It doesn't matter what the lord is.

But the problem is that the armies of the world today are not strong enough to deal with such a monster in terms of numbers.

Villages, towns, fields, cities, a large number of people have no ability to resist this thing. And every time this monster passes through, thousands of people will die, which will only strengthen its strength and make the situation further collapse. According to the corpses themselves, this is also the power given to them by their "gods", "to bring the dead back to life"

The army heading north is more like a beast tide than an army. They have the same wisdom as humans, but are more brave and skilled in fighting. They will form a battle array like humans, with large beasts charging in the front, followed by medium-sized beasts, small beasts harassing the enemy formation, and flying beasts conducting air strikes. Different animals cooperate well with each other, tearing through the human defense line with their fangs and claws.

The usual city defense skills were useless in the face of such an opponent. Not to mention the birds and beasts that kept attacking from the sky, the city walls were dozens of meters high. Fierce beasts like tigers and leopards could jump over them with a few leaps and tear the soldiers defending the city to pieces on the spot. The psychological defense line that the defenders had worked so hard to build would collapse in an instant in such a scene, and those who turned their backs on the beasts and ran away would not have a good ending.

According to the beasts themselves, this is the power given to them by their "gods" to "enlighten the ignorant beasts."

The Western Qin territory obviously had other backup plans, and no one knew what the tree that reached the sky was used for. But these two armies alone were enough to overwhelm the people of Yongtian. The scars left by the dragons' passage were already difficult to repair, and the entire Yongtian Kingdom was slowly recovering. Now the monsters from Western Qin suddenly attacked again, and the already pessimistic situation fell to a freezing point again.

In the meeting hall, Lide walked out side by side with Lingwu Lord Yu Qingzhao. Both of them walked hurriedly, and Lide spoke briefly:

"The military situation on the front line is very tense. Let's rush to the battlefield today. The zombie tide is plundering all the way to the west. It is obviously coming for Yunyang. I think they want to cut off the firearms production line. The beast tide is heading all the way to the north. Most likely it is coming for the capital. They may want to destroy the decision-making center. No matter which side has problems, the situation will become uncontrollable."

Yu Qingzhao said coldly:

"Your Yunyang, take care of it yourself. Leave the beast tide to me, don't worry about anything." Lid exhaled and said:

"Those monsters, whether corpses or beasts, all came from the two territories of Xiqin and Nanchu. But this battle we are fighting is not against Xiqin and Nanchu, but against the foundation of the Abyss Church that has existed in the world for hundreds and thousands of years. I know you look down on the Abyss Church, but don't be careless."

Yu Qingzhao stopped and did not refute, but just said lightly:

"I have lived for hundreds of years."

Lid nodded and said:

"I believe you. Zhao Zhao, if there is only one person in the world who can stop them, I believe that person is you. The new regime has just been established, and the people of the world are watching. If we cannot stop the beast tide outside the capital and are forced to move the capital, I am worried that the people will lose their hearts."

Yu Qingzhao strode away, leaving only one sentence:

"It won't happen one day."

Lide also strode away, first meeting Xiao Hei and Jiang Lianqing, entrusting them with matters concerning the [Potian] army, and then meeting He Yue and Shuang, also telling them some things. About an hour later, Lide left the capital with only Alaiya, and began to rush to the Yunyang territory.

"Alaiya, what does God look like to you?"

On the way to Yunyang, Lid asked Alaiya this. Alaiya said softly:

"I have no recollection of the past. Occasionally a few images flash through my mind, but they are not pleasant ones.

Memories. It's not as good as when I was with the young master.

Have fun. ”

Lid smiled and said:

"Everyone knows that gods are good, but humans have seven emotions and six desires, that's why we are human. I was wondering how she could evolve after sacrificing so many people and collecting blood and souls at the cost of so many lives. Now it seems that the magic of gods is not that good. I don't think it's a rewarding thing to run rampant in the world with this patched-up ugly monster."

Alayya replied:

"I only know that no matter if they are real gods or not, as long as they are my enemy, I will do my best to fight them. I will not hesitate to sacrifice my life." Lid patted her head gently and replied:

"You've grown up, Alayya. Soon, I'll be able to eat your soft rice."

