Outside the city gate, twenty demon beasts with red eyes and scaly armor rushed quickly, and the bloody breath accompanied their running, rushing towards them. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Twenty demon beasts, most of the grades are in the second-order intermediate level, and the strongest is only a relatively ordinary type in the second-order high-level, which is equivalent to the Lingxuan Eightfold among human warriors.
This kind of quantity, in the eyes of the third-level team, is really nothing.
Therefore, when Qin Hao arrived at the city gate with the strong alliance of the people, what he saw in his eyes was the thirty warriors of the wolf's breath raising their swords, the cold light flickered, and in the roar of the piercing beast, the flesh and blood of the demon beast flew sideways.
Then, it was the scene where the wolf breathed everyone returned to the city, surrounded by the cheers of the city guards.
The clean and neat means made the status of Wolf Breath in the hearts of the city guards of Luoyun City a few points higher.
"With the cooperation of such a strong man, a few more waves of beast tides are nothing ......"
These were the words uttered by a member of the City Guard in the midst of a cheer that almost everyone agreed.
"Let's go!" Qin Hao shook his head, turned around and left.
Lei Gang followed by his side and said dissatisfiedly: "Since we don't need us, we don't have to come......"
"There aren't too many demon beasts going to this place in the first place...... Qin Hao patted him on the shoulder.
Judging from this scale, this task may be much easier than that of other teams.
Although the wolf breath is arrogant, and the number of people who come is only thirty, they have arrogant capital, and with their strength, it is not a problem to deal with more than two hundred ordinary second-order high-level demon beasts.
And the total combat power that the three hundred elite city guards can exert is much higher.
Only six hundred second-order high-level demon beasts could possibly fight against the guarding forces here.
However, how could six hundred demon beasts come to this remote town?
Qin Hao: They may not have a chance to make a move.
"Happy to relax......" Lei Gang pouted: "Since people can keep it, let's go to the form......"
A group of people chatted and returned to the small courtyard where they lived.
...... In the next few days, from time to time, there were small forces of earth demon beasts, wandering outside the city of Luoyun City, but every time the scene was the same as the first time.
Wolf Breath and the people of the city guards cooperated very strongly, and every time Qin Hao rushed there, he could only see the rotten meat piled together, and the disdainful smiles of Wolf Breath and the others.
Gradually, when the aura of demon beasts arrived, Qin Hao and the others were happy to stay where they were, too lazy to look at the white eyes of the city guards and wolf breath.
I thought that this situation would continue until the day I returned to the Wind Spirit Sect.
It was only in the middle of the night on the fourth day that a very drastic change took place.
The aura of the powerful demon beast infiltrated and spread from outside the city gate, gradually covering every corner of Luoyun City.
The civilians who were asleep all woke up, lit by the faint light, and looked anxiously in the direction of the city gate in the dim light.
The hundred guards stationed around the City Lord's Mansion rushed to the city, and the sound of orderly footsteps and bright firelight moved rapidly on the main road in the city.
When Qin Hao and the others heard the sound, they also quickly got up and rushed to the city gate.
Along the way, Lei Gang's expressions were all excited.
After a few idle days, they seemed indifferent, but they were all holding back the fire in their hearts, and they had long thought about killing a few demon beasts and letting the wolf breath people take a good look.
"Don't take it lightly......," Qin Hao frowned.
This aura was already so strong that he felt that he needed to be careful, and there was really something wrong with the appearance of such a number of demon beasts in this remote place.
When climbing the city wall where the soldiers were surging, the scene outside the city made everyone slightly startled.
Dense demon beasts rushed from the distant mountains and forests, kicking up billowing dust and sand.
There are nearly a hundred or more demon beasts, most of which are at the second-order level, and the demon beasts of this level, arrows, ballistas and other weapons to defend the city are not a threat to them, even if they are arrows shot by archers, they may not be able to break through their defenses.
And ordinary city walls can't withstand their several brutal collisions.
The city gate slowly opened with a loud noise, and the wolf-breathed warriors poured out like flowing water, and behind them were a hundred guards of Luoyun City with bright armor and cold swords.
The dazzling blood flower suddenly exploded when the wolf breath warrior crashed into the demon beast group, and the majestic roar was overwhelming and spreading.
"Let's go!" Qin Hao took a deep breath, climbed down the city wall, and walked towards the city gate.
Now is their time to do their part, and these monsters have become a threat.
When they reached the gates, several guards stopped them and blocked the gates.
"What does this mean......" Qin Hao narrowed his eyes.
