Lei was the third coalition general to lead his army into the city of God. Bobcat, who rushed fastest, was the first, and the honor of being the second to enter the city was given to Jerry. Lei slowly led his 32,000 troops.
Thousands of cavalry entered the divine city. The two-hundred-foot-high city wall seemed to be a single piece, dark and seemingly extremely solid.
Lomat marveled: "It is said that the walls of the Divine City were built with iron liquid to cast gaps. It seems to be true. Sir, you can see that some places are clearly made of metal."
Lei looked in the direction pointed by Lomart, nodded in surprise, and whispered: "How much money and manpower does it take to complete such a huge project? It's so great."
Crete came up and said with a look of disbelief: "Otherwise, how could it be the largest city on the mainland that the seven major powers on the mainland spent decades building together? This city wall is nothing more than a city wall. The front faces
The city wall of the Wasteland of Dead Souls is said to be even more spectacular. Over hundreds of thousands of years, the bones of countless sinners have been piled up below."
Walking in the long, dimly lit city wall corridor, an inexplicable chill penetrated everyone's body. It seemed that an invisible undead spirit was lingering in everyone's ears, whispering something. Lei
He could even feel a bit of cold air blowing into the back of his neck. Mountain people are always particularly sensitive to ghosts and undead. Lei turned his head around in fear, only to see a pale-faced Kalin following closely behind him.
, two beautiful eyes flickering, looking around nervously.
Seeing Lei turn around, a few words popped out from Carlin's bloodless lips: "Here, there are such terrible magic fluctuations and such powerful spiritual energy. It is simply not a place for people to stay."
At this moment, Lei didn't have the intention to laugh at Carlin. He just stared blankly at the deeper and deeper corridor in front of him, wondering whether the city wall was boundless. Behind him, the entrance they entered had shrunk to the size of a human eyeball.
Countless cavalrymen of about the same size were pouring in, but no light could be seen in front of them.
After walking forward for a while, the corridor actually extended underground, and it was obvious that everyone was starting to go downhill. Luomat grabbed Lei's arm nervously, and asked with a little fear: "Sir, is this the 'City of Gods'?
Is it underground?"
Bursts of wind blew from the front, bringing bone-chilling chills and weird whistling sounds. The front was like a ghost. Except for the dim light emitted by the magic crystals dotted on the walls of the corridor, they could not see at all.
There was no light, and he couldn't even see clearly the scene three feet away from him. Karin's voice came faintly: "This is probably the defense measure of the 'God City'..."
After walking about a dozen miles, that is, thousands of feet deep underground, the tunnel finally began to extend upwards. Lei laughed a little nervously: "Haha, haha, they don't need to be so careful, right? This is facing us.
Why are they so careful about the direction of the mainland? No one will attack the 'Sacred City' from here." Lei's laughter suddenly rang out in the absolutely silent corridor, startling everyone. But what happened?
In an instant, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The atmosphere in this corridor was so dead, and someone finally broke the dead silence.
A faint voice suddenly came from far in front: "It's not to defend you, but to prevent the enemy from conquering the first city wall. This is a preparation for trapping their elite warriors. Imagine them entering this road."
Those who explore the passage must be their best warriors, right? If the entire corridor suddenly collapses..."
Even people as scheming as Carlin and Lomart broke out in a cold sweat when they heard this. Who came up with this plan to kill everyone? It's really too cruel. What if the criminals conquer the city wall in front of them?
, they will definitely head towards the mainland. It is impossible for them to climb such a long city wall. As is human nature, they will send a large number of the strongest warriors into the corridor to explore the way. At that time...
As for the generals like Lei and Crete, their hair stood on end. Such a huge city wall was just to deceive people, and they were really using any means.
After walking forward for a while, they saw the person who was speaking, an old man wearing a strange purple robe who looked to be at least two hundred and fifty years old, not three hundred years old, floating there above the ground. Karin was flying very fast, almost
He climbed off the horse as if he had been thrown, and moved forward respectfully, using etiquette that was only slightly lower than the etiquette in the ceremony to worship the gods. He knelt down in front of the old man and said respectfully: "Leike."
