Chapter 104: Giant City
Boom!
The five magnificent and huge Xuanzhous slowly rose into the air, broke through the clouds, and flew in different directions.
On Xuanzhou No. 5.
Standing on the deck, Lu Yun saw the scenery flying by his feet, and felt a lot in his heart.
A year ago, he was a new disciple, taking a Xuanzhou from Yunshui County to Feiling Martial Academy.
Now, he is an examiner, taking a Xuanzhou to Dongyuan County, responsible for the recruitment and examination of new disciples.
Only one year has passed.
This is something he never thought of, and it is also something that others could not expect.
Xiao Chen is the same as him.
But Xiao Chen did not feel anything. He thought that if he completed this task well, he would get a lot of contribution points.
If he was lucky and recruited a few five-star or six-star roots, he could exchange for a few sword techniques to learn after returning to the academy, and gradually improve his swordsmanship.
...
Along the way, the Xuanzhou stopped nine times in succession. The other disciples got off the boat halfway, leaving only Xiao Chen and Lu Yun on the deck.
Their mission was the last battle.
Of course, there were more than just the two of them on the Xuanzhou.
Although the Xuanzhou was a mysterious weapon, it could not fly without someone controlling it.
Lu Yun learned from others that the one controlling Xuanzhou No. 5 was an elder in the Golden Body Realm.
As a large mysterious weapon, the Xuanzhou could not be controlled by ordinary warriors at all, and it required a large amount of spiritual crystals.
Standing on the edge of the Xuanzhou deck, Lu Yun saw a vague city appear in his sight, his eyes full of shock.
Even from a distance, he could feel the hugeness and majesty of the giant city.
As the Xuanzhou approached, he could feel the magnificence and majesty of the giant city, as if it was a peerless beast standing on this land.
Especially Lu Yun, who had reached the first level of the killing state, vaguely felt that the giant city had a heavy, vast, and terrifying killing aura.
"Is this the border city of Lingwu County, one of the long-term defense lines against monster invasions?" Standing on the slowly docked Xuanzhou, Lu Yun sighed in his heart.
Outside the city, the endless wilderness and mountains can be vaguely seen, full of violent and fierce atmosphere.
"It is rumored that Dongyuan County is the first county in Lingwu County. I thought it was just an exaggeration. Now it seems that Dongyuan County is not only the first county, but also the first city!"
Seeing such a peerless city standing on the land, even Xiao Chen, who has always been calm, was shocked at this time.
"It can be used as one of the defense lines against monster invasions. It can indeed be regarded as the first city in Lingwu County. And from this point of view, we may have a lot of gains on this trip." Lu Yun laughed.
As an area in contact with monsters, the people here must be tough and it is easy to have geniuses with good bones. In addition, only the Wu Academy here recruits disciples once every five years, and there are more geniuses accumulated over a long period of time.
"It's hard to say." Xiao Chen also understood Lu Yun's idea, but he didn't have high expectations, just hoped that the result would not be too bad.
"You two, are you here to help Dongyuan City resist the monsters?"
Suddenly, a general in armor and a team of soldiers appeared under the Xuanzhou.
The general was wearing black armor, with a fierce momentum and a strong aura. He was at least five times refined true qi. He looked at Lu Yun and the two on the Xuanzhou with sharp eyes.
"Resist the invasion of monsters?" Lu Yun and Xiao Chen were stunned at the same time, their faces full of confusion.
At this time, another young general suddenly appeared.
"Bu Fan, you only know how to use brute force all day long, and you don't use your brain."
Bu Fan, the fierce black-armored general before, saw the person coming and immediately clasped his fists, "Hello, Captain!"
"Okay, stand aside."
At this time, Lu Yun and Xiao Chen had jumped to the ground, and the Xuanzhou disappeared into the void.
After seeing Lu Yun and Xiao Chen up close, the captain was shocked for a moment, but he recovered quickly and greeted them with a smile.
"Are you two junior brothers from Feiling Martial Arts Academy?"
"I am Lu Yun, he is Xiao Chen, we are from Feiling Martial Arts Academy, responsible for the five-year recruitment assessment in Dongyuan County."
Lu Yun explained the purpose of their visit.
"Haha, my name is Wang Yuhao, I am also from Feiling Martial Arts Academy, I am your senior brother."
Wang Yuhao smiled and said, "Junior brothers Xiao and Lu are so young, but they can take on such an important task. I think their talent and strength are among the best in the martial arts academy, which is shocking."
"Thanks to Senior Brother Wang for the praise, we two are unworthy."
After Lu Yun said modestly, he changed the subject.
"But since we are both from Feiling Martial Academy, I hope that Senior Brother Wang can help us in the next assessment. We will be grateful."
"Of course, after all, I am also a member of the Martial Academy, but the two junior brothers came at the wrong time. The monster beasts are about to attack the city, and Dongyuan City is in a state of panic. The assessment may need to wait for some time and can only be carried out after the crisis is resolved."
Hearing this, Lu Yun and Xiao Chen frowned slightly at the same time.
Lu Yun glanced at Bu Fan standing aside, and his eyes swept around.
Teams of black-armored soldiers advanced in an orderly manner. The huge city in the distance was equipped with powerful heavy crossbows, and soldiers stood on the city walls, as if they were preparing for battle.
Seeing these scenes, Lu Yun knew that the other party was not lying, and even now he could stand in front of him because of the friendship of Feiling Martial Academy.
Lu Yun said: "Senior Brother Wang, how long will this beast tide last."
