Chapter 252: First, We Have to Kill the Demon Lord! (Ask for Monthly Ticket)
…
A "sudden" war began under the conspiracy of a thoughtful person.
I don't know whether these five demon kings were bewitched by something or suddenly went mad. They mobilized a large number of demon soldiers in a short period of time, divided them into five groups, and suppressed them in the Dongqian Defense Area.
Each demon king's army includes more than a dozen lord armies, with a total of more than 50,000 elite demon soldiers.
This is a pretty terrifying force. I think back when Da Gan was still weak, when such an army of demon kings came up, he basically had to fight tooth and nail.
But today's "Donggan Defense Zone" is no longer what it was in the past. With the huge increase in national power, coupled with the large-scale development of the demonic world outside the territory and the strengthening of defenses, it is not so easy to bully.
All demon king armies were blocked by extremely strong fortifications.
For example, the [Qiu Shui Xiong Pass] on the north side is built in the most dangerous place in the high mountains. It is the first line of defense to guard the north road [Giant Scythe Demon King's Castle].
It is extremely difficult to build a grand pass here. Daqian has spent countless manpower and material resources on this over the years. If it were not for the strong participation and support of the in-laws and families led by the Wang family, it would not have been possible to build it in just thirty years just relying on the Daqian treasury. Such a majestic pass.
Fortunately, today's Donggan Demon Realm Defense Zone has been operated into an independent economy. Not only has it achieved self-sufficiency in food crops, it can also produce various high-quality grains, refined iron ingots, various minerals, mid-to-high-end wood, Magic crayfish and other cultured products.
After part of it is digested outside the territory, there is still a lot of surplus, which can be transported to Daqian through the boundary ferry. By then, whether it is internal digestion or export, it can bring considerable benefits to Daqian.
While the immigrants and the major aristocratic families are making a lot of money, the officials of the Demon Realm Daqian Defense Zone are naturally making a lot of money, so they have spared no effort in investing in the construction of various defense facilities and the construction of the army.
Over the past few decades, it has naturally accumulated a solid foundation.
[Qiushui Xiongguan] On the city wall with a thick reinforced concrete structure, a new-style divine cannon stands majestically on the fort. This new type of divine cannon has a long range, powerful firepower, fast reloading, and high accuracy. It is extremely capable of containing large-scale swarm attacks.
"Boom boom boom!"
Amidst the thunderous explosions, one powerful shell after another blasted into the demon army like a violent storm.
The elite demon soldiers were bombarded with limbs flying all over the sky, and even the demon generals would suffer considerable trauma if they were hit from the front.
The ferocious attacks of the demon army were repulsed one after another.
It has to be said that Daqian's defense system construction over the years has indeed been very successful. With one against five, Daqian was able to survive.
However, the fierce offensive did not scare off the Demon Army. After one wave of offensive was contained, the Demon Army organized the next wave of offensive again, which continued in an endless stream, causing huge pressure on the defense of Daqian Defense Zone.
In a short period of time, the defense of Daqian Defense Zone can naturally support it, but the ammunition will always be used up. In the long run, no one dares to say how long it can last.
Similar battles are unfolding on all lines of defense.
As the war continued, various defense lines became increasingly tight, and messages for help began to fly to the rear like snowflakes one after another.
The Donggan Demon Realm Defense Zone has been completely "dragged" into the quagmire of war. After hearing the news, all walks of life in Daqian began to send people and efforts to assist the Donggan Demon Realm Defense Zone.
However, "the house leaked and it rained all night." Just when the defense zone of Donggan Demon Realm was under full attack, the Blood Boy Demon Lord, who had been holding back his strength for a long time, finally started to take action.
The three Kunwu giant ships all descended into the West Sea, leading a fleet of hundreds of ships to press towards Daqian. They gathered the elite troops of the Western Jin Dynasty and Southern Qin Dynasty to forcefully cross the West Sea and launch an attack on Xihai County.
How have the defenders of Xihai County ever dealt with such a giant ship?
At that moment, the Xihai County garrison was beaten to the point of retreat and was completely defeated.
Xihai County immediately sent out a message asking for help, and at the same time, a mass exodus of people began to be organized in Xihai County.
For a time, refugees from all walks of life abandoned their homes and fled to surrounding counties.
All the aristocratic families in the country and the military also organized troops to go to the West Sea to support. The entire Xihai County has become the center of the whirlpool of war.
