Shen Lang had been immersed in the Enlightenment of the Advanced Dragon for countless years. In reality, less than a month had passed!
Even so, the countdown in Mojing was about to end.
Movies often showed last-minute rescues, but this kind of thing usually did not happen.
After Shen Lang left, the Jiang Li Empire's Super Sky Fortress continued to bombard Mojing.
It did not stop every day.
Every once in a while, the sky above Mojing would show scenes of the end of the world.
However, the people in Mojing were much stronger than expected. After the initial panic, they quickly calmed down and did what they were supposed to do. They just moved all activities from outdoors to indoors, as if nothing had changed.
Princess Shen Mi brought thousands of people to manufacture sunglasses on a large scale. She had already mass-produced many of them and equipped them to the patrolling troops.
The countdown continued.
Three hundred hours.
Two hundred hours.
One hundred hours.
Three hours. One hour!
There was only one hour left. There were only 59 minutes left.
Shen Lang still had not returned.
It was exactly nine o 'clock in the morning.
Everything in Mojing was still the same as before. The children went to school, the warriors trained, the troops patrolled, the ministers attended court meetings, and most people were still engaged in production.
Of course, agriculture was completely abandoned. Even the strongest crops could not withstand the light from the explosion of Regret of the Dragon. Even with a layer of energy shield, these ancient crops and ancient crops all died.
In Da Qian Palace, the court meeting continued.
They were discussing a very important topic. They were discussing whether they should send messengers to the Fire God Church's secret territory.
After Shen Lang left, the person with the highest authority in the Mojing's energy control center became Princess Ning Han.
Of course, her authority was very, very low. She only had the authority to detect and receive information. She could not even use the most ordinary weapons.
About ten days ago, Princess Ning Han received a message. It was from the Fire God Church.
The content of the message was to ask any forces loyal to His Majesty Shen Lang, such as the Great Desert or the Lost Empire, to send a signal to the Fire God Church's secret base.
Of course, Princess Ning Han did not have the authority to send a message.
The signal to the Fire God Church's secret base had been sent hundreds of times, and they were all repeated.
Presumably, no one in this world would respond, so in the end, they even sent out a coordinate, inviting any organization that was loyal to Shen Lang to send an emissary over. They would send people to receive them and discuss extremely important matters.
The coordinates were 19,000 miles west of the Ten Thousand Mile Wasteland.
The courtiers debated endlessly. They didn't know if they should send a messenger or if this was just a plot of the Jiang Li Empire. After all, the mirror had been taken away by the Fire God Religion, but it had miraculously appeared in the vast desert.
However, the final result of the Mojing Imperial Court's discussion was to send envoys there, and they had sent three batches of envoys.
The first wave had already set off nine days ago.
This sounded very absurd. Mo Jing was about to be finished, but they still wanted to send messengers to contact the Fire God Cult?
Wasn't this equivalent to sending envoys to participate in foreign affairs activities when the Manchurian Qing Dynasty was about to perish?
However, what Mo Jing insisted on the most was this sense of ceremony, the sense of an empire's ceremony.
Even if this empire was about to perish, it had to be formal until the very last moment, and not scattered like a plate of loose sand.
The mirror was still a perfect substitute for Shen Lang, doing everything he was supposed to do, maintaining the hearts and morale of the entire Mo Capital.
"Clang, clang, clang, clang …"
The bell rang a total of nine times.
Deputy Premier Zhu Jung picked up the pocket watch and glanced at it. The other important officials also picked up the pocket watch and glanced at it.
There was still an hour until the countdown. There was still an hour until Mo Jing's energy shield was destroyed.
"It's about time. Let's call it a day!" Zuo Ci said, "Everyone, go and make your preparations. We have to prepare for the best, and we have to prepare for the worst! "
Then, all the civil and military officials in the Mojing court bowed and retreated in an orderly manner.
These officials quietly returned home, took off their official robes, and silently put on their ancient armors. They took out all kinds of weapons.
Their wives, sons, and daughters also put on all kinds of armors and picked up all kinds of weapons.
Not just the officials, all the troops and warriors in the entire Mojing checked each other's armors and weapons, then lined up neatly and left the barracks.
