Chapter 730: Combat Squad

Zhao Zhao Wuling led Ye Ye Jingtian and Li Yi into this building.

And at this moment, Li Yi also clearly felt that there were many powerful auras in this building, and some auras even made him feel a palpitation. Clearly, there were extraordinary strong men sitting in town.

"Although the time for Earth to open cultivation is short, when it reaches this point of survival, top-tier strong men will still be born. After all, it is the foundation of a world, and it cannot be underestimated." Li Yi secretly thought in his heart.

His cultivation time was not early, and now he had the strength to confront the Mahayana period level. And evolvers who stepped into cultivation earlier than him must have reached a higher realm.

When the situation was stable before, these top-tier strong men might not show up.

But several worlds joined forces to invade Earth, and these hidden strong men would inevitably be unable to sit still and show up one by one.

Although the number could not be compared with other worlds, it could also temporarily stabilize part of the situation.

However, Zhao Zhao Wuling did not take the two to the combat hall, but came to an office next to it. Sitting in the office was an artificial intelligence robot, not a living person.

"Ye Ye Jingtian and Li Yi from the No. 8 base have come to support the Earth defense line, register." Zhao Zhao Wuling said.

This artificial intelligence robot replied: "Okay, identity information has been registered. Thank you both for your support."

After the registration was completed, Zhao Zhao Wuling led the two to a hall.

There were quite a few people gathered here, and they were all discussing the recent war situation intensely.

"It won't work to fight like this. The Demon God World and the Profound Immortal Continent are joining forces more and more closely. Once they are on the battlefield, they will suffer the joint strangulation of Great Demons and Mahayana period strong men. Their purpose is very simple, which is to slowly consume our Earth's high-end combat power on this battlefield. Once our high-end combat power is consumed, Earth will completely become

"With Earth's current strength, there's no way to resist the foundations of these two worlds in one go. The reason the other side doesn't intend to swallow Earth in one gulp is likely because they want to wear us down, force us to give up voluntarily, vacate our territory, and cross the border to leave. Right now, it's like a dull knife cutting flesh."

"Wasn't this kind of situation expected long ago? From trading space for time before, to now sacrificing a group of people to buy time, everything is within the plan. Evolvers have mastered the method of cross-dimensional travel and have infinite potential. Haven't you noticed that more and more experts have emerged in the ten bases recently? You must know that before, evolvers could barely handle Heavenly Demons, but now, there are quite a few experts who can even handle Great Demons."

"That may be so, but the Demon God Realm has Demon Kings sitting in command, and the Profound Immortal Continent has True Immortals protecting it. Once the situation turns bad, the Demon Kings and True Immortals will definitely take the field. Even if we have many experts, it will be of no use. Moreover, the battlefield is about to open again, and another batch of experts will be lost then."

"."

From the discussions, it was not hard to see that the situation at the Earth defense line was dire. Evolvers were being targeted by experts from both worlds, and the losses were severe, yet everyone still insisted on staying here.

They wanted to use their own lives to buy time for the remaining twenty million-plus evolvers on Earth, unwilling to just give up Earth and flee to other realms.

And then, the arrival of Li Yi and Ye Ye Jingtian.

Two strange auras appeared, causing the noisy sounds in the hall to suddenly go quiet.

"Supporters from Base No. 8 have arrived. I wonder which squad is willing to take them in," Zhao Zhao Wuling said.

"Supporters? Let them join my squad. I'm exactly two people short here; I suffered heavy losses last time and still haven't filled the vacancies," one person stood up almost without hesitation.

"He He Zhiming, your squad still has eight people. My squad only has three left. Let them come to me, otherwise my squad will be wiped out soon," another cultivator stood up.

That was a middle-aged man who looked slightly weathered, his armor damaged and stained with blood, as if he had just experienced a great battle not long ago.

Jiang Yue?

The others fell silent for a moment when they saw this person speak.

Currently, every combat squad was short of people, but Jiang Yue's combat squad was even more tragic. Last time they entered the battlefield, ten went in and three returned, and even Jiang Yue, the captain, was severely injured and nearly died.

"Jiang Yue, your squad is already finished. You should just disband and merge with others; absorbing new people is pointless," someone said after a brief silence.

"Bullshit! The grudge from last time hasn't been avenged yet. If this combat squad is to be disbanded, it'll have to wait until I slaughter those two Great Demons," Jiang Yue suddenly roared: "My teammates cannot die in vain. Give these two to me, and the squad will have five people. Once the battlefield opens next time, we'll still have a chance to fight again. Alright, this matter is settled. These two are now members of Combat Squad No. 9."

He didn't want to argue back and forth, so he slammed the table to settle the matter.

Seeing this, the others didn't say anything more.

As for the newcomers, it was the same whichever combat squad they joined; they would have to go to the battlefield sooner or later, and they wouldn't suffer prejudice or unfair treatment just because of the different combat squads.

Although the number of people in each squad varied, what mattered on the battlefield was the total number; once a battle started, several squads would often participate together.

The reason for implementing a squad system was to facilitate coordination and cooperation between each other.

Seeing that no one objected, Jiang Yue immediately said: "Xiao Yuan."

"Hello, I am here," the voice of the artificial intelligence rang out in the hall.

Jiang Yue said: "Add the information of these two supporters to Combat Squad No. 9."

"Alright, information added. Ye Ye Jingtian, Li Yi, welcome to Combat Squad No. 9," the voice of the AI Xiao Yuan rang out again.

