Ling Shuangxi saw Zhuge Liang, who was discussing tactics with her just now, suddenly disappear. Her eyelashes twitched and she immediately switched the communication to Hua Jianzui: "Is Ai Yu in trouble?"
Hua Jianzui, who received the call during the fight, was also confused: "Something happened? That can't be right?"
"Her summon has disappeared." Ling Shuangxi frowned slightly and sighed softly, "Never mind, Ai Yu is not the focus at the moment." Before hanging up, Ling Shuangxi added, "Live well."
"good."
——
With the map of District 7 in his hand, Ai Yu looked up as he walked. District 7 was originally a plain area, but since Xila's arrival, the trees have grown wildly. Except for the living area, you can't see the sky when you stand on the ground.
When they reached the area they had passed through when leaving the Star Beast headquarters that day, Ai Yu stopped, slowly closed the map in her hand, and raised her eyes to carefully observe the surrounding environment. She whispered, "Drunk in the Flowers, enter the formation."
As the words fell, Hua Jianzui appeared beside Ai Yu. She reached out and took off the sunglasses on her face, revealing a pair of beautiful yet sharp eyes, which scanned the surroundings vigilantly.
"Ai Yu, I can't see any illusions here. Of course, it could also be because my current strength isn't enough to detect the illusions hidden here. After all... I'm just a dead person now, and my strength can't possibly improve. Perhaps you could ask my real body to come and check on the situation?"
There was a hint of doubt and uncertainty in Huajianzui's tone.
After hearing Hua Jianzui's proposal, Ai Yu thought for a moment, then shook her head, declining it. "Don't bother." She withdrew Hua Jianzui, a subtle hesitation flickering in her eyes, but she still spoke, "Li Yuzhen, enter the formation."
When Li Yuzhen appeared, Ai Yu glanced at him. The Li Yuzhen she summoned now had all four limbs intact. She suppressed her thoughts and immediately ordered, "Search for any suspicious areas within a ten-mile radius."
Li Yuzhen responded and closed his eyes to sense.
"At eleven o'clock, five hundred meters away, I've detected a barrier. A rough survey reveals it's a triangular pyramidal building, but I can't determine its exact area." Li Yuzhen said, pressing the end of his eyebrow with his index finger. After a brief pause, he continued, "Do I need to break this illusion barrier and remove it completely?"
"No need to go through so much trouble, just take me in."
Hearing this, Li Yuzhen clearly disagreed. He frowned and retorted, "Doing this is too dangerous. I really don't recommend you take any risks."
"So according to your opinion, what should we do?" As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Ai Yu felt regretful, because the person standing beside him was no longer his mentor who taught him in the past, but merely a heroic spirit that he had transformed with the help of Sariel's power.
Although I understand this fact in my heart, it is still difficult to fully adapt to this change for a while.
"Use the human wave tactic and besiege Wei to save Zhao. With your current strength, it should not be difficult to do this?" Li Yuzhen raised the corners of his mouth slightly, his eyes as gentle as water, and stared at Ai Yu quietly.
Ai Yu avoided Li Yuzhen's gaze, lowered his head and replied softly, "Okay." Then he silently took Li Yuzhen back.
She slowly opened her hands, lowered her brows, and opened her lips slightly: "In my name, I summon you to appear.
Qin Shi Huang, Emperor Wu of Han, Emperor Taizong of Tang, Emperor Taizu of Song, and Genghis Khan.
As Ai Yu's call sounded, the figures of five emperors who once dominated the world gradually emerged.
Then, Ai Yu continued to list the capable generals under these emperors.
Before long, the entire forest was filled with densely packed, heavily armored soldiers.
Ai Yu still felt it wasn't enough after summoning so much. She took a deep breath and continued, "Read Water Margin and summon the 108 heroes. Read Romance of the Three Kingdoms and summon heroes of troubled times."
Along with her voice, legendary figures from ancient texts appeared one after another.
At this point, Ai Yu finally stopped summoning, but her face remained calm as she turned calmly to face the five emperors behind her.
The most arrogant and domineering among them was Li Shimin. He clenched one fist on his waist and waved the other hand casually, saying one word: "Go!"
As this order was issued, the other four emperors also spoke.
Ai Yu walked over and stood beside Ying Zheng. The girl who used to be so thin that she was not even as tall as Ying Zheng's chest was now almost able to stand shoulder to shoulder with him.
Ying Zheng tilted his head to look at Ai Yu and said slowly, "Once and for all."
He did not use a questioning tone, but a decisive affirmative attitude.
Ai Yu shrugged slightly, indicating that he wasn't sure if it would succeed, and then explained, "This is just our bargaining chip."
After that, she opened the notebook in her hand, which recorded the characteristics of each leader and Sariel in detail.
At this moment, Bai Qi quickly came to Ying Zheng's side and reported in a low voice: "We have found it."
Ai Yu was a little surprised when he heard this. He looked up and asked, "So fast?"
Bai Qi rested his left hand on the iron sword as he stood steadily beside Ying Zheng. His body was as straight as a pine tree, emitting a calm and resolute aura. "According to my observations, there are no traces of star beasts around the target."
Meanwhile, Genghis Khan, on the other side, twirled his beard, his eyes wide, and said, "If that's the case, then what's the difficulty? We can just attack directly! There's no need to report such trivial matters. What we seek is glorious military exploits."
Ying Zheng and Genghis Khan's eyes met for a moment, then he turned his gaze to Ai Yu and asked, "How should we negotiate with him?"
At this moment, Liu Che suddenly interrupted and said, "Why bother to negotiate? Once we defeat them and make them obedient, they will naturally obey all arrangements."
Seeing this, Ai Yu hurriedly raised her hand, fearing that these five emperors with very different personalities would argue at this moment. She quickly glanced at Zhao Kuangyin, who was the most quiet, coughed softly, and then slowly said, "I am well aware of the strength of your majesties.
Unfortunately, this is no longer the era dominated by ordinary humans...”
As soon as the words fell, the six people present fell into silence.
"But don't worry, I have enough confidence to force Lanling to stop the war. Because what I expect from the beginning is not the war itself."
Under Ai Yu's deliberate instructions, the forest surrounding the Star Beast Headquarters has been razed to the ground. At this moment, the headquarters, which was hidden under layers of illusion, finally revealed its original appearance.
At first glance, the entire headquarters is very similar to a pyramid, but it is purple and black all over, with no entrance. It seems like a completely enclosed fortress, giving people a feeling that it is impossible to peek into the secrets inside.
Ai Yu took a few steps forward and stood with his hands behind his back: "Attack."