Alaiya put her hand on the sword at her waist. She felt a little sad at first because she felt that she should have become strong enough to protect her master. But she did not show her sadness. Instead, she smiled and said to Lid:

"Yes, Master."

Reed and Alayya encountered a tide of zombies in Tiancheng territory.

Standing on the top of the mountain, Lid could see the dark tide below the mountain, and the dark monsters were rushing towards this side. They seemed to be no longer satisfied with devouring humans, and there were many abrupt giant trees and rocks mixed in, like a mudslide engulfing the mountain, destroying and accepting everything in front of them.

Lid exhaled and said to Alayya:

"It's time to work, and it's a lot of work. Although I'm looking forward to someone going to Xiqin to chop down the tree and get rid of the woman, I don't think there will be such a person. It's better to clear out the monsters here as soon as possible so that we can pack up and go to Xiqin to meet the monster who calls himself a god."

10. Tide of Zombies

Reed realized one thing a long time ago.

When the torrent of history rolls in, everyone is like facing a raging tide. The waves are surging, covering the sky, and then crashing down. This process may be very short, with a few minutes and seconds separating life and death, or it may be very long, like a blunt knife cutting meat for decades.

In this wave, a magical phenomenon often occurs: those who want to do something don't have the ability, and those who have the ability hide behind others and are unwilling to come out. So from then on, Lid told himself that he didn't want to be a glorious hero, but if no one stepped forward, he would turn the tide himself.

Alayya's sword was very fast. With the ninth level of perfection, she was only a hair's breadth away from becoming the youngest female swordsman in the Eternal Heaven Kingdom. She followed Lid and jumped down from the mountain. The scenery in front of her was quickly rewound behind her, and the sound of the whistling wind was in her ears.

As autumn approaches, the weather becomes hot and cold, and the wind is a little chilly today.

Monsters were surging like a tide below. Alaya was getting closer and closer to them, and she could smell the rotten smell more and more clearly. Alaya had been to the battlefield several times and had seen the disgusting scenes after the war. Corpses piled up like mountains, vultures and flies circling, she remembered all that. Now it was as if the corpses all over the ground had merged together and turned into surging meat paste, but if you look closely, you can still see every person who died in the battle.

As if aware of the threat from above, the heads on the monster suddenly raised up, and countless deep eye sockets looked at Alaiya. Alaiya clenched the sword in her hand, and suddenly Lid's voice rang in her ears:

"Remember when we first came to Yuxi City, I also took you deep into the demon clan's territory." Lid paused and continued:

"It's the same this time. Just treat it as sword practice."

Alayya felt her heart suddenly relax a lot, and her tense body relaxed a little. She adjusted the sword energy around her and swung the sword fiercely when it was about to reach the ground.

This sword seemed to have a tremendous force.

Although she knew that the monster below was made of flesh and blood, she still instinctively used the "Sea Breaking" when she attacked. She had practiced this move countless times, and although her realm was not high enough, her sword was much more like Qingyun than the one she used to deal with the Lingwu Lord in Luofengpoxige.

The muddy monster was neatly cut in half, while Alaya and Lid landed safely in the storm of sword energy. The originally immortal monster could not close up immediately under this sword, and the break in the middle remained. But the muddy monster always had a way. The flesh and blood around it surged up to the sky, and then smashed towards Lid and Alaya from all directions.

The piece of meat wrapped the two people, and the next moment it suddenly exploded around, splashing into a blood rain.

Lid shook off the flesh and blood stuck to his hands, still smiling, but his eyes were full of cold murderous intent. He said to Alayya:

"You still remember the swordsmanship I taught you, right?"

Alaiya swung her sword to block the blood and flesh that surged up, and said to Lid: "Master, I remember everything."

Lidd said:

"Then you should also remember that I taught you how to use a sword to kill people." Alaiya nodded:

"remember."

