The second thousand one hundred and sixty-four chapters cooperate from top to bottom
The Kuocheng wall surrounds the entire city. Unlike ordinary cities, which have an inner city and an outer city, there is only one tall Kuocheng wall.
It's just that for such a long city wall, only one city gate was built, which is an extremely rare situation. Especially the city wall of Kuocheng cannot be greatly modified, especially the city gates cannot be added at will.
For this continent where high-level warriors are rampant, a city wall alone cannot stop warriors above the Qi Sensing stage who can fly in the air. Warriors above the Qi cultivation stage can even directly destroy the city wall.
Therefore, the real defense of the city wall does not lie in the wall, but in the formation. There is only one south gate in this vast city, and of course there is only one passage that can be opened normally by the formation.
On such a long city wall, there are naturally guards responsible for guarding, but the number is not large. The city guards are mainly responsible for defense at the city gate, and a large number of warriors are stationed here.
Among the City Guards, the highest person in charge is the General Banner of the City Guards. Originally there were four people, namely the four Guihua Su Wang families. Now of course there are only two left, one from each of the Su Wang families.
Each general banner has four additional flag officers. These flag officers will lead dozens of warriors, respectively responsible for rotation defense and defense change. Almost each batch of city guards will be on duty at the city gates and walls for about three to four days.
About an hour.
Since the four families of Gui Painter and Su Wang were at war with each other, the city guards had become responsible for two families at a time, that is, the Su family and the painter. The Gui family and the Wang family were stationed in the city at the same time. After knowing that the ghost painter was destroyed, there was an emergency in the city.
, the Suwang family worked together to defend the city gate, so the four teams took turns to go to the city. After all, it was an arrangement under special circumstances, and everyone did not complain.
At this time, a group of people in the morning had just evacuated from the city wall. There was only a flag officer at the city gate with a small number of people waiting for the next group of warriors to change the defense.
Under normal circumstances, the warriors who take turns to defend can quickly go up to the city wall to replace them and rest. But it is different today. In the morning, this team of warriors left the city a quarter of an hour early, which means that the next group of warriors will not arrive until a quarter of an hour later at the earliest.
Only then can we come.
This flag officer, known as Wang Neng, could tell that he knew Shu Jia from his words. Especially after seeing the fire in the warehouse below, he immediately took action. The first step was to send those people away. Now
Most of the few people left in the city are spies who followed Wang Neng and infiltrated the Wang family.
When the warriors who had changed their defenses hurriedly walked down the stairs, the six warriors in the city immediately turned their attention to Wang Neng. Facing the gazes of these people, Wang Neng nodded calmly, and the smile on his face began to become more intense.
Intensify.
Without any hesitation, these six people suddenly burst out with spiritual energy that they had been waiting for. They waved their weapons and quickly attacked the surroundings. One moment they were friends of the same family, and the next moment they became violent enemies.
The other eight people didn't even realize what was going on and were killed on the spot.
Looking at the killed Wang family warriors, Wang Neng couldn't help but have a cold look flash across his face. Although the group of people under him had penetrated into the interior through Wang Zheng's relationship as a vassal family of the Wang family, they could not help but
He soon cut off contact with Wang Zheng.
And when Wang Zheng was on his deathbed, he had already completely forgotten about the group of people he had recruited many years ago.
In fact, Wang Neng had been worried that if he was exposed, it would be difficult to carry out the plan, and even transferred his subordinates for a time. However, after the ghost painter was wiped out, he was still safe and sound, so he felt relieved and reunited a few people.
Transfer back to a team.
In this way, it would be easier for them to act in the same team. Wang Neng did not need to take action at all, and the other eight Wang family warriors were killed on the spot.
Ignoring the six men and quickly disposing of the eight corpses, Wang Neng had already set his sights outside the city. Unlike before, the sun was high in the sky at noon, and it was impossible to see the light using the aura stone.
Wang Neng was already prepared. He took out a small ball made of bamboo, lit the fuse extending from the ball, and then threw it out of the city.
The small ball made of bamboo had just fallen less than two feet away from the hand, when suddenly fierce flames gush out from it, but there was no sound, but the flames and thick smoke could be clearly seen from a distance.
.
On the high slope outside the city gate, a middle-aged man with an upper body and hair as long as steel needles suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the fireball falling at the city gate.
"Is this your signal?"
The man with an impatient face was naturally the eighth-level transformed ghost beast Ming Hai. The person he asked was of course the big shopkeeper next to him.
The big shopkeeper, who was full of respect, immediately raised his fists and saluted respectfully, and replied: "In return for Lord Xuetu, the fireball falling from the top of the city is the secret code of my Lin family. This means that the preparations above the city gate have been made. Let's...
