Chapter 66: Reinforcements Arrive



With the unity and cooperation of everyone, not a single bit of the spiritual explosion caused by the self-explosion of Jinyu Dapeng was leaked out. Seeing that the spiritual explosion was about to subside, everyone was ready to cheer.

Unexpectedly, a shocking change suddenly occurred in the barrier. At this time, the huge golden-feathered roc had already been torn to pieces by the spiritual explosion. But what was surprising was that the essence of the monster was not destroyed.

And it was precisely this tiny monster's essence core that actually triggered a second spiritual explosion. The people who were holding up the barrier tightly had no time to curse the stinky bird that was going to take others with it even if it died.

Just when everyone tried their best and still failed to stabilize the barrier, and the spiritual explosion was about to break through the defense and wreak havoc everywhere, Xia Changan took action.

There was no fancy or fancy spell, she just lightly placed a semi-transparent cover on the barrier that was about to break.

That was an upgraded version of the absolute defense psychic program, and Xia Changan named it "Drawing a Prison on the Ground." This was the inspiration she got from the last time she stopped Zhao He from self-destructing.

At that time, due to the emergency, she was also trying her best. Unexpectedly, she was really lucky. With the shield that was originally used to defend against enemy attacks, she was able to withstand the spiritual explosion power produced by the self-detonation of the eighth-level strongman.

Since then, Xia Changan has started to develop another barrier to block attacks. She developed this program mainly to be on the safe side.

After all, in this strange world of the Yuanling Realm, those powerful masters always like to self-destruct at the slightest disagreement. Each of them would rather die than live in disgrace, and they are all extremely stubborn beings. It's really a headache.

So Xia Changan worked all night and lost ten hairs to develop this psychic program specifically for preventing chaste women. Ugh! I was wrong. It was a psychic program for preventing others from self-destructing.

The effect of drawing a prison on the ground was very powerful. The second spiritual explosion that had just begun to emit some flames in the barrier was severely taught a lesson by the semi-transparent cover of the barrier before it could rush out to commit any crime.

Until the second spiritual explosion completely died down, it was still not able to shake the semi-transparent cover in the slightest. The second spiritual explosion appeared suddenly, and the performance was scary, but it ended so calmly. It was really anticlimactic.

However, the masters who watched the whole process said that this matter started well but ended badly! They didn't mind encountering such a hasty crisis at all. Staying alive was the most important thing, and they didn't care about other things.

The group of people stood there in a daze for a while, until they came back to their senses when they heard the roars of monsters around them.

Due to the fall of the Golden-Winged Dapeng, these monsters that had been cut off from retreat had already escaped from the other party's control. At this time, they had regained their sanity.

But they were still ferocious and bloodthirsty, biting whoever they caught. Could it be that they knew that they were doomed and there was no chance of a comeback, so they planned to strike back before they died and drag a few more people down with them?

Xia Changan shook his head helplessly. Well, Jinyu Dapeng would rather die than surrender, so it seems that the soldiers under his command are as stubborn as him, and there is probably no way to get any useful information from them.

Although it was a pity, there were still so many monsters outside the city, and there would always be one or two willing to talk. Therefore, Xia Changan did not hesitate too much.

What bothered her now was what the golden-feathered roc said before dying. From what he said, more monsters would come to Zhongzhou to attack them.

Although she didn't know why the monsters were trying so hard to defeat them, she knew that as long as the Emperor Wu barrier between the Zhongzhou Region and the Beihuang Region was not repaired, humans would not be at peace.

It would take about ten minutes for the reinforcements to arrive, but everyone was already exhausted after being surrounded by the army of monsters.

They went through many battles, and in the end they almost gritted their teeth and squeezed out the last bit of their spiritual power to kill all the monsters in the city.

Now they have reached their limit and are really unable to fight anymore. However, the army of monsters outside the city are all full of energy and keep attacking the city defense formation.

Xia Changan began to arrange everyone to be divided into two groups, guarding the center of the formation in batches, and the two groups of people took turns to rest and recover their spiritual power. With their spiritual power exhausted and physically and mentally exhausted, everyone just hoped that their reinforcements would come soon.