Lid exhaled and said:

"Then kill them. Kill them once each time they resurrect. Kill them once each time they resurrect a hundred times. Kill them once each time they resurrect ten thousand times. Kill every corpse that comes here until they can no longer stand up. There is no one in the world who is immortal. Even gods will perish one day, let alone these dead people who pretend to be gods."

Alayya perked up and replied:

"Yes!"

The monsters on the field stopped heading west towards Yunyang, but stopped and gathered towards the center, slowly gathering towards the direction where Lid and Alayya were. The city defenders who were waiting in the distance seemed to have noticed something was wrong. The monsters did not arrive at the city as expected, so something must have gone wrong.

The general in charge of defending the city was named Yi Dai, a legitimate general of the Yunyang school, and the current commander of Hu'an City in Tiancheng Territory. The city lord led the people to migrate westward, and he and some fearless soldiers stayed behind, stockpiling some gunpowder and planning to die for their country. Unexpectedly, the monster did not arrive as expected, so Yi Dai summoned a subordinate and arranged for him to go out of the city to check the intelligence. An hour later, his subordinate rushed in and said loudly:

"The monster is fighting with something and is now blocked about ten miles outside the city. Sir, what should we do?" Yi Dai asked:

"What's the situation?" The subordinate shook his head:

"I don't know. The monster was too big. I could only reach the periphery. When I saw it stop and heard explosions in the distance, I guessed that it was fighting with something." Yi Dai and the adjutant looked at each other and said coldly:

"Take the gunpowder we left behind and leave the city!"

The adjutant did not refute Yi Dai's order. After all, in front of that monster, it made no difference whether there was a city or not. Just like a city wall could not stop a flood, the monster could swallow up a city in an instant. Since the monster was restrained by something, the soldiers who stayed behind would rather take gunpowder and blast it over there instead of waiting here. Maybe they could help.

Yi Dai personally loaded the gunpowder onto the carriage and escorted it off.

At the same time, Yunyang's army was also hurrying and heading this way. Ever since the zombies ignored Yunyang's army and broke through from other routes, Juanbai had not slept well for many nights. When he was in Wangdong Camp, he fought with recklessness. Now that the zombies and beasts had left Xiqin, Juanbai's first reaction was not to chase them, but to take advantage of the opportunity and chop down the weird broken tree in Xiqin first!

But then he received intelligence that the zombie tide was heading towards Yunyang, so Juanbai had no other choice. Especially when he received news from He Yue that Li De and A Lai

Ya had already rushed back to Yunyang alone to put out the fire, so he naturally could not delay any longer and immediately ordered the army to go to Yunyang.

In fact, it was fortunate that the Yunyang Army did not penetrate deep into Western Qin, otherwise it would have been in great danger.

"How far are we from the zombie tide?"

Selaginella was riding on his horse and asked the scout who had come back from the front. The scout got off his horse and replied:

"About thirty miles. The zombies have stopped for some reason and have no intention of moving forward for the time being." Takis said to Selaginella:

"It's better to march cautiously. The zombies may turn around and devour us." Selaginella tightened the reins and said seriously:

"Let's march forward. We have no other choice. We have already reached Tiancheng. Yunyang is to the west. We can't delay this battle any longer. The people of Tiancheng can move west to Yunyang, but where can the people of Yunyang move to? Factories, schools, and research institutes are all the hard work of you all for many years. We soldiers can only die, but we cannot die behind Yunyang."

Takis nodded: "That's right... let's march forward."

11. Watch and learn carefully

The Kingdom of Eternal Heaven is like a deep ocean.

As the Lide Society and various forces in the open jointly rule the world, the water seems to have become peaceful. However, as the monsters evolved from the Abyss Church wreak havoc on the world, various forces also appear at the same time and begin a new round of actions.

While the Yunyang people were blocking the tide of zombies in the west, the army of Lord Lingwu also collided head-on with the tide of beasts heading north.

Neither side had much experience. Lingwu's army had never fought against an army composed of wild beasts, and it was also the first time that the army composed of wild beasts had fought against a regular human army.

