The next day, the Fortress City Military Mission Hall was opened, and Bai Mo and Lingling immediately received the biggest mission -
Clean up the Shaqu River Plain.
The Shaqu River Plain refers to the wide and flat desert wasteland on both sides of the Shaqu River.
In addition, they also took on another equally difficult task of finding a way to overcome the gravity of the Shaqu River.
Anyway, everyone can take on the task, so there is no difference between one or two.
"Brother, Lop Nur is to the west of the Shaqu River Basin. There are many monsters in it. What should we do?" Bai Hongfei asked excitedly.
Both tasks are difficult, but once completed, the benefits are enormous.
"Leave the demons to me. You are responsible for taking people to occupy the place I cleared out as quickly as possible and set up a fear barrier." Bai Mo said.
To set up a mental fear barrier with the Bai family's mark in the cleared place is to mark a place with their mark.
Generally, law-abiding people will not approach when they see this.
At the same time, it is also to intimidate the surrounding demons not to get close. This is a kind of mental suggestion, enough to support for a period of time and be used for handover with the military magician.
"Okay, the family brought a lot of mind and earth mages this time."
Bai Hongfei nodded and had no objection to this.
He knew Bai Mo's strength. These people in the family were not enough to defeat him with just one summoned beast.
Therefore, their role is to provide logistics support for Bai Mo, not to help in fighting.
Strength sometimes means the right to speak. With Bai Mo taking the lead, no one from the Bai family will disobey.
Bai Mo nodded slightly. Clearing out the marked monsters was important, but he also needed to understand his competitors.
The plain in the Shaqu River basin is very large, most of which is occupied by the Pseudo-Demon. However, the area occupied by the Pseudo-Demon is the most important area in the entire basin.
Everyone can take on this task, but not everyone will. He needs to know how many competitors he has.
"Lingling, how many people have accepted the two missions we accepted?"
"The missions provided by the military mages are monitored in real time. Once you accept a mission but fail to reach the corresponding area, you will be restricted from receiving the mission."
Lingling first mentioned a rule that no one cared about, and then said,
"Both of these tasks are not easy. The center of the Shaqu River is the terrifying Lop Nur. There are also some powerful monsters living in the north and south sections. Generally, those who don't have the strength dare not accept them. Currently, 15 copies have been accepted."
"Except for ours, most of these 15 teams are from aristocratic families, and there are also a few mercenary groups. However, except for the Mu family and the Zu family, the others are not a concern."
Hearing this, Bai Mo frowned. It was reasonable that the Mu family's ancestral home also chose this place.
At this time, Zhao Manyan said, "We can mark such a large area of Shaqu River Plain. There must be some places that have been cleared by others. How will the mission be calculated then?"
"The military will make a comprehensive judgment based on the importance of the cleared area, the number of demons, and the area of the marked land. The mission will allocate different merits based on the different shares of each team."
Lingling glanced at her. As expected, Zhao Manyan, as the son of a wealthy family, was very sensitive when it came to interests.
"If you want to submit a mission alone, this kind of large-scale mission can only be done after you have occupied the territory and convinced others to give up."
Hearing this, Bai Mo nodded, as did Mu Nujiao and Zhao Manyan. As for how to convince them, that was a personal matter.
“The military is really good at shifting the blame. All we have to do is wait and see the results,” Zhao Manyan said.
"That's true, but they don't have the energy to watch the process. We are doing development, not competing." Lingling said.
"How many people came to the Mu family's ancestral home?" Mu Nujiao suddenly asked.
"I'm not sure, but there shouldn't be a small amount. I'll check." Lingling shook her head.
"No matter what, they are also a noble family. There must be more people coming than your Bai family. The mission does not limit the number of people."
"That's right, but there is another possibility. We need to act faster."
Bai Mo's eyes flickered slightly as he stared at the list of people tasked with clearing out the demons from the Shaqu River Plain on the screen of his phone.
"What's possible?" Zhao Manyan was puzzled.
"I'm worried that the teams on the list that have accepted the mission may have affiliated forces of the Mu family or the Zu family. Once they attack on multiple fronts, it will be difficult for us to gain any benefits. Their progress in occupying the area will be faster than mine."
