Chapter 143: Save (Please subscribe, please collect, please vote for the monthly ticket and recommend the ticket)
Dozens of monsters fell to the ground, their bodies scattered all over the place, making dull sounds.

Wei Bufan blinked his eyes, and only then realized that the monster he had just pushed down had its head rolled away for who knows how far.

It was not that he had a breakthrough in the middle of the battle and comprehended the artistic conception, so there was a reversal.

It's just that the monster was killed by someone.

"Who is this? So fierce!"

Seeing the newcomer charging into the group of monsters, a long sword swung like a violent storm, and forcibly cleared a large space among the monsters.

Wei Bufan was stunned and muttered to himself.

"Under Captain Lin, the Taiping Commander Su Mu."

Zhong Guizheng panted and said in a deep voice.

"Follow!"

He pulled Wei Bufan up and followed Su Mu to kill forward.

"Su Mu? When did Captain Lin have such a person under his command? How come I don't know about him?"

Wei Bufan stumbled to catch up, still muttering, "Is this the new recruit that Captain Lin took in?
That’s not right. How could a newcomer be so powerful?
Was he parachuted in from above?
Wow, the artistic conception of Kan water and Xun wind!
Lao Zhong, compared to others, you are a waste. "

"I am trash, then what are you? I have comprehended the conception of Genshan, have you comprehended it?"

Zhong Guizheng couldn't help but say.

"I'm useless."

Wei Bufan's words left Zhong Guizheng speechless.

"Fuck, what did I see? Lao Zhong, am I dazzled? Is this fierce new guy really going to shine?"

Wei Bufan shouted loudly.

"You are not seeing things, that is his physical magical power."

Zhong Guizheng said expressionlessly.

"He still has physical powers?"

Wei Bufan widened his eyes. This was too fierce. What a monster.

It’s incredible that he has comprehended two levels of artistic conception, but does he also have physical magical powers?
Physical supernatural powers can only be created when the body is tempered to the limit.

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!"

Wei Bufan vented his shock.

Now only this word can express his feelings.

Su Mu rushed to the front with a sword in hand. Wherever he went, no monster could defeat him with a single move.

Soon, he had gathered all the Taiping commanders together.

Then he started to kill towards Wuling City.

Although the monsters were still pouring in, he was like a sharp chisel, carving a gap in the large group of monsters.

Zhong Guizheng and Wei Bufan followed closely behind Su Mu. Looking at Su Mu charging in front, there was a strange look in his eyes.

What did he see?
In addition to the Kan water artistic conception and the Xun wind artistic conception, Junior Brother Su also mastered the Gen mountain artistic conception?
Zhong Guizheng couldn't believe his eyes. He opened them wide and found that he was not mistaken.

Different from the Kan Water artistic conception and the Xun Wind artistic conception which were fully released, Junior Brother Su's Gen Mountain artistic conception was not fully displayed.

Perhaps it was because his strength was not enough to display three realms of mind at the same time.

Or maybe it's for some other reason.

If I had not also comprehended the Genshan artistic conception, it would have been impossible for me to discover the faint Genshan artistic conception contained in the moves.

Three artistic conceptions!

Junior Brother Su actually mastered three artistic conceptions!

If this news were made public, it would definitely cause an earthquake in Wuling City.

In Wuling City, no one has yet mastered the three realms of artistic conception.

Even Zhao Zhenfushi had only mastered two artistic conceptions, but it was just that Zhao Zhenfushi had reached the highest level in one of them.

Zhong Guizheng was shocked, but no sound came out of his mouth.

I thought that if I understood the artistic conception of Genshan, I would be able to consolidate my position as the strongest man under Captain Lin.

Now it seems that I thought too much.

I have only comprehended one artistic conception, while Junior Brother Su has already comprehended three.

Zhong Guizheng sighed secretly in his heart. After comprehending the artistic conception of Genshan, he not only did not feel that the gap between himself and Junior Brother Su had narrowed, but he felt that the gap had widened.

Only when you truly understand the artistic conception can you understand how difficult it is to understand the three artistic conceptions.

A thought flashed through his mind, but Zhong Guizheng said nothing.

He is not a talkative person. Since Junior Brother Su himself did not mention the artistic conception of Genshan, he would not say anything either.

Swish!
Swish!
It's too late, but it's soon.

Su Mu took the lead, cutting a bloody path through the group of monsters, and led a few people forward for more than a mile.

At this moment, the roaring monsters all around suddenly began to fall down in large numbers.

Sharp arrows fell from the sky.

But they had already entered the range of the Demon-Destroying Crossbow on the city wall.

"My fellow brothers, please go back to the city first, I will hold them off for a while!"

Su Mu shouted loudly.

Zhong Guizheng, Zhang Chenchen and others were already at the end of their strength. Even if they received support, they did not have the strength to continue fighting.

