Chapter Sixty-Seven: The Storm in a Small Town
Seeing that I had succeeded in my plan, I smiled slightly and said, "Really?"
Pan Zong patted his chest and said, "Of course it's true, with me here, what else can the two of them say." "Indeed, Panzong is still a great deterrent to gold and silver.
"Then I'll thank you big brother in advance. ”
"Then my wife's problem ......"
"Don't worry, brother will definitely help you match the most beautiful beauty dragon. If the brother doesn't help the brother, who will?"
............
My wish was granted, and after another ten days, the colorful glow still did not appear again, and the small city could no longer be described as lively, and there were hundreds of thousands of human beings gathered in the whole city, not only that there was no place to put their feet in the city, but also that tents were set up everywhere outside the city. Prices at hotels in small towns have tripled in just 10 days. Even I, the initiator, were surprised by this outcome.
It may be that sensing a potential crisis, the dragon god sent a large number of troops to guard the White Smoky Mountain, but this is exactly what he wants to cover, and the appearance of a large number of regular troops of the Dragon God Empire has not dispelled the idea of this group of explorers, but has increased in number, and even some mercenary groups have come to the small city. Looking at their appearance, it seems that they are all lucky.
In the past ten days, I have transformed several times and flew to the periphery of the White Smoky Mountain to explore at night, although the whole mountain range is still quiet, but the layout of the regular army of the Dragon God Empire has improved a lot, no longer a single guard on the main peak of the White Smoky Mountain, they have set up a three-layer defense network in the front direction of the small city, with a total strength of more than 60,000, which is really a cost. I secretly lamented the defeat of the commander of the Dragon God Empire, and the more he did this, the more he would arouse the interest of the group of explorers. I once wondered why they didn't use troops to surround the small city, but then I realized that the people of the Dragon God Empire were mainly afraid of causing panic, and besides, although the people in the small city had different intentions, after all, most of them were samurai and magicians, and if there was a real conflict, I am afraid that this mess would not be easy to clean up. It seems that the purpose of the Dragon God Empire is just to deter them, but can human greed really deter them?
Hotel room.
I smiled and said, "Big brother, second brother, second sister, it's time for us to leave today." ”
Pan Zongleng said: "What are you going to do?"
I smiled and said, "Let's go to the main peak of the White Smoky Mountain." ”
Jin suddenly said: "Yes, now the defense of the main peak is not as tight as before, it is too advantageous for us to go to the main peak and wait for the appearance of the colorful glow, good idea." ”
"Or the second brother understands my thoughts, in the main peak of the White Smoky Mountain, we can almost see what is happening in the entire mountain range, and when to choose how to make a move, when to make a move, the initiative is in our hands. I guess the colorful glow should appear soon in the next few days. Big brother, let's go out and buy more food, and we'll leave in the evening. ”
When night fell, the three of us quietly sneaked out of the small city, bypassed the crowd gathered outside the city, and quickly came to the periphery of the Dragon God Empire's defense in the White Smoky Mountains.
The clouds in the sky obscured the moon's rays, making it dark around. The soldiers of the Dragon God Empire no longer lurked in the mountains as before, they set up a camp here, and the camp was brightly lit and looked so dazzling in the night. Patrolling bands of soldiers patrolled the outside of the camp almost non-stop. It seems that the defense is very tight.
Silver suddenly whispered, "Be careful." Panzong and I subconsciously lay down, holding our breath, there was a sound of breaking the air in the air, I tilted my head slightly, and through the afterglow, three dragons flew over us and landed in the center of the camp.
The four of us looked at each other, and Panzong said dissatisfiedly: "Fourth, how did you explore the road, how come there are still dragon knights patrolling, with these nasty guys, how can the action be carried out after a while?"
I scratched my head, the first few times I came, I really didn't find the dragon knights, could it be that they strengthened the guards again.
