Chapter 271: I Alone Are an Army
After dealing with the things in front of him, Tasuri's projection disappeared in the villa, and at the same time, on the other side, in the luxurious suite of the Supreme Hotel, Su Wen, who was closing his eyes and recuperating, slowly opened his eyes.
The arrangement of things over there in the City Lord's Mansion does not mean that Su Wen can relax.
In fact, in the past few days, he has been collecting intelligence.
Unlike other newcomers, Suwen had a huge initial advantage in Mtase, which was that he had information about almost all of the city's permanent population, which made him familiar with this unfamiliar city, so that everything would go smoothly. And all of this is basically thanks to Donald, and the information in the pit dad system is far less detailed.
In Su Wen's opinion, Mtasecheng was like a big beauty, and Donald washed and stripped this beauty, not to mention, and sent it directly to his bedside, as if deliberately testing his concentration.
Well, if it was really a big beauty, Su Wen might not be interested, but he still can't understand why so many men are fascinated by the matter of mating, and even give up everything. But it seems to be given directly to the city of Mtase...... It was a little hard for him to refuse, whether it was from a long-term strategy or from a short-term tactical preparation, the city could bring too much to himself. Before he came to Mtase City, he initially just wanted to show Laetitia a tour of this notorious concentration of villains, but after meeting Donald, he suddenly opened a full map to make the original intricate forces clear, which is simply not human if he does not do anything about it.
So he smashed the Yellow Dragon and took down Lucius, who was the lord of the city, in an instant.
And once this node is opened, even if the city lord does not actually have full control over the city, the streets and urban areas are still complex gang forces, as if forming an armed division and dividing the land, but the core trouble has been solved.
No, there are some things that have not been weighed well, and you need to take the initiative to solve them yourself.
He was going to leave Mtase City for a while, as short as a few days, or as long as a month, and although he had made detailed arrangements before that, he might not be able to enter and leave freely when he was three or five mages, but there was still no room for any difference. At least when leaving Mtase, he had to make sure that the city was clean and tidy, and that he set a good example for those who wanted to come in later.
At this time, Su Wen had quietly left the Supreme Hotel in the night, but his target was not the inner city, but went straight to the outer city where dragons and snakes were mixed, passing through the bustling streets on the surface, and going deep into the gloomy and dark fork in the road.
Anyone visiting the city of Mthase for business or travel must buy a dedicated map to visit. The map details which areas are safe, which areas are worth visiting, and ...... Which places should not be visited. The last part accounts for about 60% of the content of the map, and is composed of the territories where the major gangs are entrenched, and most of them are permanent residential areas, slums, and shady trading places - the serious trading places in Mtase City are considered to be invisible in the civilized world, and the shady places in Mtase City will be terrifying, you can imagine for yourself, anyway, you are not confident in your own strength, do not enter these places at will. These places are not for guests from afar, and if you break into them by mistake, there is a good chance that you will never come out alive.
Su Wen was deeply convinced of this.
Because he had just penetrated less than 100 meters into the fork in the road, he felt that he was being targeted.
There don't seem to be many people around, and the architectural style is no different from the main road outside, but the eerie atmosphere and the sight of the non-existent can make people instantly realize that this is definitely not a peaceful place. And at night, compared with the brightly lit city that never sleeps in the main city, there are very few lights here, only the light pollution and the noise from the distant sky, which proves that the distance between the two worlds is only a few hundred meters, especially the whispers in the darkness and the sound of squirming and moving, which seem to indicate that danger is very close.
Sure enough.
When Su Wen turned the corner of a street, he saw two tall figures blocking his way, and just as he stopped, several figures slowly came out of the deep darkness.
Su Wen watched their performance quietly with a smile on his face.
The man at the head was full of muscles and scars, with a height of nearly two meters, and he knew at a glance that he was not a good person, he came to Su Wen and looked down at him condescendingly, as if he was looking at a little sheep.
"Young lad, are you ...... Lost?"
He said slowly in a kind tone, just with this appearance and the surrounding scene, if it was a normal person, he would probably be too scared to move at this time.
But Su Wen smiled shyly at him and asked rhetorically, "Your name is Horn?"
The disguised kindness on the other party's face immediately disappeared and became cautious.
"Who are you?"
"I'm here to take care of some things, this is the territory of the Pterodactyl Gang, is your boss Hegel here now?"
"No, if there's anything, just tell me. ”
"You may be mistaken, I'm just asking you out of politeness, now Hegel is in a luxurious villa 400 meters southeast of me, and there are about 70 people hidden in the underground warehouse 20 meters below him, among them are logistics personnel, shield soldiers, magic squires, guard knights, and of course, a top high-level magician, just forming a standard imperial mage group. These people are from the military of the Xihuai Empire, and the mage regiment is called the Lion, and they dispersed into the city of Mtase yesterday evening, and then came here to assemble, and were received by your boss Hegel, is that so?"
Su Wen said this in a kind and harmless tone, but the audience couldn't remain as indifferent as him, and before he could finish speaking, he saw that the scarred strong man led by him nodded quietly to the people around him, and two of the latter quietly retreated and left. And he himself, along with the rest of the people, drew his weapons and gathered around Su Wen.
