Chapter 208 Zongto Shows Off His Power! Old Acquaintances in the Cannon Fodder Camp

…

This meeting lasted for a long time.

Although [Operation Spring Thunder] is exciting, it still requires the efforts of many people to succeed. There are too many issues involved, and if any detail goes wrong, the whole game may be lost.

Therefore, at this meeting, Wang Liyao not only unified everyone's thinking, but also finalized the implementation policy of [Operation Spring Thunder], as well as the subsequent first step plan and second step plan...

The specific content of the meeting involves all aspects, details, and is extremely complicated.

The estimated completion time of the entire operation is even as long as a hundred years.

It was only then that many people, including Emperor Longchang, realized from the various details announced by Wang Liyao that the Wang family and the Holy Land had actually made so many preparations in advance for this plan.

If you want to develop the Extraterrestrial Demon Realm, you need to overcome not just one, but countless difficulties.

Obviously, Wang Shouzhe had been planning this plan for a long time, and had been making various preparations secretly. It was only now that the time had come, and he finally brought this plan to the forefront.

In the process, they even participated in some things personally, but no one guessed Wang Shouzhe's true intention.

You must know that among the people participating in the meeting, many veteran generals are stationed outside the territory all year round, such as some princes in their prime and some military generals in their prime. Except for taking turns and being injured, they will go back to work for repairs. He spent most of his time stationed on foreign battlefields.

These people are more familiar with Wang Liyao than the Wang family, and their understanding of the Wang family is limited to various rumors.

Some of them may have noticed the rapid changes in Da Qian Ru, but they may not know the specific reasons.

Therefore, many of them were extremely puzzled by the fact that Emperor Longchang respected the Wang family so much, protected the Wang family so much, and even cared for the younger Wang family more than the royal family.

But as the meeting progressed, they gradually understood.

At the same time, they were also deeply aware of the terror of the person who planned this [Operation Spring Thunder].

If they were enemies with such people, they might not even be able to figure out how they got into trouble. Simply, such a terrifying person belongs to the human camp.

Their scalps were numb, they were shocked, but they were also excited. They felt that the skin all over their bodies was trembling slightly, as if they were cheering for everything that was about to come.

All of them knew that the pattern of the battlefield outside the territory would enter a new chapter starting from today.

And they will be the starters and forerunners of all this.

However, although everyone will feel overwhelmed when they think back to today's meeting afterwards, at this moment, when the meeting is going on, everyone's expressions are extremely focused, and they are even afraid that they have missed something. Character.

The specific content of the meeting will not be described here.

The people outside only knew that the meeting did not end until the blood moon moved from one end of the sky to the other. When the meeting ended, everyone's expressions were vaguely excited.

After they all returned, a series of major actions began in the Daqian defense zone in the next few days.

…

The west side of the main base.

This is the most remote corner of the base. The environment is dark and humid, and the living environment is particularly harsh. As soon as people get closer, they can smell a strong musty smell, mixed with various odors, which is completely unbearable.

Here is the location of the [Cannon Fodder Battalion].

As a terrifying existence within Dagang that can stop children crying at night, the members of the cannon fodder camp come from very complex sources. There are children of aristocratic families who have violated serious laws, as well as rogue cultivators who have committed many evil deeds, wanted criminals who have been arrested and brought to justice, and Deserters during the war and officers and soldiers who seriously violated military orders, etc.

When you enter a cannon fodder camp, what you have to face is often more terrifying than death.

And the number of people who can finally wash away their sins and escape from the cannon fodder camp alive is often less than one in a hundred.

Therefore, after staying in a cannon fodder camp for a long time, people often become mechanical and numb, just like a walking corpse.

Only those who are newly assigned will still have some vitality in them. Some of them would huddle in the corner of the stinking barracks, looking terrified, while others would lie down in front of the barracks fence and shout: "Let me out, I was wrongly accused." It seemed as if that was all they needed. If you do it, you may be able to turn over.

