Rise in the glory of the king system

Chapter 623
Su Lie didn't expect that the monsters would attack suddenly at this time.

Demon species attack most in spring and summer.In this late autumn, they should all be looking for food for the winter, and rarely come out to hurt people. Therefore, the Great Wall is also in a relatively relaxed stage of armament at this time.In addition, several gathering points of demon species near the Great Wall were covered by Baili Shouyue's vision device, which showed that everything was normal at this time.

However, within half an hour, the scouts made three consecutive emergency reports, so he had to face up to the fact that the brigade of demons was preparing to attack the Great Wall.

The beacon fire had already been lit, and the news was passed on one by one by the beacon towers.Standing on the city wall, Gongsunli was a little excited as he watched the flames of the Great Wall ignited one by one.

"The First Army of the Great Wall Guards, the Fourth Army, follow me out of the city gate to meet the enemy!"

"Yes!"

The huge city gate opened slowly, and Su Lie and Kai led the soldiers of the two armies out in formation.At the same time, two teams of archers ran up the wall quietly and quickly, and lined up one by one along the crenels on the wall.

The soldiers who left the city gate quickly lined up, and at the same time, another team of seven or eight people ran up the city wall.When passing by Gongsunli, a soldier froze for a moment and stopped.

Gongsunli saw that it seemed to be Xiao Wu, the sniper who came to accuse Baili of abusing them last time.

"The city wall is dangerous, Miss Gongsun should go back to the camp."

As soon as he said this, the entire sniper team stopped and looked at Gongsunli.

Su Lie asked their sniper team to carry out long-range fire suppression on the city wall.At this time, the captain is not there, and no one cares about them.

It was rare for Xiao Zhang, who usually cherishes words like gold, to persuade him: "Go back."

"Yes, otherwise the captain will definitely be worried when he comes back and sees that you are injured."

"Maybe we will be given more training..."

……

Feeling warm in his heart, Gongsun Li opened the oil-paper umbrella with a smile, and blocked it on the crenel where he was standing. "It's okay, you are busy, I will be careful."

During the conversation, the army of demons had already reached the city, and Su Lie rushed into the crowd of demons first, brandishing a thick crossbar, and the screams of killing shook the sky.

The snipers wanted to say a few more words of persuasion, but seeing the stalemate in the battle, they didn't have time to say more.At this moment, a kitten rushed up to the city tower in a hurry, holding something in the shape of a cat, and quickly stopped Gongsunli in front of him.

"Let's go! I will protect Miss Gongsun!"

Upon seeing this, the snipers bowed and said goodbye.

After everyone had walked for a while, Gongsunli remembered and hurriedly shouted: "You all be careful!"

No one looked back, only Xiao Wu made a high-pitched "received" gesture.Soon, the team members dispersed and found a suitable sniper position to join the battlefield.

Outside the city wall, the swordsman named "Kai" has drawn his long sword and started a new round of fighting, blood gradually staining his silver armor red.As for Su Lie, who was wearing a dark military uniform, he was already overwhelmed by demons and could not be seen.

In just a few minutes while Gongsunli was talking to the snipers, hundreds of monsters had already fallen under the Great Wall, but the monsters behind them swarmed up without being affected at all.

The smell of blood rushed up the city wall all of a sudden, covering the entire Great Wall in a bloody storm.In a tragic scene, only the sun shines on the blood and killings everywhere.The drums of war became faster and faster with the movements of the soldiers, beating hard on everyone's heart as if they were killing each other.

Gongsunli leaped onto the tallest tower, unscrewed the umbrella, and faint mana lingered around her.She closed her eyes and slowly spun around, the streamer on the skirt behind her dancing with the wind.

When he opened his eyes again, a small maple leaf had already been transformed into the palm of his hand.

Seeing the person she wanted to protect standing in the most conspicuous position, Shen Mengxi was so frightened that she couldn't care less about showing off, and threw the bombs she had made to the back of the demon population.

Gongsunli spun and waved, every maple leaf flew out, carrying maple-colored mana and sinking into the heart of a demon.

She is supporting the Guards.

Gradually, some demons discovered her and threw the swords of fallen soldiers at her, but they were all blocked by the oiled paper umbrella that seemed to break when touched.The mana of the same color protects the umbrella surface as well as the person who holds it.Gongsunli spun the umbrella to block the attacks from all directions, and tried his best to throw maple leaves to attack the enemy in the gap of the block. From a distance, it looked like he was dancing.

Clean, beautiful, dance like no one else.

No one appreciates it.

--------------

In the desert dozens of miles away, demons also appeared in the magic circle where Baili Shouyue was.

