Chapter 125 ■ Fire and rain from the sky
That night.
The city lord of Qiankun City entertained Gao Daquan in his mansion, as well as Gai Yong.
In the continuous conversation, Gao Daquan knew that the city lord's name was Wu Yunzhao.
He is the heir of the forty-eighth generation of the city lord in Qiankun City.
There is no emperor here, and the position of the city lord is the largest, and it is also the son who inherits his father's business.
Qiankun City has more than 1.2 million people, which is an extremely large city, but there are only more than 10,000 soldiers.
Because most of the people are ordinary people who are powerless, if they want to join the army, they must awaken their divine power in a temple in Qiankun City.
After awakening the divine power, people have an additional title, and people usually call them warriors, and it is precisely because they become warriors that they can serve the army.
Divine power is not innate, it can only be obtained through the Awakening Ritual, which is the only way to obtain divine power.
Those who can't wake up can only be civilians for the rest of their lives.
And those martial artists who awaken their divine power often have very strong power, and their strength is not a problem.
This is also the reason why when Gao Daquan was first arrested, he felt that those soldiers were so strong.
Castle Lord's Mansion, guest rooms.
"Brother Gao, now that we are finally free, what are your plans for the future?" asked Gai Yong lying on the bed with his head pillowed to Gao Daquan on the other side.
"I don't have any plans, I just want to get out of here as soon as possible. "Gao Daquan is very unaccustomed to coming to such a place, there is no Internet, no water and electricity.
"Go out, where do you want to go? Once you get out of Qiankun City, within a hundred miles, there are all fierce beasts, and there are so many of them that your jaw drops. Gai Yong's expression looked a little surprised.
"Brother Gai, you misunderstood what I meant, in fact, I am not from your world, I want to go back to my previous world. Gao Daquan shook his head and said.
"Oh, I remembered when you said that. Gai Yong hurriedly turned over and sat up, as if remembering something, "I once heard a man say that there is a door to another unknown world in the temple in our Qiankun City. ”
"Well, there is such a thing? It seems that if I have the chance, I must try it, maybe the door will send me back. Gao Daquan's eyes lit up with a glimmer of hope.
"However, there seems to be one more condition for opening that door...... Say yes...... You have to collect a hundred rhinoceros beast's tentacles, and 20,000 taels of gold to succeed. Gai Yong said as he recalled.
"What kind of monster is that?" Judging by the name, Gao Daquan knew that it must be a creature.
"The rhinoceros beast has a hard shell like a turtle on its back, its limbs are developed and strong, and a one-meter-long tentacle grows in front of its head. Gai Yong explained.
"Okay! In that case, I plan to go out of the city at dawn tomorrow to hunt the beast!" Gao Daquan immediately made up his mind. As for the 20,000 taels of gold, it is not a problem at all, because there is still a large lump of gold ore in his space ring, which must be enough.
"What?? Gai Yong was taken aback by Gao Daquan's thought.
"I've decided, okay, let's go to sleep!" Gao Daquan fell on the bed all of a sudden, and fell asleep as soon as the quilt was covered.
Gai Yong shook his head helplessly, and had to sigh deeply.
The next day.
Early in the morning, Gao Daquan got up.
It was about six o'clock.
Gao Daquan was doing a morning jog on the streets of Qiankun City, thinking that he would go out of the city to find the traces of the rhinoceros beast after finishing the exercise.
"Urgent report ahead...... Quickly dodge the ......," a fast horse galloped from the direction of the city gate.
Gao Daquan saw the knight's extremely frightened expression.
Looks like something big must have gone wrong.
Gao Daquan hurriedly ran towards the City Lord's Mansion, wanting to know what was going on.
When they came to the gate of the Castle Lord's Mansion.
City Lord Wu Yunzhao had already begun to gather a group of generals with his hands down and walked out of the mansion gate, only to see each of them with a solemn expression on their faces.
Gao Daquan didn't expect Wu Yunzhao to assemble his subordinates so quickly, it seems that things must be quite tricky, and the time is very tight.
"Daquan, at the moment, Qiankun City has encountered a little crisis, so you should stay in the mansion for the time being. After Wu Yunzhao finished speaking, he prepared to leave.
"My lord, what happened?" Gao Daquan wanted to ask.
"The outpost eighty miles outside the city got the news that a large number of fierce beasts were attacking Qiankun City, so I had to lead my soldiers to resist. Wu Yunzhao turned around and explained.
"Fierce beasts, my lord, please let me go with you!" Gao Daquan didn't expect that the fierce beasts would also gather to attack the city, and it seemed that he didn't need to go out of the city anymore, so he simply went with Wu Yunzhao and them to have a look.
"Well, you'll have to be safe. ”
So Gao Daquan followed behind everyone.
Soon the group climbed the city tower, and Gao Daquan saw groups of fierce beasts, attacking towards Qiankun City!
Judging from the number, it is dense, and I don't know how many there are.
Gradually, the distance narrowed a lot, and all kinds of beasts were strange and strange, some the size of a buffalo, some the size of a car.
Gao Daquan even saw a large number of rhinoceros beasts mixed in with the herd of beasts.
At this time, a large number of soldiers were already waiting on the city wall, and the rolling stones and sassalwoods were all ready.
However, two rows of soldiers stand out.
The soldiers in the front row were holding a bulging cowhide bag in their hands, and they didn't know what was inside
The soldiers in the back row are holding longbows with rockets in their hands, ready for battle at any time.
The beasts were getting closer and closer, and the huge foot applause was like the muffled thunder in the sky, and it was like the drums of the beasts' attack!
The long tentacles and fangs are like a long knife of death, unstoppable!
The furious beasts all had a hard shell on their bodies, like armored beasts from the eternal purgatory, unstoppable!
"Ready to throw!" When all the beasts were within range of three hundred meters, all the soldiers were ready to move.
The soldiers are all warriors with infinite strength, and they are naturally much larger than the arm strength of ordinary people.
"Whew~"
Thousands of cowhide bags were vigorously thrown into the air by the soldiers, flying towards the fierce beasts three hundred meters away!
"Whoosh~"
The archers in the back row did not stop and shot the rockets in their hands!
I saw that the cowhide bag had been pierced by the rocket before it landed!
"Boom"!
The liquid in the cowhide bag flowed out and was immediately ignited by the rocket, and the inside was full of fire oil.
At this time, Gao Daquan saw an extremely spectacular scene.
Rain of fire from above!
Burn the beast!
