Chapter 51: The Battle of the Acropolis
A wild forest that stretches endlessly, three thousand miles deep, oversees the camp. Please use this site to access.
The guard camp, not only is it not wild and desolate, but it is lively and prosperous. This place is like a city, a city that is several times larger than Hongdu City.
Her area is about 10,000 miles in size. The entire city was surrounded by a thick wall. The walls were all made of unknown black boulders. It is up to five meters thick and tens of zhang high. From the ground, it looks like a giant water tank.
The city has many buildings. Many of the houses are also made of black stone, which is unusually sturdy.
Compared to the outside world, this is a troubled time.
The existence of the guards, of course, does not need to be said. In addition to this group of elites selected from the major cities in the south of the continent and selected through the test of life and death, there are many other existences in the Guardian Battalion.
comptoirs, which is essential.
In the huge overseer camp of the big city, there are two trading houses.
One of them: Longmen Commercial Bank. Second: Cold Moon Commercial Bank. The two commercial houses are fighting against each other and control the food, clothing, housing and transportation here.
In addition to the trading house, there is also a medicine store. Compared with the former, it has more value and more benefits. After all, it is in the wilderness, killing constantly, and as a warrior, it is inevitable that you will be injured. Therefore, its business is extremely hot.
There are seven medicine shops in the Acropolis, namely "Jin", "Yuan", "Xin", "Ao", "Li", "Chong", and "Lan".
With the medicine store, the weapon store is naturally indispensable. Similarly, there are several businesses that build weapons. It is famous for a "red iron" weapons shop.
Merchants, medicines, and weapons, in addition to these, there are also many restaurants and scattered shops in the city, and there are even brothels. It's not too much to say that it's mixed.
The population of the Acropolis was about 10,000, and its guards accounted for 200,000, and the rest were all major merchants and some idle people.
However, all the people here, whether they are strong or weak in cultivation, or how rich or small, must obey the orders of one person.
The Overseer, as the Commander of the Overseer, is the Emperor here. Everyone can be an Overseer. The prerequisite is that you have enough strength to defeat the previous Overseer and take the crown off his head.
200,000 guards, divided into 20 guards, 2 brigades, 20,000 teams, and 40,000 squads.
Each of these 40,000 squads is responsible for the sentry posts around the city. Those sentry posts were one per meter, almost densely packed, sealing off all the routes from the wild forest to the outside.
This is the last line of defense of the mainland, and its strength is far beyond the imagination of the world.
The three-year period had passed, and the Guard Battalion had begun to welcome people. When the first boy stumbled to the gate behind the guard camp, fresh blood was immediately injected.
The number of embarrassed figures gradually increased, and in a month's time, a team of about three teenagers entered several restaurants in the Acropolis to recuperate.
Two months later, seven people arrived one after another. Three months later, about four men also arrived at the Acropolis. At this point, only 1,040 people remained in the team of more than 7,000 people.
The danger of the wilderness opened a huge embrace to these pampered teenagers, taking more than a thousand lives between them.
Cangxuan Peak was stationed here two months later. At that time, there were only two people around him, one was Cang Qianlin and the other was Lu Qing. Cousin Cang Qianjun has been buried in the fierce tide of demon beasts. And Lu Qing also had no choice but to hide his seriously injured brother in a safe place, prepare enough food and water for him, and then set out on the road by himself.
When Cang Xuanfeng entered the city, he knew that this was the beginning of the grind.
After nearly a month, the injuries on the teenagers' bodies have almost healed. At this time, the selection of the overseers officially began.
1,040 people, all of whom have to go through layers of competition. The purpose of the competition is to select the strong men of these thousand and four people to serve as their squad leader, captain, and captain.
One squad, twenty-five people. One team, one person. One brigade, a thousand people. Of these more than 1,400 people, there will be at least dozens of titles.
The arena of the competition was set up on a thousand-meter-high platform in the square in the heart of the Acropolis. Once every three years, it has witnessed the birth of countless strong people. Most of its victors are now famous, and many of them are in high positions in the guard camp. There are also a small number of demon beasts who unfortunately died in battle.
On the edge of the ring, more than a thousand people stood neatly. To stand out from more than 7,000 people, they are not simple. At least, they didn't die on the way.
In addition to the more than 1,000 people, the huge square is surrounded by crowds. Thousands of people scattered into more than a dozen camps.
Among these people, there are a group of people and horses dressed in black villages. The eyes are cold, the breath is dark, and the aura is shocking. These are the guards. In the midst of them, a breezy young man was drinking by himself. His aura was very indifferent, like an ethereal cloud, which was elusive. For this alone, he is definitely stronger than Jin Xiong.
Qin Mo. Young people have an unknown name. This name has not been heard of by many people in the field. However, within the Overseer, the name is almost equal to that of the Overseer. His identity is the Deputy Overseer. Overseer of the Guard, a position that has just been set up.
In addition to these guards, there were also people from various merchants. Many of them naturally noticed Qin Mo. It's just that the ultimate goal of every family is a teenager on the stage. As for the former, although they were puzzled, they did not immediately inquire about it.
In their hearts, the big purpose is to win over those geniuses who have not yet spread their wings. Snow sends carbon and has always been a good means of making friends.
