Versatile Mage: Starting Contract Groudon

Chapter 220: Zhenbei Fortress City

…………

The team leader took Zhao Tingxi's student ID card and compared it to confirm Zhao Tingxi's identity: "So you are Zhao Tingxi, I have heard of you for a long time. The situation here is urgent, and we are also concerned about safety."

Zhao Tingxi waved his hand to show his understanding: "It doesn't matter. Where are Mo Fan and the others?"

"They are at the temporary command post. Come with me."

"it is good."

Soon, the team leader brought Zhao Tingxi to the temporary command post in Zhenbei Fortress City.

It was called a temporary command post, but in fact it was just located near a wall on the north city wall.

After arriving, Zhao Tingxi looked around and found that the view here was very good. He could see both the battlefield outside and the situation inside the city wall at a glance.

At this time, several people were in a meeting, including some of Zhao Tingxi's old acquaintances, Mo Fan, Zhao Manyan, Zhang Xiaohou and Lingling.

In addition to the four of them, Zhao Tingxi also met someone he had not expected, Zhan Kong!

"Zhan Kong? Why are you here, old man?"

"puff!!!"

Zhan Kong and the others had just finished discussing something, and while he was drinking water, he heard Zhao Tingxi's voice and choked on the water.

“Damn you, you bastard, who are you calling an old fool?” Zhan Kong knew who the person was without even turning around.

"Who's the old man?" Zhao Tingxi said directly: "By the way, why are you here? Logically speaking, shouldn't you be practicing in seclusion in the family?"

Zhan Kong said unhappily, "I'm not an ascetic monk who has to stay at home to practice in seclusion. I'll come out when I need to. What's it to you?"

"Who is this?" At this time, a woman in military uniform stood up and asked.

"He is Zhao Tingxi. I called him over to help." Mo Fan said.

"It turns out to be Zhao Tingxi. I've heard a lot about you. I'm the commander-in-chief here, Binwei." Binwei took the initiative to say, "He is Ye Hong."

"Hello." Ye Hong also stood up and greeted.

Obviously, they knew Zhao Tingxi.

"Hello." After greeting, Zhao Tingxi took the initiative to ask about the situation here: "Tell me, what is the situation here now?"

"Not very optimistic..." Lingling began to introduce what happened here to Zhao Tingxi.

To put it simply, some time ago, Mo Fan tracked down the people of the Black Church and eventually came here. He discovered that the Black Church was going to cause trouble here, and then Mo Fan infiltrated the interior of the Black Church.

At the same time, Zhao Tingxi and Lingling came to Zhenbei Fortress City as members of the prevention team to help Zhenbei Fortress City prevent the upcoming undead invasion. However, the situation here is far more complicated than expected, because the people of the Black Church not only colluded with the undead of the Sahara Undead Empire, but also used unknown means to let the wild beasts of the northern border invade here.

Every night from 8 pm to 6 pm the next day, this is the attack time of the undead. From 6 am to 6 pm, this is the attack time of the wild beasts of the northern border. Then there is no need to face their attacks for two hours in between, which is the time for rest and adjustment.

And now is the perfect time to rest and adjust.

"So, they are quite respectful and actually left some time for us." Zhao Tingxi shook his head: "What about the people from the Black Church? Did they catch any tongues?"

“The people of the Black Church have been dealt with.” Mo Fan said, “They launched a general attack two days ago, and the people of the Black Church watched from the sidelines. That was also the day that Boss Zhan Kong came here, so the people of the Black Church have been dealt with. There is also a red cardinal, Leng Jue, who has been dealt with by Boss Zhan Kong using the curse system. He is not dead, but he is no different from being dead.”

"I see." Zhao Tingxi nodded: "So, we just need to find a way to stop the northern wild beasts and the Sahara undead, right?"

Bin Wei nodded. "In theory, that's true. Zhenbei Fortress has an ancient city wall, so it's possible to defend here. The attack of the northern wild beasts has become weak, but the scale of the Sahara Undead is getting bigger and bigger, and it's getting harder and harder to defend."

"There has been no news of support from the rear. According to our estimation, if we don't find a way to deal with the Sahara Undead within a week, the Zhenbei Fortress City will probably fall."

Binwei's tone was quite heavy. It was obvious that Binwei was powerless in the face of the Sahara Undead and the Northern Border wild beasts' invasion methods, which were like a blunt knife cutting flesh.

This kind of invasion, launching an invasion at a fixed time every day and then withdrawing when the time is up, will cause great mental pressure on the people in Zhenbei Fortress City. They have to maintain high-intensity defense every day, and not everyone can withstand it.

"All undead are like this." Zhao Tingxi explained: "After you kill the wild beasts in the northern border during the day, if the spirits and residual souls on the battlefield and the corpses on the ground are not dealt with in time, they will be transformed into undead. Over time, the pressure on the undead will become greater and greater."

"I guess the two hours in between are not just for you to catch your breath, but because Sahara needs time to transform the spirits, residual souls and corpses of these northern wild beasts into undead spirits."

Bin Wei smiled bitterly and said, "We also know that there are too many spirits, residual spirits, and corpses of the wild beasts in the northern border. Even if we want to deal with them, we simply can't."

"Boom!!!!"

While everyone was talking, countless undead spirits crawled out from the ground outside the north city wall.

Zhao Tingxi took a quick look and found that the number of these undead was indeed huge. After a quick calculation, the number of undead here must be more than five digits.

Although these undead are all at the slave and general level, with a small number of commander-level undead mixed in, the number is still very large.

The Zhenbei Fortress City does not have the same defensive strength as the ancient capital, so the fact that it can withstand such a large number of undead for such a long time is enough to show their ability!
"All military mages, listen up! Prepare to fight!!!"

When Binwei saw the undead appear, his whole temperament changed, and he exuded a murderous aura from head to toe.

Zhao Tingxi also stood up and said, "Since you are here, let me see what the difference is between these so-called Sahara ghosts and the ghosts in China!"

"No!" Bin Wei stopped him, "There are too many undead. Let's divide the battlefield first, and then the mage can go down to fight. It's too dangerous to go down alone!"
