Chapter 79 - Chapter 79 Battlefield Panorama

The intelligent assistant switched to the [War System] at this moment, accurately determining the current location and mission of each vehicle and issuing precise notifications.

The convoy, poised for a direct confrontation with the horde of vampire mosquito monsters, received a countdown to opening fire.

Convoys traveling on either side, which might be drawn into the battle, were notified to prepare for combat.

Even convoys far from the main battleground received notifications that a battle was about to break out at a certain coordinate.

If it weren't for the fact that other vehicles have such low AI levels that they can't receive overly complex video maps, etc.

It's not impossible for all the leaders' cars to share a field of vision.

Even so, the intermediate AI played a huge role in this battle.

All the leader vehicles and elite vehicles carrying out important missions can learn about the distant battle situation through text descriptions while in their own vehicles.

Including Mu Zhong and Mu Tangge, who, as important central commanders, were among the first to grasp all the intelligence.

Of course.

No intelligence was as detailed as that held by Wei Huan.

After all, he had sent out his entire army of ghost crows.

When the countdown reached ten seconds, Mu Tang, who was participating in a major battle for the first time and was now involved in a battle of this level, glanced at Wei Huan with a bit of nervousness.

They saw their tank commander standing at the command post, back straight and head held high, his eyes looking at the combat screen ahead with an extremely calm demeanor.

There was even a hint of relaxation.

This attitude surprised him.

As far as he knew, Wei Huan was just an ordinary freshman before entering the Challenge World.

Even though her father relied on the Gong Group to build a first-class racing team.

But no matter how you look at his experience, he is not the kind of leader who could remain calm and composed in the face of danger, holding the lives of tens of thousands of people in his hands on such a battlefield.

But ironically, this one glance calmed Mu's fearful heart considerably.

The composure and calmness of a true leader also reassured him.

That's right, this was just the initial, smallest engagement. With the commander's abilities, he had already experienced much larger battles.

In terms of insight and composure, I am far inferior.

So just stay calm and wait for orders.

In such a war, whether it's growing together or achieving legendary status in one battle, it's all what he hopes for—to create a glorious future with an outstanding leader.

After a deep look, Brother Mu looked away, no longer glancing around, and focused solely on his work.

But what he didn't see was that the moment he looked away, a green flame suddenly ignited in Wei Huan's left eye.

He gained a global perspective not only through the Ghost Crow.

At this moment, he further ignited the sharing of vision with the Lord of the Demon Eye.

As his field of vision opened up, he was able to see, as if he were personally there, the first encounter between the convoy he led and the monster in this assessment.

This is a hill no more than 50 meters high, and its length is about one kilometer long.

With the highest point of the hill as the boundary, one side is covered with a dense array of white vehicles, leaving no grass growing in its wake, stretching for over a kilometer.

On the other side, in the dense forest, a swarm of blood-sucking mosquitoes, each half a meter in size, had already sensed the movement of the human army and were nimbly and rapidly moving towards the convoy.

Neither side showed any intention of yielding.

The wandering monsters have no fear; their purpose in existence is to attack every vehicle and human they see.

Humans, in order to win and survive, must tread over their broken bodies and paint the path red with their blood!

"Buzz buzz buzz—"

"Three, one, one! Launch!!"

The two sides, under the command of the intelligent AI, ignited a battle that was shrouded in crimson smoke.

The alloy arrow tower transformed into the sharpest weapon, with countless arrows raining down from the sky.

"Pfft!"

"Pfft!"

"Pfft!"

The needle pierces the mosquito from the front, penetrating its throat and stomach, and finally emerges from its tail hook, pinning it firmly to the ground.

The notorious bloodsucking mosquitoes on the third-class highway are a swarm of wandering monsters that can bring down any single vehicle that encounters them.

They were almost wiped out in just one round of concentrated fire from the convoy.

Looking at those ugly mosquitoes, strung together like roasted worms, dead and scattered.

A cheer erupted from the convoy.

"That feels so good!!"

"One round of concentrated fire will wipe them out!!"

"My God!! This is the power of the group!!"

"Hahaha! Take your grandpa's big gun!! I'll fuck you to death!! I'll fuck you to death!!"