In the beginning, one or two sporadically ran from his face to the center of the circle, and were shot dead by him.Gradually, there were more and more monsters, and when he reached the center of the magic circle, the monsters were already coming from all directions.

Their target is not him, but Baili Xuance in the middle of the magic circle.

At the place where the dark purple thin lines are densest, two chains grew out of the ground out of thin air, binding a red-haired boy with wolf ears.Under the young man's feet, there was another dark red magic circle. In the magic circle, seven twinkling light spots were arranged in the form of the Big Dipper.

Those seven light spots rise and fall one after another, and the white light emitted is dazzling.There are already tide-like monsters gathered around, frantically wanting to attack the young man in the middle, but they are afraid of the light and dare not approach, and only dare to attack when the light weakens with the law of change.

Even with the deterrence of light, there is always room to attack.The boy's body was already stained with blood, and he huddled into a ball with all his strength, shivering under the rays of light.

A sharp claw grabbed the boy's shoulder, and the next moment, the owner of that claw was pierced through the heart by a bullet.

Baili Shouyue's eyes were red, but his hand was holding the shotgun steadily.The young man in the middle of the magic circle was startled by the gunshots, looked up at him, was stunned for two seconds, and his eyes became loose again.

Lost eyesight is a sign of weakness.Shouyue suddenly became nervous and shouted: "Xuance!"

The boy lowered his head without responding.

Baili kept his promise and ran towards the boy, taking away the life of a demon with every shot.He holds the gun in one hand, holds the saber in his left hand to open the way, and quickly eliminates the more and more demon seeds gathered around the young man with his right hand.Except for reloading, the gunfire never stopped.

"Xuan Ce!"

When he was only a dozen steps away from the boy, the boy finally looked up at him.At this time, the demon seeds had already surrounded the red magic circle three layers and three layers outside, and Baili kept the promise and could no longer move forward.

The monsters swarmed like a sea, and he had to fill the sea to pass.

The young man looked at him, his blood-red eyes were lifeless, showing a kind of ashen-like despair.

"Xuance!" Shouyue shouted again.

The young man smiled slightly and said something in a low voice, and the seven white light spots around him suddenly went out.At the same time, the demon seeds who had been working together to attack the red magic circle suddenly lost their direction, searched aimlessly, and finally locked on Baili Shouyue ten steps away.

The situation was reversed in an instant, and a tide of monsters rushed towards him.Hua Mulan and Gao Changgong stood outside the purple magic circle, only to hear that the shotgun in Baili Shouyue's hand almost burst into bursts, but in the blink of an eye, he was overwhelmed by the demon population.

Hua Mulan was so anxious that she drew her epee and was about to rush in, but was pulled back by Gao Changgong. "He won't let you in."

"Then I can't watch him die!"

A smile appeared in Gao Changgong's eyes, and Hua Mulan stopped in her tracks with that calm demeanor.

Baili Shouyue closed his eyes again.

There was no light in the magic circle, and they were all guided by the light of the magic circle under their feet along the way.Now surrounded by the demons, blood and corpses are all under his feet, and even a little light can't penetrate the encirclement.He simply closed his eyes, relying on the sound and the direction of the wind to avoid the attack.

The corpses of the demon species killed by the shotgun formed a temporary wall for him.But soon, the demons behind would push down the corpse in front, and Baili Shouyue had to jump on top of the corpse to fight.He kept dodging, jumping back and forth on the mountain of corpses, his position was getting higher and higher, and his physical strength was gradually declining.

Turning around, he saw that several huge demon seeds had surrounded the young man in the red magic circle, and one of them had already bit his arm.The boy struggled desperately and kept crying, but no sound could be heard.Baili kept the promise without hesitation, and ended the life of the demon with two guns.

Just this time for support, the demon species behind him jumped onto the mountain of corpses, slapped him on the back, and knocked him down into the pile of corpses.

Baili Shouyue coughed out a mouthful of blood, turned over, and then used the corpse as a point to fire another shot, hitting the heart of the demon seed closest to the boy.

"Xuance..."

The smell of blood has filled his nostrils, and he doesn't know if it's from the devil or from himself, and every breath is excruciating pain.He knew that he might not be able to get out, but luckily he could see Xuan Ce again.

"No one can... hurt you..."

Three more shots were fired, and the huge body of the monster beside the boy fell to the ground.And he himself was covered in wounds.

The long fangs pierced his left leg, and he didn't even have the strength to resist, so he could only shoot forward one by one.

The boy's icy red pupils finally fluctuated a little. The scene in front of him was too tragic, and a warmth and sadness suddenly rose in his heart.

