Acai's Sky

Chapter 949: Falling Stars Form a Fortress: The Beacon of Civilization Illuminates the Ocean

Ah Cai's fingertips passed through the void, as if tearing a golden crack between heaven and earth.

In an instant, the brilliant light bursting out from the palm of his hand was like a newborn sun, breaking through the clouds with overwhelming force and reaching the sky.

The light exploded ten thousand meters in the sky, turning into a star rain flowing all over the sky. Each star was engraved with ancient and mysterious runes, like the codes left behind by ancient gods, flashing a heart-pounding light in the night sky.

As the rune star rain fell, the entire island suddenly shook violently.

A dull roar came from the ground, as if a giant beast that had been sleeping for thousands of years had awakened. The earth cracked into spider-web-like patterns, and golden light gushed out from it.

Amidst this shocking roar, a majestic and magnificent large villa complex broke out of the ground, like the mythical Atlantis rising from the seabed, stunning everyone's attention.

The main villa is like a crystal palace floating in the clouds. It is seven stories high and is made entirely of crystal clear glazed tiles.

The entire galaxy seems to be sealed in the glass. Under the shining starlight, it reflects colorful light, and the flowing halo dyes the entire island with a dreamy color.

The flying eaves and brackets are finely carved, and every texture seems to tell a thousand-year-old story. The small wind chimes hanging on the eaves sway gently in the sea breeze, making crisp and pleasant sounds, like the sound of nature, echoing over the island for a long time.

The huge floor-to-ceiling windows are inlaid with gilded frames, like exquisite picture frames, outlining the luxurious and elegant scene inside.

The intricate patterns on the Persian carpet seem to tell an ancient legend, and the crystal chandelier decorated with luminous pearls is dazzling, illuminating the entire space as bright as day.

The rustic mahogany furniture exudes the fragrance of time, complementing the modern luxurious decorations to create a sense of beauty that blends time and space.

Around the main villa, there are hundreds of villas with different styles.

Some are like ink paintings of the Jiangnan water towns, with white walls and black tiles looming under the shade of green bamboos, a winding stream gurgling through, a carved stone arch bridge spanning the two banks, and koi carp leisurely playing in the clear stream.

Some are full of exotic style, with pointed towers reaching into the sky and arched doors and windows carved with mysterious totems, as if hiding an unknown ancient civilization.

Others are very modern, with simple and smooth lines and large glass curtain walls, allowing you to take in the beautiful scenery of blue sky and blue sea.

The meticulously designed gardens between the villas are picturesque. The vast lawns resemble green carpets, dotted with colorful flowers, their fragrance wafting through the air, refreshing the senses.

The tall ancient trees block out the sun, and their branches and leaves rustle in the wind, as if telling ancient legends.

The winding cobblestone path is like a ribbon, connecting each villa. Rockeries of various shapes are scattered beside the path. Waterfalls cascade down from the rockeries, splashing crystal water, falling into the pond below, creating layers of ripples.

In the pond, water lilies bloom quietly, the pink petals and green leaves complement each other, like an exquisite ink painting.

A jade wall rises from the ground, surrounding the entire villa complex.

On the wall, lifelike dragon and phoenix patterns are about to emerge, and every carving is meticulously detailed, as if they will break through the wall and soar into the sky in the next second.

On the watchtowers at the four corners of the wall, the night pearls emit a soft and bright light, illuminating the sea area within a radius of hundreds of miles, like loyal guards protecting this pure land.

"This... this is simply a fairyland!"

Ah Er was stunned, and the psychic cannon in his hand almost slipped. His shocked expression seemed as if he had seen the legendary fairyland.

Qin General Li Xin nodded slightly, a glint of admiration flashing in his eyes: "Such fortifications can be used for both attack and defense. They are truly a strategic location."

Emperor Ming Zhu Gaochi stroked his beard and smiled with satisfaction: "This kind of architecture fully demonstrates the splendor of our Chinese civilization!"

Ah Cai looked at the shocked expressions on everyone's faces, a confident smile playing on her lips. "This is just the beginning. This will be our stronghold, usable both offensively and defensively. Everyone, take a break and prepare for the next challenge!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the island fell into an intense and orderly construction boom.

When Acai's villa complex was completed on the isolated island, Qin general Bai Qi suddenly inserted the Zhuxie Sword into the crevice of the rock. The sword body vibrated violently and made a buzzing sound, as if awakening the fighting spirit that had been sleeping for thousands of years.