When he finished speaking, he found that he had already added a sword.
Su Wen saw that this group of people was murderous, so he had no choice but to continue to persuade: "The reason why I confessed to you is that I hope you will be wise enough to protect your life, so that you can still leave a ...... Not. ”
The other party also seemed to be well aware of the principle that the villain died from talking too much, and he didn't intend to let Su Wen finish his words, so he said the first half of the sentence, and the two blades on his neck were cut down hard. It's just that this time there was a tooth-aching sound of rubbing between metals, and in a stirred spark, the two fine steel knives directly turned into curly blades.
Su Wen was not annoyed by this, he touched his neck in hindsight and coughed lightly.
Then, he said to the people who looked like they had seen ghosts in front of him, "I know you are not involved in this matter, so you better get out of here as soon as possible, or your safety will be threatened." ”
With that, he raised his foot and walked around the scarred man who stopped in front of him, and went straight to the deeper part of the road. This group of people didn't dare to stop him for a while, so they watched him walk out of the encirclement.
But not everyone will be stunned.
"Wait!"
The scarred man named Horn was the first to react, and he turned around and grabbed Su Wen's shoulder, trying to control him.
"You don't want to pass ...... like this"
He stopped abruptly halfway through this, because he suddenly felt his arm cold, and the strength of his body could no longer be transmitted to the palm of the person in front of him, and it was not until half a second later that the sharp pain that had come in the past made him understand what had happened—he screamed, and suddenly withdrew his arm, only to see that his palm had disappeared with half of his forearm, the incision was smooth as a mirror, the bones, muscles, and blood vessels were all clearly visible, and the blood gushing out of the fault of the artery was like a small fountain.
And the young man has gone far.
......
Five minutes later.
Su Wen came to the luxurious villa, but it seemed to be heavily guarded, not only were all the doors and windows tightly closed, but a twisted translucent shield had risen around the villa, cutting it off from the outside world.
But this was already expected.
The purpose of his coming here was, of course, to take out the lion mage group that the Xihuai Empire had secretly sent to Mtase City.
Of course, the Xihuai Empire has not only sent this force to infiltrate Mtase City, but for now, this mage warband is the most threatening force, so it has naturally become Su Wen's primary target.
Not only did he want to kill them, but he wanted to kill them with great fanfare.
Although a single great magician is powerful and like a god in front of ordinary people, it is not impossible to defeat by manpower, after all, the caster at this stage has not been able to completely break away from the category of "human" after all, and there are various flaws and limitations. But if a Grand Mage forms a warband with a large number of followers in front and behind who provide protection, assist in spell casting, and replenish the elements, then their combat ability and endurance changes greatly increase, and they become a tireless elemental turret, unleashing tons of output magic in large-scale battles.
At present, after hundreds of years of baptism of war, the main armies of various countries on the continent have long evolved from primitive large-scale infantry and cavalry phalanxes to such a magician wargroup of about 100 people. Each clan has one or more core casters, and the role of the rest of the team is to better assist the core casters. Under the concerted efforts of the whole city, many high-level mages as the battle group can even release forbidden spell-level magic, and in terms of output, they are no longer inferior to the mages who fight alone.
Such an existence should generally only appear on the battlefield or in large-scale battles, and the Xihuai Empire secretly arranged a magician warband in the uncontrolled city of Mtassa, and it is natural to see what it wants to do. So far, their plans seem to have been successful, with tens of thousands of people in Mtase City every day, it would be easy to get sixty or seventy people into it, and these people only need to stay in the arranged basement for a while, and when the time comes, they will be able to explode with great destructive power.
But they would never have thought that their every move had already been seen in their eyes.
What Su Wen did was not complicated, he categorized the information he had, and then highlighted those forces that were more closely related to the two empires. Although the city of Mtase looks loose, it is full of eyeliners, and Lucius will have snowflakes of information floating in every day, and these materials are delivered to the eyes of "Tasuri" one by one. Su Wen remotely categorized the information of these floating populations, and at the same time sent tiny surveillance robots to each of the highlighted strongholds, which were either attached to tree trunks, hidden in the cracks of walls, or placed on eaves...... In just three days, the city of Mthase has formed a Skynet system of tens of thousands of cameras.
What's more, not only the streets, but also many surveillance robots have infiltrated the stronghold, monitoring their every move, and every word or even everything of these people will be recorded as it is.
So, which faces went to which forces' stations, Su Wen naturally knew clearly.
Now is the time to clean up.
Su Wen stood in front of the villa, inspecting his invisible exoskeleton armor, as well as a polymer cutting blade mounted in a scarlet scabbard.
Everything works fine.
He nodded, as if sensing that the time had come.
Immediately afterwards, he took out a huge tweeter, turned on the microphone, cleared his throat, and pointed it towards the heavily guarded luxury villa, making a majestic and solemn sound.
"Everyone inside listens, you are already surrounded, don't do useless struggles, lay down your weapons, and surrender immediately!"
