Chapter 179 The war begins
Lin Shen and his group followed Anu to the council hall, where two guards with swords stopped them at the door.
The guard recognized Anu and said, "Hello, young master."
Anu said, "We want to see the chief and General Gai!"
The guard said, "It's not possible for so many people to go up there. Only the young master can go up there alone."
Anu glanced at Lin Shen and others and said, "Okay." So the guards let Anu go.
Anu walked to the council hall, where the Nanman King, Gai Luojiao, and several Bai Miao elders were discussing matters. After Anu entered the council hall, she called out to the Nanman King, "Mother!"
The Nanman King took one look and said, "Anu, you're back! Where's the princess?"
Anu said, "Sister Ling'er is here too, and so is Brother Anos."
The Nanman King said, "Then tell them to come up as well."
Anu replied "OK" and called Lin Shen and others to the council hall.
Lin Shen stepped forward and saluted, "Anos greets the King of the Southern Barbarians!"
Zhao Linger also saluted the Nanman King. The Nanman King took one look and said, "You look so much like the Queen. My dear child, you must have suffered a lot along the way."
Zhao Linger smiled and shook her head, saying, "With my friends by my side, I don't feel the hardship at all."
After taking a look, the Nanman King noticed that there was something wrong with the way Lin Shen and Li Xiaoyao looked at Zhao Linger, so he asked, "Princess, could it be that you are...?"
Zhao Linger nodded. Although she didn't say anything, everyone understood what she meant.
Lin Shen felt that something was amiss and immediately changed the subject, asking, "King of the Southern Barbarians, when we arrived, we noticed the atmosphere in the city was very tense, with many soldiers patrolling. Did something happen?"
The Nanman King said, "Yes, the Moon Worship Cult is inciting the Black Miao to attack the city."
Gai Luojiao also interjected, "There are still several thousand soldiers defending the city, and the Five Poison Sect members can also join the battle. Their numbers are not much different from the Black Miao soldiers, but I heard that the Moon Worship Sect leader raises many poisonous creatures. This is the crux of the problem."
Lin Shen thought: The game didn’t mention how many people from the Moon Worship Sect came to attack the city this time, but the key to a ceasefire is to let Ling’er go to the Nuwa Temple to pray for rain.
Moreover, the city gate had been lost and the attack was about to reach the Nuwa Temple. Because the drought was solved by rainfall, the Black Miao people stopped attacking and fled in all directions.
In addition, after passing the trial cave trial in the game and returning to Dali City, the Black Miao people have already attacked. The situation is different from now. I hope to block their attack directly at the city gate.
Seeing that Lin Shen was distracted, Lin Yueru called him twice. But Lin Shen did not respond, so Lin Yueru pinched his arm.
Lin Shen finally came to his senses and asked, "Yueru, why are you pinching me?"
Lin Yueru said, "Who told you to be distracted at this time? What are you thinking about?"
Lin Shen said, "Of course, it's about how to resist the Black Miao's attack. Although I am the strongest among us, fighting a war and fighting in a group are not the same thing after all."
At this time, someone outside was heard shouting, "The Black Miao are attacking the city~~~!"
A White Miao soldier ran in, knelt down and shouted, "Chief, this is bad! The Black Miao are leading their troops to attack the city!"
Lin Shen said, "I'll go and take a look." After that, Lin Shen ran out at an extremely fast speed.
Sure enough, as soon as he walked out of the council hall, Lin Shen saw several huge rocks flying from the other side of the city wall.
Lin Shen complained, "Oh my god, it can't be a catapult."
He saw huge rocks falling one after another, destroying houses and killing countless soldiers and civilians. This was the first time he had witnessed war with his own eyes. He had only seen it in TV dramas or war games before.
The sound of huge rocks falling to the ground, the screams of people being crushed to death, and the crying and wailing of the Bai Miao people facing their dead relatives made Lin Shen furious, and his face suddenly turned black, like the bottom of a pot.
At this time, a huge rock came crashing down towards Lin Shen, and a soldier shouted, "Sir, get out of the way!"
