Lado Town, Council Hall.

The mayor of the town, Ke Bike, and the head of the security team, Hank, had not yet appeared, and the entire hall was already crowded with people, and everyone was talking about each other.

"What did you say about the mayor suddenly calling an emergency meeting this time?"

"I think it must have something to do with the sudden increase in monsters, and the mayor is going to gather everyone to discuss countermeasures!"

"What other countermeasures can there be, the dragon family in Kara Town and the reinforcements sent by Odo Town have suffered heavy casualties after many rounds of fierce battles, and the bounty hunters who are still alive outside are also hiding in the southern caves and dare not come out, and the teleportation device is often malfunctioning, if it is teleported to some dangerous place, it may be eaten directly by monsters, we can't run away, we can only wait for death!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly felt depressed, and even the entire hall fell into silence.

After a long while, someone finally spoke.

"Actually, there is a way."

Everyone followed the voice, and the person who spoke was an ordinary-looking young man, but his knowledge and ability were recognized by everyone, and this person was none other than Dr. Yami, the youngest in Lado Town!

"What's the solution!"

Although the voice was small, everyone could hear it when it was so quiet that they could hear the pins dropping, and the person who spoke was Dr. Yami, and everyone suddenly became happy and felt hopeful.

"That's right, the situation is so critical now, and the number of monsters has increased greatly, if you have any good ideas, just say it!"

Dr. Yami pushed his glasses and said, "It's very simple, hand over the Xuanyu Divine Stone, their purpose is nothing more than that stone......"

This is the suggestion made by Hank at the last Lado summit, which is a helpless move, and it is ......

But at this moment, there was not so much to care about, and Dr. Yami brought it up in front of everyone.

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"That's a sacred relic in our town, even if we all die, even if the town perishes, even if we only have the last person left, we must not hand it over!"

"Hand over the Divine Stone, I'm the first to disagree!"

"Yes, whoever dares to say that I will fight with whoever hands over the Divine Stone!"

Yami's words were not finished halfway before they aroused fierce opposition from everyone, and at the same time, an old man in the side hall and the strong man next to him sighed helplessly,

"Hey...... Sure enough, it still doesn't work, ahem...... Even in the current situation, everyone still doesn't agree to hand over the stone, but if this continues, our town will perish sooner or later, and then the Xuanyu Divine Stone will be obtained by monsters! ”

"Yes, but the townspeople are influenced by traditional beliefs, and the status of Xuanyu Stone has long been exaggerated and even deified...... My personal recommendation is to hand it over! And Yami once said that after many speculations, it was found that this Xuanyu Stone should be an energy gem from outer space, not a product of the earth itself, if it really had something to do with Xuanyu Heavenly God, it should have been powerful a long time ago, but now it is ......"

"Ahem...... Let's get out, Hank, the situation is critical, and we can only tell you the worst, ahem...... It's also good to let everyone be mentally prepared. ”

"Yes!"

Hank helped the gray-haired rickety old man out of the side hall, "Everyone be quiet, the mayor has something to announce!" ”

Seeing that the mayor of the town was coming, the hall that was originally in an uproar because of the handover of the Xuanyu Divine Stone suddenly quieted down, and everyone looked at the mayor.

However, before Ke Bike could sit down, news came from outside the door:

"Oh no, that big ape Potter is here to attack the city again!"

"What? That terrifying monster ape is here again! ”

Everyone immediately panicked, and negative emotions such as fear, unease, and fear instantly enveloped the entire hall, after all, the scene when the monster broke through the outer defense line was too shocking, thus leaving a considerable shadow on the people who saw that scene.

Recently, Potter not only destroyed the fortifications of the second line of defense, but also severely damaged the dragon family in Kara Town and the reinforcements in Otto Town, and also killed bounty hunters from all directions, killing and wounding countless people, and some of the remaining hunters united and hid in the southern caves, where they built a stronghold and did not dare to come out again.

Some of them are now like frightened birds, to the extent that they have changed their color when they talk about the tiger, and they are so frightened when they hear the news that they dare not mention anything against handing over the Divine Stone, as if they are afraid of being heard by Potter!

"Good news! Good news! ”

It didn't take long for the voice of the communications soldier to be heard again.

"What's the good news?" Everyone was in good spirits, and their eyes looked at it collectively.

"The Great Demon King of Potter was seriously injured by someone, and he won't attack again in a short time!" The communications soldier replied with a beaming face.

In fact, as early as the arrival of the Dragon family and the reinforcements of Otto Town and the hunters who heard the wind, they killed most of the monsters, and the rest did not pose a big threat, only this Potter, like a killing god, killed the four major forces by himself, so he won the title of "Potter Great Demon King", and his bounty also rose to 300,000, ranking first!

"Really? Great, we need to thank him! Which hero is it? The old mayor asked with a smile on his face.

Sure enough, that's good news! When everyone heard this, their joy was overflowing, and for a moment they danced with their hands and feet regardless of their image, and the danger was temporarily lifted!

The communications soldier thought for a while and said, "I heard...... It seems that a famous bounty hunter at the four-star master level, named Master Shang, is now being treated in the hospital! ”

"Let's go, let's go see him!" The old mayor was pleased, and it seemed that there was no need to announce the worst decision.

Hearing the old mayor's words, everyone set off, although they didn't kill the monster completely, but they hit it hard to slow down the monsters' offensive, and from this point of view, they can also be called everyone's benefactors, and they prepared gifts and came to the hospital one after another.

