Chapter 560: The Big Flicker Mode Has Been Opened Again
With the help of Qiuqiu's identity cover, Li Tian successfully sneaked into the demon clan's control area, but it was more difficult to explore further.
Hongchen's army is extremely disciplined. In the defense area close to the human army, there are almost three posts per step.
It is too difficult to find Leng Feiyan's remains in such a harsh environment.
Even if Qiuqiu's monster identity is used as a cover, it is still very dangerous.
A rat demon appears inexplicably in a strategically important military area. Unless you encounter an idiot like Mo Zhang who is eager to make meritorious deeds, it will be difficult for Qiuqiu to get in.
Even if you sneak in, it will be difficult to move freely.
This army in Hongchen is like a machine. These soldiers are all parts of the machine. Each one has his own responsibilities and cannot act without authorization.
"Master, what should I do?" Qiuqiu communicated with Li Tian telepathically.
Li Tian frowned, pondered for a while, and then a look of determination flashed in his eyes: "Bypass the Hongchen Army's defense area, and then detour back to the second line of defense behind him."
"Ah? Master, where are you going? The second line of defense is completely beyond the limits of Zhuque Mountain. There are no remains there, right?" Qiu Qiu said.
Li Tian grinned: "I have a little plan."
A few days later, Qiuqiu took Li Tian and Xiao Hei in a big circle and detoured to Yelang Mountain.
Yelang Mountain is located about 1,000 kilometers behind Zhuque Mountain and belongs to the second line of defense of the Yaozu Zhuque Mountain.
As mentioned earlier, the only human army among the frontline troops is stationed here.
The leader's name is Li Nan, who is about 600 years old this year and has cultivated in the middle of the Tribulation.
He was born in the tenth district of the demon clan.
This is his hometown.
He doesn't care about the differences between the human race and the demon race, he just wants to fight for his hometown.
However, his journey to the army was full of ups and downs from the beginning.
The recruiting cadres of the demon race do not trust the human race at all.
Later, when An Yixia finally came to take charge of the tenth district of the demon clan, Li Nan cheered, thinking that he finally had the opportunity.
However, the cold reality soon poured a chill on him.
Even An Yixia, who is a human, still seems to distrust the humans in the Demon Realm.
The treatment of the humans in District 10 was even worse.
After a lot of effort, Li Nan finally applied to go to the front line, but he was always placed on the second or even third line of defense.
When the other demon troops on the second and third lines of defense began to rotate to the front line for training, his troops seemed to be forgotten.
As time passed, the spirit of going to the battlefield to defend my hometown gradually faded away.
Not to mention his soldiers, even Li Nan himself was lying flat.
Drinking, playing cards, walking the dog, completely becoming a frontline idler.
On this day, Li Nan, who was bored and playing cards with his subordinates, suddenly received a report from his subordinates.
"Lord Li Nan, there are orcs who escaped from the frontline troops and want to join us."
"Orcs?"
"Yes. He is a human-dragon hybrid, a half-animal dragon."
Li Nan's eyes lit up: "Dragon people, they are rare. Bring them here."
At this time, Li Nan's subordinates hurriedly said: "Master Li Nan, you must not accept deserters from the front line. This is considered harboring under military law."
"I just called here to ask." Li Nan paused and then said, "Don't you want to know what the Dragon Man looks like?"
Everyone's eyes lit up instantly.
The intelligent creatures on the Glazed Plane are mainly humans and monsters.
But there is actually another group of people, and that is half-orcs.
This kind of half-orc is mainly a hybrid of human race and demon race, and its physical appearance is a mixture of human and demon race characteristics.
In fact, it is very difficult for humans and demons to give birth to children, and the children they give birth to will be discriminated against. Both humans and demons will discriminate against them.
In the tenth district of the demon clan, there should be the most mixed blood of humans and demons, but they have always lived at the bottom of society. Many orcs even became slaves right after they were born.
There are also some orcs in the demon army, but they all do auxiliary work, or simply serve as death bait.
Anyway, the treatment is extremely miserable.
Li Nan's troops also had serious discrimination against orcs.
However, they are quite curious about the hybrid dragon people of human race and dragon race.
You must know that most of the dragons on the Glazed Plane are pterosaurs, which have been reduced to low-level monsters.
This kind of pterosaur has been severely degraded, and its IQ is not very good. There are only a handful of pterosaurs that can cultivate to the realm of transcending tribulation. Even if they can transform and interact with humans, it is difficult for hybrid offspring to be born.
In addition to pterosaurs, there are other dragon species on the Glazed Plane, but these dragon species basically live on the floating islands in the Glazed Sea, such as Shenlong Island, Dark Dragon Island, etc., which are all famous dragon gathering areas.
