Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 1117: Chapter 545: Reinforcements (Part 2)

“The stitching method also needs attention; even if the Illusion Change understands the truth, without corresponding stitching techniques, it will be exposed.”

“We must establish a strict screening network and set up targeted hunting groups. The danger of Illusion Change is very high!”

As they discussed this, everyone continued to approach the shelter.

Their primary goal remains to quickly reunite with more compatriots and provide adequate support.

Every Spiritual Ability User who followed Li Ye into the Disaster Fog carried a large amount of Imitative Heavenly Soldier.

This is aid from the Giant City Circle of Border City, supporting Ba Shu Mountain City, with the Lava Mine City operating at full capacity.

In a short time, nearly a hundred thousand Imitative Heavenly Soldiers were provided to Li Ye!

This consumed a massive amount of resource reserves.

Although the cost of each Heavenly Soldier is not high, even though all are ‘waste’ of Magic Potion and Spiritual Ability Equipment,

such a quantity of materials is incredibly large.

At the same time, it provides humanity with desperately needed spiritual energy combat power!

In the Disaster Fog, most humans don’t have combat strength. Although most young adults can be armed to shoot at the enemy, it’s still not enough against various Horror Demons.

Now, as long as a single supporter arrives at a shelter, they can deliver hundreds of Imitative Heavenly Soldiers. This can alleviate most of the plight and pressure.

What’s more, before entering the Disaster Fog, the Giant City official also sent Li Ye’s Heavenly Soldier Furnace over.

As long as humans can maintain the frontline within the Disaster Fog,

the combat power on humanity’s side will grow more and more substantial as they fight!

This is crucial!

Before that, humans need to integrate their combat power and occupy ‘points’ to support other spaces.

However, as the team advanced quickly, Li Ye and his group discovered a small shelter that had been breached.

Inside was already a scene of bloodshed. As Li Ye and others approached, some Horror Demons were still wandering.

In response to them, naturally, was human anger.

Long Lie led people into the ruins, slaughtering all the Horror Demons here.

And as the team continued forward, they encountered more and more Horror Demons. Inevitably, their speed decreased.

The Horror Demons here seemed to be attempting to attack the shelter but had not yet succeeded.

Therefore, Imitative Heavenly Soldiers were unleashed, attacking the Horror Demons gathered outside the large shelter, greatly easing the shelter’s pressure.

And from the Void Realm came the information that inside the large shelter, nearly a hundred thousand civilians had been taken in, with over three thousand armed soldiers, and five Sixth-Sense Spiritual Ability Users, along with over thirty Strong People of the Fifth Sense.

This makes the shelter quite secure.

But the dense population also makes it greatly burdened.

The shelter originally planned to accommodate fifty thousand people was forced to take in twice the number when the calamity struck. The logistical pressure seems overwhelming.

As Li Ye and his group approached the shelter and coordinated with the large shelter,

they discovered that the large shelter dispatched some combat power to break through the external Horror Demons’ blockade.

Li Ye and others were shocked and then released more Imitative Heavenly Soldiers to support the compatriots of the large shelter.

Among them, a leading Human Pride, upon seeing Li Ye,

clearly froze.

“Damn! Alive!”

He seemed surprised to see a living Human Champion here.

Not the residual sound avatar that pressures all in the Inheritance Land, but the actual Ninth Generation Champion!

In the Inheritance Land, Human Prides privately criticized the two champions for being utterly unfair, curses abounded.

But now, seeing the real champion, the unease and fear in their hearts diminished greatly.

Immediately, that strong person repressed his excitement and pointed in a certain direction, shouting: “Champion! Leave this to us; you hurry to aid! It’s the Disaster Relief Department under siege! The situation is dire! Go quickly!”

Li Ye and others’ faces changed drastically.

The Disaster Relief Department is naturally concentrated with combat power, like Li Ye’s Border City East City Branch, which is tasked during wartime to accommodate hundreds of thousands of residents. This is also why the branch has extensive underground space.

Moreover, the branch is extremely dangerous; in order to guard Taboo Items, it must maintain substantial combat power.

