Chapter 17: The Tide of Beasts
"Yu Lao, I feel as if I have forgotten something. ”
Long Yuan, who returned to the house, was very uneasy, lying on the bed tossing and turning.
"Maybe your cultivation has improved too quickly, and you are a little uncomfortable!" Yu Lao said.
"No," but Long Yuan didn't think so.
"Beep-"
The shrill sound of the alarm interrupted Long Yuan's words.
Hearing the whistle, he couldn't help but say that Long Yuan immediately jumped up and rushed out of the door.
Standing outside the door, he identified the direction of the whistle, and hurried towards the direction of the sound with his feet "unsettled".
The villagers who heard the whistle were also in a bit of a commotion, but they all calmed down quickly.
The villagers in the houses locked their doors and windows, while the villagers who happened to be walking outside hid in the homes of other farmers.
If you happen to encounter a child who is not supervised by a parent, the villagers who have taken refuge will also take the child to evacuate.
This is the survival skills that have been passed down from generation to generation in the village of no return, and it is precisely by relying on this set of survival skills that the villagers of the village of no return can thrive here.
On the way to the west of the village, Long Yuan also saw many Heavenly Destiny Masters who were rushing to the whistle like him.
As a Heavenly Destiny Master, it is naturally impossible for him to take refuge like ordinary villagers. On weekdays, the Celestial Masters live in the best houses in the village, eat the freshest food, and enjoy the respect of the villagers.
But when people enjoy their rights, they often mean that they have to bear responsibilities.
The Heavenly Mandate Division is the last line of defense for the Village of No Return, and whenever the alarm whistle sounds, it means that the Village of No Return has encountered a crisis that ordinary people cannot solve.
And most of this crisis comes from the demon beasts in the Chosen Valley, that is, the legendary beast tide.
All the Heavenly Mandate Masters were all on their way, meeting each other, and they only nodded slightly.
After all, it was on the way to the battlefield, and the Heavenly Mandate Masters were not in the mood to greet each other.
When Long Yuan felt that at the west end of the village, there were already many Heavenly Mandate Masters who had arrived, and they were all looking towards the top floor of the watchtower.
This building, which is second only to the tower of life, is the guard tower, and there are four in total in the village of no return, which are located in the four directions of the southeast, northwest, and northwest of the village.
The whole body of the watchtower is made of wood, and the iron sheet is wrapped at the junction of the wood, and on the top floor of the watchtower is a two-meter-long horn, from which the whistle is issued.
Liang Jun, who had just arrived, jumped up and carried down the young man on the top of the watchtower.
"What's the matter, why are you blowing the horns?" asked Liang Jun.
"Wolves, so many wolves!"
I don't know if he was frightened by the huge number of wolves, or shocked by the terrifying momentum of the Liang army, the young man stammered.
Hearing the young man's answer, the Heavenly Destiny Masters all began to talk about it.
"It's going to be a beast tide. ”
......
"yes, I didn't expect it to be a beast tide. ”
......
"It's been almost five years since a beast tide hit the village!"
......
Long Yuan's body trembled slightly when he heard the young man talk about the wolves, and he finally remembered what he had forgotten before.
"It's that damn 'Blood Curse'!" Long Yuan whispered through gritted teeth.
Long Yuan touched his chest with his hand, and he could feel the temperature transmitted by the "Blood Curse" through his clothes.
Long Yuan had been staying in the village before, and he was only active in the vicinity when he went out, and he had integrated his Destiny Qi into the Destiny Qi of the Village of No Return.
With the Destiny of the Village as a cover, the induction of the "Blood Curse" was naturally isolated.
But last night, in order not to alarm the villagers, Long Yuan deliberately chose a place far away from the village of no return, and it happened that he was out of the shelter of the spirit of destiny of the village of no return.
What's more, when Long Yuan finally completed the ninth turn, he obtained a huge amount of Heavenly Destiny Qi, which exceeded the Heavenly Destiny Qi of the Non-Return Village by many times.
Therefore, even if Long Yuan stayed in the scope of protection at that time, it would be of no avail.
