For a moment, the empire's soldiers panicked. Fear was written all over their faces as they shouted, "Don't come over!"
They wanted to turn around and escape, but they realized that the anti-empire soldiers had already surrounded them.
They were very familiar with this situation, as it had happened not too long ago. However, they had been the ones who had surrounded the anti-empire soldiers.
Lin Yun's appearance, however, took less than half a minute to completely turn the situation around.
"Brothers, let's go! Take revenge if there's a grudge!"
Now that Wei Ao and the four Wu Sheng soldiers had all been killed by Lin Yun, coupled with the innumerable casualties of the empire's soldiers, the anti-empire army was about to launch a counterattack.
The remaining tens of thousands of people were nothing to Lin Yun.
Although killing this group of underground people could increase his cultivation base, these tens of thousands of people were just a drop in the ocean for Lin Yun.
Lin Yun removed the Demon God Core Crystal form and returned to his normal state. He only needed to use a finger to kill the empire's soldiers casually.
This battle could be described as a one-sided massacre.
Although the empire's soldiers still had the advantage in terms of numbers, the super strength that Lin Yun had just displayed completely made them lose the confidence to continue fighting.
In a short period of time, tens of thousands of empire's soldiers had been killed and turned into yellow sand.
When the battle ended, General Zuo Han ordered the soldiers to clean up the battlefield and ran to Lin Yun's side without stopping.
"Brother, thank you so much this time. If it weren't for you, we would all have died here!"
Zuo Han bowed respectfully to Lin Yun and heaved a sigh of relief.
No matter how he looked at it, they would undoubtedly die in this situation, unless a stronger member of the anti-empire army appeared.
However, it was obvious that the anti-empire army's powerhouses had not arrived. Instead, it was the unknown Lin Yun who had appeared and saved them.
"You're welcome. I want to see your leader." Lin Yun went straight to the point.
Hearing this, General Zuo Han was confused. He asked curiously, "Brother, you are not a soldier of the Empire. Can you take off your helmet?"
Zuo Han was still worried that Lin Yun was a spy sent by the Empire.
After all, there were very few experts in the empire who had the strength of Wu Zun. It was impossible for him not to know them.
Lin Yun shook his head. If Zuo Han found out that he was the target of the humans, then he would lose the opportunity to get in touch with the leader of the Anti-Empire Army.
Moreover, he wanted to cooperate with the Anti-Empire Army, so he could not threaten or harm Zuo Han. Otherwise, he would become the target of both the Empire Army and the Anti-Empire Army.
Zuo Han thought for a moment, but he was still unwilling to give up on a talent like Lin Yun. So, he asked in a probing manner, "Brother, can you tell me why you want to see our leader?"
Lin Yun didn't hide this point. "I have a friend who was absorbed by the Underground King's' Devouring Crater '. He's missing now. I want to see if your leader can provide me with his whereabouts."
"Devouring Crater?"
General Zuo Han's expression changed greatly. As an underground person, how could he not know about the Underground King's' Devouring Crater '?
In his opinion, the Dragon and Phoenix Beasts had been absorbed by the 'Devouring Crater' just as Lin Yun had said. There was no chance of them surviving.
However, Zuo Han also understood that if he told the truth to Lin Yun, the Anti-Empire Army might lose a helper. So, he said tactfully, "It's hard to say … If you have time, I can take you to see our leader. He might know something."
Lin Yun had lived two lives. From Zuo Han's flickering and hesitant gaze, he could guess what Zuo Han was thinking.
However, he was still unwilling to give up.
If alive, he wanted to see the beast. If dead, he wanted to see the corpse.
"Then let's go. There's no time to lose." Lin Yun urged.
"Please wait a moment."
Zuo Han turned to give some instructions to a few soldiers before leading Lin Yun to the headquarters of the Anti-Empire Army.
According to Zuo Han, the headquarters of the Anti-Empire Army was not in the central region of the underground world, but at the border of the underground world.
The direction was the opposite of the first time Lin Yun and the others had entered the underground world. One was in the east, the other in the west.
The journey was long. During the flight, Zuo Han was very curious about Lin Yun and often found some topics to talk about.
"Brother, is this the first time you've killed someone from the Empire Army?"
"No, I've killed many before. There's also a group called the '24th Legion'." Lin Yun told the truth. In his opinion, telling Zuo Han about his experiences would make Zuo Han trust him more.
"Legion? And the 24th? "Zuo Han almost fell when he heard Lin Yun's words.
His shocked expression was reflected in Lin Yun's eyes.
"You're amazing, brother. After so many years, we could only destroy two legions. You single-handedly destroyed an entire legion." Zuo Han was not stingy with his praise and was even more determined to bring Lin Yun back to the headquarters.
Zuo Han also explained about the distribution of power in the Empire Army and some of the strong people within it.
Currently, the area under the jurisdiction of the Empire Army was limited to the central region of the Empire. Within this area, there were hundreds of cities.
There were a total of 24 legions in the Empire Army. Basically, there would be one or two Wu Shengs in each legion. Among them, the most special were six legions known as the 'Six Founding Legions'.
This was because the generals leading these six legions were all at least as strong as Wu Zun.
The legion that Lin Yun had just destroyed was actually the tenth ranked legion in the Empire Army.
Other than the Empire Army, the Empire had 80 small teams. The team leaders were all at least as strong as Wu Huang.
The city where the Underground King lived was known as the 'Imperial Capital'.
One had to know that the entire Imperial Army had 50 million soldiers, but the number of soldiers in the Imperial Capital alone had reached 5 million. The rest of the soldiers and legions were basically scattered all over the Empire, managing the various cities.
As the central region was where the Empire Army and its soldiers gathered, the Anti-Empire Army had no choice but to set up their headquarters in a remote village near the border. Moreover, the terrain was complicated. Coupled with the fact that it was a remote and desolate place, it would not attract much attention from the Empire Army.
"I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. Right now, we don't have much power to fight against the Empire Army. Therefore, regarding your friend … it's best to be mentally prepared." Zuo Han smiled bitterly. He wanted to give Lin Yun a mental preparation so that Lin Yun wouldn't hate the Anti-Empire Army for making a wasted trip.
