Chapter 5 Alien Attack
The two soldiers guarding the gate outside the gate of Qingyun City stood listlessly, and both of them were in a terrible mood. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Hey, Mori, did you say that we had offended the gods? The Heroes Conference, such a once-in-a-century ceremony, is actually our turn to stand sentry. I don't think I'm as good as an ordinary person, at least they can look at it from the outside. Soldier Dele grumbled as he wiped the iron sword in his hand.
"I don't believe in any gods," Morry shrugged, "but hearing you say that, I really want to go to the Cloud Palace to see the martial arts." ”
Before Maury's words could dissipate, Dele suddenly stopped rubbing his sword in his hand and looked at him in a daze.
"What......? You don't really want to see it, do you?" asked Maury, looking at a thoughtful Dele.
"Why don't you go? Such a grand scene, delicious food and wine, dancing girls singing and dancing, if I miss this time, I don't know how many times I will be reincarnated next time to meet it again. Dele said seductively.
Maury's round eyes stared blankly ahead, as if he had been in the ocean of celebration. After coming back to his senses, he hurriedly shook his head and shook off those illusions, and said, "But...... But we're standing guard, if ......"
Now that the Zhongzhou War has just ended, the world is peaceful, and what sentries are needed to defend the city, everyone has gone to see the competition, and no one has entered or left the city. Besides, we're just going to take a look," Dele interrupted Maury's hesitation and continued to tempt, "and we'll be back with a look." ”
Mori heard that Dele's words made sense, and a smile slowly appeared on his originally hesitant face, and he muttered: "Yes, we only take a look, and we will come back after a look." ”
Figured out, Maury turned around and was about to enter the city, but before he could take half a step, his arm was grabbed by Delo.
"Wait. Dele said softly.
Maury looked back at Dele suspiciously, only to find that Dele had been glancing at him, and Maury noticed that several groups of people had suddenly appeared not far from the city gate.
"It's a disappointment, wait for them to go in and we'll go. Dele said indignantly.
Maury nodded knowingly.
As the team got closer, Dele's expression was a little wrong, and Maury's face was clouded with confusion.
"It's not cold either, why are these people even wearing cloaks?" Murray wondered Delew.
After Morry finished speaking, he realized that his description was very similar to that of a member of an organization wandering in the Dragon Atlas world, and he whispered, "Could it be ...... Is it the 'Cloak Man'?"
"Cloaked man?" said Delek, who heard the three words Maury inadvertently, and a chill came over his back, his right hand clenching the freshly polished iron sword, and his left hand reaching for the communication waist order on his waist (note 1).
Cloak Man, that's the code name of the demonic organization that everyone in the Dragon Atlas World knows. They are known as the Hellish Seekers, rebels from all parts of the Dragon Atlas world, and all of them are cold-blooded and ruthless, bringing blood everywhere they go. The scary thing is that very few people have seen their real faces, as they are covered in a cloak all over their bodies. It is said that the elves in the ethereal cold continent once killed an "elven cloakman" by some means, and when they took off the cloak, they found that this elf had dull eyes on his entire face, but the skin that should have been crystal clear was like burnt leather, which was extremely terrifying. I don't know what kind of ordeal he suffered, and ......
Before Deloer could think about it, the cloaked men had already arrived at the city gates. Dele glanced uneasily at the leader, only to realize that he was not as horrible as he had imagined. Although the cloak covers the part above the forehead, the eyes, nose and mouth are still clearly visible, and it should not be a cloaked person, but it still feels a little strange.
"Who is it?" asked Delle, as he touched his hand on his waist and relaxed.
The leader raised his head slightly, his face expressionless.
"We are the Terrans from the Southern Silver Trace Castle, and we heard that the Terran Grand Ceremony Heroes Conference was held here, so we came to participate in the conference. The leader said softly.
"Silverstreak, how come I haven't heard of this place, Maury, do you know this place?" asked Dele.
Mo Li thought for a moment, "The Source of Vitality Continent, there is Qingyun City in the north, the Pastoral Capital in the east, the Savage Land in the west, and the ...... Nan: I really don't know. ”
"Our Silver Stain Fort is sparsely populated, and it's normal that the two warriors haven't heard of it. You city lords should know about our Silver Trace Castle, but the conference is in full swing, so it would be a bit inappropriate to inform the city lord at this time, right? Besides, we are just here to celebrate, so we don't have to work so hard, right?" said the leader with a blank face.
"yes, yes, I think I'll let them in. Maury quietly glanced at something. How could Dele not know his intentions, if he informed the city lord at this time, their plan would be ruined, not to mention that these people seemed to be ...... It doesn't seem to be malicious.
"Brothers, don't mind, our two brothers are just doing routine checks, since they are all friends of our own clan, then please come in. After a moment's thought, Dele made up his mind.
After the leader straightened his cloak slightly, he led the people behind him to continue walking.
The team moved slowly, and as the leader passed by Dele's, Dele suddenly had an indescribable feeling. It was the same feeling he felt when he was a child when his illness took away his grandmother, terrifying and helpless.
"Wait. Dele said suddenly.