Everyone, even those who knew a little martial arts, and even those who knew how to operate any kind of weapon, were all armed.
In the past month, all the doors and windows in Mo Jing were tightly shut.
A few minutes after the bell rang, all the doors opened, and people walked out one after another.
Regardless of whether they were warriors, officials, scholars, or craftsmen, they were all fully armed and gathered on the streets.
Everyone was a soldier.
In the end, a total of 200,000 people gathered.
Even though the mirror was a substitute, he still wore golden armor and rode on a flying beast.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh …"
Tens of thousands of flying beasts rose into the air, and tens of thousands of Sky-sea Pavilion Special Forces lined up in the air.
"Let's go!"
"Let's go!"
"Protect Mo Jing, protect the Da Qian Empire!"
With the command, the 200,000 people neatly and majestically headed towards the north of Mo Jing.
Because countless troops of the Jiang Li Empire would be coming down from the north!
All the adults in Mo Jing had to participate in the defense battle.
The best preparation was for Shen Lang to return and save Mo Jing.
But they had to be prepared for the worst, which was if His Majesty Shen Lang could not return in time. But these hundreds of thousands of people must not tarnish the image of the Da Qian Empire. The empire's sense of ceremony must be maintained until the end.
… …
At the same time!
To the north of Mo Jing, dozens of Jiang Li Empire's Super Sky Fortresses were heading south! They were getting closer and closer to Mo Jing.
The entire sky seemed to have been poked into a huge hole. More and more Jiang Li Empire's Super Sky Fortresses appeared, and more and more troops appeared in the sky, covering the sky.
Three hundred miles away from Mo Jing.
Two hundred miles.
One hundred miles.
Thirty miles.
Of course, this was only the geographical distance. Mo Jing was still under the protection of the energy shield, so it was still hidden and undiscovered.
But once the countdown ended, the energy shield would be completely destroyed, and the entire Mo Jing would be exposed to the Jiang Li Empire's troops.
"Troops, land!"
Following the command of the Jiang Li Empire's troops, countless Super Sky Fortresses landed slowly and opened their doors.
Innumerable ancient puppet warriors walked out of the cavern.
These were ancient humans who had turned into fossils. They did not escape the Great Destruction of the Ancient Era, even when they turned into fossils.
But after Jiang Li returned, he used his high-level energy to revive them. But they still had no souls. Even their bodies had changed, and they were all made of energy.
How many of these Ancient Puppet Warriors were there? An astronomical number!
There were hundreds of thousands of them in the Ancient Square Relic, and this was only one of them that had been discovered.
At that time, after the upheaval in the North Pole, countless cracks appeared on the ground, and countless ancient human fossils emerged from the ground.
That scene was like countless ghosts returning to the human world from hell. The darkness was like a tide, forming an ocean.
There were countless places like the Ancient Square Relic underground in the Eastern world.
Therefore, only Jiang Li knew how many Ancient Puppet Warriors there were.
But at least for now, there were 300,000 of them attacking Mo Jing.
Three thousand Homo Evolutis and three hundred thousand Ancient Puppet Warriors walked out of the giant sky fortress.
They were lined up neatly on the vast desert, stretching for dozens of miles without end.
They waited quietly. As long as the energy shield of Mojing was broken, they could easily charge in and completely destroy the last surviving place of the human kingdom and completely occupy it.
Of course, there was no need to go through so much trouble. They could just use a wave of Regret of the Dragon to cleanse the land.
"Boom boom boom boom boom …" Another wave of Regret of the Dragon shot out and hit the energy shield of Mo Jing, causing an earth-shattering explosion.
The flashing light was many times brighter than the sun.
Within Mo Jing, 200,000 people closed their eyes and continued to march forward in an orderly fashion.
After dozens of minutes, they arrived at the northern edge of Mo Jing.
"Formation!"
"Formation!"
The 200,000 people lined up in a formation. Then, they waited quietly for the countdown to end.
10 minutes, 5 minutes, 3 minutes!
10 seconds, 5 seconds, 3 seconds, 2 seconds, 1 second!
The countdown ended! Shen Lang still hadn't returned.
As expected, the entire Mo Jing's energy control center used up its last bit of energy.
