The moon rises tomorrow, and although this dilapidated city is lonely, it is now bright. The living, having received material things, began to live their lives again.

Everything went naturally, as if there had never been a famine or cannibalism in the city. Everything is going well now, except for one teenager who is not very happy.

"The banquet is ready, why are you still standing here?" Jing Rui saw Zhao Yulong standing alone at the window of the castle, so he stepped forward to ask.

"Has the food been sent out?" Zhao Yulong did not look back, but looked out the window. The city was brightly lit, but it looked bustling.

"It's sent down, and the people who survived are grateful to us. ”

After listening to Jing Rui's words, Zhao Yulong nodded, but still didn't turn around: "It's good to send it all, just send it down." Sometimes I think I'm like I'm a demon, and if we hadn't attacked the city in this way, they wouldn't have gone through this. ”

"How can that be said? After all, this is war, and it is these civilians who suffer no matter what. There is no way, you should know better than I do, if we attack, our soldiers will..."

"yes, I know, I know. So I took the most rational approach when I was fighting, but I couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. I know that war must be like this, but it would be nice if there was no war. Zhao Yulong sighed as he spoke, and soon the gas turned into ice.

"If I want there to be no war, then I must do it for the common good, otherwise war is inevitable. Saying this, Jingrui stepped forward: "You are indeed different from before, you used to do these things without blinking, because you can always make the most correct choice." But now..."

"Yes, it's different, I've lost half of my soul, I've lost my blood, my decisiveness and arbitrariness. ”

"Then why don't you let go of these thoughts and come over for a drink? Don't forget that our Eastern New Year's Eve is also tonight, and if you don't have a few drinks, it won't be festive. ”

"Okay! I think I should drink some. With that, Zhao Yulong turned around and walked towards the banquet. This is Karta Fort, and Jingrui and they set up a banquet directly in the hall.

"By the way, have you found Marquis Laika?" as he walked, Zhao Yulong suddenly stopped.

"No, the old rabbit doesn't know where he went? Almost no one alive saw him, and the last person to see him was the soldier. ”

"That's weird, or you eat first, I'll look around. Saying that, Zhao Yulong went straight out of the window.

Even though it's the third floor, it doesn't matter. This doesn't affect anything, after all, when you reach this realm, this height is not a height.

'Where would he run away?' How would I face this situation if I were him?' On the deserted street, Zhao Yulong also thought as he walked, in his opinion, he must have to figure it out.

Marquis Laika didn't die so easily, Zhao Yulong knew it. After all, for such a guy who can say that a dead person is a living person, his mind must not be simple, so before seeing his corpse or confirming that he is dead, Zhao Yulong can't let down his vigilance, after all, the purpose of this time is to kill him.

But there was nothing on the way, although some of the townspeople had their supper cooked with lights lit in their homes. But this has nothing to do with Zhao Yulong, because these citizens will not take in the marquis.

So where exactly did he go, and why didn't anyone come to report it. No one said that they had seen him, and with these questions, Zhao Yulong almost traveled to most of the Karta Castle.

But there were no results, and nothing was heard about the results. Maybe he was eaten by some hungry civilian! ’

As he spoke, Zhao Yulong had already come to the back of the Kartal Fort, which was connected to the Cartel Mountains and was the most reliable barrier here. Of course, it was also because of such a barrier that the troops of Kartalburg could not be evacuated.

Because Zhao Yulong's army surrounded three sides, and as the last place, the Cartel Mountains blocked their way to evacuate. Therefore, once it is surrounded on three sides, the city will definitely be broken, so this is really not a good place.

'Is there wind?' Yes, inadvertently, Zhao Yulong felt the wind. While this is normal, it is strange to be able to feel the wind under the shelter of the high walls.

Therefore, Zhao Yulong walked in the direction where the wind blew, maybe there was nothing there, but Zhao Yulong always felt that he might be able to find the answer he wanted by following the past.

Thinking about it, it's walking. Zhao Yulong never hesitated, because what he could think of would definitely not go wrong. It's not a conceit, it's a trust in one's own instincts.

For a war commander, trusting one's intuition is the basis for being able to command all armies. After all, how can a person who doesn't even believe in himself make others choose to believe him?

In fact, there really wasn't anything here, just a hole under the city walls. As with most places in disrepair, there will inevitably be some holes in the ground when they collapse.

But it's different here, the holes here are a bit big and a little deep. Although the entrance of the cave is naturally formed, there are artificially built stairs inside, so there must be something wrong with this cave, at least in Zhao Yulong's opinion.

It was this cave that was making the wind now, and now he was in access. The wind blew in through another cave, and through the hole it made a sound of the wind, and finally it blew into the city.

