Chapter 10: The Crisis
In the next few days, more sect disciples rushed to Youfeng Town one after another.
Wei Ziqi has also seen the teams of those sects, the three major sects are all led by Nirvana-level elders, and the core disciples of the transcendent realm are the backbone, with some disciples of the transcendent realm who have come to practice.
And those small sects are much worse, basically they are two or three transcendent cultivators, plus some mortal ranks to form a team.
When Wei Ziqi left, he took Estes with him, and with the powerful strength of the middle rank of the super S queen, he successfully shocked the people of those sects.
Therefore, although they still had doubts about the existence of the great sage Pachuali, they finally restrained their demeanor and no longer posed in front of him.
And just as Wei Ziqi had worried before, there were many places where these sect disciples and the local adventurers were incompatible, and conflicts occurred from time to time.
Fortunately, Zhao Licheng took strong measures and forcibly suppressed all the conflicts. Coupled with the fact that the people with blood teeth helped to appease the adventurers, there was no bigger mess.
However, all this only subsided temporarily, and Wei Ziqi could feel that there was already an undercurrent surging under the seemingly calm water.
"Something is wrong, it seems that someone behind this is secretly fueling the flames and provoking a conflict between the two sides. ”
Wei Ziqi stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with his hands in his hands, looking at the town with tall towers outside, thoughtfully.
"The people of the three major sects should also sense that something is wrong, so they will take the initiative to cooperate and restrain the disciples under them. ”
He once again felt the embarrassment of lack of manpower, and he couldn't even find anyone around him to collect and inquire about the news, let alone the staff who discussed and helped him with advice. Everything has to be solved by himself.
"It's still not enough. ”
Wei Ziqi sighed.
"What's wrong?"
Estes walked over and asked.
"Think of a little thing. ”
Wei Ziqi turned around, smiled and hugged her into his arms, his chin resting on Estes' shoulder, and looked at the scenery outside.
"I don't know how long the current calm will last. ”
He just stared out the window.
"Woo ......"
At this moment, a shrill siren tore through the peace of the town, and instantly spread throughout Youfeng Town.
"What's going on?"
Wei Ziqi's face changed, let go of Estes, took two steps forward, and stuck to the window.
"I am Zhao Licheng, the commander of the garrison legion, and I announce that Youfeng Town has entered the highest state of combat readiness. ”
"Repeat, Youfeng Town has entered the highest state of combat readiness!"
"Something's wrong!"
Wei Ziqi immediately judged that something was wrong: "Let's go, go to the command post." ”
After saying that, he called Pache and led the two out of the inn, walking quickly in the direction of the command post.
At this moment, groups of black-armored garrison legionnaires appeared on the street, holding swords and serious faces, trotting towards their defensive positions.
Coming to the courtyard where the command post was located, Wei Ziqi showed the pass pass to the guards at the door and walked in.
The people of the three major sects have already arrived, and the heads of the remaining small sects and the main forces of Youfeng Town have also entered the courtyard one after another.
Wei Ziqi and the three of them found an unobtrusive corner and sat down.
When the last representative of the force who was eligible to sit arrived, two black-armored guards stepped forward and closed the heavy door.
Boom!
The dull sound of the door closing seemed to sound in everyone's hearts, and the hearts of everyone present jumped, and a depressing atmosphere slowly grew.
The sound of armor colliding sounded, and Zhao Licheng, who was dressed in heavy armor, walked out with his lieutenant Leng Yangyun and walked out.
With a serious expression, he walked to the front of the hall and stood still, glanced at the group of people sitting below, and slowly spoke.
"You must have guessed what I was going to say. ”
Airplanes!
With a hum, the formation engraved on the floor in the center of the hall suddenly lit up, and then a projection suddenly appeared.
"Shhh
Seeing the above image, everyone gasped and only felt their scalps tingle.
I saw that on the projection, countless fierce beasts were densely packed together, slowly moving in the same direction. As far as the eye could see, he could only see the bodies of countless fierce beasts, and he could barely see the edge of this team.
Zhao Licheng's tone was heavy: "This is the image detected by the omniscient eye. As you can see, this beast tide has completed its integration, formed a scale, and is moving towards Youfeng Town. According to our forecasts, the vanguard will arrive by tomorrow afternoon, and possibly even tonight. ”
"What?"
Although they had already seen the image, everyone couldn't help but be shocked when they heard Zhao Licheng's words.
"Why did you only get the news now!"
Someone asked loudly.
Zhao Licheng said solemnly: "This beast tide is different from any previous time. The beast's movements are very secretive and orderly, and there is a dedicated scout unit. The Eye of Omniscience that we deployed was all but destroyed, and the image was transmitted from a surviving Eye deployed in the perimeter alert area. ”
Looking at the ugly faces of the people, Zhao Licheng's tone was unprecedentedly serious: "I hope everyone can have a clear understanding of this beast tide." According to the exact information we have obtained, the number of king-level fierce beasts in this beast tide has exceeded ten, and the number of lord-level beasts has exceeded thousand! This power is almost enough to wipe out the entire Youfeng Town. And once Youfeng Town misses, then the entire Qingyan City is in danger of falling!"
