In the sky above the battlefield, the old man in green raised his hand and slashed out a wind blade that was a hundred meters long, cutting the three flying five-stage early-stage giant peak beasts into two pieces. Then he was suddenly stunned, glanced back, and said in surprise. : "Flying Horcrux? And it seems to be of a high level..."
Then he frowned slightly and said: "Only the soul has the strength in the late stage? Could it be that he is a junior from a big family? He is..."
"Don't worry about him, just concentrate on fighting." In the later period, the soul master slashed a long crack into the group of soul beasts in front of him with a knife, and directly killed the hundreds of soul beasts. He frowned and said in the gap between the knife and the sword, "I don't have time now. Regardless of the behavior of others, this time the beast tide came a bit suddenly. The signs in the previous two days were too slight and did not attract enough attention. We are the first line of defense. Although it is only a small area, we must stick to it. Come down! I believe there will be action in the Beast Suppression Pass soon, so try to stop as many soul beasts as possible!"
The old man in green turned his head to look at the soul beasts that were still pouring out in front of him, and sighed: "I'm afraid there are tens of thousands of them by now. This is the beast tide... Legend has it that the last time was more than two hundred years ago, the entire beast suppression Nearly half of the people who were detained were killed or injured. I didn’t expect that this time we would encounter... "
He sighed, but his movements did not relax at all. Three small wind blades were thrown out, saving a soul master who was accidentally injured and almost killed by a soul beast.
The battle has just begun, and it is already extremely fierce, with loud roars and constant roars. Faced with the crazy collision of soul beasts that attack everyone without reason, the soul masters are naturally much more organized, and many teams are cooperating. With an extremely tacit understanding, they were able to control their offense and defense for a while, but the spirit beasts in front of them were unable to move forward at all.
However, this is just the beginning...
…
Twenty miles east of the town, there is an ordinary village with about thirty households.
The people living here are the most ordinary civilians, even the lowest level among the civilians, because even the guards in Guanzhong have no place for them to live. They can only come here. No one competes with them for their houses and land, and no one comes to them. Where they want taxes.
This small village has existed for more than a hundred years, and the people in the village have always lived the simplest and most ordinary life.
Unlike the Brave Town, which is built at the entrance to the Soul Beast Forest where soul beasts are most frequent, this village is built in a relatively remote place. The so-called "remote" refers to a place where soul beasts in the Soul Beast Forest are rarely seen. Here , usually there are only two or three soul beast attacks in January, and they are all lower-level first- and second-level soul beasts. The strong men in the village can drive them away if they unite, and sometimes they can even kill them. If a level 3 or higher monster appears, everyone will have no choice but to hide and let it wreak havoc until it has had enough of 'playing' and returns to the Soul Beast Forest, and everything will be fine.
It’s just that these few days have been a bit abnormal. There have been three incidents of soul beasts appearing in two days. Twice, they ran past the village, and once they rushed directly into the village, and this time the soul beasts It was so powerful that it crashed into the village, destroying two houses and injuring several people, and finally passed through the village without looking back.
Until today, the villagers were shocked to find that a large number of soul beasts rushed out like a tide! !
At first, everyone only felt the ground shaking, and then someone discovered that a large number of soul beasts appeared on the west side. Fortunately, they were far away from the village. But soon everyone discovered that the scope of the soul beast army was getting wider and wider, and it was so dark that it reached Later, the nearest group of spirit beasts was only a thousand meters away from the village! !
And...the soul beast group is gradually spreading here!
When everyone in the village gathered in the central open space, soul beasts began to rush past the edge of the village!
Finally, a huge rhinoceros-like spirit beast smashed into pieces a house on the westernmost side of the village while running, and also hit everyone's hearts hard.
"Mom, I'm afraid..." A little girl with braids pointing upwards leaned tightly against her mother's arms and trembled.
"Don't be afraid, Xiaoqiao. Mom is here, and your father will protect us. It will be fine..." His mother hugged her tightly and whispered comfort, but her voice couldn't stop trembling, and her eyes were full of fear.
The elderly, women and children were all hiding in the middle. The men were standing outside with various weapons in their hands. Although everyone's face was pale and even trembling with fear, they held the weapons in their hands tightly and their eyes were full of determination. -It doesn’t matter if the house is destroyed, but the relatives behind you must keep it even if they die!
Xiaoyi bit her lip and squatted in the crowd. In front of him lay a middle-aged woman covered with a quilt. Her complexion was very poor. She was obviously seriously ill, but her right hand was still tightly grasped by her kneeling hand. Xiaoyi's small hands beside him comforted him with a smile: "Don't be afraid, Xiaoyi, we will be fine."
"Yes!" Xiaoyi nodded vigorously, and in turn comforted, "Don't be afraid, mother, Xiaoyi will protect you! We will all be fine! I still want to treat you! Brother Bai Yunfei has promised to help I’m looking for Tianxingcao, we have to wait until he finds the medicinal herb, and then we can cure your disease!”
Xiaoyi said, subconsciously looking up in the direction of the Brave Town, but only saw a dark field of ferocious soul beasts...
"Huh? That's... what?" Suddenly, Xiaoyi's eyes widened and he discovered something special. He saw a cyan light flying over from a distance, getting closer and closer!
Just when he was about to scream, the green light fell down in the blink of an eye!
"What... what?!" The green light that suddenly fell ten meters in front startled everyone who was already nervous. However, when the light subsided, everyone suddenly widened their eyes, revealing an incomprehensible expression. A look of confidence.
…
"Huh... have you caught up? Fortunately, the beast tide has not reached here yet..." The young man who fell from the sky in the light glanced at the direction of the Soul Beast Forest, and then whispered to himself.
Xiaoyi stared at the person flying in dumbfounded, and suddenly said in surprise: "Brother Bai Yunfei! It's you!!"
Bai Yunfei also saw Xiaoyi in the crowd, smiled at him, nodded and said, "Well, Xiaoyi, are you okay?"
Xiaoyi shook his head and said, "I'm fine!"
"That's good." Bai Yunfei glanced at the woman in front of Xiaoyi and asked, "Is this your mother?"
"Yes!" Xiaoyi nodded, and then said to the woman, "Mom, this is the brother Bai Yunfei I'm talking about!"
Looking at the hands held tightly by the mother and son, Bai Yunfei had a trace of trance in his eyes, and then smiled and said: "Xiaoyi, please stay with your mother, and protect her well."
"Of course!" Xiaoyi nodded seriously.
"Haha..." Bai Yunfei nodded, then glanced at the villagers who were still looking at him in shock, and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, everyone, I'm here to help. You just need to stay here, and the rest will be fine." , just leave it to me.”
After saying that, under the astonished eyes of everyone, he turned around and jumped up, landing in an open space several hundred meters north of the village, facing the Soul Beast Forest.
Bai Yunfei originally thought that when he arrived, he would see people running away in panic, but the behavior of these villagers made him a little surprised, and at the same time he was moved in his heart. He came mainly for Xiaoyi, but now he has changed some of his attention - He couldn't just take Xiaoyi away. The people here deserved his best efforts to protect them.
Not to mention defending with his life, but as long as he still had strength left, he decided not to let any soul beast harm the people behind him.
He held his hands together and pressed his fingers. There was a crackling sound, and he murmured to himself: "Fortunately, this is the edge of the beast tide. It is not as exaggerated as in the small town..."
"Then, let's test here how much progress we have made in the past two years!"
With a flick of his right hand, the fire-tip spear appeared in his hand. He looked up at the group of soul beasts that had appeared in the distance in front of him - full of fighting spirit!
