Chapter 923: Difficult Rescue
In the Divine Realm, the atmosphere above the city was extremely solemn.
Since Elder Zhao completed the restoration, the people of the Divine Realm were panicked.
Although the House of Elders, headed by Elder Li, has not ruled for a long time, everyone has become accustomed to that kind of stress-free days, and now that Elder Zhao has come to power, the previous regulations that were beneficial to the people have all been abolished, and everyone feels unaccustomed to it.
Moreover, Elder Zhao ordered the arrest of people close to the Li and Lei families, plus his old team officials to take revenge, tens of thousands of people have been tortured, except for a few who were killed on the spot, the rest were all taken to prison cells and awaited judgment.
The first thing Elder Zhao did after coming to power was to confiscate the Terran materials from the major trading companies free of charge, and the right to sell them once again belonged to the Elders.
This behavior has caused a shortage of materials in the market, prices have skyrocketed, and the people have complained.
In addition, all kinds of items produced in the divine realm must also be handed over to the Council of Elders for unified sales.
In addition to the huge profits, Elder Zhao also had people intercept items of high grade and give them to the ancestor as offerings.
In just a few days, the Divine Realm changed from its previous thriving scene and became lifeless.
The people dared not speak out, because the Council of Elders had a clear rule that anyone who dared to express their grievances in public would be subject to severe sanctions.
There was no opposition, Elder Zhao felt very satisfied, in addition to being complacent, he would also run to the ancestor to ask for credit.
For his dictatorship, the ancestor did not say a word and let it go.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, this is also normal, the ancestor has lived for tens of thousands of years, and everything is a passing cloud for him, because there are too many things he has seen and experienced, and he has long looked down on it.
Therefore, let Elder Zhao do whatever he wanted.
In fact, he still pays attention to one thing, that is, his lifespan, he needs a large number of medicinal materials and pills to maintain it every day, and Elder Zhao serves him very well at this point, which is enough for him.
In the cell, although Ye Yunyang tried his best to persuade him, everyone's hearts were still clouded, and everyone thought that there was no hope of getting out.
Only a few young people thought about it more openly, including Mi Yun and Li Hao.
Ye Yunyang and the guards asked for a few thick blank pieces of paper to make a deck of cards called "poker", and after teaching the two, the three guys started to fight the landlord, and they had a lot of fun.
Elder Zhao would come to inspect every day, and compared to Elder Li, who handed over the task of guarding to others, he seemed more serious.
Today was no exception, and after he was busy with the business at hand, he appeared next to the ventilation hole above the cell.
Seeing Ye Yunyang and the three of them playing cards and shouting loudly over and over again, he frowned slightly and said to himself: "This kid is even more open than I thought, he must think that I won't kill him, that's why he is so calm." ”
He really didn't want to kill Ye Yunyang, but he still wanted to keep this kid to conquer the human race.
But for the others, Elder Zhao had already moved to kill him, and in the past few days, people were preparing for the public trial conference, and once the preparations were completed, the death time of Elder Li and the others would have arrived.
"Hmph, let's live one more day. He snorted softly, and his attendant had reported to him half an hour earlier, saying that the public trial would be held tomorrow, and that it would be a crowded situation.
He attaches great importance to the so-called public trial, after all, no one wants to be considered illegal, and only in this way can the illegal hat be put on the heads of Elder Li and others to achieve the goal.
Back at the Council of Elders, he happened to meet the Ancestor to finish today's cultivation, so he went up to offer his courtesy.
The ancestor was in a good mood and said, "There is something that the deity needs to remind you that although you have locked so many important people together, although it is easy to manage, it is also extremely vulnerable to attack, and some people will take advantage of the chaos to escape. ”
Elder Zhao smiled and said, "Thank you Ancestor for reminding you, the juniors have made full preparations, and they have ambushed a large number of people around the prison, just waiting for the other party to appear." ”
Old Ancestor raised his eyebrows and asked, "According to what you mean, this is a trap?"
Elder Zhao nodded: "That's right, the junior wants to kill two birds with one stone and completely eliminate the remnants of Li and Lei." ”
"What if it's a Terran?"
"That's even better!" Elder Zhao said confidently, "Let them deeply understand the strength of the Protoss and honestly choose to surrender." ”
At this time, an attendant shouted outside: "Elder Zhao, a group of unidentified people stormed the prison and were stopped by our people who were ambushed on the periphery, and the two sides were fighting fiercely. ”
Elder Zhao's eyes lit up, and he turned around and asked, "How many people are there on the other side, do we have the upper hand?"
The attendant replied, "Yes, our people treat their work with ease, and the other party is not familiar with the place, and of course he will suffer a great loss." The number of enemies is between three hundred and four hundred, they are not of high rank, mainly in the Chaos Realm and the Mythical Realm, and in terms of clothing, they don't look like our Protoss. ”
Elder Zhao was happy: "The ancestor is like a god, and it is indeed a human race." They are too self-conscious, they actually focus on the Mythical Realm and the Chaos Realm, do they think that our Protoss has no one?"
Of the hundreds of people who were ambushed outside the prison, the Mythical Realm was the lowest level.
Old Ancestor smiled contemptuously and said, "Sure enough, it is a little self-sufficient, which shows that there are people in the prison that they value very much, and it is the right thing for you to leave Ye Yunyang alive." ”
"Old Ancestor praised. Elder Zhao clenched his fists and said, "Junior, go out and deal with it, and come back to talk to you later." ”
He made his way to the prison as fast as he could, and the sound of the fight could be heard from a long distance.
