Twenty years ago, when Wang Xu was exiled by his cheap daddy elf king, and came to this place with more than 500 human servants to establish Hill City, those human servants had not yet divided into classes, and everyone was equal in status and strength, and it was a relationship of cooperation and survival.

However, in 20 years, relying on the super reproduction ability of human beings, the population of the human race in the city has exceeded 2,000 people, and because of the human will to continue to forge ahead, the human beings in the city have gradually produced classes according to the level of strength and the size of their power.

Nowadays, there are the so-called "four families" in Hill City, in fact, these four families are a joke in Wang Xu's eyes, because, among the four major families, the most prosperous family is only about 150 people, and the least, only about 40 people.

The four major families in Hill City include: the Mage Family, the Taylor Family, with a population of more than 60 and the patriarch is Liv Taylor, the Alchemist Family, the Hor Family, with a population of more than 150 and the patriarch is Yarman Haul, the Engineer Family, the Moore Family, with a population of more than 100 and the patriarch is Bodwin Moore, and the family that betrayed the city lord Wang Xu, the Fighter Family Lehman Family, with a population of more than 70 and the patriarch is Barrow Lehman.

Two days ago, when Ramirez and his army of snowy orcs surrounded the hills below Hill City, the three families of Taylor, Hauer, and Moore suddenly discovered that the Lehman family was suspected of betraying and collaborating with the enemy.

A day earlier, the three families had found evidence of Lehman's collaboration with the enemy - a letter from the Lehman family's patriarch, Barrow Lehman, to Ramirez, including how to open the city gates and how to send signals. Even, including how to distribute the benefits after the city is broken, and so on.

After finding evidence, the three families conspired together in silence, and that night, they raided the headquarters of the Lehman family, placing everyone in the Lehman family under house arrest. He even killed the hardliners in the Lehman family, including Barrow Lehman, the patriarch of the Lehman family.

To say that the killing of the remaining three families because of the betrayal of the Lehman family is not absolutely the case, the deeper reason may be that the three major families are in order to divide the interests of the Lehman family. That's why all the important combat power in the Lehman family was slaughtered.

Everything is for his own interests, no matter when, no matter where, no matter whom, it is the same, this is what Wang Xu knows best. That's why he let the four major families grow bigger. Let them contain each other, so that they with elven backgrounds can just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and watch their constant internal friction. When they are all exhausted, they can support the new family and watch the tiger fight again, anyway, they are all fools with no foresight.

However, in the event of an invasion by a foreign enemy. The remaining three families are still united, after all, almost all of their vested interests are in Hill City, and they have to protect their own interests.

Among these three major families, there are also some people who want to take refuge in the enemy, but after seeing the tragic fate of the Lehman family, these people with the intention of betrayal immediately cut off this heart, because the patriarchs of these three major families are determined to fight to the end with an enemy army dozens of times their size.

The reason why the patriarchs of these three major families dared to use a small city with a population of only 2,000 to deal with the enemy army besieging the city to the end was not because they were really afraid of death, but because, as early as the first day of the siege, they sent people out of the tunnel to the territory of the elf clan to ask for help.

In the two days that Ramirez sent troops to attack the city, the three major families have lost a lot of children, and many civilians have died in the city to help defend the city.

At this time, they admired their cheap city lord Wang Xu a little, because all the details of the city were designed by Wang Xu, whether it was the staircase with nine curves and eighteen bends on the mountain, or the two smooth slopes around the small hill, they were all defensive measures that made the besiegers mad and crazy, if only the defensive power, this small city of 2,000 people was more difficult to capture than a giant city with a population of 1 million.

At this moment, the patriarchs of the three major families standing on the city gate and the branch presidents of the various trade unions were all looking at the strange scene below the hills without knowing why.

Since the early afternoon, explosions have been occurring in the enemy's barracks, and the thick smoke of gunpowder has completely covered the hills, and the people on the city wall cannot see what is happening below, and can only judge from the continuous flashing fires and deafening explosions in the smoke that the enemy barracks are still exploding.

Wang Xu's old friend, the necromancer Zay, asked the beautiful matriarch Liv Taylor beside him for the thousandth time: "What do you say is happening down there, why is it chaos, could it be the reinforcements of the elven clan?"

"I don't know. After replying to Zai weakly, Liv Taylor glanced at Zai with a wry smile, if it weren't for the fact that he was a powerful necromancer and had a great help in defending the city, Liv Taylor would have taken a brick from the city wall and slammed Zai to death.

"Didn't you send someone out to spy a long time ago, and haven't you come back yet?" XY didn't consider Liv Taylor's painful emotions at all, and continued to nag endlessly, and the content of his nagging was almost the same, which made Liv Taylor feel the urge to pull out XY's hair and scratch countless blood marks on his face.

"Haven't you been watching here all along, we've all sent out four waves of spies, but they haven't come back, how do you want me to answer you?" Liv Taylor tried her best to suppress her annoyance, and replied to Zay from between her teeth.

Liv Taylor is only twenty-five years old, both in stature and appearance, she is second to none among the Terran women in Hill City, but if you count the elven women who live in the city, she can only barely rank in the top five, after all, in the elven race, there are almost no ugly people, which is incomparable to the Terrans who are full of ugly people.

Just when Liv Taylor was about to hold back Zay's nagging and her ladylike image was about to be ruined, a wave of spies sent out returned...... (To be continued.) )
