Lin Xi was undoubtedly very powerful. The City Lord of Saint City represented his status. Five golden dragon guards riding on a golden spaceship meant that he was very rich. Whether it was the scales of the golden dragons or the gold on Vimona, they were all very valuable.
A person with power, status, and money naturally attracted people. Even Zhu Wanying, the number one female expert in the capital, who had the arrogance of Empress Wu Zetian, took the initiative to greet him. Empress Hancock's pair of beautiful eyes kept sizing up Lin Xi.
Su Hongying's gaze immediately fell on Zhu Wanying and Hancock. As a female and equally powerful, she still cared about her own kind.
"Zhuge Liang?"
Lin Xi saw the four-wheeled vehicle.
At this time, Zhuge Liang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and returned to his original calm demeanor. "Are you Lin Xi?"
"Yes."
"I have long heard of your great name. It is my honor to meet you today!" Zhuge Liang raised his hands and bowed.
To be called "long heard" by a legendary figure in history, Lin Xi was still very flattered. He quickly bowed and said, "Well said, well said."
Zhuge Liang smiled and did not say anything.
Lin Xi was used to being stared at by a group of people and did not feel uncomfortable. He smiled at the crowd and then looked down at Jinling City. The eleven legions were lined up in various formations. That kind of iron and blood, the strict and desolate atmosphere was much more handsome than the Macedonian and Spanish phalanxes in Europe.
"The army is not bad." Lin Xi praised.
At a glance, the total number of the eleven legions was estimated to be at least thirty thousand. The key point was that these were not the militia of Shen City, but the real elites! These people, even the weakest soldiers, were above level ten.
"How can the army of our Jinling City of Three Kingdoms be weak?"
Speaking of the army, Zhao Shiyi pointed to the city with some pride. "We have more than fifty thousand soldiers in reserve. During the war, we can replenish the eleven legions at any time or enter the battlefield to stabilize the situation. In addition, we have a few special forces."
"The undead army should be at least a few million, right?" Lin Xi was a bit regretful. "It would be a waste to send such soldiers and generals to fight the undead to the death."
"They won't be the ones to die. It'll be the one-off army. For example, some of the strategists have summoning skills. In addition, we've accumulated quite a number of commander's seals. However, in war, many soldiers will definitely die. There's nothing we can do about it."
Zhao Shiyi sighed. Then, he shook his head and said, "This city has their wives, children, parents, and friends. When it's time to stand up, we have to. This is not only for the city, but also to protect our families."
"They are all cannon fodder."
Li Jianren interrupted, "No matter how strong the Jinling army is, even with the help of the defense towers and ordinary evolvers, they won't be able to fend off millions or even tens of millions of ghouls. You should know that there are advanced units among the ghouls."
"The true deciding factor of this war is us experts. If we can kill Karsus and the other Shadow Island BOSSes, we will win this war. If we can't, we will lose this war."
"The wheel of history is driven by us!"
Li Jianren's eyebrows danced as he spoke, his heroic spirit reaching the clouds. When he saw the surrounding people all look at him with disdain, he hurriedly said to Lin Xi with an embarrassed smile, "However, in the end, it was still your esteemed self who pushed for this. Back then, when New Akatsuki attacked Shen City, weren't they eliminated by your esteemed self? How can I compare to you? "
He could be considered a super expert. Shushan City was famous among many special cities. A top swordsman from this city was actually shamelessly flattering others.
Golden Armor and Zhu Wanying looked at him with disdain.
Lin Xi ignored Li Jianren and asked Zhao Shiyi, "How much longer until the undead army arrives?"
"Intelligence personnel are monitoring the situation. The vanguard of the army has already passed by several strongholds. Unfortunately, the Shadow Cloud is obstructing detection spells and spy satellites. We can't determine the location of the Shadow Island's floating islands. In addition, the biochemical zombies near the cities have been attacked.
"One side is controlled by the BOSSes, and the other side is the zombies. They can't be compared."
Zhao Shiyi smiled. "That's good news. We can reduce the undead army's numbers, but it's still a drop in the bucket. There are too many undead. Mr. Wolong, will there be any problems with the formations and traps in the strongholds? "
"We will."
He trusted Zhuge Kongming. Lanluo said, "I'll go check it out in case we miss the timing of the traps."
Two gray metal wings extended from her back. This fake ship girl had an extra pair of wings. Jian Zhi had become a machine girl. Seeing the propellers extending from the metal leg armor, Lin Xi thought of the Assault Armor that he had exchanged for Northern Qi Ji.
The Assault Armor could give people the ability to fly. It required magic and spiritual power to drive, but it wasn't easy to control. It couldn't compare to the Space Ring or the Green Lantern Ring.
Northern Qi Ji had the Yin Yang Jade but couldn't use it. The Green Lantern Ring was used by Lin Xi's Kuroko clone. Little Circle had the Ring of the World and could fly. Ally wasn't used to the Assault Armor. Su Hongying, Su Hongyu, and Dong Qing were even less interested in it.
