Two hours later.
The people of the Celestial Master Battalion were all riding the best horses. At this time, they had already left Purple Lake City and entered the forest. The initial rush had finally slowed down a little. After all, horses would get tired, so everyone relaxed a little.
Everyone rode on their horses. Lu An and the battalion commander of the Celestial Master Battalion walked at the front. Yang Mu did not tell him about the Celestial Master Battalion, so he had to understand it himself.
"May I know the battalion commander's name?" Lu An asked the battalion commander as he rode.
"Ah, this subordinate's name is Nie Han." Commander Nie said with a smile.
Lu An nodded and said with a smile, "Commander Nie, you don't have to be so polite. I'm only the deputy battalion commander here. I don't know anything about war. I still need to listen to your commands."
Hearing Lu An's polite words, not only Nie Han, but the Celestial Masters behind him also heaved a sigh of relief. From the start of the journey until now, they had not said a word. They were afraid that Lu An would be displeased and punish them with military law. One had to know that even if they were Celestial Masters, they were still soldiers.
"Commander Nie, I don't know much about our Celestial Master Battalion and the specific situation at the front line. Can you explain it in detail?" Lu An asked with a smile.
"Of course!" Commander Nie immediately said, "Including you and me, our Celestial Master Battalion has a total of 89 people. Among them, there are 6 Level 4 Celestial Masters, 22 Level 3 Celestial Masters, and 60 Level 2 Celestial Masters … By the way, what is your strength, City Lord? "
"I'm at the beginning of Level 4." Lu An smiled and said, "In that case, there should be seven Level 4 Celestial Masters."
Level 4 Celestial Master?
Not only Nie Han, but all the Celestial Masters behind him were shocked when they heard this. How old does this Deputy City Lord look? He's actually a Level 4 Celestial Master? They, who were originally dissatisfied with this Deputy City Lord and Deputy Battalion Commander, immediately put away their thoughts. They looked at Lu An with respect in their eyes.
Strength was the most useful thing no matter where one went.
"I didn't expect City Lord to be a Level 4 Celestial Master. It's simply embarrassing!" Nie Han could not help but sigh.
"Commander Nie, you flatter me." Lu An smiled and said, "Also, don't call me City Lord. Just call me by my name. Lu An will do."
"How would I dare!" Nie Han hurriedly refused.
"It's fine. You are a senior. Calling me Lu An is already very good," Lu An said.
"This …" Nie Han saw that Lu An wasn't joking, so he said, "Then I'll call you Deputy Battalion Commander!"
Hearing Nie Han's words, Lu An knew that it would be difficult to force her to call him by his name, so he did not insist. "Okay, what's the situation at the frontline?"
"The front line!" When it came to business, Nie Han's face suddenly became serious. He said, "The front line is very long. It extends to the borders of three countries, namely Yuanbei, Shang Qi, and Donghua. Wars are breaking out all over the battlefront at any time. The people of the three countries are doing their best to defend, and with the help of other countries, they are able to hold on until now. "
"But I don't know how much longer we can hold on. After all, we are at a disadvantage. Even now, there is no hope for a counterattack."
"As for us, our number is Purple Lake City's 14th Heavenly Master Battalion. We are heading to the northeast border of Shang Qi. There is also a war there, but it is not the most intense part." Nie Han said seriously, "The Heavenly Masters there need to be sent to other battlefields, so there is always a shortage of Heavenly Masters. We are going to fill the gap."
Lu An nodded, but he frowned slightly. He did not have a good impression of Shang Qi. He still remembered that when the new King of Shang Qi ascended the throne, it caused a lot of unhappiness. Moreover, the current King, Qi You, was an unscrupulous person. He was somewhat unhappy that they were going to fight in Shang Qi.
However, even though he was unhappy, this was something for Purple Lake City. He would not be careless. Lu An turned to look at Nie Han and asked, "Do we need to report to Shang Qi's imperial capital, or do we need to go directly to the frontline?"
"Go directly to the frontline," Nie Han immediately said, "We can't even fight during wartime. How can we have time to report?"
"That's true." Lu An nodded and let out a sigh of relief. He said, "However, it will take a long time to reach the frontline from here. Even if we travel day and night, it will take at least one or two months. Will we be able to make it in time?"
"Haha, Deputy Battalion Commander, you're thinking too much. There are always ways to deal with war!" Nie Han laughed and said, "In order to allow us Heavenly Masters to reach the frontline as soon as possible, the Level Six Heavenly Masters of each country have set up many transportation arrays in various corners. Although the transportation arrays can only transport a few people at a time, fifteen minutes is more than enough for all of us. "
Nie Han raised his head and pointed to a mountain in the distance. He said, "As long as we cross this mountain range and reach Shang Qi's border, there will be a transportation array there. At that time, we will enter one by one and be directly transported to the mountain range near the frontline."
