From A Stronghold NPC To The Final BOSS - Chapter 324
324 Chapter 324-asking people
Tai Mountain City.
Compared to yesterday, the current city was already a lot more desolate.
The city Lord, ju Dongyi, had died in battle.
The aristocratic families in the city had also been completely uprooted, and almost everything had been looted.
The only ones who did not suffer any losses were the people in the city.
However …
It wasn’t as if they didn’t suffer any losses.
The chaotic battle at night.
…..
The shockwaves from a battle between experts could easily destroy everything.
Many innocent people lost their lives in the aftermath.
But this was something that could not be avoided.
Other than that.
More than half of tai Mountain City was still well preserved.
On the city wall.
Qin shujian could still see the inextinguishable traces left behind by the brutal battle around him.
Corpses could be refreshed.
The blood could also disappear.
However, the traces left behind by the battle could not be erased.
Just by looking at the surrounding traces, he knew what had happened here.
“Tai Mountain City only destroyed the great clans and the resistance of the Imperial court. They didn’t do anything to the people, and most of the buildings in the city are well preserved. He believes that he will be able to take back tai Mountain City sooner or later, so he doesn’t want to destroy his own things!”
Su Mingyang, who was standing on the side, stood on the city wall and looked down. His eyes were also a little cold.
“He’s too overconfident!”
“To be able to Annex 11 cities overnight, the strength that Gu Changqing used is definitely not simple. If I’m not wrong, there should be a great formation protecting tai Mountain City, but it can be seen from the broken formation text.
The protective array of tai Mountain City was broken by someone!”
Qin shujian’s eyes looked up at the sky above the city. It should have been empty.
But in his eyes …
However, he could still see some broken runes.
Inscribing a formation in the air!
To be able to set up a city’s great array, one had to at least be at the level of an array master.
Judging from the broken runes that had yet to completely dissipate …
The person who set up the formation should not have reached the level of a Grandmaster.
But this was normal.
After all, before Marquis Qian Shan’s rebellion, tai Mountain City was just an ordinary city. It was impossible to send an array master to set up an array in the city.
Basically, it was enough for a formation master to make a move.
However …
Even a formation set up by a formation master was not ordinary.
Even a divine martial realm Grand cultivator would find it difficult to break through.
But from the broken formation …
However, Qin shujian felt a violent power.
This was the innate sensitivity of a Grandmaster.
It allowed him to deduce what had happened when the formation was intact from the tiny traces left behind by the broken formation.
When su Mingyang heard this, he said in a deep voice, “”Sect leader Qin’s meaning is that a heaven tier elite made a move and broke the formation, which led to the death of Taishan City?”
whether or not it was a great celestial realm cultivator who made a move is still up for discussion. However … Qin shujian shook his head and said, “”Gu Changqing must have used a lot of power to destroy eleven cities so quickly.
Moreover, rather than guessing, we might as well ask someone. Perhaps it’ll be easier to get there.”
“Ask someone?”
Su Mingyang was stunned at first, but he quickly reacted, “”Are you talking about the Outlanders, sect leader Qin?”
the Inhumans don’t die, and they are everywhere. When the city is broken, ordinary people won’t be able to escape, but for the Inhumans, it is the opposite. As long as we issue a mission, there should be Inhumans who will give us an answer.
As Qin shujian spoke, he had already turned around and descended the city wall.
It was easy to find Inhumans.
The streets were filled with them.
According to his words, su Mingyang went directly back to the city Lord’s mansion, and then let someone as the acting city Lord to directly issue a bounty mission.
It didn’t take long.
Some players came to submit their mission.
black robe and hood? I can’t see his face? ” In the city Lord’s mansion, the crowd looked at each other and saw the seriousness in each other’s eyes.
They weren’t sure of the other party’s identity.
But to destroy the entire protective formation of tai Mountain City on his own was something that even a peak divine martial realm expert would find difficult to accomplish.
to be able to break the city’s defender array so easily, he must be at least a half step to the celestial realm, or even a great cultivator of the celestial realm, ” Wu tai said in a deep voice. the rebels don’t have such a strong master except for Gu Changqing.
At this point.
He looked at the crowd, and a cold light appeared in his eyes.”If I’m not wrong, it should be the force behind Gu Changqing.”
“General Wu, are you talking about the demon race!”
A Deputy general asked.
It was no secret that Gu Changqing was colluding with the demon race.
Or rather …
These things had already been publicized.
However, due to the lack of evidence, it did not cause much of a stir.
But for the people of the Imperial court, they were all pretty sure that the demon race was behind Gu Changqing.
Gu Changqing didn’t have such a strong master under him.
What about the demon race?
As a once-Overlord force, the demon race’s Foundation was still strong even though they were now hiding in the endless Mountains.
It could even be said.
This was because the other party had been in hiding for so many years. No one knew exactly how much strength he had accumulated.
But one thing was for sure.
The strength of the demon race.
He definitely couldn’t be underestimated.