At this moment, Daqian, in order to resist the attack of the five major demon castles in the demon world outside the territory, has been "devastated". Most of the elite troops have been restrained on the battlefield outside the territory. Now that a fierce battle in Xihai County has begun, the situation is inherently As for Daqian, which is not optimistic, it is undoubtedly adding insult to injury.
As the newly appointed "Shou Guo Du Fu" of Da Qian, Wang is naturally bound to have the unshirkable responsibility to protect his family and country.
Immediately, Wang Shouzhe announced that the "Supernatural Banquet" and "Guo Gong Banquet" originally planned to be held were suspended.
Moreover, the Wang family quickly took the lead in organizing batch after batch of militia teams within Changning County and even Longzuo County, either on the battlefield in Xihai County or on the defense zone of the Dongqian Demon Realm.
As the war became more intense, even some guests and worshipers from the Wang family's magical power realm and Lingxu realm were sent to the battlefield one after another to provide support.
The once bustling Changning County seemed to have suddenly become deserted, and the main residence of the Wang family seemed extremely empty. Almost all the clansmen who were able to go to the battlefield went to the battlefield.
Soon, some friendly countries of Daqian, such as the Dazhou Kingdom of Muzhen Continent, also received the news. However, just as they were preparing to gather elite troops to cross the ocean to support Daqian, they received news of provocation and friction from the border demonic country.
That posture is as if you dare to send out elite troops to support Daqian, and they dare to send troops immediately.
Dazhou and other countries immediately did not dare to act rashly. Even if they wanted to support, they had to give up the idea for the time being and only secretly provided some resources.
Similar situations occur in various countries.
The Xian Dynasty is slightly better, but many of the main forces are still at the Xian No. 3 defense base and have not been withdrawn yet. Similarly, some dirty things happened in the defense areas that Immortal Lord and Immortal Emperor were responsible for, which delayed them for a while.
For a while.
Rumors are spreading within the human race, and many people are lamenting privately that the current situation in Daqian is extremely bad, and they are afraid that the Immortal Dynasty will not be able to spare their hands to support them.
And there seems to be panic within Daqian.
The entire Daqian seemed to be shrouded in a panic that was about to collapse, and the situation was in ruins.
…
at the same time.
Xihai County.
In the flagship of the three Kunwu giant ships, the Blood Boy Demon Lord was in his cabin, reading the latest battle reports.
The more he looked, the more obvious the smile became on his face.
During the recent period, the war situation has been developing very smoothly, and everything is moving in the direction I expected. If this trend continues, it won't be long before he can successfully obtain the "Holy Gu Book".
By then, merging the two treasures and impacting the true fairyland may no longer be empty talk.
Just when the Blood Boy Demon Lord was extremely excited.
Suddenly.
A spatial ripple spread across the study room.
Someone wants to tear apart the space and teleport here!
The blood boy demon king's heart moved. Just as he was about to raise his profound energy, he saw a tall figure in black clothing stepping out of the ripples in the space and slowly walking towards him.
It's the Demon Lord!
The Demon Lord's movements were very casual, and even the steps he took to create ripples in space were like taking a leisurely stroll. It was as if the art of space movement was just a conventional method for him, such as flying in the air, and it was effortless to perform. .
Probably because he had just traveled through space, the power on his body had not been gathered, and the monstrous demonic power spread out with him as the center of the circle. For a moment, the entire world seemed to become a little darker.
The Blood Boy Demon Lord felt a chill in his heart and immediately stepped forward to pay his respects.
"I've seen the Demon Lord."
The Demon Lord waved his hand to signal him to get up, and then he said, "I already know the news. You did a good job."
"Thank you Demon Lord for the compliment. It's also thanks to the treasure you gave me that everything went so smoothly."
"But this level is not enough now." Demon Lord said, "Next, I want you to encourage the Western Jin Dynasty and Southern Qin Dynasty to put all their forces on the ground, strengthen the offensive, and take Guilong City directly. For my next step Adding fire to the plan.”
"This... Demon Lord, are you doing this a little too hastily?" The Blood Boy Demon Lord hesitated for a while after hearing this, "The intensity of the current attack is almost the limit that the two countries can accept. If the attack is strengthened, the strength of the troops will be reduced. It will definitely increase further, and the complaints in the hearts of the two great emperors will probably become even worse. Moreover, if you are so impatient, if you accidentally fall into the enemy's trap, won't all your previous efforts be wasted?"
The Demon Lord did not speak when he heard this, and only glanced at him coldly.
