Chapter 257 [Gather the targets together]
The quality of the bells and drums is very good, and the sound is clear and distant. Although the drumsticks and bells have stopped, the sound seems to still echo in the mountains.
I don't know where they snatched the good stuff.
Originally according to Sang Ziping's idea, the defense here of Zhonggusi is still like thin paper to the two of them, they can directly kill them and clean up the monsters here.
Then the two knock it together seventeen times, and all the monsters can be gathered together.
But Fang Chang did not agree to this plan.
Because the position of the bell and drum division is too high and conspicuous, and when the monsters in the main cave are active outside, they often like to raise their heads to look at the big bell hanging under the shelf on the mountain.
Therefore, if this place is cleared, it will be too conspicuous and easy to be found.
Moreover, the terrain here is high and windy, the conditions are difficult, and shifts are changed frequently. In addition, the climate in Ant Mountain is dry, and there are few clouds and mist to cover it, so it is not easy to cover the bell and drum.
In addition, it will take a lot of time to gather the demon soldiers from each cave and come to the main cave as a whole team, and there are too many possible variables in the middle.
So they had to forge the order and follow the normal process.
Fortunately, everything went well.
Sang Ziping was a little worried about going back to his life, but Fang Chang comforted him:
"We just knocked a few more times. The demon king probably won't pursue it. After all, there are no shortage of foolish monsters in the mountains. It's normal to make mistakes. What's more-it can't beat us when it is pursued."
Hearing this, Sang Ziping laughed, and then the two of them took the token and walked back into the narrow hole.
They will return the token next, and bear the reprimand of the demon king by the way.
Sure enough, as Fang Chang expected, although the demon king was very angry at their behavior, but for the sake of his majesty, he still made mistakes.
But the demon king warned them:
"I clearly said to summon the big and small leaders, where are the ears of the two of you!"
"Fortunately, it's only normal at present. If you pass the wrong order during the war, then you have a hundred heads, and you don't have enough brains to forgive your sins! Go back and reflect on it, and don't do it again!"
Speaking of this, the demon king thought in his heart, these monsters outside are not as obedient and easy to use as the ant soldiers under him.
Although the worker ants and soldiers are not as smart as these monsters who rely on their own strength to open their spirits, they are very loyal and rarely make such big mistakes in the execution of orders.
Fang Chang and Sang Ziping bowed their bodies and retreated obediently.
...
As a result, as soon as they reached the main cave, before they could make a move, the steward of the cave hurried over: "You two, come here together!"
Fang Chang and Sang Ziping walked over immediately and asked:
"I don't know what to order?"
The steward replied very quickly: "Didn't you hear the bells and drums just now? That's because the demon king didn't know why. He wanted to call the soldiers from all over the place. The matter was urgent and he didn't have time to inform me."
"But no matter what, one more time, the army of leaders from all walks of life will arrive soon, and there are still many things to prepare."
"The two of you hurry up to get the lime, on the ground outside. You can draw a grid as usual in the back, and you need to let all the roads rest according to the marked line under your feet, so as not to break out of conflict."
"yes."
Fang Chang and Sang Ziping received the order to go to the warehouse in the cave to collect lime.
During the whole process, the karst cave at the back was in charge, busy like a spinning top, spinning non-stop, carefully preparing details that could be used everywhere, or used as a spare.
There is a little demon holding a **** and broom to clean up the weeds and sweep the open space outside.
Some brought large bundles of colorful flags, some carefully erected them on the edge of the open space, and some have already started to set up a high platform at the entrance of the cave, and the demon king will speak on it after a while.
...
The Wild Dog Demon is staying in Fengming Cave, resting in a corner where the mountain wind blows.
His time in Fengming Cave was almost the longest among the monsters in the cave.
But it still doesn't like Fengming Cave.
Because there is wind here all year round, there will be loud sounds according to the direction of the wind, which greatly affects his sensitive hearing and perception of the surrounding environment.
Just as the bell and drum in the main cave rang, the wild dog demon couldn't hear it very clearly.
Fortunately, the order to gather all the demon soldiers was too different from other orders. Therefore, after the wild dog demon heard the clear sound of the seven or eight bells and drums amidst the howling wind, he immediately said to his subordinates:
"The main cave is urgently preparing to gather everyone, we have to go there, and immediately call everyone up to form a team! We can't be the last one, otherwise our Fengming Cave will definitely become a joke."
"Yes, Deputy Cave Master."
Left and right left, but the deputy cave master, the wild dog demon, got up and was about to call the cave master Xiong. After all, Cave Master Xiong is the master of the cave, and I am just the backup commander of this cave.
It took a lot of effort to find all the monsters under him, and it took a lot of energy to make them stand in line.
This is the result of doubling the training, level and number of monsters after sufficient supplies.
Training is difficult...
The road up the mountain is very rugged, but fortunately it is difficult to lose your way.
After all, the tall main peak is just ahead, and the monsters who got lost during the march can roughly determine where they are going by just looking up.
Along the way, I saw many teams, each led by their own leaders.
Everyone took out almost all their hands, only a few monsters who were guarding the gate remained, and then marched towards the main peak in a mighty manner.
The platform in front of the main cave was cleaned very clean, and the grid was carefully painted with lime mortar.
Walking at the front of the team, the leaders each took their own demon army, followed the guidance of the monsters in the main cave at the entrance, and stood in the corresponding grid.
The leaders were warned to forcefully restrain their subordinates, not to leave the grid under their feet, and even the little monsters had to stand in place and control the distance from the sideline.
The angle of the sun in the sky, as time goes by, rotates a few points towards the west.
The monsters from all walks of life arrived soon, and none of them were missing.
After waiting for a while, as the figure of the demon king appeared at the entrance of the main cave and walked towards the newly erected platform, all the monsters in the venue fell silent and stopped making noise.
"Bang bang bang—"
Following the figure of the demon king, he stood still behind the table on the stage, and there were several pistol explosions from the audience, spraying out a large puff of thick smoke.
This is a new gadget in recent decades, the principle is similar to firecrackers.
It was the loot captured by the officers and soldiers when the monsters were robbing everywhere under the mountain. Although it was not as easy to use as a knife and gun, they still used it.
This sound is just used for etiquette.
Piles and teams of soldier ants and worker ants also came around and formed a circle around the field. This power made the lords, cave masters and little demons in the field feel awe from the bottom of their hearts.
The demon king stood on the stage, facing the attention of thousands of monsters below, counting loudly.
Thank you Little Carrot 005 for your reward.