The leader didn't seem to expect Dele to stop him again, and his body paused, but he still stopped walking. He turned his head slowly, his originally expressionless face replaced by a hideous one, and his leather-like burnt face barely pulled out a playful smile, and said softly, "I didn't lie to you, I was indeed from Silvermark Castle, oh, it used to be." ”
The sudden appearance of a black dragon in the sky above the conference venue attracted everyone's attention. After circling in the air for a few laps, the dragon suddenly swooped down, targeting the dwarven lieutenant in the ring.
The dwarf adjutant was also attracted by the dragon in the sky at this time, and suddenly found that the dragon was rushing towards him, and hurriedly let go of Mu Xiang and dodged backwards. But the speed of the dragon was too fast, and the adjutant stumbled and fell under the ring, but he also avoided the dragon's collision because of misfortune. The dragon missed the blow and did not continue the attack, and let out a few roars before flying straight back to the high platform behind Qingyu. This dragon is Qingyu's "Black Knight".
Seeing that the dwarven lieutenant was so embarrassed, the tribal camp that was originally noisy and watching the show was silent at this time, while the warriors of Qingyun City and Muzhidu laughed one after another. Mu Xiang, who regained his freedom, hurriedly tidied up his spring-like upper body, and bowed slightly to thank Qingyu on the stage, and Qingyu also responded with a smile.
Everything that has just happened has made many people not come to their senses, and when they do, the first person to bear the brunt is the hot-tempered dwarven leader O'Hari.
Seeing that his lieutenant was being treated like this, O'Hari stood up angrily and called out the name of Qingfeng: "Qingfeng, my subordinates are in the middle of a competition with the warriors of the pastoral capital, and your son suddenly intervenes, what does this mean?"
"Chief O'Hari, I don't quite understand what you mean. Your subordinates have indeed just competed with the warriors of the capital of the pasture, but if there is no problem with your eyes, when Yu'er makes a move, your subordinates have obviously defeated the warriors of the capital of the city, and the rules of the contest are not the freedom to go on stage to challenge?"
"You ......" Oha's face flushed with strength, but he couldn't argue.
"City Lord, if I'm not mistaken, the rules of the competition are that one party admits defeat or is knocked out of the ring before the competition is over. It doesn't seem to meet any of the conditions in the ring just now, right?" Giant Tyke's rugged voice sounded at the right time.
"Like, do you think we dwarves are easy to bully?" O'Hari chimed in.
O'Hari's words immediately sparked a commotion in the tribal camp, and the sound of invective and broken wine glasses kept coming.
"I have long heard that the tribal human race and the human race of the orthodox blood are like icebergs and a sea of fire, and today I see that this is indeed the case. Vieu, who was in the crowd, said.
Unlike Viyu's schadenfreude, Kerry had sensed the tension in the venue and looked worriedly at his daughter sitting beside Qingyu.
"Every race has its own beliefs, but there are always some betrayers of faith, not just the Terrans, but also our Phantoms, right? Kerry said coldly.
The Phantom Clan has always believed in Lodi, but the Heron family's emblem is an ethereal wolf.
Viyu smiled, "The so-called betrayer of faith is just the definition of the loser by the victor, and if the loser succeeds, then it is difficult to say who is the betrayer of faith." ”
"What the head of the Viyu family said is so profound, how can there be so many ifs. Kerry said.
When the two were fighting, one of Viyu's entourages quietly came to Viyu's side and whispered a few words, and Viyu immediately smiled on his face and said to himself: "It's finally here, the time is just right." ”
Kerry saw Vieu's sly smile on his face, and his heart was uneasy, what the hell is this old fox doing?
Wei You looked at the Terran generals on the stage, and then looked at Kerry looking at him incomprehensibly, and said with a sneer: "Don't worry about the Kerry family master, a gift from the Terran is here." ”
Qingfeng looked at the commotion of the audience, his body suddenly stood up, and slapped the table in front of him with his left hand, and a thunderous sound reverberated through the venue. The originally noisy tribal camp suddenly quieted down, and Qingfeng looked around the audience with a stern gaze and an angry face. The surrounding guards were all alerted when they saw the city lord so angry, and their hands were already on the hilt of the sword, and everyone in the venue tensed their nerves.
Seeing that a conflict was about to break out, suddenly a shrill sound sounded in the distance, followed by a cloud of red smoke in the sky.
Seeing this, the university scholar Bodor who was sitting behind Qingfeng hurriedly stood up, leaned close to Qingfeng's side, and said softly: "City Lord, it's the alarm order of the city gate guards, and it's red, I'm afraid it's a little bad......
Qingfeng frowned, put his hands on the table in front of him, his fingers kept rubbing the table, his expression was serious, his eyes swept to the field, and his thoughts were flying. He knew that a lot was going to happen today, and he was well prepared for it, but there were some things that were beyond his thoughts.
"The warriors of Qingyun City obey the order, surround the tournament venue, the archers wait for the order, no one is allowed to leave, and those who violate it will be killed!" Qingfeng suddenly said in a heavy tone.
