Black Rock City was in chaos.

The densely packed drums became more and more urgent, and finally almost formed a line, and its sound was like thunder.

Mu Yang walked out of the City Lord's Mansion and rushed towards Cuiyun Tower, and happened to meet Sisi and Ye Yu who came on the way, after learning the news that the demon army was about to besiege the city, Sisi was just stunned, and his face did not show too much surprise, it seemed that he had long expected this result.

What Muyang didn't expect was that as soon as she heard that the demon army was besieging the city, Ye Yu, whose sleepiness had not completely faded on her face, suddenly came to her senses, not only did she not feel afraid, but her beautiful eyes poured out indescribable excitement and surprise.

"Great, this county lord finally has a chance to kill the demon army!"

Seeing Ye Yu almost jumping up with excitement, Mu Yang felt his scalp explode for a while, and he didn't understand how the prince of the Great Xia Kingdom gave birth to such a heartless daughter, the demon army was besieging the city, and she didn't know how many people were going to die, but then again, at this critical juncture of life and death, Ye Yu didn't show the slightest fear on his face, but Mu Yang secretly admired, compared to the soldiers and generals of the City Lord's Mansion were inferior.

The chaotic and frightened shouts of the people in the city became weaker and weaker in the dense drumming, and in less than half a pillar of incense, there was no longer a single figure in the streets and alleys, and the noisy Black Rock City seemed to have suddenly fallen into a deep sleep.

Mu Yang took Sisi Ye Yu to the tower of the South City Gate, and bypassed a soldier with a famous sword unsheathed and a crossbow wound to Ge Tianbing's side.

"Just such a little person?"

Seeing less than two hundred soldiers and dozens of hunters standing scattered on the eight-meter-wide city wall, Mu Yang frowned.

"Half went to the north of the city. ”

Ge Tianbing said with a gloomy face: "There are less than five hundred soldiers in the city, and more than a hundred were killed and wounded when encircling and suppressing Xue Sanliang, and there are still three hundred and fifty-one people who can fight at present," he paused, and glanced at the hunter who was sandwiched between the soldiers, "I have already issued a summoning order with the sound of drums, and the cultivators and adult men in the city will come to support soon." ”

After listening to Ge Tianbing's words, Mu Yang didn't say anything more.

The demon army came faster than expected, and when a large banner with a blood-dripping skull pattern faintly appeared in the dust and fog that was getting closer and closer, all the soldiers defending the city felt the city wall under their feet begin to tremble slightly, and then heard the sound of heavy hooves and feet on the ground.

Mu Yang stood on the city gate, his eyes narrowed slightly, his line of sight quickly shortened with the approaching demon army, Sisi standing beside him was holding a deer antler bow, and there was no expression on his beautiful little face, only the blue eyes flashed with a cold light from time to time.

Ye Yu, who was still excited before the demon army approached, suddenly turned pale after seeing the tall and hideous demon warriors under the skeleton, and the best Horcrux five-colored golden lotus, which was inserted on her chest as a corsage, was already held in her hand, and she held the compass-shaped low-level Horcrux in her other hand.

Looking at the rapidly approaching demon army, more than 200 warrior hunters on the city gate consciously drew their bows and arrows without Ge Tianbing's order, aiming ahead. This time, they were holding the Great Xia* standard longbow in their hands, and in the case of flat projectiles, the maximum range could reach two hundred and fifty meters, and with the help of the nearly nine-meter-high walls of Black Rock City, the coverage distance would be even farther.

The demon army did not attack the city immediately, and they stopped more than 400 meters away from the city.

The sky was getting dark, clouds were obscuring the sun, and the wind suddenly blew on the desert, and the pungent smell of blood mixed with the air drifted to the city gates, and ran down the noses of the soldiers and hunters who defended the city and into their lungs. Everyone shuddered almost at the same time, and their eyes showed deep fear.

