Chapter 50: The Beginning and End of the Calamity
Time goes back to a day ago, when Chen Tao was still in retreat, and he had been in retreat for more than a month. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"The retreat hasn't ended yet, is it?" Long Er was outside the quiet room and couldn't help but ask worriedly.
"What are you worried about, boy? For Qi practitioners, ten or eight years of retreat is normal, time flies by in a flash, it may be a month for us, but for him it may just be an opening and closing of an eye. "Elder Xu, as a person who has come over, has a long foundation for the way of nature.
It was a process of real easy tendon and marrow cutting, which was not only the process of true gasification and liquid, but also the process of physical transformation. The time is short, and I am afraid that the physical transformation will not be complete, and I am afraid that it will also have an impact on the subsequent cultivation.
It's just that she is a little worried about Chen Tao building the foundation so quickly, the foundation of the demon cultivation is not stable, but he is still building the foundation at this time, if it is successful, if it fails, the damage to the body is not ordinary, and it will not be able to recover in a few months.
Usually, it's just that, but now monsters are constantly appearing, and now hundreds or even thousands of monsters have begun to wander outside the stronghold. The soldiers of the four major defense regions are no longer able to go out hunting in a leisurely manner as before. Every day, in order to empty the monsters around the stronghold, he is also busy and exhausted.
The 30,000 spars have all been exchanged, and they owe others 50,000 spars for food. Fortunately, Chen Tao's credibility was still there, and he knew that he was in retreat, so he didn't rush it. Anyway, Xin Ping has already recorded the account, and it is okay to wait for Chen Tao to leave the customs before paying.
"General, the number of monsters outside is strange!" At this time, a lookout suddenly came to report.
Through the telescope, they could see everything five miles away, and the surrounding woods were almost cut down, which made their field of vision even wider.
"How? From the real report! Zhang He immediately asked.
"Monsters have gathered from all directions, at least tens of thousands, and it seems that there will be more monsters gathering in this direction, including a large number of purple zombies and white zombies!" The lookout replied.
"Damn, these monsters really did something to the little stronghold!" Simbi immediately reacted and shouted.
Recently, there have been more and more monsters, and even their large stronghold is beginning to be difficult to deal with, how can those small strongholds be able to resist. It was nothing more than a line of defense that was broken, and then the entire stronghold was slaughtered.
Those principals had not been warned by Chen Tao earlier, but because of their selfish desires and distrust of Chen Tao, they refused the invitation to come and take refuge, and finally paid for it.
It's just that the people under their rule are innocent......
Even so, no one will pity those people, one is too busy to take care of themselves, and the other is that those people choose to trust their principals, so naturally they have to pay for their trust. There is a cause and effect in the world, and if you plant this cause and reap this effect, since you have made a choice, then don't expect others to have mercy on them.
Besides, the stupidity of those guys has doubled the pressure on their side, not to mention pity them at this stage, if you don't complain about them, you can already count it as mercy.
"The four major defense zones immediately entered a state of readiness, immediately issued weapons to the people in the rear, and when necessary, they also joined the defense. This battle is about the life and death of the stronghold, so you have to be careful! Simbi immediately shouted.
He is the military advisor selected by Chen Tao, and he has the absolute initiative in the military, especially in this kind of war period, he has more right to speak than the Xin Ping of the county Cheng.
Zhang He was also convinced of Xin Bi, and immediately threw himself into defense. Just before they arrived, the first group of monsters had already begun to attack the stronghold.
At first, it was naturally very easy to kill all the monsters, but as the monsters converged from all directions, the difficulty began to increase. Some of them were overexcited at the beginning, resulting in excessive physical exertion, and naturally became the unlucky ones who suffered at the beginning.
Fortunately, Zhang He and the others quickly discovered this problem and made up for the lack of physical strength by replacing the soldiers. Fortunately, the wooden fence is still strong, and relying on its blocking, the number of soldiers required for defense has been greatly reduced, so that the soldiers can defend in batches.
Those monsters that died in battle will be dragged away by the monsters in the rear, but they will not be buried, but eaten directly. For those monsters, the dead monsters are also food, even if they are of the same kind.
This is how they lived in the Nine Nether Abyss, and when they came to this world, they would not forget this way of living. Even if it's a sticky and disgusting thing like an unjust ghost, they can eat it.
In fact, it's not really to fill the stomach, what they eat will be quickly compressed into food essence, and then turned into energy and converted into the body, especially hungry ghosts, everything they eat will be turned into energy and absorbed, and through continuous devouring, to complete the cultivation of the hungry ghost Dao, this is their unique cultivation mode.
The devouring of the same kind by these monsters is also convenient for the defenders, otherwise there will be piles and piles, and the wooden fence will not be able to hold on. However, as those monsters devour their kind, there is a faint tendency to improve, if a thousand miscellaneous soldiers are killed, but more than a dozen elite soldiers are produced, and even an officer-level monster appears, it is really worth the loss.
The time lasted for a day, everyone began to get tired, and the casualties in the stronghold reached more than a thousand. Fortunately, there were monks or large-scale monster clearance, which made the soldiers persevere. Occasionally, the people will even be allowed to go up, and it doesn't matter how many they can kill, the key is to let the soldiers rest. Rao is like this, and everyone is also exhausted.
Those monsters devoured their kind in large numbers, and some high-level monsters actually began to be born.
Especially with a Hungry Ghost that is three times the size of a normal Hungry Ghost; The bodily fluids become more viscous and the body becomes larger; There is also a body that changes from grayish white to grayish-cyan, reminding that it is a yaksha twice the size of a regular yaksha.
The three of them began to become the commanders of this demon lord, and those low-level monsters obeyed their orders, and constantly sent the same kind of hedron to them, so that they could be subdued and promoted.
Around them, there were even some slightly larger elite monsters, which seemed to be able to initially control those low-level monsters and became loyal minions of those high-level monsters.
"Can you still support it?" Zhang He looked at Xin Bi beside him.
"Give me a quarter of an hour, and I'll get back to my heart as soon as I can!" Xin Bi gritted his teeth, took out the last Qi Condensing Pill and took it. He didn't know what to do when he consumed the true qi in his body again.
The situation was getting worse and worse, and many people even had desperate thoughts.
"Demon Ann Dare!" But I didn't want to be at this time, a loud shout made everyone feel excited, and they suddenly cheered up.
