Chapter 199 The Front Lines



Almost none of the ghosts that charged at the low-level corpse puppets lasted more than two moves. The low-level corpse puppets on the screen killed the ghosts with incredible speed and efficiency, as if they were cutting melons and vegetables. The ghosts suffered heavy losses, but fortunately, there were many ghosts, and they kept rushing into the screen wave after wave without stopping.

"Where is the intersection number seven? I'll go take a look." Seeing this scene, Wang Yao knew the situation was urgent and hurriedly asked.

Upon hearing Wang Yao's voice, the ghosts and immortals in the room fell silent.

"Lord Yue...?" When the Lord of the Samsara Dao saw Wang Yao, his eyes widened, his mouth twisted, and his expression seemed to be both about to laugh and about to cry, which became quite strange.

"Team leader? You're finally back! There are spirits on this floor! The Dao Lord wants us to go to the front line. We're doctors, not celestial soldiers and generals. Sending us to the front line to deal with spirits is just sending us to our deaths!" Dean Li complained incessantly when he saw the fairy maiden.

"It's alright, the Old Man of the Moon can deal with spirits, let's go take a look," the fairy said.

“Yes…” The dean blinked, looking at Wang Yao in astonishment.

"Where are Hui Shuo and Qin Su?" Wang Yao saw the Dao Master looking at him, seemingly too excited to speak, and worried that something might have happened to Hui Shuo and Qin Su, so he hurriedly asked again.

"I...I..." The Lord of the Samsara Path looked at Wang Yao, stammering. Wang Yao thought to himself that something was wrong, and rushed in front of him, staring at him with wide eyes and shouting loudly.

"What's wrong? What happened to Hui Shuo and Qin Su?"

"No... there's nothing between them. I... I've finally been waiting for you, sir." The Lord of the Samsara Path took a deep breath, and tears streamed down his face.

"The Holy Monk was exhausted from resisting the corpse energy in the West Fifth District and is sleeping now. Xiao Qin just finished connecting the communication lines in the West Sixth District, so I told her to rest in the back. I... I'll send a ghost to call her right away," said the Lord of the Samsara Path.

"No rush, as long as they're safe, that's all that matters. Send a ghost to lead us to intersection number seven," Wang Yao said, relieved.

"Good, good, good, oh dear, the immortal has just arrived, so we can't let you rest for a while." The Dao Master of the Samsara Dao praised repeatedly, but then suddenly seemed to feel guilty.

"No need to be so polite, let's hurry over." Wang Yao waved his hand. Just as the Daoist Master of the Samsara Path was about to assign a guide ghost to Wang Yao, he suddenly saw Eunuch Wei behind Wang Yao looking at him with a half-smile. He was startled and hurriedly knelt down.

"Your subordinate was unaware of the arrival of the Ghost Lord and failed to greet you properly. Please forgive me," the Lord of the Samsara Path exclaimed repeatedly.

"Your Excellency, there's no need for such formalities. I'm just here to guide the Old Man of the Moon; it's nothing serious," Eunuch Wei waved his hand. "But the Old Man of the Moon is concerned about the defense of your Western Sixth District. Does Your Excellency really feel comfortable letting him go to the front lines alone?"

"Yes, yes, I was really confused. Thank you for reminding me, Lord Ghost. Come, come, let me guide Lord Yue Lao." The Lord of the Samsara Dao suddenly realized what was happening and hurriedly bowed to Wang Yao.

“You still have to direct the resistance work in the whole district here. I can go to intersection number seven by myself…” Wang Yao was still being polite, but the fairy nun gave him a push from behind, so he had to shut his mouth.

“Dean Li, since you’re worried about spirits at intersection number seven, go and help out at other defense lines. Staying in the rear isn’t something our advance team should be doing,” the fairy said to Dean Li.

"I know, I just went to the intersection of Road 7 to add a protective shield..." Dean Li hurriedly explained to the fairy.

"It's alright, it's alright, the command is the same wherever it is." The Lord of the Samsara Path seemed not to have noticed the fairy's little actions, and continued to explain to Wang Yao, then turned his head and bowed to Dean Li.

"Then I'll trouble Dean Li to go and check on intersection number 4. Doctor Huo is in charge of intersections 1, 2, 5, and 6, and he's already overwhelmed." After saying that, the Dao Master of the Samsara Dao led Wang Yao and his group out of the room.

His men had already sent out notices along the way, and wherever Wang Yao and his men went, the ghosts automatically parted to make way for them.

Further on, the ghost stream began to split again, heading towards different battlefields from various forks. The Lord of the Samsara Path led Wang Yao and the others to choose a fork and proceed forward.

"Ghost God, Fairy Goddess, Lord of the Moon, my Zero Floor has been quite peaceful for a few days since Lord of the Moon left last time. But just three days ago, the enemy suddenly launched another attack on my Zero Floor."

"In addition to the low-level humanoid corpse puppets and high-level self-destructing corpse puppets that appeared last time, mid-level beast-shaped fighting corpse puppets and high-level humanoid corpse puppets have appeared. In particular, the combination of high-level humanoid corpse puppets and beast-shaped corpse puppets has a very considerable impact. We were caught off guard and lost the West Fifth District."

"Moreover, there are also spirits appearing on the front lines. Although the number is not large, it has dealt a great blow to the fighting spirit of the immortals. As the adults know, without the immortals providing protection on the front lines, our ghost race will not be able to continue fighting."

As the Lord of the Cycle of Reincarnation walked, he explained the current situation to everyone.

"The plan set by Lord Gu is to trade space for time. Defense points have been set up at all the crossroads in the entire Western Sixth District. Once a spirit is detected at a defense point, it will retreat to the next line of defense, where immortals will add a protective shield and then guard it."

"The intersection before intersection number seven was moved back because the spirit was discovered. Dean Li went to add a protective shield, but now that the shield is about to expire, he is worried that the spirit has already reached intersection number seven, and he is unwilling to go back to add more shields no matter how much we try to persuade him."

"Our orders are to retreat only after we find the sperm, but we haven't found the sperm yet, so how can we retreat? But if we don't retreat, Dean Li is unwilling to add a protective shield. I'm in a dilemma. Fortunately, you, the Matchmaker, have arrived."
