Chapter 1369: One Arrow to Conquer
Murong Feng frowned deeply, and waited silently for a moment before Tyrell's spiritual connection was connected.
"What happened?" Murong Feng immediately asked.
Tyrrell said in a deep voice, "Demons! There are so many demons! Jumped out of nowhere and attacked a group of refugees. β
Murong Feng shook her head speechlessly, but she didn't say anything, because she knew that with Tyrell's character, it was impossible to see death without help.
"Proceed with caution." Murong Feng instructed: "If you encounter a strong enemy, don't be reckless. β
"Yes, my subordinates understand." Tyrrell solemnly replied before cutting off contact.
***
Early the next morning, Murong Feng had just logged in to the game when he heard a commotion on the street outside the window.
When I opened the window, I saw that countless residents were rushing towards the west city gate, as if they were fleeing.
Murong Feng looked puzzled, and said in his heart that the news of the comeback of the King of Sin didn't spread so quickly, right?
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Xiao Er's panicked voice sounded outside the house: "Wake up, guest!" β
"What?" Murong Feng opened the door and asked, "Why is the street full of fleeing people?" β
Xiao Er said with a panicked face: "Guests, hurry up and pack up and leave Wulei City, the army of ghost babies is coming!" It is said that there are millions of them! β
Murong Feng almost listened to the music, he didn't believe in the nonsense of the shopkeeper at all, just with those natives who were still in the primitive society, let alone millions of people, even if there were more than a hundred people, they could only play a swarm of bees. If there are really millions of people, I am afraid that they will be in a mess of their own, let alone effectively organize together to invade in a big way.
Howββ!!!
Suddenly, a roar like a giant beast rang out outside the city, drowning out all the chaotic sounds in the city.
The whole town fell silent for a moment under the roar of the terrifying beast, and then instantly fell into chaos, and everyone on the street immediately rushed to the gate of the west city crying and shouting, causing a huge chaos.
The shopkeeper's face turned white, and he left Murong Feng and turned around and fled.
Murong Feng shook his head speechlessly, came to the window, turned over and jumped on the roof to look at the mountains to the east, and saw a thick dark cloud surging in.
"It's a thick dark spell." Murong Feng looked surprised, he didn't expect that among those natives there were masters who could control the heavens, and it was estimated that they were either ghost babies or ancestral witches.
"It's really troublesome." Murong Feng scratched his head and immediately jumped up and rushed towards the direction of the city.
Suddenly, Murong Feng noticed that not far away, a person was also running on the roof, and that person showed a good light technique while moving and flying.
It's just that Murong Feng restrained his breath, and the man didn't notice that he was being noticed at all, and rushed straight towards the east city gate.
And in the chaotic streets, many groups of adventurers flocked to the East City Gate against the current, not because these people were not afraid of death, but because these people were living a life of licking blood from the knife edge. And war has always been a great opportunity for these adventurers to make a fortune.
At this moment, a series of bowstrings suddenly sounded from the head of the city, and the guards and the invading enemies exchanged fire!
Murong Feng's eyes narrowed, and he immediately jumped onto the top of an arrow tower and looked out of the city.
I saw that the dense forest was pouring out of the black ghost baby native army, millions of people are exaggerated, but there are definitely thousands of people.
The key is that there are several hideous war beasts mixed in these ghost baby armies, and crossbow arrows more than three meters long shoot out of the city, just like toothpicks piercing people.
Bang bang bang!
At this time, several trebuchets located behind the city wall also threw out fire oil one after another, blowing up clouds of fire in the ghost baby army, and instantly burned countless ghost baby natives.
However, at this time, there was a sudden storm above the whole town, and a demonic wind blew, and then a dense acid rain fell.
These acid rains are not very corrosive, but the dripping people are like hot dripping wax, which makes everyone in the city hug their heads for a while. What's worse is that these acid rains will quickly vaporize after landing to form patches of green poisonous mist, and people will fall unconscious if they take a few more breaths.
Murong Feng ignored the acid rain and squinted his eyes at a mountain in the distance. The manipulator of this acid rain hides there and secretly casts spells, but he can't hide her perception!
At this time, the church tower in the city suddenly buzzed, and a pillar of light rose to directly disperse the acid rain clouds, making the city immediately cheer.