These ten minutes would have passed in the blink of an eye in the past, but now it seemed like a year. Seeing everyone's sad faces and sighs, Xia Changan comforted them with a rare smile:

"Don't worry, the reinforcements have arrived outside the city gate. But now there are three layers of monsters inside and outside. They can't get in for a while. Let's hold on for a while. Once the reinforcements break through the monster army besieging the city, we can breathe a sigh of relief."

After hearing what Xia Changan said, everyone felt a little relieved. However, their frowns still betrayed their nervousness.

Just when everyone was changing shifts for the third time, news finally came from the city gate. The reinforcements finally broke through numerous obstacles and reached the city gate.

At this moment, the northern border garrison led by Lin Zewu has been moving smoothly and taking over various posts.

The people who had already looked gloomy were simply grateful to them. If it weren't for the inappropriate occasion, these poor guys might have just fallen asleep on the floor.

It is said that Lin Zewu was originally the general guarding the west. But not long ago, he asked for permission to be transferred out of Xilin City because of a quarrel with his apprentice, and said that he was very angry this time and could not be coaxed.

Since there was no shortage of military commanders elsewhere, Xia Changan simply sent him to the northern border. Isn't this right? They hadn't seen each other for three months, and when they met again, they were on the battlefield.

Last time they fought the scumbags of Yunqi Kingdom together, this time they are going to fight the monsters that have been gone for thousands of years together. What a damn fate!

Xia Changan was speechless as she watched Lin Zewu walk up to her with great strides and bow in a proper manner. If possible, she really hoped that the person who came was the second elder who stayed in the palace.

At least that old man is more serious than the shameless old man Lin Zewu. However, Xia Changan only complained about this in her heart at most. On the surface, she was still the majestic emperor.

Although Lin Zewu was casual in his words and deeds, he was still reliable at critical moments. He brought a full 300,000 troops this time, so he was able to easily break through the army of monsters that besieged them.

With this new blood injected, it should not be difficult for them to protect themselves. Moreover, in addition to their closest army arriving first, other places have also urgently dispatched a large number of troops and are rushing here one after another.

Once all the reinforcements arrive, they will be able to push the front line forward and drive these animals who have escaped to cause trouble back to the Northern Wilderness.

Almost everyone thought so, and Lin Zewu was no exception. Therefore, when the operational meeting began, the old man confidently stated his plan.

"Your Majesty! You are right to listen to me! When the time comes, we will directly unite all our forces and fight our way to the Emperor Wu's barrier. I want to see if those little beasts dare to come and cause trouble to our Zhongzhou region again!"

The old man looked quite funny with his beard puffed and eyes glared, but his words were reasonable and he immediately won praise from many generals. However, Xia Changan rejected his proposal.

"Driving the monsters back to the Northern Wasteland is only a temporary solution. The most important thing is to repair the Emperor Martial Barrier as soon as possible. Otherwise, the monster army will continue to attack, which will only put us in a passive situation. It is true that we can end the war with war, but the premise is that we must first completely block the way for the monsters to invade the Central Plains."

Xia Changan's veto was naturally not because she disliked Lin Zewu, but because she had her reasons.

Monsters are different from humans, they are very good at fighting, and they are the kind that will give birth to a whole litter of puppies at a time. Therefore, monsters never lack soldiers and generals for fighting.

It is precisely because of the monsters' terrifying reproduction rate and strong defense due to their thick skin and flesh that humans always suffer great losses when facing monsters.

Therefore, Xia Chang'an's mind and eyes were now filled with thoughts of rushing to the boundary between Zhongzhou Territory and Beihuang Territory to repair the Emperor Wu Barrier that had been broken for some unknown reason.

As for the stubborn matter of fighting a war of attrition with the monsters, Xia Changan didn't even dare to think about it. Just kidding, even if all the humans in the entire Zhongzhou region united, they couldn't match the terrifying number of monsters.

To win this battle, they must find another way.
