Li Guanqi lowered his head, looking at the bloody puddle he stepped on, with an ugly expression on his face.
quagmire?
Li Guanqi raised his right foot and looked at the piece of dark red minced meat sticking to the sole of his shoe, feeling more and more heavy.
No, not dirt...
What he stepped on was a lake of flesh and blood formed by squeezing and mixing human flesh and blood...
"Ugh……"
Li Guanqi looked around, finally raised his head, closed his eyes and sighed softly.
"Quack-quack-"
The setting sun was like blood, and many crows hovered above the dark red sky, making an ugly cry.
And under the sky, among the withered forests, on the ground around Li Guanqi, there were hundreds of broken corpses of tulip knights, and more than a dozen broken corpses of black-robed conjurers.
Just like that, they followed many broken armors and broken weapons, lying on the blood-soaked ground. Instead of resting in peace, they were being devoured by countless scavenging monsters.
The war has begun.

"But why?"
The dark red sunset gradually fell.
Li Guanqi stood in the woods full of corpses, looking at the hundreds of corpses in the lake of flesh and blood around him, with a surprised expression.
Hundreds of tulip knights.
More than a dozen black-robed conjurers.
It's impossible for all of them to be at the Jiugong level, and judging from the traces of the surrounding battlefields, it is estimated that this group of people didn't even reach the Sancai level, and it was just a small battlefield where the Liangyi level confronted each other.
but why?
Conventional war is a kind of war between countries for the sake of interests. Basically, some things cannot be discussed on the table, and then they are discussed on the battlefield.
The essence is to use a kind of "competition" to determine the distribution of benefits, so there will be no fight to the death, nor will the Jiugong level be sent, or even the gossip level.
And the all-out war is not for any benefit, but for the ultimate immortality, even the Nine Palaces will participate in the war!
If the new school of magicians is recognized as orthodox, it is equivalent to a split in the School of Magic.
Therefore, the war that the Tulip Empire united with the new school of magicians to challenge the magic school was not a conventional war, but an all-out war involving the Nine Palaces. The goal of the magic school was to completely destroy the new school of magic.
So, why would junior soldiers join the battlefield in this situation?
It's a completely pointless thing to do.
The all-out war with an extraordinary worldview compares the top-level combat power. As long as the winner is determined at the level of the Nine Palaces, the war will have a result.
In other words, no matter how the battlefield below the Jiugong level is fought, it will not have the slightest impact on the final battle situation. In this case, it is meaningless and completely unreasonable for junior soldiers to join the battlefield.
"So what happened……"
Li Guanqi frowned slightly.
Something must have happened between the Tulip Empire and the School of Sorcerers that he was not aware of that caused the junior soldiers to join the field.
"Wait, when Miss Saoirse comes over, you should be able to know the truth."
"I hope...she didn't die in battle."
Li Guanqi sighed softly.
Then he looked around, looking at the corpses all around him, with emotion in his eyes.
"Dead Tulip Knights, may the God of Light give you glory."
"Dead conjurers, may you still seek knowledge in the next life."
"Rest in peace, everyone."
"boom!"
After two simple prayers, Li Guanqi waved his hand and performed the earth-digging technique, turning the forest to several layers, and buried all the corpses more than ten meters underground, so that they would not be killed by the scavengers on the ground. Defile the corpse.
Li Guanqi, who is an oriental, always feels in his concept that even if he cannot return to his roots, he must at least rest in the soil.
"stop!"
Then, Li Guanqi tapped the ground with his toes, jumped to the top of the tree, leaned against the trunk, and waited quietly.
This wait is for several days in a row.
During this period, the sun and the moon change, the scorching sun rises and sets, and the bright moon appears and disappears.
Saoirse never came.
But Li Guanqi was not in a hurry, because when he pulled two stars in succession, the strength of his spiritual power directly increased by several levels, and at the same time, he also felt that his control over his spiritual power had become worse, and he was no longer so meticulous.
So he was waiting these few days, but he was also practicing to control his spiritual power.
but……
It was too long.
One day, two days, three days... ten days, twelve days!
The gentle-looking Jiugong-level female sorcerer who always tied her blond hair into a bun never came to Li Guanqi.
But she clearly said that she will always come within one to ten days.
died?
Li Guanqi didn't know.
However, since his control of spiritual power was not perfect, he chose to continue to practice in place, and at the same time, he could continue to wait in place.
