Chapter 23 Barren Land

The mercenary generals are fast and dark, and there are all kinds of secret methods that do not enter the stream but are effective to break the defense, and the guards are actually not lightly injured, and they have to be carried by others to barely stand. The mercenary generals dragged him to the head of the city and supervised the process of taking over the defense.

Watching a group of mercenaries drive into the tower city, rushing straight to the fortifications and turrets everywhere, the guard couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, and said angrily: "What kind of ability do you have just by relying on a large number of people!"

A mercenary general laughed and said, "If you have the ability, you can get a dozen generals for me?"

The guard general couldn't help but be dumbfounded, looking at Zheng Guo, no family could have so many generals. This alone shows the horror of the dark fire.

The other general said disdainfully: "Your national teacher didn't last more than three minutes under the hands of my family, so it's not too late for you to block a slap from my family." ”

The defender was dumbfounded again.

He has made friends, he is a strong man at the same level, and he has a fair evaluation of the first battle of the national teacher. In their opinion, in fact, Liu Zhongyuan failed in his first move. After being hit by Qianye's primordial gun, Liu Zhongyuan was actually immortal and crippled, and he followed Qianye through those few moves, which were dispensable. I thought that Qianye wanted the onlookers to see Liu Zhongyuan die on the spot, so he intercepted it. Otherwise, even if you don't stop it, Liu Zhongyuan is old and frail, and he can't maintain the realm of gods, so it's like a waste.

These high-level powerhouses have a different vision from ordinary people. The one who came out felt the terrifying power of the primordial spear and bluntly said that those who were under the gods would die. Therefore, the guard knows that if he encounters a thousand nights, he will be killed instantly.

It's just that he doesn't understand why such a killing god would come to such a remote lower continent as Yonglu.

At this moment, a huge shadow swept over the city, and the battle patrol flew into the sky above the tower city in a low-altitude manner. Cruising at an altitude of less than 100 meters, in the eyes of the people on the ground, the Imperial Battle Patrol is a behemoth that has never been seen before, as if the entire block has flown into the sky.

The main guns sticking out of the bow, the rows of secondary guns on both sides, and the mottled bullet marks on the belly, but the stronger and thicker armor, all make people despair.

The guard was stunned for a moment, and suddenly his arrogance disappeared, and his head was lowered. It was only up close that he truly realized the irresistible power of this battlecruiser. The unusually smooth flight attitude and the agile retreat and turn all show that this is a big killer with no shortcomings in all aspects. Not to mention that Zheng Guo's fleet is missing, even if it is intact, a battle cruiser can eat it in one bite.

As for himself, if he breaks through the Divine Command, it is possible to break into the battle patrol and solve this behemoth from the inside. But now, with only a sixteenth-level cultivation, he can rise into the air, but he can't meet the standard of entering the void battle, let alone flying flexibly in the air, and he can't catch up with the battle patrol at all, and he is afraid that he will be beaten into a sieve in mid-air.

When he hung his head, he didn't notice that there was another person in front of him.

"You are Liu Zhongyuan's apprentice?"

The sudden sound made the guard startled, and when he saw the person in front of him who was too young and too beautiful, he suddenly remembered the recent legend, and lost his voice: "You are ......"

Qianye said: "That's right, Liu Zhongyuan was defeated by me." ”

The guard general cleaned up his mood and said respectfully: "The national teacher did guide me for a while, but later saw that I had no hope of being a god general, and there was a lack of people to guard the western frontier, so he let me out." So strictly speaking, I can only be regarded as his registered disciple. ”

"Your name is Xu Jingxuan?"

"Yes. ”

Qianye nodded, "I heard that you have a good record against the dark race. But why are there so few defenders in this tower city? Do you think that with just these few people, you can defend such a large area?"

Xu Jingxuan smiled bitterly and said: "During this time, Your Highnesses are competing with each other, and you all need manpower, so everyone comes to me to transfer troops." I was born in cloth, I have no power and power, where can I refuse. It's not easy to keep this little bit of people. ”

Qianye looked him up and down for a while, Xu Jingxuan suddenly shivered, only to feel that his whole body was swept through, and all the secrets were seen.

The blue meaning in Qianye's eyes disappeared, and Xu Jingxuan felt better.

"Now that the overall situation has been decided, are you interested in following me to the west and driving the dark race out of this leaf?"

Xu Jingxuan was a little excited, but also a little hesitant, and said, "My lord, this is not easy. ”

Qianye smiled faintly and said, "Of course I know that it is not easy, so when I fight, I always want to rush to the front, and you have to follow me." It is better to die on the battlefield against the dark race than to nest in Zheng Guo and fight among his own people. What, are you afraid?"

Xu Jingxuan's blood surged, and he said: "We soldiers, all self-cultivation, aren't we just to die on the battlefield, from the hands of foreign races for the clansmen, for the future generations to win a place of survival? If I am afraid of death, I will not come to this place to serve!"

However, as soon as the generosity passed, Xu Jingxuan showed embarrassment and said, "It's just ......"

"What's the difficulty, say it. ”

"My family is still in the royal capital. Like us, the border guards, all the family members stay in the core area of the royal capital. If I go out with you, I am afraid that I will be accused of abandoning my post and running away, which is a crime of extermination. ”

Qianye understood that this was a common means used by various countries to control the border generals, and the same was true in the early years of Great Qin. It was only later that with the formal establishment of the gate valve family system, the main force for expanding the territory became the major clans, and the control over the border generals was also released.

