Chapter 28: The Rebellion in Ranmian City
After Gusas left, Hercules flew quickly out of the city in the Wind Protector, but it was too late by this time, and the poisoned had already set up heavy guards at various intersections.
"What should I do?" Tianxuan leaned directly on the seat, his hands spread out and drooping, losing the consciousness of struggling.
"Discouraged by such a setback?" Hercules looked at Tianxuan, a little disdainful, "I rushed out on two legs before, not to mention that we still have the Wind Protector in our hands now, and the conditions are much superior." ”
When Tianxuan heard this, his sloppy eyes immediately came to his senses, and he hurriedly sat up from the seat and asked, "You mean there is a way?" ”
"Of course!" Hercules squinted and shook his head, and said calmly, "Although the Wind Protector travels along the airflow track, it has a jet engine inside, and it can also drive off the track. It's just that you can't travel long distances. ”
Tianxuan raised his head and took a deep breath, pointed to the outside of the city, and suddenly realized: "Oh! What do you mean? ”
"Well, that's it! Now you come to drive and open the shield. Hercules nodded slightly, then turned on the engine and slammed it off, heading out of the city for the city.
At this time, several poisoned people at the city gate did not react at all to the oncoming people. The tip of Hercules' electric baton suddenly turned into a long electric whip, and then he waved the whip above his head, and electric sparks began to flash in the air.
When the Wind Protector was about to break through the gates, a few of the guards reacted. Just as they reached their waists and were about to pull out their weapons, "Smack! "Bang Bang! With a few crisp thuds, Hercules' electric whip landed on the guards. The process was carried out in one go, and several guards were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
In this way, Tianxuan and the others successfully rushed out of Lanmian City......
An hour after the Wind Protector drove towards Power City, Nicolas was still unconscious. Tianxuan was bored, so he chatted with Hercules.
"Hey, Hercules, how long will it take to get there?"
"At the current speed of 80 kilometers per hour, it should be more than an hour! However, the fuel reserves may not last until the destination, and we will have to walk some distance. Hercules said solemnly to the console.
"Oh, that seems early! Hey, there's something I want to ask you, how did you get to Lanmian City? ”
Tianxuan leaned back in his seat and squinted his eyes and said leisurely.
"Originally, I was going to the glacial layer to find the crystal that restrained the fire dragon. However, the Trench Ronin is destroying the trench buffer zone everywhere. Because of the lack of manpower, I was sent to Lanmian City for reinforcements. ”
"Is it more important to restrain the Flame Dragon, or is it more important to stop the Trench Ronin?" Tianxuan still leaned back in the chair and dangled his legs, and said as if he was enjoying it very much.
"Of course, it is important to restrain the Yanlong, but at the moment, stopping the trench ronin is a top priority. Because if the buffer zone is destroyed, the water in the ocean will swallow up a large part of our world along the trench. Hercules raised her voice at this point.
"What's the situation?" Tianxuan straightened up from his seat and asked, "You mean where we're right now is under the trench, right?" ”
"That's right!"
"I still don't know what we're down the trench where we're now. Is it connected to the sea? Tianxuan was puzzled.
"Of course it's the same!"
"Then why didn't the sea come in? This is not common sense, huh? Tianxuan was even more confused.
"I'm not a professional on this and can't answer your question! You can consult the books!"
"Consult the classics? Are there any books that can be consulted in this situation? Tianxuan was a little unhappy. Because this situation is like someone saying to you: "If there is a problem, check Baidu!" "But now you can't access the Internet at all, isn't that nonsense?
"Forget it, forget it. When I got to my destination, I asked the sages of the city. Tianxuan waved his hand and said. At this time, he had a feeling of playing the piano with a cow.
However, the journey was long, and after a while, Tianxuan took the initiative to talk again: "Don't talk about the rest, you went to Lanmian City to support, how did it become a fugitive?" ”
"That's a long story!"
"To make a long story short!" Hearing this, he seemed a little impatient.
