936 The Appearance of the Foreign Races
“Hmph! We’ll deal with whatever comes our way. I’d like to see what kind of tricks the foreign races can come up with!”
Li Xiang took a deep breath and a cold look flashed across his eyes.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
The Mountain-chasing Whip lashed the ground, and the ripples on the ground became even more intense, quickly pushing Honeysuckle City forward.
After passing through the poisonous fog, there was no other obstruction.
Countless fierce beasts sensed the aura of the Divine City, the pulse of the earth, and the aura of the Vermillion Bird Army Group. They instinctively began to flee in all directions, avoiding the path of the Divine City’s migration.
Unknowingly, the sky had begun to turn dark.
The light began to dim, and darkness gradually enveloped the land.
The night was dark, and the moon was silently blocked by the clouds. In the wilderness, an invisible oppressive aura descended as if there was a terrifying monster lurking in the darkness.
The soldiers of the Vermillion Bird Army Group did not relax at all.
The night was the most dangerous time.
Many of the fierce beasts and monsters that had been dormant during the day let out heaven-shaking roars when night fell. Those roars carried the aura of the wilderness. The roars of beasts and the cries of birds interweaved, and one could hear the miserable cries of fierce beasts fighting each other. They could also see the ferocious birds fighting each other in the air.
The wilderness at night was ten times more dangerous than during the day.
Zhao Yun understood this very well, so he naturally wouldn’t relax. All the archers in the army had already loaded their bows and arrows. As long as there was any movement, they would immediately attack and react.
Scouts quickly scouted around.
This was only because the number of Golden-scaled Birds was too small. Otherwise, if they were to enter the army group, one or two of them would be enough to take on the responsibility of being a scout. They would look around from the sky to gather information.
“Report! There is a valley ahead. The valley is brightly lit, and foreign races have appeared.”
At this moment, a scout quickly reported.
“According to the information, that valley is called Stone Valley. It is the only way to Carp Lake. If we were to avoid the route, it would take even longer. It seems that the foreign races have long been prepared to fight us to the death here.”
When Zhao Yun heard this, a strange expression appeared on his face.
“Commander, the actions of the foreign races are abnormal.”
“No matter what, since the foreign races have set up their trap, there’s no reason for us not to fight,” said Zhao Yun.
The army group continued to advance. Soon, they arrived at Stone Valley.
The Stone Valley was extremely huge. Although it was called a valley, it was a vast plain. There were rocks everywhere, and it was extremely messy. Moreover, no plants were growing. It looked like a barren land, and it was extremely desolate.
At this moment, a bonfire was lit in Stone Valley.
Piles of them lit up the surroundings.
Rumble!
The ground shook violently.
Honeysuckle City had appeared in front of Stone Valley.
The Vermillion Bird Army group had already appeared in front of the valley and was waiting in the array.
“Come out! Since you’ve lit a bonfire here and are blocking the road. Don’t hide then. Let me see how you dare to stop the Kingdom of Dawn from expanding.”
Zhao Yun stood in front of the army and looked at the Stone Valley as he shouted.
“Expanding? You guys should take a look at what this is first.”
At this moment, a cold voice sounded.
Soon after, a large number of foreign races appeared, followed by sallow and emaciated civilians. These civilians were all refugees, and there was not even a single ounce of flesh on them.
There were old people, children, pregnant women, and young people inside.
All of them had dull eyes. They had no hope at all. There was only numbness and despair.
These were all Human race, the humans. But at this moment, they were all sent onto huge rocks, kneeling on them like prisoners waiting to be slaughtered. A large group of foreign races could be seen lying in ambush on the left and right. Some of them were holding bows and arrows, while others were holding spears. The lives of these humans were within their control.
As long as they wanted, they could easily slaughter them all.
“It’s the Human civilians. It’s our Human race.”
“D*mn it! Why did the foreign races send the humans here?”
“How tragic! All of them are sallow and emaciated. They must have gone through countless hardships. They’re treated as slaves and prisoners. They’re even more miserable than refugees.”
“There are pregnant women and children. How do they survive? How is this possible? What are these foreign races planning to do? What are they trying to do?”
The appearance of over 10,000 civilians immediately caused an uproar among the civilians in Honeysuckle City. They let out waves of exclamations, and their faces were filled with intense anger.
They were living human beings, their compatriots, brothers, and sisters. But now, they were being treated as cannon fodder by the foreign races and were forced to kneel in front of them.
The despair and numbness that they exuded were something that many civilians could empathize with.
They were also refugees before they joined the Dawn Dynasty. Although they did not fall into the hands of the foreign races, their lives were not good either. It was common for them to have inconsistent meals. It was not like they had never experienced hunger for a few days. It was an extravagant hope to fill their stomachs. Only after entering the Kingdom of Dawn did they start living a normal life. Here, they could eat as much as they wanted. There was no shortage of food.
They could even eat fierce beasts’ meat and fresh vegetables.
With the rich nutrition, all of them recovered in the shortest time possible, and their bodies were no longer as thin as before. That was how they looked like a person. However, that experience was carved into their bones. It would always appear in their dreams at night.
Now that they saw these Human civilians in front of them, they immediately empathy them. The anger in their hearts surged and soared on the spot. Compared to them, the Human civilians who had fallen into the hands of the foreign races had suffered more. It was simply tragic.
Moreover, when they saw those babies and pregnant women, many people could not imagine how they survived.
In this era, it was not a lucky thing to be pregnant and give birth to a baby in this chaotic world. It was not a happy thing either. It was even a tragic thing. Such a world and environment were more terrifying than hell for pregnant women and babies.
