The magic wolf sorcerer was a sorcerer of the magic wolf race among the space invading creatures. The magic wolf race was a bit like the werewolves in the legends on Earth. The genes of this race allowed them to exist in the form of humans during normal times. Only under certain circumstances would they transform into magic wolves.
Compared to invading creatures like magic rats and magic fire spiders, the magic wolf race was more terrifying. They were better at hiding and had greater destructive power.
In addition to the magic wolf sorcerer, there were also magic wolf warriors.
A large group of summoners rushed over. Several commanding officers of the 87th Legion had also arrived. The originally peaceful military camp had been broken.
Under the light of the flashlight, looking at the magic wolf sorcerer's body that had turned into pieces on the ground, everyone who had rushed over had a solemn expression and a chill in their hearts.
"… Previously, there were too many people fleeing to the Cloud Bay Mountain base. We couldn't verify everyone's identity. I didn't expect that there would be a member of the magic wolf race among those people!" Colonel Wang Cheng said with a face full of fear. "If this person hadn't been discovered tonight and continued to stay in the base, I don't know what he would have done …"
"There are many summoners in the base, so this person didn't dare to act rashly. He didn't dare to use spells easily. He only JS'd a woman. I didn't expect that he would still be discovered by Summer Priest!" A summoner also had a lingering fear. "The magic wolf sorcerer and the magic wolf warrior are invading creatures that specialize in hunting and assassinating human summoners. They are the great enemies of all summoners. If this guy hadn't been killed by Summer Priest, I don't know how many people would have suffered in the future …"
At this moment, Xue Sidao came out of the crowd with a lamp in his hand. He looked at the pieces of the body on the ground and then looked at Xia Pingan. He slightly sucked in a breath of cold air.
"How's the situation in the town?" Xia Pingan asked directly.
"Everything is normal in the town. No one escaped, and there are no abnormal fluctuations of divine power …" Xue Sidao replied. The mission that Xue Sidao had received previously was for him to monitor the situation in the town tonight. If there was a fight here, he would see if there were any abnormalities in the town. This was an arrangement that Xia Pingan had made to prevent the person who attacked from having hidden accomplices in the Cloud Bay Mountain base.
"It seems like there's only one Demon Wolf Magician who managed to sneak into the Yunwan Mountain base. He doesn't have any other accomplices, so there's no need to worry. Let's disperse and do what we're supposed to do. I'm afraid the townspeople will panic if we gather here in the middle of the night!" Xia Pingan said to everyone.
The Summoners who had gathered looked at each other before dispersing.
"Should we tell the citizens of Yun Wan Mountain base about this?" Wang Cheng exchanged glances with the officers around him and asked for Xia Pingan's opinion in an inquiring tone.
"Let's make an announcement and tell them the truth. Being secretive will only make people panic. Just say that we found and killed a Magic Wolf Mage tonight!"
"Won't this cause panic among the townspeople?"
"At times like this, hiding the truth will cause real panic!"
"Understood!"
The troops left after dealing with the scene.
Seeing that Xia Pingan was in danger tonight and that she wasn't by his side to protect him, Manzijin walked over with a guilty expression. "Sir, I …"
"It's fine. Tonight is a trap that I set up. If you guard my door, this Magic Wolf Mage might not dare to take the bait. I still have to send you away. Like this, it's best …" Xia Pingan said as he patted Manzijin's shoulder.
"I wonder how many people from this Magic Wolf Mage's family came from the space crack?" Li Yunzhou looked at Xia Pingan and the cursed tattoo of a wolf head on his arm with some concern.
"According to the historical data of the Committee of Order, every time the Magic Wolf Clan came to our world through the space crack, they would come in a family unit. A Magic Wolf Clan can have at least a dozen people or more. You have to be careful in the future. If you want to go somewhere in the future, it's best to bring a few more people with you. Don't try to show off by yourself!" Tu Polu said in a deep voice.
"Yeah, the Magic Wolf Clan is very vengeful. If you don't want to be killed by the Magic Wolf Clan for no reason in the future, you'd better improve your strength as soon as possible. Even the most common Magic Wolf Warrior has the battle strength of the First Yuan Realm and is extremely fierce. The Magic Wolf Mage you killed just now wasn't the strongest among them. The strongest Magic Wolf Mage will grow two more heads after appearing, and their fur will change color many times before finally turning into gold or white …" Fang Lingshan said.
"I know. More pressure is more motivation!" Xia Pingan smiled. "It's too late today. Let's go back and rest!"
"If you can't stay in the room in your courtyard, just move to our courtyard. Our courtyard is big and there are still a few empty rooms. Let's stay together and take care of each other!" Tu Polu said.
Xia Pingan thought about it and didn't refuse. He nodded and said, "Okay!"
The room he was staying in previously was almost destroyed after the fight with the Magic Wolf Mage. The room was in a mess, and some things were even poisoned. Xia Pingan couldn't be bothered to clean it up, so he just burned it all down and moved to another place.
Manzijin followed Xia Pingan and moved to the courtyard where Tu Polu and the others were staying.
Xia Pingan's room was right next to Tu Polu's. Xia Pingan's room was opposite Fang Lingshan's room. Manzijin directly moved to an empty room at the entrance of the courtyard.
