Chapter 137: Twenty-four missing, seventeen injured
Master Taiwu's arrangements were quickly conveyed to the front line of knows that the front line is now the most important matter for the Yunyang Sect, and no one dares to neglect it.
The improved treatment and rewards for exploration disciples also attracted the envy of many people on the front line.
However, after the last incident in which two exploratory disciples died and one was injured, the disciples on the front lines did not seem to be so jealous of the exploratory disciples anymore.
When Su Chen was here, he could earn a lot of contributions just by investigating the disciples.
Now, people will really die.
The seventeen disciples who were investigating the surroundings did not always have smooth sailing every day.
I have encountered the golden demon more than once or twice.
In fact, most disciples are not that envious or jealous in their hearts.
Given the current situation in the Yunyang Sect, as long as the sect disciples are willing to carry out the exploration mission, the sect should not refuse.
If you don’t have experience, the sect can even arrange for someone to teach you.
The opportunity is right in front of us, but how many people are willing to take it?
On the seventh day after the three Wanli Sects arrived at the front line, the other four supporting sects also arrived.
These four sects were relatively sincere, and each brought along more than 20 elite disciples.
There are not many of them, but they are all experts in dealing with monsters in their respective sects.
After arriving at the front line, the three sects from Wanli Sect that arrived first, together with Yunyang Sect, held a welcoming ceremony for them.
When seeing the condition of Yang Chenghu and others, the faces of those who arrived later became serious.
One can imagine the pressure on the Yunyang Sect’s front line as they were able to torture all these people into this state.
At the welcoming banquet, the four sects tried to inquire about the situation on the front line.
The hall masters of Yunyang Sect, He Chao and Xia Kun, were still trying to cover up the issue and making excuses.
Yang Chenghu and the head of Tianmu Mansion, under the influence of alcohol, said that the Yunyang Sect was hiding something from everyone.
He Chao and Xia Kun naturally refused to admit it.
There are so many disciples here. If the matter of the beast tide were to be exposed, the impact would definitely not be small.
These hall masters sensed that there was a problem, but they could not produce any evidence.
It was a welcoming banquet, but the atmosphere ended up being a little heavy and uncomfortable.
After the banquet, the four new sect leaders privately found Yang Chenghu and asked him for information.
After hearing Yang Chenghu's detailed account of the problems on the front line, everyone became more serious.
The Yunyang Sect asked them to come and help, but there was really no other way as their own sect was completely unable to handle the situation.
Now that we are here, we can only take one step at a time.
With four more sects coming to reinforce, the pressure was reduced a little.
In addition, the four sects also brought some experts in investigation. Now there are a total of 29 investigation disciples.
This huge team will report a large number of monster traces every day.
After expanding the exploration team, the situation on the front line seems to be better.
After frequent raids, it seems to have stabilized recently.
Being able to get the trace of the monster, it really makes things a lot easier to deal with those beasts.
In the previous four days, the four new reinforcements from the sects had already felt the pressure from the Yunyang Sect's front line.
But compared to before, the disciples who were investigating had become more skilled, and the accuracy of the information they had gathered was also increasing.
There had been no injuries on the entire Yunyang Sect front line for several days.
The effect of the aid is obvious and the situation has been stabilized.
The fifth day, the hour of You.
In the front-line defense camp, several hall masters of the Yunyang Sect called together the hall masters of the other seven sects who were coming to reinforce.
The topic of discussion was about the counterattack on the front line.
Of course, this does not mean pushing the defense line forward.
Instead, they switched from defense to offense, in order to make those monsters suffer huge losses.
Every one that comes must die, and even if a monster escapes, it will not be left with even half a life.
The previous front line of defense was mainly defensive.
Now that we can stabilize it, we naturally have to start attacking.
When Master Zhao Li saw the changes on the front line, she felt a little more relieved. If the counterattack went smoothly, these monsters would suffer losses every time, with most of them killed or injured.
Then this beast tide might come to an abrupt end.
Inside the tent, everyone agreed to change their approach.
Counterattack as quickly as possible and suppress the monster as soon as possible, so that the people coming to help can complete the task faster.
The first day of changing strategy was very peaceful, and there were not even many monsters coming to attack.
He Chao and Xia Kun couldn't help laughing when they saw this scene: "Do these beasts know that we are going to slaughter them all?
He actually just hid and didn't even come.
I’m still not used to it being like this all the time.”
The two of them laughed and talked, looking at the afterglow of the setting sun in the distance, which seemed to be the dawn of victory.
But they both probably forgot that what they were seeing was a sunset.
When it falls, all that is left is darkness.
On the second day of the counterattack, the disciples who were investigating that day found traces of a monster.
And quickly arrange an ambush.
The location is three miles outside the defense line, but actually not far from the defense line.
into the night.
The ambush of the crowd was accurate.
The detection accuracy is indeed 70%.
But the ambush was successful.
But I completely underestimated the number of monsters.
There are more than 200 monsters, more than 30 of which are big monsters, and there are also four golden monsters.
The wilderness at night, captured only by flickering torches.
Facing these ferocious monsters
That night, including Master Taiwu and five elders, all rushed to the front line.
When we received the news at night, it said that twenty-four people were missing and seventeen were injured.
Other minor injuries are not included.
Those seventeen injured disciples would probably not be able to hold on for long due to their severe injuries.
The so-called disappearance basically means that they have already died in the bloody mouth of the monster.
It has been many years since the frontline defense of the Great Zhou Dynasty suffered such heavy casualties.
It takes decades and countless resources to train a warrior.
It only takes one night to lose a warrior pillar.
And there is a big problem.
Among the many casualties, there were not only disciples of the Yunyang Sect.
Many people from the seven sects that came to reinforce also participated in the ambush.
The Yunyang Sect's high-ranking officials, such as Master Taiwu, still need to think about how to explain to other sects.
Even if others come to help, you should be prepared for the possibility of injury or death.
But after all, he was someone else's disciple and died just like that.
The disciples brought by several sects are the elites of their respective sects.
The Yunyang Sect's front line, which was originally slightly stable at this moment, is now even more chaotic than at the beginning.
The confidence of a large number of disciples was shattered, and no matter how much they were persuaded, they wanted to escape from the front line.
The monster's brutality had frightened them out of their wits.
After arriving at the front line, Master Taiwu and the five elders immediately began to comfort their disciples and restore their confidence.
At the same time, relevant resources were quickly deployed to support the front line.
All the hall masters who were free in the sect also came to support.
The monsters will not stop attacking and raiding just because many people are injured on the front line.
There is a high possibility that monsters will still attack tonight.
If we don't pay attention to the garrison tonight, the entire defense line will be in disaster!
That night, the elders of Yunyang Sect even personally inspected the front line.
Regardless of whether it was a show or he really wanted to protect the safety of the front line, he at least stayed there for one night.
