Chapter 565: A Pyrrhic Victory

The ninth city has been slaughtered by half, and half of the city's buildings have become ruins, Fang Heyu calmed down at this time, while Chen Ruoxi didn't care about the huge consumption, and used a large array to slaughter zombies.

After solving the ninth city, Fang Heyu and the others rushed to the last city, and then Fang Heyu finally spoke, "Ruoxi, Nian Qu has never appeared, will it appear in this last main city?"

"I can't take care of it, we have to deal with those zombies, otherwise the civilians are really dying too much. ”

"Be careful...... in short"

Quickly rushed to the tenth city, but unfortunately there was no city here, only a piece of ruins and countless corpses, the entire city had been destroyed, all the population was killed, the manpower of the Dawn Villa fought to the end, but it couldn't turn the tide, most of them were overdrawn and fell into a coma.

Chen Ruoxi said: "Brother Yu, you are responsible for guarding, I will kill all the zombies." ”

The last time the big array was launched, all the three hundred zombies turned into ashes, and the Nian Qu that Fang Heyu was worried about did not appear, and everything ended like this.

Everyone's faces were very ugly, a main city of tens of billions of people was slaughtered like this, in addition to anger and self-blame in their hearts, their steps were too fast, and as a result, Nian Qu's counterattack directly caused huge losses.

Everyone was pale, I don't know if it was because of too much consumption or because of the anger in their hearts, after a long time, Fang Heyu sighed and said: "Let's go back, bring back all the injured people here, Nian Qu, the hatred between us has added another amount." ”

Returning to the mountain city, the atmosphere of everyone was still depressed, but no one dispersed, as if they were all waiting for Fang Heyu to speak.

But Fang Heyu didn't know what to say, the dead corpses in that city had dealt him a big blow, after all, to some extent, they were already his people, but he couldn't guarantee their safety.

Fang Heyu's heart was full of self-blame, secretly hating himself for being negligent, and even underestimating Nian Qu's methods, he couldn't wait to immediately go to Nian Qu for a decisive battle, kill him, and avenge everyone who died innocently.

Chen Ruoxi understood Fang Heyu's mood, why wasn't she like this, but she knew that this was not the time to be decadent and depressed, she had to cheer up and completely annihilate Nian Qu and his army, this was the best consolation for the deceased.

"Brother Yu, relax yourself, the sisters are waiting for you to speak. At this time, only Chen Ruoxi dared to speak, and the others were even afraid that Fang Heyu would anger them, although this possibility did not exist, but the depressing atmosphere also made them dare not speak easily.

Fang Heyu smiled bitterly: "Ruoxi, do you think we are too aggressive, after greatly improving our strength through the evil bead, we thought that we were invincible in the world, and as a result, we immediately suffered a heavy blow." ”

Chen Ruoxi said: "Although I am also very angry, but it is more open than you think, the two sides face off, casualties are inevitable, but Nian Qu does not need to estimate the lives of those ordinary people, this is the essential difference between us and him." ”

"I know what you mean, but I can't get rid of this shadow, and now even if I close my eyes, the corpses of the city will come to my mind......"

"So you can't continue like this, otherwise how can you lead us to defeat Nian Qu? And you have to think about it, what is Nian Qu's purpose in doing this?"

Fang Heyu was slightly stunned and said, "Yes, he must have a purpose in doing this." ”

"You just need to let go of the guilt and self-blame in your heart and turn it into the motivation to defeat Nian Qu, and you will be able to think through all this. ”

"You mean he's going to disrupt our pace?"

Chen Ruoxi nodded and said, "Yes, Ru'er, let's talk about it......"

He Xuru coughed dryly, and said: "Brother Yu, Qu deserves to be a sinister and vicious person that year, he is so much just to block the pace of our expansion, just imagine, under our protection, a city is slaughtered, then it will be even more difficult to recruit and absorb those cities, they will use this excuse to question us, unless we rob by force, but it is difficult to control the city in a short period of time." ”

Zhuo Jinxuan said: "This trick is really vicious, so that the speed of our expansion will be countless times slower, and the resistance is very large, and at the same time, several other cities that have been damaged to varying degrees will also require us to spend a lot of time to appease, which will also slow down our pace." ”

Fang Heyu suddenly got up and said firmly: "From today onwards, stop the expansion, focus on pacification, and at the same time increase the city defense of major cities, train the army, and arrange the formation to prevent the zombie army from attacking again." ”

"Yes......" the women led in unison.

"I'm going to cultivate for a while, don't bother me unless an army of zombies or Nian Qu appears. ”

Fang Heyu entered the state of cultivation, although he wiped out the zombie army this time, it could definitely be said that it was a tragic victory, and the self-blame and guilt in his heart made his state fall into underestimation. He knew that he had to take time to transform this state, and at the same time, he also had to take advantage of this time to thoroughly comprehend the last metallic rules, and then break through to the Golden Immortal, without strength everything would be in vain.

Chen Ruoxi handed over everything to He Xuru and let her handle it all, and then Chen Ruoxi herself entered the cultivation.

In this way, time passed little by little, and the Dawn Villa only stuck to these hundred cities and did not continue to expand, while the Yin Fire Sect was unceremoniously and continued to extend outward, and its territory was expanding day by day.

Ten years later, Fang Heyu has been completely freed from self-blame and guilt, and he seems more determined and confident, and his metallic rules have also reached a bottleneck, and he is only about to break through with one last kick, of course, he needs an opportunity.