Su Mu could only buy them some more time.

As he spoke, Su Mu had already drawn the Ziwei soft sword in his hand, with a knife in his left hand and a sword in his right hand, firing at full power, like a single man guarding the pass, and with the help of crossbows shot from the top of the city, he forcibly curbed the momentum of the monster tide.

"Don't hesitate, let's go. In our current state, staying here will only be a burden!"

Zhang Chenchen struggled to run towards Wuling City.

Zhong Guizheng, Wei Bufan and others also understood this, so they did not stay to try to be heroes.

If they have a chance to survive, they certainly won't volunteer to die.

Is Su Mu trying to be a hero?

of course not!

From the beginning to the end, he was not trying to be a hero, he just wanted to earn some performance points.

Hearing the footsteps of Zhang Chenchen and Zhong Guizheng behind him, Su Mu glanced at the system panel.

[Position: Outer City Commander/Taiping Commander (Seventh Rank)]

There was a new temporary identity in the identity column on the system panel.

Commander of the outer city.

This appeared after Su Mu got the token of the inner city.

Originally, after becoming the Taiping Duwei, all other identities were excluded.

Originally, Su Mu thought that the identity of the Taiping Division was unique and exclusive, but unexpectedly, he now had an additional identity as a temporary commander.

After thinking about it, he realized that the exclusivity of the Taiping Division's identity was also selective.

Some identities can be held concurrently.

For example, a temporary position set up during wartime, such as the outer city commander.

Although Su Mu's rank did not change, he was temporarily assigned an official job.

The temporary commander's duty is to lead the outer city to resist the tide of monsters.

The better you complete the task, the more performance points you will get.

Simply put, if he kills a monster first, he will not only get performance points for his status as Taiping Duwei, but also get another performance point for his status as temporary commander-in-chief.

Pay once, gain twice as much.

Su Mu couldn't help but sigh that he was born with the body of an ox or a horse. Is it easy to earn some performance points?

Fortunately, although this temporary identity has no basic points, there is no upper limit on performance points.

This is clearly different from other identities.

His normal status is just a fixed salary, but this temporary status is equivalent to being solely responsible for a project. The more the project earns, the more bonus he can get as the project leader, and there is no upper limit!

What else is there to say?

Go for the performance points.

Zhang Chenchen, Zhong Guizheng, Wei Bufan and others grabbed the rope and climbed up the outer city wall. When they looked back, they saw Su Mu still blocking the tide of monsters. He was like a stone, nailed firmly on the cusp of the storm, and no monster could move forward.

"From now on, I will respectfully call him my tough guy brother."

Wei Bufan muttered softly.

"Junior Brother Su, you can come back now!"

At this moment, Zhang Chenchen had already mobilized his blood and energy and shouted loudly.

Su Mu looked back and saw that everyone had escaped successfully, so he also began to fight and retreat.

"Release your arrows and support the commander!"

Zheng Tu, Chen Song and others shouted at the top of their lungs.

At this time, the training results of the warriors in the outer city in recent days also showed up.

The warriors in the outer city, who were originally a group of scattered sand, now appear to be well-trained. Some of them are shooting with the Magic-Destroying Crossbows in an orderly manner, while those who do not have the Magic-Destroying Crossbows are quickly preparing other city defense equipment, ready to deal with the monsters' attack on the city.

This scene made Zhang Chenchen, Zhong Guizheng and others look surprised.

"The City Lord's Mansion is doing well this time. They sent all the elite city defense troops from the inner city?"

Seeing that Su Mu had retreated to the foot of the city wall and started to climb up, Wei Bufan breathed a sigh of relief and spoke.

"No one was sent from the inner city. We are all from the outer city."

A passing warrior said casually.

"Outer city? Have I stayed in the mountains for too long? Is this what the outer city looks like now?"

Wei Bufan was stunned.

"Or is it that Wuling City is now so rich that even the outer city has so many magic-breaking crossbows?"

Those people on the city wall shot arrows without any feeling of pain at all.

Each of those magic-destroying crossbow arrows costs silver.

"The commander-in-chief said that we must resist the monster tide at all costs."

Chen Song just came in front of them and explained seriously, "Besides, the outer city is not short of military funds. In order to deal with this beast tide, we have stockpiled 200,000 magic-breaking crossbow arrows."

"Two hundred thousand?"

Even Zhang Chenchen couldn't help but be a little surprised. "As far as I know, the annual taxes in the outer city can't afford so many crossbows."

"You may not know, Commander-in-Chief - oh, I mean Commander Su -"

Despite his busy schedule, Chen Song quickly recounted what Su Mu had done before.

"Dossier exchange for money, one gold coin per word?"

Everyone felt like they were listening to a fairy tale.

"Brother Mengren, you are such a talented person."

Wei Bufan was dumbfounded and finally couldn't help but say.