Lu An was suddenly enlightened. He had forgotten about the Teleportation Formation. However, the transportation array set up by a Level Six Heavenly Master was indeed limited in its ability. The person in the black fog had said that if it was set up by an expert, it could even transport tens of thousands of people at once.
The group didn't dismount from their horses. They hurried along and ate some dry rations for lunch. Finally, they reached the end of the mountain range in the evening. Sure enough, there was a public transportation array specially set up at Shang Qi's border. This transportation array could be activated by anyone. However, the location of this transportation array was also very confidential. Otherwise, it wouldn't be good if it was discovered by the enemy and directly attacked inside.
After Nie Han opened the transportation array, he immediately divided the group into batches and sent them in. Lu An and a few people were the first batch to enter the transportation array. After a short period of ten breaths, the mountain forest at Shang Qi's northeastern border lit up with a ray of light. A few people suddenly jumped out of the transportation array in mid-air!
Bang.
They all stood on the ground. A few Heavenly Masters, because it was their first time using the transportation array, were not used to it and almost fell to the ground. Lu An caught them one by one and stabilized them.
"Thank you, Deputy Battalion Commander …"
The surrounding people said one after another. Lu An nodded and raised his head to look at the transportation array in mid-air. Soon, the other Heavenly Masters came out one after another. In less than half an hour, the entire Heavenly Master Battalion had successfully passed through.
After the transportation array closed, Nie Han counted the number of people and said to everyone, "We will reach the camp after another sixty miles or so. Let's hurry along!"
"Yes!"
Whoosh —
Just as everyone responded, a ray of light suddenly lit up in the distance. Suddenly, everyone's heart trembled as they hurriedly looked into the distance.
Because the transportation array's location was at the top of the mountain, everyone could clearly see the light coming from the distance. To be able to see the light from sixty miles away, it was enough to show how big the light was!
"It's the direction of the camp!" Nie Han's heart trembled as he hurriedly shouted, "Something might have happened to the camp. Everyone listen to my orders and advance with the fastest speed!"
"Yes!!"
Immediately, everyone rushed towards the camp. Among them, seven Level Four Heavenly Masters took the lead and advanced at their fastest speed without waiting. As for the Level Two and Level Three Heavenly Masters, they maintained the same speed.
The seven Level Four Heavenly Masters maintained the same speed as they advanced towards the camp. What surprised the other Level Four Heavenly Masters was that although Lu An was only at the beginning of Level Four, his speed was no different from a Level Four Heavenly Master's. A Level Four Heavenly Master was already a very powerful existence on the battlefield. After all, Level Six Heavenly Masters would not enter the battlefield and the number of Level Five Heavenly Masters was much fewer than Level Four Heavenly Masters.
A distance of sixty miles was neither long nor far for a Level Four Heavenly Master. At full speed, the distance was rapidly shortened. At the camp sixty miles away, a battle was breaking out at this very moment.
Just a moment ago, a group of enemy Heavenly Masters launched a surprise attack at night. Moreover, the target of the surprise attack was the Heavenly Master Battalion. Originally, half of the Heavenly Masters here had already been transferred away. In addition to the surprise attack by the enemy Heavenly Masters, several people were seriously injured in an instant. Although the remaining people tried their best to resist, how could they compare to those who were already prepared?
Very quickly, the Heavenly Master Battalion was forced to retreat. The enemy Heavenly Masters rushed into the formation and started a massacre. Against these Heavenly Masters, the ordinary soldiers had no power to fight back. Any area of effect Heavenly Arts was enough to take their lives. Seeing that their numbers were rapidly decreasing, the remaining Heavenly Master Battalion gritted their teeth and resisted the enemy with all their might. Someone had already gone to report, and they only hoped that there would be reinforcements as soon as possible.
Before they could hold on.
"I can't hold on any longer!" An Earth Heavenly Master gritted his teeth and shouted. He had been releasing a defensive Heavenly Master to defend against the enemy, but under the enemy's crazy attacks, his Heavenly Origin Energy was being consumed at an extremely fast rate. Moreover, his body could not withstand such a large consumption.
"Hold on a little longer!" The Battalion Commander was anxious when he heard that. This camp could not be lost. He quickly looked at other places and found that the other Heavenly Masters were also in a very bad situation. Moreover, many of them had already died in battle!
"Damn it!" The Battalion Commander was anxious, but there was nothing he could do. He hoped that reinforcements would arrive immediately!
"Reinforcements are here!" Suddenly, someone shouted, causing the Battalion Commander's body to stiffen. He even thought that he was hallucinating, but he quickly looked back!
Following that, he saw several figures rushing over from afar. Their auras were like rainbows, like ferocious beasts that had been released from their cages!
