Chapter 25: The Secret Passage
"Judging from the current situation, although we have won the victory for the time being, the enemy will definitely come back, and this guy on the city wall is also eyeing him, and this guy Muller must have some earth-shattering conspiracy, and we must find a way to stop him. ”
Getting a respite, Chen Musu began to think about it, Mueller must have some plans behind such a big effort, and his rhetoric to Shiva just now must be useless to Mueller, after all, Moody's token has long been seized by himself.
If Khiva had lived, he might have been able to use the victory to scare him again, but for now their only recourse was to find a way to climb over the walls.
"But with us people, there is no chance of winning the siege at all, those guys don't know when they will launch the second round of attack, once we choose to attack the city, the consequences are unimaginable!"
Zamo was not in favor of a siege, they simply could not break through the defenses of so many people.
on the city walls
"A few of you, go and bring the others up to defend the wall, and don't let them climb up. "Muller on the wall gave the order, and the others did not dare to disobey him, and the two commanders immediately went to gather their men.
"Wait, there's one thing I have to make it clear to you, I'm doing this for the sake of the eight tribes, and if you dare to make any small moves, you're going to be the enemy of all of us!"
Mueller was still a little uneasy, and after he said this, the faces of these commanders changed, and they couldn't stop beating the drums in their hearts, and then left.
"You two, send a signal quickly!" Mueller smiled as he looked at the generals in front of him with uncertain faces, he knew that his words would work, even if he killed Shiva, these people would have to weigh his power.
Under the city walls
"Is there really no other way to go?" Chen Musu's face was anxious, he had a hunch that he had better return to the Soul Clan as soon as possible, Mueller's goal this time was very clear, it was for him, and the other party wanted to kill himself by the hands of these dead armies.
Recalling the scene of forcing the palace at that time, it was not difficult for Chen Musu to find that if it wasn't for his sudden might, I am afraid that the conspiracy of these people would have succeeded, and the old man told him that the remaining soul power of the Tower of Babel was not much, and it would take the old man's own soul power to open it.
After opening the Tower of Babel, the old man will definitely be very weak, and if Mueller takes the opportunity to attack, if the entire soul land loses the prophet, everything will fall into a state of no return, and more importantly, he doesn't know what Mueller wants to do.
"Look at those wolf smoke!"
Just when Chen Musu was pondering, a wolf smoke suddenly appeared in the air, Zamo knew very well, because the distance between the walls of each other was too far, they usually used such a signal to transmit the news, but the closest was the Third Tribe, which was empty, who did this news go to?
"Lord Emissary, this wolf smoke is used to convey the message, they must have communicated it a long time ago, once the wolf smoke sounds, I am afraid that the person who receives the news will take certain actions, no matter what these actions are, it is not good news for us. ”
"Then what can we do now, the only way to return to the Soul Clan has been blocked, and we can only be trapped in this place. ”
Chen Musu was very helpless, he was not familiar with the environment here at all, listening to Zamo's tone, this city wall was the only way for them to return to the Soul Clan, which showed that they probably had no other way to retreat.
"That's not the case, there's still a way to return to the soul clan!" Zamo suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he said to Chen Musu.
"Damn, why didn't you say it earlier, then let's go that way quickly!" This news is the best news that Chen Musu has heard so far, as long as he can successfully return to the Soul Clan, Mueller's conspiracy will be useless.
"But Lord Emissary, that path is really not easy to walk!" After a moment, Zamo, whose eyes were shining, suddenly lowered his head, and could see that the path he said was not simple.
"Phew, do we have any other way? No matter what kind of road it is, we have to break through it, and it is better than staying here and dying. ”
"Well, what if I say that the road is also a life and a death?" Zamo smiled sadly, and in his opinion the two paths were not much different.
"There's no time to think about it, you quickly tell us how to get there, there is only a dead end to stay here, and this guy Mueller won't stop if he doesn't put me to death. Chen Musu knows very well that according to Mueller's ruthless character, staying here is a dead end.
"That road is not here, we have to rush to the Third Tribe, but in this situation, there are those enemies ahead, and there are other threats, it is difficult for us to succeed in the Third Tribe, and after we arrive, we have to climb out of the walls of the Third Tribe, and then make a big circle on the territory of those dead things, bypassing the Eighth Tribe. ”
"After that, we will reach a cliff, that cliff is very steep, only if we successfully climb the cliff, we can be considered to be back in the territory of the soul clan!"
Zamo said the general situation of this road very clearly, Chen Musu also frowned after hearing this, the most difficult thing at the moment is how to avoid the cliff of these enemies, there are still two or three hundred dead things in front of them, the third tribe is now empty, and it is difficult to say what situation will happen next.
