Everyone, please give me a thumbs up, thank you!

When Ling Feng and the others heard that Zhao Hai wanted to attack a city, they couldn't help but stare blankly. One must know that cities in any realm weren't easy to attack. Now that the Extraterritorial Devils knew that there was an enemy watching them from the side, they would certainly strengthen the defenses of the cities. Would it be good for Zhao Hai to attack a city at this time?
Zhao Hai looked at Ling Feng and the others and said, "Everyone, we're here to eliminate the Extraterritorial Devils. Sooner or later, we will attack a city. Moreover, as long as we can take down a city, the things we obtain will certainly be more than what we can get from attacking other places. As for whether it's difficult or not, I think that you don't need to worry about it. Don't forget that we didn't use vines in our previous attacks. Now, when we attack a city, we can use vines to destroy the things in the city before we attack."
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng and the others couldn't help but shake. They remembered that when they were fighting against the Demons, they didn't use the vines in any other place besides the mountains. If they use the vines to destroy the city's transmission formation and defensive formations, then it would be much easier for them to attack. But Zhao Hai didn't use the vines at all. Instead, he used the vines to destroy the city's transmission formation and defensive formations.
Ling Du replied, "Mister is right. We'll have to attack sooner or later. So why don't we attack now? Teacher thought that we would attack the places where the Extraterritorial Devils are refining their artifacts. Their defenses in those places are very strong, but their defenses in cities aren't very strong. We can take advantage of this opportunity to take one or two cities and increase our experience in sieging." Ling Du nodded, then he said, "Alright, let's go.
Everyone nodded. Ling Feng looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Since Mister has already said it, then I presume that you already have a foolproof plan. Mister, please tell us which city are we going to target this time." When everyone heard what Ling Feng said, they couldn't help but chuckle. Zhao Hai had always been like this. When he said something, he would think of all the advantages and disadvantages of it. Moreover, he already had a foolproof plan. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said it.
When Zhao Hai heard Ling Feng, he smiled faintly and said, "I didn't expect you to know about my good points. Alright, then I won't keep you in suspense. Let's head to this place." Ling Feng nodded and said, "Alright. Then Zhao Hai moved his hand and a projection appeared in the conference room. On the projection, a red dot appeared.
Then the red dot enlarged, allowing everyone to see the appearance of the city. It was a big city with an astonishing population of 10 billion. It was divided into a main city and four citadels. Besides the normal population, there were also two garrison legions stationed on the mountains around the city. These two garrison legions were both standing legions. The total number of people in these two legions was about 70 billion.
Naturally, these two legions weren't just there to guard the city. Instead, it was because the mountain beside the city was the highest point in the vicinity. If the legions were stationed there, they would be able to support all the cities in the region in the shortest amount of time.
With a garrison of 70 billion and a population of about 10 billion, the available military strength of this city reached about 80 billion. In addition to these 80 billion people, there were 5 other cities that could support this city within 3 hours. Each of these 5 cities had a population ranging from tens to tens of billions. There were 15 cities that could support this city within 5 hours. These 15 cities could dispatch at most 100 billion soldiers. Within 10 hours, there were 37 cities that could support this city, which meant that the number of soldiers they could dispatch was about 200 billion.
These were the numbers before the war. Now that it was wartime, the population of some small villages had already gathered in the city. Now, the population of the city had reached more than 20 billion.
Moreover, there were several large-scale transmission formations in the barracks next to the city. These formations allowed the Extraterritorial Devil Race to transfer their troops to the city in the shortest amount of time. It can be said that the city that Zhao Hai chose was a tough one.
Everyone looked at Zhao Hai in confusion. They didn't know why he chose this city. No matter how they looked at it, this city shouldn't be the first target. It was because he was too strong.
Zhao Hai looked at everyone's expression and smiled faintly, "If we want to do it, then let's do it big. When we attack this city, we can eliminate at least 100 billion Extraterritorial Devil Race's population. Moreover, this city is famous among the Extraterritorial Devil Race. Do you know why they're so rich? It's because of pills! "
Pills! Upon hearing these two words, everyone's eyes lit up. If there was a ranking of the most important things in a cultivator's cultivation process, then many cultivators would place pills at the top. This showed the importance of pills in a cultivator's heart.
Medicinal pills were something that all cultivators couldn't do without. Especially some good medicinal pills, they were even harder to find. There were many alchemists with such high status in the realm where they came from. It was simply unimaginable. They weren't any worse than the sect masters of ordinary big sects.
