Within the City of Evil Sages.
Lin Tian was leisurely eating fresh fruits and grain-fed beef.
"Life in this fortress is really quite comfortable."
Lin Tian sighed contentedly, basking in the artificial sunlight.
No wonder Bruce had such amazing forging skills and wisdom, yet preferred to stay in the fortress.
Being a little king was incredibly comfortable.
After all, he could sleep peacefully without worrying about the changing world outside.
At this time.
Leah slowly emerged from the shadow of the sun umbrella, "Boss, the empire has been arranged properly according to your requirements, currently there are no plague patients, and the elf kingdom is also fine."
For modern people like Lin Tian, there were too many ways to prevent plague.
First produce masks, then pay attention to isolation and protection, strengthen supervision of water and food.
It would be difficult for plague to spread into the Goblin Empire.
External plague prevention herbs like isatis root, mugwort, dandelion, etc.
Distributed daily throughout the empire, they could completely weather this apocalyptic disaster safely.
"Mm, don't go out during this period either, it would be quite troublesome if you really got infected."
Lin Tian reminded.
Although he had some understanding of plague prevention, he was completely clueless about treating plague.
After all, plague was prevalent in ancient times, and modern people understood very little about it.
Moreover, this set of prevention methods was just applicable to any infectious disease.
Leah squeezed onto Lin Tian's chair to sunbathe together, "Boss, you're amazing, actually making the four divine courts suffer, so impressive."
"Not yet, in a while we'll go out directly to slay gods."
Lin Tian said calmly.
He didn't mind lying on Leah at all, since she was soft and fragrant.
Leah, after gaining shadow power, had gained several degrees of evil beauty.
The atmosphere between them gradually became somewhat ambiguous.
Leah couldn't help saying, "Boss, I want..."
Lin Tian didn't resist either, "I understand..."
Suddenly!
A figure leaped directly from the palace building below to the rooftop.
The one-eyed owl said urgently, "Stop sunbathing, those guys are challenging us outside the fortress again! Hm? Leah?"
"Elizabeth..."
Leah hurriedly got up and wiped the corner of her mouth, somewhat shy.
Seeing this, the one-eyed owl put her hands on her hips in displeasure, "Really now, Lin Tian consumed so much splitting divine power for us, and you're wasting his life force! What if those guys break in later? Are you confident you can handle them?"
"I... I didn't waste any, I never waste any each time..."
Leah blushed to her neck, stammering.
The one-eyed owl suddenly felt something was wrong, and suddenly understood, saying in shock, "You couldn't possibly!"
"Alright, if those guys dare come then let's play with them, the ammunition is still very abundant anyway!"
Lin Tian said excitedly.
He headed directly toward the inner wall of the fortress.
Leaving the one-eyed owl in place smacking her lips, "Abundant my ass, when I looked for you two days ago you said there was no ammunition left?"
...
Outside the fortress.
Zeus and others still stood at a safe distance of several hundred meters.
"We'll attack directly from the top, it's relatively more vulnerable there after my last attack. You just need to block as many cannon attacks for us as possible. Whether you can survive depends entirely on your strength."
Hearing this.
The gods looked at those densely packed cannon muzzles, "This, can it really work?"
No matter how strong shields were, they had limits.
No one was confident they could survive under attacks from so many cannon muzzles.
At this point, Odin also said, "So what if we die? You can all be resurrected anyway. If we win this time, your benefits will definitely be enormous! Don't forget, this is a dwarf fortress! Inside are the forging techniques for god-slaying level equipment!"
"Gulp!"
Everyone's expressions trembled.
Right, inside were the techniques for forging god-slaying level equipment.
If they won, the harvest would definitely be very rich.
"Then what are you all standing around for? Go!"
Zeus said impatiently, looking coldly at everyone.
At this time.
Horus mustered courage to step forward, high-temperature shield deployed, "As a god king, let me go first!"
He charged directly in!
The high-temperature shield could block ordinary physical cannonballs and elemental cannonballs.
So he only needed to dodge magic cannonball attacks.
"Boom!"
Immediately, countless densely packed cannon muzzles aimed at him and began firing!
Horus was a god king after all, and this time with sufficient preparation, he could actually bathe in the hail of bullets!
