Just as the refugees were rushing into Crimson Peak Stronghold, Spike Peter, deputy commander of the New Rain Legion, Tommy and Jiang Wen, as well as Wang Hu, leader of the Liberation Tigers, and Mu Qianhe, leader of the Vermillion Bird Legion, were gathered in front of the simulated sand table to discuss the defense of the stronghold.

“Jiang Wen, you lead 800 garrison members, 30 power armor warriors, responsible for the north of the guard.

“Wang Hu, Mu Qianhe, I will allocate 500 garrison members and 60 power-armored warriors to take charge of the east and west.”

“Tommy and I will lead the rest to guard the south …” Spike looked around and said, “Everyone, I’m done. Is there anything else you don’t know?”

“Clear.” Everyone answered in unison, and then they left one after another.

“Wait …” Just as Mu Qianhe reached the door, he was stopped by Spike. “I’ll call three other red-clothed warriors for you, so don’t go to the battlefield yourself.”

“Why? I’m just like Wang Hu.” Mu Qianhe said vigilantly.

“This is the commander’s arrangement.” Spike explained.

“Divine Priest Qin?” Mu Qianhe asked doubtfully.

“Yes.” Spike nodded.

Mu Qianhe sighed and said helplessly, “Then … Alright …” The reason why Mu Yuqinxin gave her special care was because of that person. In case she dies in battle, she won’t be able to go back and give an explanation. However, as the Guild Leader, she could not hide from the side and watch her subordinates fight to the death, so she could only try her best to disobey the order.

When Mu Qianhe walked out of the command center and began to arrange personnel, the Sand Wind Castle thousands of kilometers away had already fallen into chaos.

The people brought their families along and rushed onto the streets, wanting to escape from this troublesome place. Some gangsters with ulterior motives took advantage of the chaos to hide in the crowd, smash and rob, throw gasoline bottles, and create more chaos, so as to fish in troubled waters and benefit from it.

Sandstorm Castle was inhabited by a large number of insecticides, and the criminals were the most common. All of a sudden, robbery, rape, all sorts of crimes were committed in every corner of the city. The young owner of Ralph’s Bakery was holding a rolling pin in both hands, hiding behind the cabinets stacked at the door, staring nervously at the people coming and going outside through the cracks.

“Bang!”

Suddenly, a sound of glass shattering rang out above his head, followed by a blazing fire. Ralph hurriedly threw down his rolling pin, picked up the fire extinguisher beside his feet, and sprayed it fiercely.

“Heavens!” After a burst of cold mist, the flames were finally extinguished. As Ralph cursed, he wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, just as he put down the fire extinguisher, the sound of gunfire came from outside.

“Dada … Dada … Dada … Dada … Dada … Dada … Dada … Dada … Dada … Dada …”

“Follow, follow!” “Shoot, shoot!”

He instinctively shrunk his neck and looked out through the cracks between the cupboards, only to see teams of heavily armed guards running past the shop one after another.

“The insects are attacking. The entire city is under martial law. Everyone, please close the doors and windows and stay at home. Don’t run around and cause chaos …”

“Stay in the streets and cause chaos. Kill anyone who causes chaos on the spot!”

Not long after, a propaganda vehicle flashing with red and blue lights drove past the shop. A emotionless female voice came from the huge voiceover, echoing in the air above the street. Gunshots and screams came from time to time, as if to fulfill the sentence: “execute on the spot, shoot to kill!”

At this moment, upstairs at Ralph’s Bakery, several men were busy packing their things. A tall, brown-haired woman in a pleated dress stood beside them, pointing at them while shaking her fan.

“My sherry perfume, Sheebeck lipstick, limited edition bag, and clothes … hey … don’t take that file box, it won’t fit in the car anymore …”

“Big sister, don’t you want all the company documents?” Quinn said gloomily.

“That thing isn’t worth much. Who would steal it!” Syris crossed his waist and said confidently.

“Fine, fine, fine. You have the final say.” Quinn turned around and continued to pack.

“Hurry up, I heard the sound of the propaganda truck. When the garrison manages to control the situation, we can set off.” Syris urged.

“Isn’t it martial law?” Quinn asked as he tidied up.

“I’m from the Hiroshi Clan.” Syris shook his fan and said with a slight hint of interest.

A few minutes later, Quinn and the others finally packed their things, moved into the jeep, and opened the plane door.

Along the way, the guards who passed by only glanced at the blue-backed white dove flag stuck in the front of the car and ignored it. This was because it was a flag that symbolized the nobility of the territory, and it had immunity from war.

About twenty minutes later, the jeep arrived near the plane gate.

In order to prevent wild insects from surging into Silver City’s world, this place was heavily guarded and surrounded by three layers. Not only were most of the troops of Windsand Castle gathered here, but even the 5th legion of the Dawn Expeditionary Army was gathered here.

“Hello, dear lady, the plane gate has been closed.” The guard at the checkpoint stepped forward and said.

“I am a member of the Syros Family of the Northern Wilderness Continent. I am protected by the High Nobility Decree.” As he spoke, Syris showed him the clan emblem.

