Shanshui City, a suburb, an inaccessible mountain intersection.

A barricade was erected and guarded by soldiers.

Qi Lian, who was wearing a mask, got out of the car with Qin Zijin, and the online car-hailing driver also came out and reminded: "You two young people pay attention, this place has been blocked from above, and there is nothing fun in this deep mountain and old forest, you can take a look at it casually, go back as soon as possible!" ”

After speaking, he glanced at the two-meter-long bag that Qi Lin was carrying behind him, with a little curiosity in his eyes.

Qi Lin nodded at the driver: "Thank you master for reminding us, we are just curious to come and have a look." ”

Ride-hailing is leaving.

Qi Lin looked at Qin Zijin, the other party glared at him, and his earlobes were slightly red: "Bad person, it's not honest to sleep." ”

This is the Nth time this Nizi has condemned Qi Lin today.

Qi Lin smiled: "Obviously, you sent it to the door yourself, and I don't have anything to do with it, right, this is called being affectionate and polite."

Qin Zijin slapped him angrily, except for the last level, the whole person was almost wiped clean by him, and he was embarrassed to say anything "rude".

The estrus is seen, where is the ceremonial stop?

Shameless!

The two of them fought for a while and walked towards the barricade not far away.

It's September, the weather is not so hot, it's starting to bring a little coolness, and they are deep in the edge of the mountain forest, and the temperature is even more suitable.

So even if they wore a layer of cold insect silk clothing that was common to both worlds in the inner lining, they didn't feel stuffy.

When several guards saw someone coming, they immediately trotted forward to meet them.

"Ahead of the military restricted area, idlers stop! Please show your identification! ”

Qi Lin glanced at Qin Zijin, only to see her smile back, stepped forward and said, "Hello, I am Qin Zijin, and the man next to me is Qi Lin who came from the call." ”

Qi Lin also took off his mask cooperatively.

Qi Lonely? The most powerful man in Daxia who swept the Sakura kendo world?

The guard's eyes lit up, and he immediately looked at Qi Lian, and was a little excited after confirming that it was him, but he still saluted faithfully, took the document handed over by Qin Zijin, and nodded after making sure that it was correct: "Okay, Mr. Qi, Ms. Qin, please follow me!" ”

The two got into the guarded army-green jeep and headed for the mountain road that had been temporarily opened by the military.

Ten minutes later, Qi Lin and Qin Zijin arrived at the final destination of the trip.

In the depths of the dense forest, a large clearing was carved out, and in the center of the clearing was a red cross crack suspended two feet in the air.

Ten meters out of the crack, the trench has been dug at a right angle, and a sharp wire barrier has been set up, and two rows of soldiers with loaded guns and ammunition are standing in the trench, and they are now engrossed in aiming at the crack.

And behind this group of soldiers in a front-line combat posture, there are several teams of soldiers who are sitting on the ground resting with serious expressions, ready to be replaced at any time.

On the periphery of the open space, a temporary operational command office was set up, which was a military green cuboid tent.

Qi Lin and Qin Zijin were brought in.

At a glance, I saw several people in the tent.

Among them, there are a few unexpected, but reasonable acquaintances.

The man wearing a one-eyed patch - Yagyu Jubei.

A man with an indifferent expression and a straight sitting posture - Pei Xingjian.

is often seen on TV, the well-known nine sections in the southwest region of Great Xia - Li Qichang.

Then there was the middle-aged elder who sat at the bottom of the conference table, although he was smiling, but his temperament itself showed a strong iron-blooded style.

When the iron-blooded chief saw Qi Lin and Qin Zijin being brought in, he immediately smiled and said, "It's Qi Lin and Ms. Zijin, come and sit down!" ”

Qi Lin nodded and greeted the people present: "I'm sorry, we're late." ”

Li Qichang, a man about forty years old, smiled at Qi Lin and nodded in welcome.

Although Pei Xingjian was quite familiar with Qi Lian, this person was naturally indifferent, so he just nodded calmly towards Qi Lian.

Yanagi Shibei looked at Qi Lin with a smile: "Qi Lianjun, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon." ”

Qi Lin didn't wear a translation headset this time, and he didn't understand what the other side was saying.

