Chapter 4 Sending troops to the city of blood
"In the time you were asleep, the Dark Demon City had declared war on the Blood Worship City. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThey can no longer tolerate our encroachment on their borders, our army has been assembled in Kunxi City, and now they should be waiting for an opportunity to attack Kunyue City. The city lord of Kunyue is a cunning Dharma King, and he has always pursued a wall-riding policy, and whoever marches will surrender to whom, but this is the only place for us to attack the Black Demon City, you go to Kunxi City first, and go to see the Dharma Saint Ziyan. ”
The day after meeting Bai Luo, the moon crown gave herself a task, Su Mu put on a black robe decorated with maple leaf seals, and rode the black sand eagle to Kunxi City.
The Black Sand Eagle is a variant of the common Sand Hawk, which is large in size and has a certain intelligence, and is often captured and domesticated by humans, becoming the fastest means of transportation in the western part of the Hack Kingdom. Su Mu rode the Black Sand Eagle, set off early in the morning, and in the evening he crossed half of the Blood Worship City and arrived at the border from the city.
Along the way, the barren desert gradually came to life, and when we reached the border, there was a little greenery as far as the eye could see. Spring is coming, I have lived in the Gobi Desert long enough, I have forgotten the four seasons, think about the distance from the son of Lingfeng City to the hostage of the Black Demon City, to the mercenary, and finally to now, it has been six years. Six years is not a long time, but it is enough to change the world beyond recognition.
When they arrived at Mokun West City, the vanguard army had already captured Kunyue City, and Su Mu saw the Fa Sheng Ziyan in the city palace of Kunxi City.
Ziyan is a man in his forties, friendly but dignified. After seeing Su Mu, he stood up and shook hands with Su Mu.
"I'm the vice president of the Blood Worship Magic Association, Fa Sheng Ziyan, hello. ”
"Hello, I'm Su Mu, the night envoy, the first order of the law soul. ”
"The Night Priest informed me before you came, and she told me that you would assist me in attacking the Dark Magic City, but it would not affect my decision-making. ”
"Yes, you can rest assured that you are still the supreme commander of the army. ”
"That's fine, you can't have two generals in an army, I hope you understand. ”
Zi Yan and Su Mu sat down at the mahogany table, and the waiter opened a bottle of dry red for the two of them.
"Kunyue City is the largest city on the border between Worship Blood and the Black Devils, and it has been captured in the evening, and the King of the Defending City has driven away the Black Devil army and surrendered to our army. I intend to have all my troops stationed in Kunyue City as a base for our attack on the Dark Devils. ”
Su Mu nodded and did not speak.
"I'd like to hear from you, you know more about the Dark Magic than I do. Ziyan looked at Su Mu.
"What's your strategy?" asked Su Mu.
"The initial strategy is to send troops from Kunyue City, open up the western border of the Black Devils, and take the capital directly. Zi Yan placed a map in front of Su Mu, and the map covered all the areas of the Black Demon City.
"There are five Dharma Saints in the Dark Demon City, one in the southeast, one in the north, one in the capital, one in the mercenary group, only the western guard is the ninth-order Dharma Soul White Dove, and now the Black Devil has declared war on blood worship, what do you think the first thing the Black Magic God should do?"
Zi Yan thought for a while, and did not reply, but asked rhetorically: "What do you think he will do?"
"He will send the Fasheng of the city capital to the west to assist in the defense. ”
"What's next?"
Su Mu didn't answer immediately, but asked, "The son of the white pigeon is in your hands?"
"Yes. ”
"If you take the son of the White Dove as the vanguard every time you attack the city, the Dark Army will be very passive. ”
"There's no doubt about that. ”
"If we continue to be passive, the army of the white dove will be taken over by the newly arrived Fa Sheng. ”
Zi Yan suddenly raised her eyes and looked at Su Mu.
"The law saint who took over the army is the younger brother of the god of black magic, named Sack, three years ago, Sack's son molested the youngest daughter of the white pigeon in the tavern, that is, the younger sister of the white jade, and was almost killed by the white jade, and the two families have been fighting each other ever since. Now that the white jade is in your hands, what do you think the white dove will do if Sack kills the white jade?"
"I guess he won't mutiny. Ziyan smiled.
"There is no doubt that he will not defect, but Sack will also lose control of the army. All the armies in the western part of the Black Devil City are descendants of the White Dove. ”
"Civil strife?"
