Chapter 718
Chapter 746 Pick up a team leader
However, at this border where strong people gather, Xiao Lingyu still couldn't use the holy weapon easily. Although the quality of the holy weapon is not easy to see, if it is seen, it will definitely cause great trouble.
Xiao Lingyu already knows one thing now. Holy weapons are not very few in the divine world, but most of them are in the hands of the God Emperor and the powerful people in the Holy Spirit Stage. Moreover, a god emperor often only has one or two holy weapons. Xiao Lingyu has three holy weapons, which is stronger than the magic weapons and equipment of many powerful people in the God Emperor Stage Stage.
Shortly after the three airships of the Tianchi Iron Armored Regiment stopped, a powerful man in the God King stage dressed in golden armor came up. The golden armor monk was a senior figure of the Tianchi mercenary. He was ordered by the commander of the army leader to take the Tianchi Iron Armored Regiment to the mission location.
Under the leadership of this golden monk, the airship turned its direction and flew for nearly three months before stopping.
"This mud swamp is the area where our Iron Armored Regiment needs to defend against the garrison. You must be careful and send people to patrol and guard them at all times. Once you find out the enemy situation, don't act without permission. Send a message first, and then respond to the enemy according to the situation. On your left is our mercenary's silver armor regiment, and on the right is the bronze armor regiment. You three corps must rely on and support each other." The golden armor monk told Captain Ding.
"Where is our Golden Armored Group?" Captain Ding asked curiously.
"Although the Golden Armored Regiment is powerful, it is not large in number after all, and it cannot protect much area. They are behind your three corps. As mobile combat power, if you encounter big trouble, the Golden Armored Regiment will come to help." The Golden Armored Monk replied.
"Did the Night Demon Clan take action this time, or is it just a gesture?" Captain Ding asked with concern.
"This... I can't say that it is true, it is false, and it is false. Who knows the virtual and real situation of the Night Demon Clan? Anyway, everyone should be careful. Even if the Night Demon Clan comes this time, the area under which our Tianchi mercenaries are responsible for is not the key position of the Night Demon Clan's attack." The golden-armored monk shook his head and said.
Captain Ding nodded and did not ask any more questions.
"You guys start to set up defenses, I'll go back first." The golden-armored monk jumped away after speaking.
The area of this mud moor is not small, and it is so wide that it cannot be detected at present, but the width of the Tianchi Iron Armored Regiment needs to be alerted has reached more than 10,000 miles away.
More than 10,000 miles seem not far away, but there are more than 10,000 people in the Tianchi Iron Armored Group. On average, one person should be alerted to one mile away. If everyone is really responsible for one mile and dispersed, the warning effect will be very weak and very dangerous.
It is impossible for each person to be responsible for one mile, because the Night Demons rarely act alone.
Commander Ding had also fought with the Night Demon Clan monks before, and he knew quite well about the Night Demon Clan. He divided the Tianchi Iron Armored Regiment into 100 squadrons, each squadron was responsible for the vigilance of the 100-mile area, and recommended that each squadron be divided into two groups and take turns patrolling the muddy swamp.
"Everyone will disperse. Remember, if you encounter a large number of Night Demons, you will immediately retreat and send a message. If you encounter a small number of Night Demons, you will organize people to kill them on your own."
After explaining all the precautions carefully, Captain Ding waved his hand to let everyone disperse.
Xiao Lingyu was also in a squadron, so Xiong Meng and the other four were naturally in his squadron.
This mud swamp is more like a swamp, with shallow puddles everywhere, but there are very few water plants, and a few trees that are not tall can be seen in scattered.
During the day, this mud swamp is still normal. Even when the night demons invade, occasionally a few birds flap their wings and soar in it, falling down from time to time to catch fish and insects to eat.
But at night, mist of water rose in the mud swamp, obscuring everyone's vision and blurring everyone's consciousness.
Most of the Night Demons are active at night. With the cover of the night, they can almost be invisible without casting any spells. If they are not careful, they can approach...
Therefore, evening is the key period for alertness.
