“Yes.” Yuan Hong nodded emphatically, first asking Su Ruojin and the others to sit down, and then began to explain Xiaoyue’s situation.
Almost all the villages adjacent to Beili in Xiaoyue have been destroyed and have become ghost villages.
Yuan Hong has sent troops to resist, and they are temporarily able to suppress the mutants rushing towards Long Xiao.
However, Liuzhou is not far from the border. In addition to releasing mutated people infected with Gu to attack villages not far from Liuzhou, Beili also released demon Gu soldiers wearing armor to attack Liuzhou.
The difference between the demon soldiers and mutants lies in the fact that they were soldiers in their previous lives. Their agility and fighting ability are unmatched by ordinary people. In addition, they are protected by armor, making them even more difficult to deal with than ordinary mutants.
After becoming demon soldiers, they lost consciousness, but their bodies still retained the strength and agility they possessed in life.
Ordinary people who encounter these fearless and undaunted demon soldiers are doomed to die.
Even ordinary soldiers would be no match for these demonic soldiers in a one-on-one fight.
It would take several people working together to unexpectedly behead the demon soldiers.
However, often in such close combat, before the heads of the demon soldiers can be cut off, one or two soldiers will be bitten, and their fate will be mutation.
Often, killing one demon soldier will result in at least one, and at most three or four, being bitten and choosing to commit suicide.
This fighting style, which inflicts a thousand casualties on one side but loses three or four thousand on the other, caused the number of soldiers and civilians on Xiaoyue's side to increase exponentially.
If it weren't for the explosives protecting Xiaoyue, it would probably have already become Beili's possession before Su Ruojin and the others even arrived.
Liuzhou was not a major border town before. It was only after the explosive formula was obtained that Yuan Hong increased the number of people stationed there to protect Liuzhou.
However, Liuzhou City was not very large, and the number of troops stationed there was limited. After Bei Li sent out the demon soldiers, it quickly captured Liuzhou.
In addition, some border cities have also fallen, and the only thing holding back the Northern Li's advance is explosives.
After Yuan Hong finished speaking, Su Ruojin roughly understood the situation.
Actually, the situation is better now than it was hundreds of years ago. Back then, there was no explosives, and we relied entirely on cold weapons. We could only fight one-on-one, and if we weren't careful, we would be bitten by the demon soldiers. As the fighting went on, our army would become the enemy's army. How could we not be defeated under such circumstances?
Now that we have explosives, we can defend from a distance.
To put it another way, if both sides were to fight one-on-one on the battlefield, they could use explosives to fight back. At worst, they could perish together and eventually wipe out the demon soldiers, at least protecting their rear.
However, Bei Li was cunning, not only training demon soldiers but also sending mutants to harm ordinary people.
In this way, it's not just about fighting against the demon soldiers on the battlefield.
Even if we win on the battlefield, what's the point if all the ordinary people in Xiaoyue become mutants?
"Where are my eldest master and fifth master?" Su Ruojin asked.
Given Xiaoyue's situation, the eldest master and the fifth master must be thinking of a solution.
Previously, her master had told her in a letter that she should go with her fifth master to see just how powerful this mutant was and to test whether the medicine her fifth master had previously developed was effective.
After that, she never received another letter from her master, and Su Ruojin didn't know where to look for him.
With the abilities of her eldest and fifth masters, Su Ruojin had complete faith in their self-defense capabilities and knew they would not be harmed by the mutants.
Now she needs to find a way to reunite with her master and fifth master so that they can work together to figure out a solution.
Although she brought the Glass Heart Fruit, she had never actually used it before, and didn't know if it would be effective against the Demon Gu King, or how useful it would be.
"The last message they sent me was that they were on their way to Liuzhou, and then I never heard from them again," Yuan Hong said.
When the Northern Li faction's demon soldiers attacked Liuzhou, Ye Xunzhi and Fu Linglong rushed over and sent a message to Yuan Hong, after which they lost contact.
“We’re going to Liuzhou,” Su Ruojin said without hesitation.
"no!"
"no!"
"no"
Three voices rang out simultaneously.
