Abyss, red scorched earth.
Despite the large space restriction, Xia Zhi was still teleported outside the Steel City.
Because of the last wave of demon counterattacks, there have been no large-scale conflicts nearby recently, so it looks prosperous.
However, these are all superficial phenomena, and only the Steel City suffered little loss in the last wave of conflict.
Blue Star built 50 cities in the abyss, and 11 of them were directly destroyed last time, which means that nearly 500 million people died in this battle.
One can imagine how cruel this large-scale war is. It is like a large meat grinder, ruthlessly harvesting lives.
But for the future of Blue Star, this loss is necessary.
Although the population has decreased, the number of strong people has increased. During this period of time, at least nearly a thousand ninth-level professionals have advanced.
As for advancement to the Sanctuary level, it all depends on personal talent.
But with such a huge base number, even if only one-tenth of the professionals advance to the Holy Realm, it is still an amazing number.
However, if you want to complete the advancement, you must first survive.
Flying towards the city, Xia Zhi used his ability to create a data watch and passed the inspection without any hindrance.
Looking at the bustling city, the number of people is much greater than before because of the arrival of reinforcements.
"I wonder what these people would do if they knew that the Son of the Abyss wasn't here..."
Coming back to his senses, Xia Zhi muttered softly.
To put it bluntly, these people are just cannon fodder.
Although he brought the Son of the Abyss back to Blue Star, he couldn't tell anyone about this matter.
Now that both sides are unaware of the situation, the fighting can only continue, and it is expected to intensify in the future.
After all, the importance of the Son of the Abyss to the Abyss is self-evident.
Unless the Steel City is destroyed, the demons will not give up.
But the Son of the Abyss was his child, and it was definitely impossible to hand him over. He could only try his best to fight for a chance to survive for the people of this city.
Just as Xia Zhi was daydreaming, a graceful figure slowly walked towards him.
After seeing the person coming, Xia Zhi was furious.
"You ran away pretty quickly last time. After all, we slept in the same bed. Are you going to just leave me like that?"
Xia Zhi walked up and started to sneer.
But he was also a little confused. Could this guy have advanced to the Holy Realm so quickly?
"What are you talking about?"
Qianying frowned, a puzzled look on her face.
Xia Zhi wanted to say something, but he saw an acquaintance coming behind the other person, and then he looked at the person in front of him.
"So it's Yanran. I made a mistake, I made a mistake."
Scratching his head, Xia Zhi said with an apologetic smile.
And the person walking behind Zhou Yanran was Zhou Zheng.
However, Zhou Zheng's face looked unhappy, as if someone owed him one or two hundred thousand.
"Where's Qingcheng?"
Zhou Zheng asked Xia Zhi as soon as he came up.
Last time, Yue Qingcheng ran away because of Yanran's indecision.
For this reason, he specially applied to garrison in the Steel City, just to teach Yue Qingcheng and Xia Zhi a good lesson!
"Um, she's not back yet?"
"We parted ways at Luoqian Harbor, and now I don't know where she is."
Xia Zhi spread his hands innocently and said.
He finally realized that this old guy had come with bad intentions.
Isn't it just stealing a few 'holy pregnancy fruits'? Is it necessary to chase him to the abyss?
"Boy, give me the rest of the Holy Pregnancy Fruit, or I'll break both of your legs today!"
Zhou Zheng said with a gloomy expression.
For some reason, when he saw Xia Zhi's innocent look, he wanted to slap Xia Zhi twice.
No one who can hang out with Yue Qingcheng is a good person!
Last time he thought the two of them were a good match, but now he knows that they are like snakes and rats from the same nest, working together for evil!
"Uh, I'm really gone. Last time, I gave it to the warehouse janitor."
Xia Zhi said with a sad face and a look of grievance.
There was indeed one more 'Holy Pregnancy Fruit', but that didn't stop him from keeping it in his collection.
If your pet needs it for evolution someday, it will probably be difficult to find it.
Besides, he did give one to the gatekeeper Zhang Wei last time, so it couldn't be considered a lie, and it could just be a good way to divert the conflict.
"Really?"
Zhou Zheng stared at Xia Zhi's eyes, trying to see something.
But after several months of growth, Xia Zhi's skin had become as thick as a city wall, making it difficult for others to see any clues.
After watching for a while, Zhou Zheng could only shake his head helplessly.
After all, he is the person his granddaughter has taken a fancy to. Moreover, they are now in the abyss and a battle will break out soon. He can't cripple Xia Zhi at this time.
"Let's go, you're back just in time. We were just about to discuss attacking the demon's lair."
Zhou Zheng talked as he walked, while Xia Zhi followed behind him and listened.
Attacking the demon city is a good idea, as it will be beneficial to his upgrade plan.
Otherwise, if I just go hunting by myself, I don’t know how long it will take to reach the ninth level.
What he didn't expect was that the Steel City did not focus on defense, but instead wanted to directly destroy the nearby Demon City.
But then he thought about it and understood that the Steel City was located on a plain, and once the war started, it would end up being besieged.
If we can capture the nearby demon city, not only will we have a good geographical location, but it will also be much more difficult for the demons to gather troops.
After all, the other demon cities are far away, and it takes a lot of effort to provide support, which is enough for the Steel City to make sufficient preparations.
Otherwise, if this continues, the demons' next attack will be even more fierce.
