Lord of Illusions City
Chapter 513 The First Day's Battle
Du Gu Tianfeng looked out the window:
"It's not just the council, but also the four great families, the Avengers Alliance, and even the common people, including your military. There are actually some people who just want to maintain the status quo. As long as someone goes to die, feeding the Devourers so they won't catch them and their families, they can continue to amass wealth and live their luxurious lives!
"The Doro world is about to become a degenerate world. So, before that happens, I want to bring out those in the Avengers Alliance who still have the spirit of courage and remember our original intention!"
At this point, Du Gu Tianfeng looked at Hu Tao:
"You know, even if Little Li didn't appear, I was planning to take some action in the next few years. In fact, I even built a secret base in one place!
"But now it seems, the base I prepared is useless, because there's a ready-made one here!"
Du Gu Tianfeng then looked at Li Chenzhou:
"Little Li! I'll buy a war fortress from you and put it here. Can you help me train my men? No problem, right? Of course, everyone here will listen to your command, because this base is 'yours'!"
Du Gu Tianfeng emphasized the word "yours."
He saw very clearly that only by placing the ownership of this base on Li Chenzhou would there be no trouble. If it were him and Hu Tao, the council and others would definitely interfere in the affairs here!
"No problem!"
Li Chenzhou shrugged and said:
"Anyway, I can't live in such a big place by myself! You just need to pay the rent!"
"Rent? Hahahaha! No problem!"
Du Gu Tianfeng laughed loudly, then looked at Hu Tao:
"Old Hu, what do you say?"
"I..."
Hu Tao struggled in his heart. He turned his head again to look at the soldiers outside, then back at Li Chenzhou and Du Gu Tianfeng. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said:
"Okay! I'm in! I'll contact the military and transfer all the people who trust me here! They'll listen to Little Li as well."
After speaking, Hu Tao hesitated again, and finally asked:
"But the problem is... by doing this, not only the council, but also many people in our military and your Avengers Alliance will be dissatisfied. What if they can't stand it and attack us together?"
"Hahahaha! Don't worry, that's impossible!"
Du Gu Tianfeng laughed:
"We are entering here under the guise of training. What reason would they have to attack us? Although they can see that those who come here for training are all our people, Little Li chose them, and we can't do anything about it, right?"
As he spoke, Du Gu Tianfeng looked at Li Chenzhou, who couldn't help but smile. This was letting him blatantly cooperate with them in acting, right? But this had no impact on Li Chenzhou at all. On the contrary, it was in line with his interests, so he immediately nodded.
"Also, don't forget Little Li's war fortress and evolution potions, and their world's weapons. They won't give up these things. So, at least until they trade for enough things, they won't fall out with Little Li, and we'll definitely be safe in his base!!!"
Du Gu Tianfeng said, looking at Hu Tao again.
Hu Tao nodded subconsciously. This guy from the military was completely ignorant of politics. Even if Du Gu Tianfeng explained it, he didn't seem to really understand it.
But at least he understood that there was no problem for him to transfer his loyal soldiers here! One was that they had a sufficiently legitimate reason, and the other was that the people in the council didn't dare to truly fall out with them for the time being!
Since this was the case, Hu Tao was relieved. But now, neither he nor Du Gu Tianfeng could transfer their people over yet, because they couldn't use the communication system of Base Three. They could only wait until Li Chenzhou and the others had completely recovered this base.
Afterwards, the three came to the roof of the vehicle, sat there watching the battle of the 156 soldiers, while Li Chenzhou watched and pointed out the shortcomings of some soldiers, and sometimes even flew into the battlefield to demonstrate in person.
This frightened Hu Tao and Du Gu Tianfeng. You must know that the lowest level Blue Demons and zombies here were level five, and level nine were everywhere. Li Chenzhou, a level three ability user, actually dared to rush into such a battlefield?
But after watching a few times, Hu Tao and Du Gu Tianfeng began to relax, because after this kid Li Chenzhou entered the battlefield, he was as slippery as a loach, and no one could touch him at all.
Level nine Blue Demons and zombies undoubtedly overwhelmed Li Chenzhou in terms of strength. Even a solid punch could smash him into meat paste, and even his combat uniform couldn't save him.
But the problem was that you had to be able to hit him. Li Chenzhou's body dodged left and right, and no attack could truly land on him!
"How do I feel like I've lived my last few decades in vain?"
Looking at Li Chenzhou, who was moving freely in the battlefield and even able to constantly distract himself to guide the soldiers, Hu Tao couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly:
"When I was his age, I didn't even know what I was doing on the battlefield!"
"Don't compare yourself to him! Those taught by that person are all freaks! In the entire universe, there's probably only one like him!"
Du Gu Tianfeng muttered.
"Du Gu! Who exactly is that person you're talking about?"
Hu Tao asked curiously.
"I don't dare to say his name! Otherwise, I'll be in trouble!"
Du Gu Tianfeng quickly shook his head.
Seeing that Du Gu Tianfeng's eyes actually revealed a rare look of fear, Hu Tao was very surprised, but if Du Gu Tianfeng didn't say it, there was nothing he could do. He could only guess for himself, who could make Du Gu Tianfeng feel fear...
The fierce battle lasted all day. Later, Li Chenzhou had to order the 156 soldiers to be divided into two groups and take turns attacking, because even with the level nine strength of these soldiers, they couldn't keep going in this high-intensity battle.
In the middle, even Hu Tao and Du Gu Tianfeng took action one after another, but these two found in the battle that their killing efficiency was not even as good as any of the 156 soldiers, which greatly shocked them.
Of course, Du Gu Tianfeng's shock was fake, because he was still hiding his strength. As for Hu Tao... he was really shocked...
Seeing that the day was about to pass, and the soldiers who had been in fierce battles all day also showed tired expressions, and their movements were no longer as flexible as before.
So, Li Chenzhou finally issued the order to retreat. The soldiers immediately returned to the side of the war vehicles and were teleported to the garrison inside the vehicle, while Li Chenzhou parked the vehicle at the gate of the base, jamming the gate just right, making it impossible to close...
