Chapter 237: Changes in the Castle (I)

Although I believe the other party will not kill him, looking at such a big fireball in front of him, it is absolutely fake to say that Luo Cheng is not panicked. Just passing by him is enough to drink a pot.

"Phoenix, no, Sister Lan, you think it's not good to be so good, it's better." Luo Cheng showed a flattering look on his face, a flattering smile, and he was a little stuttering when he spoke.

"You're just saying these words now. Don't you think it's too late? Take it."

However, the Phoenix did not give the other party a chance to finish his words, and a difficult look flashed in his eyes. It was also a very consuming task to control such a large fireball to hold but not fire.

With a gentle push of his hands, the fireball flew towards the opposite side.

After doing all this, the expression on Phoenix's face not only did not relax, but became more and more difficult. She just wanted to try the defense of this bone shield, and at most it was only a little selfish and punished the other party with a small amount of selfishness.

If she really just ignores her, the big fireball that has lost control will not cause any damage to the opponent.

Although she is a little willful and often has no forgiveness for her words, she is essentially a kind girl.

The people watching the battle cheered up and prepared to terminate the experiment at any time. Only Yang Fan looked a little heartless, but his face still had the same expression as he watched the show.

Because he knew that if the fireball really went towards the bone shield, it would only make Luo Cheng a little busy and would not cause too much damage to it, so he watched Phoenix act so willful.

Luo Cheng was not as confident as Yang Fan in himself, and the panicked expression on his face was not faked at all. Although after a brief fight with Mu Bai, he successfully enhanced his confidence in his heart, but when facing the big fireball that the phoenix played super-level, he was very panicked in his heart.

After all, after being in teamed with Phoenix for so long, everyone knew how strong the other party was. Before Lei Emperor joined in, Phoenix's firepower output was the highest in the team.

Of course, this is also like Yang Fan, as the captain, who needs to play guest roles from time to time, cover, defense, reconnaissance, etc., and never misses these tasks.

If Luo Cheng had never been confident that he could take this blow before awakening his superpowers, and although he was forced now, from the bottom of his heart, he still wanted to give it a try.

He placed his arms horizontally on his chest to protect several key positions on his body. All he had to do was wait for the arrival of the fireball.

He didn't wait too long at this moment.

Several meters away from the fireball, an amazing wave of heat came towards Luo Chengjuan.

At this time, Luo Chengcai discovered that the power contained in this big fireball was beyond his expectations. He even smelled the smell of burnt clothes or hair.

But at this moment, he had no way out, so he had to bite the bullet and go.

Unlike the fierce collision between Mu Bai's fist and the bone shield just now, the fireball and the bone shield only made a series of "squeaking" sounds.

The red fireball tried hard to turn the bone shield into ashes, but the latter was like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, pressing it tightly there without any sign of melting.

Depending on the situation, the two are evenly matched.

Everyone around had a lot of combat experience, so they naturally understood what the scene in front of them meant, and then they relieved their hearts that had been hanging.

"Hu——" Luo Cheng kept sucking in his mouth. His actual situation was far less than what he showed on his appearance. Even if the defense of the bone shield is strong, it still needs his psychic support.

Not only was Luo Cheng just promoted to the three-star demon hunter, he was already a little worse than the Phoenix who rescued the three-star demon hunter a few months ago. Moreover, his battle with Mu Bai just now consumed a lot of spiritual energy, and the gap between the two was even bigger.

The situation where the situation was evenly matched also gradually evolved into a phoenix that began to gain an overwhelming advantage as Luo Cheng retreated step by step.

"Okay, just try it here." Looking at Luo Cheng, who gradually turned pale and sweating profusely, Yang Fan's heart had reached a limit. If he held on forcing himself, it would not be of any benefit to his health.

With a raised hand, a light golden bead flew over Luo Cheng's head and instantly turned into a golden bell to protect him.

Seeing this scene, Phoenix seemed to have put down her heart. She softened her body and leaned against the wall next to her. Her chest was fluctuating violently. It was precisely because of her strong suppression that the big fireball did not reveal her violent side.

