The sky is getting brighter, the moon is setting and the stars are few.
Gu Yuan stood on the city tower and looked into the distance. The cold wind was shimmering. The flags on the city gates were rustling. A crystal snowflake fell on his shoulders. When he looked sideways, the ice and snow had melted and turned into A drop of water.
In this season, you can still see flying snow, but only in the bitter cold land of Northern Xinjiang.
Hearing the footsteps behind him, he turned around and saw Wu Ning, wearing bright silver armor and holding a spear, striding towards him. The little monkey followed closely behind him with a solemn expression. Although he concealed it well, Gu Yuan still followed him. The nervousness could be seen in his eyes.
I have heard before that the little monkey has not been in the Demon Suppression Division for a long time. He just got along well with Wu Ning and was selected. Even in a place like Northern Xinjiang where people are trained, his psychological quality still needs to be strengthened.
"It's almost time." Wu Ning looked at Gu Yuan and said, "Are you ready?"
"Hmm..." Gu Yuan looked Wu Ning up and down, then looked at the soldiers of the demon-slaying army around him, and asked, "Do you have any armor or something? Give me one too."
"Armor?" Wu Ning was stunned, "What do you want with this thing?"
"You have it, but I can't have it? I like gold. You know, gold is my lucky color."
What else could Gu Yuan say? Could it be that because Wu Ning looked cool in armor, he wanted to follow suit?
"Then you should have said it earlier. We were not prepared for this. Besides, the golden armor is too eye-catching... Do you want to become a target?" Wu Ning whispered, "Even if you were able to fight in groups when you were in school, You have to pick the one with the best cup on the opposite side, right?"
Wu Ning's words still made sense, but what the other party didn't know was that what Gu Yuan wanted was to be eye-catching.
Anyway, the task Li Siming gave him was to attract the attention of the demon clan. Of course, the more eye-catching the better.
But at this juncture, asking Wu Ning to find a set of armor for himself was indeed a bit embarrassing, so he had no choice but to give up.
On the city tower, there were hundreds of people standing. They came to another position and looked into the city gate. The soldiers of the Demon Slayer Army had already formed a neat square formation and were ready to go.
Except for some masters with strength above C level, most of the soldiers' faces were turned red from the cold. There were so many people in the demon-slaying army, but where could the human race get so many masters?
In the past, the Demon Slayer Army's standards for selecting people were still very high.
However, as the situation in northern Xinjiang gradually becomes more complicated, the pressure faced by the Demon-Slaying Army is also increasing, and the threshold for recruiting soldiers has to be lowered. Even among the Demon-Slaying Army, there are still some uninitiated warriors who are at most limited in physical fitness. They are stronger than ordinary people and can form a small team to fight monsters. In this place, even just resisting the cold has taken a huge toll on them.
Gu Yuan's eyesight was very good. He could see many young faces in the square array. They might be a little younger than monkeys. When Gu Yuan saw them, he wanted to pick them out quickly, no? He was worried that they would hold him back, but he knew in his heart that the chance of these people dying on the battlefield was really too high.
"It's weird..." Gu Yuan murmured.
"Strange? What's so strange?" Gu Yuan's casual words immediately made Wu Ning pay attention, and he quickly asked in a low voice, "Did he discover the details of the demon clan?"
Gu Yuan shook his head.
"Don't you think it's strange? There's no fear on these people's faces."
Wu Ning laughed: "What do you call this? If you are timid before fighting, are you still a soldier of our demon-slaying army?"
Listening to Wu Ning's confident tone, Gu Yuan gained another understanding of the Demon Slayer Army.
The human race's ability to establish a line of defense in northern Xinjiang is definitely not the credit of one person, but the glory that everyone in the demon-slaying army earned with their blood!
"Where is Captain Li now?"
Wu Ning shook his head.
"I don't know about this."
In the Demon Slayer Army, at his level, it is not easy to meet Li Siming, but Wu Ning is an exception. After all, the two have known each other since they were in Star City, and
Moreover, although Wu Ning is young, his talent is outstanding, and his strength is quite impressive among the demon-slaying army.
Of course, compared to Wu Ning's military exploits in the Demon-Slaying Army, these are not that important. Having strength is one thing, but if you have strength but are greedy for life and fear of death, and are unwilling to go into battle to kill the enemy, such a person will The demon army is definitely not welcome either!
Only this time, Wu Ning did not know Li Siming's movements.
Now hearing what Gu Yuan said, Wu Ning also felt strange.
"That's right. I haven't seen the commander-in-chief yet... This shouldn't be the case!"
Gu Yuan glanced at Wu Ning and said with a smile, "What do you mean by what you said, Captain Li has to say hello to you first?"
"That's not true, it's just that generally speaking, the commander-in-chief will come out and say a few words before setting off." Wu Ning said in a low voice.
This time, the defense line is to be pushed out, and almost all the main forces of the demon-slaying army will be dispatched.
Although judging from the current situation of the Demon-Slaying Army, this is indeed not a wise choice, but the ordinary soldiers of the Demon-Slaying Army don't understand this. Even if they do, it doesn't seem to be a big deal.
As long as the commander is here, the demon-slaying army has never been afraid!
Since Li Siming came to the Demon Slayer Army, the feats he has accomplished have long since made him the new generation military spirit of the Demon Slayer Army.
If Li Siming had come here, even if he killed several spirit demons in succession, in the eyes of the demon-slaying army, they would still be inferior to Zhong Wuchen's hair.
But now, if Zhong Wuchen really comes back, these people in the Demon-Slaying Army will really have to sit on rocks and pull flower petals, wondering whether the old commander or the new commander is better...
When Ling Qiao came, Gu Yuan and Wu Ning looked over at the same time.
The conductor this time was Ling Qiao. Gu Yuan knew it in his heart, but Wu Ning was a little confused.
"Deputy Commander, where is the Commander-in-Chief?" Wu Ning asked quickly.
"He has his own arrangements, you don't have to worry about it." Ling Qiao said calmly.
"But seeing that the time is up, we are about to leave... Hasn't the commander-in-chief shown up yet?" Wu Ning was a little worried.
Ling Qiao seemed to know what he wanted to say. He was silent for a moment and said softly: "He does have his own arrangements.".qgν.
Wu Ning sighed and did not continue.
He didn't care, but if Li Siming didn't show up until the army set off, he was afraid that the other soldiers of the Demon Slayer Army would become suspicious and disrupt the morale of the army, which was definitely a taboo during the march.
He understood the truth. As the deputy commander of the demon-slaying army, how could Ling Qiao not understand it?
If he reminded her again, it would be superfluous.
At this moment, a loud horn sound sounded, and then a tight drum beat also joined in. From the bottom of the city tower, the sound of turning when the city gate opened could be heard.
"The city gates are open, the demon-slaying army is ready to march!"
"Go to war!"
"Triumph!"
