Chapter 572: When the Great Tribulation Comes, Fly Separately
The second sister is just a character in Zhu Bajie's mouth in Journey to the West, and she died before Zhu Bajie was enlightened by Guanyin. But a banshee who can make Zhu Bajie, the former marshal of Tianpeng, willingly plug the door upside down, is either extremely powerful or beautiful. In fact, the second sister of the egg does not have a tough background, if she only has beauty, with the identity of Zhu Bajie at this time, I am afraid that she will have been dominated by the noise a long time ago, how can she wait until after her death Zhu Bajie can possess the Yunzhan Cave?
Such strongmen, with Eligari to buy them properly, is already the limit, but it is impossible to expect them to help deal with the "mad dogs". Luo Han and the others stayed in the cave for an hour, and it was estimated that it was almost over, so they left directly. The second sister and Zhu Bajie said politely, and then the wild dragon smashed on the ground with a fist, shaking the mountain, which was an ending.
The interrogators who were monitoring saw the cloud stack cave swaying, and the shouting and killing sound in it was already getting lower and lower, and it was estimated that it was the end, and they hurriedly reported it to the organization. At this time, Luo Han and his party also walked out, but did not leave immediately, but stopped near the entrance of the cave, lying down, sitting, or receiving treatment, or recovering their strength, or recovering their energy, and they were not in a hurry to leave.
This made the "Mad Dog" a little hesitant, judging from the scene, a protracted battle broke out between Storm and Zhu Bajie, and the consumption should be extremely large, the armor of the five people was full of blood and mud, and the face after taking off the mask was also bleeding and sweating, which was the weakest time. But if they were allowed to rest enough, and with the strong recovery power of the trialists, it would not take long to reach the peak combat power again, then their desire to take advantage of the fire to rob would be in vain.
After struggling for more than ten minutes, several leaders discussed it repeatedly, and finally decided to take the initiative, but in order to prevent accidents, two people were left to stare at the exit to avoid other people from breaking into bad things.
Luo Han sat on the ground meditating, and suddenly there was a faint "hissing" sound in the team channel, which was the code agreed with Qi Tao, representing the prey to take the bait. Luo Han stood up and said to everyone, "Everyone is better, right?" This place should not be stayed for a long time, so we should find a hidden place to rest again, so as not to encounter troublesome monsters. ”
Everyone said yes, so the five of them slowly walked away from the Yunzhan Cave.
The lurking trialist hurriedly informed the organization of the news, and the boss of the "Mad Dog" did not take it seriously, telling him to follow him carefully and report the situation at any time. After all, Yunzhan Cave is the lair of two big demons, no one can say when other big demons will come over to exchange feelings or pick quarrels and provoke trouble, and besides, the wilderness is not a good place to rest, and it is reasonable to leave after recovering basic abilities.
Luo Han and the five people found a small valley to stop, and continued to rest The reason why they don't look for a cave is because this is the demon world, and most of the caves are occupied by monsters, not to mention their strength, many monsters do not have the habit of cleaning, and the environment in the cave is not suitable for human habitation at all, and it is not as comfortable as a hidden open place.
This valley is a bit narrow, with hills hundreds of meters high on both sides, and only three or four meters wide at the bottom of the middle.
Such an environment does not seem so dangerous, even if the "mad dog" comes here, he will not suspect that there will be ambushes on both sides, and it is also in line with the "injury" of the storm at the moment.
When the "mad dog" arrived here, Luo Han was closing his eyes and recuperating. Receiving Qi Tao's signal, Luo Han didn't react, but seemed to unconsciously tap a small stone on the ground with his knuckles.
Eight trialists appeared at the entrance to the valley, led by a young man dressed in a samurai uniform, representing his identity. This is not due to bullshit vanity, but rather because many scenes in the Japanese Proving Ground will feature samurai suits, and some of the characters in the plot will actually have samurai suits that can provide extraordinary bonuses.
"How did you end up here?" Luo Han looked at the eight people with some "horror" and asked.
The young man in the samurai suit sneered: "I can't think of it, you also have today, take advantage of your excessive consumption, and prepare to die." ”
Luo Han "forced his composure" and said, "Is it just a few of you?" Brag unblushingly. ”
"What about adding us?" At the other end of the valley, a tall and thin young man led seven trialists to appear, blocking Luo Han in the middle. At the same time, several people appeared on each of the ridges on both sides, blocking the breakthrough route of the Storm Five from four directions.
