In the southeast region of the Source of Vitality Continent, a red team of several thousand people marched towards the north, and they were the armies from several major cities of Qingyun City. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

After a few days of traveling, they finally came from the sparsely populated snowy region to a warmer and easier place to live. But what was in front of them was not the same, and although they passed through countless cities, large and small, each place was in ruins. Now in front of them was another ruined castle, the smashed gates open and the blood-stained green banner hanging its head diagonally against the battered walls. The charred dirt mingled with all kinds of corpses, and the smell of decay was pungent and smoky...... Obviously, this is another Terran city that has been attacked by the Dark Alliance.

Seeing this, there was no movement in the entire army assembled at the city gate, and grief and anger suppressed the estrangement and conflict they had had had at Silvermark Castle. This also confirms Viri's original admonition that they need war.

At the front of the team, Jin Ming rode a huge wolf bear, and he looked at everything in front of him with solemn eyes. The wolf bear beneath him seemed to be attracted by the faint smell of blood, and the surrounding pupils were full of scarlet, and yellow saliva slipped from the huge fangs.

Jin Ming glanced sideways at Mu Tian beside him, although her face was still veiled with a green veil, he could still feel the sad and hateful expression on Mu Tian's face. Along the way, the once prosperous places of the Makinozu have been replaced by ruins and blood, and it is the blood of the Makinozu that always flows in her body......

"Lord Heijun, this is the former subordinate city of the Pastoral Capital, as long as it is at the current rate, and there are no accidents...... One day we will be able to reach the main city of the capital of the paste. Verry came from the front on horseback and in muddy water.

No surprises? Sometimes Jin Ming felt a trace of inexplicable disgust at the fact that Verry was so cautious and careful in everything he said, but he couldn't find fault with it, as if the meat stuffed between his teeth couldn't be removed.

"Over there, how's the situation?" Jin Ming nodded and asked.

He was certainly not referring to the ruins in front of him, but to their destination, the capital of pasture. This sentence also touched Mu Tian's heart, after all, it was her home, and there were people she cared about the most. Although its ruler had hurt himself physically and mentally, he could not stop her thoughts.

"Although the capital of the pasture is impregnable, according to the news released by the dark coalition forces besieging the city, the reserves in the city of the city are insufficient...... Of course, it is also possible that they are playing tricks, because the siege has been unsuccessful for months, the ammunition and food have been exhausted, and they have already searched all the surrounding towns that can be looted, and they have run out of supplies, so they will release such a rumor. Verry analyzed.

Jin Ming's expression was puzzled, in his heart, the Dark Alliance had always been cruel and unreasonable, and he would definitely do whatever it took to achieve an evil goal, but listening to Viri's description, he felt a big contrast.

Verry seemed to see Jin Ming's doubts, so he leaned close and said, "My lord, it is not the real Dark Alliance Army that is currently besieging the Pastoral Capital......

"What do you mean?" Jin Ming said with a frown.

"They are just rebels of all races, fleeing to the abyss of death to avoid wanted and prison to become lackeys of the Dark Alliance. Therefore, these people have no discipline, and even kill each other for the sake of profit, of course, these rabble have no plan to break through the gate of the pastoral capital, so even if they are superior in numbers, they are still deadlocked until now. ”

Jin Ming knew that this news was good news for them, since it was a rabble, then he would not lose too many troops if he recaptured the pastoral capital. He always remembered that this was a small empty army, and he couldn't let it become less and less, but more and more......

A few scouts briefly inspected the situation in the dwarf forest fort, and after reporting that they were safe, the large army began to sail into the city in a mighty manner. Of course, the largest place in the fort belongs to the place where the steward lives, and it also belongs to Jin Ming and others, but in fact, except for the larger place, the things in it are basically either looted or smashed and burned, but even so, it is more comfortable than the marching tents along the way. They simply cleaned up and rested peacefully, probably the last undisturbed night before the war.

The next morning, the trumpet woke everyone up. Immediately afterward, the soldiers who had been left behind in the entire dwarf forest fort began to pack their luggage, feed their mounts, and prepare for their destination, the capital of herdium.

The road from the dwarf forest castle to the pastoral capital was built very formally, which also made them a lot faster. Jin Ming constantly sent scouts to the front to spy on the military situation, because he was afraid that this group of rabble would also have a bright day, and if a sentry was set up to find them, it would be worth the loss. But after sending it out a few times, Jin Ming found that he was completely overly worried, this group of rebels did not have a single guard post at all, maybe they thought that there was no one in this world who would support this forgotten city.