Wang Yuhao shook his head: "We can't be sure. It depends on the size and level of the beast tide."
"What do you mean by this?" A cold voice came from Xiao Chen's mouth.
After taking a look at Xiao Chen, Wang Yuhao felt an extremely sharp aura from his body. He couldn't help but look highly at Xiao Chen again and explained:
"The beast tides are divided into five levels, namely low-level, ordinary, terror, disaster and nightmare levels. The defense line of Dongyuan City is often attacked by low-level and ordinary beast tides. In the worst case, there was even a horror-level beast tide. ”
"Terror-level beast tide?" Lu Yun couldn't help but trembled, with a look of shock on his face, "Terror-level beast tide, isn't there a seventh-level monster coming?"
The seventh-level monster is definitely a terrifying level. As long as it appears, the city will be destroyed and people will be killed.
Wang Yuhao nodded and said with lingering fear: "It is true that a seventh-level monster has arrived. If there are not several strong men in the Golden Body Realm and Alchemy Realm Realm rushing to help, the defense line of Dongyuan Giant City will be completely lost."
"Seventh level monster!" Xiao Chen on the side whispered to himself, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
At the same time, his right hand holding the sword couldn't help but tremble, and the sword vibrated wildly, as if it was about to be unsheathed at any time.
Noticing Xiao Chen's strange behavior, Lu Yun murmured in his heart, "It's enough to kill decisively. Do you still hate evil as much as you hate it?"
During the last mission, Xiao Chen showed no mercy to the people of the White Lotus Sect. Even if they were very beautiful beauties, he would not blink an eye when he killed them.
At that time, he thought Xiao Chen had a grudge against the cult.
Looking at it now, it's not that simple.
This guy not only hates cults, but also has strong killing intent towards monsters.
Quickly gathering his mind, Lu Yun looked at Wang Yuhao and said, "How long do primary beast tides and ordinary beast tides usually last?"
"The primary beast tide will end in about three to five days, and the ordinary beast tide will take at least ten and a half days."
Lu Yun nodded slightly. In this case, they would be delayed for at most half a month.
Wang Yuhao said: "Well, I'm quite busy now. I'll let Colonel Bu Fanbu lead you to find a place to stay. I'll talk to you again when I have enough time."
Lu Yun nodded happily, "Okay, Senior Brother Wang will be busy first."
"These two are the geniuses of Feiling Martial Academy, please treat them well." Wang Yuhao turned his head and told Bu Fan who was standing aside, and left in a hurry.
"I will obey the command of the captain!"
Immediately, Bu Fan led Lu Yun and Xiao Chen into the city.
Along the way, Bu Fan was taciturn and had a cold face.
He was a dignified school captain who should have been busy with the important task of defending the city, but now he was sent by the captain to lead the way for two young boys, and he felt quite unwilling to do so.
But as a soldier, he did not dare to disobey his superiors' orders. No matter how dissatisfied he felt in his heart, he had to obey them.
After entering the city, the aura of fierce military strength became stronger.
There were no vendors or other people to be seen on the streets. They were all soldiers in armor and school captains, captains, etc. who kept shouting fiercely.
On the way, Bu Fan said calmly: "The restaurants and inns in the city are already crowded with people and refugees from other places. I can only have the two of you temporarily living in the military camp."
"We don't have so many requirements, just a roof over our heads."
Now that the situation in Dongyuan City is serious, Lu Yun will naturally not make any unreasonable demands.
Xiao Chen was not the kind of playboy from an aristocratic family, and he had no idea about where to live. He remained silent throughout the whole process, keeping his eyes on all directions at all times.
Due to the arrival of the beast tide, the military camp was temporarily moved from outside the city to the city.
Under the leadership of Bu Fan, they came to an open space in the west of the city, where the temporary military camp was located.
The densely packed tents occupy an area of almost ten miles in radius. From this, it can be seen that there are at least 100,000 troops stationed here.
In the military camp, there was a huge square, in which there were phalanxes of soldiers, who were seizing the time to rehearse, and the sound of killing shouts shook the sky.
Lu Yun glanced at them and saw that most of these soldiers were warriors who had entered the martial arts realm and above. During training, their eyes were sharp and they were surrounded by a faint evil aura.
As for the few soldiers in the corner of the square, although they have not yet become warriors, their blood and Qi are powerful and they are incomparably close to warriors.
Following Lu Yun's gaze, Bu Fan said: "Those are all new soldiers. As long as they survive this beast wave, they can become elite soldiers who can equal two or three."
Lu Yun did not object, but sighed, "Well, they are all good talents, but their qualifications are a little bit worse."
Recruits with slightly better qualifications will definitely not be allowed to go to the battlefield before they become warriors.
Although these recruits lack qualifications, they all have a certain quality in them, that is, their energy and spirit are filled with fearlessness and fearlessness.
In short, it means having the heart to die without hesitation.
Not being afraid of battle and not being afraid of death are essential qualities to become an elite soldier.
Unfortunately, even if they have the belief that they are not afraid of death, only three or four out of ten of them will survive in the end.
After all, the weakest monsters are equivalent to those who have entered the martial arts realm.
With such a disparity, it is considered lucky to be able to survive three out of ten.
These recruits all know this result.
But they still made this choice resolutely.
If the base and bones are low, then the battlefield can only be used as nourishment, and blood and fighting can be used to make up for it.
As long as you survive, you will have the opportunity to break the limit, and the world will be wider from now on.
