"Your Highness, do you want to take a look at that stone gate?" Xi Wanya asked.
"No, don't overthink it. It's not your fault." Ren Baqian shook his head. The stone gate was the one that Qi Ziting had passed through. No one knew where it led to. Whether it led to a corner of the earth, to the bottom of the ocean, or to the belly of a volcano.
Although Ren Baqian was very interested in the secret contained in that stone gate and Qi Ziting's safety was also very important, neither he nor the laboratory could spare any more energy at the moment.
Everyone was like a spring that had been wound. Their nerves were stretched taut as they walked forward step by step.
In particular, a lot of energy and manpower had been invested in the recent plan to use crystals on weapons.
Ren Baqian drew a line on the map and then a circle. "Get people to explore in this direction along the coastline. Our navy has built a forward base there."
The maps of this era weren't very detailed, especially when the area was completely covered in a fog that hadn't been opened yet.
"Our navy …" Xi Wanya chewed on this sentence. Dayao was mountainous and originally didn't have a navy.
However, the fact that Dayao's navy had already crossed the Chen Nation and reached the Sixty Thousand Mountains shocked him.
Taking the waterway was naturally much easier than traversing the rolling mountains.
Although it wasn't comparable to airplanes, it was still difficult for airplanes to transport large amounts of people and supplies.
"Understood." Xi Wanya nodded and prepared to go back to make arrangements.
"What do you think about transferring a military adviser to you?" Ren Baqian asked.
"I still don't think it's necessary," Xi Wanya said frankly.
"But your brain isn't working well!" Ren Baqian looked at him with a faint smile.
Xi Wanya was speechless.
Who am I? Where am I? What have I experienced?
"Don't underestimate him. He's very useful! You will know in the future! "Ren Baqian laughed.
Then, he ordered, "Get someone to deliver the things I brought to Lin Dong as soon as possible. Nothing must go wrong."
After Xi Wanya left, Ren Baqian looked at the map. The Earth Spirit Tribe was still 7,000 kilometers away from Qinggu's encampment. At their current speed of 60 kilometers a day, it would take another four months.
The aboriginals had already set up quite a number of traps along the way. Most of them were landmines, but there were also explosives that could collapse mountains and rivers. This was to create a large number of casualties and increase the burden on the aboriginals.
In addition, they had also killed and driven away a large number of wild beasts in the area, forcing them to spend more time looking for food.
As for the effects, they would only know when they came into contact with each other.
They had to win this war, but it was a pyrrhic victory.
This was the only way to give the Earth Spirit the illusion that they could win as long as they put in a bit more effort. Only then would there be no interference from external forces.
Judging from the speed at which the Earth Spirit had found them, they should be very far away. The report from Unsullied City proved that this was the case.
This also meant that the Earth Spirits could buy a lot of time by going back and forth.
At that time, His Majesty should be able to take that step.
At the very least, the Human Race would have a top-notch combat power to deal with the upcoming situation. Otherwise, they would all be finished in one strike.
…
A month later, an army made up of Earth Spirits and various Ferocious Beasts appeared in the mountains.
From time to time, the roars and scoldings of various beasts could be heard from the team.
There were flying mounts patrolling in the sky. Nothing within a 100-meter radius of the army could escape their eyes.
However, it was useless for Dayao.
All they had to do was watch the surveillance footage underground or in other hidden places and send it to the rear.
After the Earth Spirit's troops left, someone went to retrieve the micro-surveillance cameras at the rear.
They moved covertly and only retrieved the cameras two days after the Earth Spirit's troops left. They had been monitoring the Earth Spirit for two months without being discovered.
Those Earth Spirits were also vigilant. They felt as if they were being watched, but they couldn't figure out where this feeling came from. They didn't expect that the sparrows on the mountain peaks and the beetles in the crevices of the rocks were actually spies of the enemy.
"These fellows. Wherever they go, it's as if everything has been eaten. Nothing is left." In a cave that was completely sealed with only a hole for ventilation, two aboriginal men sat cross-legged. In front of them were images of the Earth Spirit's troops.
They had participated in retrieving the surveillance cameras and were a little angry after seeing the areas that the Earth Spirit's troops had passed.
The aboriginals lived and died in the mountains. The Sixty Thousand Mountains was their final resting place. Everyone loved this land from the bottom of their hearts.
"The more we wait, the angrier we feel. Their movements are all under our control now, and we don't know when they will strike."
"Don't worry, there will be a good show soon."
"What do you mean?"
"Didn't a group of people come here a few days ago? Other than killing or driving away the surrounding Ferocious Beasts, they also left behind a lot of good stuff. " The other man winked. This matter had been buried in his heart for some time, and he could finally talk about it now.
"What good stuff? Tell me. "
"How would I know? Those people won't talk about this … I just think that they are mysterious … "
Before he finished his sentence, a ball of fire suddenly lit up on the screen in front of them.
A hundred miles away, the army of the Earth Spirit Clan was advancing. Most of the Earth Spirits were very relaxed. After all, their opponents were just an exiled race, and they couldn't compare to them in terms of strength.
They were like fully armed soldiers with steel knives facing a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered. At least, that was what they thought.
However, there was a sudden clap of thunder.
Somewhere in the army, there was a sudden burst of fire. Steel balls shot out and formed a storm that immediately threw the surrounding Earth Spirits into a complete mess.
The weakest member of the Earth Spirit Clan's army was at the Kismet Heaven level, but they still couldn't react to such a sudden attack.
After the first explosion, a series of explosions occurred in the army.
Boom … Boom … Boom …
"There are enemies! Are the flying troops eating sh * t? "
All the Earth Spirits were vigilant of their surroundings and prepared to deal with the enemy's attack. However, to their surprise, no one appeared.
The flying troops in the sky searched the area within a radius of a few hundred meters, but they couldn't find any traces of enemies.
"What exactly is going on?"
"There are no enemies!"
"What happened just now?"
"All of them suddenly exploded underground. It looks like the humans were prepared for this."
"How many casualties are there?"
After a final count, there weren't many casualties. There were ten explosions in a row, but there were less than a hundred casualties, and most of them were injured.
The sudden attack and the fact that the enemy had yet to show up made all the Earth Spirits furious.
They were just waiting to find the humans and kill them.
However, before they could find the humans, the hundred-meter-tall cliff suddenly exploded when they passed by it the next day!
Large pieces of soil and gravel fell from the cliff along with the explosion.
The casualties this time were higher than before. There were more than two hundred casualties.
Just like before, they didn't see any enemies.
After two similar encounters, all of the Earth Spirits became more cautious.
However, the reality told them that it was useless. After only half a day, there was another explosion. They stepped on a mine again!
Since it wasn't
