Just when Rhodes was about to take Mavis to the battle base to meet his comrades, the loud bell rang throughout Fanxing Town.
The stewards of Fanxing Town ran wildly through the streets, shouting: "Monster attack! Prepare for first-level combat! Non-combatants return to the shelter immediately! Don't stay on the street!"
The pace of the flow of people suddenly became rapid, rushing towards the refuge—the underground city to the east.
Although people's faces were tense, there was no fear.
Many people also spontaneously maintained order and organized evacuation.
Today's Fanxing Town's defense mechanism is quite complete, thanks to Molly's contribution.
As the senior dispatcher of the Military War Department, she is very familiar with the defense of the town. After occupying the main body of Fanxing Town, she designated the underground city to the east as an emergency shelter in case of war.
The special structure of the underground city makes it very safe, and the psychically reinforced walls and doors are very strong. The Star Kingdom once planned to build it as a battle base, but now times have changed, and the east side of Star Town is no longer boundless darkness.
The world is the Trollian Royal City, while the Starry Kingdom to the west has become a paradise for monsters.
The battle base has become a refuge, and there is nothing more suitable than it.
For the residents of Trorian, such things are not uncommon, and the invincible defender Rhodes gives them a considerable sense of security. They believe that he will win again, just like before.<
/p>
But Rhodes frowned.
He remembered that he had told Molly not to use level one combat preparation unless it was a particularly urgent situation.
It will affect production.
"Go quickly and see what's going on."
Rhodes took Mavis's hand and quickly rushed to the battle base in the center of the town.
Today, he is extremely fast, dozens of times faster than before, but Mavis's speed is still on par with him.
"This girl was left to me before." Rhodes thought.
They soon arrived at the combat base.
At a glance, all the combatants from Fanxing Town have gathered in the huge square.
Under the bright firelight, the crowds of people could be seen at a glance, but no one was whispering to each other. All the teams were lined up neatly, waiting for the commander's orders.
Although their combat level is not high, those who can become official combatants have undergone strict training.
They know very well how to fight monsters, and the consequences of taking unauthorized actions to disrupt order are to kill themselves, implicate their teammates, and make the already not very bright fire of human civilization even more dim.
If only compared to the level of elite training, Rhodes is far inferior to them. His growth has been leaps and bounds. He has the qualifications of a genius. It is unique and enviable.
Rhodes was once worried that he would be jealous and suppressed.
But in the process of growing up, he only encountered the ecstasy of being able to hold him in his lap and the dissatisfaction that he grew too slowly.
This can be regarded as a characteristic of Trolian.
Extreme admiration for strength, extreme desire for strong people to appear.
Just like it is now.
When Rhodes appeared in the square, the neat team became chaotic. People rushed over, eager to hear his voice, feel his invincible momentum, and hope that he could create miracles again.
The square was filled with voices calling his name, and thousands of words finally converged into one sentence.
"The black bastard is invincible!"
Rhode's face was distorted with anger.
But this is Theodore's protection for him. His fire name has been nailed and cannot be changed.
"I must find a way to come up with a more prestigious nickname in the future." Rhodes thought to himself: "Otherwise, they will always be my first fire source to call me, which is really unbearable."
He asked the captains to reorganize their formation immediately, and then took Mavis into the hall.
The combat meeting has begun.
The host is Molly, and the attendees include squadron leaders O'Hara, Conder, Beauwood, special members A Luo, Vivian, Annabeth and others.
Their faces were very solemn, staring at the sand table composed of a large ball of shining mist in the center.
This is a psychic imager, generally used to simulate battlefields.
The shining white mist in the middle is Fanxing Town. Its shape is rather weird, connecting to Ghost Lake in the south, like an inverted wedge.
Outside the white mist, there is nothing but black mist, which represents the dark world that is not illuminated by fire. It occupies 99% of the space on the sand table.
The shiny wedge only occupies a pitiful little spot.
What is more eye-catching is that there is a light brown slender "tail" at its tail that extends beyond the sand table.
This is the road that has been opened up, which connects to the Star City in the northeast.
All personnel and materials are transported via this road.
Molly said: "This is a gift given to us by Maihara. It is a super large psychic imager. It is generally not available. Because its battlefield scale is too large, Fanxing Town looks a bit small."
Vivian said softly: "This is a good thing. Our victory has always been too easy. Many people have the idea of underestimating the enemy, thinking that as long as Lord Rhodes fights, everything will be fine. But this is not the case. Just like
What we see is that we are extremely small in the face of the real dark world. We can win a hundred times, a thousand times, but as long as we lose once, everything will be over."
