Legendary Armament Canon

1242 Massacre, Trailblazer (2)

Wang Xuanyi pondered. “Although Cang Hao doesn’t need help, there’s something you have to consider seriously, Zhou Shu.

“The other party has a weapon called a dharma treasure. Their dharma treasures are similar to our connate divine weapons, but they’re even more powerful. I have a feeling that these dharma treasures might pose a huge threat to us.”

His Zhanlu Sword had been destroyed by a dharma treasure.

“Is this it?” Zhou Shu flipped his wrist, and a sword orb the size of a baby’s fist appeared in his hand.

He had gotten it from the hand of the enemy he killed.

At the time, he didn’t know that it was a dharma treasure. He only saw that it looked like a good thing and put it away first. It was purely his nature.

“Yes, this is it,” Wang Xuanyi said seriously.

“Your Highness, we also seized a fragment of a dharma treasure.”

Zhang San and Sun Gongping were helping each other over, and Zhang San handed over the fragment.

“Your Highness, dharma treasures should be very rare among the enemies from beyond the heavens. Among this army, only a handful of people had a dharma treasure,” Mi Ziwen said.

Zhou Shu nodded. “I’ll think of a way to understand dharma treasures.”

Then he said grimly, “The most important thing now is to figure out what happened in the outside world.

“Although we don’t have to worry about Cang Hao, the sudden appearance of this army means that even more enemies can enter at any time.

“The Demon Realm hasn’t been unified yet, and the human race is still in a state of disunity. Once the enemy attacks, can we effectively resist?

“Most importantly, have the injuries of the formidable enemy who can devour worlds recovered? Can he attack this time?”

Zhou Shu asked a few questions.

Everyone’s hearts sank. They had no answers to these questions.

In fact, Zhou Shu didn’t expect to hear any answers from them.

He asked these questions only to help him sort out his thoughts and decide what to do next.

Mi Ziwen pondered and said, “Your Highness, the art of war is illusory. I think the enemy doesn’t have the ability to attack with their full strength for the time being. Otherwise, more people would have come.

“This thousand-man team should be the vanguard they sent over by paying a considerable price. From their actions, as soon as they came over, they didn’t fight steadily but wanted to rush into the human continent quickly. Their strategic goal wasn’t to clear a path.”

If it was just a vanguard force, there was no need to advance at once. They could completely stabilize themselves first and wait for the main force to arrive before crushing the enemy with lightning speed.

This was the way to use soldiers.

Of course, he couldn’t rule out the possibility that it was because the thousand-man commander was too confident.

But the possibility was not high.

Zhou Shu nodded. He felt that Mi Ziwen made sense.

“If Big Brother’s guess is correct, then we don’t have to worry about a full-scale war for the time being. We still have time.”

Zhou Shu said solemnly, “But these are just our guesses. There’s a lot at stake. We have to be sure this guess is the truth.”

“Your Highness, I’ll go!” Zhang San said. “It’s my duty as a scout to gather information.

“Since they can come here, then we can go there too. I am willing to go to the outside world to find out the truth!”

“Grandpa!” Zhang Qiyun’s expression changed.

As Wang Xin’s deputy general, he had followed Wang Xin here. His performance earlier on the battlefield was commendable.

Zhang San didn’t even look at Zhang Qiyun. He was the number one scout in the world and also the number one scout in Great Wei. If he didn’t stand out now, when would he?

Zhou Shu looked at Zhang San. “Zhang San, going to the outside world is different from before. You might never return.”

“I know,” Zhang San said. “As a scout, every time we take action, we have to be prepared to never return. It’s fine if I can’t come back.”

“Bullshit,” Sun Gongping cursed. “The enemy from the outside world hasn’t been destroyed. Dream on if you want to die quickly.”

He looked at Zhou Shu. “Old Zhou, I’ll go with him. Without my protection, he might not be able to come back.”

“Why are you messing around and wanting to go too? Are you going to deliver food to others?” Yang Hong said angrily.

In this battle, Sun Gongping was the most seriously injured.

With his current injuries, it was already lucky that he wasn’t dead. It was impossible for him to recover without recuperating for a few months.

“I’ll go,” Xiao Jianghe said. “I’ll go with Zhang San. My combat strength is the strongest among us. It’s more suitable for me to go.”

“You’re the strongest?” Wang Xin said indignantly. “After I broke through to the Grotto-Heaven realm, we haven’t really sparred!”

Seeing that they were arguing over who would go to the outside world, Wang Xuanyi and Shi Changsheng looked at each other.

It wasn’t like they didn’t know anything about the situation of the Ten Nations. No wonder these people could support a nation while being targeted by the Grotto-Heavens.

Their fearless and caring style was really enviable.

With such comrades, they could naturally press forward without fear on the battlefield.

Zhou Shu was so lucky.

Wang Xuanyi and Shi Changsheng were a little envious. Over the years, they had been dealing with enemies from the outside world, but there were fewer and fewer comrades working together with them.

Now, there were only the three of them left.

As for the Grotto-Heaven Masters who had lived until now, they were not worth mentioning at all!

“There’s no need to fight. None of you need to go.” Zhou Shu shook his head. “I’ll send an incarnation with Zhang San.”

If not for the need to use Zhang San’s professional skills, Zhou Shu wouldn’t even bring Zhang San with him.

But in terms of being a scout, Zhang San was indeed an expert. In this aspect, even Zhou Shu was slightly inferior.

And he did need a helper on this trip.

Zhou Shu had always insisted on leaving professional matters to professionals.

He had never thought of doing everything himself. In that case, even Zhuge Liang would be exhausted to death.

“Zhou Shu, we’ve been dealing with enemies from the outside world for so long, but we still don’t know what the outside world looks like,” Wang Xuanyi suddenly said. “Since we have this opportunity, let us go with you so that we can take care of each other. In any case, it’s useless for us to stay here.”

It was very likely that something had already happened to Cang Hao. Without Cang Hao, this training ground naturally lost its training effect.

Wang Xuanyi and the other two had been here for many years, and this place no longer provided useful training for them.

“Over the years, we’ve fought countless enemies and know them well. We might be able to help,” Wang Xuanyi said sincerely.

He didn’t flatter himself, but he wouldn’t belittle himself either.

Wang Xuanyi’s strength was passable. At the very least, he wouldn’t be a burden.

Zhou Shu looked at Wang Xuanyi. Seeing Wang Xuanyi’s firm attitude, he pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, “In that case, let’s go together and see if this outside world is really a tiger’s den!”

If not for the fact that he still had to hold down and preside over this place, Zhou Shu would have gone over to take a look himself.

Speaking of which, Zhou Shu had never stepped out to the outer world in the war ten thousand years ago. Even now, he knew nothing about the outside world.

Yao Qing, who had been Bai Yue, had been to the outside world. But after he reincarnated, his memories of that world were also blurry.

“Your Highness, can you wait for me for a moment?” Zhang San cupped his hands.

Seeing Zhou Shu nod, he walked to the side. “Zhang Qiyun, come here!”

He called Zhang Qiyun aside, looking as if he was making arrangements for his funeral. Zhang Qiyun’s eyes turned red as he held back his tears.

A moment later, Zhang San returned to Zhou Shu’s side and said in a deep voice, “Your Highness, we can set off now.”

Zhou Shu looked at Wang Xuanyi and his wife. “Is there anything else you want to prepare?”

Wang Xuanyi and his wife looked at each other. “There’s no need.”

“Alright, then let’s be the scouts and see what the outside world looks like.”

Then Zhou Shu’s body shone brightly, and a figure stepped out of his body and soared into the sky.
