Chapter 66: Thousands of Troops (I)
I leaned on a low wall on the edge of the Fifth Block, using the eaves of an aristocratic mansion as a shelter, hiding my figure and observing the city below.
On a normal day, this kind of behavior is very risky, whether it is the low wall at the edge or the bright lights of the fifth block, it is easy to reveal my location, but today the situation is special, because the important people have gone to the central square, there are no people here on weekdays, only a few patrol teams remain. The lights are also a lot dimmer, but it makes it easier for me.
However, this kind of behavior is also risky, if it weren't for worrying about the affairs of the Tong Emperor, I would definitely not waste my time here, or make any dangerous moves.
However, the fifth block is also hundreds of meters away from the underground city, and it is not a very realistic thing to see what is happening concretely.
Fortunately, the central square was brightly lit, and I could still see the crowd in the dark, and there was a commotion in a few corners, and I could also see the rapid entry of troops dressed in completely different clothes, like a sharp sword thrust into the crowd and stirred, and many people were arrested quickly.
Seeing this scene, I was a little worried in my heart, I don't know if there is a Tong Emperor among the people who were arrested? I don't understand why such a riot happened in such a short period of time? But after thinking about it, if it was Emperor Tong, he shouldn't be caught with his hands tied, anyway, since the soldiers are divided into two ways, I'd better do my job first.
After all, the situation was not out of control, much better than I had imagined, and the army below was already calming the crowd, so I didn't have to worry too much, so I lightly climbed down the low wall and continued to advance towards the upper block.
There was a setback on the Tong Emperor's side, but I seemed to have been lucky all the time, and the success has always been with me.
In a short period of time, I actually went up to the tenth block, not to mention the danger, not even the thrill, although on several occasions because of the terrain, I was not able to hide myself, but the patrol squads seemed to be very slack, did not probe carefully at all, and let me dodge.
So it took me less than half an hour to get from the fifth block to the tenth block, and the tenth block is already a height that I have never reached before, and there is a special terrain here.
Compared to the other blocks, which are all spaces that run through the upper floors of Qinglong City, the tenth block is more like a cliff, connected to it by three bridges.
As I cautiously walked to the tenth block, I realized that I didn't need to hide my body anymore.
Just because there were no commercial buildings or aristocratic mansions in the 10th block, at least as far as the eye could see, there were all neatly lined up military camps.
I came up from the road to the edge of the rock wall to the bridge, and when I saw the orderly troops, they had already spotted me, presumably from the time I walked on the way from the ninth to the tenth layer.
Standing on this side of the bridge, I could hear the wind from above, but there was no sound at all.
The troops and I confronted each other in silence across three suspended bridges, except that I faced off against thousands of troops alone.
The soldier standing in front of me, dressed in fine armor, had drawn his great bow, which looked rather heavy, and the sharp arrows shimmered, all pointing at me silently and silently the moment I appeared at the bridge.
I took a rough look, and there should be nearly a thousand large bows facing me.
The three bridges were 100 meters long, and I could imagine that as soon as I stepped on the bridge, the soldiers would loosen their bowstrings mercilessly, and according to the heaviness of this great bow, the person who could pull it away must be a man of great strength, and I had no doubt that their range could be extended to 100 meters.
What to do? It was the first thought in my mind, the wind was blowing my cloak and rinsing, and strangely, I wasn't flustered, and I even had time to think, had I been caught up in a conspiracy in the first place? But it may not be so complicated, since the twelfth order is called a legendary place by the people of the dungeon, it must be stationed like this on weekdays.
Thinking of this, I unfastened my cloak, and it didn't feel very good to be blown by the wind in the cold sky.
At the moment when I took off my cloak, I also silently pulled out the long sword I was carrying on my back, perhaps I had not drunk the blood of the enemy for thousands of years, and at the moment when the hilt of the sword was held in my hand, in the face of the momentum of the opposing army, I actually felt a buzz of excitement from the long sword, but I did not retreat in the slightest.
I glanced down at the sword in my hand, unpretentious, and said silently in my heart, 'From this moment on, you will be my partner in battle, and I hope you will drink the blood of the enemy with me in the midst of thousands of troops, but you will not flinch.' ’
As if feeling my bitterness, the long sword stopped the excited humming, and there was an inexplicable kindness in my hand, and my soul power began to flow naturally to the long sword, and it was like a dry land, and began to absorb my soul power, just like a weapon that had accompanied me for a long time, in the process of absorbing soul power, there was no sense of obstruction and stagnation.
