Seventy-one, the pale young man (3)

Battered by the Red Monster, the pale boy was no longer able to maintain the image of the blood-colored demon and regained his human form.

There was a large hole in the middle of his body, and it was spurting out a thick blood light, and it looked terrible.

The Red Evil didn't even think about it, and the Void Probe Claw slashed five flames flew out, and the enemy was blown to smithereens. It and Brando then pounced, tearing the pale boy in two pieces and eating each.

The two battles in a row were a bit inexplicable, and the real danger had not yet arrived, which made me vaguely suspect that the people who controlled the Forty-Sixth stronghold did not want to start a war with Xiqi City. That's why we will refuse our recruits to enter the city, and Lu Bu and I will enter the stronghold and it will be an empty city. As for the subsequent changes, it is likely that it is another matter, since the people of the 46th stronghold have already let us go, and there is no intention of interception, it is absolutely impossible for us to strike again on our way back.

These conjectures may be correct, or they may be completely incorrect, and they are thousands of miles away from the truth, but I will not exhaustively investigate this matter, we have Xiqi City behind us, and we also have Yang Jian, one of the four fifth-order void phase powerhouses, and someone will naturally solve these things.

I didn't mention this battle to anyone, and I couldn't mention it to anyone.

Under my call, the demon species and the wolves soon appeared on our left and right, the recruits were very worried, and thought that this group of demon beasts was targeting them, and no one in the team explained these things for the recruits, and Lu Bu only strictly ordered any recruits not to attack the wolves.

There were no surprises for the rest of the journey, until we saw Xiqi City, and the wolves that had been following us gradually dispersed under my command.

When we were finally able to see the tall walls of Xiqi Castle, the recruits cheered together, and the tense nerves were finally relieved, and they were more enthusiastic than when we saw Xiqi Castle.

Lu Bu was not infected by the fiery fire of these recruits, he first ordered the recruits to put down all their weapons, collect all the Piercing Sky Tree poles, and still let the white-fanged beasts in the team carry them, as for the weapons we stole from the No. 46 stronghold, they were all left to me and Zhang Fei to deal with, he took Zhao Yun and them to clean up the team, and then went straight to Xiqi City.

The weapons we stole from Stronghold 46 were extremely valuable, each of them could be worth dozens of soul power, and one or two hundred weapons combined could be worth almost tens of thousands of soul power.

These recruits may not all be assigned to Lu Bu's men, and he certainly can't make a wedding dress for others and give these weapons to this group of recruits.

Zhang Fei and I stayed because I could summon wolves, and Zhang Fei was the "big butler" in the team, so he would be more at ease in Lu Bu.

When Lu Bu left with the recruits, I called the wolves again, and selected two hundred demon wolves, picked up these weapons, and went straight to the wolves' new lair.

In my absence, the demon breed led the wolves and migrated to Fengming Mountain, more than 150 kilometers north of Xiqi City, slaughtering the yellow-armored beasts that originally occupied a valley, and turning the yellow-armored beasts' lair into a wolf's den.

Although Fengming Mountain has such a name, of course, it does not exist as a phoenix, but it has a nest of reborn birds to live. Although there are only four reborn birds in this nest, and the strongest reborn bird is only a third-order, and there is no legendary fifth-order existence, it is still a tyrant of Fengming Mountain.

For this litter of reborn birds, all the demon beasts in Fengming Mountain are just food for their family, and the appetite of this litter of reborn birds is not too strong, generally speaking, one of three or five white-toothed beasts a day is enough to eat, and there is no serious interference with other demon beasts in Fengming Mountain, otherwise the demon species will not settle in Fengming Mountain.

There are at least dozens of demon beasts rampant in Fengming Mountain, and there are more than a dozen demon beast nests with more than a thousand heads, but apart from this nest of reborn birds, only a group of white-toothed beasts can outperform this group of demon wolves led by the demon species in terms of force.

Although the reborn birds are strong, but after all, the number is too small, the white fang beast group is the strongest beast group in Fengming Mountain, this group of white tooth beasts can be the king, but the number is too much, more than 30,000, which dwarfs the wolf group led by the demon species, but thousands of ghost moon demon wolves are enough to deter the white fang beast group, so that they dare not attack easily.

When Zhang Fei and I rushed to Fengming Mountain with these weapons, even Zhang Fei was amazed, feeling that this place was the most suitable and independent base.

With the Black God Pillar brought back from the Well of Eternity, and the weapons brought back from Stronghold Forty-Six this time, our team is also wealthy, and we only need to recruit troops to expand the team.

There is no urgency in this matter, after all, qualified fighters are not easy to choose.

Zhang Fei and I buried these weapons in the wolf's lair in Fengming Mountain, and then rushed back to Xiqi City.

Fengming Mountain is one hundred and fifty kilometers away from Xiqi City, one back and forth, plus burying weapons, we also spent about two and a half days, and when we returned to Xiqi City, Lu Bu and Zhao Yun had already finished handing over the recruits.

Xiqi City received a total of more than 11,500 recruits this time, and the damage on the road was not counted.

Although I don't know how many recruits were lost on the way, I can guess how many losses will be on the way to pick up the recruits this time. Our team was supposed to receive more than 1,500 recruits, but in fact, Zuihou only reached 800, but this is already the top three results in the recruit mission.

Even the most conservative estimates put more than 30,000 deaths, but in reality that number could double or even more.

This assignment of taking on new recruits made me realize the cruelty of dark shijie again.

To be honest, I couldn't recover for a long time after learning these numbers. Although I have been through countless battles, I still cannot do it without regard for human life, especially the lives of innocent people. These warriors went on an expedition to the dark shijie, and many people didn't even see Xiqi City, so they died in the other shijie, and this kind of ending was completely unacceptable.

But in Xiqi City, no one is as sad as me, and everyone has become very busy. After receiving the recruits, they were trained and then assigned to various divisions, regiments, and teams.

Because of the lack of manpower, Lu Bu, Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, and even my subordinates George, Thomas, Garcia, Li Kebai and others were also transferred to be instructors and train recruits.

I didn't really like to teach people, and I didn't have any interest in being an instructor, so I typed a report in advance to go out of the city to hunt monsters, and avoided this boring task. Although I went out of the city under the pretext of hunting demon beasts, I was not interested in the low-level demon beasts that had been swept away countless times in the vicinity of Xiqi City.

I don't actually want to hunt demon beasts, in addition to avoiding the boring task of being an instructor, I want to take this opportunity to go to the illusory city, I still don't believe that Zhou Jin will die.