Anger swelled up in everyone's hearts in = an instant.
"This amount of demon beasts, the city guards can still deal with ......" Outside the city gate, Commander Ye's cold voice came, those eyes, indifferent like a god on the high, looking down at the low ants among the clouds: "I don't need your helpers for the time being......"
A plain sentence, without contempt or anything like that, as if it was simply stating the facts.
"Commander Ye......" Qin Hao's heart also swelled up with a trace of anger at this moment, and he said coldly: "Second-order high-level demon beasts, their spiritual wisdom has been opened, and the city guards are well-trained, but they may not be ......."
"There is no need for this little brother to worry about it......" Commander Ye waved his hand, interrupting Qin Hao's words.
The pro-soldiers behind him were even more unpolite: "It's good for everyone to watch, if you are in danger, you have to be rescued by the city guards, then it will be troublesome." Anyway, you are also members of the Wind Spirit Sect, and Luoyun City is responsible for your safety......"
These words clearly treat them as a burden.
The faces of the people in the strong alliance sank in an instant.
Qin Hao looked at the pair of ancient wells without waves in the eyes of the Shangye Commander, and after a while, he took a deep breath, turned around and left: "Let's go back!"
With the surname of this Ye Commander, it is absolutely impossible to rush out of the city in front of him. At the moment of the attack of this demon beast, there must be no more internal friction.
Qin Hao and a group of people retreated to the city wall, watching the strangulation outside the city gradually heating up.
"I'll see later what kind of expressions they will look like when they can't handle it......" Lei Gang's face turned pale, and he said word by word.
"There is always a chance to make a move...... Qin Hao looked at the city guards who began to suffer casualties, and said with a solemn expression: "See the wolf breath and the movements of the city guards clearly." Although you have been in the inner gate for a long time, and have experienced many disputes, you are not as good as them when it comes to killing......"
A tempestuous wolf's claw tore through the armor of one of the city guards and grabbed him in the chest, but the guard, just before he fell, sent a dagger into the eye socket of the tempest, piercing the back of his head. For a time, blood and cerebral plasma spurted.
A city guard was bitten by a stone swallowing beast in the neck, but his arm wrapped around the demon beast in an instant, restricting its movements, so that a later city guard could calmly cut off the head of the stone swallowing beast.
There are many, many similar scenes spreading everywhere.
In terms of the simplicity and decisiveness of the action, and the ruthlessness of the one-hit kill, Qin Hao must admit that everyone in the city is a first-class good player.
More and more blood flowed from the demon beasts and people, gradually dyeing the land outside the city red.
After more than an hour, the earth-shattering sound gradually weakened, and the corpses of demon beasts piled up on the ground were entangled with the corpses of some city guards, like a small mountain, and the blood on the corpse mountain was still flowing down.
The people who were still standing outside the city were gasping for air.
Knock! Knock!
Suddenly there was a sound in the distance, and the ground shook.
All of them had a thought in their hearts that made their hands cold.
Under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, a large group of dense demon beasts, like a spreading poisonous mist, rolled from the end of the horizon.
"How is it possible......" Qin Hao straightened up, pressed his hands on the guardrail of the city wall, and unconsciously clenched it: "Second-order high-level demon beasts, the number is ......"
"More than 300 ......"
In such a remote place, such a large-scale second-order high-level demon beast would appear. Moreover, there were also several second-order peak demon beasts involved in it.
Under the city wall, Commander Ye's face changed greatly: "City guards, everyone who is wolf's breath, retreat to ...... first"
Commander Ye quickly commanded, and the one hundred soldiers sent out quickly withdrew, and the remaining two hundred elites who were on standby in the city poured out of the nest and strangled together with the dense demon beasts.
This time, the fight was even more tragic than Fang Cai.
Blood splattered, blood spurted, staining the earth with blood.
............ After an hour, the city guards lost more than eighty before they suppressed the herd, and at this time, a large herd of earth beasts appeared again in the distance, and from a distance, it was dense and full of fields.
With the breath, you can sense that the number of demon beasts is nearly four hundred...... Qin Hao quickly climbed down the city wall and walked towards the location of Commander Ye, and a guard wanted to stop him, so he directly asked Qin Hao to push it away.
Sixty-five strong alliance warriors followed behind Qin Hao in a neat line.
Seeing this, more than a dozen guards at the door drew their swords and unsheathed them at the same time.
"Commander Ye ......" Qin Hao's tone carried a bit of reprimand: "If you delay any longer, the city guards and wolf breath will be wiped out, and Luoyun City will definitely destroy the city and kill people......"
