Zhang Tie and the other two knights of the Jin Yun Kingdom had been stationed in the southern part of the Karley Mountains for more than a month.

At this time, as a knight of the Weiyi Subcontinent, even if he can't directly go into battle to directly smash the Yellow Dragon and share life and death with the Demon Legion and the Demon Shuai, there are still many things that can be done. For a period of time, blocking some of the knights of the Demon Clan and the Three-Eyed Society from crossing the Karré Mountains and directly threatening the countries south of the Karré Mountains, this can still be done.

The demon marshal who had suffered two great losses of the Terrans under the city of Nyon and outside the city of Ampton, this time, adopted a steady advance strategy of steady progress with the demon puppet as the striker, and under such a promotion strategy, the activities of the demon clan and the knights of the Three-Eyed Society were relatively stable, and there were very few ventures, and as a result, the knights on both sides maintained a confrontation situation of equal strength for more than a month.

The demon marshal felt that he was sure of victory, and at this time he was unwilling to risk the precious knight resources and the warriors of the demon legion, so as not to fall into the traps and pockets arranged for him by the human race again.

For the Demon Marshal, the army of 200 million demonized puppets was enough to bulldoze a qiē, so the elite power in his hands to follow the demonized puppet army and steadily advance was the least costly way to take the Blackson Terran corridor.

And for these knights in the southern country, at this time, there are even fewer people who want to fight with the demon knights here.

If it weren't for the honor and duty of knights, perhaps, the vast majority of knights would have left this subcontinent by this time.

On September 4th, the vanguard of the demonized puppets officially stepped out of the Karré Mountains. The situation in the southern countries of the Blackson Terran Corridor took a turn for the worse in an instant......

That is, on the same day, Zhang Tie, who was stationed on the south side of the Karley Mountains, and many other Terran knights, began to evacuate......

After retreating for hundreds of kilometers. Zhang Tie and the two elders of the Lan family, Elder Yuchen and Ge Qing of the Ou family, got on the Furywind-class airship that returned to Jinyun Kingdom.

In the same way that the knights of the Zhang family of Huaiyuantang use the word "Mu" as a unique knight name, the word in the middle of the knight name of the Banxintang Lan family is the word "jade", and the word in the middle of the knight name of the Ou family of Chuixuetang is the word "Ge", and the knight names of these two families are also unique in the world.

Although Zhang Tie can always fly back to Jinyun Kingdom from here, this kind of shocking thing and exposing his strength. Zhang Tie was not stupid enough to do it.

The airship that was going to pick up the three of them stayed at Silverpine City, the capital of the Duchy of Riska in the southern part of the Carré Mountains, which is a small and small country, when Zhang Tie and the others left Silverpine City in the airship. The entire Silver Pine City, except for the 40,000 city guards who remained to guard the city at the end, the city has long been empty.

When the airship lifts off. The defenders of 60,000 Silver Pine City straightened their backs one by one. Look up and salute, then watch with a look as the airship carrying the Terran knights leaves.

Zhang Tie stood on the deck of the airship, looking at the defenders of Silver Pine City on the ground, with extremely complicated feelings.

These defenders in Silver Pine City were sacrificed, and they stayed to fight the demons in exchange for the opportunity for their families to leave the Weiyi Subcontinent.

Each person who stays can give their five family members the opportunity to leave the Weiyi subcontinent first. The city had twenty days' worth of food for the defenders, as long as they could hold the city for seven days under siege by the demonic puppets. Then, they can leave and run for their lives.

Seven days gave these many people an ethereal hope of survival, and in fact, Zhang Tie, who had experienced the battle of the Cernes War Zone, knew that under the siege of the demonized puppet army and many demon masters, even if these people could use the city defense equipment of Silver Pine City to resist, the possibility that they could hold out in the siege for three days was very small, let alone seven days. Therefore, these people are basically very difficult to survive. And what they can delay is not all the demonized puppet troops, but only a small part of the demonized puppet troops, and more demonized puppet troops will ignore the city's existence and continue to advance south.

Except for Silver Pine City, all the cities in the southern countries of the Karley Mountains are the same at this moment, and this iron-blooded policy of dealing with the attack of the demons has been implemented since the first holy war.

