"Brother Yuan, there's so much monster meat. Once we finish it all, I bet no one will ever want to eat meat again."

Looking at the mountain of monster meat, Luo Qingcheng made a joke.

You're overthinking it!

"When people are hungry, it's normal to eat tree bark and grass roots. When they're starving to the extreme, they'll even eat feces!"

Everyone: Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!

Lu Yuan's words made the women around him feel nauseous.

Lu Yuan touched his nose and smiled.

He was genuinely happy. With this monster meat, he could simply marinate it, dry it into jerky, and eat it sparingly.

With the grain in the granary, it would be enough to last for three to five years.

In other words, he will not have to worry about food in the future, as many bases have stopped developing because of a lack of food.

For example, the Tai'an gathering place before.

A single refugee camp accounts for roughly one-third of the population of the entire Tai'an settlement.

The taste of meat marinated and dried is definitely not as good, but it's still much better than nothing.

Moreover, these magical beasts are all of high level, and their meat contains a lot of energy. An ordinary person can get enough energy from eating just two ounces of meat for a whole day.

Moreover, eating more of these foods greatly increases the chance of awakening the Spirit Master class, creating a virtuous cycle.

"Brother Yuan, look! There are fewer monsters now."

Lu Yuan was taken aback and looked into the distance. Sure enough, he could see that the number of magical beasts was significantly less than two days ago.

A surge of joy welled up within me; it seemed that Warcraft was running out of steam.

After all, they don't have any large rifts here, and their numbers are limited. As long as they keep killing, they will eventually kill all these monster zombies.

"Holy crap, how did it just disappear?"

"I want to get more grain!"

Lu Yuan's words were absolutely rude and deserved a beating.

If other settlements found out that Lu Yuan complained about the lack of monsters, they would probably curse him to death.

"Attention everyone, Warcraft is almost over."

"They're likely to retreat. Everyone get ready, and once they do, charge out."

"Don't let them get away."

Without hesitation, Lu Yuan summoned the monster army again. In the past few days, he had not only added all the S-rank monsters to his monster encyclopedia,

He even collected quite a few A-rank and B-rank pets. He had a plan to use a pet army to fight against the entire apocalypse.

Lu Yuan is now on the city wall, holding the Green Dragon Crescent Blade, pointing forward:

"Everyone, follow me and kill!"

"kill"

In an instant, everyone abandoned their firearms, picked up machetes, and charged towards the monster army.

The battle was so fierce that the sky darkened and the sun and moon disappeared, leaving even Lu Yuan exhausted.

They fought their way through the North Gate until they reached Storm Canyon before stopping.

The battle line stretched for more than ten miles, and there were monster corpses everywhere along the way, as well as the corpses of our own people.

What are the casualties?

Lu Yuan asked casually.

"The team's casualties were not high; the main casualties were those spirit masters who were temporarily recruited."

"Another reason is that their level is too low. Another reason is that they don't know how to cooperate and just kill indiscriminately, but it's all within acceptable limits."

Lin Feng offered an explanation.

Lu Yuan patted Lin Feng on the shoulder:

"I'll leave this to you. Collect all the monster and human corpses."

"Give the fallen brothers a proper burial, arrange treatment for the wounded, and I'm going to the South Gate to take a look. This war should be over by now."

The battle at the South Gate is raging, with Ah Chou leading more than 20 Corpse Kings in a fight against the entire horde of corpses.

Ah Chou possesses the skills of defection and leadership. In addition, Ah Chou has refined the essence blood of the Demon Dragon King and has successfully reached the dual S-rank realm.

Therefore, their ability to subvert is even stronger, resulting in the current scene where a group of zombies are attacking each other.

The city, on the contrary, was completely unaffected.

Lu Yuan just watched, chatting casually with Huang Feilong.

Huang Feilong was a great help and made a significant contribution this time. Without Huang Feilong's help, Lu Yuan would not have been very confident about the battle here.

No matter how capable a person is, if they try to do two things at once, they will not only be exhausted, but may also make mistakes.

"It seems the battle can end today. Commander Huang, after the battle, burn all these corpses."

"It's alright now that it's winter, but if it were summer, not to mention the stench of rotting flesh, it could easily cause an epidemic."

Huang Feilong quickly agreed.

Lu Yuan nodded, just about to say a few words to Zhang Qiang, when the sound of helicopter propellers rose in the sky.

Looking up at the sky, two helicopters were flying towards the very center of Taotie City.

Lu Yuan understood; these must be people from Xuanwu City.

However, Lu Yuan discovered a loophole: the defense against the air.

He had only considered attacks from the ground, neglecting enemies from the sky.

For example, these two helicopters were only discovered after flying all the way to Taotie City. What if they were flying magical beasts?

What if the enemy comes to bomb us in fighter jets?

Or what if it's artillery shells or missiles?

Although the chances are slim, they are not nonexistent. It seems that we should discuss a solution after this battle is over.

That is, how to face and defend against enemies from the sky.

Just as Lu Yuan was pondering, Wang Tianhu indeed ran over.

"Reporting to the leader, people from the Xuanwu Base have arrived and request to see you."

Lu Yuan nodded, clearing his mind, and then walked towards the office.

When Lu Yuan arrived at the office, Gong Yuehan was talking to a man in his forties.

Upon seeing Lu Yuan arrive, the man immediately stood up, his attitude quite polite.

"Hello, Brigade Commander Lu, we meet again."

That's right, Lu Yuan had met this person once before, when he first went to see Qian Anguo, and the two had a brief encounter.

He had forgotten his name, but he remembered that his surname was Chen and that he was a staff officer.

"Hello, Staff Officer Chen!"

"Please sit down!"

Staff Officer Chen said thank you, and then got straight to the point.

"Brigade Commander Lu, how is the battle going on Tao Tiecheng's side?"

Lu Yuan didn't hide anything and gave a brief overview of the situation on our side.

Staff Officer Chen's eyes lit up.

"Brigade Commander Lu, I'm here on orders from the commander to come and ask for reinforcements. Xuanwu City is about to fall."

Lu Yuan was somewhat taken aback.

It hasn't been long, but with Xuanwu City's tall walls, advanced weapons, and so many spirit masters and warriors, they've already achieved this.

Logically, this shouldn't be the case!

Lu Yuan's mind raced, and he couldn't quite figure it out.

According to Sheng Tu, in the previous life, Lu Yuan and his group entered the Great Rift about half a month after the Second Great Cataclysm.

But only a week has passed, so there are only two possibilities.

First, Staff Officer Chen deliberately exaggerated the issue.

Secondly, it's possible that the butterfly flapped its wings a few more times, causing some kind of unexpected change.

"Tell me the specifics!"

End of chapter!
