The hero of the full-time mage

Chapter 83 Dawn, the Beginning of the Imperial War

At one o'clock in the morning, the Beicheng District of the ancient capital was as bright as eight or nine o'clock at night.

The assembly horns on the outer city wall and the resounding whistle woke up the entire northern city in the middle of the night.

The residents quickly learned about tonight's situation from the mage's figure flashing in the sky and the roar from outside the city from time to time.

Beicheng District has encountered several invasions of monarch-level undead. At that time, it was the same as the scene at that time, and it looked like a war was about to start.

In such a situation, the ancient capital city in principle recommends that residents close to the city wall temporarily take refuge in the inner city in an orderly manner, just in case.

The same is true at this time. The mages in charge of city management in the city defense army began to maintain order at various transportation hubs in Beicheng District.

Faced with such a scenario that is not a drill, most people will go to the inner city, which is obviously safer, for the sake of their lives.

Zhu Meng, who was flying in the air against the flow of people, stopped his figure near the city gate on the main road of Beicheng District.

Just now, the meeting he urgently contacted with the Forbidden City did not go well, and he had a heated argument with some colleagues.

It is normal for Zhu Meng to publicize his ideas in such a tough manner. Some people say that he is too full of combat power, and there are always people who evaluate him as tough, arrogant, and unreasonable.

Whether it's praise or insinuation, whether it's belittling or hostility, Zhu Meng never takes it seriously.

At the age of forty, Zhu Meng already has his own anchor point in life, and he can accurately know what he really wants to do and take action.

In these years, he has always appeared on the front line of the dangers of the motherland, facing the ferocious monsters, and guarding the people of Huaguo behind him. If he only relies on his blood that needs to be praised, then he can't persist .

It's just that after every "verbal battle against the Confucians", I will eventually feel a little tired.

Zhu Meng scanned the area one kilometer ahead. There were already more and more flying mages in the airspace above the north city gate. The military commander Lu Xu was at the most conspicuous place, guiding the direction for the mages who spontaneously came to help from the city.

The monsters outside the city seemed to be still ready to go. Zhu Meng wanted to go directly to the North City Gate, but his eyes caught a convenience store that was still open at the foot.

He looked into the distance again. He had a premonition that this battle would not go well. He was even prepared to sleep here forever if he really had to face the entire undead empire.

That being the case, Zhu Meng didn't hesitate any longer, and stepped down, opened the door and walked into this not-so-small convenience store.

Against the background that people around him were constantly evacuating from Beicheng, the owner of the convenience store was lying on the rocking chair, looking very indifferent.

Zhu Meng also only took one look at the boss, then walked into the convenience store, took a large cup of pure flavor Baxi ice cream in the cold snow area, and then walked to the door of the store to pay.

And when he was about to reach the door of the store, a figure walked out of the passage beside him and walked in front of him.

"Coke, three yuan."

The boss's voice sounded, and he quoted the price of the goods of the person in front first, and Zhu Meng, who was holding an ice cream, met Du Xiao, who was holding a Coke, for a long time.

In the end Du Xiao raised his eyebrows, waved the Coke towards the cashier and said, "Together? Just treat it as my invitation."

……

After leaving the convenience store, the two tacitly walked to a corner with relatively few people. It was only one kilometer away from the city gate, and it took only half a minute to catch up with their speed.

Du Xiao unscrewed the lid, and there was a crisp sound of bubbling from the iced Coke. He raised his head and took a few sips before asking, "So, is everything going well with you?"

Zhu Meng shook his head with an ice cream in his mouth, swallowed a mouthful and continued: "It didn't go well. Generally speaking, many people think I'm scaremongering, especially at this time, it's only a few hours before dawn, and only one person who really shows up Only the monarch."

"Yeah, at daybreak, when the undead shrink back into the soil, Shayuan may continue to disappear. That's the reason for Chu Jia's stubbornness. Anyway, don't worry about things that haven't happened. Let's see if we can avoid them when they happen. I really can’t hide and see how to deal with it is best for me, and the last thing is to run.”

"Haha, Xiao Hunting King doesn't treat me as an outsider anymore. It seems that the elders of the choreographer usually talk a lot."

"Just call me Du Xiao. I only called old friends from the same generation as me. Others think you Zhu Meng is difficult to get along with. He thinks highly of you."

"Is that the King of Cold Hunting? Then I am very honored to be able to fight side by side with him again. The Forbidden City Palace West Shouhui will come. He has a study experience in the ancient capital. It is probably because of this that he supported me once." .”

"Xi Shou is here? Isn't it going well? Haha, Lao Zhu, I didn't see it. You're putting on a good show. Don't tell me it's going to be smooth if your chief and second seat come together."

"You have never dealt with Tianlu. If it is really him, then he will definitely awaken the entire undead empire. If no one at the top of the super-level can hold those undead monarchs, we will not be able to last long, let alone Let's hope it will come out."

"Tianzhu? It's highly rated, and I've heard about him. Anyway, I hope your guess is wrong."

Du Xiao threw the empty Coke bottle into the trash bin at a distance, looked at Zhu Meng, stretched out his fist with a smile and continued: "Also, meeting is worse than being famous. I am very happy to fight side by side with you."

Zhu Meng also had already thrown away the trash, walked to Du Xiao's side and also stretched out his fist to touch Du Xiao and said, "Me too."