Even Qin shujian and su Mingyang’s eyes flickered when they heard the mention of the demon race.
The former was a formation path Grandmaster, and was the most advantageous thing to rely on for this trip.
Although the latter did not have an official position, he was a consecrator of Marquis northcloud’s residence and could barely replace Marquis northcloud’s face.
&Nbsp; so,
Now that there was a meeting in the city Lord’s mansion, both of them were qualified to participate.
“He’s undoubtedly a demon!” Wu tai looked solemn and said coldly, “”Instead of staying in the endless Mountains, these demon remnants came out and tried to encroach on the territory of the great Zhao.
…..
If there’s a chance, I’ll lead my Army into the endless Mountains and sweep away all these damn things.
As for Gu Changqing’s betrayal as an official of the great Zhao, he is disloyal. As a human, he colludes with the demons, which is unjust. Such disloyal and unjust people should be exterminated!”
Upon hearing this.
The others were all silent.
After all, he wanted to satisfy his mouth addiction and couldn’t really add to the crowd.
Yan caizhe was not around.
In the Tai Mountain City Army, Wu tai had the highest status.
No one would have nothing better to do than to find trouble for themselves.
Moreover …
There was no rule that it was a crime to talk too much.
As for Wu Tai’s words.
They were just casually listening and did not take it seriously.
After all …
The endless Mountains was the demon race’s base camp. They couldn’t be killed just because they wanted to. If they really angered the demon race, not to mention millions of troops, even if the Army was dozens of times larger, they wouldn’t be able to cause any trouble.
Otherwise …
It was impossible that the Imperial court had not made a move against the demi-humans in the past few years.
It was because …
The endless Mountains were too big!
Someone had once guessed.
The vastness of the endless Mountains might be comparable to the hundreds of millions of miles of the great Zhao.
Of course.
Many people scoffed at this rumor. In their opinion, no place could compare to the vastness of the great Zhao.
The endless Mountains were just a little more mysterious.
However, in terms of territory, it was definitely not as vast as the great Zhao.
Otherwise …
For thousands of years, why had the monster race always wanted to take back their former territory?
As for strength, that was even more obvious.
One side ruled over billions of territories.
One side was hiding like a turtle.
They could tell who was stronger and who was weaker.
Soon after.
The anger on Wu Tai’s face subsided a lot. He looked at the others and said in a deep voice, “”Now that the rebels have retreated from tai Mountain City, what are your thoughts?”
“The rebels must have retreated because they know that our Army is coming. They know that they can’t rely on tai Mountain City to block our Army’s attack, which is why they retreated. I suggest that we rest for a night in tai Mountain City.
Now that ju Dongyi has died, the people of tai Mountain City are also in a state of panic. We can use this opportunity to calm them down and then make our next plan against the rebels.” Someone suggested after Wu tai finished.
This was also the safest way at the moment.
They relied on tai Mountain City to rest and reorganize.
Then, they would use the chance to rest and stabilize the people of tai Mountain City. The Army would then use tai Mountain City as a base to replenish their supplies and attack the rebels.
&Nbsp; so,
After this person spoke, no one in the main hall objected.
After a long time.
Wu tai nodded and said,”it’s a good idea, but-”
He paused for a moment and turned his head to look at Qin shujian, who was sitting at the side. He said in a deep voice, ” now that the protective array of tai Mountain City is broken, I hope Grandmaster Qin can repair it to prevent other situations from happening.
“No problem, just leave this matter to me.” Qin shujian nodded and said.
They set up a city-protecting formation.
To him, it was not a simple matter.
After all, in terms of area, it was vast.
Taishan City was much larger than the previous Yuan sect.
If he hadn’t advanced to the spiritual God stage, he might not have been able to set up such a large array.
Or rather …
He couldn’t do it in a short time.
After all, the larger the array, the more time it would take, and the less spiritual will it would consume.
The opposite was true.
In order to set up a formation that covered the entire city in a short time, the consumption was not small at all.
However …
When he had raised his spiritual God to 260 feet, Qin shujian felt that he would not be weaker than some experts who had just entered the divine martial realm if he were to compare the strength of his divine will alone. Therefore, he was very confident that he could set up a formation that could take down an entire city.
After getting Qin shujian’s approval …
Wu Tai then looked at the others and ordered, ” from today onwards, the entire city will be under martial law. In addition, send sentries outside the city to stand guard. A team of people will be required to station every five miles. After that, a signal will be sent out every half an hour to ensure that there are no abnormal situations.
“Could it be that Lord Wu is afraid that the rebels will come again?”
it’s better to be safe than sorry. No one said that the rebels won’t come back after we abandon the city. The military is not a game. It’s important that there’s no such thing as too much deception in war. Just do as I say.
Wu tai looked at the person who spoke and said in an indifferent tone.
That person heard this.
His heart couldn’t help but feel cold.
Then, he bowed and accepted the order with the others, “”We will follow your orders!”
The only one who didn’t move.
Qin shujian and su Mingyang were the only two left.
