"No! Something's not right! "
Wu Ming appeared in the void, the clouds above his head filling the air. The shadow of the main divine palace appeared behind him, and the light of transcendence swept across. Many wraiths, monsters, and even the weaker Abominations were destroyed by the white light.
With the protection of many supreme beings, a large number of Abominations fell under the golden city formed by the divine throne of the Dragon King.
Even though there were heavy casualties, the gods still firmly held this line of defense, which was equivalent to hammering a nail in the inner world, waiting for the continuous expansion in the future.
But Wu Ming did not feel the slightest joy. On the contrary, he felt a little cold.
"The Void Mask can't be so weak!"
Today, even though the Void Mask was also very fierce, Wu Ming had a feeling that the other party was still holding back.
"But this is impossible! The first victory means that the offensive and defensive situation will be reversed. Next, the gods will definitely press forward step by step. This is an overt plot, and there is no way to break it!
"Unless …"
A kind of light suddenly appeared in Wu Ming's heart, and his eyes flashed a trace of deep thought …
…
Several years passed quickly.
Ever since the gods counterattacked the inner world and successfully planted a nail, the fusion of the two worlds was in a strange state of stagnation.
And the catastrophe of the main world also began to weaken.
In contrast, more and more elites poured into the inner world. Under the leadership of the gods, they worked hard to purify this source of evil.
Ying Yue was dressed in a military uniform, with a long sword hanging from her waist. She looked very valiant and formidable.
"This is the inner world?"
She raised her head and looked at the clear sky, as well as the many stars that emitted a soft light, and walked out of the teleportation hall without hesitation.
"Very good. Are you the newcomers of the empire this time?"
At the door, an officer stood under the flag. It seemed that he had been waiting for a while.
"Great Chang Empire, Lieutenant of the Hussars, Ying Yue, reporting for duty!"
Ying Yue took a deep breath and said loudly.
"Very good!"
"The inner world is a huge battlefield. Within New Moon City, everything is governed by the military. All of you are people with military positions and merits, so you should be clear about the rules. I won't say much … Now, follow me!"
Ever since the Inner World's counterattack began, the gods had been expanding outward with Dragon King City as the core. At this time, they had already built thirty-six outer cities as outposts and defense lines. Each city was guarded by a large number of gods to deal with possible sneak attacks from Abominations.
As for these mortal elites, they were used to exhaust the fiends and vengeful spirits.
Even though the key to the outcome of the battle was still in the hands of the higher-ups, the victory or defeat of these lowly ants could still become a chip that would decide the final balance. Naturally, the gods would not overlook this.
New Moon City was a city that was mainly defended by the human race.
"Sir, when are we going to fight?"
Ying Yue caressed the long sword in her hand, the cold killing intent caused the officer to be a little absent-minded.
"Now that we're here, why should we be afraid of not having a chance?"
He said, at a loss whether to laugh or cry, "There are no commoners in any of the cities. This is the battlefield between us and the inner world. As long as we kill more fiends and vengeful spirits, the outside world will be less affected by the inner world."
"I understand …"
Ying Yue slowly exhaled as she looked at the clear sky.
Legend had it that in the past, the sky of the inner world was constantly filled with a blood-red color. However, the gods later purified the god corpses in the sky, causing a portion of the stars to begin transforming.
"There's no moon … too much Yin …"
Ying Yue sighed silently.
The battle in the inner world was extremely tragic. Even her faith, the Moon Lord, had perished in the frenzied counterattack of the Abominations.
Furthermore, her clansmen in the outside world had suffered heavy casualties from the attacks of the fiends and vengeful spirits.
Due to the new and old grudges, Ying Yue did not hesitate to sign up to join the Great Chang Empire's expeditionary army. She wanted to come to the inner world to avenge her family and faith.
"Speaking of which … we are all very lucky. The supreme god that guards this place is the one from the Seer continent! Legend has it that … even the leader of the Abominations can't do a thing to him. Therefore, he usually suffers the least harassment from the Abominations! "
The commanding officer spoke incessantly. Following that, a shrill alarm sounded above the entire city.
"This is …"
All the recruits immediately gripped their weapons nervously. However, the commanding officer shook his head nonchalantly. "There's no need to be too nervous. It's just monsters attacking the city. They come a few times a day. As long as the other party doesn't have any Abominations, our true gods will not be mobilized …"
"With the true gods and Abominations not taking action, this is our stage!"
"Stage!?"
Ying Yue looked up and immediately saw a flock of white bone birds. They were a black mass that had suffered heavy casualties from the cannons and crossbow bolts on the city walls. However, there were a few that managed to slip through the net of firepower and even the city's protective array formation and enter the city.
"Damn it, it's the Spirit Devouring Bird!"
The commanding officer cursed. "It's a demon that's best at breaking through array formations and barriers! If you encounter it in the wild, you must be careful. Although it's courting death in the city, it's still very annoying! "
As he cursed, he took out a black longbow from his ring, nocked an arrow, and suddenly released it.
Swoosh!