After shouting too much, the cannon fodder camp [supervisor] became impatient, so they would pull the person out and beat them randomly with a barbed whip, and then imprison them in a small dark room for a while. People will be honest after they come back.

On this day, the prisoners in the cannon fodder camp sat in the corner as usual, leaning against the wall in silence.

Suddenly.

"Boom! Boom!"

A rough knocking sound suddenly sounded.

The supervisory commander led a group of supervisors and used black iron chains to knock on the thick iron pillar fence of the barracks. He shouted impatiently: "First Battalion, Second Battalion, and Third Battalion, pay attention. Get up. You are here to survive."

This familiar "bang" sound was like a reminder that these criminal cannon fodders woke up instantly.

The old men in the cannon fodder camp stood up numbly and mechanically, and slowly gathered at the door of the barracks. The newly assigned criminals had a sense of fear of impending disaster, and they hesitated and feared to go out.

The work in the cannon fodder battalion was never a good one. It was either dirty and smelly work that the regular army would not want to do, and it was easy to die, or it was to go out with the army as cannon fodder or as a back-up.

In short, every time there is a chance of survival, someone will die. If you encounter a terrible mission, 30% or even half of it is possible to die afterwards!

However, the rules in the cannon fodder camp are strict. Once you resist or violate military orders, the punishment will be extremely severe. The supervisory commander has many ways to torture you.

Therefore, even if they know that they may die if they go out, few people dare to resist.

Even though the newcomers were frightened, they did not dare to resist. In the end, they could only follow the large army obediently.

If you resist, your life will be worse than death, but if you go out, you can still come back alive. If you make a great contribution, you can even get a reduced sentence, and maybe you can come back alive. Everyone knows how to choose.

Under the escort of chains and supervisory commanders, three cannon fodder battalions and more than a thousand people finally arrived at the east side outside the city wall of the main base.

To the east is a small plain with a radius of several hundred miles, and several small natural lakes. Further to the east is the remnant of the Evil Dragon Mountain Range. Once upon a time, Daqian's ancestors also tried to convert this small plain with a good geographical location into farmland, which could solve part of the military food problem.

It's a pity that generations of ancestors have continued to work hard, but they have continued to suffer failures, so that today, few people try anymore.

I heard that the Immortal Dynasty already has the technology to improve the land in the Demon Realm, but the cost per acre is extremely staggering, and the subsequent annual maintenance costs are also extremely high. The cost price of the output per acre is a lot higher than the same crops in the Immortal Dynasty. Thousand times.

This means that the Immortal Dynasty can only improve a small part of the Demon Realm land as a test field, and it is impossible to improve it in large quantities and achieve self-sufficiency.

at this time.

There are already many people and "puppets" busy on the edge of this small plain.

They were some weird-looking, huge, and extremely clumsy chain-type walking "puppets". They drive the violently rotating circular saws for land reclamation. Although they move slowly, wherever they pass, trees, weeds, and vines are all broken by their roots, and all kinds of sap containing evil spirits fly everywhere.

The weeds in the demon world are very vigorous, and many of them are aggressive. Some plants even have evil spirits and poisons in their bodies for passive defense. A simple matter like mowing the grass is very dangerous for humans.

In addition, there are often countless small and micro monsters or various strange insects living in the dense weeds, many of which are extremely deadly and dangerous things.

If manpower is used to open up wasteland, most people will probably die.

Fortunately, the pioneers on the road ahead are the puppets produced by Wang's Weapon Refining Directorate.

They are all controlled by a professional puppet master not far away using spiritual thoughts. There are even some large-scale land reclamation puppets with cockpits inside, and the puppet master can stay in the puppet cockpit to control the puppet.

Each puppet master is certified by the Wang Professional Union. They are skilled in operation and can troubleshoot many puppet faults. Some of them are even capable of modifying puppets according to special needs.

Although this industry has only been around for a few decades, being a puppet master is already one of the most popular professions in Daqian.

Due to the constant reforms in Daqian in recent years and the frequent launch of large projects, the wasteland puppet masters basically have no worries about job opportunities and their income is very high. And they did open up a lot of wilderness for Wang and Daqian, which can be said to have outstanding achievements.

