<strong>Trantor: </strong>As Studios <strong>Editor: </strong>As Studios
In this few years’ time, the Northern Mountain Vige had experienced a great change. As a proper school was established and the introduction of a wider road and a few renowned teachers from the Five Capitals of the Northern Lands, it was not surprising to see more peopleing to the vige.
However, the figures who appeared in front of them were definitely an exception.
They came from the Cang Ling Mountain and every one of them were wearing thick and bright ck armors.
Those were not the armors of Great Xia Dynasty.
Moreover, the numbers were extremely huge. They came like the ferocious tides and included some beastly figures.
“Tr... Troop?!” Thedy was not well-educated. Apart from knowing that these people were not the soldiers of the Great Xia Dynasty, she had difficulties trying to figure out who they were.
“Is it Brother Zhengzhi who came back from his battle?” Little Radish’s eyes lit up with curiosity and excitement when he heard the word “troop”.
“No, run, Little Radish. They are enemies... enemies!”
“Enemies?” Little Radish was clearly confused. After all, in his memory, how would there be enemies in the Northern Mountain Vige?
Who are the enemies?
What are they here for?
The term “enemy” was evidently foreign to a five-year-old boy who grew up in the vige. It was so foreign that he could not understand what was the meaning behind it.
However, thedy did not give Little Radish any time to think. She carried Little Radish and sprang into the vige.
“Vige Chief, Vige Chief... there is... a troop!”
“Troop?!”
“What troop?”
“The Northern Mountain Vige had been sealed. Isn’t Zhengzhi Prince Cang? How will there be... Ah! It is really a troop, hurry, Vige Chief... A troop is approaching!”
After hearing thedy’s words, the vigers of the Northern Mountain Vige came out of their houses. The silence was broken very quickly.
It had been long since there was amotion in the Northern Mountain Vige. Vige Chief Zhang Yangping, who was ready to eat his dinner, also heard themotion.
“There is a troop?” Vige Chief Zhang Yangping sticked his head out of the window. His old face was covered with all types of wrinkles.
However, aspared to the shock on his face, the wrinkles meant nothing.
Plonk! The pot in Vige Chief Zhang Pingyang’s hand fell onto the ground, spilling the hot dishes. However, that was clearly not important anymore.
“Hurry, gather. Everyone, gather!”
...
Roar! A loud beastly roar broke the peacefulness in the vige. Meanwhile, a beast covered in thick green scales appeared at the entrance of the vige.
There was a figure who was shrouded by a ck cloak sitting at the back of this beast. Although one could not see his face, one could sense the chilling aura exuded by him.
“Vice Domain Chief, they seemed to have discovered our whereabouts?” A figure who was wearing ck armor appeared at the back of the beast with a face of respect.
What made it special was a Demon Eye on the forehead of this figure.
Blue Demon Eye!
“Hmm, I can see it with my eyes.” The figure who was addressed as the Vice Domain Chief nodded and did not look surprised.
“Please give yourmands, how should we deal with this group of vigers?”
“What do you think?” The Vice Domain Chief asked.
“Kill!” Said a cold voice.
“Dumbass, how do we get rid of the blood stains after we kill them? For a vige with hundred over people, It takes more than ten days for the smell of blood to diffuse away. Our goal is to capture the Golden Scale City of the Northern Lands and build a barn to provide supplies for the future troops. If we spend too much time here, our traces would be exposed if anyonees.”
“You are right, sir. However, if we leave just like that, the vigers would still spread the news and it would be even more disadvantageous for us...”
“Of course I know that. However, Sir Demon Lord had specially instructed us to try our best to avoid being seen and avoid killing others. If we did not have three troops for this operation, I would not have taken the risk and left the mountain before sunset. Sigh... In order toplete our task before the other two troops, I have indeed overlooked the vige below the mountain.”
“Would Sir Demon Lord me us for merely one vige?”
“Of course Sir Demon Lord would not me me for one vige. However, I have heard that this order was given to Sir Demon Lord by ‘Young Lord’ through the letters. Do you want me to go against Young Lord’s orders?” The Vice Domain Chief had a look of anger on his face.
“This... I understand what Sir is concerned about. However, since the past, those who had made aplishments were never concerned with minute details. In the open, we cannot possibly follow all the orders. Moreover, Sir Demon Lord told us to avoid too much killing, but in this situation, we have no choice. Unless, we retreat because of this?”
“Nonsense, we will never retreat!”
“Sir, please calm down. We are in a dilemma currently since we need to obey the orders of Young Lord and Sir Demon Lord as well as not waste too much time here. I... I... Hold on, I have an idea! I have an idea to prevent us from getting into trouble with Sir Demon Lord and Young Lord.”
“Oh? What idea?”
“Burying them alive!”
“Burying them alive? It is indeed simple and would not leave behind traces or smell of blood. However, how do we prevent ourselves from getting into trouble by Sir Demon Lord and Young Lord?”
“Since we are burying them alive, then it would be ssified as an ident instead of a murder...”
“ident? You mean?”
“Sir, think about this. During this period of change, there are a lot of strange natural phenomenons. At this moment, a lightning struck the hill behind the vige andrge rocks rolled down the hill. With weak bodies, the vigers were unable to defend and the vige was destroyed by the rocks. What do you think, Sir?”
“Hahaha...” Hearing this, the Vice Domain Chiefughed. With an extremely chilling gaze, he said, “What are you waiting for?”
“I will do it now!”
“Hmm, the lightning marks on the hill must be made realistic. There must be absolutely no loopholes, understand?”
“Understood!”
...
At the square of the Northern Mountain Vige, Vige Chief Zhang Yangping looked extremely worried. Besides him, the vigers who were carrying all types of weapons and standing behind him also had their eyes widened.