Since the death of Demon Emperor Kun ten thousand years ago, except for the pterosaurs who have been reduced to low-level monsters, other highly intelligent dragons have completely withdrawn from the Glazed Plane.
In the past ten thousand years, it has been difficult to find high-level dragons on the Glazed Plane, let alone human-dragon hybrids.
After a while, a young man with a pair of dragon claws was brought to Li Nan.
It is Li Tian.
He turned his hands into dragon claws and dressed up as a half-animal dragon.
"oh."
Everyone gathered around.
"Is this a dragon claw? It looks very powerful."
Some people also expressed doubts: "Is this really a dragon claw?"
Li Nan hooked his hand and asked Li Tian to pass.
"Let me see your dragon claws." Li Nan said.
Li Tian nodded, and then stretched out the dragon claw in front of Li Nan.
Li Nan checked it carefully and then said: "This is a genuine dragon claw."
He was a little excited, pointed to a big tree next to him and said, "Come on, try it."
Li Tian walked to the big tree as thick as a bucket, and then lightly scratched it with the dragon's claw. The hard tree was as brittle as a piece of paper under Li Tian's dragon claw.
"Wow! This is too sharp!"
Li Nan looked at Li Tian, and then suddenly said: "Come with me."
Later, Li Tian followed Li Nan into a camp.
"What's your name?" Li Nan asked.
"Li Tian."
"Your surname is Li too?"
"Yes."
"What a coincidence, my surname is also Li." Li Nan said.
"I know." Li Tiandao.
"Hmm..." Li Nan's pupils shrank slightly. He looked at Li Tian and said, "Which army did you run away from? Why did you run away?"
"I escaped from Hongchen's army. I ran away to survive." Li Tiandao.
"How to say?"
"Those monsters want to chop off my dragon claws. They say that my human organs are not worthy of the dragon claws." Li Tiandao.
When Li Nan heard this, he became furious: "Fart! If you ask me, the organs of their demon race are not worthy of our human race!"
After saying that, Li Nan realized what he was doing. He looked at Li Tian and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to discriminate against you half-orcs, I just..."
He paused and sighed: "I'm just angry. Humans and demons are all creatures in this world, but those guys always treat us as monsters and even treat us as food."
Li Tian also sighed: "It's okay for you, but the fate of us orcs is even worse."
His eyes were confused: "What should I do in the future? I can't see the future at all."
"Not only you half-orcs, we humans also don't see any hope." Li Nan sighed softly: "Those demon clans don't regard us as the same kind in their bones."
"After all, we are indeed not the same kind as them. There is an old saying that those who are not from our race must have different hearts. Those monster races definitely don't trust us." Li Tiandao.
Li Nan fell silent after hearing this.
Li Tian's words once again reminded him of his experiences in the tenth district of the Demon Realm over the years.
After a long time, Li Nan sighed: "But now, what else can we do?"
"me..."
Li Tian hesitated.
"What's wrong? What do you want to do?" Li Nan asked again.
Li Tian seemed to have gathered up the courage, and then said: "I want to go to the human race. Although there is also discrimination against orcs there, the human race is a highly intelligent race after all, and can at least communicate. I also heard that,
Compared with the previous human dynasty, the current Star Empire of the human race is very friendly to monsters and orcs. I want to go there."
He paused and suddenly said: "Um, Lord Li Nan, haven't you ever thought about leaving the Demon Realm?"
Li Nan suddenly seemed to be struck by something in his heart, and his whole body was stunned.
"Speaking of which, I really haven't thought about leaving the Demon Realm."
In the past, he had listened to the political propaganda of the 10th District of the Demon Realm since he was a child. He was full of hostility towards the human empire on the opposite side and wanted to protect his hometown from the evil hands of the empire.
He has been working hard for this.
But until now, he has been unable to do anything.
Instead, I made myself exhausted and discouraged.
Li Nan looked in the direction of the Human Race's Starry Empire, with a hint of confusion in his eyes: "What kind of world is the Empire?"
"I haven't been there either, but I heard from my friends that it is a very beautiful world, rich and prosperous, and all races live in harmony. Many people who escaped from the Demon Realm to the Empire live very happily."
Li Tian quietly turned on the brainwashing mode.
Li Nan was indeed a little excited.
In the past, Li Nan would have simply ignored it.
But after living for hundreds of years and getting used to the bullying of humans by monsters, he had actually planted the seeds of hatred in his heart, but no one sprinkled water on the seeds, so that the seeds of hatred could not grow up.
And Li Tian brought ‘water’.
"But a soldier like me will be arrested even if he escapes to the empire." Li Nan added.
"It would be great if I could get a certificate of investment." Li Tian said again.
