"Master Immortal, it's over."
Ma Tong stood on the smoke-filled battlefield and reported some basic information to Zhang Changkong.
This is the true frontline of preventing the nematode tide in the West River.
A big war had just come to an end, and the war lasted for three days and three nights.
The battle line spanned three defense lines and was almost ten miles long. Relying on the layout of the three defense lines, the large number of insects gathered by the insect tide were finally wiped out.
There are no less than hundreds of thousands of insects that have fallen here, and there are tens of thousands of warriors and ordinary people who have died on this battlefield.
Zhang Changkong was also a little tired. In fact, he was only responsible for the possible emergence of zerg in this battle.
But I didn't expect that after the battle started, not only was the smell of the bugs' blood too strong, but the sound of the battlefield was too loud, attracting three zerg bugs.
Fortunately, the three worms did not appear at the same time, giving Zhang Changkong the opportunity to defeat them one by one. However, in order to kill these three worms, the Colorful Moth almost died, the Golden Needle Wasp was once again trapped in the swarm, and the swarm of insects under his command also suffered losses.
There was an atmosphere of sadness on the battlefield, and many lost friends and even brothers.
Too many people died in this battle. Under the overwhelming offensive of insects, without certain means or luck, ordinary people and even strong men could not survive to the end.
"Master Immortal?"
Ma Tong slightly raised his head and glanced at the silent Immortal Master. He was a little confused about what the Immortal Master was thinking. As for whether he was sentimental, Ma Tong never thought about it. Ever since he came into contact with this young Immortal Master, the Immortal Master His face has always been calm and calm, and he has never shown any other emotions. He is so calm that it makes people feel scared.
"Well, we will arrange for people to recover the insect eggs as usual, and at the same time, return the bodies of the three zerg bugs to my yard."
Zhang Changkong took one last look and no longer missed him.
He has been used to seeing bloodshed in the past two months. In this battlefield of insects, death is the main theme. If he was compassionate every time, then Zhang Changkong would not have to do anything.
The battlefield of the Three Rivers Rainforest is the epitome of the survival of the human race in the wilderness. Without the courage to sacrifice, there will be no space for the survival of the human race. Zhang Changkong will not think too much about this matter of course.
After returning to the courtyard, Zhang Changkong cleaned up thoroughly, returned to the hall, and made a cup of tea.
Zhang Changkong had never seen a drink like tea in this world. This tea was a plant he accidentally discovered when he was looking for an insect nest in the Sanhe Rainforest. It looked similar to tea leaves, so he transplanted a few of the plants back as tea leaves. After some processing, tea leaves are obtained.
"Fortunately, the person I traveled through was not an ordinary person, otherwise it would be extremely miserable. I used to think that ordinary people in the Xiangshan Sect lived a good life, but I didn't expect that this was just an illusion. Ordinary people can just do it in normal times, and they can connect when the superiors need it. You have no control over your own destiny.”
Zhang Changkong thought of the people who died on the battlefield. How many people had lost their fathers, sons, and brothers, and how many families were in crisis.
"Power is the truth in this world, and power is the key to controlling destiny. If one day, the mages in Xiangshan Sect give orders, I am afraid that warlocks like me will be like the warriors and ordinary people on the battlefield today, without any room for resistance. .”
"It seems that I was wrong before. Ever since I discovered that the black stone has the magical effect of assisting in controlling insects, I have spent a lot of energy on it without knowing it. Maybe I thought that the black stone is a rare secret treasure and I want to discover it. The secret of this secret treasure is actually just a desire to take shortcuts. If I had devoted myself to cultivation and not engaged in evil ways such as searching for bugs and controlling bugs, my current mana should be more than twenty levels, not what I am now. Eighteen ways.”
"Fortunately, I woke up in time. If I had been stuck for more than ten years, my future would have been really dark."
Zhang Changkong has made up his mind to concentrate on practicing in the future. In addition, he will concentrate on practicing "Earth and Stone Mastery". Earth spells such as "Earth and Stone Mastery" are the most suitable spells for him as an earth magician.
Only by working hard to master earth spells can we lay a solid foundation for his future promotion to the mage realm. Other insect control, fire or wind spells may give him a great help during his period as a warlock, but in the long run, earth spells are the only It's what he should major in.
"Bang bang bang!"
As soon as Zhang Changkong heard the sound of the gong, he knew that Wan Gong was looking for him.
Thinking of the so-called "sinners" who were taken in a few days ago, I wonder how well these people have been arranged.
For these people, Zhang Changkong decided to let them continue to study bugs for him. Although controlling bugs is no longer Zhang Changkong's most important method, with such a foundation, it would be a pity to give up. Let these people study for him, and he will enjoy the results. , which is in line with his wishes.
Zhang Changkong then went out to see Wan Gong.
Time passed as Zhang Changkong went up to eliminate a batch of bugs every ten days and a half, and nine months passed in the blink of an eye.
Sake shop.
"Captain, tell me, it's been almost a year, why hasn't this insect wave ended yet? The insects seem to be endless. Are there so many bugs in the Sanhe Rainforest?" Lei Dao took a sip of wine and said gloomily.
"Alas", Ma Tong shook his head after hearing this, "The area of Sanhe Rainforest is at least seven or eight times larger than that of our three states. Hundreds of years ago, half of our Sanhe area was also within the scope of Sanhe Rainforest. After three large-scale developments, Sanhe Rainforest was A territory for our human race has been opened up in the rainforest. How many bugs are there in such a large Sanhe Rainforest? The bugs we encounter in the entire Storm Rain City insect wave are probably less than one ten thousandth of those in the Sanhe Rainforest, or even less .”
"Isn't it? Captain, if you say so, aren't there endless bugs in this insect tide? How long will we have to kill them?" The Iron Lady, who was missing a piece of her face and was no longer beautiful, exclaimed.
"Don't worry about it. The Three Rivers Rainforest is so big, and our Rainstorm City is just one direction outside it. Besides, not all bugs will rush out during the rainy season. Generally, when the rainy season ends, the bug tide will recede."
The stable boy waved his hand, telling them not to worry too much.
"Hey, is the rainy season over? The rainy season in Sanhe Rainforest can be as short as three or four years, or as long as seven or eight years. There are even rumors that there was a rare rainy season that lasted for more than ten years. If so, whether we can persist until then is another matter. ." said a bald man.
"Tieniu, you don't have to sigh. If it hadn't been for this insect wave, you senior warriors wouldn't have had such a good opportunity to gain territory. Without the support of territory, how many generations can a family of warriors survive based on your accumulation over the years? Yes. Gaining territory is the foundation for the longevity of a strongman family," Jin Fang said.
Tieniu was silent. In Sanhe Prefecture, without the ability to expand or defend territory, it would be as difficult as climbing to the sky to obtain territory. Unless there was an immortal master in the family, it would be much easier. However, if the clan members have the qualifications to cultivate immortals, the probability is infinitely close. At zero, unless there are hundreds of thousands of clan members, there is still a little hope.
"Hmph, Jin Fang, what you said is nice, we must survive until then. Don't you know how many people our Iron-Blooded Team has lost in the past year?"
The Iron Lady said expressionlessly.
"Speaking of territory, the area around Miao Mountain basically belongs to Master Zhang Xian," Tieniu said suddenly.
