"They call it a wood raft, but Ding Huan had actually just found a wooden plank over a meter long to use as a foothold for leverage."
"This thing is lightweight and convenient, as long as he exerted True Yuan beneath his feet, the plank would shoot forward rapidly."
"For Ding Huan, this was much more convenient than a small boat."
"Arriving at the Protection Wall, what surprised Ding Huan was that there were still Fierce Beasts charging at the defense line."
"Could this be a suicide mission?"
"Just as Ding Huan thought, these Fierce Beasts hadn’t even reached the foot of the steel city wall before being killed by the Federation Soldiers."
"This was somewhat abnormal, the Fierce Beasts also have intelligence, why would they come here to die?"
"Ding Huan was very puzzled, there must be some situation."
"As he was thinking about asking someone, he turned his head and saw a woman in Federation Army uniform quickly approaching him."
"Ding Huan knew this woman, named Fan Yibing, from the Federation Army, and she was carrying a great spear over ten feet long in her hand."
"As for her other identity, Ding Huan did not know, but since this woman could promise to forge a spear for him, she must hold some position."
"Ding Huan’s gaze, however, fell on the great spear in Fan Yibing’s hand, he thought to himself, could it be that this woman’s weapon was a great spear? This was somewhat similar to the long spear he wanted."
"Mr. Ding, are you planning to leave here now to search for the Demon Dragon?"
Fan Yibing hurriedly asked as she approached.
Ding Huan nodded,
"Yes, I was just planning to go down and take a look, but I feel the hope of finding it is not very high."
Without delay, Fan Yibing said,
"Mr. Ding, I was formerly the commander of the Federation Army’s Seventh Army. Now, I am the temporary commander as well as the temporary overall in charge of the human corridor defense."
Everything was temporary, and Ding Huan understood that this woman had taken over the role formerly held by Gu Zhong.
Thinking of the previous Federation Army Commander, Hu Jiatian, Ding Huan felt that not everyone was like Gu Zhong.
Fan Yibing’s willingness to meet his request indicated that this woman was very concerned about the human corridor defense line and even the future of Earth.
Such a person would be much better as the commander than Gu Zhong had been.
"Commander Fan, did you stop me to say something?" Ding Huan asked.
New novel 𝓬hapters are published on freёwebnoѵel.com.
Fan Yibing hummed affirmatively,
"Mr. Ding, I suspect that in a little while, a new beast tide will surge forth.
And it is led by that Demon Dragon, I’m almost certain of it."
"Oh, tell me more."
Ding Huan suddenly became interested.
Fan Yibing explained,
"After the first breach of the human corridor defense line, almost no Fierce Beasts stayed here.
After all, this place is entirely made of steel, and the Fierce Beasts can neither cultivate nor get supplies from the forest here."
Ding Huan did not interject, which was very normal. The Fierce Beasts weren’t stupid enough to stay on a steel city wall.
Fan Yibing must have had a reason to say this.
Fan Yibing continued,
"But after our Federation Army rebuilt the human corridor defense line for the second time, everything began to change.
The first day was okay, on the second day about a dozen Fierce Beasts came to charge the defense line to die. On the third day, there were over a hundred, and now there are thousands charging."
"I suspect these Fierce Beasts are commanded by the Great Fierce Beast, with the purpose of probing the true strength of the human corridor defense line.
So I believe we have at most a week before a large-scale beast tide will break out here, potentially even stronger than the first."
Looking at the Fierce Beasts killed below, Ding Huan felt that Fan Yibing was right.
He had just been wondering why the Fierce Beasts would come to die.
"You’re right. In that case, I won’t go down today. I’ll wait here."
Ding Huan agreed with Fan Yibing’s words.
The chance of finding the Demon Dragon if he went down was very slim, almost negligible.
Just like if he were to hide, the Demon Dragon wouldn’t be able to find him either.
Seeing Ding Huan agree with her, Fan Yibing was very pleased,
"Mr. Ding, twelve years ago, a piece of Meteorite Iron fell in the desert.
Later this piece of iron was collected by the International Museum, this Meteorite Iron should be exceptional material for weapon forging, it’s just very difficult to smelt.
If you want, Mr. Ding, I can have someone bring it here."
Ding Huan was overjoyed,
"Great, I want it, please arrange for it to be transported here."
Before obtaining the Sumeru Space, Ding Huan couldn’t have been so sure.
Now with the Sumeru Space, if he truly couldn’t forge it into a spear, he would just store it in the Sumeru Space for the time being.
"This great spear was found by General Hu in a ruin, I see you are without a weapon now, so take this for the time being."
Fan Yibing handed over the great spear to Ding Huan.
After a brief exchange, Fan Yibing felt that Ding Huan was not as difficult to talk to as Zhong Chi had described.
On the contrary, he was quite amiable.
As long as Ding Huan stayed here, the human corridor defense line was unlikely to be breached this time.
Ding Huan’s strength was definitely the strongest she had ever seen, bar none.
If even Ding Huan couldn’t defeat the Demon Dragon, it would simply mean that Earth’s fate had come to an end, and humanity’s extinction was inevitable.
Because using nuclear bombs against such a Demon Dragon was simply a joke.
Ding Huan hadn’t expected that Fan Yibing intended the great spear for his use, he quickly took it with thanks,
"Thank you very much, this will be useful to me, I’m in need of a weapon."
Seeing Ding Huan accept, Fan Yibing was even more relieved,
"Alright, Mr. Ding, I’ll go arrange a place for you to stay."
Now that Ding Huan had taken the weapon, he was unlikely to leave just like that.
"There’s no need for that, I’ll cultivate on my Blue Star, and I can see if the defense line is in urgent need. Don’t worry, I always honor my promises."
