Mortal Mirror

Li Ergou inquired, "Sir, how is Situ Qianxing? And is there any new information from above, like a solution to deal with the meteorites?"

Hearing this, Bai Su's face became worried as she said, "Situ Qianxing has been in a coma. We originally wanted to send him back, but the current situation doesn't allow us to do so, so we can only give up.

We have no way to treat him for now and can only wait for more powerful experts to be sent down from above to make plans.

Recently, some major events have occurred. The meteorite near the capital has begun to change, with golden light emerging from within.

Some people have sensed huge energy fluctuations, and the energy is said to be very terrifying. Some suspect that there are extraordinary things inside the meteorite.

The only fortunate thing is that the demonic energy inside those meteorites has greatly reduced the demonization of wild animals. Only about 30% of the demonized beasts are actually transformed, about three out of ten.

As long as they are not demonized, those demonized animals will not be bloodthirsty or violent, and will not attack people. Many places have begun to counterattack to clear out the demonized animals.

Some special meteorites have also been temporarily sealed by super powerful experts, but unfortunately, those stones are incredibly hard, impossible to destroy, and extremely heavy, making it impossible to move them. This is the most troublesome thing."

Li Ergou frowned and said, "There are countless capable people in our court. Can't so many people deal with a stone? What about those sects? Can't they do anything either?"

Bai Su smiled bitterly and said, "The problem now is that the imperial court doesn't allow those sects to interfere with these stones at all. I've received some inside information that these meteorites are not simple, and the imperial court has sent more powerful experts to deal with those stones.

Once the matters above are settled, things will be easier for us here. As long as we go all out during this period and prevent those demonic beasts from attacking, we will succeed."

Hearing these words, Li Ergou was quite shocked, not expecting things to be like this.

In fact, that stone was also very important to him. With this meteorite, his cultivation could also increase rapidly.

If the stone is taken away after some time, he won't have such an opportunity to cultivate. It seems he needs to speed up his cultivation.

However, haste makes waste, and he might end up cultivating incorrectly and becoming possessed by a demon. It would be great if he could secretly hide that stone.

As soon as this idea came out, he was startled by himself.

He wondered when he had become so greedy and daring. Moreover, that thing was incredibly heavy. He tried to use the bronze mirror to take it away, but the bronze mirror didn't respond at all.

Oh well, he'll take it one step at a time.

As he was pondering, Bai Su told him to make some preparations in the next few days. The several adults of Yu City had discussed that they might start a counterattack in the next few days to clear out those demonic beasts.

Li Ergou didn't expect these people to be so anxious, meaning they were going to have a decisive battle.

The city wall of Yu City was a full four zhang high and two zhang wide.

At this moment, the city wall was bustling with activity, with many constables, soldiers, some cultivators from Yu City, and many domesticated animals that had been demonized but were still normal.

Two-meter-tall geese, one-person-tall chickens, ducks with wingspans of a zhang, and fat pigs the size of half a room were all brought to participate in the battle.

It must be said that these guys were quite fierce in battle. Most importantly, there were subsidies for these animals joining the battle; otherwise, who would bring them over? In the future, they would all be treasured.

As these domestic animals grew in size, their value also soared. The price of a demonized goose had already been炒 to hundreds of taels of gold, but even so, they were still hard to find because everyone was reluctant to sell such rare items and wanted to keep them as family heirlooms.

Below the city wall, huge demonic beasts were constantly rushing towards the city wall. Why? Of course, they were hungry. The city was emitting a fragrant human scent, and they were coming for the people.

When Li Ergou arrived on the city wall, he saw demonic beasts constantly climbing up the wall, but unfortunately, as soon as these guys came up, they would be surrounded and attacked by everyone, especially those domestic animals, who were extremely fierce.

The demonic beasts on the ground were easy to deal with, but the most difficult to deal with were the things coming from the sky.

Such as flying insects and birds, these guys flew directly over the city wall and headed towards the city, causing very serious damage to Yu City.

The best way to deal with these things was to take the initiative, find them, and kill them preemptively.

As he was thinking, he saw someone walking towards him. This person was tall and mighty, it was General Zhao. Li Ergou quickly walked over and said, "General Zhao, you've worked hard."

When General Zhao saw Li Ergou, he couldn't help but reveal a smile and said, "It's nothing. Although these demonic beasts are powerful, they are not as fierce as those barbarians. These days, I feel that the demonic energy has obviously weakened a lot.

These demonic beasts are not attacking as fiercely as before. If we persevere for a while, the higher-ups will think of a way to completely solve this matter.

As for you, what have you been doing these days? I haven't seen you. What have you been up to?"

Li Ergou just made up a reason and said, "Just busy. There are many things at the yamen. I'm here to take a look and then leave. General Zhao, please work hard here."

Zhao Wuji nodded slightly and said, "It's my duty. If you have the opportunity in the future, you can go to my Tianjian Pass. That is the real bloody battlefield."

Li Ergou couldn't imagine how powerful those barbarians were, but he still said, "Okay, if I have the opportunity, I will definitely go. General Zhao, don't pretend not to know me then."

After a few words of greeting, Li Ergou left, but before leaving, he still took out five first-generation eggs and one first-generation chicken. After all, these things are not available on the market now.

Since the meteorite incident, the production of first-generation eggs has sharply decreased and they have not been sold anymore. When Zhao Wuji saw Li Ergou's gift, he did not refuse and accepted it with a smile, praising Li Ergou in his heart for being a considerate person.

At night, beside the meteorite, Li Ergou came to the meteorite as promised. What he didn't expect was that today, countless demonic beasts were gathered beside the meteorite.

What was even more unexpected was that the tiger demon, the mantis leader, and the big eagle that was as black as ink were gathered together.

They seemed to have reached some kind of agreement. After gathering countless demonic beasts, they led the demonic beasts towards Yu City, and for a time, countless demonic beasts could be seen surging like a tide.

When Li Ergou saw this scene, he couldn't help but be surprised, thinking that these guys wouldn't be launching a general attack on Yu City, would they?

With this thought, he immediately wanted to leave here and rush to Yu City, but just at this moment, he felt the mirror in his arms heat up, and then he saw the meteorite once again begin to shine with golden light.

This sudden scene immediately made Li Ergou not know what to do.
