I have an endless army of warriors, rampaging across the heavens.

Chapter 42 Time: Three Months! [First update, starting today, 3 updates daily! Please continue reading! Please vote with monthly tickets!]

"happy!"

Zuo Jing ordered two suicide bombers to bring steel plates to seal the passage.

Five minutes later, the first and second explosions ended. The ten level-eight assassins who had been involved in the earlier explosions were all weakened to varying degrees and would need one to three days to recover.

This rest doesn't mean lying in bed without moving.

Instead, it would take one or even three days of continuous digging to restore it.

These ten people are temporarily out of the fight.

But it’s harmless.

Zuo Jing still has 17 level-eight assassins in Huangsha City who can fight, and 34 level-one assassins to assist him. After the massacre and battle just now, he believes that they will be able to intimidate everyone in Huangsha City.

"Now!"

"Everyone, listen to my command, leave your houses, gather at the drill ground, and hand over your weapons."

"Men, women, and children should be separated."

"Slaves, auxiliary soldiers, and combat soldiers are separated."

"Family members should start on a separate line."

Zuo Jing ordered his level-eight elite soldiers to guard the entrance to the passage, and then disarmed all the soldiers in Huangsha City. After taking stock of the supplies, he found a lot of bows, arrows, javelins, throwing axes, and leather armor, enough to equip an army of five thousand.

"Although these equipment can be recycled, they are long-range and designed to target alien beasts, so the wear and tear is bound to be significant."

That's why we have so many reserves.

These are all small sums of money for the Lei family, which has existed for two hundred years.

The real money actually came from a steady stream of supplies such as rice, flour, and cooking oil. Even the wood for starting a fire and every brick and tile of Huangsha City had to be brought in from outside by the Lei family.

The intrinsic value of the materials is one aspect.

The consumption and losses associated with transporting goods to remote mountain forests are another aspect.

"I've discovered a blessed place. I'm so lucky."

"Occupying a blessed spot is difficult."

"Developing a blessed land is extremely difficult, requiring a huge investment, and mostly continuous investment."

And what about the output?

Mythical beasts, precious meat, and other resources that may exist in the blessed land.

Then.

Is it worth exchanging a lot of worldly resources for such precious meat?
"Definitely worth it!"

Zuo Jing asserted, "If we didn't occupy this blessed land, how could we produce such precious meat? If we didn't have precious meat, how could we cultivate experts? If we didn't have those experts, how could the Lei family have stood firm in Shangyang Prefecture?"

What others have, I don't.

It is a catastrophe.

The Lei family has cultivated many top experts, which they may not need. However, when other forces send experts to carry out decapitation strikes, they cannot do without top experts to deal with and counter them.

Not to mention that this blessed land is miraculous and may contain even deeper secrets and opportunities.

"No matter how great the cost, the Lei family must occupy and develop this blessed land."

Ok.

The same goes for Zuo Jing.

……

"Report~"

"There are currently 202 slaves, 303 family members, 505 auxiliary soldiers, and 101 combat soldiers in Huangsha City, totaling 1111 people."

"We currently have 30 jin of rice and flour."

"5000 jin of oil."

"3000 catties of salt."

"50 jin of firewood."

The assassins inspected and tallied the food and other supplies, and made a preliminary estimate that they could feed and drink about 1,500 people for three months.

Within three months—

"Either find other blessed lands in the blessed land of yellow sand and solve the food problem."

"Either we deal with the Lei family outside the blessed land and seize the entrance to the blessed land to transport supplies from the mortal world."

The former depends on luck.

The latter is more promising.

"It has only been two months since I awakened my innate wisdom, yet I have already managed to snatch food from the tiger's mouth and give the Lei family a huge loss."

"Three more months?"

How strong am I?

"What grade is the broken jade?"

How many loyal soldiers does he command?

I can’t even think about it!

The Lei family is a small fry; they can be wiped out in a flash. They are nothing to worry about.

However, relying solely on the supply of goods in the real world is not realistic.

"We will not wait or rely on others."

"This is the right path."

The Lei family occupied the blessed land of Huangsha for eight years, during which time they sent out dozens of exploration teams of all sizes, but they never found a second oasis.

What bad luck! But if it were Zuo Jing, things might be different.

"I have assassins."

"There are also remnants of jade."

Canyu can locate assassins, and Zuojing can possess assassins.

With such abilities, Sakyo could control his assassins to move in a straight line.

As long as we keep moving forward, we'll eventually get out of this desert.

"The largest Sahara Desert in its previous life was 5600 kilometers long from east to west and 2000 kilometers wide from north to south."

"Assuming this desert in the Blessed Land of Yellow Sands is as big as the Sahara, I will send out four groups of assassins from Yellow Sands City, heading in the southeast, northwest and southwest respectively."

"Traveling a hundred li a day".

"In theory, it would only take 20 days to get out of this desert."

even.

If Huangsha City were located on the edge of the desert, this time could be further shortened.

The reason why people can't walk fast or far in the desert is that there are few landmarks in the desert, making it easy to get lost and often going around in circles. In a day, they may not even walk ten miles.

But assassins are different.

Zuo Jing uses the broken jade for positioning and the assassins in Huangsha City as anchor points. He can continuously correct the direction of the scouting assassins and always walk in a straight line, never getting lost.

This advantage alone surpasses the Lei family by countless means.

Not to mention that Zuo Jing can possess assassins. If an assassin encounters a strange beast, Zuo Jing can possess it and find out what kind of beast it is, where it is located, and even its attack methods.

"desert."

"I'm an expert!"

The issue of stamina during desert travel is practically non-existent for assassins who can restore their stamina by digging in the ground.

He's practically the chosen one, a son of the desert.

"Explore!"

"Let's explore tomorrow!"

Zuo Jing immediately made the decision.

just.

Before Zuo Jingteng could make a move, he sent out his assassins.

The second day.

early morning.

The sky was just beginning to brighten over the yellow sandy blessed land.

This blessed land is different from the outside world. There is no sun or moon, so there is no day or night. The people of Huangsha City are used to synchronizing their time with the real world, taking the faint light of dawn as night and the bright light of dawn as day, which is how they manage to match the day and night in the real world.

It's hot during the day.

The night was cool.

Since there was daylight anyway, the exploration teams mostly traveled at night when it was cool, while the people in Huangsha City mostly slept at night when it was cool.

Different.

now.

The people in Huangsha City were awakened from their sleep by Zuo Jing.

Meanwhile, the exploration team led by the assassin Zhao Erwujiu was braving the sandstorm to make its way.

I walked all day and worked so hard.

Trembling with fear and trepidation.

They feared attacks from strange beasts or sandstorms.

A day without incident.

This is the second day of our journey.

suddenly.

A passing trend.

It's not a sandstorm, but an attack by a strange beast!

……

"what!"

A scream suddenly rang out.

Zuo Jing possessed the body from time to time. This time, he had just possessed the body when he suddenly heard this scream. He was so frightened that he quickly looked over.

In dim light.

You can see a giant sand lizard, whose color seems to blend into the desert, opening its blood-red maw and suddenly swallowing a slave whole.

"What a huge chameleon!"

Zuo Jing was shocked.

A normal adult chameleon has a head and body length of 4.1-5.8 cm and a tail length of 5.5-7.0 cm, making it quite miniature.

But what lies before us—

It's more than twenty times the original value!
Visually, its head and body length are estimated to be over 1.8 meters, and its tail length over 2.4 meters.

The entire length reaches an astonishing 4.2 meters or more.
