Chapter 8: The Lord of Steel City
Unzen Town, one of the 108 Great Walls of Steel.
Steel City is majestic and huge, and every steel city is built in preparation for war.
The Steel Gate is divided into 4 directions: East Gate, South Gate, West Gate, and North Gate. Each steel gate is composed of a mixture of extraterrestrial meteorite and King Kong, weighing thousands of catties, extremely strong, and each city wall is made of steel, thus constructing the entire steel city. In the event of war, the Steel City is not only offensive and defensible, but also a large shelter, and it is almost impossible to break through a Great Wall of Steel with manpower.
Every Great Wall of Steel has one of the most powerful people: the City Lord. and the most powerful force guarding the Great Wall of Steel: the 108th Team of the Department of Foreign Affairs.
After thousands of years, the Great Wilderness has long since faded from the title of barbarian. 'Wu' is no longer the only force in the Great Wilderness, and the rise of 'Wen' has put the Great Wilderness in a state of balance.
'Civil-military dual governance' is a concept put forward by the previous generation of Aragami and tried out, and the final effect is that the Great Wilderness is getting stronger and stronger. Up to now, Aragami is vigorously promoting 'cultural governance' and protecting the country with force.
Therefore, most of the current steel city lords are 'literary' people, and the corresponding core force of each steel city is: the Department of Foreign Affairs.
At this time, the steel center city, in the main hall.
An old man with gray hair sat on the top of the main hall, holding a proclamation in his hand and reading it carefully, occasionally brushing his long beard.
"Hey, I'm really old, and my back hurts when I sit down" The old man finally put down the notice in his hand and hammered his back with his back.
This person is none other than Fu Ming, the city lord of the Steel City of Yunxian Town!!
"I don't know what makes the rich old man so worried" Peng Wanli, the captain of the Foreign Affairs Department, had been standing under the main hall, and when he saw the city lord's frowns, he asked respectfully.
In fact, the city lord is not yet old, but he is already full of gray hair, and his whole face is wrinkled, which looks very vicissitudes.
18 years ago, Yunxian Town was once broken, and the city lord at that time, Fu Ming, took the lead, although he was a literati, but he also held a long sword to kill the enemy. And that was as the captain of the escort team, that is, Fu Ming's biological son, desperately guarded, and finally fought a bloody way, and Fu Ming was fortunate to save a life. The final result of Yunxian Town was that the escort team was wiped out, and the residents were killed and injured countless times, and Fuming not only lost the city overnight, but also destroyed his family, which led to Fuming's white head overnight.
"Today's Aragami is working hard, after 18 years of reconstruction, there are now 108 Great Walls of Steel, and with the most powerful guardian force of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, war, war"
The city lord Fuming kept sighing, I don't know whether he was talking to himself or to His Highness's people.
"The Nine Great Thrones of the year, one person came out of the wind and clouds, how powerful the Great Wilderness was to be, not to mention that there was one of the most powerful Wild Gods. And the war broke out, and in a few months, the entire Great Wilderness Domain fell apart, only one of the Nine Great Thrones remained, and even the Wild God disappeared, everything happened too fast" The city lord Fu Ming kept saying, very emotional.
"Now Aragami has decreed: the nine thrones have been changed to thirteen thrones, and the battle for the throne has been changed from 10 years to 5 years, and Aragami has specially explained that the age must be under 26 years old" The city lord Fuming stopped talking to himself and looked at a large group of people under His Highness.
"City Lord, Yunxian Town has gone through a hundred ruins to be rebuilt, and now it has a population of nearly one million, and there are hundreds of thousands between the ages of 16 and 26.
His Highness was a middle-aged man who was very thin, but his eyes were bright.
"Xuefeng, explain it, this is a grand event in the entire Great Wilderness Region, I hope that all the children can become dragons and phoenixes among people" City Lord Fuming responded to the man.
Wu Xuefeng, the chief housekeeper of Yunxian Town, now all the big and small matters in Yunxian Town are handled by him.
"City Lord rest assured, our sons and daughters of Yunxian Town will not let us down" Wu Xuefeng said confidently, very respectful to City Lord Fu Ming.
"Good" Fu Ming responded, a rare smile on his face.
"City Lord, there is one more thing" Wu Xuefeng saw the smile on the face of the city lord, and he was very happy in his heart, since the beginning of Yunxian Town, Wu Xuefeng has followed Fu Ming, the city lord has suffered all these years, how can Wu Xuefeng not know.
"Say it"
"A man came out of the army this year, named Ma Rufan, who has challenged various towns and cities, and has not seen a single defeat, and has submitted the challenge book" After Wu Xuefeng finished speaking, he immediately stepped forward and took out the challenge book, slowly opened it and handed it to the city lord Fu Ming.
"Is it another year" The city lord Fuming was very emotional.
"Last year, the four people who were challenged in Yunxian Town were all defeated, and this time, there is only one person on the challenge list, it is a woman, this woman's name is Liu Qianxue, and she is the eldest daughter of a fortune teller Liu Daoming."
Wu Xuefeng went on to say:
"This woman has only emerged in the past year, and last year she entered Yunxian Mountain and killed several desolate beasts, so she gradually became famous."
"Very well, you will tell the matter yourself" The city lord Fu Ming stroked his long beard.
"Yes, City Lord" Wu Xuefeng finished speaking and stood aside.
"Wanli, listen to what you said last time, Yunxian Mountain is suspected to have traces of the remnants of the Great Sacred Domain" City Lord Fu Ming turned to the topic and looked at Peng Wanli of His Highness.
