Chapter 3: The Power of the Third Order
Huge waves rumbled against the cliffs.
On the cliff more than 20 meters above the sea, stands a majestic castle.
The castle faces the vast East China Sea, and the white walls are built directly to the edge of the cliff, almost blending in with the steep cliffs.
The castle's white spire stands out, and the first rays of light that rise from the sea in the morning shine on the spire.
That white spire holds an extraordinary meaning in the hearts of the human survivors by the sea.
Forever at the forefront of the defense against mutant sea beasts, it leads people to fight, become stronger, and stay alive, and as long as it does not fall, the human cities and survivor camps behind it will not be attacked by sea beasts.
The real spire, Murong Chaoyang, the lord of Dawning City, was standing on top of the white city wall at this time, holding his shoulders and looking at the vast sea, letting his long hair flutter backwards with the salty sea breeze.
Murong Chaoyang closed his eyes and opened his arms towards the sea, embracing her whole in his arms or throwing himself into it.
At this moment, a five- or six-meter-long swordfish suddenly jumped out of the sea and directly jumped dozens of meters high, like a sharp arrow stabbing at Murong Chaoyang.
Murong Chaoyang's eyes were still closed, he had already felt the air flow brought by the swordfish piercing the air, but he was still motionless.
The swordfish has arrived in front of him, and the sharp fish snout has pierced the center of the eyebrows.
Murong Chaoyang turned his head sideways, turned around, and made a move, and a cold light flashed, and the swordfish's body was split in two from his waist.
Clean and neat, the movements were done in one go, and the first-order mutant beast only needed one finger to cut out a special ability in front of Murong Chaoyang.
Murong Chaoyang shook his head gently, "No, I still can't find the path of the third order." ”
The swordfish, which had been cut in two, was still not dead, and the upper half of its body was still struggling desperately.
Naturally, there was no need for Murong Chaoyang to make a move, and the blue shark guards who had already been on the side stepped forward and cut off their heads to dig up crystal nuclei.
"The fish is sent to the kitchen to stew, the city lord Chi should be almost there, just let the city lord Chi taste this fresh fish soup." Murong Chaoyang suddenly reminded the guard.
"Back to the city lord, the city lord Chi has arrived with the people from Phoenix City, and Di Junshi is drinking tea with him in the hall."
"Bastard, why didn't you notify me in advance?"
The guards were so frightened that they hurriedly bowed down and explained: "The city lord and the military advisor both said not to disturb your perception first. ”
After not getting a response for a long time, the guard secretly raised his head, and there was no Murong Chaoyang in front of him for a long time.
In the spacious reception hall of Dawning City, Chi Hua and Di Sheng had a good conversation.
The two have long been old acquaintances, and Chi Hua doesn't have the slightest overlord, and the two are chatting about some meat and vegetarian jokes.
On Chi Hua's side, there were also An An, Li Xiaofei, Mo Yingyang, Liang Lei, Lu Ziniu, and Hu Jing, plus Ah Bao and Wu Ma lying outside the door, and Yan Ying hidden in the dark, Phoenix City came to ten second-order powerhouses this time.
Mo Yingyang's Special Operations Brigade and Xiao Ning and Xiao Ru's Mutated Fierce Beast Heavy Armored Cavalry Brigade had their own Di Sheng arranged to entertain them in other places.
On Di Sheng's side, there were also Murong Bin, Feng Zhen, Qin Zibing, and Qin Zishuang sisters as accompaniment.
The Ice and Frost Sisters are seeing Chi Hua for the first time. After appreciating the cold fairy wind bones in the southwest, the sisters have always been curious about what kind of character the legendary Phoenix Lord is? Therefore, regardless of An An being on the side, his eyes kept staying on Chi Hua.
It's just that after watching it for a long time, I was a little disappointed, the Phoenix City Lord had neither the legendary domineering appearance, nor the handsome Murong Chaoyang and Yi Fengleng, and the disappointed expression was directly expressed on the faces of the sisters.