Is this policy fair? Zhang Tie didn't know, because these Terran warriors who stayed behind and burned the jade of the demon clan were almost all ordinary people with average family conditions, and none of those rich and powerful people would stay and die. Can you say it's unfair, Zhang Tie also doesn't know, because in this situation where everyone can't be left to die and sacrificed, and there are no resources to ensure that everyone leaves safely, between staying and leaving, as a decision-maker, you always have to make a trade-off, this kind of trade-off, following the most primitive law of exchange, cold, and realistic - there is sacrifice, there will be a new life. All of them are the simplest numbers games - if a person can destroy at least 5 or more enemies with the advantage of the city's defense weapons and walls, then the value of the warrior who stays behind to defend the city can leave his five relatives away.

Those ordinary people who are unwilling to stay and defend the city, or those whose family members have no one who wants to stay and defend the city, if they want to leave the Weiyi subcontinent, the chances will become slim, they will either die under the iron hooves of the demons, or they will have to flee to those areas that are far away from the city, deserted, and have not even been explored on the map to survive by luck.

Words like the so-called pricelessness of life, the dignity of life, at such times, are almost ridiculously naïve.

Jihad tells everyone that life has a price, not only is it valuable, but it is also not expensive, and the poorer the person, the cheaper the price.

As a knight who grew up from the grassroots, at this time, facing the fate of these countless grassroots roots that are about to be harvested, Zhang Tie's mood is difficult to calm down for a long time.

"Let's go, this is everyone's own choice, even as knights, there are many things, we can't do anything, one person's strength is too small in the holy war, if you want to control the fate of more people, as long as you have more strength!" Elder Yuchen, who was standing beside Zhang Tie, said softly to Zhang Tie, this elder of the Lan family seemed to be able to understand a little bit of Zhang Tie's somewhat complicated feelings.

Zhang Tie clenched his fists tightly. Then he took a deep breath and walked into the airship's cabin with Elder Lan.

Only the stronger the strength, the more people can control the fate of the more people - Zhang Tie remembered this sentence fiercely.

Return to the airship's cabin. Zhang Tie didn't say anything more, but directly began to enter the elemental realm to cultivate.

……

Three days later, the Fury Wind-class airship carrying three knights of the Jinyun Kingdom landed in a city it passed through to replenish its supplies on the way, and in the middle of the night, he felt the sudden agitation outside the airship, and Zhang Tie woke up from the elemental realm. Pushed open the hatch and walked out.

Around the same time, the two elders of the Lan family, Elder Yuchen and Ge Qing of the Ou family, also finished their own cultivation. Walking out of their cabin, the three of them glanced at each other.

"Let's go to the deck and see how it's going!" Elder Ge Qing said.

When the three of them reached the deck, they saw that the night sky of the city had been dyed red by the flames that had risen to the sky. The whole city was in chaos. A breath of riot and murder scorched and fermented in the night, piercing into the nerve centers of the city like fangs in the mouth of a poisonous snake, and began to inject toxins, making every qiē become furious.

The captain of the airship quickly came to the deck with a stern face.

"Report, there is a riot in Xinwu City, and the mob outside the airship base is increasing!"

"How long will it take for the airship to be refilled?" Zhang Tie asked.

"An hour and a half!"

"Let the crew be on guard and complete the supply as much as possible. Then take off right away! Zhang Tie ordered.

"Yes!" The captain saluted, then quickly left the deck of the airship. Supervise the airship to complete the resupply quickly.

"The human heart is sometimes more terrible than the demons!" Elder Ou Geqing looked at the hideous fire in the distance, shook his head and said.

"Every holy war will kill a lot of people, and in the last holy war, it was not the people who died in the hands of the demons and the Three Eyes, but in the hands of the human race itself, accounting for one-fifth of the deaths in the entire holy war, greedy wolves, fear, desire, resentment, these are all poisons that corrode people's hearts and make people even more terrifying than the demons!" Elder Lan Yuchen said with wisdom, "In the face of the Demon Race, if the Human Race does not have a strong cohesion, then before the Demon Race attacks, most of the people will kill each other and die!" ”

"So, I have to go back to Taixia!" Ou Geqing said categorically, "This generation is a vertical son, and it is not enough to conspire. ”

Elder Yuchen nodded.

