Chapter 7245 Encountered

At this moment, whether it was Jiang Guang, Zhao Ying, or the first generation of Ruishi, their faces turned somewhat pale, because they could all fully understand what it meant for a demon god to have weapons and equipment, especially the weapons that Chen Xi had created at this stage, which were truly terrifying.

What kind of body is tempered through countless trials? Faced with the weapons made by Chen Xi, unless the gap is truly too great, a single blow will break through your defenses, even if you have trained to the level of Jiang Guang. It's unthinkable that a Seventh-Level Demon God would be equipped with such weapons.

"Damn it, why are weapons being transported from Yunmeng? Who gave this order?!" Wu Yu cursed without thinking. This was practically a death sentence for them.

"This is the normal order, because there's the Yunmeng Marshland here, a thoroughfare. Many times, when traveling from Yangzhou to Jingzhou, people would go through Yunmeng by water. In the past, Yunmeng was mostly inhabited by dragons, and you know how rampant the small worlds are now. People would definitely take the routes they usually travel." Wei Jun, after all, had traveled all over the country and had really seen it all. He knew everything and gave the answer right after Wu Yu finished cursing.

At present, the proliferation of small worlds caused by the previous round of demon master calamity has not been resolved, but the problem is not so serious anymore. At least the problem of isolation no longer exists.

Especially on the Han Dynasty's side, after the problem of the proliferation of small worlds appeared, the first thing they did was to send elites to find a way to explore, and then use Xuanxiang, Nine Heavens Palace, super cannons and other means to blow up all the small worlds on the way.

After such a long period of effort, there are no more small worlds on the main roads, whether by water or land. However, you will inevitably encounter them after leaving the main roads. But in these places that humans often go, the small worlds have basically been evaporated.

Even after eliminating these places, there are still a lot of small worlds left, especially in the deep mountains and forests. This is why ferocious beasts that have reached the stage of internal energy separation often rush out. To put it bluntly, in the past, when they stayed on the ground, humans would keep an eye on them and deal with them one by one. Now that there are small worlds, ferocious beasts that have not yet reached the stage of internal energy separation can enter and develop to the stage of internal energy separation inside. They might then come out and cause a lot of trouble.

However, Chen Xi doesn't have a good solution for dealing with the small worlds at the moment. The Menger sponge structure means that attacking the small worlds with conventional methods will only further increase their number. Therefore, at this stage, he can only abandon the deep mountains and forests and focus on the main roads to ensure the connection between the various regions. As for the small worlds being turned into blessed lands by the ferocious beasts, let's leave it at that for now and deal with it later.

After all, why would a ferocious beast enter a small world to develop? Anyone with a brain knows that this is another effect of the world consciousness curse. The beasts have gained human knowledge to a certain extent and have unique development time and space.

Currently, both Rome and the Han Dynasty believe that in the next two or three years, they may encounter a large-scale internal beast tide, and this time will not exceed five years at the latest. This is because, with a five-year cycle, under suitable conditions, some top-tier Qi-refining beasts should have already developed enough to leave their bodies with internal Qi.

With the blessing from the unconscious world consciousness, plus the fact that the beasts don't face the same complex mental tests as humans when breaking through their limits, five years should be enough time for the beasts to accumulate a formidable force.

Chen Xi agreed with this assessment, but he was currently unable to spare the time and was also unable to venture into the deep mountains and forests to explore the small world, so he had to put it aside.

“There are only a few roads in Yunmeng. Water transport is unavoidable; we can only take those few routes. It’s impossible to open up new routes at will,” Zhang Wen explained in a deep voice.

In fact, not to mention the deep mountains and forests, there are many small worlds that are intertwined and overlapping in places where humans rarely go. Even before there were small worlds, water and land transportation tended to take the old routes, so transporting weapons through Yunmeng was a very normal situation.

Even assuming the local government was unaware of the existence of a demon in Yunmeng, they were simply following orders. It's just that when the military equipment was initially deployed, the demon in Yunmeng hadn't yet manifested, but now it has.

"How much weaponry?" Wu Yu reviewed the situation in his mind and realized that he hadn't said anything quite right, but now was not the time to dwell on that. He had to rush over and retrieve the weapons and equipment, otherwise it would be troublesome if these demons got their hands on them.