Lin Xi turned around and saw Akashiro, a mercenary from Lanluo. She was a real ship girl. If she could use a ship armor, she could use a machine armor.
She needed to maintain balance and fight on the sea. Even though it was different from fighting in the air, it was at least easier. The Assault Armor couldn't be used. The girls didn't want it, and it couldn't be used by men. Wasn't it a waste?
Lin Xi wasn't trying to make a good impression on other mercenaries, nor was he trying to hook up with Lanluo's ship girl. With his identity, strength, and wealth, he didn't care about a mere Assault Armor. He might as well give it away to improve Akashiro's combat ability.
"For you."
"Uh."
Akashiro, who had black hair and a gentle temperament like a big sister, blinked. She didn't understand why he would give her something. She looked at the Assault Armor and hesitated for a few seconds. Then, Lin Xi introduced the functions of the armor through Ally's mental network.
"Thank you."
As a "ship girl" who fought on the sea, she was quite envious of the "machine girl" who could fly in the air.
The posthumans nearby were all deep in thought. Li Jianren mumbled to himself, "She gave a gift to make a good impression when her master is not here and hooked up with a mercenary … That's too shameless."
The army of the undead was about to arrive, and there was also the shadow cloud that shrouded the sky. Previously, Death Song used the "Heavenly Eye" to break the spells of Zhuge Liang and the other strategists. Even though Lin Xi arrived on the golden spaceship surrounded by five golden dragons and raised the morale a little, the atmosphere was once again depressing.
Lin Xi talked to the people around him. He learned about Jin City from Li Jianren and the situation of White Brow Daoist and Yan Chixia. He also chatted with Zhu Wanying. He was very interested in the three young masters of the capital. Unfortunately, when Zhu Wanying heard those three names, her mouth twitched and her face was full of black lines. It seemed that she wasn't even interested in talking about them.
"Hancock."
After greeting the empress, Lin Xi invited her, "The White Beard Pirates are currently stationed in the sea near Shen City. Papa White Beard, Mark the Phoenix, and Ace the Fire Fist are all there. By the way, there is also a girl, the Ice Witch Wydibe. If you have time, you can go and have a look."
Boa Hancock was from the world of One Piece. Although there was almost no intersection with White Beard and his crew in that world, they belonged to the same world after all.
Hearing these names, Hancock seemed to be a little nostalgic. She showed a proud smile to Lin Xi and said, "Okay, after this war is over, I will go to your city to have a look."
"This … Is he hooking up with my mercenaries?"
Zhu Wanying thought in her heart. There were too many beautiful women around Lin Xi. Not counting the posthumans, the nine-tailed demon fox, the legendary Kasumi, Mai Shiranui, Tifa, and other mercenaries, it couldn't be that all of them were exchanged, right? Could it be that this young man's hidden ability was to hook up with other people's treasured mercenaries?
At this time, a figure quickly flew back from the sky. Lancelot looked a little embarrassed. It seemed that he had fought with an enemy, but there were no visible injuries on his body. He shouted to the people on the wall, "The undead army has completely destroyed all the external strongholds, and the biochemical zombies have almost been eliminated."
"Really? It seems that the time has come. "
Zhao Shiyi turned his head and looked at Zhuge Liang. The previously injured military counselor had now recovered a little. He said to the eight rescued old men, "Although it is a little difficult, everyone should mobilize your strength again and cooperate with me to activate the trap array."
After using their martial soul once, even the strong generals had to rest after the battle, let alone the eight old men. However, as Zhuge Liang said, the situation forced them to do so.
Array!
Among the three countries that defeated the strong, the most common method was to attack with fire. In the Battle of Red Cliffs, a huge fire burned down 800,000 soldiers. Even if it was an exaggeration, fire undoubtedly had a restraining effect on the undead. Using fire to burn down hundreds of thousands of the undead should be possible, right?
Lin Xi already knew that Jinling was originally prepared to use the external strongholds as nails — to station an army that was sent to die, to exhaust the strength of the undead army. In the end, it was rejected by Zhuge Liang.
The current chief military counselor of Jinling, together with some military counselors who had changed their profession to array masters, spent a lot of effort and used a few days to transform each stronghold into a trap. When combined together, it became a huge raging fire array. Once it was activated, it would immediately fill the sky with flames!
Zhuge Liang and the eight old men worked together to use the military counselor's "Invisible Fire Array". The 24 strongholds, transformed into invisible fire traps, were activated one after another. Pillars of fire soared into the sky, piercing through the heavens and earth. It was impressively similar to the 28 constellations array in Shu Mountain City.
The top of the thick fire pillar connected the sky, and the bottom to the ground. The glaring red light almost illuminated half the sky. The heat of the raging fire could even be felt from the city walls. The spreading fire pillar and the spreading flames turned the land in the distance into a sea of fire.
Burning the camp!
