Outside Dawn City, there was a large tent stationed, and many knights were drinking and eating meat inside, living a very happy life.
At this time, the city gate opened, and a group of people wearing linen clothes came out.
"Come on." Several knights stood up immediately, with joking smiles on their faces, and walked towards those people.
They pretended to be ferocious and threatened: "Go back!"
"Sir," one of the residents begged, "the food at home is almost gone. If we don't buy food as soon as possible, my whole family will starve to death. Please let me go."
"This is a closed period. No one is allowed to go out without our order."
"But……"
The knight shouted angrily: "If you don't go back, I will break your dog's legs!"
Several citizens returned to Shuguang City dejectedly and closed the city gate.
As soon as they entered the city, they came to a newly built building not far away.
A woman wearing a loose mage's robe sat on a chair, looking at the people returning, frowning involuntarily.
"Miss Tina, those damn guys never let us out." The residents said helplessly.
"I know." Tina was a little upset. If she had known this would happen, she shouldn't have let the caravan enter the city half a month ago.
Chris once said that blue bricks are strategic materials and the production process must be firmly in her own hands, so Tina will not sell the formula to that Marquis under any circumstances.
But now, the Marquis's men have blocked Dawn City, preventing them from entering or exiting.
In just six months, the population of Shuguang City increased from a few hundred to more than 10,000. The land originally used for sowing was simply not enough, so most of the food needed in the city was purchased from Mote City.
And now that the city is sealed off, food is a little tight.
Although Linda can make plants grow quickly, she is only at level three after all, and her total magic power is too small to meet the food needs of tens of thousands of people.
In particular, most of the people in her territory are big eaters like minotaurs and rhinoceros people, and she has to cultivate saffron every day, so she can't get rid of it.
Tina also tried to resist, but failed.
Onisudo was restrained by two sixth-level strongmen on the opposite side. There were seven or eight fifth-level knights, far more than his own side.
The number of knights dispatched by the opponent reached more than 120. Not counting the dragon Kinubi, the Edmund Association was much inferior to them.
Tina pinched her eyebrows and sighed in her heart: "I don't know when Chris will come back. How can I survive these two months?"
······
After driving back the citizens who had left the city, the knights walked back to the tent in a swaggering manner, as if they had done something quite remarkable.
The same thing has happened countless times in the past few days.
"The Marquis is so generous and spends fifty thousand gold coins to buy the blue brick formula, but they don't sell it. It's really ungrateful."
"He is just a little kid. He is extremely arrogant based on his achievements in the pioneering order. Little does he know that his meager achievements are nothing in front of a seventh-level extraordinary powerhouse. The Marquis can crush him to death with one hand."
"Guess how many more days they can hold on?"
"I guess five days ago, there was only planting land for two to three hundred people in his territory half a year ago. Even if he harvests food this season, it probably won't be much."
"Haha, doesn't that mean they will open the door and beg for mercy in five days?"
This group of knights were playing and frolicking. In a luxurious tent not far from them, two nobles were sitting with two plates of steak in front of them. They were eating a piece of meat and drinking two sips of wine, which was very comfortable.
"Ignaz, why do we have to do this kind of hard work? Isn't it good to eat watermelon at home with the maid in your arms on such a hot day?"
Ignaz on the other side sighed, "Stop complaining about Bugatti. The only sixth-level warriors available to the Marquis are you and me."
Bugatti said bitterly: "That damn little aristocrat refused to let go, causing us two brothers to live such a miserable life in this remote place. If it were not for the constraints of the "Noble Code", I would definitely skin him.
Cramp him."
Ignaz said: "I heard that the boy is not in the city, and the person in charge now is a handsome female magician,"
"Is she the one we met last time?" Bugatti's eyes lit up, "Just in time, call her out and ask her to have a few drinks with us."
"I agree." Ignaz stretched his body twice, "If she doesn't want to, I'll beat her until she agrees. It just so happens that I haven't been active for a few days, and my bones are a little itchy."
"Let's go, let's go to that broken city and call her out."
Just as they thought, the two sixth-level experts walked out of the tent and came to Dawn City.
The guards on the city wall observed the situation and took up their weapons one by one to prepare for the attack.
"Hey!" Bugatti spread his voice with fighting spirit, "Dear Miss Magician, we have prepared fine wine and delicious food for you. I wonder if you can go and have a few drinks with us as a favor?"
His voice was so loud that it could be heard in almost half of the city.
Tina clenched her fists until her knuckles turned white.
Only she has shown it in front of the other party, so they must be calling her.
Lauder, the leader of the Tauren clan, punched the ground angrily and said angrily: "This damn guy!"
After shouting for a while, there was no response, but Bugatti was not in a hurry. He continued loudly: "As long as you are willing to accompany us brothers for dinner, we will lift the three-day ban on your city."
Lauder couldn't bear it any longer. He lay down on the edge of the city wall, spat, and said, "Bah, what are you barking at?"
"If Mr. Chris were here, how dare you be so arrogant."
"When did a beast become worthy of talking?" Bugatti was furious after being scolded by the tauren, "Even if that kid were here, we two brothers would make him kneel down and beg for mercy."
How could Laud with such a violent temper stand such a provocation? He immediately jumped off the city wall and struck the Bugatti with the iron ax in his hand.
Bugatti dodged slightly and avoided the oncoming attack. Although he was one level higher than the big guy opposite him, Lauder had the blood of Warcraft and was not inferior in strength at all.
Lauder struck the air, but before he could take back the axe, Bugatti flew up and kicked him on the shoulder.
"Bang!" Lauder's body was unstable and he staggered a few steps.
Bugatti and Ignatz struck at the same time, stabbing him with their swords.
At this moment, a red figure stood in front of Lauder, holding his swords.
Lauder's eyes lit up: "Master Chris?!"
Chris looked at the two people opposite and said calmly: "I'm right here. I want to see how you make me kneel down and beg for mercy."