Molly nodded slightly: "Avi is right. If you see the super giant psychic imager in the royal city, you will know that the entire Trolian is just a shining speck of dust in front of the dark world.
."
Everyone's faces turned pale and they all looked ugly.
Rhodes smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, I..."
Before he finished speaking, Molly stopped him with a stern look.
"Okay...this is Mavis, my partner."
Rhodes sat down, and Mavis stood behind him without saying a word.
"Molly, what's going on? Didn't I tell you not to prepare for level one battle easily?"
Molly glanced at Mavis with vigilant eyes, and then said: "According to the report of the senior investigator of the Survey Corps stationed in Fanxing Town, we may have encountered the most serious disaster so far."

She holds a black pointer and points to the northwest of the sand table.
There is a large floating black particle there, which is moving slowly. It seems that the size has exceeded the area of Fanxing Town.
"This is the coming wave of monsters."
Rhodes was slightly surprised, so many monsters?
After incorporating the underground city to the east, Ghost Lake to the south and the area between them, the area of Fanxing Town has exceeded five hundred square thousand yards.
According to Rhodes' calculations, one yard is roughly equivalent to a meter, and five hundred square thousand yards is basically equivalent to five hundred square kilometers.
What is this concept?
If adults stood side by side on this land, it could accommodate 1.5 billion people.
Of course, monsters cannot stick together so closely, and their size is usually far larger than that of humans.
But in such a large area, there are at least tens of thousands of them.
Rhodes frowned: "Why are there so many monsters attacking us?"
Molly said seriously: "We have confirmed that this is man-made. The news will be sent back to the royal city soon, and the investigation operation will be accelerated immediately. Those bugs hiding in the dark will not be able to hide for long."
"But the first thing we have to face now is this crisis."
Next, Molly began to explain the types and characteristics of monsters.
The ranks of this group of monsters are not high, only adult level, not even vicious level, but they are the monsters that all combatants least want to see.
They are called Aries demons.
According to the research of the Rose School of the Royal City, this is the product of the corruption of demons that strayed from the abyss in ancient times. They have two very troublesome characteristics at the same time.
Abyss and proliferation.
Abyss characteristics are possessed by every abyss monster, and they will automatically emit the breath of the abyss to pollute the earth.
If the pollution is serious enough, this area will turn into an abyss, and black mist will gather in the abyss, and abyssal monsters will be born.
This is how dungeons become lairs of the abyss.
Another characteristic, proliferation, allows the Aries Demon to split into smaller Aries Demons when it receives fatal damage.
After the small ones die, they will split again until they split into dust.
It is a heavy pollutant that not only releases a large amount of abyssal breath, but also attracts black mist like rot.
If they fight within the scope of the fire, the overwhelming dust will attract a large amount of black mist into the fire, compressing the scope of the fire, or even extinguishing the fire.
If they fight outside the range of the fire, the dust will float in the black mist for a period of time. After absorbing enough black mist, it will grow into an Aries demon again.
Therefore, this is a very difficult group of monsters, and there is no way to deal with them without special means.
Many settlements have been destroyed by the Aries demon swarm, and the royal city has listed it as a major malignant threat.
It is not recommended to fight them unless necessary.
The group of Aries demons that Fanxing Town will face is also a particularly large one in terms of scale.
Molly said: "According to intelligence information, they will arrive at Fanxing Town in one hour."
The atmosphere at the venue was solemn, except for Rhodes who looked relaxed.
"Don't worry, I can easily solve this small problem. You don't need to take action. Just clap and cheer me from behind."
Molly looked at Rhodes sternly: "Sir Rhodes, I have told you that I hope you can be more serious when discussing business!"
Rhodes almost laughed out loud.
He really didn't listen very carefully just now, mainly because Molly's dress was so interesting.
She was wearing the uniform of the Military War Department, gold-rimmed glasses, and a pointer. Since she was about to fight, she naturally wore black stockings on her thighs. Coupled with her expression as serious as a class teacher, this scene was particularly similar to what he once did.
Some of the plots I have watched.
Although Rhodes knew that it was inappropriate to think randomly at this time, he happened to have the Wrath of the Void in his hand, and Mavis was already in place.
No matter how difficult these Aries demons are, they will always explode.
The angry void will directly swallow the existence of the Aries demons themselves. It is impossible for them to split, and the abyss breath on their bodies will also be swallowed up.
The self-destruction in the dungeon has proved this.
Therefore, what they considered to be a very serious crisis was just a piece of cake to Rhodes, so naturally he could not take it seriously.
"Molly, you can always trust me, this is really not a crisis."
Rhodes put away his smile and said seriously.