Forget about the armor issue; a demon god wielding a giant sword is enough to give anyone a headache. That's a seventh-level demon god. As long as you have enough strength, the angle of your strike is right, and you have a bit of talent, you can really unleash a shockwave. That's a strong person's test. The problem is, there are only a few strong people. One shockwave and a weakling without armor will die on the spot.

"They say it's around 10,000 people." Zhao Ying's face turned pale; he had also read the official gazette.

To be honest, Zhao Ying, as the deputy director of the street office, was not qualified to read this kind of official gazette. Even Jiang Guang, a military officer of Zhongshan Wuji, was not qualified. In theory, this kind of thing could only be seen by the local garrison officers and the key garrison personnel passing by.

The problem was that the situation was urgent and expedient measures had to be taken. In addition, Zhang Wen himself was a military officer stationed in the area, and he had the responsibility to supervise these military equipment. As a captain with a salary of two thousand piculs of grain, he should theoretically be required to board the ship to inspect the equipment and sign off on its passage.

Of course, that was when Zhang Wen was exercising his authority as a captain. At present, Zhang Wen is on leave. His original idea was to wait for the ship of military equipment to arrive, and then he would take his wife and children to hitch a ride. After all, his rank was high enough. In this kind of military transport, the more tough guys on their ship, the better. And Zhang Wen, after all, is considered to be at the top level.

The simplest point is that, including Jiang Guangshou, there are currently ten tough opponents present. Zhang Wen can at least beat two of them and withstand three or four of them. Do you understand what it means to be top-tier?

"Damn it, even if we go, we won't be able to bring anything out!" Wei Jun's face darkened. He was a man with some ideals and a sense of responsibility. Moreover, having traveled all over the country as a wanderer, Wei Jun knew very well that when the country was in trouble, he had to step up this time.

But now the problem is that he is just one person. His combat strength may be equivalent to that of a hundred laborers, but a hundred laborers are definitely much better than Wei Jun in transporting supplies. If it is the equipment of the Shield Guards, Wei Jun simply cannot think of how to move tens of thousands of sets of weapons out.

"Let's go ahead. There are people on the ship too. Our task is mainly to help those people on board defend themselves and make sure the ship can get away," Wang Mao said expressionlessly, his mind clear.

“That makes sense. The protection of large ships is reliable. Even on the river, the ships running on Yunmeng's side are mainly fifth and sixth generation, but they still have an overwhelming advantage over individuals. Our purpose in going there is more to let them know what kind of situation they are facing and to let them prepare.” Guangyuan also realized what the situation was like this time. If they relied on their strength to hold out, they definitely couldn't hold out. If those Yunmeng guys really swarmed in, even if there were ten more of them, it wouldn't make a difference.

Despite being elites, and the fact that the demon god of Yunmeng doesn't yet have armor, in essence, the demon god of Yunmeng is on the same level as them.

"Then what's the point of talking? Let's go!" Jiang Guang said in a deep voice.

"Do you have any armor here? Prepare a set for him. Without armor, although he has the combat power of the seventh level, his advantage in close combat is not very obvious," Zhao Ying said, pulling Zhang Wen along.

To be fair, this behavior also violates the regulations.

Just like the incident when Empress Xiao borrowed armor, even though it was later determined that Empress Xiao's actions were correct and did indeed solve a great problem for the Han Dynasty, the old soldier guarding the armory who lent the equipment to Empress Xiao was punished, although he was later promoted.

This is enough to show that the use of weapons and equipment by top veterans requires approval. Zhao Ying's approval points are in Chang'an and Zhongshan Wuji in Jizhou. In other places, unless Zhao Ying has a note from Chang'an, he cannot obtain armor.

After all, Zhao Ying was easy to overwhelm with ordinary militiamen even without armor, but with armor, to be honest, ordinary militiamen really had no way to deal with her.

Just look at how many times Jiang Guang charged back and forth in the Ganges, and in the end, he didn't even break through the armor. This shows how big the difference is between having armor and not having armor, and between having armor and a fortress.