Jin said in a low voice: "It may not be a patrol, since the colorful glow is so important to the Dragon God Empire, they must have put the most powerful power around the cave that the fourth brother said, just now I peeked and found that the dragon knights on the backs of the three dragons were carrying baggage, and it was very likely that they had just been transferred from elsewhere to strengthen their defenses." ”
I nodded, "Possibly, we'll wait and see, if no dragon knight appears within an hour, we'll act." ”
Yindao: "Actually, it doesn't matter, even if there are dragon knights patrolling, they may not be able to find out about our plan. ”
Jin Dao: "It's better to wait, be careful, once you are found and entangled by the dragon knight, it will be difficult to get out." ”
After a while, the three dragon knights who had just landed in the camp took off again, and they flew towards the peak where the multicolored glow appeared. It seems that Kim's judgment was correct. I gave Kim a thumbs up.
Panzong said in a low voice, "Let's get started." ”
I nodded and said to Jinyin: "Second brother, second sister, you are guarding here, I will help the eldest brother." If there is a situation, speak out. As he spoke, Panzong and I stepped back ten meters, Panzong looked at the surrounding terrain, and then looked at the location of the Dragon God Empire's camp, pointed to a large bush and said, "Fourth, it's here." ”
I pulled out the ink from behind, under the infusion of dark magic, the ink suddenly emitted a thick black sword, I motioned to Panzong to step back a little, I rose into the air lightly, the ink stroke down, silently inserted into the bushes, the wrist quickly shook and followed the sword, the ink Ming drew a wonderful circle with a diameter of two meters in the middle of the bushes, turned around, and I gently fell to the ground.
Putting the ink away, I glanced at Panzong, the blue light flashed in Panzong's eyes, and a transparent soundproofing barrier covered me and the bushes and the surrounding radius of 20 meters, I took a deep breath, and my whole body emitted a thick black mist, which was instantly covered with this soundproofing barrier. Under my control, the black mist formed another layer of light-insulating barrier within the soundproof barrier.
I looked at my masterpiece with satisfaction, stretched my arms, and exclaimed, "*." I squatted down and slowly injected the yellow mangs into the ground, I carefully controlled the mad god's fighting spirit to move to the bushes that I had just cut with ink, and a piece of cone-shaped ground suddenly broke away from the bushes and slowly moved away. I wrapped this piece of ground with dark magic, quietly held it in the air, and then removed the light-blocking barrier, Pan Zong jumped over in understanding, and sent a voice to me: "I'll go for a while, you can block it, I have a way to ventilate, and after that, I will come back to pick you up." As he spoke, he shook his body as he chanted the incantation, revealing his true form, and he twisted the ground a few times, making a slight rustling sound, and I looked around vigilantly and breathed a sigh of relief when I saw that there was nothing unusual. The purple snake head in the center of the Panzong pointed at me, and the four physical attack snake heads suddenly poked into the soil hole that we had just dug out.
Our method of passing through the front barrier is actually very simple, that is, digging a tunnel to go through, from here until passing through the three lines of defense, I am afraid that it is nearly ten miles long, if there is no Panzong, a digging expert, we will not consider this method at all. In order to prevent the patrols of the Dragon God Empire from discovering the tunnel, Panzong had to fill the excavated soil around when he was digging, and he couldn't dig it out, which made it even more difficult for him to complete.
As Panzong's body on the ground gradually disappeared, I knew that he had already started digging, hoping not to encounter any granite or other terrain. I carefully put the cone back in the clod, leaving no trace on the ground, as if nothing had happened.
I leaned back to Jin Yin, and Jin asked, "How is it?" ”
"Big brother has already gone down, let's just wait here for him to get through, and we will succeed. ”
It wasn't until dawn that Panzong came out of the crypt again, he sealed the cave, and fell beside us with a pang, and he looked tired.
"Big brother, how's it going. ”
Pan Zong smiled bitterly: "Fourth, you came up with a good way, almost exhausted me, the terrain below is extremely complicated, I have encountered a total of two underground springs, five huge granite, although the granite is hard, but it is relatively easy to do, the soil around the underground river is very soft, almost buried me in it." In the end, I barely succeeded in using earth magic to push the excavated granite around the tunnel. According to my estimates, about half of the progress has been carried out, and it will take at least one night to get through, hurry, give me something to eat and drink. ”
I didn't expect it to be so difficult, and I actually made Panzong suffer so much, and said apologetically: "I'm really sorry big brother, I didn't know it would be like this." Why don't we think of another way?" I said as I took food and water from the mustard seeds and handed them over.
