Chapter 1069 The Truth Behind the Five States Conscription Order?
"Thank you, phew, I'm finally saved.
"I didn't expect to see so many people in this wilderness. I'm so sorry just now!"
When Lin Lan got the news from the sound transmission jade tube that Chu Miaoyin gave him, and took the good man Richard to the deck of Shenxing Zhou, there was already sitting here holding a half-eaten steamed bun, wearing shorts A little lolita with ponytail, black hair and black eyes in a sleeveless shirt.
The whisk magical weapon on this little loli's waist told him that although she was young, she was still an extreme person.
The character of the little loli seems to be very lively and talkative.
Just a short time after he and Richard arrived at Shen Xingzhou, he had already started talking with Chu Miaoyin.
"Senior, you are here."
Seeing him boarding the Divine Boat with the good man Richard, Chu Miaoyin and the two surrounding Qingxiao Pavilion disciples quickly greeted him with respect.
At the same time, Chu Miaoyin also explained for him:
"The Purple Thunder Kung Fu move just now was used by the Taoist friend in front of me when he was fighting a fifth-level monster."
When Lin Lan looked at this little lolita, the other party also kept looking at him.
And he actually caught a fleeting glimpse of surprise in the eyes of this young Loli monk.
Lin Lan didn't think much about it.
The other party would definitely be surprised that he could be called a senior by Chu Miaoyin who was in the Dan Formation Realm.
After hearing Chu Miaoyin explain the situation to him, this little lolita extreme person also stood up from the deck, held her hands in front of him and said with a smile:
“The following is Lang Yuexi, an inner disciple from the Xiaoyao Sect in Zhongzhou.
"I just wanted to kill a demonic beast and make a sacrifice. I didn't expect that there was an escape team in this wilderness. I am very sorry for causing panic among you. I apologize to you all."
Lin Lan and the good Richard bowed politely and said with a smile:
"It doesn't matter, you did it unintentionally."
After a pause, he curiously asked the little Loli monk who called himself Lang Yuexi:
"But what you just said was 'there are' the fleeing team. Did you see other fleeing mortals before coming here?"
"Well... I have seen them before, but they are not as lucky as the mortals you protect."
Lang Yuexi put the thick-faced steamed bun in her hand into her mouth, and while chewing it, her tone was a little lost:
“Before I came to Nanzhou to travel, I had never heard of so many evil cultivators in Nanzhou.
"All the sects in Nanzhou seem to have been invaded by evil cultivators, and they have no time to take care of themselves. Even several counties and cities seem to have fallen. Aren't they just mortals who have suffered?
"When the sect is invaded, the monks will rush to the sect immediately. The county magistrates are all greedy and afraid of death. How can they care about the life and death of ordinary mortals..."
Although this little loli didn't explain clearly the situation of the mortal fleeing team she saw along the way.
But including Lin Lan, everyone on the deck guessed the tragic situation of the mortal fleeing team from the disappointed tone of this optimistic little loli.
After all, in the eyes of evil cultivators, normal extreme people are also one of the important sources of blood food.
After being besieged by evil cultivators, it was not easy for the extreme people in the villages in the county to protect themselves and escape.
How can we talk about protecting mortals?
Not all sects are like Qingxiao Pavilion, which will carry out long-distance migration with the whole sect's strength under the leadership of Lin Lan.
Not all extremes would risk attracting evil cultivators and flee with so many mortals who would slow them down.
“The county and city have been captured by evil cultivators…how could this happen?
"Aren't there thousands of miles of sound transmission arrays built by Yuanying in every county and city? Didn't the state king send troops to support those counties and cities?"
After Chu Miaoyin heard what Lang Xiyue brought about the current situation in Nanzhou, her face turned a little pale and she asked eagerly.
But Lang Xiyue shook her head with a bitter smile and said to the elder sister Yu:
"The entire Wanli sound transmission array in Nanzhou seems to have failed due to the influence of the evil cultivator's unknown secret method. Moreover, even if Wang Butianhe of Nanzhou receives a message asking for help, I'm afraid he will be unable to do anything."
Seeing the confusion written on Chu Miaoyin's face, Lang Yuexi sighed, spread her hands and said:
"It seems that you are not monks from the Twelve Major Sects of Nanzhou, and you are not aware of this matter.
