"It's getting late today, so rest for the day and head to the Ninth Region early tomorrow morning. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Wei Wen, the green-shirted young man, said a word, and turned to leave.

"Alright, you have a good rest today, and recharge your energy. Patrols will begin early tomorrow morning, and this is located on the border of our forces, and it is possible to encounter the enemy at any time, so we need to be vigilant. After Wei Wen left, Shi Mu turned around and said to the others.

The others nodded and went back to their rooms to rest.

Nothing was said all night.

Early the next morning, Shi Mu's team assembled the team early, left the stronghold, and headed towards the ninth area.

The nine areas near the stronghold are not only limited to the fragments of this planetary continent, but also a large area of star space near the fragments.

However, the ninth region that Shi Mu and the others are responsible for is on top of this continent fragment.

Half an hour later, the group arrived at the ninth area.

In front of me was a muddy swamp dotted with pools of various sizes, with lush aquatic plants on the surface of the water, and the occasional lone tree standing in it.

Occasionally, a series of blisters erupted in the water, and the air was filled with the rotting smell of the swamp.

After Shi Mu took a brief observation, he turned over his hand and took out a cyan triangle token, which was the thing that opened the illusion formation around the stronghold here, and of course it also had other functions.

He injected true qi, and a blue light lit up on the token, and the "buzz" flickered for a while.

Soon, a team emerges from the distant sky and shoots towards it.

The number of people in this team was a little smaller than Shi Mu's team, including the captain, who was only nine people, and the captain was a Heavenly Disciple of the Lichen Sect.

Shi Mu briefly handed over to the other captain, and the team left, according to which the leader said that there was nothing abnormal in the past month.

"Okay, let's start patrolling, in groups of two, in a line, no more than ten miles from each other. Shi Mu said.

The others nodded when they heard this, and they scattered, releasing their divine senses, and flying tentatively towards the front.

The group quickly flew into the swamp and vanished.

In the blink of an eye, a few days later, Shi Mu and the others also inspected the ninth area, and they had roughly figured out the situation here.

Sector 9 is very large, except for the vast swamps in that area, there are other places, and a third of the debris of the planet is in Sector 9.

In the past few days, there has been no unusual situation, but the vegetation here is luxuriant, and there are quite a few strange poisonous insects and beasts, which have brought some trouble to everyone.

However, everyone is also not low, and this little trouble is nothing.

Now that he had mastered the situation in the Ninth Region, Shi Mu had no intention of continuing to patrol with everyone like this, after all, the area of the Ninth Region was too large, and if they were to patrol together, they would not be able to play a role at all.

The group deliberated carefully, and everyone dispersed, scattered throughout the Ninth Sector.

The purple-armored man in the stronghold was also arranged in this way.

It's a lot more dangerous, but it's a battlefield, and there's not much to worry about.

In the swamp, a faint shadow clung to the ground and flew slowly.

This shadow was naturally Shi Mu, and he put on that invisible cloak.

As the captain, he patrolled the most dangerous areas.

After flying for a while, Shi Mu landed in a fairly clean place in the swamp and rested for a while.

He didn't take off his cloak and looked into the depths of the sea of stars.

In the sky at the end of the field of vision, a black cloud could be faintly seen, and that was where the spatial passage connecting the black magic space was located.

After looking at it for a moment, Shi Mu sighed and withdrew his gaze.

Although he has only been on the front line for a few days, he has already learned a lot.

The Three Holy Land Alliances don't seem to have made any big moves, and they don't have the feeling of gathering all their strength to fight a decisive battle with the Black Demon Clan.

And the Black Demon clan doesn't seem to be in a hurry to expand, the two sides are fighting a protracted war, and this war really doesn't know when it will end.

Shi Mu shook his head and stopped thinking about this.

He moved, and was about to continue his rounds.

At this moment, his face changed slightly, and he suddenly turned to look in one direction, and then his figure without saying a word flickered, turned into a ghost, and flew there silently.

In the swamp dozens of miles away, a strange beast slowly approached the swamp.

The beast was pitch black, and its body looked like a fierce tiger, but its head was far more hideous than that of ordinary tigers, with a neck full of pitch-black bone spurs, and a pair of eyes that were red and black, and it looked around alertly.

The black monster exuded a strange aura, and the surrounding poisonous insects stayed away from the beast and did not dare to approach.

The beast moved unusually carefully, and with a movement of its limbs, it crossed a small stream.

But at this moment, a spear made of blue water condensed silently appeared, and stabbed the black monster's neck like lightning.

The water gun was so tough and sharp that it poked its head out of the other end of the black beast's neck with a pop and pinned the black monster to the ground.

The black monster let out a roar from its mouth, and its four hooves clawed wildly on the ground, grabbing a large pit in the blink of an eye.

But the blue water gun didn't let up at all, and a large area of pitch-black liquid gushed out of the black monster's wound, which seemed to be the blood of the monster.

Soon, the monster slowed down and stopped moving.

