Slaying God: I, the insane and witty god

Chapter 667: The Beast Tide Arrives Suddenly and the Heart is Uneasy

The construction site at Shenlongguan is bustling with activity.

The golden sunset shone on the unfinished city wall. The workers were sweating profusely and worked hard to lay the last brick.

Lu Qiu stood at the highest point of the wall, holding an old telescope in his hand, his eyes firm but with a hint of uneasiness.

The atmosphere around became increasingly solemn, as if some ominous premonition was permeating the air.

"Hurry up, faster!" Fang Zuo's voice echoed in the construction site. The night watchman's voice was filled with unquestionable firmness.

He shuttled back and forth, directing the workers to complete the final repair task as quickly as possible.

Lu Qiu's eyes were fixed on the foggy border ahead, which was the last line of defense of Shenlong Pass.

Although he had been busy all day, he couldn't help but pick up the telescope and observe carefully.

The fog is still so thick, as if hiding countless unknown dangers.

At this moment, his hand trembled slightly, and the image in the telescope became blurred in an instant.

He hurriedly readjusted the focus, and the next moment, a flash of light appeared in the distant fog, followed by a deafening explosion.

"boom--"

There was a constant ringing in Lu Qiu's ears, and he suddenly felt a sense of fear.

His heart sank suddenly and he almost dropped the telescope in his hand.

He suppressed his inner fear and looked towards the foggy border again.

This time, he saw a scene that made his hair stand on end: in the fog,

The black dots gradually gathered together to form a huge black tide, which rushed towards Shenlong Pass like a huge wave.

"Beast tide!" Lu Qiu's voice trembled in the wind, and a look of horror appeared on his face.

His palms were covered in cold sweat and he almost collapsed to the ground.

But he knew that this was not the time to give up.

Turning quickly, Lu Qiu picked up the walkie-talkie and pressed the call button with trembling fingers.

"Attention everyone in Shenlong Pass! We are about to face a beast tide attack! Immediately enter level one alert, everyone must be at designated locations and on standby!"

There were bursts of noisy voices coming from the intercom. Obviously, everyone was frightened by this sudden situation.

Lu Qiu's voice echoed in the air, but there was no hesitation at all.

"Lu Qiu, this... this is impossible!" Fang Zuo's voice came from the intercom, with disbelief and shock.

"Believe it or not, we must act now!" There was an unquestionable firmness in Lu Qiu's voice.

He put down the walkie-talkie and turned to look at the fog in the distance.

The black dots were getting closer and closer, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of blood, and it seemed that even the earth was shaking.

"How could all this... happen so suddenly?" Countless questions emerged in Lu Qiu's mind, but he knew that now was not the time to think about these things.

"Fang Zuo, you continue to command everyone to defend Shenlong Pass. I will go to Tujiao Pass to ask for help!"

Fang Zuo nodded.

"Lu Qiu, be careful, we will wait for you to come back."

Lu Qiu took a deep breath and nodded.

He turned around and walked quickly out of the pass, praying silently in his heart, hoping that all this was just a nightmare.

At the same time, everyone was busy at the construction site in Shenlongguan.

The soldiers quickly rushed to their respective posts, and the workers quickly picked up their weapons and prepared to fight.

The tension in the air was almost condensed into substance, and everyone was so nervous that they couldn't breathe.

Suddenly, a voice came from the crowd, breaking the solemn atmosphere.

"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it..." The expert's voice was filled with a wry smile. His eyes fell on Lu Qiu's back, as if he was saying something, but he hesitated.

Lu Qiu's figure gradually disappeared in the night, and the people in Shenlong Pass,

They also faced their greatest test in the face of this sudden beast tide.

The expert feels that his crow's mouth is really blessed, and it doesn't work for good, but works for bad!

The previous second, I was still lamenting that I had achieved the series in my lifetime.

The next second, the beast tide really came, and the slap in the face came so fast, like a tornado.

He rubbed his increasingly thinning hair and frowned.

This beast tide came in a strange way, it's unreasonable!

The location of Shenlong Pass is concealed and the defensive fortifications are well-built. It should not have been discovered by the strange beasts so quickly.

Could it be... there is a traitor?

The expert subconsciously looked around. Everyone's face was filled with tension and fear, and there was no clue.

But he always felt something was wrong, like a bone stuck in his mouth while eating fish, unable to go up or down, and feeling very uncomfortable.

Lu Qiu jumped down from the city wall like a nimble cheetah, landing steadily in front of Fang Zuo, stirring up a cloud of dust.

"Lao Fang, how's the communication tower? Has it been repaired?" His voice was a little hoarse with anxiety, as if it had been polished with sandpaper.

Fang Zuo shook his head helplessly, wiped the sweat from his face, and gave a wry smile.

"No, Old Lu, this thing is too delicate and cannot be fixed in a short time. These beasts, it's like they came on time, really..." He couldn't help but swear, but swallowed it back after seeing Lu Qiu's even gloomier face.

"Damn it!" Lu Qiu punched the city wall hard, and the hard bricks and stones trembled slightly under his heavy punch.

"You can see the current situation. This beast tide is coming with great force. We, with so few people, can't hold it off for long!"