Although the Extraterritorial Devil Race looked very different from the Human Race, the pills that they consumed were mostly the same as the Human Race. This could be seen from their previous spoils of war. Moreover, the Extraterritorial Devil Race mostly consisted of Human Race cultivators. The pills that these Human Race cultivators consumed were almost the same as the other cultivators.
If the city that Zhao Hai mentioned was really a city that made a fortune through pills, then it would certainly have a lot of alchemy facilities. This city would be a very good choice.
Zhao Hai looked at everyone and knew what they were thinking. He couldn't help but smile faintly and said, "This city has a very special name. It's called Medicine River City. Do you know why it's called Medicine River City? It's because of the river in the middle of the city. "As Zhao Hai spoke, he pointed at the projection.
Along with Zhao Hai's finger, the projection became bigger. A map of Medicine River City appeared on the projection. In the middle of the city, there was a large river that divided the city into two halves. This made the city look even more beautiful.
Zhao Hai pointed at Medicine River City and said, "Medicine River City got its name because of this river. The reason why it's called the Medicine River is because the water in this river is very suitable for refining pills. Alchemists who live in Medicine River City get water from this river to refine pills." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Medicine River City is named after this river.
After saying this, Zhao Hai paused for a moment before he continued, "The strangest thing about Medicine River City is that whether it's upstream or downstream, the river water is just ordinary river water. There's nothing special about it. It's only in this part of the city that there's a sudden change in the river water. If ordinary pills are added to Medicine River City's water, then the success rate and grade of the pills would increase. This is very extraordinary. Because of this, Medicine River City slowly became a gathering place for alchemists. It also became an important source of pills for the Extraterritorial Devil Race."
Everyone stared at Medicine River City with burning eyes. The attraction of pills to cultivators was too great. Even if these people were powerful, they still couldn't help but be attracted to it.
Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said, "Our goal is to attack Medicine River City. Once we conquer the city, we'll take all the pills in the city. But I have to tell you that you can take the pills, but you can't forget our goal. At the same time, when I tell you to withdraw, you must withdraw. If you don't, then don't blame me for being impolite."
Everyone's heart turned cold. They understood why Zhao Hai said this. The previous battles had been too smooth. This made everyone feel a bit sluggish. There were even some cases of them disobeying Zhao Hai's orders. This made Zhao Hai very dissatisfied. This time, it seems like Zhao Hai was prepared to rectify the military discipline.
Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said, "Old rules, we'll attack after ten hours. I'll send you the location of the attack later. Remember my words, don't disobey my orders. Otherwise, I'll be blunt. I don't care who you are, what your status is, or how many people plead for you, I won't be lenient. Alright, everyone, please go back." After he said that, Zhao Hai waved his hand. Then Ling Feng and the others stood up and left.
After they left, Zhao Hai returned to his room in the Heaven's Secret Pavilion. Laura and the others were waiting for Zhao Hai. When they saw Zhao Hai come in, Laura and the others looked at Zhao Hai. Laura opened her mouth and said, "Brother Hai, did you tell them? If anyone disobeys the order this time, then we won't be polite anymore. "
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "I've already told them. You don't need to worry. Right, did you figure out the situation of the Medicine River? Why did the river water there suddenly become suitable for refining pills? There must be a reason, right? "
Laura smiled faintly and said, "There really is a reason. Let's see if you noticed anything." Then Laura waved her hand as a projection appeared in front of her. The projection was on top of the Medicine River. Then the projection slowly zoomed in until it reached the bottom of the river. The water of the Medicine River was very clear and the river wasn't very deep. The projection went all the way down and soon reached the bottom of the river.
Upon seeing the bottom of Medicine River City, Zhao Hai couldn't help but stare. This was because there were a lot of strange rocks at the bottom of the river. On top of these rocks, there were some very peculiar aquatic plants. These aquatic plants were as thin as hair, but they were very long. Moreover, they were very soft and tough. They looked very special and very beautiful.
The projection stopped at the aquatic plants. Zhao Hai looked at Laura and asked, "Is it because of these aquatic plants?"
Laura shook her head and said, "No, it's not because of these aquatic plants. It's because of the rocks underneath the aquatic plants. A lot of people would be attracted by the aquatic plants when they see the bottom of the river. They would forget about the rocks underneath the aquatic plants. From what we can see, these rocks don't look special. But if we observe the river as a whole, we would be able to find something special."
