Reporter Xiao Na screamed as she continuously fired her new energy-converting weapon at the monsters outside the array barrier. Visible green blood splattered everywhere, accompanied by bits of flesh and severed limbs. She was extremely excited.
"The city lord's new energy conversion weapons are simply amazing!"
Meanwhile, the others who obtained the new energy conversion weapon were bloodthirsty and excited, with a strong desire to break out of the barrier and engage in a fierce battle.
Xiao Tian crossed his arms over his chest, his eyes narrowed with a smile as he stared at the outside world.
With the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan in his left eye and the Enhanced Byakugan in his right eye, the dense fog over a great distance was completely unobstructed in his eyes, and the full appearance of all the monsters was presented in his mind.
Monsters are numerous and endless. In the far distance, there is a spatial rift emanating mysterious runes, from which the monsters and mist emerge.
Xiao Tian calculated the distance, which was about 50,000 kilometers. Although he was confident that he could reach it, it would be useless for him to close the spatial rift by himself alone.
After all, the entire planet is currently shrouded in the fog of war, with at least hundreds of spatial rifts.
The people in Luo Cheng still need to train. Within the scope of the Primordial Hongmeng Plan on Blue Star, this fog of war is not the most bizarre and terrifying aspect.
"What's truly terrifying is the human heart," Xiao Tian murmured.
Time flew by, and eighteen hours had passed.
Outside Luo Cheng, the city was littered with the corpses of monsters; the number killed was countless, yet the monsters' offensive showed no signs of abating.
The Evolver wielding the new energy conversion weapons were exhausted and took turns resting, while those with ranged attack Evolver were also completely worn out, far less relaxed than the Evolver who had wielded the new weapons.
Five minutes later, the eerie mist slowly dissipated, and as the monsters were swept away and fell, the world outside the city cleared up, and not a single monster remained standing.
Even more bizarrely!
"Where are the monsters' corpses?"
The Evolver and the city guards looked terrified and were filled with horror.
"What exactly is going on?"
They knew all too well that many monsters had been killed outside the city. Not to mention that the pile of corpses would be taller than the Tongtian City, the pile would be at least ten meters high, not to mention the many giant corpses that had been killed.
Life is but a dream!
Reporter Xiao Na put down the new energy conversion weapon, her face full of astonishment as she described the situation outside the city to the camera, her beautiful eyes wide with disbelief.
As the camera panned out of the city, viewers on Luo Cheng' official TV channel were all shocked.
There's nothing outside the city! It's like there was never a battle!
"Impossible! The energy within me is still in Weaken state. The battle is real! It's definitely not a dream!" The Evolver beside me screamed in disbelief.
Snap!
"Ah! Damn it! Sun Tang, why did you hit me!"
"This old lady wants to determine whether I'm dreaming or not!"
Having been fatally shot without being noticed, the chicken's buddy's eyes were wide open, bloodshot and contorted in agony, his face contorted in extreme pain. He believed this must be revenge.
At this time Yue Wan from the official station approached Xiao Tian to inquire about the strange situation outside the city and to ask for Xiao Tian opinion.
"This is not a dream. The corpses of the monsters we attacked are still there, but they are not visible due to the different spatial dimensions."
"Different spatial dimensions?" Yue Wan was surprised and immediately called Xiao Na to ask her to come over.
"Boss, I'm here!"
Yue Wan continued to question Xiao Tian about spatial dimensions.
Xiao Tian glanced at the camera and smiled, saying, "Regarding the situation outside the city, I personally believe that the appearance of this fog has broken the spatial dimension, constructing a bridge for our space to contact it. When the fog dissipates and the bridge breaks, the difference in spatial dimensions will naturally prevent us from seeing those corpses again. Of course, this is just my speculation. Perhaps if another strange fog attacks, we will be able to see those corpses again."
"I must say that the City Lord's theory makes a lot of sense. Right now, there shouldn't be any casualties in our Luo Cheng. After all, with the barrier in place, the monsters can't break in. Here, we must thank the City Lord, the City Lord's Mansion, and everyone who helped build the barrier. They have built an indestructible wall behind us and protected us! Let us thank them again!" Reporter Xiao Na said excitedly to the live broadcast camera, her face flushed.
The people of Luo Cheng were all excited as they watched televisions, mobile phones, tablets, and other electronic devices, with the live stream chat flooding the official channel's chat room with comments.
Xiao Tian stared at the camera, his expression suddenly turning serious. He said, "This is all thanks to the people of Luo Cheng! The entire city will remain on high alert. I have a feeling this strange fog won't end so easily! Even more difficult challenges await us! Opportunity and danger go hand in hand! Many people have gained valuable experience in this battle! Keep it up, everyone!"
