503 Close the gates

The sound of violent tremors in the wasteland became more and more obvious. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The huge tide of green spider beasts formed by hundreds of thousands of spider beasts was approaching, less than one or two dozen miles behind the Li caravan, and it was only afraid that a rapid wave would quickly overwhelm it.

Ye Fan's cold ice palm forced back the green spider beast king, and he didn't dare to look back, and together with the three martial kings, escorted the Li family's caravan to Emperor Valley City at full speed.

The small group of green spider beasts that were chasing after them was only a small and insignificant vanguard of the huge beast tide.

There were also some other small green spider beasts with fast speed, which were already on par with the Li family's caravan, and some even rushed to the front, fighting chaotically with other martial cultivators who had fled.

For more than ten miles around the Li family's caravan, a large number of fleeing Terran martial cultivators could be seen everywhere, and their caravan had long been scattered by the green spider beast, with heavy casualties, and the rest of the people could only desperately flee.

Under the joint protection of Xiong Zhi and several other martial kings, the Li caravan barely maintained an intact guard formation, which was already a miracle among the many ragged caravans.

Ahead, only about twenty miles away from Emperor Valley City, everyone in the Li caravan could already see the tall and majestic walls of Emperor Valley City clearly.

As long as you rush into Imperial Valley City, you will be safe.

Emperor Valley City is the first city in the Dongzhou Terran Frontier, with countless high-level martial arts cultivation, and the city's defense strength is even more amazing, this huge tide of green spider beasts will definitely not be able to impact this impregnable defense line.

"Everyone, hurry up, rush over!

Li Qingyun shouted excitedly at the caravan.

"Thanks to Brother Ye's action, it seems that our luck is not bad this time, and we actually escaped back safely!"

Xiong Zhi laughed.

Liao Wenyan, Liao Hai, Miao Sheng and other hundreds of businessmen and Wuhou bodyguards all showed excitement and joy, and their eyes were full of hope for escape.

...

Emperor Valley City is home to the ten major heavy regiments of the Zixuan Dynasty, and it is a first-class military town.

However, not all the corps have been in the Imperial Valley City, and these regiments will take turns to leave the Imperial Valley City to go to Zhongzhou to "hunt" and earn some extra money to subsidize the Legion.

The rest of the corps, some of which are responsible for guarding the city, and some of them will take a long break due to the wear and tear of the war.

Usually only three corps were in charge of combat readiness in the city.

On this day, the banner of the Fire Ox Regiment flew over the head of the Imperial Valley City, and the flaming flags were as eye-catching as a burning torch, and a large number of soldiers wearing Xuan armor were on duty at the head of the city.

This month, it is the Fire Ox Corps who is on duty in Imperial Valley City and is responsible for the security of Imperial Valley City.

The Great Wasteland was in chaos, and tens of thousands of panicked martial cultivators, merchants, and adventurers fled in the direction of Emperor Valley City.

The city of Emperor Valley has long been alarmed by the tide of green spider beasts and the crowd fleeing outside the city.

The thousand-zhang high city has an excellent view and can be seen hundreds of miles away.

"Look, there are so many people running for their lives in the wasteland, what happened?"

"It seems like there's a tide of green beasts chasing them!"

"Damn, it's a tide of green spiders.... The Green Spider Beast Clan is a common low-level Beast Clan, and it is not a problem. But once it forms a scale, it is a big problem and an extreme headache. ”

The soldiers guarding the city looked at the huge tide of green spider beasts in the distance, and their faces couldn't help but change slightly, and they talked about it.

Emperor Valley City has a very strong defense, and it has been some years since a large group of beast tides dared to harass Emperor Valley City.

Today's tide of green spider beasts came very suddenly.

A young martial king general with a grim expression was patrolling the city wall, and when he saw the large tide of green spider beasts that broke out outside the city rapidly approaching Emperor Valley City, his face couldn't help but change, and he ordered in a deep voice: "Close the city gate immediately! Don't let the tide of green spider beasts rush in! I'll go and ask the commander of the corps how to deal with it!"

"But General Zhou Jin, there are still tens of thousands of merchants outside the city who are still fleeing for their lives, and they have not fled into the city! If they are locked up outside the city, I am afraid they will lose their lives!"

Many low-level soldiers asked in surprise.

