Shrek City, the current city lord's name is Shi Xing.
He stood at the highest point of South City Wall, silent, lonely and motionless.
He is a tall middle-aged man, who looks to be in his forties, with a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a calmness that has been battle-tested between his brows.
His skin was bronzed by the sun, and his hands were thick with protruding knuckles.
When the strong body stood there proudly, he even felt a bit majestic, as if he was not standing on the city wall, but the city wall grew out from under his feet.
He is forty-eight years old this year, which can be said to be in Spirit Master's prime.
When he was studying at the Shrek Academy, he once had a famous name -
Time Magician.
Not because he can do tricks, but because his Martial Soul is related to time.
In battle, he can always make the most accurate judgment at the most accurate time, playing with his opponents like a magician.
Later, after he was promoted to the title Douluo, the title was "time"--
Time Douluo, Shi Xing.
This title is connected with his name, and there is a strange rhythm when pronounced.
Five years ago, the previous city lord retired and returned to the inner courtyard of the Shrek Academy for retirement.
Shi Xing passed the unanimous vote on Sea God Pavilion Meeting and became Shrek City defense officer, responsible for the defense affairs of the entire city.
A city defense officer was actually titled Douluo. I am afraid that only Shrek City has such luxurious configuration.
For city defense officers in other cities, it would be a blessing to have a Soul Douluo in charge.
In Shrek City, the city defense officer with the title Douluo is only part of the configuration...
At this time, Shi Xing was standing at the top of the city, pressing his hands on the battlements, his fingers embedded in the stone cracks, and his knuckles turned white.
His face was ugly, and he was staring into the distance, to be precise, the south.
The Wu Yun that filled the sky was spreading from the south. At this time, the speed of Wu Yun's advance seemed to have slowed down a bit, but that slowness was gaining momentum.
And the pressure coming from the sky still makes people breathless.
It was like a big invisible hand pressing on my chest, making it difficult for my heart to beat.
On top of the city, Shrek City's city defense troops were busy.
Various defensive Soul Tools are being deployed intensively, with the muzzles facing south. Fixed Soul Guidance Cannonballs are being moved out of the warehouse box by box and stacked behind the fort.
Someone is responsible for transporting, someone is responsible for filling, someone is responsible for calibrating...
Shrek City Although there has been no war for many years, the city defense army is now in good order.
Although the pressure from the air made each of them look pale, they still did what they should do.
No one was making any noise, only the clang of metal, heavy footsteps, and heavy breathing.
Shrek City's army has a total of ten thousand people. Thirty percent of them are Spirit Master.
Most of these Spirit Master were disciples of the Shrek Academy in the outer courtyard. They failed to pass the examination in the inner courtyard, so they chose to join the city defense army for several years of training.
Shrek City's disciples from the outer academy are top geniuses in any academy outside, but here, they are just ordinary members of the city defense army.
It's not that they are not good enough, it's that Shrek Academy is too good.
However, Shrek City's city defense army is famous.
In history, they only participated in more than ten battles, but each time they created achievements that shocked the continent.
For example, when Sun Moon Continent and Douluo Continent first collided, Sun Moon Continent launched a holy war.
The Soul Tool technology of the Sun Moon Continent is far superior to that of the Douluo Continent. It once caused the countries originally belonging to the Douluo Continent to struggle to cope with it and retreated steadily.
Shrek Academy then sent a city defense force of 3,000 people, also known as Shrek Army, to the front line.
It was these three thousand people who, using the terrain, blocked the Sun Moon Empire army for fifteen days.
This gave the countries originally belonging to the Douluo Continent enough time to mobilize their troops.
Only then was the opportunity for the final counterattack to sound, and the holy war was finally won.
Since then, Shrek Army has become famous all over the mainland.
Being able to become a member of the Shrek City Defense Army will become a glorious resume that will last a lifetime.
Therefore, even if the students of the Shrek Outer Academy fail to pass the inner academy, they will definitely try their best to join Shrek City Defense Army and serve for more than three years.
This experience will become a mark of honor in their lives and will be of great benefit to their future development.
Shrek City is just a city after all, and it is not easy to raise an army of ten thousand people.