Over the years, Zhao Ying has been able to wear the fortress thanks to her hard work and the pressure from Jiang Guang. The problem is that Zhao Ying's combat power is only so-so when she wears the fortress. But what if Jiang Guang, who has now completed the flesh-and-blood coating, also wears the fortress?

Putting aside everything else, Zhao Ying's overall combat effectiveness will increase by at least 80%.

"I have spare armor here." Zhang Wen glanced at Jiang Guangshou but didn't say anything. He would punish him if necessary. If those things in Yunmeng really stole his equipment, it wouldn't just be a matter of punishment; it would be a matter of people dying.

Being punished means the person is still alive; if the person is dead, then there's no need for punishment at all!

Zhang Wen secretly opened the armory and distributed armor to all the village militiamen. He then made a fortified suit for Jiang Guangshou and put one on himself as well.

"Wait, how come your lousy village has a fortress?" Zhao Ying originally thought it would be good enough if she could get Jiang Guangshou a full set of armor, but when she entered the village's militia armory, she found that there were actually two fortresses. Zhao Ying was stunned. This is not right. Each fortress has a number!

"Stop talking nonsense." Zhang Wen said irritably, "This set is smaller. It's the one I used before I got the muscle-building injections. It's a 320 full armor set. This set is a little lighter than the one I'm using now. It's the one I used before I used the secret medicine to strengthen my internal organs. It's a standard 380 full armor set. This set is currently 440. Let this brother choose one."

“Then I’ll wear this.” Wu Yu pointed to the smallest size fortress and said. He was different from Wei Jun. Wei Jun was a wanderer of the world, and he always wore a full set of equipment. Although it wasn’t fortress-level, it was at least heavy armor. When Zhao Ying, Jiang Guang, Jing Yuan and the others came, Chen Xi naturally prepared fortresses for them as well. Only the three first-generation elite warriors could not wear fortresses, so they could only be given heavy armor, and their weapons were replaced with custom-made divine weapons.

However, Wu Yu, as the cavalry instructor of Youzhou, had taken leave. Even if he could use long weapons and ordinary armor, it was impossible for him to be surrounded by fortresses. Therefore, among this group, the one with the worst equipment was Jiang Guangshou and Wu Yu.

However, compared to Jiang Guangshou's physical abilities, Wu Yu felt that wearing the smaller version of Zhang Wen's old fortress would be fine.

“Alright.” Without thinking, Zhang Wen handed over the well-maintained fortress hanging on the wood to Jiang Guangshou and Wu Yu, and then the two of them quickly donned their protective gear.

"To be honest, I don't even know this brother's name," Zhang Wen said to Jiang Guangshou after putting on his fortress.

“That’s Zhao Ying’s flesh-and-blood coating incarnation. It’s ridiculous, but you probably can’t beat it,” Jiang Guang said irritably. “To be honest, it wouldn’t be easy for me to defeat it now.”

After Zhao Ying acquired the advanced demon god flesh coating, her combat power increased significantly. She basically possessed the ability to seize an opportunity and quickly kill a seventh-level demon god. In addition, the combat power and explosive power of the demon god Jiang Guang Beast were extremely terrifying. With the armor, she was basically a bulldozer on the battlefield. She might be slightly inferior to Jiang Guang in terms of defense, resistance, and adaptability, but the demon god Jiang Guang Beast's super recovery ability made up for this.

Therefore, in terms of explosive power and performance on the battlefield, he was indeed not much inferior to Jiang Guang.

Theoretically speaking, the Demon God Jiang Guang Beast alone has reached the seventh level. Combined with Zhao Ying's own combat power, which is also close to the seventh level, and her special will attack, it is theoretically not difficult to defeat an opponent who is also at the seventh level.

However, a problem has arisen now: when the demon god Jiang Guang is beaten by Jiang Guang, assimilation is likely to occur. This is because Jiang Guang's talent base can trigger the assimilation CG after the demon god's defeat. As a result, when Zhao Ying fights others, his performance is currently more exaggerated than Jiang Guang's, but when he fights Jiang Guang, it is basically like giving away his life. Zhao Ying is extremely helpless about this.