The huge energy shield disappeared instantly. All the defense systems in Mo Jing failed.
All the space concealment systems failed!
The ninth city-state of the Ancient Empire, Mo Jing of the Da Qian Empire, was instantly exposed to Jiang Li's army.
Both sides were slightly shocked. Because of the energy shield and space concealment, they couldn't see it at all.
They didn't expect the two armies to be so close to each other, less than 10 miles away.
But at this moment!
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh …" Dozens of Super Sky Fortresses shot out the last batch of Regret of the Dragon.
They were very close now, less than 100 miles away. For the Jiang Li Empire's Regret of the Dragon, it didn't even need 10 seconds.
These Hell Crystal Dragons were like a meteor shower, flying to the sky above Mo Jing in an instant.
This time, there was no energy shield to block them. Once they exploded, the entire Mo Jing would be destroyed.
However, when they were a thousand meters away from Mo Jing. These Regret of the Dragon froze in the air, then turned around and flew back into the Jiang Li Empire's Sky Fortresses.
Was … was this a miracle performed by Shen Lang?
No, it wasn't! This was because the Jiang Li Empire had decided not to use the Regret of the Dragon to destroy Mo Jing.
Then, the commander of the Jiang Li Empire's army walked down and lifted his mask, revealing his face. It was a very pure member of the Jiang Clan's royal family.
"I am Jiang Xian, a duke of the empire! The third son of the last king of the ancient Jiang Clan, but I have chosen to serve His Majesty, Jiang Xie. "
The last king of the ancient Jiang Clan? He was the man who knelt in the Ancient Temple of King Kong Peak. Shen Lang had gotten the Ancient King's Ring from him.
If Shen Lang was here, he would realize that the Jiang Xian in front of him did indeed look somewhat similar to the last king.
"Who is Zuo Ci?" The commander of the Jiang Li Empire's army, Jiang Xian, asked.
Zuo Ci stepped out and said, "I am!"
Jiang Xian said, "His Majesty has decreed that although your plan didn't succeed, you still fulfilled your obligation. You agreed to become the empire's impersonator to infiltrate Mo Jing and carried out the plan to destroy Mo Jing. Therefore, His Majesty will fulfill his promise to you. There will be a name list of 1,000 people on the spaceship. This means that 1,000 people from Sky-sea Pavilion will survive. Now, you can choose from 1,000 people. The rest will be executed. "
This was the reason why the Jiang Li Empire had stopped using the Regret of the Dragon at the last moment.
Jiang Li had promised Zuo Ci, so he had fulfilled his promise even though Zuo Ci's plan had failed.
When he said that, everyone looked at Zuo Ci in disbelief. What? The Grand Chancellor was an impersonator from the Jiang Li Empire? He had betrayed the Da Qian Empire?
How could this be? This must be a conspiracy and a rumor by the enemy.
Zuo Ci said loudly, "The Great Emperor of Darkness Jiang has given us a name list of 1,000 survivors. If any of you want to live, you can walk to the enemy's formation. "
Hundreds of thousands of Mojing people looked at Zuo Ci as soon as he said that.
Zuo Ci took off the mask on his face and revealed his horrifying face. It was completely disfigured and only two holes were left to hide his eyes. The rest of his facial features were gone.
"If I don't explain myself now, I will be a sinner." Zuo Ci said, "But I won't give you a name list either. If any of you want to live and surrender to the Jiang Li Empire, go now."
Hundreds of thousands of people looked extremely sad and furious, but no one moved.
Zuo Ci said, "Also, I want to tell everyone something. The Emperor Shen Lang in your eyes is not the real Emperor Shen Lang, but his famous substitute, the mirror!"
Once he said this, the hundreds of thousands of people in Mo Jing were shocked.
The hundreds of thousands of ancient puppet warriors on the Jiang Li Empire's side did not react at all. As for the 3,000 ancient new humans, they looked at Zuo Ci mockingly as if they were watching a farce.
After hearing Zuo Ci's words, the flying beast mirror slowly took off the crown and said to the hundreds of thousands of people in Mo Jing, "That's right, I'm the substitute mirror, I'm not the real Emperor Shen Lang."