Mentor, are you...are you still alive? My master is the current high priest Aure; Shakra, he came here to pay homage to you two hundred years ago."
Two green lights burst out of the old man's eyes, and he nodded slowly and said, "Well, are you Aure's disciple? He should still be alive, right? The lives of our mages are always very long.
..Okay, I just want to see the people in the Smart Empire, and there is nothing else to do now... If you have time, come to the Magic Tower to see me, and I can teach you something. Although your magic power
He's incredibly weak, but he still looks smart."
There was a flash of white light and Lake disappeared.
Karin and the others stammered and shouted: "Space shifting, humans, is it really possible for humans to master this kind of magic? In his opinion, my magic power is too weak to be true?"
The people of the Smart Empire had faces full of surprise and glory, as if their life had not been in vain after seeing Lake.
Lei coldly said: "It's not like you have such strong magic, why are you happy? You won't be able to reach the heights of others in this life, right? Otherwise, the Vante Empire will be full of glorious knights running around.
"After saying that, Lei spurred his horse and ran out at a trot with a look of disdain on his face.
The people from the Smart Empire looked depressed, looking angrily at Lei's back disappearing into the darkness, but they could no longer speak. Thinking about their performance just now, it seemed that they were indeed a bit unbearable. And far behind
There seemed to be bursts of snickering in the corridor, but they didn't know which country's team it came from, so Carlin and the others had no choice but to do anything.
After continuing for more than ten miles, Lei and the others finally came out of the ground and saw the real divine city. A nearly identical two-story white stone building with yards at the front and back extended forward along the straight valley, and the yard was clean
It is very neat, because the peaks on both sides block the sunlight most of the time, so there are no weak ornamental flowers. There are many small shrubs with strong vitality planted in the courtyard and along the road, which look green.
There are forty vertical roads in the valley, and there are countless horizontal roads. The buildings in the valley are divided into neat checkerboard-shaped communities, which look very orderly. There are not many pedestrians on the road.
There were a lot of ordinary people who went up, and they were looking at Lei and his companions with curious eyes.
A group of knights in black armor standing at the entrance of the corridor silently waved to Lei and others to take people over, and then led them towards the depths of the valley. After walking for more than thirty miles, they finally saw
There are large areas of tents ahead, it seems that this is where the military camp is located.
A black-armored knight leading the team said in a deep voice: "This is your nearest station. You can roam around the city as you like, but there is no entertainment here. I guess you won't find anything of interest. There is no wine here.
There are no women to have fun with, and there are no luxuries, so my personal suggestion is that you stay in the camp and train hard, maybe you can increase your chances of surviving in future battles."
Another black-armored knight saluted Lei and said: "Master Legion, this is your camp. Fifteen miles ahead is the defensive wall of the 'God City'. Now the Knights of Glory and the Swordsmen of Light are defending it.
, if necessary, someone will inform you how to cooperate."
Lei nodded: "I understand, then, thank you guys, I didn't know you were..."
The first knight to speak bowed slightly: "We are subordinates of the Chaos Knights. Our ancestors come from the Dark Empire. If nothing happens, we will return to the team. Staff from the City Citizens' Congress will come to make arrangements for you later.
If you have any questions about supplies such as food, grass, etc., please contact them at that time.”
Lei nodded subconsciously, and several black-armored knights quickly walked towards the corridor. Presumably they wanted to see what the Dark Empire's army looked like. After all, their ancestors were, as they said,
Same, from the Dark Empire.
Lei looked at the large dome tent in front of him and couldn't help but laugh: "The conditions here are good, the ground is very flat gravel, and the tent mats look very thick, so it must be comfortable to sleep on.
