Chapter 865 The decapitation operation is about to begin!
……
Two days later in the afternoon, the sun shone on the Olympic Flame Arena, looking a little lazy.
Just as Yuan Shang said, the pace of the Abyss' invasion of Nata has slowed down, and the monsters' attacks on the Nata tribe have become less frequent, or even disappeared.
Everything seems to have returned to calm, but in fact a greater crisis is hidden.
However, taking advantage of this rare respite, the six major tribes acted quickly and sent the injured tribesmen, as well as the elderly, children, and pregnant women who had no fighting ability in the tribe to the Holy Fire Arena for refuge.
At the same time, because the special enemy "Bill Williamson" transformed from the abyss was killed by Shao Yun, no one would attack the caravan.
Mavica even urgently mobilized a large amount of medicines from the Kingdom of Wolu and transported them to the Holy Fire Arena to alleviate the shortage of medical supplies.
At least, those injured patients now have hope of survival...
However, as more and more people flocked to the Holy Fire Arena, the space became increasingly crowded.
The arena was now full of people, and many civilians who came for refuge even had to squeeze into the dueling arena.
The House of Ennui was so overcrowded that it was like a refugee camp with almost no place to stay.
Shao Yun finished his patrol mission outside and returned to the Holy Fire Arena.
When he saw the densely packed crowd in the arena, he couldn't help but sigh: "How many people are there! If not ten thousand, there must be at least eight thousand!"
Then, Shao Yun's eyes fell on Kinich who was busy.
I saw Kinich receiving those who came to the Holy Flame Arena for refuge.
Shao Yun stepped forward and said jokingly, "Kiniqi, it seems that you have been promoted from a messenger to a staff member of the Talk Office."
Facing Shao Yun's joke, Kinich remained calm and responded calmly: "Mr. Shao Yun, you are really good at joking."
"It's just that the past two days have been calm and information exchange has been smooth, so I came here to help with personnel arrangements."
Shao Yun looked around and saw the calm scene in front of him. If it weren't for Yuan Shang's reminder, he would have thought that the Abyss was going to give up.
“Hopefully this isn’t the calm before the storm.”
Kinich nodded and agreed: "Let's take it one step at a time..."
Seeing that Kinich still had a lot of work to do, Shao Yun stopped bothering him.
"I don't have much talent for management, so I won't cause you any trouble here."
Just when Shao Yun was about to leave, a messenger named "Raman" from the Hanging Wood Man rushed over in a hurry.
"It's bad!" Raman shouted as he ran, "The civilian team from the Sons of Echo was attacked and urgently needs support!"
When Shao Yun heard that a group of civilians who came to take refuge were attacked by monsters, he slapped his forehead and said self-deprecatingly: "Okay, it's time to work, let's go to work!"
……
Shao Yun rode the Apocalypse horse "Plague" with the messenger "Raman" sitting behind him, and they rushed along the road towards the Sons of Echo tribe at lightning speed, to rescue the team that was escorting civilians to the Holy Fire Arena for refuge after being attacked by the abyss.
However, when he arrived at the scene, he was surprised to find that the monsters that were supposed to wreak havoc had already been dealt with by Sinoning.
Shao Yun hurriedly tightened the reins, and "Plague" neighed and stopped steadily.
He dismounted, walked quickly towards Sinoning, and asked with concern: "Sinoning? Are you okay?"
Sinoning shook his dazzling golden hair like a cat shaking off water.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Shao Yun, thank you for your help."
"However, you are too late. These abyss monsters are just some ordinary hillbillies. I solved them all in no time."
The messenger "Raman" on the side heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that it was just an ordinary hill people, and said: "Really? I was scared to death..."
Sinoning turned around, smiled at "Raman" and said, "But thank you anyway, Raman."
"We will be safe with Shao Yun escorting us."
Shao Yun observed the escort team in front of him. This team was almost no different from the team that escorted Master Yanmi to the Holy Fire Arena before.