But now, their work scene has changed from Daqian to the demonic world outside the territory.

Fortunately, the official threshold for pioneering puppet masters is the Lingtai realm. Their ability to adapt to and withstand demonic evil in the outer demon world is far superior to that of Qi Refining realm monks. There is no need to rotate back and forth due to physical and pressure like the Qi Refining realm army.

Of course, their willingness to come to open up wasteland outside the territory was also because of Wang's call and recruitment. Otherwise, unless they are forced to recruit, no matter how much money they are given, they will not dare to open up wasteland outside the territory.

Under the efficient work of the land reclamation puppet, patches of weeds were cut off. When encountering some trees, there were also specialized tree saw puppets to saw them off, haul them, and then simply process them into logs and pile them up.

These trees have grown wild for countless years. The quality of many of them is actually quite good. Some of the wood is as dense as gold and iron. The only flaw is that the tree body contains a lot of evil spirit. If it is made into furniture , houses will continue to release evil spirits.

Unless you are a demon cultivator who specializes in demonic cultivation techniques, no one will like this thing.

Tree roots are also troublesome. Fortunately, there are also specialized large puppets to dig out tree roots.

The enthusiastic appearance of this group made the members of the cannon fodder battalion look slightly sideways and confused.

This time, they weren’t dragged into the army to serve as cannon fodder? What is this for?

"Old Ancestor." In the cannon fodder battalion, a man with a withered face and disheveled beard and hair showed a look of surprise on his face, and said feebly, "What are these people doing? Do they want to restart the land improvement plan in the demon world again? ?”

"It seems so." Beside him, an old man with a gray beard, a stooped waist, and a dirty body looked at the situation in the distance, with a look that seemed dissatisfied, "Di Zi'an is playing the piano randomly, Lian Xianchao He still dares to touch things that he can't do anything about."

The two of them were discussing in low voices, but the supervisor on the side was a monk in the Purple Mansion Realm. He had sharp ears and eyes. How could their words be hidden from his ears?

The supervisor's expression changed, and with a flick of his wrist, he immediately struck down his face with the barbed whip, scolding: "Who told you to speak?! You are so brave!"

"Bah bang bang!"

A series of crisp slapping sounds sounded. The two of them were beaten until they huddled on the ground, groaning, but they didn't dare to resist at all.

In other words, they had resisted before, but they only received more violent and cruel lessons. More than a hundred years have passed, and the cannon fodder battalion has long since smoothed all their edges and corners.

Yes, these two people were none other than Prince Kang and Prince Dexin.

There were many people who were thrown into the cannon fodder camp with them, but only a few of them are still alive today.

Even if they are still alive, they have long been forgotten by the world. Let me ask, who in today's Daqian can still remember the high-spirited Prince Kang back then? Who can still think of the "high and powerful" Prince Dexin?

Everyone in the cannon fodder camp was silent, and no one came forward to help them.

The supervisory commander shouted: "Cannon Fodder Battalion One, Two, and Three Battalions obey the order. You will work with the land reclamation puppets, do various auxiliary tasks and protect them. Anyone who dares to harm the land reclamation puppet master will take your life." .”

Following the order, everyone in the cannon fodder camp immediately began to work mechanically and numbly.

The land reclamation puppet works very hard, so it is quite rough. Except for the relatively thick trees, the remaining cut grass and magic plants fell on the ground casually.

Everyone from the cannon fodder camp followed behind the puppet, cleaning up the scattered branches and leaves, picking out the obvious large rocks on the ground, moving them away, and assisting the puppet in doing some trivial tasks.

This job is dirty and painful, and it is easy to be injured by poisonous insects and poisonous insects, but in the end it is much easier than being cannon fodder on the battlefield.

The grass was cut, the trees were sawed, the rocks were crushed, and the rocks were removed. After the grass was dried, a huge fire was started. After the wildfires ignited the prairie fire, the surface insects, ants, snakes and rats were basically cleared away.

