Chapter 85: The Demon Cult Succeeds
"These guys came at a good time."
Fang Hong snorted coldly and said.
But he wasn't surprised, after all, these days, both sides have been sending people to watch here.
"Let's go and see first."
Li Yu turned his head and dismounted, striding into the Baihua Building.
"Two adults, I just want to ask you for instructions on what to do next."
There was a group of people inside who were discussing something, and when they noticed Li Yu and the others coming in, they hurriedly turned around.
"What the hell is going on, there are multiple fires in the neighborhood over here?"
The sudden fire was the reason why the two hundred households investigating the scene invited Li Yu and others to come over early in the morning.
"Yes, although it was quickly extinguished, we investigated and found that it was not arson, and there was even a place that was burned out of thin air......
We suspect that those Demon Cultists have already found the lantern fire they want in the Hundred Flowers Tower, and after the lantern fire fell into it eighteen years ago, there was a similar phenomenon of a fire in the vicinity. ”
Hearing this, Li Yu and the others, as well as Wu Xuan and others from the Wai Qi Party, all changed their faces greatly.
"The phenomenon that is clearly recorded in the secret file ......"
"That's really eight or nine!"
The two hundred households said: "Actually, it has now been confirmed that those demon cultists were eyeing here before the fox bride case, but there has been no progress, and it is only recently that they have begun to gain something. ”
Li Yu nodded, he had recently figured out that when he fought with the three great protectors of the Demon Sect, the exploration progress of the Demon Sect had just made a breakthrough.
"Mourner" Zhang Ping actually came out of it to rescue Hu Meier, and it is very likely that his subsequent destination is not to return to his hometown in vacuum, but to the treacherous domain of Baihualou.
Their real purpose should be to release the lantern fire from the Hundred Flowers Tower's treacherous domain and use it to destroy the Holy Capital!
If they succeed in their conspiracy, all the rudders in the world will respond one after another, and a rebellion will be inevitable.
During this time, they blocked the enemy's way out, and there was no chance of escape, but it was just a natural obstacle in the Strange Domain, which blocked them, and they were stunned to investigate and explore for so many days, and there was no progress at all.
On the other hand, the enemy, after a period of exploration, is afraid that he is about to activate the lantern fire, and even control it.
After listening to everyone's discussion, Li Yu still agreed with this conclusion.
The Gu Heart Demon Sect has even done such a thing as settling down in the Secret Domain, and it is not surprising that it will take ten days and half a month to explore inside.
It's just hateful, the strength of the imperial court in this area is indeed too weak.
No, no, maybe not.
"It's impossible that there is really no means to break through the treacherous domain, the imperial court sits on the world, and there are so many treasures and treasures, I don't believe there will be none!"
Li Yu secretly hated and slammed his fist on the table.
Everyone listened, remained silent, and did not participate in the topic.
Because they all understand that the treasures related to the Trick Domain, the abilities are somewhat forbidden, and they are not popularized to the middle and lower levels in order to ensure the safety of the upper layers.
If there really is such a means, people can master the subterfuge realm, or break the subterfuge domain in an instant......
Wouldn't that also mean that he could use this means to break into the palace and treat Ouchi's guards as if they were nothing?
The previous years were all peaceful and prosperous, and the Demon Sect had been dormant for so many years without committing any more trouble, and the authority and ability that had been issued had already been cut off.
This is called rabbit dead dog cooking, and the bird is hidden in the bow.
It's very simple, and it's also very helpless to the rules of the world.
In silence, Fang Hong coughed dryly, came out and said: "The imperial court is also doing this, there are definitely ways to deal with the trickery, but we must give priority to ensuring the safety of important places."
For example, the demon cultists are attacking the west, but they don't really care about this Baihualou Domain, but they use the case to involve the Demon Suppression Division and suddenly attack the Imperial City or the town of Beiya, so what should I do?
The means of breaking through the barrier in an instant and invading the subterfuge domain are used to protect those places, and many places must be configured, so unless there is a lot of surplus, it will be popularized and used flexibly. ”
What he didn't mention was that maybe after this incident, the imperial court would learn from the lessons and appropriately allocate some powerful means to the Demon Suppression Division, but before the real accident, who would dare to open this gap, and who would be able to open this gap?
As for the means of personal concealment......
It would be even more unlikely to behave at such a time.
The two general flags have such a means of registering, officially recognized, slow is a little slower, it's not that you can't work, and no matter how fast and capable you are, others have to suspect you first, keep an eye on you, and watch you as a thief, instead of thinking that you have much value and contribution.
In the end, more is better than less.
At this moment, there was a sudden exclamation outside.
"It's water, it's water!"
Again?
Everyone's faces changed suddenly, and they didn't care about saying anything more, so they hurriedly went out to check.
But not far away, a building was full of smoke, and the people were panicked and rushed to tell each other.
Many people rushed to the nearby fire source to fetch water to fight the fire, but the fire rose so quickly that it only took a few moments to burn most of the building.
"It's spreading much faster than before!"
A hundred households chief official had a solemn face.
As soon as the words ended, another nearby building caught fire, shouting everywhere and panicking.
Then there was the Baihua Building, which was seized.
Everyone couldn't help but look shocked.
At the moment, he didn't care about saying anything more, and hurriedly sent someone to put out the fire.
At the same time, Li Yu also ordered: "The aliens should strengthen their vigilance, if those previous guesses are not wrong, those masters of the Demon Sect will soon break out!" ”
Sure enough, not long after, someone found the enemy who suddenly appeared in another side courtyard of Baihualou, and hurriedly sent a signal to urgently ask for help.
Li Yu and the others went around to the back and found that a whole group of garrisons had been killed, and the other two groups had just arrived and were still holding on, but they also fell into disadvantage.
"Bold thief, don't you want to be caught?"
The chief officer of the Hundred Households was stunned and shouted.
Li Yu observed his opponent and found that in addition to the "prostitute" Hu Meier and the "mourner" Zhang Ping who had seen before, there were two other alien masters who seemed to have similar status and belonged to the Great Protector.
One of them was unkempt, ragged, carrying a bamboo cane and a broken bowl, dressed like a beggar.
The other is carrying a lantern, holding a gong, and a short stick in his right hand, making the appearance of a watchman.
"'Beggar' Cai Shengren, is there another one who is ...... 'beating the watchman'?
They really harnessed the lantern fire! ”
At this time, Li Yu had already begun to understand the rules of the title of the Great Protector of the Demon Sect, and immediately understood that a new enemy with unclear information had appeared.
The lantern in the watchman's hand was particularly interesting because it was emitting a faint green light, and the flame inside burned quietly, but it gave the terrible feeling that it was about to burn everything.