Because of the missed appointment three years ago, the brother he hated the most, the brother he missed the most, was about to die in front of him now.

The hatred was still there, but he was actually a little reluctant to let go.

The gunshots gradually stopped, and the young man stared at the barrel of the shotgun. His eyes behind the sniper scope slowly closed, and his wolf ears, which were similar to himself, drooped.The demons cheered and rushed forward to grab the prey they got.

With such a huge number of demon populations, I actually only had a few small skin traumas.

The boy stood up, took a long time, and took a step forward.

From the moment he stepped out of the red magic circle, the huge purple magic circle began to gradually extinguish, the purple light dimmed one after another, and the demon seeds gradually shattered and disappeared.Hua Mulan suddenly realized it and turned to look at Gao Changgong, "Is this an illusion?"

Gao Changgong shook his head, noncommittal.

After a while, all the demon seeds disappeared.Baili Shouyu's body fell from mid-air and fell heavily to the ground, making a crisp sound of broken bones.

The blood gradually spread from under him, and slowly seeped into the desert.

"The first time I saw him, he was put into a sacrificial circle, ready to be sacrificed to the demon seed. I happened to pass by at that time and saw a swordsman save him. Later, the sword The scholar disappeared, Xuan Ce woke up and insisted on following me."

"The swordsman is armor, right? I heard him say it."

"Well," Gao Changgong looked at the young man in the magic circle. With the disappearance of the magic circle and the demon seeds, two hook sickles gradually took shape in his hands.

"He wants to become stronger, so he has been pestering me, asking me to be his teacher. He said that he wants to become stronger at the fastest speed."

"The fastest speed?" Hua Mulan was puzzled.

"That means the most rigorous training at the limit that his body can bear. In the past three years, all the pain of training and the hatred of being abandoned by his brother have been injected into the two hooked sickles by him, becoming a nightmare. The carrier of the nightmare , is the memory of him being thrown into the sacrificial circle back then."

"So it's all his memory?"

"Correct."

All the sounds in the circle have disappeared.Baili Shouyue lay there motionless, his limbs twisted to an inconceivable angle, his wounds were horrific, and his body was covered in blood.The boy suddenly trembled twice, and tentatively walked towards him.After realizing that Baili Shouyue didn't respond at all, he walked faster and faster, and in the end he almost ran and threw himself on Shouyue.

In the scarlet eyes, a few tears fell, and then, like a person who had been drowning for a long time, he suddenly gasped, took a big breath, and began to cry.

Baili's sense of keeping the contract has been blurred, and the past scenes began to replay before his eyes.

A happy family in childhood, mother's entrustment before death, and my own promise.

"I will always, always protect my brother."

"Brother will never abandon you, and will never abandon you. We agree."

"This is a wild goose. Wild geese go in autumn and come back in spring. They are animals that return home no matter how far away they are."

Then there is the scene of the demon species invading. When I returned home, I saw the overturned water tank and found the broken wooden figurine in the corner.

Join the guard army and meet Sister Mulan and Uncle Su Lie.

Exploring deeper into the desert time and time again, in order to wait for Xuan Ce to come back.

And the girl with rabbit ears I met in the desert when I was looking for Xuan Ce last time.

"I have a way out, but you don't."

And after returning to the Great Wall, being teased by Hua Mulan blushing, rabbit ears drooping, wronged and shy eyes.

Consciousness gradually faded, and he felt warm.

Are you going to die?

The captain will take Xuan Ce back and take good care of him, and Ah Li will also take good care of him.He felt very satisfied.

Suddenly, the pain began to subside, all the wounds gradually healed, and sound and light came in.

Outside the magic circle, Gao Changgong put away his military thorns, straightened his clothes, and looked like he was about to leave. "I sneaked up on him before to test his reaction speed. If he is not fast enough, he may die in Xuance's illusion."

"Are you testing him?"

"Yes," Gao Changgong pointed to Xuan Ce, "this illusion is Xuan Ce's test for him, and it's also my test for him."

Hua Mulan frowned, obviously dissatisfied with Gao Changgong's arrangement: "What does it have to do with you?"

Gao Changgong sighed softly, "Xuance has been pestering me before because he knows that in this desert, only being strong can survive. The hook sickle in his hand is his only weapon, but because he absorbed Too much hatred attached to a nightmare, if the nightmare is not broken, he will not be able to live in peace with the hooked sickle."

"So you mean that you are helping him by doing this?" Hua Mulan crossed her arms and looked at him provocatively, "Didn't you just say that he is not your apprentice? Why do you actually care so much?"