A small victory brought a different atmosphere, and the chat room was filled with congratulatory messages.

The remaining dozen or so blood-sucking mosquitoes that had escaped the net were completely wiped out in the first round of concentrated fire without even making a splash.

Without a moment's pause, the convoy surged forward like a crushed peanut, relentlessly pushing forward.

However, this time, the atmosphere in the convoy in this area became much more excited and aggressive.

Some cars even planned to bypass the lead car and drive ahead.

Some people are even making outrageous statements in the chat room.

[Damn, I'm late! Are there any mosquitoes I can slay? My sentry tower hasn't been sharpened since it reached level three, so today I'm going to unleash a mosquito blood sacrifice!!]

[A concentrated barrage of fire from the battlefield is quite effective; a small group of monsters is clearly not enough to kill them all. Next time, let's try something bigger.]

[Haha, with our firepower, even if we came to a large tribe, we'd wipe it out in three rounds!!]

The chat room was buzzing with excitement as everyone discussed the battle that had just taken place.

Wei Huan, however, paid no attention; his gaze had already shifted to the other side.

Another group of wandering monsters has been discovered.

Around 40 ghost-faced spiders spun a large, eerie web in the forest ahead, making the vast forest dark and distorted.

Half a minute earlier, Ghost Crow had already reported this situation to Wei Huan.

The Demon Eye Monarch was flying relatively slowly and was still on its way, so Wei Huan's vision remained closed.

However, the reconnaissance vehicles that were dispatched also spotted the anomaly from a distance and promptly reported the situation to the leader's vehicle.

The leader immediately relayed the news.

This command vehicle was issued to Wei Huan.

The [War System] has been marked on the map.

The latest chapter of "Highway Survival: A God-Tier Treasure Chest Start" by Jingzhou Xiaoyao is exclusively updated online. Visit [website address] to read the latest chapter and complete the full chapter.

[War System] Analyzes the intelligence obtained.

[The Demon Spider's weakness is fire. It's recommended to use Fire Arrow Towers to attack it. The Demon Spider's territory is 5 minutes away, giving us ample preparation time. Is this the optimal choice?]

Wei Huan's eyes opened and closed, and the Demon Eye Lord arrived at the Ghost-Faced Spider's territory, finally connecting with his vision.

He looked down at the seemingly endless territory from his vantage point and asked, "What were the losses for the convoy as it passed through the flames? How much more damage did the fire arrow towers suffer compared to regular arrow towers? Also, please confirm if the supplies are sufficient."

Three seconds later, the war system responded.

[Report to Commander: Passing through the flames will only cause less than 10% damage to our lead vehicle. The Flame Tower is a Tier 1 optional tower, with the same damage as the Tier 3 basic alloy tower. Our current energy reserves are sufficient to complete 32 battles of similar difficulty.]

32 games...

But Wei Huan frowned upon hearing this.

Mu Zhong also turned his head and said, "This is just the beginning. If we want to bring so many people to the finish line, it will take more than 32 battles. We must conserve our energy."

Wei Huan asked, "System, alternative plans, I remember Teng Jiayang and the others are over there."

[Teng Jiayang's vehicle was four kilometers away, providing left-wing escort; it would take them three minutes to reach the target location.]

"Inform them to go to the territory of the Ghost-Faced Spider, join the convoy, set the mountain on fire, attack with ordinary alloy arrows, and flatten all the trees."

[yes!]

Wei Huan's unwavering confidence drew Mu Tang's attention once again.

After all, not everyone is confident enough to refute the "optimal solution" given by the war system.

But Wei Huan, with an inexplicable intuition that seemed to come from "experience," immediately denied it.

Fire can be used, but what if excessive energy consumption leads to insufficient energy?

This isn't just one hundred or one thousand vehicles, but more than twenty thousand.

If even one-tenth of the vehicles were to run out of energy, no matter how powerful Wei Huan was, he would not be able to supply energy to so many vehicles.

This kind of thinking is absolutely impossible for someone who has never been on the battlefield or commanded a war.

Perhaps, this is what genius is all about.

Mu Tang felt somewhat ashamed of himself for reminding Wei Huan to apply for a "good advisor".