"The city lord, it has been ascertained, it is a person from the Imperial Beast Sect," Peng Wanli said respectfully.
"It's up to you to do it" City Lord Fu Ming waved his hand at Peng Wanli.
"Yes" Seeing this, Peng Wanli also stepped back and said no more.
"Stand down, let me be alone for a while" City Lord Fuming leaned back on the big chair, his eyes slightly closed.
Seeing this, His Highness's people slowly walked out without making a sound.
At this time, Fu Ming still had the appearance of a city lord, leaning lazily on the big chair, he believed that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs could handle the arrival of the people of the Great Sacred Domain, but this matter also made him fall into his own memories.
"Fu Lao, you are more than 20 years older than me, it's good for me to call you that" On top of a glorious hall, a man in his thirties smiled at Fu Ming and said.
"Aragami said okay, I don't mind selling an old one" Tomaki smiled all over his face, and he was very happy in his heart.
"Hahahaha" The man in front of him laughed with Tomiaki.
"When the rich old man was thirty years old, he took over as the city lord of Yunxian Town, when Yunxian Town was still just a small mountain village, now it has been more than 20 years, Yunxian Town is already a big city, I believe that Yunxian Town has a rich old man sitting in the town, and the people will be rich and healthy, and there will be Lao Fu Lao to worry about building a majestic giant city again" The man clasped Fu Ming's hands and said with a smile.
"Thanks to the strong support of the Aragami, there is now a prosperous town in Yunxian Town, I believe that soon, there will be a fifth giant city in our Great Wilderness Region" How high-spirited and confident Fu Ming was at the beginning.
"I'm ashamed of Aragami, I'm ashamed" Fu Ming, who was sitting on the chair in the main hall, tears from the corners of his eyes continued to flow downward.
......
At this time, Yunxian Town, inside the Great Wall of Steel, in the council chamber.
"Captain, the movement of Yunxian Mountain this morning has been ascertained, a young man entered Yunxian Mountain in the morning, was chased and killed by the desolate beast tiger tooth wolf, and after straying into the depths of Yunxian Mountain, he was chased and killed by several desolate beasts, and the young man finally escaped from Yunxian Mountain after nine deaths," Xie Qinghai reported.
"Oh, who can survive from the mouth of the tiger-toothed wolf, and escape from several wild beasts, who is this young man" Peng Wanli became interested.
"Wasteland, is a son named Liu Daoming, the second in the family. Xie Qinghai said.
"It's Liu Daoming again, interesting, wasteland, surnamed Huang?" Peng Wanli asked.
"Yes, their family is strange, the eldest is called Liu Qianxue, the second is called Wasteland, and the third is called Phantom Moon"
"I'd like to meet that Liu Daoming"
"Do you need me to arrange it?" Xie Qinghai asked seriously.
"Ah, ha, no, no, let's get down to business" Peng Wanli said haha.
"This morning, a young man wasteland entered Yunxian Mountain and was chased by a tiger-toothed wolf and was chased and killed by several wild beasts in the back, and the back of several wild beasts obviously had great concerns, otherwise it would be impossible not to leave a teenager, according to the situation at the scene, the tiger-toothed wolf has seriously injured the young wasteland on the periphery, and the trajectory of the young man's escape from the depths should be that he should have strayed into the territory of the old sand crocodile: the land of extreme immortals."
"He was able to go deep into the Land of Extreme Immortals?"
"Yes, that's the problem, there have been fewer and fewer desolate beasts outside the Extreme Immortal Land these days, and after the people sent out this morning checked it, there is no trace of the desolate beasts outside the Extreme Immortal Land. It should be to avoid making too much noise and startling the snake."
"What they're afraid of is that they will startle our big snake," Peng Wanli said domineeringly.
"So, when that young wasteland fled from the inside to the outside, those wild beasts didn't chase too closely, and they gave up when they got close to the periphery, and that group of wild beasts should be the wild beasts domesticated by the Royal Beast Sect itself," Xie Qinghai analyzed.
"Looks like they're ready to get moving"
"Just in the near future"
"By the way, if they came for some desolate beast last time, what could it be?" Peng Wanli continued to ask.
"Well, captain, this is more troublesome, and there are thousands of desolate beasts in the entire Yunxian Mountain, we are short of manpower, so we don't dare to go too deep at all, and the IQ of the desolate beasts is not low, it is difficult to investigate and count them one by one" Xie Qinghai said with an embarrassed expression.
"Is it difficult?" Peng Wanli asked with a smile.
"Captain, if we all have the strength of your ability to enter and exit in Yunxian Mountain, why should we be so troublesome, if we find a problem, we will directly go to the land of extreme immortals and beat up the old sand crocodile, let it be honest, and ensure that Yunxian Mountain will be quiet and safe from now on" Xie Qinghai smiled bitterly.
"Then forget it, inform Yuan Lao and Mu Qing separately, and let them go to Yunxian Mountain from now on to keep an eye on" Peng Wanli directly gave an order.
"Okay, I'll let you know as soon as there is something."
"By the way, also, let Huanhuan girl keep an eye on the movement of Steel City at all times, and don't let down your vigilance, if you are made a noise by those rats at that time, it won't be fun."
"Captain, don't worry, with Bai Xuehuan's temperament, even if she eats and sleeps, she will never let a fly fly over the steel city."
"I just like the personality of my Huanhuan girl, haha" Peng Wanli said with a smile.
