The system asked me, a weak woman, to challenge a saint

Chapter 545: Infiltration blocked, unwarranted difficulties out of greed

Before Gu Yixin's army suffered a fatal blow from Fox 23, the main force of the Ningzhou coalition forces under her control had successfully broken through the southern defense line of the Yao clan, passed through Nanguang County along the east side of Daliang Mountain, and advanced northward to Yizhou. .

The main force of this Ningzhou coalition army is very different from the 50,000 soldiers and horses in Gu Yixin's hands. The core of the force are senior puppets who have been lurking in the Jin Dynasty for many years. This army is not only guarded by the monks of the Transformation of Gods, but also has many monks in the Danjie Realm who go deep into the grassroots and master the tactical captain's authority of each array unit, thereby implementing strict control over the entire coalition army from top to bottom, and its execution ability is far beyond The troops Gu Yixin brought to the border of Jingzhou.

Thanks to the rich information on the demon clan in the hands of the Huanchen Sect, compared to the Great Jin, as human puppets directly subordinate to the Huanchen Sect, they have a thorough understanding of the opponent's tactics through special channels. Although the Huanchen Sect and the Yao Clan acted together under the jurisdiction of Gulingwei and did not have a clear cooperative relationship, they did not belong to hostile camps. Therefore, the Huanchen Sect secretly exchanged a lot of Yizhou intelligence with the Yao Clan.

Therefore, whether it is military strength or intelligence control, the current Ningzhou Alliance Army is almost the same as the Monster Clan Alliance Army. When the forces in the southern part of the Monster Clan were empty, the Ningzhou Allied Forces suddenly launched an attack, giving the Monster Clan Coalition an unprepared blow. In addition, the general soldier of the Monster Clan disappeared due to assassination, and the various departments of the Monster Clan Alliance lacked unified coordination. The main force of the Ningzhou Coalition Army took advantage of the victory and pursued it with overwhelming force. They soon approached the center of the Monster Clan located in the central area of ​​the three counties of Shenli County, Jiangyang County, and Shu County. .

At this time, when the center of the Monster Clan was being rebuilt, Lingquan Xiaoya, the incarnation of Xiao Ling, took the opportunity to sneak into the peripheral area of ​​the Monster Clan's base camp. Due to previous attacks, many of the center's defense facilities were still being repaired, and patrolling demon soldiers hurriedly patrolled the streets.

The little fox demon mingled with a group of demon cultivators waiting to enter the center, and was stopped by the demon soldiers guarding the entrance. The demon soldiers standing behind the protective formation barrier announced in a cold tone: "The base camp is being rebuilt. No one is allowed to enter without a special summons."

"But Lord Commander has never prohibited us from returning to the realm through the teleportation formation!" A male demon cultivator said while being supported by another demon cultivator.

"Yes, Lord Commander-in-Chief once said that as long as we accumulate enough military merit and pay resources, we can return to the realm." As the first demon cultivator questioned, the second demon cultivator also agreed.

"Exactly, we have paid a lot of resources, why can't we return to the realm?"

"Yes, I still have a litter of cubs at home waiting for me to feed them. If I can't go back, who will be responsible?"

"Let us go in. We can also help build the base camp before the teleportation array is opened!"

……

For a while, the demon cultivators who were turned away were noisy.

A guy who looked like the little leader of the demon soldiers looked at these noisy demon cultivators, smiled contemptuously, and then shouted loudly: "We have explained it very clearly, please retreat quickly."

However, the demon cultivators outside the door turned a deaf ear and continued to clamor to enter the center.

Upon seeing this, the leader of the demon soldiers immediately put away his arrogant attitude, his eyes instantly became fierce, and his temperament changed from a "dog-like guard" to a ferocious wolf demon. It let out a wolf howl, and suddenly, hundreds of wolf demon soldiers from the Nascent Soul Realm appeared around, surrounding the demon cultivators.

The leader of the demon soldiers looked at the group of demon cultivators coldly, and said in a sharp tone: "I advise you not to make mistakes. It is precisely because you demons come and go at will that the base camp was breached by the human race, and even the phantom of the saint was They have all been defeated. Now that the war is unclear, we need to track down the traitors. If you don't leave, you will be regarded as a spy of the human race!"

As these words fell, the surrounding wolf demons showed their weapons one after another, and the noisy demon cultivators in front of the door immediately fell silent, for fear of causing unnecessary trouble.

Xiao Ling heard a furry old demon cultivator next to him complain in a low voice: "What kind of human tricks are you guards trying to monopolize our supplies?"

After hearing this, Xiao Ling asked Xiao Xuan with some surprise: "Sister Xuan, do the demon clan also play this kind of game of black and white?"

Xiao Xuan pondered for a moment and replied: "This is not a gangster attack. Before the spiritual intelligence is developed, the demon tribe mostly follows the law of the weak and the strong. Unlike the human tribe, which trades for resources, they mainly obtain resources through plunder.

"However, it will be better under the rule of the demon king. The demon cultivators must abide by the demon king's order. This base camp should be the territory of the commander-in-chief they say. From the discussions of the demon cultivators, we can know that this commander-in-chief Your Excellency should be a highly respected demon king, and you should not tolerate the plundering of these demon soldiers. But from the current situation, it seems that the commander-in-chief may have suffered an accident or disappeared."

