Chapter 667 Chapter 669 Fighting against the Level 7 Monster (2)

"It sounds so real that I almost believed it! It's not easy for the military to recruit a civilian mercenary group. Is there a need to give them such a high military rank?" Zhou Haiyang couldn't help rolling his eyes after hearing what An Lin said.

"Easy? When the Tianhe Mercenary Group was originally in the hands of Ning Qingyun, the major legions stationed in the capital, the various noble families in the capital, including the Ning family, secretly tried to win over several deputy commanders and captains of the Tianhe Mercenary Group. The conditions they offered were very generous, but unfortunately these people were loyal to Ning Qingyun and none of them betrayed the team. Now the secret places are in crisis and the legions are seriously short of soldiers. Those outstanding civilian mercenary groups are all in the military's plan to incorporate them, but there is no civilian mercenary group in the capital that does not have family support behind it. If they really want to incorporate them and send them out to garrison one side, those people in the military will not be able to feel at ease. It happened that Rong Xianxian came from an ordinary family, and President Jingyuan was optimistic about her, so it was understandable that he promised her a high position." Although An Lin was in the army, he was also from a noble family, and he had heard of these things.

"So it really is because of the relationship with the Tianhe Mercenary Group. If that's the case, Rong Xianxian was able to get such a high military rank because of Ning Qingyun. Does that mean she doesn't have any ability? If that's the case, you said that the military just awarded her the rank and sent her here. Are they sending her here to die?" Zhou Haiyang pinched his throat when he said the last sentence, and his voice was very low. If An Lin hadn't listened carefully, he wouldn't have been able to hear it clearly.

"Impossible. If something happens to Rong Xianxian on this battlefield, the military's plan to incorporate the Tianhe Mercenary Group and the Lieyan Mercenary Group will be ruined. The Tianhe Mercenary Group was originally loyal to Ning Qingyun, and now they are also obedient to Rong Xianxian. No one else can do it except her." An Lin shook his head.

"It's such a pity for Ning Qingyun. You said that Ning Qingyun has so many powerful and loyal subordinates, so how could he be tricked into the Yunwu Secret Realm?" Zhou Haiyang had also heard about Ning Qingyun.

"Who would have known that the end of the world would come suddenly? The social environment changed drastically. The two major forces under Ning Qingyun at that time, the Changhe Security Company headed by Huoye Chaiming, and the Tianqing Society headed by Pan Yang, were not in the capital. The Ning family didn't know what means they used to trap Ning Qingyun into the Yunwu Secret Realm. Although he later came out of the secret realm safely, he missed the initial stage of dividing the territory in the capital. Otherwise, based on his deployment in the capital before the end of the world, he should not have fallen into the trap set by Gong Hanyu." An Lin had a serious face and a solemn expression, but Zhou Haiyang heard a hint of regret in his tone.

"What is the physical condition of Ning Qingyun? There was no funeral, and he was not seen walking around. The outside world said that he was seriously injured and bedridden, but his wife did not seek medical treatment for him. Initially, the military doctor sent by the government was turned away. No wonder the Ning family often blocked the door and made trouble." Zhou Haiyang said with some gossip.

An Lin sighed, "Rong Xianxian is an alchemist. If she can't cure Ning Qingyun, then no one else can either. Rong Xianxian's subordinates have been looking for some precious and rare elixirs. I guess they are looking for them to treat Ning Qingyun."

Rong Xianxian, Cui Lie and their group had already entered the tent where Admiral Pei Jia was working. While Zhou Haiyang and Pei Jia were chatting, the white disc in front of them suddenly glowed bright red. When the two saw the strong red light, they simultaneously fired the flares in their hands.

"Bang", two red flares exploded simultaneously above the military camp, casting a glow of fire on the sky above the camp.

After a sharp alarm sounded, an emotionless electronic synthesized voice came from the military camp, "The energy fluctuation of the space crack has reached the highest level so far. The monitoring team has issued a red alert. It is predicted that another level 7 monster may have mistakenly entered this world. The first combat sequence will be dispatched immediately, and the second combat sequence will be ready to fight and listen to orders."

As soon as this electronic synthesized voice fell, a dazzling light suddenly burst out around the originally calm black space crack in the sky. With a "crack", a bolt of lightning struck the clear sky, followed by a "boom" of thunder that came from afar and rushed towards the glowing space crack.

There were lightning and thunder, dark clouds rolling, the lightning was thicker and the thunder was louder. Rong Xianxian and Cui Lie were in Admiral Pei Jia's tent. They walked out of the tent together. Admiral Pei Jia looked up at the situation with an excited look. He said to the adjutant beside him, "Xiang Tao, the last time this happened was when we encountered the level 7 Burning Sky Fire Dragon. Although that battle was thrilling, our gains were also huge. Master Qi Yu used the dragon soul and dragon bones of the level 7 Burning Sky Fire Dragon to refine the level 7 Demon Dragon Armor. With the help of the Demon Dragon Armor, the top combat power among us humans has been greatly improved, which is why we have crushed the counterattacks of the outsiders again and again."

Compared to Admiral Pei Jia's excitement, Xiang Tao looked a little worried, "Admiral, the last time a level seven Burning Sky Fire Dragon mistakenly came here, there was not such a big noise. I think the monster coming this time may be more powerful." Although the level seven Burning Sky Fire Dragon was eventually killed, they also paid a huge price at that time.

As if to verify Xiang Tao's guess, in a branch not far from the black space crack, a huge monster with electric light wrapped around its body roared and fell from the sky, like a mountain crashing to the ground.

"Boom", "Crack", thunder and lightning were heard where the monster landed, as if a net had trapped the monster there. Although the monster was seriously injured due to the impact of the turbulence of time and space, its own strength still exceeded the highest level that this world could accommodate, so it attracted the attack of thunder and lightning.

Under the attack of thunder and lightning, the monster's aura gradually weakened, and the bright red blood dyed the earth red.

When the monster was attacked by lightning, the team responsible for long-range firepower attack had already loaded and stood by. As soon as the lightning stopped, under the command of Admiral Pei Jia, rows of artillery shells dragging flames flew towards the location of the monster.

The shells exploded, and the level seven monster, which seemed to be dying, seemed to be enraged. It opened its mouth and roared, and a gust of wind blew up. All the shells were blown away, and none of them reached the target location.

After two more rounds of attempts, there was still no success. Seeing that long-range fire attacks were ineffective, they had no choice but to resort to close combat.

A team of warriors wearing exoskeleton armor rushed forward carrying shoulder-mounted cannons.
