Yalang Town is extremely quiet in the dark. With most of its residents evacuated, the town has only a few lights and looks deserted, lonely and lacking in vitality.

Xu Huang stayed at home, without leaving the house, and devoted himself to the urgent practice. In order to save time, his eating frequency and sleeping time were much reduced than usual, almost reaching the limit of his practice duration.

Faced with the current situation that almost all shops in Yalang Town were closed to customers, even Uncle Huaiyi's restaurant dismissed its employees, paid them their salaries, and returned to their hometowns or took refuge in the military area.

Now there are only two kinds of shops left in the town, the magic shop that makes magic tools and the medical center that treats the wounded. Many military doctors have also joined them, responsible for preparing conventional medicines and healing potions for the coming war.

This project is so huge that if it weren't for the majesty of the military, many pharmaceutical companies in the city would not be greedy for money, drive up prices, and take the opportunity to make a fortune!

It can be said that Qingjia Xilong Xu Qing is living a very miserable life due to the evacuation of people. The restaurants he usually likes are all closed, and the delicacies who thought they would stay with him for a long time have abandoned it and disappeared into the vast sea of ​​people.

.

Now, it only has two choices for three meals a day.

First, eat the barbecue or broth that the hunters eat. Those rough men don't care whether it tastes good or not. For them, as long as they are full, they are basically guys who can't cook for themselves.

Either eat canned food, or just sprinkle it with salt, roast or stew it. As for the taste, as long as it doesn't kill you, it will be digested with patience...

That kind of rough man who doesn't care about his own taste buds deserves to be single for the rest of his life. If he doesn't learn how to cook, how can he expect that some of the younger girls today will know how to cook... It's too naive to think too much!

Compared with hunters, military mages seem to be simpler and more crude to some extent. Can those compressed biscuits and mineral water really be considered a meal?

It may be okay to fill your stomach, but the advantages of compressed food are not only easy to fill up and quick replenishment of energy...

Basically, there is nothing else. Apart from the taste, which is hard to compliment, well, there is another advantage that is not an advantage. The hardness is high enough. If it is refined, it may be better than bricks because it can be eaten.

Xu Qing has just returned home from the hunter gathering place. Dinner, lunch, and even breakfast are all the same, barbecue, stew, rice and beer, rather...

It's the leftovers from breakfast, then you eat them for lunch, you eat the leftovers from lunch, then you warm them up, and you continue to eat them for dinner, what are these?

Hey, special times, special treatment, now I can only aggrieve myself. If I can survive, I must eat delicacies from all over the world, and eat all kinds of things. If I can't survive...

At any rate, let him be a full-fledged ghost!!

Xu Qing swayed and walked back in the dark alley. It has strong night vision and is also very sensitive to heat. Even if there is not enough light, it can still drive easily. On the nearby streets, it is closed

Eyes can be opened unobstructed.

Well, what's going on?

Xu Qing walked around a street that sells textiles and clothing. Xu Huang usually likes to visit Mr. Lu's tailor shop. The clothes and pants are all tailor-made and the fabrics are also very particular. They are always more comfortable to wear than other stores.

.

As soon as it passed Mr. Lu's tailor shop, it saw heavy-duty military trucks parked in the leisure square where the elderly in Yalang Town loved to hang out. The square, which covers a large area, was blocked by military trucks.

Xu Qing stayed where he was, holding his breath and watching the excitement. He only saw some military mages getting off a truck dozens of meters away, all of them heavy-backed.

They carried some huge solid wooden boxes from heavy trucks and dragged them with tough ropes, leaving clear drag marks on the ground. It is conceivable that no matter what is loaded inside, it must be very heavy. Those as strong as

Niu's military mage hadn't unloaded several boxes, and was already panting and sweating profusely.

Xu Qing looked at the flash of luster in the opened wooden boxes illuminated by the hazy moonlight and dim street lights, and felt a turmoil in his heart!

Could it be?! Did the military mages even transport these things?

The Qingjia Xilong slowly walked home along the dark side of the alley. No matter what happened next, it was not something it could get involved in...

On the hillside near Yalang Town, a latent shadow bird with black wings rotates its eyes and adjusts its sight. Its vision is not affected by the darkness. Through a special perception system, it can understand the fluctuations of life within a few miles.

