When Chu Hao and the others arrived at the Hell Medusa's Lair, the Solar Eclipse arrived. At the same time, in a valley not far from Agos, the Samsara Army's alarm sounded throughout the valley. All the Samsara Army soldiers were busy but not in disorder. They packed up their things, checked their weapons, and checked their vehicles and ammunition. Although there were many things to do, these soldiers were all well-trained elites. They finished their work in a short time and began to assemble.
This was the arrangement that Chu Hao had made before. When the Solar Eclipse arrived, the Samsara Army would set out to defend Agos City and wait for Chu Hao's return. At the same time, they would try their best to protect as many human lives as possible. This was an order.
General Bareton Fitast was already sitting in the command vehicle. He had been looking forward to this moment for a long time. Soldiers were meant to fight, and he was a man who had been fighting for his whole life. When he retired from the army, his spirit was completely drained in just a few years. He had become an ordinary, weak old man. That could be said to be the greatest pain in his life.
Ever since he had obtained the Lifespan Potion from the Renegades, he had begun to form the Samsara Army. These were the happiest days of his life since he had retired from the army due to old age. He was even happier than when he had first used the Lifespan Potion. This made him feel that his life had been fulfilled. He was truly living a life of flesh and blood. However, he always felt that something was missing.
There were no gunshots, no cannons, and no feeling of fighting for victory and survival on the battlefield …
But soon, this moment would arrive. Moreover, they would be the first of the Samsara Army to participate in the battle, and also the first human troop to enter the Dimensional Battlefield … This was an honor!
Bareton sat there, deep in thought. Not long after, there was a report that all the preparations had been completed. Except for the 50 logistical engineers who stayed behind, the rest of the soldiers had arrived and could set off immediately. The advance troops had already gone ahead to observe the battlefield.
The modern army was not like the ancient army. Any war plan was set in advance. Although there were various unexpected situations in the battle, the general goal would not change. Moreover, the plan was meticulous and reached almost every aspect. As a commander, he did not need to personally command the troops. He only needed to grasp the general direction. Moreover, the officers and sergeants he chose were all familiar and trusted people. At this moment, he was full of confidence in the upcoming battle!
But soon, he would not think so anymore …
With the beginning of the Solar Eclipse, the people in Agos City became more and more flustered. A large number of people gathered. Some people made trouble, some instigated, and some went berserk. The whole city began to fall into chaos. A group of people clamored to sacrifice the Princess to the God of the Underworld, Hades, to appease the God's anger and save the city.
But … their efforts were destined to be in vain.
This was the real world. It wasn't like in the movies where the plot was deliberately changed for the sake of excitement and tension. In this real world, the majority of people who had Dou Qi were either nobles or quasi-nobles. For example, warriors and knights. They could only be loyal to the ruling class who owned land and wealth, or they themselves were the ruling class. It wasn't that there weren't any Dou Qi users among the people, but there were definitely very few of them. It was impossible for them to fight against an army that had 80 to 90% of Dou Qi users.
Just like in the original movie, the people could easily break into the palace, kidnap the princess, and then prepare to sacrifice her. This situation was not absolutely impossible, but it required a lot of preparation in the early stages, as well as the participation of those with power. Otherwise, in this magical world with power that transcended the mortal world, no matter how many people rebelled, they would be nothing but ants. They would be suppressed by the ruling class with the flip of a hand. It was impossible for a peasant uprising to succeed like in the non-magical world.
The current situation was like this. When a large number of people gathered at the gate of the palace, the guards, the army, and the private army of the nobles were also frightened and dissatisfied with the royal family. However, in comparison, they were the same kind of people as the royal family. In their eyes, the people were even creatures similar to livestock. All the nobles would be hostile to the ordinary people who dared to rebel. Even if the rebellion was beneficial to them, they would suppress it afterwards. At this time, because the situation happened too suddenly, neither the nobles nor the army thought about how to deal with the royal family, so they subconsciously treated the ordinary people according to their thinking. A massacre at the gate of the palace began. Anyone who dared to cross the line or act excessively would be treated in this way. Under the suppression of the army with standard weapons and combat qi, even if the people were a hundred times more numerous, they would still be ants under such force. This was completely different from the farce in the original movie.
