Chapter 43: The Last War I

Xiacheng, although it is only a border city, is many times more prosperous than before. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

That's right, even if the Qin State leaves, it is still more prosperous than before.

As for the reason, it is also very simple. That is, in the lower city, there is enough food reserves.

Of course, the so-called grain reserves did not belong to Adeley, but to the various nobles who now ruled the entire lower city.

Although in other parts of Adley, grain is sold at a very high price, it is in the nature of a merchant to pursue profit.

However, the lower city has an excellent urban foundation, and its geographical location means that it is not destined to be drawn into the vortex of war.

Therefore, it is clear that the stability of the lower city is more important than the money earned. After all, everyone sees the Lower City as their last safe haven.

Even though the entire continent has become a miasma because of the Heavenly Master Hall and the church, and the people are struggling to make a living, the lower city is still peaceful, and it has the taste of paradise.

One calm morning, when many business travelers opened their doors to prepare for a new day, there was a slight vibration under their feet.

"Earthquake?"

Many people's minds immediately flashed with such a thought. However, it was quickly dispelled. Because, this so-called earthquake comes quickly, but it comes faster.

"Boom ......"

This time, not only did the earth tremble, but there was even a faint sound.

Many people are starting to get a little nervous.

100 percent of the people who live in the lower city are outsiders. With the exception of a few caravans, most of them were ordinary civilians who were attracted to the city.

On the entire continent, the so-called hometown affection is not as serious as that of the Qin people. However, it does not mean that they are willing to give up the good life in the lower city now.

And that's especially true of the merchants, who have a lot of property here.

"Boom, boom!"

The sound seemed to be getting more and more intense, and the earth trembled more and more often.

"Quick! Gather all the nobles in charge, and get their private soldiers ready at all times! A dignified-looking nobleman almost roared.

The palace that used to be a government has now become a paradise for nobles.

There was an earthquake in the lower city, which can be described as a natural disaster.

If it was in the past, they were not too worried, it was a big deal to repair the house if it was broken, and it was a big deal to recruit people when they died.

However, this is a time of war.

Not to mention the Ardley royal family, even the other nobles are also keeping an eye on every move in the lower city.

Whenever there is the slightest mistake in the lower city, they will be given the opportunity to enter. Therefore, it is not allowed for them to be nobles without worrying.

Soon, before the nobleman's order could be delivered, some of the nobleman's private soldiers had poured out of the palace.

No one is a fool, everyone knows that the key is to stabilize the city now and not give outsiders a chance.

The earth still trembled, and it became more intense each time.

On the streets, it is also extremely slow. Fortunately, the streets of the lower city are wide enough, and even if there are many people, there will not be a place to stay.

Everyone seemed a little worried, afraid that the new home they had saved up with great difficulty would be destroyed.

On the city wall, the soldiers hired by the nobles also looked anxiously at the chaotic city.

Most of them also fled, although they are said to be soldiers, but they have actually fought and killed very few people.

Now, there is chaos in the city, and their families are also in the city, can they not be anxious?

If it weren't for those Shangguan restraining them, I'm afraid they would have run back a long time ago.

Finally, about an hour passed, and the earthquake finally stopped.

Those soldiers on the city wall couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

An hour is not a long time, but for people who are under the fear of natural disasters, it seems to be a bit long.

At this time, the sun also rises to a certain height.

Although spring is approaching, there is still some cold between the earth. At this time, the rising sun was just right to dispel the cold.

Not only physically, but also spiritually, these soldiers rushed to a trace of warmth.

Order in the city was gradually restored under the guidance of the real aristocratic private soldiers. People started their day again in an orderly manner.

On the city wall, the soldiers also looked at the people in the city with great interest, talking and laughing.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, the soldiers, who were still laughing, felt a chill on their backs. The warm sunlight in front of me is also gone.

It seems to be obscured by something.

Cloud?

However, as soon as this idea came to them, they dispelled it.

With a hint of curiosity, many people turned around, but they saw a scene that they would never forget.

The mountain, a huge peak, is slowly emerging from the abyss.

"Evil, demon!"

A heart-rending shout rang out above the city walls.

Hundreds of hired soldiers ran desperately under the city walls.

No one cared about the officers who were on high above them, because, at this moment, they were running away in despair.

The walls of the lower city are very high, however, no matter how high the walls are, they can't cover the huge Lishan Mountain.

"Run! The devil is coming! ”

"The devil is coming!"

The lower city has just been restored, and now it is a mess again. This time, it was even more messy than before.

For all the people rushed to the gates.

Even if the Qin people built the city gate as big as they did, it would not be possible to accommodate so many people at one time.

Therefore, there are countless people who have trampled to death.

Those nobles are also desperate. No one thought that the demon, which had not appeared for almost a thousand years, would come again.

Their wealth, their power, and even their lives seemed shaky at this moment.

Just when everyone was a little desperate, a nobleman with good eyesight suddenly shouted: "Wait! There's something up there! …… It's a palace! The same palace as the lower town! ”

"What!"

Many nobles looked in the direction of the abyss with hope.

The sunlight was a little harsh, but, as the man said, there was something on it, and it seemed to be exactly the same as the architecture of the Qin State.

"Buzz ......"

A buzzing sound rang out in the abyss.

Immediately afterwards, the familiar black giant ship appeared in the eyes of the world again.

One, two, three......

These nobles, as if they were in a state of stupor, did not even run away, just quietly watched the familiar war giants, slowly coming towards the lower city.