The fact that the defender hunters on the frontier are fierce and warlike does not mean that they are unaware of fear, which comes from the number of demon armies, and most importantly has to do with the notoriety of the Blood Skull Legion.

After the human border defense line was lost a year ago, news of the fall of the city continued to reach Black Rock City, and the names of several brave and warlike demon legions were quickly known to the defenders of the city.

Among these legions, there are the Shadow Legion, which is good at night attacks, the Iron Bear Legion, which is good at storming, and the Windwind Legion, which is known for its speed, and the first in line is the Blood Skull Legion.

Compared to other legions, the Blood Skull Legion had the smallest number of people, but their notoriety spread throughout the Great Xia Kingdom in just one month, and the reason for this was the bloodthirstiness and ferocity of this legion, and their greatest preference was...... Slaughter the city.

In the past year, the Blood Skull Legion has captured a total of twenty-one human cities, and every time they capture a city, they will hold a slaughter feast, from the city lord and defenders, down to the old and weak, women and children, and never leave a single mouth alive. In addition to killing, the most frightening thing is the ancient tradition of cannibalism of the Blood Skull Legion, not only the brutal war beasts in the army, but also the ordinary soldiers are said to often feed on human flesh.

When gathering people and horses to defend the city, Ge Tianbing did not say which demon army army was attacking the city, and now he suddenly saw the hideous blood-dripping skull banner, and the defenders of Black Rock City, who were known for their barbarism and ferocity, suddenly felt a chill in their hearts, as if they saw that the scythe of death was already on their necks, and the hand holding the bow couldn't help but tremble.

That's the Blood Skull Legion, with 2,000 elite cavalry, with the hundreds of defenders of Black Rock City, how can they stop it?

The fear came suddenly, disappeared even faster, and it seemed that it was only a very short moment, and the feelings of the warriors were stabilized. Feeling the sudden aggravation of the snorts of his subordinates quickly subside, a smile of relief flashed in Ge Tianbing's cold eyes, thinking that these boys could turn fear and despair into war intent in such a short period of time, and they did not disappoint themselves.

"Why did they stop?"

Ye Yu stood beside Mu Yang, looking nervously ahead, more than a dozen spells she had learned in the past were constantly circling in her mind, and when she was calculating the distance and hesitating which spell to cast to kill the enemy, she saw that the demon army suddenly stopped, and couldn't help but blurt out.

"What do you say? Mu Yang said casually.

"Are you scared?"

Muyang: "......"

"Someone seems to have come out. Ge Tianbing said suddenly. In his sight, a demon warrior slowly walked out on a war horse.

"What's in his hand?" Ye Yu also noticed.

Ge Tianbing narrowed his eyes, "It's not a weapon, it's round, like a human head?"

"Ahh Ye Yu let out an exclamation.

"It's a human head. Mu Yang said lightly, "We still have brothers who haven't come back?"

"Everything that can be returned has been returned. ”

Ge Tianbing stared at the demon warrior who was getting closer and closer, and his face was a little ugly.

Mu Yang naturally understood the hidden meaning of Ge Tianbing's words, and changed the topic: "When the Blood Skull Corps attacked the city, it was simple and direct, I haven't heard of sending people out to negotiate, maybe it is trying to persuade you to surrender." ”

"It's hard to say. Ge Tianbing's gaze moved to the rear of the demon army, "They don't seem to have brought siege equipment, all the cavalry who came, the city wall here is nearly nine meters high, and it is not impossible to persuade them to surrender." ”

Mu Yang sneered and didn't speak again.

The demon warrior walked all the way forward until he was less than fifty meters away from the city gate, and did not stop after the soldiers in the city issued a warning of 'take another step forward and fire the bow and arrows', he raised his head, glanced at the city tower contemptuously, and shouted in a not very proficient human language: "Listen to the defenders of the city, we are here to find someone, as long as you hand him over, I will spare you from death, otherwise, this is your fate......"

As he spoke, the demon warrior raised his arm and threw the human head in his hand towards the castle tower.