"A few days ago, His Majesty the Emperor and the Grand Imperial Guard issued an unprecedented conscription order from the five states, urgently transferring a large number of officers and soldiers to Beizhou.
"Nowadays, not only the officers and soldiers in the counties and cities of Nanzhou have been reduced by nearly one-third, but the same is true for the Central, Western and Eastern states."
Not only was Chu Miaoyin dumbfounded, but Lin Lan also frowned slightly, feeling surprised.
You know, when the Hundred Years War broke out between the United States of Oran and the Natland Empire, Natland only sent officers and soldiers from the eastern and southern states to participate in the war.
The brutality of that hundred-year war not only caused the Oran people's naval fleet, Tyrant Mecha and Huanyang Fortress to be almost completely scrapped.
In the Natlan Empire, this long war has a name that even the extreme people are still hearing:
Immortal Fallen War.
But now, despite the fact that there are still evil cultivators and agricultural disaster crises within the Natland Empire that have not yet been resolved, they are still mobilizing officers and soldiers from the five states to rush to Beizhou in an emergency?
Could it be said that the Natlan Empire is going to launch an even more exaggerated war than before?
As for Lin Lan, he speculated on a possibility.
Perhaps Natlan wants to take advantage of the opportunity when all the big demons go to Beizhou to inherit the demon king, and choose to fight to the death with the demon clan?
As if sensing the change in everyone's expressions, Lang Yuexi swallowed the thick buns in two mouthfuls.
The little loli who claimed to be from the Xiaoyao Sect took out a leather water bottle from her storage bag and took a sip before continuing:
"Actually, to tell you the truth, before I left the sect to travel, I got some secrets about the military recruitment order from the elders... Well, could you please give me some more food?"
Seeing Lang Yuexi mid-sentence, his eyes suddenly looked at him expectantly, as if expecting him to bring out some more delicious food.
Lin Lan reluctantly took out a few more thick-wheat buns from the Xumi Ring, as well as a jar of pickled vegetables given to him by the citizens of Dakang County this morning.
"Don't look at me like that. We all eat the same food as the mortals below. If you want to eat meat, I'm afraid you'll have to wait until I arrange for the chefs in Dakang County to bake it freshly in the evening."
"Well, you guys are really interesting, but it's the same for me down there. It's enough to have food to fill your stomach~"
Lang Yuexi smiled and took the thick steamed buns and pickled vegetables from his hand, looked up and smiled sweetly at him.
But for some reason, Lin Lan noticed that the little Loli monk paused for a moment in violation of his movements after his peripheral vision glanced at the Sumeru Ring on his finger.
If it weren't for the power of the brave skill bar, which made his observation far beyond ordinary people, he would not have been able to capture this detail.
As he continued to eat the steamed buns with the pickled vegetables, Lang Yuexi continued to say to him and everyone on the deck:
"Where did I just talk about... Oh, yes, I heard the secret of the conscription order from the elders in the sect.
"The reason for the conscription order given by Yantiansi to the various states and large sects is to destroy the demon king's inheritance altar on the frozen soil of Beizhou in one fell swoop and end the prehistoric beast tide once and for all.
"This reason seems reasonable, right? If we destroy the Demon King's inheritance altar, we will no longer have to worry about the threat of the prehistoric beast tide."
When Lang Yuexi said this, everyone nodded to her, but this little loli suddenly lowered her voice, and a strong look of anger flashed in her eyes:
“But the sect elder is a close friend of the current Grand Master Wu Pengcang.
"Due to an accident, I spied on him and the Grand Master communicating about the letter in the jade cylinder of the Ling Falcon."
After a pause, Lang Yuexi finally told the truth behind the five-state conscription order she had heard:
"With such an unprecedented conscription order, Wu Pengcang is not prepared to destroy the inheritance of the Demon King.
"He wants the army to set out from the Great Wall on the border that stretches from Beizhou to Xizhou to conquer the cliffs and forests that are occupied by aliens, monsters and immortals.
“You heard that right, he doesn’t care at all about the various crises that Natland is facing now, and he has never cared about the lives of millions of Natland’s people.
“And even if he conquers the cliff and Bingsen, Wu Pengcang doesn’t intend to stop there.
"His ultimate goal is to coerce the emperor into agreeing to invade the foreign country called Saint Lothalon...
"He wants to start the second Immortal Fall War!"
