Chapter Five Hundred and Ten: Joining Hands

Li Chao, this kid can do it!

After being appreciated by Lengguan, not to mention entering the palace guard, now he has taken over such an important task on his own.

It seems like a duck to water in the palace guards!

This is good news for Link. Li Chaoyue is highly regarded by Lengguan and Xu Tianzhao, and the more powerful he will explode in the future.

It was not until the afternoon of the next day that the group finally walked out of the broad-leaved forest under the leadership of Link.

Although he walked a little slower, sharpening his knives did not cut firewood by mistake. When Link got to Longcheng, he could just "sit back and enjoy the success". These three generations of disciples have proved that others will never doubt the authenticity of his identity.

After staying in the broad-leaved forest for two days, after walking out of the woods, the sky suddenly became clear, and everyone was a little uncomfortable with such sunny weather.

Shortly after walking out of the broad-leaved forest, a rammed border post can be seen at a distance of more than ten kilometers.

In normal times, there are also many people coming and going in the earth compaction border post here, all of them are sect disciples or businessmen who enter the Twilight Ridge broad-leaved forest area to search for and capture wild animals, or dig for rare resources in the forest. A small number of soldiers were left in the border post to monitor Twilight Ridge's every move.

But once it enters March and April every year, the atmosphere here will be highly tense.

Large numbers of soldiers began to assemble, dig trenches and build fortifications.

The beast tide is extremely terrifying, but it does not mean that the other party will gather a wave under the dragon city wall before launching a big counterattack. If so, then Longcheng has been broken many times. The real situation is that there are countless such frontier fortresses in the Gobi hills hundreds of kilometers away, and there are hundreds of them. It reduced the number of beast hordes arriving under the Dragon City wall by more than half.

It can be said that these border gates are the main force to resist the beast tide, and Longcheng is the bottom line to resist the beast tide.

The atmosphere at the border post was chilling. Soldiers dug fortifications outside the post. The naked eye could see various traps, ditches, and a two-meter-high foundation that seemed to be raised abruptly.

Link knew this in his previous life. This is a purely artificial foundation. The purpose is to hinder some small beasts, preventing them from passing smoothly and trampling on each other in the beast tide. After that, each obstacle has a special effect, which is the experience that Longcheng has summed up with blood and tears in the process of fighting the beast tide for so many years.

"Senior Brother Qin Shou, let's go to the border post for a little rest. The elders of Zhaizhong and the officers in charge of this recruitment are at the [Blood Fortress] at the rear. We can arrive by a freight truck in half an hour."

Link nodded in agreement, taking this opportunity to take a rest at the border post and learn more about Dragon City by the way.

Even the information of the branch of the monster security company dispatched is limited to the inside of Dragon City. Little is known about the real frontline information of these border posts.

Said to be a border post, it is actually a rammed city.

Every year, these frontier posts are faced with the fate of being attacked and destroyed by the beasts, so the people of Longcheng learned to use local materials. Dig the soil blocks directly into the ground and make them into rammed earth, and then use the wood cut down in Twilight Ridge not far away to make wheels, and build a solid earth rammed city piece by piece.

Everything in the city is simple, but only two buildings stand out.

One is the military building of the defenders in the city, which is the highest point of the Tucheng. There is a watchtower on the top of the military building, and you can immediately notice the changes more than ten kilometers away. The military building is surrounded by the garrison camp, covering an extremely wide area, and the outer periphery is a layer of earth-rammed city walls, forming a city within a city.

Another building is the Exchange Square in the corner of the city, where many people are selling medicinal herbs, rare treasures, or beasts in cages dug up from Twilight Ridge. Intensive exchanges, shoulder to shoulder.

When Link brought the saber-toothed tiger king into the city,

Many people's eyes have been falling on him and his pets.

The beast tide is imminent, and all kinds of rare beasts appear in the Twilight Ridge. At this time, there are only some beast-controlling sects who come to the front line.

The saber-toothed tiger king is tall and his eyes twinkle, even a layman knows that this thing is powerful.

Some savvy hunters or animal riders know the rarity of a saber-toothed tiger king, and their eyes glow, and they unconsciously follow the saber-toothed tiger king. There are many people who have the idea of ​​going up to talk about business, but when they see the Qinjiazhai who is following Link's back, they put their minds away.

The other party is the beast master of Qinjiazhai, so this king beast will definitely not be sold.