In a flash of light, Long Yuan thought through the ins and outs of the matter.
"It's really a disaster!" Long Yuan couldn't help but lament in his heart, he was inexplicably targeted by Liang Jun as soon as he broke through, and now he has attracted wolves.
But fortunately, he came back in time, and now there is a group of Heavenly Destiny Masters around him, and the most important thing is that they don't know that they are the initiators of this beast tide.
Just as Long Yuan secretly let out a sigh of relief for this, his whole body suddenly tightened, and he felt a sharp gaze looking at him.
Long Yuan didn't have to think about it to know who was watching him.
"He can't be suspicious of me!"
Long Yuan's heart suddenly burst out, the secret path is not good.
But soon Liang Jun's gaze moved away from Long Yuan's body, and Long Yuan's body immediately relaxed.
At this time, Zhou Meng, who had been practicing in retreat, finally arrived when he heard the news, but he came so late that he was inevitably reprimanded by Liang Jun.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, the Liang army also began to make pre-war deployments.
"All Destiny-level Heavenly Destiny Masters remain behind and use the Demon Slayer Crossbow to support. The Red Star and above Heavenly Destiny Masters followed me out of the village to block the demon beast group, and the orange star re-clicked to kill the king-level demon beasts. ”
Liang Jun is worthy of being the village chief who has been in charge for many years, and in the face of the attacking demon beasts, he issued orders one by one in an orderly manner.
"Do you understand?"
Liang Jun shouted with a mysterious spirit.
"Understood!"
All the Heavenly Destiny Masters said in unison.
"The old rule, those who retreat from the battle, kill!"
Liang Jun murderously warned all the Heavenly Mandate Masters.
"Long Yuan, you stay. ”
Liang Jun stopped Long Yuan, who was about to leave with a group of Knowing Destiny-level Heavenly Destiny Masters.
Zhou Meng, who was standing behind Liang Jun, also noticed Long Yuan in the crowd, and a sneer involuntarily hung on his face.
Hearing Liang Jun's words, Long Yuan had to stop.
"You made a breakthrough in your cultivation last night, and now is the right time to take this opportunity to consolidate it. You and Zhou Meng will go out of the village to kill the demon wolf!"
Liang Jun stared at Long Yuan with burning eyes, if Long Yuan dared to say a word, he could use this to make trouble, Liang Jun calculated in his heart.
"Yes. ”
How could Long Yuan not know Liang Jun's thoughts, he didn't want to leave Liang Jun with a chance to play on the topic.
The Heavenly Mandate Masters who had not yet gone far also heard the conversation between Liang Jun and Long Yuan.
They all cast sympathy and pity at Long Yuan, and some even had schadenfreude, among which Hou Si was the most obvious.
"Long Yuan, Long Yuan, now that even the village chief won't help you, you're finished. ”
Looking at the isolated Long Yuan, Hou Si's heart didn't mention how happy it was, and he felt even more wise about his decision to hug Zhou Meng's "thigh".
"Let's go!"
Liang Jun was very satisfied with the current situation, and waved his hand.
......
Long Yuan was silent all the way, and there seemed to be flames beating in his black eyes.
"Again, once again, because of my lack of strength, I was swayed by others. ”
Long Yuan laughed at himself in his heart.
"Long Yuan, what do you want?"
Just as Long Yuan was deep in thought, a rough voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Master Chen. ”
This person Long Yuan knew, although his appearance was not good, but he was the second master after Liang Jun and did not return to the village.
"Wait for a while when the fight starts, you stay close to me, and we can take care of each other. ”
Master Chen said with a smile.
Hearing Master Chen's words, Long Yuan couldn't help but be amused, the second master of the village who does not return to the village, where does he need a person who is not even a red star to take care of him.
This is clearly looking for an excuse to protect Long Yuan, perhaps it was Liang Jun's behavior just now that made Chen Shi very dissatisfied, so he took the opportunity to lose Liang Jun's face.
"Humph!"
Chen Shi didn't deliberately lower his voice, so Liang Jun, who was leading the team in front, heard it clearly, and couldn't help but snort coldly.
