In the gap area in the rain forest, a human army of about 7,000 people was marching forward in the humid and hot air.
Above them, in the gaps between the dense leaves on the upper level of the tree canopy, two figures floated there, looking around with vigilant eyes as they flew forward quickly with the large army.
This force is naturally the parliamentary guard army that has just escaped from the endless pursuit of demons. Since they defeated the last interception of about three thousand sheep-headed demon army in the dense forest one day ago, they have been traveling all the way.
Since then, we have rarely been intercepted by large groups of monsters.
This place is already very close to the ruins of the old city of Jikul, and the shielding and driving away effects of the holy object Jidebin are slowly beginning to take effect. Coupled with the help of the assassin Evan's shadow control, they will be able to officially enter Jide soon.
The guest's protective barrier is within.
"I just received the news a few days ago that the Demon Slayer Legion seems to have suffered some defeats on the front line..."
In the legion team, the legendary assassin Finn chatted with Evan, another legendary assassin next to him, with a somewhat worried expression.
"General Hoch is a very good commander, and his Demon Slayer Legion is also the elite on the front line of the Second World. However, victory and defeat are commonplace for military strategists. No one can be a victorious general forever, let alone General Hoch.
In the end, we managed to save the entire Demon Slayer Legion from any major losses, so we can’t even call it a failure.”
Evan looked around with an indifferent expression, the silver light in his hand flashed rapidly, and strange-shaped silver triangles were thrown into the grass around him.
"Well, I also believe that General Hoch will never give up like this... However, the intelligence shows that the demon army has sent reinforcements to the middle of the rain forest after occupying Kurim, which will put more pressure on us.
ah!"
Finn kept walking, and strange blade lights flashed around him. Occasionally, a few blade lights shot into the surrounding jungle like sharp arrows, and soon the shrill wails of monsters dying came from the forest.
.
"There are only ten thousand sheep-headed demon clones, and it seems that they were ambushed by the Storm Queen. How effective can this small force be if it is spread out in such a large rainforest?
It is slightly insufficient to defend the strategic location. It can be seen that the commander of the demon army has not thought of a good way to build enough ships in a short time. Otherwise, I am afraid that an entire elite army of demon clones will be transferred back this time!"
Evan shook his head absentmindedly. The shadows around him were hesitating, sometimes flying around to block the sunlight filtering through the leaves, and sometimes gathering in one place to form a dark wall of shadows.
"I hope General Hodge can act soon, otherwise our plan to attack the Kurast seaport may be greatly affected..."
"Wait! What's going on? Why did you stop?" Finn frowned as he spoke, turned his feet and jumped back slightly, and the whole person disappeared directly into the shadows.
Shadows rose up under Evan's feet, instantly submerging him in the shade of the trees. The two legendary assassins prepared for battle almost at the same time.
But soon, Zhuo Genan, who was suspended in mid-air on alert, fell directly from the shade of the tree.
"The alert is cancelled, we are here, and Asila is in contact with the survivors in Jikul."
"Really? That's great, we can finally take a rest..." The two assassins reappeared from the shadows, Evan nodded to Drognan, and Finn breathed a sigh of relief.
said.
"Send some people to clean up the back to cover up our whereabouts. We can't take the risk of exposing Jikuer." Farah also quickly fell from the air, and there was an ice sculpture as high as one person suspended next to him.
The legendary Amazon Evil Contractor who was unlucky enough to be captured.
"We've already sent people... Let's get ready to go in. Asilah sent someone over to call us."
Brandt appeared in the electric light. He nodded slightly to several people, and then directly waved his hand to signal the professional legionnaires who were resting in place to leave.
Under the notice of the messenger, the Parliament Guard Corps took action again. They quickly passed through an invisible magic barrier and entered a vast city ruins.
This is Jikul, a city once founded by Kurast survivors to replace the Kurast shopping mall.
In fact, frankly speaking, the Jikul ruins are not ruins. At best, it can only be said to be a dead city with no human habitation. There are even many fishermen who store their fish here near the dock of Jikul near the Zuraka River.
Fishing nets and fishing gear.
Geographically, Jikul is not far from the seaport of Kurast, but the raging Zulaka River blocks the two cities, making the transportation between the two cities not as convenient as imagined.
After the fall of the Kurast seaport, Jikul was also searched extensively by the demon forces chasing survivors. However, due to the protection of Jidbin's power, the demons only saw what Omas wanted them to see.
, so the survivors of Kurast were able to survive this disaster.
Although this abandoned empty city is very large, the power of Gidbin can only limitedly shield and mislead the demons who come to search. It cannot make the people in the city completely invisible. Therefore, if there is too much noise, it can still
There is still a possibility that the winged demon flying in the sky will detect the clues.
Therefore, the professional warriors of the Parliament Guard Corps had no choice but to enter the underground waterways of Jikul and temporarily station themselves under the leadership of Asila and others.
Fortunately, this city was abandoned not long after it was built, so the sewers here are quite clean. Apart from being a little cold and damp, there is no unpleasant smell or disgusting filth. The soldiers of the Professional Legion are also
They are veterans who have been trained in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and they are very satisfied with this environment.
After settling a group of legionnaires, several legendary strongmen, led by Asila, met the legendary "Riddle Monk" who had the ability to speak and relied on this ability to protect most of the elite class in Kurast Port.
Omas.
"Hahaha! Omus, you old monster, I already knew that you have extraordinary abilities, but I didn't expect that you still surprised me this time!"
As soon as Farah saw Omas, he laughed loudly and greeted him. The two of them had served on the front line of the Second World at the same time, and their relationship with each other could be regarded as very good comrades-in-arms.
This time Omas and many residents of Kurast Seaport successfully escaped under Mephisto's nose, making Farah very proud of him.
"All sages, the seaport of Kurast should not have suffered such a catastrophe. There is a destiny in the world, and I am just following nature... It's just a pity for the innocent people who were buried in the city.
..."
Omus stepped away from Gidebin, turned around and faced them, his tone was calm with a hint of compassion, and the expression on his face was also very regretful.
"Don't be sad. You've done a good enough job. Who knows what methods those hell bastards used to suddenly bring so many demon clones to the first world?"
Zhuo Genan also walked over and gently patted his old friend on the shoulder.
"Mr. Omas, we have successfully brought back Lan Yisen's ancient book... It's just..."
Ocaso stepped forward at this time and said to Omas with a somewhat anxious expression.
Behind him, the ice shaper held the huge ancient book emitting light blue light with a complicated expression on his face, and the expression on his face seemed a little uneasy.
Seeing this scene, Omus sighed softly.
"Hey... I originally planned to go there in person... I didn't expect things to develop to this point... Sage Marien, you..."
"Needless to say... Since this is already the case, then all this must be an arrangement of fate. When that time comes, I will naturally not let down everyone's trust..."
