"How is it?
How much do you know about Fort Yue Yang? "
Inside the conference room, Ju Wudao was discussing the situation with his subordinates. The day before yesterday, which was the third day after Fort Yue Yang was conquered, the fort was completely shrouded in a black fog.
Fort Yue Yang was completely shrouded in a black fog. Not only could this black fog block vision, but it could also block all detection devices. The hundred drones from Yuzhang City never came out after flying in. Obviously, they had all been destroyed by the Yuan Shen inside.
Ju Wudao had no choice but to take the risk. He sent a team of sword bearers, all of whom were treasure-grade swordmaidens, into the black fog. They used their naked eyes to scout the situation at Fort Yue Yang.
The Void Piercing Swordmaidens were treasure-grade swordmaidens, and their fighting abilities were extremely weak. They were among the bottom few swordmaidens of the same rank. However, the Void Piercing Swordmaidens had a special ability. They could travel through space within a kilometer. If they risked their lives, they could even travel through space continuously. It was the best way to scout and escape.
Sure enough, the small team successfully rushed out of the black fog and brought the latest news from Yue Yang Fortress. However, this news made Ju Wudao feel a little hopeless.
"Sir, according to the team's information, not only did they find the Western Beast and Western Temple's Yuan Kou, but even the Martyr's Palace's Yuan Kou has appeared.
According to their calculations before they fled, they sensed the aura of five Universe Yuan Kou and twenty-six Nether and Meteor Yuan Kou.
However, the detection range of the Delusion Splitter doesn't cover the entire Fort Yue Yang. At least a third of the area hasn't been detected, so the number of Yuan Kou might be even higher, "an official from the intelligence department answered carefully. At the same time, his heart was filled with pessimism.
The Delusion Splitter was the only unique existence among the Void Piercing Swordmaidens. Its ability was to break through magical barriers within a certain range and see the real situation around it.
The Void Piercing Swordmaidens had to bring along the Delusion Splitter when they moved. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to get any real information.
There were already so many Yuan Kou's that had been detected. Including those that hadn't been detected, Yuan Kou's strength was already more than three times that of the entire Yuzhang City. This was a power that could definitely break through Yuzhang City's system.
"It's okay. How's our scouting team? Are they all right?" Ju Wudao coughed.
"The situation is not looking good. The leader of this team sacrificed 60 years of his life in order to escape with the Delusion Vanquishing Sword. He sacrificed himself on the way back to Yuzhang City.
The rest of the team members also consumed an average of about 30 years of their lifespan. "
At this point, tears welled up in the corner of the official's eyes. "They were clearly young men in their twenties or thirties, but now all of their hair is white and their sideburns are white. They look like old men in their sixties. Their lifespans have been greatly overdrawn."
"They are all heroes, heroes of Yuzhang City!"
Ju Wudao's hands trembled slightly. This was intolerable for an immortal sword wielder. This meant that Ju Wudao was already old, so old that he couldn't even control his own body.
"Let them have a good rest, then go to the warehouse to get the Eternal Water for them to drink. This is the last thing we can do!"
Ju Wudao said weakly. The Eternal Water was a type of spiritual water that could increase one's lifespan. It was a very rare treasure.
There were very few reserves in Yuzhang City. Usually, it was used by sword immortals and sword spirits to increase their lifespans.
Now that Ju Wudao had given such a treasure to a group of treasure sword wielder, it could be considered as making up for some of the guilt in his heart.
"What about the other base cities?
Have their reinforcements arrived? "
Ju Wudao recovered his emotions and returned to a calm state. He began to inquire about the situation in the other base cities.
The current situation in Yuzhang City was very obvious. It was impossible to resist this attack with Yuzhang City's own strength. They could only hope that they could get enough support from the other base cities.
"The first rescue team from Yanjing City has set off. It is estimated that they will arrive in Yuzhang City in three days.
In addition, the Liunian Family has sent people to negotiate with the Dragon Race of the East Sea, hoping to use the power of the Dragon Race to transport reinforcements from London and Los Angeles. However, they will only arrive in 10 days at the earliest. "
"What about the other four cities?
Have they replied to us? "Ju Wudao was a little angry. Why had only three base cities expressed their stance? What about the other four?
Were they going to leave them to die?
"Jerusalem City said that they are in the middle of Ramadan and must wait until Ramadan is over before they can support us. Leningrad City said that they have also detected a large number of Yuan Kou gathering around them. Maybe they will ask for reinforcements then.
Berlin City and Buenos Aires City did not have any reply. Their immortal sword wielder doesn't seem to be in the cities, so they can't give them clear orders. "
"F * ck, these bastards. Have they forgotten how Yuzhang City did its best to help them when they were in trouble?