The Blood Boy Demon Lord's heart trembled, and he suddenly felt an unparalleled huge pressure. He lowered his head and changed his words quickly: "It's my subordinate who said too much. I will put pressure on the two great emperors to continue to strengthen their attack." .”
The Demon Lord understood the principle of giving a sweet date with a slap. He withdrew his eyes and said calmly: "Don't worry, the time has come. The plan will soon enter the closing stage. The strong attack between the two countries does not need to last for a long time." .”
"When this battle is over, if you fail to obtain the "Holy Gu Book", I will personally get it for you to help you take a step further."
The Blood Boy Demon Lord was overjoyed and hurriedly leaned over to thank him: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
After he finished thanking him and straightened his body again, the Demon Lord was no longer there. In the air, there was only one spatial ripple slowly rippling, indicating that the Demon Lord had been here.
Seeing this, the Blood Boy Demon Lord gradually dimmed the joy in his eyes, and turned to deep contemplation: "Although the war is going very smoothly now, the casualties under the attack were also heavy. Both Yanqing and Yuanyou have already complained about this. Think about it. If we want them to strengthen their attack, ordinary methods may not work, and we will have to use more powerful medicine to force them."
Thinking of this, he immediately summoned two of his confidants and whispered. The two men immediately took the order and left.
…
Just when Daqian was in a state of turmoil, it seemed that it was falling into many crises.
A Yunray flying boat from the Immortal Dynasty landed at [Xinping Airport] in an elegant manner.
In order to welcome the distinguished guests, Xinping Airport has already been under martial law, and only the Wang family and the escort team are standing ready.
The person who came to pick up the boat this time was Wang Fugui, the representative of the new generation of the Wang family's direct lineage.
At this time, Wang Fugui was no longer the weak young man he was before. Although he is almost fifty years old, he still looks young, but his temperament has become mature and steady, making him appear extremely reliable. As for his facial features, although he is not extremely handsome, his slightly round face makes him look approachable and trustworthy.
It is worth mentioning that, thanks to the prize he received from the Officer Academy, Wang Fugui's cultivation level has now reached the Zifu realm. He is also the youngest person in the Wang family to break through to the Zifu realm.
And his qualifications reached the second level of the Emperor after inheriting the book, and he successfully entered the first rank of the Wang family.
now.
In the airport, Wang Fugui, wearing a jade crown on his head, a jade belt around his waist, and gorgeous clothes, was among the stars and the moon, and he was really full of aura.
Coupled with the unfathomable aura, he already seemed to have the flavor of a superior person.
That way, he looked more like a peerless young master from an immortal family than an heir to a third-grade family.
As soon as the cabin door of the flying boat opened and a group of people began to walk down the gangway, Wang Fugui took the initiative to greet them. He held his hands to the group with a smile and said: "The Wang Fugui family of Changning would like to welcome His Royal Highness Crown Prince Chiyue."
It turned out that the visitors were Shentu Jingming, Wang Ruobing and others who had come all the way from the Demon Dynasty.
As it was an official diplomatic visit, Shentu Jingming was not as casually dressed as before. Instead, he wore a complicated and formal crown prince's dress. From the crown to the shoes and even the accessories, they were all very elegant and simple.
This black dress made his temperament somewhat calm. Coupled with the few strands of beard specially grown on his chin, it really gave him a somewhat mature and steady look, making him look very reliable.
He cupped his hands towards Wang Fugui and said with a smile: "Jing Ming is so virtuous and capable that he can actually come to greet [the most noble son of the human race] personally."
"Your Highness, please stop joking." Wang Fugui shook his head and smiled bitterly, "This title is just forced by those who do good things. Wealthy is just a direct descendant of a third-grade family, so he does not deserve this title."
A third-grade family?
Shentu Jingming’s mouth twitched.
The third grade of your stuff is really valuable.
If all the third-grade aristocratic families in the world were like yours, wouldn't it be a matter of just a snap of the fingers to push the demonic world outside the realm?
After a brief exchange of greetings, Shentu Jingming introduced the people around him: "Fugui, this is Miss Ruobing and Mr. Zhuo. You have met them at the Xian No. 3 base, so I won't say more."
Later, Shentu Jingming introduced some of his entourage, all of whom were elites in his East Palace and future ministers of the humerus.
Dongqian and his party were just a small branch of Shentu Jingming's visit to the Immortal Dynasty, so they brought very few people with them. Of the dozens of people in total, half of them were receptionists from the Immortal Dynasty.
After some greetings, the Wang clan began to ceremoniously entertain the visitors from both the immortal and demon dynasties with extremely high standards.