Commander Ye looked at the city guards who were suffering more and more casualties, and his eyes hesitated.
Three hundred elites, years of accumulation, and the death of one of them made his heart ache.
It's just that this group of sinners can't let him have the slightest trust. He was even more worried that the group of people going out was just dragging their feet.
Commander Ye hesitated, after seeing several more city guards being cut into two pieces by the demon beasts, he finally couldn't help it, and was about to nod, when an eager voice suddenly came from afar.
"What's going on?"
Qin Hao turned his head, only to see a middle-aged man who was fat and sweating profusely, surrounded by a group of people, rushed over from the main road, as soon as he arrived in front of Commander Ye, he said anxiously: "Ye Lun, why did you make such a big move, what happened to the city guards......
A group of soldiers and Commander Ye and the others bowed at the same time.
"City Lord...... Commander Ye hesitated for a moment, then arched his hand and gritted his teeth: "City Guards, the loss is more than a hundred ......"
When the middle-aged man heard this, his face turned a little pale, and he kept wiping his sweat and said, "Let all the people return to me ......."
When Qin Hao heard this, his face changed greatly. The turtle retreated, and then relied on this fragile city wall defense, just to stop the second-order high-level demon beast?
Fighting in a wide area, and relying on the size gap, multiple warriors can besiege a demon beast at the same time, occupy a certain advantage, and retreat back to the city to defend, which is equivalent to putting yourself in a cage.
Not to mention that this cage is still fragile and abnormal, and it can be broken with a single stab!
He glanced at Yellen, hoping that the shrewd-looking leader wouldn't faint at the critical moment.
Unexpectedly, the experienced Commander Ye had a happy face and ordered the more than 100 people who were outside to return. After leaving behind more than a dozen human corpses, the wounded city guards retreated, and the city gates slowly closed.
Qin Hao listened to the gradual roar of the demon beast, and beads of sweat gradually appeared in his palms.
At this time, the chubby city lord couldn't help wiping his sweat, and said to a white-haired, skinny old man behind him: "Mr. Zhao, please turn on the 'Zhenyu Bell' ...... quickly."
Zhenyu Bell!
Qin Hao's ears were sharp, and he heard this term.
Although he didn't know what it was, he was very skeptical, with this so-called Zhenyu Bell, what role could it play?
Hundreds of second-order high-level demon beasts, even if they are steel walls, will have a moment to be washed away.
Under Qin Hao's gaze, the old man slowly walked to the closed wooden city gate, and his dry palm was attached to the middle of the wooden city gate.
His palm slowly flowed out a radiant Xuan Qi.
Above the city gate, a bright light suddenly lit up, and petal-shaped patterns quickly spread on the wooden gate, like a mandala flower blooming to the limit, bewitching and dazzling.
Moreover, these patterns continue to flow from the city gate to the gray city walls on both sides.
In an instant, the dim city wall gradually lit up with a dazzling light, and the mysterious lines covered every position of the bluestone wall.
Then, the entire city lit up in an instant, and a huge bell-shaped light curtain rapidly expanded from the City Lord's Mansion in the center of the city, and in the end, it covered the entire Falling Cloud City.
The golden bell emits a vast breath like the sea, standing still, suppressing the Quartet.
"Third-Order Advanced, Defensive Sealing Array ......"
Qin Hao's eyes were full of surprise.
In this remote place, there could be such a precious kind of sealing array?
The inhabitants of the city, who had gathered in front of the city gates, cheered when they saw this scene. Even the faces of the city guards were also filled with joy.
The old man opened the sealing array, his face was a little tired, he walked up to the city lord, and reported: "City lord, the Zhenyu Bell that Lord Lan Zhan left here back then has been opened, and there will be no problems for the time being......"
The city lord wiped a handful of sweat, gave a few words to Commander Ye, went up to the city wall, and inspected the situation.
After Qin Hao and the others followed, the scene they saw was that one by one the demon beasts collided with the light curtain when they were about thirty zhang away from the city gate.
Bursts of white smoke rose strangely from the monster's body, roaring in pain amid the sizzling sound, turning into a pile of gray powder.
And the remaining demonic power on the demon beast will also be absorbed by the light curtain.
The city lord glanced at the increasingly bright light curtain, showed a smile, and walked towards the wolf breath people under the city wall.
The wolf breath everyone helped defend the city, and since the city lord wanted to shush the cold and ask for warmth, he would pull it in.