Seeing Qi Lone's bewildered look, Liu Sheng Shibei reacted, and a big voice came out: "Qi Lone. Jun, I didn't expect us to meet so soon. ”

This time, Qi Lin understood, and said with a smile as he sat down: "Liu Sheng, aren't you going to the outer region to achieve transcendence, why did you come here?" ”

A free and easy smile appeared on the rough face of the ten soldiers of Yanagi Shibei: "Originally, I thought so, but it just so happened that Daxia asked for assistance here, and I heard that Qi Lianjun would also come, so I came, and there is Qi in the desperate realm of the outer demons, and I can also be promoted to transcendental."

Qi Lin nodded in understanding, and the two stopped talking, and looked at the iron-blooded chief together.

"When the people are all together, then we will get down to business without further ado." The iron-blooded chief smiled: "Let me introduce myself first, I am Dai Chunhong, a division-level cadre of a certain army whose number is inconvenient to disclose, you can call me Lao Dai." ”

Dai Chunhong began to brief Qi Lin and the others on the situation.

The outer demon desperate situation outside was the crack that appeared in the second round, and the time was just four days ago.

Through the unique monitoring methods above, the army immediately moved to clear this mountain forest, and then closely monitored this desperate situation of the outer demons.

After a few days of guarding and killing, a total of 107 demons were killed, and the corpses of each of them had been transported to the research institute for study.

There are currently three types of Outer Demons.

Scaly Demon - Human-like in appearance, covered in scales, with fangs and claws.

Sideburns - Looks very similar to ordinary wild wolves, but has fluffy sideburns like lions, and is comparable to a lion tiger, with agile movements and great strength.

Tiger - Similar to the shape of a tiger, the tail has a circular structure that resembles a human head, and the shaking energy can make a strange sound, which will cause people to be irritable and shake, and it also has tiger-level combat power.

Among them, the scale demon is the best to deal with, and the tiger is the most difficult to deal with.

"We once tried to send five elite soldiers into it to explore, but we lost three and only came back two." When he said this, Dai Chunhong showed a look of remorse on his face, and then held back his sadness and said: "The two soldiers who came back have brought back some of the monster distribution and the location of the outer demon leader of the 'suspected core', you can take a look." ”

A map-like projection was cast onto the screen, marked with circles indicating the location of the monsters, and a prominent red cross at the top of a mountain.

"The terrain of the Outer Demon Desperate Realm is the same as the entire terrain near the Earth Star, and the location of the Outer Demon Leader is at the top of this kind of mountain peak."

Dai Chunhong said solemnly: "Please be sure to explore the strategy cautiously while ensuring your own safety, and do not have any carelessness." We still have time, and we don't need to be successful in this entry, and we must remember that after the five of you enter, the crack will be temporarily closed for at least an hour before it reappears, which means that you will have to stay in it for at least an hour before you can come out. ”

"Five? How did I hear that the maximum is ten? Qi Lin asked.

Dai Chunhong said: "Ten people is the limit of the number of relatively large Outer Demon Desperate Realms, this Outer Demon Desperate Realm is strictly said to be small, and after entering five people, it is impossible to accept others." ”

The operational meeting ended quickly.

Qi Lin and the others stripped their outer clothes, wore special clothes and simple shoes like flip-flops, and came to the crevice with their weapons.

At this time, a scaly demon had just been killed, and several soldiers stepped forward to drag the body down and seal it.

"Let's go, then?" Qi Lin took a deep breath and asked first.

Including Qin Zijin, the remaining four combat masters all clenched their weapons and nodded in agreement.

Qi Lin immediately stepped into the scarlet cross rift.

Like a gateway to the Outlands, it feels like you've passed through a membrane.

The smell of decay comes to the mouth and nose,

Qi Lin opened his eyes and immediately looked around.

The place where he was no longer a lush jungle was no longer there.

Rather, it is a variety of strangely shaped dry trees, shaped like the ghost wasteland where witches live in horror movies.

The low roar of the beast sounded from time to time in the barren forest.

On one side of the horizon is a huge black sun in the state of a total solar eclipse.

On the other side, there is a huge blood-red crescent.
