"General! The snow beasts are gathering! ”

Fort 5, command center.

The supreme commander of this place, the real power of the Dungeon Resistance Legion, and the eight-rank powerhouse Catrou are stationed here.

When the dawn broke and the morning sky brightened, the sentinels at the observatory immediately noticed the movement of the snow beast.

"Assemble? It seems that the king of snow beasts has finally sensed something...... Sure enough, this matter cannot be hidden, the fall of the Nine Pins, and at such a distance, it is impossible for the Beast King, who is also the Nine Pins, to be unaware. ”

General Katru smiled bitterly and shook his head, his golden hair dulled from sleepless nights, and his resolute and capable face was also full of sorrow.

He had expected this result.

It's been two years.

The Dungeon Humans and the Snow Beast Legion have been facing off against each other for two years!

In the past two years, the reason why the stability of the battle situation can still be guaranteed is not because of the combat courage of the human soldiers, but because the dungeon has nine products!

The Beastmaster is the ninth grade.

Human beings also have nine strong people in charge!

It is precisely because of this that the battle situation has always been stalemate, and the two top powerhouses have faced each other, and they have not made a move since the fight two years ago.

Neither the Beastmaster nor the Human Nine Rank dared to end easily, but everyone knew that it was precisely because of the mutual checks and balances between the two that they could barely maintain such a situation.

Or is it because the Beastmaster is too desperate to fight to the death, otherwise, where will he wait for two years? Two years ago, perhaps the dungeon would have been destroyed!

And today......

The fall of the nine products of mankind also means that the balance of confrontation has been broken.

The Beastmaster has no scruples, and next, as long as the Beastmaster makes a move and launches a general attack, Fortress 5 will usher in a tragic battle.

The entire battalion has been fluctuating, but the two-year buffer, although no new Jiupin was born, with the firepower of the entire fortress and the invention of new energy weapons, Catlu is confident that it can withstand a Jiupin!

Even...... If you're lucky, you may not be able to kill the Beastmaster with your weapons!

"Are you going to attack? Command! Implement Plan 1 now! All ready to meet the enemy! Catroux decisively ordered.

However, the next report from his subordinates left Catrou confused.

"General, they didn't attack, they ...... It seems that the defensive formation has been pulled up! ”

"Defense? Take me to see it! ”

Catroux was stunned, hurriedly ordered, and quickly walked to the nearest observatory, lying on the telescope, with the help of the lens, he could clearly see the scene on the snowfield.

Assemble your defenses.

Sure enough, it's a build-up defense, but why is that?

"General! I detected that the psionic energy level in the vicinity was rapidly rising, and I don't know why! ”

Suddenly, someone made an urgent report.

Unusually high psionic levels? Snow beasts assembled?

These two strange phenomena puzzled Catrou, but after a moment, it seemed as if something had suddenly occurred to him.

He shuddered, his eyes widened, stared at the communications soldier, and asked, "What is the concentration of spiritual energy?" How many? Show me the data! ”

The communications corps was frightened, and soon the Resistance inspection department delivered a copy of the test data to him.

And the moment he saw that form, Catrou's face suddenly turned pale!

This dignified eight-rank powerhouse, the leader of the entire dungeon legion, his body actually shook subconsciously, as if his heart had suffered a heavy blow!

Catrou shouted in his heart: Advance! Promotion!

As a high-level powerhouse, he naturally knew that this kind of data model meant that there were strong people nearby who were advancing!

And looking around, the only thing I can guess is the king of snow beasts!

That beast king, who is equivalent to the ninth rank of human beings, is actually going to be promoted again?

How is this possible? Such a coincidence?

No!

It was not a coincidence, Catru instantly realized that the Beastmaster might have been ready for a breakthrough promotion a long time ago, but he was worried that he would be interrupted by the human nine pins, so he delayed until now.

"How is that possible...... How could it be ......"

Catrou muttered, his eyes were distracted, this news is too shocking, what is above the nine grades? He didn't know, but he knew that once the Beastmaster was successfully promoted, at that time, the defense of Fort 5 would become a layer of window paper, and it would not be able to cause any obstacles to the Beastmaster!

And once Fortress 5 is lost, the passage to the dungeon is opened, and the Snow Beast Legion breaks in, at that time, it will be the destruction of countless human beings in the entire dungeon!

