Chapter 776: Variables
Wu Zhongyuan said, Zhu Qianwei didn't answer, he didn't know why Wu Zhongyuan suddenly left at such a critical juncture, but he believed that Wu Zhongyuan naturally had his reasons for doing this.
At this time, the enchantment has been closed again, Wu Zhongyuan looked around, Xuanwu's scattered power self-explosion was amazing, there were a large number of casualties on both sides, the specific number could not be estimated, but the death toll was definitely more than half of the total strength of both sides, and the corpses of the entire Beiguan were all over the field, and there was a wail.
The casualties were so heavy, but it was already a blessing in misfortune, if it weren't for the fact that he had laid down the aura barrier before the Xuanwu Sangong self-detonated, which offset part of the might, the death toll would have been more than now.
In order to prevent the demon king from getting out of trouble, Xuanwu did not hesitate to blow himself up, and did not hesitate to affect the thousands of defenders in Beiguan, which shows that Xuanwu knows better than anyone the consequences of the demon king's early escape, the balance is broken, the short-term advantage is lost, it is too late to make full preparations, and the situation is completely out of control.
Dasha had been rushing to kill on the periphery of the Xuanwu aura barrier before, and his skin was rough and his flesh was thick, so although he was knocked away by the violent qi waves, it was not a big problem, and at this time, he had already kicked and grabbed from the corpse pile and turned over.
After a short observation, Wu Zhongyuan was sure that he could control the situation, so he extended his aura to lay a spiritual qi barrier from the barrier, and turned to Zhu Qianwei and said, "I have other things to do, I'll leave it to you here." ”
Without waiting for Zhu Qianwei to answer, Wu Zhongyuan teleported and disappeared.
There are two reasons why he is so eager, one is that he is to blame for the demon king's escape, and the changes in Xinyue Island and the ghost city are all means for the enemy to confuse his mind, the purpose is to lure him away from Beiguan, he is very clear about the other party's purpose, but he still made a choice, and it is his choice that caused the demon king to get out of trouble, if he doesn't go, Xuanwu will not blow himself up in desperation, and he will not have such heavy casualties. In a sense, the escape of the demon king, the self-explosion of Xuanwu, and the heavy casualties of his own warriors and soldiers were all caused by him.
The second reason is that at this time, Xinyue Fox and the others are still in the Northwest Desert, and he must go to pick them up. Qiqi is still fighting on Xinyue Island, and he also has to go over to finish up the aftermath. And there is an iron coffin in the ghost town, if you rush over in time, you may be able to find it. The losses are already very serious and cannot be made up, and the only thing that can be done at this time is to minimize the losses.
The first place Wu Zhongyuan went to was Xinyue Island, Xinyue Island had settled at this time, and all the humanoid aquatic tribes that had invaded the island had withdrawn into the sea, and there were only dozens of corpses left on the island that had appeared in their original form after death.
The dust on Xinyue Island does not mean that the war is over, and the waves of blood are rolling in the sea a few miles to the east of Xinyue Island.
Wu Zhongyuan's mood was extremely low, and he had no intention of killing these insignificant minions, and after a short observation, he teleported and came to the Northwest Desert.
When he arrived, the three of them were looking at the Xinyue Fox lying on the ground, while the frightened child daughter-in-law was struggling with her teeth on the side, trying to get rid of Wu Di's aura.
Seeing Wu Zhongyuan returning, the three of them moved their eyes from the body of the heart moon fox to Wu Zhongyuan's face at the same time.
There is no need to ask, just look at Wu Zhongyuan's expression, and the three of them know that something is wrong.
Although he had already guessed the result, Li Wanzi still asked, "How is the situation in Beiguan?"
"The Demon King escaped," Wu Zhongyuan said, and after that, he added, "Xuanwu Sangong blew himself up and killed many people, but fortunately, Zhu Qianwei was sent out before Xuanwu Sangong blew himself up, saving his life." ”
Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, Li Wanzi frowned tightly and sighed long.
"Who is this woman?" Wang Xinran pointed to the heart moon fox.
"She is the Heart Moon Fox, the woman of the God King Bai Mu. Wu Zhongyuan replied calmly, and at the same time, his right hand reached out, and he sent the Xinyue Fox back to Xinyue Island in an instant, and then sent the little guy who had been struggling back.
"I'm going to settle them down first, and I'll be back soon. Wu Zhongyuan said.
After the three of them nodded, Wu Zhongyuan teleported back to Xinyue Island, recalled Qiqi, and ordered him to clean up the corpses on the island and protect Xinyue Fox tightly.
Before leaving, he once again laid an aura barrier for Xinyue Island, and then returned to the Northwest Desert without giving up.
After suffering such a big defeat, Wang Xinran and the others can imagine their feelings, seeing Wu Zhongyuan returning, they didn't know how to comfort him, they just stood silently and sighed helplessly.
Wu Zhongyuan said with a strong spirit, "I'll send you back to Youxiong to recuperate from your injuries first." ”
"My goose phoenix bow has been lost from the Southern Wilderness, send me to find it. Li Wanzi said.
Wu Di said, "Let's go back to the Southern Wilderness with you to find the iron coffin." ”
"Let's go, let's go back to the ghost town first. Wang said happily.