But they both had experience—experience in killing people, experience in fighting to the death. The wild man in the cup must prove that he was a fire R. Landa Lied understood the reason, and did not retreat before the Lingwu Lord. In the little ghost's illusion before, the Yunyang Army did not gain any advantage from the Lingwu infantry, but was always suppressed. Lied understood the reason, Lingwu Lord

Also clear.

No matter how much training and hard work they put in, the Yunyang Army has only been established for two or three years. Most of the Lingwu Iron Cavalry and Lingwu Infantry have been in the military for generations, and their children have been trained as soldiers since childhood. On the one hand, they have a better foundation, and on the other hand, they often train five to ten times more than Yunyang. This is a truly elite army.

Although they didn't talk in detail, Yu Qingzhao and Lid were thinking about similar issues. She didn't think that these enemies were all that Xi Qin had. Although the intelligent beasts were difficult to deal with, they didn't make Yu Qingzhao feel overwhelmed. The beast tide collided with the 200,000-strong army of Lingwu. Although the front line shifted to the north several times, Yu Qingzhao was able to stabilize the situation.

Yu Qingzhao judged that the woman in charge of Xi Qin must have some tricks up her sleeve.

She also planned to finish the matter quickly and go to Xiqin to investigate the situation. However, when she and Li Weijie Dog h刖麻观BDT2, Matthew, Time Ap, it is possible that Tan Xisu's vanguard troops went all the way south. This is what Li De wrote in the secret letter he sent to Jiang Lianqing: He suspected that Xiaohei and Xiaobai's mother was delaying time by not showing up, or it might be Xiqin

Something unexpected happened in the territory.

Li De hoped that the elite troops of [Po Tian] would go to Xi Qin first to investigate the situation, and Jiang Lianqing would follow with a large army to provide cover and support at any time.

Huang Yan, the leader of the rebel army, was entrusted to stay in the capital, and He Yue temporarily took over Li De's affairs. This "various" naturally refers to various matters in the world. From the perspective of the world, He Yue's prestige is insufficient, but with Huang Yan, these are not a problem. When the Lingwu lord left the capital, no one in the capital could be on par with Huang Yan.

Huang Yan stayed in the capital for another purpose: the army she had might be of great use at a critical moment. The dragons couldn't be completely unaware of such a big event happening in the human territory, but Yu Qingzhao had to dispatch the Lingwu garrison to the south to resist the beast tide, and the entire northeast of Yongtian Kingdom seemed unusually empty. At this time, the army could no longer be sent out, and Huang Yan had to stay there to watch the situation.

She was not alone. The new army that Honglian was training could provide cover. It was not easy to leave the city for a decisive battle, but it was possible to defend the city until other forces came to rescue her. As for the giants, they had no intention of going south for the time being. Even if they did, they would not easily break through Lingwu. Now, almost all the people in Lingwu territory were soldiers.

He Yue, who was supported by Huang Yan, had to deal with the current crisis alone: ​​Yunyang was short of food. The autumn harvest this year could still support it, but with several armies moving out at the same time and a large number of refugees needing to be resettled, Yunyang was already running out of food. This was not something that could be solved by killing a few more corrupt officials. Even if all officials and wealthy families were confiscated, the food would still be in short supply.

A good cook cannot cook without rice, but He Yue now has to have the ability to turn stones into gold and change things from a distance. The heavy burden of the world is on her shoulders. At this moment, He Yue finally understands Wu Mi's helplessness from the bottom of her heart.

Wanze Lord Xihua returned to Wanze Territory. He had to personally guard against the attack of the demons. Among all the races, the demons were the ones who liked to take advantage of the situation the most, because they liked to bully the weak and take advantage of the situation the most. In order to avoid suspicion, he left his son Xihe and his other family members in the capital and returned to Wanze Territory alone.

The officials of the Yunhai faction stopped doing business for the time being and instead focused on raising and transporting food and grass. After Lide killed a group of people last time, they had temporarily learned their lesson. Even if they ran to the Xiqin territory with food and grass and found that the Yunyang army had quietly evacuated, they did not dare to complain too much and could only continue to catch up with the army to deliver food.

On the day when Reed and Alayya fought against the zombie tide, some changes occurred in the Abyss Church.

