"What's unbelievable?" Lu Li asked.
"It's a sea monster, an octopus with hundreds of tentacles, a ten-foot-wide crab, a three-story-high turtle, a five-foot-long giant lobster... They appear in endlessly, all running out of the sea. They are just like the monsters in the mountains. Killing people on sight is really terrifying..."
The strong man said with a lingering fear on his face.
Sea beast?
When Lu Li heard this, he immediately frowned. How come even the things in the sea escaped?
You must know that the east and south sides of Qingshan Mansion are close to the sea. If even sea beasts come out to cause trouble, this will undoubtedly make things worse for Qingshan Mansion.
After a moment of silence, Lu Li asked, "How strong are those sea beasts?"
The strong man said: "In terms of strength, it should be similar to the monsters on land. No third-order sea monsters have appeared yet, otherwise I would not have been able to escape here."
"What about the quantity?"
"Well, I was just running for my life and didn't check around, but judging from the time I encountered them, there should be tens of thousands of them."
Listening to the conversation between the two, the people nearby became nervous involuntarily. This was the first time they heard that even sea beasts had escaped.
But after hearing this, Lu Li stopped talking and began to frown in thought.
According to what the other party said, almost all of Qingshan Mansion has fallen. Except for the ten big cities in the northwest plain, almost all other places have been swallowed up by monsters.
Moreover, in Haoyang City, in addition to the demon beasts that had just been wiped out in the west of the city, there were also armies of demon beasts approaching from the other three directions, which put Lu Li in a bit of a dilemma.
He was determined to let the people in Haoyang City evacuate to the west, but he was a little worried that after these people went out, they would encounter an army of monsters. After all, almost all of them were secular people. There was no room for resistance in front of the monsters. .
Seeing that Lu Li didn't speak, the others couldn't speak, so they could only wait quietly.
After a long while, Lu Li sighed and said: "Close the Sifang City Gate first, and wait for the reinforcements from behind my Yuxu Palace to arrive, and then we will take you to Yun'an City in Luoyun Mansion."
There were too many people here, and Lu Li didn't have a large spirit boat, so he had to wait for the inner disciples from behind to help with the transfer, because these inner disciples were all assigned magic weapon spirit boats, even though they were not of high grade. But it can accommodate many people.
Hearing that there were people coming to help from behind, everyone couldn't help but relax and respectfully said yes.
Afterwards, Lu Li followed a few people into the city. At this time, the streets and alleys in the city were full of people, most of them looked numb, and only a few people were filled with the joy of surviving the disaster.
Seeing Lu Li coming down, those people who looked normal quickly stood up to greet him.
Lu Li responded one by one. Amidst everyone's thanks, he returned to the city lord's mansion after a long time.
In the square of the City Lord's Mansion, there were many exhausted monks in the Qi-training period who were recovering in cross-legged postures. When they saw a few people coming back, people near the central passage stood up to pay their respects.
The strong man's name was Xi Yuan. He temporarily took over the city lord's mansion. Seeing this, he quickly stretched out his hand and said, "Sir, please come inside."
Lu Li nodded and walked towards the main hall with the seven people.
Arriving at the main hall, Lu Li sat down on the main seat unceremoniously, glanced at everyone and said:
"There are still monsters around in the north, south, east and west. Starting tomorrow, I will go out to clean up these monsters. But I am only one person and I have no skills. Therefore, while I am out, you are still responsible for the defense of Haoyang City. ..."
"Sir, is it too dangerous for you to go out alone..." Hearing this, Xi Yuan said worriedly.
"Yes, especially the east and south sides. The monsters on both sides are almost endless." The young man named Du Liangji also agreed.
"Don't worry, since I dare to go out, I must be sure."
Lu Li stood up as he spoke, took out a piece of sound-transmitting jade and handed it to Xi Yuan, saying, "This is an intermediate sound-transmitting jade. If Haoyang City is attacked by a tide of beasts while I'm out, please contact me immediately."
"Yes, sir!"
Hearing this, Xi Yuan quickly took the sound-transmitting jade with both hands. With the sound-transmitting jade, he felt much more at ease instantly.
Then, Lu Li briefly explained to everyone, then found a random courtyard to live in, and began to restore the true energy in his body.
He had shown great power outside the West City before. Although he looked majestic, the consumption was also quite terrifying.
Whether it is the 'Polar Ice' or the 'Excalibur Thunder Control Technique' that covers more than thirty miles at once, even if he is in the late stage of the Golden Core, it is still a bit overwhelming.
Just when Lu Li was recovering, several cities north of Haoyang City were also invaded by monsters. Like Haoyang City, these monsters all came from the west, and their numbers were similar to Haoyang City.
However, because there are many masters of foundation building in these cities, and there are two inspection elders of Yuxu Palace who are originally in charge, the casualties caused by this beast wave are not very serious.
Coupled with the arrival of the three water printing machines behind them, the five golden elixir masters joined forces and calmed down the beast tide in the west with almost no effort.
At this time, the five golden elixir masters, led by Yinshuiji, were taking a break in a city lord's palace called Yangqin City.
The water printer looked at the other four people and said, "Elders, the cities in the north have been calmed down for the time being, but the situation in Haoyang City in the south is not yet clear.
Moreover, Haoyang City is in a special location. Not only does it have to face the invasion of monsters from the east, west, north, and west, but it also has to resist the huge tide of monsters coming from the south. It is considered the border area of these northern cities. If the monsters from the south break through Haoyang City, then They will definitely drive straight in, and the consequences will be..."
Hearing this, Yi Qingyang suddenly stood up: "We all understand this. If the third elder has any instructions, just say so."
Hearing this, the two patrol elders sitting opposite Yi Qingyang also nodded at the same time, but Tan Yuan sitting next to him did not express any sign.
Seeing this, the water-printing machine pondered for a moment, then stood up and said, "What I mean is that we still need to send one or two more elders to Haoyang City to assist in the city's defense until all the people of Haoyang City are transferred. Everyone What do you think?"
"Both of you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Tan Yuan, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly stood up:
"Elder Yin, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. Although Haoyang City faces the monsters in the south alone, there are nine cities in the north. If two masters are taken away at once, won't it become three people guarding nine cities? What if? If another large-scale beast wave breaks out..."
As soon as these words came out, the two patrol elders nodded in agreement. The population of these nine northern cities was much larger than that of Haoyang City. The disaster caused by destroying each city was unimaginable.
"snort!"
Hearing this, Yi Qingyang snorted and said, "Now the nine northern cities only need to face one direction to the east, but Haoyang City is surrounded by enemies from all sides. The people of the nine northern cities are human beings. Could it be that the people of Haoyang City He’s not a human anymore!”
this...
Seeing Yi Qingyang's sudden anger, the two patrol elders instantly looked at each other.
Seeing this, Yi Qingyang glanced at Tan Yuan and the others, and said to Yin Shuiji: "Elder Yin, since everyone has different ideas, how about you let me go to Haoyang City to support you?"
