Chapter 241: Strategic Retreat
"Alliance leader, it can't go on like this, we can't hold out for long......"
Just as Yang Zhiyu was discussing with the alliance leader, another Star Emperor powerhouse hurriedly came and questioned the position of holding the boundary mountain.
The alliance leader didn't know, he asked, "Do you have any good suggestions?"
This Star Emperor powerhouse obviously had already made a decision, and replied without hesitation: "The soul array here is only effective for soul beasts in the realm below the Star Emperor, we are here to fight to the death with the soul beast army, which is extremely unfavorable to us, now we have killed more than 3,000 people, the situation is becoming more and more unfavorable for us, if we still hold on to this place, then we will really be wiped out."
If we can severely damage the soul beast army, we will be wiped out, the key is that judging from the current battle situation, we can't inflict heavy damage on the soul beast army at all. In this way, our sacrifice is not of much value.
Therefore, instead of making a senseless sacrifice here, we should retreat to the entrance square, where we may still have hope of victory......"
The alliance leader glanced around at the battlefield, at this time it seemed that the battle situation was stalemate, in fact, the human camp was very hard to support, every small battle circle, everyone seemed to be very difficult, and there were constantly people who were bombarded by soul beasts and fell to the ground, if they were lucky, they could still stand in a chic manner when they landed, and if they were unlucky, they would smash out human-shaped holes on the ground on all fours.
And those dragon vortices in the soul array have also been broken by seventy or eighty percent, presumably it won't be long before they will be completely destroyed, and at that time, the human camp will really have nothing to rely on......
The more the alliance leader looked, the more unpleasant he became, he looked at Yang Zhiyu and asked, "Can you contact that Tang Chen?" Since he has already set up a thunder array, let's borrow his thunder array to use it." ”
Yang Zhiyu shook his head and replied, "I can't contact him." If his estimation was correct, he should have gone to the Swamp of Ecstasy. ”
After a pause, he said again: "There are nearly two hundred disciples who participated in the sect competition hidden in that thunder array, we will lead the army of soul beasts over, in case the thunder array is broken, those disciples will be miserable......"
The alliance leader waved his hand and said in an unquestionable tone: "This is an extraordinary time, everything is for the sake of weakening the soul beasts, everything is for the overall situation, if you can kill and injure a large number of soul beasts, even if you sacrifice thousands of disciples, it is completely worth it."
Besides, you can notify them in advance to evacuate. ”
Yang Zhiyu thought about it and felt that what the alliance leader said was quite reasonable, so he didn't say more.
The strong man who had advised the alliance leader before had been listening from the sidelines, and seeing that the alliance leader had already had the idea of retreating, he urged: "Alliance leader, give an order quickly!"
The alliance leader sighed heavily, instructed Yang Zhiyu to take the first step, and then ordered a retreat. He personally led the human army, abandoned the Boundary Mountain position, and galloped towards the area where Yang Zhiyu was stationed.
Due to being blocked by the soul array on the Boundary Mountain, only a small part of the soul beast army broke through and chased after them. Then, as time went on, the soul array was destroyed more and more, and more soul beasts followed.
Looking at this posture, the soul beast army obviously wanted to wipe out the human army, otherwise, they could completely abandon it and go directly to the entrance square of the Wasteland Treasure Realm, instead of pressing all the retreating human army like now.
Nearly two hours later, Yang Zhiyu rushed to the valley where the disciples of the Mountain and River Sect were hiding.
The Heavenly Thunder Array in the valley has been open since it was successfully deployed, and Yang Zhiyu stood outside the valley and could clearly feel a strong sense of oppression and crisis, indicating that the star array here could completely threaten him.
He didn't plan to break in, and he didn't want to break in at this time, and he estimated that even if he broke in, he might not be able to break in, so he was outside the valley and shouted in the valley: "Terran Star Emperor Yang Zhiyu, ask to see Tang Chen Xiaoyou!"
Since the mutation occurred on the Boundary Mountain, the disciples of the Mountain and River Sect and the Xuanyi Sect have entered a state of high alert, and when Yang Zhiyu appeared outside the valley, almost everyone found him, speculating about his identity and the purpose of coming here.
However, after hearing his shout, everyone was shocked.
"That's a Star Emperor powerhouse!Isn't it true?When did we have a Star Emperor in the Wasteland?"
"This is not a wasteland...... someone else corrected.
"It's not a wasteland, but all the entrances are in the wasteland, isn't it the same as being in the wasteland?"
"Seems to make sense...... Didn't you say that the Star Emperor and above were forbidden to enter? Why is the Star Emperor here? Is he really the Star Emperor?"
“......”
No one had seen Yang Zhiyu here, and when he entered the valley to see Tang Chen, Tang Chen was the only one who saw him.
For this group of people whose highest strength was only a second-order star king, it was impossible to confirm whether Yang Zhiyu was a star emperor at all, and it was even more impossible for Tu Zhantian to open the formation door to let him in, in this extraordinary period, he didn't dare to joke with everyone's lives.
"There is no Tang Chen here, please go back!" Tu Zhantian replied, he had a half-believing attitude towards Yang Zhiyu, after all, Yang Zhiyu was able to find this place accurately and say Tang Chen's name, which was already very revealing, so he deliberately lied to test Yang Zhiyu.
Yang Zhiyu naturally couldn't leave just yet, and explained: "I am the guard of the human race in this area, I have seen Tang Chen, I know that you are a disciple of the Mountain and River Sect, and I also know that you have set up a thunder array here. The reason why I want to see Tang Chen is because I want to use your thunder array to destroy the soul beast. ”
After a pause, he said again: "I know, Tang Chen is not here at this time, he went to the Ecstasy Swamp to collect the Ecstasy Fruit. ”
Tu Zhantian couldn't help but be shocked, he didn't expect that the person outside knew so much, and even knew Tang Chen's whereabouts and what he did so clearly, so it can be seen that the relationship between that person and Tang Chen was probably not simple, so he asked, "Who are you and why do you know this?"
The reason why Yang Zhiyu said this was to prove that he and Tang Chen knew each other, and they had a close relationship, so as to gain the trust of the disciples of the Mountain and River Sect, so he explained: "Before you arrived here, I had seen Tang Chen, and I also told him about the Ecstasy Fruit, and even the Desolate Crystal Deposit could hide from the Soul Beast, I also told him. ”
Originally, the top secret of "the Desolate Crystal Deposit can avoid soul beasts" could not be widely publicized, but now that the situation is critical, in order to gain the trust of the Shanhe Sect as soon as possible, he can't care so much.
Hearing Yang Zhiyu's words, Tu Zhantian basically believed it, because he had already remembered that when Tang Chen led everyone here, he did mention that it was "I heard that the Desolate Crystal Deposit can hide from soul beasts", but he later changed his words and said that he wanted to set up a star array. Now it seems that the reason why Tang Chen brought everyone here is probably because of Yang Zhiyu's guidance.
