield was fake. In space, the escort fleet circled around without encountering a single enemy. What does this mean?
This suggests that the entire planet is undefended in space, meaning that the indigenous civilizations on these planets may be less advanced than previously thought.
Deploying a space fleet to deal with such a civilization would be a complete waste of fuel.
Therefore, Aozile immediately issued an order for all the escort ships to switch to planetary combat mode, first to launch a barrage of fire on the entire planet's surface, and then send the cannon fodder from the drop pods down to finish them off.
The order was quickly carried out, and the three escort fleets that had already been deployed plunged into the interior of Venus, beginning to bombard the surface from all directions.
Meanwhile, a new round of Venus Showdown has just begun.
Although Divine Land has long been preparing for alien defenses, it has only been at the military level, and the general public has not received much wartime warning.
Although everyone is a cultivator, there are differences between cultivators, and ordinary people can only play a very limited role in such battles.
Therefore, the Venus Showdown will proceed as scheduled.
However, this round had only just begun. Both sides had gathered together to discuss the tactics for this battle when, just as they were still discussing, countless cannon fire and light-speed attacks rained down from the sky, covering the entire field.
Because the military is busy with matters concerning extraterrestrials, most of those participating in the Venus Showdown are ordinary people whose cultivation levels are generally not very high.
A barrage of artillery fire wiped out the entire enemy force.
The battles on dozens of battlefields ended instantly, and this commotion was simultaneously transmitted to the live broadcast on Earth Star.
Firepower cleanup is not uncommon for the Divine Land People, but such rapid and intense firepower, especially on Venus, is certainly questionable.
It's important to know that prior to this, Divine Land had not made any major alterations to Venus, nor had it established any existing military bases there.
So the question arises: where did this artillery fire come from?
However, the answer to the question was quickly revealed when the escort fleet flying overhead clearly appeared in the live broadcast footage.
Unseen spaceships, unseen styles, even unseen weapons.
Many people immediately realized that this thing must be an alien.
The bombing continued, wiping out large numbers of low-level combatants and causing the resurrection pool to operate non-stop, becoming crowded with players.
Many people were completely bewildered. Although they had a sixth sense warning them, they didn't have time to do anything before everything went black, and then they found themselves in the resurrection pool.
However, this was not the case in all areas. When the bombing reached the airspace above the battlegrounds of Late Qi Refining Stage cultivators, the situation began to change.
Although the ground bombing still landed successfully, the casualties were not high.
Cultivators who have reached this level have become much more aware of danger and have more methods to deal with it. The moment the bombing came, they activated their life-saving spells and dodged the attack.
Many of the more powerful cultivators, during the bombing, went against the current, unleashing their flight spells and rushing towards the escort ships.
Even in space, a frigate can reach great speeds, but inside a planet, due to the atmosphere, there is a speed limit. Exceeding this limit will cause irreversible damage to the hull.
Moreover, their boat was a substandard version, so it wasn't much faster.
Having just bombarded the duel area of two or three Late Qi Refining Stage cultivators, they were about to continue forward.
Suddenly, the last ship in the escort fleet staggered.
A dark shadow shot up from the ground like a meteorite, ruthlessly piercing the frigate right through it.
Mars immediately flew across the entire frigate, and various warning lights flashed incessantly.
Thump!
Despite the battle damage, the frigate could still fly with difficulty, but at that moment, a sound came from the top of the ship, and the entire ship seemed to be pressed down by something, and its flight path began to tilt towards the ground.
The Snail People inside the ship were desperately trying to lift the bow, their exoskeletons nearly deformed from the effort.
"Snap!"
The armor above the frigate's control room has cracked.
It was as if it had been ripped open, a crack as wide as a person suddenly appeared, bringing a powerful gust of wind into the interior of the spaceship.
A burly figure leaped through the crack, landing on the ground and leaving two deep footprints.
"I'd like to see what kind of monster dares to run wild on Venus."
The burly man clenched his fist, raised his hand, and threw a punch to the side. The force of the punch was so strong that it shattered a large number of electronic devices on that side.
This burly man was none other than an old acquaintance; he was Tie Xingzhen, one of the top four finalists of the first Martial Arts Tournament.
Although he hasn't advanced to the Foundation Establishment yet, his foundation in the Qi Refining stage is extremely solid, and he could Foundation Establishment at any time. In order to further improve his physical body, he has been diligently honing his skills and has not been in a hurry to advance his realm.
With a few punches, he wrecked the interior of the frigate, then took a step forward and grabbed the Snail People was frantically searching for weapons at the control panel.
The force of the step was so great that it tore the entire command center and hull of the frigate in two, sending it plummeting rapidly toward the ground.
This level of fall damage was nothing to Tie Xingzhen, but the guy he was holding wasn't as tough as him.
He pushed off with both feet, creating a powerful blast in the air to stop his fall, before finally returning to the ground with the thing in his hand.
At this moment, all the Venus Showdown had been temporarily suspended. When they saw Tie Xingzhen coming down with someone, everyone gathered around.
"What is this thing? It's covered in an iron shell."
The crowd gathered around the Snail People who had been caught red-handed, scrutinizing him closely, but couldn't figure out what was going on.
This Snail People has an iron shell on its exterior and a round shield on its head, making it look like someone wearing a spacesuit.
Tie Xingzhen reached out and grabbed, tearing the helmet off the Snail People's head.
"Holy crap!"
"Oh my god!"
What hook?
When the Snail People revealed his true form, it startled the onlookers.
What is this thing? It looks so bizarre!
