Chapter 281: Wild Men and Ghosts in the City Guards!
It didn't take long for Chu Xun and the others to meet outside the Red Iron City and converge.
There is no need to say much about the process of the battle, because they were blinded by the superficial strength of everyone, so except for the blonde woman who dealt with Chu Xun was a fourth-order ability, the people who were sent to deal with Chu Hang and the others were even some quasi-fourth-order or third-order peak abilities.
Perhaps, in their opinion, these fledgling boys are simply not worth sending stronger people to deal with.
However, with the combat power of less than the fourth order, he dared to fight the idea of Chu Hang and the others, which was undoubtedly asking for his own death. So after almost no fierce fighting, those desolate people were almost wiped out, and the only one left became a vegetative person, and was thrown by Chu Hang in the mountains and forests to die.
"Brother, they changed their clothes and went into the city!" Not long after Chu Xun and the others met, the bear child also sent a message again, but his voice became more solemn: "They are more alert than I imagined, and there was not even any communication along the way, and no useful information was revealed. ”
"Got it, you keep following!" Hearing the bear child's words, Chu Xun was silent for a moment, and then said to Chu Hang beside him: "Chu Hang, you go to support Shiyu." These desolate people are not simple, let's be careful! ”
"Yes!" Chu Hang nodded, then his body moved slightly, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a shadow and merged into the shade of the tree, disappearing without a trace.
"Let's get ready for battle!" After letting Chu Hang go to support the bear child, Chu Xun was also a little relieved. With the abilities of Chu Hang and Xiong Child, even if they encounter a fifth-order powerhouse, they can at least protect themselves.
And the next thing they have to do is to wait for the bear child to find out the inner ghost of the desolate man, and then see if they can find out the leader of the desolate man.
Judging from what happened before, this leader of the desolate people is only afraid that he has already controlled the vast majority of the desolate people. So as long as you kill this leader, then naturally you can also kill other people and completely eradicate these disgusting guys.
Fearing that the communication would cause the desolate to notice, the communicators remained quiet for the rest of the day. It wasn't until half an hour later that the voice of the bear child sounded again in the communicator: "Brother...... These men went into the city guards...... They're actually from the City Guard! ”
"City Guard?" Hearing the bear child's words, Chu Xun was taken aback. The city guard is the core force that guards a city, and it is generally managed by the most trusted person of the city lord, just like Chu Feng and Chu madmen at the beginning.
That's why Chu Xun was surprised by this, he didn't expect that these desolate people would actually be mixed into the city guards!
In this way, an even more terrible thought also emerged from his heart.
The city guard is an important place for city defense, and even if it is a member of the city guard, unless it is on duty, they are not allowed to enter the city guard station. On the other hand, if they are on duty, they cannot leave their duties without permission, otherwise it is a felony.
And now these desolate people can freely enter and leave the city guard, so does it mean that the high-level people in the city guard are also desolate?
What's more, the city guard station controls almost the entire city's city defense weapon force, and if they are really ridiculous, then things are only more troublesome......
"Damn, even the city guards have been mixed in, how many desolate people are there in this city?" After being silent for a while, Chu Xun gritted his teeth and said, "Shiyu, continue to follow, don't alarm them, and see if you can find more desolate people!" ”
"Yes!"
Hearing Chu Xun's words, there was also a response from the bear child's side, and then the call ended.
"It's almost certain that there must be desolate people in the city guard who have mixed up in the top positions." Seeing Chu Xun end the call, Yang Lingcai frowned and said: "The city guards control most of the city's city defense weapons, if it really makes a big fuss, then the whole city will be shrouded in the artillery fire of the city defense weapons, and the casualties will be big at that time." ”
Speaking of this, Yang Ling hesitated for a moment and said, "Otherwise, let's tell the city lord of Red Iron City about this matter first, so that he can also find a way to lock up those city defense weapons in advance." Even if there is a fight, there is only a limit to the threat that these desolate people can pose. And after all, this is in someone else's city, and the director of the city defense team must also be a close confidant of the city lord, if we do it directly without saying hello, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble. ”
"You're right!" Hearing Yang Ling's words, Chu Xun nodded and said, "We must inform the city lord first, otherwise if we cause a misunderstanding, we may fall into the situation of being attacked by the enemy." ”
Speaking of this, Chu Xun paused, and then continued: "You two are here waiting for news from Shiyu and Chu Hang, and if anything happens, you can rush over to support as soon as possible." As for the matter on the city lord's side, let me talk to him. ”
"Yes!"