The dark green battle pattern spread from his palm like a living thing, turning into a beacon of fire rising into the sky.

In an instant, countless dark golden cracks were torn into the void, and the sound of the armor colliding was like thunder.

Teams of well-trained elite Qin troops marched out in a line, their lances of the heavy cavalry in black armor piercing the clouds with a cold gleam; the crossbowmen were arranged in neat rows, their crossbows emitting a cold glow; the logistics and baggage soldiers carried bronze shields engraved with inscriptions and psychic weapons on their backs, and every look revealed determination and loyalty.

The entire island was instantly shrouded in the solemn military might, as if returning to the ancient battlefield of war.

Upon seeing this, Emperor Ming Emperor Zhu Di suddenly revealed half a scroll of the Yongle Encyclopedia from his sleeve. The pages began to move without wind, and dragon-shaped ink marks rose into the air, transforming into a golden talisman for delivering orders.

"Dong~Dong~" The morning bell rang, and the soldiers of the Shenjiying wearing purple gold crowns and carrying the French cannon (modified) appeared in formation. The orderly footsteps made the ground tremble slightly.

The Jinyiwei, dressed in Feiyu uniforms, were like black ghosts, silently disappearing into the shadows, ready to carry out secret missions at any time.

Skilled craftsmen from the Ministry of Works pushed wooden oxen and flowing horses loaded with building materials and measured the foundation of the city wall on the beach.

What was amazing was that the sand beneath their feet seemed to be inspired and automatically condensed into the shape of blue bricks, quickly building up the outline of a towering arrow tower.

Ah Er excitedly jumped onto the psychic cannon and yelled at the top of his lungs, "Brothers, show me all your stuff!"

Before he finished speaking, countless streams of light shot out from [Home] and transformed into large-scale equipment such as tower cranes and furnaces in the air.

Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, the steel-cast barracks rose from the ground like a mechanical behemoth. On the towering watchtower, the automatically rotating searchlight pierced the clouds, illuminating the area within a radius of ten miles as bright as day.

For a time, the entire island was caught up in a construction boom.

The Mohist mechanical engineers manipulated the three-legged bronze figures to carve fortifications on the cliffs, and the clanging sounds echoed through the valley.

The formation attracted a spiritual spring, and the clear spring water irrigated large areas of spiritual medicine fields, and the fragrance of medicine filled the air.

The cooking team set up dozens of bronze tripods on the island in the middle of the lake. In the blazing fire, the specially made "Nine-Turn Marching Pill" gurgled and the steaming aroma filled the air.

"Report~"

A Qin scout came galloping over on a one-horned blue rhinoceros, his face anxious, "General, a large number of light groups are attacking from outer space!"

Upon hearing this, Qin general Bai Qi pointed his sword to the sky, his eyes as sharp as an eagle: "Form a battle line!" Tens of thousands of Qin soldiers roared in unison, the sound waves were overwhelming and set off a huge wave.

Emperor Ming Zhu Di unfolded a hand-drawn star map and quickly circled the map with a red pen. The artillery of the Shenji Camp had begun to calibrate its position, with the muzzles pointed at the sky.

Ah Cai stood on the observation deck of the villa complex, looking at the busy and orderly battlefield below, her fingertips gently stroking the "Penglai Jade Flute" at her waist.

This magical weapon, which condenses countless spiritual energies, is now slightly hot, as if it senses the upcoming fierce battle and can't wait to show its edge.

The island had transformed into a brilliantly lit steel fortress. When the shadows of the skylight appeared where the halos met, Bai Qi's "Great Wall Arrow Formation" took the lead. Millions of arrows tempered with spiritual fire streaked across the night sky like meteors, leaving brilliant trails in the air.

Zhu Di's Shenjiying followed closely behind. Amid the deafening sound of artillery fire, lead bullets from the French cannons poured down like a rainstorm, tearing through the enemy's shields and sending flames shooting into the sky.

Ah Er's psychic cannon emitted a dazzling blue light, and the powerful energy beam plowed dozens of meters long burn marks on the surface of the star. It could be said that wherever it went, no grass grew.

Above the battlefield where smoke and magic intertwined, Acai's jade flute finally sounded.

The ethereal melody was like the sound of nature, transforming into an invisible barrier, enveloping the entire island in brilliant light.

Ah Cai waved her hand and said, "Prepare to retrieve the fragments. Dispatch all the soldiers and prepare to capture the fragments!"
