Chapter 138: Deterioration of condition
"Half a year later?" Lin Zai muttered, is it still too early to say that. I just don't know if the Witch Council will make a move on Hengcheng before the ruins are opened, or wait for the dust to settle before it will do it in Hengcheng.
However, the Wu Kingdom has arranged the Central Magic Array in the Kuangye Mountain Range so early, and there should be many variables after a long time, and it will be discovered by the people of Qi Heng City, Lin Zheng thought, Wu Guo should want to solve Qi Heng City before the wooden drum ruins are opened.
"Why does Wu Guo want to bite Qi Hengcheng and not let go. Lin Zheng frowned and asked suddenly.
"Huh?" Mu Qing's eyes flashed, he stared at Lin Zheng for a few seconds, and asked, "Do you know the plan that the Wu Kingdom has arranged in the Kuangye Mountain Range?"
"Hmm!" Lin Zheng didn't hesitate, nodded, and after pondering for a moment, he didn't avoid Mu Qing's eyes, "I also know that the Wu Kingdom also has a five-rank martial arts array master in this Kuangye Mountain Range, I think your uncle's injury should have been injured by him, right?"
Mu Qing was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at Xiongjian, and found that Xiongjian's face was also surprised at this time, he had been listening to their conversation beside him, so naturally he heard it too. He originally thought that Lin Zheng only knew about the people of the Witch Kingdom after coming into contact with the assassins of the Witch Kingdom, but he didn't expect that he actually knew about the Five-Rank Array Master of the Witch Kingdom.
Seeing their strange eyes, Lin Zheng became a little unnatural, he didn't want to explain, but now it doesn't seem to work if he doesn't explain something, "Ahem, I just accidentally discovered the sub-array of the Central Magic Array arranged by the Wu Kingdom." This central array can only be constructed with at least five grades, so I also speculated. ”
"Central Array?" the male sword's eyes suddenly froze.
"What? you don't know?" Seeing Xiongjian's sudden expression, Lin Zheng raised his eyebrows and asked in confusion. He thought he should know the purpose of the Witch Kingdom.
"I'm ashamed to say that. After a while, Xiongjian calmed down and sighed, "I originally wanted to find out what the people of the Wu Kingdom were planning here, but at that time I thought that the people of the Wu Kingdom were all small soldiers and generals or something, so I was not very careful, who knew that I was noticed by Tuzhi soon after entering the Kuangye Mountain Range." I didn't underestimate him, he didn't seem to be in his heyday, and even then I struggled to escape his tracking. ”
"Tuji?"
"This is the name of the five-rank martial arts array master in the Wu Kingdom. He is ruthless and unscrupulous in order to achieve his goals. Once, more than 100,000 captives from a defeated country were used as test subjects in the magic array he used for his research, and in the end, there was not a single one of the more than 100,000 people left, and all of them died. As a result, Tuji's notoriety spread. Xiongjian's eyes were full of disgust, and he said viciously.
Lin Zai's eyebrows raised slightly, he didn't expect this Tuzhi to be so ruthless that he would kill 100,000 people like mustard. Lin Zheng thought, if the Wu Kingdom defeated Qi Hengcheng, would Qi Hengcheng also end up like this?
"Then little brother, do you know what this central magic array is called?" the male sword retracted the look of disgust in his eyes, looked at Lin Zheng and asked.
"I don't know what it's called. Lin Zheng continued, "But I know that this array can control the brains of creatures with low mental defense, thus triggering a huge beast tide in the Kuangye Mountain Range. ”
"Can you control the brain? That seems to be the soul control array that Tuzhi has been studying, but I didn't expect him to come to the Kuangye Mountain Range to experiment with his magic array this time. Xiongjian's eyes narrowed, "Then it seems that his target should be Qi Hengcheng!"
"Well, that's what I thought, too. If this Soul Control Array can really cause a large-scale beast tide, then it will be effortless for the Witch Kingdom to occupy Qi Heng City!" Lin Zheng said with a solemn face, although he was not from Qi Heng City, he didn't want to see Qi Heng City become a dead city.
"Hmm!" Xiongjian's eyes narrowed slightly, and he nodded, "This is what I don't want to see, the defeat of Qi Hengcheng by the Wu Kingdom is bound to kill on a large scale, and even if there is a living mouth, it is bound to become an experiment or a woman who is treated as a plaything." Xiongjian suddenly looked up at Lin Zheng, "So if you can get out, I hope you will reveal the plan of the Wu Kingdom to the people of Qi Heng City, at least let them be on guard and minimize the losses." ”
"That's all?" Lin Zheng smiled meaningfully, the relationship between the Heavenly Sword Dynasty and Qi Heng City should not be big, and Xiongjian came to the Kuangye Mountain Range to investigate the Wu Kingdom just because of this?
"Ahem, hehe. Xiongjian coughed twice as soon as he wanted to laugh, and Mu Qing on the side greeted him with a worried face when he saw this, patting Xiongjian's back, Xiongjian waved his hand, indicating that there was no big problem, and Mu Qing had no choice but to give up when he saw this. Then Xiongjian forcibly suppressed the urge to cough, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and continued: "It is indeed more than that, if the Wu Kingdom occupies Qi Heng City so easily, it will also be a bad thing for our Heavenly Sword Dynasty. And the Wu Kingdom can add some deterrence before the opening of the wooden drum site, deterring the forces that may be about to move because of the wooden drum site, and play a role in killing chickens and monkeys. ”
"You want to use Qi Heng City to reduce the power of the Witch Kingdom?" Lin Zheng's eyes narrowed as he looked at the male sword, piercing the meaning of the male sword.