This group of "mad dogs" is indeed too careful, even if they have arrived here, they are still a little uneasy. Blocking from all sides can prevent the Storm Five from escaping, and secondly, it can also check whether there are ambushes everywhere, and if there is an ambush, they will retreat decisively.
Luo Han's face sank, and he said a little angrily: "Why are you holding me and not letting go?" He openly assassinated me before, and now he has chased me to the demon world to surround us, do you owe you? ”
The samurai dressed young man said, "Do you want to delay time again?" It's a pity that there is no blizzard this time, I see you blocking so many people from attacking. Sell? ”
A person behind him pressed his hand to the ground, and suddenly the ground under Luo Han's feet softened into a puddle of silt, if it weren't for the fact that everyone hurriedly urged the energy or jumped or flew away from the hand stretched out from the silt, they would have been directly pulled into this swamp that appeared out of thin air.
But the other trialist didn't stop, and the swamp expanded rapidly, as if chasing the five. At the same time, the trialists from all four directions also pressed together, vowing to put an end to the Storm Five.
Luo Han was suspended in the air, deftly avoiding one long-range attack after another, watching the trialists from four directions attacking, and suddenly smiled toothily: "I was still thinking about dividing the battlefield, but I didn't expect you to help me save such a trouble." Do it! ”
As the words fell, high stone walls rose at both ends of the valley at the same time, and at the same time, the slopes on both sides of the valley exploded, and five teams of trialists appeared from both sides to stop the trialists coming down from the ridges on both sides. At the same time, the valley is filled with smoke, and his old acquaintance Wu Shan has unleashed his ability to turn this valley into his territory, where all enemies will be disoriented, and at the same time, affected by the cold fog, their agility will be greatly reduced. And in this white mist, the two flames were particularly eye-catching, and it was the two fire controllers of Huoyun and Qiuyu who were releasing a range of attacks, directly enclosing a group of enemies that they needed to deal with in the flames. The others don't go into melee combat at all, and the mid- and long-range attacks that rain down towards the ring of fire are to avoid the damage caused by the opponent's deathly counterattack.
The slopes on both sides were crushed by several times the number of people, not to mention how easy it was to deal with. And although the trialists at both ends of the valley were not directly attacked, they could not find an exit and could not get out. This ability of Wushan is not only the effect of cold fog, but also has a spiritual effect, and it is definitely not something that can be withdrawn by returning the same way. At this time, there are only two paths in front of the "mad dog". The first is to rush to support his teammates with the signpost-like flames, and the second is to find a way to withdraw from the white mist area and escape while his companions are delaying the other party with their lives.
If the "mad dogs" are all gathered together, Luo Han and they still have some scruples, but the "mad dogs", which are already smaller, are divided into four teams, and Luo Han and their side have secretly arranged a large number of people on one side, and there are only a few restraining members on the other, almost forming a tenfold advantage, even if it is only a medium and long-range attack, it is enough to kill several times. At this time, the teams in the two valleys also made different choices, the young man in the samurai uniform led the team to rush towards the team that was pinned, hoping to save them and ensure that a certain number of people avoided being crushed, while the team led by the tall and thin man chose to flee, they squatted directly on the ground, relying on the ups and downs of the ground, and stayed away from the battlefield along the valley. I don't know whether to say that they are smart or stupid, although they save their lives, but with just a few of them, I am afraid that it is impossible to complete the task, and they can only stay in this scene for the rest of their lives until they die. If they gather together and fight desperately, their opponents, who are concerned about their own casualties, may not be able to wipe them out.
Luo Han stood at the bottom of the valley, silently looking at the firelight in the white mist and the light of various skills. He didn't participate, the storm had already reached the critical point, and he wouldn't touch it easily, at most, it would be an unexpected remedy. At this time, he suddenly felt a little emotional, he tried his best to go through trials again and again, but in the end, because of greed, he was killed by the enemy who was also a trialist, and everything came to naught, why bother? This is the testing ground of the gods, not the gladiatorial arena of beasts, how can people who can't even figure out the difference between them go to the end? Maybe that's why cannibalism is not encouraged in the Proving Grounds, but it's never explicitly forbidden, there are always people who need to be eliminated.
Luo Han is a thinker here, but the battle is slowly over. In fact, although the purpose of this alliance is to destroy the "mad dogs", it is not to pursue total annihilation, as long as they are reduced to more than half, and they dare to openly attack in the downtown without sufficient numerical advantage as before, the goal has already been achieved.