Wu Zhongyuan did not try to persuade, and sent the three of them back to the ghost city in an instant, and he did not send the three back to the ruins of the ghost city, but sent them to the high places in Jiangbei.
Seeing off the three of them, Wu Zhongyuan then teleported to the top of the cliff in Jiangbei, where the terrain was relatively flat, Wu Zhongyuan sat on the ground and took a long breath.
Until this time, he was stunned, this disaster is too big, as the saying goes, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, this sentence is also applicable to the enemy, although the demon king's Yuan Ying is weak at this time, but as long as it takes time, he can restore the Shangyuan cultivation and reincarnate the body, and then it will be even more helpless.
In addition, it was the demon alliance that helped the demon king get out of trouble together, which shows that the demon and the demon have formed an alliance, and the demon king will be released immediately after resuming his cultivation, and the demon king is Shangyuan Xiuwei, not to mention the warriors and soldiers stationed in Xiguan, even if he is not the opponent of the demon king, the demon king can do whatever he wants.
The previous turbulent river was done by the South China Sea Dragon Clan, and as the Dragon Clan retreated, the flood had also receded, Li Wanzi left the cliff to find the lost Yan Feng Bow, Wu Di went to look for the iron coffin, and only Wang Xinran stayed next to Wu Zhongyuan.
Although he stayed, Wang Xinran did not speak, but took out the cigarette case and wanted to smoke, but the cigarette box he touched was already wet with water, and all the cigarettes inside were soaked.
Wu Zhongyuan had condensed a cigarette before, so he condensed a cigarette with his aura and raised his hand to hand it to Wang Xinran.
Wang Xinran stretched out his hand to take it, bit it in his mouth and tried to ignite it, but the lighter was damp and couldn't hit.
Seeing her like this, Wu Zhongyuan had to stretch out his right index finger and spawn a fire to light a cigarette for him.
"What do you think of this matter?" Wu Zhongyuan looked at Wang Xinran.
"You know better than I do. Wang Xinran was also very calm.
"Is my choice right or wrong?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
Wang Xinran took a deep breath and slowly exhaled the smoke, "Whether it is right or wrong depends on whose position it stands on, I once told you twice that as long as you fight, people will die, and you must be mentally prepared to lose us." ”
"What's the point of me winning this war if you're all dead. Wu Zhongyuan said.
"If you keep thinking like this, you won't be able to fight this battle," Wang said happily, "There are too many people the enemy can use to contain you, and you want to keep everyone, and in the end, no one can save them." ”
Wu Zhongyuan was silent.
Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan was under a lot of psychological pressure, Wang Xinran comforted, "Don't think about it so much, just run, anyway, sooner or later they will have to run, but a few months in advance." ”
"Comforting people can't avoid the important and trivialize, confuse the facts, and can't deceive themselves," Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and said, "The demon king is out of trouble, and with strong foreign aid from the outer way, the role of the Quartet battalion that I spent a lot of manpower and material resources to build to block and intercept will be greatly reduced." ”
"The Quartet camp did cost a lot of manpower and material resources, but they still have value for existence," Wang Xinran said, "Chongzhen listened to Yuan Chonghuan's suggestion and used the strength of the whole country to build a strong defense line from Liaodong, but as a result, the Qing troops bypassed Mongolia, which directly turned the defense line built by the Ming Dynasty into a waste, compared to them, you are still very lucky, only one ran, and the other three places still have existential value, and the demon clan only ran the demon king, and the large army is still trapped inside." ”
"If the Demon King recovers his cultivation, he can kill all the defenders of the Northern Army camp with his own strength. Wu Zhongyuan was worried.
"How long will it take for the Demon King to recover his cultivation?" Wang Xinran asked.
Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and said, "It's hard to say, there are a lot of variables, but I don't think it should be more than a month." ”
"So fast?" Wang was surprised.
"This is also my credit," Wu Zhongyuan smiled bitterly, "It used to pretend to be the Beast King before, and deceived me of some pills here, among which there is a Jade Void Pill, which appeared when we fought for the yellow deer near the sand castle, it is the Jade Void Cultivation, and the body controlled by its Yuan Shen can also be possessed and refined by the Yuan Infant." ”
"Things have already happened, it's useless for you to worry," Wang said happily, "There is no endless road, calm down first, and slowly think of a way." ”
"I can't escape the blame for Xuanwu's death. Wu Zhongyuan said.
"You left Beiguan to save us," Wang said happily, "and I don't have the face to answer your words when you say that." ”
"You and I should save you, I don't regret this," Wu Zhongyuan said, "The key is that I wasted a few minutes on Xinyue Island, but I did what I was entrusted with and loyal, but the price I paid was too great." ”
Wang Xinran threw away the cigarette butt and said, "Don't doubt yourself, your problem is that you are too young, I say that you are young does not mean that you are immature, but that you have not experienced many things, sudden contact always requires a process of adaptation, they are all old monsters who have lived for thousands of years, and fighting with you is originally bullying you, and it is already very unfair to you to have such an opponent, let alone five." ”
Hearing Wang Xinran's words, Wu Zhongyuan's heart was slightly lighter, "I seriously underestimated them before, and after contacting them, I found that they were more terrifying and smarter than I imagined, just like this matter, the control of time, the grasp of the heat, the score is exactly the same, it can be called a careful thinking and terrifying ......"
