Far south, close to the border of the Holy Kingdom.
This is an endless Gobi Desert, but on the other side of the Gobi Desert is a lush forest, but this forest is covered by a towering city wall.
No one knows how this pure white wall appeared, since General Helauren was just an ordinary soldier and first stepped into this battlefield with the army.
The pure white city wall already stands on the border of the Gobi Desert.
General Helauren had heard of this pure white wall when he was still young. The older generation of the Far South Empire called it the 'Edge of the World'.
But after Emperor Persif took office, he used practical actions to tell everyone in the Far South Empire that what was behind the city walls was not just the edge of the world, but the existence of a country.
The battle between the Holy Light Kingdom and Far South has lasted for more than fifty years. The country has relied on this towering wall to resist countless attacks from Far South.
The situation today is completely different.
"Is the Blood Crystal Beast's vanguard ready?"
General Helauren sat in the command tent of the position and looked at the map of the battlefield layout.
There is only one entrance to Shenghui's border wall. General Helauren has led his troops to break through this narrow pass more than ten times in the past, but all failed.
In this situation, they began to try to attack by bypassing the border wall, but General Helauren discovered in despair that the wall stretched for more than a thousand miles.
He really couldn't figure out how the Holy Light Kingdom built such a magnificent city wall.
"It's ready." said General Helauren's adjutant.
"Where is Priest Michaux?"
After General Helauren confirmed that the battlefield deployment was correct, he asked about the whereabouts of Princess Mishu. She was one of the few priests in this position who could control the blood crystal beast tide.
But now the priest is missing.
"His Highness Michel is resting in his tent and has ordered us not to disturb him," said the adjutant.
"Rest? She's been resting for the whole day."
General Helauren sensed something was wrong and immediately stood up and walked out of the command tent, heading quickly towards the tent where Princess Mishu lived.
There was a seriously ill person in this position. The tent where Princess Mishu was located was in the center of the position. General Helauren did not care about Princess Mishu's order and directly opened the curtain of the tent and walked in.
The fluorite in the tent emitted a dim light. General Helauren glanced around and did not see Princess Mishu, but saw a small figure sitting on the ground.
"Who are you?" When General Helauren saw the strange figure, he immediately drew his sword.
The figure sitting on the ground heard General Helauren's voice and raised his head to look at General Helauren.
Its throat bulged and made a sound similar to the wriggling of sticky liquid. The next second, some distorted human language came out of its mouth.
"Big…brother?"
Not long after General Helauren heard its voice, he also saw the creature's appearance clearly.
It is a human being made up of viscous scarlet liquid. It should be said that it only has a human form, but the liquid on its body is constantly collapsing and reorganizing, just like slime.
It just doesn't have as good a body texture as slime.
A human-shaped...blood crystal beast
General Helauren's first reaction was this: this blood crystal beast not only has a human body, but it has also learned human language.
This made General Helauren feel creepy. When he wanted to draw his sword to chop the blood crystal beast, Princess Mishu opened the curtain of the tent and walked in.
"Hlauren! What are you doing to my child!"
Princess Mishu saw General Helauren raising his sword and instantly ran between him and the blood crystal beast, blocking the blood crystal beast.
"Child?" General Helauren put down the sword in his hand and looked at the blood crystal beast behind Princess Mishu.
It was looking around aimlessly, seemingly having no reaction to its surroundings. It was essentially a mindless beast that had merely learned human language.
"That's right, my child. It is the smartest of all the children," said Princess Mithra.
"Mishu, I reminded you that the Blood Crystal Beasts are just tools for war, and they have the same value as the sword and shield. Don't put your own feelings into them."
General Helauren did not hate the blood crystal beasts. He hated the people who treated the blood crystal beasts as lives or even as pets.
Princess Michaux was undoubtedly such a person, but due to his status, he could only educate the princess verbally.
"Cultivating blood crystal beasts is my job. I can feel that they have their own ideas." Princess Mishu did not like what General Helauren said.
"Take your children to the battlefield, it's time to feed them."
General Helauren said nothing more to the stubborn princess. He gave the order and walked out of the tent.
It was now late at night. General Helauren rode directly on his walking beast and led a cavalry team to gallop towards the distant border wall.
The closer General Helauren got to the city wall, the more he felt that the wall was not a human creation at all. At least it was impossible for the Far South Empire to invest so many resources to build a city wall that towered into the sky.
This kind of thing should be a product that only the legendary giants could build.
General Helauren stopped 500 meters away from the border wall. If he got any closer, he would be within the magical attack range of the Holy Light Kingdom.
In the past, General Helauren had to sacrifice hundreds of people to get close to the city wall, but today he just came to watch...
Watch the towering city wall collapse!
"It's a blood crystal beast!"
"Too many..."
The cavalry led by General Helauren fell into a brief panic, and a large number of monsters made of sticky liquid appeared on the left.
These monsters have different shapes, and many blood crystal beasts look more like a mixture of multiple animals.
They rushed towards the pure white city wall in the distance like crazy.
The sky was suddenly filled with scarlet mist. When General Helauren looked up at the night sky again... the moon in the sky had unknowingly been dyed scarlet.
An artificial blood crystal beast disaster has begun!
An alarm sounded above the border wall. Some people on the Holy Light Kingdom side had already reported it, but no matter how quickly they reacted, it was too late.
The rain of arrows falling from the sky was simply unable to stop the blood crystal beasts, and this group of monsters were not afraid of the various magical bombardments pouring down from the city walls.
They crashed straight into the pure white city wall. The first batch of blood crystal beasts that charged were turned into meat paste, but the second batch opened their bloody mouths and bit the top of the city wall.
The building materials of this city wall contain a lot of magic, which is why the Far South Empire has been unable to conquer it for a long time.
But these magical building materials became delicious delicacies in the mouth of the blood crystal beast.
Devouring...
General Helauren watched expressionlessly as the pure white city wall was gradually covered by scarlet color. If this trend continued, the border wall that had protected the Holy Light Kingdom for hundreds of years would collapse into a ruin tomorrow.