Seeing this, Jiang Yue nodded with satisfaction, then he asked: "Who is Ye Ye Jingtian?"

"I am," Ye Ye Jingtian said.

Jiang Yue said: "My name is Jiang Yue. From now on, we are comrades-in-arms, so don't be so reserved. Tell me about your strength and whether you have experience fighting Great Demons."

"I have personally killed a Great Demon, just outside Survival Base No. 8," Ye Ye Jingtian said.

As soon as these words were spoken, many people looked over in unison.

"Killed a Great Demon? Good fellow, is everyone who came to support this time so strong? Are you sure you killed it alone, without teaming up with anyone?" The man named He He Zhiming from earlier had his eyes light up and hurried over.

Being able to kill a Great Demon meant one was a pillar of strength on the Earth defense line. Once on the battlefield, combat plans could be formulated around them, and it could greatly increase the squad's survival rate.

Ye Ye Jingtian touched the purple and blue swords hanging at his waist and said: "I killed it alone, without teaming up with anyone. Perhaps the Great Demon I killed hadn't reached its peak strength yet; I heard that Great Demons in the Demon God Realm also have differences in strength."

He did not exaggerate his battle record, because this was a battlefield; if one boasted about their strength, it was easy to run into trouble, so it was better to be humble.

But even so, everyone was shocked.

"Good, very good. If you can kill a Great Demon, next time we go to the battlefield, everyone in the squad, including me, will fight around you. You tell us how you want us to coordinate, and we'll do it," Jiang Yue said with a loud laugh, his sense of decadence swept away upon hearing this.

As long as Ye Ye Jingtian truly had such strength, letting him have free rein could determine the outcome of a battle.

"Ah?" Ye Ye Jingtian was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled: "Better not. Although I can kill a Great Demon if I fight for my life, I'm still more than a little bit behind Li Yi. If we really have to go to the battlefield, it's better to fight around Li Yi."

He hurriedly pushed Li Yi forward.

After witnessing Li Yi's strength, Ye Ye Jingtian still had some self-awareness in his heart.

Hmm?

There's another expert?

Hearing this, the others couldn't help but look at Li Yi, who was standing to the side.

In fact, when the two of them entered, they had already noticed these two distinct auras, especially this Li Yi, who was quite extraordinary, only his battle armor was too gorgeous and clean, making people wonder if this person had actually been through real combat.

After all, having great strength is one thing, and having combat experience is another.

On the battlefield, it's not up to one person to decide; encountering top experts and being surrounded and killed is a common occurrence.

"Li Yi, have you also killed a Great Demon?" Jiang Yue asked.

Whether one has killed a Great Demon is the standard for testing a person's strength, because on the battlefield, the Demon God Realm side starts by sending Great Demons into the fray. If one doesn't have the ability to counter a Great Demon, going to the battlefield is a nine-in-ten chance of death.

"I've killed three Great Demons and two Mahayana-stage cultivators," Li Yi thought about his battle record since coming out of the Savage World.

Those three Great Demons died in the Four Seas and Eight Continents.

As for the two Mahayana-stage cultivators, one died on his way back to Tianchang City, and the other was just shot and killed by his Red Gold Arrow when he arrived at the Earth defense line.

However, the others in the hall were stunned when they heard such a battle record.

"Killed three Great Demons and two Mahayana-stage cultivators? Really? You're not joking, are you?"

"Did you kill them all alone? Why does this sound so outrageous to me?"

"Incredible, are the two people who came to support today so fierce? If the evolvers on Earth all had such strength, how could we be so stifled? We would have fought back long ago."

While shocked, they also held some doubts about Li Yi's strength.

If Li Yi really did take down three Great Demons and two Mahayana-stage cultivators by himself, then his strength was likely second only to Demon Kings and Human Immortals, and he could almost walk sideways on the battlefield.

Of course, walking sideways was a bit of an exaggeration, but if coordinated well, they could completely wipe out the enemy's participating forces in the next battle.

Ye Ye Jingtian, who was to the side, said: "Although I didn't see the scene where Li Yi killed the three Great Demons, we were indeed ambushed by cultivators on the way here. Three Mahayana-stage cultivators teamed up to intercept us, and one of the Mahayana-stage sword cultivators was shot and killed by Li Yi with a single arrow."

"It was precisely because of this that the other two Mahayana-stage cultivators were scared off, and we arrived here safely."

He could testify for Li Yi that Li Yi truly had the strength to slay Mahayana-stage experts.

And Li Yi didn't waste words; he took out a huge head from his Five Elements Bracelet and threw it on the ground. This head was not human, but the head of a Green Lion. But this was no ordinary animal Green Lion; it was a Great Demon that had transformed into human form.

Although the blood on the head had dried, it was still fresh, showing that this Great Demon had been slain not long ago. The residual Great Demon power could be felt even from far away.

"This is the Green Lion, a Great Demon under the Silver Tooth Tianyue Yao Wang." At this moment, a female evolver stood up abruptly, gritting her teeth and saying, her eyes fixed on that head, the hatred evident.

"When the Demon God Realm invaded Earth, I saw with my own eyes that this Green Lion Great Demon once swallowed half a city in one gulp."

"What? The Great Demon that swallowed half a city back then was this guy?" Others had also heard of this matter.

Because it was too cruel, it made every evolver on Earth feel angry.

It was just that many evolvers didn't know which Great Demon was responsible, so the debt could only be counted against the Demon God Realm.