Ask the brothers to choose tents according to their own establishment. Each officer must sleep in a tent where he can control his subordinates at any time. Do you understand?" The soldiers immediately took action. Under the leadership of their respective officers, every twenty people
The team selected a tent and the war horses were placed in a nearby stable.
Lomart secretly gestured a thumbs up beside him, indicating that Lei was right, and Lei smiled slightly. After fighting for so long, and seeing Jerry and the others giving orders for so long, he had learned something.
Things for marching and camping.
From a distance, Jerry came over with a few bodyguard knights, shouting loudly: "Lei, are you interested in seeing the walls of the 'City of Gods'? Ha, those things like food and grass are just...
Let your Crete adjutant be ready... Crete, you are so lucky. Following Lei, your promotion has been almost completed. You are now the deputy commander of the army. When you return to the imperial capital, you want to treat me.
You have to take care of those chores too."
Crete, who had no sense of superiority and inferiority at all, made a vulgar gesture towards Jerry. Jerry walked over with a smile and pulled Lei towards the city wall in front of him. A group of curious generals also left the matter to him.
He picked up his adjutant and followed them. Look at the military camps of other countries near and far, isn't it? All the officers are walking in that direction.
Lei followed Jerry for a few steps and asked in a low voice: "It's strange, it doesn't seem to be suitable for growing food here, but why is there no shortage of food and grass here? Also, it seems that everyone in our village knows that if a small area
People have been intermarrying for too long, and babies with deformities will be born. How many people are there in total here?"
Jerry quickly looked around, and then explained to Lei in a low voice: "Every five hundred years, a group of young women will be sent here. You don't need me to explain what they are used for, right? They are selected by various countries.
It is specially prepared for the country's troops stationed in the 'Sacred City'. As for food and grass, do you know that our Fante Empire has such a high annual food output, why only a small part is sold to other empires? Do you know why the Bicester Empire's food production is so high every year?
There are so many livestock, but on the dining table of our empire, except for the nobles, the common people cannot eat the tender meat from the north at all?"
Lei suddenly realized and said with a smile, Jerry said with a smile: "Every certain day, a large amount of materials will be sent here secretly in the name of a mainland chamber of commerce, including bows and arrows made by the Dark Empire, the Smart Empire
The crystals and other war preparation materials produced, so the strength of the divine city can be imagined."
Lei exclaimed: "Are they all secret?"
Jerry shrugged his shoulders: "Of course, it's all secret. If my grandfather hadn't been a direct descendant of a certain prince, and I was good friends with the grandson of the old man Messeau, I wouldn't have known this... Wow.
, What a tight defense.”
I saw that there were still seven or eight miles away from the city wall. The ground was already densely covered with metal fences, spikes, traps, etc. There were also countless bunkers and arrow towers densely distributed in the valley.
, warriors with resolute faces and wearing light blue armor, holding bows, arrows and spears, are distributed among these fortifications.
Jerry whispered: "The Judgment Fighters of the Rhett Empire are as powerful as the Beast Soul Fighters. In this man-made complex terrain, they are the most terrifying opponents in hand-to-hand combat."
Several Judgment Fighters more than ten feet away actually heard Jerry's admiration. They turned their heads with a smile on their faces and nodded to them.
Lei whispered: "I don't know what their combat capabilities are, but their hearing is so scary. If anyone wants to slip through such a line of defense, it must be that he is not a human being."
The nearby Judgment Fighters all had smiles on their faces, and it was obvious that they had also heard Lei's praise. No matter what, being praised by people on the mainland was a cause for joy for those who guarded the 'Sacred City'
.They have stayed in the 'City of Gods' all their lives, and what they did for that is people like Lei and the others? But Lei and the others are also warriors now and can only help them defend.
Going further, a huge city wall with a height of three hundred feet was pulled up from the ground, and a murderous aura, or death aura, emanated from the black wall in such a mighty manner. Lei shuddered all over, and was almost struck by this.
A huge murderous aura rushed over him, and beside him, Carlin and a group of Smart magicians, whose bodies were not as strong as Lei and the others, inexplicably trembled all over and took a few steps back, looking at the city wall in front of them.
