At this time, all kinds of monsters attacked at the outer defense line of the slave department, they were already full of food and drink, and the strength of the attack was also much stronger.

But on the contrary, the human guards were clearly not fully prepared, and they returned to the battlefield with the fatigue of a night of fighting, and they fought hard against the monsters' attacks.

Food and attacks on all sides were decreasing at a visible rate, and more than half of the slaves were consumed.

And Ji Rong, who was supposed to be standing behind the guards and commanding them, was sitting in a faint place of protection at the moment, staring at the front of him who had nothing in his eyes.

"Chief!" When a guard saw Ji Rong, he rushed over, anxiously not caring how serious his injuries were, "The monsters' attacks are too fierce!" ”

Ji Rong raised his head slightly and looked over, his voice was faint, and he couldn't hear too much emotion, "What's the situation now?" ”

The guard who spoke gasped twice, looked up with difficulty, and said, "Although these monsters are small monsters with low attack power, they are very purposeful when attacking. ”

He paused, observed Ji Rong's face, and saw that he didn't find anything abnormal before continuing, "The monster that attacked just now tore off the iron lock of the first line of defense when we weren't paying attention, and is still greatly expanding the range of attacks. ”

After speaking, he looked at the ground with some apprehension, and obviously felt that the air around him became tense as if it had frozen, so depressed that he didn't even dare to raise his head.

Ji Rong seemed to smile, he stood up from the shadows, looked at the group of monsters outside the protection, and said expressionlessly, "How long can it last." ”

The guard lowered his head and clenched his fists tightly, and there was already a choked sobs in his voice that he didn't even notice, "We are already at the end of the crossbow, if there is another Qiqi-level monster, we may not be able to hold it for half a day." ”

"There's no such thing as a high-level monster." Ji Rong smiled, his slightly curved eyes looked unusually gentle, "That guy probably won't be able to control them." ”

If it can be controlled, it won't be a small tiger beast with Amu.

The guard was stunned for a moment under Ji Rong's smile, and then quickly blinked his eyes several times and came back to his senses, his face full of surprise.

The guy ...... Who is it? Is there anyone who can control monsters?

Ji Rong didn't plan to explain to the guards, he just looked ahead, his fingers lightly and rhythmically pointed at the wall, "Tell me, how long can it last." ”

The guard gritted his teeth, looked at the battlefield strewn with corpses, and said with difficulty, "If there are only monsters like tiger beasts, they can probably last for two days." ”

"Two days." Ji Rong bit these two words lightly, and the smile on the corner of his mouth had a bitter meaning no matter how he looked at it.

"I still really want her to die with me."

The guard looked at Ji Rong in shock, raised his head with a wipe of his eyes and said loudly, "Chief, no matter what, we will protect you!" Even if we all die, you must live! ”

Seeing that the guard's eyes were red, even though his eyes were full of despair, he was still looking at himself firmly, Ji Rong pulled the corners of his mouth, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, "What nonsense, go defense, we must live and die with the scene." ”

As he spoke, his dark eyes gradually faded away from indifference, and a smile appeared, and his gaze returned to its usual gloom.

After getting Ji Rong's order, the guards immediately responded to the call, roared and rushed to the front to deal with the monster with great fighting spirit, with a desperate ruthlessness.

And Ji Rong also picked up the gun at this time, knocked down the two of them with two shots in a row, and then fired two shots into the sky.

As soon as he moved, the guards immediately noticed that they were still aiming at the monster and pulling the trigger, but their ears had unconsciously begun to pay attention to Ji Rong's movements.

Ji Rong held the gun and tilted his head slightly, and the body of the gun became a little dazzling under the reflection of the sun, but if he didn't pull the trigger once, a monster's sharp roar would be heard.

"Listen." He touched the edge of the gun and smiled, "This is our world. ”

"No matter how strong these outsiders are, we will survive until the last moment."

His voice was not impassioned or worded, but it made the guards clench their weapons firmly.

Everyone knew it was over, but they were going to make it to the end.

This time the humans held out much longer, and when the monster completely retreated, the guards were still shouting with high morale.

Ji Rong was still standing in the very first position, but the wounds on his body were obviously showing signs of cracking, and the blood had soaked through the bandages and began to spread outward.

A new wound had been added to his shoulder, and the wound was deep enough to reveal the white bones.

"Chief, shall I bandage you?" A guard on his side walked over cautiously, and he was also covered with colors, which was not much worse than Ji Rong.

Ji Rong bowed his head, sat down on the ground, and let the guards toss with confidence.

The guard wiped the blood from his face and skillfully began to disinfect Ji Rong's wounds.

Ji Rong touched the gun in his hand and asked in a low voice, "How many people did you lose this time?" ”

"The slaves lost more than half." The guards concentrated on bandaging Ji Rong's wounds, and it was difficult to hide the gloom on his face, "The guards have also lost half of them." ”

"Where's the supply?" Ji Rong continued to ask.

"The weapons are barely enough, but there is not much food, and I guess we won't be able to eat a full meal even tonight."

The guard's face was gloomy but not timid, and his tone was as normal as usual.

The corners of Ji Rong's mouth were still raised, and from a distance, he looked as if he was chatting with the guards on a daily basis.

"Chief!"

At this moment, another guard ran over, his body was obviously much cleaner, it should be the guard who did not participate in this defense.

"What's wrong?" Ji Rong looked at it, his brows furrowed slightly.

This person was the guard who guarded Nguyen Qiao.

The guard took a few breaths and waited for his voice to calm down before he said, "Chief, Ruan Qiao would like you to allow her to go to the Tree of Life. ”

"Isn't the Tree of Life a place of supply?" Ji Rong raised his eyebrows, looking a little surprised.

He had already taken Ruan Qiao to visit the Tree of Life, shouldn't the location that Ruan Qiao want to see now be the supply office? It's the only place where you have a connection to the outside world.

What's more, at this critical moment, she shouldn't have any intention of visiting.

Is it related to the task?

The guard didn't know what Ji Rong was thinking, but he glanced at the guard who was bandaging his wound with some uneasiness, and paid attention to Ji Rong's every move with his hands down.

Ji Rong lowered his eyes and looked at the ground, and the hand holding the gun was tightly clenched.

If Ruan Qiao completes the task, he will leave the scene.

"Guards." He looked up and watched as the guard whispered.
