"Junior An Xiaoyu greets Uncle Nie." An Xiaoyu bowed very obediently to the five-star general, but this time it was not in the manner of superiors and subordinates in the Tianfu military, but merely to show the difference in seniority.
An Xiaoyu did this for two reasons. First, during the last alien invasion, she gave up her Tianfu identity so she could openly side with Jiang Yuan. Second, the five-star general in front of her was indeed her elder. She came from a military compound, and after her parents died in the line of duty, all the elders in the compound treated her like their own daughter. General Nie was one of the elders who treated her most closely, which is why she was able to hold a high position in Tianfu at such a young age.
"Xiaoyu, you're here too!" Nie Zhen's anxious expression softened. He had no children of his own, and the affection he poured into An Xiaoyu was no less than that for any of his relatives.
“Uncle Nie, we’re here to help with the Haicheng shipwreck.” An Xiaoyu pulled Jiang Yuan behind her. She knew all too well that Jiang Yuan wasn’t well-liked, so she naturally wanted to protect him in this rare place where she had a voice.
"Alright, with you all here, I'm not worried about the safety of Haicheng! On the contrary, these sea creatures need to think about how to safely retreat back to the sea, hahaha!" Nie Zhen's expression relaxed. If anyone understood Jiang Yuan the most, it was undoubtedly Tianfu.
Jiang Yuan's achievements are evident to all. From the moment he joined the Altay Border Defense Force, everything about him was kept in Tianfu as a top-secret file.
The Battle of Shiyan Pass, which defeated a million alien tribes; the secret command of the new generation in Shacheng, which allowed them to navigate between the two sides; the establishment of the imperial throne in Kunlun, which resulted in the killing of countless enemies; the breaking of the cycle of a thousand tribulations and the establishment of a new one; the overwhelming power of three thousand tribes on the Cloud Plateau, etc. Any one of these battles would be enough to secure an important position in the Heavenly Palace.
"General Nie, the situation is urgent. I won't say anything more. Leave the Bund entrance to us." Jiang Yuan swept his hand across the map screen, and with that one sweep, most of Haicheng's defenses were included.
"Are you sure?" Nie Zhen's expression was uncertain, because as a general of Tianfu, he could not joke about the lives of the people of Haicheng, so he had to get Jiang Yuan's affirmative answer.
“This shipwreck is different from the past, as you have probably noticed.” Jiang Yuan’s gaze hardened.
This is just a test. The people of Haicheng can no longer rely on resentment to resist the sea creatures. They must learn to fight on their own. Otherwise, how can they stop the sea creatures from overwhelming them in the seventh year of Tianqi?
We must be mindful of potential dangers even in times of peace. If we do not grow by paying a heavy price now, who will save China when the curtain of history collapses?
“Yes, the coastline can no longer provide energy.” Having stayed in Haicheng for so long, Nie Zhen naturally knew about Haicheng’s unique geographical location.
Blackness gradually tinged Jiang Yuan's eyes, and the Dark Star Spear silently appeared in his hand. He coldly declared, "Haicheng has only 253 days left. During this time, Haicheng must become the most powerful land city on the Imperial Star, without exception!"
"The most powerful land city?" Nie Zhen didn't understand what this meant at all, but just as he was about to ask Jiang Yuan for the specific reason, Jiang Yuan and the other two had already gone far away, leaving only Gong Suxin holding the star chart and fiddling with copper coins on the ground.
...
"Sea warriors, tear these two-legged monsters apart, let their blood flow into Mother Ocean's body, and feed their flesh to the deep-sea monsters!"
The mad sea creatures have come ashore. Their faith is purer than that of the land creatures. They come from the sea and are deep blue abyssal monsters. Now, their sole purpose is to devour all land creatures.
The arrival of the shipwreck was terrifying. The human race's warships and cannons were no match for these monsters. They could only rely on the energy they had gained from cultivating for only six years after the Apocalypse to fight against them.
However, the sea creatures are no weaker than the human race. The ocean contains far more resources than the human race, and their numbers far exceed those of the human race. Therefore, it is often dozens or even hundreds of sea creatures to deal with one human. Such a situation puts enormous pressure on the human race in the sea city.
One by one, warriors who had participated in countless shipwrecks fell, losing their lives due to their underestimation of their enemies. Without the suppression of the resentment of the coastline, the true fangs of the sea creatures were revealed. Their strength would not be weakened by the change of environment to land; on the contrary, with the enhancement of their extremely bloodthirsty psychic power, every sea creature was a fearless suicide warrior.
"Haicheng is in grave danger!"
Human warriors continued to cry out in grief and indignation. They were not crying out for their own lives, but for the city behind them, for their loved ones in the city. How could they, who had died in battle, protect their beloved family and friends?
"If life and death are predetermined, then I will guard this cycle of reincarnation for you all."
A long spear pierced the air, trailing a long trail of hellfire and the figure of a demon god.