The Saint of the Abyss Church, Shi Yuan, brought Bishop Sean of the Justice and Peace Council, Bishop Bolai of the Laity Council, Bishop Yi Teng of the Inter-religious Exchange Council, and Bishop Fei Tanli of the State and Family Council into the West Qin Territory. She couldn't wait any longer. Although Shi Yuan knew the whole story, she, like everyone else, knew nothing about the internal affairs of the West Qin Territory.

Lid was fighting against the zombies. Although Shi Yuan believed in his ability, it was useless to take advantage of him. The one who could decide the outcome was that woman. Now that the zombies and beasts were rampant, Shi Yuan knew that the evolution in the West Qin territory must be settled. However, as the second in command of the Abyss Church, she seemed to have been abandoned and no one cared about her.

Not only Shi Yuan, but the twelve bishops of the religious council did not receive any notification. It was as if that woman wanted to abandon her base. Even if it was not for Li De, Shi Yuan had to go to Xi Qin at this time. She wanted to ask that woman in person. At the same time, she still remembered the dream, the dream in which she was pierced through the chest. After thinking it over, Shi Yuan wrote a letter to Li De.

There were only eight words in the letter: But because of you, I have regrets in this life.

She didn't want to care about Lid, but her body wouldn't let her. Even if she wanted to kill Lid a thousand times, she still hoped that he could bring back some news. Meanwhile, Lid finally joined his army in Yunyang. He and Alaya tore the entire corpse tide apart. Alaya gritted her teeth and persisted, but she was exhausted and her sword energy began to show some weakness. At this time, Juanbai led the cavalry and rushed in. When he saw Lid, he was stunned and said loudly:

"Please go first, lord!"

Lid grabbed a spare horse and threw Alayya on it. Before Alayya could speak, Lid said, "It's almost the tenth level. You should take a rest. Give me the sword and watch it carefully!"

Alayya took off the sword from her waist and threw it over. Lid took it and said to Juanbai: "Bring your men and follow me to charge."

12. Encounter

This was not the first time that Lid had demonstrated swordsmanship to Alaya, but before, he had no sword energy at all, so he could only explain it to Alaya or simply make a few sword moves for Alaya to imitate. But now it was different, with the sword in his hand, Lid could show his understanding of the way of the sword with actual actions - the sword is a weapon for killing.

This is different from the way of assassination. Although the way of assassination also focuses on killing, it is an instant burst of concealment to the extreme, and it values ​​speed. The swordsmanship that Lid taught Alaya does not care who the opponent is or how many opponents there are. Even if thousands of troops are rushing towards you, you must fight your way out.

Now Lid held the sword, without any fancy moves, and his aura was extremely restrained. But every time he attacked, he would open a big hole in the monster, or cut off a section of the surging corpses. The Yunyang army followed closely behind, responsible for completing the follow-up attacks, and Lid himself did not look back once.

"A sword is a killing weapon. When you hold a sword, there are enemies in front of you. You have to kill them all to protect the people behind you." This is what Reed said to Alayya before, and now Alayya has a deeper understanding.

She watched Lid attack, and there was a storm hidden in the calm. Countless corpse fragments flew up and brushed against Lid's body. Lid used a very conservative fighting style and was unwilling to waste even a little bit of strength. If Qingyun and Garberd's swordsmanship were open and closed, with the momentum of splitting mountains and breaking seas,

Nalid demonstrates the ultimate craftsmanship

Just like the way a butcher butchers butcher an ox, it is precise and elegant, without any unnecessary details. Laymen cannot understand it, but those who know the business will be amazed.

Reed didn't know how many monsters he had chopped down along the way until a real obstacle appeared in front of him.

The zombies parted to the sides, making way for a path. The mutated humanoids lined up there, and it was still a dark mass. The difference was that this time the opponent was no longer a dumb zombie, but a mutated army with wisdom and strength. Lid turned around and threw the sword in his hand to Alayya, and Yunyang's army also stopped.

At the front of the tide of corpses was a human-shaped mountain of flesh, and the saliva flowing on the ground made a sizzling sound.
