Lord of the Misty World

Chapter 495: Traces of the Devil

"Here, here, and here."

Picking up the map, Zhuge Liang marked the village where the case occurred on the map, and soon, a straight line was formed connecting the red dots on the map.

"This is, it came out of the forest."

On the map placed in front of Zhuge Liang, the villages represented by those red dots surrounded the undeveloped virgin forest.

And the incidents that broke out in these villages all occurred at the same time, which meant that these monsters all had a unified command.

However, if the monster goes deep into such a large forest, it is really difficult to search. The large forest of tens of thousands of square kilometers is also connected to Morinaka Road and Jiangbei Road. If it is blocked, more manpower will be needed.

Regarding the situation this time, Zhuge Liang also had a headache for a while, and at this time, inside the mountain forest, the personnel sent by Uzumaki Junya were also fully armed and went deep into the cave.

A squadron has three four-person squads with a total of 12 people, which is already considered a large establishment for ninjas who use squads as their fighting method.

Under the leadership of the squadron leader, he entered the cave. As soon as he stepped into the cave, he could smell a burnt smell, and his skin also felt a slight impact of icy energy.

This is a remnant left over from the previous thunder bombardment of dark energy, and it is not a problem for normal people.

Going deep into the ground along the cave, as the distance from the hole on the ground gets farther and farther away, the light gradually disappears, and the surroundings become a little dark.

But all the ninjas were unprepared, they turned on the flashlights one by one, illuminating the entire cave like daytime.

The entire cave is actually slanting upwards, and the vertical angle of the cave is not too small, so people can quickly retreat upwards.

Every few hundred meters, the Ninja Squadron left a mark. After walking more than a dozen kilometers, they had already penetrated into the ground to a distance of several kilometers.

The cave with several curved angles finally reached the other end.Standing at the entrance of the cave, you can see that the space behind suddenly opens up, and a vast space above the ground is displayed behind everyone.

The entire space on the ground stretches as far as the eye can see. Under the vast land, there are no mountains, rivers, forests, grasslands, and no one even saw some creatures moving around.

The reason why I can see farther than that is because under the head of the cave, there are dots of light. From a casual look, those located on the top of the cave with a height of hundreds of kilometers are some spore plants.

Those spore plants are emitting light at this time, like a star turning back, illuminating the entire cave. Although it has the same brightness as without the sun, it is also special like the evening sky, making it vaguely visible.

Seven weeks after walking to the entrance of the cave, the ninjas of that squadron saw that a small piece of land behind was eroded by dark energy, and some creatures living in underground caves turned into mummies.

Under this land, there is no remaining dark energy.

"Nobody cares."

The squadron leader sloppily observed the environment for seven weeks, sparing not a single inch of land.After arriving in an unknown land, the first thing to do is to protect your own back.

Before finding out that Qi Zhou might be a problem, the squadron leader said to the team members around him.

"Eighth Squadron, they stay at the entrance of the cave. You and the Seventh Squadron are each in charge of an area behind, and a large investigation is limited. If you find any problems, go back and report immediately."

As a ninja, and even an elite ninja, he needs to learn very little knowledge. Before discovering such a huge cave on the bottom, he almost had to think about it. The small above-ground space has no small effect on the Qinghe Empire.

Is it just a small piece of living land that has been opened up, or is it of no benefit to various researches on the Qinghe Empire, and that piece of cave is very small, and there are no above-ground caves in other areas.

If the caves on the bottom of other mines are really discovered, and they are still connected, then it is no less than an achievement of expanding the territory.

A brigade was left to guard the entrance, the squadron leader led a brigade, and there was no brigade to explore on both sides separately.

In the seven-week area, it was eroded by dark energy pollution, and all the plants became withered. That's all, when approaching this piece of land eroded by dark energy, the squadron leader also saw a sacrificial circle .

And walked all the way to the depths of the cave, there were areas of dark energy everywhere along the way, when retreating hundreds of meters, suddenly above the ground, a skeleton drilled out of the soil.