"Certificate of Voting?"
Li Nan didn't know what he was thinking of, and then looked in the direction of Zhuque Mountain.
However, he didn't say anything, but said: "Just stay here for now."
"Thanks."
After another day passed, Li Nan came to Li Tian's hiding place.
"Just now, two monsters from the Hongchen Army came to ask about you..."
"What?" Li Tian's face changed drastically: "They know that I escaped here? Is there anyone who snitched here?"
"Well, it's just a routine inquiry. Half-orcs like you were captured privately by Hongchen's soldiers, and there is no formal establishment. Hongchen probably doesn't even know you exist."
Li Tian paused, and then said: The two monsters that came today, a lightning black eagle and a rat monster, are not high in realm, one is in the Golden Core realm and the other is in the Nascent Soul realm. Although the realm is not high, they are still
He was quite smart. He tried to trick me in various ways, but I still fooled him. Don't worry, it's okay." Li Nan comforted him.
Phew~
Li Tian breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's it."
Li Nan looked at Li Tian again, and then suddenly said: "To be honest, I once suspected that you were a spy sent by the human race to alienate and divide us. The story of escaping from the Hongchen Army was false. However, looking at it now
It seems real. I don’t know much about that rat demon, but it is absolutely impossible for an unruly creature like the Lightning Black Eagle to cooperate with humans.”
"Ah, have you ever doubted me?"
Li Nan shrugged: "Don't mind, this is a battlefield, and there are too many intrigues. But..."
He paused, and then said: "As you said before, do you have any plans to defect to the Xingyao Empire? The idea of sneak attack from behind is not bad, but Hongchen is a careful person, maybe he is already on guard against us.
.Even if he didn't guard us, we still wouldn't win. Hongchen's troops are all tempered in wars and have extremely strong combat effectiveness. With my novice troops who have never been on the battlefield, I'm afraid..."
"To capture the thief, capture the king first. As long as Hong Chen is killed, the rest will be easy to handle."
Li Tian found a very fatal flaw in the demon army through recent battles with the demon army and recalling some of the memories of Demon Emperor Kun.
That means relying too much on the commander.
After all, the average IQ of the demon race is not high, not even half of the average IQ of the human race.
In the monster army, there are many soldiers who belong to the monster race with low IQ. They can understand orders and are even brave and fearless, but they lack the ability to think independently. Once the commander dies, they will fall into confusion and confusion.
Being overwhelmed leads to collapse.
Just like a few days ago, I co-acted in a play with Qiuqiu and Xiaohei.
When Qiuqiu and Xiao Hei, as commanders, died suddenly on the battlefield, the monster troops were immediately defeated.
Of course, the demon clan is also aware of their shortcomings, so their generals generally do not take the initiative to participate in battles, but strategize from behind.
After listening to Li Tian's suggestion, Li Nan's eyes lit up, but then he shook his head: "You may not know Hongchen, even though he rarely goes to the front line to fight, but that person is a strong man in the late stage of the Tribulation.
, I am afraid that my combat power has reached the state of perfecting the Tribulation. Not to mention one me, even two of me, will be killed by him. Moreover, he is extremely cautious, and it would be too difficult to kill him alone."
"In fact, it's not difficult." Li Tian paused, and then said: "Just tell him that you found the descendants of Demon Emperor Kun, and he will definitely come over, and he doesn't dare to bring anyone over. After all, this
This is no small matter. If people knew that Demon Emperor Kun had descendants, it would probably cause a sensation in the entire Demon Realm."
Li Nan:...
"You don't want to pretend to be a descendant of Demon Emperor Kun, do you?"
Li Tian smiled, then shook his two dragon claws: "Can't you just pretend?"
"Well..."
Li Nan's eyes flickered, and finally he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!"
Zhuque Mountain Monster Clan Defense Zone.
In a very secluded cave, a man in his forties was looking at the sand table in front of him.
This kind of battlefield sandbox, which is very popular in earth wars, is also very popular even in other worlds.
This man is the transformed human being.
Hongchen's body is a silver-light rat, which is the king beast race among rat demons. His talent is fast speed, which can be described as "fast as lightning".
At this time, a communication came in.
"Li Nan? What does he want to do?"
Hongchen actually didn't want to answer the call, but rejecting a call from a friendly leader on the battlefield was a criminal offence.
Therefore, although he felt unhappy, he still accepted Li Nan's communication.
Immediately, Li Nan's virtual figure appeared on the communication array.
"Li Nan, are you okay?" Hongchen said calmly.
"Well, there's something I don't know who to tell."
"What's up?"
"That's right, there is a dragon man who claims to be a descendant of Demon Emperor Kun..."
