Chapter 225: The Battle of the Beast Tide (1)

Chapter 225: The Battle of the Beast Tide (1)

Zhao Di, who was wearing a black gauze hat, was suspended somewhere above the huge city wall of Island No. 1, quietly watching a thousand-strong army under him. More than ten zhang away from him is one of the main stewards of the Outer Sea Merchant Alliance, Master of Enlightenment.

This force was all composed of a thousand high-level Qi Refining Stage cultivators, each holding a medium-grade spirit tool in their hands.

There are two kinds of these medium-grade spirit tools, the Fire Feather Bow and the Sky Shaking Cannon. Both of these are long-range offensive spirit tools, with average accuracy and flexibility, but they have a wide range of attacks, are not badly powerful, and consume a lot of spiritual power.

It was Zhao Di himself who personally designed these two spiritual tools, which fully met the basic requirements of the Outer Sea Business Alliance, which made Dingjue very satisfied.

At this time, a monk in the late stage of foundation building stepped on a floating boat in mid-air, waving two large order flags in his hand, and constantly gave various instructions to the thousands of Qi refining stage monks under him.

These thousand monks, according to these instructions, each manipulated the spirit equipment in their hands, making attacks or retreating movements. They split into two intersecting phalanxes, one of which attacks and immediately retreats, while the other moves forward and continues to launch a wave of attacks. Then it was withdrawn and replaced with the next wave.

Although these spirit tools have not yet been loaded with mid-level spirit stones, and they can't see the specific power, this thousand-strong army has rules to follow between advance and retreat, and it is obviously carefully trained.

"How is it, what does Master Zhao think of this thousand-person phalanx?" Dingjue smiled and said to Zhao Di, a little proud.

"Properly coordinated, neat and orderly, it is indeed good, but these spirit tools have to replace a spirit stone every ten attacks, such a dense non-stop attack, although it is extremely powerful, but the loss of spirit stones is also very serious. Moreover, these spirit tools are relatively rough, and the interval between two attacks should not be too short, otherwise they can be easily damaged. ”

"Oh, what is Lord Zhao's opinion?" Dingjue was slightly stunned, and Zhao Di's words were the key to the stakes.

Zhao Di said with a smile: "I don't have any high opinions, but I think that if this team is dispersed into a team of hundreds of people, it may be more flexible to practice and cooperate." And there are many conveniences between advance and retreat......"

Zhao Di and Dingjue chatted like this, and it was half an hour.

He has a lot of experience in the training and cooperation of dozens of puppets, and now that he has changed to a human monk, there are still many rules that can be used for reference, so he said a few at random, which made the other party suddenly feel enlightened like an initiation.

"Hehe, I didn't expect that Zhao Shizhu had such insight in the way of arranging troops, which opened the eyes of the poor monks. Well, the poor monk followed the benefactor's suggestion and made slight changes. The donor did the Waihai Merchant Alliance a great favor, and the poor monk thanked the donor for the Alliance. Dingjue was very excited, he originally just wanted Zhao Di to see this extremely powerful spirit apparatus force, so that he could see that the spirit apparatus he designed was useful, but he didn't expect the other party to have so many whimsical ideas, making this team more flexible and fickle.

"Master Dingjue is polite, but Zhao also has a matter to ask for, and ask the master to make it convenient" Zhao Di changed the topic.

"Hehe, this is easy to say, as long as it does not violate the purpose of this alliance, the poor monk will definitely serve" Dingjue looked at Zhao Di with a little doubt.

"I want to ask Guimeng to inquire about a person's origin and identity, the more detailed the better, of course, this person is only a foundation building period monk, and he is on this island. Zhao said, threw a jade slip to the other party, and continued: "This jade slip is engraved with the person's appearance, if the master has news, please inform the following." There is no hurry in this matter, and the master can arrange for his subordinates to investigate slowly. ”

"It's just a foundation-building monk on the island?" This is easy to do, and the alliance will find out clearly, and the donor will wait for the news."

After a while, Dingjue flew to the city wall and chatted with the monks of the late stage of the foundation building who commanded the thousand-strong troops with the command banner.

Soon, the thousand-strong troops continued to drill in a different way.

......

This is only one in the middle of the city wall, and on this huge city wall that is thousands of miles long, there are mortals and monks everywhere. In terms of numbers, of course, it is mortals who make up the vast majority.

There are hundreds of millions of mortals on Island No. 1, and at this time, there are no less than 10 million young and strong laborers around this city wall, and almost all of them have joined in this action to resist the beast tide. There are also a small number of elderly people and women who have also voluntarily joined the team and undertaken some things within their ability.

If Island No. 1 is breached by the beast tide, some monks will still be able to escape through the teleportation array or hide in a hidden place, but none of these mortals will be spared.

On this day, Zhao Di slowly flew along the city wall, inspecting whether there was any commotion or accidents.

