Traveling through troubled times: Princess disguises herself as a man and becomes a soldier to earn

The vine jumped twice on the ground like a living thing, and suddenly became much larger. It stretched out many roots, which pierced into the soil and drilled into it. The roots followed the direction of the blood and continued to grow longer and longer.

It came out not long after, and the vine bent and pointed straight in one direction. Everyone looked over there and saw that it was an area with large rocks and no grass growing. Normally no one would go there.

Jiang Li looked carefully, several images flashed through her mind, and realization flashed in her eyes. Yes, the black fog and those puppets she had captured before were all in the cave, so it seemed that the old nest should also be in the cave.

No wonder I encountered that thing last time. It turned out to be so close to me.

Green E exclaimed, "Ah, come and see, the blood is disappearing faster, and the color of the soil is changing. I see, there is something wrong here. Damn, that thing couldn't have sucked away the blood on the battlefield through the formation."

"...!!"

Everyone was silent, looked at each other, and sighed deeply.

Si Ling took out a book, opened it and looked at it carefully, then squatted down and held the soil in his hands, and a low and suppressed voice sounded: "It's too late, it's too late, the formation has been completed."

"But it's not without a chance. Come and see. According to the records in the classics, the requirements of this formation are very strict. It is also inevitably related to the strength of that thing. Now it is eager to absorb blood and energy in order to recover."

"But the blood and energy on the battlefield is not enough. In other words, he can only recover most of it, but not completely. If he truly recovers, this formation will become a killing formation."

Wen Ruosheng flipped through it, his expression becoming increasingly grim. “You’re right. If this is a complete formation, and it exerts its full power, I’m afraid that the moment it is activated, all the living people in the entire city will be instantly sucked dry.”

"As for us, it is impossible that there is no impact at all. So I guess that this formation is incomplete and not complete. In this way, it can only absorb the blood that has been spilled on the ground, but not the blood of living people."

"But no matter whether it is true or not, it is just speculation. The people in the city must get away as soon as possible. This formation has a distance limit. If you stay far away, even if there is an accident, the people will not be in danger."

Si Ling nodded and agreed, "Yes, that's what I meant. If the records in the classics are correct, the complete formation did appear before, but it was destroyed. You can imagine what kind of price one would pay for destruction."

"Let's go back to the city and let the people move away as soon as possible. As for that thing, it will use the formation to absorb blood and energy, so it will not be able to leave here. You all have to be careful and don't go out alone."

"I'm afraid of the assassin. What it wants most is our blood to help it recover its full strength. So the fact that we're all alive is a form of restraint in itself. Alright, let's all act as soon as possible."

Jiang Li looked back at the empty battlefield, then looked up at the gloomy sky and shouted, "Wait, do you think the laws of nature will allow this kind of ghost thing to exist? If not, can I use it?"

Everyone was confused and didn't understand what she meant. Then they saw a figure flash by. Looking at her back, Su Xuemei was helpless: "What's going on? What is the way of heaven? I don't understand it at all."

"...I don't know. Let's go back first. Normal people can't understand the thoughts of a madman. If the princess is willing to do it, let her do it. Anyway, we will know after we try out its power."

in a few days

Except for the soldiers defending the city, most of the people in the city have been moved away. The soil on the battlefield has returned to its original color, and there is no sign that it was once stained red with blood.

The atmosphere became increasingly depressing. Everyone looked at the gloomy sky and felt that a storm was about to come. Perhaps this was the last calm. Once the war started, it would be hard to say whether they could survive in the future.

Su Xuemei looked at the busy figure on the battlefield, a little speechless: "It's already this time, what on earth is the girl doing, why are you getting those iron wires and iron pillars, wasting so much iron."

The others remained silent...

Jiang Li tried a small-range voltage amplification and found the effect was very good. It was much less troublesome than using her supernatural power directly. The most important thing was to draw down thunder from the sky, and the attack range was much larger than if she used it directly.

The only risk is that if she is not careful, she might be struck to death. The energy of the thunder is not something she can absorb, and if she is overwhelmed, she might explode. That is her last resort, and she should only try it as a last resort.

He exhaled and murmured, "God bless me, please help me and kill those ghosts. I will never scold you again and will burn incense and offer sacrifices to you. The end of science is superstition. I understand!"

He muttered to himself and then became serious: "Everyone, you must strictly follow the positions I have measured. The distance cannot be too far or too close. If you need to smash things down, just leave it to me. My hands are more useful than hammers."

Jiang Li flew up as he spoke, and smashed down on several iron pillars with his palm. Dust flew up, and when everyone could see clearly, a row of pillars had been smashed. They were stunned.

Huo Minghao's eyes widened and he stammered, "Princess, you are so strong, so great."

He waved his hands and spoke modest words, his face full of pride, as if to say "praise me, praise me quickly", which made everyone laugh and cry.

"Ahem, the princess is really amazing. With the princess here, we can move much faster. I estimate that in two days, we can surround them all. I just don't know what the princess wants to do with this."

Jiang Li smiled mysteriously and winked: "Hehe, I can't tell you this. You may see it in the future, but I still hope that you don't use this thing. Once you use it, it will be the end of our road."

His expression changed, revealing a melancholy look: "Be busy. Let me know when you need me."

He tapped his toes and flew onto the pillar. Holding the blueprint in his hand, he compared it with the pillars on the battlefield. After making sure that there was no problem with the deployment, he let out a breath and tested the local conductivity one by one.

Everyone saw her flying around, with some light flickering, but they couldn't see clearly what she was doing. Huo Boshan urged her, "Don't watch, hurry up and work, finish the work the princess has asked you to do as soon as possible."

"...Yes, General."

In the dark cave, there were bursts of wild laughter from a man. He clenched his fists, feeling the power filling his body. His blood-red eyes were frighteningly bright. He stood up and walked towards the priest, smiling: "You did a good job on this matter."

The priest lowered his head and said, "I dare not. This is what I should do. It's just that the formation is damaged. Otherwise, the effect would be better..."

Li Shang shook his head, his eyes filled with evil charm: "It doesn't matter. If they die like this, wouldn't it be boring? I will kill them bit by bit, but I won't let them die so easily."