Panzong glared at me, gulped down the water, and said after a while: "Forget it, I've already dug more than half of it, if I change the way, didn't I do it in vain?" It's almost dawn, let's all go down later, I made a few secret vents in the tunnel, although the air is relatively thin, but it is enough to support survival." ”
After eating for a while, Panzong suddenly said, "Go down now, I'll eat after I go down." I feel like I'm not safe here. ”
The three of us quietly came to the top of the tunnel, and under the protection of the soundproof and lightproof double barrier, I opened the entrance to the tunnel again, and Panzong jumped down first, followed by gold and silver. I was the last to jump down with the clod, and when the top was covered by the cone again, the tunnel went dark. I hurriedly gathered a small fireball and lit up the surroundings, and when I got through the tunnel, I knew how powerful Panzong was. In order to avoid being discovered by the Dragon God Empire troops on the ground, he dug down for three zhang before digging forward, and the Yongdao was indeed as Panzong said, although the air was thin, he could still breathe.
The whole tunnel is about 1.5 meters high and 1 meter wide, and I have to squat down to do it.
When we got here, we all relaxed, and we no longer had to worry about being discovered by the Dragon God Empire troops above. Yin knocked on the smooth earthen wall and exclaimed, "Boss Panzong, I didn't expect your work to drill the hole to be really profound." ”
Panzong took a bite of the bacon in his hand, glanced at the silver, and said, "Gao Shen's fart, I'm almost exhausted." Otherwise, you'll be able to drill it later. ”
Yin waved his hand again and again: "Forget it, it's still big brother, you can work hard." ”
Yin, the eldest brother, suddenly called Pan Zong's eyebrows and smiled, as if the fatigue had disappeared. "Since my brother and sister say so, I'll make it difficult for me, I'll sleep first, and you can eat something and rest for a while, and then continue when I regain some strength." So saying, he lay down on the side of the tunnel and fell asleep.
Panzong woke up and continued to dig, me and Jin Yin followed behind him, Panzong's huge body quickly slid forward in the cave, the soil and stone in front of him automatically separated, every time he advanced a length, he would shake his body in place to make the cave wall strong, no wonder it would be so laborious, the eldest brother was really serious about his work. Whenever he came across granite or underground rivers, he would stay for a long time and slow down.
I don't know how long it took, Panzong stopped again, he turned back into a human form, his face was pale, the snake man didn't sweat, and his body temperature was very low, if he was really a human, I'm afraid that just sweating could make him prostrate. He gasped and said, "I...... I'm ...... No...... Come on. Should...... Almost...... Rest...... After a moment, I will ask ...... Drill up and out ...... Just go...... Done. "Don't say he's tired, he's been squatting, and even my body is a little paralyzed.
After resting for a while, Panzong puffed up Yu Yong and wanted to dig up close to three zhang again, he climbed down and said, "I estimate that there is still about half a zhang from the ground, fourth, it's up to you." ”
I nodded, came to the bottom of the exit, I could finally stand up straight, I stretched my body, pulled out the ink shadow, raised it high, my feet were strong, I jumped up, when I was close to the top, I used the dark magic, and suddenly, a wisp of black light emerged from the tip of the ink sword. Still obliquely around, I felt that the black mangs had penetrated the ground, and a cone was also drawn (this time there was no cone tip, because there was a cave about one meter and a half in diameter below, but still the upper circle was larger in diameter, and only in this way could I ensure that the exit soil cover would not fall off). )
I fell back to the ground lightly, and Pan Zong said, "Don't rush out first, let's cultivate for a while first, and wait until I am back in my best condition." It's safer this way. ”
............
I looked at the energetic Panzong and the gold and silver, and they each gave me a determined gaze. With a slight jump, I jumped up, legs apart, and braced against the walls of the cave on either side.