Although the beast tide has not yet come to Island No. 1 for the time being, every monk who chooses to stay on Island No. 1 to resist the beast tide has been assigned a certain task or errand.

Some go to the front line to detect and control the specific movement of the beast tide, when they will come to Island No. 1, how many demon beasts there are, what level they are based on, etc., these information are very important for the deployment of defense, and the monk's divine sense and speed of escape are high, so many monks in the Yudan period have been arranged for this task.

There are also some monks with special skills, who are arranged to specialize in refining weapons or repairing city walls, engraving spells, arranging formations, etc., and there are quite a few of them.

As for the position of inspector held by Zhao Di, it was a particularly easy duty, which was specially arranged by Sure Knowing that he did not want to reveal his identity and was inconvenient to coexist with other monks.

Flying all the way, all you see are busy figures, monks flying back and forth on the city walls, carving spells, and mortals building one catapult after another, giant crossbows.

Occasionally, I would see some monks in the foundation building period practicing magic weapons together, forming a group of twenty or thirty-one teams, which seemed to be in contact with each other, attacking and defending each other.

Everywhere in the city wall, there are arm-thick cables, hanging extremely heavy items, slowly transported upward from the foot of the city wall, although with the help of pulleys, buckets and other tools, such a mode of transportation is still extremely inefficient, often hundreds of people spend several hours, can pull up 10,000 catties of goods from under the corner. But because of the huge number of mortals involved in the transportation, those extremely heavy boulders, long logs, and iron arrows were being transported to the city wall in an endless stream, and the number of them made Zhao Di sigh secretly.

Those boulders are just that, there are huge stone mountains on three sides of Island No. 1, which can be collected everywhere, but those iron arrows three or four zhang long are so numerous that they seem to have been prepared for many years

Suddenly, Zhao Di saw a catapult from a distance, surrounded by hundreds of mortals, and other people around him also surrounded him. Zhao Di's body turned into a blue light, and he rushed here in a moment.

"What's going on?" Zhao Di stopped and appeared a few feet above everyone, asking in a hoarse voice.

A round-faced young man who looked like a Qi Refining Stage monk had arrived one step ahead of Zhao Di, and after he saw Zhao Di, he respectfully saluted and replied, "Back to the seniors, there are two mortals who had an accident when building this catapult and died under the giant tree. ”

Sure enough, in the center of the crowd, there were more than ten people crying bitterly, and beside them there was a giant tree three or four zhang long and three feet thick, which broke open from the middle, and under one end of the fallen giant tree, it was pressing down two mortals, and even their bodies were already blurred with flesh and blood.

Such a scene is played out every day up and down the city walls. It was originally extremely difficult for these mortals to build such huge tools and walls to deal with demon beasts, and it was often the case that someone accidentally died here. It's just that for the huge total number of mortals on the city walls, it is insignificant.

The young man in the Qi Refining Period asked a middle-aged mortal in his forties next to him, "How did the accident happen, tell me carefully." ”

The middle-aged man said: "Master Immortal, just now this giant tree suddenly cracked a thin crack, and then immediately about to fall down, a young man saw that another person under the giant tree had not yet discovered the matter, and hurriedly rushed over to save this person, but unfortunately at this time the giant tree suddenly broke into two, and when he avoided it, both of them died here." ”

"It's a pity, if he can't save someone, he will harm his own life, why should he save this person?" the young man in the Qi refining period sighed and asked.

"Why? This, this, this villain doesn't know. The middle-aged man was stunned and said hesitantly.

"Master Immortal, why do you need a reason to save people, you need a reason to kill people," an old man with only three or five gray beards said softly.

"You don't need a reason to save people, you need to kill people?" The young man in the Qi refining period was stunned when he heard this, and muttered and repeated the old man's words.

Zhao Di sighed lightly and said hoarsely: "You all disperse, and dispose of the bodies of these two people properly." ”

The high-ranking Immortal Master, although his tone was peaceful, there was an irresistible majesty, and everyone retreated one after another, and even a few people who were crying bitterly retreated a few feet after hearing this.

Zhao Di stretched out his right palm, and a cyan aura hit the giant tree, and then grabbed it in the air, slowly lifting the giant tree. Seeing this, the young man in the Qi refining period quickly moved out the two miserable corpses. Seeing this, several mortals around him wept bitterly.

Zhao Di grabbed the giant tree and connected it with the other half, and shot out a series of cyan spiritual light into the giant tree, and not long after, the fracture of the giant tree disappeared and became complete again.

"Solid technique" Zhao Di hit this spell on the giant tree, and said: "This wood will not be broken again, you bury these two properly, and go back to your posts."

"Thank you, Immortal Master"

"Yes, Senpai"

Zhao Di, who was about to leave here to continue his patrol, suddenly changed his expression and looked east.

His divine sense sensed that dozens of miles away, a group of monks of the Yudan period were rushing here