…”
Noticing that the other party's brows were slightly wrinkled, the big shopkeeper also kept silent obediently, knowing that such a decision was not something he should be involved in. His eyes passed over the big shopkeeper and slowly fell back.
"Hmm...Lulu"
There was a slight rolling in the throat, and Minghai seemed to be moaning, and then it made a long series of muffled sounds. As the sound in its throat continued to sound, the countless prostrate Nether beasts behind it slowly stood up one by one.
, and at the same time, the hair on his body stood on end like steel needles.
"Lulu...Lulu..."
Hundreds of armies of Netherworld beasts stood up one after another, forming a large gray mass. It was impossible to see such a huge number crawling in the grass before.
With a cold smile on his rough face, Ming Hai stepped out, followed immediately by hundreds of Nether Beasts behind him.
There are more than thirty sixth-order netherworld beasts, almost fifty fifth-order netherworld beasts, and the number of other third-order netherworld beasts is over a hundred. With such terrifying levels and numbers, as long as they can enter the city, they can easily kill everyone in the city.
of creatures.
This is not all the Nether Beasts in the southern part of the Xuanwu Empire. Outside of Guanmen City, there are still a few Nether Beasts left to show off their bluff. After Kuocheng here is completely occupied, these Nether Beasts will naturally fight back again.
However, more than 80% of the Nether beasts in southern Xuanwu have been completely concentrated here, which shows that Ninghai is determined to win Kuocheng.
Many Nether Beasts, led by Ming Hai, moved towards the city gate in a mighty manner. Ordinary warriors may not have such good eyesight, but Wang Neng, who was standing at the top of the watchtower, had already narrowed his eyes slightly.
Although he had been prepared for a long time, now that he saw such a large number of Netherworld beasts, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Although the two parties were in a cooperative relationship, after all, he was a human being, and the other party was a member of the Netherworld clan among vicious beasts.
Suppressing his emotions, Wang Neng turned his head and shouted below: "Everyone, let's move and start taking action according to the original plan."
The six Wang family warriors responded in unison, and then divided into two teams and moved quickly. Each of the six people divided into two teams, three of them ran towards the back of the watchtower, and the other three went straight down the steps to the top of the city gate.
The location of the gentle step at the bottom of the watchtower.
On the back side of the watchtower and on the slow platform below, there is a metal pole as thick as the mouth of a bowl. This metal pole extends from the inside of the city wall. The surface of the metal pole is rubbed and shiny, which is obviously normal.
There are often people using it.
Among the three warriors, one has reached the early stage of receiving Qi, but he cannot pull the metal rod by himself. It takes three people working together and exerting all their strength to shake the thick metal rod.
The metal rod moved slightly, and a series of sounds came from the bottom of the metal rod, "Ka Leng Leng...". These sounds continued to pass downwards along the metal rod, extending to the city gate below.
If you pay close attention to the bottom, you will find that the city gate of Kuocheng is embedded into the masonry below the ground about several feet deep. There is a groove in the ground where the city gate is located, and the city gate is embedded in it. If you want to open it,
Unless the city gate is destroyed, it will be impossible to open it.
Now that the metal rod behind the watchtower has moved, the city gate below has also begun to be slowly lifted, so that the city gate can be opened freely as long as the door bolt is removed.
But how could this change be hidden from the guards in front of the city gate below? They were not the same group of people as the guards on the city wall, and it was not time to change defenses, so they naturally could not leave early.
When they found that the city gate was slowly being lifted, they immediately knew that the mechanism above had been opened. The guards at the city gate immediately became vigilant. Since more than a month ago, the city gate of Kuocheng has been completely sealed, and no one is allowed to enter or exit under strict orders.
.
Just as the mechanism of the city gate was slowly being lifted up, the metal pole on the walking platform below the watchtower was also moved. Immediately after the city gate hole, there were rays of light squirming on the inside of the city wall that could not be touched by people's sight.
, at this time, a formation was in operation.
The function of this formation is to isolate the power of the formation. The area covered by the formation happens to be the location of the city gate. Only when this formation is fully operational can the city gate be fully opened. Otherwise, it would just open the city gate.
People coming from the outside still cannot pass through the city gate hole.
Only when this formation is activated to isolate the city defense formation, people can freely enter and exit the city gate.
The city guards at the city gates immediately knew that something was wrong. This formation should not be opened continuously, especially after the city gate was lifted by the agency. The person in charge of the city must confirm it with the people below immediately before proceeding.
Open the second mechanism.
The person in charge below was also a flag officer. When he noticed something was wrong, he immediately prepared to go to the city guard station to report to the general flag.
But just as he turned around, he suddenly saw a large group of warriors rushing towards him like wolves and tigers. At first, a man had a stern look on his face, and a slightly weird long knife flashed past in his hand, and the flag officer flashed