At this moment, Murong Chaoyang strode from outside the hall with a big smile, "I have a feeling for a while, I missed the city lord of Chi, forgive my sins, forgive my sins!" ”
"With two such delicate roses beside him, it's no wonder that Brother Murong always can't understand the path of the third order." Chi Hua laughed at Murong Chaoyang when he met.
There have always been ambiguous rumors about Murong Chaoyang and the two daughters in Shuguang City in private, but no one dared to bring it up in person, so Chi Hua dared to make this joke.
The Ice and Frost Sisters' faces were red. Thinking that this man's strength is too small, he will be repaid, and the feeling of Chi Hua in his heart is suddenly worse.
"It's not as good as Brother Chi's 'Ice and Fire Double Fly', the blessing of Qi people!" Murong Chaoyang smiled and retorted.
Both of them are characters who are overlords of one side, but when they meet, they make this kind of lewd joke between men first, and if they let the people below see them, they will be shocked.
"On behalf of all the people of Dawn City, Murong thanked City Lord Chi for his righteousness, and personally led people to help him!" After Murong Chaoyang sat down, he gave Chi Hua tea first.
"Brother Murong is polite. Dawning City and Phoenix City are allies and brothers, and they should help each other, especially to save millions of people from being slaughtered by fierce beasts. Brother Murong still directly introduced the situation of this beast tide. ”
Only then did the two big men start talking about business.
"Brother Chi came just in time, and there have been scattered mutant sea beasts that have begun to take the initiative to storm the city wall, and we estimate that the full outbreak of the beast tide should be between these two days."
"I see that the terrain of this Dawning City is steep, and it is high from the sea level, and the beast tide will bypass Dawning City and land on the gentle land on both sides of the river." Chi Hua has always had some doubts in his heart.
"Mutant sea beasts have been able to leave the water for a short time, but except for a few crustacean beasts such as turtles and crabs, the distance that other sea beasts can land is only a few kilometers. We had already arranged for the camp to be relocated within eight kilometers of the coast, so if the beast tide broke out, Dawning City would inevitably bear the brunt of a frontal attack. ”
"I don't know what preparations the city lord of Murong has made in the early stage, and what do we need to do when the beast tide breaks out?"
"Since the city lord Chi asked about the defense, I also ask Brother Chi and the friends of Phoenix City to follow me to the city wall for a look, and then arrange a banquet for you to catch the wind."
......
Standing on top of the wide white city wall, looking at the rocks towering in the sea below the city wall, the cliffs dug by the pits, and the dense guard towers and gun emplacements on the city wall, Chi Hua's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
Chi Hua's expression naturally fell in Murong Chaoyang's eyes, "But if there is anything wrong, please Brother Chi just speak up." ”
Chi Hua was not polite, and said directly: "Once the sea beast is allowed to rush to the city, these cannons will be useless; Although the city wall was built directly on the edge of the cliff, it increased the danger of the terrain, but it lacked a buffer, and once the second-order sea beast crashed into a large area of rock, the entire section of the city wall was in danger of collapsing. ”
Murong Chaoyang smiled bitterly, "I don't know what Brother Chi saw, it's just that when this city was first built, there were no second-order sea beasts in the world. With the geographical advantage of the city wall, most of the first-order sea beasts could not jump off the city wall and were wiped out under the city. It's just that time has passed, and the geographical advantage of the year has become a hidden danger today. ”
Chi Hua nodded, "It seems that this can only be the case, there are discarded metals in the city, and I can make some transformations on the existing basis." ”
Murong Chaoyang immediately showed joy, "I have long heard of the divine power of the Chi City Lord's 'Metal Country', and I have never had the privilege of seeing it. Since I learned that Brother Chi personally brought people to help, I urgently arranged for someone to collect a batch, but I only collected five or six thousand tons in a hurry, I don't know if it is enough? ”
"It's barely enough, and before the beast tide broke out, I asked Brother Murong to order people to collect the metal with all their might."
