After the guards and others all retreated, the hall resounded with the sound of discussion, except for the dozens of people involved, no one discussed anything, only knew that after more than ten minutes, those who came out of it were all excited, and then they urgently summoned forces, and a posture of arming up for war.

Some of the adventurers in Xia City had different reactions after discovering this move to gather forces, but without exception, it didn't take long for several adventurers to leave Xia City and rush towards Wutong City, Tuocheng and Yonghe City.

……

More than thirty minutes later, in a side hall of the City Lord's Mansion in Wutong City, Dao Zhen, Tang Lie, Hua Ying, Ji Jing and others, who had just dissolved the meeting, gathered together again, because the city lord was not there, they were not qualified to discuss matters in the main hall without authorization.

"Hua Ying, why did you suddenly call us again just now, is there something wrong?" As soon as the four of them sat down, Ji Jing hurriedly asked.

There was no selling, Hua Ying explained: "I just received the news that Xia Cheng is urgently gathering people and making a posture of arming for war. ”

"The news is not reliable, is it aimed at our Sycamore City?" Tang Lie frowned and asked.

"The truth of the news should be correct, but it's hard to say if it's not for us in Wutong City, and there is no follow-up information for the time being." Hua Ying said and looked at the knife marks: "The head of the knife marks must have also received the news." ”

"That's right, I also just received a report from my subordinates, and I was about to negotiate with you when I received a summoning message from Hua Ying." Knife Scar nodded in confirmation.

"Where's the lord of the castle?" Ji Jing also frowned, looked at Hua Ying and asked.

Hua Ying smiled bitterly when she heard this, and said a little helplessly: "I have already looked for it before you came, the city lord and Li Yan and Li Ran entered the copy of the Dark Plains together, I am afraid that it will not appear in a few hours." ”

Ji Jing and the three of them were silent, so coincidentally when the city lord entered the dungeon, the news came. Xia Cheng's move to reorganize the army for war is self-evident.

After a while, Ji Jing said again: "The straight-line distance from Xia Cheng to Wutong City is fifty kilometers, and the actual distance is much more, if Xia Cheng wants to take advantage of the city lord's absence to launch a surprise attack, it will take an hour or two to march on the road alone, even if it is a fast march, it will take about an hour at the speed of the professional level, after all, the march is not a race, it is not just a quick run." ”

"But if it's a quick ride, even if it's in the shortest time possible. It is absolutely impossible for the tired army of Xia City to launch an offensive, not to mention, with the thousand mercenaries under the head of the sword mark regiment, plus the power of the terrain, it is still possible to hold Wutong City in a short time, and the city lord of Xia City should not be so stupid. ”

"Otherwise, it's a matter of life and death in Wutong City, and you must not be careless, just in case, it's better to take some precautions early." Don Lie opposed.

"That's right. This matter should not be careless, everyone must be prepared, especially the head of the knife scar regiment, and always be ready for battle. Hua Ying agreed.

"In that case. I will transfer half of the patrol team in the city to the city wall, and at the same time, the remaining half of the patrol team must always ensure that they can rush to the city wall to participate in the defense at the first time, and at the same time strengthen the exploration frequency of the surrounding scouts. Especially in the direction of Xiacheng. "Worthy of being a war mercenary, the knife has made a series of arrangements in the blink of an eye.

Nodding, Hua Ying added, "At the same time, send one person to guard the dungeon hall. Ensure that after the city lord appears, he can know the news and control the overall situation. ”

With that, the other three nodded, and then left the side hall to make various arrangements.

……

In the Dark Plains......

"Brother Chu, how many zombies are there, they won't go on like this forever." Li Ran dodged the attack of a zombie next to him sideways, and complained while fighting back.

With Chu Kun's mention, coupled with the tempering of these zombies, Li Ran has made a lot of progress in just one hour.

"It's almost over, there will be a total of 300 of these little zombies, and so far we have killed about 250 of them." Chu Kun said in a calm voice: "And you pay attention to the surrounding situation, is there no longer any other zombies jumping out now." ”

Hearing this, the two women looked at the periphery of these zombies, and it was true that there were no new zombies coming out of the ground, Li Ran was a little envious, she didn't find this seemingly simple problem: "Brother Chu, you are observing so carefully." ”

"In battle, you should always pay attention to the details of the surrounding environment, details determine success or failure, and in the case of equal strength, maybe just a small detail is enough to turn you into a winner." Chu Kun preached Li Ran and said: "Even if your strength is higher than that of the other party, there is definitely something that cannot be careless, how many powerful people are overturned in the gutter because of the details." ”

When Chu Kun spoke, the war knife in his hand was horizontal in front of him, blocking the attack of a zombie in front of him, his right leg was raised, and he swept towards the chest of another zombie next to him with a roar, "Bang!" The tremendous force caused the zombie to fly straight upside down, and at the same time, its body sank slightly, and its shoulder slammed into the zombie that was blocked by the Killing Intent Blade.

Chu Kun slightly controlled the force of the impact, so that this zombie just "kicked and kicked" a few steps back and opened up some distance, and before this zombie could pounce again, Chu Kun's killing intent sword swept, "Poof!" With a bang, he was already beheaded.

Fifteen minutes later, the remaining fifty zombies, the last zombie also fell under Li Yan's ice crystal pendant.

Li Ran let out a long breath and said happily: "It's finally over, otherwise, if you go on like this, you will be smoked to death by them if you are not killed by these zombies, I really don't know if they usually don't take a bath." ”

Li Yan threw away the bottle of energy-restoring potion in her hand, pursed her lips and smiled at Li Ran's complaint, and shook her head a little helplessly.

"Be careful, this is just to solve the little minion, and the copy hasn't been cleared yet." Chu Kun glanced around and said with a faint reminder in his mouth.

Hearing this, the two women immediately moved closer to Chu Kun, guarding against the situation around them.

The three of them paced forward, and the dragon wandered beside Li Yan, and there was no sound around him.

"Stop." Chu Kun suddenly paused, and then looked at the ground not far ahead, the black dirt floor did not seem to be any different from the surroundings, but if you looked closely, you could find that compared to the surrounding ground, the small area that was only two meters in a radius was relatively drier.

Four or five meters away from the dry right side, there is a wetter place, which makes the already black dirt surface a little darker...... (To be continued......)
