Chapter 314: Horned Ghost Wolf

"He is a beast, really a beast." The old patriarch looked at the Class A death squad in the mountains and forests and couldn't help cursing.

"This is a tough battle." Liu Weizi couldn't help but frowned.

"It's okay. There are plenty of traps. The defensive perimeter of several miles is enough to deal with these crustacean monsters, causing heavy casualties." Shang Liangshan said coldly.

"That's right." Liu Weizi nodded and changed the subject, "Liangshan, have you sensed the leader of this ghost beast?"

"We have sensed it, and it is hiding in the army of ghost beasts. It has a team of elite ghost wolf beasts guarding it. Even though it is a ghost wolf beast, it still retains the wolf's suspicious nature. It will not dare to take action unless it is absolutely necessary."

"That's good too. It will encourage you, Liangshan, to kill it and lure out the eighth-level ghost beast behind it." The old patriarch mentioned intentionally.

"Don't worry, old patriarch, I won't take the initiative." Shang Liangshan was indeed not planning to take the initiative to attack. The reason was very simple. He vaguely realized that the ghost calamity was not the end, but the starting point.

Bitter battles and major wars will be the norm in the future, so it is better to let the military and civilians grow and cope with normalized high-intensity battles.

"Let's go back. The army of ghost beasts may not reach the vicinity of Forgotten Village until late at night." Liu Weizi said.

Shang Liangshan nodded and controlled the phantom thunder cloud to return to the rock peak.

In the forest, a tall ghost beast with a single horn on its head, similar to a wolf, was silently looking at a distant white cloud in the sky, with a thoughtful look in its eyes.

A moment later, it led a group of powerful ghost wolf beasts to the east, seemingly intending to stay away.

Late at night, in the woods outside the Forgotten Village, there was a hazy gray fog, and it was chilly and filled with endless roaring sounds, as if it was the territory of ghost beasts.

A group of ghost beasts were wandering in the mountains and forests, their dark eyes cast towards the brightly lit village wall, which was the place where they longed to hunt.

Hidden at the edge of the village are densely packed traps and thorn forests, which are defense belts carefully arranged by the military and civilians to protect their homes.

However, these traps are like bait to the ghost beasts, tempting them to come and die.

To be precise, it was the soldiers and civilians on duty on the village wall, emitting the scent of flesh and blood that tempted the ghost beasts to linger.

Suddenly, a ghost beast could no longer suppress its primitive bloodthirstiness and stepped into the trap area first. Its footsteps were light, as if it wanted to avoid the attack of the trap.

However, its luck was not good. One of its feet suddenly stepped on empty air, and its whole body lost balance and fell into a bottomless trap.

There were bursts of screams coming from the trap. When the other ghost beasts heard the sounds and looked over, there was a flash of fear and hesitation in their eyes.

However, greedy desires drove them, making them forget their fear and hesitation, and bloodthirstiness prevailed over everything.

So, one after another, the ghost beasts stepped into the trap area. They either stepped on empty air, were pierced, or were dragged underground by the trap.

Every failure is accompanied by a shrill scream, which is creepy.

On the village wall, Yishui looked at this scene and couldn't help but frown, just because the ghost beast commander did not restrain his subordinates and seemed to be condoning them.

This made him ponder. Could it be that the ghost beasts with low intelligence were intentionally allowed to trigger the trap in a way that would allow them to die, thus paving the way for the attack?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shudder all over. What a cruel and ruthless opponent.

"Whoosh" the wind sounded, it was Heizi who came back from investigating the situation and brought back some bad news, that is, the army of ghost beasts did not attack the wooden fence defense line, but gathered towards the forest opposite the Forgotten Village, the number was at least over 80,000.

"Heizi, why is the ghost bird nowhere to be seen?" Yishui asked the question in his mind.

"Haha, I'm afraid they are hiding and using them as air forces. You should be careful. However, you can rest assured that the master has a countermeasure."

"Transformation?" Yishui blurted out.

Kuroko nodded in confirmation.

"That's good, that's good." Yishui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

If the sky and the ground were attacked, Forgotten Village would surely be in chaos.

"Haha, Ben Heizi is leaving. Let's go to the north to have a look."

"Be careful." Yishui warned.

Due to their limited strength, the falcons were arranged to patrol the center of the village, so the periphery of the village is now patrolled by Heizi and Yoruichi.

In the sky, Kuroko was patrolling on his own, while the vicinity of Forgotten Village was patrolled by Yoruichi and Takaichi, who were leading their new followers. It could be seen that there were shadows moving through the gloomy sky.

"It's so scary!" A round-faced female student on the west side of the market gate said in a trembling voice as she listened to the roars and howls that came one after another.

"Don't be afraid. The bows in our hands are not vegetarian."

"Yes, don't be afraid, otherwise you will be looked down upon."

"But the roar is really scary."

"If you are useless, go to the medical clinic before leaving the camp and wait for orders. Don't stay here and disrupt the morale of the army."

On the arrow tower, Lin Weiwei and Yang Hong listened to the female students' discussions and were not surprised at all.

Li Huiling on the side had a complicated expression. If such discussions were heard in the army, they would definitely be charged with disturbing the morale of the troops.

"Junior Sister Li, it's time to make a decision. Let the frightened students go to the clinic and wait. Once the ghost beast attacks, there will be no chance to regret." Lin Weiwei said lightly.

"Senior Sister, if this is the case, what is the point of training so hard?"

"The meaning is that after you have gained more experience, you can get married with peace of mind."

"This..." Li Huiling was speechless.

"Mr. Li, this is the reality. It has always been like this in our Women's Academy. Only a few students can stay." Yang Hong sighed.

The Jingong Women's College is strong. It can be said to be strong, but it is not strong either.

The strength lies in the female cultivators who stay and have perseverance, and the strength lies in the marriage.

The weakness is that few students can stay.

If a force wants to grow and become stronger, it needs strong follow-up power, and what the Women's College lacks is follow-up power.

The comparison between the Women's College and the Forgotten Town is completely polarized.

Today's Forgotten Township can be said to have accumulated strength and is ready to explode. The military and civilians are in awe of the army of ghost beasts, but they are not afraid of them. This is the difference.

If compared with the Xuanxu Sect, there is no comparison at all. They are actively assisting the military and civilians in defense and making full preparations for this war.

It is said that the disciples of Xuanxu Sect worked desperately to make talismans in order to prepare for this war, and each person had at least a hundred.

The combat team went through several drills, and Liu Weizi even gave his disciples golden talismans and asked them to kill the enemy with all their strength.

"Da Mang, what are you doing?" On the village wall, Liu Taozi saw the hunting team, the captain of the tenth team, Yi Damang, holding a large iron barrel, pointing it at the mountains and forests outside the village, and was about to light the fuse, so he couldn't help but ask.

The seventeen-year-old Damang laughed and said, "Brother Tao, this is a flame bomb, used for lighting. The elder asked me to launch it to see if I can scare the ghost beast."

"Oh, I'd like to take a look." Liu Taozi became interested.

"Hehe, just wait and see." Yi Damang lit the fuse.