The team was filled with old people and children, as well as some seriously injured Nata warriors.
"It seems that the old people, children and those members who have no fighting ability in the Echo Sons tribe should all be here, right?" Shao Yun said thoughtfully.
Sinoning nodded and answered seriously: "Indeed, the holy fire in the Holy Fire Arena can effectively resist the erosion of the abyss."
"So, that becomes the best option for the wounded and the civilians seeking refuge. While the attack speed of the Abyss has slowed down, we must send these elderly and children to the Holy Fire Arena safely as soon as possible."
Shao Yun nodded and then asked, "By the way, where is Katsina? Why don't I see that little girl?"
At this moment, Katsina suddenly poked her head out from behind a truck, waved to Shao Yun with a smile, and shouted, "I'm here!"
When Shao Yun saw that Katsina was safe and sound, he finally felt relieved.
I hope the little girl is okay...
He breathed a sigh of relief and said to Katsina with a smile: "I am relieved to see that you are safe. Did Sinoning take good care of you?"
Before Kazina could answer, Shao Yun continued to tease, "If she doesn't take good care of you, I will let Mavica assign her some work to modify the wheelbarrow as punishment."
When Xinoning heard Shao Yun say such "vicious" words, he was so angry that his hair almost stood up.
"I would rather fight those damn bastard monsters in the abyss than to modify any wheeled vehicle for Mavica!" Xinoning said dissatisfiedly.
Upon seeing this, Shao Yun quickly smiled and waved his hands, signaling the angry Xinoning to calm down. You still believe what a child says.
"Haha, okay, I was just joking, don't take it so seriously."
However, Sinoning was clearly not amused by his words. She kept a straight face and muttered indignantly: "This joke is not funny at all!"
At this moment, Kazina came over. She looked at Shao Yun and Xinoning, changed the subject, and said softly: "The frequency of the abyss attacks has decreased. Does this mean that we are about to win?"
Shao Yun turned to look at Katsina, pondered for a moment, and then slowly replied: "Maybe, but we can't take it lightly."
"We will win this war, there is no doubt about it. We must win because there is no way out."
……
Joking aside, since there were no monsters to deal with, Shao Yun escorted Xinoning and his party to the Holy Fire Arena.
Shao Yun, along with the Sons of Echo led by Kazina and Sinoning, unexpectedly encountered the refugee group from the Flowing Spring.
As soon as Malani saw Shao Yun and others, she immediately ran over like a lively little shark.
"Yohoo, Mr. Shao Yun, Katsina, Xinoning, I'm so glad to see you!"
Katsina saw that Marani appeared in front of her safely and asked with concern: "Marani, are you okay? I heard that the people of Flowing Springs were seriously polluted by the abyss."
Malani smiled, put her hands on her hips, and responded confidently, "Don't worry, I have already dealt with the pollution in the abyss, and I will definitely not let you guys miss out on the hot springs!"
Sinoning looked at Malani, who was able to maintain an optimistic attitude even in adversity, smiled bitterly and said, "You are still so optimistic. I really admire you."
Maranie nodded, her smile broadening, and she said in a soothing tone:
"Yes, I firmly believe that when facing difficulties and challenges, we should face them with an optimistic attitude rather than pessimism and disappointment."
At this point, Malani's eyes softened and she said with a hint of nostalgia and affection, "This is exactly what Auntie Agya once told me. She always taught us to be positive."
Shao Yun was very pleased to see that Malani had completely recovered from the grief of losing Aunt Agaia, and sincerely congratulated her:
"It seems that you have completely come out of the haze."
Malani gently placed her right hand on her chest and said firmly: "Yes, I have moved on. People can't always be immersed in the sadness of the past."
"Besides, we don't have time to be sad now. Aunt Agaiya certainly doesn't want to see me immersed in the sadness of the past. Instead, she hopes that I can move on."