The clans who established themselves in the frontier provinces, and every cent of the land they laid down was infused by the flesh and blood of the clansmen, and it was the place where each family was ready to take root. When the dark race comes, there will always be a case where the defenders are all killed and will never surrender.

Qianye thought for a moment and said, "In this case, I will give you a few days to go to the royal capital and bring your family here." I'll send you a frigate to take you back, so you don't have to spend time on the road. ”

"But ......," Xu Jingxuan looked embarrassed.

Qianye said lightly: "Seeing the battleship, Nan Ruohuai naturally knows that you are already my person." Whatever you do, he'll say yes. Of course, if he really doesn't let him go, then I'll talk to him about it. ”

Xu Jingxuan raised his head sharply and asked, "My lord, are those rumors true?"

Qianye smiled slightly and said, "I just need a reason to do it." As for who is sitting in King Zheng's position, it doesn't matter. ”

"That is, even the thirty-first prince can be sent to the throne, who do you want to help, it's not a matter of rebellion?"

After sighing, Xu Jingxuan cautiously asked, "My lord, since you can put that one on the throne, why don't you just ascend the throne yourself?"

Qianye shook her head, "Zheng Guo is too young, and I don't have much interest in it." It's a good pedal here, but it's just a pedal. ”

"Then why did a character like you come to Yonglu?"

Qianye glanced at him, and instead of answering, he asked rhetorically, "Why do you think Yonglu is so desolate and poor?"

This question stumped Xu Jingxuan, and he couldn't get the point when he thought about it, so he could only say: "Maybe the land is too barren, right?"

The lower continents have similar problems, the land and minerals are poor, and the climate is not good. If the land is poor, there will be little food, and if there is little food, it will be difficult for people to live, this is a very simple truth. The number of people is small, and the natural strong are also small.

After listening to Xu Jingxuan's explanation, Qianye just stretched out his hand, and a force vortex appeared in the palm of his hand, like a miniature tornado, constantly moving in Qianye's palm. This little tornado has a strange hint of black mixed in it, and it is bottomless when you look at it. Feeling its breath, even Xu Jingxuan also had a creepy feeling.

"Is this the Void Force?"

"That's right, and it's the Void Force between the origin and midpoint of darkness. ”

"No wonder. Xu Jingxuan's forehead was already slightly sweaty.

The closer you get to the Origin of Darkness, the purer the Force becomes, which is the same as the Origin of Dawn. And the midpoint between eternal night and dawn is pure chaos. This chaos is quite stable. But if you deviate from these three points, the Void Force will easily have negative effects such as corruption and annihilation. Even the dark race would repel such a force.

Looking at the Force tornado in Qianye's hand, Xu Jingxuan admired his Force manipulation incomparably, but he was also a little puzzled, not understanding the meaning of Qianye's mention of this topic at this moment.

Seeing that he didn't understand, Qianye said: "This is the reason why it is difficult for Yonglu to appear as a top powerhouse, and it is also the reason why werewolves can dominate." ”

Xu Jingxuan heard the meaning of the words this time, but he was incredulous, and asked, "You mean, these are the forces of Yong Lu?"

Qianye nodded and said, "These Void Forces are so thin that you can't usually feel them on land. If I condense it like this, I can see it clearly. ”

Xu Jingxuan opened his mouth wide and looked at Qianye like a ghost. He had never heard of the Force being able to condense it, let alone in that way.

However, with the Thousand Nights Practicing the Taixuan Soldier Technique, and the Song Clan Ancient Scrolls, condensing the Force in a whirlpool is as easy as drinking water and eating. But in a place like Zheng Guo, how have you ever seen this?

After the shock, Xu Jingxuan thought about Qianye's words again, and gradually understood.

The environment was filled with the Void Decay Force demonstrated by Qianye, and even if it was just a small point, it was enough to drop the quality of the cultivation environment by a big step. In this environment, the cultivated Force inevitably has to carry a little impurity. Don't look at this impurity, it can make people fall short when they hit the gods and gods.

In Yonglu, there are very few people who can achieve divine generals, and the proportion is much lower than that of Daqin. At this time, when I think about it, the founding of Great Qin, starting from the lowest continent in the world, all the way up, sacrificing countless people, until it occupied a middle-level continent, it stopped to build a country, and perhaps there are also environmental factors in it.

Seeing that Xu Jingxuan had some understanding, Qianye smiled slightly and said, "Understand? This is also the reason why werewolves can dominate here." ”

Xu Jingxuan has fought with werewolves countless times, but his understanding of other dark races is not so deep. He frowned and pondered, but he couldn't grasp the reason.

Qianye was not embarrassed, and explained: "This Void Force is also harmful to the dark race, especially to the demon descendants, just like poison. Therefore, there is nothing that the really strong people of the Demon Descendants and the Blood Clan will not come here. As for the spider demons, they won't be affected, but they won't be beneficial. They have more important places to fight for, which are more suitable for the growth of the race, and they are less likely to compete with werewolves for such places. ”

Xu Jingxuan finally understood, "The environment of Yonglu is too poor, and other dark races can't look down on it, so the werewolf family will be dominant?"

"Exactly. ”

"Since Yonglu is so barren, why did you come here?"

Qianye laughed and said, "I can't beat people from other places." ”

Xu Jingxuan didn't want to hear such a frank answer coldly, so he had to laugh awkwardly. Yonglu is indeed in a harsh environment, poor and weak, but it is only a little stronger than the lowest level of the Eternal Night Continent. But it still feels awkward to be said to someone's face like this.