Sometimes waiting doesn't work.
But there are also times when waiting pays off.
"Om-"
No. 15 days.
Li Guanqi was originally standing on the grass, practicing the perfect control of spiritual power, when a spatial crack suddenly appeared beside him.
"Ok?"
He looked overjoyed immediately.
But then my heart skipped a beat.
I saw a slender figure slowly emerge from the crack in the distorted colorful brilliance, and staggered out from it, with an extremely weak breath.
"Miss Saoirse?!"
Li Guanqi's complexion changed drastically, and he quickly reached out to support him.
"puff!"
The pale-faced Saoirse leaned against his arms, and before she could catch her breath for a few seconds, she suddenly spewed out a mouthful of purple-black poisonous blood, which sprayed directly on Li Guanqi's chest, causing white smoke to come out from the Heavenly God Armor on his body. "Zizi" sound.
"Good guy..."
Ares' voice sounded in Li Guanqi's mind, "It's a good thing she didn't spray her face, and it's also thanks to you, Master, wearing me, otherwise this mouthful of black blood would be enough to burn through your seven-star physique."
Ares unsealed the eighth layer and was able to completely resist the gossip-level attack. Only the nine-level attack could break his defense. White smoke came out.
With Li Guanqi's current physique, it would indeed be burnt through.
"Ok?"
Li Guanqi's complexion changed slightly.
This poisonous blood is so terrifying, but Saoirse is only a sorcerer, her body is extremely weak, how can she bear this poisonous blood remaining in her body?
"Spiritual power package..."
Li Guanqi put Saoirsa down and made her lie flat on the grass. After checking, she found that she had wrapped all the poisonous blood in her body with spiritual power, which prevented her body from being burned through by the poisonous blood.
But this is only a temporary solution, not a permanent cure.
Because the spiritual power will eventually be exhausted, if the poisonous blood is not dealt with, Saoirse will exhaust her spiritual power sooner or later, and then die—at least this physical body cannot be kept.
What about the soul?
No matter how badly a Jiugong-level magician is, his soul can still have an eighth-level soul. He can completely leave his body and survive for a long time in the form of a dead spirit.
"Miss Saoirse?!"
Li Guanqi shook her shoulders, but the other person's face was pale, his eyes were closed tightly, and fine sweat continued to ooze from his forehead. Although he seemed to be alive, he didn't respond to his shouts at all.
Unconscious?
Something is wrong with the soul too!
Li Guanqi gritted his teeth.
Sure enough, those who can poison the Jiugong class must be a double blow of body and soul!
"help me……"
Suddenly, Saoirse murmured softly, raising her bloody right hand tremblingly.
"what?"
Li Guanqi stretched out his hand to hold her soft little hand, leaned down, and listened carefully to the voice of the other party, "Miss Saoirse, how can I save you? Has the imperial capital fallen? I will send you back to the imperial capital to find Her Majesty the Queen now?"
"no no……"
Saoirse's face showed pain, and her voice became weaker and hoarse, "No, I can't go to the imperial capital, you, you...Mr. Li...you...you can save me...and...only...only you... Can... save..."
In the end, the seriously injured sorcerer completely fainted after her body trembled violently.
"what?"
Li Guanqi was surprised.
Can't go to the imperial capital?
Only he can save?
What is this saying?
"Something's wrong."
The voice of the magic knife suddenly sounded, revealing a deep solemnity, "Ares, shrink, don't protect this kid's body."
"What the hell?"
Ares was taken aback.
"Also, kid, slap this woman on the chest and make her spit another mouthful of blood onto you!"
The magic knife not only did not answer, but once again spoke surprisingly.
"why?"
Instantaneous also made a suspicious voice.
"It's too troublesome to explain, if you want her to live, do it quickly!"
The voice of the magic knife was full of impatience, "When I finish explaining from beginning to end, this bitch is already dead, do you want to listen to my lecture or save people?!"
"Mother, you have the same virtue as Master Shashen."
For a moment, he was at a loss for words, "I didn't even explain what I did."
"..."
Li Guanqi frowned slightly, but seeing Saoirse whose breath was getting weaker, he still said in a deep voice: "Aris, do as you want, shrink, don't protect my body."
"Yes."
Ares didn't raise any further objections, but obeyed, shrinking into a black dot, attached to Li Guanqi's left shoulder.
Since then, Li Guanqi has no other protection except for the close-fitting black singlet.