Speechless.
Climbing up the stairs that could accommodate ten people walking side by side, Lei secretly glanced at the three gates of the 'City of Gods'. Three huge gates that could accommodate fifty knights charging side by side at the same time, but three
The city gates are sealed with iron plates of unknown thickness, and we still don’t know how to raise the city gates.
What surprised Lei and others was still behind. The city wall was three hundred feet high, but there were arrow towers on the city wall that were a hundred feet high. On each arrow tower, there were dozens of mages in purple robes watching the surroundings.
This city wall is a mile thick. Like the defensive positions below, it is full of traps, traps, secret doors, etc. The entire city wall is a fortified city that can be garrisoned.
Led by several Glory Knights, their group of coalition generals carefully approached the battlements of the city wall in front. Then, they saw the ten-foot-long sharp iron spikes on the front wall. Each large iron spike had
, and were densely covered with sharp iron teeth that were several inches long, enough to hang the muscles on a person's body. Kalin took a few steps back with a pale face, because there were tens of thousands of iron thorns on the countless huge iron thorns.
Tall skeletons of corpses hung above.
Those bones were very old, and the muscles and internal organs had all rotted away. Only the blue-gray skeletons were still hanging on the iron spikes. Many of the skeletons were missing arms and legs. They had obviously been chopped off with sharp blades and then forced away from the city wall.
It goes up and down and hangs on those sharp thorns.
In front of the city wall, there is a ditch that is thirty feet wide and at least fifty feet deep. It is also densely covered with sharp iron piles. The bones on it are piled up like a mountain. It looks so miserable and lifeless.
A gloomy wind rushed out from the ditch and the iron thorns. Outside the entire 'Sacred City', the gloomy wind was miserable. Even the land outside was barren and looked gray.
And on this gray land that has been ravaged many times by the magicians stationed in the 'Sacred City' with powerful magic, there are countless bones piled up here and there, some of which are human, and some of which are unknown.
What kind of giant beast is it? At least on this continent, it is impossible for such a huge monster to be over fifty feet tall.
Between the piles of bones, there are countless supporting wooden poles. You can see tattered animal skins or strips of cloth hanging on them. Without exception, there is a person who has turned into a skeleton tied to the wooden poles.
The corpses were covered with skulls and looked very ghostly.
Among these terrifying existences, what makes people feel even more evil are the simple gallows made of wood, with black ropes floating in the air, but there are no corpses on them, because the corpses
The bones had weathered, fallen off, and broken into pieces, all piled up under the rope.
From the walls of the 'City of God' to the beach hundreds of miles away, there are these terrible things everywhere. White mist gathers and floats among the corpses, as if a group of ghosts are looking for their own corpses.
Usually, the sea breeze blows through this wasteland, and when it passes those empty skulls, it makes a shrill whistle, as if the ghosts of the entire wasteland are screaming crazily.
Kalin's face turned pale and he hid behind Shaboko, no longer daring to look at the scene outside the city. The other generals who came from big aristocratic families didn't look any better either. They only knew that the 'Sacred City' was responsible for the defense of the city.
An important mission for the entire continent, but they never imagined that after hundreds of thousands of years of crazy killing, the 'Sacred City' would be such a terrifying place.
Everyone, including Lei, deeply believes that this place should not be called the 'Sacred City', but should be called 'Ghost'. Look at the residents in the 'Sacred City', they have no vitality and no interest in life.
, without any entertainment. Their lifelong mission is to give birth to a lot of strong boys or girls. Men receive training from an early age and strive to become a powerful warrior; women receive training from an early age and strive to have more children.
child.
This is the 'City of God', and the life here is simply hell. Whether it is for the sinners or the residents of the 'City of God', this place is simply hell.
Hart's voice sounded from behind them: "Everyone, you'd better get used to the scene below... Our seven legions stationed in the 'God City', the reserve soldiers were in the wilderness outside during their survival training at the age of twelve.
