Chapter 1217: Chapter 1218: Blind with Eyes Wide Open
The first batch of scout teams investigating the situation was directly annihilated before the three major overlord-level forces at the rear could react.
By the ti they received word, the second batch of scout teams had already been attacked by the Locking Split Formation.
Similarly, in the blink of an eye, the second batch of scout teams t the sa fate, dying amidst explosions.
The information sent back by the scouts before their demise frightened everyone, causing the scout teams following behind and the fleet ready to advance to abruptly halt, not daring to fly forward.
At this mont, in their eyes, the distant dark Shengling Realm was no longer a realm to be at their rcy, but a death zone.
No one could have imagined that the first two batches of scout teams would perish so quickly.
Despite being scout teams, their strength was not weak; how could they be wiped out in an instant in direct combat?
At the rear, the three major overlord-level forces urgently commanded the armies, ordering the scout teams to hold their position.
The role of the scout teams is indeed to probe and investigate the situation.
But it is definitely not to court death.
The strange situation ahead made forcing the scout teams forward tantamount to sending them to their deaths.
In Beixuan Heaven and the Qingxuan Star Domain, or in Nantou Heaven and the Wei Boundary, the Huaxia people had already witnessed the Locking Split Formation.
As for the people of the Four Clans in Beixuan Heaven and the forces that later surrendered, they gasped in surprise when they saw the broadcast image on the Soul Vision Machine showing the scout teams of the three overlord-level forces being easily dealt with.
They were shocked by the mysterious ans of the Locking Split Formation.
On the other hand, they were also imnsely pleased because the stronger the Huaxia Empire beca, the greater the benefits for them.
Especially regarding Shengling Realm, they couldn’t wait for the Huaxia Empire to wipe out forces like Ming Chun Hall; otherwise, what was the point of their surrender?
On the other side, the three overlord-level forces also discovered the drawbacks of the Locking Split Formation.
After all, as overlord-level forces, even Yun Xinhua could see the weaknesses of the Locking Split Formation, so why couldn’t they?
“This Huaxia Empire’s ans do indeed have so peculiar aspects,” exclaid the Flowing Gold Clan Patriarch atop the Cloud Boat, taken aback by the sudden ergence of the Locking Split Formation.
However, although this Locking Split Formation is intriguing, it’s not without solutions in his eyes.
Assemble the Cloud Boat Fleet, which is exactly what they are doing now.
Sure enough, following the Flowing Gold Clan Patriarch’s instructions, the forward scout teams consolidated from a hundred smaller squads into one, rendering the Locking Split Formation ineffective.
When they reached the area of shattered Cloud Boat wreckage ahead, the tal blocks of the Locking Split Formation did not reappear, indicating their success.
“Clearly, the strange formation that traps and detonates the Cloud Boat Fleet only works on fleets of less than 50,000 Cloud Boats,” analyzed the Hude Clan Patriarch, pondering while stroking his chin upon receiving the report from the forward scout teams.
As the Hude Clan Patriarch was voicing his thoughts, a new change occurred upfront.
As the scout Cloud Boat Fleet continued forward, the tal blocks of the Locking Split Formation surged out from the void again.
However, after surrounding the Cloud Boat Fleet, these tal blocks did not explode to form the Locking Split Formation but instead dispersed, ultimately bursting apart under the astonished gaze of the scouts in the Cloud Boat Fleet.
Crack!
In an instant, from the shattered tal block fragnts, a crackling Thunder Grid erupted, enveloping the Cloud Boat Fleet.
However, the scouts on the Cloud Boat Fleet found that this grid’s power wasn’t as staggering as expected, as their Cloud Boats remained undamaged.
“Not good, we can’t transmit ssages back,” exclaid the scout leader on the Cloud Boat Fleet, terrified.
Moreover, a nearby scout remarked, “Captain, not only that, our Soul Consciousness can’t extend beyond, as if it’s completely isolated by this Thunder Grid.”
Hearing these words, the scout leader realized that since the opponent couldn’t destroy them with the strange tal blocks, they employed this thod to prevent them from transmitting ssages back.
This rendered the three overlord forces blind to the situation ahead without the scout teams’ information.
“What’s that!” Suddenly, a scout shouted in surprise.
On the other side, the scout team leader on this Cloud Boat looked up following the scout’s alarm, mouth agape, unable to speak from fright.
In the void far away, massive chanical beasts emitting a tallic sheen were sailing towards them in the darkness.
Their streamlined bodies, full of violent beauty, compared to his Cloud Boat made him feel that the sophisticated Cloud Boat beneath him was nothing but a toy in comparison.
If they collided directly, his Cloud Boat would surely be smashed to pieces.
The Huaxia Empire’s Void Warships were openly moving towards the three overlord forces in the scouts’ eyes.
Moreover, there was not a small number of these nacing, fully tallic warships, and direct collisions would likely shatter their Cloud Boat Fleet.
What scared them even more was the sight of a uniquely designed warship among the Void Warships.
It was a much larger ship, and instead of a ram at the front, it had a slowly rotating nacing drill head.
The scout leader thought, as that drill head’s rotation speed seed anything but slow, and if it charged at full speed…
He dared not imagine the scene that would ensue.
“The fleet at the rear probably has no idea such an enemy is approaching,” the scout leader suddenly realized.
If such a warship suddenly accelerated towards the rear fleet, how could they possibly defend against it?
“I hope the subsequent scout teams will detect it and relay the ssage back,” the scout leader thought to himself.
However, when he saw more tal blocks flying off the Void Warships into the darkness behind them, he knew it probably wouldn’t happen.