But as time goes by, the mental power consumed by trying to control the big fireball becomes larger and larger, and soon becomes a little overwhelmed. If no one intervenes, she can only withdraw the fireball while she can still control it, or change the direction to an empty corner and let it detonate.

When he saw the familiar light, Phoenix knew who intervened, and immediately cut off the connection with the fireball with a little lazily.

After no restraint, the big fireball showed its power. After touching the Golden Bell, the fireball suddenly melted and wrapped the Golden Bell.

The remaining heat wave spread around, but it forced everyone to take a few steps back.

Even the Phoenix leaning against the wall was greatly affected, and she realized that this time it seemed that she had really played too much. If it weren't for Yang Fan's intervention, it would be hard to say whether she could clean up the mess in the end.

After spitting out his tongue, the Phoenix lowered his head and did not dare to look up at Yang Fan, whose face gradually became gloomy.

When the flames dissipated, Yang Fan also put away the golden bell.

Luo Cheng, whose face turned red by the high temperature inside was steamed inside, also appeared. Although the magnetic field could block the flames, it could not withstand the conduction of the high temperature. Luo Cheng, who was protected in the golden bell, suffered a lot of pain.

"So hot, huh--" When he accidentally touched the surrounding soil that was roasted red, Luo Cheng suddenly let out a few strange screams, put them beside his mouth and blew his air, and kept swaying his arms.

Seeing the other person jumping and jumping, everyone's mouth couldn't help but smile.

"Ahem, Xiao Luo, your ability is really good. The Bone Shield has a very strong defense. In the future, your mt will become more competent." After the attention of others slightly changed, the Phoenix gradually became active.

After looking at the tragic situation of his body, he was all thanks to the little witch. What else could Luo Cheng say? He could only smile bitterly and swear in his heart that he would never offend this little ancestor in the future.

However, the other party's last sentence was obviously written to him, which could be seen from the unconcealed joyful expression on his face.

When everyone was free to sit together, they inevitably talked about the situation of this insect tide.

There is no doubt that the outbreak of insect tide this time is more violent than before. I believe that there are no small number of third-level insects, and I don’t know how much damage will be suffered by the major survivor camps on the surface.

When talking about this, everyone couldn't help but look sighing.

Among all, Mu Bai, Lei Di, Luo Cheng and Little Loli were all alone. The closest people may be in the team, so most of them were expressing their expressions on their faces, and there was not much sadness.

Although Yang Fan and Phoenix have people worthy of care in the earthly world, these people who have something to do with them either stay in the castle created by Yang Fan or in the capital protected by heavy troops.

Both places are relatively safe, and the chances of being breached by this insect tide are extremely small.

Even though I say that, I understand the truth.

but……

"Oh--" Phoenix's mood inevitably became a little depressed, and she was a little homesick.

"Don't worry, they will be fine. As soon as the matter is over, I will take you back to see your mother?" Yang Fan quickly noticed the emotional changes of the beauties beside him and comforted him in a low voice.

Meet the parents?

Does he want to...

Two red clouds suddenly rose on the phoenix's face, ashamed and happy, and her behavior was squinting, making her look even more charming...

The surface world, which had just experienced the third insect tide, became devastated again.

From the first outbreak of the insect tide to the present, the global population has dropped sharply by 60% to 70%. Billions of people have either died under the claws of insects or died of various famines and diseases.

Especially in some countries that do not have the habit of storing food in China, the losses suffered in this disaster were particularly huge.

So far, there has been no sign of recovery in social order, which has cut off the means of purchasing food from abroad.

If k ore is listed as the first strategic resource, then grain is ranked second, and it is not necessarily enough to eat in your own country, so how can you care about the life and death of other countries?

Because China suffered from the painful experience of shortage of food in the early days of its founding, perhaps because it was afraid of hunger, it has preserved the custom of storing grain for so many years. Not only did rural people like to store grain, but there were countless large and medium-sized grain warehouses built by the state.

It is said that it is a storing for three years to satisfy the national population. If it is now only one-third of the total population before, it can be managed for almost ten years. This is when no one is farming in the country during the period.

