Chapter 173: The Signal Before the Battle
In the next few days, Ah Le didn't have time to go out to hunt zombies, and he thought about a lot of things he didn't understand in the City Lord's Mansion. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info This morning, Ah Le sat in the courtyard and thought about the problem. Suddenly, the black tide line pushed quickly across the sky above Ah Le's head, and the surroundings immediately became extremely dim, as if the night had suddenly fallen. He turned his head to look out, and could see that the light in the distant wilderness was fading away, and the black tide was unstoppable across the sky.
A blue light flashed in Ah Le's eyes, and he looked at his hands. The slender five fingers were wrapped with thin black light, and they were extremely active at this time, whirling and dancing, hitting Ah Le's skin from time to time, with a slight tingling sensation.
The dark world, ruled by black, is separated into deep and light blocks of color in the real vision.
Ah Le found that there was constantly dark blood seeping out of the void, melting like ink stains, until it met another mass, stained, and transformed. If you look closely, those rapidly changing shadows are all kinds of humanoid phantoms, all of which are roaring desperately, constantly fighting each other.
Suddenly, inexplicable irritability came to his heart, and in an instant, Ah Le had an impulse to throw himself into it and kill him. Immediately he came to his senses, and there was already a layer of cold sweat on his back, such a familiar feeling, as if he had returned to the days when the black blood attacked, thirsting for blood and killing.
At this time, an indescribable tremor rose from the deepest part of Ah Le's heart, and he suddenly knew what the black tide was.
That was the signal, the signal of an all-out war between light and darkness.
Ah Le slowly took a few deep breaths and stood still for a moment before jumping back on the locomotive and turning back into the room. After the initial agitation passed, Ah Le found that the influence of the Kuroshio Tide was still different from that of the flesh, which caused the sudden activation of the dark force in nature, which made the creatures uneasy, but the flesh and qi were the erosion and assimilation of the creatures' sanity.
However, this discovery can only be talked about for masthesia, and it does not reassure him.
Now that Sunset City and the surrounding area, perhaps the entire eastern part of the city, have been enveloped by the Kuroshio, it is impossible to evacuate the residents on a large scale. In any case, the city is safer than the wilderness, and it is unknown how large the Kuroshio Current's extent is and where it expands is the boundary. That is, no one knows where the safe zone is.
When Ah Le returned to his room, the Kuroshio had already crossed the area and continued to extend deeper into human territory. There was darkness between heaven and earth, and even the brief hours of sunlight every day had been lost.
Such a vision naturally made the residents of Sunset City extremely frightened, but when Qianye came out to inspect, he found that the various places were exceptionally calm. This is all the result of Ji Guosheng's iron-blooded methods, as soon as the black tide appeared, he immediately recruited Luan Wutao, Chen Dalei and others to declare martial law in the whole city.
These highly trained soldiers were all sent out into the streets, setting up checkpoints at important intersections. Then he went out on patrol himself, and killed dozens of people in a row, or panicked and caused riots, or tried to take advantage of the fire to rob, kill and set fires, and finally deterred the wanderers, mercenaries, and adventurers who flocked into the city.
As for the original inhabitants of Sunset City, most of them had become extremely honest when Ji Guosheng reorganized the military system.
Ah Le immediately went to Ji Guosheng and asked, "Is it a signal to fight?"
Ji Guosheng nodded solemnly: "Yes, according to the signal strength of this war, this is probably the most difficult battle in the history of the Bright Empire." ”
"A signal before the start of the war?" Ah Le was stunned.
"It's no surprise that you haven't heard of it, in the past, this kind of signal usually appeared in the Dark Realm itself, and at most it only extended to the far frontier of the Empire, covering a small area of the border. The news of the past has been suppressed by the Empire, which is the highest level of military secret. I only learned a little bit of news by the light of the old principal. ”
Ah Le looked out the window, and the sky was as dark as ever. However, it was not a complete night, and there were more layers of hazy dark red light in the sky, which made people extremely depressed, and it was indeed like an endless red cloth covering the entire earth.
In this world like red haze, there is no sun, moon, and no stars.
"Why are you so strong this time??"
"Maybe it's a coercive signal released by the ten native species of the Death Conference"
Ah Le was stunned, opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say, and said after a while: "How long will it take for the battle to spread?" Such an astonishing coercion means the same amount of consumption, even the native species of the Death Council will not do meaningless things.
"Maybe tomorrow. ”
At this time, Ah Le was completely silent, and at the level of all-out war, it was the battlefield of the entire human race and the dark country. Not to mention the Sunset City War Zone, the entire eastern part of the empire, and even the entire imperial army, are as small as ants. Of course, Sunset City's location is remote and strategically minimal, and maybe the big guys will find it troublesome to even glance at it.
However, because of this, if the city gate catches fire and the pond fish are affected, even if the aftermath passes, Ah Le's exclusive army and Sunset City will not be able to bear it.
