Looting the life force of demons to forge a golden body Martial God-Chapter 387 - 375: Metal City Wall, Sea-Calming Divine Needle Suppresses Demon Suppression City! Stopped, Sudden Inspection, Trouble at the Front?!
Chapter 387: Chapter 375: Metal City Wall, Sea-Calming Divine Needle Suppresses Demon Suppression City! Stopped, Sudden Inspection, Trouble at the Front?!
Chu Feng and Li Jian chatted intermittently, and after another three hours of speeding, the military vehicle finally approached the city walls of the Eastern War Zone headquarters.
Looking up at the huge city wall, fifty meters high, built entirely of metal and shimmering with a cold light that even blocked the sunlight, Chu Feng couldn’t help but gape in awe.
It was a gigantic city wall made entirely of metal!
It loomed like a metal giant, perched on the vast plains, deterring the distant Demons!
"Magnificent, isn’t it? This line of defense can be called the everlasting front line, built entirely by our comrades from the Eastern War Zone.
Its name is Demon Suppression City!"
Li Jian, pointing at the towering metal wall, said with pride on his face:
"Before Demon Suppression City was established, facing the fierce Demons, our warriors could only exchange lives with the enemy using their flesh and blood, and often struggled to gain the upper hand.
"At the most intense moments of battle, even millions of Demon Clan broke through our line of defense, braving our warriors’ attacks and artillery from outside, and spilled out of the battlefield.
"They even once rampaged near Yan Capital!
"They slaughtered the civilians in Longhua recklessly; the scene was utterly devastating...
"Hundreds of thousands of civilians died under their sharp fangs and claws!
"But since our comrades in the Eastern War Zone overcame all odds and established Demon Suppression City amidst the storm of blood and wind, everything has completely changed!
"Since then, no matter how many forces the Demon Clan have assembled or how much they have sacrificed, they have never been able to cross this giant city by even a step.
"Demon Suppression City has become the Sea-Calming Divine Needle for our Human Race to resist the Demon Clan!"
"..."
Chu Feng, looking at the mottled grey-black stains that almost covered the metal city wall, recognized those as dried bloodstains.
Seeing this scene, he also couldn’t help but be deeply shocked.
He could imagine how horrific the scene must have been when the blood tide of the Demon Clan crashed against this metal colossal wall, when the ultimate physical power collided directly with the technological achievements of the Human Race...
The scene must have been utterly brutal!
That would truly be a bloody battlefield, and the city would become a gigantic meat grinder!
Suppressing tens of millions of demons within the Eastern War Zone!
However, he thought of some problems and hesitated to ask, "What if the Demon Clan bypasses this area and attacks the towns directly to the south?
"After all, not all Demons are fools, and there are cunning ones like the Feathered Fox."
Li Jian grinned and said, "Silly boy, as you said, not all Demons are fools, some are indeed smart.
"With Demon Suppression City rooted here, how dare they ignore it and simply run south!
"Forget about their rear? Really treat their lives as disposable?
"If they dare to bypass, we will dare to bite at their tail and chase them down!
"Outside the battlefield, our high-yield bombs are targeting this area...
"Once they reach the edge of the battlefield, that’s when they truly face annihilation."
At these words, Chu Feng blushed, embarrassedly smiling.
He seemed to have inadvertently exposed his ignorance.
Li Jian was right, if the Demon Clan really dared ignore Demon Suppression City and blindly charge forward, they would soon face a dead end with cannons in front and Human Race warriors fierce like wolves and tigers at their back.
That would indeed be a situation where neither heaven nor earth would respond!
...
While they were talking, the car continued along a narrow road, rapidly approaching the city walls of Demon Suppression City.
Just when the vehicle was forced to slow down due to an uneven road surface, a squad of ten Demon Extermination Army Soldiers suddenly emerged from a ditch by the roadside.
They donned yellow and green camouflage suits and rushed onto the highway, raising their weapons to stop a vehicle and called out deeply,
"Who goes there? Show your pass! The area ahead is a military zone, off-limits to unauthorized personnel!"
Li Jian pressed a button, lowered the window, and then raised both hands, holding two documents between his fingers.
One was a military ID, and the other was a military driving license.
He spoke loudly, "Don’t shoot, I am from the Far East Defense Line!"
At the same time, he said to Chu Feng, "Show them your documents and military orders."
Upon hearing this, Chu Feng quickly retrieved three red-covered military orders and his own documents from his Grotto Heaven under the guise of reaching into his clothes, then handed them out the window.
"..."
When Chu Feng reached back for the military orders, more than ten Demon Extermination Army soldiers immediately tensed up, warily watching Chu Feng, their weapons raised again, ready to act at any moment.
Their captain stepped forward unhurriedly, took the documents and military orders, and examined them carefully.
Only after verifying them did he signal for the soldiers to lower their weapons, smiled faintly at Chu Feng, and said,
"Captain Chu, I’ve long admired your reputation. Welcome to the heart of the Eastern War Zone, the safest fortress on the Demon Battlefield—Demon Suppression City!"
He handed back the military orders to Chu Feng, presented a small salute with a hint of apology, and requested, "Please, Captain Chu Feng, step out for a thorough check!
"It is my duty to conduct a thorough search, and I hope Captain Chu doesn’t take it personally."
His words were very polite, and it seemed that the phrase "I’ve long admired your reputation" was not just a compliment but sincere recognition of his name and achievements.
"..."
After taking back the military orders, Chu Feng cooperatively opened the car door, got out, raised his arms to show he wasn’t a threat, and said with a smile,
"Not at all, my brothers are simply loyal to their duties, which is perfectly justified!
"A true Longhua person would never refuse a check, all in the interest of the safety of Demon Suppression City."
The squad captain smiled and personally came forward to pat down Chu Feng, searching for prohibited items while responding,
"Thank you for your understanding!"
At that moment, Li Jian, who had also voluntarily stepped out for inspection, asked in a deep voice, "Brother, I want to ask.
"Isn’t the checkpoint supposed to be at the base of the city wall? Why has it been moved here, and why the sudden ambush?
"Has there been a problem at the front?"
The squad leader pulled out a black scanner from his belt, turned it on emitting a red light, and began scanning Chu Feng while responding,
"This question pertains to classified information, I can’t answer it. You can go to the Order Transmission Command after entering the city to inquire about the situation.
"The Order Transmission Command will decide whether to share the details based on your clearance level."
Noticing Li Jian’s thoughtful expression, the squad leader added softly, "I can only mention that the Demon Clan seems to have some movements.
"As for the specifics, I can’t disclose more."
After saying this, he particularly glanced at Chu Feng, his eyes complex, seemingly filled with a mix of respect.
"..."
Caught off guard by his gaze, Chu Feng looked at the squad’s other members and found their looks towards him seemed to hold a similar sentiment.
He then met the equally astonished Li Jian’s eyes.
The two exchanged looks and both realized, displaying wry smiles on their faces.
Chu Feng cursed inwardly, damn, could this damned Demon Clan movement be targeting him!
Could the Demon Clan’s activities have caused losses at the front, even affecting this place?