"Go for it! Lord City Lord! You're forever a god!" Xiao Na screamed, her youthful energy and vitality shining through.
Yue Wan looked at Xiao Tian, the city lord of Luo Cheng. Beneath his youthful appearance lay incredible energy. This young man had given countless people in Luo Cheng confidence, and his advanced sense of crisis and ideas provided Luo Cheng with powerful protection.
After the battle ended and the losses were tallied, Xiao Tian had just descended the Tongtian City when he received a wireless telegram message from outside the distant city wall.
Location: Phoenix City! Dragon City!
Previously, a bizarre fog battle was encountered in Luo Cheng, and other cities in the Country H region are also experiencing it!
Local network equipment in other cities crashed, and only wireless equipment at some base stations was able to maintain information transmission.
In the city lord's mansion, in the city lord's office, a group of important officials stared solemnly at the black-and-white images transmitted on the computer and the decrypted information of the telegraph machine's wireless password.
"The situation is indeed terrible; we in Luo Cheng are truly fortunate."
"Two ancient cities were destroyed just like that, a thousand years of history gone."
" Dragon City, Phoenix City, and City in the Clouds all suffered heavy losses, but Dragon City, as the capital, is in the best condition."
"Lord, should we report the situation in Luo Cheng?" The wireless telegraph operator frowned. He felt that people in other cities wouldn't believe the report of no casualties in Luo Cheng, and might even become withdrawn and discouraged. In fact, countless people might rush to Luo Cheng, which would make the situation in Luo Cheng very chaotic.
Xiao Tian Xiao and said, "Send a message saying that the barrier around Luo Cheng collapsed, resulting in tens of thousands of casualties. Fortunately, it pulled through, and the city walls are currently being repaired."
The other elders and key figures remained silent, each lost in their own thoughts.
An elder spoke up, "City Lord, Phoenix City, Dragon City, and City in the Clouds have all sent out distress calls. Should we intervene?"
"Why don't you go? I'll pay you ten years' salary, and if you die, your family's compensation will increase twentyfold." Xiao Tian Xiao.
The elder's lips twitched, and he immediately said, "City Lord, our Luo Cheng also needs to be reorganized. This fog is strange; these monsters might return any day now. For now, let's rest and wait."
Xiao Tian Xiao and said to the wireless telegraph operator, "Send this to Dragon City; I'll head there. Also, notify the Overlord, and preferably contact Phoenix City and City in the Clouds, so that those still alive can relocate and change their positions."
"Clear."
Deputy City Long Zaitian frowned and said, "City Lord, you must be careful on your trip to Dragon City. Furthermore, in the coming days, I fear that news of our Luo Cheng will continue to spread, and then the population problem in Luo Cheng will..."
"You, Deputy City Lord, are in charge of handling the population issue. City order is crucial. If any troublemakers come to cause chaos, in this harsh and cruel environment, we cannot be merciful, no matter how useful they may be," Xiao Deva Path.
The Long Zaitian nodded.
"Since you're going to Dragon City, would you like me to go with you?" Chu Feng asked from behind as they left the city lord's mansion.
"No need, Fengzi. You just help out by looking around the city, and while you're at it, make yourself stronger as quickly as possible."
Chu Feng chuckled and said in a low voice, "Next time the fog comes, I'll handle the spatial rifts near Luo Cheng."
"Very well." Xiao Tian Xiao. This guy truly lived up to his Primordial Hongmeng. His eyesight was incredibly sharp. Even with such dense fog at the time, he was able to perceive the situation far away with such incredible, almost supernatural, insight.
" Brother Tian, be careful on your trip to Dragon City!" Zhou Quan didn't have much to say, so he took out a large Da Bai rabbit candy from his pocket and tossed it to Xiao Tian.
"Hehehe, I'm leaving."
At the city gate, a group of guards and the city's commander looked terrified.
"Lord of the city, are you really going to leave the city?"
Xiao Tian nodded and smiled, "Right now the monster tide is receding, and everyone is in trouble. The situation is not good. I have to go to Dragon City. If the monsters come again during this time, Luo Cheng has a formation in place, so you can continue to defend as usual. There shouldn't be too much trouble. Remember not to lose your composure. Behind you are many people you are protecting."
Upon hearing this, the guards all raised their arms and saluted Xiao Tian.
"Respectfully seeing off the City Lord! Please be sure to return safely!"
The city gates swung open, and Xiao Tian vanished like a streak of light.
