"Could it be that the dissipating fog tide is a precursor to the attack of these monsters?"

Thinking of this, the researcher who was already soaked unexpectedly broke out a few drops of cold sweat from his pores.

"Go, you have to report it quickly!"

He was seen rolling and crawling towards Liyue Port. At the same time, several magical beasts also discovered him and chased him all the way to Liyue Port.

The Qianyan Army who were responsible for guarding the gate of Liyue Port killed these monsters, but found that the back of the researcher who had escaped all the way back was covered with bloody scratches, and he was dying soon.

"Tell the people above... something bad has happened... a large number of monsters have escaped from the Maw."

After saying this, he fainted.And the several Qianyan Army around them had just worked together to kill a few monsters they had never seen before. It was difficult not to believe it even if they wanted to.

152. Endless European dogs to kill

"There is such a thing?!"

As soon as this incident came out, it immediately shocked the senior management of Liyue. Ningguang and others stopped arguing with Mubai and immediately rushed to the working hall of Yujingtai to convene various people to discuss countermeasures.

"Where are the monsters now?"

"Located in the southwest, heading from Dun Yuling to Tianheng Mountain, some have already arrived near Liyue Port. The Qianyan Army is working hard to clear away the surrounding monsters."

After receiving the news from the investigators, Ningguang's eyes turned and he immediately came up with a countermeasure:

"Erect city walls and camps in the southwest, and at the same time move nearby residents inward, mobilize all available forces, and enter Liyue Port into a first-level combat readiness state."

Ever since the Demon God was defeated that time, Ningguang, Keqing and others had made a complete set of emergency plans, so the deployment was very rapid. It didn't take long for an earthen wall to be built at the southwest gate. A wooden thorn used to counter the charge of enemies or monsters.

The crossbowmen stood on the city wall and kept shooting at the invading monsters. At the same time, several heavy but powerful crossbows were also dragged to the front line. A single crossbow can shoot through more than a dozen small monsters.

"The situation is not good..."

After the alert state lasted for two days, economic losses aside, the defense line was indeed unsustainable.

No, the attack momentum of these monsters was not that fierce, and there was no tragic battle like the ancient siege wars.

But there are so many of them that it’s jaw-dropping.

The soldiers attacking the city will always be killed, but the monsters in front of them are endless.

If this continues, within a few days, the arrows will be exhausted before the city gate is breached.

·

"Why are there so many monsters? How many have we killed in the past few days? Are there already tens of thousands?"

Ning Guang, who was standing on the front line supervising the battle, had a sad look on his face.

It stands to reason that it would be more dangerous for a person of her status to appear on the front line of the city defense, but the attack momentum of these monsters is not violent, and the attack method is single and reckless, so Ningguang's safety is still guaranteed.

At the same time, the soldiers guarding the city had become numb in the endless killings, and they urgently needed a spiritual leader to lead and encourage them.

"After the monster is killed, the body will disappear quickly and turn into a plume of black smoke. I guess it has something to do with this."

Keqing is also on the front line. Her face looks a little haggard, but this does not prevent her from working. Not long ago, Keqing asked the Guhua Sect where she once studied for help, asking them to send disciples to help.

And just as she said, after these numerous monsters were killed, they did not leave behind rotten bones, but a black spirit rushed into the sky, and then disappeared from people's sight.

"I'm going to find professionals who may know something about this."

Ningguang then invited Hutao from the Rebirth Hall, Baizhu and Qiqi from Bubulu, and even Zhongli (male incarnation) to the front line.

Several people present either have research on life and death, or on occult arts, and there are even zombies themselves, or they are well-known erudite people in Liyue Port.

"Have you ever heard of a soul returning?"

After hearing Ningguang and Keqing's descriptions and experiencing them on site, Hutao was the first to put forward his own opinion.

"Leave a mark on a creature and recall its soul when it is about to die for secondary use."

"Are you saying that these invading monsters are all reused?"

"I can't guarantee it. After all, it's a legend I heard. It's just an opinion."

Walnut said playfully.

"But, even if the black essence is the soul, how come the body disappears together? And even if the soul can be used twice, where can we find so many bodies?"

Keqing was confused, but Zhongli explained:

"Maybe it's because this so-called flesh body is not a real flesh body, but a demon doll with some flesh and blood added to it."

"Flesh and blood... golem?"

Ning Guang reacted immediately after detecting the keyword. She also learned this trick from Mu Bai's book.

At the same time, Zhongli continued:

"The magic spells Hall Master Hu just mentioned are not lies. Thousands of years ago, there were demon gods who could control the dead. However, those evil spirits were defeated by the Rock King. Their bodies were destroyed and disappeared into the dust."

Bai Shu took Zhongli's words and analyzed them according to what he knew:

"Indeed, the power of gods and demons is difficult to predict using mortal logic. Qiqi's awakening in amber must have been caused by the intervention of gods. It is not difficult to return from the dead."

"It's just that Qiqi doesn't remember anything."

The little zombie frowned and tilted his head with a worried look on his face, looking cute and pitiful, while Hu Tao sneaked behind Qiqi, wanting to take her into his arms and give her a good rub.

"Hey! My Qiqi is really... Wow!"

But before Hu Tao could hug Qiqi from behind, he jumped up and hit his chin with his head.

Qiqi was already on guard!After being attacked many times, she also reflexively remembered how to counter Walnut.

"it hurts!"

Hu Tao, who was rolling on the ground because she bit her tongue, suddenly lost her composure, and no one wanted to look at her.