But the battle between the two sides has only just begun, and there is no shortage of spellcasters in the city to join the battle, after all, this is a magical world.
Murong Feng has been squatting on the arrow tower to watch the play, quietly paying attention to the fierce offensive and defensive battles below. There have been three groups of archers in the arrow tower below, and they are either exhausted or shot down by those ghost babies and natives with blow arrows comparable to the power of rifles.
The city was already stained red with blood, and the corpses of ghost babies and humans were almost all over the city, but the human soldiers always maintained high morale and showed no signs of retreat.
Murong Feng could smell that those human soldiers were blessed with some kind of powerful invigorating spell, so he was able to sacrifice his life and forget his life to persist until now.
And among them, there was a bare-chested strong man who was particularly eye-catching at the head of the melee, because Murong Feng saw with his own eyes that this strong man actually killed a war beast that climbed up to the city with just two axes, and he was really slammed!
However, the number of the ghost baby army exceeded Murong Feng's expectations, and it kept pouring out of the jungle, at least tens of thousands.
The human defenders have been sharply reduced to less than a thousand, and if it weren't for the high city and the deep ditch, I am afraid it would have fallen long ago.
The defenders of Urey City did not think of burning the dense forest with fire, but the other party obviously had a master of the Great Witch level, and the fire oil poured by the humans would be strangely extinguished as long as it fell into the forest, and it did not raise a single spark.
Murong Feng turned to look in the direction of the West City Gate and found that the crowd of refugees crowded there was almost gone.
It has to be said that the unique geographical location of Oure City made it play a great role in this defense of the city, because the north and south sides of the city are towering mountain peaks. Although the ghost baby army has an absolute advantage in numbers, except for storming the east city gate, it is impossible to outflank and block the retreat of the defenders in the dead city.
Whewββ!
Suddenly, an ear-piercing air attack came, and a white bone spear as thick as a ballista iron spear slammed into Murong Feng's body, directly shattering into a sky of bone slag.
Murong Feng turned his head expressionlessly, stood up and patted the crumbs on his shoulder, and looked coldly at the sneak attacker with a sluggish face.
It's meowing, I was patronizing the play just now, and I was actually provoked by an ant, where is this reasonable.
Murong Feng directly took the compound bow and fired a tracking arrow into the sky.
The flying arrow from the string was like an automatic homing missile, whistling and jumping into the air, turning a corner, heading straight for the ghost baby and witch thousands of kilometers away.
The ghost baby wizard was shocked and hurriedly propped up three huge bone walls in front of him!
In the next second, the sharp arrow roared and directly pierced through three bone walls like paper paste, directly shooting the ghost baby magic witch in the head, and the slimy brain directly splashed the face of the ghost baby guard next to him!
There was a burst of cheers from the top of the castle, and many of the guards noticed that there was such a powerful marksman squatting on the top of the tower.
The key is that this marksman is already a blockbuster if he doesn't make a sound, just waiting for the opponent's powerful wizard to appear and complete the anti-heaven achievement of taking his enemy chief from a distance of a thousand meters!
In fact, these human soldiers were thinking too much at all, and Murong Feng was just unhappy that he was disturbed by someone watching the show.
At this time, a human magician flew up to Murong Feng and saluted respectfully: "Thank you for your help, your merits have been recorded in the City Lord's Mansion, and the City Lord will reward you when the battle is over." β
Murong Feng snorted very coldly with the compound bow, and reminded: "There is more than one wizard among the other party, I have been exposed, I am afraid that other wizards will not dare to show up easily." β
The magician said with admiration: "Your Excellency's killing of the enemy with one arrow and severely demoralizing those ghost babies is more effective than killing countless pawns. β
Murong Feng was cheeky and said lightly: "The other party has retreated." β
Sure enough, after Murong Feng shot the ghost baby in the head with an arrow, the ghost baby army immediately attacked and retreated into the dense forest. But Murong Feng could sense that the ghost baby witch who could manipulate the heavens was still nesting on that mountain, obviously the other party had not given up, and it was estimated that he was regaining his morale and preparing to make a comeback at any time.
The magician breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately asked Murong Feng politely, "Dare to ask Your Excellency's name?" Where did you come from? β
"Month, a traveler." Murong Feng was concise and to the point, deliberately maintaining his cold image, and deliberately concealing his origin, after all, you can't say that you are the Great Demon King from hell.
