High Martial Arts: A Cataclysmic Beast? I am the only Beast Tamer!
Chapter 207 The Tragedy of Canglan City! A Curse of Reincarnation?
Beneath Canglan City.
The human undead powerhouse who had just repelled the skeletal behemoth and saved everyone looked nervously at Lu Yu at the front of the crowd.
In a short time.
An eerie silence fell over the room.
The students looked at each other.
They looked at each other, but none of them dared to speak.
even if...
They were filled with curiosity about the "Holy City" and "Her Majesty the Empress" that the undead powerhouse had mentioned.
But at this moment.
Even the most obtuse person knows not to speak carelessly.
One is not good.
It's entirely possible that these supreme-level human undead would turn their swords against them!
So.
This moment.
All the students' eyes, including those of several top-tier geniuses, were on Lu Yu.
But then...
To everyone's surprise, including Lu Yu's, it was...
A woman's voice suddenly rang out, breaking the silence.
"Her Majesty the Empress has not abandoned Canglan City."
"only……"
"The Holy City is also under siege, and its crisis is many times greater than that of Canglan City."
The words fell.
Everyone present instinctively looked in the direction of the sound.
That's when I realized...
The one who spoke was Qin Shiyao, who was standing behind Lu Yu, with a cold and stern face and little presence!
This moment.
Not to mention everyone else, even Lu Yu was stunned!
What holy city, what empress...
Like everyone else, he knew nothing about it!
Why does my cousin seem to know so much about me?
On the other side...
The human undead powerhouse clad in silver armor, upon hearing Qin Shiyao's two sentences...
In a short time.
He fell silent.
He unconsciously tightened his grip on the trident.
"I knew it, I knew it!"
"Her Majesty the Empress will not abandon any city, nor any of her subjects!"
"It's my incompetence, my weakness. I'm not strong enough. Let alone going to the Holy City to help His Majesty, even Canglan City is about to fall..."
The human undead powerhouse spoke in an extremely low voice.
In conclusion.
He even punched his own chest hard in frustration and self-reproach!
Such a scene.
This left all the students completely stunned.
When they looked at Qin Shiyao again, they were all filled with awe and wonder!
Good guy!
Did the icy girl beside Lu Yu actually answer the question posed by the undead powerhouse?
"Then you..."
"They must be messengers sent from the Holy City on His Majesty's orders, right?"
"My name is Huang Feng, Deputy Commander of the Third Guard Army of Canglan City!"
After the supreme leader introduced himself...
Clearly, they wanted to ask more questions about the Holy City and Her Majesty the Empress.
but……
He seemed to realize that this was an overstepping of his bounds.
So he could only take a deep breath, then look at Lu Yu and Qin Shiyao, and say solemnly:
"The city lord is currently recuperating in Canglan City. I'll take you there!"
The words fell.
Huang Feng then led Lu Yu and the others through the dilapidated city gate and officially entered Canglan City.
……
……
Canglan City.
This city is very large!
It was even several times larger than Jinling City, the largest city Lu Yu had ever seen!
only……
This vast city and its streets are now almost entirely reduced to ruins, a scene of utter desolation.
above the earth.
You can even see enormous footprints!
That is……
The footprints of a giant beast!
The largest footprint is hundreds of meters long, and from a distance it looks like a huge pit!
"Hundreds of meters of footprints?"
"This must be a Saint-level behemoth, right?"
Among the crowd, a student watching this scene let out a soft gasp.
A Saint-level behemoth...
Aside from television news and textbooks, they have almost never seen it in person!
Those who have seen Saint-level behemoths...
Apart from the top experts, almost everyone else is dead!
"Huh?"
"In such a large city, how come I only see elderly people and young children as human undead?"
while walking.
Some students noticed this and couldn't help but ask in confusion.
And this time...
The one who answered him was Huang Feng, the supreme commander who was leading the way at the forefront.
"By order of Her Majesty the Empress—"
"When war comes, everyone in the city, except for the elderly, children, the sick, and the disabled, will need to fight and defend the city!"
"The total population of Canglan City is 58 million. Excluding the 5 million elderly and children, the remaining 53 million have all joined the war!"
This statement came out.
The students present were immediately taken aback.
Many people, even subconsciously, felt a surge of respect.
On the contrary, Lu Yu frowned slightly and asked the question that had been bothering him:
"Fifty-three million?"
"But those we saw outside the city just now seemed to number less than ten million?"
The words fell.
Commander Huang Feng remained silent for a long while.
Then, he spoke softly:
"The siege of Canglan City has lasted for a month, with 45 million soldiers sacrificing their lives!"
"now……"
"Only eight million warriors remain to defend the city."
"If the losses continue, the last remaining elderly and children in the city will have no choice but to take to the battlefield..."
Upon hearing this...
Lu Yu fell silent.
Qin Shiyao fell silent.
Nearly 10,000 students present remained silent.
Even the countless Chinese viewers watching the live stream were speechless.
Although Commander Huang Feng's tone seemed very calm.
But beneath the calm surface...
It is the death of more than 40 million of our fellow countrymen!
This is a...
The tragic song of Canglan City!
and!
The saddest and most desolate truth is...
The warriors outside the city and even this supreme commander were already dead!
At this moment, they were all in a state of being undead.
only……
They themselves don't seem to know it yet.
They thought...
I fought desperately and managed to defend the city in the end.
But actually.
Within the city walls, the colossal beast footprints, hundreds of meters long, foreshadowed the ultimate fate of Canglan City.
The city fell, and people died!
People are dead, defend the city!
"Did we arrive at the perfect time, or...?"
"Is this a curse of reincarnation?"
"Dying again and again, defending the city again and again, dying again and again, in an endless cycle..."
Thinking about this...
Lu Yu felt suffocated, his heart heavy as if a massive boulder was pressing down on it!
And behind him.
Qin Shiyao, who knew the cause and effect.
She, who was always as cold as an iceberg, now had tears welling up in her eyes, and her whole body was trembling.
In the space of her consciousness.
The illusory image of the empress remained silent.
But two lines of clear tears were slowly falling from the corners of her eyes...