.

It is integrated with the shadow of the big tree. In the dark night, it is one of the most outstanding scouts. Even if it is only a slave, many high-level mages with advanced cultivation can hardly detect its aura.

Now that the army of military mages has settled in Yalang Town, the number of intermediate mages has greatly increased. Among the elementary mages, those who have reached the third level of the elementary level are even approaching the critical point of intermediate mages.

The situation is not good now. If we continue to allow combat forces to move in, it will be detrimental to the overall situation of the monarch. We must launch it as soon as possible. Now their deployment has not been completely completed. Although it is not easy to gather the entire tribe of Qinghun Mountain, we want them to advance and retreat in an orderly manner.

Almost a fantasy...

However, demon riots have no rules at all. When demons invade human towns, they only need to rely on a huge tide of beasts and a slaughter so cruel that humans can destroy the spiritual defense line of humans.

Regardless of whether you are an ordinary person or a magician, once your spirit breaks down, you are just a piece of meat to be slaughtered by the demon army...

The latent shadow bird spreads its wings and crosses the intertwined tree canopy, hoping to return to the depths of the mountains to spread the news. When it comes again, what it brings back is the most brutal war.

It flew through the shadow of a big tree, and suddenly a calloused, generous hand appeared in the darkness.

The latent shadow bird was caught off guard and was caught directly. It waved its sharp wings as sharp as a knife, but was stabbed by a nail-shaped black shadow as big as a palm and unable to move.

Its eyes bulged out of fear of death that could come at any time. It was very familiar with the mysterious man who caught him, using the shadow-based mid-level magic - Giant Shadow Nail.

This special magic directly damages the soul. If you act rashly, you will suffer the severe pain of soul tearing, your cultivation will be greatly reduced, your potential will be damaged, and you may even become an unconscious walking zombie.

"Old Lizard Scout, do you really think that you have been monitoring Yalang Town during this period and tipped it off that we wouldn't notice it?"

Zhang Huaiyi came out of the darkness. His third element is the shadow element, and he has long been proficient in the use of elementary magic to escape.

This latent shadow bird is an extremely rare demon. It is not very powerful, but its hiding ability is so strong that even some high-level shadow mages cannot detect it...

However, in front of him, this little slave-level demon was not worth mentioning.

It turns out that when he was training in the Qilian Mountains, he had seen a lot of latent shadow sparrows from the general level. If he couldn't even detect one of the slave level, he wouldn't have to mess around!

"It's not difficult to guess the situation of both of us now. We are both still gathering fighting strength. Even if we kill this little demon, the old lizard is cunning and cunning, and we can still make a rough guess..."

Zhou Xingyu walked out of the woods. Now Yalang Town's deployment is in order. All they need is a little more time for them to improve their defensive capabilities to the highest level.

As for the situation under surveillance, it has not been more than a day or two. The old lizard is very shrewd. Even if he never shows up, there are always scouts snooping for information hidden near Yalang Town.

Now in order to evacuate the residents, Old Lizard has already taken the lead, not to mention taking them by surprise. Moreover, in order to disrupt their deployment, Old Lizard has sent a lot of cannon fodder.

Although it is not its elite division, it does contain a considerable part of its combat power.

In order to cover the actions of the military mage, almost all the hunters in Yalang Town were dispatched to fight against the demons on the outskirts of Yalang Town.

Although the real bloody battle has not yet begun, there have already been casualties. Zhou Xingyu and the others can hardly swallow their bad breath, but they have no choice but to make sacrifices for the sake of the overall situation.

"You should be regarded as a close relative of the old lizard. Tell the old guy for me, no matter what it wants to do, just let it go and we, Yalang Town, will accompany it until the end..."

Zhang Huaiyi knew very well that none of the hunters left behind were greedy for life and afraid of death. They had been fighting monsters for many years, and they had all experienced the baptism of blood and fire.

The war is a bloody feast of purgatory, but the hunters were born in purgatory, and they all returned from purgatory.

"I didn't intend to kill it, but..."

Zhang Huaiyi looked at the latent bird in his hand, his eyes revealing fear and uneasiness.

The terrifying aura emanating from his body was like the weight of Mount Tai, and the suffocating feeling made the latent shadow bird drip with cold sweat.