With his arms in full swing, the yellow light of the mad god's fighting spirit illuminated the cave in detail. Taking a deep breath, I slowly lifted up, and the ground above me with ink slashed and fluttered down, and I let out a low cry, and the black light around my body was flourishing, forming an enchantment, completely blocking the falling dirt. I carefully urged the earth elementals around me to re-condense the dirt back and reinforce it with dark magic. When I felt that this exit would no longer be deformed, I stepped on the cave walls on both sides with my feet, and with a kick, I floated up with the large clod of earth above, and when the clod of soil was out of the ground, a breath of fresh air came to my face, and I felt a slight chill all over my body, and the person had come out of the cave. It was actually night outside, although it was out of my imagination, but it also made me happy in my heart, I carefully held the clod of soil, first took a deep breath of fresh air, and suddenly felt that my whole body seemed to be refreshed, and turned my head to look around. There was silence all around, surrounded by tall trees, and not far away, there was still the camp of the Dragon God Empire. After a day underground, I turned a little, and it felt as if I was still on the periphery guarded by the soldiers of the Dragon God Empire. I whispered into the tunnel, "Come out." ”
Two figures "flew" out of the tunnel lightly, landed beside me, gold and silver vigorously sniffed the fresh air, my face was intoxicated, I carefully put the clod of soil back in place, only to see, there is only some sparse grass on the clod, but if you don't look carefully, you won't find anything. We touched up around the edge of the exit, and now, unsuspecting people should never find out.
I asked Pan Zongdao, "Big brother, where are we?" "He drilled the tunnel, and of course he had the most say.
Panzong looked at the camp of the Dragon God Empire, then looked around, smiled, and said: "I have a good sense of direction, there is nothing wrong at all, you see, the camp of the Dragon God Empire is diagonally below us, that is to say, the terrain here is much higher, which proves that not far behind us, it should be the White Smoky Mountain." We did it. Ha ha. ”
Looking at his proud appearance, I was also a burst of joy in my heart, in the dark night I didn't dare to easily use the mad god fighting qi (when the fighting qi reached a certain level, it would emit a specific color of light every time it was used, it was irrepressible), and the dark magic power fluttered down on the top of a big tree, although it was dark night, but I could still clearly see the tall white smoke mountain behind me, and in front of me, was the camp of the Dragon God Empire composed of ten thousand lights, the camp was meandering, in a semicircle around the front of the White Smoky Mountains, the corner of my mouth showed a sneer, slowly floated to the ground, and said to Panzong and Jinyin: "Let's go, go to the mountain, and then we'll have to wait for the opportunity. ”
In this way, we entered the main peak of the White Smoky Mountain purely on foot, and I did not take them to the cave where they were cultivating and hiding, which was relatively close to the bottom of the mountain, and if there were dragon knights patrolling, it would be very bad for us to survey the colorful glow, so we went to the top.
The mountain wind was bitter, and the large clouds were wet under the wind.
"Fourth, in which direction did the colorful glow appear last time? ”
I pointed to a not-so-tall peak in the mountains and said, "That's it, this cloud is a nuisance." "Because the surrounding clouds are very dense, there are often clouds blocking our view, but fortunately, at this high altitude, the wind is generally stronger, and the sea of clouds is unpredictable, when the sea of clouds under our feet is blown away by the wind, we can see the situation of the whole mountain range.
Panzong and Jinyin looked in the direction I pointed, and Jinyin suddenly said, "Look, is that a dragon knight?" ”
I fixed my eyes, and sure enough, more than a dozen figures of various colors were flying in the air above the mountain range, it was the dragon knight, "There are so many dragon knights patrolling, it seems that the dragon god empire has been alerted to the atmosphere in the small city." ”
Jin Dao: "Fourth, it's too cold up here, and the humidity is extremely high, it's not a way to go on like this, stay for a long time, even if we have a fighting spirit to protect the body, it's not good for the body." ”
I smiled slightly and said, "I've thought about this a long time ago, let's find a bigger rock, dig it, and make a temporary cave." As I spoke, I looked at Panzong, who was looking into the distance, and he naturally heard our conversation, glanced at me, frowned, and said, "Why me again." ”
I smiled and said, "Didn't the second sister say that those who can work harder." "Actually, Jin Yin and I both have the ability to dig stone caves, but we definitely don't do as well as Panzong.
It is much easier to dig a stone cave than to drill a tunnel, after a while, a huge rock was opened out of a big hole by Panzong, in order to avoid the wind, he also deliberately turned two corners in the rock, and made the exit relatively small, so that we can barely pass, so that we can not be afraid of the mountain wind.
