Chapter 48: The Beast Tide Strikes

At ten o'clock in the evening, when Zao Wou-Ki was in retreat and cultivating, suddenly, he heard the sound of devouring the sky.

"Big brother, big brother, there is a tide of monsters and beasts on the side of the barbarians, and those monsters and beasts are coming towards Zhennan County!"

When Zao Wou-Ki heard this, his face changed greatly.

He had heard before that the area south of Zhennan County was a place where demon beasts gathered, and there were many human races who wanted to open up to the southern region step by step, but when they entered the southern region, they found that they had no way to survive there.

The most bizarre thing is that the underground in the southern region will release a kind of poisonous gas from time to time, this poisonous gas is extremely poisonous, once a person inhales, if he is not treated in time within half an hour, then this person will die after half an hour.

And the southern region is full of high mountains, continuous mountains, and those mountains are a particularly solid rock and iron rock.

Although this rock is not steel, it is as hard as steel.

Therefore, there is no way for the Terrans to develop the southern region into a suitable place for the Terrans to live, and the southern region has become a place where monsters gather.

And in the southern region, there is a huge sinkhole, and many terrifying monsters live in that sinkhole.

If those terrifying monsters had been living in that sinkhole, they would have coexisted peacefully with the human race.

But there are always exceptions to everything, and it is said that every fifty years, a large number of demon beasts will rush out of the sinkhole and flee in all directions.

And the southern region is all high mountains, and those demon beasts can only rush to the flat ground, so there will be a large number of demon beasts rushing towards Zhennan County.

Those surging demon beasts are called beast tides.

This period is known as the Beast Tide.

"I heard from some monster friends that there are two powerful monsters fighting there, and they seem to be robbing some treasures, but what exactly are they robbing, my friends really don't know!"

Zhao Wuji frowned slightly, and said, "Then you mean to say that the fight between the two demon beasts attracted the beast tide?"

He had been pondering that the timing of the beast tide was wrong this time, and he had suspected that it was the barbarians or the Feather Demon Sect that were playing ghosts.

And now that he listened to the words of the Devouring Sparrow, he realized that there was another reason.

"And when are they going to get here?"

"I think they'll be here tomorrow morning!"

Zhao Wouji immediately reported the news to Zhao Tianming, and after Zhao Tianming heard it, he was a little suspicious in his heart, he felt that now was not the time for the outbreak of the beast tide.

But he felt that his son should not deceive him, so he ordered the military camp to be prepared for the attack of the beast tide.

Compared to the barbarians, the attack of the beast tide is not very scary.

Although the barbarians do not have a very high IQ, they still have some IQ.

But the demon beasts in the beast tide don't have much intelligence, and their purpose is not to destroy Zhennan County, they are just frightened, they are instinctively fleeing for their lives.

Zhao Tianming knew that the best way to deal with the attack of the beast tide was to try his best to lure them to other dense forests.

As soon as the day dawned, many people in Zhennan County were awakened by the deafening sound.

Their mood became very nervous, and they all thought that the barbarians were attacking.

Zhao Tianming soon received a report from his subordinates, saying that there was a beast tide outside.

After hearing the news, he hurriedly rushed to the barracks.

As soon as he went out, Zao Wou-Ki rushed towards him, saying that he would go together to deal with the beast tide.

"Okay, let's go see the beast tide this time!"

Zhao Tianming asked Zao Wou-Ki to go to the barracks with him.

When they arrived at the barracks, they saw that Wan Qingqing and the other members of the Royal Guard were ready for battle.

Seeing Zhao Tianming hurrying over, Wan Qingqing said to him: "General Zhao, my spies found that there were beast tides ten miles away from here, and those beast tides were numerous, and their strength was not weak!"

"I see, let's talk about what to do with those beasts right now!"

"Okay, then let's go in and discuss!"

In the barracks, Zhao Tianming summoned four adjutants to analyze with Wan Qingqing how to deal with this beast tide.

"Report to the princess, my approach is to lure away those demon beasts, not to clash head-on with those demon beasts, and not to make inaction-free sacrifices!"

"Yes, my thoughts are the same as yours, demon beasts are different from barbarians, their purpose is not to rush into Zhennan County, but how can we lure them away?"

Wan Qingqing asked.

"In the past, we used to catch a lot of poultry and put them on the path of the monsters. We can keep releasing the fowl in this place, and then the monsters will run in the direction of the fowl towards this dense forest. Once those demon beasts enter the dense forest, the beast tide will soon end! The demon beasts have a habit, they all like to stay in the dense forest, the successive lords of Zhennan County have built a large number of dense forests here in order to deal with the outbreak of the beast tide, as long as those demon beasts enter here, soon, those demon beasts will no longer be frightened!"