That's pretty much what it means. ”
Ziyan stood up with a smile, looked at Su Mu, and said, "It's interesting!, but you can even know that Bai Yu's sister is being molested?"
"Three years ago, Sack's son and I lived in the same palace. ”
Zi Yan laughed and shook his head again and again, and after a while, he said: "I will transfer all the garrisons of Kunxi City to Kunyue City now, rest tomorrow, and officially send troops the day after tomorrow!"
"What are you going to do with Venerable Kunyue?" Su Mu asked suddenly.
"Haven't thought about it yet, what do you think?"
"Kill him, if he surrenders to the Dark Devil again, we will be in danger. ”
"Killing the city lord just after surrendering will it cause a rebellion?"
"If you destroy all the nobles in the city, you will not be afraid of rebellion. ”
Ziyan frowned and looked at Su Mu, Su Mu was expressionless, gently shook the red wine glass in front of him, and didn't move for a while.
After nightfall, the city palace of Kunyue City suddenly caught fire, and a group of mages formed a group of mages outside the city palace, and they formed a thick barrier to seal the city palace. A terrible shout was heard from inside the palace, and the hurricane field enveloped the entire city palace, and those who were exposed were torn open by the wind, and then the wind blade pierced through the heart. Su Mu stood on the top of the city palace, his black robe hunting in the night wind, and behind him was the head of Haoyue.
Under the terrifying power of the hurricane realm, the slaughter did not last long, Su Mu collected the scattered demon hearts and swallowed them one by one. When Su Mu walked out of the courtyard gate, nearly a hundred mages looked at him, his long hair was not messy in the slightest, there was no blood stains on his robes, only his lips showed a touch of scarlet in the firelight. From that moment on, Su Mu received a new title: Night Devil.
After killing the nobles of Kunyue City, the army of Baixue City rested for a day, and the next day, the vanguard army set off and went straight to the border city of the Black Demon "Four Water City". Leading the vanguard army was the blood-worshipping fifth-order Dharma Soul Rama, who tied the white jade high to the flagpole of the Chinese army and led the mage to storm the barrier of the Four Waters City.
Sure enough, after supporting the white jade, the defenders of Sishui City did not carry out a large-scale spell attack on the blood-worshipping army, and Rama took the opportunity to break through the Sishui barrier and quickly captured the city. The Dharma King, who fled in the chaos, was stopped by Su Mu, who did not let him go, and the wind blade easily passed through his heart, cut open his abdomen, and took out the demon heart.
After killing the Dharma King of Sishui City, Su Mu spread his wind wings and flew directly to Sidong City, the nest of the white pigeon. The walls of Sidong City are pitch black and heavy, towering into the sky, like a towering mountain peak blocking the road to the city capital. At this moment, the city has just entered a state of combat readiness, and the faint magic enchantment is shining.
Perhaps because the White Dove wanted to confront the Blood Worshippers outside the city, the barrier was not fully opened. Su Mu stretched out his wind wings and flew towards the city gate against the ground. The sentry spotted Su Mu very early and was about to blow the horn, but his throat was cut by the wind blade and he fell on his back.
Su Mu came to the city gate like a ghost, his black robe was very dazzling, but he raised his hand and cut the throats of ten mages at the same time, and the witnesses did not make any sound, and all of them fell to the ground.
Sidong City is a bustling commercial city, with merchants from all over the country rushing here every day, and at the same time, this is also the only place where Blood Worship City and Dark Demon City maintain communication. The people of Bloodcity love the sturdy yellowstone and precious trinkets produced by the Black Devils, while the Dark Devils love the weapons and leather clothes made by the Bloodmen from the corpses of Warcraft.
After Su Mu entered the Sidong City, the city that was about to enter the Great War was not as noisy as before, and there were few pedestrians on the streets. But the taverns were still full of people, and many merchants could put their lives and deaths aside for the sake of gold. But generally speaking, once the magic barrier outside the city is breached, the defending army will surrender or flee, which will not have much impact on the buildings and residents in the city, they just change the city lord, change the policy, adapt to it, and life still has to go on.
The buildings in Sidong City are very tall, the pointed roofs are solemn under the sky, the building types are varied, and the decoration is also very elegant, which is a typical black magic architectural style. Su Mu remembered that when he lived in the Dark Magic City Palace, he liked to run to the top of the high building and open the windows like the Crystal Palace one by one, and he was like flying in the air, and the opposite side of the sky was the sunset on an equal footing with him.