Drilling into the dry stone room, I took out three sets of bedding from the mustard seed bag and spread them on the ground, since I had the mustard seed bag this treasure, I put some daily necessities in it, anyway, these things don't cost me much energy, it is still very convenient to carry it in case of an outside.
On the evening of the third day of our arrival, a sudden change occurred, and the gold and silver, who were looking outside, hurried into the stone chamber and shouted, "Get up quickly, the multicolored glow has appeared." Pan Zong, who was sleeping in a daze, woke up as soon as he heard this, and quickly ran out of the stone room to take a look, and sure enough, the clouds were gradually forming, and the colorful glow continued to emerge from the original peak, floating towards the sky one by one.
"Let's prepare. "Saying that, Panzong and I, Jin Yin and I all changed into black night clothes, I put Mo Ming on my back, lay on the cliff, and watched the movement in the camp of the Dragon God Empire in the distance, faster than I expected, in less than half an hour, a large number of light points appeared outside the mountain, rushing towards the defense line of the Dragon God Empire, I know, those light points are all kinds of people in the small city. I shouted: "They're coming, let's not worry, wait for the chaos down there to be a mess before acting, strong wind, strong wind, I see how you clean up this mess." Big brother, second brother, second sister, you must not transform unless you have to, here, our orc race is not accepted. ”
Yin sighed, pointed to the bottom of the mountain and said, "Fourth, you see, those humans seem to have stopped. ”
I looked in the direction she pointed, and sure enough, although a large number of points of light were still pouring towards the camp of the Dragon God Empire, they only gathered outside the camp, and there was no momentum to rush inward. I frowned and said, "This is not good, if it continues to develop like this, maybe the troops of the Dragon God Empire can drive out the crowd without bloodshed." ”
After another half an hour, a large number of mercenaries, civilians, magicians, and some unidentified people who had come to fish in troubled waters had gathered in front of the Dragon God Empire camp under the mountain. It's too far down the mountain for us to know what's going on below, but I know very well that the two sides have been facing each other, and the people of the Dragon God Empire haven't made a move, and the 'rabble' hasn't done anything, so they don't care about it? Mother, I'm sorry, although I promised you not to lead troops to attack the Dragon God Empire, but I didn't promise not to indirectly harm humans, in order to achieve my own goals, only ...... , I resolutely made a decision, if I lose this opportunity, maybe there is no possibility of a comeback, these 'rabble' can only be used once, you must know that one blow, then decline, three and exhaustion, this first time their greed is the most sufficient.
I turned around abruptly and shouted, "Big brother, you vomit some erysipelas." ”
Pan Zongleng paused for a moment and said, "What are you doing? You don't want to poison all the people below. ”
I smiled coldly, showing a cruel side, and said: "Don't worry, of course I won't poison all the people, all of them will die, who will disrupt the formation of the strong wind for us, but I will poison half of it, I don't believe it, those guys still don't do it." Darkness condenses the soul, the fallen can be free, awaken, the endless magic that sleeps in my blood. "A large number of dark elements in the air continued to rush towards me, and the violent air currents pushed Panzong and Gold and Silver back a few steps, my hair and eyes suddenly turned black, and two pairs of wide, black iron wings tore through the clothes behind me and suddenly opened behind me. After the transformation, my temperament suddenly changed greatly, with a wicked smile on my face, I stretched out my white hand, and said to Panzong: "Big brother, come on." Not a lot. ”
Panzong actually gave birth to a cowardice under my momentum, and felt that what I said seemed to be an order that could not be disobeyed, and subconsciously opened his mouth and spewed out a puff of purple smoke, while the smoke was sprayed out, my white and slender fingers shook slightly, and a black energy ball appeared in his palm, and the purple poisonous gas was sucked in like a thousand streams returning to the sect, when the poisonous gas was exhausted, I grabbed the energy ball, and a cold light flashed in my eyes, "Big brother, how many people can be poisoned by these poisonous gases?"