Xiao Ling looked around and saw that many demon cultivators were beginning to think about retreating. He asked anxiously: "Sister Xuan, we don't have much time. What should we do if these demon cultivators disperse?"

Xiao Xuan mysteriously took out a cup of steaming coffee from somewhere. She sat at her desk in the most elegant manner, took a sip gently, and then said unhurriedly: "Xiao Ling'er, are you in Reiki?" The world has been around for a while, but it still hasn't learned to observe the surrounding environment keenly. Have you not noticed that among this group of demon cultivators, there are more than twenty aliens who remain silent?"

After this reminder, Xiao Ling carefully looked at the demon cultivators around him, and soon discovered the mysterious demon cultivators wearing simple loose linen robes and bamboo hats. They were wrapped so tightly that their appearance could not be seen clearly, and at the same time, no aura leaked out, making it difficult for people to detect their cultivation. Xiao Ling was about to ask Xiao Xuan what was suspicious about these demon cultivators, but he saw that the wolf demon guards had begun to disperse the demon cultivators gathered at the door.

Although these wolf demons looked fierce, they were obviously restrained in their actions. They mostly used insults and threats to drive away the demon cultivators, without any real intention to use force.

As if she had anticipated the doubts in Xiao Ling's heart, Xiao Xuan explained in a calm tone: "You can just watch the show here with peace of mind. It's not your time to appear on the stage yet. Although these wolf demons are greedy, they don't seem to dare to attack the big demon king. It seems that the great demon king must have encountered an accident, but his death has not yet been confirmed.”

As the wolf demon drove away, most of the hundreds of demon cultivators gathered at the door were driven away, leaving only about fifty people. The remaining demon cultivators all appeared to be quite powerful, with spiritual energy on their bodies, and they all looked calm when faced with the siege of Nascent Soul realm wolf demons. The wolf monsters tried to intimidate them to no avail, but they did not use force against them. They just surrounded them and made no further moves.

As the driven demon cultivators gradually moved away, a tense and silent atmosphere filled the air. The more than twenty demon cultivators wearing cloaks remained motionless, while the other thirty demon cultivators, although they did not communicate with each other, took advantage of the previous chaos and quietly adjusted their positions to form a hidden circular defense formation. The surroundings are vaguely filled with the power of law.

An old man in a green robe, dressed like a teacher, walked slowly to the edge of the defensive circle, gave the demon clan leader a smile, saluted in the air, and said: "Wolf Guard, I haven't seen you for a long time. Thinking that you have now taken on the important task of guarding the center, I really admire you."

After seeing the old man, the wolf guard's green eyes flickered slightly, as if he recognized him. After hastily returning the gift, it replied with a bit of reluctance in its smile: "Mr. Huang, your caravan shuttles among the major demon kings, doing business, and is famous. It has not yet reached the agreed delivery time. I wonder why Mr. Huang is here at this time? Please rest assured that I am not deliberately making things difficult for you. This is also my responsibility. The center is being rebuilt. In order to prevent the human race from stirring up trouble again, I have to interrogate all visitors. "

Obviously, Mr. Huang's cultivation level is higher than that of the wolf guard, and it does not want to form a grudge with it. However, the Wolf Guard seems to have a backer behind it, so despite its polite words, it does not intend to give in easily.

Mr. Huang showed an elegant smile and moved his lips slightly, as if he was performing the art of sound transmission.

The expression on the wolf guard's face gradually lost control, and the wolf's mouth slowly opened wide. He was so surprised that he seemed to have forgotten to use sound transmission, and asked directly: "Are you serious?"

Immediately afterwards, the wolf guard realized his gaffe, and immediately shut up. After some quick thinking, he signaled all the wolf monsters to put away their weapons, and then opened an entrance on the barrier that was only large enough for two people to pass through.

It bowed its hands to Mr. Huang and said, "Please don't forget your promise after Mr. Huang comes in."

Mr. Huang chuckled lightly and replied: "The Wolf Guard is a member of the Mastiff General. How could I easily offend the Mastiff General? Don't worry."

The wolf guard seemed a little uneasy. He waved his hand and asked the demon soldiers blocking the way to move away from the entrance, allowing Mr. Huang and others to enter the center.

Mr. Huang walked toward the entrance without hesitation. The other demon cultivators also released their defensive postures, lined up neatly in two rows, and followed Mr. Huang into the barrier.

Xiao Ling originally wanted to follow in the footsteps of Huang Lao and others, but Xiao Xuan stopped him and said, "Don't worry, the fun hasn't started yet. Don't be the first to take the lead."

After hearing this, Xiao Ling looked at the twenty-one demon cultivators in robes and cloaks around her. They were still silent, so she also chose to remain silent.

After Mr. Huang led the people into the barrier, the wolf guard closed the entrance and asked impatiently: "What do you mean?"

At this time, a tall figure next to Xiao Ling took off his bamboo hat, revealing a furry tiger head. The wolf guard suddenly widened his wolf eyes: "Tiger... Mr. Deputy Chief Soldier."

The Tiger King glanced at the little fox beside him, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally, walked steadily to the barrier, and suddenly punched the barrier with a punch. Due to the use of the law of power, the barrier trembled rumblingly, and even tiny cracks appeared at the impact site.