However, just because there were no internal problems, it did not mean that there were no external problems. Just when the solar eclipse began, the originally calm sea outside the port of Agos seemed to be boiling. The people at the port or who could see the port all stared at the sea with wide eyes. They saw countless monsters with a black death aura emerging from the sea like ants from a boiling pot. They looked like bats, but most of them could not fly. There were big and small monsters, but there were fewer big ones. There was a kind of monster with a black body and small bat wings on its back. Its appearance was somewhat similar to the demons in the Bible. There were also many other monsters. From the number of people who had emerged so far, there were at least 100,000 of them.
When such a dense group of monsters came ashore, the first to suffer were the people at the port of the city. They almost did not have time to make a sound before they were immediately drowned by the monsters. Occasionally, there would be one or two spots of light, which were the combat qi users fighting. However, there were too many monsters, and the light was quickly extinguished. It did not take long for the tide of monsters to surge into the city through the port.
Fortunately, there were gates and checkpoints between the port and the main city. The guards, who had been on guard since before the solar eclipse, immediately lowered the gates and cut off the road between the main city and the port area. They did not care about the thousands of people who died in the port area. In fact, the hundreds of soldiers here were already scared out of their wits. If it were not for the several generals who had combat qi restraining them, they might have already run away.
The hearts of those who possessed Dou Qi were also pounding. However, they were brave enough to rely on their Dou Qi. They thought that as long as they weren't trapped by the monsters, they could escape at any time. On the other hand, these people who possessed Dou Qi were either nobles or quasi-nobles. They all had large family backgrounds in the main city. If they collapsed here, their families in the main city would also be implicated. Therefore, on one hand, they defended this place to the death. On the other hand, they also sent people to report to the palace. At the same time, they also sent their trusted aides to rush to each other's families and ask them to immediately evacuate the city.
However, things developed faster and worse than they expected. When a large number of monsters surged out from the sea, the nobles and civilians had already fled outside the city. However, they soon found a large number of flying monsters guarding the city gates. Anyone who tried to rush out would be attacked and dismembered by the monsters. There were many of these monsters, and thousands of them were constantly attacking. With these inexperienced humans, they would only be surrounded and killed if they tried to escape. In fact, there were already thousands of dismembered corpses near the city gates!
The news of the monsters surging out from the sea, the port area had fallen, and the monsters had begun to attack the main city spread quickly in Agos. The first to react were naturally the nobles and royalty. They gathered their private armed forces, then left everything unimportant behind as quickly as possible and rushed to the city gates. However, they were blocked by the crowd and monsters at the city gates.
"Rush out! Drive those lowly commoners out first! Use them to open a path! "
No one knew which noble shouted, but the other nobles and warriors immediately took action. At the critical moment of life and death, they did not care at all. They used their swords and knives to drive the people out. The monsters outside could not distinguish between them and those who escaped from the city gates were attacked indiscriminately. In an instant, the ground was littered with corpses …
When the Samsara Army arrived, they saw such a scene. Everyone was at a loss. Yes, they were soldiers, and they were extremely elite soldiers. Under orders, most of them could pick up their weapons and point them at the innocent. However, they had never thought of driving people into a pile of monsters like this. After all, they were all people from the 21st century. This scene really shocked them. Then, they became angry.
But after all, they were not from this world. When the vanguard saw the situation and reported it, the massacre had already lasted for at least five minutes. A few nobles managed to break out of the encirclement of the monsters and even encountered the vanguard of the Samsara Army.
After Bareton learned of the situation, he was silent for a long time. A field officer next to him said, "General, this is a matter of another plane. Not only are the countries and civilizations different, but even the planes and worldviews are different. We are here to complete the task of stopping the monsters from attacking our plane. We can't easily become enemies with the ruling class of this world."
After a long silence, Bareton said, "Chu Hao gave me a few tasks before he left. One of them is to save as many humans as possible. Humans are not only the nobles in this world. I think he meant the ordinary people in this world. There's a saying in the East, 'When a general is away, he doesn't obey the orders of the emperor.' I think he has already made a decision about my command and decision since he appointed me as the commander of the Sixth Division of the Samsara Army. So …" Bareton was silent for a long time, and then he said, "So …" Bareton didn't say anything.
"This is my order! The Sixth Division of the Samsara Army, fire at all the monsters. Rescue and cover the civilians as they retreat. Form a blocking position on the spot. At the same time … "
"Shoot all those who take advantage of the chaos to rob, kill, disturb the order, and attack our soldiers and innocent civilians!"