Cang Xuanfeng stood on the edge of the ring, his eyes revealing a firmness. His eyes swept to the young men around him from time to time, hoping to find the shadow of Cangxuanting. It's just that he was disappointed that he never saw the latter.
The heart gradually cooled down. At the beginning, Cang Xuanting blocked more than a dozen fierce beasts alone and helped himself and others escape. He was only a first-grade spirit master's cultivation, but he bought them a lot of time. Cang Xuanfeng was worried, what happened to him?
"Silence!" a strong voice sounded, two figures flashed through the air, and in the blink of an eye, they appeared in the ring.
The following thousand years were suddenly silenced. In their eyes, they only saw two shadows flashing, and they couldn't see how the two came to the high platform.
Jin Xiong and Yun Chuqi glanced at the crowd sharply, and the former said, "Today is the day of selection for the people of the Guardian Battalion. No matter who it is, there is no private fight. Once present, kill immediately. This is an order from the Overseers, and if anyone disobeys, they should go to the city lord to reason. ”
In the latter sentence, Jin Xiong said in an indifferent tone. He knew very well that although he was at the level of a monarch, he was definitely not the strength of these thousands. In the crowd, there are at least double-digit powerhouses who are stronger than him. However, although those people were stronger than themselves, they would never dare to disobey the Overseers. Here, the Overseers are godlike beings.
"One thousand forty-three. Everybody came here to get their numbered tickets. Yun Chuqi said, and with a wave of his hand, a large number of number plates appeared in the heart of the high platform.
More than 1,000 people came to the stage to receive their own numbers. After Cang Xuanfeng got the number, he glanced at the palm-sized piece of wood, and the number was seventy-three. Lu Qing on the side is twenty-fifty-one.
"Those who have cultivated to reach the first grade of the Lingyuan Master, go out of the ranks!" Seeing that everyone had chosen the number plate, Jin Xiong said loudly. Then he flashed and came to the edge of the ring.
Yipin Lingyuan Master, maybe the outside world, these teenagers are proud enough. But here, there are simply everywhere in the realm of first-class products, and there are as many as cows.
The crowd surged, and in a few moments, more than 1,400 people walked out of thirty or fifty-two. Of these thirty or fifty-two people, Lu Qing is impressively listed. In just over a month, he had broken through from an eighth-rank spiritual qi master to a first-grade spiritual yuan master. Savage, entering the realm is countless faster than he has been in the past ten years.
Cangxuan Peak is not among them. Because his realm at the moment has broken through to the second-grade spirit master.
"Now I will order people, and everything that is ordered will be brought to me on stage. Yun Chuqi said again.
His eyes swept over everyone sharply, stretched out his right hand and pointed at the two of them, and said, "You, you, come to the stage." ”
The two teenagers stepped out of the crowd, glanced at him apprehensively, and then stepped onto the high platform.
"The fight begins. The one who falls first in the ring loses. Those who lose their fighting power lose. The two of you remember that you must not harm each other's lives, nor should you abolish each other's dantian. If you break the rules, you will be killed immediately. Yun Chuqi said indifferently.
And that's where it begins?
All the teenagers in the audience were surprised. Is this really too simple? So what's the point of getting this number ticket?
In the ring, the two teenagers were surprised. But there are no objections. They looked at each other, their eyes beginning to build up their fighting intent.
"Whew!" Suddenly, one of its young Lingyuan surged out, condensing the Lingyuan battle knife in his hand, and killed the opponent with a fierce voice.
"Hah!" The other person did not show weakness, and the white sword in his hand was also condensed, and his figure met it. The two immediately fought together.
These two people have the same realm, and the strength of the same spirit yuan is almost the same. The competition between the two was extremely fierce, showing a stalemate. For a moment, there is no way to tell the winner from the loser.
Jin Xiong and Yun Chuqi looked at the competition indifferently, and their hearts were not in the slightest hurry. They have seen this kind of stalemate countless times. If you were a smart person, you wouldn't do that at all. Time is of the essence, and the prerequisite to be considered is how to make the opponent lose combat power with fast and effective attacks. Obviously, neither of them understood this truth.
"Stop!" After a few strokes, Jin Xiong's deep voice interrupted the attack of the two.
The two teenagers stopped and turned to look at him in surprise.
A trace of indifference appeared on Jin Xiong's face, and he said, "You two lose a battle at the same time and step down." ”
"Lost?" said one of the teenagers, unconvinced: "Why? I have already taken the lead, and it is only a matter of time before I win him." In this way, it will be judged that I will lose, and I will not accept it!"
"Not convinced?" Jin Xiong glanced at him coldly and said, "If there are other opponents around you, do you think you can still stand here now? It's how to use fast speed and ruthless attacks to make the opponent rout. We are facing a flood of monsters, and no one will help you in the moment of life and death. ”
"Step down!" After saying these words, Jin Xiong's patience was also exhausted. He waved his hand directly, and the huge Lingyuan power instantly swept towards the two of them, and suddenly the two teenagers were slapped away by the powerful Lingyuan.
"You, you, go on stage!" Yun Chuqi didn't bother to look at the two of them, and called out the two more from under the ring. tongzhi;