These bastards! "Ju Wudao could no longer control his emotions.
"Only three of the other seven base cities have agreed to send reinforcements. Two of the base cities' reinforcements will only arrive in 10 days. What does this mean?
Will Yuan Kou wait 10 days before attacking the city? "
"President, please calm down. You are the one who needs to stay calm the most in the city!" The official tried to persuade him.
"…" Ju Wudao waved his hand weakly. "Go and do your investigation. Report to me immediately about Yuan Kou's every move. Go!"
"Yes, sir!"
The official retreated. Ju Wudao's eyes looked past the window towards the boundless sky. "Lu Ren, oh Lu Ren. Daddy hopes that you can stay in the trial grounds as long as possible … Daddy might not be able to see you again."
…
"You said that you have been trapped in this room for four days!"
Guhan looked at the rising bar counter in confusion. "What mission is in this room? It can actually trap you for four days."
"It's this damned apple-picking mission!"
Speaking of this mission, Liunian Ling was furious. She pointed at the mission prompt on the bar counter and said, "When the mission starts, a fruit tree will appear, and the mission requires me to pick 50 fruits in three seconds … How can I do that? I've tried my best, but I can only pick 15 fruits at most."
"Pick fruits?" Guhan was stunned when he heard the contents of the mission. Then, he revealed a strange smile.
"Ling, can you please demonstrate for me?"
"Are you trying to make fun of me, Liunian Ling?"
Liunian Ling's face was full of anger, but she did not refuse Guhan. Instead, she took a few steps forward, placed her hand on the bar counter, and shouted angrily, "I'm ready."
"The fruit tree will appear in five seconds. Please get ready!" Sky Covering Jiandi said in a cold male voice. Then, the entire illusion changed in an instant.
The originally undecorated blank room turned into a green grassland.
About five seconds later, in the center of the grassland, a tall fruit tree rose from the ground.
"This is an apple tree!"
Guhan recognized the origin of the tree at a glance. What? You're asking why Guhan knows that this is an apple tree?
Isn't this nonsense? Can't you see that the tree is full of apples?
The moment the apple tree rose from the ground, Liunian Ling also jumped up. Her figure was as fast as lightning, passing through the canopy quickly.
Three seconds later, the apple tree disappeared, leaving behind a girl with a bag full of apples in her arms.
"One, two, three, four … seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty!"
Liunian Ling began to count the apples in her arms, but Liunian Ling did not use the normal counting method. Instead, she used the apples as bullets, throwing them at Guhan. Every time she threw them, she counted them. By the time all the apples were thrown, Guhan had been hit a total of twenty times.
"Hmph, this is what you get for making fun of me!"
After hitting Guhan, Liunian Ling was obviously in a good mood. Her face was also full of a happy smile. She laughed very happily, a kind of happiness that could not be suppressed. She could not remember when was the last time she laughed so happily.
"As you wish!"
Gu Han shook his head. Fleeting Time Ling was just throwing random apples at him. He did not aim or predict where the apples would land. Gu Han was able to dodge all of the apples with ease, and not a single one of them landed on him.
However, Guhan did not choose to dodge. Instead, he stood there and used his body to catch all the apples. Anyway, these apples were not painful for Guhan's strong body. At most, it was like being bitten by a mosquito.
It was also a good thing to let Liunian Ling vent. She must have held back a lot of grievances these days.
"I didn't expect to pick twenty apples this time. It's a third better than my best record!"
After smashing the apples, Liunian Ling found that her speed and movement were a lot better than before.
This made Liunian Ling very surprised. When Liunian Ling's movement was practiced to this level, it was impossible to have a big improvement in a short time unless the physical fitness had been greatly improved.
For example, this time's one-third. Under normal circumstances, Liunian Ling estimated that she would need at least another five years of hard work to achieve it.
Above twenty, every time he increased the number of apples he could pluck, he would have to put in double the effort.
"Could it be that because he is by my side, my heart is happy, so I unconsciously improve …" Liunian Ling began to imagine in her heart. Unfortunately, this beautiful idea was mercilessly destroyed by Guhan in less than a second.
"I guess you should be full and have strength!" Guhan, this idiot, said the truth blindly.
"Tsk, if your stomach is full, then come!
Let me see how many you can catch! "Liunian Ling was so angry with Guhan's words that her nose turned red. She shouted for Guhan to try.
"I'm not in a hurry!"
Guhan waved his hand. He turned to Yi Tian, who had been watching the show, and said with a smile, "Yi Tian, why don't you try?"