In the second half of the night, the city lord and the old man did not retreat, and found a nearby place to stay, so that they could check the situation at a critical moment.
Commander Ye, on the other hand, kept wandering along the city wall, while inspecting the injuries of the city guards.
Qin Hao looked at the Zhenyu Bell that was shining brightly in the city, and gradually frowned.
Lei Gang, who was sitting on the side, said dissatisfiedly: "I thought that I had a chance this time, but this kind of thing came out, it seems that we still have to watch the play to see the final ......."
"Not necessarily......" Qin Hao didn't know why, and suddenly a very dangerous feeling appeared: "I always feel that there seems to be something ......wrong with this Zhenyu Zhongfeng Xuan Array."
"No!" Lei Gang looked disbelieving, frowned and said, "I heard that ten years ago, Lan Zhan passed through this city, and the city lord of this city had thoughtful etiquette. When Lan Zhan left, he spent two days leaving this Sealing Array to help the city defend against ...... when attacked."
Qin Hao was silent, looking at the dense runes on the city wall, he was a little distracted for a while.
Lan Zhan, the grandmaster of the Xuan Array.
In terms of the attainments of the Feng Xuan Array, there are many people who can be called masters, but there are only a few people who can be called grandmasters.
And Lan Zhan is the most shining one of them, like a pearl that shines in the crown, so dazzling that it is difficult to look at directly.
For any formation master, he is a majestic mountain, leaving others only with a back to look up to.
Standing alone in the world, these four words crown on him, and there is no exaggeration.
Qin Hao also knew these things, otherwise with his surname, he would have said this possibility a long time ago. But even if this Zhenyu Zhong is the handiwork of Lan Zhan, the doubts that linger in his heart still can't be brushed away.
He always felt that there was an extremely secret loophole in this Xuan Array, vague, and he could capture something, but in a blink of an eye, he couldn't find out where the problem was.
Lei Li, who was listening to the conversation between the two on the side, stood up, his body as strong as an iron tower, making his footsteps particularly powerful, he sat down in front of Qin Hao, and said: "Brother Lei Gang, this kid is generous and brilliant in the outer gate sealing Xuan Array competition......
Lei Gang was stunned for a moment before he remembered this incident.
Although the level of the Outer Gate Sealing Xuan Array competition is still nothing compared to a grandmaster of Lan Zhan's level. But at least, what he said has some credibility.
"Do you really think there is a problem?" Lei Gang's face became serious, "I don't know......" Qin Hao got up and walked slowly along the city wall: "I'll take a closer look at ......"
This look is another three.
In the three days, the demon beast attacked many times, but the result was that it died and turned into the energy of the defense of Luoyun City.
Falling Cloud City, like a rock standing in the midst of a raging storm, is still standing tall despite the impact of the beast tide. The runes on the city walls, too, have become more and more shining in the past few days.
For three days, Qin Hao never left, and later, he sat directly under a city wall, staring at the city wall for a moment.
The results of three days made him have an inexplicable respect for Lan Zhan, the father of Lan Wei, who he had never met.
The name of the grandmaster is really not fake. Nearly 3,000 runes, and more than 150 formation diagrams, are enough for a formation master to dig out the mysteries of a lifetime, forming the foundation of this Sealing Xuan Array.
Moreover, in this rune, there are many unique designs.
For example, using fifty "transformation" runes to turn the attack into pure energy and increase one's own power is simply a stroke of genius.
This is the reason why the more demon beasts outside the city, the more powerful this Zhenyu Bell becomes.
This Zhenyu Bell alone integrates all the essence knowledge of the Feng Xuan Array, which can be called broad and profound. A formation master can get endless inspiration from this design.
It's just that the suspicion in Qin Hao's heart is getting heavier and heavier.
He recalled the introduction of the Sealing Xuan Array in the weird black stone, and the train of thought seemed to have grasped a key point in an instant.
Then, a noun popped out of my head in an instant.
"Runic Resonance ......"
Qin Hao's heart thumped, and he folded a branch and kept scratching on the ground.
Dense calculations, many lines superimposed together, slowly take shape on the ground.
Qin Hao kept calculating, and the branches were drawing faster and faster, and finally, an hour later, the branch broke.
At this moment, a drop of cold sweat flowed down Qin Hao's cheek and dripped to the ground.
Qin Hao got up suddenly.
He had to go to the city lord, and he couldn't wait.
If that kind of scenario really becomes possible, no one in this Falling Cloud City will be able to survive safely.