He's just looking down on people.

Of course, Wei Huan had no idea that in such a short time, due to the excessive tension of the war, his cousin Mu's mind had been racing with all sorts of thoughts.

In fact, Wei Huan had no experience in commanding this kind of battle.

He had seen it, participated in it personally, and participated many times. Afterwards, he would review, reflect, understand, and imagine how the leaders thought.

Through this process, even if he wasn't a born general, he is now one.

After all, even the current commanders of the major legions have not personally witnessed the great battle between the dark beasts and humans, the scene of the destruction of mountains and rivers, have they?

Only those who have stepped onto that battlefield can see the real world and grasp a perspective that others cannot understand.

To Wei Huan, such a scene of war was nothing.

.

I've met them.

Calm.

Such a tragic experience is better avoided.

Wei Huan has recently stopped recalling the scene of his last moments before his rebirth.

Too desperate, too dark.

He wants to change all of this, so he must forget the past.

We must also strive to break free from this predetermined outcome!

Therefore, this Level 3 assessment was far beyond expectations, and everything was so bad.

But Wei Huan still hoped to be able to take all these people out with him.

Isn't changing the predetermined fate of the world simply about breaking through these small, big and small situations?

Until it is completely overturned in the end?

This time, he must win!!

Wei Huan's eyes opened and closed, green flames leaping in his left eye, reflecting off the butterfly ear cartilage clip on his left ear, burning out a cold, sharp, yet resolute gaze.

It's like a fire that keeps burning, trying to set the sky ablaze!

...

[Leader's vehicle notification! Left flank teams 13, 14, and 15 are about to enter the territory of the Ghost Spider. Team 14 is activating war mode! Teams 13 and 15, prepare for battle!]

[Leader vehicle notification! Battle countdown, 30 seconds, 31 seconds...]

They drove their car further out of the No. 1 convoy, almost completely separated from the position convoy, in a black graffiti car.

Xu Qingqiang was yawning, wiping away the tears that had welled up in his eyes from exhaustion.

Yesterday I received a hurried notice to board the bus, and once I got on the bus, I had to wait for the assembly.

As a result, I didn't sleep all night and started the boring "Winged Quest".

For a bounty hunter accustomed to a free and easy lifestyle, it was really quite boring.

"A fight would be more spirited than this."

As Xu Qingqiang drove the basic AI-powered autopilot, he unconsciously reached for the plate beside him while talking.

When he found nothing, his face fell: "Where are my meat skewers? Did any of you eat my meat skewers?"

Lin Xu said, "Didn't you finish eating it all? I can't even look at it while it's right next to my hand, who would dare to eat it?"

"You really ate it all?"

"Yeah, you ate it all. How about I check the security footage and see how you kept eating it one bite at a time?"

"Heh!" Xu Qingqiang chuckled awkwardly. "That beat-up car is no good at anything else, but the chef is alright. Why don't we tie him up when we leave? He's a level one thief. If we grab him with one hand, he won't dare to resist."

That's what I meant.

What could Lin Xu and Zhou Yong say?

Wei Huan is still holding their necks, and they still want to hold the head chef's neck? Dream on!

However, we can't ignore what Brother Qiang said.

The two underlings exchanged a glance, and Lin Xu said, "Brother Qiang, you haven't seemed to be hungry lately?"

When Xu Qingqiang spoke of this, a dark light flashed in his eyes: "That's true..." He never thought that Wei Huan's spirit would be on his menu, and that it would be so effective.

Lin Xu nodded, and was about to say something when Zhou Yong called him back.

"Brother Qiang, the map shows that we've discovered a ruin."

The basic AI has a scanning radius of 300 meters. Once it detects and marks an area, it is almost visible to the naked eye.

Xu Qingqiang and Lin Xu looked to their left at the same time and saw a black cave that had sunk into the ground.

The cave was very conspicuous; although it was in the forest, it seemed designed so that you could see it at a glance.

Greedy eyes were already showing on Lin Xu's and Zhou Yong's faces.

"This looks like a worm ruin, a very low-level ruin. I'm so lucky, I got free equipment on a level 3 highway."