Since there were no fortified posts, the speed of the troops began to increase, and by noon they were already very close to the capital of the pasture. All the soldiers had their weapons drawn on this last leg of the journey, for they had seen from afar the battlements of the capital of the pasture and the blackened flags that floated in the air around them.

One announcer after another, riding fast horses, informed the front of the group at any time, and finally all the troops stopped when they were at a certain distance from the besieging army. Due to the eastern grassland, which is the source of vitality in the depths of the pastoral capital, except for the clean flat land within a few hundred meters in front of the city gate, the outer perimeter of the city is covered by layers of tall grass and low bushes like wheat waves. So thousands of soldiers were all hidden inside, staring at the lackeys of the Dark Coalition who were about the same number as they were like leopards lurking in the shadows ready to hunt.

Jin Ming was in control of the overall situation at the front of the team, with his henchman Viri next to him, and Mu Tian and Aiya behind him. It was the first time for Aya to come to the Pastoral Capital, and if these terrible things hadn't happened, her face would have been excited and joyful at this time. But she understood that the sadness and anger on Miss Mu Tian's face were all given to her by the city.

"There are no sentry, no guards, everyone is still groggy, as long as we are in a hurry...... Hehe, you can kill them without leaving a piece of armor!" said Verry with a grim laugh.

Although Jin Ming didn't like his laughter, it was true. The gates of the city were closed, and in front of them were all rebels of all races dressed in black, and they only needed to rush over and kill them by surprise, and the capital of the pasture would be saved before dark.

Just as Jin Ming was about to give an order, there was a sudden change in front of him.

"What's going on?" Jin Ming's eyes flashed with uneasiness.

I saw that the originally calm and impermanent camp of the Dark Alliance began to stir, and people kept rushing out of the tent, as if they had found something.

When Jin Ming and the soldiers of Qingyun City who were hiding in the grass were unknown, Mu Tian led his horse to Jin Ming's side, and said in a calm and trembling tone: "The city gate is open......

Only then did Jin Ming discover that the originally closed gate of the Pastoral Capital was slowly opening. This sudden situation left everyone at a loss as to what to do, and they could only slowly watch the situation spread. But what happened next made them regret the sluggish reaction.

When the door opened at a suitable angle, out of it stepped out a Terran soldier in green armor, his body trembling and shaking a huge banner in his hand. However, this flag is not the flag of the Pastoral Capital, but a white flag without any pattern, and now everyone knows the reason for all this anomaly.

"It's ...... White flag?are they going to surrender?!" Verry was the first to call out, "Woe! To surrender to the Dark Alliance is to give up your sword and let them plunge it into your chest!"

As soon as Very finished speaking, a scene occurred in the distance that made everyone angry, and the rebel of unknown clan directly plunged the long sword in his hand into the soldiers of the Pastoral Capital who came to ask for surrender, and then the vassals of the Dark Alliance behind him squeezed into the city gate like mad dogs stepping on his corpse. By then, it was too late to close the gates.

I saw the Dark Coalition troops leap out of their tents like wolves, and some even naked. Thinking that there would be countless innocent old people and girls in the city, Mu Tian whipped the fierce horse under him hard, and rushed straight out of the grass and straight towards the group of demons who were still pouring towards the city gate.

"Oops!" Jin Ming had just recovered from that scene, so he immediately ordered support to go over.

At this time, the thousands of soldiers who had been hiding in the grass for a long time attacked like cheetahs, but a small half of the dark alliance army had already poured into the city of Muzhi.

When Jin Ming drove the wolf bear into the camp of the Dark Alliance, he found that this rabble had not realized that their rear had been attacked, but had just rushed towards the open gate as if they were enchanted. Jin Ming led the army to constantly slash and kill the rebels of various tribes in the rear, but he was never able to prevent them from breaking into the herding capital like locusts. The wolf and bear continued to roar and tear at them, and the green dragon in the sky sprayed a poisonous green dragon breath that corroded them. Only then did most people finally realize that a sea of red had drowned them.

The rabble, which could not be compared with Jin Ming's thousands of regular troops, was even more defeated at this time. The soldiers of Qingyun City quickly cleared the dark alliance forces blocking the city gates on the periphery, and then rushed into the city without stopping for a moment. But the state of the city also means that they have not been able to save these poor innocent people, who have been poisoned by the dark coalition everywhere they go...... Whether it was an old man or a child waiting to be fed, they were dragged out of the house to the door and slaughtered, some were still struggling with a weapon in their stomachs, some had lost their breath with several arrow feathers in their bodies, and there were also naked girls who were brutally violated.

