Chapter 272: The border is in an emergency

Tianyue City, located between two mountains, is the first fortress of the border city of Daliang.

However, at this moment, at the end of the day, it was like the color of blood, and the land of the border city was full of wolf smoke and wailing, and countless black beetles surrounded the city wall, and the bloody breath filled the sky.

In the general's palace in the city, several strategists gathered in the council hall, discussing and arguing endlessly, but in the end there was no unified result.

In front of them, there are a large number of ancient books and classics, as well as many miscellaneous and strange stories, and even market legends.

While they were arguing, a middle-aged man in armor strode in, with a thick bloody aura exuding from his body, apparently having just left the battlefield.

"How's it going, did you find it?"

The man's voice was hoarse, but there was a kind of coldness and slaughter, he was the commander of Tianyue City, Helian Xing.

Several strategists looked at each other, and one of the oldest old men arched his hand and said: "Dashuai, we have read many ancient books and checked many miscellaneous records, including the Strange Sea Classic, the Yellow Court Scroll, and the Demon God Collection, and even the Vientiane Miscellaneous Records......

"Enough!"

Helian Xing coldly interrupted the other party and said, "Ben Shuai doesn't care what you have checked, I just want to know what the hell that thing is outside!? ”

"This ......"

The old man's face was bitter, and he shook his head helplessly and said, "Back to the big handsome, we haven't found any information related to those insects, even if there are some similar ones, there is no way to corroborate it." ”

"A bunch of useless things!"

Helian Xing was furious, and couldn't help but scold, and several strategists hurriedly turned their heads to the ground, not daring to show anything unusual.

These Helian marshals are notoriously ruthless and iron-blooded, and they never take literati seriously, and although they don't kill people indiscriminately, it is not easy to deal with these little strategists.

Perhaps knowing that his tone was a little heavy, Helian Xing slowed down and said: "Those strange insects are really too weird, they are not soaked in water and fire, and they are difficult to hurt with knives and guns. ”

"Dashuai, how about using poison!?"

An old strategist suddenly proposed, but Helian Xing shook his head: "I have already tried, ordinary poisons have no effect on that insect at all, and some corrosive strange poisons have a good effect, but unfortunately the number of strange insects is huge, and the strange poisons are very rare, and it is not too realistic to want to use them on a large scale." ”

Speaking of this, Helian Xing looked sad again.

Several strategists were very ashamed, and said seriously that Helian Xing treated them well, and they usually directed thousands of troops and were high-spirited, but they didn't expect to be helpless at such a critical moment.

But then again, against the army, they know that human nature is greedy for life and fear of death, and they can come up with countless countermeasures, but now they are facing a group of murderous and bloodthirsty insects who are not afraid of life and death, how can they have a better way.

......

After a moment of silence, Helian Xing sighed and said: "I still have to go to the city wall to garrison, please continue to look for it, if there is any news, let people inform me immediately, I don't believe that those beasts have no weaknesses." ”

As Helian Xing was about to leave, a soldier ran in.

"Commander Qiqi, retreat, they retreat!"

Hearing the soldier's excited appearance, Helian Xing and the others couldn't help but be stunned on the spot.

"Returned?

"Dashuai, it's those damn insects! they're gone, hahaha."

"What!?"

Several strategists were overjoyed, but instead of being happy, Helian Xing had a bad premonition in his heart. Judging from his experience in the battlefield for so many years, it is impossible for the invading side to easily withdraw its troops until it has achieved a certain goal.

"Let's go, let me see what's going on. ”

After saying that, Helian Xing rushed outside in a hurry, and several strategists looked at each other, and then followed forward.

......

......

On the city wall, the smell of blood was permeated, and there were bloody limbs everywhere, and some corpses were blurred with flesh and blood, and their appearance was unbearable, like hell on earth.

"This ...... What's going on!?"

Helian Xing was furious, but he didn't expect that he had only left for a while, and the group of strange insects actually piled up on the city wall and wantonly killed his own soldiers.

When several strategists saw this scene, their faces were unusually pale, and those who were slightly determined were even more frightened and sat on the ground, vomiting incessantly. It's not that they haven't been on the battlefield, and it's not that they've never seen the brutality of a fight, but they've never told of such a cruel scene now.

Helian Xing's expression was extremely ugly, and he vaguely understood why the group of alien insects left, because they fed on flesh and blood, and after they were full, they would consciously leave, and then continue next time they were hungry.

What a bunch of damn brutes!

Helian Xing's eyes were torn apart, and he left to count the battlefield.

After some statistics, Helian Xing almost fainted when he heard the recorder's report. In just two hours, nearly a thousand of his sons died, and if they came a few more times, they would probably be reduced to death.

What to do!?

Everyone looked at each other, and there was a look of fear in their eyes, even the veterans of a hundred battles were sad, they may not be afraid of death, but they did not want to die to become the blood food of this group of beasts.

"I thought of it! I thought of it!"

The older strategist suddenly screamed in alarm, and everyone around him was startled.

"Old Mu, what do you think of?"

"I've figured out where these brutes came from!"

Hearing what Mu Lao said, Helian Xing hurriedly ran over: "What is the origin, tell me quickly!"

"This ......"

Mu Lao hesitated for a moment, and said a little unsurely: "I also heard from my ancestor when I was very young that during the ancient catastrophe, there was a kind of insect that fed on flesh and blood, and then I don't know why it disappeared. However, the insect is extremely terrifying, and feeds exclusively on the flesh and blood of all living beings, as long as it is a living thing, and no grass grows everywhere it goes, exactly like this. ”

Speaking of this, Mu Lao seemed to think of something, and a look of horror suddenly appeared on his face.

Could it be that the catastrophe of antiquity is about to be played out!?

Helian Xing naturally understood Mu Lao's thoughts, but he couldn't believe it.

"Quick! Order someone to find out the news from all over the border city, and in addition, report the matter here. ”

Helian Xing reacted immediately and hurriedly arranged relevant matters.

......

As Helian Xing expected, not only the borders of Daliang, but also the borders of the six countries were all in an emergency, and after the earthquake, many mountains collapsed, cracked huge cracks, and a large number of insects poured up from the ground.

And on the periphery of the Desolate Forest, the sound of a large number of desolate beasts roaring is often heard, and many Xuanists are curious to investigate deeply, hoping to gain something, but unfortunately after these people went, they never came back, including two Xuanzong and more than ten Xuanzong.

This has caused panic among many forces.
