Chapter XII

It's a long road, and the night moon is vast.

A wild dog that wisps a blade of a wild dog. Impatiently, after a night of driving and sleeping, the dead leaves are a little suspicious that they are going in the wrong direction.

"Zi'er, when do you think we will be able to arrive in Xuanwu City? It's too dangerous to walk all the way. ”

Lin Zi'er looked at the half-meter-tall wild dog on the ground, and saw the injured arm of the dead leaf with a heartache: "Are you okay?" Is the injury serious? Take a break! ”

If you don't arrive in Xuanwu City, it's not safe, and the dead leaves don't want Lin Zi'er to be in danger for a second, so she waved her hand and looked around vigilantly: "It's okay, this little injury is commonplace, and it won't get in the way." Let's go. ”

Xuanwu City! One of the eight companion capitals, firmly defending the ethereal city of the imperial capital. The nine cities and eighteen fortresses in the north restrained the pace of the southern invasion of the beast clan. Xuanwu City is the political, military, and economic center of the north, and the loss of Xuanwu City can lead to the ethereal of the imperial capital, and the loss of the imperial capital marks the destruction of mankind. Xuanwu City cannot afford to lose, but Xuanwu City is the target that the beast clan wants to break the most, today the storm is rising, the war is coming, whether the nine cities and eighteen stops can stop the pace of the beast clan's southern invasion, and whether the accompanying Xuanwu City can be alone, it is still unknown.

Jin Jing Sword, named after the celebrity red sword. The Golden Crystal Armor is called the Red Shadow Crystal Armor. First-class weapons and equipment, but unfortunately they can only be looked at and cannot be used.

Withered Leaves regretted: "It's a pity that these two things are too heavy." The armor weighed at least three hundred pounds, and I don't know what it was made of. ”

"Hmmm! Brother Withered Leaves, and that sword, I can feel the sharp breath from a distance, it's so powerful. ”

"Haha!" The withered leaves led Lin Zi'er and said with a smile: "Not only is it sharp, it is simply indestructible." If I can match such a sword, even if it is a porcupine, I can hit it with a sword. It's a pity, it's more than a hundred pounds. ”

Thundered!

Dead Leaf saw a fiery snake galloping at high speed.

"Zi'er, hide!"

Tap Tap, Tap! Two sparks suddenly split out from the fire serpent, and the war horse walked towards the place where the dead leaves were hiding.

"The people inside! Come out for me! If we don't come out, don't blame us! ”

"Don't kill us! We are good citizens! ”

"Who are you and what are you doing here? Where are you going? ”

"My lord! The Advent of our Maple Village. I want to defect to Xuanwu City. ”

"What? What happened to Maple Leaf Village? You know what to say! ”

"Maple Leaf Village is gone! The Soul Suppressor is also dead. Everybody's dead! Except for the two of us, both of whom are dead! The village burned down! ”

"What?"

"Captain Lee! You escort them to Xuanwu City! I rushed to Maple Leaf Village! There is no room for loss in the Soul Suppression Stone! ”

When the dead leaves were stunned, the fire snake had disappeared from view.

"Who are you?" Withered Leaf asked happily. It seems that I was lucky to meet my own people!

"Can you still go? I will escort you back to the city. The team leader looked worriedly in the direction of the horse team's departure: "I don't know if there is any danger." Let's go! We are the garrison of the City Guard. I didn't expect the orcs to be so rampant that they dared to stick their claws here! ”

Xuanwu City!

The walls were majestic, thirty-three meters and three feet high, and eleven meters and an inch wide. All of them are made of high-quality obsidian, and the inside and outside of the city wall are full of dense mercury magic arrays. The physical defense is amazing, and the magic resistance is even stronger, and it is difficult for magic below the master level to destroy the surface of the city wall, let alone destroy the city wall!

"Brother Withered Leaves! Is this the city wall? Not a cliff? ”

The withered leaves closed Lin Zi'er's chin that couldn't close her mouth, and at the same time closed her own chin. He shook his head to stop looking up at the wall. It's so high that you can only see a little bit if you look up. It deserves to be one of the most important cities of the empire.

"Let's go! You'll get used to it later. ”

Withered Leaves didn't care about the knight's urging, looked around, and excitedly said this and that to Lin Zi'er, it was simply a wild monkey who had entered the Forbidden City in Beijing. However, their clothes are earthy, and they are all made of hemp rope.

Instead of urging, the knight introduced the withered leaves: "Xuanwu City is divided into twelve districts, covering an area of three hundred and sixty-nine square kilometers. The legions stationed are innumerable, and the number of soldiers guarding them is even more numerous. There is even a supreme artifact to guard the peace of the party. Xuanwu Divine Seal! Don't look at this city wall, it's like tofu in front of the artifact. It's a pity that no one can use the artifact Xuanwu Divine Seal, otherwise it will be in vain for more beasts to come. ”

"How powerful is the artifact?" Withered Leaf couldn't believe that in his eyes, the towering walls were impregnable.

"Artifact!" The knight looked at the sky for a long time: "That's a god's weapon, only a god can use it." It's a pity that there are no gods in this world, and gods can't exist in the Lingwu Continent, so no one can use the artifact Xuanwu Divine Seal. ”

Withered Leaves was curious: "Since there is a god, why is the god not in the Lingwu Continent?" Isn't that a contradiction? ”

"Huh! Not contradictory! Not contradictory at all. As long as you become a god, you must leave the Lingwu Continent and enter the God Realm. And the people of the God Realm can only destroy their own strength if they want to descend to the Lingwu Continent, and reduce it to the legendary strength that the Lingwu Continent can accept. Otherwise, it will be rejected by the Lingwu Continent. Therefore, there are gods, but there are no gods in the Lingwu Continent. ”

"Oh!" Dead Leaves and Lin Zi'er suddenly realized.

"You guys, if you want to increase your strength in the future, the best way is to become a mercenary or join the army directly."

"Why? Isn't it possible to make money by killing monsters yourself? The strength grows very quickly! "That's how the strength of the withered leaves has always come from, and I feel that it is still very effective.

"Huh! Intelligence is the most important thing for your survival, and the Mercenary Guild has an intelligence network all over the continent, not to mention the army, which ranks first in the continent. There are a lot of constraints to entering the army, but as long as you dare to fight, the empire will continue to provide you with supplies and experience. In addition to providing information, the Mercenary Guild will also issue quests, and as long as you can complete them, you can get a good reward, but! The knight said solemnly, "But the mercenary is a madman who licks blood from the edge of the knife to live!" Every mission failed to return, and the death rate was several times higher than that of the army. ”

"But I'm a woman, can I join the army?" Lin Zi'er said worriedly that she had been frightened by the high mortality rate of mercenaries, and she did not consider the mercenary position directly.

"There is no distinction between men and women in the Lingwu Continent, as long as you have the strength, you can go wherever you want! We're here! ”

"Arrived?"

Two huge griffons carved in front of the doorway, with a mahogany copper roof, a strong entrance hall, and four guards.

"This is the Prime Minister's Palace. I need you to provide you with what you know, and you can't miss a word. ”