Under the powerful aura of the Saber-toothed Tiger King, and under the influence of the two halos, some beasts or pets that were originally hostile around them now died down, lowered their heads or simply turned their backs. On the contrary, the black bears, snow foxes and other pets of Qinjiazhai's trial disciples had smart eyes, and their bodies exuded a strong aura that strangers should not enter.

What surprised everyone even more was that this saber-toothed tiger king seemed to have other abilities.

From time to time, it will become gray-white and translucent, somewhat similar to the state of the soul.

After placing the pet, Link strolled around the earthen city and checked some news. For example, the beast tide is approaching, and the wind and rain are about to come. Every day at dusk, a large number of birds and beasts will fly out from the Twilight Ridge, forming a "black cloud".

The soldiers in the entire rammed city are tense, because you never know if the beast tide will come in the next second.

At the back of the earth-rammed city, you can see the sandstorm set off by the fleet of military trucks, like a crouching dragon, heading north quickly.

After everyone ate and rested for the night, when they woke up the next day, they found that the inside and outside of the earth-rammed city was already full of soldiers.

All soldiers wore armor and bows and held long spears.

The reason why all kinds of hot weapons are not used is because when the beast tide comes, the beasts have thick skin and thick flesh, and their armor will be greatly improved, as if something is affecting them. Only these specially crafted, spell-breaking metals can pierce through defenses and hurt them.

The atmosphere in the earth-rammed city was chilling. The soldiers lined up on the city wall. All kinds of arrows, bed crossbows, kerosene, and supplies were all ready to be in place.

"Senior Brother Qin Shou, let's get to the [Blood Fortress] soon. It should be two days since the beast swarm has come."

"Okay, we'll start now, is the car ready?" Link couldn't help asking.

"Ready to go any time."

Link waved to set off, five people were seated in the truck compartment, and all the pets were pulled in the back compartment.

When the saber-toothed tiger king jumped into the car, the entire truck shook visibly. At the same time, the black bear, snow fox, and poisonous scorpion in the back compartment all shrank into the corner, and none of them dared to squeeze the saber-toothed tiger king. The saber-toothed tiger king glanced at the other beasts, let out a dull snort, and then lay down in the carriage to take a nap.

The truck started, and proceeded along the only passable road, rushing to the front line headquarters [Blood Fortress].

This is the only way to pass. After the beast tide came, once the defense line of the earth-rammed city collapsed, all the crew retreated from the earth-rammed city in advance, detonating the detonator buried under the road while retreating along the way, blowing up the road, the beasts only Can pass through arranged traps.

These trial disciples all seemed very excited. During the conversation, Link knew that they had only been to the front line and Twilight Ridge before, but had never personally participated in the beast tide. This beast tide can be said to be the first time in their life experience.

No wonder, only this kind of stunned green dared to go deep into the hinterland of Twilight Ridge to capture beasts.

In exchange for any experienced animal master, he would not choose this time to enter the hinterland. At most, he would try his luck in the broad-leaved forest.

Two hours later, through the windshield of the van, Link saw the magnificent and huge blood fortress in the distance.

Just like the name, the blood fortress is blood-red throughout, and the fortress with a height of tens of meters stands on the plain, which is spectacular from a distance. There are countless fangs and spikes on the surface of the fortress, some of which are several meters long. From a distance, the entire surface of the fortress seems to be wrapped by sharp objects. If you charge directly, you will be stabbed by countless spikes. .

If the earth-rammed city is destroyed and rebuilt by the beast tide every year, then the blood fortress has been standing on the blood plain since its establishment.

The name of this fortress and plain is also named after the fight against the beast tide.

Every time the beast tide fades, the entire plain is stained with blood, and the land here is also dyed bright red over time, which is difficult to fade away. And the red paint on the surface of this fortress came from the blood of various king beasts, which naturally exudes a terrifying deterrent power.

Even during the beast tide, the beasts became extremely aggressive and frantic.

When passing through the blood fortress, it will instinctively give way.

Even the most powerful beasts in the beast horde would not dare to make trouble in the blood fortress that was smeared with the blood of various king beasts.

When I came to the blood fortress, the situation here was not much better than the frontier border. The soldiers were on guard and inspected various facilities.

The truck drove directly to the gate of the courtyard where Qinjiazhai stayed.

Qinjiazhai, as the beast-controlling sect, sent many disciples this time to participate in the fight against the beast tide, and Longcheng arranged special residences for these forces.

When Link got out of the car, the trial disciples around him rushed into the yard in a hurry. Link even heard a broken voice shouting: "Senior Brother Qin Shou is back, Senior Brother Qin Shou is back~"

The others followed Link into the yard with proud smiles on their faces.

