"I'm sorry, Lord Marven. When we came, we met the demon clan and fought a battle. Feng Gaoqi pulled a bench and sat down. There are at least three times as many of them. ”

"How's the battle going?"

"Fourteen people died, and more than twenty wounded. The losses of the demon clan are four times that of ours. We also captured the prisoners, but they were too badly wounded and soon died. ”

"How many of you are here this time?"

"A hundred."

"One hundred!" Marven's whole face was gloomy, "Didn't the prince see my handwritten letter?" ”

"Yes, but now it's the prince who is in power." Feng Gaoqi reluctantly announced, "This hundred people were also personally selected by him." ”

The mad wolf was the first to hold his breath, "Half of these hundred people haven't broken through the [First-Order Sword Spirit]!" ”

Feng Gaoqi just shrugged his shoulders and did not answer. "There are ten [Third-Order Sword Masters] in the team."

"the ten [Third Order Sword Masters]..."The mad wolf's face turned pale.

Marven did not blame the rudeness of the mad wolf, and his own face became even more ugly.

"Tell me about you." Feng Gao Qi said.

"There is a [Soul Demon] that can capture people's minds and kill twenty of my disciples. There is also a [Fourth-Order Great Sword Master] Xu Zhenqing in my Demon Hunting Sect who died in battle. The Gray Wind stronghold thirty miles away from here was occupied by the Demon Clan, and all the disciples of the Demon Hunting Sect in the stronghold were killed. Crazy Wolf said.

"At the same time, there is also a [Fifth-Order Sword King] powerhouse who colludes with the demon clan in the Ghost Shadow Forest. In the next battle, I believe you can see many demon clans that can make sword qi and aura shields. ”

"Is there worse news?"

"The Great Demon of the Ancients." The wolf told him, "Before the stronghold was taken, the disciples of the guards sounded their horns three times. The escaped disciple also confirmed the news before he died. ”

Feng Gaoqi picked up an egg and put it on the side of the bowl to break it. "It's tricky!" "I hope you've mapped it," he said, peeling back his shell. ”

"Go get the map."

The mad wolf unfolded a map, Feng Gaoqi frowned, and then threw it aside and unfolded another.

"The location where the [Soul Demon] appeared is here, twenty miles to the south. The gray wind stronghold is here..."Marven said: "I was expecting you to bring more people from Lingnan City. For now, it seems that we can only hold on to this place and wait for reinforcements from the Master of the Gate. ”

Feng Gaoqi smiled bitterly. He could also see that the vicinity of the Sealed Land had been firmly occupied by the demon clan.

"How many demons are there?"

"At least three thousand." Marven said: "Among them, the strength of the [Level 5 Demon Beast], the [Snow Demon Clan], and the [Fire Demon Clan] is beyond our imagination.

That disciple said this before he died, and I can't guarantee that all of his words are true. The mad wolf thought that he was frightened by the demon clan, but it was undeniable that the news of the ancient demon was true. ”

This news was also heard by Qi Rusong for the first time, and he was also taken aback.

"What about us?"

"More than 900 disciples of the Southern Demon Hunting Sect entered the Ghost Shadow Forest and killed more than 300 people in battle, plus your people. In total, there are less than seven hundred. ”

"Heaven forbid." Feng Gaoqi bit off a bite of the egg, "The top priority at the moment should be to deploy defenses, and at the same time, I suggest that the little prince return to Lingnan City to explain the current situation to the prince." Please be sure to send more troops to reinforce it. ”

The current situation makes me go back? If my brother had seized power, would he have spared me?

"No, Rusong still has a task for him to do." Marven decisively refused.

"Oh? What could be more important? ”

"I don't need to ask you for instructions, do I?" Ma Wen said, "Since it is to ask for help from the prince, it is more appropriate for Lord Feng to send his own subordinates." ”

Feng Gaoqi swallowed the whole egg into his mouth unhurriedly: "It's reasonable." ”

"Lord Marven, I don't know if I should say something?" Qi Rusong said.

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"Since the demon clan has gathered such a powerful force, why don't they attack? To date, we do not have full-fledged fortifications. After they captured the stronghold of Greywind Canyon, they could advance with great swagger, and who could stop them?

The second doubt. When the two armies fight, intelligence is the most important thing. How did the demon clan choose to expose all their strength. ”

"What do you think?"

"I see what they are plotting! They chose to attack the Ash stronghold with great fanfare in order to disrupt the audio-visual and prevent detection by our scouts. Its purpose, like us, may be waiting for reinforcements, or waiting for some kind of force! ”

He even guessed that this time the demon clan would find a way to break the seal.

"What power?" Hearing this, even the stone snake broke its silence.

There was a rumor of wind outside the tent. The wind trembled through the stones of the camp, and tugged at the ropes of the tent with such a terrible sound. Marven touched his lips thoughtfully. "Some kind of power," he repeated, "could it have something to do with this?" ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand and asked the wolf to take out a transparent hedron and place it on the wooden table.

Qi Rusong touched it and found that this spar was extremely hard, sharper than steel, and exuded an aura like ice.

"This is a fragment of [Demon Crystal Jade]." Feng Gaoqi was well-informed and immediately recognized this thing. "Where did you get that?"

"My Demon Hunter Sect disciple obtained it near the Grey Wind Canyon stronghold." The mad wolf said, "What's the use of this thing?" ”

"Demon beasts below level six can make the aura kill them. And the demon beasts above level 6 sucked the chaotic qi between heaven and earth. Ordinary swords, aura can not hurt the slightest. You need to use the special aura contained in the demon crystal jade to hurt it. ”

"That's not all." Stone Snake Road. "You can use the special aura contained in the demon crystal jade to kill the demon beast, and you can also use it to break my [Sixth-Order Sword Venerable] strong aura shield!"

Marven closed his eyes thoughtfully, "These are all speculations, we must understand the purpose of the demon clan." ”

"Then you'll have to send someone deeper as soon as possible." Feng Gao Qi said.

"I don't want to put my brethren in danger."

"We are nothing more than a death, think about it, why did we choose to become demon hunters, aren't we just to defend the Antai of the Great Xia Kingdom to the death? In my opinion, the disciples should be sent out immediately, divided into three groups, each with fifty people.

We must find out what awaits us in the sealed place. Qi Rusong said

Marven let out a long sigh from the bottom of his heart. "There's no other choice," he reluctantly relented, "if you don't come back......

"Somebody will come back, my lord," said Qi Rusong, "if it were us, everything would be normal; If that's not the case, it must be the demon clan. And you're choking the chokehold. The demons can't ignore you, and we're going to make them uneasy. ”

"It's not that solid."

"The most we have died in battle. But we can die defending Bactria and defending the southern border. to buy time for my father to gather his troops; Our lives are worth it. ”

Marven sat in silence and gloom, as if unable to bear the burden of the speech. After a long time, he spoke: "May the heavens forgive me, you go and pick people." ”

"I'm on a team with the stone snake, you lead a team with the wild wolf, Lord Feng..."

"I'm also going with a team. Before that. Little prince, you'd better repair a book yourself, and I'll send someone to bring it back to Lingnan City and explain everything to the prince. Even if the prince doesn't send reinforcements, he has to be prepared. ”

"Rusong, do you know that this mission is extremely dangerous..."

"I am willing to live for the common people, without complaint or regret."

The old man smiled sadly. "Sure enough."

"Without further ado." Qi Rusong said, "Let's go." ”

When Qi Rusong and Feng Gaoqi walked out of the tent side by side, the sky had already dawned. The cold wind howled around them, rolling up their cloaks, and the pale red slag that blew out of the embers of the campfire flew in the air.