Then, the next piece of land was opened up again and again.

In the previous piece of land, the plowing team also entered the field and began to plow the land with plowing puppets. Pieces of land were plowed, revealing the dark soil.

While the land reclamation team was in full swing, Wang Liyue and the soil improvement team she led also arrived at the land reclamation area.

The composition of this team is very complex. Among them, there are relevant experts from the Wang family, as well as a special consultant from the Immortal Dynasty, the great master of Lingzhi "Lan Xin Wang".

Of course, there is one extremely special person among them, and that is the little brother Wang Zongteng who has not even finished his enlightenment studies.

The ultimate goal of this time's [Operation Spring Thunder] is to capture the three Demon King's Castles and their corresponding vast territories, transforming them into livable places for humans.

Before that, Daqian's current defense zone will be used as a pilot to start the first phase of tentative development.

What they are doing now is the first step in tentative development - opening up wasteland and farming.

Seeing the heated scene in front of her, Wang Liyue was filled with pride.

After preparing for so long, it was finally time to put everything into practice.

When she thought that this place would become a vast fertile land in the future, continuously providing a large amount of food and other important economic crops for the human race, her heart beat a little faster involuntarily.

This is probably the most fulfilling moment for all scientific researchers in the world.

The technology born in my own hands is finally about to come to fruition, and may even be able to leverage the future and become a key part of changing the world. This sense of accomplishment cannot be replaced by anything else.

However, emotion is emotion, excitement is excitement, and work cannot be delayed.

Wang Liyue squatted down, grabbed a handful of soil and looked at it carefully for a moment, then nodded with satisfaction: "Sure enough, as I predicted in advance, the humus content in these soils is very rich, loose and breathable, and the soil is fertile, very suitable for Large-scale reclamation.”

"The soil is good soil, but what are you going to do with the evil spirit in the soil?" King Lanxin came over upon seeing this and asked with concern.

She also saw the condition of the soil, but she was more concerned about the evil spirit in the soil than whether it was fertile or not.

The black demonic energy that is constantly escaping from the soil is like a curse, cutting off the possibility of most human plants surviving in this soil.

Even if the difficulty of demonic energy is overcome, the insects in the soil that are different from those in the human world, as well as the microbial communities invisible to the naked eye, still stand like giant tigers in the road, hindering the growth of plants in the human world.

Immortal Dynasty has actually been trying to find ways to overcome these difficulties. After so many years, it cannot be said that there are no results, but the price is too high, and the cost is too high, and there is no value in large-scale promotion.

This is actually a very common situation in scientific research. A technology that can be implemented in a laboratory and that can be promoted on a large scale are completely different concepts.

For this reason, King Lanxin was also very curious about how the Wang family planned to deal with one of the difficulties in improving the Demonic Land - the evil spirit.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, the countermeasures have been prepared." Wang Liyue smiled confidently.

As early as a few years ago, Wang Shouzhe had entrusted the Holy Land to help dig out a lot of demon world soil and native plant samples. Therefore, the Wang Research Institute had already conducted research on demon world soil.

In fact, it was precisely because we had successfully overcome many difficulties and had the prerequisites for large-scale transformation and development of the Demon Realm that the Spring Thunder Operation was launched.

With that said, Wang Liyue waved to Wang Zongteng: "Zongteng. First try to absorb these evil spirits and test the efficiency."

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee"

Wang Zongteng immediately ran over on his little vine legs.

After being raised by the Wang family for several years, although Wang Zongteng's little brother's grades are still poor, he has grown a lot taller, especially the main vine, which is much stronger. Even though Wang Shouzhe was afraid that he would grow too fast and didn't use the profound energy of life to encourage him to grow, his strength had already reached the fifth level.

There was no way around it. As a vine whose main ability was to devour and transform, he had swallowed a lot of spirit stones over the years, and his own potential was high, so his upgrade speed would naturally not be much slower.

Standing at the position designated by Wang Liyue, Wang Zongteng plunged his roots into the reclaimed land, and the slender roots quickly spread deep underground.

