Chapter 279: Increase in Strength, the Plan to Catch the Turtle in a Jar (2)
Divine sense was infinitely useful, and what Zhou Shu had developed now was only a small portion of it.
Among his cultivation techniques, Zhou Shu had the highest expectations for the Visualization of the Five Mountains’ True Form.
In the past few days, he had even taken the time to forge a Spring Embroidered Saber.
In the future, when he encountered the Demon Realm army, he planned to use the Spring Embroidered Saber to kill enemies. This way, his Visualization of the Five Mountains’ True Form could improve a little.
In any case, as long as he wasn’t facing a first-rank martial artist, there was not much difference between using standard weapons and ranked weapons.
“Your Highness! Your Highness! Bad news!” Haitang’s cry suddenly sounded in the camp.
She stood on the wall of the camp and waved at Zhou Shu and Yin Wuyou.
They had free labor, so the walls of this camp were built almost like small city walls. There were even small watchtowers and pillboxes built on them.
It might be an exaggeration to call this camp a city, but it was not a problem to call it a fully equipped mountain stronghold.
There might be something wrong with the humanoid demonic beast’s brains. When he translated Zhou Shu’s orders, he even added some of his own pointers. In the end, not only did these demonic beasts do their best when building the camp, but they also took the initiative to add in some things that Zhou Shu had overlooked.
As a result, this camp was like a nest that mountain bandits had carefully built for many years.
“What happened?” Yin Wuyou asked as she floated up and landed on the observation deck.
The camp had limited manpower. Shi Songtao was busy with the forging materials, and Haitang was not idle either. These days, she has been acting as a sentry…
“Your Highness, there’s a Demon Realm army!” Haitang pointed ahead anxiously.
Yin Wuyou looked in the direction she was pointing and indeed saw an army of demons!
The Demon Realm army was much larger than the one in the camp now. At a rough estimate, there were about 5,000 of them.
Moreover, they were advancing toward the camp!
It wouldn’t take long for the Demon Realm army to discover this camp!
“Zhou Shu!” Yin Wuyou was also a little anxious and turned to look at Zhou Shu.
They had spent a lot of effort to build this camp. She definitely didn’t want to give it up just like that.
But if they didn’t give it up, how could the few of them stop the 5,000 Demon Realm troops?
The demonic beasts of the Demon Realm’s armies were all ranked.
Five thousand ranked martial artists could even exhaust a first-rank martial artist to death.
Moreover, it was very likely that there would be first-rank martial artists in the Demon Realm army.
“There’s no need to be nervous.” Zhou Shu was very relaxed. “We’ll deal with whatever comes our way. How many people are heading our way?”
He glanced at the humanoid demonic beast. “Behave yourself and don’t try to make trouble. Otherwise, I can kill you at any time.”
The humanoid demonic beast snorted and turned his head away without saying anything.
In his heart, he was delighted.
This kid probably thinks that with his strength, he can kill through an army of the Demon Realm.
He will soon find out what a great demon is and what a powerhouse is!
When the Demon Realm army surrounds the camp, I’ll coordinate with them and guarantee that this kid will die without a burial place!
Zhou Shu used the Riding on Cloud and Wind Technique and gracefully ascended the wall.
The Demon Realm army was only a hundred kilometers away from the camp. At their speed, they would reach it in half a day at most.
It looked like the first battle at camp was about to happen.
Zhou Shu frowned.
There was no great danger.
At the very least, he could protect Yin Wuyou and the others and retreat.
But just like Yin Wuyou, he wouldn’t give up on the camp so easily.
“Huh?!” Zhou Shu suddenly explained while observing the Demon Realm army.
Several kilometers away from the Demon Realm army, Zhou Shu saw a group of people lying in ambush in the mountains, preparing to ambush the Demon Realm army.
It’s Great Xia’s uniform.
From a hundred kilometers away, even Zhou Shu couldn’t see the faces of those people. He could only roughly make out their clothes.
I wonder who’s leading this army. They actually dare to ambush a Demon Realm army with so few people?
“Grand Minister!” Zhou Shu shouted.
“Here,” Yin Wuyou replied.
“Do you see that?” Zhou Shu pointed to where the Great Xia soldiers were hiding.
“They are our people?” Yin Wuyou’s eyesight was inferior to Zhou Shu’s, but she could vaguely see some shadows.
“That’s right!” Zhou Shu said solemnly. “We didn’t see them before, but that’s not important. Hurry over immediately and stop them from ambushing the Demon Realm army!”
“You want me to bring them back to camp?” Yin Wuyou instantly understood what Zhou Shu meant.
“That’s right. There aren’t many of them. Sneaking up on the Demon Realm army will be like moths to a flame.
“Bring them back to the camp. There’s no need to take the risk now. We still have a chance to attack later.
“We have to be quick. We have to bring them back before the Demon Realm army finds them!”
Actually, it would be best if he rushed over.
He was fast and strong.
But if he left, Yin Wuyou and the other two wouldn’t be able to suppress the humanoid demonic beast and the hundreds of demonic beast miners in the camp.
Other than him, Yin Wuyou’s cultivation was the highest, so he could only let her make the trip.
“Understood!” Yin Wuyou cupped her hands playfully.
Then she flipped over and disappeared into the forest.
Zhou Shu’s gaze followed Yin Wuyou’s figure. A hundred kilometers was neither close nor far.
If Yin Wuyou encountered any danger, he would use his divine ability Unstoppable For a Thousand Miles to rush over even if he had to abandon the camp.
With his current strength, it was not an exaggeration to say that he could travel a hundred kilometers in an instant.
After all, Yin Wuyou was a second-rank martial artist. When she used her full strength, her speed was very fast.
As for the Demonic Realm army, they didn’t seem to be traveling at full speed. Their traveling speed was neither fast nor slow.
In addition, the place where the Great Xia soldiers were hiding was still a distance away from the Demonic Realm army.
Therefore, Yin Wuyou successfully arrived at the location of the Great Xia soldiers before the two sides made contact.
Yin Wuyou said something to the soldiers before leading them toward the camp.
At this moment, Zhou Shu could tell that there weren’t many Great Xia soldiers. There were less than a hundred.
There aren’t many of them, but it’s better than nothing.?Zhou Shu thought that with these people, he could continue to develop the camp after dealing with this Demon Realm army. Otherwise, it would be difficult for the four of them to do anything.
Oh no!?Zhou Shu suddenly frowned.
Yin Wuyou led the dozens of Great Xia soldiers through the forest and headed toward the camp.
The Demonic beast army behind them suddenly accelerated.
“They saw the grand minister!”
Seeing a few powerful birds soaring into the sky from the Demon Realm army, Zhou Shu finally understood.
This army was simply coming for the camp!
With the flying demonic beasts around, they had probably discovered the camp long ago!
These dozens of Great Xia soldiers were probably their prey, but the soldiers were still ignorant.
Zhou Shu frowned. He suddenly remembered that when the demonic beast miners built the camp, they had done a lot of work that he hadn’t instructed them to do. Zhou Shu thought that it was because the humanoid demonic beast’s translation was not good enough, and the effect of their construction was very good.
Now, Zhou Shu seemed to understand.?Did these demonic beasts use some unknown method to spread the news?
I was careless after all!
This language barrier is a big problem. I have to learn the language of the Demon Realm later!
Zhou Shu’s cold gaze landed on the humanoid demonic beast.
The humanoid demonic beast shivered. He looked at Zhou Shu nervously.?This kid didn’t find out about my trap plan, did he?
“Tell me. How do you want to die?” Zhou Shu said coldly.