Bai Shu said: "No matter what, the possibility of someone behind the scenes is very high. If you continue to defend like this, it will only waste money and food. It is better to go out and find out who is behind the scenes."

"We really can't sit still and wait for death. Even if we can barely maintain supplies because we are backed by shipping routes, if we continue like this, our hearts will disappear."

Keqing also agreed with the idea of ​​taking the initiative.

"Qiqi can feel it."

The little zombie lowered his head and said sadly:

"Everyone in the city has been very gloomy recently, and the gloomy energy here is particularly serious. Even though everyone is still alive, they are exuding the energy of death."

"Well!"

Originally, Keqing and Ningguang would only use numbness and exhaustion to describe people's current mentality, but they did not expect that Qiqi would use more terrifying words.

What a "death spirit", the implication is that everyone has become a bit like a zombie.

"It seems we can't delay it any longer."

In fact, the reason why the situation is so serious is not just a matter of mentality. Those monsters crawling out of the abyss are themselves quite polluted.

It is only because everyone has received Mu Bai's "vaccine" that no disease has appeared, but if they are corroded by the virus for a long time, the body will eventually collapse.

"Pass my order to all Qianyan troops to gather in the city and prepare for war. We are going to fight out."

"Dried chicken and fruit, if you just follow the strange flow of people through the place, you can get enough black wine."

Hutao, whose tongue was bitten by himself, struggled to put forward his point of view.

Everyone can almost hear what she means: "In my opinion, as long as you follow the direction where the monsters are coming, you can find the mastermind behind it."

The sixth update failed, I can't stay up late, sorry.

153. Rocket Army·Enter the Siege

"For such a large group of monsters, these soldiers alone may not be enough."

After the army was assembled, Ningguang felt for the first time in his life that the Qianyan Army in Liyue was too small.

Because not long ago she had seen those small and medium-sized monsters that were like a torrent.

"We also have to fight in person."

Keqing held the sword at her waist.

It's not that the Pure Qianyan Army is incompetent, but the casualties would be too heavy, and Liyue's military might never recover. Ningguang and Keqing must find ways to reduce battle losses.

Although it is a bit strange for high-level officials to go to the battlefield, they are all holders of the Eye of God, and their combat power is far superior to that of the Qianyan Army. It is a waste to only manage things in the background.

"In this way, I will prepare a strong ointment for everyone. It has the effect of dispelling monsters. Even if it can only dispel a small part, it will be helpful for you to go straight to Huanglong."

Baizhu used his professional expertise, while Hutao next to him felt the pressure. She almost subconsciously wanted to blurt out:

"I'll prepare the coffin and funeral services for you." Fortunately, he swallowed his words in the end.

No matter how naughty she is, she knows she can't say such things.

"Master Hu?"

"I have something to deal with." Hutao shied away.

Today she actually wanted to find Mu Bai.

"I have confirmed Hall Master Hu's schedule today. He will be free all day."

Zhongli exposed her ruthlessly.

Although she has relieved herself of the burden of guarding Liyue, Zhongli doesn't mind asking others to guard her.

"Hey! Why are your elbows turned out? I've been raising you for so long in vain!"

"Hall Master Hu, if you follow us to defeat the enemy, all casualties in this battle will be handed over to the Palace of Life and Death, and the funeral expenses will not be lost."

As soon as Ningguang said this, Keqing and the others were a little surprised. After all, talking about dead people before going out was so unlucky that even Hutao knew how to restrain himself.

But then I thought about it, and realized that this was in line with Ningguang's character of not taking an unusual path before achieving his goals when doing business, and he felt relieved.

"It's… okay."

Hu Tao's combat prowess has been witnessed by Ning Guang and Ke Qing in front of Zhan Gui. She is considered a top-notch powerhouse. With her joining, they will be a little more sure of things.

"I know, I know, I'll just go with you."

After Hutao was captured, Zhongli recommended:

"By the way, there is a strange man named Lin Mubai in the city. Maybe you can find him..."

"Please stop talking, Mr. Zhongli."

Ningguang and Keqing rejected Zhongli's proposal at the same time.

As early as the demon invasion, they had been rescued by Mu Bai and had already made up their minds not to cause trouble to Mu Bai endlessly.

"Liyue is our Liyue, we should protect it and we can't always bother outsiders."

"Now that the emperor has ascended, if we still can't learn to strengthen ourselves, wouldn't it mean that we have made no progress?"

"yes……"

Seeing the strength and momentum of the two of them, Zhongli, the retired King of Rock, smiled happily.

·

Another day passed after that, the logistics supplies of food and grass were complete, the formation drills were also run-in, and with the morning sun, the army was ready.

"The garrison troops should be on alert. Except for the southwest gate, the defense in other areas should not be relaxed."

Before leaving, Ningguang repeatedly told the captain of the garrison not to slack off on any details, because almost all of Liyue's main combat force would be out this time.

Gan Yu, as the immortal beast guarding Liyue, also received orders to go out with Keqing and the others. Even Qiqi went to the battlefield, his small figure almost invisible among the crowd.

In addition, Beidou also joined in. Although he and Ningguang sank the boat of friendship some time ago, in this matter, as long as Ningguang says something, Beidou will take the next step even if it means mountains of swords and seas of fire. Pride.

"Haha! Sure enough, this outfit is the most comfortable!"

Wearing short robes and long boots, and holding a giant sword, Beidou changed his tiptoeing style from the previous two days and showed off his elder sister style again.

"The whole army is ready! March in formation!"