And Master Shang, who was on an infusion due to serious injuries, saw that everyone came to visit him, and said that this was his obligation as a bounty hunter and declined everyone's gifts, in fact, there was another reason why he was unwilling to accept everyone's thank you, and he didn't say it.

He is undoubtedly extremely proud to become a four-star master-level bounty hunter at a young age, but Porter was defeated by himself without rest and recuperation after defeating the four major forces in a series of battles, and he seems to be more serious here, maybe he will never be a bounty hunter again......

The outskirts of the town have been occupied by monsters at the moment, many places are still burning with flames, the former high-rise buildings have become ruins, the beautiful mountains and rivers of the past have become purgatory on earth, the streets that used to be busy are deserted at this time, and the usual mothers and sons have become eternally separated!

In the monster camp, Potter, who was healing, looked at the dog monster and asked, "How ...... are these humans Tenacious, Covey, how long will it take for the follow-up troops to arrive? ”

After many battles, the young legion leader Potter, who has shown amazing strength, has become the "god of war" in the hearts of monsters, and an old electronic creature like the red-haired dog monster no longer dares to look down on it in front of it!

The red bionic war dog Covey changed his previous arrogance and replied solemnly: "Report to Lord Potter, Wang!" The follow-up unit is a heavy mecha, and it may take half a month......"

"What? It's going to be half a month, how long have we been fighting, and it will take half a month for the follow-up troops to come over, are they turtle monsters or snail monsters? Before Covey could finish speaking, Potter interrupted him angrily.

"My lord, Wang! You forget, you yourself said that this kind of place is enough for the vanguard, Wang! Have the heavy troops stationed at this end of the portal, Wang! They were just informed the other day to send reinforcements here...... "Covey replied respectfully.

Potter patted his forehead with his hand, and then he looked like he had come to his senses.

"Oh...... Right! Right! Right! I remembered that it was indeed my own order. Those guys walked too slowly like turtles, and it took me a month from the day I went on the expedition to the teleportation point, and I couldn't get there without four or five years with them, and Lord Noah was in a hurry......"

Potter thought for a moment and said, "In this way, you will not need to send a message to the heavy troops, let them attack the town of Odo directly!" Those people who don't know what to do dare to send troops to reinforce Lado Town, hum! In addition, you can contact the Fifth Legion and ask him to lend us the medical unit, and when my injuries are recovered, I will personally attack the city again!" ”

……

Half a month later, Potter, who had recovered from his injuries, led his army to attack again, at this time the four major forces were already in a state of collapse, and the only Shang master and apprentice who had defeated him were still injured, and it was obvious that the human camp no longer had the conditions to compete with it.

Soon, the second line of defense was also breached!

Everyone was forced to retreat to the inner city of Xuanyu, this thousand-year-old city built around the Xuanyu Hall was already the last line of defense, and the two sides were at a stalemate again.

The Inner City of Xuanyu, one of the largest side halls, is now used as a makeshift meeting hall.

"Mayor Mare, let's go fight with them! Now that we are surrounded by monsters everywhere, we now have no way to escape, both horizontally and vertically, it is better to die in battle than to be killed, and it is worth it to pull a monster on the back! ”

I don't know who said a word, which immediately caused a response from everyone.

"Yes, Mayor Mare, we're fighting them!"

"Fight!"

"Ahem...... Everyone, everyone, be quiet! ”

Forced by the situation, the old mayor finally spoke, although helpless, but now it seems that he has to use that method.

"Suki, you take someone to inform everyone, let the people outside quickly retreat to the Xuanyu Palace, Gelaru, you take Hank's security team to cover the wounded in the hospital and help our reinforcements evacuate to the Xuanyu Hall safely, and the rest of the people bring weapons to the outer hall to meet the enemy!"

Hearing the mayor's order, everyone immediately took action......

"Hank, you're coming!"

When everyone was almost gone, the mayor beckoned to Hank, and Hank understood, and helped the old mayor to the side hall where no one was.

The old mayor hesitated again and again before finally said helplessly: "Hank, you have also seen that our town is now in a critical moment of life and death, ahem...... Now I'm afraid that the only way to save everyone is to use the method we discussed at the beginning, but ......"

"Mayor Mayor, needless to say, you don't have to feel guilty, this is my own choice, and I am the only one who can handle this important task at the moment, so let's follow that plan!" Hank said solemnly.

The old mayor's expression was complicated, but he was absolutely unwilling to use this plan if he had any other choice, but the people of the whole town, as well as the reinforcements and hunters who came to the rescue, were all swept in, and they were in this existential crisis......

Ke Bike's breathing gradually increased, there was a mist rising in his cloudy eyes, his body was also trembling violently, he was a little choked, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

Hank looked at the old mayor and pretended to smile lightly, "It's better to fight than to sit and wait, at least half the chance, if you fail, there's nothing to say about everyone dying together, oh, by the way, Yami also has a three-star well-known hunter who is willing to help in this operation." ”

Speaking of this, Hank paused for a moment, then swallowed hard, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes, "If I succeed, I can bear this infamy alone but can exchange the life of everyone else...... It's worth it! ”

Immediately, as if he thought of something to be happy but sad, his expression changed for a while, and finally he took a deep breath, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, a touch of tenderness appeared on his face, and his voice was a little choked and pleaded: "I...... My family, please! ”

After saying that, he resolutely strode outside......
