Under the cover of night, the beastman's army quietly approached Yue Baiting.
"Everyone, please pay attention. Once you arrive at the designated location, please stay where you are."
The operation commander's orders echoed in the minds of the regular army soldiers.
Beneath the soldiers' hair, tiny threads of insect nests cling to their scalps.
This unique communication method of the Zerg hive species was flexibly used by the Orcs and became an important channel for them to transmit information.
Unlike other races, this communicator transmits information through psychic fluctuations.
This method of communication not only ignores the psychic disorder in the battlefield environment, but also has excellent confidentiality.
The only two disadvantages are that production is difficult, resulting in low production capacity.
And if soldiers are forcibly implanted, they will most likely die from the body's rejection.
Therefore, the Orcs and Zerg lived in peace for decades, and the Zerg's communication network only barely covered part of the army in various Orc territories.
However, the convenience that this communication network brings to military command is obvious.
The garrison troops only reached the river bank when all the regular troops that encircled Yue Baiting from the rear arrived at the designated ambush point.
According to the current progress, it will take at least until the second half of the night to completely block the river.
Naturally, the regular army soldiers also had to hide in the bushes until late at night.
The thin fog in the mountains began to spread, gradually enveloping the soldiers who were either crawling in the grass or hiding in the treetops.
Wisps of mist began to enter the bodies of these beasts through their respiratory tracts.
In an instant, these soldiers felt an inexplicable, slight irritation rising in their hearts.
This feeling didn't last long and disappeared almost in the next second.
Everyone's attention was on Yue Baiting in the distance.
Therefore, no one cares about the fleeting feeling of irritation in their heart.
And this feeling of irritability will cost them their lives when the war breaks out.
…
In an underground mine somewhere in Yuebaiting.
“Ka-ka-ka…”
The fine sounds of cracking, healing and friction came one after another.
It was impossible to see what was happening in the dark mine. Only the vague movement of the heron revealed the identity of the figure in the mine.
Zi Sui's body is absorbing energy without reservation at this moment.
Most of this surging energy comes from the crystals of flesh and blood.
That was the energy crystal formed after he refined it. Even if he absorbed a large amount, it would not harm his body.
With sufficient energy, the evolution and iteration of RC cells began to accelerate rapidly.
Old cells will also automatically wither and die to make room and return some energy.
During this process, the brain cells also need to be renewed.
However, the brain is the most sophisticated organ of an intelligent creature after all.
The replacement speed will be much slower, and you will need to focus most of your attention on it to ensure that no mistakes are made.
Therefore, Zi Sui is now unable to easily control the movement of his body.
However, he still discovered the orc army.
After all, feather powder is scattered all over the mountains around the mine. If the beastmen want to surround Yue Baiting, they will inevitably pass by here.
It would be hard for him not to notice.
Isn't this a coincidence? I was so sleepy that someone gave me a pillow.
As Zi Sui thought about this, he separated some of his energy, and the coverage area of the feather powder began to slowly expand.
The feather powder is stained with the poison of [Bone Cancer].
Once inside an organism, the toxin begins to act on command, making the organism irritable and bloodthirsty.
In this way, the originally orderly battle situation will be completely disrupted and become chaotic.
Creatures that inhale feather dust will kill each other uncontrollably under the influence of the toxin.
The number of casualties will continue to snowball.
The flesh, blood, and souls of those who died on the battlefield will be transformed into flesh and blood crystals.
It became the nourishment for Zi Sui, nourishing him to continuously increase his strength.
…
Under the night sky, the central avenue of Yuebaiting is quiet and silent.
In a building next to the avenue, an old man woke up at night, got up, turned on the light, and then went to the toilet.
Maybe people sleep less as they get older. After coming back from the toilet, the old man found that he had insomnia again.
He sighed, walked to the study, took out the account book and started looking at it.
The account clearly records the rent payments of several other households in the building, as well as the income from his fruit stall on the first floor.
Obviously, he is the owner of this building.
However, the dense numbers in the account book revealed something was wrong.
Looking closely, it turned out that no less than twenty families lived in this four-story building.
There are fragmentary rent payment records for more than fifty people.
That's right, here the rent is even based on the number of people living there.
Because of this, the rent that the elderly can receive every month is quite considerable.
This made it okay for the small fruit stall he opened downstairs on a whim to make ends meet.
After a moment, he checked the account book again.
Recently, the number of outsiders has increased, which has brought him a lot of income, which makes the old man feel particularly good.
"ha--"
Checking the accounts is indeed a very brain-intensive job. The old man yawned as soon as he closed the account book in his hand.
He got up and left the study, intending to go back to his room and continue sleeping before dawn.
Just before he lay down, something strange happened!
"boom--!"
The sudden explosion sounded like the clarion call of war, and the smell of blood immediately wafted over.
The old man was shocked and confused. He looked out the window and saw flames rising into the sky.
The sounds of shouting, crying, and explosions mixed together, and the old man was stunned for a moment.
The next moment, he realized belatedly that he had to pack up and run away.
“Boom——!”
In the distance, a building on the outskirts of the city suddenly collapsed, startling the old man so much that he quickened his movements.
He quickly packed up his valuables and left home immediately.
At this time, the explosion had awakened the entire Yuebaiting. Many people left their homes and hurried to the port.
The old man walked downstairs. He didn't feel any nostalgia or heartache, and just left his house.
His posture was very skilled, as if he had experienced this kind of thing before.
But the orc army did not want the humans to have evidence of attacking the city.
After all, leaving evidence behind might attract the Yutian Realm, and no one dared to take the risk.
So they didn't plan to leave anyone alive.
The old man was destined to be like all the residents here, never able to leave this settlement again.