Soon, the demonic energy hidden deep in the soil was absorbed by the capillary roots, gathered continuously along the roots, and was transported into the vine body.

"Hey~~!"

He shuddered firmly at first, and then made a contented and comfortable sound.

To him, spiritual stones and various spiritual qi are like fresh soup, extremely delicious, but also refreshing. Demonic qi is like that kind of heavy oil, salt and spicy dishes, fragrant, spicy, numb and satisfying. It is the first thing to eat. When I ate it, I felt it was too exciting and a bit too much to take. However, the more I ate, the more I enjoyed it, and I even felt a little addicted.

The dense roots of Wang Zongteng penetrated deeper and deeper. Unknowingly, they gradually penetrated to a depth of more than ten feet. After being supplemented with nutrients and energy, they began to spread crazily in all directions, covering them within an hour. More than ten acres of land.

At the same time, his body also began to grow rapidly, from the thickness of a child's arms to the size of a person's arms. When he lay on the ground and raised his head, he looked like a colorful python.

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally full, so full, I haven't eaten so full for a long time."

Wang Zongteng branched out a small branch, rubbed it against Wang Liyue and started acting coquettishly.

The Wang family will also open up the supply of spiritual stones and spiritual energy to him, but having enough to eat is two different things.

"Then take a rest and digest it before eating."

As Wang Liyue said this, she called on the team to start measuring the amount of evil spirit in the land.

In just one hour, the content of evil spirit in the soil had been reduced by more than half than before. It seemed that Wang Zongteng's devouring ability was indeed extremely powerful.

"This alien vine..." King Lan Xin was dumbfounded. He was shocked and said in horror, "How come it seems to be the legendary world-destroying demonic plant, [Energy-devouring Demonic Vine]?"

When Wang Zongteng heard this, he raised his vines unhappily and gave her a fierce look.

Why do you say I am a world-destroying demonic plant? You are the world-destroying witch, where is the old monster~

"Harmful and beneficial have to be judged from different angles." Wang Liyue touched Zongteng's vines soothingly and said to King Lanxin, "My Zongteng brother is still very well-behaved, and he also works hard and actively when studying. Although his grades are currently It’s not that good, but his learning attitude is very good, much better than that lazy guy Xian’er.”

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

Wang Zongteng nodded desperately at the tip of the vine, expressing his agreement.

It’s better to kiss your sister~

For a time, Wang Zongteng became closer to Wang Liyue, and at the same time, he was secretly thinking about it in his heart. Sister Liyue is so kind, and she still protects him and speaks for him. It seems that she is not as scary as the legend~

"Crack!"

When Wang Zongteng wasn't paying attention, Wang Liyue had already cut off a small vine branch with scissors and neatly put it into a sealed nutrient tank that was taken out at an unknown time: "I will try to cultivate it and see if it is absorbed." The changes after the demonic energy.”

"Eh...ah...?"

Wang Zongteng was stunned.

…

At this time, Wang Yinglei, who was in charge of land reclamation work, also noticed the arrival of Wang Liyue and his party.

She immediately put down her work and came over, reporting to Wang Liyue on the progress of land reclamation.

As the fifteenth member of the Wang family's "Ying" generation, Wang Yinglei has risen rapidly in recent years due to her outstanding abilities, and is now an elite member of the Wang family's training sequence. This time, as the backbone of the family, she was assigned by the family to open up wasteland in the outer demon world and be responsible for some management and coordination work.

She is responsible for the specific coordination and overall planning of this land reclamation work, and she is also supervising the progress of the land reclamation.

She is dressed fashionably, with wavy perms, fair skin, and a tall figure. She also wore a fashionable skirt today, which fully highlights her femininity while being capable.

In this blood moon in the sky and the oppressive atmosphere of the Outer Demon Realm, she is definitely a dazzling sight.

