Confessing to someone who thinks I'm a fat otaku, and then crying when monsters descend?

"Pass down the order: all troops, attack!"

Rumble!

The war drums thundered, their sound deafening and extremely rhythmic, like the beating of a passionate heart.

"Open the city gates! All troops, attack!"

"Open the city gates!"

The soldiers frantically pulled up the gates, and the city gates opened wide.

Immediately, a vast procession of human warriors marched out of the city, clad in silver armor and wielding sharp weapons, their movements perfectly synchronized.

The leading general rode a warhorse with a fluttering flag on it, on which was written a large, bright red character.

year!

Changnian City was named by Gu Qingyue herself, and the country's name is also "Nian," in order to thank Chen Nian for saving all the people of the underground city and giving them a future and hope.

In this battle, they must fight for their own future and hope!

"They're setting off for the campaign, and we should catch up quickly. They'll probably be at the front lines soon!"

"Holy crap, I'm so nervous... This is my first time fighting a war! I've only ever seen it on TV."

"What's there to be nervous about? We're not going to die. Just do our best. The worst that can happen is we lose and drop a rank."

"No! Since we're already here, let's not be negative. Let's stand with our side and fight!"

"I'm not waiting any longer! I'll go and spearhead the attack, test their strength first!"

"Rush!!!"

The extraordinary individuals followed the army and headed to the front lines.

.......

Gu Qingyue didn't expect that she would see those women from Chen Nian's family again so soon after they parted ways.

Ye Hongling, Zhao Yixue, Shang Zeying, Tang Rou.

"We meet again, Princess."

"Why aren't you at the front lines? What are you doing here?"

"Of course, it's to protect you. After all, if you die, we'll lose out completely," Ye Hongling said with a smile.

Zhao Yixue said expressionlessly, "What a pity. If we had joined the Eastern Wilderness Human Race, we could have eliminated you all from Chen Nian's side."

Gu Qingyue: ......

This is a rather difficult decision.

Zhao Yixue and Ye Hongling are the most elite fighters in the Dragon Kingdom. If they don't go to the front lines, the pressure there will be even greater. Coupled with the huge disparity in numbers, they'll probably crumble at the slightest touch.

Once the front line is destroyed, the enemy army will press on to the city, and the people inside will be trapped like turtles in a jar.

"Thank you..." Gu Qingyue bowed her head slightly.

"Don't thank me yet. I've done the math, and if we were to fight on the front lines, our chances of winning would be less than 20%. We'd be almost certainly no match for them. We're staying here to protect you as a precaution, to prevent us from losing too quickly."

Ye Hongling's thinking was quite clear, and she analyzed the situation very thoroughly.

Gu Qingyue's face darkened. "Are we just supposed to stay here and wait to die?"

"Wrong, it's you who's waiting to die, not us," Zhao Yixue added, but the princess showed no obvious emotion.

She asked eagerly, "Then how do you think we can win?"

"To win this battle, we need to wait for one person, you know that."

"Chen Nian? Where is he!" Gu Qingyue pressed.

"I don't know, there's no news," Zhao Yixue replied.

Ye Hongling smiled and said, "Princess, you can rest assured, he will definitely come back. How could that scumbag Chen bear to let such a beautiful confidante like you die?"

........

Eastern Wilderness Army Camp.

The extraordinary individuals have spontaneously formed an elite squad.

"Gentlemen, I am Captain Clinton."

"The team of thirty consists entirely of top-tier transcendent beings at the fourth rank or higher. Our sole objective is to kill the enemy faction's commander!"

"As you've all seen, that beautiful princess is our target. I hope you won't hold back when the time comes."

Immediately, someone asked, "What if the other side also sends someone to assassinate our commander?"

"Haha, there's no need to worry. It's said that the Beast God is incredibly powerful and invincible in the Eastern Wilderness. Moreover, there are 10,000 Eastern Wilderness warriors left behind to guard the area, so there's no fear of a sneak attack."

"Then we're guaranteed to win?"

"That's right, even if our assassination attempt fails, as long as the front lines prevail, the final victory will still be ours!"

The main force of the Eastern Wilderness also began to advance. The superhumans who joined the Eastern Wilderness camp were not flustered at all. With such a large, dark mass of people, any individual heroism would be useless.

Before the two armies officially went to war, a few stubborn superhumans had already charged over alone, recklessly rushing over with the principle that trading one life would be a loss, and trading two life would be a huge gain.

["Sparta" defeated "Liu Xiaowen", contribution points +50]

["Erlan" defeated "Zhou Long", contribution points +50]

"Defeating one person can actually earn you 50 contribution points?"

"I can't stand it anymore! I need to hurry and make a move, or there won't be any contribution points left to grab!"

"Go go go!"

Before the two armies had even officially met, the superhumans on the Eastern Wilderness side couldn't hold back any longer and began advancing at maximum speed.

In their eyes, everyone on the other side is a walking contribution point!

"We've spotted them!"

"Everyone, let's launch a charge and rake in some contribution points!"

The first great battle was thus initiated by the extraordinary individuals.

.........

Ancient forbidden zone.

Chen Nian and Su Jinyu have been staying here for several days.

But today was strange. Li Bai used to clamor for meat every noon, but today he didn't say a word. He just stood in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, looking at the blue sky.

"Grandpa Li, are we not eating meat today?" Su Jinyu asked tentatively.

"I've taught you everything I needed to, and I've seen enough of this world. It's time for me to leave." Li Bai sighed. "It's a pity I'll never be able to enjoy delicious meat with wine again."

Chen Nian asked, "Where are you going?"

"In that battle, my strength was almost exhausted. I endured for hundreds of years, and now I can finally be free."

At this point, Li Bai actually revealed a relieved smile.

"You... have guarded this ancient forbidden zone for hundreds of years?"

"I'm so happy to finally meet you all. I'm so fortunate, haha."

Su Jinyu lowered her head, her usual cheerful expression gone, replaced by a somewhat forlorn look.

"Little girl, this is for you."

Li Bai took the wine gourd hanging from his waist and handed it to Su Jinyu.

"I...I'm a good kid and I don't drink," Su Jinyu said hurriedly.

"pity."

"But I didn't say I didn't want it!" Su Jinyu snatched the wine gourd and shoved it into Chen Nian's hand. "Give it to him. He can drink, which suits your style perfectly."

Li Bai's eyes widened in anger, but he still sighed, "Never mind, his talent is indeed one in a million."

"Thank you, Senior Li Bai." Chen Nian bowed slightly.

Suddenly, Li Bai rose up on the wind.

Chen Nian and his companion looked up and saw stirring verses coming from above.

"The roc rises with the wind, soaring ninety thousand miles high!"

"Haha, this journey through life was worthwhile!"

Immediately, Li Bai's figure disappeared into the blue sky, leaving no trace.

After respectfully seeing him off for a while, Chen Nian and his companion began to discuss the follow-up matters.

"Xiaoyu, go back and help them. They really need you right now."

"Aren't you coming back with me?"

"I'm going somewhere else."

"where?"

"Eastern Wilderness".