It was the skeleton of a feline creature, but the skeleton was no more than two meters high. Among the pair of white skulls, a dark blue flame was burning.

The appearance of that skeleton creature shocked the squadron leader and the other eight ninjas, and they quickly distanced themselves.

Before the skeleton creature could retreat, the squadron leader reacted quickly, making seals with both hands, and spit out a ball of fire from his mouth.

"Art fire escape ho fireball."

The low-temperature flame quickly covered the skeleton creature, and the flame spit out from the squadron leader's mouth lasted for more than ten seconds.

When the flame dissipated, the fire of the soul of this skeleton creature dissipated, and a pair of bones were scattered all over the place. Before passing through the low-temperature flame, it became a little white.

"Roar--."

But at this time, the squadron leader's powerful fireball technique seems to have caused the creatures in the land eroded by the dark energy to grow horns, scales, or a head missing, and the bat-winged creatures came from behind. The withered forest gushes out.

"Is good."

Seeing such a mass of dark creatures rushing in white, the squadron leader's face changed suddenly, and he said in a low voice.

"No one retreats, you go in and back."

Among the white and dark creatures, there are obviously some creatures with weak energy fluctuations. Those creatures brought a breath of death after the squadron leader who no longer had the strength of silver.

Such a creature must be able to be dealt with by the squadron leader. At that time, the mission of his squadron was to retreat and explore, but to fight desperately.

Now that such a huge cave on the ground is discovered, without a small piece of land and dark creatures eroded by dark energy, the squadron's goal has been achieved.

Now the squadron will advance without any problem.

"Earth escape, rock wall."

With hands in seals, behind the squadron leader, towering stone walls rise one after another. The stone walls tens of meters low are like a city wall to block the actions of those dark and dark energies.

Then, the squadron leader quickly advanced towards the entrance of the cave. Beside the squadron leader, watching such a scene, the eight ninjas also quickly displayed the long-range ninjutsu they had mastered.

Throwing a ninjutsu, regardless of whether it caused damage or not, the eight elite Chunin quickly advanced. At this time, they explored a distance of hundreds of meters. In just a short while, the brigade returned to the entrance of the cave.

At this time, another exploring group also caused a commotion among these dark creatures, and a small number of monsters were rushing towards the entrance of the cave.

"Since that's the case, let's block the entrance of the cave first, and then wait until the heavy troops are assembled before opening up that piece of land."

The squadron leader thought about it, and let all the team members enter the cave, and threw them out along with the first ten or so Kuyou who were tied with detonating charms.

There was a burst of explosions among the beasts, and immediately after, the squadron leader performed ninjutsu, summoning a small piece of rock to block the entrance of the cave that was [-] meters away.

Even using such ninjutsu a few times in a row is a huge waste for the squadron leader. After all, the strength of the silver level can still be compared with the gold level.

Blocking the entrance of the cave, these white and dark creatures had no way to rush out for the time being. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the squadron leader led the squadron back quickly. The cave ten miles away, rushed at full speed, and returned to the entrance of the cave in only a few minutes.

"What happened, why did they return so slowly."

Uzumaki Jun was also very surprised to see that the squadron he had just sent back returned after half an hour.

As the commander-in-chief of the ninja army, and his strength is weak, Toshiya Uzumaki saw the exhausted squadron leader at first sight.

"Report to the commander-in-chief, you retreated into the cave, reached the other side of the cave, and found some dark creatures..."

The squadron leader quickly reported what he saw and heard along the way to Uzumaki Junya. When he heard the situation, Uzumaki Junya's expression became more serious, and he whispered.

"All security personnel, prepare for war."

Before, Uzumaki Jun also said to the squadron performing the mission.

"They go to rest first, but they must also prepare for war."

"Yes."

When Uzumaki Jun also reported his discovery, it was even easier for Zhuge Liang who was at the edge of the forest.

I am still studying the regression of those demonic creatures on my side, and I have made a small incident for myself on Uzumaki Shunya's side.

