It was a very thin snake, thin and long. It should be no less than ten meters long, but it was only as thick as an egg. This was very abnormal.
In addition to its body shape, the snake also had another characteristic, and that was its color. This snake was white, pure white, without any other colors. This was also very strange.
However, Zhao Hai was certain that this snake was the commander of the beasts. This was because the beasts and snakes around the snake were protecting it.
Zhao Hai's figure moved as he rushed straight towards the snake. Moreover, the cone formation had always been with Zhao Hai as the tip. Wherever Zhao Hai went, they would follow. Now that Zhao Hai was heading towards the snake, they would naturally follow him. Zhao Hai's figure moved and rushed straight towards the snake.
The white snake also saw Zhao Hai's movements. It hissed, and the surrounding snakes immediately rushed towards Zhao Hai's group. However, Zhao Hai didn't stop. He rushed forward, but the weapon in his hand changed from a hammer to a saber.
The white snake underestimated the strength of Zhao Hai's cone formation. He thought that the snakes he sent out would be enough to deal with Zhao Hai's group. At the very least, they would be able to block Zhao Hai's group. However, he was quickly disappointed. The snakes weren't able to block Zhao Hai's group. Zhao Hai's cone formation was like a sharp awl. It pierced through the snakes in front of them and went straight towards the white snake.
The white snake was startled, its eyes flashed with fear. Then its body suddenly faded and disappeared. When it reappeared, it was already one li away from Zhao Hai's group. Moreover, it wasn't in the path of Zhao Hai's charge.
Moreover, before Zhao Hai could chase after it, the snake turned around and ran away. Along the way, the beasts immediately scattered and didn't attack Tang Ming's group.
After the beasts left, Zhao Hai's group immediately turned into a cube formation. Then their cube formation slowly flew towards Tang Ming's group. At this time, Tang Ming's group also turned into a cube formation and flew towards Zhao Hai's group. The two sides quickly merged and turned into an even bigger cube formation.
After changing positions several times, Zhao Hai, Tang Ming, and Wen Wenhai gathered together. Zhao Hai looked around and said, "This time, it's an alliance army. It seems to be the alliance army of the Hundred Beast Peak and the Spirit Snake Valley. Have you encountered this situation before?" The reason why Zhao Hai didn't disperse the group was because he was afraid that the beasts would attack again. Therefore, he wanted to wait until he contacted the surrounding plants and confirmed that the beasts had left. Then it wouldn't be too late to disperse the group. However, this didn't prevent him from talking to Tang Ming and the others.
Tang Ming replied, "We encountered it once. That time, we suffered heavy losses. This is the second time."
Zhao Hai nodded. At this time, he finished communicating with the surrounding plants and confirmed that the beasts had left. Therefore, he waved his hand and said, "Disperse and clean up the battlefield. The beasts have left."
Upon hearing Zhao Hai, Tang Ming and the others felt relieved. Then the cube formation dispersed and everyone began to clean up the battlefield. Zhao Hai, Tang Ming, Wen Wenhai, and the other officials gathered together.
Zhao Hai looked at Tang Ming and said, "How did you find out that those fellows were coming?"
Tang Ming replied, "The fifth squad discovered it. They were attacked by those guys. I think those guys wanted to attack the twelfth base, but the fifth squad happened to bump into them. They wanted to deal with the fifth squad first. The fifth squad immediately sent out an alarm, so we rushed over to support them. We also immediately sent you a letter." Tang Ming nodded, "That's right.
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Good job. I didn't think that the Hundred Beast Peak and the Spirit Snake Valley would join forces. This is the situation that I don't want to see. Foothold 12 is our communication channel with the headquarters, so we can't give it up. But if the Hundred Beast Peak and the Spirit Snake Valley really join forces, then our agreement with the Black Tiger would be nullified. Foothold 12 would return to its previous state, which wouldn't be good news for us."
That wouldn't be good for us. "Everyone nodded with an ugly expression. They can't give up on the twelfth stronghold. If they do so, then the headquarters would know about it. When the time comes, the elders of the headquarters would come to the twelfth stronghold. Therefore, the twelfth stronghold couldn't be abandoned.
However, this would pose a problem. If they want to defend the twelfth stronghold, then they would have to face the constant attacks of the beasts. In that case, their casualties would be very heavy. But if they don't defend it, then their communication with the headquarters would be cut off. This would make the twelfth stronghold useless. This would have a great impact on their future operations.