Pan Zong said: "If it is put in food or drinking water, I am afraid it can poison everyone below, and if it is emitted in the air, it should also poison one-tenth of it." ”
I was stunned for a moment and said, "It's so poisonous, there are more than 100,000 people down there." ”
Panzong smiled proudly and said: "Don't underestimate my erysipelas, since I have cultivated to the Jedi realm, the inner pill in my body has been formed, and the poisonous gas produced is much more powerful than before, due to the great increase in the poisonous surname, as long as I don't meet people with higher skills than me, a single bite of poisonous gas can wipe out a large number of troops." Of course, it will definitely be ineffective when encountering that fierce wind, and when it reaches the level of the god of war, it will definitely be invulnerable. Are you really going to poison the people below?"
I nodded and said, "To do big things, you have to be informal, if you don't do this, they will do it like this until the end of the colorful glow, then everything will be over." Wait for me here, and I'll come when I go. As I spoke, I clutched the black energy ball, spread my wings lightly, and floated up.
Pan Zong admonished, "Be careful of those patrolling dragon knights. ”
"I know you're ready to go. Leaving this sentence behind, I swooped down against the mountain. The dragon knights don't have to worry now, their focus must be on defending that cave and paying attention to the crowd outside, how could they come to the main peak of this white smoke mountain. I quickly passed through the clouds, and soon flew to the bottom of the mountain, I cautiously fell to the back of the Dragon God Empire's camp, lifted the entrance to the tunnel, jumped in, and when I reached the other end, I clearly heard the chaotic sound above, I secretly shouted that there were so many people above, how could I get out. Shaking my head, I returned to the end of the Smoky Mountain, and it seemed that I had only flown over. I pulled my body up, flapped my wings constantly, and flew almost to the same height as the main peak of the White Smoky Mountain, before I moved forward cautiously, although there were traces of the dragon knights below, they did not find my black cloud, so that I successfully passed above the camp of the Dragon God Empire, I flew over the gathered crowd and changed back to its original form in a dark corner, and took a hat and squeezed into the flow of hundreds of thousands of people. As soon as I entered the flow of people, I heard a deep sound from the direction of the Dragon God Camp.
"No matter where you come from, please retreat immediately, you are all the people of the Dragon God Empire, this place is owned by the official family, gather people to make trouble, do you want to rebel?" I was shocked, the energy contained in this voice is really not small, and the person who speaks should be a master. With my strong strength, I quickly advanced in the crowded crowd, squeezed to the front row, and those who could stand in the front row were all human beings with a certain strength, and a hundred meters in front of me, gathered a large number of heavy armored infantry of the Dragon God Empire, they were armed with more than two meters long guns, lined up like an iron bucket, the tip of the gun pointed outward, revealing a murderous aura, no wonder these people didn't rush in, it turned out that the Dragon God Empire actually put on such a strong formation.
A yin and yang strange voice came from our crowd, "The treasures produced in the White Smoky Mountain are inhabited by virtuous people, why should you let your official family occupy them, it has been so long and you haven't gotten it, it's better for us to try, brothers, you say, isn't it." "I secretly praise in my heart, this guy who speaks is really a sensational master, this is the best, and it saves me from doing it.
"Well, we're going to get a piece of the pie too. ”
"Let's get over. ”
"You troops, get out of the way, otherwise, you're welcome. ”
Although these people do not belong to the same system, due to the relationship between the colorful glow, they all have a common purpose, and being stopped in this place, the soldiers of the Dragon God Empire suddenly became their common enemies, and the feeling of hatred and hatred made them naturally cohesive. Most of the crowd moved forward a few dozen meters further.
Now that the deep voice came out again, he shouted violently: "Bold, I see which of you dares to violate the realm, take another step forward, and kill him." The huge noise made the crowd stop again, after all, the other party was the regular army of the Dragon God Empire, not only had a strong combat ability, but also had the upper hand in the psychological aspect. I looked at the sky and knew that I couldn't delay, so I quietly took out the black energy ball while the people around me were not paying attention, and the transport force intercepted a very small part of the energy ball, and condensed some fire elements into it, because the fire element will be the most conspicuous in the night sky, and the outermost is still wrapped in dark magic. The attention of the people around is on the side of the Dragon God Empire, or the colorful clouds in the sky, although I am tall, but who will notice me, with a shake of his hand, the black energy ball quietly rose into the sky.
;