In ten years, the Yin Fire Sect has expanded extremely rapidly, and with the support of Nian Qu, it has annexed more than one hundred and seventy main cities, and now there are only thirty or forty neutral main cities left in this chaotic area, and the two sides are about to meet each other in a short battle.

Fang Heyu did not continue to cultivate, but chose to go out, and then gathered everyone to study the next move.

Chen Ruoxi said: "The momentum of the Yin Fire Sect is very strong, but it is not our opponent, we just need to beware of Nian Qu." ”

Fang Heyu snorted coldly and said: "But you can't just let them be arrogant, I propose to re-form the killing team, infiltrate the opponent's camp, and specifically kill the opponent's leader, so that the other party panics and even chaos, which is called returning the other party's way." ”

Chen Ruoxi frowned and said, "Could it be that you have fallen into Nian Qu's trap again?"

"Hmph, Nian Qu is just a coward, I haven't seen him dare to come to our territory to make trouble for so many years, and he has been shrinking in the dark to command everything, we are going to force him out this time. ”

"Or the two of us going together?"

"Well, with one more person, who among us is the most efficient at killing?"

The women were stunned, Chen Ruoxi said: "If it is a massacre, I don't think anyone can surpass you, your strongest large-scale killing moves are born for slaughter, if it is just an assassination, I think Zixin is the strongest, and Qingqing can also do it." ”

"Then take Zixin with you, this time Zixin is the main force, let's set off immediately. ”

Since the two sides had become a fire and water, the teleportation array between the two cities was even closed, and Fang Heyu and the three of them could only teleport to a nearby neutral city before entering the opponent's sphere of influence.

The name of this city is Baicheng, and it can be regarded as the current frontier city of the Yin Fire Sect, it can be said that it is full of heavy troops, and even the Golden Immortal masters have five or six, which is already a luxury lineup for them.

Fang Heyu didn't rush to assassinate these people, but first wanted to investigate here to see what the background of the Yin Fire Sect was, how they arranged their troops, and once the two sides came into contact in the future, they would know the details of the other party. And Fang Heyu is most concerned about Nian Qu and the whereabouts of the zombie army, now there are not many cities separated by the two sides, so once the contact is made, a big war may break out, and it is obviously unrealistic for the zombie army to drive from the rear, so it is very likely that they will hide in this frontier city, or somewhere outside the city.

Fang Heyu said his thoughts, and Chen Ruoxi said: "You're right, but they also have a lot of frontier cities, and the zombie army may not be near this hundred cities, right?"

Zixin said: "Childe, as long as we kill a few of his leaders, I think that Nian Qu will not be able to help but appear, and to deal with Childe, without the help of the zombie army, it is not enough to rely on that Nian Qu alone, and then we will be able to lure them out." ”

Fang Heyu sighed and said: "Zixin, don't you know, this year Qu is cunning like a ghost, he can bend and stretch, such a method may not work, if we don't make it, we will still be in danger, this has been confirmed by many previous encounters." ”

"Then we will immediately run away after killing people, so that Nian Qu can't touch our whereabouts, right?"

Fang Heyu thought for a while and said, "Let's stay in the city for a few days first and see the situation." ”

The three of them settled in an inn, Fang Heyu and Chen Ruoxi in one room, and Zixin in one room. After the three of them rested for a while, when it was dark, Fang Heyu called Zixin over and said, "Zixin, do you think we will act tonight, or wait a little longer?"

"Didn't Childe say that he wanted to stay for a few days?"

"We won't delay our stay for a few days tonight, I don't think you will be tracked down here by Nian Qu and the others by your means, right?"

"That's right, Childe means to do it tonight?"

Fang Heyu smiled and said, "I just talked to Ruoxi about whether to eat dinner or not, after all, it doesn't matter if we eat or not, and then I suddenly thought of one thing......

"What's the matter?" Zi Xin said with some confusion.

"Do you think those zombies need to eat, or do they need supplies?"

Zixin was even more confused, and said, "In terms of the individual strength of the zombies, they shouldn't need any supplies. ”

"Ruoxi and I have always thought so, but if you think about it, how did the zombies form?"

Zixin finally understood a little, and said, "What does Childe mean that those zombies need to constantly devour their souls if they want to maintain the function of their bodies?"

"I'm just guessing, if relying on the Heaven and Earth Yuan Force can maintain their physical functions, then there is no point in us doing this. ”

Chen Ruoxi said: "But if they really need to continue to absorb the power of the soul, then they need a certain amount of supplies, and the person in charge of this matter must be Nian Qu's cronies, but this matter is very laborious, and they don't dare to use the evil ghost token, so it must be extremely secretive, and Sister Jinxuan's intelligence network has not collected this information." ”

Zixin thought for a while and said, "Childe, we must first confirm this matter, that is to say, we must confirm that the zombie army really needs supplies, and then we can find this team responsible for supply, and find the location of the zombie army through them, and then we can turn passive into active." ”

"Yes, this is what we suddenly thought of, do you think it is feasible, if it is feasible, we will study it carefully. ”

"Okay, just listen to Childe's arrangement. ”

The three of them discussed in the room for two hours, and at midnight, Zixin quietly left the inn.

The next day, shocking news broke out in the hundred cities, and the strongest golden immortals in the city were quietly assassinated last night, without even causing any movement.

As soon as this news came out, the Yin Fire Sect couldn't sit still, and the members of the Yin Fire Sect in the city immediately reported the news to the Fan brothers through various channels, and the hundred cities had already begun to cause panic, a precursor to chaos.