As soon as he said this, the hundreds of thousands of people were even more shocked. The boundless anger felt like it was going to explode.
The feeling of suffering and endless humiliation surged in their hearts.
Was … was this the Da Qian Empire that they were loyal to? Was this the Emperor Shen Lang that they were loyal to?
Not only was Sir Zuo Ci lying to them, but even Emperor Shen Lang was lying to them? What was the point of their loyalty then? Wasn't it too shameful?
The morale of the hundreds of thousands of people in Mo Jing almost collapsed.
Pavilion Master Zuo Ci continued, "Then where exactly did His Majesty Shen Lang go? I don't know, he left a month ago. Did he run away? No … no! "
Pavilion Master Zuo Ci raised his voice and said hoarsely, "Mo Jing is on the countdown to destruction, so Emperor Shen Lang went to find a way to save it. He definitely didn't escape, he definitely wouldn't abandon Mo Jing, he wouldn't abandon the hundreds of thousands of people. "
"Then can Emperor Shen Lang create a miracle, can he turn the situation around again, save Mo Jing, save all of you?"
"I don't know, I really don't know!"
"But … I just want to know, is your loyalty to the Da Qian Empire real or fake? Is your loyalty to yourself real or fake? "
"Could it be that all of you have chosen to serve His Majesty Shen Lang merely because he can protect all of you? Are you only loyal to him because he can create miracles? "
"If one day, Emperor Shen Lang can't create miracles, will you not be loyal to him?"
"All of us need to think carefully. What exactly are we loyal to? What is it? "
"Is it Emperor Shen Lang? No … no, it's our own belief! "
"Everyone knows what the Jiang Li Empire is like now, I've announced it countless times, it's like a dark hell. Countless humans are treated like pigs and dogs, like slaves. The Great Emperor Jiang Li is devouring the energy of this planet, he wants to sacrifice everyone, the hundreds of millions of humans he reared are just a source of energy for him in the future. "
"Why are we gathered in Mo Jing, why are we gathered under the flag of Emperor Shen Lang? It's because we have the same dream, that is to defeat the Jiang Li Empire, save countless humans, let them live with dignity, even if it's only for a few years, even if it's only for a few days, instead of being enslaved like pigs and dogs. "
"Emperor Shen Lang is doing his best, he's using all his strength, all his will, to rush back before the countdown ends, he's dying to save Mo Jing. But … if he can't create this miracle, are you not loyal to him because you want to betray him? If that's the case, your loyalty is too cheap. "
"I only have one question. Is His Majesty Shen Lang's determination and will to save you guys real or fake?"
"Are you still independent souls, do you not know how to fight if you leave His Majesty, can you not fight? Think about it, what are you fighting for? Are you fighting for your own beliefs, or are you fighting for Emperor Shen Lang alone? Is this Da Qian Empire the empire of His Majesty alone? "
After Zuo Ci shouted these words, the hundreds of thousands of people in Mo Jing calmed down, their originally angry and panicked faces became solemn once again.
Zuo Ci continued in his hoarse voice, "Of course, I'm not hiding my opinion. In terms of saving the world, I still have faith in Jiang Li, because he has no weaknesses, he's cold and heartless, he can sacrifice millions, even hundreds of millions of lives without blinking an eye. Emperor Shen Lang can't do that, he can't even bear to hurt tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of lives, he's done countless foolish and naive things. "
"So now, I still don't think that Emperor Shen Lang can defeat Jiang Li. In order to save Sky-sea Pavilion, in order to save the people closest to me, I sold my soul, I became Jiang Li's impersonator. "
"Those who stand behind me, whether you are from Sky-sea Pavilion or not, you can all put down your weapons, surrender, and stand on Jiang Li's side, because he promised me that 1,000 people will survive. I won't call names, I won't draw up a list, you can choose. Those who want to live, run over. "
"I have to tell you, if Emperor Shen Lang doesn't create a miracle, it's impossible for us to win with just 200,000 people. Jiang Li's army has 300,000 people, but every one of them is an ancient puppet warrior, and there are also 3,000 ancient new humans, they're far more powerful than you can imagine, even someone as powerful as Marshal Zhu Hongxue can't defeat an ordinary ancient new human, because they have the Hell Crystal, the most advanced energy body. "
"So, if no miracle happens, the 200,000 people in Mo Jing will be annihilated within a minute. Therefore, if you want to live, take the initiative to run over and join Jiang Li's army. Although the Great Dark Lord is cold and heartless, he still keeps his word. He said that he will let 1,000 people live, so he will definitely let all of you live. Don't feel any moral or psychological pressure. In order to survive, anything you do is pardonable. "
Zuo Ci looked at the hundreds of thousands of people in Mo Jing.
