The spirit of prayer was withdrawn from the ancient array, and the energy to maintain the ancient array was quickly exhausted, and the ancient array in the stone hall was naturally completely paralyzed.

Until this moment, whether it was the sealed prayer or the iron human array that was given consciousness by the prayer, including the others present, they all had a new understanding of Lucius's strength.

Originally, in everyone's eyes, Lucius was just a mechanic, and no matter how hard he tried, he would definitely not be able to surpass the founder of the Sanctuary, but seeing Lucius's actions today, everyone present understood that in fact, Lucius had already surpassed the founder.

Lucius himself sighed in his heart, from the three mechanical demons left by his own teacher before, Lucius had already understood that his founder teacher was still alive, and at the same time, he should be trapped somewhere, and there was no way to get out for the time being.

But just as the prayer and array said before, the founder who once fought against the Eternal Kingdom and tried to free the entire plane from spiritual slavery is now corrupted and degenerate, and has abandoned his original dream, and now he only wants to establish his own Eternal God Kingdom.

This qiē made Lucius a little sad, although it seems that the founder has not been able to return now, but Lucius can vaguely feel that the founder will return sooner or later.

When the founder returns, I am afraid that there will be a bloody storm, and I am afraid that the entire plane will be completely subverted, and maybe even the rules of the plane will no longer exist, and the plane will be difficult to preserve, even the current Lucius can hardly imagine what the result will be?

Seeing Lucius' worried look, Caroline avoided the crowd and approached Lucius and whispered, "Are you worried that the Founder will one day come back and destroy everything you have now?"

Lucius turned his head to look at Caroline, smiled wryly and nodded: "Actually, I don't know what my teacher thinks now, but I can feel that his current strength is very terrifying." If he does return, everything will become unpredictable. ”

Caroline stared at the wry smile on Lecius's face, and said very sternly, "Are you afraid, aren't you?

Lucius nodded: "Yes, I'm really scared, I'm afraid that when he comes back, he will destroy everything I have, everything I want to protect." ”

Caroline took two steps forward, unexpectedly hugged Lucius from behind, and buried her face in Lucius's back. He whispered softly to Lucius: "No matter whether you win or lose in the end, I will be by your side, even if you lose a qiē, I will accompany you to the end of the world, or die together." ”

Feeling the gentle breath of Caroline behind him, as well as the firm words, Lucius's heart suddenly relaxed, and he whispered to Caroline behind him: "Okay, let's face a qiē together." ”

The ancient array lost its energy supply. Collecting the patterns was made easy, and Beludi commanded the mechanical warriors to quickly collect the patterns and begin to reassemble and dissolve a large number of them. At the same time, he began to find a way to rebuild the entire stone hall at the bottom of the city.

Because the rest of the matter was simple, Lucius did not linger any longer, and led the people directly back to the surface, and began to prepare for the reconstruction of the city above.

Lucius knew it in his heart. He didn't have much time, and once the Tang Dynasty sent someone, he might face a struggle for control of Songjiang City. So he had to control Songjiang City first.

A completely renovated city, even if he didn't want to tear his face with the Tang Dynasty and hand over the city above to the people sent by the Tang Dynasty to take over, he had enough ability to control Songjiang City behind the scenes, and he would not let the control of Songjiang City fall aside.

Of course, Lucius also sent people back to the court, or wanted to fight for the two saints of the Tang Dynasty, and he didn't want to really have a stalemate with the two saints.

The renovation of the castle was more complicated than the stone hall, and the first thing was to clear the ruined parts of the castle due to the war, and fortunately there were a large number of mechanical warriors in this part of the work.

It was not difficult to clean up, many of the debris of the city was thrown directly into the Tianjiang River, and some reproaches that could continue to be used were cleared out and left.

It can be said that there is no need for Lucius to personally command, the leaders of those mechanical warriors will command very well, and there are also Belutti, Ogufuddin and Mogupatin, it can be said that Lucius is relatively leisurely.

Most of the time, Lucius was studying the drawings of the new city, and occasionally appeared on the construction site himself to reshape some details.

Even sometimes, when he finds that the effect of on-site observation does not reach the original intention set by his drawings, Lecius will make adjustments directly on the spot, although the construction period is very tight, but Lecius is still a guy who strives for perfection and is very demanding on every detail.

