Chapter 203: Invasion
The shape of the eagle's beak peak of Sleepy Tiger Mountain is indeed like an eagle's beak.
Its ridge is gentle to the east, but the west-facing side is inwardly hollowed, creating a protrusion towards the Desert of Death.
At the top of Eagle's Beak Peak, an outpost brigade of the Eastern Legion has been stationed for a long time, responsible for monitoring the movements of the corpse demon clan.
Since the Battle of the Three Days of Winter half a year ago, the army of the Corpse Demon Clan has retreated far into the cold and dark Death Desert.
After nearly half a year of repair, the Yumen Pass, the Hot Spring Pass and other passes that were destroyed by the corpse demon breakthrough have been restored.
It's just that the second line of Yumen Pass in the Great Song Dynasty has been broken through, and most of the 8A-level national tourist attractions have been destroyed, but it cannot be restored in a short time.
The wreckage of the war in front of the pass has been completely cleaned up.
The corpses of the Terran warriors who died in battle were all cremated after a solemn military salute. Their ashes will be sent back to their respective hometowns and enshrined in ancestral halls.
Of course, there are countless soldiers whose bones are gone, but they can only send back a letter to his family that they are "missing from the battlefield". This certificate will need to be 3 years before it can be converted into a war death. The spiritual positions of these warriors can be offered to the ancestral hall.
In the aftermath of the war, wives lost their husbands and children lost their fathers, but as time passed, these pains seemed to become lighter and gradually hidden in the depths of memory.
Tomorrow will continue.
According to tradition, after the tide of corpse demons, Sleepy Tiger Mountain will usher in a period of relative calm. Only the sparse skeleton zombies roam around the passes.
This will continue until winter, when the next wave of corpses, which are much smaller, will reappear. This annual small tide of corpses cannot be compared to the big tide in terms of scale and level.
The defenders of the Western Legion will basically not be in much danger with the assistance of the troops of the 9 major cities in shifts.
It will take about 12 years of small tide reincarnation before the next big tide will appear.
Therefore, although the outpost brigade of Eagle's Beak Peak is still on guard 24 hours a day, it still seems to be mentally lax.
It was nearly midnight, and even though it was late summer, the mountain breeze was quite cold.
Zuo Sanlang, a corporal of the Western Army who was on vigil, wrapped the wind tightly, rubbed his somewhat numb fingers, and whispered to his sleepy companion Ge Xiaodong:
"Xiaodong, stand guard, don't fall asleep. If you violate the military order, you will be confined to a light place. ”
Ge Xiaodong, who was little by little, excitedly moved, looked left and right, and complained in a low voice:
"Don't make noise, I'll just squint for a while, and I won't fall asleep. ”
Zuo Saburo chuckled: "You are still squinting, aren't you afraid that the corpse demon will suddenly kill you?"
"Who are you scaring about, the corpse demon was beaten so badly by us this time, you don't have to worry about it for ten or eight years. Ge Xiaodong pouted:
"Besides, the Hawksbill Peak is so high that even the Skeleton Dragon can't fly up, what's there to be afraid of?
Zuo Saburo was about to speak, when suddenly his eyes were staring at Ge Xiaodong's back, and he even opened his mouth. It's as if I saw something terrible.
Barely resisting the urge to turn back, Ge Xiaodong smiled:
"Lie to me again? I have already seen through your tricks. ”
Zuo Saburo stretched out his fingers and pointed at Ge Xiaodong's back tremblingly, and said in a trembling voice: "Really... Reality... A lot of real people..."
Ge Xiaodong sneered: "Pretend, continue to pretend, how many real people have you seen in your life?" ”
Zuo Saburo suddenly gritted his teeth, grabbed the torch inserted in the post next to him, and turned around and ran to the beacon next to the sentry box.
On the beacon tower were three piles of firewood more than a foot high. Zuo Saburo didn't say a word, and used torches to light the three beacon fires together.
The three pyres were already drenched with oil, and a little spark ignited a raging fire.
Ge Xiaodong was taken aback: "Third child, what are you doing? This is the highest warning." Sending random signals is a killing thing. ”
"Kill the head?" Zuo Saburo stood in front of the burning pyre with a torch in one hand. The fiery flame seedlings reflected his face red:
"You'd better see for yourself. ”
Ge Xiaodong finally looked back, and was stunned: "Okay... That's a lot of real people!"
I saw that outside the black clouds above the Death Desert, groups of gray shadows were flying towards the Sleepy Tiger Mountain.
