Reborn as Xiao in another world, targeted by the little red bird

The next day, Xiao was ordered to recover from his injuries. Listening to the sound of gunfire and roars coming from all directions, he looked at the gloomy sky, and his golden eyes, which should have been sharp, were out of focus. Today's city defense formation was not activated. This was the first time that Li Cheng faced the monsters all over the mountains.

A voice in his heart told him that he couldn't just stand there and watch.

A gust of cold wind blew past, ruffling the ends of his hair. He came to his senses with a start, stood up from the stone chair, and bumped his head against the cold and hard wings.

Ling Xiao appeared out of nowhere and stretched out his wings to push Xiao back to his seat: "Do you really want to waste time here?"

Xiao gave it a look that said "Then why are you stopping me?"

"No, no, that's not what I'm referring to." Ling Xiao shook his head. "Do you remember the Servant I met the other day?"

Xiao nodded, motioning for it to continue.

"That sword has a sword spirit, and it comes from the Five Swords Realm of the Yufeng Sect." Ling Xiao suddenly changed the subject, "Have you heard that the Yufeng Sect was once one of the four affiliated sects of the Mingxin Pavilion, and would regularly send outstanding disciples to the Mingxin Pavilion."

"Mingxin Pavilion?" Xiao repeated. He felt as if he had heard this name somewhere before.

"Most of the disciples of Mingxin Pavilion, which was expelled by the gods, formed the Sea Sentinel." Ling Xiao explained.

"What do you want to say?"

Ling Xiao met Xiao's gaze and said, "With your ability, it shouldn't be difficult to escape from this encirclement."

Red Mandrill: "Of course."

"The envoy will not have only one servant under his command. In this city, besides you, who else can deal with servant-level enemies?"

Xiao fell into deep thought.

"That's good enough. There's no need to hang yourself on this tree." After Ling Xiao finished speaking, he stared straight at Xiao, waiting for his answer.

"Let's take another look." Xiao looked a little hesitant.

Ling Xiao saw that there was hope, and continued to analyze the disadvantages of staying. Because of the contract with the man, he had to follow Xiao. But this was the front line of the battle with the enemy from across the sea, and it was very easy to be infected with that strange power, which was fatal to it without the ability to open the firewall. It survived that devastating war, and it didn't want to die here.

Damn, why didn’t I realize at that time that this was such a crappy job.

As it was talking, it saw Xiao raise his head, but there was something wrong with his eyes.

"Are you done? I've felt more than once that you have an extra mouth. If you're scared, just stay away. If you keep talking, I don't mind fixing your mouth for you." After saying that, Hong Xiao left Ling Xiao behind.

"Shouldn't he? Given his sensitivity to danger, shouldn't he support my idea?" Ling Xiao muttered and chased after him.

On the way, Xiao asked Red Xiao for his opinion.

"I don't care. I'll be fine. If you don't want to leave those guys behind and want to stay, then go ahead. You might die." Red Xiao looked unconcerned. "When you die, no one will care about me. I can do whatever I want. I'll be free and happy."

Red Xiao: You don’t want me to cause trouble all over the world, do you?

Xiao hummed, and sighed in his heart that this was a really alternative way of persuasion.

"That's the last time."

Finally, they disobeyed orders and ran to the top of the city. There were several corpses of monsters on the wall, and painful wails came from below, but these soldiers could not move the heavy corpses at all, and they still had cannons to operate. There were more corpses under the wall, and some of the honorable ones were struggling in the beast tide. The splashes were the monsters they injured and sent flying.

Xiao put on his mask and joined the battle. The person in charge was General Beichen. He didn't notice Xiao's arrival at first, until he felt the pressure drop. He found Xiao, who was still injured, but just frowned and naturally assigned a task to Xiao.

He cannot wear this mask for long, but the strongest enemy is no more than the Zun level, so he can easily deal with it without activating the Jingyao Nuo Dance.

When the beast tide receded in the afternoon, the city lord called everyone to a meeting, including officers at all levels who commanded the operations, as well as some foreign aid from the civilian population.