In the final analysis, these teams are not particularly interested in other people's equipment and the like, the real core of the trialists is still in terms of ability and attributes, although foreign objects can be relied on, they are not necessities, and it also involves a problem of applicability, such as the storm has also killed a lot of trialists along the way, but rarely got anything that has greatly improved them. Unless it's a supreme treasure like Wuji's glove, a sword that goes against the sky, and a sword that speaks of flowers, they really can't look down on it. But the problem is that the team with the things they can see is not so easy to mess with. To put it bluntly, the vision is high, the bad ones can't be looked down on, and the good ones can't be grabbed.
After a hard battle, the samurai costume youth exploded and fled with the three members in embarrassment, which made him regret coming to the meeting, if he had escaped like a tall and thin young man at that time, the loss would not have been so great. But at the same time, he also resented that group of people, thinking that if they didn't escape alone, his losses would not be so great, because he could see that the other party was obviously very concerned about his own losses and had not used all his strength.
The "Mad Dogs" completely disintegrated after this battle, and the two groups of people who escaped became mortal enemies, and it was impossible to cooperate anymore, and without enough people, they could no longer pose a threat to the other trialists.
solved a big trouble, everyone was in a good mood, and after distributing the spoils, they withdrew from the demon world, and found a restaurant to have a big dinner to celebrate, making up for the regret that the ice field cooperation ended hastily because Luo Han was seriously injured.
The days passed day by day in eating, sleeping, practicing and fighting monsters. In the eighth year of Yongxing in the White Lion Kingdom, that is, in the eighth year when the storm entered the testing ground, the White Lion Kingdom sent troops to conquer the three cities that were independent when the Kingdom of Shengke fell. Although these three cities have always bowed to the White Lion State, they have always been unwilling to give up their independence and accept the White Lion State's control of their power, and their nominal ruler is the city lord, but in fact the city lord is the king without a crown. This is due to the fact that these three cities were hereditary lords during the era of the Kingdom of Saint Ke, and their ruling families were the great heroes of the founding of the Kingdom of Saint Ke. The people were nominally the subjects of the kingdom of Shengke, but they always had a family on their heads, causing them to recognize only the lord of the city and not the king. But the problem is that the Shengke Kingdom can tolerate it because after they are meritorious heroes, the rights are rewarded by the founding monarch of the Shengke Kingdom, but for the White Lion Kingdom, they are a ball, and they just use them as an appetizer for the White Lion Kingdom to expand its territory.
The first thing that was delivered was an edict asking the three lords of the city to surrender their powers and accept orders from the monarch to go to the royal capital. Once they accept it, they will no longer be the lord of the city, but they can also keep them rich for a lifetime. But if you don't accept it, you will be followed by the murderous White Lion Army. When the soldiers are approaching the city, it will be the last chance for the city lord, and if he descends, he will live, and if he does not surrender, he will die.
The end result is one death and two falls. After the first city lord failed in his attempt to mobilize the young men in the city to defend against the army of the White Lion Kingdom, the army of the White Lion Kingdom that broke through the city slaughtered the three clans of the city lord and severely shocked the other two city lords. Although he was reluctant, he gave up resistance when the soldiers were approaching the city, and accepted the edict to go to the royal capital to spend the rest of his life as an idle official.
Although these three cities are independent, they have been ruled by the Shengke Kingdom for many years, and they are very similar to the White Lion Kingdom that inherited the Shengke Kingdom in all aspects, and they are very easy to integrate, and they simply accept the rule of the White Lion Kingdom, which can be regarded as a good start for the expansion of the White Lion Kingdom.
Immediately afterwards, the White Lion Kingdom tore off its mask, exposed its hideous fangs, and began to launch a war of conquest against the surrounding small countries, annexing seven cities in a row before stopping its further expansion. But just these seven cities have brought a lot of trouble to the White Lion Country, which makes people feel that it is not easy to expand.
Luo Han spends most of his time in the Eastern Capital, tinkering with some things that seem strange in this era after practicing, and occasionally entering the demon world at the request of his teammates to help fight some monster pills, and his life is leisurely and comfortable. He will not be in charge of such a matter as attacking small neighboring countries, and it is impossible for the generals under his control to personally participate in military operations of this magnitude, and he has his own generals at all levels below to lead the team. As for what to do after the conquest, that's a matter for the politicians.
But Luo Han didn't expect that he would be entangled in this matter.
