Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Storm Rises (2)
"You said that your town was attacked by demons?" A middle-aged man who looked square and a little dignified asked Hu Guang.
Hu Guang pretended to be frightened and said: "My lord, if it weren't for the fact that the villains lived far away from the direction where they were attacked at the beginning, and the villains reacted quickly enough, then the villains would have been buried in the mouth of the demons." As he spoke, he patted his chest gently, as if the scene of the escape that day still made him frightened.
"Well, I know, I'll report this matter to the city lord as soon as possible." The founder man, who is also a centurion, nodded after listening to Hu Guang's words, obviously believing Hu Guang's words.
Xu Ming quietly gave Hu Guang a thumbs up, I have to say that Hu Guang's performance was really perfect, and even Xu Ming felt for a moment that what he said was true, and he was worthy of being a person who had mixed in the underground world in the real world. The ability to disguise is to be strong, to see people and talk to people, to talk about ghosts, and to act on the spot.
"You guys come with me into the city first, we need to hurry up when time is running out." The centurion said to Xu Ming, Xu Ming and they naturally nodded gratefully.
The group rushed towards the city not far away, raising dust all the way.
……
"Little Liuzi!" A hideous-looking tall demon shouted at the huge team behind him.
"King! The little ones are in! A skinny demon responded.
"How long will it take to get to that Breeze City?!"
"If you go back to the king, it won't be long, we will be there soon, I just went to check the surrounding area, and found signs of human activity, and it was not long after leaving, I think we are close to Qingfeng City." Xiao Liuzi said respectfully.
"Haha~! Good! Then let's take the Hado clan first! Wait for my demon clan to meet the hundred clans, see who dares to underestimate my Hado clan! The tall demon roared in high spirits.
"Roar~! The Hados will win! The Hados will win! Long live the King! Long live the King! ”
As expected, the many demon clan members below were still jubilant, as if what their leader said was right.
"Little ones! Hurry up for me, try to take this city for me today, and then we'll have a celebration in the city!" Do you want to have a human flesh celebration?! "The tall demon clan is obviously not without brains at all, he knows that he must fully mobilize the passion and morale of his subordinates before the battle, which will make his trip a lot smoother.
"Roar~! Human flesh! Human flesh! Food! Food! The emotions of his subordinates were fully mobilized by the tall demons, and with it came a high fighting spirit.
……
On this side, Xu Ming and the others had no idea that a large number of demons were approaching them, although they were speeding towards Qingfeng City under the order of the centurion, but their leisurely mood was incomparable to the state of the demons.
Half an hour later, the lazy team of centaurs finally saw the outline of Qingfeng City, and Xu Ming was stunned the moment they saw that city, and the same Hu Guang and they were also stunned.
Not because the city is so grand, or because of how unique the shape of the city is, but because the city is almost reminiscent of a city! If it weren't for the centurion's reminder, it is estimated that Xu Ming and the others would have thought that it was a relatively large township!
"What about the majestic atmosphere?! What about the grandeur of the promise?! Xu Ming couldn't help but slander in his heart.
To say that this is a city is really a bit reluctant, and it can barely be said that there is a silhouette of a city, that's all! Other than that, it can't be imagined that this is the only city within a radius of 100 miles!
With the same thoughts as Xu Ming, Hu Guang and others were also shocked by the simplicity of this city, and there was no daunting feeling at all.
Of course, Xu Ming's thoughts and those cavalry would not know, on the contrary, they thought that Xu Ming was an old man in the countryside and had never seen the world, so they were shocked when they saw such a majestic city.
"Haven't you ever seen a city like this? Think it's huge? Majestic?! A cavalryman around Xu Ming asked with a smile, but that smile was full of disdain and contempt.
Xu Ming turned his head to look at the cavalryman, and instantly understood what this cavalryman meant, it was nothing more than mocking them, thinking that they were hillbillies and old hats. Xu Mingcai wouldn't care about anything with this kind of ordinary person, but was very cooperative with this self-righteous fool.