"No, maybe it's the data that's wrong, the data that's wrong! Come! Immediately contact the dungeon headquarters and ask them to immediately notify the rest of the fortress to jointly verify the calculation! I want the most accurate data! Other than that...... Inform them that the King of Snow Beasts may be about to advance! ”

Catroux shouted, paused, and suddenly shouted again, "Pete Durand!" You immediately take someone out to investigate the situation and report it to me! ”

"Yes!"

A red-nosed young man in the crowd walked out, wearing an officer's uniform, his face was heavy and calm, and he had long since lost the youth of two years.

After ordering two people, he immediately walked out of the fortress filled with grief and tension and descended the mountain.

……

It was cold and cold outside the fortress.

Pete didn't seem to be afraid, in two years, he was promoted to the third grade of cultivation like a rocket, perhaps to avenge the death of his colleagues, in the battle with the snow beast, he was extremely brave, and became the commander of the reconnaissance force.

Two years of fighting is enough to make people completely transformed.

Bending over, taking advantage of the terrain, hiding his body, approaching the snow beast army in the distance.

Dressed in a white combat uniform, he looked up at the snowfall, and his heart was heavy.

"Chief, what the general just shouted...... Is it true? A brown-haired young man following him couldn't help but ask.

Pete looked at him and pulled out a reassuring smile: "What do you mean?" ”

"Will the Beastmaster really make the cut again? Wouldn't that be stronger? Our Jiupin has fallen, let's ...... Can it still be stopped? The other soldier was also worried.

Sorrow pervades the fortress, as does trepidation.

"Why not?" Pete was a little more serious, he said very seriously, "Jiupin is not terrible, it will also be injured, and it will hurt in the face of artillery fire, not to mention that in the past two years, our fortress has been so strong, and the snow beast has not rushed in for a long, long time, what are you worried about?" Worried about it getting stronger? Hey, that's still a no-brainer, who knows why psionic energy fluctuates? Maybe it's the beastmaster who gives birth to a child, don't be so pessimistic! ”

The soldier couldn't help but say, "The beastmaster is a prince...... How can you give birth to ......?"

Pete glared at him, "How do you know it's male?" Have you touched it? ”

"Haha." Someone laughed.

The soldier blushed and said stiffly, "But you haven't touched the head, so how can you be sure that it is the mother." ”

Pete laughs, "Because my grandfather Durand was a good veterinarian!" It's a family heirloom, you know? ”

Everyone smiled when they heard this.

At his words, the atmosphere suddenly lightened a lot, and the tension in the hearts of the soldiers also dissipated.

Pete saw that it had an effect, and continued to comfort: "Besides, even if it really advances, what are you afraid of?" Our fortress can certainly hold it back, and even if things get to the worst, they don't necessarily turn around, like ...... Two years ago, the day the snow beast just arrived......"

As he spoke, Pete suddenly fell into a memory.

A mysterious Oriental face in a black trench coat conjured up in his mind.

Although two years have passed, the figure is still firmly embedded in Pete's mind, and he has never forgotten that at the beginning, he had fallen into despair, and it was that figure that came out of nowhere, saved him, and reminded the dungeon in time, otherwise, the city would have fallen long ago.

Unfortunately, he had never seen that figure since that day.

"Perhaps...... He's already gone. ”

"If he's in ...... No, no matter how strong he is, he should only be a middle-level, at most a high-level cultivator, I'm afraid he is not even as good as General Catrou, even if he is here, what can he do? Could it be that he is still capable of fighting the beast king? ”

Pete looked at the vast land, staring at the growing wind and snow, thinking in his heart, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

……

Paris of the past, ruins today.

At the top of the tallest building, Cheng Lin looked back and forth the mission information in his mind several times to confirm that he was not mistaken.

So he looked weird.

"Are you crazy? You want me to kill the Beastmaster? That beastmaster is now a ninth rank and is about to advance to the Earth Emperor Realm, what about me? Even the three products are still a little bit close, and counting the five-core puppets, it is useless, and the two of us together can't even break through into the snow beast's defensive circle. ”

"Yes, I know that I can be infinitely reborn in the deduction, and it doesn't hurt...... But that doesn't mean I can grind it to death, do you remember the awakened tiger you met in the primeval forest? I slashed it with a knife and died so many times that it only scared it away. ”

"It's going to run, even if the Beastmaster doesn't move, let me cut slowly, assuming I can break through its defenses, how long will it take? By the time I cut its capillaries, they would have already made the cut. ”

Cheng Lin said slowly into the air.

After speaking, he spread his hands: "So, obviously, this is an impossible task, just like the last time you asked me to solve the puzzle, okay, now please tell me where the 'key' is, I don't want to waste time." ”

Wait until he finally finishes.