The hole is deep, although you can see the stairs. But there were no torches inside, and it was all black underneath, and I couldn't see anything clearly. Although Zhao Yulong's eyes were not much different in the night, they were inevitably a little blurry when they looked at the cave now.

Obviously, this depth is deeper than he imagined, but Zhao Yulong doesn't care about this. For him, if he wants to fully understand something, he should approach him directly, so it was just an instant Zhao Yulong jumped down.

Just listen to the puff for a lifetime, and there is a bunch of splashes. After falling, Zhao Yulong found that because this cave is at a low place, it rains all year round, so that a lot of rainwater has already accumulated here, and now it has formed a pool.

And the reason why I look at it vaguely is because the water in this pool is too muddy! It's just that ordinary waterholes must not be so muddy, unless something stirs it up.

Someone has been here! Zhao Yulong's first reaction was that he felt that someone or something had come here. If it were a person, the only person Zhao Yulong could think of was Duke Laika.

After all, the water temperature here is extremely cold, much colder than the snow outside, and it is a miracle that there is no ice now. But at such a temperature, the strength of a person who can hold up when falling into the water is definitely not simple.

Naturally, Laika is really among the candidates, after all, as a thief, his strength is not weak, and it is not difficult to withstand the temperature of the water. What's more important is that Zhao Yulong also saw a sword in the water, which was Laika's saber.

The heavy sword he usually used to kill his own men, but it wasn't his weapon. His weapon is a small steel ball that is convenient to carry. Therefore, this heavy sword is only a symbol of his power, he is a wise man, and naturally knows what to take with him and what not to carry when he escapes.

Therefore, this sword is affected by the load, and he threw it here. However, it was also his bad luck that Zhao Yulong actually came here and saw this sword that was buried by water so that only one hilt remained.

But anyway, the water here is indeed cold, although Zhao Yulong can't feel much. But judging from the speed of his movements, his body should be a little numb. It was obviously a bit troublesome to continue walking in the water, but fortunately, Zhao Yulong had a way to stop walking in the water.

It's just that I don't know how much it will cost to do this, but now, why bother with those soul powers? Therefore, Zhao Yulong first flew up, away from the water, and then used the Ice Resisting Technique to turn all the water here into ice cubes.

Although there were only a few spells he had learned, they seemed to be very useful. Just like in front of him, he only consumed some soul power slightly, leaving himself a convenient passage.

It's just a pity that Laika should have gone out a long time ago, because Zhao Yulong didn't feel that he was freezing anything when he cast the spell.

Yes, it's a backwater pool with nothing in it.

No, there seems to be something in it, because Zhao Yulong just felt something. Although it was only for a moment, Zhao Yulong knew that there must be something at the end of the ice.

Because the moment his ice spread farthest, he felt like he was freezing something. It should be a big guy, because Zhao Yulong obviously felt that he was freezing a finger-like thing.

It's just that in that moment, just the next second, he has already broken free from the shackles of the ice and pulled his fingers out. It seems that the strength of the other party should not be weak, which can't help but make Zhao Yulong vigilant, and now his right hand is consciously placed on the hilt of his sword, and now this is the only one he relies on.

This ice and snow road is not long, just like Zhao Yulong had perceived before, it has soon come to an end. And here, Zhao Yulong saw a big pit, and the size of this pit was just enough to be able to put himself in.

And that pit was left by the monster that I had just sensed when it broke free from Zhao Yulong's ice. Therefore, seeing this, Zhao Yulong had already pulled out the saber on his waist and looked around, hoping to see the so-called monster.

But there is nothing around, there is a stone wall in front, and there are stones on the left and right, so needless to say, there is no need to talk about the back. Only above is the end of this hole, where ropes fall.

The rope looked new, and it was still smooth to the touch, apparently not used many times. And this rope is the thing that the thief carries the most, so Zhao Yulong can be sure that Laika ran out of here.

It's just that where is the monster that I perceived before? Go up the rope, this should be a part of the Cartel Mountains, surrounded by snow, and there is a small snow-white dirt bag nearby, but nothing else.

Even the footprints that had reached the dirt bag were gone, just as Laika had disappeared when she walked to the dirt bag. And there were still some blood stains on the dirt bag, which was very fresh, like it had just been left.

But there are no monsters around, so who is the bloodstain that Laika left behind? It seems that yes, because there are still small steel balls on the ground, but according to Laika's strength, even if he is hungry, it will not be too easy to deal with.

So what is it that can kill it with one blow? And leave no trace on this ground? Thinking of this, Zhao Yulong couldn't help but be a little worried, thinking of the finger he had perceived before, Zhao Yulong suddenly had a bad premonition, and now he looked at the dirt bag.