Among them, Shentu Jingming, "Wang Ruobing", and Mr. Zhuo were invited by Wang Fugui to the Wang family's main residence, and were directly invited into Shouzhe's small courtyard.
"Brother Fugui, your ancestors lived in such a simple courtyard?" Shentu Jingming glanced at the simple decoration and furnishings in the courtyard and couldn't help but marveled, "But look at the strange plants inside and outside the walls of this courtyard. There are countless flowers and plants, it seems that your ancestor was a refined person."
"Brother Jingming." Wang Fugui said with a smile, "My ancestor has a quiet nature and doesn't like wandering around very much. Moreover, he is a nostalgic person. He has been used to living in this small courtyard since he was a child. He has never allowed us to change, so he has always maintained the original The appearance. Brother Jing Ming, Mr. Zhuo, and Miss Ruobing, please come here."
Wang Fugui introduced the three of them into Shouzhe Courtyard.
Among the vegetation, a figure wearing a robe and pruning flower branches suddenly caught their sight.
Judging from the back view alone, he has a tall figure and the air of a distinguished person.
However, the Crown Prince Jing Ming was slightly startled when he looked at this figure from behind. He felt that he looked very familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.
He was about to step forward to say hello, but saw the man turn back and look at him with a smile.
That appearance and demeanor instantly matched a certain figure in his memory.
"boom!"
Crown Prince Jing Ming felt as if his brain had been struck by a thunderbolt. He was blown to pieces and his brain was buzzing.
This, this, this, this is not...
His eyes were widened and he looked at Wang Shouzhe in horror, then he glanced at the goddess Ruobing cautiously.
The last time I saw him, he appeared as a descendant of the Ruobing Goddess tribe.
But Ruobing, isn't she from a country in the Demon Dynasty camp?
"Gudu!"
He swallowed hard, as if he understood something, and his legs began to tremble a little.
This, this, this... he seems to have discovered a huge secret~
Goddess Ruobing is from the Immortal Dynasty camp, but she has mixed up with the Yinsha Sect and aims at the position of the Demon Lord of the True Demon Palace.
What a far-reaching and terrifying layout and conspiracy is this?
Once successful, the entire world will change.
No matter which family or force it is, a conspiracy of this level is definitely the core secret. Once a conspiracy of this level is uncovered, there is only a dead end.
As the saying goes, the more you know, the faster you will die... If you don't want to die, you have to pretend you don't know anything and keep the secret honestly.
Yes, I, Shen Tu Jingming, don’t know anything.
Crown Prince Jingming's brain was running rapidly, and he made a decision almost instantly. Then he pretended to be calm and mentally constructed himself, trying to act like it was the first time they met.
However, while Crown Prince Jing Ming was doing all he could to mentally build himself up, Wang Shouzhe slowly put down the flower scissors and greeted him with a smile: "Brother Jing Ming, I have to say goodbye to you and I on the Green Fairy Island. We haven't seen each other for a while. "
In an instant, Shentu Jingming almost shed tears.
Brother, don’t tell me, I don’t want to know your big secret at all~~
Mr. Zhuo suddenly became nervous, feeling as if he had fallen into a big conspiracy.
"Don't be nervous." Wang Shouzhe patted him on the shoulder, "Come on, sit down and talk, and you can try the Xianpin Ling rice wine I brewed by myself."
Shouzhe set up a small table in the yard. This time Liu Ruolan did not cook in person, but the cook prepared some simple home-cooked dishes.
The reason for this is not that Liu Ruolan knows that her cooking skills are not good, but that she believes that the delicacies she carefully cooked can only be enjoyed by those who approve of her.
This Shentu Jingming is undoubtedly far behind. As for the ancestor, he has always been soft-spoken and is one of the few people who doesn't like eating her carefully prepared delicacies.
Xianling rice wine is delicious, mellow and sweet, and the side dishes are also fresh and delicious.
But Shentu Jingming was in a state of confusion, his eyes scanning Wang Shouzhe and Wang Ruobing from time to time.
"Old Ancestor, you haven't eaten hometown food for a long time." Wang Shouzhe filially served the food to Longyan Ancestor, "You have been tired from traveling around for these years."
"Shou Zhe, we are all here to protect the family, so there is no need to talk about hard work." The ancestor of Longyan was eating his hometown food, with a touch of tenderness and warmth in the corner of his eyes, "When it comes to hard work, you are the one who works the hardest. One. You’ve been under too much pressure these past few years.”
Such a heartwarming scene made Shentu Jingming feel even more anxious.
