The City of Terror

 There were many ancient records were the Bi Fang was recorded.

Naturally, common people did not have a good impression of the Bi Fang as it was a monster that brought with it fire.

In short, the giant bird in front of Wei Xiao Bei now was similar to how the Bi Fang was described in books.

In the Classic of Mountain and Sea, it was said that the Bi Fang was a kind of bird with one leg with stripes of red. It had cyan feathers and a white mouth. It would call out its name when it cries and wherever it appeared, a disastrous blaze would follow.

The bird that had flown over here truly only had one leg, but the only thing different from the record was that its body was completely blue and there were no red stripes.

However, the red clouds around its body did make it look like it had red stripes.

Perhaps the person who had recorded the Bi Fan only saw a glimpse of it and thought that the red clouds around its body were red stripes.

However, whether the bird was a Bi Fang or not, its aura as it dived and soared left Wei Xiao Bei in awe. It was as if there was a volcano in front of him.

When he looked at the Han soldiers that were escorting him, their faces had been dripping with beads of sweat. It was clear that they felt heavy pressure.

However, Wei Xiao Bei was amazed at the Han soldiers.

Under such heavy pressure, a normal person would have already fainted, but these soldiers could still endure it with their strength. It was clear that they were at least 2-Star Creatures.

Then, Wei Xiao Bei looked at the barracks and saw thousands of large tents. He guessed that their force numbered in the tens of thousands.

These soldiers were only the simplest of grunts in the army.

According to their military system, five people made a squad. Two squads were a shi. Five shi were a team. Two teams were a station. Two stations were a Qu. Two Qu were a division. Five Qu were a battalion. Each battalion had a military officer or a lieutenant general in charge of it.

This battalion of two thousand soldiers was counted as a single force.

Being able to train soldiers here meant that there were at least two thousand soldiers. Zhao Yun’s forces should be much greater, as he was a lieutenant general.

However, it must be known that in the era of the three kingdoms, the Shu Han Dynasty had Liu Bei who had called upon Zhu Ge Liang and Zhao Yun. After taking Chengdu, Zhao Yun had been promoted to the general of the assisting army. This rank was a rank that could command tens of thousands.

After Liu Bei’s death, Zhao Yun had risen in ranks from the Central Protector of the Army to General Who Attacks The South to General Who Guards The East, and finally, he achieved his highest rank yet and became the Marquis of Yongchang Village.

Unfortunately, Zhao Yun was better at leading the cavalry, but the number of calvary in the Shu Han Dynasty was too few. Thus the number of soldiers that Zhao Yun could lead was only around twenty thousand.

In other words, these barracks should be composed of more than ten thousand people.

If you think about it, there were many ranks in the army such as squad leaders, battalion commanders and what not. Naturally, their strength would be higher than normal soldiers.

On the other hand, the big boss Zhao Yun should also be quite strong, and Wei Xiao Bei struggled to estimate his strength.

In truth, the Han soldiers escorting Wei Xiao Bei should have a shi leader and two squad leaders. He could also tell that they were stronger than the normal soldiers by a bit. The amount of sweat on their faces was lesser, meaning that they were around the 2-Star Elite level.

“The drums had already sounded, why are you so late? Are you trying to go against military law?!”

At this moment, a resonant voice could be heard. An officer wearing scale armor was walking over. Just from the manner with which he walked over, Wei Xiao Bei judged that he was at least a 3-Star Creature.

“Reporting to the station commander. I have caught a suspicious person by the pool. He claims to be a good person who came to help the army.”

The leader in the team immediately went up to report.

It could be said that Wei Xiao Bei’s previous words had been useful. Otherwise, the shi leader could have just said he was a spy. If that happened in the current situation, Wei Xiao Bei might have just been chopped by a sword and no one would complain.

“Since it is like that, you guys go assemble first. Let me bring him for an inquiry with the minister of war.”

Wei Xiao Bei was amazed. A station commander who only led a hundred people was a 3-Star Creature. This was a bit terrifying.

However, Wei Xiao Bei did not have any plans to rebel at the moment as he obediently followed behind.

As he had guessed, the valley had expanded in the Dust World.

The valley that was originally two thousand meters long had expanded to ten times the size. Moreover, a big space had opened up in the middle of it.

In the space, soldiers from everywhere began to gather in formations while holding bows. In front of the formations was tall equipment that appeared to be giant. There was no lack of trebuchets and ballistae among them. However, this equipment was a lot bigger compared to the ones in the real world. at least five times bigger.

At the eve of battle, the mood immediately rose.

Before walking to the minister of war’s tent, the battle formation began to move out.

“It has begun.”

