Chapter 15: The Stronghold

The five masters and apprentices followed the large army and walked into the spatial crack one after another.

Meng Fan suddenly felt that the light and darkness in front of him flickered, as if the entire space was constantly changing, and he even felt that he had been hanging in the air.

After about ten seconds, he finally felt his feet on the ground.

"Hoo ......"

In the next moment, Meng Fan only felt the cold wind, the biting cold, so that he couldn't help but shiver a few times one after another, but fortunately, there were a few backpacks behind him, which could barely make him feel a little warmth.

When he looked up, he saw a vast expanse of white snow.

"I forgot to remind you, the exit of the spatial rift is a snowfield, although the temperature is not as low as the North and South Poles, but it is basically kept below zero, and the impact on the martial artists is not great, but ordinary people will not be able to bear it. ”

Huang Yunqing's eyes looked at Meng Fan and spoke.

After a pause, she continued: "However, there is an old saying that the heavens will descend on the people, and they must first work their minds and muscles, so this is also a test for you, and at the same time, it can also temper your body and will, which is a rare opportunity." ”

Meng Fan: "......"

This teacher of his, in addition to the advantage of protecting the short, how can he feel a little unreliable.

"If you become a real martial artist, even if you are only a beginner martial artist, you will not care about this coldness. ”

Liu Rong glanced at Meng Fan and said, "When you get to the stronghold, you can buy a set of warm clothes made of fire ape skin, anyway, you have money now." ”

"Money can be used here, too?"

Meng Fan asked with some surprise when he heard this.

"The stronghold is full of our Huaguo warriors, why can't they be used?"

Liu Rong asked rhetorically.

"The actual situation here cannot be found on the Internet, only people who have been here know about it. ”

Liu Rong continued: "All countries have established their own strongholds on this snowy field, and our Huaguo is naturally no exception, within the stronghold, we can freely trade the treasure resources we have obtained, and we can also exchange experiences and information with each other to explore this Tianxuan Continent. ”

"Even in times of danger, we can flee back to our stronghold and ask for help, where we are all outsiders and must unite to gain a foothold. ”

Hearing Liu Rong's words, Meng Fan nodded secretly in his heart.

It's not just a foreign country, it's another world, and if you don't get together, you may not be able to move an inch.

Even so, they were still confined to the Dry Domain, and they had to abide by the many rules that the Heavenly Xuanwu had set for them.

……

A moment later, the group came to the outside of the stronghold.

Hwaseong, this is the name of the Hwasakung stronghold, and it is also the only stronghold established here by the Hwasakung warriors.

Most of the Chinese warriors who came to the Tianxuan Continent would live here.

It is said to be a stronghold, but after ten years of development, it has become a city.

Although Huacheng is not as good as those fortified cities in Huaguo, it also has a scale of tens of miles in radius, and is also surrounded by a steel city wall as high as 100 zhang.

Not only did the city have more than 100,000 free warriors, but it also had a standing guard of 30,000 people.

Unlike the soldiers guarding outside the spatial rift, the soldiers here are all warriors, and they all use cold weapons such as swords.

Ordinary thermal weapons such as guns and cannons, although there are some, but they are not very effective, and at most they can threaten ordinary beasts and martial artists, especially when fighting in close combat, they are far less than sharp swords.

As for the strategic weapons such as missiles and nuclear weapons, they have not been delivered at all, because when they arrive, they are not as good as guns and cannons, and they are completely no different from scrap metal.

"Teacher Huang, welcome to you!"

At this time, a middle-aged man who looked like an officer greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Captain Xu Li, why are you here to pick us up?"

Huang Yunqing asked with some surprise.

"I happened to be free today, and I heard that you were going to bring students over for training, so I came to pick you up directly. ”

Xu Li's gaze stayed on Huang Yunqing's face for a few seconds before replying.

"Let's go. ”

Huang Yunqing nodded and said.

"Yes, come with me. ”

The smile on Xu Li's face was even bigger, and he nodded.

Immediately, under the guidance of Xu Li, the five of them walked towards the city.

……

A moment later, Xu Li took Meng Fan and the five people to a courtyard outside.

"There are quite a few rooms in the courtyard, you can choose to live in as many places as you like. ”

Xu Li said to Huang Yunqing: "This place is not as good as Huaguo, the conditions are a little simple, you can only make do with it." ”

"We are all martial artists, and we don't need to worry about some red tape, not to mention, it's already good to have a place to live here. ”

Huang Yunqing shook her head and said.

After that, she looked at Meng Fan again and asked, "Meng Fan, do you mind?"

"Teacher, of course I don't mind. ”

Meng Fan didn't hesitate and shook his head.

You women don't mind, what do I mind as a man?

What's more, it's not about sleeping in the same room.

"Captain Xu Li, what's the situation here now?"

Huang Yunqing's gaze turned to Xu Li and asked.

"It's not good. ”

Xu Li's face condensed slightly when he heard this, and he sighed: "More and more Tianxuan martial artists have joined forces to drive us away from the Tianxuan Continent, at first it was only a verbal conflict, and then it evolved into a direct fight, and now, the weaker Huaguo martial artists basically dare not go out of the city." ”

"Is this the case with the strongholds in other countries?"

Huang Yunqing asked in a deep voice.

"It's not much better than us, the strongholds of some countries have even been attacked by the Heavenly Xuanwu several times. ”

Xu Li nodded and said: "Now, it's really not a good time to practice, although there are still many Tianxuanwu people who are more friendly to us, but as long as we go out of Huacheng, there is a great chance of meeting martial artists who don't like us, if we are unlucky, if we meet those radical Tianxuanwu warriors, it will definitely be a bloody battle." ”

"Just a few hours ago, a team composed entirely of high-level martial artists, less than half an hour after leaving the city, was besieged by dozens of Heavenly Xuanwu Warriors, and none of them could come back alive. ”

Hearing Xu Li's words, Liu Rong, Zhao Yuelin, and Zhao Yuexuan's faces couldn't help but change.

If this is the case, with the strength of their beginner martial artists, wouldn't it be like asking for their own death when they came out of the stronghold?

"What, are you all scared?"

Seeing the faces of Liu Rong and the others, Huang Yunqing asked.

"Teacher, we are not afraid of death, but we don't want to die in vain. ”

Liu Rong replied directly.

"If we fight alone, we are killed by a martial artist of the same level, then we are only to blame that our skills are not as good as others, and our own fate should be like this, but if we are surrounded and killed by others, we are really unwilling. ”

Zhao Yuelin also spoke.

Zhao Yuexuan nodded again and again, expressing her full agreement with her sister's words.

"Don't worry, the teacher won't let you die, your strength is too weak to be a hero, but it is the responsibility of every one of us warriors to protect the family and defend the country, and none of you can hide from it. ”

Huang Yunqing said solemnly: "Therefore, in the next time, the teacher will do his best to help you cultivate, so that you can enter the martial artist level in the shortest possible time." ”