After a while, all the elders and disciples of the Qin family came out.

The surrounding disciples had stars in their eyes, and when they saw the Queen of the Saber-toothed Tiger held by Link, they were even more unbelievable, and their admiration was beyond words.

"It seems that this Qin Shou didn't brag at all. He is indeed the best among the three generations of disciples." Link sighed to himself.

Immediately, Link saw a middle-aged man with a fluttering shirt and a long beard walking quickly.

"Where have you been, kid, I thought you lost it!" The middle-aged man looked happy, and when he saw the saber-toothed tiger king beside Qin Shou, he was even more surprised.

good boy! After going out to practice, he actually came back with a king beast!

Next, there was a burst of concern and conversation from the elders.

So Link moved out of the old rhetoric, and there were trial disciples in charge. This elder named Qin Mian had no doubts.

Just kidding, to be able to capture a saber-toothed tiger king, from this point of view, it shows that he is extremely skilled in animal control and his strength is superb.

Link has never seen any big scenes, and in this case, it's easy to get through.

"Quickly find suitable clothes for you, Senior Brother Qin Shou, and bring them to the room to rest." Qin Mian arranged for his disciples to wash the dust for Link. Just as he was about to say something more, the assembly bell of the Blood Fortress rang, and the bell rang in a low voice. It quickly spread throughout the fortress.

"We're going to have another meeting. It seems that the beast swarm will be in the next two days. Don't run around in the past two days, just follow the orders in the fortress." Qin Mian sighed, and just took two steps and turned around again. He added: "This meeting will take a long time. If anything happens during this time, you can report to Qin Shou."

After Qin Mian left, Link's long sleeves were good at dancing, and he quickly got along with these three generations of disciples. He told a lot of things about Qin Jiazhai from their mouths, which was enough for normal chat.

After that, Link threw his work to the three generations of disciples who had been with him before, and led the saber-toothed tiger king to the recruitment office of the blood fortress.

The reason why it is not riding is because of the [Unstable Dual State] of the Saber-toothed Tiger King. This guy suddenly becomes a soul state at no time. In the soul state, people will fall directly from the back, and there is absolutely no way to ride. Unless you can find a pair of soul saddles bound to it, you can carry foreign objects in the soul state.

"I'm here to register for recruitment." Link showed the Qinjiazhai waist badge and certificate he got from Qin Mian, and successfully entered the registration office.

The soldiers looked at the king beast that Link was holding, and their expressions were not right.

Mom, even some elders of the beast-controlling sect don't necessarily have king beast pets.

Qin Shou is the leader of the three generations of disciples in Qinjiazhai. He got a saber-toothed tiger king at a young age. It seems that Qinjiazhai will take off in the future~

Soon, Li Chao, who was in charge of recruiting, came over after hearing the news.

This time, Lengguan personally selected Li Chao to be responsible for the recruitment, and the recruited talents will form the wolf cavalry together with the soldiers of the military who are good at cavalry. This time, with the help of the wasteland wolves in Shadu, Longcheng is full of expectations for the fight against this beast tide. As long as this job is done well, Leng Guan once hinted that Li Chao would have the opportunity to enter the city lord's eyes and become the real core of the palace guard.

Therefore, Li Chao is also very concerned about this. Every animal master who meets the standard self-recommendation must personally meet and check his ability.

"Qin Shou, the leader of the three generations of disciples of the Qin family village. The beast pet under your seat... the saber-toothed tiger king!"

"King beast?"

Li Chao's eyes widened and he was a little surprised that a third-generation disciple actually possessed a king beast, which was extremely powerful on the battlefield.

For example, if the beast tide comes, there are many saber-toothed tigers among them, and there is a saber-toothed tiger king on several sides, these saber-toothed tigers will not attack after seeing the king beast, which can be said to greatly weaken the number of beast-toothed tigers.

The saber-toothed tiger is one of the strongest beasts in the beast tide. If there is this saber-toothed tiger king, it can weaken the power of the beast tide to a certain extent. Especially the first wave of shocks.

"Congratulations, Qin Shou, you have officially joined the cavalry battalion through recruitment."

The corners of Link's mouth rose: "I still have some things I want to talk to Inspector Li about. I wonder if I can..."

Li Chao did not suspect him, and warmly invited: "Come, come to my office to discuss in detail."

PS: Ask for a monthly pass in the new year
