Chapter 160 Peeping!

Nanling City.

On the defensive line outside the city.

After hearing the news, the leaders of all parties and the officers from the Military Staff Office all looked at the massive tide of beasts passing around the city in confusion, with still somewhat frightened expressions in their eyes.

God knows how nervous and desperate they felt when they just discovered that so many high-level monsters were pouring towards their Nanling City from all directions.

The third demon disaster has just ended.

Before the surviving soldiers and civilians in the city even had time to take a breath, eat a warm meal, or bandage their wounds, the fourth wave of beasts started again!

Who the hell can stand this?

However, when everyone dragged their exhausted bodies to the top of the city again, preparing to defend the city with all their lives, they discovered unexpectedly.

These waves of beasts were just passing by and were not coming towards their Nanling City!

Even if they had already arrived in front of the Nanling City Gate, they only crowded in front of the city wall to see each other, and then left quickly.

The soldiers and civilians in the city who were guarding the city wall and were ready to be heroic at any time saw this strange situation. They were ecstatic, but also surprised and confused.

Who can tell them what is going on?

Have all the monsters outside the city changed their gender?

In the past, every time a beast wave broke out, these monster brats would all rush against the city wall like crazy.

They want to jump over the wall, they want to devour all the human survivors in the city, they are a ferocious group.

Why did they turn a blind eye to the city wall in front of them and the human warriors standing on the city wall this time?

Why did they swarm into the mountains to the east of the city in such a hurry?

"When something goes wrong, there must be a monster!"

"These monster bastards are gathering in the mountains desperately, they must have a plan!"

Xu Jinhong, the director of the Military Staff Office of Nanling City, told the guards around him with a solemn expression:

"Order the entire army to be more vigilant and be ready to fight at any time!"

"Tell everyone not to relax even a little bit and beware of any accidents,"

After receiving the order, the guard quickly turned around and left, conveying the director's order to the city defense in each district.

"Director Xu, that's where the gate of Longhu Mountain is. Do you think it's possible that the beast tide this time is coming towards Longhu Mountain?"

Next to Xu Jinhong, Police Commissioner Zhao Shanchuan spoke in a solemn voice, making guesses.

"Director Xu must have heard the shocking beast roar that came from the mountains before, right?"

"This beast tide seems to have begun to gather and take shape after the roar came out..."

Xu Jinhong nodded slightly. The beast's roar was like a dragon's roar, resounding throughout the sky. It could be heard within dozens of kilometers, so he naturally heard it too.

It's just that the city had just experienced a tragic battle to protect the city. Even if he was suspicious, he didn't have the energy to send people to investigate again.

But don't want to.

Only ten minutes had passed, and there was such a strange movement outside the city!

"Whether we are heading towards Longhu Mountain or not, Longhu Mountain may be doomed this time!"

Before Xu Jinhong could speak, Wei Nanshan, the master of Nanshan Martial Arts Hall standing next to him, interjected with some gloating:

"Look, in addition to the massive beast tide on the ground, there are thousands of flying monsters in the air, as well as human puppets controlled by the monsters, and they are also flying into the mountains at the same time!"

Um?

Hearing this, Xu Jinhong and others followed the direction of Wei Nanshan's finger and raised their heads to look upward.

I happened to see a group of human warriors and some high-level monsters gliding past in mid-air.

The expressions of several people couldn't help but change at the same time.

A human puppet with a golden body?!

And there are so many at once?!

What does this mean?

This shows that among the group of monsters, there must be a high-level phantom monster that can hypnotize psychedelic golden body warriors!

For more than half a year since the end of the world, Xu Jinhong and others have become extremely fearful of this special kind of monster, the Phantom Demon.

They can completely hypnotize a person or a group of people without even realizing it, turning them into killing machines and puppets without any sense of autonomy.

In the previous three beast tides and city defense battles, the soldiers and civilians who suffered the most casualties in Nanling City were basically due to attacks by phantom demons!

Many people did not die in the mouths of beasts, but died in the hands of their comrades and companions without defense.

What makes them feel even more desperate is that so far, they have no effective means to deal with the phantom demon.