The station commander did not see Wei Xiao Bei as some kind of barbarian and did not keep his eyes on him. He only looked at the soldiers and enviously muttered.

 Begun?

It had indeed begun. It could be seen from this position that the battle outside the valley had begun.

The Bi Fang was currently diving down the mouth of the valley. There was a stone fort at the mouth of the valley. Although the area was not big, bright red objects shot out from the stone fort towards the big bird.

Upon seeing this, Wei Xiao Bei activated his [Eagle Eye], causing the scene that was thousands of meters away to be zoomed in, appearing to be very clear.

In truth, the bright red objects were three-meter long arrows that had been shot from the fort. The arrow had been covered with a red light.

Seeing the stone fort launch an attack, the large bird leaned to the side, dodging the attack. Moreover, it had opened its mouth to breathe out fire.

Boom!

The flame pillar had instantly stretched out hundreds of meters in distance and instantly landed on the stone fort. Afterward, an earth-shaking sound echoed as the ground shook. Even though Wei Xiao Bei was thousands of meters away, he could still feel the shaking.

The bird’s attack carried this much power!

Wei Xiao Bei’s face changed. The station commander’s face had also paled.

Even if he did not use [Precise Calculation] he could tell how strong the bird was.

It was at least 4-Star Elite!

It was hard to tell who was stronger between the Bi Fang and the Citizen of Long Bo, but the Bi Fang was slightly stronger than the Radiant Sacred Beetle.

And the Radiant Sacred Beetle was a 4-Star Elite Creature!

If Wei Xiao Bei went up against such a powerful monster, he would probably be turned into ashes with just one attack!

“Damned monster!”

The station commander saw that there were no traces of a counter-attack from the stone fort, causing him to gnash his teeth in hatred.

“What kind of monster is that? It’s so strong.”

Wei Xiao Bei decided to ask this question while the station commander was stirred up.

Hearing Wei Xiao Bei say that the monster was strong, the station commander became a bit angry, but with his strength, it was impossible for him to just say it was not strong as that would be too shameless. Thus he hesitated for a moment and angrily said, “Hmph. That Bi Fang is nothing. If the General of Tiger’s Might was here, even ten Bi Fangs would be annihilated. If it was not that he was injured in the battle against the Golden Crow’s child three days ago… hmph! Even if it was like that if Little Officer Zhao comes out, he would be able to drive it away!”

It could be said that the station commander was a chatterbox, and naturally he felt free to act this way because he thought Wie Xiao Bei would not be able to run away.

However, Wei Xiao Bei was able to gather information from what he heard.

The General of Tiger’s Might should be Zhao Yun.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao would send his army to fight over Hanzhong. Huang Zhong, a general of Liu Bei, had set fire to Cao Cao’s provisions but was late when coming back. Due to that, Zhao Yun had brought with him cavalrymen to check the situation. This had caused him to encounter Cao Cao’s army and become pincered. His group fought a hard battle and successfully broke through the pincer hold. However, when he broke out, his deputy Zhang Zhu had been injured. Zhao Yun immediately went back and fought the army while successfully saving Zhang Zhu. Afterward, when he returned to camp, he ordered his soldiers to leave the gates open and remove the flags.

This made Cao Cao think that the empty camp was an ambush. After retreating, Zhao Yun had ordered the drums to give the command to rain arrows on Cao Cao’s army. Cao Cao’s army was shocked as they retreated and trampled on each other as they fled, some even falling into the Han river and drowning.

Afterward, Liu Bei had personally inspected the scene of battle and exclaimed, “Zi Long is full of courage!”. This had made everyone call him the General of Tiger’s Might.

Thus it was not an actual position but a way to address him as a sign of respect.

The Golden Crow’s child being able to injure Zhao Yun meant that their strengths were similar, but he came out stronger. As for Little Officer Zhao, it probably meant one of Zhao Yun’s children. His strength shouldn’t be that bad. Otherwise, this station commander would probably not say this.

It must be known that strict rules were followed in the Han army. Saying things recklessly could be penalized. Although the station commander was facing a captive such as him, the commander did not dare say anything recklessly.

After calculating, the Bi Fang’s strength was around 4-Star Elite. If Zhao Yun’s child could compare to it, then he would probably be 4-Star Terror or above!

In short, it was already beyond Wei Xiao Bei’s imagination. It must be known that Wei Xiao Bei was only a normal 3-Star Creature.

It was easy to imagine how many evolution points he would need to level up his rank again.

As the Bi Fang’s attack landed on the stone fort, it did not continue advancing further and only circled the fort from above as it cried out, showing that it was afraid of the valley.