The arrow flashed, and a few Spirit Devouring Birds in the air exploded into pieces.
"Storage ring, magic longbow?"
Ying Yue and the other newbies were stunned. They didn't expect that a random person would be equipped with such precious items and have such terrifying strength.
"There's no need to be envious!"
The officer laughed heartily. "In the inner world, as long as one dares to kill the monsters, the reward is very high. Basically, those who survive can save up a set of magic tools for themselves … Or they can exchange it for titles, land, pearls and jades that are commonly used in the Empire … In fact, many adventurers come to try their luck for this, although most of them fail …"
"By the way, this city is defended by the east and west, so don't be surprised to see western wizards and knights!"
As the commanding officer spoke, he suddenly tilted his head and looked in the direction of a section of the city wall. His face was full of seriousness. "Something's wrong!"
Rumble!
In the next moment, a violent tremor came from that direction, as if even the entire city was shaking.
"Demonic Power Beast! I didn't expect such a big guy to appear among the demons attacking the city this time! "
That kind of Demonic Power Beast was a terrifying war beast. Although the highest was only at level 5, its skin was rough and its flesh was thick. Its vitality was extremely tenacious, and its strength was astonishing. It was a sharp weapon for sieging cities and pulling out walls.
Among the demons, it was also a very rare type. Because it wasn't at level 6, unless it directly attacked the core of the city, the guarding Gods would rarely make a move.
"There's trouble over there, let's go and support immediately!"
The commanding officer tightened his grip on the longbow in his hand and gave the order.
"Yes!"
Ying Yue pulled out her longsword, a trace of bloodthirsty excitement on her face.
She wasn't a Moon God Priest who relied on divine techniques to make a living. Her swordsmanship and martial arts were all top-notch. Even though some of her magical abilities had regressed because of the fall of the Moon God, she still retained 70% to 80% of her strength. She was a top-notch expert no matter where she was.
After jumping over the city wall, Ying Yue took a deep breath.
Demons!
A black mass of demons that stretched as far as the eye could see!
At the forefront of these demons was a huge hairy elephant the size of a small mountain. Its four pairs of huge teeth were like siege awls. It charged forward again, causing the ground to tremble. Soon after, it fiercely smashed into the city wall.
Bang!
The ground shook again. Even though they were prepared, the Western Knights and Wizards guarding the city were in chaos. Many unlucky ones were directly shaken off and became food for the demons.
"Ha! Blue Sky Nine Heavens! "
At this moment, accompanied by a loud roar, Ying Yue's commanding officer suddenly attacked.
He drew his bow, and the dark green arrow suddenly exploded in the air, splitting into nine, dragging a long trail of flames behind it. Their bodies expanded in the air, and as if they had their own intelligence, they searched for the weakest point of the Demonic Power Beast's defense and directly drilled into it.
"Roar roar roar!"
Large balls of green flames directly exploded on the Demonic Power Beast's body, causing it to cry out in pain. Huge wounds appeared on its body, and its shocking self-recovery ability was completely useless against it.
Although it was heavily injured, the Demonic Power Beast exploded with ferocity, and fiercely smashed into the city wall again.
Bang!
Amidst the flying dust, the city wall that was originally protected by many talismans and arrays finally could no longer withstand such destruction, and a small part of it collapsed with a loud bang.
A few Wizards could not stand steadily, and were directly thrown into the air. Even if they immediately used their spells, they could not escape the pursuit of the demons below.
"Hmm?"
From the corner of Ying Yue's eyes, she saw that not far away from her, a Western Wizard was unlucky enough to be affected. Even though he climbed back up the city wall with the help of his spells, there was already a mantis-like monster behind him, and it raised its hand as a knife.
"Go!"
She lightly shouted, and the long sword in her hand turned into a stream of light. The Hundred Steps Flying Sword instantly sank into the mantis-like monster's head.
"Uh … Thank you!"
The Wizard was stunned for a moment, and then he came over to thank her, speaking in a strange Eastern language.
"You're welcome. Have you learned the Dachang language?"
Ying Yue looked at the Wizard's young and inexperienced face, and asked with slight surprise.
After all, it was very rare for a Wizard to learn a language under the premise of the Language Proficiency spell.
"In New Moon City, I have made many Eastern friends, and using spells is too troublesome … Thank you again for saving me. My name is Bruce, and I come from the Seer Kingdom!"
The young Wizard introduced himself.
"The Seer Kingdom? The Overgod who stands guard over this place is your guardian deity! "
Ying Yue sighed.
"That is our former king, the Undying, the Blue Giant Dragon, the Conqueror King William!"
Bruce replied somewhat proudly, and pointed at the pillar of light in the middle of the city, and said, "He is always protecting his people!"
Rumble!
At this moment, a completely crazy Abomination rushed over, causing the guards on top of the city wall to cry out in alarm.
In an instant, a figure appeared in the pillar of light in the middle of the city, and a huge palm directly slammed down, pressing the Abomination to death, causing a burst of cheers and worship.
Ying Yue looked at this familiar figure, but fell into a complete daze.