"Well, let me think!" Then Hercules began his reminiscences:
That was three days ago, Hercules led a support team of 20 people to Lanmian City, and the city lord Yu Wenquan greeted them warmly.
"Captain Hercules, I've finally got you here!" Yu Wenquan was very excited to hold Hercules' hand and kept shaking it up and down.
"Yes, here we are!" Hercules responded to Yu Wenquan very politely, "Your Excellency the City Lord, how is the situation now?" ”
"Look!" Yu Wenquan stretched out his right arm, spread his palm upward, and led them to the battle conference room, "Now the river bank line around the entire Lanmian City is constantly rising, and the area of the river is constantly expanding. Now, 37 buffer zones have been found to be leaking. ”
Hercules saw 37 leaks in 37 places, cascading down from the distance, like a blue waterfall. The situation has reached a very serious point.
"Have you detected the trench ronin's lair now?" Hercules asked.
"It has been reported that in the vicinity of this breached buffer zone, there was an encounter between our search force and the trench ronin. However, the 50-strong force was completely wiped out. Yu Wenquan's face looked very ugly at this time.
"Alright! Leave it to us! Let's go and see what's going on! Hercules didn't laugh at Yu Wenquan, but just recorded the coordinates of the encounter.
"So, how about I equip you with another 20 logistics?" Yu Wenquan wants to save face a little.
Hercules nodded in agreement. Then, he led a team of 40 people to the accident site to investigate......
At the target location, Hercules was ambushed by the Trench Ronin, but it was nothing, and the small group of harassment was quickly crushed by Hercules. More than 40 of the 60 trench ronins who came to ambush were killed, and only a few were injured on Hercules's side.
After that, Hercules continued to take advantage of the victory. However, the Trench Ronin no longer fights them, and instead spends time in hiding.
For such a situation, coupled with the previous battle situation, the opponent's strength was almost powerless in front of Hercules. However, the annihilation of the previous 50-man search force is incomprehensible. As a result, Hercules halted the pursuit and returned to the city of Lamian.
When he arrived outside the city, Hercules noticed that the city was filled with smoke. So, Hercules hurriedly led the team into the city. However, this decision was hasty and wrong, because the city of Lanmian was completely out of control.
In the smoke, it is impossible to distinguish between ordinary people and poisoned people, plus some criminals take advantage of the fire to rob, everyone becomes crazy, as long as there are living people approaching, they immediately can't help but say that it is a random slash, and the riot in the city has reached the point of being uncontrollable. Therefore, Hercules escaped from Lanmian City in a panic......
"That's the way it is, in short, it was my carelessness and mistakes that led to the current situation!" Hercules clenched his fist in his right hand and bit his lower lip with his teeth, feeling guilty of his impulsiveness.
"Don't be like this, you are also eager to save people's hearts, just in a hurry, don't blame yourself too much!" At this time, Tianxuan got up and walked to Hercules' side and comforted him.
Hercules just closed his eyes and inhaled deeply.
"Hey, by the way, Hercules, you said it was very chaotic when you entered the city?" Tianxuan seems to have discovered something.
"Yes, what's the problem?" Hercules asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Don't you think it's strange? We didn't find any signs of fighting in the Archon Hall and the City Lord's Hall at all, and nothing was destroyed, did we? Tianxuan tried to remember some of the discord.
"Well, what seems to be going on? Something is wrong. Hercules felt that there was some truth in Tianxuan's words, and rubbed his lower lip with the knuckles of his fingers and thought, "It stands to reason that Lanmian City found such a big riot, and the management of the city-state was all poisoned without anything unusual. Moreover, Brent didn't know about such a big movement! It feels like there's a big conspiracy. ”
"Well, it's a bit weird!" Tianxuan also rubbed his lower lip with the knuckles of his fingers and thought.
"Hungry...... It hurts...... Where am I? ”
With a burst of Nicos muttering, the discussion between Tengen and Hercules was temporarily suspended......
