"What really happened in Jinling?" Gao Xuan asked deftly on their way over.
"As far I know there are a lot of Demon hordes around Dongting Lake. The nearest to Jinling is the Giant Reptile Demon horde . They have a strong Ruler and when their numbers are high they are also Cannibalistic.
Jinling City is a new city, it's the closest City to Dongting Lake. The authorities and military have been planning to develop it to a new headquarters in a few years.
They are well underway with the project and residential acess was allowed to the city a few years ago. About two hundred thousand people live there. Now we have to see how the military will proceed.
If the Rulers get involved, it will get complicated more than the Blood Tabi Beasts. They were barely a horde compared to Dongting Lake or the Undead." It was Captain Huo that answered Gao Xuan.
From the info they got from the Heavenly Eagle squad, Captains were slowly informing the soldiers about the situation and bringing them up to speed.
"When we get to Jinling City, we are to report to their western base and collect our orders from there." He added.
"So much for resting" Cao Guang sighed, "You seem distracted Song Xia?".
" I made a small breakthrough" said Song Xia with a coy smile.
" You reached the third tier with Sound element, then you can use fourth tier intermediate spells already?" Luo Heng gasped.
"No, third tier is harder than second tier"
"Then did Shadow element reached second tier?"
"No something else but it is very practical".
The ancient Capital military soon reported to the western base in Jinling in a feww hours. The soldiers had taken the precaution of not letting every element being depleted, while Ancient Capital provided them with some more Undead crystals.
A Hunter in Jinling had noticed the signs of monster invasion and alerted the city to it. the evacuation had begun three hours before the invasion even started.
Now it was nine hours after the invasion that the ancient capital military's land troops got here. The evacuation was almost complete, ironically at the same time enough high level combatants had arrived. The current situation was the military was searching for stragglers.
In six hours the military and magic association would completely evacuate from Jinling. Squads from Ancient Capital were tasked with bringing these stragglers to the shelters.
"Squads 13,14,15,17 take the different tunnels and help those in the tunnels and help the students of these schools, who have yet to reach safety"
Jinling City had four tunnels in it's west side it went till the other ends of the city. Except for the South end all had fallen to the monsters.
The squads were designated to take the kilometre long tunnels to reach three schools, ranging from High schools to primary ones. As for the additional squad they would go to the primary school as well.
Squad 17 were sent to retrieve students from the North side magic High school.
"These tunnels might already have demons that like the dark" Gao Xuan sighed as he took the front.
"Don't tire yourself out with Brilliant Lights, go illuminate the way for us little one"
Cao Guang asked Little Flame Belle to exit the contract space by itself. As a darling of the Northern Burning Valley's Starry Sky Tree, Flame Belle's had innate talent of space element.
Little Flame Belle had awakened a bit of her talent when she entered Youth Phase and reached Warrior level. Cao Guang began asking her to exit contract space so that he could save spiritual energy and therefore keep Fenrir longer when he was summoned.
Gao Xuan and Little Flame Belle were up front, the Flames naturally emitted by Little Flame Belle was enough to brighten a radius of ten metres inside a dark tunnel.
Thankfully she hadn't reached the peak of Warrior level of not her milk powder would slowly start burning through Cao Guang's savings.
Song Xia, Luo Heng and Cao Guang made up the second line. Song Xia would keep using her spells to search for the heart beats of monsters on their way.