The program was silent for a while, and seemed to wonder why Cheng Lin didn't try to chop and chop, but in view of the fact that this was indeed an unsolvable task, it twisted it, and finally injected a piece of information into Cheng Lin's mind.

After a while, Cheng Lin finished reading.

He raised his eyebrows, his eyes were a little weird, and ...... Eager to try, "Can it be like this?" That...... All right. ”

He laughed, then put his hands on the edge of the building, and his whole body fell.

Like a pitch-black fallen leaf, it falls from the top of a building hundreds of meters high.

"Poof."

Smashed into a ball of bloody mud.

……

……

Fort 5.

The tension was pervasive, and everyone was busy, but they didn't seem to know what they were supposed to be busy with, so they could only wipe the battle equipment over and over again, as if the brighter they were, the greater the chance of victory.

Commander Catroux paced back in the camp, restless.

He regretted it a little, and when he was emotional before, he told the guess in his heart, which caused the people in the camp to be even more unstable now, but if this guess is false, it will be nothing, if it is true, then ...... Nothing more.

Catrou thought sadly, and couldn't help but look at the correspondent: "Hasn't the dungeon been replied yet?" ”

Without a reply, he can't be sure whether his guess is true or not, which involves the whole strategy.

After a moment, the pretty correspondent was pleasantly surprised: "Here it is!" Checkmate! A reply from the Dungeon Command Center...... They ask for a video conversation with you! ”

Video conversation?

"Connected!"

Catrou commanded.

"Yes!"

The correspondent operated, and suddenly, there was a bright light and jitter on a hanging screen in the room, due to the signal, the wireless transmission between the surface and the underground was very bad, and the video was wired, and every second consumed a lot of energy.

The "snowflakes" hissed on the screen for a few seconds, and finally, a fluctuating image appeared.

Katru didn't care about it, but when he saw the picture in the image, he immediately straightened his waist, gave a military salute, and said, "City Lord! How did you get here? ”

Yes, on the other side of the screen, it is the supreme de facto ruler of the dungeon.

It's not just him, behind him, there are even more than a dozen councillors!

This means that the city lord and the big names of the council have all come to the underground headquarters!

This sends a very bad signal.

Catrou's heart sank.

screen.

The gray-eyed city lord was looking at Katru, the commander-in-chief of the ground, with an unprecedented solemn expression, across thousands of meters of network cables.

After a few moments, Jojo opened his mouth, and then, the voice came out of the microphone, a little distorted, but deep enough:

"General Catrou! The General Headquarters has just ordered all the ground fortresses to jointly calculate the psionic problem, and after several analyses, it has been determined that the Beastmaster is about to be promoted! ”

Hearing this, Catrou's body shook again, and sure enough, ...... Is it true......

The voice of the city lord continued:

"Command informed the council and me of the matter, and we knew what that meant.

Relying on the current fortress's defense facilities, it can only compete with the Nine Rank Beast King at most, and if it is operated properly, there may not be no hope of killing it.

But!

If the Beastmaster succeeds in making the cut! Then, according to the analysis, the fortress will have no resistance in the face of it!

And once the fortress is captured, the dungeon will be in a deadly crisis!

You know what that means!

After discussion by all the members of the council, we now announce the final decision, please organize the evacuation of all the soldiers immediately and return to the dungeon! After that, we will implement the 'capping plan'! ”

Capping plans?

The moment he heard this word, Catrou's demeanor changed drastically, and he no longer cared about etiquette, but just said loudly: "Capped? Is it really coming to this? ”

"This is the last resort! And the only way to live! ”

The city lord said in a deep voice.

"But...... But ......"

Catrou faces grief.

He naturally knows what the "capping plan" means.

That's a crazy plan developed by the dungeon, once the ground is completely lost, and the snow beast crisis dungeon is comforted, it will detonate all the fortresses on the ground at the same time!

Yes, detonate!

In the meantime, all the fortresses will collapse, the bottom layer will collapse, and the passage will be completely blocked!

However, this also means that the "vents" are blocked!

For two years, for this plan, a long, long tunnel was dug in the dungeon, leading to a long distance of land, enough to avoid the snow beasts.

However, there is only one such "ventilation tunnel", which can provide very limited oxygen.

And the life of the dungeon, in addition to breathing, also needs to be burned for heating, and combustion requires oxygen!

This also means that oxygen will not be able to meet the needs of people and flames.

So, the end result is that the entire dungeon can barely survive with only a small area that has mastered the passage - by creating an air isolation zone.