Fang Zuo took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

"I estimate that with our current combat power, we can only delay for four minutes at most. Four minutes, no more!"

"Four minutes..." Lu Qiu muttered to himself, frowning.

He quickly calculated the time in his mind. From Shenlong Pass to the nearest Tujiao Pass, even if he tried his best, it would take at least five minutes!

This is simply not enough time!

His heart felt like it was being tightly grasped by an invisible hand, almost suffocating him.

The two were silent for a moment, and the air was filled with suffocating depression.

Suddenly, Lu Qiu seemed to have thought of something and raised his head abruptly, "Lao Fang, I'm going to Tujiao Pass to ask for help! Shenlong Pass is left to you!"

Fang Zuo's face changed suddenly when he heard this.

"No! It's too dangerous! There are monsters everywhere outside now. If you go out alone, it's like committing suicide!!"

His tone was filled with worry, even a hint of trembling.

He knew Lu Qiu's character. Once he made a decision, no one could change it.

But this time is different, this is a gamble with your life!

Lu Qiu patted Fang Zuo's shoulder with a firm tone.

"Don't worry, Lao Fang, I know what's going on! Shenlong Pass can't do without you, but we can't wait for support from Tujiao Pass! This is our only hope!"

He paused, glanced at the terrified faces around him, took a deep breath,

He continued, "If I can't come back...Shenlong Pass is in your hands!"

Fang Zuo wanted to say something else but was interrupted by Lu Qiu.

"Stop talking, Lao Fang. Time waits for no one! Remember, you must hold on and wait for me to come back!"

After saying that, Lu Qiu no longer hesitated and turned to walk towards the edge of the city wall.

He took out an ancient emblem from his bosom and held it tightly in his hand.

The emblem emitted a faint golden light, shining on his resolute face, as if it had coated him with a layer of sacred glory.

"This..." The experts witnessed all this and became even more confused.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know where to start.

He vaguely felt that something was about to happen...

"Everyone, hold on! For our families, for Shenlong Pass, defend it to the death!"

Lu Qiu roared angrily, his voice like a loud bell, shaking the hearts of everyone present.

He no longer hesitated, raised the emblem in his hand high, and muttered something, as if he was reciting some ancient spell.

In an instant, the ancient emblem burst into dazzling golden light.

Like a little sun, it dyes everything around it golden.

A powerful energy wave spread out from Lu Qiu, making everyone's robes rustle.

"This...what is this?!" The expert widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.

He felt the blood in his body boiling, as if it was about to burst out of his body.

He opened his mouth wide, but no sound came out. He could only watch as Lu Qiu's aura continued to rise.

Lu Qiu's body slowly rose into the air, with golden light surrounding him, like a god descending to the earth.

His eyes became extremely sharp, as if they could see through all illusions.

He let out a long roar that shook the whole area. His originally slightly hunched body became straight, and he was completely reborn, as if possessed by the god of war.

"I'm going!" Lu Qiu shouted, and his figure flashed and turned into a golden stream of light.

It flew towards the north at such a fast speed that it disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

Fang Zuo looked at the direction where Lu Qiu left and remained silent for a long time.

He knew that Lu Qiu had used his last trump card, burning his own essence and forcibly improving his realm.

Although this method can gain powerful strength in a short period of time,

But the damage to oneself is also huge, and may even affect one's future path of cultivation.

"Sigh..." Fang Zuo sighed, feeling mixed emotions.

He was moved by Lu Qiu's courage, but also worried about his future.

But he knew that now was not the time to be sad, as the fate of Shenlong Pass was still in his hands.

"Brothers, don't just stand there! Grab your weapons and kill him!"

Fang Zuo turned around abruptly and roared at everyone, his voice full of determination and resoluteness.

"Yes!" Everyone answered in unison, their voices resounding through the sky, dispelling the fear and anxiety in their hearts.

They all picked up their weapons and their eyes became sharp.

Fang Zuo took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

He walked to the city wall, raised the long sword in his hand and pointed it into the distance.

"Everyone, follow my command! Archers, prepare to suppress with long-range fire! Sword and shield soldiers, go ahead and protect the archers! Everyone else, do as you please, and hit hard!"

Fang Zuo's voice echoed in the air, reaching everyone's ears clearly.

The soldiers acted quickly, the archers drew their bows and loaded arrows, and the swordsmen and shieldmen formed a solid line of defense. Everyone performed their duties in an orderly manner.

The expert also came to his senses. He pushed his glasses on his nose and showed a wry smile on his face.

Although he is not a fighter, he is not the kind of person who runs away from the battlefield.

"Damn it, I'm going to try my best too!" The expert rolled up his sleeves, ran to a damaged crossbow and began to study it.

Although he didn't know how to operate a crossbow, he understood the mechanical principles!

Maybe he can fix this thing!

The entire Shenlong Pass was shrouded in a tense and depressing atmosphere.

Everyone knew that what was about to happen was a fierce battle, a battle of life and death.

Fang Zuo stood on the city wall, looking at the black tide getting closer and closer in the distance, his eyes became extremely firm.