After returning to the room, he closed the door and took out a sleeping bag from the Space Warehouse and threw it on the bed. Xia Pingan looked at the cursed mark of the wolf head on his right hand and then carefully checked his entire body. He didn't find any problems with his body, but the cursed mark of the wolf head looked a little strange. He didn't feel sleepy at all.
Xia Pingan simply took out the Realm Pearl that Wu Qi had given him and began to fuse with it.
After dripping a drop of blood on it, Xia Pingan's entire body was soon enveloped in a cocoon of light.
…
Xia Pingan opened his eyes and found himself sitting on a large ship. There were several large ships guarding the side.
The large ship sailed on the river, its flags fluttering in the wind. There were many people on the ship. From their attire, one could tell that the people on the ship were all high-ranking officials and dignitaries of the Wei Kingdom during the Warring States Period.
On both sides of the river, there were steep mountain ridges. Eagles were whistling and monkeys were crying. In the river, there were turbulent currents everywhere.
A group of people stood at the bow of the ship, pointing out the mountains and rivers.
Among the people standing at the bow of the ship, there was one person. He was short and stout, with a thick beard on his face. He was wearing the king's robes and looked very imposing.
"These mountains and rivers are extremely steep. They surpass a hundred cities. Our Wei Kingdom has such steep mountains and rivers to rely on. Who can fight their way in? The heavens have been kind to our Wei Kingdom. Hahaha …"
Xia Pingan looked at the man and knew that he was likely the Marquis of Wei. Judging from the man's imposing manner, he was indeed worthy of being a mighty ruler who had revitalized the Wei Kingdom.
Seeing Marquis Wei so happy, the ministers serving Marquis Wei all began to cater to him.
"Your Majesty is right. Our Wei Kingdom has such a natural moat, but with the benefits of the rivers and rivers, our Wei Kingdom will definitely dominate the world in the future!"
"This is a gift from the heavens to Your Majesty!"
"If Prime Minister Li was still around, he would be happy for Your Majesty when he saw Your Majesty's achievements today!"
Prime Minister Li was referring to Li Kuan. During Wei Wenhou's reign, Li Kuan had been the Wei Kingdom's prime minister and had presided over the Wei Kingdom's reform. Li Kuan was also a representative of the Legalists in the Wei Kingdom. Unfortunately, Li Kuan had passed away a year after Marquis Wei succeeded the throne. Losing the support of an elder in the imperial court had always been a regret in Marquis Wei's heart.
These officials naturally picked out the good things that the Marquis of Wei liked to hear.
"The reason why the Jin Kingdom was so strong back then was because of the dangers of the mountains and rivers!" One of the officials stroked his goatee and said to the Marquis of Wei, "Our Wei Kingdom now has the same conditions as the Jin Kingdom. If Your Majesty can further cultivate politics and work hard, Your Majesty will definitely be able to lead our Wei Kingdom to dominate the world and achieve great feats for generations to come!"
The Marquis of Wei laughed heartily. The latter words had struck a chord in his heart. "Hahaha, Prime Minister Wang is right …"
The Marquis of Wei swept his gaze around and realized that everyone on the ship was saying things that made him happy. Only Xia Pingan was standing silently at the side, looking at Wang Zhong and himself with a strange gaze. The Marquis of Wei couldn't help but think, "Prime Minister Wu, why aren't you saying anything? Could it be that you feel that what we said was wrong?"
Xia Pingan looked at Wang Zhong, his heart filled with surprise. He didn't think that the father of the future world-shaking Gui Guzi would look like this.
Wang Zhong was a sinister and despicable person, but this sinister and despicable person's son had the ability to shake the heavens and change the earth. He was the most amazing person of this era and had influenced countless people. According to the historical records, Wu Qi's words today would go down in history, but at the same time, he had also offended Wang Zhong, laying the groundwork for him to be plotted against and flee to the Wei Kingdom in the future.
In the imperial court, by the side of the king, sabers and swords could kill people without leaving a trace. One wrong word could lead to a life of exile, so one couldn't help but be cautious.
If Xia Pingan was really Wu Qi, he would probably agree with what the others said. There was no need to show off his eloquence. But right now, his goal was to fuse with the Realm Pearl, so he could only say whatever Wu Qi said.
Wu Qi's thinking was thousands of years ahead of this era, and even people thousands of years later might not be able to fully understand it. In the words of the future, Wu Qi was the first person in the world to propose that a country's most important defense line was the country's values and thinking, and not its defense fortifications and mountain passes.
If a country's values and thinking collapsed and became chaotic, then no matter how many armies a country had, no matter how many strategic passes it occupied, it would still collapse and become chaotic.
As expected of the military god of this era!
Xia Pingan sighed and said directly, "Your Majesty's words just now are very dangerous for the Wei Kingdom. All the ministers are agreeing with your Majesty, and I'm afraid that if we aren't careful, the Wei Kingdom's foundation will be ruined!"
Marquis Weiwu's expression turned cold, and the other ministers also shut their mouths and looked at Xia Pingan.
Wang Zhong's expression was even more stiff.
"Why do you say that, Minister Wu?" Marquis Weiwu hurriedly asked.
"The danger that a country relies on is not in the rivers, passes, or cities, but in virtue!"
