As the night passed, the east became whiter.
It didn't rain that day.
The sun rises slowly, high in the cloudless sky.
Gu Qingshan's figure suddenly appeared in a dense forest.
The body of the python demon was still lying at his feet. Two hundred meters away, clusters of arrows pierced deeply into the branches.
If you stay in a different world for one day, one hour will pass in the real world, but when you come back from the real world, not even a second will pass in the other world.
It's a really weird time flow.
Gu Qingshan checked the storage bag. It was full of snake blood, snake teeth and other trophies.
Of the two most precious python demon gallbladders, he ate one himself, and the other lay quietly in the storage bag, emitting a dim light from time to time.
This is a good thing. Until now, Gu Qingshan can still feel that the energy and blood in his body are growing, almost catching up with martial arts.
Do you want to follow the path of martial arts?
Gu Qingshan hesitated.
Forget it, don't think about this for now, it's time to go back to the military camp.
I haven't had time to eat today. Although Zhao Liu is not good at anything else, he does have a good way of cooking.
Gu Qingshan packed up his luggage and quickly returned along the original route.
He didn't stop along the way, and when he encountered monsters, he just avoided them in advance.
After killing monsters all night, he returned to the real world and completed the development of a mobile armor. He met Anna, fought the Grand Master, met the President and the Martial Saint, and appeared on TV. Now he felt a little exhausted both physically and mentally.
This time in another world, why not take a good rest for a day.
When he returned to the military camp, Zhao Liu was standing at the entrance of the camp, eagerly waiting for his return.
When he saw Gu Qingshan, he said anxiously: "Brother Gu, it's not good."
"What's wrong?"
"There were many demons appearing one after another last night."
"Huh? What's going on?"
Gu Qingshan looked tense and asked.
Zhao Liu didn't understand military affairs, so he babbled for a long time, but couldn't explain why.
Gu Qingshan had no choice but to ask patiently. He asked three or four questions before Zhao Liu said one sentence from memory.
It took Gu Qingshan a full quarter of an hour to figure things out.
Last night, the demon army did not dispatch large troops, but only small groups of special forces.
These troops are well-equipped and powerful. In Zhao Liu's words, they "look scary to death, even more ferocious than the monsters we saw last time."
The demon army troops all rushed away from the entrance of the military camp at extremely fast speeds.
In order to ensure concealment and mobility, the number of demons is small and their movements are silent.
If Zhao Liu hadn't gotten up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, he wouldn't have been discovered at all.
After listening to Zhao Liu's narration, Gu Qingshan recalled the faceless giant and blood-drinking demon that appeared yesterday, and became even more confused.
What does the Demon Army want to do by frequently mobilizing such elite troops?
"This is the last year of peace, right?" he said thoughtfully.
"It's the last years of Taiping." Zhao Liu nodded.
Gu Qingshan was even more surprised.
This is indeed the time when the first war has just broken out. The demons and humans are still testing each other's truths, and neither side has yet sent a powerful team to fight to the end.
These powerful monsters that would only appear later in the war suddenly appeared now.
Gu Qingshan pondered and began to recall seriously.
He sensed an ominous sign.
In his previous life, he was the commander of the National Guild of China and the general strategic director of the World Allied Forces Command. He was particularly sensitive to the mobilization of the army.
He has carefully studied every battle in the game.
Having just traveled through time, his cultivation level was too low and he was injured, so Gu Qingshan focused on improving himself.
Now that the situation has changed, he once again thinks seriously from the perspective of a strategic commander.
Gu Qingshan put aside his distracting thoughts and began to sort out his thoughts seriously.
Since it is not a large army of demons being dispatched, what is about to happen must not be on a frontal battlefield.
In this case, frontal war can be ruled out.
So, will there be a surprise attack?
Gu Qingshan closed his eyes and ran through the map in his mind.
The military camp where he is located is at the forefront and now belongs to the fallen area.
Is there any human position near here that is worthy of the demons dispatching powerful elite troops to attack with all their strength?
The nearest human position is outside the border city, nearly a thousand miles away.
There are no human targets worth raiding nearby.
From this point of view, surprise battles can also be ruled out.
After both situations were ruled out, Gu Qingshan became even more nervous.
Could it be an assassination-type beheading operation?
Gu Qingshan thought silently.
In this year in history, many top human race monks died in battle.
When the war suddenly broke out, any important human monks were killed by demons in a sneak attack?
One name after another passed through Gu Qingshan's mind.
He was recalling and sifting through them quickly.
Suddenly, Gu Qingshan thought of two people.
Two amazing people, two people who are deeply remembered in history.
Many historians have made it clear that as long as one of these two men did not die in the early stages of the war, the direction of history would have changed.
Gu Qingshan suddenly asked: "What day is today?"
Zhao Liu scratched his head and said: "The seventh day of June."
Gu Qingshan's heart skipped a beat, this is the right time!
Gongsun Zhi, the supreme elder of the Holy Dao Sect and the great master of formations, died on the eighth day of the sixth lunar month.
Tianji Sect, Tianji Saint Ning Yuechan, died on the ninth day of the sixth lunar month.
Gongsun Zhi was surrounded by three million demons and died in his own magic circle.
Ning Yuechan was besieged by five demon generals and died after fighting hard day and night.
Many players were dumbfounded and unable to understand this historical record.
