Age of Calamity in Swallowed Star

Chapter 107: Southwest Commander-in-Chief, Lin Ye!

The news of Lin Ye's departure was immediately sent to the Southwest Fortress.

Inside the command headquarters office.

"He's finally here, that's fantastic!"

Upon receiving the news, the commander's expression brightened, and he stood up excitedly.

"With Bo Xishan and his two men from the Jingji Garrison, Huang Shaoying and his four men, and Wu Zhinan from the Jiangnan Fortress, there is now hope for the Southwest Fortress!"

His slightly trembling body and stubble revealed the excitement of this important figure in the Southwest.

However, Han Buyi's expression quickly darkened.

He looked down at his desk, his expression becoming solemn again.

Inside the blue folder on his left were two urgent requests for help from the Lijiang Fortress and the Anning Fortress, which had been there for a full twenty minutes.

And on Han Buyi's right were several casualty reports from shelters and small fortresses that had been captured by the beast tide.

He didn't look at the casualty reports, what needed to be done now was to minimize casualties and defend the fortress.

"Xiao Li, what's the situation with Chief of Staff Jiang Longtan?"

"Reporting to the commander, the Chief of Staff's Lijiang Fortress has mobilized all its combat power and is fully transferring the people from the outer shelters and human bases... but even so, the losses are very heavy."

The assistant bowed deeply: "Due to the sudden attack of those Lord-level monsters, our defense line was torn apart before we could resist, and the soldiers had to face countless rainforest monsters directly."

"The current number of soldiers and civilians sacrificed... has exceeded 150,000."

"Fortunately, the Chief of Staff has two strong martial artist teams under his command, and he personally took action, which barely stabilized the situation, but..."

Speaking of this, Assistant Xiao Li paused, his voice low: "But according to the news he sent, the scale of the beast tide around the Lijiang Fortress is still expanding."

"So far, the number of Lord-level monsters has exceeded ten."

"There are even some Lords leading their subordinates to bypass the Lijiang Fortress and continue towards the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain..."

"..." Sitting in the mahogany chair, Han Buyi pondered for a moment, took out a pen and wrote an order, signed and stamped it, and handed it to the assistant: "Send this order to Wu Di, and let him transfer elites from the Yuxi Fortress to support Li Huwei's Anning Fortress."

"As for the Yuxi Fortress and the surrounding shelters... enter a state of first-level combat readiness!!"

"Yes!" The assistant respectfully took the document.

"That's the second thing..." Han Buyi narrowed his eyes slightly: "There's also the first thing!"

"Please speak." The assistant remained respectful.

"Contact God of War Lin Ye for me, and ask him to go to Lijiang Fortress immediately to support the Chief of Staff in repelling the beast tide, and if there is an opportunity, investigate the reason why the monsters are concentrated on the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and see what is attracting them?"

"Understood!"

Hearing this, the assistant breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, the figure of that young peak God of War could not help but appear in his mind.

Since the evening of the awarding ceremony, Lin Ye directly ranked as the world's number one God of War with his terrifying record.

His terrifying mental power directly made the three personal guards admit defeat in person.

The world was shocked by his punch that sent the high-level God of War beast known for its brute force flying.

Moreover, in addition to mental power, he is also a powerful peak God of War.

The battle with Hong, which was comparable, directly pushed his reputation to its peak.

Naturally, Lin Ye has also become the Dinghaishenzhen (lit. Sea-Pacifying Divine Needle, fig. pillar of strength) in the hearts of all martial artists in Great Xia.

Speaking of Lin Ye, Han Buyi and the assistant smiled at each other.

The dullness of the office was instantly swept away.

"Also, what's the situation at the Jiehe Fortress?"

Han Buyi stared at his assistant and asked, "Gods of War Wu Zhinan and Huang Shaoying have already joined forces with Bo Xishan, right!"

"Reporting to the commander, the seven Gods of War, including Huang Shaoying, joined forces ten minutes ago and are now clearing the beast tide on the front of the Jiehe Fortress."

"That's good!" Han Buyi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Tell them to take this opportunity to visit the Winged Serpent Forbidden Land north of the Jiehe Fortress, and as much as possible, eliminate the remaining enemies while ensuring their own safety, and then quickly support the Lijiang Fortress."

Seeming to have thought of the direction of the beast tide, Han Buyi's expression was serious, and he said solemnly, word by word: "I can foresee that there will be an unprecedented hard battle to be fought at the Lijiang Fortress!"

"Understood!"

The assistant nodded heavily first, thought for a while, and said, "But commander... the combat power of the four Gods of War Huang Shaoying is a little different."

"A little strange, what do you mean?" Han Buyi frowned slightly and asked.

"It's not that their strength is not enough, but their strength is too terrifying!"

"Explain in detail!"

"It's just that the power they unleash in the face of the beast tide is completely unlike that of a medium-level God of War or a beginner-level God of War..."

After a pause, the assistant continued: "More like... the strength of a high-level God of War!"

"High-level... God of War?"

Leaning on the back of the chair, Han Buyi closed his eyes slightly and pondered quietly.

"The recovery of City 042... the Spirit of Vegetation... the high-level God of War..."

As if he had suddenly figured out the key point, he sat up abruptly, his voice like thunder: "The four of Huang Shaoying must have taken the Spirit of Vegetation, so their strength has improved so much in a short time!"

"Spirit of Vegetation... Spirit of Vegetation!!"

Han Buyi murmured in a deep voice, with a trace of gleam flashing in his eyes, and then disappearing.

The Southwest region has a special geographical location, and its climate is basically subtropical and tropical monsoon climate.

Not only is the scenery beautiful, but the number of its flora and fauna species is the highest in the entire Great Xia, and it is known as the "Kingdom of Animals and Plants".

Among them, even he cannot estimate the number of the Spirit of Vegetation.

But he can guess that these tropical rainforests will definitely have great gains.

It's just a pity that the current Southwest Fortress is barely able to defend against the beast tide, let alone send a strong martial artist team to explore the rainforest.

He has a treasure mountain but cannot use it.

This makes Han Buyi feel very uncomfortable and anxious.

"Why not take this opportunity... to explore those tropical rainforests, even if you only find a few Spirits of Vegetation... you can add a few more high-level Gods of War to my Southwest Fortress!"

An idea sprouted in his mind, and even Han Buyi couldn't help but his eyes shine.

"Ding Ding Ding!!!"

Just as the Southwest commander was excited, a phone call came from the headquarters of the Jingji Garrison.

After hanging up the phone, Han Buyi's expression became even more excited.

Ma Qingfeng only issued two orders on the phone.

"First, briefly report the current situation and difficulties of the entire Southwest Fortress to Lin Ye, and Han Buyi and his staff and intelligence personnel will provide real-time feedback for Lin Ye's decision-making."

"Second, Lin Ye will serve as the commander-in-chief of this battle in the Southwest Fortress. He can freely mobilize the God of War-level martial artists and defensive forces in the Southwest region to deal with possible outbreaks of beast tides."

"..."

Without questioning Ma Qingfeng's decision, Han Buyi resolutely carried it out.

Soon, this order was issued to major fortresses and shelters.

Upon receiving this order, all fortress leaders were first stunned, and then couldn't help but ecstatic.