"A large batch of [Black Crystal Rice No. 9] rice seeds and [Xuri No. 3] will arrive in ten days, along with some instruments. Yinglei, you will send someone to check and arrange them when the time comes." Wang Liyue finished listening. After reporting, he made his own request, "In addition, it will take a lot of time to fully reclaim this plain. You can reclaim ten acres of experimental fields first. I want to determine the effect of large-scale planting first, so that problems can be discovered and solved in advance." .”

"Dean, don't worry, there will be no mistakes on my side." Wang Yinglei promised.

While talking, it was already dinner time, and the team clearing up the wasteland in front began to stop to rest.

In this land reclamation team, there are ordinary soldiers guarding the land, "noble" land reclamation puppet masters, supervisory commanders and cannon fodder battalion cannon fodder, as well as the Wang family's elite clan team. The composition of the personnel is quite complex.

During the break, the base logistics department sent food.

There is a shortage of food in the outer demon world, and every bite of food is precious, so the lunches delivered are naturally divided into three, six, and nine grades.

The Wang clan, the puppet master, and the officers were all given fragrant spiritual rice and spiritual animal meat, as well as canned fruits to eat. As for ordinary soldiers and jailers, they eat normal rice and steamed buns, mixed with a small amount of spiritual rice products, canned meat and vegetables.

Only the cannon fodder camp received the worst food.

The rice is brown rice with a lot of rice bran mixed in, and the meat is the "red magic crayfish" that is caught in large quantities. The processing is not very particular. The broken shells and white meat are mixed together, and the cooked soup exudes an extremely difficult smell The smell.

But the cannon fodder camp seems to have become accustomed to it. They eat these inferior foods mechanically and numbly with a gray face.

Wang Yinglei came back after seeing Wang Liyue and others away. When she saw this scene, her beautiful eyebrows suddenly frowned.

She called the supervising commander of the cannon fodder camp over and asked, "Commander Chen, they have also worked hard all day, why do they only eat this?"

Commander Chen hurriedly stepped forward and said in a flattering tone: "Miss Yinglei, you don't know something. These are the scum in the cannon fodder camp. They were all relegated to the cannon fodder camp to atone for their crimes after committing serious crimes. Their food standard today has been doubled.”

"You must not sympathize with them. They all deserve their punishment, and many of them are extremely evil people."

"I know about the cannon fodder camp, and I also know that they are all criminals. But since they are working, they must be full to have strength." Wang Yinglei did not blame Commander Chen, but said, "Our Wang family never lacks hungry soldiers. I see that they are all very thin from hunger, so I’d better give them some food so that they can have the strength to work. Don’t eat too much oil or meat at the beginning, but cook some rice porridge and canned fish to gradually recuperate their bodies. Don’t worry. , I will ask the family to allocate more spiritual rice~"

"Miss Yinglei, what are you talking about?" Commander Chen said hurriedly and solemnly, "Your request is my mission. If you come, why don't you quickly follow Miss Yinglei's instructions."

Soon, the logistics team set up a pot and cooked rice porridge on site, and transported boxes of canned fish and meat.

The fragrant spiritual rice porridge and canned fish made those numb cannon fodders reveal their longing and salivation.

After the first batch was distributed, they drank the rice porridge crazily and greedily and swallowed the canned fish.

This was the most delicious meal they had eaten since entering the cannon fodder camp.

"Pop!"

Commander Chen led a series of whips down and said angrily: "This is all because of Miss Yinglei's kindness. She gave you extra meals, don't you even feel grateful? Why don't you quickly say thank you to Miss Yinglei? She is the Wang family's name "玎" The fifteenth young lady of my generation!"

"Thank you, Miss Yinglei." "Thank you, Miss Yinglei!"

The cannon fodders hurriedly thanked him with tears in their eyes, and then dared to continue eating. But this time, they didn't dare to gobble it up for fear of being whipped.

Prince Dexin and Prince Kang were among the crowd and also received their share.

At this time, their behavior was no different from that of other people in the cannon fodder camp. They also thanked them with trepidation and devoured their food without restraint.

The warm spiritual rice porridge and the delicious canned fish were like a switch, making them all feel the urge to burst into tears.

Once upon a time, they would not even look at this kind of food, but now it has become a supreme delicacy.