The flowing water spear collapsed with a clatter, and a figure appeared next to the black monster, naturally Shi Mu.

"It's ...... Monster ......" he muttered as he looked at the black monster on the ground.

Although he has not been on the front line for a long time, he has also heard a lot of magical powers of the Black Demon Clan, one of which is to raise all kinds of magical beasts for fighting, exploration, searching and so on.

Shi Mu looked around, and at the same time released his divine sense, enveloping a radius of dozens of miles.

He frowned, but he didn't notice the slightest abnormality within the scope of his divine sense.

He groaned for a moment, took out the golden token, and sent a message to Wei Wen, telling him about the black ** beast.

"It's okay, I heard you say that the appearance of the black ** beast should be the lion roar beast, this beast is a demonic beast used for exploration, and the black demon clan often releases this kind of demonic beast into our territory. A moment later, Wei Wen replied with a message.

Seeing this, Shi Mu breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand and shot out two fireballs, turning the corpse of the black ** beast into ashes, and then continued to patrol.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, a month passed, and Shi Mu's team was also transferred from the ninth region to the eighth region.

The Eighth Region is another continental fragment, thousands of miles in size, and the terrain above it is very different from the Ninth Region, with countless lakes scattered on it, and the water vapor is extremely high.

Shi Mu stood above a large lake, looking at the environment in front of him, and the others stood behind him.

In the past month, Shi Mu has either experienced it himself, or consulted Wei Wen and others, and has learned a lot about the affairs of the front line and the Black Demon Clan, and has increased a lot of knowledge.

In the past month, the vicinity of the stronghold has been relatively calm, and nothing major has happened.

"As before, let's all scout the area together, and then patrol them separately. Shi Mu said.

The rest of the team agreed, lined up, and flew forward.

......

In the fifth area, a team was patrolling, and the leader was a white-clothed young man, a Heavenly Rank monk of the Cloud Chaser Sword Sect.

The fifth area is full of rolling hills, and the stone is black, I don't know what material it is.

The group flew near a black mountain peak, and at this moment, the ground at the bottom of the mountain peak cracked with a bang, and countless black qi gushed out from it, condensing into a big black hand, overwhelmingly grabbing towards the group.

"Demon Qi! It's the Black Demon Clan!" the group was shocked and dispersed.

The white-clothed young man who led the team let out a long roar, the white light flashed in his hand, and an extra white jade long sword appeared, and with a sudden swing, a huge sword qi was slashed, and a huge wound was cut out of the big black hand, almost cut in half.

Without waiting for the young man in white to be happy, the big black hand suddenly bulged, and then burst open, turning into black gas, instantly enveloping more than a dozen people inside.

More than a dozen blood-red shadows appeared in the black, and each shadow pounced on one of the people in the team separately, extremely fast, like a poisonous snake spitting out letters, and lightning wrapped around these people, even the young man in white was not spared.

The red shadow flashed directly through the protective light of these people and submerged into their bodies.

The group's bodies suddenly stiffened, their eyes showed a look of fear, and the next moment their bodies shriveled down at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The white-clothed young man was the highest in cultivation, and a burst of bright white light appeared on his body, resisting a few breaths, but he was still swallowed by the red shadow.

His head tilted, and a token fell from his hand.

......

In the room on the top floor of the stronghold, the purple-armored man handled all kinds of matters as usual.

At this moment, the door was pushed open, and Wei Wen walked in with a panicked face.

"Chief, it's not good!"

"What happened, so alarmed?" asked the Purple Armored Man with a frown.

"Just now, all the teams in the Fifth Region lost contact!" Wei Wen said.

"What!" the purple armored man looked startled and suddenly stood up.

"Do you know what's going on?" he asked quickly.

"I don't know, I only received a distress message from the leader of the Fifth Region team, and then there was no news, and the message didn't say anything about what happened. Wei Wen said.

When the purple armored man heard this, he frowned and groaned.

"Chief, what now, do you want to send the team that is now resting in the stronghold to the fifth area to investigate?" Wei Wen asked.

"Okay, do that right now, and send the two teams from the ninth and eighth districts over at the same time, and make sure to find out what's going on in the fifth region. The purple armored man said in a deep voice.

Wei Wen immediately agreed, turned around and hurried to make arrangements.

......

In the eighth area, the Shi Mu team is patrolling the entire area, speeding over a lake.

At this moment, Shi Mu flipped with one hand, and a golden token appeared in his hand in a flash, and a line of small words appeared on it.

He just swept his gaze, and his face suddenly changed.

"Captain, what's going on?"

"Something happened in the Fifth Sector, and all the teams patrolling there suddenly disappeared, and the leader sent us and two other teams to investigate the situation. Shi Mu said.

Hearing this, everyone in the team looked at each other.

"How could he suddenly disappear? Even if he encounters a strong enemy and is killed, at least one person in the team will have to send a message to explain the situation. Guo Shen said. (To be continued.) )