In a vast and vast above-ground world located several kilometers away, there are many dark creatures that need to be attacked by heavy troops, not only that, but also the dark energy needs to be retreated and cleaned up.

However, before the study, the Qinghe Empire's Master of Resurrection had no effect on governing those lands eroded by darkness.

The dark mage holds a spell that purifies in the name of darkness. According to the strength, the area that the spell can purify is the same.

But without that spell, the Qinghe Empire would have no resistance to the land eroded by the dark energy. If one group of mages is enough, then there are only two groups.

For the Qinghe Empire, the number of people is not a problem. In those years, the Qinghe Empire has been cultivating all kinds of ordinary talents. Within the Qinghe Empire, there are no less than seven hundred dark mages.

Among them, there is a little gold-ranked mage and a dozen or so silver-ranked mages.But no matter what, the Qinghe Empire lacked talents in that area.

When staffing Zhuge Liang that time, Di Feng thought of the dark energy on the opposite side of the white and dark energy, and there were two silver mages and ten bronze mages following Cao Congshi.

"Let those dark mages act first." Zhuge Liang thought quickly.

"It takes half a day for the Guards Barracks to arrive at Uzumaki Shunya's side for support. However, because the roads are not repaired, the number of each legion is unlimited, but now that such a situation has been discovered, it is necessary to send troops to support in time."

"Order, the Legion of Faith dispatches a talented regiment and a combat regiment, and sends them to Uzumaki Shunya's side for retreat support through the air force, because Uzumaki Junya still has a runway built, and the infantry of the talented regiment is transported first. Weapons are being withdrawn until the runway is built."

However, the thing that Uzumaki Toshiya was worried about did not happen. Whether the dark creatures in the cave on the ground rushed out of the cave, which caused Uzumaki Toshiya to fight back and lost some time to go to the field airport It was done in one night.

And overnight, transport helicopters from various places returned to transport soldiers from a battalion of a talented unit of the Legion of Faith.

And after a night of raiding, in the early morning of the seventh day, on the way at full speed, the imperial guard barracks also crossed mountains and ridges and arrived at Uzumaki Toshiya's side.

Without the addition of the two combat battalions, Uzumaki Jun also lost confidence in the strength of the next defense.

When armed helicopters supported and transport helicopters transported talented troops, with the construction of the airport runway, Cao Congshi gathered all the less than a hundred transport planes that he could not mobilize.

Because the Legion of Faith is only responsible for guarding and exploring the cave, and also needs to retreat and search the mountains and forests, as well as retreat support for some villages and towns.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang transferred a mechanized division of the Legion of Faith to Uzumaki Junya's side, without a mechanized division, a guard barracks, and a regiment of 7000 talented troops.

Adding a hundred or so ninjas and more than a dozen mages of various elements, before all the troops arrived, Uzumaki Jun also finished organizing a new exploration on the morning of the seventh day.

And during that period of time, Zhuge Liang made new discoveries. Each of the seven demon corpses transported back was only eight meters high, and it was this seven-meter-high horned demon.

However, those demons and this giant horned demon seem to be of the same race, and their individual strength is not silver-level, and they have the power to deceive people.

After searching the soul memory of those demons, Zhuge Liang mastered the origin of those demons.

Those demons themselves lived under one seat, because the fog rose for seven weeks, and the demons retreated into the foggy world. Then, ten years later, the foggy land merged, and the demon land appeared under a small sea.

Then, this ram horned demon was a weakling of that race.It's because those demons are special people who know little about them.

Before this goat horned demon left, he was summoned here, that is, he appeared outside a mountain forest. This goat horned demon gave orders to those people who were summoned by him, let us hide outside the mountain forest and wait for his order.

And after a long time, those demons suddenly received a message, let us attack the village on the edge of the forest, and retreat for the blood sacrifice.

There was no such sudden incident before, some of those demons completed the blood sacrifice, some escaped, some were caught, and now they are outside the forest.

As for the leader of the horned demon, he retreated to an aboveground world, and retreated to a smaller blood sacrifice.