Because the magic circle is best at concealment and avoidance, and at the worst it can trap the enemy and escape.
Among the various families and sects, Gongsun Zhi is the great master whose formation skills have reached the top and can almost glimpse the way of heaven.
With his formation ability, it makes no sense that he would be trapped among millions of monsters.
The fall of the Heavenly Saint Ning Yuechan is particularly tragic.
Tianji Sect is one of the strongest sects in the world of cultivation. Ning Yuechan became the Saint of Tianji at a young age. Her talent and cultivation are among the best in the entire world of cultivation.
Such a stunningly talented and beautiful woman was besieged by five demon generals. After fighting for a whole day and night, she died of exhaustion.
If she lets out the slightest bit of news, someone will definitely come to the rescue during the day and night.
But until her death, the top human race officials did not know that she had been fighting the demon army for a day and a night.
A great practitioner once asserted that if Gongsun Zhi had not died, the outcome of the first battle would still have to be decided; if Ning Yuechan had not died, decades later, she would have the ability to fight the Nine Nether Demon Lord and change the world. The fate of the entire human race.
But this is just a sigh. History has already happened, and it has no meaning at all for future generations to say these words.
Gu Qingshan took a few steps back and forth, thinking secretly.
Today is the seventh day of June, and in the next two days, these two legendary figures will fall one after another.
The Demon Army mobilized its elite troops probably for this matter.
The place where these two legendary figures fell is...
Gu Qingshan silently recalled it in his mind, and soon recalled the location marked in historical records.
Sure enough, it's not far from here, only more than a hundred miles.
That's right, Gu Qingshan felt suddenly enlightened.
Once these two powerful human monks show up, they will definitely trigger a crazy siege by the demons.
In such an intense encirclement and suppression battle, Gu Qingshan's cultivation at the fifth level of Qi Refining would not allow him to even get close.
The demon army on guard outside could easily kill him.
For him, the only thing he could do was to take the opportunity to escape back to the human race's sphere of influence.
Escape from the occupied area while the demon's attention is on the two legendary figures!
Gu Qingshan made a decision quickly.
In such a situation, you can avoid the danger to the greatest extent by leaving in the completely opposite direction.
It takes about one day and one night to get from this military camp to the human highland outside the border city.
This time is not short, and there are many crises on the road, but it is better than waiting to die in a military camp that is about to fall.
So if you want to leave, you have to leave quickly while the two legendary figures are fighting against the demon army!
Gu Qingshan stopped taking a rest and quickly took inventory of his belongings.
The snake blood, snake teeth, and snake gallbladder are all there. The military bow is still in good condition. There are not many arrows left. I will need to replenish more when I leave.
The standard machete is useless, but at least bring one. If you need to fight hand-to-hand, at least you have a weapon.
"Clean up and we'll leave immediately."
Gu Qingshan packed his things and said something to Zhao Liu.
"Go? Where to go?" Zhao Liu asked with wide eyes.
He was holding the freshly marinated monster bacon in his hand and was about to hang it under the eaves.
"Of course we should escape from this occupied area and head towards the human highlands." Gu Qingshan said.
Zhao Liu hesitated and said: "But...but we have already found the spirit stone. With the magic circle, we can hide it for a while."
Gu Qingshan said: "This hidden magic circle is only effective for people below the golden elixir. Above the golden elixir, one can see through this magic circle at a glance."
He added: "The monster called the Faceless Giant a few days ago actually discovered us a long time ago, but it had a mission and regarded us as ants, so it ignored us."
Zhao Liu took a step back, then took another step back, shook his head and said, "Brother Gu, why are you alarmist? What's the point of lying to me?"
Gu Qingshan explained patiently: "If my judgment is correct, this area will soon become a battlefield. We must leave early if we want to survive."
Zhao Liudao: "Didn't you go hunting? How do you know this?"
Gu Qingshan said: "You can tell by looking at the deployment of the demon's army. Don't worry, I won't be wrong about this."
Zhao Liu kept shaking his head and said: "No! You must have made a mistake. It's so dangerous outside. If you go out, you will die at any time! If you want to leave, you can leave, but I won't leave!"
Gu Qingshan thought about the healing pill given by the other party, sighed, and still advised: "Just go with me, if you can't defend here, you will die in an instant."
Zhao Liu shook his head like a rattle and said repeatedly: "It's dangerous to go out. There is a magic circle in the camp. It's safe to stay here. Besides, the human army will take back this place sooner or later."
Gu Qingshan tried to persuade him a few more times, but when he saw that Zhao Liu was resolute and even looked at him with a look of annoyance, he stopped thinking.
"I hope you understand," Gu Qingshan said seriously, "Once the demon comes, it will be too late for you to regret."
Zhao Liu frowned and said nothing.
When Gu Qingshan saw this, he turned around helplessly and left the military camp without looking back.
It wasn't until Gu Qingshan left that no one could be seen, that Zhao Liu spit out something.
"Bah! Going out is the most dangerous. Those soldiers only died at the mouth of the demon after they left the military camp."
"Everyone is lying in the pit of death, but I am the only one alive."
"I originally thought it was a reinforcement, but it turned out to be just a lone new recruit. It took me a few days to realize it."
"It's ridiculous. You just want to die, but you still dare to bewitch me."
Zhao Liu cursed and returned to the barracks.