In just two or three seconds, I established a battle partner relationship with the sword, and I only stayed on this side of the bridge for two or three seconds, and then walked towards the bridge with my cloak in one hand and the sword in the other.
The army on the opposite side didn't expect that I would dare to face thousands of troops and horses alone, go on the bridge alone, and walk in the middle, isn't it easier to make myself a target?
My actions filled the demon general riding a tall black horse with doubts, and he couldn't help but shout across the bridge: "Who are you?" Don't you know that this is a forbidden place? ”
I looked up at him, but didn't speak, and the moment he shouted this, I already knew that it was not my miscalculation that I had fallen into a conspiracy, but that this place was a heavily guarded place in the first place.
Now I don't have any makeup to disguise, and when I tear off my cloak, I reveal a human face.
The wind blew my black hair, and my expression became more and more calm, which made it even more difficult for the general to decide, after all, with a completely human face, there may be two types of extreme identities, one is naturally a human slave with no status in the dungeon, and the other is probably the most top-level demon.
Just like Jiu'er, Feng Liu, and even the Mo Master who glanced at him in a hurry, they almost didn't have the slightest characteristics of the demon clan, at most they were just a little different from ordinary people, such as Feng Liu's arms were very long and something like that.
It is estimated that this kind of thinking made this general undecided, how could an ordinary slave go to the tenth floor unscathed? But I'm holding a sword, and it's clear that I'm an enemy again?
Recently, there have been several powerful enemies in Qinglong City, but none of them are humans.
One step, two steps, three steps At the moment when the general shouted, I had already walked almost ten steps on the hundred-meter-long bridge, and the next should be the bottom line of the vigilance, and the general finally couldn't help shouting: "Stop moving forward, report your identity quickly, otherwise don't blame me for the ruthlessness of the Qinglong Army." ”
I still didn't pay attention to the general, and at this moment, the central formation pattern that suddenly opened with all my strength attracted a huge power of heaven and earth, and even in the oppressive dungeon, there was a feeling of sudden change of color.
It was also at this moment that I felt my soul, the incomparably strong soul will was at least a third stronger than before, what does a strong soul will mean? As long as there is enough soul power to allow the soul to grow, then the soul will also be more than one-third stronger quickly! That means that I can withstand more of the power of heaven and earth, absorb more power from heaven and earth, and replenish my soul power without worrying about soul shattering.
This is the essence of demon hunter practice! The source of strength - I am strong.
The moment I felt him, I even felt the power of my breath, and I also felt the Ten Thousand Soul Flower, which became vibrant.
It has always had two petals that were curly, one of which had stretched out with the increase of the toxin when absorbing the poison of my soul, and then curled it back, but now this petal is stretched out by a third, and the toxin that used to be green all over the petals has turned into a touch of pale green on the edge of the petals, as if it also felt my concern, swaying slightly in my soul, making me feel that it belongs to me Ye Zhengling, whether it is a weapon or other power, it is a belligerent madman.
When the heaven and earth changed color, countless powers of heaven and earth frantically poured towards me, I had never absorbed the power of heaven and earth so presumptuously, but what came was not the swelling pain of the past, but a refreshing feeling from the soul full of strength.
Without any hesitation, this power all poured out of my limbs, and the Wind Formation Pattern opened, and it was the first time that the hole had opened to this extent, and I finally felt that I had touched the true power of this Formation, and it had more space! It can even follow my power to a natural process, as long as there is a formation master's move, it can form a perfect heavenly formation.
There was no need to be silent anymore, the infusion of power made me roar comfortably, and the long sword in my hand was finally raised, pointing at the troops who were looking at each other from afar.
And the appearance of the power of heaven and earth, so that the general finally did not have to hesitate my identity, if it were not for the enemy, it would be impossible to make such a big movement on the bridge, in his eyes, I clearly used a large-scale spell.
"Shoot!" The general raised his hand, and then fell heavily, a simple command that already signaled the beginning of the battle.
Sure enough, he is a decisive general, otherwise he would not have been sent to garrison such a heavy place, right? As soon as something was wrong, it was immediately a thunder action, and I watched silently, and at this moment, countless arrows infused with soul power shot towards me at a rapid pace.
The powerful sound of arrows breaking through the air kicked off the battle.