After giving the order, Qingfeng said something to the guards behind him, and the guards quietly left.
The hall became noisy as orders were given. The joyful atmosphere was replaced by screams and cries in an instant, and the warriors of Qingyun City poured into the stadium one after another, surrounding everyone around.
The tribesmen also held weapons in their hands, did not dare to act rashly, and waited for the leader's orders.
"Castle Lord, it's just a controversy over the rules of the competition, everyone has the right to express their own opinions, must things develop to such a point of tension?
Tyke the Giant suddenly found that the situation on the field was a little delicate. He originally thought that the reason why Qingfeng came out as the "Pastoral Capital" was because they had already established a good alliance, but listening to Makino's "impassioned words" just now, it seemed that the relationship between Qingyun City and the Pastoral Capital was not too harmonious. Could it be that those rumors are true? Tyke's stiff face showed a slight hint of joy, he had always regarded the capital of the Pasture as the Qingfeng camp, originally the power of Qingyun City was the strongest, if you added the capital of the herd, the tribe had almost no chance of winning. Now it's different, if the two sides really fight each other, there is no need to worry about the warriors of the Pastoral Capital, and the three tribes still have a great chance of winning against the warriors of Qingyun City together.
"It's still the city lord who understands the righteousness, Qingyun City's territory has expanded a lot over the years, but why is the city lord's mind getting smaller and smaller?" Tyke said in a rough voice.
Qingfeng didn't want to fight with them, and looked solemnly at the red that was gradually diffusing in the distance.
"Chiefs, I know what is in your heart. But listen to me, even the most fertile land is a wasteland if you don't have the life to cultivate it. Qingfeng said softly.
"What do you mean, Qingfeng? threaten us? You think we are scared? You are still sucking milk in your mother-in-law's arms while we are snatching meat from the beast's mouth!" the leader of the hunters could not help but stand up, and now that everyone had already made it clear, he did not need to be respectful.
"The leaders have misunderstood, if I want to attack you, why wait until today?" Qingfeng's fierce eyes inadvertently swept towards the crowd at the venue, "The red smoke above the city gate just now was all watched, it was not a magic flower put by a child, but a communication order for the defense of our Qingyun City." ”
"Communication? Are there still visitors? Okay, just come to see our Terran jokes. Makino sneered.
"The lord of the herd city is really powerful, and there are indeed visitors. But, "they don't just look at our jokes."
"What do you mean, what do you want to say, Lord Qingcheng? Makino didn't understand.
Qingfeng didn't answer, as if waiting for something.
Bodor coughed lightly, and a slightly old voice sounded: "You don't know, the waist order that sounded just now is the 'alarm waist order', and the guards will only issue it when a foreign clan is attacking or when the danger is uncontrollable. ”
Although Bodor is a scholar in Qingyun City, he has a high prestige among the human race. His words made everyone's faces ugly, and there was still such a bold person who dared to make trouble during the Terran Festival.
"You mean, old man...... Damn, come and make trouble at this time, the offender will be killed!" O'Hari didn't even think about it, and the clan motto blurted out.
Unlike the recklessness of the dwarven leader, Makino was much calmer.
"If it's really a foreigner attacker, then why did the Qingfeng City Lord send heavy troops to surround us instead of going to the city gate to resist the foreigners?" Makino said with a suspicious expression.
Qingfeng didn't answer, his eyes looked sharply at the audience, as if he thought the time was ripe, and said sharply: "All the foreigners in the field, today is the day of our Terran ceremony, you quietly mixed in, if you don't give an explanation to our Terran race, no matter which clan you are, no one wants to leave alive, I still have this strength." ”
At this time, everyone noticed that there were only about 100 people left in the nearly 1,000 people on the side of the venue, and some of them were wearing uniform costumes and black cloaks.
Kerry was shocked, it seemed that the wind had already discovered them, and had dragged the people around them out quietly. It seems that it is difficult to deal with such a situation.
"Is it the Cloak Man?" said Giant Tyke frowned as he looked at the man below.
"What?Cloak Man?"
As soon as Tyke's words came out, all the Terran warriors clenched their weapons and glared angrily at the aliens on the field. If it is really a cloaked man, no one will let go of these devils who destroy human nature.
After all, Kerry was the head of the family and the leader of the Phantom Clan, and he was not frightened by such a formation, his expression was calm, and he walked to the center of the venue with the eyes of hundreds of people, slowly pulled down the hood of his cloak, and his purple curly hair came into everyone's eyes.
"Phantoms, Kerry Tulin. Kerry said his name aloud, he didn't want his family to have anything to do with a devil like the Cloaked Man.
"Phantoms?"
"It's a phantom. ”
"What are you doing here?"
Suddenly the venue was boiling, no one expected that this group of uninvited guests was actually a phantom clan who had no grudges with them, but everyone still did not relax their vigilance, waiting for an "explanation".
"Father!" a crisp voice came from the stands.
Note 1: The Communication Waist Order refers to a token engraved with magical runes for communication. When the wielder needs to report the danger, he can throw it into the air, which will make a screeching sound and emit different colors of smoke depending on the rune.