Based on this actual situation, Xiao Lingyu also divided the 100-person squadron into two groups, one group of forty people responsible for daytime alerts, and the other group of sixty people responsible for patroling at night.
As a deputy commander of the Tianchi Iron Armored Regiment, although Xiao Lingyu was in this squadron, he was in charge of the 3,000 people from the 30 nearby squadrons, so he did not participate in patrol and guard, but instead ran back and forth more than 3,000 miles away nearby. However, if he stopped to rest, he would definitely return to the team where he was.
What surprised Xiao Lingyu was that more than three months passed and no Night Demon Clan was discovered, but Captain Ding was transferred.
Captain Ding hurriedly left the mud swamp without even sending a message to Xiao Lingyu, but left a jade slip.
In this jade slip, a lot of information about the Night Demon Clan was recorded, and there was also a passage to Xiao Lingyu.
Commander Ding explained to Xiao Lingyu: "This time the Night Demon Clan is serious. At present, a large-scale conflict has broken out on the front battlefield. All the monks in the God King stage have been transferred to the front battlefield. The same is true for our Tianchi mercenaries. The Tianchi Golden Armored Regiment, which was originally behind us, has been transferred away. The defense and ward here can only depend on you. After I leave, you, Brother Xiao, should be the strongest in the Tianchi Iron Armored Regiment, so please temporarily act as the leader, control more than 10,000 people in the entire Iron Armored Regiment, and take good care of this Wanli quagmire defense line."
For the time being, the deputy commander of the regiment will replace the responsibility of the regiment commander. This is normal, but Xiao Lingyu never expected that half a year had passed, and they still had not seen the monks of the Night Demon clan. However, a golden-armored monk from Tianchi hired a mercenary to say that Commander Ding died in the front battlefield, and the senior mercenary entrusted the position of the regiment commander to Xiao Lingyu.
"It's an extraordinary period now. The army leader has no time to choose a regiment commander for the Iron Armored Regiment. Brother Xiao has made a bargain. Before the God King period reaches the stage, he can become a regiment commander of my Tianchi mercenary. Brother Xiao is unique."
The golden-armored monk patted Xiao Lingyu on the shoulder before leaving, and then left after saying something irrelevant.
Xiao Lingyu did not secretly be glad because he became the leader. Instead, he was a little worried that on the front battlefield, even the powerful people in the God King stage could fall. It is conceivable how fierce the battle was. He was glad that others could not see that he already had the strength of the God King stage. Otherwise, he would have to go to the front battlefield to fight against the powerful people of the Night Demon clan.
The calm here did not last long. One night two years after coming here, Xiao Lingyu received a message from a squadron saying that they had encountered the Night Demon Cultivator, but fortunately, there were only two Night Demon Cultivators, and they had been surrounded and killed.
But a few days later, the squadron of the Tianchi Iron Armored Regiment continued to hear messages of encountering the Night Demon Clan monks, and the number of the other party increased.
While Xiao Lingyu asked everyone to increase their attention, he jumped into the depths of the mud swamp.
The Night Demon Clan suddenly came here, and there were more and more spies sent out, so there must be problems inside. Xiao Lingyu felt that the Tianchi Iron Armored Group could not sit and wait, and he had to understand the enemy's movements.
While flying deep into the mud swamp, he also informed the mercenary of the Golden Armored God King.
Xiao Lingyu has the peak of the late stage of Chaos Tongxuan, and his spiritual consciousness covers a wide range. In addition, he is always on the road during the day and has extremely fast speed, so ordinary Night Demon spies cannot detect him at all.
Half a month after going deep into the mud swamp, Xiao Lingyu finally ran into a night demon cultivator during the day.
Like what Captain Ding left behind the jade slip, the Night Demon monks looked very ugly. At least from the aesthetics of human monks, the Night Demon monks looked very beautiful. Their skin was dark, their mouths were wide, and there were sharp fangs on each corner of their mouth. They were not tall, but had four arms and two legs. Their claws were the same as those of birds. Their noses were completely sunken in the basin, with only two small nostrils exposed, while their ears were similar to pig ears, and their hair was sparse, which could not cover up a single horn on the top of their heads.