Xiongjian glanced at Lin Zheng and nodded, "This is indeed my original intention of coming to the Kuangye Mountain Range, and it is also the decision of the Heavenly Sword Dynasty, but I also really don't want to see Qi Heng City become a dead city." If the beast tide of the Wu Kingdom can be stopped, then before the end of the wooden drum ruins, the Wu Kingdom should not have any thoughts about Qi Hengcheng. Qi Hengcheng will also have some time to breathe. ”
Lin Zheng smiled, "Actually, I don't need you to say it, I originally planned to reveal this matter to Qi Hengcheng." ”
"What's the matter, do you still have a little relationship with Qi Hengcheng?" Xiongjian raised his eyebrows, obviously he didn't expect Lin Zheng to say this, he also thought that Lin Zheng had been in the mountains since he came from the outer continent. In this way, he should have been to Qi Heng City.
"As you said, I don't want to see Qi Heng City become a dead city. Lin Zheng's face was calm, and then he looked up at Xiongjian and continued to ask, "But you still haven't said it, why is the Wu Kingdom eyeing Qi Heng City?"
"Hmm~ Outsiders know that Wu Guo is afraid that Qi Heng City will grow too fast, and there is a tendency to grow into a first-class force in the Northern Realm, after all, it is not easy for a city to become a first-class force. The Wu Kingdom was afraid that if it developed again, it would squeeze into the first-class forces, so it wanted to suppress it. Xiongjian paused, seeing that Lin Zheng was still listening carefully, Lin Zheng knew that there was something to say later, Xiongjian smiled and continued: "Qi Hengcheng has been established for more than a hundred years, and it has developed rapidly, while the Wu Kingdom has stood for thousands of years. It is said that Mu Zhi, the founder of Qi Heng City, was a person from the defeated country of the former Wu Kingdom. ”
"Mu Zhi, the founder of Qi Heng City, is a native of the country that the Wu Kingdom once occupied?" Lin Zheng was slightly surprised, "This really corresponds to a sentence - keep the green mountains and don't be afraid of no firewood." ”
"But you may be surprised that Mu Zhi, who lost his home at the time, was just a young pheasant boy who was just starting out in martial arts, and he was out training and fell into a dangerous situation, escaping the killing of the witch kingdom. When he finally got out of danger, he was greeted by even greater despair, and when he returned to his homeland, he was greeted by broken walls, corpses all over the field, and devastation. ”
Xiongjian stopped, took a deep breath, I don't know if he was shocked by Mu Zhi's experience, or because of his body, he glanced at Lin Zheng, who had a surprised face on his face, and continued: "But he was not defeated by the despair in front of him, and carved a scar on his face with his sword to spur himself on. Cultivating in seclusion, I don't know what kind of training he has experienced, but it must have been very painful. In the end, with his original talent, he finally became a dark horse powerhouse and was born. ”
"Qi Heng City, originally known as Wu Gong City, was a city occupied by Wu Guo, but it was destroyed by him alone, expanded the city, recruited talented people, and changed its name to Qi Heng City. ”
"Qi Heng City was originally the city of the Wu Kingdom, so the Wu Kingdom didn't take any measures?" Lin Zheng was slightly surprised, although he admired Mu Zhi very much, but he thought that Mu Zhi at that time should not have the ability to fight against the Wu Kingdom. If so, it shouldn't be as simple as a small town.
"Although the witch city is occupied by the witch country, the people of the witch country are basically concentrated in the mainland and rarely stationed in other places, so the only people stationed in the witch city are shrimp soldiers and crab generals. The kingdom of Wu once sent people to capture Mu Zhi, but in the end, those who went there were all beaten by Mu Zhi and fled. I don't know why, but the Wu Kingdom has been quiet since then, and there is no trouble for him. Xiongjian's eyes flickered slightly, "But recently, the people of the Wu Kingdom have known that the city lord of Qi Heng City is the person from the defeated country that they occupied back then, because recently they found some missing people from the Wu Kingdom, although there are no specific clues, but they all point to Mu Zhi." They knew that if Qi Hengcheng was allowed to continue to develop like this, when the time came, they would squeeze into the first-class forces, and the Wu Kingdom would definitely have one more immortal enemy. So now they decided to strike first, strangle Qi Hengcheng in the cradle, and never suffer in the future. ”
"That's it! It turns out that there is such a relationship between the city lord of Qi Heng City and the Wu Kingdom. Lin Zheng's eyes flickered, and he nodded and said deeply. A young man has grown into a strong man, and even the self-made forces are thriving, and there is a tendency to catch up with the Witch Kingdom.
This made Lin Zheng very impressed, and he really wanted to see this city lord of Qi Heng City. His current situation seems to be similar to that of him at that time, but he is at least still stunned, and Mu Zhi has only resisted that pain alone, and turned grief into strength.
Just as Lin Zheng was thinking, Xiongjian's face suddenly became very pale, and there was no trace of blood on his face. That kind of pale is even slowly becoming black, it is not a kind of black blood black, but there is a black air flow overflowing from the pores. The body of the male sword suddenly lost its support, and the diameter fell.