Well, even if this statement has a certain amount of moisture, coupled with the insect tide and human loss, even if only one-quarter of it is preserved, it will be enough for all the surviving Chinese people to eat for several years.

Of course, this is only theoretically stated, but it is very different in each place.

for example……

A castle in Luxi County.

Maybe it was just a big battle here. There were blood stains and flesh-and-blood parts left in many places on the walls of the castle. A strong fishy smell could be smelled from a distance.

Countless insect corpses fell outside the castle, many of which were flowing out of the body and the gravel soil on the ground, causing many people who were doing cleaning and transporting like ants to complain.

The tide of insects has been outbreak for many years. Although ordinary people who can survive to this day will no longer be as frightened as they were when they saw insects at first, it is still very rare to comment on insects with ferocious appearances like these people.

"I heard from several castle owners that the corpses of these insects are all good fertilizers. Just be gentle and don't waste it." A middle-aged man wearing a hard hat looked at the others with a look of distress on his face.

"Hey, I heard that the last time I harvested autumn grain, it was said that the yield per mu was tens of thousands of kilograms, and it was all fattened by the flesh and blood of these insects." The person who spoke was a middle-aged man with dark skin but full of energy, pointing and touching, as if he had seen it with his own eyes.

"That's right, I heard that the food in the castle was too much to put down, so I had to distribute it to the people in the castle according to their contributions. A family could get a few thousand kilograms!" This person had just joined the castle. When he said this, he couldn't help but lick his lips. It was obvious that he was hungry for a while before joining the castle. When he talked about the food in each household, his eyes were straightened.

Those who do similar jobs here are people who are about the same age, who are in their early forties and fifties. As for older people, they will arrange some easier jobs, while smaller people will join the security team or do short-term work in the castle, in order to earn more contributions.

Listening to these people blowing balloons there, the middle-aged man wearing a hard hat couldn't help but sneer. He was one of the earliest old men to join the castle, and he knew much more than these guys with half a bucket of water.

Take the yield of tens of thousands of kilograms per mu for example. The winter wheat planted last year has a good harvest this year, with a yield of about 1,500 kilograms per mu, which is nearly twice as high as usual years.

There is also a yield of 10,000 jin per mu, but only some miscellaneous grains are obtained, and not every piece of land has such a high yield.

As for each household mentioned later, he didn't know that he only knew that his neighbor next door had a lot of more food at home, but those foods were exchanged for contribution points and were still showing off in front of him.

He has always despised the short-sighted action of killing chickens and retrieving eggs like this. Why do you want so much food? It's enough to eat. He also wants to save more contributions to his precious daughter to get a chance to be promoted to a demon hunter!

"If my daughter becomes a demon hunter one day, standing at your doorstep, she will still envy you, Lao Zhang." Thinking of the happiness, the safety helmet couldn't help but open her big mouth and smiled gently.

"By the way, Brother Liu, you are the earliest one among us. Have you seen several castle lords with your own eyes? Which of them is the best?"

"Is it the Master Zhou Castle who has wind-type superpowers to kill people invisibly, or the Master Hu Castle who has the strongest defense, or the Master Guo Castle who has powerful fire-type superpowers, or the Master Wang Castle who is the messenger of the water system?"

They have heard too much about the rumors about the castle lords, but because they joined the castle too late, they have heard all of this from others, but they have never seen these castle lords themselves.

Who is the best?

Brother Liu couldn't help but see the scene of the man flying down the air in his mind. He couldn't help but shook his head with emotion and said, "No, you came too late and don't know a lot of things."

"Hehe, we know this. You don't need to remind us all the time, just tell us so that we can see it more." Everyone asked unwillingly.

There was no way to be haunted by others. Brother Liu finally had to surrender and said, "I believe you also know that among the few deputy castle lords, there is also a main castle lord. I dare say that even if it is placed in the whole province, that castle lord is the strongest. Thinking back then, the one who came into the provincial capital alone and killed was a river of blood."

"Oh, I always thought it was a legend, but I didn't expect it to be true."