Zhang Tie silently looked at the firelight outside the airship base, squinting his eyes......

……

An hour later, before the airship could complete its supply, the perimeter of the airship base had been breached by the mob, and the surrounding walls were torn down, tens of thousands of torches were lit, and mobs with various weapons poured in.

A squad of fighters at the airship base, led by a commander, stood in front of the mob.

The sight of these heavily armed soldiers made the steps of the mob pause.

"This is a military restricted area, it is strictly forbidden to break into the ......," a bespectacled officer said loudly to the mobs, then turned his head to his men, "These people are all citizens of Xinwu City, not demons, and they are not allowed to do anything without my orders!" ”

The soldiers in armor with spears looked at each other one by one.

The mob slowed down and slowly approached the soldiers.

"There's an airship here, and we have the ......power to leave," one of the leading mobs shouted, encouraging the other mobs to rush towards the fighters.

"You can leave, but the airship here is not yours, and you have no right ......to use it," the bespectacled young officer scolded, "please stop and don't go any closer!" ”

"We just want a chance to live, we are citizens of Xinwu City, and we have the right to leave ......" The leading mob ripped off the buttons of his clothes, exposed his chest, patted his chest and continued to approach, "It's all the blood of the human race flowing here, you haven't let the demon shed a drop of blood, do you want us to bleed?" Come and kill, come and kill, we are all citizens of Xinwu City, you come to kill us......"

"I repeat, please stop, this is a military restricted area......" The bespectacled young officer shouted sweaty, trying to get more people to hear him, watching the mob get closer and closer, and the fighters behind him became more and more uneasy.

When the two sides approached to a distance of almost a few meters. The bespectacled young officer was still spreading his arms and shouting loudly......

"The demons haven't hit here yet, please don't get excited. Listen to me, you also have a chance to leave, and Xinwu City can't be messed ...... at this time."

The mob in the lead of the mob had a strange light in his eyes, and the whole person suddenly burst out, and there was already an extra dagger in his hand, and the mob directly stabbed the bespectacled officer in the heart with the dagger in his hand, and the officer stared at the man who was still patting his chest just now. The mob with an impassioned face, but at this moment he sent the dagger into his heart, gulps of blood poured out of his mouth.

What the young officer wanted to say. But it is no longer possible to say.

With a hideous expression on the mob's face, the leader pulled out his dagger and stabbed it directly into the neck of the officer who had ordered not to allow the fighters to attack them. He fell to the ground with the officer.

A stream of blood shot out of the officer's neck. sprayed the mob in the face, and seeing that someone had already moved, the mob behind rushed up, instantly drowning those fighters in the airship base.

At such a close distance, it would be a disaster for the spear-wielding warriors to lose the initiative and be approached by a mob many times their own number.

……

After dozens of frantic stabs in the body and neck of the bespectacled officer, the leader's whole face. They were all stained red with blood spurting from the young officer's neck.

The mob got up and smashed the young officer's glasses to the ground. wiped the blood from his face, then pulled out the sword on the young officer's waist, and shouted, "Rob, all these airships, everyone can leave here if they grab them, let the airship crew survive, drive the airship for us, and kill the others."

The leading mob raised their arms, and countless people rushed towards the airships.

……

Zhang Tie stood on the high deck of the airship, coldly watching the scene in the distance, watching the bespectacled young officer fall down with a blank face, dying at the hands of the people he wanted to protect.

The lines on Zhang Tie's face slowly hardened......

……

The huge figure of the Hurricane-class airship is very conspicuous in the airship base, compared to the other small and medium-sized airships scattered in the take-off boat base, Zhang Tie's airship is simply standing out from the crowd.

Seeing Zhang Tie's Fury-class airship, the eyes of the leaders of those mobs lit up, they glanced at each other, and quickly ran towards this side.

The entourage on the airship had formed a cordon around the perimeter of the airship.

