Volume Four, Three Southern Counties, Chapter 288, Hell Trial Ground
Moreover, this place is not a real battlefield.
To be precise, it should be a trial ground.
The demon race and the human race faced off, sending their own geniuses and warriors of various levels to fight each other to see who could not hold it back first.
The death of a large number of geniuses will inevitably lead to the emergence of fault lines.
This group of geniuses and warriors cannot be promoted to high-level warriors, and there will be no people available to the Zhou Dynasty by then.
Of course, the same is true for the demon clan.
Now it depends on which one, the human race or the demon race, can't bear it first!
Whoever withdraws from the battlefield first means that he or she has insufficient foundation.
There are hundreds of millions of people under the command of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and there will be no shortage of monsters in the Demon Realm. It all depends on who is tougher.
Lu Jiuzhang continued to read. The third page of the file was a simple map, which marked the places where monsters and human warriors gathered in large numbers.
The gathering place of monsters has been carefully circled, and no unauthorized entry is allowed.
The later files describe the weaknesses of some monsters and how to fight against them. Most of them were summarized by predecessors and are quite valuable.
After Lu Jiuzhang read it, he returned the file to Peng Qiang.
"I understand the general situation pretty much." Lu Jiuzhang said, "Second uncle, after you enter the battlefield, you hide your cultivation level, and the rest..."
Lu Jiuzhang paused and glanced at the people in front of him, "First think of a way to build a stronghold in the battlefield."
Once you have a stronghold, you can act better.
The entire battlefield covers most of Shiwanda Mountain and part of the territory of Nanxiang County outside Shiwanda Mountain.
The battlefield is huge, and if put together, it will not be smaller than the scope of a county.
It contains a lot of opportunities, it just depends on whether you have the ability to take them.
…
After leaving the castle, there were more corpses outside.
Behind a hill, a monster beast was eating the bones of a human warrior.
The level of that demonic beast is too low, it is only the ninth level of demonic cultivation.
The fat little Zhou Zheng wanted to take action, but was stopped by Peng Qiang, "Little Prince, there are too many situations like this outside the castle. Taking action would be a waste of your own spiritual power."
"Besides, that warrior is already dead. If you want to avenge him, you might as well kill more monsters."
"After all the monsters here have been killed and the monsters have been driven away, we can then take this man's bones away and bury him alive."
Peng Qiang tried to dissuade him.
Passing through several hills, the scene just now happened again.
On this battlefield, human warriors hunted monsters, and monsters gnawed on corpse bones... There were too many such situations.
There were vultures hovering in the sky, and a monster that was eating the corpse of a human warrior only raised its head slightly when it saw someone arriving, then lowered its head and continued to eat.
The monster's eyes were blood red, as if it had lost its mind.
It was a mess, the entire battlefield was extremely desolate, and there was thick smoke in the distance. A deep sense of sadness filled everyone's hearts.
"If you stay here for a long time, you might go crazy."
Zhou Zheng sighed, "So many people from the Demon Slayer Division have dedicated their lives here, and the new emperor should reward them."
When he said this, the little fat man Zhou Zheng also glanced at Captain Jin Jia.
After entering the battlefield, the golden armored warrior had already changed his clothes.
Otherwise, his golden armor would be too eye-catching here and would be easily spotted.
Sensing the gaze of the little fat man Zhou Zheng, Captain Jin Jia remained silent, unable to see what he was thinking.
"Huhuhu..."
Suddenly, there was a sound of gasping.
A man with a scar on his face appeared in front of several people's eyes.
He crossed the hill and rushed towards the direction of the crowd. After seeing Lu Jiuzhang and others, he even shouted, "Finally, I met a living person!"
After that, he sat down in front of Lu Jiuzhang and others, breathing heavily.
The first second he saw the scarred man, Peng Qiang felt a little unhappy.
At first glance, this person has no ability or background.
Are you here to steal your own job?
Besides myself, who can be the little prince and the loser of Mr. Lu and others?
If you establish a good relationship with Lu Jiuzhang and others, wouldn't it mean that you go sideways in the future?
If his job was taken away by the person in front of him, how could he survive?
"Ahem..." Peng Qiang coughed twice, "This warrior, we are not from the same place. Just go back where you came from. There is no need to get close to me."
Having said that, Peng Qiang looked at the fat boy Zhou Zheng again, "Xiao Wang... ahem, Brother Zhou, on the battlefield, you must not trust outsiders, especially those with unknown origins."
People's hearts are unpredictable. In this trial field, not only monsters are enemies, but also certain human warriors.
This place was beyond the jurisdiction of the Zhou Dynasty, and killing people and stealing goods was common.
In order to make yourself stronger, you can use any method.
"Don't, don't!"
The unfamiliar scar-faced man hurriedly defended nervously, "Everyone, I was chased by a monster and that's why I escaped here. We are honest people, please don't misunderstand me."
After the scar-faced man finished speaking, traces of several monsters appeared on the hill.
The leading monster had actually transformed. After checking to see if the people below were weak, they retreated silently.
Seeing this scene, the scar-faced man continued, "Have you all seen it? Really, if I hadn't been chased by monsters, I wouldn't have escaped here."
"There are many of you, so those monsters won't conflict with you. I'm also thinking about my own life. For the sake of being fellow human warriors, a few brothers will let me escape this crisis for the time being, okay?"
The person in front of him was indeed being chased by monsters, but Lu Jiuzhang always felt something strange.
Without waiting for Lu Jiuzhang to ask, the little fat man Zhou Zheng asked, "Why are those monsters chasing you?"
"Hey, this is easy. I have to mention our glorious deeds." The strange scar-faced man said with pride, "I hunted a king-level monster's heir."
"The descendant of a king-level monster is at the fifth level of martial arts and is worth 10,000 points of merit. Add in his identity and multiply it a hundred times, which is 1 million points of merit!"
The scar-faced man said slowly, "Among the monsters that appeared on the hill just now, the leader of the shape-shifting monster is his own brother. That's why he pursues me so hard."
"I believe they won't just let it go. You just need to help me and bring me back to the castle safely. After that, how about I give you 100,000 merit points?"
100,000 merit points!
This is no small sum!
They spent 3,000 merit points and rested one night at the inn.
These 100,000 merit points can allow everyone to rest in the inn for about a month.
Especially Peng Qiang, his eyes almost turned green when he heard about 100,000 points of merit.
According to the external exchange rules, one point of merit is worth 10,000 taels of silver.
100,000 points of merit is 1 billion taels of silver! This chapter has been completed!