Zhao Tianming replied.

"In that case, then this matter will be left to General Zhao to do! I and the royal guards can provide General Zhao with everything we can, as long as General Zhao needs it, just ask!"

Wan Qingqing said.

"Report to the princess, there is no need for the time being, I have just ordered the army to go to the city to collect all kinds of poultry!"

Zhao Tianming replied.

"That's good, then I'll wait here for your good news!"

Wan Qing Qingdao.

She looked at Zao Wou-Ki and asked, "What about you?"

"Tell the princess, I will act with my father!"

"Oh, then be careful all the way!"

Wan Qingqing said with concern.

"Thank you princess for your concern!"

Zao Wou-Ki replied.

Wan Qingqing's eyes flickered, and she was worried that this time the beast tide was coming, it might be a conspiracy of the Feather Demon Sect.

She had asked the soldiers here before, and she learned from them that there would be a beast tide here in Zhennan County every fifty years, but this time the beast tide was coming, and it was not right in time.

Therefore, she feared that this was most likely a conspiracy of the Feather Demon Cult.

"You must be very careful, I am very worried that this is a conspiracy of the Feather Demon Sect!"

Wan Qingqing confessed.

"Tell the princess, we'll be very careful!"

Zhao Tianming replied.

He was also very worried that this was most likely a conspiracy of the Feather Demon Sect, and so far, he could only make as many arrangements as possible to prevent the Feather Demon Sect from sabotage.

Zao Wou-Ki and Zhao Tianming rode out of the barracks together, and what they had to do now was to check what was going on with the beast tide first.

At the same time, they also need to know how many demon beasts there are in that beast tide, and how many powerful demon beasts there are.

"Let's find out the speed of those demon beasts first, and then we can make the appropriate arrangement!"

Zhao Tianming said to Zao Wou-Ki.

"Okay!"

The two of them led a team of 1,000 people and rushed together in the direction of the beast tide.

A quarter of an hour later, they rode their horses for three miles, and they saw a dense crowd of demon beasts appear in front of them.

When they saw those demon beasts, they all breathed cold air.

They saw that those demon beasts were numerous and dense, and when they looked at them from afar, it was as if dark clouds were coming.

And they sensed that those monsters had become very crazy, and some trees along the way blocked them, and those monsters frantically knocked those trees to the ground.

"They seem to be crazy. ”

When Zao Wou-Ki saw the current appearance of those demon beasts, he felt that those demon beasts were very likely to go crazy.

Others, on the other hand, thought the same way as him.

After looking at it for a while, Zhao Tianming came to a conclusion.

"Everyone must be very careful, I think this time the beast tide is unusual, these monsters seem to be controlled!"

Zhao Tianming said.

"Yes, yes, the general is right, I also saw the beast tide attack twenty years ago, but the beast tide this time and this beast tide are not comparable at all! General, this time the beast tide is very crazy, and their strength is far stronger than the demon beasts I saw last time!"

An old lieutenant general said to Zhao Tianming.

This old vice general was personally invited by Zhao Tianming, because this old vice general had seen the beast tide attack twenty years ago.

Zhao Tianming invited the old deputy general to come in person, so that the old deputy general could see the difference between the current beast tide and the beast tide twenty years ago.

Zhao Tianming listened to the old lieutenant's words, and his brows furrowed.

He guessed in his heart that this time the beast tide was coming, and it should be related to the Feather Demon Sect.

After all, not long after the eldest princess lived in the military camp of Zhennan County, there was a beast tide that had only appeared here for more than fifty years, and there must be something behind it.

Therefore, the first thought that came to Zhao Tianming's mind was that this beast tide attack was related to the Feather Demon Sect.

However, he asked Zao Wou-Ki, but the other party told him that this time the beast tide was coming and related to the two powerful demon beasts inside fighting each other.

And this information was provided by the Devouring Sparrow.

Zhao Tianming's brows furrowed, he knew that the Sky Devouring Sparrow was a demon beast, it should have really asked other demon beasts and found out this information from other demon beasts.

He pondered for a moment, and then he knew what he had to do.

He knew that no matter whether the attack of the beast tide this time was caused by the Feather Demon Sect, or whether it was caused by the two powerful demon beasts among those demon beasts fighting each other, he would lead these demon beasts to the dense forest arranged by the city lord of Zhennan County before.

What he has to do is prepare with both hands.

For him, if this beast tide hits and it is really a demon beast infighting, it would be the best.

What he was more worried about was that if the attack of the beast tide this time was caused by the Feather Demon Sect, then the Feathering Demon Sect might have to make some other corresponding preparations.

Now that most of the soldiers in the entire barracks are used to deal with the attack of the beast tide this time, it will be difficult to protect the princess's safety at the same time.