"The beast tide retreated earlier today than ever before." President Qiao was the first to speak.

General Beichen continued, "Based on my observations over the past few days, I guess the duration of the monsters' attacks is linked to their killing efficiency. But the number of monsters didn't seem to decrease the next day, and our people and supplies were constantly being consumed."

Moreover, the injured people have been isolated separately. After knowing that people will mutate after being injured by monsters, he dare not let the recovered soldiers return to the team, but it is not convenient to deal with them directly.

"Did anyone say when the support from above will arrive?" someone asked.

"One week. They will be here in another week." City Lord Kang suddenly asked the people below, "How is the formation repair going?"

"It's not repaired yet." Someone answered hesitantly.

"Even now, are those immortals still watching the show?"

"That's normal. They always watch the show for a long time before taking action. Instead of counting on them, we should hope that reinforcements can arrive soon."

"..."

Everyone at the meeting expressed their opinions and cursed the immortals who were watching the fire from the other side of the river. Until the meeting was over, no suitable plan to fight the enemy was discussed.

After the meeting, because some things could not be announced to the public, the seven saints stayed and held another private meeting.

"The restriction on the storage bracelet that Xiao brought back has been successfully broken." City Lord Kang leaned forward and glanced at the other six people. "But the elixirs inside can't be used by ordinary soldiers. They can barely be used by the Venerable level."

"That is to say, the wounded cannot be released." General Beichen's eyes darkened, "I will secretly have people further strengthen the blockade of the quarantine area."

Lord Kang nodded and said, "As for the formation, we can only wait for the person Xiao brings back to wake up and see if he can tell us something useful. Our formation masters can't find the eroded parts. They can't tell which parts are eroded."

Xiao pondered for a moment: "Maybe I can give it a try."

President Qiao's eyes lit up: "Yes, Xiao can force the corrosive power out of the body, maybe he can be used as the eyes of the formation master."

Hearing this news, City Lord Kang was somewhat surprised: "You can try it after the meeting."

"Go right after the meeting? There's no need to be so anxious, right?" The lady boss said slowly, "How can you exploit others like this? Even if it's me, I'll at least let my people have a full meal first."

Lord Kang coughed lightly and said, "That's what I meant. I'll go after the meeting and dinner."

Everyone except Xiao expressed their opinions, until the scene was completely quiet. President Kang asked again, "Is there anything else you want to say?" Just when he saw that no one said a word and was about to say something, the young man's cold voice suddenly sounded, breaking the silence.

"I have a dance, maybe I can delay it a little longer."

If the duration of the beast tide's attack is really related to the killing efficiency.

"A dance? What dance?" Manager Qing looked confused.

Not only him, but others were also stunned.

The dean was the first to react: "Are you talking about one of your talents?"

Xiao nodded.

A talent that can delay time... In other words, if this talent is activated, the beast tide can be cleared at a very fast speed. If the guess is true, if enough beasts are killed before the beast tide retreats, time can be delayed. To do this, you need to rely on top-level spells and a very high realm. Wait, this talent could be from the previous midterm assessment...

"No. If you lose control in that situation, no one can save you." The dean expressed his opposition with a serious face and explained to others his understanding of Xiao's words. The result is self-evident, Xiao's proposal was unanimously opposed.

Xiao: “Oh.”

Afterwards, Lord Kang made arrangements for tomorrow's city defense, and Xiao was to guard the north gate. Afterwards, he handed Xiao a small stone, saying that it was a pair of two quick communication props, and the other one was at the core of the formation. If you find something wrong, crush it immediately, and the person guarding the core of the formation will immediately activate the formation when he sees the thing broken.

As for Lord Kang himself, he said mysteriously that he wanted to go into seclusion to try to break through to the king level.

"Aren't you only eight stars?" President Qiao looked at him puzzled.

There are nine stars in the Saint level.

Lord Kang did not give any further explanation and simply adjourned the meeting.