Xiao Tian did not head directly towards Dragon City, but instead went to the Blood Wolf Clan's territory first.
When you get close to the area, you can feel the cruelty and sorrow of this land.
The Blood Wolf Clan suffered heavy losses and was nearly wiped out during the attack by monsters in the eerie mist.
Now, only one Blood Wolf King remains! It is the one that was enlightened by Xiao Tian back then.
Its eyes held sorrow and Indomitable as it let tears fall, gazing at the corpses of its tribesmen around it.
"Since we're still alive, we must live on. In this dog-eat-dog world, only by becoming strong ourselves can we truly be strong."
The Blood Wolf King stood up, turned to look at Xiao Tian who had appeared, and let out a mournful howl, as if blaming Xiao Tian for not coming to its rescue.
Xiao Tian walked up to the Blood Wolf King, stroked its soft fur with his large hand, and said in a cold tone, "You are their king. Even if they don't die here, they might die somewhere else in the future. They don't have your kind of powerful talent. It's survival of the fittest."
The Blood Wolf King let out a mournful howl, staring longingly at Xiao Tian.
"Although your injuries were severe in this battle, you still managed to pull through." Xiao Tian's palm emitted a soft light as he used the simplest Healing Technique to heal the Blood Wolf King with high-quality energy free of charge.
Soon, the Blood Wolf King's terrifying internal and external injuries were almost completely healed.
"I need to go somewhere. Let's go, speed north."
As Xiao Tian onto the Blood Wolf King's back, the Blood Wolf King couldn't help but roar to the sky, adjust its emotions, stir up a whirlwind, and rush northward like a streak of blood-red light.
Dragon City.
The outer city area was a scene of utter devastation, with ruins everywhere and many uncollected corpses trapped among the rubble or lying on the roads outside.
A light drizzle blanketed the area, as if even the heavens themselves were grieving and sorrowful.
In the inner city area, the city walls are dilapidated, with huge holes on the north and south sides, and even traces of trampling in some places.
The Imperial City, the Qianqing Palace.
The Overlord, the head of a major family in Dragon City, a leading figure in all walks of life, and the deputy palace master of the Three Great Sage Lands, looked solemn.
"Report!"
The Overlord looked at the newcomer and said authoritatively, "Speak."
"Reporting to the Overlord, a call from Luo Cheng Luo Cheng reports that they suffered over ten thousand casualties. The barrier is shattered, the city walls are in ruins, and repairs are still underway. They have survived the Nightmare Disaster."
"The loss is only tens of thousands?" Everyone at the conference table was astonished.
"Is Luo Cheng's formation that powerful? How could it withstand it?" someone exclaimed in disbelief.
"Is there some kind of exaggeration here?"
"Reporting to the Overlord! There's another encrypted call. The Lord of Luo Cheng is heading towards Dragon City and requests that the Overlord contact Phoenix City and City in the Clouds to propose a relocation and shift of positions."
The Overlord's brow relaxed. Xiao Tian was coming to Dragon City, which showed that he was very confident in Luo Cheng's defensive capabilities.
" My Overlord, I think there's something wrong. Since Xiao Tian was so willing to come to Dragon City, and called to say that the barrier was broken and still under repair, shouldn't it be under repair? I'm afraid there's something fishy about the data showing losses of tens of thousands." The deputy palace master of the Jade Void Palace said calmly.
"We cannot ascertain the strength of the barrier in Luo Cheng, but it is likely much better than in Dragon City."
"I suspect there's something wrong with Xiao Tian!" Tuoba Wei, the leader of the herbal medicine business, frowned.
The Overlord and the others couldn't help but glance over.
" Tuoba Wei, what does that mean?"
Tuoba Wei sneered, "Gentlemen, it seems Xiao Tian had foreseen this, and he built a barrier for Luo Cheng. Those of us who have experienced the fog of war know very well how terrifying the firepower of those monsters is! Do you all really believe that the barrier can withstand the endless firepower of those monsters?"
The Overlord smiled faintly, "Speculation is acceptable, but there must be evidence, Tuoba Wei."
"I personally suggest that we privately form an investigation team to investigate the situation in Luo Cheng," Tuoba Wei proposed.
"I agree." A powerful figure who had relied on antiques in his early years and now secured his position in Dragon City with his treasured artifacts spoke up.
I second that!
In an instant, eight people agreed, and most of the people agreed. The Overlord hesitated for a moment.
"Very well, let's form an investigation team to investigate Luo Cheng."
The deputy palace master of the Biyou Palace smiled.
