The Black Book

"roar!!"

A scream that was not like a human voice echoed over the town. Mu Qiaolan was rolling and struggling on the ground in pain. The blood vessels on her face were squirming under her skin like a black snake, spreading to her whole body.

The muscles all over her body spasmed and swelled uncontrollably, and faint scarlet clouds steamed up, condensing into red smoke visible to the naked eye around Mu Qiaolan's body.

After a long time, the beast-like roar gradually subsided, and Mu Qiaolan slowly propped up her body, her scarlet eyes filled with the blood of someone she chose to devour.

"There are still some people who have slipped through the cracks in this town. Go and kill them."

"yes!"

With a hoarse roar, Mu Qiaolan used her hands and feet to rush out like a bloodthirsty beast and disappeared around the corner in the blink of an eye.

Immediately, screams of horror and despair sounded not far away, and then stopped abruptly.

"What kind of secret method are you using? Why does it sound like a method of divine impregnation?"

Bai Linglong, who stood behind Zhu Haomiao and witnessed the whole process, asked curiously.

Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao just pursed his lips and smiled without saying a word.

Seeing that he didn't want to say anything, Bai Linglong pursed her lips and changed the subject with great discernment.

"The town has basically been cleared, but some of the sharper enemies have escaped, and some smart ones have returned to reality and are hiding."

Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao frowned in distress.

This is the important reason why he must lead the army to sweep!

Once the descendants are out of the battle, they can avoid being hunted by going "offline", and then "online" to cause trouble after the threat has left.

If there are only one or two important arrivals, you can still "wait and wait".

But now there are tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of third brothers spread across most of Yongzhou's land. You can't possibly guard every one of them, right?

Who knows when they will be "online"!

"Sigh... our manpower is still too few, we are stretched thin..."

Hearing Zhu Haomiao's sigh, Bai Linglong shrugged helplessly.

"There is no way. The enemy cannot win on the frontal battlefield, and there will definitely be guerrilla warfare and security warfare later on. We can only rely on the local indigenous people in this regard. Our energy mainly needs to be concentrated on the frontal battlefield."

"Anyway, all the organized enemies have been eliminated, and those who are hiding are just rotten fish and smelly shrimps. After the new troops from each province arrive, we should be able to slowly eliminate these hidden dangers."

Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao nodded thoughtfully.

"You go take care of these things. I have a lot to do. I want to focus on the military."

Bai Linglong: "......"

While he was talking, a figure covered in blood slowly came from a distance. The thick blood soaked his whole body and dripped down, leaving a permeating red mark with every step he took.

The stench of internal organs mixed with the smell of blood hit his face. Looking at Mu Qiaolan who was getting closer, Zhu Haomiao frowned in disgust.

"Go take a shower, change your clothes, and don't get so dressed up in the future."

"…………"

Her sickly and twisted eyes were stunned for a moment. After a long time, Mu Qiaolan nodded and turned away obediently.

After she left, Zhu Haomiao continued to ask Bai Linglong beside him.

"How is the situation now?"

"Overall, it went smoothly. Jin Yiwei, who was born in Jianghu, is already good at special operations. Plus, with the descendants as eyes, the enemy still hasn't figured out what happened."

As he spoke, Bai Linglong pointed his fingers and unfolded a huge translucent screen in mid-air.

On the map displayed in real time, the red area representing the enemy shrank significantly. Hundreds of teams formed a line, harvesting life like a sickle, and compressed and drove the remaining enemies back.

"How's the battle damage?"

"It's okay. The enemy has lost at least tens of thousands of people so far, while we have only suffered more than ten casualties."

Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao's eyes moved, and he realized how sharp the martial arts masters were in such small-scale conflicts.

………………

On the other side of the battlefield, a shirtless Hongji, with his chest wrapped in snow-white gauze, hit the table hard.

"what is going on?"

The intense movements involved the wound, and the blood with light golden particles smeared on the white gauze, causing his eyebrows and feet to twitch in pain.

In the big tent, a group of subordinates looked at each other, and finally Chigu stood up bravely.

"Commander, I'm afraid reinforcements from [Dazhen] have arrived."

"I know it's [Dazhen]'s reinforcements, but who is leading the army? Which army is it? Don't you have any clue?"

"…………"

Chi Gu was bald, his face was red, his ears were red, and he was speechless.

Tens of thousands of people were lost in a few days. Although most of them were vassal cannon fodder, it was indeed a bit outrageous that they couldn't even figure out who the enemy was.

However, Chigumanbald also felt bitter in his heart and could not express it.

The enemy this time was completely different from before. They were more mobile than the centaurs, and their attacks were ruthless, leaving almost no one alive!

Most of the defeated soldiers who came back were those who had fled in the face of the wind, and they couldn't figure out why. All they knew was that the enemy seemed to be wearing gorgeous brocade robes and was frighteningly powerful. They didn't look like an ordinary army at all.

Seeing his subordinate's mumbling expression, Hongji took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart.

"I originally thought that by getting rid of Luo Ming, the northwest provinces of [Dazhen] would be able to take whatever they asked for, but I didn't expect that I only ate half of Yongzhou and my front teeth were smashed!"

"It seems that the enemy's reinforcements have already set off before they captured [Tianxiong Pass]!"

With a sinister laugh, Hongji spread his fingers, and then slowly clenched them.

"Gather the scattered troops and make fists. I want to see who is on the other side!"

When these words came out, Mopu, who was standing beside him, jumped.

In just a few days, he had looted several [real things] and was about to be financially free. If he withdraws his troops at this time, where will he find the wealth and glory in the second half of his life?

Thinking quickly, Mopu clasped his hands together and sighed with compassion.

"Marshal, I am willing to let my people launch an offensive at all costs to help you contain the enemy."

Hearing this, Hongjila looked at him in surprise and moved.

As expected of a devout believer of God, he is really loyal!

"But in this case, the casualties of the master's people will probably be very large, and the effect will not be too good. It is better to keep them useful and contribute to the construction of the Buddhist country in the future..."

It is too wasteful to use such a useful labor force as cannon fodder!

But ignoring Hongjila's painstaking efforts, Mopu whispered word by word with great determination.

"It doesn't matter. It's their honor to sacrifice for God's great cause. Even if one million or ten million people die, as long as we can play a little role, we will not hesitate!"

"…………"

Hearing Master Mopu's decisive words, Hongjila hesitated to speak.

Although I am very moved, are you a little too extreme?