"Huh? Yes~! I've never seen a city like this, it's so powerful, it's hard to imagine what kind of person can build like this. Xu Ming replied pretendingly, looking like the performance of an old country hat.
The cavalry was very proud and proud of this, as if he was a general who had won the battle, and glanced at Xu Ming and them with even more disdain. Especially when he saw Xu Ming and the tattered clothes of several of them, his brows furrowed even deeper, full of disgust and disgust.
"......" Just as the cavalry was about to say something, a cavalryman at the rear who was in charge of reconnaissance rushed towards the front of the line as if he had lost his soul, shouting something loudly while speeding up his horse.
When this cavalry approached, Xu Ming and the others heard clearly, "Escape~!" Run away~! The demons are coming to attack! That's a lot, a lot! ”
"What?!" The centurion apparently heard the cavalryman's shout, and said to a centurion beside him with a look of disbelief.
"My lord, let's run for our lives!" The ten-captain said tremblingly, obviously frightened by the word demon.
"Speed up and flee to the city~!" The centurion's mournful voice sounded, which immediately caused chaos, and at this time, no one thought about guarding Xu Ming and them anymore, and they all rode their horses and rushed towards Qingfeng City.
"Captain, what about us...?" Hu Guang asked as he hurried.
"Keep up, don't fall behind, let's go to the city first, although this city is not very good, but it is also a city anyway, even if the people of the demon clan want to attack it, it will take a certain amount of time" Xu Ming said in a deep voice.
"Well, good!" Hu Guang nodded, and at the same time turned his head to the newcomers and said, "Did you hear what the captain said?" Don't fall behind, and keep up with the cavalry in front of you, or we'll have to abandon you. After that, he stopped paying attention to these newcomers who were no different from the walking dead.
"Little ones! Chase me harder! I've seen them! The city is also close at hand, and the human meat feast is in the city, if you want to eat, hurry up and follow me! The tall demon clan in the lead finally appeared in the eyes of everyone, accompanied by a tide of all kinds of demon soldiers.
"Run~!" I don't know who shouted, but the cavalry, who were still slightly in formation, completely scattered.
In times of crisis, people's hearts are really selfish, no one thinks about what happens to others, and even some people swing their butcher knives at their former companions! Simply because he was blocking his way of escape!
"Li Si, get out of the way! Don't get in the way of Lao Tzu! ”
"Bastard! Zhang San, you bastard! How dare you swing a knife at me! ”
"Zhao Si, get out of the way!"
……
Situations like this are constantly playing out here, and the centurion is even more unbeatable, leaving everyone far behind, not caring that most of these people behind him are his robed brothers!
The inferiority of human beings is undoubtedly manifested at this moment.
Xu Ming doesn't have anything to say about this, it's not the first time he's seen such a thing, I believe this won't be the last, what brotherhood is deep, that is not a crisis to test, only a moment of crisis or life and death can see who is the person who is good to you, who is the duplicitous person.
Seeing too much, he is also numb, Xu Ming will not have the slightest mood swing because of this, but those newcomers are making a fuss there.
"What?! How could those people do that! ”
"They're comrades-in-arms, brothers! How could such a thing happen! ”
"This must not be true, is the education I have received for so many years all fake?!"
……
In the end, Xu Ming stopped this unnutritious exclamation, "Okay! Concentrate on keeping up with those cavalrymen, or something better will happen in a moment. ”
Although the demon soldiers behind him shouted, it was Xu Ming and his group that were closer to the city point, so the group came to the edge of the moat without danger.
And in this place, the inferior nature of human beings was once again revealed, and the centurion was desperate to cut down the suspension bridge to ensure the safety of his life after crossing the suspension bridge, but fortunately his intention was discovered by Xu Ming, and Xu Ming stopped his crazy behavior with a little means.
Of course, Xu Ming also exposed his behavior to the sun, and in the face of the anger of the cavalry, the centurion wisely chose to shut up and sneaked into the city.
And at this moment, the army of the demon clan has also completely arrived at the edge of Qingfeng City, and the big war is about to break out!
