Chapter 12: The Siege of the Orcs
"General Xu, do you remember me?"
Major General Xu Liang, who was dressed in civilian clothes, looked a little unnatural, but he still smiled and said, "Mr. Lu." ”
"What is General Xu doing here? I thought that this kind of place would only come to us little people who are struggling for life. ”
"Mr. Lu is modest, how can a friend of the demon lord be a small person?"
"Who is this?" Lu Chen looked at the mysterious hat man with a smile.
General Xu's Adam's apple squirmed a few times before he said, "This is the military's business partner, Mr. Lei." ”
"Oh, it turned out to be a partner of the military, but I felt very cordial when I met Mr. Lei. Lu Chen had a hard-to-find expression on his face.
General Xu Liang didn't know how to answer Lu Chen's words for a while, so he had to smile awkwardly.
The man seemed a little agitated, coughed, and pulled his legs towards the exit.
General Xu Liang was also anxious when he saw this, and he wanted to catch up.
"Hey, General Xu, I still have something I want to trouble General Xu. Lu Chen scratched his head embarrassedly.
"Say something quickly. Xu Liang asked impatiently.
"Since I was a child, I have dreamed of one day climbing the Canton Tower and having a beautiful view of the Pearl River...... Ahem......"
"Xiao Wang, Xiao Wang, you take Mr. Lu to the Canton Tower. With that, General Xu Liang had already trotted out.
―――――――――――
"I'm sure what Xu Liang told us, if not fake, is not what he wanted to say in the first moment. His Adam's apple squirmed a few times, swallowing the words he wanted to say at the first moment. Ye Yuxiao analyzed.
Lu Chen's eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something.
"Eh, what do you want?"
Lu Chen asked with a smile, "Do you want to go to the Canton Tower with me?" ”
"What are you going to the Canton Tower for?
"Of course. ”
―――――――――――
In Ye Yuxiao's room, several people formed a small circle and sat cross-legged.
"Isn't this just sitting on the ground and sharing the spoils?" asked Haiyue.
Lu Chen nodded.
Ye Yuxiao sighed.
Dongfang Bai looked puzzled.
Hai Yu Mu Ran.
Uncle is absent-minded.
Haiyue asked again, "How much money can I get?"
Lu Chen was absent-minded.
Ye Yuxiao said: "150,000." ”
Dongfang Bai's eyes widened.
Hai Yu Mu Ran.
The uncle pulled out a cigarette.
Haiyue then asked, "Brother, can I keep this money for myself?"
Hai Yu nodded.
Lu Chen is offline.
Ye Yuxiao is offline.
Dongfang Bai's eyes widened.
The uncle lit a cigarette, took a puff, and closed his eyes in intoxication.
Ye Yuxiao said: "According to the level and number of beasts killed by each person, the results are as follows. ”
"Lu Chen's eighty thousand. "Lu Chen is offline.
"Uncle eighty thousand. "Uncle is offline.
"Sea feather eighty thousand. "Haiyu has been offline.
"One hundred and fifty thousand moons. Haiyue glared at Dongfang Bai proudly.
"Oriental white 160,000. Dongfang Bai pulled his fingers.
"It's okay, let's go back. Lu Chen, you stay for a while. ”
Lu Chen nodded.
The sea moon is gone.
The sea feather is gone.
The uncle showed an ambiguous look and disappeared.
Dongfang Bai pulled his fingers and disappeared.
"Come over here. Ye Yuxiao's expression was a little weird.
"What's the matter?" Lu Chen and Ye Yuxiao came to the balcony together, where a brown clay pot was placed, and the bouquet of roses that Lu Chen bought from the little girl and later gave to Ye Yuxiao was planted.
"Look at the buds. ”
Lu Chen glanced at it and didn't find anything unusual: "What's wrong with the bud?"
"Take a closer look. ”
Lu Chen picked up the flower pot, observed it carefully, and finally found through the gap between the petals that there was a transparent projectile hidden inside, only the size of a soybean grain, but it was very exquisite. The center of the projectile is filled with a red liquid, and it is not known what composition.
"What's going on?" Lu Chen asked in a deep voice.
Ye Yuxiao shook her head, leaned on the railing, and stroked her hair that was blown by the wind.
Lu Chen cautiously probed his two fingers into the bud and took out the transparent pill.
Lu Chen held the projectile in the palm of his hand and looked at it facing the sun, but it did not reflect the colorful colors: "It's not a diamond." ”
Ye Yuxiao took it and observed.
Lu Chen looked at this strange bud and found that there was a note rolled into a scroll inside, so he took it out and unfolded it in his hand.
"What's written on it?"
"It says that this projectile is called 'Crystal Love', and it was given to you. ”
"And ...... This rose is called the Western Regions Mandala Seven Colors Flower, and it was given to both of us. ”
"And a string of numbers, 126508. ”
"The last is a line of ancient characters, the sky does not turn, and the mountains and rivers meet. ”
The two looked at each other and fell silent.

There are hundreds of computers in operation in the hall, the keyboard clicks to make a clicking sound, the high-power exhaust fan cools the heat generated by the computer to perform full-load calculations, and the unified operating system performs calculations that are difficult for the human brain to achieve.
No one spoke. Through sophisticated analysis, the researchers found that speaking a sentence consumes an average of 400 million exabytes of energy for a computer. Here, data will always be much more versatile than language.
"Scan a thermal infrared image of a thirty-mile radius beyond the Wall of Nero. ”
The dense red dots on the screen made the atmosphere in the hall even more dreary.
"The results show that the number of mammals today is 35% higher than yesterday and 600% more than today last month. We can conclude that -" Researcher One said to the Colonel in a low voice.
"What a conclusion. The middle-aged colonel, whose sideburns were already gray, asked in the same cold, deep voice.
Researcher One swallowed. He knew exactly what this meant, but as a veteran researcher with more than 20 years of scientific experience, he had strong self-control and the sense of composure that he had lived in the rational world for a long time.
"The Canton stronghold is under siege. ”
After a long silence, the colonel let out a deep nasal voice and said, "What is the level of beasts?"
"There are 296 D-class monsters, 8 S-class, and 1 SS-class. There are more than 20,000 C-class monsters and below. What Researcher 1 didn't notice was that his voice was severely distorted.
The Colonel felt that his eyelids were so heavy that he could barely lift them, and he could not bear a trace of panic and despair in his heart, he just wanted to go back to his room and get some sleep.
"If these monsters attack the Wall of Nerro with all their might, how long will the Wall of Nerro last?" the Colonel suddenly remembered that the buckwheat he had planted in his hometown's vegetable garden was almost ripe and ready to be harvested.
"Regardless of the defensive weapons on the city wall, if you only look at the effect of the beast clan's attack on the city wall, monsters below rank C will not damage the wall of Nero. A D-Class monster attack takes an hour or less, an S-Class monster attack takes ten minutes or less, and an SS-Class monster attack takes three minutes...... Or less. ”
"Where's that SS-class monster?"
"This SS-class beast named 'Shocking Wind' is currently located thirteen kilometers southeast of Guangzhou City, and infrared real-time monitoring shows that it is in a stationary state. ”
The Colonel waved his hand and motioned for Researcher One to return to his duties. The Colonel suddenly felt very hot in his mouth, and he took a glass of water, poured it violently, choked on his trachea, and coughed violently.