Ying Lei? Miss Fifteen? Naturally, they had never even heard of it.

There was an extremely complicated feeling in their hearts. Has the Wang family gained such power now? Can an ordinary tribesman make the supervisory commander be so flattering?

Especially Prince Kang, he felt extremely regretful.

If he had had a different attitude towards Wang at that time and had been flattering, he would not have reached this stage today.

After a little interlude.

The land reclamation work continued in full swing, but compared to before, the cannon fodder camp was more active and worked harder.

…

same time period.

Another corner of the outside world.

Wang Lizi, Lan Wan'er, and Big Rat, who had just returned to the military camp, took advantage of an opportunity to search for food in the wild and unknowingly went deep into the demon territory again.

According to the information provided by Big Mouse, they even passed through three hostile fortresses including the Red Stone Demon King's Castle, and arrived near the Bloody Demon King's Castle within the influence of the Demon God.

The Scarlet Demon King's Castle is actually not that far away from the Eastern Defense Zone of the Fairy No. 3, but it is under the command of the Demon God of Hell and has always been guarded by the Demonic Defense Zone No. 2, so it does not have much interaction with the Eastern Defense Zone.

Outside the Scarlet Demon King's Castle, Wang Lizi and Lan Wan'er followed the big mouse and quietly poked their heads out of the burrow. When they saw the majestic building glowing with blood in the distance, they fell silent.

After a while, Wang Lizi grabbed the big mouse by the back of its neck and pulled it back into the cave. At the same time, Lan Wan'er asked Lan Wan'er to re-seal the soil on top.

Wang Lizi patted the big mouse on the head and criticized: "I wonder if you have lost your head while leading the way. How do you know there are good things in this Demon King's Castle?"

"Even if there is, it is too far away from our military defense area. It is separated by several Demon King's Castles. Once something happens, the sky and the earth will not work!"

They followed the big mouse most of the way. Although they felt that the journey was a bit long and took too much time, they did not expect that they had already reached the vicinity of the Scarlet Demon King's Castle.

Moreover, this audacious big rat actually dug a hole so close to the Scarlet Demon King's Castle!

"Zhizhicha!"

The big mouse protested unconvinced.

This time it’s good stuff and it’s worth the risk. Moreover, this news was told to him by his dear wife No. 395, how could it be false?

"Wait!? Wife No. 395?" Wang Lizi stared, feeling like she heard something extraordinary, "Are you sure you didn't count wrongly? Or did I teach you math wrongly?"

"Zhazhazha!"

When the big mouse heard this, he immediately looked unconvinced, and immediately wrote "three hundred and ninety-five" on the ground with his paws!

What about looking down on rats?

Isn’t it just mathematics? It is learning well~

Besides, is three hundred and ninety-five wives a lot? It still has many wives, and it has lost count of the number of offspring they have produced for it.

The big mouse looked like he was used to it and didn't think there was anything strange about having hundreds of wives.

Lan Wan'er's outlook was almost shattered, and she immediately avoided it in disgust, looking at it with deep contempt in her eyes: "Bah~ you are such a big rat, you are still just a scum rat."

"Didn't you say that there are very few Escape Rats in the Demon Realm?" Wang Lizi looked strange, "How did you get so many wives and children and grandchildren?"

"Zhazhazha!" The big mouse quickly explained.

After a long time, several people finally understood.

Escape rats like it, which possess both space and earth attributes, are indeed a rare breed in the demon world. Most demon rats are still ordinary demon rats with earth attributes, and so are its wives.

Therefore, even though it has hundreds of wives and has reproduced a large number of tribes, it has not been able to give birth to a little mouse with space and earth attributes so far!

"Zhazha!"

When the big mouse said this, he began to sigh.

There are still too few wives and children. I heard that some seniors have tens of thousands of wives...

Wang Lizi was dumbfounded when she heard this, and her eyes turned strange when she looked at the big mouse.

You already have hundreds of wives, but that’s still not enough? If my fourth uncle heard this, what would he think?

…