Lin Shen looked at the boulder with an extremely angry look, shouted and smashed the boulder with one punch, stunning the Bai Miao soldier.
Lin Shen pointed outside the city wall and roared, "Moon Worshiper! I will not forgive you!"
Several more huge rocks came over the city wall and hit him. Lin Shen jumped up and kicked a huge rock into pieces.
Then he fired several luminous bullets, smashing the thrown boulders one by one.
At this time, a huge rock hit the city wall. Three soldiers screamed and fell off the wall, their brains bursting.
Lin Shen used the Moon Step to stay in mid-air and saw that the Black Miao people used three catapults to attack the city.
As a Black Miao officer outside shouted "Fire!", three more huge rocks were thrown over with a "bang".
Lin Shen simply waved his hand, sending out three slashing waves that smashed the boulder into pieces.
At this time, Li Xiaoyao, Zhao Linger and others also ran out. Seeing the tragic situation in the city, Zhao Linger was heartbroken.
Lin Yueru shouted, "It's all that damned Moon Worshiper's fault! I will never let him go!"
Li Xiaoyao, who worked as a waiter in a small fishing village, had never seen such a scene. All he saw were broken bricks and tiles smashed by huge rocks, or corpses that had already become cold and even unrecognizable.
Li Xiaoyao said, "This...this is too terrible. Is this war!?"
Jiang Wan'er had spent eighteen years in the Demon Locking Tower and had seen some scenes of mountains of corpses and seas of blood. She was relatively calm and said, "No wonder my benefactor didn't want me to come. So this is what's going on."
Anu said, "It's all because of that hateful Moon Worshiper. For his own ambition, he has put the people in dire straits."
Long You is the calmest among the group, because in the Yaksha Kingdom, wars with other demons are common, so he is not surprised.
He looked around and found that Lin Shen was gone. He said, "Where is Brother Anos?"
Only then did everyone realize that Lin Shen was missing. Just as they were looking around for Lin Shen, they heard a loud shout in the air. After looking in the direction of the sound, they found that it was Lin Shen who was blocking the huge rock thrown at him in the air.
Lin Shen shouted, "Since you like stones so much, I'll show you some power." After that, Lin Shen clenched his left fist, and his left arm quickly swelled and turned red, emitting a lot of red hot air.
Lin Shen used the Moon Step to fly higher and saw the Black Miao army outside, which numbered nearly 10,000 people.
It is said that "a force of ten thousand men covers the whole sky, a force of a hundred thousand men covers the whole earth and the sky." Outside the city walls, there was a sea of soldiers in Black Miao uniforms, along with three catapults.
Lin Shen shouted, "Moon Worship Cult, your doom has come!"
After saying that, Lin Shen threw a punch, which hit the Black Miao army like a meteor. With a loud "boom!", a catapult was blown into pieces.
At this time, the Black Miao soldiers outside were all shocked.
Then another heavy punch came towards this side, and in the blink of an eye, another catapult was smashed.
The Black Miao soldiers then realized that the situation was not good, and aimed the only remaining catapult at Lin Shen. With a shout of "Release!", the huge rock smashed towards Lin Shen.
Lin Shen did not dodge or evade, but stretched out his left arm that had turned into magma and caught the boulder.
After a while, the boulder turned red and emitted heat.
Both the Black Miao Army and Li Xiaoyao and others below were stunned.
Lin Shen shouted, "I'll give it back to you!" After that, Lin Shen threw the boulder back. With a "bang!" sound, the last catapult was also shattered.
After witnessing Lin Shen's terrifying strength, the Black Miao officers below drew their swords, pointed them at Lin Shen, and shouted, "Shoot!"
Hundreds of archers drew their bows and shot arrows, and then a rain of arrows attacked Lin Shen.
Lin Shen swung his left arm, unleashing a slashing wave wrapped in magma. Before the arrow even got close to the slashing wave, it was melted by the heat of the magma.
With a loud "boom!", the slashing wave released by Lin Shen exploded in the Black Miao army, and dozens of Black Miao soldiers were blown to pieces by the heat of the magma.
Lin Shen shouted in the air, "Moon Worshipers, the war has begun!"
