Chapter 83 Dawn, the beginning of the imperial war
At one o'clock in the morning, the light in the northern city of the ancient capital was as bright as eight or nine o'clock in the night.
The assembly horn of the outer city wall and the resounding whistle made the entire northern city wake up at midnight.
The residents soon learned about the situation tonight from the figures of mages that kept flashing in the sky and the roars coming from time to time from outside the city.
Beicheng District encountered several invasions of monarch-level undead spirits, and the scene was like this, looking like a war was about to begin.
In this case, in principle, the ancient capital city recommends residents close to the city wall to take temporary shelter towards the inner city in an orderly manner, just in case.
The same is true at this time. The mages responsible for urban management in the City Defense Forces began to maintain order at various transportation hubs in the North City District.
Faced with this kind of scene that is not an exercise, most people will go to an obviously safer inner city for their lives.
Zhu Meng, who was flying in the air against the crowd, stopped his figure near the city gate at the main road in the North City District.
The meeting he had urgently contacted the Forbidden City just now was not very smooth, and he had a fierce argument with some colleagues.
Zhu Meng is accustomed to promoting his own opinions in a tough manner. Some people say that he is too strong in combat, and some people always comment on him being tough, arrogant and unreasonable.
Whether it is praise or sarcasm, whether it is belittlement or hostility, Zhu Meng never cares about it.
When a person reaches forty, Zhu Meng has already had his own anchor point in his life, can accurately know what he really wants to do, and take action.
Over the years, he has always appeared on the front line of dangerous mountains and rivers in the motherland, facing the brutal demons head-on and guarding the people of China behind him. If he only relies on the passion that needs to be praised, he will not be able to persevere.
But every time I "talk against the scholars", I will eventually feel a little tired.
Zhu Meng swept the area one kilometer ahead, and there were more and more flying mages on the airspace of the North City Gate. The military commander Lu Xu was at the most conspicuous top, guiding the direction for the mages who came spontaneously to help from the city.
The demons outside the city seemed to be ready to go. Zhu Meng originally wanted to go directly to the north city gate, but his eyes glanced at a convenience store that was still opening at his feet.
He looked into the distance again. He had a premonition that this battle would not go smoothly. He was even prepared to sleep here forever, if he really needed to face the entire undead empire.
Since that's the case, Zhu Meng no longer hesitated, fell down, opened the door and walked into this not-so-small convenience store.
Against the backdrop of people around him evacuating Beicheng, the owner of the convenience store looked very calm when lying on the rocking chair.
Zhu Mengye only glanced at the boss, walked into the convenience store, picked up a large cup of pure flavored Baxi ice cream in the cold snow area, and then walked to the store to check out.
When he was about to reach the door of the store, a figure also walked out of the passage next to him and walked in front of him.
"Cola, three pieces."
The boss's voice sounded, and he quoted the items of the person in front of him first, and Zhu Meng, who was holding the ice cream, faced Du Xiao, who was holding the Coke, and he was very concerned for a long time.
Finally, Du Xiao raised his eyebrows and slapped Coke towards the cashier and said, "Together? Just think I've invited you."
...
After leaving the convenience store, the two of them tacitly walked to a corner with relatively few people. Now they were only one kilometer away from the city gate, and it took only half a minute to get over them at their speed.
Du Xiao unscrew the lid, and a crisp sound of bubbles appeared in the iced Coke. He raised his head and whipped a few times before asking, "So, is your smooth going?"
Zhu Meng shook his head with the ice cream in his mouth, swallowed, and continued: "It's not going well. Overall, many people think I'm exaggerating, especially at this time, it's only a few hours before Tianming, and only one monarch actually showed up."
"Yes, as soon as the sky is dawn, the undead retracts into the soil, and the evil abyss may continue to disappear. Chu Jia's old stubborn reason is this. Anyway, you don't have to hurry up on what has not happened. If you happen, you can see if you can avoid it. If you really can't, then you can see how to deal with it. In the end, you can just run away."
"Haha, King Xiao Lie will not treat me as an outsider anymore. It seems that he has said a lot of words to the elder in the past."
"Just call me Du Xiao. I just called an old friend of the same generation as me. Others think that you are not easy to get along with, but he has a high opinion of you."
"Is the Leng Hunting King? I'm honored to be able to fight with him again. The Palace Guardians of the Forbidden City came to the West. He had a study experience in ancient times. I guess it was for this reason that I supported me once."
"Come here to guard the west? Isn't it going well? Haha, old Zhu, I didn't see that you are pretty pretending. Do you have to come together with your chief and second seat to be successful?"
"You have never dealt with Tianlu. If it was him, he would definitely awaken the entire undead empire. If no one can withstand those undead monarchs at the top of the super level, we can't last long, let alone expect dawn."
"Does Tianlu? I have a very high evaluation. I have heard of him. No matter what, I still hope your guess is wrong."
Du Xiao threw the empty Coke bottle into the trash can across a distance. Looking at Zhu Meng, he smiled and stretched out his fist and continued: "Also, it's better to meet than to be famous. I'm very happy to fight side by side with you."