Ji Guosheng also encountered this situation for the first time, and he is not very clear about what will happen next. But he and Ah Le have similar ideas, a large-scale withdrawal is impossible, even if the residents of Sunset City are ignored, the movement of the entire army is not small, who knows what will trigger the situation.
The only thing we can do now is to wait for it to change.
However, neither Ah Le nor Ji Guosheng likes to be completely passive, and after the two of them agree on a response strategy, they are ready to go around the city and the wilderness separately, hoping to control the situation more.
As time passed, Ah Le gradually got used to the depression and irritability brought by the war signal, and other than that, there seemed to be nothing else unusual.
At this moment, in the void outside the Bright Empire continent, a light boat tens of meters long was gliding. Its appearance was that of a spaceship, with several sails on its flag-like mast fluttering together, and its entire body was shrouded in a faint layer of Yuan Force light. The main color of the spacecraft is gold, and the most striking thing is the wrought bronze statue of King Kong embossed on the bow of the ship, which is solemn and majestic. There are wings on each side, propellers, and there is no visible power plant other than that. For a floatboat capable of crossing continents, its construction is surprisingly simple.
The speed of this light boat was unusually fast, even surpassing several famous military high-speed ships of the Bright Empire, and it flew to the eastern part of the empire in a blink of an eye, and then its speed did not decrease, turning into a golden light in the air, and it quickly disappeared.
Below the ship, the edge of the void was rapidly disappearing, and mountains and rivers flashed like flashes of light.
As he was speeding up, a gentle voice suddenly came from the top room of the two-story shipbuilding, "A distinguished guest has arrived, stop the ship." The man was not very loud, but it spread to every corner in an instant.
The light boat slowed down suddenly, and in the blink of an eye, it hovered in the air. The whole process was smooth and there was no sense of frustration. This is not only the superior performance of the floatboat, but also the control and operation are obviously the best players.
Someone in the void laughed, "Sure enough, you still caught up." ”
Suddenly there was a flash of lightning in the sky, and then the wind and clouds surged, converging and rolling extremely quickly, and finally forming a huge cloud that covered a radius of nearly a thousand meters. A person stepped on a colorful cloud and fell from the sky.
It was a real colored cloud, but a few meters long, and the style was the somersault cloud depicted for Sun Wukong in the two-dimensional world, the only difference was that it exuded a metallic luster all over, and the colored clouds occasionally had rune-like lines that flickered and flickered.
The person who came was Xiuwei, a pair of phoenix eyes were radiant, and he looked forward to the momentum of the world. It's not the new king of the empire, but who is it?
Liu Yuxiu walked to the deck, "King Qi is not harmed, it is really a coincidence to meet here." ”
Qi Zizai snorted, looked Liu Yuxiu up and down, and then swept the spaceship again. No one else came out of the two-story building, but the sergeants who were in the room, all of whom were looking at Qi Zizi, were all in unison, as if their sharp gaze could penetrate the walls of the ship and see them clearly.
Qi Zizai's face was a little gloomy, and he said, "Come down and speak." ”
Liu Yuxiu smiled faintly, did not answer, and did not move.
Qi Zizai sneered: "The four princes of the dignified empire, they don't dare to leave themselves for half a step to sit on the ship?"
Although Qi Zizai's expression did not change, his eyes flashed slightly, "King Qi should have just met with my seventh brother." ”
The feud between the Seven Kings and the Four Kings has long been a well-known thing in the Empire
Therefore, when Liu Yuxiu found out that the person who came was Qi Zizi, he was actually quite surprised.
Qi Zizai said: "I have indeed seen it." ”
Liu Yuxiu's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Ao, is it, what is the result?"
"Why don't the four kings come out to talk about it?"
Liu Yuxiu smiled, suddenly stepped sideways, and said, "Why don't you come up and sit down, have a cup of tea, and talk about things and personnel by the way, do you think it's okay?"
Qi Zizai stood with his hands in his hands, his eyes returned to Liu Yuxiu, like a flash of lightning, and said: "The fourth prince really wants me to go up? ”
Seeing that Qi Zizi was so aggressive, Liu Yuxiu remained silent, and only said: "Brother Qi, no matter what holidays you and I have, now is not the time to solve it, right?"
It turned out that Qi Zizai had always been so strong, and it had a huge relationship with the fact that his most optimistic junior was directly dismissed in the military department without warning. King Qi is also a king-level master of the empire, and the fourth prince doesn't give any face, which really angers Qi Zizai.
This death conference signaled an all-out war, and Liu Yuxiu went to the east to direct the defensive mobilization on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor. And the King of Qi has also become the strongest master of the Chinese army in the east.
Qi Zizai just wanted to take this opportunity to ask Liu Yuxiu for an explanation. If he really let Qi Zizi do anything out of the ordinary, he wouldn't dare. At present, the war is about to break out, and even Qi Zizi, a king-level master, does not dare to make a fuss at this juncture.
King Qi is just trying to regain some face in this sky.