Mu Tian kept rushing ahead, and the sword in her hand kept stabbing at the rebels who were still committing atrocities. Fortunately, the dark coalition army that rushed into the city was only a small part, and it had not rushed too deep into the city, and it was quickly cleaned up by the army brought by Jin Ming, but the damage they caused could not be compensated.

Mu Tian's veil had been removed, and the tattoo reflected anger and reddened slightly, hanging on her fair face. She looked at everything around her that had been destroyed by the rebels, and her sword hand was still trembling slightly. The sudden sound of footsteps behind her made her immediately turn around and raise her long sword to defend herself, only to find that it was Jin Ming and Viri.

Jin Ming looked at her with a worried expression, knowing how she felt at this time. Viri, on the other hand, rolled his eyes and thought of something.

"Why are these beasts so atrocious, and the soldiers in the city of Muzhidu have not yet appeared?Why are there soldiers from Muzhidu just now waving the banner of surrender?and......" Verry was about to ask, but was stopped by Jin Ming's eyes.

Mu Tian turned her head, the anger in her eyes became heavier and heavier, she seemed to know something, the long sword in her hand slammed into the ground, and turned around and walked in one direction in the city.

Jin Ming didn't know where she was going, but he knew that he couldn't let her walk through here alone at this time. So he said to Verry: "Bring a small group of elite soldiers to follow us, the rest of the army will be divided into several small teams to guard the city gate, and the rest will search the city carefully, and do not let go of the remnants of a dark coalition army." But warn them not to harm innocent people. ”

Veri nodded in acceptance, then turned around to arrange his troops, while Jin Ming chased in the direction that Mu Tian left alone. When he traveled through the second largest city of the human race, the prosperity and noise of the past were long gone, and the deserted streets and the fear of the people were full of it, and it seemed that the fear given to them by the dark alliance was deep-rooted, even if the other party was only one person.

The further he went, Jin Ming gradually felt Mu Tian's purpose. Sure enough, when he was about to catch up with Mu Tian, a huge palace appeared in front of him. The whole palace is very special because it is completely raised from the ground, built on top of a huge ancient tree, and is connected to the palace by only a wide arch bridge. This should be the legendary Green Floating Palace, and Jin Ming has also heard of its fame, but at this time, it did not make him want to appreciate it. He looked into the arched bridge, but suddenly found that all the soldiers who had disappeared in the entire city were crowded here, densely packed with nearly a hundred people. Jin Ming estimated that this should be all the troops of the Muzhidu now, and after several months of killing, this was their only remaining soldier.

Mu Tian was in front, she slowly walked towards the arched bridge, and the guards of nearly 100 people also spotted her, and then surrounded her vigilantly. At this time, Jin Ming had already followed her, watching the other party's actions, he secretly prayed in his heart that the army sent by Verri could arrive in time before the accident happened.

Mu Tian stopped before he walked to the arch bridge, and the soldiers on the other side of the arch bridge began to stir. Then a general-like figure in green armor walked through them. The expression on his face was wary at first, but when he saw the appearance of the visitor clearly, he turned into surprise and said tremblingly, "Mu Tian...... Miss Mu Tian, you ...... Why are you here?...... Dark Alliance" Then he glanced at Jin Ming behind Mu Tian again, his expression even more puzzled.

"Captain Order, they're already in hell. Mu Tian glanced at him lightly and replied in a cold tone.

"It turns out that they know each other, so it's easy to do......" Jin Ming thought silently. It's just that what he didn't know was that the tattoo on Mu Tian's face was given by this person. Back then, the shepherd shot her through the cheek in order to kill her dragon, but she didn't expect to meet again at this moment.

"But why did you open the city gates, why did you hide here and not resist the demons that are plagued the people?" Mu Tian's expression was still cold, but there was already a tingling pain from his fingertips in his palms.

"I ...... We are also at the behest of the lord of the city...... Protect the important ministers and nobles here......" The pastoral order replied with little confidence, and her whole body trembled, I don't know if it was because of the tattoo on her face or because she was ashamed of the answer.

"Ministers and nobles, isn't the lives of the people in the city their lives?" Mu Tian looked directly into Mu Ling's eyes, and then turned to the nearly 100 soldiers behind him, and said in a clear voice, "I believe that there are also your parents, wives and children there, so you can bear to let them be ravaged by that group of demons and not resist?"

This sentence first silenced all the soldiers of the Pastoral Capital, and then began to commotion, and even the expressions on the faces of some of them began to be covered with anger.