By revealing the secret in front of him like this, could it be that after he finished the meal, he would break the cup and rush out hundreds of elites to kill him and silence him?
"Brother Jing Ming? Is the food not to your liking?" Wang Shouzhe noticed his discomfort and asked with a smile, "How about I ask the cook to prepare some other meals for you?"
Shentu Jingming's heart skipped a beat. He really couldn't bear it any more. He immediately slapped his chopsticks on the table and said, "Master Shouzhe, if you want to do something, do it quickly. It's so painful to use such a soft knife to grind people." .”
! ! !
Mr. Zhuo was so frightened by his move that his heartbeat skipped a beat. He quickly stared at Wang Shouzhe's face and unconsciously clenched the chopsticks in his hands.
If Wang Shouzhe behaves in the slightest strange way, he may not be able to help but take action.
However, Wang Shouzhe was slightly startled and looked at Shentu Jingming in astonishment: "Do it?"
"Isn't that right? I broke through such a big conspiracy in your family, no, secret..." Shentu Jingming patted his chest, as if he was ready to die generously, "If you want to take action, just do it, if you can die in Ruobing, ugh , I have no regrets about her family."
"Brother Jingming, you are overthinking." Wang Shouzhe smiled and shook his head, "I have no enmity with you, and I think we are quite compatible. Why should I kill you?"
"No killing?" Shentu Jingming's eyes were filled with confusion, "But aren't you afraid that I will reveal your secret?"
"Brother Jing Ming is not such a person." Wang Shouzhe looked solemn and said solemnly, "I often hear my ancestors and Fugui mention that Brother Jing Ming is a person with a big mind, courage and ambition. Therefore, I don't want to be here anymore. I kept this from you."
These words made Crown Prince Jingming's bones feel light and his eyes were full of hope: "Goddess Ruobing, did you really say that about me?"
Wang Longyan glared at him coldly: "Eat."
"Yes, yes. I'll eat it now, I'll eat it now." Shentu Jingming continued to eat the rice, and felt that the food was sweeter than ever before, not to mention how delicious it was.
Even Mr. Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief and started eating quietly.
I have to admit that this Wang's spiritual rice is really good, it seems to be sweeter than the same variety of spiritual rice from Mo Dynasty.
After relaxing, Mr. Zhuo also ate with gusto.
After drinking and eating, Wang Shouzhe ordered the servants to remove the leftovers, and ordered people to fetch the tea sets, and treated everyone to drink tea: "To be honest, the internal strife between us immortals and demons is really a bit ridiculous. Let's not talk about it for now. The demons in the demon world are in charge, and they have never completely extinguished their desire to invade. From a distance, our Shenwu world is just a remote corner of the countryside. It is really unwise to fight internally like this."
"Brother Shouzhe's idea is very popular with me." Shentu Jingming said excitedly, "I have always told the old guys at home to take a longer view and a bigger picture. Our goal should be the stars and the sea. In my Under the influence, the structure of our hometown, no, our ancestors has finally become a little bigger."
"Oh, it's a pity that the trees want to be quiet but the wind never stops." Wang Shouzhe sighed, "Some people just like to fight among themselves."
Shentu Jingming obviously knew what he was talking about, and his face became dignified and serious: "Brother Shouzhe, I have heard about the situation that your Dongqian and Wang families are facing now. Well, I will send someone to reprimand Nan first. The emperor of Qin and the Western Jin Dynasty and the Yinsha Sect ordered them to retreat and assist the Donggan defense area in resisting the invasion of Demon King's Castle on the battlefield outside the territory."
"Brother Jingming is very righteous." Wang Shouzhe bowed his hands in salute.
Even Patriarch Longyan nodded slightly and gave him an approving and encouraging look.
This Shentu Jingming is normally eccentric by nature, but he can still be relied upon at critical moments.
In an instant, Shentu Jingming's bones became a few taels lighter: "Hey, hey, brother Shouzhe, you're so polite. In fact, I can't stand the various ways the Demon Lord secretly behaves. If you need me to do anything else for you, just ask. , I will fully cooperate with you."
"Okay, then I won't be polite to Brother Jing Ming." Wang Shouzhe continued lightly, "First, we have to kill the Demon Lord."
"Okay...wait!"
As soon as Shentu Jingming finished speaking, his eyes popped out, and he looked at Wang Shouzhe with shock and disbelief.
His voice also became stammering and incoherent: "Brother Shouzhe, you, you, you, what are you talking about? Kill the Demon Lord? First..."
