The Journey of the Rainbow Dragon

The scar-faced veteran stared with bloodshot eyes, raised the standard weapon that was carefully wiped every day, and roared:

"The city hasn't been broken yet, why panic?"

He grabbed the green leaf badge on his chest and shouted in a hoarse voice:

"Want to enter the city? These beasts have to step on the corpses of me and my brothers to enter the city!"

After the words fell, the surrounding Blue Legion team immediately placed their left hands on the green leaf logo on their right chest and shouted the slogan of the Blue Legion in unison.

"war!"

"war!"

"war!"

Uniform and simple movements are the most inspiring tonic.

Suddenly, the people who were fleeing in panic began to slow down. The scar-faced veteran's eyes narrowed and he took the opportunity to shout quickly:

"I promise you that before the Blue Army is extinct, I will never let you suffer any harm!"

After saying that, he pointed his knife at the group of fleeing soldiers, his red eyes seemed to tear them apart, and several young ordinary soldiers suddenly wet their pants with fear.

"You, and you guys with weapons, can all run faster than women. Are you considered men?"

"I bother!"

"A bunch of birdless cowards!"

Before he finished speaking, an aura that was approaching a legend soared into the sky and erupted from the scar-faced veteran.

Maybe he was frightened by the blood remaining on his knife, or maybe he was shocked by the powerful power fluctuation.

Facing the almost substantial scarlet murderous intent, every human being who saw it was forced to calm down.

Suddenly everyone actually stopped escaping!

Seeing this, the scar-faced veteran made a vague expression, and the rest of the Blue Legion soldiers who followed immediately understood and took the opportunity to quickly take over all city defense positions and evacuation work.

In fact, during non-war periods, except for sending a small number of soldiers to guard the key entrances of the Ibi Forest, the Blue Legion is basically stationed at the rest of the time.

The city defense of the Green Forest City is garrisoned by the local city defense army. Compared with the Green Legion, the quality can be said to be worlds apart.

The reason why this strange situation occurs is nothing more than the stupid checks and balances left by the previous King.

Seeing that the situation had calmed down a bit, the scar-faced veteran coughed, quietly added a loudspeaker magic to himself, and continued to shout:

"I am the deputy commander of the Blue Legion, Xue Kai Karu. In the name of the Legion, I declare that from now on, the Green Forest City will implement a temporary wartime management treaty!"

"From this moment on, all city defense legions are temporarily under the management of the Blue Legion, and all important defensive positions inside and outside the city will be taken over by the Green Legion!"

"From now on, entering and leaving the city is prohibited, and the highest level of martial law is activated. Anyone who disobeys the order will be executed!"

"From this moment on, all commercial activities are prohibited, and all combat readiness resources will be forcibly confiscated into the combat readiness inventory. The Blue Legion will compensate everyone according to the market price afterwards."

"All non-professionals return home and take refuge. All professionals above Silver rank gather at the Mercenary Association. After the beast tide is over, all participants will receive an S-level mission completion evaluation, and triple mission rewards will be given! "

Wartime emergency orders were issued in an orderly manner, and the crowded crowd began to disperse under the evacuation of a large number of Green Legion soldiers.

"Uncle, no, the deputy commander is really awesome!"

Looking at the people around me who were evacuating in an orderly manner

Among the many soldiers of the Blue Legion, a young recruit's eyes shone brightly, and he looked at the back of the high platform with admiration.

The new recruit is named Blood Kai Stone.

Watching the crowd flow gradually returning to order, Karu nodded imperceptibly, and even the three ugly scars on his eyes trembled.

Then, he turned his head sharply and glared at the fleeing soldiers behind him:

"You, and all of you, you cowards who abandoned the city and fled, don't let any of you run away! Send them all to the front line. Anyone who disobeys the order will be executed!"

Soon, these gray-faced soldiers were escorted back to the city wall where they had abandoned their defense.

They knew very well that after offending Karu, the deputy commander who could be said to be more powerful than one person than ten thousand people, even if they could survive this terrifying beast wave, their future life would not be so easy.

"Deputy Legion Commander, the gates on all sides have been forcibly controlled, and the key positions of the city defense have been replaced by brothers."

Listening to the report of his soldiers, Karu nodded calmly, no longer acting like a reckless man.

He flicked the blade in his hand, shook off the blood stained on it, and put it back into its sheath.

Karu raised his head and looked into the distance. Everything he looked at was withered.

The city streets became chaotic.

People fled in all directions. Some residents who reacted quickly managed to escape the city before the military order was issued, but most residents were still intercepted in the city.

The ruins and broken buildings clearly reflected people's despair and fear, but he was unable to smooth away this fear and could only barely suppress it.

Looking at the chilling scene in front of him, he frowned and sighed:

"The chaos inside the city is easy to deal with, but the real problem is outside the city."

Outside the city at this moment

The attack of the monsters did not stop due to the destruction of the supply points and villages on the outskirts of the forest.

The onslaught is getting more intense!