Fortunately, the construction was carried out by mechanical soldiers, and as long as they had a sufficient energy supply, they would quickly complete the task assigned by Lucius.

In this case, there is no need to worry about the inconvenience caused by Lucius's temporary change of design, and in many cases, even if it is dismantled and rebuilt, the mechanical warrior can be completed in a very short time.

As a result, the overall construction period was not delayed, and Matsue Castle was quickly rebuilt, and a mechanical castle made of metal on top of the original castle with a large number of mechanical equipment installed inside and outside was quickly built on the Tianjiang River.

When the overall city model was basically completed, everyone followed Lucius on an airship and looked down on the entire mechanical city from above, and they couldn't help but sigh at the majesty of the city.

Especially in the center of the city, there is a towering airship tower, which cooperates with the center of the entire city machinery, making the entire city have a natural domineering spirit.

And the extra mechanical devices in the city, as well as those erected magic cannons, make the city look very hideous, no one will doubt the attack power of such a city, now if it encounters a siege battle, I am afraid that the attacking side will pay a heavy price.

The metal walls of the city as a whole are thick enough to discourage most attackers, and they don't have any interest in attacking at all.

Standing on the airship, Lucius said with some vigour: "Moreover, I'm afraid you don't know, the current city wall can be raised and lowered, if we don't get the approval of the imperial court, it doesn't matter, we can lower all the thousands, and those magic cannons will also be at the bottom of the river." ”

Side said. Lucius pressed the control button, and soon everyone watched as the four walls of the entire Songjiang City, along with the erected magic cannons, quickly sank into the bottom of the river.

Seeing this scene, everyone on the airship was dumbfounded, no one thought that it would be such a result, watching the four sides being emptied, almost without any defense at all, just like Matsue City on a floating island on the river. The crowd really didn't know what to say.

After a long time, Christine couldn't help but smile and said: "Hehe, Lucius, your move is really too bad, if you do this, wouldn't it be for the people sent by the Tang Empire, even if they take over Songjiang City, they will also take over a city that cannot be defended?"

Lucius didn't smile, but said sternly, "It's not a joke. The two sages of the Tang Empire still don't trust me, and now that I have such a powerful force, they will definitely be jealous of me, so they will never let Songjiang City control me. ”

Seeing that Lucius was so strict. Everyone on the airship also understood that what Lucius said was the truth, after all, they were all from foreign lands.

For the East, they are a bunch of outsiders. For the two saints of the Tang Empire, they had a terrible military power, which was a problem that all kings would fear.

Meanwhile. Pavaro directly waved his army back to Chang'an City, first entered the palace to meet the two saints, and directly told the two saints everything he saw in Songjiang City.

And said directly to the Holy Emperor and the Holy Empress: "Holy Emperor Your Majesty, Holy Empress Niangniang, that Lucius is from the West after all, and the troops he has in his hands now are almost enough to break through the entire Tang Dynasty, and the minister feels that Songjiang City should not be given to him, and the Second Sage can let others take over Songjiang City, so as to test Nalusius." ”

The Holy Emperor and the Holy Empress were also shocked, and they never thought that Lucius would actually have such a terrifying military power.

In fact, they had already received news through Guò other channels before Pavaro returned, and they had begun to think about how to deal with Lucius.

It's just that before Pavaro came back, the two saints hadn't thought about taking Matsue City away from Lucius, they were just thinking about how to restrain Lucius's strength, and Pavaro now gave them a solution to the problem.

As Pavaro said, it only takes one person to take over Matsue Castle to test Lucius's thoughts.

If Lu Xius has a heart of disobedience, then he can use the power of the academy, and let the three sects and even the immortal realm and the Buddha Kingdom cooperate to solve the Lu Xiusi who occupies Songjiang City first.

Now that the war with Lucius has just ended, the Immortal Realm and the Buddha Kingdom have just been frustrated, and it is difficult for their vitality in the East to fully recover in a short period of time, in this case, if the two saints take the initiative to cooperate with them, they are also confident that they and the master can control the situation.