Still, no one stepped out, and no one wanted to surrender to Jiang Li's army.
"Of course, I, Zuo Ci, will fight to the end, even if I have to die instantly, I will fight for the Da Qian Empire. Is there no one who wants to surrender? Is there no one who wants to live? "
The hundreds of thousands of people in Mo Jing still didn't move.
Zuo Ci said, "Then I will start the countdown, once the countdown ends, if anyone wants to surrender and run to Jiang Li's army, it will be too late, you will be seen as a traitor."
"Ten, nine, lean towards the 200,000 people in Mo Jing.
It will only take a few seconds.
In a matter of seconds, he would be able to annihilate this group of human ants in the Mo Capital.
Then, he can go back and continue the great work of Emperor Jiang Li.
The hundreds of thousands of people in Mo Jing will be wiped out in an instant.
However …
The destructive attack of the Jiang Li's army, the sky full of energy radiance, the countless energy cannons that looked like a web of hell.
They disappeared without a trace in an instant.
They didn't die, they just disappeared.
The Nightmare Stone Bomb, the miniature Dragon's Regret, the Dark Energy Cannons, the Hell Crystal Cannons, and all the other attacks were destroyed in an instant.
Then, a figure slowly descended from the sky!
This person, of course, was Shen Lang!
The Da Qian Empire's Emperor Shen Lang, Shen Lang who had completed the Advanced Dragon Enlightenment.
The moment the Substitute Mirror saw Shen Lang, he immediately put on a mask and hid himself in the crowd.
This was because the moment Shen Lang appeared, he had to disappear from everyone's sight.
After Shen Lang landed, he slowly walked towards the Jiang Li's army alone.
One person walked towards the 300,000 strong army.
"Attack, attack!"
Following Jiang Xian's order, countless weapons of the Jiang Li's army, including the Hell Crystal Dragon's Regret, were fired towards Shen Lang alone.
The sky was filled with a meteor shower, like a rainstorm.
However, just as they flew into the sky, they turned into ashes again.
Then, in a flash!
Shen Lang appeared in front of the 300,000 troops of the Jiang Li's army, in front of Jiang Xian.
"You are the commander in chief of this army of three hundred thousand? You look very familiar," Shen Lang said with a smile.
"I am the Duke of the Jiang Li's Empire, Jiang Xian."
Shen Lang nodded and said, "I know, I know."
Then, he looked at the 300,000 puppet warriors.
This group of people had already turned into fossils, but in the end, they were resurrected once again like walking corpses.
Shen Lang looked at Jiang Xian and said, "His Majesty Jiang Li is very powerful and has control over half the world. But … this is my home ground. This place is too far away from the north pole. The hell needles haven't even pierced into the ground yet, and the hell crystals haven't spread yet. And yet, you're already here with 300,000 soldiers to destroy my Qian Empire? Are you looking down on me? Do you think I don't exist? "
Shen Lang's hand gently patted Jiang Xian's face.
"Since you are here, don't leave. Stay here forever!" Shen Lang smiled. Then, his eyes emitted a strange and powerful light.
God's Gaze.
Not only was he staring, but he was also controlling Mo Jing's huge totem to stare at him.
The eyes of the totem with a human face and snake body shot out extremely bright rays of light.
Wherever Shen Lang's gaze landed.
The 300,000 Ancient Puppet Warriors of the Jiang Li Empire turned into fossils once again.
3,000 ancient new humans also turned into fossils!
Then, Shen Lang clapped his hands softly.
The fossils of the three hundred thousand ancient puppet warriors turned into ashes in an instant.
The army of the Jiang Li Empire's southern expedition to Mo Jing was completely annihilated.