Almost in the blink of an eye, this group of crazy beasts will cross the forest safety line that has not been breached for hundreds of years and head towards the farming area outside the green forest capital.

Suddenly the situation became increasingly tense.

temporary command center

This is the side closest to the Green Forest and the Ibi Forest. The bustling stalls and vendors in the past have long disappeared. Only rows of huge temporary buildings that have sprung up out of thin air and many old gates are left on the clean stone streets. City tools.

Outside the triangular-shaped room temporarily built using natural magic and impact-resistant materials, dozens of figures in full armor were gathered around nervously.

They are the warrior captains of various squads of the Blue Legion, and each of them manages a professional combat team of more than 30 people.

In addition to the troops responsible for investigation, these team leaders who never have the opportunity to get together on weekdays gathered together for the first time.

These team captains usually act independently and rarely have the opportunity to get together. However, thinking of what they may face next, many captains have lost interest in communicating with colleagues they have not seen for many days.

And above their heads, there hung an emerald green clock made entirely of natural magic.

What makes people feel weird is that the second hand, which should have been turning clockwise, is currently moving backwards.

12:52

12:51

12:50

All captains knew that this was the countdown to the first wave of beasts deduced by the deputy commander in charge of investigation based on frontline intelligence.

Tick ​​tock, tick tock.

As time passed by, the tense atmosphere outside the room became increasingly tense.

These normally prestigious warrior captains were like ants on a hot pot, pacing back and forth with frowns on their faces, and from time to time they would raise their heads and look at the command center.

Although they were extremely anxious, they still suppressed the anxiety in their hearts and waited silently for the people inside to make a decision.

Outside, the reconnaissance team continued to receive bad reports. The tide of monster attacks became more and more fierce, and the situation became extremely urgent.

In the room

In the smoke, three figures were looming.

"boom!"

Accompanied by the sound of a wine bottle breaking.

A bald man in heavy armor slammed the table, stood up, and angrily yelled at the woman opposite who was puffing smoke.

"Hasselblad, in such an emergency, couldn't you put out your damn cigarette?"

The speaker's name is Marquez Valdez. He is proficient in close combat and is one of the three deputy commanders of the Blue Legion. He is responsible for the logistics and chore management of the Legion.

The woman being called was currently wearing a tight leather jacket that was sticky and stained with opaque liquid, and her toned legs were resting casually on the table.

Her entire head was hidden in the gray-black headscarf and was blurred. Only three burning cigarettes in her blood-stained right hand continued to release a large amount of white smoke.

Hassel Mori, one of the three deputy captains of the Blue Legion, a speedster and intelligence master, is responsible for the Legion's reconnaissance and raiding teams.

The countdown clock outside the house is her masterpiece.

At this time, Hasselblad Molly was slumped on the chair regardless of her appearance, letting her body gradually become soft under the erosion of nicotine.

She took a long puff of cigarette, and then said lazily:

"Don't be angry, Marquis. Once you crawl out of the Earth Bear's mouth, I believe you will be calmer than me."

"Maybe this is the last time you smoke my cigarette."

Suddenly, Marquez's clenched fist froze, and what he originally wanted to say couldn't be said anyway.

The room fell into silence.

"Okay, don't make any noise."

Finally, the last figure sitting on the chair and staring at the map on the table spoke.

Gently stroking the three scars on his left eye, Xuekai Karu said calmly:

"This is the strategic deployment room, not your home."

"If you want to quarrel, I will pay for a room after this fight is over so that you can have enough quarrel."

"Now, cheer up! I need two strong men, not a drunkard and a smoker."

Marquez, who looked ugly, nodded and sat down, while Hasselblad threw away the remaining cigarette butt indifferently.

It’s hard to tell from their performances that they are a pair of childhood sweethearts who grew up together.

Facing the severe battle situation, although the faces of the three deputy army commanders did not show much reaction, the details revealed inadvertently by their bodies had already shown the uneasiness in their hearts.

"According to the intelligence, not all the beasts in the Ibi Forest this time are heading towards the Green Forest."

Karu took out the map and pointed at the torrent of beasts displayed in real time with red marks on the map:

"Each red dot above is a small beast tide with more than 1,000 animals, but the strange thing is that the general direction of movement of these beast tides is surprisingly consistent."

After a pause, Carew made a terrible guess:

"They seemed to have a unified direction, as if they were soldiers gathering somewhere under the command of a general."

The three people in the room were all silent. This news was far more shocking than ordinary people realized.

The originally mindless charging of the beasts is enough to frighten people, but if there is one more person who controls the overall situation.

Kalu looked at the two frowning people, nodded, and smoothly said the only good news among the many bad news:

"But because of this, we don't need to face the siege of the entire beast tide. Their target is not us."

He pointed to the three red dots in the west and said in a deep voice:

"The only ones we have to resist are these three waves of medium-sized beast tide tributaries that pass through the green forest."

"Compared to the main beast tide, the number of these three beast tide tributaries should be less than 1/20."

"Hasselblad."

After saying that, Karu turned to look at the woman next to him who was covered in mucus.

