As for Xu Fang himself, he planned to go to Jiaodong, as the notice said it was about awarding ranks and establishing a military academy.
In Jiaodong Naval Battle City, humans and demons are locked in a tug-of-war, with some islands changing hands repeatedly between the two sides, providing a perfect opportunity to kill a bunch of monsters and have some fun.
Chapter 572 Where is there a military officer under thirty years old?
Jiaodong.
The Gulf War.
As the sun sets, it dyes the vast sea a deep red, a beautiful and magnificent sight.
But if you look closely, you'll be horrified to discover that this "red" seawater is actually red.
—The red of blood.
Buzz buzz buzz~~~~~~~
In the sky, countless large worker bees carrying high-yield bombs flew over the sea.
"Hive #14, worker bees have reached the designated location!"
"The dolphins detected a group of sirens, 7 to 10 meters in size, numbering around fifty!"
"Queen Bee, Queen Bee, control the distance between the worker bees and maintain their formation!"
Worker bees have been deployed to the battlefield for nearly two years, and their tactics have become increasingly sophisticated.
For example, when the worker bees initially fly in dense clusters, some cunning sea monsters will fire rays into the sky, causing a chain reaction of explosions.
The swarm is now maintaining an optimal distance, with a large enough fire coverage area, and won't be wiped out by the demons like a domino effect.
"The siren is preparing to set sail and drop bombs!"
"Yes, sir! Drop the bombs!"
The worker bees precisely adjusted their posture, and the bombs, gleaming with a cold metallic luster, fell.
boom! ! !
The explosion was deafening.
A huge splash of water suddenly rose from the sea surface, followed by rolling giant waves that dyed the surrounding seawater a deep, inky black.
The bomb's power was amplified beneath the sea surface; the shockwave penetrated the water, reaching the sirens and tearing apart their defenses.
"Roar!!!"
The sirens roared in anger, but they were met with a second and third wave of bombardment.
"A 20-meter-tall monster has appeared. The swarm of bees is retreating. Eagle Kailong Team is on its way to the scene!"
In the sky, the enormous eagle Chiron spread its wings, locked onto its target with its sharp eyes, and then swooped down.
Like steel claws probing into the sea, piercing through the sea monster's tough shell, they actually lifted them from the surging waves!
"Wow!!!"
The entire sea surface was like a cold, precise machine, grinding each and every demon into minced flesh and blood.
Meanwhile, the fighting on the small islands at sea was equally fierce.
"Yah!!!"
One after another, silver salamanders landed, their bloated bodies crushing the ground, crushing even the sharp edges of rocks and stones in an instant.
Their opponents were also dragon beasts, likely of some kind of bear-like tamed bloodline, with wild, muscular bodies that looked almost bursting, their roughness mixed with a touch of clumsiness.
The two colossal creatures collided, engaging in a primitive yet friendly hand-to-hand combat.
The dragon beasts were clearly stronger, but the salamanders were simply too numerous, surging forward wave after wave, making the two sides locked in a fierce and evenly matched battle!
······
“This is our daily routine,” Nie Lengshan said to Xu Fang, who was on the dragon’s back.
Every day at sea under the scorching sun, Lao Nie has become much darker than before, resembling a rougher version of Ai Jiangtu.
He was transferred from Yantai to Jinlin City, and then led the Dragon Beast Brigade from Jinlin City to support Jiaodong.
Now, Nie Lengshan is no longer the old-timer he once was; his accumulated military merits have led to his rapid promotion to general!
“Come back to Jinlin with me in a few days. The Forbidden Army will take over this place,” Xu Fang said.
"I know that, I was just wondering about it."
Nie Lengshan asked curiously, "If the Forbidden Army comes, what about the Qinling Mountains?"
"We left a small military region behind, led by a staff officer. The Qinling demons were decimated by the Sha Yuan undead, and Sha Yuan has now disappeared again, so there's no need to send heavy troops to guard it for the time being," Xu Fang said.
In this day and age, who has time to consider whether demons are colluding with the dead?
The maritime situation is extremely precarious; we need far more mages!
"You continue to command, I'll kill a batch, let's finish this sooner and go back sooner." Xu Fang stood on the dragon beast.
"Little will-o'-the-wisp!"
"chaos!"
The little ghost fire precisely targeted each salamander, and then chaotic faces twisted and spun above their heads.