Every time the phantom demon appeared, it would be discovered by nearby martial arts masters only after causing huge casualties, and they would be suppressed and killed with their martial will.

And now, those human puppets appearing above Nanling City are all Golden Body Realm warriors!

Even the Golden Body Realm warriors have fallen into the trap and turned into puppets without self-awareness.

How powerful must the phantom demon that hypnotized and enchanted them behind the scenes be?

Who can handle this...?

"With so many golden-body monsters and human puppets coming out, let alone a small Dragon Tiger Mountain, even our Nanling City may not be able to stop them!"

"It's not that I'm gloating over misfortune, but those old Taoist priests who would rather die than come down the mountain are to blame for themselves!"

"Last time, we sent people to invite them over and over again, asking them to move to Nanling City and join us to defend the enemy and survive together."

"But they don't show any respect at all. Relying on their status as a thousand-year-old martial sect, they don't take us seriously at all!"

"What's even more outrageous is that they are guarding us as much as they are guarding against thieves, fearing that we might secretly learn their martial arts inheritance from Longhu Mountain. This is really unreasonable!"

"What now? Is retribution coming?"

"How can the hundreds of warriors in Longhu Mountain with no city walls to rely on, no natural dangers to defend, and no backup to help them withstand this dense tide of beasts, as well as the thousands of high-level golden bodies flying from the sky?

Monsters and puppets?”

"What's more, among these monster beasts, there is a high-level phantom monster that can even be controlled by a warrior in the Golden Body Realm!"

Wei Nanshan continued to mock and expressed his many dissatisfaction with Longhu Mountain.

In the end of the world, the only way to survive and coexist is to stay together and help each other.

The group of Taoist priests in Longhu Mountain pretended to be noble and were never willing to go down the mountain. They were unwilling to protect Nanling City together with the soldiers and civilians of Nanling City. They deserved this calamity!

"Okay, Master Wei, it's better to keep your mouth shut and don't complain here."

Police Director Zhao Shanchuan responded and said:

"Longhu Mountain is certainly doomed, but after all, they have a Grandmaster standing guard. Even if they are defeated, they can escape and save their lives."

"But can our soldiers and civilians in Nanling City do the same?"

"Longhu Mountain is less than thirty kilometers away from our Nanling City. If they suffer an accident, our side will inevitably be implicated!"

"Not to mention this overwhelming tide of beasts, just the high-level phantom monster hiding in the dark is enough for us!"

"Instead of making sarcastic remarks here, we should think more about how to deal with it if this beast tide turns around, or if we are also targeted by that high-level phantom demon!"

Well!

Wei Nanshan's breath was stagnant, and he was so shocked that he was speechless.

Zhao Shanchuan is right. There are several masters stationed in Longhu Mountain. If the situation is not good, they can abandon the mountain and flee to save their lives.

Once Longhu Mountain falls, Nanling City may be the next to suffer misfortune.

Once the tide of beasts turns around, Nanling City will definitely be affected!

The beast tide was actually not bad. Fortunately, they had the city wall to rely on. They didn't have to worry about the beast tide pouring into the city for a while, and they could still get a little breathing space.

But how to block the high-level phantom demon?

There is not even a single Grandmaster-level warrior in their Nanling City, so how can they resist the invasion of high-level phantom demons?

Once these golden bodies are controlled by the phantom demon and lose their sanity, Nanling City will surely be lost soon!

For a moment, several people were silent at the same time, their expressions were gloomy, ugly, and uneasy.

There is no Grandmaster level warrior in Nanling City, which has always been their biggest weakness.

That's why they sent people to the nearby Longhu Mountain again and again to pay homage and burn incense, hoping to get the support and blessing of this thousand-year-old sect in Longhu Mountain.

Even if the other party doesn't want to move the clan into Nanling City, it would be good to send a Taoist priest who is at the Grand Master level to be there from time to time.

However, Longhushan ignored their appeals. In recent times, they didn't even bother to see them again.

If this were not the case, Wei Nanshan would not have been so gloating and taunting him just now.