The Holy Emperor lowered his head and thought for a moment, then muttered, "Pavaro, who do you think should be sent to take over Songjiang City now? ”

As soon as Pavaro heard the Holy Emperor say this, he immediately understood that the Holy Emperor had approved of his idea, and the Holy Emperor must have begun to be afraid of Lucius, and he knew that his plan against Lucius had been successful, and the next step was to gradually disintegrate and restrain Lucius's strength.

However, Pavaro did not immediately recommend himself, because he knew very well that in the eyes of the Second Sage, he was actually a person from the Western Regions, and he could not be regarded as a real Tang person.

And he can't help but put forward a candidate, if that is the case, it will be tantamount to making the second saint aware of his thoughts, he must want the second saint to recommend a suitable candidate, so as to dispel the second saint's suspicion of his motives, and will make the second saint trust himself more.

This is the most suitable candidate, and Pavaro has already thought about it: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, in fact, I think it should be the most suitable to let the disciples of the academy master take over." ”

Originally, the Holy Emperor and the Holy Empress thought that Pavaro should recommend himself, but they didn't expect him to directly recommend the disciples of the academy, and the Holy Empress was stunned for a moment and asked, "The Master has thirteen disciples, who do you think is the most suitable to go?"

Pavaro knew that the Holy Queen would ask such a question, and said unhurriedly: "The minister thinks that the most suitable person in the academy should be the fourth disciple Shen Jiuru. ”

"What? You, you actually recommend that you have no time to go? Why is this really true?" The Holy Emperor and the Holy Empress were both a little surprised, and once again they didn't expect that Pavaro would actually recommend Shen Jiuru, the fourth disciple of the academy, to know that Shen Jiuru was still a woman.

Pavaro smiled confidently and said, "Your Majesty and Niangniang may think that Shen Jiuru is a woman, how can she be in this great position, but I know that Shen Jiuru was actually a female general who guarded the border at the beginning, and it is said that she is the last generation of Du Liniang's master. ”

The Holy Emperor and the Holy Empress were stunned when they heard this, in fact, they all knew Shen Jiuru's ability, especially the Holy Empress knew Shen Jiuru very well, because Shen Jiuru used to be the guard beside the Holy Queen.

Shen Jiuru's ability is beyond doubt, Shen Jiuru was indeed a general who was a general, and had guarded the Snow Old City outside the Northern Demon Ice Plain for more than ten years, and the Demon Army did not dare to approach the Snow Old City for hundreds of miles, which shows the strength of defending the city, and it can also reflect her own ability.

And before entering the academy, just like Pavaro said, Shen Jiuru was indeed a teacher with Du Liniang, and she was also the last generation of disciples of her original master after Du Liniang left the East.

Later, because Shen Jiuru was enlightened by her master, she stayed away from her military career, and when she entered the academy, she usually dressed up as a woman, and many people had forgotten her former identity.

Hearing Pavaro's recommendation, the second saint also remembered Shen Jiuru, and after thinking, the second saint found that Shen Jiuru was indeed the best candidate, and asked Shen Jiuru to take over Songjiang City, firstly, because she had the support of the academy master behind her, and secondly, she and Du Liniang had the same friendship.

In fact, the most important thing is that Shen Jiuru definitely has that ability, and his appearance can be regarded as the best choice for the two saints, I am afraid it will be difficult to find a more suitable person than Shen Jiuru.

The Holy Emperor glanced at the Holy Empress and whispered to the Holy Empress, "Then you can go to the academy and let Shen Jiuru come forward, and I will personally tell the master about this." ”

Neither the Holy Emperor nor the Holy Empress saw it at this time, and a trace of pride flashed in Pavaro's eyes, and the two saints didn't notice it, and they didn't know that they had actually fallen into Pavaro's trap.

The reason why Pavaro recommended Shen Jiuru was because Shen Jiuru was the most suitable person now, and secondly, because he knew that Shen Jiuru was the most trusted person of the Holy Queen.

The most important thing is that if Shen Jiuru comes forward, he will divert the contradictions in Songjiang City from his Pavaro, let the two sides of the contradiction become Lucius and the academy, and force Lucius and the academy and even the entire Tang Empire to turn against him, so that he, the king of hearts, can profit from it.