Under focused conditions, he still dodged a large number of magic cannonballs.
Even if a few hit him, it didn't matter.
A god king's defensive power was still very strong.
Last time, he was almost killed after being hit by over a thousand magic cannons at once.
"This guy finally has some use. Do I need to say it a second time?!"
Zeus urged.
He had to let them go in first to attract fire before making his move.
Hearing this.
Poseidon sighed and gestured to Athena, "Let's go! There's no opportunity left."
"Swoosh!"
He immediately rode towering waves, surfing on the waves!
The giant waves could similarly block many cannonball attacks, but had little effect against lightning, poison, ice and other elemental cannons.
Then Hades entered undead state and also rushed into the attack range.
Similar to Horus, in undead state nothing except magic cannons could harm him.
However, he still had to guard against holy attacks.
If hit by those in undead state, he'd die instantly.
Undead had almost 0 defense against holy attacks.
Thor of the Æsir clan carried his great hammer and began charging.
His thunder hammer could block all cannonball attacks, because the surrounding lightning was formed by magic power and could block magic cannons.
The main body was substantial and could block other cannonballs.
But this consumed magic power and stamina extremely quickly.
"Roar!"
Frost giant Loki roared and followed.
Frost giants had powerful physiques with terrifying defense and strength.
But had lower resistance to fire elemental cannonballs.
One after another, other deities had no choice but to follow.
After Athena also reluctantly entered the cannon fire.
Zeus showed a satisfied smile, "Very good, Odin, Hela, it's our turn!"
"Swoosh!"
The three immediately transformed into three streams of light soaring into the sky!!
Zeus held his thunder spear, his entire body wrapped in purple lightning, standing majestically in the air!
Odin held his eternal spear, brilliant glassy light shining on his battle armor! The might of the Nine Realms War God poured down!!
Hela's body wove together death aura and freezing aura, eerie and cold, suffocating!
The three locked onto the top of the fortress and charged directly!
Inside the fortress.
Lin Tian's expression was cold, "So they're starting to fight for their lives with me? Interesting..."
"Should we move the main cannons up there?!"
Luo Ai'er said anxiously.
But Lin Tian shook his head, "No need, switch to flexible and agile light cannons for control and firing speed! Use diamond fragment cannonballs for all ammunition!"
Against these guys, main cannons couldn't possibly hit with their firing speed.
Only by using diamond fragments to continuously wear them down would they retreat in pain.
Magic cannons and elemental cannons weren't very effective.
Very hard to hit them, but the diamond fragments that scattered out were different - large range, high speed, much better effect.
"Luo Ai'er! Xiya, Phoenix! Do you feel fear! Hahaha!"
Zeus's triumphant voice echoed deafeningly!
"Rumble!"
The three's powerful force directly smashed into the fortress top, shattering all the cannon platforms in that area from the impact!
Perfect for replacing them all with light cannons.
The powerful impact made the entire fortress shake, even sinking several centimeters!
This fortress was heavier and larger than ten mountains combined!
Lin Tian's eyes narrowed slightly, "Three god kings, their strength really is something. Light cannon units prepare for replacement at any time! Continuous attacks! Everyone else beat them to death!"
Because the aftershocks from these three god kings' attacks could directly shatter the cannon platforms extending outward.
They had to keep replacing them.
On top.
Zeus looked at the wall and couldn't help sighing, "It's actually material second only to steel-ancient alloy. No wonder my full-power strike last time didn't break through."
Steel-ancient armor might be shattered.
But this alloy was several meters thick, naturally able to withstand it.
"Let's do it!"
Odin said seriously, continuously blocking diamond fragments.
Now the gods were continuously blocking and attracting cannon muzzles from other positions.
Otherwise they would all transfer to the top.
These cannon platforms could all slide freely, not fixed positions.
"Pierce! Devouring Spear!!!"
Odin gripped the Eternal Spear with both hands and stabbed down fiercely at the fortress!
The condensed magic array cracked, terrifying glassy magic power surged and flowed!
He also used full power for this strike.
However, it only left a groove about ten centimeters deep in the fortress wall.
This was the Eternal Spear, a charged attack with power to shatter everything!
Odin couldn't believe it, "Something's wrong! This wall has been heavily enchanted! It must be so! It weakens magic attacks!"