An Shucheng also stood up and said solemnly: "Not bad." Now that we are 100,000 times of urgency, I hope that everyone can put aside their prejudices and work together to fight the enemy. The reinforcements from Youfeng Town are coming, and the city lord will also stay in Youfeng Town to fight side by side with you. In addition, several sect elders, I hope that your sect can send earth-level powerhouses to support. Otherwise, there will be no eggs under the nest, and once Youfeng is destroyed, the century-old foundation of your sect will also be destroyed. ”
The heads of the three major sects glanced at each other with solemn expressions, and they all saw the heaviness in each other's eyes.
"Please rest assured, Lord Lord, we will immediately ask the sect for help. ”
The three persons in charge solemnly agreed to Anshu's request.
"Thank you, three elders. ”
Anshu showed a straight face and bowed.
Seeing that the people of the three major sects agreed, the heads of the other small sects also said that they would ask their respective sects for help.
An Shucheng thanked them one by one, and a faint smile appeared on his serious face: "With the unity of all of you, I believe that Youfeng Town will definitely survive this catastrophe." Rest assured, after this time, I will definitely show you your merits to Zhenlong City. ”
Next, Leng Yangyun stepped forward and began to assign defensive areas to everyone. Among them, the defense area assigned to by Wei Ziqi is the most important of almost all areas, and it is also the most dangerous place to face.
This surprised everyone for a while, but Wei Ziqi looked as usual.
He had expected this, after all, there was a heaven-level and an earth-level on his side, so it was not surprising that Zhao Licheng would arrange it like this.
It's both a trust in him and a focus on that area.
In other words, in Zhao Licheng's eyes, only if there is a Heavenly Rank in charge, that place can be guarded. This also made Wei Ziqi feel a little pressure.
After all, although Patchouli has the strength of the Heavenly Rank, she is actually not the Heavenly Rank. Her ability to sustain combat is a concern.
"It's a pity that there aren't enough merit points now, otherwise it would be much easier to draw out another four-star character. ”
Wei Ziqi sighed.
When everything was arranged, the crowd dispersed.
Wei Ziqi did not leave, but stayed. He knew that Zhao Licheng should have something to say to him.
Sure enough, after the rest of the people left, Zhao Licheng walked over.
"Commander Zhao. ”
Wei Ziqi bowed in front of him.
"Dean Wei. ”
Zhao Licheng stood still in front of him, his eyes fixed on him.
Suddenly, he bent down and bowed deeply to Wei Ziqi.
Wei Ziqi was startled, and hurriedly dodged sideways, and at the same time planned to reach out to help him: "Commander Zhao, what are you doing." ”
At this time, An Shucheng, who was standing behind Zhao Licheng, shook his head lightly at him.
Wei Zi started to stagnate, and froze there to accept Zhao Licheng's salute.
Zhao Licheng maintained a bent and bowed posture for a while, before straightening up, and then stepped aside.
Then, Anshu Cheng also stepped forward and bowed deeply as well.
Wei Ziqi was already numb, and just stood there, without any reaction.
After the two of them bowed, he said in a daze: "Two adults, what kind of trouble are you making here?"
Zhao Licheng's expression was serious, and he said: "This salute is not only to apologize to Dean Wei, but also to arrange this dangerous task for you without communicating with you. At the same time, on behalf of all the people of Qingyan City, I also petitioned Dean Wei, asking you to do your best to help Youfeng Town tide over this difficulty. ”
Wei Ziqi frowned: "Is the situation serious?"
Obviously, if the situation had not really reached a moment when it was almost dangerous, the two would not have made such a big gift to him.
They did this in the hope that Wei Ziqi would stay and resist the beast tide with all his might.
After all, the Supreme Academy was above the Heavenly Dome, and the beast tide could not affect them at all, so Wei Ziqi could completely walk away. And there is a Heaven Rank powerhouse on his side, if he wants to leave, no one can stop him.
Sure enough, Zhao Licheng nodded with a sad face: "It's in danger!" It can be said that even if Jiqing Yancheng goes all out, it will be difficult to stop the pace of the beast tide for a day. ”
"So serious?" Wei Ziqi was surprised.
An Shucheng said in a deep voice, "What is on the image just now is only a small part of the power of this beast tide. The real main force of the beast tide did not dare to announce it at all. ”
"What does a real beast tide look like?"
Wei Ziqi asked with a frown.
Zhao Licheng sighed: "Come with me, Lord An got an image, which was sent directly from the Eastern Wilderness City." ”
After speaking, dragging heavy steps, he turned around and walked towards the side hall.
Wei Ziqi looked at An Shucheng, the once majestic city lord looked extremely depressed at this time, as if he was aging in an instant.
Seeing Wei Ziqi's gaze, An Shucheng smiled reluctantly: "Although I have left the Eastern Wilderness City, I still have a relationship with the past." ”
Seeing him like this, Wei Ziqi's heart became heavier and heavier.
What kind of momentum is this beast tide, which can make these two people so frightened, they are almost without fighting spirit.
He could see that at this time, the two of them almost had no hope in their hearts to resist the beast tide, and Wei Ziqi even doubted that if it weren't for the presence of Patchouli, a Heavenly Rank Venerable, the two of them would have cut themselves off in despair.