"When encountering situations in the future, don't rush into level one combat preparations. Ask me first. Otherwise, do you know how much money we will lose over time? My divinity... Well, my money is not wasted like this.
."
Molly was silent for a few seconds and asked softly: "Is it Lord Theodore's soul ripple?"
This was the only explanation she could think of.
Everyone looked at Rhodes with the same thoughts in their minds.
Rhodes coughed and could only reply: "Yes, this is Lord Theodore's last soul ripple."
Annabeth asked softly: "Has Lord Theodore expected this?"
"Ah... yes, you are right, my horse."
Annabeth's face turned red. She was a little happy and a little confused. She felt as if she had accepted the identity of the mount. This seemed to be the meaning of her existence.
Everyone was amazed, sighing that Lord Theodore was worthy of seeing such a far future.
Rhodes stood up and said with a smile: "Okay, the chat is over. Now let's watch the performance of Mephis and I. Annabeth, change into a horse and send us to the battlefield."
Annabeth agreed in a whisper, holding her hands in front of her chest, releasing her magic power.
When the purple smoke dissipated, her awakening state - the centaur stood in front of her.
Compared with the last time, she has become more muscular and muscular, with smooth lines and clear muscles.
This is a very beautiful little mare.
Rhodes jumped on the horse and shouted: "Mephis, come up."
Annabeth turned her head and said dissatisfiedly: "I am your mount, and I don't want anyone else to ride me."
Rhodes smiled and said: "Mavis is not someone else, she is my best partner."
Annabeth said angrily: "Didn't you say that the best partner is me?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Rhodes was shocked. He had forgotten about this matter and said with a dry smile: "You are all my best partners."
Annabeth tilted her head angrily, obviously not relieved.
Rhodes gently stroked the horse's back and rubbed the person's back wildly, finally getting Annabell to calm down.
She walked to Mavis and said calmly: "Come up."
Mavis hesitated a little, but still jumped on the horse and sat behind Rhodes.
A Luo shouted: "I want it too!" She jumped into Rhode's arms.
Immediately afterwards, Molly turned into a mist and covered Rhodes.
Annabeth snorted dissatisfiedly, but her upper body was human, so the snort was not loud at all, but rather shy and cute.
"Don't join in the fun!"
Rod threw A Luo down and drove Molly away from him.
"This is a special tactic, and you are not suitable to accompany it."
A Luo suddenly pursed her lips, tears rolling in her big eyes: "You actually don't want me! I have obviously been preparing for pregnancy for you for so long."
Rhodes said angrily: "It's for spiritual power!"
"Psychic is my child!"
Rhodes covered his forehead and said in a slow tone: "It's true that it won't be used this time, but it will be used next time."
Then he said to Molly: "Since we have prepared for the first-level battle, we should not cancel it for the time being. The soldiers will set up defenses around Fanxing Town just in case."
Molly nodded: "Okay."
Rhodes smiled and said: "Then I will set off, you will wait and see."
He slapped the horse's butt hard and shouted: "Drive!"
Annabeth rushed out in one step, but suddenly reacted and shouted angrily: "I'm not a horse, you just say leave, don't spank me."
"Okay, I understand, Mavis, this is your first time riding a horse. I'll tell you the key tips. You learn my movements and hold me tight."
"You don't want to hug my breasts!"
When the first word fell, Annabeth had already jumped out of the hall. When the last word fell, no one could see her back.
In the hall, everyone looked at each other.
O'Hara laughed dryly and said: "Hahaha, our commander is really energetic."
Baywood said calmly: "I have told you a long time ago that he is a big devil, and all the girls in Red Square Street know his name."
This topic immediately aroused A Luo's interest, and she asked: "Really? Tell me in detail, I want to know the details."
But everyone else lacks interest. Although the opposite sex is attractive, power is what they care about most. Spiritual energy, characteristics, fire, combat skills, monster knowledge, and everything like this are the foundation of their survival. p>
Everyone walked outside.
Although they believe that the commander will win, the established strategy must still be implemented meticulously.
Only A'luo is pestering Baywood to ask about Rhode's dark history, while Molly quietly follows behind and eavesdrops.
At this moment, Annabeth had already carried Rhodes and Mavis out of the range of the Star Fire Suppression. The red tear stone began to work on them, and a hazy red light glowed, resisting the erosion of the black mist.
In the distance that they can't see, Aries demons are rushing towards Fanxing Town like a tide.
At the front of the monster wave, three figures glowing red are carefully throwing away special rotten substances to ensure that the Aries demon group will not deviate from the direction.
And further away, there is a pair of eyes watching all this quietly.
