Chapter 280

The floating fortress was a very good thing. It used the anti-gravity technology developed by the Titans themselves. The advantage was that it was not difficult, but the disadvantage was that as the main body's weight increased, the energy consumption would increase exponentially.

An ordinary Floating Fortress used for patrolling would exhaust the energy reserves of a pseudo-royal Titan for a day. The Titan Capital was even more terrifying. It was equivalent to 655 Floating Fortresses' energy reserves.

However, Adam could modify their technology. The maglev magic array used more advanced circuits and energy combustion methods, which could reduce the energy consumption by ten times for the same size.

As he worked, Adam asked, "Why didn't you go to the battlefield?"

King Sworth's real body had descended. Hearing this, he replied, "They said I was too weak and asked me to stay behind to protect the city and you."

"While you're at it?"

King Sworth admitted frankly, "Yes."

Adam did not mind. This was very normal. If he was the one bearing the pressure of the survival of his race, and his only hope was an outsider, he would do the same.

"In that case, you can help me out. Also, what does' too weak 'mean? " Adam commanded King Sworth without hesitation. His huge body and strength were the best movers. He could easily divide the city, throwing away the miscellaneous buildings and leaving only the essential ones.

"It means what it means. I'm the weakest of the royal family. I can deal with ten royal Gold-Eaters at most at once. They can deal with more than twenty."

This number sounded a little frightening. Previously, the Titans had 92 royal Gold-Eaters, and the Gold-Eaters could suppress them. According to the ratio, there were at least 6,555 Hyperdimensional individuals. However, when he thought of the Gold-Eaters' reproduction method, it felt very normal.

Anyway, it was very weak.

Adam finished the last stroke of the magic array and activated it. The simplified York City steadily rose into the air.

"We were born underground, and all the resources we rely on for survival come from underground. Apart from King's City, no other city is floating in the sky. Even King's City is only a symbol," King Swausie suddenly said as he looked at the city in the sky.

"Hmm?"

King Sworth was silent for a while and shook his head. "Nothing. What do you need me to do next?"

Homeland complex? Confusion about the future? Adam had no intention of getting to the bottom of the matter. That would be like rubbing salt on the wound. He simply said, "Take me to the nearest city."

Traveling was a must. Although teleportation was convenient, it was only by measuring the territory with their feet that they could plan a new batch of floating cities, which was impossible with teleportation.

After seventeen days of work, most of the cities were flying in the sky, operating according to the program Adam had written. A few cities that did not need to be moved were connected to the frontlines through teleportation portals, ensuring the convenience of troop mobilization and resource transportation.

After the inland cities were dealt with, they would have to gradually abandon some of the frontline fortresses. This was not a simple task. Ordering the soldiers to leave the bloody battlefield would be a huge blow to their morale. Once there was a problem, the pressure on the person giving the order would be unimaginable.

After Adam told King Sworthy what he meant, he was also in a difficult position. "You know, now is not the time. If it was before the war …"

"Could you have thought of so many enemies before the battle? So fast? Even if there was time, would you agree? "

The three consecutive questions made King Sworthy speechless, but he still insisted. "Now, it is really not possible."

Just as Adam was about to continue persuading him, a huge tremor came from the east. A mushroom cloud rose into the sky, and the shockwave formed a gust of wind that blew continuously. King Sworthy's body trembled.

"What happened?"

King Sworthy rushed into the sky, spitting flames behind him as he flew in the direction of the tremor. "Blade City has been destroyed, the defense line has been torn apart, and the seventh apostle brought an unknown number of royal Gold Devourers to break into the inland!"

Although he knew that the frontline fortresses would be destroyed, Adam did not expect it to come so quickly. The full-scale war had not even started for a month, and a city had already fallen.

Blade City was located near the center of the frontline. Its destruction meant that the entire frontline was split into two, cutting off the possibility of the north and south sides supporting and covering each other. This was a nail that was nailed into the most painful place.

Of course, because of the existence of the teleportation circle, this was not so serious, but the danger was not only that. If the Gold Devourers spread their branches and leaves in the inland, with their reproductive ability, they would quickly fill the inland. By then, Titan would be attacked from both sides, and the outcome would be self-evident.

"Can you beat the seventh apostle?" Adam asked on the way.

King Sworthy replied, "I was not his match 655 years ago, but I don't know now. You can leave first. In that kind of battle, there is not much difference whether you are there or not. Your safety is more important than mine now. "

"Don't show off. I won't die so easily. In the entire Titan Dimension, other than the Devourers, no other creature has the ability to kill me, but you …"

"Even if I can't beat him, I have to fight. Even if I die, I will drag the seventh apostle down with me. I cannot let him stay inland."

"After Blade City was destroyed, what happened to the stationed Titan?"

"None of the newborns survived, and the high-grade Titan did not suffer much loss, thanks to your improved defense shield and teleportation circle."

"Do you know how to command a battle?"

King Sworthy was a little confused. "I don't really understand, you …"

Adam sighed. "I don't know either, but I should be better than you. When the time comes, give the command to me. I will help you hold back the ordinary royal Gold Devourers. You just have to focus on the seventh apostle."

Adam moved the new floating city to the battlefield while saying, "I hope there won't be too many."

— — —

The closer they got to the front line, the stronger the unpleasant smell in the air. It smelled like sulfur, and the energy flowing in the space became more and more unstable. In front of them, there was a strange gas steaming up into the sky. The ground seemed to be polluted, and it was completely different from the inland and even the territory of the Gold Devourers.

"What's going on?"

"The seventh apostle's ability. Its tentacles are extremely hot and corrosive. The environment where it exists will become like this. In the previous all-out war, a royal was ambushed by it …"

Adam suddenly interrupted him and reported a set of coordinates. "855 meters underground, saturate the area!"

King Sworthy did not hesitate to do as he was told. A huge cannon with a diameter of 055 meters extended from his chest. Energy flowed out of his body and gathered in three seconds. Then, he fired at the designated location.

Wherever the Stronghold Destroyer Cannon went, everything was annihilated. The ores that made up the ground did not even have the chance to melt before they disappeared. Just then, a crimson energy pillar rushed out from the depths of the ground and collided with the Stronghold Destroyer Cannon.