Hearing Chu Xun's words, Zhang Xie Yang Ling nodded at the same time. Chu Xun was the captain of their team, and it was naturally best for him to do the things that he communicated with the city lord.
After instructing Zhang Xie and Yang Ling, Chu Xun went to the City Lord's Mansion alone and made a request to see the City Lord.
Although the city lord of Red Iron City, "Crocodile", did not have a good impression of Chu Xun's hairy boys, but after all, the other party was from Sky City, and he also took over the task of the Bounty Union headquarters, so for the sake of the face of Sky City and the Bounty Union, Crocodile still agreed to Chu Xun's request and asked people to bring him to the conference room for discussion.
"Tell me something directly, right?" After seeing Chu Xun, a trace of impatience suddenly appeared on the crocodile's face, and then said in a cold voice: "I still have a lot of things, and I don't have much time to spend with you." ”
"We've learned a few things about the investigation of the desert incident." Chu Xun didn't care about the crocodile's impatient expression, but said directly: "We deliberately divided our troops to operate outside, lured out some of the desolate people, and then captured them alive, trying to ask for some specific information about the desolate people. But it's a pity that these people are all controlled by the leader of the desolate people, and once they are asked a confidential question, they will be controlled to commit suicide, or they will directly become unconscious idiots,"
Speaking of this, a trace of coldness flashed in Chu Xun's eyes, and his voice became cold: "However, there are still some desolate people who were deliberately let go by us, and then we also followed behind them, hoping to find out the inner ghosts of the desolate people in Red Iron City." As a result, we found out that these desolate people turned out to be members of the city guard, and they could come and go freely in the city guard. Crocodile City Lord, do you know what that means? ”
"You mean, there's already a barren mixed up with the top of the city guard?" To be able to serve as the city lord, the crocodile's IQ is certainly not low, so he reacted quickly, his eyes were cold, and he said in a deep voice: "The high-level members of the city guard are all descendants of my family, and they are loyal to the family, are you sure you are not mistaken?" ”
"Loyalty to the family doesn't seem to have much to do with whether you're a desolate person or not, right?" Chu Xun smiled coldly and said, "And everyone knows that although becoming a desolate means falling, it will also gain stronger power. In this world where the strong are respected, it seems that the thing of becoming a desolate person because of the desire to become strong has never been broken, right? ”
Speaking of this, Chu Xun's eyes also became even colder: "Perhaps, that inner ghost will have great power precisely because he has become a desolate person, so he was chosen by you?" ”
"This ......" Hearing Chu Xun's words, the crocodile fell silent for a moment.
He knew that what Chu Xun said was right, in fact, only a small number of people who became desolate people were due to lack of food, and more people sold their souls and bottom lines in order to become stronger, and became desolate people who fed on their own kind.
And although the descendants of those big families can get supplies far beyond the commoners, they are also under unimaginable competitive pressure from the commoners. Under the effect of this terrible pressure, it seems that it is not impossible to choose to abandon the bottom line and become a desolate person!
"Okay, anyway, we've almost found the person, how to decide is your own business!" Seeing that the city lord was silent, Chu Xun said lightly: "My personal opinion is that you had better find a way to ban the city guards' control over the city defense weapons first, otherwise once they jump over the wall in a hurry and use the city defense weapons to attack, then the Red Iron City will be over!" ”
"I know how to do it!" Hearing Chu Xun's words, the Crocodile City Lord nodded, and then said in a deep voice: "Lead the way, if there are really people in the city guard who are desolate, I will personally take action and clean up the portal." As for the city defense weapons, you don't have to worry about these, I have my own way to make them unusable. ”
"Okay, come with me!"
Hearing the crocodile city lord's words, Chu Xun nodded, then turned around and prepared to take the crocodile city lord to the city guards to find out those desolate people.
Since the crocodile said that there was a way to control those city defense weapons, then he didn't have to worry. And more importantly, with the presence of crocodiles, a fifth-order powerhouse, it is even more unlikely that those desolate people will make much trouble.
However, at the moment when Chu Xun turned around, a fierce sense of crisis suddenly emerged from his heart, as if he had been locked by some terrible enemy!
And the direction from which this sense of crisis came was behind him!
