Chapter Thirty-Eight: A False Alarm
It was only when Tianyao's aura disappeared in front of her that Eliza's face showed a hint of pain.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa"
Below the spirit tree, a mass of branches spread out one after another, revealing a corpse with a hole in the chest and abdomen, it was clearly that Wan Qingsong was undoubted, how could he die, and why did he appear here? All this has become a mystery.
A few branches touched Wan Qingsong's corpse, but as soon as they touched it, Eliza's face showed a little struggle and a little hesitation, but after a moment, they all turned firm.
Those branches wrapped Wan Qingsong around the whole thing, and then little by little they peeled off the dirt under the roots of the tree and buried him in it.
Immediately, those branches were broken from the middle and filled into the hollow chest and abdomen of Wanqing pine, and the broken branches sprinkled a little green, and the ground gradually closed, and a cluster of wild chrysanthemums burst out of the soil, completely covering this area.
"You're so stupid, just as stupid as I am!I'm sorry, that's the only thing I can do for you, and from now on, we'll not be separated again!"
For the first time, Eliza smiled at the place where Wan Qingsong was buried, but unfortunately Wan Qingsong could no longer see it.
"Now, the one I love and the one who loves me is gone, my heart is dead, and my sorrow is gone, and in the future, I will be the spirit of the tree, protecting the crimson for thousands of years!"
After taking the vow, Eliza fell into silence, and the entire Spirit Tree Temple returned to peace.
On Tianyao's side, he first found Li He and asked him to notify the civil and military officials as soon as possible to restore order in the imperial city and settle the people, and then he hurried out of the city to learn about the casualties of the Yun clan, not that he didn't care about the soldiers, but that he was too excited before, and he didn't come to his senses until this moment.
The strange thing is that when he traveled all the way, he didn't find any trace of Kutun's army, and the battlefield seemed to have been cleaned, so he always felt a lot more refreshed.
Soon, he found Zhao Tianyou and them near the inner city, when he saw the situation of everyone, his face suddenly showed a heavy sadness, although he didn't know the specific casualties of the soldiers, but the soldiers still standing in front of him were no more than 50,000, which meant that half of the 100,000 elite soldiers were lost.
This is the core liliang of this expedition, how can Tianyao not be heartbroken?
"Big brother!!Are you okay?Great, I'm worried to death!"
Zhao Tianyou saw Tianyao appear, and hurriedly ran to him, ignoring the injuries on his body.
"Slow down!"
But Tianyao was extremely distressed, and hurriedly turned over from the Sky Devouring Beast, supported Zhao Tianyou, and then used the power of the water dragon to heal him, feeling the ubiquitous dark wounds in Zhao Tianyou's body, and he blamed himself in his heart.
"Big brother, have you found Empress Eliza? Is she okay? Hey, this time it's a shame, if it weren't for the Kutun reinforcements, we would be planted here!"
Zhao Tianyou was thick on the outside and thin on the inside, and hurriedly changed the topic.
"Found it, but, hey, it's hard to say, how are the brothers?"
Tianyao didn't want to tell Zhao Tianyou about Eliza's situation, but asked about the soldiers' situation.
"Fortunately in misfortune, the Kutun reinforcements came in time, and most of the brothers were saved in time, but five thousand people still died at the hands of monsters!"
Zhao Tianyou thought of those soldiers who had no corpses, and his heart was filled with uncontrollable anger and grief.
"Wait, what are you talking about? How many brothers did you say died?"
Tianyao was stunned when he heard this, and looked forward, yes, at most 50,000 people, but why did Zhao Tianyou say that he only sacrificed 5,000.
"Five thousand, what's wrong? Big brother, don't be sad, the big guys know that you are the hardest, hey big brother!"
Zhao Tianyou said, and suddenly found that Tianyao ran towards the soldiers with a strange expression, and hurriedly followed.
When the soldiers saw Tianyao running over, they straightened up and signaled to him, but found that after approaching, Tianyao's face suddenly showed a look of surprise, which made everyone a little baffled.
"I see!"
Tianyao looked at the "living dead" lying all over the ground behind the tens of thousands of soldiers, and really wanted to let out a loud daxiao, but when he thought of the five thousand soldiers who had died, he really couldn't laugh, and his whole face became extremely complicated.
After a while, he held back a sentence: "Let the soldiers recuperate from their injuries, and you take the fighters into the city to maintain order, by the way, have you seen the Kutun Pioneer Army?"
"No, what's wrong! Didn't they go into the city? Didn't the eldest brother Yujian, by the way, there is a woman in black clothes who is very smelly, she must look good next time!"
Zhao Tianyou was very puzzled by Tianyao's question.
"No, it's strange! Forget it, ask Tianxiang when the time comes, let's go to the city first!"
After Tianyao finished speaking, he left a part of the warriors to protect his companions, and then took Zhao Tianyou and the fighters into the Crimson Imperial City.
At this moment, the Kutun pioneer army that Tianyao was thinking about had already left the Crimson Imperial City and marched to the south.
Looking at the lineup, it seems to be a lot bigger than before entering Crimson, densely packed, stretching for dozens of miles on the entire official road.
If you look down from the sky, you will find that a large number of troops are approaching the south more than 100 miles away from the east and west, and from the direction, the three armies will meet in Liuli City, which is 500 miles away to the south.
All the monsters along the way were wiped out by these three huge armies, and the corpses left on the ground were also carried by them and marched together, even if they only had severed hands and feet, they did not discard them.
Along the way, these warriors did not rest, did not drink, did not excrete, and did not sleep, they just walked five hundred miles without stopping, and this scene has far exceeded the highest marching record in the history of the Miracle Continent.
In the evening of the next day, the three armies converged at the north gate of Liuli City, and a thick white mist gathered between this heaven and earth, actually blowing away the blood around Liuli City.
Roughly counted, the integrated army totaled two million people, and just standing there formed an invisible force that could scare ordinary people to death.
I saw eight generals walking out of the army, four before and four behind, and soon, they came to a boulder, and a young man was standing on the boulder, looking at the army from afar, looking a little lonely.
"Wang, the whole army is ready for transformation!"
Shi Lan looked at the man's expression, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, but she quickly controlled her mind and spoke.
"How many bodies have been found?"
The Walking Dead King glanced at her faintly and asked.
"Since the main way of promotion of these monsters is to devour humans, the collection of corpses is not very ideal, and they searched many cities along the way, and found a total of 620,000 complete corpses, 3 million corpses, 8 million severed limbs, and all the complete corpses have been transformed into clansmen, how to ask the king for instructions next!"
Shi Lan replied in detail, and the Walking Dead King listened very carefully.
"Thank you for your hard work! Send the order to go down, immediately dig the flower pond, and pile up the corpses and severed limbs in it! After the dug is completed, the transformation ceremony will be held immediately, and there is not much time left for us, and this time, we have no advantage!"
"Yes, King!"
The eight of them answered in unison, and then turned back to carry out the king's orders.