These gray shadows are not too big, most of them are humanoid, without wings, and they are obviously not the flying soldiers of the corpse demon clan such as the skeleton dragon zombie dragon.
They didn't have flying magic weapons under their feet, they just hung in the air, but they were faster than bows and crossbows.
"Snort" Dozens of gray shadows flew through the sky above the eagle's beak peak.
Ge Xiaodong vaguely recognized that most of these gray shadows were skeletons, zombies, or lich figures. But it is afraid that it is in the shape of a skeleton, but the pressure on its body is like a mountain in the sea. The momentum far surpassed that of the biggest officer Ge Xiaodong had ever seen.
Of course, with Ge Xiaodong's corporal rank, the executives he has seen are also at the top of the division. But "Flying in the Sky", these are undoubtedly life-level lichs.
Ge Xiaodong's heart was cold. A real-level corpse demon, even if it is just a breath, can destroy himself, a level 52 creep. Not to mention dozens.
"Dozens of corpse demon real people, when did the real people become Chinese cabbage and start wholesale?"
Ge Xiaodong was about to collapse. What made him even more devastating, he swept his eyes and found that within the range of his eyes, there were still several groups of corpse demon real people flying through other lines of defense and towards the east side of the Sleepy Tiger Mountain.
"It's a big deal!" Ge Xiaodong's legs weakened and sat on the ground:
"Did the corpse demon clan be beaten too badly this time, and they didn't even care about the mainland convention, and went directly to the real people to fight hard?"
Zuo Saburo's legs trembled, and his performance was still stronger than Ge Xiaodong:
"Impossible, it is impossible for the immortals in the immortal realm to let the corpse demon real people run out and slaughter civilians. Just now, they just had to stick out their fingers, and our team would have to finish all the games. But they saw us reporting the news, but they didn't do anything. So..."
Ge Xiaodong: "So what?"
"So the target of the corpse demon is definitely not us weak chicken soldiers. Zuo Saburo affirmed:
"I saw them go straight over the line and go straight east. The east side is the hinterland of our Terrans, and there are a lot of real people of the Terrans, are they here to fight in groups?"
"What? The corpse demon real-life master has invaded in a big way, and has completely broken through the defense line of Trapped Tiger Mountain?"
In the general headquarters of the Western Army Corps in Xianyang City, Generalissimo Fu Li, the commander-in-chief of the corps, took the case:
"What do these scum want to do in flagrant violation of the Continental Convention? How many passes have been destroyed? How many people have we died? Will anyone survive?"
The Qingyun Continent True Person Convention is a continental convention promulgated by the Immortal Realm to the Lower Realm. If there is a real person who dares to disobey, the immortals will directly cross the border to suppress it.
In fact, before entering the crystal wall, the combat power of the corpse demon clan was definitely no worse than that of the immortal realm.
After reluctantly entering the crystal wall, because of the repulsion effect, everyone's level was reduced by nearly 10 times. forcibly suppressed a group of high-level masters into ordinary real people.
After years of war and peace, the real people of the corpse demon clan also began to abide by the "Qingyun Continent True People Convention". This is a helpless compromise after the strength has been extremely suppressed.
Real people, who are equivalent to nuclear weapons in all races, are extremely destructive if they are shot at will. And against real people, non-real people-level crowd tactics are difficult to work. Only real people can fight real people.
The Qingyun Continental Convention is similar to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. Provision is provided for:
"Real people cannot directly participate in large-scale wars"
"Real people must not kill the poor on a large scale"
"Fights between real people must take place in non-residential areas" and so on.
"There were no casualties and the pass was intact. This group of real people is estimated to have 550~600 people, with a level of 120~190. Its movements and goals are unknown. Guo Youzhi, confidential secretary of the General Staff Office, shook his head and said:
"Such a large-scale real invasion is really unexpected by the General Staff. We have informed the Imperial City and the major cities to prepare early. ”
Marshal Foury's color was a little pale, and he asked again:
"Where is the Zhen Zhen of our legion, Zhuo Zhenren? The corpse demon real person is coming to attack, without the real human combat power, we can't resist at all. ”
"Even if the real person goes out in person, he still can't resist. A cold and arrogant voice outside the door suddenly said.
Then the treasure of the Western Army, the 131-level Zhenjun Zhenren Zhuo Bufan, appeared at the door:
"There are too many real people here this time, and I definitely went up to look for abuse. It's better to quickly contact the capital and the four major factions, and send a large number of real people to deal with the invading corpse demon real people. (To be continued.) )