Aspared to the past, the modern Northern Mountain Vige no longer used lousy weapons like forks, wooden sticks and choppers. Instead, they have adopted modern guns, knife and swords.
However, that does not mean they were able to fight with the powerful Demon troops.
“Demon... Demon Race?!”
“It’s the Demon troops, how is this possible? How would they appear in the Northern Mountain Vige, how did they get down from the Cang Ling Mountain?!”
“What is that? Why is there a weird creature beside the Demon soldiers? Could it be a beast? A beast that was more powerful than the Blue Fire Wolf...”
The voices of the vigers echoed through the air. Everyone’s eyes were filled with fear. Having lived in the vige since they were young, they had never seen such powerful Demon troops and beasts.
“Houde, it is the Demon troops. Zheng’er said before that they have Demon Eyes on their foreheads. What... What should we do?” Qin Xuelian grabbed Fang Houde’s arm. Her wrinkled face looked slightly pale but she did not escape right away.
“Don’t be scared... I am here, I...” Fang Houde was also rather pale. As a simple viger, his capability was limited.
Facing the enormous Demon troops, although he wanted to say “I will protect you”, he could not say it out.
It was not fear but rather hopelessness.
“Stand right there!” At this moment, a voice was heard. Following that, a figure who was wearing a robe and dressed like a teaching mister walked out from the crowd.
He looked like he was sixty years old. However, perhaps it was because of years of teaching, he still exuded a majestic aura.
It was none other than the current Dean of the College of Northern Mountain Vige, ‘Mister Mo Cheng’.
This was a respectful term and not his real name. However, he had lived with this respectful term and the vigers were used to addressing him with it.
“Mister Mo Cheng!”
“Dean Mo!”
“Teacher!”
After Mister Mo Cheng stood out from the crowd, all the vigers, including Vige Chief Zhang Yangping, looked extremely nervous. After all, it was the Demon troops that they are confronting.
“Attack!” The Vice Domain Chief of the Demon troopsmanded the instant he saw Mister Mo Cheng stand out. He did not even give the vigers a chance to speak.
After all, to the Vice Domain Chief of the Demon troops, any conversation is a waste of their time.
“You... What exactly do you want? This is the Northern Mountain Vige, the territory of the Great Xia. How dare you demon race invade our space?” Mister Mo Cheng, who was slightly shocked, began scolding loudly when he saw one demon soldier charging towards them.
However, his questions were not replied.
ng! The Demon soldiers drew their swords and ran towards Mister Mo Cheng. Meanwhile, a beam of light shed past.
However, what was surprising was...
The beam of light stopped at a distance less than an inch in front of Mister Mo Cheng’s throat. Mister Mo Cheng had blocked it with two of his fingers.
On each of the two fingers of Mister Mo Cheng, there were ck metal rings that were glistening with radiance.
“Hmm?” The demon soldier saw this scene and looked astonished. Withdrawing his sword, he gave Mister Mo Cheng a kick.
However, what surprised him again was that not only did his sword remain stuck at that position, he also experienced a powerful resistance force before he managed to kick Mister Mo Cheng.
Then, a forcended on his shoulder.
Boom!
The demon soldier was sent flying. He crashed onto the ground and his thick ck armor was broken, leaving traces of blood.
“As the Dean of the College of the Northern Mountain Vige, I would not let you, the Demon soldiers hurt us. If you retreat now, I...”
“So there are really nerds amongst humankind. He purposely showed mercy when there was a chance to kill, why should we keep him alive?” The Vice Domain Chief smiled as he nced at the demon soldier on the ground.
Then, he moved.
He turned into a stream of light and reached the front of Mister Mo Cheng. Meanwhile, a dot of light shed across Mister Mo Cheng’s forehead.
It vanished in a second.
It was so fast that Mister Mo Cheng did not have a chance to dodge.
“You...” Mister Mo Cheng widened his eyes and a drop of blood trickled down his forehead. He stared in disbelief at the figure in front of him.
Soon, the disbelief became fear, extreme fear.
That was because the figure who was shrouded by the cloak had removed his hood, showing an extremely cold face as the killer aura filled the air.
Most importantly, there was a blood-red Demon Eye on the forehead of the figure.
“We do not have much time. Finish them in 15 minutes!”
“Yes!” After themand of the Vice Domain Chief, a few of the Demon soldiers behind him stood out, each exuding an extremely chilling aura.
“You... What on earth do you want? Silver or rice, we have... we can give you whatever amounts you want...” Vige Chief Zhang Yangping looked at Mister Mo Cheng who had copsed to the ground, then at the trembling vigers behind him, his face as pale as white paper.
“Silver? Rice? Haha...” The Demon soldiersughed coldly and turned to Vige Chief Zhang Yangping. “You are the Vige Chief?”
“Yes yes yes, I am!”
“Hmm, very good. Now listen to mymands and check if every one is here. If there is anyone missing, don’t me me for killing all the vigers!”
“Everyone?”
“Yes, check now. Or else...”
“Are you trying to gather all of us together so you can kill us at one go?” At this moment, a clear voice was heard.
This voice was not loud and sounded extremely young. It was very clear and gave off a naive and pure feeling.
After hearing this voice, the Demon soldiers were slightly stunned. Then, they turned their gazes towards a figure that came out from the crowd.
It was a short boy with big ck eyes and a big head.
“Little Radish,e back quickly!”
“Quick, Little Radish...”
A few female vigers turnedpletely pale when they saw Little Radish. They were extremely shocked.
“Auntie, I am not afraid. I am a guy. Brother Zhengzhi said before that guys need to be courageous so we can protect the vige!” Little Radish shook his head and raised his chest. He did not look afraid at all.