"Cough cough," Gao Changgong coughed unnaturally twice, and put his hands in front of his mouth in a very artificial manner, "They leave it to you, I'll go first."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Hua Mulan to answer, he concealed himself again.Hua Mulan rolled her eyes and looked at Brother Baili over there.The illusion had just dissipated, and all the wounds on Shouyue's body healed, but he obviously hadn't reacted yet, holding Xuan Ce at a loss what to do, and Xuan Ce was crying with tears all over his face, mixed with the sand and dust into a small cat face.

"Why do you say you are doing this?" Hua Mulan sighed softly.To love is to love vigorously, to hate is to hate thoroughly, and to engage in such hate because of love is not mainstream.

She shook her head, deciding not to watch this scene of reunion after a long absence.As soon as I turned my head, I saw a thin black line on the western horizon.

It won't be another magic circle.She was confused, and after looking at it carefully for a long time, she gradually understood that it was all the beacon towers on the Great Wall being lit, and the smoke formed a black line over the Great Wall.

"Observe the promise! Something happened to the Great Wall!"

--------------

The attack of the demon species was completely unexpected. From the time, to the direction, to the offensive, it all showed that this was by no means an ordinary harassment by the demon species. It was definitely raised and trained deliberately by someone in order to defeat the Great Wall defense line.

"Urgently recruit the left and right Longnan Road troops to come to reinforce!"

The demon attack was too fierce. One-third of the soldiers led by Su Lie and Kai who went out to meet the enemy were killed or injured. All the survivors had retreated to the Great Wall, closed the gates, and delayed the defense.

But the demon species has not shown any signs of decreasing.

The beacon tower has been lit for two hours. So far, only the Duhu Mansion has sent two troops to reinforce it, and the nearby Shanhaiguan JYG has not moved.Fortunately, Shen Mengxi came to the Protectorate's Mansion, and his bombs were much more powerful than cold weapons.

Even so, the number of casualties continued to mount.The drums of war had already stopped, no one spoke, and everyone was resisting the demon seeds.

This is a battle with no end in sight.No, there is an end, either the demons give up their attack, or the entire guard army is wiped out.

Gongsunli exhausted his strength and sat on the top of the tower panting for breath.Looking back, Su Lie was still struggling to hold on, and Kai's battle armor was already covered in blood.Countless wounded soldiers were transported down from the city wall, and other soldiers stepped into the breach.

The east is peaceful, and rescue is still far away.

The snipers had already gathered on the tower, at such a short distance, even without a sniper scope, one shot could take away a demon seed.Gongsunli watched for a while, then looked towards the west in a strange way.

A crimson figure seemed to appear in the army of gray-black demons, and beside that person was a young man with wolf ears.

"Captain! It's the captain and Shou Yue who are back!"

Su Lie immediately shouted: "Is it true!"

The distance was too far, except for Gongsunli who was standing at the highest point, no one could see the two behind the demon group.Xiao Zhang of the sniper team reacted the fastest. He picked up his gun and took a look with the sniper scope, and then confirmed loudly: "It's true!"

The return of these two people was like a shot in the arm, and everyone's morale immediately rose.Su Lie's blood-stained face also showed some joy: "Look! Open the city gate when they arrive!"

Hua Mulan swung a big sword violently in her hand, forcibly cutting a bloody path from the demon population.Baili Shouyue stood on her left. The sniper rifle was infused with dark purple mana. The bullets fired could penetrate several monsters. A bullet with mana could kill enemies in a straight line.

Soon, the number of demons outside the city wall decreased a lot.Gongsunli stood at the highest point, and had a panoramic view of all this.

With Gongsunli at the top of the tower as cover, Hua Mulan and Baili Shouyue struggled through the demon population and reached the bottom of the Great Wall.The closer they got to the Great Wall, the denser the monsters became, and their speed began to slow down.

A maple leaf pierced through the demon seed closest to Baili Shouyue, he looked up, Gongsunli smiled and made a "wait a moment" gesture to him, and he couldn't wait to jump down the tower, wanting to go down to inform the soldiers Open the city gate.Unexpectedly, as soon as she landed on the city wall, a huge monster climbed up from the crenel closest to her, and its sharp claws pierced through her shoulder severely.

"Ali!"

"Miss Gongsun!"

Shen Mengxi yelled and threw a bomb.As soon as the bomb flew into the air, it was detonated by the bullets of the sniper team, blowing the monster out all at once.Gongsunli fell to the ground and grabbed the ankle of the nearest soldier.

"Go and open the gate of the city... Keep the promise... Still..." Outside.

Her ears were ringing, her eyes were dark, and she passed out before she could finish speaking.