Zhu Meng had already thrown away the garbage. When he walked to Du Xiao, he also stretched out his fist and touched Du Xiao, "I'm the same."
...
When Zhu Meng and Du Xiao returned to the city tower, Feijiao had already returned to the temporary command room in advance, and there were two more people in the command room.
One is Wang Qi, the chief guard of the Imperial Guard, who is also a strong man in the second-level superfield.
The other is Lu Huan, the chief guard.
At this time, Lu Huan stood in front of the sand table in the suburbs of Beicheng, which was adjusted according to the latest information, without hesitation, but gave all super-level mages, staff, and intelligence officers a great sense of security.
Lu Huan here means that even when facing the attack of the Supreme Monarch, the North City Gate will not be so vulnerable. This confidence in dealing with extreme situations will greatly enhance everyone's fighting will.
At this time, except for Lu Xu who was floating in the sky, there were already five super-level mages gathered in the command room.
Because there were some unusual movements in the other three city gates, Han Ji, who was in the center of the Bell Tower Magic Association, spread all the slightly weaker super-level mages to the other three city gates. The north city gate facing the Sha Yuan was basically the second-level super-level mages.
When Zhu Meng and Du Xiao were about to arrive in the command room of the reinforcements report, a clear smile appeared on everyone's face.
Only when a mage who is elsewhere hears that Sha Yuan is thirty kilometers away from the ancient capital can he stay out of the matter and say some calm and calm nonsense.
When people stand in this temporary command post and look out of the city, the defensive circles of the mage groups and the layers of undead like oceans in the distance under the searchlights will use a way to directly hit the mind, make the body hot, the mind swell, and the soul tremble sometimes, making it tremble sometimes, making it possible to know that a terrible war is coming.
In this war, no matter how cautious it is, it is not an exaggeration.
Time has come two o'clock, and the undead monarch surrounded by the undead tribe has arrived ten kilometers away from the city.
He temporarily acted as the chief aide of the temporary military advisor Imperial Guard, calculating the time and distance, and then confirmed it again with other staff groups, and spoke to Chief Lu Huan and the super-level mage present:
"Everyone, the Ghost King on the opposite side has reached a position that is most suitable for killing. Although it is still among the undead at this time, we can no longer let it continue."
The Chief of the Imperial Guard had already learned about a certain situation through Feijiao, so he and Zhu Mengduxiao looked at each other and said, "Everyone, how about we go to the depths of the undead to kill him?"
Zhu Meng, Du Xiao, and Feijiao nodded. Although the Ghost King was not very strong, he was surrounded by countless undead spirits.
If the super-level mage does not gather a powerful force, the undead who will fall into the sea of undead will be consumed by endless murder.
The four super-level mages then completed the reunion with Lu Xu above the city gate.
Lu Xu had already organized a vanguard team composed of members of various forces. At this time, he completed the convergence and then made a splash and cut into the ocean of the undead like a sharp knife.
...
A war may lead to the demise of countless bodies, and even prove the objective laws of the origin of the world. The operation of the world will not be affected by the joys and sorrows of human beings. The war between human beings and the dead is just a periodic self-regulation for the origin of the world. Whether it is life or death, it is just a natural choice.
However, when humans have civilization, many spirits and beliefs that transcend the body are born between life and death. These inscriptions that can be engraved on history forever are the torch of human heritage.
The military recorder sitting on the side of the temporary command room recorded everything that happened on the North City Gate from the early morning from an objective perspective.
"At two o'clock in the morning, the super-level mage Wang Qi, Lu Xu, Feijiao, Zhu Meng, Du Xiao led the vanguard into the undead tribe, and wanted to kill the King of Ghost Bo."
"At 3:30 in the morning, the Undead Tribe broke through the third defense line, leaving only three kilometers away from the North City Wall. The ground from the second defense line to the Shayuan was covered with the undead. The chief guard Lu Huan contacted the Bell Tower Magic Association for a larger range of help."
"At four o'clock in the morning, the mage group from the Imperial Palace arrived at the North City Gate and quickly joined the battle, eased the battle situation where the second defense line was about to collapse."
"At 4:30 in the morning, the vanguard team led by five super-level mages successfully killed the Ghost King and returned to the North City Gate. The super-level mages did not lose their troops, but the vanguard team died more than half."
"At five o'clock in the morning, it started to rain in the sky, and the offensive of the undead tribe was still rapid. The second defense line was broken, and only 1.5 kilometers away from the city gate, the super-level mage was forced to take turns to enter the battlefield to sweep away the low-level undead."
"At six o'clock in the morning, the sky was light, and the undead had a strange trend and did not return to the soil. The chief of the imperial guard Lu Huanla sounded the purple warning of the whole city, and all the people in the four cities began to migrate to the inner city."
"At 6:30 in the morning, the sky was completely bright. It was confirmed that the undead still maintained its vitality during the day due to some reason. Then, a roar that penetrated the entire world came from the evil abyss. The huge mountain corpse appeared in the torrent of the undead. At the same time, a overlord-level undead skeleton appeared in the sky."