This road is really a life of nine deaths, even Chen Musu doesn't know how to decide for a while, if he chooses this path, the first difficulty to pass is how to kill a bloody path from these dead things.
"By the way, Zamo, don't you have only one way to get here from the Third Tribe?" Chen Musu seemed to think of something, and suddenly asked such a question.
"That's right, there is indeed only one way, the forest here is not big, we can't get around these guys at all, the warriors are not like those dead things, they have just experienced a big battle, and their physical strength has not yet recovered. Zamo thought that Chen Musu had decided to fight his way out, looked at the situation of the soldiers around him, and sighed helplessly.
"No, did you notice anything last night?" Chen Musu continued to ask.
"No, I kept watch yesterday and found nothing except that Ximu guy ran away!" Zamo was sure.
After receiving Zamo's affirmative answer, Chen Musu was thoughtful, and after connecting everything together, he suddenly had an idea.
"Ximu's mission is to take us to the Third Tribe, looking at his appearance at the time, there must be an ambush in that place, but the brother who went to explore the way said that the Third Tribe is empty, which means that Shimu must have told Shiva the news, and it stands to reason that Shiva should be waiting in front to ambush us, or else he has set some trap. ”
"But we didn't go, and they fell short, so they decided to lure these dead creatures to attack us, trapping us under this wall, so the question is, how did Khiva, who was in front of us, suddenly appear behind us all of a sudden?"
"It stands to reason that there is only one way between the Third Tribe and the Eighth Tribal, and unless they can fly, how did they slip under our noses? ”
Combined with the information gathered, Chen Musu came to a conclusion, and after he said these words to Zamo, the latter also suddenly realized.
"You mean there's a secret passage?"
"Yes, as long as we find this secret passage, we can quickly avoid all the enemies!" Chen Musu took a deep breath, finally giving him hope.
"I see, I'm going to look for it. ”
on the city walls
"Patriarch Mueller, these people seem to be looking for something!" The actions below were seen by them, and these people were shocked, they did come to the bottom of the city wall through the secret passage last night, so they could enter the city before Chen Musu and the others.
"It's not good, they must have discovered the location of the secret passage!" "Mueller's secret passages are not good, these secret passages have been dug by them for many years with a lot of manpower and material resources, and there is a secret passage between each tribe, and outside the soul clan, other warriors know the existence of these secret passages.
First, in order to prevent unexpected situations, their tribal people can enter the secret passage to take refuge, and secondly, in order to deal with today's situation, Mueller has long had a different heart, just when he was about to implement it, who knew that a Chen Musu would descend from the sky.
"You can't let them go, you send someone to stop them!" Mueller hurriedly gave the order, but after he spoke, these people were motionless.
"Patriarch Mueller, now going out of the city is simply looking for death, and it is even more difficult to ensure that those guys will not use this to enter the city, you also saw just now, with that messenger here, even those dead things are not their opponents. ”
"Then put the rope!" Mueller still didn't give up, if he let Chen Musu leave, he would have to face these enemies as soon as possible, his men were still in the process of rushing there, this secret passage was originally reserved for these people, in case Chen Musu found out, his plan would not be so easy to complete.
"Then you might as well kill us!" Müller's order was undoubtedly to send them to death, but these people were unwilling, and Müller did not dare to do anything, but walked to the edge of the city wall with a gloomy face.
"What are you doing, Lord Emissary, do you want to run? If you do, don't blame me for not reminding you, I can't stop these enemies. ”
This is Mueller's last resort, he wants to use the last barrier of the soul clan to threaten Chen Musu.
"Hah, ha, ha!" Mueller's words made Chen Musu very happy, and the other party was afraid, which showed that the secret passage may really exist.
"What are you laughing at, Sir-sama?"
"It's very simple, if you give up the city wall, once these enemies enter, these people inside will bear the brunt of it, and there is no way to retreat from the soul land, and then you will be caught between the soul clan and these enemies, and the situation will be even less optimistic than ours, if you want to die early, you might as well try!"
Chen Musu was not moved by such a threat at all, he spoke loudly, whether it was Mueller, the soldiers in the city basically heard it, maybe relying on the city wall, they could still resist with the advantage of numbers, but once they abandoned the city wall, they would definitely die.
"What are you doing?" After Chen Musu finished speaking, one of the commanders let out wolf smoke again, trying to stop the action ahead, and Mueller saw this scene and shouted loudly.
"Patriarch Mueller, if you're going to make a joke with the lives of all of us, don't blame us for not reminding you that all the warriors here are from our Third Tribe!"
Under the city walls
"Lord Emissary, Commander Zamo, there is indeed a secret passage here!"