Bai Mo said lightly that aristocratic families have their own foundation. If he were Zu Xiangtian, he would use the power of the family and let those affiliated families send people to complete this task together and make more efforts.
At that time, all marked places will be handed over to the owner.
"It's possible, but ordinary families can't provide so many people." Mu Nujiao frowned, and became a little worried about the next action.
Bai Hongfei and the people from the Bai family who followed behind him silently were also instantly overwhelmed by sorrow.
Bai Mo saw all of this, but he was not in a hurry, because no one was as good as him at cleaning up garbage.
"Don't worry. According to the established plan, we will immediately occupy the most important Gaosha Mountain in the Shaqu River Plain. The fortress city is far away from there, and there is also the Shaqu River between us. We need to move quickly and occupy the important areas before the Muzu and Zu families. Then you just need to focus on building the fear barrier and follow me."
While they were talking, everyone had already left the fortress city. Bai Mo stopped, dark air currents moved around his body, and a pair of wings spread out like a divine bird in the square appeared.
"Go up, let's fly over!"
The distance between the fortress city and the Shaqu River is nearly 100 kilometers, and it would be a waste of time to travel on foot.
With Jingwei, they can spend much less time on the journey than other forces.
Bai Mo was the first to step onto Jingwei's back, and the others followed immediately. It didn't take long for them to reach the destination after covering a distance of a hundred miles.
Gaosha Mountain is the highest sand dune within the Shaqu River and has no name.
But as the only high ground within a thousand miles, even though it is only a little over two hundred meters, its location is also very important.
At the same time, it is the most central part of the Shaqu River that runs from north to south, and is also close to the center of Lop Nur, making it naturally suitable for building a fortress and monitoring the movements of the entire desert.
According to the information he secretly learned from Nan Jue, the Western Military Mages planned to study and analyze the gravity of the Shaqu River, and then use it to make the gravity of the Shaqu River flow and become a magnetic levitation high-speed channel.
Then, as long as the Northwest Army wizards build a fortress on Gaosha Mountain, they can rely on the Shaqu River to support the north and south and contain the center of the desert.
Therefore, this is undoubtedly the most important place.
The whole sand hill was huge, with golden sand piled very high. As soon as Jingwei landed, the whole sand dune became restless.
The sand waves rolled, the broken sand flew, and yellow-brown plant roots poked out from under the sand, like the devil's hands, and the long spears of hell shot and pierced through.
As a type of pseudo-demon, each of the Shabu pseudo-demon is an extremely difficult creature to deal with. This can be seen from the fact that there are no living creatures except them within an area of dozens of kilometers.
But even though these monsters relied on their large numbers, they were no match for Jingwei.
The howling gale formed a flowing wind shield that covered Jingwei. All the plant roots that howled with terror hit it and were all bounced away. Some were even torn apart directly by the violent wind.
"Jingwei!"
Jingwei did not let them go so easily. As her body landed on the ground, the dark wind that originally appeared as a storm shield immediately swept into hundreds of wind blades as long as an arm.
The wind blades fell into the sand and dust like a hail of bullets, but the body of the Sand Demon, as a plant, was deeply rooted in the sand, and the thick sand provided the best protection.
Even the attack of the Supreme Lord could not harm the Sand Demon hiding under the sand.
"Plant-type monsters are very difficult to deal with, and the Sand Demon is no exception. It's buried underground. The one that attacked us just now might have been just the roots of one Sand Demon, but it could also be several."
"That is to say, there may be one or several Sand Demons hiding under this sand hill. They are connected together to support this sand hill." Lingling said.
Zhao Manyan crossed his arms and looked thoughtful. "Then what should we do? These guys' attacks are not very strong, at the level of small commanders, but how can we get them up from below and kill them?"
"Tsk tsk, this mission is really troublesome. There are actually fifteen teams taking it."
Hearing this, several people ignored his chattering and became alert because Bai Mo had captured Jingwei.
Jingwei is not suitable for such a thankless task that would require a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
For a creature that flies in the sky, it's somewhat inappropriate to ask it to dig in the ground.