The intent to rob the prison was indeed a master of the Terran race, and they were surrounded by the same number of gods, and they couldn't get out for a while.
The Terran master group is dominated by disciples of the Fenglin faction, Wu Qinglin personally serves as the captain, and Zheng Zhiyuan is the assaulter.
According to the original plan, they quietly landed when the Protoss lost air supremacy, and then rescued Ye Yunyang in a surprise attack.
But I didn't expect that as soon as I approached the prison, I was stopped by the Protoss who had been in ambush for a long time.
The Protoss waited for work, and with the advantage of individual combat effectiveness, the Terran master group suffered a big loss.
Wu Qinglin changed his strategy in time, ordered to shrink the formation, and turned to the defense in a circular formation, looking for opportunities in the battle.
Elder Zhao's arrival boosted the morale of the Protoss, and they launched a fierce attack on the circular formation.
The Terrans suffered heavy losses, although there were dozens of combat-type shuttles in the air to cover them, but because the two sides were in a stalemate, they could not use missiles to attack, because it was easy to accidentally injure their own people.
A Protoss walked up to Elder Zhao's side, clasped his fists and said, "Great Elder, do you want to launch a full-scale attack and quickly eat this group." ”
Elder Zhao shook his head and said, "What's the hurry, they won't be able to run anyway, so let the children play more." ”
"Yes!"
As the minutes passed, the situation of the Terran master group became more and more serious, and every minute four or five people fell, and countless people were injured.
Including Wu Qinglin himself, he was also slightly injured.
Zheng Zhiyuan was slashed twice in the back, one of which was so deep that he could almost see the white vertebrae, and the blood was bleeding nonstop.
"Master, it's clear that this is a trap. He gasped.
Wu Qinglin also realized it, and said: "We shouldn't kill it directly, but we should send an assault team to explore the way first, it's too late to say anything now, everyone try to persevere, and create an opportunity for the air force to kill the enemy." ”
While the two were talking, two more were killed.
In the prison, everyone was listening with their ears pricked up.
The guards were overjoyed, while the prisoners were extremely disappointed, and finally someone came to save them, but they fell for Elder Zhao's misdeeds.
The situation outside became more and more severe, and more than half of the Terran master group had already suffered casualties, and at this moment, Ximen suddenly remembered the sound of shouting and killing, and a team of barbarian masters wearing animal skin suits came over.
Wu Qinglin was overjoyed and shouted happily: "Warriors, the barbarian brothers have come to support us, everyone work harder to kill all these guys in front of you!"
"Kill!" Zheng Zhiyuan shouted loudly, and his morale instantly ignited, like a raging fire.
There were more than 500 barbarian masters, and they released cold arrows while charging, and the Protoss was hit one after another.
On the high ground in the distance, Teng Xing'an, who was lying on the flying wings, said to himself: "To rescue this kind of thing, of course this king has to join in the fun, and all the credit is to let the human brothers snatch it, where is the face of this king." ”
Coincidentally, the barbarians not only thought of going with the Terrans, but also chose to carry out the rescue mission on the same day.
With the addition of a new force, the unfavorable situation of the Terrans was reversed in an instant, and the warriors of the two races joined forces to defeat the enemy and retreat, and quickly advanced in the direction of the prison gate.
"Elder Zhao?" the Protoss in charge of the on-site command panicked.
Elder Zhao smiled indifferently and said, "What's the hurry, let the other party taste some sweetness first, as the old saying goes, it hurts to climb high and fall, that's the truth." Three minutes later, he ordered all the staff to counterattack and wipe out the group. ”
"Understood!"
The alliance of the two clans continued to advance, and as they were about to reach the gate, the situation suddenly reversed.
Hundreds of Protoss masters came from all directions, and like those who appeared before, they had been in ambush for a long time, just waiting for the commander's order.
The strength of the Protoss was obviously superior, and after a short period of surprise, Wu Qinglin was once again sure that this was a trap, and Elder Zhao had a great appetite and wanted to eat the masters of the two clans together.
The barbarians went from being so brave just now that they could only cope with it, and the balance of victory once again tipped to the side of the Protoss.
Teng Xing'an also panicked, just now in order to save the Terran brothers from the predicament, he put the team that was originally divided into three waves together, and hundreds of people charged at the same time, which has achieved the goal of the tiger going down the mountain.
And now, he has no soldiers in his hands, let alone to save the human race, and even his own people have to pay for it.
Elder Zhao laughed and said arrogantly: "You guys who can't do enough to do anything, after solving you today, we will hold a public trial tomorrow to kill all the people you want to save, and see you in hell." ”
In the face of the impact like a tide, the masters of the two clans could only shrink the defensive circle and turn into a defensive state, seeing that the prison gate was close at hand, but they could not successfully enter.
The situation is very bad, Wu Qinglin's heart has completely fallen to the bottom, it doesn't matter if he dies, the disciples of the Fenglin Sect are not afraid of death, but he failed to rescue Ye Yunyang, and his heart is not happy.
No one noticed a detail, the southeast wind used to blow, but now it turned into a west wind, and it turned from a light breeze to a cold one, and a large dark cloud appeared in the sky, which looked extremely strange.