……

When Zhu Meng and Du Xiao returned to the tower, Fei Jiao had already returned to the temporary command room ahead of time, and there were two more people in the command room.

One is Wang Qi, Chief of the Imperial Guard, who is also a second-tier powerhouse in the super-level domain.

The other is Lu Huan, chief guard.

At this time, Lu Huan stood in front of the sand table in the suburbs of the northern city adjusted according to the latest information. He was not restrained in talking and laughing, but gave all super-level mages, staff, and intelligence agents a great sense of security.

Lu Huan's presence here means that even in the face of the attack of the supreme monarch, the North City Gate will not be so vulnerable. This kind of confidence in dealing with extreme situations will greatly enhance everyone's will to fight.

At this time, apart from Lu Xu who was floating in the sky, there were already five super mages gathered in the command room.

Since there were some unusual movements at the other three city gates, Han Ji, who was in the center of the Bell Tower Magic Association, spread out the slightly weaker super-level mages to the other three city gates, and the main gate faced the north gate of Shayuan. , it is basically a super mage in the second tier.

And when Zhu Meng and Du Xiao informed everyone in the command room about the arrival of the reinforcements, obvious smiles appeared on everyone's faces.

Only when mages in other places hear that Shayuan is thirty kilometers away from the ancient capital can they stay out of the matter and say some nonsense calmly and calmly.

And when a person stands in this temporary command post and looks out of the city, the layers of defensive circles of the mages deployed layer by layer and the layers of undead in the distance under the searchlights, which are like a vast ocean, will use a kind of direct knocking on the soul. This method makes the body hot, the mind swells, and the soul trembles from time to time, letting people know that a terrible war is coming.

In this war, one cannot be too cautious.

It was two o'clock, and the undead monarch surrounded by the undead tribe had already arrived ten kilometers away from the city.

The chief staff member of the imperial guards, who temporarily acted as a temporary military division, calculated the time and distance, and then reconfirmed with the staff group, and said to the chief Lu Huan and the super mage present:

"Everyone, the ghost king on the opposite side has reached a position that is most suitable for beheading. Although it is still surrounded by many undead at this time, we can no longer let it continue to move forward."

The chief guard had already learned about certain situations through Feijiao before, so he and Zhu Meng Duxiao looked at each other for a while, and said, "Everyone, how about we go to the depths of the undead together and kill them?"

Zhu Meng, Du Xiao, and Fei Jiao all nodded their heads. Although the demon king was not very strong, he was surrounded by countless undead.

If the super mage doesn't gather a powerful force, they will only fall into the sea of ​​undead and be killed by endless undead to consume all their magic energy.

The four super mages then joined Lu Xu above the city gate.

Lu Xu had already organized a vanguard team composed of members from various forces before, and now that they had completed their rendezvous, they cut into the sea of ​​undead like a sharp knife.

……

A war may lead to the demise of countless bodies, and even prove the objective laws of the origin of the world. The operation of the world will not be affected by the joys and sorrows of human beings. The war between humans and the undead is only a periodic self-regulation for the origin of the world. Whether it is life or death is just a natural choice.

It's just that human beings have civilization, and many spirits and beliefs that transcend the body have been born between life and death. These inscriptions that can be engraved on history forever are the torch of human inheritance.

The military recorder sitting on the side of the temporary command room recorded everything that happened at the north city gate from an objective perspective.

"At two o'clock in the morning, super mages Wang Qi, Lu Xu, Fei Jiao, Zhu Meng, and Du Xiao led the vanguard into the undead tribe, intending to kill the ghost king."

"At 03:30 in the morning, the undead tribe broke through the third line of defense, only three kilometers away from the north city wall, and the ground more than [-] kilometers from the second line of defense to Shayuan was covered with undead. The chief guard Lu Huan contacted the bell tower The Magic Association is asking for help on a larger scale."

"At four o'clock in the morning, the mage group from the Imperial Palace arrived at the North City Gate, and quickly joined the battle, alleviating the situation where the second line of defense was about to collapse."

"At 04:30 in the morning, the vanguard led by five super-level mages successfully killed the ghost king and returned to the North City Gate. The super-level mages did not reduce their staff, but the vanguard team sacrificed more than half."

"At five o'clock in the morning, the sky began to rain, and the undead tribe's offensive was still fierce. The second line of defense was breached, only one and a half kilometers away from the city gate, and the super-level mages were forced to take turns entering the battlefield to clean up the low-level undead."

"At six o'clock in the morning, the sky was slightly bright, and the undead did not return to the soil uncharacteristically. The chief guard Lu Huan raised the purple alert for the whole city, and all the four districts began to move to the inner city."

"At 06:30 in the morning, the sky was completely bright, and it was confirmed that the undead were still alive during the day due to some reason. Then, there was a roar that penetrated the entire world from the evil abyss, and the corpse of the mountain as huge as a mountain appeared in the sky. Into the torrent of undead, at the same time, a overlord-level undead Lord Skeleton appeared in the sky."

"Under the leadership of the two monarchs, more undead spewed out of the evil abyss, and at the same time marched towards the ancient capital with a more fanatical attitude. At this time, it officially marked the transformation of the attacker from the undead tribe to the ancient capital undead empire. This point in time is also known as the beginning of the War of the Ancient Capital Empire."