The rest of the city will be abandoned, suffocated or starved to death due to lack of energy!

In other words, once the "capping plan" is implemented, at least three-quarters of the entire dungeon's population will die!

"Nope! We have another way! Catroux suddenly shouted, "As long as we can interrupt its promotion and let it fail to be promoted!" ”

The city lord on the other side of the screen shook his head silently.

A well-dressed councillor behind him spoke: "General Catrou, this is not feasible, now that the Snow Beast Legion has completely formed a defensive posture, we can't break through the defensive circle to interrupt it, besides......

Does interrupting really work? Who knows? Maybe it's useless at all, it kills the soldiers, and then moves on to the promotion, so what to do? ”

Catrou said angrily: "How do you know if you can't do it without giving it a try?" ”

He was furious.

He understood what this group of councillors was thinking about, as big people, they were not worried about suffocation, even if the others died, they would not die, at most the quality of life would decline, but it was much better than the mouth of the snow beast that died.

The vast majority of the cap plan killed were civilians, and this group of "nobles" would not be harmed at all.

In fact, as an eight-rank powerhouse and the commander of the Resistance Army, Catroux is also a "big man", but his father is a civilian, and he happened to awaken, so he became a big man, if he hadn't awakened at the beginning, then he is also one of the civilians who have been abandoned today!

Therefore, he was extremely angry in his heart.

However, reason told him that this was the only way to live, and that compared to everyone being eaten by the snow beasts, it was obvious that it was rational to give up the majority and survive the few.

"General Catrou...... This is the last way, for the continuation of civilization, we can only do this, we can't break through the defense circle of the snow beast, no one can, the snow field is their home field, we have no hope, even if you are a strong man of the eighth grade, to break through, there is only a dead end! Don't make fearless sacrifices anymore, and carry out the order as soon as possible. The city lord said.

Catroux was silent.

Yes, they have no hope, only cultivators can walk through the snowfield, and even if all the cultivators are gathered, it is impossible for him to break through the defensive circle in person.

Is Bapinqiang strong?

It's very strong, but there are also several fierce beasts equivalent to the eighth rank among the snow beasts!

The snowfields are their home turf, and humans ...... There is no hope.

Katrou's fists clenched and loosened, and in the end, he could only turn into a desolate sigh.

"Command ......"

He said in a dejected voice. "Order, everyone, assemble, retreat to the dungeon."

Compared to those civilians...... The Resistance is more valuable and should not be abandoned, but survived.

Catroux laughed silently, he couldn't save humanity, at least ...... Save your own men.

However, at this moment, on the observation platform not far away, a soldier suddenly exclaimed: "General! Come and see! Someone! Someone is approaching the Snow Beast Legion! ”

"What?! Who is it? Could it be Pete them? Ordered them to retreat immediately, it was too dangerous there! ”

"Nope! Not Pete! But...... One...... A stranger! His clothes...... Definitely not our people! The soldier shouted.

Not one of ours?

So who is that?

Katru was stunned, rushed over, raised the telescope, and the next moment, he saw that a thin man wearing a black trench coat and a top hat appeared in the lens...... Oriental?

How could there be an Oriental walking in the snow?

Wearing so little, walking in a blizzard, approaching the snow beast......

What is he going to do?

The next moment, Katru clearly saw that a weapon suddenly appeared in the right hand of the oriental, and it looked like a sword!

He carried his sword and walked calmly and leisurely through the snowfield.

At this moment, Catroux suddenly woke up.

"He, he's going to fight into the Snow Beast Defense Circle? This...... How can it be? I can't do it, he's definitely a madman who doesn't know where he came from! ”

Although I thought so in my heart.

But for some reason, Catroux still held the telescope firmly, and his eyes followed the figure as if it were ...... I look forward to what in general.

……

"Boss? Chief? What are you looking at? ”

In the middle of the snowfield, in a pit, the scouts lay there.

A soldier suddenly found that his captain was stunned on the edge of the pit, and the captain just said that he wanted to look up to see the situation, but as a result, he stopped moving.

"Boss? What did you see? ”

Several soldiers were very curious, but they did not dare to get up and look because of the order.

At this moment, Pete, who was lying on the edge of the snow pit, was just stunned, looking in disbelief at the familiar and unfamiliar shadow that was walking in the wind and snow not far away.

He was shocked inexplicably in his heart, and couldn't help but wipe his eyes, it was not an illusion, it was real!

But...... How can it be?

"Is that him? It's him...... It's him! ”

Pete roared in his heart: "He...... It's back again!! ”