At this time, the attendant would always hug him down in a panic, and kept muttering: "My son, you are living in a foreign country now, you can't do whatever you want!"
Whenever he said this, the squire's eyes always showed sadness. He is a dark devil, but for some reason he is willing to become the attendant of the Spirit Wind Child, and he does his best.
Su Mu was reminded of the buildings of Sidong City, and he walked silently through the spacious and deserted streets to find the Sidong Palace. This is the tallest building in the Four East Cities, hexagonal, and the top is still pointed, like a sharpened pencil.
When Su Mu walked to the door of the main hall, he was stopped by two magicians, who looked at Su Mu and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
Su Mu smiled and said, "I'm looking for a white pigeon." ”
"Looking for the Marquis?"
"Tell him that the Son of the Wind has come to visit. ”
"Nothing is seen without an appointment, and on the eve of the war, the marquis has a lot of affairs. ”
Su Mu smiled and took a step back, and suddenly, Gangfeng rushed up the stairs along the main hall, rolled through the corridors, opened the closed doors one after another, and then continued to rush towards the upper floors.
"What's going on?" the gatekeeper was pushed away by the sudden wind, puzzled.
"I don't need you, I found it. Gangfeng blocked the two magicians, and Su Mu stepped into the main hall with his feet and walked between the two.
The people in the main hall all stopped what they were doing and looked at Su Mu in surprise, and suddenly, the alarm sounded, and the people around them recited the magic one after another, and the magic in their hands surged. Su Mu frowned, the wind blade swept by, and everyone in the hall fell to the ground in an instant, and the corpses separated.
With the piercing scream of the alarm, red light began to flicker in the main hall, and Su Mu propped up his wind wings and quickly rushed to the top floor. When he arrived at the white dove's room, he was already surrounded by a large group of His Holiness behind him.
"Are you?!" After seeing Su Mu, Bai Ge was stunned for a moment, he looked at the child in front of him carefully, as if he wanted to dig out this familiar face from his memory.
"Children of the Wind. Su Mu looked at the white pigeon, this familiar face had aged a lot after only half a year, and his hair had turned gray. Su Mu can still clearly think of half a year ago, he patted himself on the shoulder and told himself, "Complete the last task, and you will be free." ”
The white dove's expression gradually became cold, and he looked at the hundreds of mages outside the house, and waved his hand slightly. The people outside the house looked at each other, and after a while, one of them bowed his head and saluted, then closed the door and led the people to retreat.
Su Mu stepped forward and sat down opposite the white pigeon.
"You're not here to negotiate, are you? You don't need to go through such a lot of trouble to negotiate, stand outside the city and call me, I'll show up. The white pigeon looked at Su Mu and smiled bitterly.
"No, I'm just here to get my commission, five thousand gold coins. ”
The white pigeon was stunned, then took out a piece of paper, filled it with five thousand gold coins, and then signed his name.
Su Mu took the note, then took out the match and lit the note.
"Okay, I'm just going to get my stuff back. ”
The white pigeon looked at Su Mu, his eyes turned cold, and he whispered: "It seems that you betrayed the black devil, surrendered and worshiped blood, and immediately soared, and the five thousand gold coins were used to test matches?"
"Betrayal, kill the lion-headed snake, I will have a commission of five thousand gold coins, and restore freedom, this is your promise. Which legion I join after freedom has nothing to do with you Dark Devil, right?"
"I really don't know who gave you the courage to come here, how, are you ready to die?"
"The white jade is in my hands, you dare to kill me?"
"Do you think I'm going to take care of the bigger picture for my son?"
"Yes, definitely. White dove, I know your weaknesses very well. ”
The white pigeon was furious, he stood up, stared at Su Mu's eyes were bloodshot, and pointed at Su Mu with trembling fingers: "Bai Feng, let me ask you, how does Bai Yu treat you? He treats you as his own brother, but you hang him on the banner of the Blood Worship Army, as a shield for the siege of the city?"
"Uncle, what I owe you has been paid off by the time I step into the God-given gladiatorial arena. Why do you think I'm willing to die for someone?"
"Your task was given by the Fa God, and the person responsible for carrying it out is me! You're sorry Bai Yu!"
Su Mu sat at the table, quietly looked at the hysterical white dove, took a deep breath, and outside the window, there was a familiar black devil-style pointed roof.