Zeus and Hela were stunned, then understood.
"No wonder! This Bruce is truly incredible!"
Even Zeus was shocked.
A mere fortress had stumped three god kings.
Hela then used death power and ice power to condense two black ice swords, stabbing fiercely at the fortress, "Then use pure force to shatter it!"
"Crack!"
After several consecutive attacks, the ice swords broke, only leaving two-centimeter-deep grooves in the wall.
"Fine, let's do it! You all continue attracting fire!!"
Zeus also began attacking, clanging and banging, sparks flying!
The deafening metallic collision sounds twisted space each time they rang out!
Also shattered all the cannon platforms in the top area!
Inside the fortress.
A group of dwarves and goblins worked frantically, continuously replacing the top cannon platforms.
Often before attacking a few times, they would all be shattered.
Lin Tian frowned, "Looks like we can only have distant cannon platforms attack. At this rate the light cannons will all be shattered quickly."
He had miscalculated.
The destruction speed was too fast.
There simply weren't that many light cannons to replace, they had to have cannon platforms from farther positions attack.
"But what about the other gods? If we attack the top position, the other gods will take the opportunity to destroy cannon platforms."
Luo Ai'er said helplessly.
The situation was not optimistic.
Lin Tian's eyes flashed with sinister light, "Then let's deal with the annoying flies first. Big sister, Alice, you two come with me to get weapons and magical tools. Everyone else continue attacking!"
He had already learned from Bill that only Georgia, Osius, and Gosha's weapons and magical tools weren't finished forging.
Everyone else's were complete.
So Lin Tian planned to abandon their three sets of equipment and directly temper and activate the currently completed ones.
Hearing this, the one-eyed owl and Alice were both stunned.
But they followed without asking questions.
Arriving at the forging area.
The harsh hammering sounds continued, along with surging magic power and burning furnace sounds.
Bill was still hammering weapons, while Kamon and others helped with enchanting.
Each piece of equipment had dozens of enchantment processes, very time-consuming.
"Master Bill, stop forging weapons and magical tools for Georgia, Osius, and Gosha for now. Help temper ours first!"
Lin Tian's voice suddenly rang out, interrupting the scene that seemed frozen like a static image.
Bill came to his senses, "Ah? Your Majesty, then their weapons and magical tools would be delayed at least two months before tempering."
Lin Tian waved his hand with a serious expression, "The situation is urgent. We need to go out and fight the gods. Hurry and temper these two's first."
He pointed at the one-eyed owl and Alice.
Because Lin Tian was quite used to using the Ten Thousand Wheel Blade, he didn't forge another weapon.
But he still had Bill help forge a magical tool.
"Then alright. Kamon, you few come help! Put all weapons and magical tools into the tempering pool of the Craftsman God's forging platform!"
Bill instructed.
Several people immediately began working busily.
Not daring to slack off.
They were very clear about how severe the outside situation was - they were currently at war with the major divine courts.
As streams of light flashed.
Bill quickly took out a magical tool, "Your Majesty Lin Tian, this is the magical tool forged according to your requirements. Try it first to see if there are any problems."
[Gods' Colosseum - God-Slaying Level: Select an enemy to forcibly pull into a colosseum. The opponent must kill the user within the colosseum to escape, while the user will immediately resurrect in reality if they die in the colosseum.]
This magical tool could greatly improve fault tolerance.
Even if unable to defeat the enemy, it could trap a strong opponent, buying combat space for the team.
"No need to test it. What about theirs? Just take them out."
Lin Tian urged.
Time was very tight now. If the fortress top was destroyed, the loss would be huge.
Hearing this, Bill hurriedly complied.
Among the many weapons and magical tools, he found the equipment forged for the one-eyed owl and Alice.
[Eternal Shield-Axe - God-Slaying Level: Power doubles with increased combat time, maximum ten times, and can serve as a shield to block attacks. Defense also increases with combat time.
When killing an enemy, permanently increases the user's strength attribute, maximum limit of ten thousand]
Because the one-eyed owl had enough divine power, attacks had built-in long-range effects.
Bill worked through the night to modify the enchantment abilities, turning the shield-axe into damage-boosting effects.
