Chapter 44: The War Begins

Returning to the restaurant, in the room of Ye Mo's brothers and sisters. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Brother, when did you say the dean would come back?" Ye Yu hugged the pillow on the bed and muttered quietly.

"Even if you ask me, I don't know..."Ye Mo answered his sister's question while reading the book.

It was getting dark outside, and it was already evening.

Ye Yu saw that his brother was immersed in the book, so he stopped bothering and meditated silently. The book Ye Mo read was a book about the folklore of the Western Continent.

"It's ridiculous that the reason for the war that the Western Continent launched two hundred years ago turned out to be a holy war." Ye Mo shook his head, he remembered the Crusades of the Middle Ages in his previous life.

"Theocratic country..."Ye Mo looked out the window, "That girl should be a god at the beginning." Ye Mo remembered the girl who gave him a new life at that time, and was full of mysteries.

"But, why did you give me this opportunity..."Ye Mo muttered.

Looking at his sister Ye Yu, Ye Mo was full of gratitude to that mysterious girl. However, this question still bothered Ye Mo.

"Are there any other people who have crossed this world?" this is also the question in Ye Mo's heart. In addition, the god of the Western Continent is that girl? ”

"Speaking of which, Xiao Yu has never heard of a holy level cultivator who has become a god?" Ye Mo asked out loud.

Ye Yu withdrew from the meditative state, thought about it carefully, and then shook his head: "I don't know, at least there is no record of this in the books I have read." ”

"I don't have either, it seems that the Holy Rank is the pinnacle of cultivation."

"Maybe the level of a god can't be cultivated to attain." Ye Yu said.

"Ah, that's too far away for us." Ye Mo sighed self-deprecatingly. "We're only level 4, and we can only touch the threshold of the holy rank when we cultivate to level 9, it's still early."

Ye Yu lightly jumped out of bed and stretched, then turned his head to look at Ye Mo: "Brother, let's go out for a walk." ”

Ye Mo was stunned: "Didn't Dean Siyou not let us run around." ”

"Just walk around the city," Ye Yu muttered dissatisfiedly, "It's not interesting to sit here." ”

"And, ah, I want to see the scenery from the city walls."

Ye Mo looked out the window at the sun that was sinking to the horizon and the red glow in the sky, and he was also a little moved, and after thinking about it, he made a decision.

"Let's go!" Ye Mo got up: "Do you still need to call Liang Tianwei?" ”

"No, just the two of us," Ye Yu put on his shoes and walked straight out of the door.

Ye Mo also hurriedly followed.

The streets of the border city were unusually deserted, and there was an air of slaughter. The brother and sister felt that the atmosphere was a little oppressive when they walked side by side on the street, and the feeling they felt in the border city now was completely different from that in the afternoon.

After a while, the brother and sister walked under the city wall, looking at the majestic city wall, Ye Mo's heart was a little more comforted: "At least the empire has put a lot of effort into the defense of the frontier. ”

Ye Mo pulled Ye Yu and walked along the city wall, looking for the stairs to go up the city wall. They hadn't gone far before a soldier-like figure came up to them and stopped them.

"Please stop! The lord of the castle is ordering martial law, the city wall is a military location, and it is forbidden for idle people to approach! The soldier stood straight and straight, looking at Ye Mo without squinting. The words were full of the resoluteness and seriousness of the soldiers, and there was no expression of pride and contempt for the two children.

Ye Mo secretly praised the military appearance of the border city in his heart, so he also made a solemn face, took out the magician badge he had just obtained and handed it over: "Our brother and sister are all intermediate magicians certified by the Imperial Magic Union, and we want to visit the lower city wall." ”

The soldier took a look at the badge, and after confirming the authenticity, he gave a military salute to Ye Mo, and then raised his head and said to Ye Mo: "It turned out to be two magicians, it's rude." But a military order is a military order, so please go back. ”

Then he handed the badge back to Ye Mo, and said in a low voice: "You two might as well go to the City Lord's Hall to meet the City Lord, in this special period, the City Lord will definitely not refuse." ”

Ye Mo was stunned for a moment and took the badge. He thanked the soldier, and then pulled Ye Yu away.

The soldier gave another military salute and left.

"Brother?" Ye Yu watched without making a sound just now, and waited until Ye Mo pulled her away before asking, "Where are you going now?" ”

"City Lord's Mansion." Ye Mo replied without looking back: "That soldier said that during the special period... What other special periods can there be in the border city? ”

Ye Yu also reacted immediately: "Brother, you said you want..."