"Purple Thorn Grip!"
Purple seeds shot out from the surface of chaos and landed lightly on the salamander.
At first, the seed simply lay quietly among the salamander's rough scales.
However, as a glint flashed in Xu Fang's eyes, an indescribable power began to surge within the seed, using the salamander's body as its breeding ground.
rustling!
A sickeningly loud, crackling sound.
A tiny crack appeared in the seed, from which a faint purple light seeped out.
The light spread rapidly, and then tiny purple roots, like tentacles, emerged from the cracks.
They nimbly weaved among the salamander's scales, their tentacles transforming into giant hands that plunged deep into the salamander's body.
"Hah!!!!"
The salamander let out a series of miserable screams.
Some don't scream.
It wasn't because it didn't hurt, but rather because this unlucky fellow just happened to let the seed fall into their mouths.
The seed took root and spread inside the salamander's stomach wall, penetrating the tough muscle tissue. Its abdomen swelled up like a balloon, and then burst out suddenly with a piercing tearing sound!
Its body twisted and deformed under the restraint of the vines, eventually losing all control and falling to the ground, becoming a huge, living "flowerpot".
With tentacle elements everywhere, this is what it means for a doujinshi to become reality!
Even the dragon beast opposite was stunned, its thick, pillar-like legs unsure whether to lift or lower them.
The salamanders that were just moments ago fighting to the death against me have now turned into rice dumplings covered in strange purple plants.
—The rice dumpling is getting flatter and flatter!
"So strong..." Nie Lengshan stared intently. He thought he was already pretty impressive for breaking through to the Super Rank, but he didn't expect the gap between him and Xu Fang to be getting bigger and bigger!
"All done." Xu Fang clapped his hands, glanced at his watch, and said, "Let's go, it's time for lunch."
······
Beyond the coastal battlefield, there was a bustling construction site with a banner that read "Warmly welcome our Forbidden City Army brothers."
When the two arrived, the cafeteria was just opening for lunch.
"What's this?" Xu Fang asked, picking up a dark, jelly-like object.
“Braised sea cucumber with scallions,” Nie Lengshan said matter-of-factly. “People who live by the sea eat from the sea. Sea cucumber demons are also sea cucumbers, they’re all pretty much the same.”
Not far!
Xu Fang had seen sea cucumber demons before; they were several meters long, black, and sticky.
The large steel gate simultaneously breathes, excretes, and eats. After consuming its prey, it quickly vomits its excrement back out the same way it came, which is both disgusting and terrifying!
Apart from this braised sea cucumber with scallions, the other main dishes were all hardcore siren dishes.
Although it looks strange, it tastes surprisingly good, and its smooth texture makes it hard to stop eating.
"Hey, look over there, isn't that Xu Fang?"
"It really is! It's Xu Fang alive!"
"I heard he's here for an award ceremony; he'll probably be awarded the rank of military commander this time!"
"How could that be? There's no way a military commander could be under thirty. Even if he's strong, has many military achievements, and a lot of influence... well, being a military commander isn't necessarily a bad thing."
Chapter 573 Awarding Ceremony!
The all-day battle with the sirens finally came to a temporary end, and the air was filled with a mixture of gunpowder smoke, the saltiness of the sea, and a faint smell of blood.
"Water Control·Cycle!"
"Ground wave!"
Water and earth mages cleaned the battlefield, burying the demon corpses and then sweeping them away with water.
"Radiance!" The light mage carefully illuminated the battlefield, disinfecting it as much as possible.
Sirens have evolved in some strange direction in the deep sea, and many species of them have toxins in their blood that evaporate when exposed to air!
"Sigh, we're always cleaning up the mess. When will we ever get to fight demons?" the earth mage said.
"Dream on! The Hive has researchers, and there are mid- to high-level mages in direct combat. Who are you to challenge?" The water mage continued working without looking up.
"How can I earn military merits, exchange them for resources, and advance to the intermediate level if I don't keep going?" the earth mage said indignantly.
The light-elemental mage, a seasoned veteran in his forties, shook his head and said:
"They really don't know how lucky they are. In our time... no, just five years ago, cleaning up the battlefield was the job of the local neighborhood committee. No matter whether a novice mage could win or not, they had to go to the battlefield and fight the demons to the death!"
