Chapter 53 The Undercurrent



Just as Zi Sui expected, the demon army outside the Wanren Mountains has already set out.

They were stationed on the Wanren Plain in the central part of Yueluozhou, facing the human garrison across the Wunu River on the plain.

The beastmen who gathered in the rainforest below the plains were stationed at the edge of the plains.

As luck would have it, the armies of the beastmen and the demons just sandwiched the human race in the middle.

The human army can easily detect their every move, but at the same time, the human race is also under close surveillance.

The large-scale actions of the demon clan were soon noticed by the human army.

"General, the demon tribe's actions have been reported to the higher-ups."

"how?"

"Move ten miles closer to Chen City, and dispatch a small force to monitor the mountain pass."

A tall and steady old man sat at the top. His gray hair did not diminish his general's majesty at all, but instead added a sense of heaviness and experience.

The old general still had his back straight, and he immediately understood the intention of his superiors after hearing the order.

"Leave one regiment to guard the beast tribe, and the others will follow orders."

"yes!"

The old general did not fully obey the orders from his superiors.

As the saying goes, when a general is away from the king, he may not obey the orders of the king. He knows very well what the level of the human leaders is.

On the front line, fine-tuning based on following orders is a routine operation and an unspoken rule tacitly accepted by top management.

But this also means that the generals who give the orders are responsible for these "micro-managements".

If you win, it means the top leaders made wise decisions, but if you lose, the generals will lose their heads.

The human army received the order and moved together with the demon army.

The peace that had been maintained along the Wunu River for nearly a hundred years was torn and shattered in an instant.

The cedar trees along the river became increasingly red, as if they were about to bleed.

While the situation on the Wanren Plain was changing, on the other side, the situation near Yin City, far south of Kaiyang, was also not peaceful.

Recently, the underground industry in Meifeng County has almost come to a standstill. Tourists come to this small border town with great enthusiasm, and then leave in boredom.

The rats in the sewers are most aware of what is happening in the dark.

Many underground fighting arenas run by individual investors have closed down, leaving only the fighting arenas run by major forces still in operation.

This unusual scene only meant that chaos was about to break out on both sides of the Lingyun River.

This is indeed the case.

At this moment, the attention of the whole world is focused on Yueluozhou and Huaihuangzhou, which is already in local turmoil.

The human race's counterattack against the orcs began to brew.

Well-trained teams moved towards the Lingyun Rainforest, setting up secret strongholds and military transmission anchors along the way.

These regular troops are generally in the fourth to sixth realms of the Xuan Realm, and are the backbone of the human race.

Among the vast number of Xuan Realms, there are also many masters of the Earth Realm, and one can even see the nine realms of the Earth Realm that are sporadically close to the Heaven Realm.

After finally finding an excuse to attack the beastmen, the human leaders simply wanted to swallow up the Lingyun Rainforest in one gulp.

The thorn planted by the beastmen near Yin City has been hurting the top leaders for too long.

How can I allow others to snore beside my bed?

Suddenly, undercurrents began to surge in the southern part of Kaiyangzhou.

The camera turns back to Qiongfang City.

On November 30, after days of chaos, a strange balance was formed in the city.

There were ruins all around and flames everywhere, but all the turmoil was contained in the civilian area.

Moreover, the scope of the unrest is gradually shrinking.

The four forces that were attacking each other had come to their senses and realized that they were probably being used as pawns.

When everyone was taking action, there was no common reason for a "ceasefire" and no one dared to stop.

After all, no one knows whether they will be besieged.

But isn’t this a coincidence?

The three-ethnic friendly exchange conference is approaching, and everyone will tacitly choose to stop temporarily for the sake of their own ethnic group's reputation.

In this way, the situation was reluctantly brought back to a certain level.

However, they didn't seem to ask whether our mastermind, Lou Zisui, wanted to cease fire.

So, on the first day of December, in the quiet early morning.

A deafening explosion resounded through the sky, breaking the original tranquility of the city.

This familiar and chilling sound came again, but it was completely different from before.

This time the sound did not come from the foot of the mountain, but appeared halfway up the mountain.

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, it seemed as if the whole world trembled.

Immediately afterwards, an extremely hot shock wave spread out in all directions with overwhelming force.

It is like a ferocious beast, ruthlessly destroying everything in its path.

The several noble mansions that originally stood near the explosion site were razed to the ground in the blink of an eye, leaving only ruins and billowing smoke and dust.

Immediately afterwards, the mess was engulfed in raging fire.

This sudden disaster once again plunged the civilians of the entire Qiongfang City into extreme panic.

Ordinary people, who had already become sensitive and suspicious, fled from their homes in panic, and the streets suddenly became chaotic.

But after a moment, they were all stunned as they looked at the hillside engulfed in flames.

The tragic scene caused by the explosion not far away left them at a loss.

In an instant, the fear of the nobles was like a terrible avalanche, leaving only broken walls and rubble in the hearts of the common people.

At the same time, all the forces looked up in shock, and they were also stunned.

"Fuck!"

"Holy crap! Who planted the bomb?"

"Ah? Such a big deal?"

"So, the previous ceasefire was actually a shift in the battlefield?"

"Quickly report to your superiors! The battlefield appears to be shifting to the residences of the middle and lower class nobles!"

"The demon race is so willing to give up!"

"I'm eating lemons! These damned foreigners and traitors actually attacked our nobles!"

"Everyone! Go to the mountain to rescue!"

"Okay, okay, you want to blast the nobles, right? I won't be sleepy anymore if you say that!"

"Damn it! Overthrow the aristocracy! Everyone, charge!"

In an instant, Qiongfang City was detonated again!

This time the noise was even more powerful, and even alarmed the high-level demon clan members who were firmly ensconced on the top of the mountain.

Zi Sui sat on a rooftop in the lower town, watching with great interest as teams of people climbed up the mountain.

Just now, he blew up another noble family under his control.

To be frank, just keep a few that you need. Leaving the others might expose him.

It would be easiest to just burn it cleanly. I didn't even charge them for the cremation fee. I'm so kind.

"Hmm? It seems to have affected the Orcs' welcoming mansion."

Zi Sui had excellent eyesight and he saw a creature with more beast-like features rushing out from a building complex halfway up the mountain.

Those are the members of the Orc delegation.

Well, since we are here, we can’t exclude others, right?

Zi Sui glanced at the aristocratic villa next to the mansion that was still burning, thinking indifferently.