"Well, so I'm going to the City Lord's Mansion to ask for clarification."

Inside the Castle Lord's Mansion.

"I've ordered the villagers outside the city to bring only the fine soft into the city." The city lord said.

"The scout came to report that the Western Army was only ten miles away from the city. This was information from half an hour ago. Commander He Ping drew on the sand table in the center of the hall, and several red arrows appeared, as if they were going to hug the border city tightly and swallow it in one gulp.

Martial law is already under fire inside the city, and the villagers outside the city may not be able to make time..."He Ping continued.

"If it's really too late, there's no way." The lord of the city said solemnly: "You can't put the lives of the soldiers and civilians in the city at risk because of the kindness of the woman. What's more, the border city must not be lost! ”

The atmosphere in the hall became serious, and it was at this moment.

"Lord of the Castle!" A servant from the City Lord's Mansion knelt on one knee under the steps outside the hall.

"Speak." The city lord still looked at the sand table and did not raise his head.

"There are two mid-level magicians who are not very old and ask to see the city lord." The maid continued to report.

"Oh? Could it be..."Si You seemed to think of something.

"Magician? Let them in. The city lord thought about it for a moment and replied.

"Yes!" The servant withdrew

After a while, he led Ye Moye to the front of the city lord's hall.

"My lord, the magician has brought it." The servant was on one knee again and spoke.

Ye Mo pulled Ye Yu to perform a magician's etiquette.

"Stand down. Please come into the hall to speak. The city lord stood facing Ye Mo and the others. The servant withdrew,

Ye Moye Yu walked up the steps into the city lord's hall, and saw the master sitting on the side at first glance.

"Dean, you're really here." Ye Yu's tone was a little dissatisfied.

"yes. I just told me who it was, and it turned out to be you two little guys. Why, I don't think the inn is good, do you want to live in the city lord's mansion? Si You squinted his eyes and teased.

"These two are students of Master Siyou?" The city lord looked at Si You.

"Makes you smile." Si You said with a smile.

"No, the students of the Purple Sun Demon Martial Academy are really as young and promising as rumored. At a young age, he already has an intermediate level of cultivation, and he must have a bright future. The city lord politely said a few words, but there was a sense of pity in his eyes.

"The lord of the castle has said it." Ye Mo owes himself.

"Then what do you two have to find the city lord?" Seeing that Si You didn't seem to be involved, the city lord picked up the city lord majesty again and asked.

"Lord City, is the Empire going to war with the Western Continent?" Ye Mo went straight to the point.

The city lord nodded, "Eighty percent sure." ”

"Dare to ask how the garrison in the city is?"

The city lord raised his eyebrows and looked at the Si You next to him. Si You nodded at him.

"There are three thousand garrisons in the city, and a team of intermediate magicians, a total of twelve people. The high-level magician alone is me. The commander of the He Ping Legion is an eighth-level swordsman. In addition, there is also the master of the tour. ”

Ye Mo took a cool breath: "With all due respect..."

"Indeed, the army is pressing, and it is true that 3,000 men cannot hold it for a few days. The mage's power is too weak. Commander He Ping next to him said in a deep voice.

Ye Mo nodded, "In that case, I implore the City Lord to incorporate me into the city defense army." ”

"City Defense? As a mage, that squad-mage should be a better fit for you. He Ping was a little puzzled when he heard this.

"Also, this is war, not child's play." The lord of the castle said.

"Since he said so, it means that he is mentally prepared." Si You interjected, and the eyes of several people converged on Si You, "In addition, he is a qualified archer. The girl standing behind him was a therapist. I think it's all the talents you are in desperate need. I also had one student who didn't come. It's very meager, but it can also help you. ”

Ye Mo gave Si You a grateful look. Ye Yu frowned, but she obviously knew that now was not the time to lose her temper, so she just listened quietly.

"Since Master Si You said so." The city lord nodded, "Please be careful." ”

"Someone!"

"In!"

At this moment, though.

"Report!" A soldier in light armor ran to the front of the hall panting, "Praise! The ground fell to one knee with a thud.

"The enemy army has begun to attack the western wall! The city gate is closed, the enemy attack is not strong, only the forward is not right, there are not many siege equipment, but..."

"But what!" He Ping said sharply.

"Your Excellency! Villagers outside the city! I didn't have time..."

He Ping hammered the sand table hard, "Take me to the west city wall!" ”

Si You stood up, his face was not very good, "I haven't touched the Holy Order for a long time." There was a bit of murderous intent in his tone.

"War... Here we go! ”

At this moment, these five words echoed in Ye Mo's mind.