“Who is the talent?”

At this moment, Su Mu lightly jumped onto the top of the wall.

Compared with the other Taiping commanders, he was not so embarrassed, but his face was full of fatigue.

"Brother Zhong, Sister Zhang, are you all right?"

Su Mu greeted Zhong Guizheng and Zhang Chenchen, "Senior Brother Liu and Senior Brother Ding are stationed in the inner city, you can go back to the inner city to heal your injuries first.

I won’t tell you any more for now, the monster tide is too fierce, I have to arrange people to resist it.”

After saying that, he hurried away, shouting to the outer city warriors on the top of the city wall.

Orders came out of his mouth one after another, and the other warriors in the outer city also rushed out of the city.

"I didn't expect that Junior Brother Su has this ability."

Zhang Chenchen said with emotion, "He actually used all the warriors in the outer city. It seems that the outer city may not be undefendable."

"impossible."

Zhong Guizheng said calmly, "This is only the first wave of demons. Based on what we saw in the mountains, this wave of demons is at least level five.

Now the second-level and third-level monsters have not appeared yet. If there are only first-level monsters, the outer city can still be defended.

What about the second-level monsters and third-level monsters?"

Zhang Chenchen fell silent.

A level five demon tide, not to mention the outer city, even the inner city may not be able to withstand it.

It's a good thing that the pacification envoy is still here. With the city defense equipment, he may still be able to fight.

But the pacification envoy chose to go to the main government office.

"Send the message back to the inner city first. Wuling City cannot resist a level 5 monster on its own. We must ask for help."

Zhang Chenchen said.

The second-level monsters were okay, but the third-level monsters were comparable to those in the True Essence Realm.

Above the Rebirth Stage, one cultivates internal energy and transforms it into True Essence, which is the True Essence Stage.

In the Taiping Division, only the most powerful pacification envoys or commanders are at the True Yuan Realm.

Zhao Po Nu, the pacification envoy of the Taiping Division of Wuling City, is only at the peak of the Transmigration Realm. Not to mention that he is not here, even if he is here, he will be helpless against three or even four third-level monsters.

Wuling City's defensive equipment, those powerful Xuan soldiers, may be able to unleash the power to contend with third-level monsters, but it takes a long time to accumulate energy after each Xuan soldier is activated.

The third-level monsters are not stupid, and it is impossible for them to leave so much time for Wuling City.

The expressions of several people were very solemn.

Wuling City belongs to Jingzhou of the Daxuan Dynasty, and the commander of Jingzhou Taiping Division is at the Zhenyuan realm.

If it were an ordinary day, and a third-level monster appeared in Wuling City, the commander of the Jingzhou Taiping Division would definitely come immediately after receiving the call for help.

But now something has happened in the main office, even Zhao Po Nu has gone to the main office, and a big shot like the commander of the Jingzhou Taiping Division will definitely go to the main office as well.

There are still Zhenyuan Realm pacification envoys in Jingzhou, but the same problem applies, they may not still be stationed there.

Even if one has reached the Zhen Yuan realm, it would take at least a month to rush here from the main office.

Can Wuling City hold out for a month against the level five demon tide?
"I hope the Xuan soldiers of Wuling City can repel the third-level monster."

Zhang Chenchen whispered, lacking confidence in her own voice.

At this moment, cheers suddenly rang out from the top of the city.

"Retreat! The demonic tide has retreated!"

The warriors from the outer city cheered.

The monsters outside the city actually retreated like the tide, retreating to ten miles away, and then lingered there.

Outside Wuling City, the ground was littered with corpses of monsters, and the smell of blood filled the air.

"They actually managed to stop the first wave of monsters?"

Several Taiping captains looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

"Can we not stop it? There are 200,000 magic-breaking crossbow arrows. At least tens of thousands of them were consumed in this battle."

Wei Bufan muttered quietly, "If this thing were exchanged for silver, it would be enough to smash me to death."

The Demon-Breaking Crossbow played a crucial role in blocking the first wave of demons and preventing any casualties among the warriors in the outer city.

What was shot out was not an arrow, but a bunch of silver.

"It's Junior Brother Su's ability to get the money. If you don't agree, you can do it."

Zhong Guizheng snorted coldly.

"I didn't say I was dissatisfied. My admiration for Brother Mengren is like a surging river, which is endless."

Wei Bufan said shamelessly.

"Stop arguing, look outside the city!"

Zhang Chenchen suddenly said.

Everyone turned their heads and looked outside the city.

Suddenly, a body as big as a hill appeared among the group of monsters ten miles away. On the huge body, there was a pair of copper bell-like eyes, emitting a strange red light, looking at Wuling City.

Even though they were more than ten miles away, the terrifying pressure made the people on the city wall silent.

"Level 3 - Monster!"

Several Taiping captains swallowed their saliva and uttered a few words with difficulty.
