Chapter 114 God Will Not Bless Our Dayan City Military Region...
Xu Yan could understand the name Kadalu Tribe, but he had no idea where it was, let alone where the underground palace entrance might be.
If these not-so-bright children could lead him there, that would be a real stroke of genius.
---
Seven or eight wizard children, struggling under the weight of a large incubator, began walking toward the Kadalu Tribe.
Xu Yan waved at them from behind.
"Go, go! You're doing great!"
The moment they disappeared into the distance—
Xu Yan's figure vanished as if he had never been there.
---
The children, oblivious, happily carried the incubator forward.
---
"That big brother Brian is such a good wizard."
"He was seriously injured, lost his memory, but still remembered to offer tributes to the gods!"
"He even risked his life on the front lines to get these tributes."
"If his story spreads, it should be turned into a song and sung by everyone!"
"Yes! He is a role model for us all!"
"When I grow up, I want to be a great wizard like him!"
"Me too!"
---
The children worshipped Brian.
But little did they know—
Brian was Xu Yan in disguise.
And right now, he was quietly tailing them, along with Xu Ying, Gao Yang, and Feng Wu.
---
"This is insane."
Gao Yang whispered in the group chat.
"Xu Yan just bribed a bunch of wizard kids with food... and got the coordinates of the Voodoo Dragon's lair."
"Yep."
"Absolute genius."
"If Xu Yan makes a move, the problem is as good as solved."
---
Xu Yan felt slightly embarrassed hearing the kids praise him.
But he thought—
In a few days, their "god" will be my mount.
I deserve this small compliment.
---
If the Voodoo Clan survives in the future…
They might carve my name into their history.
Etch my story onto their sacred stones…
And pass it down for thousands of generations…

Baitan City Combat Command Center
A newly updated list was published on the military's official website.
It contained:
1. Names of fallen soldiers.
2. List of captured soldiers.
---
Over 1,000 fallen.
More than 600 captured.
---
It was not a list of glory.
But the top brass of Baitan City's Military Region decided—
It must be published.
---
Why?
Because this wasn't just a war.
This was a crisis that could wipe out Baitan City.
They needed support from other military regions—
Even if it meant making their desperate situation public.
---
But the problem was clear—
Even with reinforcements, Baitan City might still fall.
And if it did, no one could predict the aftermath.
---
Dayan City Military Region
When the Dayan City Military Region saw the list—
They immediately checked two names:
1. Xu Yan
2. Gao Yang
---
Good news:
Xu Yan, Gao Yang, Bai Ding, and Wang Ke all passed the recruit assessment.
They were now official soldiers.
---
Bad news:
All four of them had been captured by the half-human wizards.
They were taken to the Voodoo Clan's base camp.
Their survival was unknown.
---
The Military's Reaction
The soldiers of the Dayan City Military Region felt a deep sorrow.
They all knew—
Once you were captured and taken to the Voodoo Clan's headquarters…
It was as good as being dead.
---
"Damn it! How many years has it been since we had a good recruit?"
"We finally get someone like Xu Yan, and before we can even train him, he's gone!"
---
"I said from the start—sending them to the recruit assessment so soon was a mistake!"
"They were too low-leveled!"
"Now look! They saw the world… but they also lost their lives!"
---
A senior officer sighed heavily.
"Xu Yan was a damn good one."
"If he had just survived a few more years, he could've topped the rankings."
---
Another officer shook his head.
"God doesn't bless the Dayan City Military Region."
---
District Chief Ding's Rage
District Chief Ding read the report and—
Slapped the table.
"That damn brat!"
"Didn't we agree that he'd stay low during the assessment!?"
"Didn't he say he wouldn't make a move!?"
"Now look! Not only did he pass… HE GOT HIMSELF CAPTURED!?"
---
Ding grabbed his phone.
Dialed.
---
"Chief Wang! What about a rescue mission?"
"Possible, but not now."
"What do you mean, 'not now'!?"
---
"Two waves of beasts are attacking at the same time."
"The second counterattack is still ongoing."
"And the third wave—led by the wizard army—is incoming."
---
"Damn it… can you even hold Baitan City?"
"I don't know."
"We're asking for reinforcements everywhere."
"Can Dayan send more people?"
---
"We already sent 100! That's our limit!"
"Then it's not enough."
"...!"
---
A Final Warning
Chief Ding immediately called the support team that had been deployed.
---
"Xiao Wu! Listen carefully!"
"Baitan City is doomed."
"No one is allowed to be a hero!"
"If things look bad—EVACUATE IMMEDIATELY!"
"Do not sacrifice your lives for a lost city!"
"Do you hear me!?"
---
A long silence.
Then—
"Understood, sir."
---
The Reality of War
Ding hung up the phone.
Sat in silence.
Clenched his fists.
---
Xu Yan was gone.
And if things went bad—
Those 100 reinforcements would be gone too.
If that happened—
The Dayan City Military Region would be finished.
And there was nothing he could do to stop it.
---
"Damn it…"
"God really doesn't bless us."
