“Puff! Puff…”
Six huge holes appeared on the giant python's head, and bloody red blood gushed out like water.
"roar--"
But the giant python was only at level 20 after all, and was still intact even after suffering such a serious injury. It roared angrily, and swept its tail fiercely at the three phoenixes, knocking them back dozens of meters.
Fortunately, the three phoenixes were not seriously injured and were just knocked away.
Seeing this, the giant python ignored them and suddenly turned its head to look at Lu Ping.
Lu Ping cursed in his heart, then waved his hand, and the God-Slaying Brick suddenly came out, whistling and smashing towards the giant python.
"Bang!"
The giant python was not afraid at all and stretched out its claws to grab the divine brick.
"clang!"
A huge metal collision sound was heard, and the giant python's claws were broken by the magic bricks.
Apparently, the giant python was a little careless and ignored the power of the divine brick.
The giant python felt pain, its eyes suddenly turned blood red, and it rushed towards Lu Ping madly.
"careful!"
Seeing this, Yun Yao shouted and then used her flying sword to shoot at the giant python.
Lu Ping also waved his hand, and the God-Slaying Brick flew back into his hand, and a flying sword also shot out.
Xingyao and Yueyao followed closely behind and also released their flying swords.
"Bang!"
"call out!"
"clang!"
The four flying swords hit the target almost at the same time, shooting into the giant python's body and piercing it through.
But the giant python was so huge that even after being hit by several swords, it continued to rush towards Lu Ping and others, as if it was completely unaware of the pain.
Lu Ping was shocked. This giant python was stronger than any humanoid creature he had encountered before.
If you want to kill it, you can only hit its vital parts, such as the head and the seven-inch point.
Lu Ping immediately waved his hand, and the magic brick flew out again, hitting the giant python's head hard.
"boom……"
With a loud bang, although the god-slaying brick was bounced away, the giant python's head was obviously dented, and it was obvious that it had suffered serious injuries.
Lu Ping took the opportunity to jump high and chopped down fiercely with the Qingming Sword in his hand.
The giant python tried to dodge, but three phoenixes suddenly appeared and grabbed it with six sharp claws at the same time, causing the giant python to temporarily slow down.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Ping's Qingming Sword stabbed into the wound on the giant python's head.
Then a huge force surged into the giant python's body, and its brain suddenly splattered and its body collapsed limply.
Seeing this scene, Lu Ping breathed a sigh of relief, it was finally done.
This level 20 giant python is indeed difficult to deal with. If it weren't for the three phoenixes restraining it, it would be almost impossible to kill it.
But now, this guy is finally dead.
“Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!”
At this moment, the three phoenixes made clear and melodious chirps, then surrounded the giant python and began to peck at it, as if they liked the python meat very much.
Seeing this, Lu Ping ignored them. It was normal for birds to like snake meat. Instead, he returned with the Yun Yao sisters.
"Hubby, we were so scared just now. Are you okay?"
From a distance, Xia Mo and others came up and asked.
"I'm fine and not injured. You don't have to worry." Lu Ping replied with a smile.
Afterwards, everyone returned to the shelter to wash up and rest.
Lu Ping had been fighting all night and was exhausted.
There were only a few scattered animals left in the herd, so Lu Ping didn't have to worry.
After returning to the shelter, Lu Ping and others immediately washed up, had a simple breakfast and went back to the house to rest.
In the evening, everyone came out of the room in high spirits and went to the living room to watch the news.
"Latest news: As of 4:00 PM, the battle on the Qing coast defense line has ended. Currently, fighting on the northern and southern defense lines is still ongoing."
"According to the military, the defense of each city has been successful, and the beasts that descended upon our northern region have been largely wiped out."
"According to the latest news, more than twenty giant demonic caves have descended upon our southern region, and the military is considering using hydrogen bombs."
"Currently, construction of thirty base cities is underway across our country, and the second line of defense is also underway. It's expected to be completed in another six months. The government has stated that the construction of the base cities and the second line of defense is intended to prepare for the worst-case scenario."
…
As the news broadcast continued, Lu Ping's expression turned from bright to dark.
Lu Ping knew about the construction of the base city, but he knew nothing about the construction of the second line of defense.
Therefore, when he heard that the second line of defense was about to be built, Lu Ping felt uneasy.
The construction of the second line of defense clearly shows that the government is preparing for the worst, or that the government has recognized the existence of the danger and has begun to make relevant preparations.
If this is true, then if the situation gets bad in the future, it is a foregone conclusion that Donghai City will be abandoned.
After all, Donghai City is too close to the border. If the beast tide breaks through the defense line, Donghai will definitely be the first to bear the brunt.
Afterwards, Lu Ping explained the matter to Tang Qi and asked her to help contact his father to find out the details.
After hearing this, Tang Qi immediately realized the seriousness of the matter and called Tang Haoran.
After Tang Haoran received a call from his daughter, he pondered for a long time.
In the end, Tang Haoran told Tang Qi that Lu Ping's guess was correct, and the government's purpose of building a second line of defense was to shrink the defense.
In the past year, in order to resist the attacks of the beasts, the Qing Kingdom has consumed thirty years of material reserves.
This speed far exceeds the original estimate. If it continues like this, Qing Kingdom’s material reserves will only last for one year at most.
Therefore, the government intends to shrink its defense line.
Donghai City is one of the most important cities in Qing Kingdom. It should be retained as a base city, but Donghai City is located too far forward. If a beast tide attacks, Donghai City will definitely not be able to defend itself.
Finally, Tang Haoran told Tang Qi that when the next wave of beasts arrived, Donghai City would most likely fall, and asked Lu Ping to be prepared.
When Tang Qi heard the news, he was immediately panicked.
She never expected this to be the outcome.
Tang Qi's phone was on speakerphone the entire time, so Lu Ping and others could hear it.
Like Tang Qi, Xia Mo and the others were also extremely surprised. No one expected the situation to evolve to this extent.
"Husband, what should we do?" Xia Mo asked anxiously.
"Don't panic. Even if the East China Sea falls, we don't have to worry. We just need to notify your father."
"But considering such a big thing, your second uncle will definitely tell your father."
"Well, I'll call my father now, and if that doesn't work, I'll ask them to move in with us."
Xia Mo nodded and then called her father.
"Xiaomo, what's wrong?"
The call was connected and Xia Guohua's voice came through.
"Dad, it's like this..."
Xia Mo briefly recounted the whole story to her father.
"Oh, your second uncle vaguely mentioned this to me last time, but I didn't take it seriously. Now I realize that this is the case."
Xia Guohua said with sudden realization.
"Dad, what are you going to do next?"
"Are you going to stay with your second uncle in the capital, or moving in with us?"
Xia Mo asked quickly.
"No, I'm not going anywhere. I'm safe in the shelter." Xia Guohua said firmly.