"Okay, then I'll order the collected metal to be carried up the walls now."
"No, Brother Murong just needs to tell me the location, and I'll take it myself."
Murong Chaoyang was stunned for a moment, but then pointed to a corner of the castle nearly a hundred meters away. I saw that there were three huge metal piles at the place of Murong Chaoyang's fingers, which were also covered with tarpaulins.
Chi Hua nodded, and slowly stretched out his palm towards the position of the metal pile.
Nothing changed at first, and a pile of metal collapsed. The silver metal liquid flew out from under the metal pile, like a water dragon flying directly into Chi Hua's palm and disappeared.
The three metal piles collapsed one after another, and the water dragon connecting Chi Hua's palm and the metal pile had become as thick as a bucket.
At the time of the tea, the three huge metal piles disappeared completely, leaving only a thick layer of gray-white metal residue in their place.
The evolutionaries in Dawning City all widened their eyes and stared at Chi Hua with incredible eyes. What a terrifying ability is this? Five or six thousand tons of metal were absorbed into the body in a very short time.
But then an even more incredible scene made these strong people even suspect that they were dreaming!
Chi Hua stretched out his palms at the same time, and the metal liquid flowed out of his body, spreading from his feet to the surroundings. The liquid metal overflowed the entire length of the wall, along the wall to the entire cliff face, and then extended horizontally into the sea from the point where the cliff touched the sea level.
In about half an hour, what appeared in front of everyone was a wall and cliff wrapped in silver metal, and the city wall and cliff had truly merged. Beneath the walls is a silver metal platform as wide as the city wall and nearly 100 meters long extending into the sea.
If the mutant sea beast wants to attack Dawning City again, it will not be able to jump directly out of the sea to attack, and must jump onto the platform and glide some distance away from the water to attack the Dawning Wall. It is conceivable that countless sea beasts will be buried on this platform.
What a miracle!
The eyes of the Ice and Frost sisters were already full of little stars, how to look at it, how to think that the Phoenix City Lord in front of them was handsome and tall.
Chi Hua let out a sigh and wiped the sweat from his forehead, "It's already taking shape, and the next job is to keep adding metal and increasing the thickness of the metal layer." ”
Murong Chaoyang suddenly bowed to Chi Hua to the ground, "Brother Chi has reached the third order?" ”
Chi Hua smiled but did not answer.
Murong Chaoyang saluted again, "I also hope that Brother Chi will give advice and advice for the sake of the friendship of the alliance and the sons and daughters of China!" ”
Although Murong Chaoyang was conceited and arrogant, before the great temptation of the third order, what was that bit of self-esteem? What's more, the master is the teacher.
Chi Hua pondered for a while, and said slowly: "I do have some feelings on the third-order road, but whether I can push open that door in the end depends on my personal strength and comprehension. To tell you the truth, I have already taught the powerhouses of the second order peak of Phoenix City what I have learned, but except for Feng Leng who is already at the door, the others are still unable to do so. ”
Murong Chaoyang's face was solemn, "I just want Brother Chi to show me the way, and Cheng and Cheng are naturally in their personal talents and opportunities." ”
Chi Hua's face suddenly turned embarrassed, "Brother Murong, although the alliance between you and me is deep, the so-called brother is settling accounts, not that I Chi Hua is stingy, I paid the corpse of a third-order fierce beast as a price for this realization. ”
Behind everyone, the Ice and Frost Sisters couldn't help but spit on the ground, and the tall image that someone had just established in their hearts immediately collapsed.
Murong Chaoyang didn't hesitate at all, "No matter what the price, as long as I have it in Dawn City, City Lord Chi can speak." ”
"The fierce beast materials hunted in this beast tide, I Phoenix City will take half of them." Chi Hua blurted out, obviously planning in his heart.
"Okay, just follow the city lord!"
A sly light flashed from Chi Hua's eyes, and the materials that he had paid from the King of Light had been doubled back from Murong Chaoyang this time.
