Chapter 255 Village outside the city(1/2)
Inside the Demon Slaying Department, thousands of people have gathered in the wide square at this moment.
Most of them are members of the Demon Slayer Department, and the remaining half are people sent by other departments to support them.
Among the crowd, the most noteworthy ones are the three leaders.
One man and two women, seemingly ordinary in appearance, but they have an inexplicable attraction that makes people feel good and admire them.
Among the five divisions of Jin Yiwei, only the members of the Demon Slaying Division are divided into teams.
Ten-man squad, hundred-man squadron, thousand-man brigade, and above that, the level of deputy minister and minister.
Of course, what we are talking about here is the city and county levels, and the provinces and countries at higher levels must have higher-level establishments.
In Khe Sanh County, the Demon Slaying Department has two brigades, each led by a minister and a deputy minister.
However, this mission did not require them to take action.
The three people standing at the front of the crowd are actually the three squadron leaders.
These three are all reincarnations on the 30th level and above, and they belong to the elite category. Their strength is even more powerful than ordinary 30th-level reincarnations.
With them leading the team, coupled with numerous members of the Demon Slaying Department and support members from other departments, this mission cannot be said to be 100% sure, but it is only half done!
Just when Li Teng finished describing the outline of this mission, all the members participating in the mission were assembled.
A dozen members of the logistics department appeared at the front of the team. They each took out different parts from their own storage spaces and pieced them together to form a circular and hollow mechanical door.
"Turn on!"
A squadron leader ordered.
"yes!"
Five members of the logistics department stood on five sides of the circular mechanical door. After pressing the button at the same time, a violent energy spread from bottom to top to the entire door.
A faint blue energy covered the entire door, and then collapsed inward, forming a space door that led to an unknown place.
Two of the three squadron leaders nodded and walked in first. After a while, one of them came back and said: "Everything is safe, that's all."
The last squadron leader turned around to face everyone and shouted: "Everyone, come in with me."
After that, he was the first to rush in.
There were many members of the Demon-Slaying Club behind them, one after another.
Although there are more than a thousand people in this group, they are basically strong men above the tenth level. They are all smart and quick in action.
In less than three to five minutes, most of the journey was already gone.
Soon it was Zhou Ming's turn. Together with Li Teng and Han Cheng, he jumped up and arrived in front of the circular gate in two steps, and then walked in directly.
There is a feeling of jumping into the water and immediately emerging from the water.
The next moment, the scene in front of me completely changed.
With beautiful mountains and clear waters, chirping birds and fragrant flowers, this is a beautiful mountain forest, and where he is now is within this mountain forest.
Behind him, a similar circular gate stands.
A faint blue light flashed, and two or three figures rushed out closely behind him.
The three squadron leaders had long since disappeared. A dozen members of the Demon Slaying Department came out in front of Zhou Ming. They were carefully hiding and heading in different directions.
The smart watch on his hand vibrated. Zhou Ming raised his hand and saw that it was Jin Hua, Jin Yiwei's artificial intelligence, who issued a mission to him.
Although the three squadron leader-level figures in this mission led the team, they were not the commanders.
It's because the real commander is someone else.
It is this artificial intelligence, Jinhua.
"Our mission locations are different, but they should be similar."
Li Teng said: "Rush to the mission location immediately and be careful to stay hidden."
Han Cheng and Zhou Ming nodded.
In fact, as Li Teng said, as support, their mission is actually the same, which is to surround the entire mission location to prevent any missing monsters or monsters from escaping.
The mission locations of the three people are adjacent, but Li Teng is in the middle, and Zhou Ming and Han Cheng are on both sides.
On the other side of Zhou Ming was a member of the Logistics Department, who seemed to be a reincarnation of the twentieth level.
His mission location is halfway up the mountain.
So Zhou Ming jumped onto the tree, looked down from a high position, and directly activated the Emperor's Qi Watching Technique.