"The silver treasure chest on the third-level highway is quite difficult, but with Brother Qiang here, there shouldn't be any problems. Didn't Brother Qiang just say he was a little hungry?"

"My strength has increased recently, and I'm sure I can be of help today."

"I'm going too!"

"Let's go, Brother Qiang, open the box!"

"Go to hell!"

However, just as the two were getting into a heated conversation, sleeves rolled up and arms exposed, about to drive over and get down to business, Xu Qingqiang's words brought them back down to earth.

"Don't you guys know what time it is? Are you trying to cause trouble? Digging up rubble yourselves, do you want to die?"

"But…" Lin Xu hesitated for a moment, then sat back down and stopped talking.

Zhou Yong was a little unwilling: "The Earth Worm Ruins, the worst ruin on the third-level highway, even drops silver treasure chests. If we don't open them, we might not encounter them again later."

Xu Qingqiang turned to look at him.

Zhou Yong lowered his voice: "Besides, we weren't originally sent to this remote area. We'll just dig our own digs. At this speed, we can catch up anytime we finish."

"Alright, alright." Xu Qingqiang waved his hand. "I may be stupid, but I'm not stupid enough to be brainless. This is a military operation. What the hell is it if I act alone? At my age, if someone points a finger at me and calls me disorganized and undisciplined, are you going to cover for me?"

"We'll see." Xu Qingqiang pointed to the [two-pole device] on the control panel. "This thing is connected to the vehicle signal over there. As soon as I stop here, they get the signal."

Zhou Yong was the most extravagant spender among his brothers, and he was the poorest of them all. Seeing money but not being able to get it was like a death sentence for him.

Looking at the [bipolar device] now, it was like a murderer's eyes turning red with rage: "Once this mission is over, I'll smash it when we get out!"

Lin Xu pursed his lips, his gaze shifting between the two of them, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

"What?" Xu Qingqiang asked him, puffing out smoke as he saw him.

Lin Xu thought for a moment and then shook his head: "It's nothing."

As they were talking, they finally drove past the ruins of the earthworm.

For a bounty hunter, passing by a treasure trove without exploring it is the greatest torment.

The three people in the car remained silent for a long while.

Until another piece of good news came from the chat room.

The convoy has successfully passed through the territory of the Ghost-Faced Spider!

Passing was expected.

It would be ridiculous if a convoy of over 30,000 people couldn't even wipe out a small territory of wandering monsters.

Not to mention that this is a complete fleet, with a Tier 4 leader car, so many Tier 3 leader cars, and the cars in front are all elite cars with their own development.

As long as they don't encounter the Dark Beast Squad, such a team should theoretically be able to push all the way to the finish line.

But after each battle, the victory would still stimulate the atmosphere in the convoy, making it better and better.

The number of compliments in the chat room also increased.

[When the flames unleashed by the fire-elemental spirit servant engulfed the entire forest, my scalp tingled. Sometimes, I have to thank the arrival of the challenge world ∵()'Come%Read%Latest%CompleteChapter'(), for turning my monotonous life into a dreamlike and bizarre one. To actually witness such magical power with my own eyes...]

[Fire is absolutely devastating against the demon-faced spiders; their webs are useless against birds, and just a spark is enough to burn them to ashes.]

[Focus fire! I love focus fire!! Focus fire is the ultimate weapon!!]

[Although, it's still really fun working together!]

Upon seeing this, Xu Qingqiang clicked his tongue, said nothing, and simply stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray beside him.

The wisps of smoke struggled to release their last wisps of smoke. Xu Qingqiang twitched his nose, and a faint blue totem emerged from the depths of his collar.

At the same time, some blood vessels appeared on the whites of his eyes.

He said in a hoarse voice, "Why am I suddenly hungry?"

Upon hearing these familiar words, Lin Xu and Zhou Yong were startled and simultaneously turned their attention away from the chat room.

Then Xu Qingqiang said, "I think... I smell something delicious..."

...

At this moment, Wei Huan's gaze had long since shifted away from the territory of the Ghost-Faced Spider.

While the Ghost Spider is formidable on the battlefield, once caught in its web trap, even a Tier 3 vehicle is doomed.