"The lord of the city commanded us not to ...... Don't resist. It was hard to believe that a voice as weak as a mosquito could come out of the mouth of the stout man.

"Mu Ye......" Mu Tian muttered softly with hatred. She understood that this group of soldiers was just doing their duty, and they could not disobey the orders of the city lord, but in fact, there was already a germ of resistance in their hearts.

Perhaps it was a deliberate manipulation by the heavens, and after Mu Tian shouted out that name, the door of the Green Floating Palace began to slowly open. More than a dozen soldiers from the capital of the pasture were the first to come out. This was followed by a group of wealthy people who were usually high-spirited, but at this time their faces were full of horror. When the last group of people walked out, Mu Tian's eyes suddenly fluttered. Because she saw her mother in green armor and a long whip in her hand. Mu Xiang didn't notice that it was her daughter standing at the arched bridge at first, and when she looked over vigilantly, the long whip in her hand slipped directly.

This scene happened to be seen by Mu Ye, who was the last to come out behind him, and he thought that Mu Xiang saw the Dark Coalition army pressing down, and hurriedly shouted in a torn voice: "Don't do anything! We have surrendered...... We have surrendered. But he found that all the soldiers around him looked at him with abnormal expressions, and instead of the previous submission, they had a anger that was incomprehensible to him. He realized that things might not be what he thought, so Makino staggered to the arch bridge. Sure enough, he didn't see the dark coalition army pressed by the black press, and there was only a woman and a fat man in front of him. He had just relaxed his tense nerves, when suddenly, he took a few steps back, stared at his glowing red eyes, and pointed at the man in front of him with trembling hands.

"Shepherd...... How could you ......? Here?"

Makino's words also made the people who were hiding in the Green Floating Palace just now see clearly the woman in front of them, who turned out to be the hope of the capital of Mu, but was married to the wild West Wild because of the confrontation with the city lord. This includes a Muqing University scholar with a much older face, and Mu Lun, the son of the city lord with a complicated expression.

Mu Tian did not answer Mu Ye's words, but looked at him coldly. This also made Mu Ye panic in his heart, can he stand here so indifferently at this time to explain that something must have happened outside the city, is it ......

"I'm asking you!" Makino wanted to show the majesty of the castle lord, but no matter how he disguised it, he was obviously weak.

"Surrender?" Mu Tian asked rhetorically, "You actually handed over the lives of the entire Terran Race in Muzhidu to those demons?"

Makino's wrinkled face twitched, as if anticipating something.

"I ...... I...... How do I decide, it's my business, I'm the lord of a city, and it's not your turn to be a traitor! I gave you the opportunity to atone for your sins and let you marry a barbarian, but I didn't expect it...... I didn't expect you to dare to disobey my orders and flee halfway?! Otherwise, if we get the support of those barbarians, will our Makiyuki end up like this?" Makino's eyes were full of flames, and the anger of being oppressed by the Dark Alliance in the past few months was about to be vented at this moment, and he seemed to have forgotten whether there was such a thing as the Dark Alliance.

"Someone, arrest this traitor for me!" Makino shouted. But only his own voice echoed his orders, and not a single one of the nearly a hundred guards obeyed.

"Pastoral order!" Makino shouted at the captain of the guard with a twisted face.

At this time, Mu Ling's heart is also struggling, he has been loyal to Makino since his youth, and he has no other heart for more than ten years. However, this time his loyalty was shaken by Mu Tian's words and the madness of the city lord.

"Pastoral order, I order you to take her!" Makino shouted again.

Helplessly, the pastoral order was only executed with a wave of his hand, and nearly a hundred guards in green armor behind him walked towards Mu Tian neatly, although the spears and swords in their hands were raised, no one was willing to aim at her.

Just as they had taken a few steps, a louder and more neat footsteps came from behind Mu Tian and Jin Ming. Immediately after that, rows and rows of red came towards the arched bridge like a red tide, and it was the elite soldiers of Qingyun City, who were five times as many as the guards of the herding capital, led by Viri on a black horse.

Hearing this voice, Jin Ming breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, this army could be regarded as coming in time.

Seeing this, the guards of the Pastoral Capital stopped their pace, which was what they were most willing to do now.

Makino watched the red legion press, his eyes changed from angry to shocked, and he couldn't say a word for a while. He tried to see the leader at the front, for he felt that the face was so familiar to him, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

Mu Tian turned his head slightly and saw the hundreds of soldiers from Qingyun City standing behind him, and then looked at Jin Ming with a smile on his face. She nodded slightly, and he helped himself again. Then, she turned back to Makino, who was already stunned.