Zhao Hai looked at everyone, then he suddenly smiled and said, "What's wrong? Why are your expressions so ugly? Are you afraid of them? " Zhao Hai knew that this wasn't the time to attack these people. He needed to make them more confident. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to fight against the Holy Court.
Zhao Hai looked at them, then he smiled faintly and said, "You don't need to be too worried. In my opinion, this isn't a big deal. Today, you used the cube formation to fight against the beasts. What do you think?"
Although they didn't understand why Zhao Hai suddenly changed the topic from the twelfth stronghold to the cube formation, everyone still nodded excitedly. To be honest, today's battle allowed them to see the might of the cube formation. In addition to some people being injured, they didn't suffer any losses in repelling the beasts. This was something that they didn't even dare to think about in the past.
Zhao Hai looked at everyone and smiled, "The cube formation has infinite changes, but you're still not very familiar with it. But don't you think that the twelfth stronghold is the best place to train? If everyone only trains their own cube formations, then it's inevitable that some mistakes will occur in battle. But if we go through battle and train in battle, then the might of our cube formations will be even greater. Don't you think that's reasonable? "
When everyone heard Zhao Hai, they couldn't help but stare, then they couldn't help but think. They had never thought about this before, because they had been in the Mystic Realm for too long. They had never thought about using the beasts as a training ground, because in the Mystic Realm, the beasts were the dominant force. In the Mystic Realm, under normal circumstances, the beasts would launch large-scale battles, while people could only passively defend. Even if people went to hunt beasts, they would only look for the ones that were alone.
Because of this mentality, they didn't think about it. But now that Zhao Hai said this, they had to think about it carefully.
Zhao Hai and the others chatted as they flew towards the twelfth stronghold. Before long, they arrived at the stronghold. At this time, the people who were cleaning up the battlefield also returned. Everyone was very happy, this was because they obtained a lot of good things today.
Ever since the base was able to contact the Lost Soul City, everyone cleaned up the battlefield even more thoroughly. Those beasts, whether it was their skin or bones, they didn't leave anything behind. The meat was kept for consumption, the bone beads were kept for cultivation, and the skin that they couldn't use could be exchanged for money in the Lost Soul City. After the beasts in the Mystic Realm died, the bone fragments on their bodies would disappear. All of the beast skins looked no different from the beast skins in the Spirit Weapon Realm. Therefore, they weren't afraid of being discovered by others when they took these beast skins out to sell.
Zhao Hai was very happy to see this situation. Now that the others had learned from him, they wouldn't waste things. Everything was good in their eyes, this was also a good thing for them.
Everyone didn't plan to leave the stronghold today. They directly set up a big pot and stewed the beasts' meat. Wine was also brought out. After the battle, it was natural for everyone to drink and relax.
Zhao Hai, Wen Wenhai, and the others ate while chatting. They mainly talked about the stronghold. They couldn't give up on the stronghold, but Zhao Hai didn't plan to increase the number of people here. Less than 200 people were already enough. And just as Zhao Hai said, he wanted to turn the stronghold into a training ground.
Wen Wenhai and the others now agreed with Zhao. Stronghold 12 was a very suitable training ground. Although they felt the strength of the magic cube formation, they also felt that they weren't very familiar with it. Today, some people were injured because they weren't familiar with the magic cube formation. Because of this, the beasts took advantage of this opportunity to injure people. Today, the beasts they faced weren't very smart. If they faced smart beasts or people, then today's losses would have been even greater. The casualties might have been very heavy.
The battlefield was completely different from normal training. During normal training, perhaps everyone did a good job, maintaining the formation, the distance, and the speed were just right. But on the battlefield, with the tense atmosphere and the enemy's attacks, it was inevitable that their movements and speed would change. As a result, the distance between the people in the front and the people behind would also change. If they were familiar with the battlefield, then they would be able to make adjustments on their own so that there wouldn't be any flaws in the formation. This way, the formation would be able to maintain its normal operation. And a normal formation would be very difficult to break.
However, because they were not familiar with the changes on the battlefield, when they were attacked by the enemy, the changes in their movements, speed, and distance would cause flaws to appear in a perfect battle formation. Such flaws could be easily exploited by the enemy.
The wild beasts they had fought today were not the strongest. If it had been a group of strong wild beasts, they would have definitely suffered casualties. And don't forget that Zhao Hai's main enemy in the future would be the people from the Sacred Academy. They would be experts at the Breaking River level. Breaking River experts were much more difficult to deal with compared to the beasts.
