Chapter 248 Hidden Skill and Fame
“Hiss——”
A harsh scream sounded.
Twelve thick beams of light of various colors gradually moved away, and the remaining demons also retreated into the distance under the cover of other weaker lights.
The demons retreated.
Zhennanguan was not pursued. The commanders gathered their troops and began to clean up the mess.
Although the demons were repelled, the price paid was extremely heavy.
All the soldiers were covered in blood, almost all the melee professions were injured, and some were even disabled. Only mages, priests and summoners were relatively better off.
Long Haochen, Yang Wenzhao and Duanyi led their respective demon hunting groups to gather together.
Everyone looked at Ye Tian with strange eyes.
After entering the battlefield, the four demon hunting groups are not far apart, so the performance of the Level 21 Demon Hunting Group will be fully visible.
If we look at the strength shown by the other members, they were surprised and at the same time confident that they could catch up.
Then Ye Tian charged alone, first beheading several seventh-level demons, and then killing the eighth-level moon demon with the power of thunder, which made everyone feel numb.
It’s too exaggerated.
Obviously they are members of the same demon hunting group, but now the gap is so huge. Just thinking about this makes people weak.
"Brother Ye, there are not many people I admire in my life, but you are definitely one of them!"
Yang Wenzhao said calmly.
He is now completely surrendered.
Hearing this, Ye Tian smiled and shook his head, "I'm not as exaggerated as you said. Compared to me, the thousands of soldiers present are more worthy of admiration."
There is no strong strength, and it is still at a disadvantage.
Isn't it even more admirable to know that he is likely to die, but still fights to the death?
Whether it was in his previous life or this life, Ye Tian had never really joined the army, so naturally he could not understand that feeling.
He was not sure whether he would be able to behave the same way when faced with the same situation.
But this does not prevent him from admiring these ordinary and great people!
"Okay, we shouldn't be needed here. Let's go down and rest first!"
Ye Tian left a word and took the lead in leading his companions towards the rear.
Although the war was tragic, the result was at least not too bad.
The Temple Alliance won this war, even if it was a tragic victory, at least it did successfully repel the demons.
At least the Zhennang Pass was guarded and the demons were not allowed to break through this line of defense and endanger the ordinary civilians living behind the Zhennang Pass.
So no matter how big the loss is, it is still worth it!
For Zhennanguan, this time cannot even be called a war, but rather a disaster.
The power mobilized by the demons can be said to be unprecedentedly powerful. There are twelve demon gods and many high-level demons, who are determined not to give up until Zhennan Pass is taken.
In this case, being able to defend Zhennanguan is already a blessing among misfortunes.
However, although the demons have retreated, they still have many troubles to solve.
Zhennanguan is now in ruins.
Many buildings were damaged by the demon army, and the fire was quite large. This required the defenders to allocate some manpower to put out the fire while rescuing the wounded.
In the end, there was not enough manpower, so the demon hunting group who had not rested for long was called in to help.
Even in the end, even civilians joined the team to clean up the battlefield.
It took three days to complete the follow-up of the war.
Perhaps due to the heavy losses, the demons did not come to harass them during this period, and not even a trace of the scouts was found.
This also gave everyone a sigh of relief.
The reinforcements from the Demon Hunting Group and the Six Temples did not leave in a hurry, but stayed at Zhennanguan to rest temporarily.
They will not leave again until the Holy City sends the rest of the troops to replenish their strength. This is also to prevent the demon clan from taking advantage of Zhennanguan's empty troops to suddenly attack again.
Until the fourth day.
All the demon hunting groups that came to support were summoned by the Zhennanguan Military Headquarters.
Ye Tian's general-level Demon Hunting Group No. 21 received a great award, and the Zhennanguan military awarded him 50,000 yuan for meritorious service at one time.
Other demon hunting groups also received corresponding merit rewards, but compared to them, they were much less.
In addition, there are also personal rewards based on Ye Tian.
Because his strong attack not only greatly relieved the defensive pressure on the ground battlefield, but also directly blocked the demon attack.
After that, he participated in the aerial battlefield and annihilated all the eighth-level demons in one fell swoop.
From some perspectives, Ye Tian can be said to have greatly influenced the direction of this war.
Although emergency war missions are mandatory and you have to participate, as long as you perform well in the mission, you will receive much more meritorious rewards than other missions.
However, due to the confidentiality of his identity, Ye Tian did not show up in person. Instead, the paladin captain Han Qian distributed the rewards on his behalf.
This time, the No. 21 general-level demon hunting group has had a great harvest.
The merits increased by nearly 300,000 again. This does not include the income from the corpses of the demons, otherwise there would be more.
In addition, Eternal Melody also felt good, and its soul energy was replenished again. Now it is not a problem even if the space channel is opened several times in a short period of time.
After several days of rest, everyone recovered one after another.
The impact of the war has completely disappeared.
"Captain, when will we return to the Holy City?"
Bai Xiaomo asked softly.
The war is over, and there is no need for them to stay here.
Hearing this, others also looked over in time.
Ye Tian chuckled lightly, "Don't worry, we don't have to be in such a hurry to go back for the time being."
After spending so long together, all the girls present knew Ye Tian's character well.
Since you say this, there must be a reason.
"Is it possible that something else will happen at Zhennanguan?"
Li Xin made a bold guess.
Ye Tian smiled and nodded, "Sister Xin's guess is right. There is indeed one more thing later, and it is a great good thing for us."
"What a good thing. ?”
The girls suddenly became interested.
With Ye Tian's character, the good things he can say are definitely extraordinary.
“It won’t improve our strength, right?” Wang Yuanyuan guessed casually.
"Sister Yuan Yuan guessed it right. It can indeed improve our strength. To be precise, there is an opportunity for everyone to obtain the spiritual furnace."
"Spiritual furnace?!"
As soon as these words came out, all the girls present looked surprised, even Cai'er's eyes flashed slightly.
That's a spiritual furnace!
In addition to one's own strength, there are a few treasures that can increase the upper limit of a professional's combat power.
In today's team, only Ye Tian, Cai'er and Li Xin have spiritual furnaces.
Among them, Li Xin's spiritual furnace was given by Ye Tian, which shows how precious the spiritual furnace is.