Fortunately, the 30% of Spirit Master are from the academy and do not enjoy any special treatment.
They only received a meager allowance from the city defense army, which was better than nothing.
But the remaining 7,000-strong ordinary army needs Shrek City to support it out of his own pocket.
These people come from all over the mainland, some are veterans, some are ordinary people without Martial Soul, and some are poor people who join the army to make a living.
They are different from Spirit Master. They are real professional soldiers who rely on military pay to support their families.
Shrek City raises them not for war, but so that the city's defense will not be left in a vacuum.
But who would have thought that after so many years of peace, there would really be a war.
On the top of the city, cannons were pointing into the distance, their black muzzles coldly staring at the Wu Yun that was still approaching in the south.
Various Fixed Soul Guidance Cannonball have been transported to the top of the city and are neatly stacked behind the fort, with the leads facing outward for easy access.
Three thousand Spirit Master had been assembled in less than a quarter of an hour, and they were all on top of the city and in their respective positions.
They were ready for battle at their positions, some were checking Soul Tool, and some were resting with their eyes closed.
No one spoke loudly, no one looked around, only the silence before the war!
The remaining 7,000 soldiers, more precisely auxiliary soldiers, prepared backup work for Spirit Master on a one-to-one basis.
A Spirit Master is equipped with an auxiliary soldier. The auxiliary soldier is responsible for carrying shells, cleaning the barrel, and delivering parts, so that Spirit Master can devote itself wholeheartedly to aiming and shooting.
Another four thousand soldiers were ready to provide support. They stood on the steps inside the city wall with swords and guns, ready to rush to the top of the city to fill the gap.
South City This side is the main defense area. There are much fewer manpower on the other three walls, but the number of Defensive Soul Tool is not large at all.
When necessary, as long as the Spirit Masters quickly move their positions, they can control the Soul Tools.
However, Shi Xing obviously does not need to worry about those three directions.
The enemies in those places, even if they exist, are scattered and stragglers, not enough to pose a threat.
On the Shrek Academy side, groups of students from the outer courtyard are rushing to the city walls in the other three directions as quickly as possible.
The youngest among them is only eleven or twelve years old, and the oldest is only sixteen or seventeen, with a childlike look on his face.
Although they are only in their teens, they have no problem controlling the ordinary Soul Tool after having undergone rigorous training.
After having the sealed Milk Bottle made by the Tang Sect, even ordinary people can control the low-level Soul Tool, let alone these Spirit Master who have at least two rings of cultivation.
Although they cannot actually go into battle to kill the enemy, they can do these things without any problem guarding the city walls, operating low-level Soul Cannon, passing information, and transporting supplies.
Shrek Academy's inner court disciples were naturally not idle either. One after another figures quickly came from the east of the city and headed towards South City Wall.
Their speed was much faster than the disciples in the outer courtyard. Their bodies flashed in the air and fell from the distant roof to the city wall. Before they could stand firm, they began to find their position.
Shi Xing pressed his hands on the battlements, looking far into the distance, with a hint of bitterness on his face.
Shrek City How many years has it been since we welcomed the coming of war?
He couldn't remember clearly. The only thing he could remember was that the two city defense officers before him did not face any war.
They worked peacefully until they retired, then returned to the inner courtyard to take care of themselves, entertain their grandchildren, and take care of themselves until their old age.
He's only been in office five years, but he seems to have hit the jackpot.
It's really a grand prize.
His eyes penetrated the layer of approaching Wu Yun, trying to see clearly what was behind it.
But he would rather not see it at the moment.
Behind that Wu Yun is Soul Beast. Tens of thousands of Soul Beast.
Not one or two, not a group of two, but an army of Soul Beast.
They surge in Wu Yun, shuttle through the clouds, and gather in the sky.
They rushed towards Shrek City in an organized, disciplined and premeditated manner.
Shi Xing took a deep breath, and with an extremely suppressed silence, turned around and looked at the taxi soldiers and Spirit Master who were busy on the city wall.
There was fear, nervousness, and confidence on their faces.
This confidence is because Shrek City's city defense army has never lost.
In thousands of years, I have never lost.