"Castle of Light!"
Zhao Manyan summoned a magic castle to wrap everyone up and block the next attack from the dust.
"roar!!!!!"
At this moment, a terrifying roar resounded out. Zhao Manyan felt his hair stand on end, as if a tiger was staring at him. He almost fell to his knees.
Bai Hongfei and a group of Bai family mages who were not far away were so scared that they crawled on the ground, and those who were better off were trembling with fear.
The roar contains the power to shock the soul, which is a racial ability that every tiger possesses.
It was just like how humans can think and make tools. As the sound waves spread, roots from all directions that were attacking like underground pythons immediately stopped.
Just before they were about to fall again, one by one they made a heavy cracking sound.
I saw countless roots of trees cracked one by one, as if they were crushed by some heavy force.
"Big Orange, pull out the stuff down there!"
Bai Mo sat on the giant tiger's head, just like sitting on the balcony of a tall building. Looking down, the entire sand dune looked like a higher mound, and Zhao Manyan and the Bai family were like ants on this mound.
In front of an earth-based ruler, the Sand Demon hiding itself in the deep sand is as ridiculous as a fish hiding in the water near a predator.
"Snoring~~~"
The Divine Dust Tiger snored, but to Zhao Manyan and the others it sounded like the howling of wind and thunder.
He raised his huge claws and slapped the sand hill that was several hundred meters high. Not a single grain of sand was splashed, but the entire mountain was changing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Dark golden light spread from where the tiger's claws landed, and in a blink of an eye it covered the entire sand hill.
Lingling and the other three who had just arrived on Daju's back could see clearly that the dark golden sand hill seemed to have turned into a golden sculpture. It squirmed like a sponge, and a huge irregular net composed entirely of yellow-brown roots and vines rolled out of the sand hill.
The big net is cylindrical in shape, and by the smell one can tell that it is formed by five sand-buster pseudo-demons entangled together.
As soon as it appeared, the combination of the Shabu and the pseudo-demon immediately let out a terrifying scream. Its whole body opened up like a hedgehog, and vines, branches, and wooden roots shot towards Bai Mo and Da Ju like a hail of bullets.
The throat, heart, eyebrows and other vital points are all the focus of attack by the pseudo-terrifying demon.
Bai Hongfei and his companions who were at the feet of the Divine Dust Tiger were safer, as no attack could affect them.
Bai Mo didn't move. He had another purpose for coming here, which was to test Daju's fighting ability.
The big orange man who possesses the spring power will not run out of magic energy and strength, and is extremely powerful, but he does not know how powerful a monarch-level divine dust tiger is.
“Roar~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!!!”
A loud roar came from the mouth of the Divine Dust Tiger, and the pair of dark golden pupils seemed like those of an emperor, filled with anger towards those who were disrespectful.
This roar seemed like a call, and all the fine sands in the sand hill began to flow. They seemed to have intelligence, and the dark golden sands flew up like a reverse torrent, transforming into five long and narrow rock and sand blades that suddenly rushed forward!
The sand blade did not go anywhere else. It was like the claw marks torn by the God of Earth, falling sharply and majestically on the collection of five sand-terrifying pseudo-demons. The branches and roots along the way were like foam, shattering as soon as they touched it!
Boom boom boom!!!
A series of huge noises rang out, and the collective of five sand-horrible pseudo-demons suddenly split apart, shattering into pieces of fallen wood, splashing to other places on the sand hill.
The terrifying claw marks still had power, falling into the desert a hundred meters away, leaving grooves large enough to accommodate trucks.
The bodies of those pseudo-monsters fell on the sand near the sand hill and were immediately pulled away by roots that emerged from the sand.
This horrifying scene stopped Zhao Manyan, who was originally planning to go down the mountain for a walk.
"Oh my god, so many! One next to the other?!"
"If the camouflage ability of the Shabu Pseudo-Demon is discovered, it will not be considered powerful. The reason why the Shabu Pseudo-Demons here are difficult to deal with is because there are too many of them." Lingling said.
"Begin to build a fear barrier and follow my lead."