Shao Yun nodded slightly to show his agreement.
Then he took a deep breath and raised his current biggest concern.
"I am optimistic, but what I am most worried about now is the decapitation operation that the Abyss may launch."
"From what I know so far, here in the Holy Flame Arena, there are three Nata heroes with ancient names. You, Sinonin, and Kinich are all here."
When Malani heard Shao Yun mention the Abyss's "decapitation operation", she had a very clear understanding of the matter.
"Oh, you mean the plan for the decapitation operation in the abyss. Lord Vulcan has already sent a messenger to tell us the news."
Then, Malani shook her arms, showing her strength and determination.
"But instead of living in fear and anxiety every day, I would rather take the initiative to teach the abyss a lesson and let it know that I am not so easy to be bullied!"
Seeing Malani's fighting spirit, Shao Yun couldn't help but give her a thumbs up and said, "Very good, this momentum is very good."
When Malani heard Shao Yun's praise, she stuck out her tongue mischievously, then she turned to look at Katsina and asked with concern: "By the way, Katsina, have you eaten today?"
"If not, I'll take you to the House of Ennui. Maybe you can find some delicious food there."
Katsina shook her head slightly and replied seriously, "I heard that because there are so many people taking refuge, the supplies in the arena have already been rationed."
"Let's not use up the arena's food supply. I brought some delicious sandwiches that I made myself!"
As she spoke, Katsina patted her waist bag with a smile.
Malani nodded earnestly in agreement and enthusiastically suggested, “You make a lot of sense…”
"Mr. Shao Yun, and Sister Xinoning, I have some freshly grilled fish in my backpack. It tastes great. Do you want to share?"
Sinoning shook her head gently. She herself was not hungry now, and she still had some things to deal with.
"No, I plan to go to the blacksmith shop in the Holy Fire Arena to help. In the war with the Abyss, weapons are consumed very quickly. I want to see if I can be of any help."
Shao Yun also politely declined Marani's invitation and said gently: "Thank you for your kindness, Marani, but I'm not hungry now, and I also need help with something."
Seeing that both of them were busy, Malani waved her hand and said goodbye, "Well, good luck to you. I'll take Katsina to get something to eat."
……
After Xinoning, Malani and Kazina left, Shao Yun was thinking about his next move. Suddenly, Yuan Shang's voice sounded in his ears, interrupting his thoughts.
"Mr. Shao Yun! Urgent information!"
Shao Yun was currently within the coverage of the Holy Fire of the Holy Fire Arena. The moment he heard Yuan Shang's voice, he was shocked. Was the Holy Fire extinguished?
"What's going on? Yuanshang, how did you contact me? Could it be that the sacred fire in the Holy Fire Arena has lost its effectiveness?" Shao Yun responded in a low voice to the air in front of him.
The voice from Yuan Shang then explained: "Because the Abyss that invaded Nata was preparing to attack the Holy Fire Arena, the earth veins were disturbed and the Holy Fire was affected."
"The decapitation operation I mentioned to you a few days ago is about to begin!"
When Shao Yun heard that the decapitation operation was about to begin, he hurriedly asked for details.
"How much time do I have to prepare?"
The voice of Yuan Shang gave an approximate time range and replied: "It is estimated that... within ten to twenty minutes... I have seen many monsters and "potted plants" in the Kingdom of Night God now!"
When Shao Yun heard the time range, he immediately reserved ten to twenty minutes for himself to prepare and almost fainted.
"Are you sure you only have so little time to prepare?"
The voice of the abyss replied anxiously: "That's right, you should get ready quickly! This is the action planned by the abyss that invaded Nata, and my intelligence interference has no effect!"
Shao Yun also understood at this moment that blaming Yuan Shang for not giving him more time was not the right way to solve the problem. He turned his attention to the office of conversation.
"Okay, I understand. I'll go inform Mavica right away. I hope everything will be in time."