If we can survive alone for a year, you should be able to survive too. Because we have to face such a scenery and fight against those bloodthirsty enemies, you must become strong."
Carlin didn't want to ask, but he couldn't help it: "What did you eat in this desert when you were training?"
Hart glanced at Carlin strangely, as if he didn't want to say anything, but still answered him: "There are many bones-gnawing rats that can be hunted. If that doesn't work... Although two hundred years have passed, the atmosphere here is weird.
Some of the corpses buried deep under the piles of bones are still not completely decomposed."
When Carlin and several noble commanders heard this, they vomited crazily at the same time. Lomat was not behind Carlin's speed, and he spit it out in one gulp.
Although Lei didn't vomit, his face looked extremely ugly. His mind went blank, and he didn't dare to imagine how rigorous survival training it was.
Hart suddenly said: "Attention, their advance sentry is here... I guess they should have appeared in the past few days, huh, they are on the beach, there is no way they can find much food. Ha, by God
The criminals who were deported to that barren continent, huh, they are here."
A strong man with long hair hanging down to his waist, who was not shorter than Bobcat, was holding a wooden stick and striding towards this side. His whole body was covered only with a piece of animal skin around his lower body.
The rest of his body was completely naked. As he got closer, he could see that his whole body was covered in terrible scars, including scars left after being torn apart by wild beasts. There was even a scar from his left shoulder to his right thigh.
It was obvious that when he was injured, his abdomen was completely torn open.
Lei exclaimed: "What a majestic man, damn, if that wound had been on me, I would have died."
Hart looked at Lei seriously and said loudly: "Never underestimate those criminals. They have terrible fighting spirit, a fighting spirit that exists purely for fighting. Don't forget that the God of War who betrayed the gods is the one they believe in."
The target, the God of War who trampled on the glory of the warriors, gave them the power that is far more powerful than our fighting spirit. Therefore, you must be careful. Unless you chop off their heads and limbs, otherwise, you must be careful when he comes.
Fight back...even if they cut off his head, they still have the strength to blow your head to pieces with one last punch."
Ray, Jerry, Crete, and even the generals including Bobcat swallowed involuntarily, only to find that their throats were so dry that there was no liquid at all. Hart was not a bluff, since If he said this, then these criminals are really so terrible.
The man walked closer and closer, and gradually came within two thousand feet of the city wall. Behind him, hundreds of similarly naked or even naked strong men slowly appeared. They all held thick weapons in their hands. Wooden sticks, only a few people have iron spearheads inlaid on the wooden sticks.
Hart sneered: "The continent they were expelled to has only very meager minerals, so they don't have very good weapons. This is also our luck, huh..."
As for the sinners, they were already looking at the 'City of Gods', where they sang a very desolate song, with a strong and hoarse voice and an ancient melody. Accompanied by the wind in the desert, they seemed like a group of evil ghosts from hell. He was about to come to the human world to ask for something.
Lei vaguely heard the lyrics they sang.
"I have lost my God's grace... I have lost my God and I am on the mountain... I am homeless... I have no fixed place to live... I have no food to eat... I have no descendants..."
The group of big men walked back and forth among the piles of bones, constantly looking at the defense system of the 'Sacred City'. A swordsman wearing silver armor and holding a huge long sword suddenly walked up with a light step and yelled: " The sinful people expelled by God must either come to attack the city or get away.”
Those criminals glanced at the swordsmen of the Light Swordsmen Group, and continued to wander back and forth in a distant place, constantly spying on the 'City of Gods'.
Lei subconsciously asked: "What is their divine grace?"
Hart shrugged his shoulders and sneered: "The vast grassland between the Vante Empire and the 'God City' is the only land on the entire continent that is more fertile than the Qingfeng Plain."
Lei Moran, he seemed to suddenly think of something. He seemed to be able to understand a little bit why the songs of those people were filled with such deep sadness...