As Bai Mo spoke, he had already let Daju step out of the sand hill.
A simple mental fear barrier or wall is not difficult to build. It only requires an earth mage to cast the earth wall, and then a mental mage to carve the mental magic patterns.
The Bai family is not short of earth magicians, and after obtaining a part of the Parthenon white magic inheritance, the Bai family is also intentionally recruiting and training mind magicians. Therefore, there are about ten mind magicians in the team, which is enough for use.
In fact, there is nothing else in this area except the desert and the pseudo-terrorist demons under the desert.
This layer of mental fear wall is just a mark to indicate the presence of people, and secondly to guard against possible demons, so it is only useful if it is hastily arranged.
Riding the Divine Dust Tiger, Bai Mo began to head south, while Mu Nujiao, with Zhao Manyan, Lingling, and Feng Ling, headed north.
They planned to split their troops into two groups. The first two directions would expand the territory, and he wanted to take over all the places where the pseudo-terrible demons existed.
Because this is the most important thing.
And, we have to do it before the Mu and Zu family teams arrive.
The huge figure of the Divine Dust Tiger walked on the desert without causing any sound or shock waves, and it was so light that it seemed as if its weight did not exist.
With every step taken, the desert within a mile in radius would turn dark gold. All the territory that turned dark gold was the territory of the Divine Dust Tiger.
Within its territory, its control over the land is absolute, and it can expel any living creature within it.
So, all the huge sand-monsters that looked like thousand-year-old trees underground were forced out from under the ground by Daju. Every pseudo-monster that was forced out of the sand would be destroyed by Bai Mo's storm in the first time.
He wanted to be efficient, so Daju was responsible for taking the monster out of the box.
The whole process was extremely smooth and the coordination between the two was as simple as workers on an assembly line.
There are many opponents in the desert, Bai Mo is not afraid that Daju has no enemies.
On the other side, although Mu Nujiao and her team were not as fast as Bai Mo, their actions in eliminating the Shabu pseudo-demons were also well organized.
With the help of the Wind Spirit and Zhao Manyan's tortoise shell defense, the attacks of the Sand Demon could not cause any immediate damage to them.
Then Mu Nujiao will be able to sense the location of the pseudo-demon under the desert through the power of plants.
The rest is easy.
"Master, I have found out that the Bai family is led by Bai Mo this time, and Bai Hongfei is also here. In addition, they have a senior officer in the Western Army Mage Corps, Bai Zangfeng, who is a military commander."
A man with a weathered face said to Zu Xiangtian, who was sitting on the back of a camel, "There are another hundred mages from the Bai family coming with them, and their cultivation is at least mid-level. They also chose the mission in the Shaqu River Plain."
"Haha, when will it be the turn of a small Bai family to get involved in this inland area?!"
After hearing what this subordinate said, Zu Xiangtian couldn't help but sneer, looked around at his 500 subordinates, and said:
"The noble family is weak. A mere 100 people dare to get involved in the Shaqu River. They overestimate their own capabilities. I will let them know what the general trend is!"
At the end, Zu Xiangtian's eyes were fierce. He couldn't defeat the opponent himself, and he didn't believe that his family couldn't defeat the opponent either.
"Notify the Cheetah Mercenary Group and the third, second, and fifth squads to occupy the Shawang River Plain with all their strength and wipe out the demons!"
"yes!"
Coincidentally, on the road a few thousand meters away, there was also a mighty team of several hundred people. Mu Feiluan, with a proud look in his eyes, listened quietly to the report of his subordinates.
"Our main opponent is the Zu family. Don't worry about the others. But we need to give the Bai family a beating. If you see anyone from them, don't hold back."
"yes!"
There is no civilization in resource development and competition. Military mages don't even care. Their attitude of only looking at the results is evident.
Therefore, Mu Feiluan had no qualms about eliminating the small fry he disliked.
Glancing at the eight hundred Mu family mages following behind him, he frowned and looked towards the vast desert ahead.
"How long will it take us to get there?"
"Elder, at our current speed, it will take at least a day and a night to reach the Shaqu River."