"Makino, from now on you are no longer the lord of the city of Makino!" Mu Tian said sharply.

One sentence stunned everyone, and even Jin Ming behind him felt that it was very sudden. And Makino first opened his eyes wide, the corners of his eyes kept twitching, and then he began to laugh wildly, as if he was crazy. The woman abandoned him, the dragon abandoned him, and the position of lord of the city was the only thing he depended on now, as precious as his life.

"You...... What do you say? haha...... What qualifications do you have to say that?!Makinoduki is the inheritance of my ancestors for hundreds of years, and it can be decided by a traitor of you?" Makino's tone couldn't harden, if it weren't for the forces in front of him that were several times more numerous than them, he would have rushed over with his sword.

"You have abandoned the people and surrendered to the Dark Alliance?If your ancestors knew about your degrading behavior, would they leave the Pastoral Capital to you to manage?, I think they will take it from you with their own hands!" Mu Tian said.

"You...... You ......" Makino said several times in a row, his trembling hand clutching the sword at his waist. He didn't know what to do at this time, and although the guards didn't turn back, they no longer listened to him. But he can't lose the position of the city lord, and he can't lose the position of the city lord...... Makino muttered several times in a row, and suddenly he saw Mu Xiang, who had been watching his daughter not far away, and his body rushed over in an instant.

"Mother!" Mu Tian's face, which had always been calm, suddenly changed color at this moment.

Everyone didn't expect Makino's actions, and the long sword in his hand was already on the neck of the chief sect leader of the capital of Makinomu at this time, and a blood mark had flowed from his white neck.

"Haha......" Mu Ye laughed wildly, and the blade in his hand kept rubbing against Mu Xiang's skin.

"Makino...... Let her go!" Mu Tian couldn't calm down, silently thinking something in his heart.

"Castle lord or your mother, you can choose one!" haha......" Makino continued to shout.

"Father, don't be so obsessed!" Mu Lun didn't expect his father to do such a heartbreaking thing, and sincerely persuaded him.

"Yes, Cheng...... Makino, don't make a big mistake!" the scholar of Muqing University was also persuading on the side, and changed the title according to the situation.

"yes......"

"That's right......"

The other nobles also began to turn against each other and persuade Makino.

"Haha......" Makino continued to laugh wildly, "you dogs really choose their masters in time, haha...... In that case, if you want me to die, then I will fulfill you, but even if I die, I will take the next companion. ”

With that, Makino's long sword was horizontal, but before he could complete his next move, a green phantom mixed with the smell of blood and corrosion struck. No one could see what was happening, so Makino flew out and slammed his body to the ground in front of the gate of the Green Floating Palace, with only a faint breath coming from his body. At the same time, the long sword that was still lying in front of Mu Xiang's neck had just landed, and Mu Xiang, who was bleeding too much, was directly paralyzed to the ground.

Mu Tian ran directly across the arch bridge without any consideration, and the hundred guards of Mu Zhidu gave way one after another. Mu Tian ran to her mother, she was slightly tentative, but fortunately, the sound of steady breathing reassured her. At this moment, an old man walked up to her and bowed slightly to examine Mu Xiang's wound, and took out a green vial from his arms, sprinkled the powder inside on the wound, and the blood immediately stopped.

"Thank you, Great Doctor Yuling. Mu Tian looked at the kind old man who had healed his scars and said respectfully.

"City Lord, this is what a minister should do. Yuling bowed slightly, and his vigorous and powerful voice resounded throughout the long steps of the Green Floating Palace. An extremely sharp dragon roar followed, and after a flash of green light, a huge green dragon, wearing green armor, descended beside Mu Tian. Its glowing green eyes looked around at everyone condescendingly.

This sudden turn of events also made all the other soldiers and dignitaries present understand what the situation was.

"City Lord!" the priest was the first to walk up to the girl who had saved the entire city, and knelt on one knee without hesitation. Immediately afterwards, nearly 100 soldiers of the capital of the pasture also stuck their weapons on the ground and knelt on one knee like the captain. Finally, the officials and nobles who had been hiding in the Green Floating Palace before, without exception, also knelt down to meet the new city lord.

She looked around, caressing Qinghong's scales as she said, "From today onwards, the alliance between Muzhidu and Qingyun City will no longer kill each other, but defend against our enemies together, that group—"

"Dark Demon!"

This sentence recalls the fighting spirit of the soldiers of the Pastoral Capital, and the green armor seems to be shining as well, the kind of green light that symbolizes life and hope.