It had only felt this kind of feeling in the Evil Dragon Lord. The man in front of him could never be a high-level person, absolutely impossible!

"Tell the old lizard that it was the man who burned out one of its eyes ten years ago. This time, what I want is no longer just an eye, but its head..."

Zhang Huaiyi knew very well that the old lizard hated him with all his heart. In the past ten years, if he had not been confident enough, he would have skinned and torn himself into pieces and cut himself into pieces!!

But why didn't he want to kill his subordinates and avenge the old money?

If he hadn't been so eager to advance and failed to break through seven years ago, he wouldn't have been silent for several years.

But now, he dares to challenge the old lizard. It may not be big for the old lizard to be crowned the monarch, as long as it does not really set foot on the throne...

Why should you be afraid of yourself!!!

Zhang Huaiyi let go of his hand, untied the giant shadow nail on the latent shadow bird, and let the slave-level demon flap its wings and flee in a hurry. It would bring his words to the old lizard.

I really want to know what its expression will be when it hears its own declaration of war. The one-eyed dragon like it must be very ferocious and twisted!

…………

"Sir, the weapons we need have been transported, please give us the order!"

A burly man with a strong physique and steel-like muscles all over his body trotted up to Huo Ju and gave a military salute.

He stood in a standard military posture. He was like a hill when he was more than two meters tall. Huo Ju, who was originally considered strong, was a head shorter in front of him.

In order to see his superior, this burly man could only lower his head and use the light to ask for orders.

"Just do what you do best..."

Huo Ju looked at the famous Iron King Kong in the army in front of him. He seemed to be a powerful magician with outstanding strength, with good cultivation in the earth element and shadow element.

However, people should not be judged by their appearance. Although he looks big and rough, he has a delicate mind and is the backbone of the key step in the defense line.

"Zhu Xiong, Yalang Town is your hometown. Our actions will inevitably destroy this town..."

The burly man commanded his teammates, carrying the metal objects taken out from the solid wooden boxes, and dispersed towards various corners of Yalang Town.

Just as he was about to leave carrying a huge mountaineering bag half as tall as a man, Huo Ju suddenly asked.

Being delicate is often a good thing, but because of this, delicate people are very sensitive to emotions. Zhu Xiong's inner bond to his homeland may be stronger than anyone else in the team.

Although he would not reveal his words, Huo Ju would not fail to know that he would become a commander. The most important thing is not his powerful strength that approaches high-level, but his ability to see into people's hearts.

"I know, but the bounden duty of a soldier is to obey orders. Like me, there are not a few people in the team who left Yalang Town to join the army. We are all mentally prepared for it. Although we know that the homeland where we grew up cannot be preserved and we will feel pain,

But if we have to sacrifice more to protect the compatriots behind us, we will not hesitate... we cannot live up to the military uniform we are wearing, military mages, we have to sacrifice our small family for everyone..."

Zhu Xiong was stunned for a moment, but looking at the trust in Huo Ju's eyes, the pain hidden deep in his heart suddenly disappeared a lot.

Even though he knew his roots in his hometown, the commander was still willing to believe in himself, so what exactly was he hesitating about?

Zhu Xiong grinned, knowing that he had to make sacrifices, so there was no need to be afraid.

As long as people are still there, Yalang Town will be rebuilt, and the fire that has been passed down for hundreds of years will not be extinguished.

He turned around and walked into the dark alley, using his own steps to finally measure the streets he walked through when he was a child. The past that he thought he had forgotten gradually emerged in his mind.

It turned out that he had never forgotten that the bricks and tiles of Yalang Town had long been deeply imprinted on him and in the hearts of every military mage who walked out of Yalang Town.

Yes, why should he suffer? Only by going all out can we defend Yalang Town. If we are afraid of destruction, the demon riots will only become more violent.

The sacrifice now is for the victory of the war and for better reconstruction in the future!!

He knew that there were many comrades like him, but they had already made choices. As the captain, he was holding them back because he couldn't let go. It was really bad. He should obviously take the lead!

Zhu Xiong's footsteps became more and more steady and powerful. He walked through the criss-crossing alleys, and the flat grassland outside Yalang Town was vaguely visible.

Not far away, several teammates had opened their backpacks, dug up the soil, and carefully filled in the dangerous metal objects.
Chapter completed!