Sure enough, there was something wrong with the dirt bag, and now Zhao Yulong couldn't get close to him for a long time, so he couldn't help it. Now he suddenly got up and swung his fist towards Zhao Yulong, this was indeed a huge fist.

He was the size of the entire Zhao Yulong, and there were six such fists in the life of this monster. Yes, it's a two-legged, six-armed, snow-white, two-headed monster.

Zhao Yulong knew what it was, and King Yinhu had told him a legend. The legend says that this monster is called the Snow Devil, and when he stands upright, he is a small mountain high.

And the pedestrians who are usually used to curling up in a mass to eat passing, their strength is strong and they are eighth-order and sixth-level monsters. According to Dongfang's level, then his strength should be a sixth-order violent beast.

This is not simple, this kind of strength is not weak in intelligence, coupled with strong strength, and that natural and heavy fur is inevitably a little difficult to deal with.

And this snow devil is even more difficult to deal with, because he also has six arms, and two heads. This means that it is able to defend against threats from all sides, making him invincible.

Therefore, at that time, Yin Hu said that although he was only an eighth-order monster, he was actually capable of fighting with a strong man at the level of the Sword God. In this way, it should be considered evenly matched, after all, Zhao Yulong is only in the Soul Condensation Realm now.

It's just that this guy has too many arms, and it's really difficult to deal with it, so it's no wonder that Laika died directly at his hands. It is estimated that as soon as the steel ball flew out, his whole person was beaten into a meat patty, and now it has entered the stomach of this monster.

Therefore, in this way, Zhao Yulong can actually go back. But he wanted to stay, after all, curiosity had to be satisfied for him. Since this snow devil is said to be so powerful, how can he rest assured if he doesn't compete?

Therefore, he did not choose to run away, but stayed to face the monster. Face the monster's iron fist, and also face his roar.

However, Zhao Yulong was not afraid, although such an enemy was difficult to deal with. But Zhao Yulong just wanted to fight him, because only in this way could his strength be improved faster.

Yes, strength. Since he changed his body, Zhao Yulong's realm has been too slow to grow! It's too slow! The speed of ordinary cultivation can't make her improve at all, and what he needs now is a battle, an evenly matched battle.

However, there are not many people with the same strength as himself here, and ordinary competitions that do not involve life and death cannot stimulate the potential in his body. And he didn't want to kill innocent people, so using monsters as a sparring partner was a very good choice.

And this guy obviously doesn't know Zhao Yulong's thoughts, just when Zhao Yulong is another prey sent to the door. Now he is endlessly slamming his fist towards Zhao Yulong.

But Zhao Yulong was now deliberately dodging his fist, and did not try to catch it, or attack him. Now he just kept backing up, constantly backing and watching the snow devil's punching patterns and gaps.

Seeing that the snow devil had been unable to hit Zhao Yulong, he seemed to be angry. Now he has accelerated the speed of his punches, and it is only now that Zhao Yulong has seen the true strength of this guy.

It was a terrifying monster, and every time he punched the ground, it could cause a lot of vibration, and all this shaking caused an avalanche of the surrounding mountains to collapse and hit him.

Therefore, he was even more angry, and naturally his strength was greater. However, after a long time, cracks have appeared on some of the ground that he has hit, and if such strength hits a person's body, it is indeed impossible to catch it.

Not to mention anything else, at least Zhao Yulong wearing the golden armor and the Yuan Spirit Shield may not be able to ensure that his bones do not become powder. It's no wonder that this guy has a fight with the Soul Condensing Realm, and now it seems that this is indeed the case.

But a monster is just a monster after all, although it has some intelligence, but it is not too high. Now he only cares about killing Zhao Yulong, but he doesn't think about whether he can hit Zhao Yulong.

So every punch hit the ground, into the snow, into the earth, which was frozen harder than iron? In this way, he could naturally feel the pain, and in fact his fist was already a little broken.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for his speed to slow down again. Although I don't know if it's because he's tired or because his hand hurts, in short, it looks similar to Zhao Yulong.

In short, as long as his speed is no longer so fast, then he can take advantage of this opportunity to attack him. In fact, Zhao Yulong had already prepared, and the previous dodge had already allowed him to see clearly the rules of the Snow Devil's punches, and also knew the direction of his punches.

Therefore, now Zhao Yulong is taking advantage of it, and the vacancy where he closed his punches rushed towards him. Naturally, he saw it, and he had a great advantage for this guy with many arms.

Now that this punch has just been hit, and the other punches are still there, then use other punches to meet them. Therefore, seeing Zhao Yulong approaching, he directly hit Zhao Yulong with another punch.