After all, the killer move I painstakingly devised would actually trigger assimilation and defeat CGs with Jiang Guang. Damn it, all my efforts felt meaningless. Even if I improved to the point where I could kick Wei Shuang like a ball and go head-to-head with Sun Er, it was all for nothing!

To reiterate, the fully armored demon god Jiang Guang Beast, with its super strong defense, constantly activated Heavenly Demon Disintegration, and inhuman medium-speed regeneration, possesses combat power that is definitely at the top level of the seventh level. However, that is against anyone other than Jiang Guang, not against Jiang Guang himself.

This is an absolute humiliation for Zhao Ying!

"Don't listen to that guy. He's just talking. If you believe him, you're an idiot," Zhao Ying said irritably. He and Jiang Guang had already tested it before. If Jiang Guang didn't use the second stage of the Heavenly Demon Disintegration and only used the first stage of the Heavenly Demon Disintegration to fight Jiang Guang Beast, Jiang Guang Beast would most likely win.

Because of Jiang Guang's strength in endurance, defense, and regeneration, it has an advantage over Jiang Guang.

But who made Jiang Guang have a second stage, a second stage Heavenly Demon? With three strikes, the Demon God Jiang Guang Beast surrendered to the Super Demon God Jiang Guang, and sincerely wanted to become Jiang Guang's dog!

This kind of "dog-like" behavior wasn't something Zhao Ying forced; it was genuine, an active desire to dedicate everything to being a dog. Zhao Ying was speechless, feeling utterly humiliated!

"This thing is Brother Zhao's Shadow Soldier? A Shadow Soldier is stronger than me? Is there any justice in this world? All my efforts over the past thirty years!" Zhang Wen was dumbfounded. Although he wasn't sure how strong this thing was because they hadn't fought, Jiang Guang said that even he had a hard time defeating it, so it was definitely stronger than Zhang Wen. The problem was that this was a Shadow Soldier!

"The new version of the Shadow Slayer, Brother Zhao has brought this thing to a whole new level, to its peak." Jiang Guang shouldered his door-panel broadsword and charged out, saying as he went. The others followed him and rushed out, because time was of the essence. If they were too late, the Demon God would be equipped and armed, and they would be in serious trouble.

"To be honest, it's true," Zhang Wen said in a deep voice.

“It’s fine for anyone else to say this, but for Jiang Guang to say it like that is just sarcastic and sarcastic,” Zhao Ying said as she ran behind Jiang Guang.

"No, really. I really admire what you came up with. If it weren't for my own special abilities, to be honest, I really wouldn't be able to defeat it." Jiang Guang spoke the truth. He beat up Zhao Ying in Zhongshan Wuji, but that was a matter within his own neighborhood office. However, when he came out, he still had to give his brother face.

"Tsk!" Zhao Ying clicked his tongue lightly, saying nothing. He was very satisfied with the Demon God Jiang Guang Beast, but unfortunately, he couldn't beat Jiang Guang. With this thing, he could easily defeat other seventh-level demons, but Jiang Guang had a special attack against demon gods, making it easy to force the demon gods into surrendering by brute force, which was very frustrating.

In the Yunmeng region, six large ships, protected by more than a dozen escort vessels, moved slowly forward.

"Captain, there seems to be some unusual activity ahead. We suspect it's a local ferocious beast. Our long-range perception indicates that its strength is quite terrifying." The lookout immediately notified his captain after discovering the unusual activity ahead. "Furthermore, our special perception techniques have detected a large number of lurking creatures ahead."

"Are there still people raiding warships these days?" Lian Yue said in a deep voice. "Have everyone be on high alert, and prepare the ship's cannons. No matter what kind of ferocious beast or anything else appears, open fire immediately without hesitation!"

"This?" The attendant taking notes was taken aback for a moment, but in the end he didn't say anything. After all, the captain was the highest authority on the ship, and whatever the other party said was the final word.

"What is that?!" Just after Lian Yue gave the order and the crew members were on high alert, the lookout suddenly shouted, "Everyone be careful! There is a large ferocious beast ahead, estimated to be at the Inner Qi Departure level. Fifteen degrees to the west, a large number of unknown ferocious beasts are emerging!"

"Fire!" Without uttering a single unnecessary word, Lian Yue fired the cannon!

Run away, run away