Looking from top to bottom, there is a village below, sandwiched between two mountains, and a small river flows down from the opposite mountain to the end of the mountain here.
The village is at the junction of this river.
In fact, Zhou Ming knew there was a problem when he saw this village.
In fact, in this world, settlements at the level of villages no longer exist.
When the monster appeared and wreaked havoc across the world, the villages with a small population and no defense were all wiped out by the monster.
Later, humans gained power from the Lord God and the world of reincarnation, and began to counterattack. They also directly built cities, worked step by step, and slowly advanced, and finally completely recaptured the land.
At that time, only the city was safe. Outside the city, small villages had no way to survive.
Even now, being outside the city means danger.
The significance of villages to human society lies in land and planting, which provide food for the entire society.
However, human beings have long since obtained various strange grains from the world of reincarnation and built various special production bases. It is normal for grains to be harvested twelve times a year.
As early as hundreds of years ago, the Ming Dynasty no longer needed the profession of farmers. All humans had to live in cities, and the state provided all food and clothing.
Of course, it’s just the most basic food and clothing. If you want to eat well, wear well, and live well, you still have to work after all.
Otherwise, no one can stand three meals of white flour steamed buns a day.
Under this situation, the 'village' has long since disappeared.
Now if you can still see villages in the wild, there are only two possibilities.
One is the rebellion against the Ming Dynasty.
Second, monsters, monsters!
These beings all have grudges against the Ming Dynasty, so naturally they cannot get close to the city, so they can only build villages outside the city.
But Daming was not a vegetarian. After understanding this situation, he could not just sit idly by and ignore it.
Every once in a while, the royal guards in the city will patrol outside the city. Once they find a village, they will definitely destroy it.
However, in the recent period, there have been frequent monster movements, and there has even been a direct war on the seaside. Although the storm of the war has not been able to reach the inland for the time being, the inland has also been deeply affected.
The night patrol conducted every night in Khe Sanh County is proof of the impact.
Under such circumstances, patrols outside the city were naturally neglected.
As a result, a village actually appeared outside the city!
The village looks quite peaceful, with a river flowing through it and two small bridges standing upright, connecting both sides of the village.
There are also figures walking around in the village, but these people generally have confused eyes and are confused, like walking zombies.
As soon as Zhou Ming took a look, he knew that there were monsters and monsters hidden in this village.
Because those rebellious people who resisted the Ming Dynasty were actually human beings.
Most of them don't understand this world at all and have just been deceived.
In that chaotic era, I don’t know how many people took the opportunity to cause chaos, and there were countless evil ways.
There are various existences claiming to be the reincarnation of gods and Buddhas, and there are not even one hundred thousand but also eighty thousand.
Gu Shen
Many people suffered mental breakdowns due to the tragic encounters with monsters. Once they were fooled by them, they simply believed them.
It is said that there is still an evil sect in the northern area. Everyone in the sect firmly believes that the monsters are the monsters released by the Ming Dynasty to bloodbath the world, and they are the saviors.
It is really difficult for people to understand when they are mentally retarded.
But no matter what kind of evil sect they are, they will never let their disciples be so confused and like zombies.
Only monsters and monsters would do this.
Their most common method is to kidnap people, use illusions to continuously hypnotize them, change their memories and thoughts, and finally make them willingly accept the devil's energy.
The village, including other environments, were specially built by them to cooperate with the illusion.
The reason why it is so troublesome is because the demons created in this way will be more loyal and have higher potential.
If it is a forced type, even if it is transformed into a demon, its soul will be incomplete, its wisdom will be lost, and its strength will be stagnant.
In the past, the monsters would not have gone to such trouble and would have just forcibly transformed them and served as cannon fodder.
But things are different now. Human beings are powerful. Demons, especially those in the interior, are still relatively rare and worth cultivating.
But don't think that the monsters are being gentle just because of the current situation.
To be continued...