The subordinate in white lowered his head and said, "The Wind Camel Beast is already the most advanced demon in the desert. If we want it to be faster, we can only let the mages in the team use magic."
Hearing this, Mu Feiluan waved his hand. It would only take some time. He was not worried that some more mobile teams would get ahead.
Eight hundred mages, including two super-class and three hundred high-class ones, are enough for him to quickly take over the entire plain. The only people he needs to pay attention to are the people from his ancestral family.
Of course, he didn't know that Bai Mo had more than a hundred people with him and their mobility was very strong.
"I want to walk from south to north, and from day to night~"
As night fell, Bai Mo hummed a leisurely tune as he returned to the vicinity of the sand hill. At this moment, the location of the Bai family's territory marker had expanded to a radius of ten kilometers with the sand hill as the center.
To the east, he was about to touch the west bank of the Shaqu River, and the entire Shaqu River Plain, within 20 kilometers centered on the sand mountain, had been cleared by him. According to the information from the demon detector, there were only a dozen kilometers of territory left where the Shabu pseudo-demon existed.
Of course, it is not ruled out that the Shabu pseudo-demon follows the principle of flowing from high pressure to low pressure, and moves from densely populated areas thirty kilometers away to areas within thirty kilometers and ten kilometers away.
But the Bai family’s large team is enough to deal with these scattered monsters, and they can’t let him do everything.
Bai Mo should have continued to expand and try to clear out the central area occupied by the Shabu pseudo-demon as soon as possible.
But considering that the Bai family's team had been working all day and was tired, he rushed back to cheer everyone up.
Most capitalists only make empty promises and make conditions when they cheer people up.
Bai Mo is different, he only comes for practical purposes and he starts singing for everyone directly.
The song is good. After listening to it, no one could sleep. Their originally exhausted spirits became a hundred times more excited, and they could fight for another three hundred rounds.
This is the inspiring power of the requiem, which restores and lifts everyone's spirits.
In an instant, under the bright moon, the hundreds of people in the Bai family began to build a wall of fear in full swing.
Bai Mo is not an evil capitalist. They took advantage of Jingwei's convenience to arrive at the battlefield ahead of time, so they naturally want to seize the advantage.
Monsters are also part of the results. All the monsters are gone, even though some places he hasn't marked have been occupied by others.
But in terms of comprehensive score, he is also far ahead.
How does the saying go? To weaken the enemy is to strengthen yourself.
After humming the song, Bai Mo changed his direction and walked north this time, first expanding one kilometer, and then moving counterclockwise south to cover an area of one kilometer.
Kilometer after kilometer, the second sunset came quietly, and the terrifying thunder and lightning smashed the last pseudo-demon to pieces.
Bai Mo turned around and looked at the endless yellow sand behind him with a satisfied smile.
The number of pseudo-monsters destroyed along the way was quite large, more than 8,000 in total, and among them, their leaders and generals were intertwined.
If these things were not connected to each other, they would always come out in large numbers.
In addition, plant-type monsters are difficult to move, so it is not easy to eliminate them in a short period of time.
The most abundant harvest was soul essence. He fed all the earth-type stars produced after being promoted to the super-level with warrior-level soul essence, and strengthened the earth-type super-level magic by the way.
Most of the harvested essence was used up at once, the rest was saved for Daju's soul-binding talent, and the rest was left in the soul refining pot.
Standing by the Shaqu River, feeling the tremendous gravity within, he was also very curious about how this gravity was generated.
The dusk and the setting sun could not help but stir up his feeling of mental fatigue.
After a day and night of continuous high-intensity fighting, the magic never stopped.
Although he has enough magic power and a high spiritual realm, his spirit will eventually become tired.
Musical encouragement can inspire others, but it cannot inspire him.
"I'll close my eyes for a moment, and you look at me."
Bai Mo said softly after looking at the big orange beside him.
Just after he finished speaking, his pupils suddenly shrank and he looked towards the originally calm Shaqu River.
The thousand-meter-long river channel that could distort even the dusk suddenly collapsed, and a huge hand like a mountain stretched out, rushing up to the clouds, as if it could cover the sky, and slapped it with a majestic aura! (End of this chapter)
