Chapter Eighty-Six: The Mountain Armor

"The soldiers of Jinyang City are ready for battle!

"Yes!"

As General Zhang's order was issued, all the soldiers responded loudly, and then they showed their weapons and prepared to meet the enemy.

The two generals, Zhang and Wu, looked at the cracks that were constantly expanding in front of them, and they looked extremely calm on the surface, but in fact, their hearts had already raised their throats, and they were about to arrive under the gate of Hongyan City, but who knew that at this moment there was such a change, although they didn't know why such a situation happened underground, but they all clearly felt the danger signal coming from the underground.

As a beast roar came out of the crack, fear spread among tens of thousands of people, and the two generals, Zhang and Wu, both showed a look of despair in their eyes after hearing this huge roar.

"Grandpa, be careful, the demon beast is coming. Fluttershy nervously held Old Man Yin's hand, as a spirit cultivator, she had already known the danger of the crack when it was created, and at this moment she was standing in front of Old Man Yin, and the Wood Spirit True Qi in her hand was slowly moving.

When the roar of the beast dissipated, a huge claw stretched out from the crack, and then as the ground collapsed violently, a huge hole appeared in front of everyone, and the hands of the soldiers holding the weapons were already covered with green tendons, staring at the giant claw and not even daring to breathe.

In this tense atmosphere, a huge figure in the cave suddenly drilled out of the ground, General Zhang looked at the behemoth in front of him and couldn't help but gasp, it was a huge golden monster, a golden scale armor covered the whole body, four sharp and slender giant claws continued to leave deep cracks on the ground, different from the huge body, the head of this monster beast appeared very petite, but the fangs exposed between its lips and teeth showed its ferocity.

Fluttershy seems to recognize the monster's origins and exclaims, "It's a mountain carapace!"

Whether it was the two generals Zhang and Wu or the group of soldiers, they were all terrified after seeing the face of the mountain armor beast at this moment, this demon beast was as huge as a small mountain, where had the soldiers of the two cities who only hunted some weak demon beasts at most on weekdays seen such a creature, and at this time there were already some soldiers whose legs couldn't help but tremble!

General Zhang forcibly calmed down his mind, raised his sword high and pointed at the mountain armor beast, and then said loudly: "Brothers of the two cities, listen! Ahead is Hongyan City, if we retreat at this moment, we will definitely become food for this beast's mouth! We now have more than 2,000 heroic warriors, are we still afraid that this monster beast will not succeed? Now listen to my instructions! Send 500 people to escort the people to Hongyan City, and the remaining 1,500 people will follow me to meet the demon beast!"

"Yes!"

Under the encouragement of General Zhang, the soldiers who were originally timid once again raised the courage in their hearts, thinking that the tens of thousands of people in Jinyang City also have their own relatives and friends, and if they were soldiers in Jinyang City who did not even have this courage, then what could these unarmed people do? Under this thought, all the soldiers present responded to General Zhang's instructions in a loud voice and immediately began to act.

More than 500 soldiers began to cover the retreat of the people under the instructions of General Zhang, while the remaining soldiers surrounded the mountain armor beast, Xiao Fluttershy, who was with the old man Yin, looked at the group of Jinyang City soldiers who surrounded the mountain armor beasts, and felt conflicted, with her strength, it was not a problem to deal with this mountain armor beast, but the old man Yin was already old, if he left him in such a panic situation at this time, Xiao Fluttershy could not guarantee that he would be able to reach Hongyan City smoothly.

Although this mountain armor beast looks fierce, it actually does not have a lot of attack power, its ability is mainly reflected in the mountain and stone, and its golden scale armor, which provides it with strong defense, but it has an obvious weakness, that is, once it leaves the ground, it will become slow, with Fluttershy's strength, if you want to defeat it, it is naturally possible, but facing its scale armor defense will be delayed for a long time, if something happens to Old Man Yin during this time, this is unacceptable to Fluttershy。

So after a brief moment of hesitation, Fluttershy chooses to stay with Old Man Yin to keep him safe, as the soldiers are numbering in the thousands, and although there will be some casualties, it will be enough to defeat the mountain carapace.

At this time, the two generals, Zhang and Wu, had already commanded the soldiers to launch an attack on the mountain armor, just as Fluttershy expected, although the mountain armor looked fierce, in fact, in the face of the attack of such a large number of soldiers, its disadvantage was reflected, slow movements could not stop the attack from all directions, if it were not for its strong scale armor defense, it would have been stabbed by these soldiers all over the bloody hole.

Seeing that this behemoth turned out to be a useless guy, the soldiers of the two cities were in high spirits and continued to increase their attacks, and each attack was aimed at the place where the density of mountain armor and beast scale armor was the weakest. General Zhang and General Wu glanced at each other and saw the relieved look in each other's eyes, originally thought that this demon beast would pose a huge threat to their own people, but now it seems that they are just thinking too much, although there are still soldiers torn apart by the claws of the mountain armor, but this is much better than the casualties they expected.

Seeing that the scars on the mountain armor beast's body continued to increase and the breath continued to weaken, the two generals from different cities saw that this mountain armor beast had reached the end of the strong crossbow, and believed that after the next round of attacks, this demon beast would be killed.

Sure enough, just after another round of attacks by the soldiers, the beetle let out a miserable roar, and then the huge body fell to the side, blood continued to flow from its mouth, and the beetle beast died.

The cheers erupted among these soldiers with the death of the mountain armor, they could not have imagined that this demon beast would bring them a catastrophe, but who knew that it was so easy to deal with this monster beast that brought them great fear, and the excitement brought by the aftermath of the catastrophe and the killing of such a huge monster beast made them completely forget their previous fears, and celebrated excitedly at the moment.

Fluttershy, who had been paying attention to the situation from afar, was relieved the moment she saw the mountain beetle beast fall, and turned to look at the gate of Hongyan City, which was close at hand, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and when Old Man Yin heard Fluttershy's sigh, a pair of wrinkled hands rested on her shoulders, feeling the temperature from the palms of these hands, and Fluttershy smiled sweetly at Old Man Yin.

After the cheers of the soldiers, Zhang Jianjun and General Wu ordered them to rest for a while, and after helping the wounded soldiers to bandage their wounds, they set out to join the people in front.

Seeing the soldiers start to set off, General Zhang stood in front of the cave where the mountain armor beast appeared and looked at it, and then he felt a little wrong, and hurriedly bent down and put his ears on the ground, and then the horror that had already dissipated rose on his face again, and he was about to get up and inform the soldiers to be careful, but the next second General Zhang couldn't make a sound, only to see that in the cave, one after another demon beasts poured out of it, and one of the wolf-type demon beasts bit General Zhang's neck at the moment of jumping out, and he didn't even react to resist, and General Zhang died under the mouth of this monster beast。

Feeling the sound of footsteps behind him, the soldiers who had just evacuated turned around one after another, and after seeing the army of demon beasts that were black and oppressive, the despair was written on the faces of every soldier who was still excited just now, General Wu finally shouted a word of attack before his mind was covered by fear, and he was thrown to the ground and bitten to death by a rushing demon beast!

It was only five miles away from Hongyan City, and the people all showed excited expressions, they were forced to flee far from their hometowns, and in their hearts only within the high walls could guarantee their safety.

Fluttershy walks in the middle of the crowd with Old Man Yin in her arms, and at that moment, Fluttershy suddenly turns to look behind her, and after a few moments, Fluttershy looks horrified, and then shouts "Be careful, everyone!