Now, under the influence of the Abyss Dark Side, the combat power inside the branch might be lacking; if the branch is breached and a large number of Taboo Items are released uncontrollably, the situation within the Disaster Fog will be even more troublesome.

Priority must be given to supporting the branch!

“I’ll stay with the others, you take the elite and go!” Long Lie shouted: “The Black Prison must not be lost!”

“Okay!”

Li Ye hesitated not, the spatial wave in his hand shimmered, and a scarlet rein appeared.

In the next instant, the formidable form of Mad Dragon emerged in mid-air, intimidating the group of demons with Overlord’s pressure.

The violent Flame Thunder flickered, illuminating this dark night.

Little Mad King, Cheese, and several elite strong ones all leapt onto the Mad Dragon’s back simultaneously.

Li Ye fiercely pulled up the reins, simultaneously activating Face, Wolf Vanquisher of Juxu·Huo Qubing! Shadow Army, Swift as the Wind!

The Mad Dragon carried everyone, charging towards the distant battlefield like a meteor!

…

Meanwhile, the Ba Shu Mountain City West City Branch, located within a mountain fortress.

Originally, it had a very dense fire network and was permanently stationed by several captains and an Overlord Level strong person.

But as the Dark Side unfolded, more than half of the combat power disappeared, significantly damaging the combat effectiveness.

After the Disaster Fog initiated, many human strong ones rushed to aid, barely maintaining the order here and suppressing the Taboo Items underground in the Black Prison.

But at some point, a large number of Horror Demons seemed to receive some kind of summoning, halting their mutual slaughter.

And at the same time, launched a terrifying assault on the branch. They came too quickly, with highly powerful Horror Demon units.

Almost instantly, it entered intense slaughter.

The ground defense line was breached, ground troops lost contact entirely, and the mountain was being breached.

When one Hunting Insect tore open the fortress’s defense, the dreadful massacre began.

The civilians within the branch sent out one last rescue request to various shelters and drew their large-caliber weapons from their waists, engaging in combat with the Hunting Insects.

Even as civilians, they had undergone strict military training, or even were retired Spiritual Ability Users.

They were also the final barrier protecting the civilians!

The civilians of the Processing Department had all been to the battlefield!

The blades of Hunting Insects sliced through one human body after another, charging towards the interior human civilians.

But as figures dashed forward one after another, countless guns roared. Chain-Saw Sword, Military Shovel, Bayonet, wildly chopping at them.

One Hunting Insect’s charging speed slowed, as they were toppled by the crowd. They were bitten, stabbed.

A Hunting Insect climbed up from the multitude of corpses, its eyes had been dug out, sharp blade arms broken, it let out an angry shriek, attempting to lift the butcher’s knife again.

Yet hands from the corpse heap held it, then more arms reached out, dragging it back into the pile. This time, it did not rise again…no one rose again.

Sacrifice and courage blocked the Hunting Insects’ assault but could not halt the increasingly gathering Horror Demons.

A large number of Horror Demons stormed through the gaps, madly attacking humanity’s last line of defense.

Human warriors relied on the branch fortification, leaving behind human and Horror Demons’ corpses alike, fighting to the death.

The Blood and Flesh Demon Sword harvested life after life, merciless knights trod over human skeletons, the savage insect swarm devoured battlefield flesh, green-skinned humanoid monsters screamed bizarrely…

The Black Prison’s door was stained with countless blood and bone, humanity’s strong ones despaired and screamed.

And within the Black Prison, the elderly man with severed arms glanced at his compatriots, panting as he raised his City Lord’s Saber.

“Perhaps…there is no aid, folks. Each shelter is under great pressure. Maybe we won’t make it in time.”

Behind him, civilians raised their weapons too, human soldiers readied to release Taboo Items.

Even in death, they would follow the City Lord, take a bite out of the enemy!

However, at that very moment when the Black Prison door was shattered, the outside slaughter suddenly paused.

Through the crack in the door, the old man clearly saw all the Horror Demons turning to gaze behind them.

Immediately, they seemed provoked, emitting furious howls!

And answering them was the champion’s roar!

“Kill!”