This airship is the war airship of the Hurricane Legion, the air car of the commander of the legion, and among the accompanying crews, almost everyone is a battle-hardened master and warrior, and there are a large number of soldiers above level ten.

"We are the citizens of Xinwu City, and now that the city has been taken over by a citizens' council composed of us, we are going to requisition your airship!" The leading mob looked at the beautiful Fury-class airship with greedy eyes, slowed his pace, and said loudly as he walked.

"Stop!" A black-faced officer guarding the airship said coldly.

"As I said, this place has been taken over by our citizens' committee......" The leading mob said loudly as he walked, with an eerie glint in his eyes.

"Ready!" The black-faced officer of the Hurricane Legion did not say a word, but raised a hand and ordered the fighters guarding the airship to prepare for battle.

With a bang, all the soldiers who were on guard of the airship stepped forward, and the bright weapons were aimed at the approaching mob at the same time.

The mob stopped.

"Why, do you still dare to do it, do you dare to massacre the citizens here in this city......" The leading mob did not stop, but repeated the same trick as he went, he ripped off his clothes, revealing his chest, "Come here, come, come......"

The mob was clamoring.

At this time, the eyes of the Lan family elder and the Ou family elder were all on Zhang Tie's face......

Zhang Tie's face was expressionless, he just raised his hand, and a battle aura flew out from his fingers, directly blowing up the body of this leading mob into a pile of minced meat from a distance of dozens of meters.

Zhang Tie opened his mouth coldly and issued an order, "Affect the supply of the airship, and those who are within fifty meters of the airship's warning range will be killed!" ”

As soon as Zhang Tie's voice fell, the soldiers of the Hurricane Legion who were guarding the airship pounced out one by one like fierce tigers, like tigers entering a flock of sheep, and in the blink of an eye, the heads of the mobs who took the lead and walked in the front flew up one by one.

In less than two minutes, within 50 meters around the airship, it was completely cleaned out, the bodies of the mob lay on the ground, and the rest of the mobs, one by one, cried and shouted for their mothers, ran out and ran into the distance, and saw that the guards of the airship did not seem to chase after them, so they looked at the companions who turned into corpses within 50 meters around the airship, and no one dared to approach the airship......

After another half an hour, the airship finished replenishing, and all the crew and guards returned to the airship one by one, and under the gaze of those mobs, the Fury-class airship took off, left the rioting Xinwu City, and flew towards Huaiyuan Hall overnight......

……

After passing through the Karley Mountains, the demon army rushed towards the south like a flood that swept across the earth......

Cities have fallen, countries have perished, and the entire Weiyi subcontinent is trembling under the attack of the demons......

The Hurricane Corps stationed in Huaiyuan County began to withdraw in batches......

By late October, most of the country south of the Carré Mountains had fallen.

At the end of November, several Chinese wealthy families in the north of Jinyun Kingdom had all completed their evacuation......

At this time, Zhang Tie also gradually completed the preparations for the final lore he made.

……

On November 23, the Captain of the Hurricane Corps was on his way......

"Part of the vanguard of the demon army, an hour ago, has arrived on the north bank of the Yuanjiang River......" Director Xingyuan hurriedly came to Zhang Tie's corps commander's office, and reported the news in a calm tone as much as possible.

Zhang Tie put away his remote sensing crystal, just now, he contacted his brother, the family is very worried about his current safety, in the last month, Zhang Tie's mother asked Zhang Tie's brother to contact Zhang Tie three times a day to confirm that Zhang Tie is okay.

"The remaining troops of the Hurricane Corps will immediately board the ship and leave in two hours......"

"Yes!" Director Xingyuan saluted and quickly turned away.

Zhang Tie got up, took one last look at the office, and prepared to leave......

At this moment, Heller's voice, who had not been in contact with him for a long time, appeared in Zhang Tie's mind, "Lord Castle, there is a piece of news, I think you should know by now!" ”

Zhang Tie didn't stop, but he asked Heller consciously, "What news!" ”

"The poison of the mutant corpse miasma that you sent to the Black Iron Castle last time has completed the second mutation ......"

Zhang Tie's heart was shocked, and his footsteps stopped suddenly...... (To be continued......)