But the premise is that in a panic, one should recklessly walk into a trap.

Knowing the habits of the Ghost-Faced Spider and its weaknesses, Wei Huan had no idea what the battlefield was like.

Since this is a battle we must win, let others take the lead.

As the supreme commander on the battlefield, Wei Huan was taking on this important task for the first time, but he was also clear that he needed to set his sights on something further ahead.

The monster horde, which was detected in advance by the reconnaissance vehicle, can be dealt with using standard combat tactics.

Even without his direct command, Mu Zhong and the other leaders' vehicle commanders were capable of commanding at this intensity.

Wei Huan must guard against the Dark Beast Special Operations Team, as well as some other unforeseen circumstances.

For example, those "wandering monsters" that suddenly spawn in the forest.

The concept of challenging the "obstacles" that the world sets for human challengers is not complicated to explain.

There are only four types in total.

Wandering monsters, treasure chest monsters, treasure monsters, ruin monsters.

The difficulty increases as these four types of monsters are ordered by name.

Therefore, the "wandering monsters" in the simplest sequence are essentially just there to cause trouble for humans.

On the road ahead, a "band of wandering monsters" is set up to block the way.

Since this plan was so easily disrupted, the challenge to the world is not to be underestimated; it will also be adjusted and changed according to the actual situation.

For example, at this moment, Wei Huan received a message from Ghost Crow in his mind.

When the convoy carrying the No. 3 leader's vehicle was traveling through a valley, the ground suddenly sank into a huge crater.

Three hundred vehicles fell into the ditch and were attacked and entangled by earthworms!

It's here!

Perhaps they really did happen to pass by the earthworm's nest.

But Wei Huan believes that this is a way of challenging the world and restricting it. By airdropping a batch of earthworms, they were trying to create trouble for them!

When Wei Huan's vision reached the area, more than 300 vehicles were already entangled by more than 500 giant earthworm-like worms and were about to be submerged in the mud and sand.

The battlefield was in complete chaos.

It was nothing more than a motley crew of loose sand.

A favorable situation is manageable, but when faced with a headwind, the chaos can be unimaginable.

Some vehicles brandished their external weapons and fired indiscriminately in all directions. The arrows fired from the arrow towers failed to kill a single earthworm, but instead attacked the vehicles next to them.

Those who felt their vehicles lacked sufficient offensive power left the vehicles and directly used their professional abilities to fight.

Everywhere you look, there are peasant warriors, and occasionally some real soldiers, who swarm in and kill a ground worm.

However, there are also vulnerable rogue classes. They just unleashed a burst of power, and before they could catch their breath, they were suddenly engulfed by earthworms that emerged from the ground and dragged underground.

A dancer was dancing on a car when a group of teammates around him emitted blue light, suddenly increasing their fighting power.

Some of the prayers were surrounded and protected by a group of people, who shouted "Heal! Heal!" as they fought.

Both the Hunter and Sage sequences are relatively at ease on this battlefield.

Their long-range attacks can help their compatriots when necessary, and of course, they are also the fastest to run if they sense danger.

Wei Huan also paid special attention to two very rare sequences—the Gardener sequence.

The core profession in the Gardener sequence is Druid.

They can strengthen themselves through transformation, and they revere the spirit of nature.

It is worth mentioning that in his previous life, Wei Huan knew that the Great Xia had a Druid training ground—[Nature Forest].

In other words, the Great Xia Dynasty theoretically had a druid who could directly ascend to the sixth rank, but this druid did not appear until the end of that battle.

However, at this moment, there are two druids on this battlefield.

A druid transformed into a war bear, strong and gray-black in appearance, a five-meter-tall giant bear, who fought five earthworms single-handedly, displaying great bravery.

On the other side, about five meters behind his battlefield, was a yellow tree-man, only about one meter tall.

Its feet are firmly planted on the ground, the branches on both sides of the trunk are like its arms, and a green canopy grows on top of its head.

When it raises its arms and shakes its head, green light shines on the bear, and its damaged fur is restored to its original state.

Druid: Bear.

and

Druid: Tree Man.

It also includes Druid: Falcon, Druid: Orca, and Druid: Wolf, for a total of five forms!