"Month?" The magician was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Now that the war is resting for a while, please also ask Your Excellency Yue to follow me to the City Lord's Mansion, the City Lord must be very welcome to a master like you to visit Oulei City." β
"Okay." Murong Feng didn't refuse, and he also thought that after meeting the locals here for a while, he might be able to find out the news of the Nephiten clan.
Murong Feng directly turned around and jumped down from the top of the arrow tower dozens of meters above the ground, causing an exclamation.
However, under the watchful eye, Murong Feng actually fell to the ground lightly, without even bringing up a little dust.
The magician who flew down immediately looked at Murong Feng with a hint of awe in his eyes, at least he couldn't jump from such a high place without the help of a flying spell without a trace of fireworks.
"This way, please." The magician walked a few steps quickly to lead the way, and Murong Feng nodded and followed him to the tallest building in the city, the City Lord's Mansion.
When the magician led Murong Feng into the hall of the City Lord's Mansion, he found that there were already a lot of people gathered here, several generals wearing armor and carrying swords, seven strange people wearing black cloaks and hats, a female magician and an extremely burly strong man, and another strange man standing in the corner who seemed to merge with the shadows.
As soon as Murong Feng came in, he was greeted by everyone's attention.
"It's her!" The strong man muttered first, his eyes a little afraid to look at Murong Feng.
The magician who led Murong Feng into the door took her to an empty seat and sat down, and ordered the waiter to serve tea before retiring to invite the city lord.
The hall fell silent for a moment before the noise returned, especially the loudest of the generals, who seemed to be arguing over whether to stay on hold or retreat immediately.
The seven strange men in black hats sat quietly and did not communicate with others, like clay and wood sculptures.
The female magician had been looking at Murong Feng curiously, and then muttered a few words to the strong man next to her from time to time.
As for the guy hiding in the corner, he is probably about to be forgotten by everyone.
Murong Feng drank tea by himself, when he heard a sound of footsteps coming from the backyard.
Then an old man with white hair walked out of the back hall with a middle-aged man with a black face and a sallow face.
Several generals hurriedly stopped arguing and saluted: "See the city lord, I have seen the great sage." β
The sorceress and the strong man also got up and saluted slightly, and then the seven black hats also stood up and saluted, and the guy in the corner seemed to be asleep and did not move.
Murong Feng didn't move, just sat and looked at the sick city lord curiously.
City Lord Hohenheim didn't mind Murong Feng's attitude, anyway, he had seen a lot of strange-tempered masters, so he just waved his hand and said weakly: "Everyone, please take a seat." Then he sat down on the main seat with the support of the great sage, and said slowly: "This time Oulei City was able to survive the catastrophe, thanks to the great help of all the warriors here. β
Immediately, two guards took out a large box and opened it, and the house was immediately filled with golden light.
But none of the people present took a second look, because the battle exploits had already been recorded, and the amount of bounty each person had already been determined.
Several guards stepped forward to offer bounties for each of the present, and the generals each received more than 100 gold coins, while the seven hat monsters each received more than 300 gold coins, the female magician and the strong man each received more than 500 gold coins, and the guy in the corner actually got more than 1,000 gold coins.
But when he arrived at Murong Feng, he directly divided half a box of gold coins, at least more than three thousand, and several huge gems.
But no one in the room objected, as if it should be.
After all, Murong Feng's earth-shattering arrow was in everyone's eyes, if she hadn't shot that ghost baby witch with one arrow, and let the other party get close to the city wall and calmly cast spells, I'm afraid that Wulei City would have been lost long ago. Therefore, in the eyes of everyone, Murong Feng was definitely a great meritorious, but this made Murong Feng a little embarrassed.
After the reward for meritorious deeds, the city lord Hohenheim spoke again: "This time the ghost baby alien race is really abnormal, in the past, Oulei City would retreat on its own as long as it withstood the opponent's attack, but today the other party has attacked for a whole day and has not retreated, obviously there must be some variables behind this!" β
The city lord Hohenheim looked at the guy in the corner, and saw that the strange man closed his eyes and said lightly: "Yesterday, a ghost baby village with a population of nearly 3,000 people was slaughtered in the depths of the black forest!" According to my on-the-spot investigation, more than 3,000 ghost babies in the whole village should have died at the hands of one person! β