“Please wait a moment.” The guard grabbed the identification device from his companion and swept it across Cyrus’ face.

“Dudu” With a light sound, Syris’s information appeared on the LCD screen of the recognizer.

“Thank you for your cooperation. Please take your time.” After checking the information, the guard bowed to her and shouted to his companion who was controlling the interceptor pole, “Allow passage.”

After that, Syris and the others passed two more checkpoints, drove onto the viaduct, and entered the plane gate. A blue light flashed in front of them, and they appeared at the other end of the viaduct.

At this moment, a large number of troops were gathered in front of the planar gate of Quicksand Town, and they were waiting in a tight formation. At a glance, the defensive line stretched for thousands of meters, and there were tens of thousands of mecha units. Thousands of aircraft were circling above the perimeter of the defensive line, like dark clouds. In the distant horizon, the shadows of six Silver Cities appeared, faintly discernible in the sunlight, as if they were flying towards this direction.

“Wow” Seeing this scene, Quinn was so shocked that he almost lost his grip on the steering wheel. He had seen the world before. At least the last two insect tides had been in Sand Wind Castle. However, this was the first time he had seen such a large formation. After all, his status was too low. In the past, he could only hide at home during the insect tide.

“Drive steadily.” Syris put away his fan and knocked on Quinn’s hand. It had to be said that the nerves of the Syros were rather thick, and they could maintain a calm atmosphere no matter what kind of environment they were in.

“Rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble

“Are you sick? You’re still going to Sand Wind Castle at this time.” Quinn didn’t expect a car to arrive. He was shocked and couldn’t help but curse.

‘Perhaps I’m on vacation ~’ Cyrus said casually.

‘”No way” Quinn was dumbfounded.

Coincidentally, Syris was right about this matter. These people took advantage of the bug plague to enjoy the excitement.

About half an hour ago, He Xin, the mining commissioner of the Wind Sand Castle Mining Commission, received an e-mail.

“Respected members, please change into luxurious dresses and wrap around clean napkins. We will enjoy our delicate white bodies amidst the raging swarm of insects …”

“Symphonic bug cries interweave with melodious oriole cries, sweet blood mixed with endless joy, danger accompanied by bliss, let us seek new life in death!”

“Welcome to the insect tide feast.”

The e-mail was signed “Elysium”.

“Holy shit!” After reading the email, He Xin’s entire body stiffened. The abnormal behavior of this group of people was truly beyond the imagination of ordinary people. To be able to enjoy themselves at this time was simply abnormal to the extreme!

“But” He Xin deleted the email, took out the gold card from his inner pocket, stroked the thorn pattern on it, and said to himself, “I like it.” Ever since he got this card and joined the membership, he hadn’t participated in any activities. Taking advantage of this insect tide’s vacation, we should head over and take a look.

Just as He Xin walked towards the apartment in the residential area of City Hall, the Crimson Peak Stronghold was silent, and only the sound of the radio echoed.

“Everyone, listen up …”

“I am Zhao Wenke, the staff officer of Chifeng Stronghold. All combatants, please put away your guns and use cold weapons to fight.”

“During the battle, you should try to avoid noise as much as possible.”

“All non-combatants, please remain calm and try not to make any noise.”

“Those who make noise and deliberately create chaos will be killed on the spot!”

“I repeat, all combatants put away their guns and use cold weapons to fight …”

The miners were housed in a hall on the first floor of the fortress, while logistical and commercial personnel stayed in their respective annex buildings. The Crimson Peak Guards were divided into four teams, led by Tie Zha, Hagrid, Black Pig King, and Zhao Wenke.

Lilith led the Sand Fox team to take charge of internal security. Sophia Bubvero led the Nightingale team to guard the fourth floor of the fortress and provide fire support at high altitudes if necessary. Old Bull led the maintenance team to assist Lilith in managing the miners.

About two hours later, at 83 p.m. Satt time, Tie Zha stood on the city wall south of Crimson Peak Stronghold and looked into the distance.

In the orange-red light, the boundary between heaven and earth gradually became blurry.

“Coming.” He picked up the walkie-talkie and said calmly.

As time passed, the horizon disappeared, replaced by boundless smoke and dust.

“Squeakk squeakk squeakk …”

Immediately after, dense bug cries came from far to near. At the beginning, it was like a drizzling rain, not too ear-piercing. Then it gradually grew bigger, turning into a shower, then into a rainstorm, and finally into a rolling sound of thunder that rumbled through the earth.

The huge sound waves shook the hearts of the people. In the blink of an eye, only the black tide that covered the sky and covered the sun remained in the rapidly contracting pupils.

The swarm of weeping flies rushed forward like a huge wave that slowly rose. It was boundless, without beginning or end, and slammed towards a lonely boat in the sea.

The earth trembled, and the orange-red sky was dyed grayish-brown.

It was the color of a swarm of insects. It had already covered the red Gobi Desert, becoming the only color in the world.

“My God” On the east wall, Hagrid’s eyes widened. This apocalyptic scene, even if it was as heroic as him, he still felt fear in his heart …