For the safety of the city, the castle is forbidden to the sky, and there are a large number of air defense facilities in the city. No one is allowed to climb over the walls and fly through the air at any time, otherwise they will be killed by the city guards.

This also means that once the gates are closed, the castle will be completely closed.

The tens of thousands of merchants outside could not enter Emperor Valley City, and they would probably die under the tide of green spider beasts.

Tens of thousands of lives, the loss is huge.

"Is their lives important? Or is the safety of Emperor Valley City important? Close the gate immediately! Without the order of the commander of the Hong Corps, no one is allowed to open the city gate without permission, otherwise it will be punished by military law!"

The young general Zhou Jin snorted coldly, his stern gaze swept over the soldiers, ignored them anymore, and quickly went down to the city to inform Hong Ran, the commander of the Fire Ox Regiment.

The soldiers didn't dare to say much, hurriedly rotated the hub, slowly put down the million-pound heavy black iron heavy gate, and "boomed" to close the ten gates leading to Zhongzhou in Emperor Valley City.

At the head of the city, all the soldiers were armed with weapons and were ready to fight a big battle with the green spider beast tide that attacked Emperor Valley City.

...

The Li clan's caravan and tens of thousands of martial arts merchants were getting closer and closer to Emperor Valley City, and seeing that they could only rush into the city and escape with their lives at the last ten miles, they couldn't help but be full of joy and joy, and almost burst into cheers.

However, before they could rejoice, they saw that the gates of Imperial Valley City began to fall.

Except for a few thousand martial cultivators and merchants who were very close to the city gate and were able to escape into the city in time. The rest of the tens of thousands of people who fled were still far from the city gates, and they could only watch the ten city gates fall.

"No——! don't close the door!"

"Wait a minute, we don't have a city yet!"

The crowd of merchants and martial cultivators who were fleeing for their lives in the distance towards Emperor Valley City were suddenly frightened and shouted in a hurry.

But it didn't work.

Their loud cries and shouts could not stop the gates from falling.

"Bang!"

The heavy sound of the Xuantie City Gate falling to the ground shook the hearts of tens of thousands of merchants and martial cultivators who had fled back outside the city.

Seeing that they were about to flee into the Imperial Valley City, they were all locked outside the gates of the Imperial Valley City!

"It's over, the caravan is over!!"

Li Qingyun looked at the heavily falling gates of Imperial Valley City a few miles ahead, and couldn't help but stop running with all his might, the excitement on his face completely disappeared, replaced by a face full of despair and coldness.

Only four or five miles away, the Li caravan was about to rush into Emperor Valley City.

But at this time, he was locked out of the city gate.

"Closed?"

Ye Fan's face also changed.

In his calculations, as long as the defense was properly maintained, the Li caravan could barely escape back to Imperial Valley City before the Green Spider Beast Tide, and try to minimize the caravan's losses.

But the only thing that was missing, Emperor Valley City would actually close all the city gates in advance!

The safety of him and Gu Xinyue suddenly lost the most important guarantee.

"It's over! We can't enter Imperial Valley City! We actually closed the city gates, this is to make us die outside the city. ”

"What can we do? Why don't we fly up the walls and flee back into the city?"

The fleeing crowd was terrified and desperate, and some people shouted loudly for ideas.

With the realm of all martial cultivators, many of them are above the realm of Wuhou, and it is completely possible to fly directly to the city wall of thousands of zhang.

The point is, the question of whether you dare to do so.

"You are crazy, flying is strictly forbidden in the sky above Emperor Valley City, and the city is full of strict garrisons! If you dare to fly up, you will definitely be killed!"

Someone objected.

Most people know that there are a large number of city defense equipment and a huge garrison formation on the wall of the Emperor Valley, and if you fly up directly, it will impact and interfere with the garrison formation, regardless of whether it is a human race or a beast race, and the impact of the army formation is unforgiving.

The tens of thousands of people who fled did not dare to fly directly to the head of God Valley City.

"I don't believe it, we have tens of thousands of people here, and they dare to kill innocents indiscriminately! It is a dead end under the city, and flying up to the city is also a dead end, it depends on whether they dare to kill us!"

There was Wu Xiu shouting frantically.

Immediately, there were more than a dozen martial marquis who were not afraid of death, and they flew in the air to the head of the thousand-zhang high Emperor Valley City, wanting to fly over the city wall and enter the city. (To be continued.) )