The latter seemed to be looking out the window in a daze.

In the sky, the setting sun is like blood.

However, in Hasselblad's eyes, the sky seemed to have turned into an inverted red sea, and the light penetrating the clouds turned into overflowing waves.

The afterglow of the setting sun fills the wrinkled clouds

"Hasselblad!"

Facing the intelligence leader who had just escaped from the bear's mouth, Kalu could only forcefully interrupt his distraction and said in a deep voice:

"You are the only one among us who has seen the beast tide head-on. Let you tell us about the structure of this beast tide, and we will analyze and deploy specific combat plans together."

Then, the room fell into silence.

"Pointless."

Hasselblad's mosquito-like sound is almost difficult to hear in the noisy environment outside.

"What did you say?"

"I said, it makes no sense!"

Facing Kalu's questioning, Hasselblad subconsciously straightened his body and his voice returned to normal.

But soon, she collapsed again.

Inside the tights that no one could see, wrapped in countless bandages, terrifying claw marks were constantly leaking scarlet liquid.

"What's the meaning?"

Carew stretched out his hand to hold down Marquez, who wanted to stand up and get angry, while continuing to ask calmly.

His expression remained calm, like a cold machine that would only act according to the rules and the optimal solution of things.

Pursing his lips and suppressing the urge to light another cigarette to relieve the pain, Hasselblad retracted his feet from the table, half-leaned on the edge of the table and said quietly:

"This time's tide of beasts is completely different from those trash fish in the past, both in terms of scale and variety."

"The specific number, the highest level, and the main types of monsters."

The meaning of Kalu's words is simple and shocking. He needs to formulate a special combat plan based on the enemy.

"The number? I didn't see clearly. The number of individuals exceeding the meter level is probably tens of millions. It is impossible to measure the number below the meter level. It's like all the monsters in the Ibi Forest are pouring out."

"As for the highest level, the Earth Bear that was close to the legendary level that I killed was just the leader of a small tributary of the beast tide. It is speculated that the leader of the beast tide has a plurality of high-level legends, or even"

Hasselblad couldn't help but tremble when he thought of that terrifying possibility.

She didn't say anything more, just changed her posture and leaned against the table, and then continued:

"There is no need to count the types of Warcraft, because all the 3,762 types of Warcraft that I know of have been mixed into the Beast Tide, and there are other Warcraft that I have never seen that are also in the Beast Tide."

"I guess those are the old guys who usually live inside the forest. Their strength is basically higher than that of the dead bear!"

Hasselblad started coughing before he finished speaking.

"Cough cough cough"

The woman's heartbreaking cough sounded like she was about to cough up her entire lungs.

"puff!"

Suddenly, a large mouthful of black and red blood spurted out from Hasselblad's mouth.

Dots of blood stains were sprinkled on the map on the table, complementing the densely packed moving red dots on it.

Carew remained motionless in his chair, while Marquez's face changed dramatically.

"Hasselblad!"

He stood up with a roar, rushed to Hasselblad's side regardless of his manners, and reached out to catch the body that was about to collapse from the chair.

The latter fell into a deep coma after coughing up the mouthful of blood.

"No!"

Marquis hurriedly tore open the healing scroll he carried with him, and dots of green light gradually enveloped the woman's body.

However, Marquis found in despair that the opponent's injury was so serious that even the sixth-ring healing magic could barely keep the injury from getting worse.

But the scroll that seals the sixth-level healing magic is already the highest-level healing magic he possesses!

"no, I can not"

"Wake up! You bastard, don't sleep!"

The panicked Marquis kept tearing open new healing scrolls, and while guiding the magic to apply to the unconscious Hasselblad, he turned back and roared at Kalu who was sitting on the chair:

"Karu, what are you still sitting there looking at! Go and call the best doctor in Green Forest!"

Everyone in the Green Forest City knows that the person with the strongest natural magic and healing magic in the entire city is the legion commander known as the Guardian of Blue - Elise.

In the past, it was Karu who was responsible for contacting the commander of the regiment who liked to go out and play all year round.

However, no matter how much Marquez cried, Carew still sat in the chair, unmoved.

In fact, he had already activated the communication magic agreed with Elise when the beast tide first broke out, but what he received was the result that no one responded. (In Ron's space, unable to connect)

Gradually, Marquez's angry voice faded.

The rants gradually turned into supplications.

He hugged his lover's body tightly and cried:

"Please, Karu, go find the leader. I can't feel her anymore."

[Magic communication connection failed]

[Magic communication connection failed]

[Magic communication connection failed]

Karu lowered his head, calmly put away the strategic map in front of him, and at the same time glanced at the countdown in the sky outside the window.

9:59

9:58

9:57

"Squeak!"

Suddenly, there was a sound of the chair rubbing against the ground.

This veteran who had climbed up from the bottom and had experienced many battles slowly stood up.

Then, he walked towards the door with a steady pace.

When passing Marquis, Carew suddenly spoke and said lightly:

"This is a war, Marquez."

"war."

"It will kill people." (End of chapter)
