Chapter 349: The Inner and Outer Cities of the Royal City
The area of the royal city is not small, and as the city where the royal family of a country is located, it will naturally not be small. Not only that, but it is also the architectural specification of a city within a city, divided into an inner city and an outer city.
In the inner city, it is naturally a noble place where all the children of the royal family, as well as their power, status, and wealth, have reached the top of the ladder before they can enter and live.
The Tower of Glory, located in the inner city, was the only place where the king and a very small number of people were allowed to enter, the iconic royal city buildings. Ordinary ministers and wealthy people, no matter how high their status, would not even have the qualifications to approach without the king's permission.
In the past, those who had the privilege of entering the Tower of Glory were all in power, fame, wealth, and status, and had reached a very high position before they were eligible to be invited to meet with the king and discuss affairs.
That's also, the closest position to the pinnacle of royal power. Every king in the past, before sitting on the throne, would sit at the highest place there for several days before ascending to the highest throne.
It can be said that because of the existence of the Tower of Glory, there has never been any force that subverts the royal power and rebels in the kingdom. Even if there are some underground forces, it is not a climate, and it is extremely difficult to affect the change of royal power. This situation was until three years ago, when the Zerg natural disaster.
In the inner city, in addition to the Tower of Glory, there is also the palace where the king lives, the mansion close to the royal family, and the courtyard where the ministers and the top nobles live and rest.
The king's army, which guarded the inner city, was always armed with 6,000 men, guarding the entrances and exits of the inner city. The uninterrupted patrol along the city wall almost all day and all night also made the defense force of the inner city reach an extremely strong level.
The area of the inner city alone is the size of most of the main city of Srokroda. There, in addition to the mansions of the top rich and noble, there are also ten thousand gardens, hunting grounds, and all kinds of places where the sons and daughters of rich and noble families can go to relax and play.
In the outer city, in addition to the garrison of more than 10,000 people, there are also tens of thousands of security forces. Unlike the inner city, there was more powerful gunpowder for forts at the gates of the outer city and outside the city gates.
It's a megacity, big enough for five or six million people to live in. And regardless of the inner city, just the fighting rings, hunting grounds, flower streets and wine alleys in the outer city, all kinds of entertainment and leisure places, even those rich and noble children who live in the inner city often linger here. Among them, there are elegant people, famous and noble, leaving a period of good stories. But there's also a lot of darkness and filth there, but it's just little known.
And now, the royal city of this super city is no longer as prosperous as it used to be. The successive arrival of the Zerg and the Black Sea Clan caused the royal city to suffer unimaginable disasters and destruction.
Outside the city, you can see all kinds of blood stains mixed with dirt left behind by the fire of the past war.
One by one, the figures were driven outside the city by insects and executioners with leather whips in their hands, clearing the snow and repairing the broken walls.
There was a strange hissing and screaming, and the mournful wails of the ragged figures, and another pool of blood on the ground, and a body that writhed and twitched.
In that body, there were no hands or feet. And in the position of hands and feet, lying or sitting on their stomachs, there are several executioners covered with worms, leaving drops of bright red blood in the corners of their mouths. Between his teeth, which have become sharper, he chews the flesh and bones of his hands and feet that he once had.
"Ho-ho-ho, this is what happens to you who are not obedient! You know, if you want to live, work hard for me, obediently, so that you can live a few more days! ”
Perhaps he didn't like the fact that the man who had fallen was gradually weakened, but he still moaned and wailed happily, and an executioner covered with insect nails and even insect patterns on his face opened his sharp teeth and bit off the man's neck, and then threw his head into the crowd, screaming with a hideous face.
"You, how can you!" "He, he used to raise you and raise you for many years!"
Among the ragged men, some knew the executioner, and some knew the fallen man. I didn't expect this kind of thing to really appear in front of my eyes, so I couldn't bear it, my tone was full of horror and trembling, I dragged an iron chain on my wrist, and my fingers trembled.
"Ho-ho, benefactor!?"
The manic aura on the executioner's body became a little thicker with a low sneer. Even an insect general who was sitting at the gate of the city wiping the long sword in his hand glanced at this side with a slight frown, and then withdrew his gaze, looking at the long sword in his hand with a burning eye.
"Tired and tired every day, even beating and scolding if something goes wrong, my little sister, my poor little sister, was sold to the Green Pavilion by him! Such a benefactor, if you like it, I will do it too! Ho ho no, I've already made it! ”
As he spoke, the executioner drew a large long knife from his back. Several Zerg and executioners who were happily gnawing on the corpses on the ground seemed to feel the cold killing intent, and their devouring movements slowed down, and then they got up and walked to the city gate, making way for the upcoming massacre here.
"Ho-ho-ho, so I'm very grateful to the Holy Clan who gave me such great power, and gave me the opportunity to 'repay' you for your kindness!"
After slashing two people with a fierce knife, the executioner kept on his feet and rushed towards more people. The hideous face, with bloodshot between the teeth, terrifying and terrifying appearance, made a few timid people can't help but flow out of the tattered crotch, a trace of water flowed out, soaking the ground under their feet.
"Be careful!"
The insect guarding the city gate wiping the long sword shouted, and before the sound fell, the body had already rushed out. At the same time, the executioner, who had killed several people in a row, slashed the ground with a large long knife in his hand, and his body took advantage of the momentum to dodge to the side.
A blind, arm-thick white light fell on where the executioner had been. If his knife continued to slash at the crowd instead of landing on the ground, he was afraid that he had already been hit by that attack wave.
Bang! ——
It's like a bomb that fell to the ground. The dust and rubble brought up by the aftermath of the attack frightened the nearby survivors and zergs, screaming and scurrying around.
The fierce battle began, and one after another the Zerg and the executioners attacked towards the city gate. The bullets that were also accompanied by the bombardment fell on the figures who ran towards the fort one by one. Please Baidu "Throw Book Network" Thank you for your support!
