In the early morning, most of the city residents were still asleep, and the guards had already formed a team and lined up neatly at the city gate, waiting for Zhuo Yan's arrival.
Zhuo Yan stayed up all night, worrying about defending the city. He came to Liao Yunchuan's room and was about to knock on the door, but the door was not locked.
He opened the door in surprise, but there was no one in the room.
Where did Liao Yunchuan go?
"Report to the city lord, all the guards are in place and waiting for the city lord to dispatch!" Zhuo Hu came to report.
"I'll be there right away." Zhuo Yan didn't have time to worry about Liao Yunchuan, it was important to defend the city.
On the way to the city gate, Zhuo Hu said: "City Lord, the saints outside the city have moved their camps far away. This does not seem like a sign of an attack."
"Maybe the attack last night shocked them and made them palpitate." Zhuo Yan speculated. "By the way, did City Lord Liao tell you anything last night?"
"No." Zhuo Hu thought for a while and said, "However, when he fought with a saint last night, it seemed that the saint bit his arm..."
"Is this true?" Zhuo Yan felt bad, "Why didn't he inform me about this last night?"
"After City Master Liao was bitten, he said it was just a superficial injury and there was no need to report it." Zhuo Hu said a little apologetically, "It's all because of the negligence of his subordinates and not making the matter clear."
"It's useless to say all this. You quickly take people to the city to search for Liao Yunchuan's whereabouts. No matter whether he has undergone any changes or not, bring him back to me. If you want to see him alive, you want to see his corpse!"
"yes!"
Zhuo Hu immediately led people to search the city, while Zhuo Yan went straight to the city gate. To his surprise, the saint's army had no intention of attacking at all.
Last night, when Liao Yunchuan and Zhuo Hu escaped, they could have chased them, but they suddenly returned. Zhuo Yan never understood the reason, but now he understands. The saint bit Liao Yunchuan, and Liao Yunchuan was a walking source of infection. Liao Yunchuan entered Cangyue City
Later, it can infect the city's citizens on a large scale.
"Oops!"
After thinking about this clearly, Zhuo Yan broke out in a cold sweat. If Liao Yunchuan caused chaos in the city, Cangyue City would also be destroyed!
If the army of saints attacks from the outside, they can still defend with all their strength, but if the disaster spreads from the inside, the consequences will be disastrous!
Just when Zhuo Yan wanted to send more manpower to search the city, the army of saints that had been silent surged over like ants on a hot pot, rolling up smoke and dust all over the sky, and rushed towards the city gate.
"Hold it!"
Zhuo Yan shouted loudly, and the guards on the city wall each used their vitality to condense into a bunch of vitality arrows, and shot them at the rushing army of saints.
"Bang bang bang!"
A large area of the saint fell down, and those who were not shot into the vital parts got up again, fighting one after another, fearless of death. There were nearly 100,000 guards guarding the city, while the number of saints attacking the city was more than 400,000. The difference in strength was four times.
The guards were a little overwhelmed.
At the beginning, the guards were condescending and had the upper hand. Almost one man was able to block the way and no one could get through. The saint's army injured more than 100,000 people, but the guards guarding the city were unscathed because the saint's only attack method was to bite.
Before entering the City of Cang Yue, they could not bite anything.
The saint's corpses piled up into a hill in front of the city gate. The guards became more and more courageous as they fought. Some of them were not afraid of death and jumped off the city wall directly to fight the enemy. The saint's army was defeated in one blow. Zhuo Yan also joined the battle group and opened the city gate to fight.
, vowing to annihilate the saint’s entire army!
The jade-faced fox was watching the battle with the woman from behind. With his strength, the city of Cangyue could be captured easily, and it would not be so difficult at all. Seeing the saint's army in decline, he smiled instead of angry.
Because these saints were all formed by human mutations, they were essentially human cannibalism. A large number of saints fell, and he quietly became a spectator, watching humans slaughter their fellow humans, and felt extremely happy in his heart.
Moreover, he also has a trump card - Liao Yunchuan. Last night, he ordered the saint to stop the pursuit and deliberately let Liao Yunchuan go back. Now, Liao Yunchuan is the most powerful sword in his hand. This sword is enough to pierce the entire Cangyue
City!
While Zhuo Yan fought bravely to kill the enemy, a fierce battle was also going on in the city. Liao Yunchuan started biting people from a restaurant in the city. The bites in the restaurant spread everywhere. Within half an hour, the center of the city became the world of saints.
Forty thousand people were infected.
When Zhuo Hu arrived with more than a dozen guards, he understood what it means to be a sheep entering the tiger's mouth. Although he resisted and killed dozens of saints, he was eventually infected and became a member of the army of saints.
Outside the city, Zhuo Yan led 100,000 guards to kill all the saints, and good news came frequently. But earth-shaking changes had taken place in the city. After Zhuo Yan completely eliminated the saints stationed outside the city, the number of infected people in the city
It has reached more than 300,000, and the number is still rising.
It was dusk and the sun was setting in the west. Zhuo Yan was holding a spear and standing in the sunset. Covered in blood, he looked like a god of war. He alone had killed thousands of saints. His guards also made great achievements in battle.
Thousands of saints were killed.
"City Lord, we won the battle to defend the city!" The guards shed tears excitedly, moved by their victory.
"Yeah, thank you for your hard work." Zhuo Yan was also moved, but he didn't show it. Zhuo Hu went to the city to search for Liao Yunchuan. After a few hours, there was still no trace. Maybe something happened.
Zhuo Yan was about to take people back to the city when the jade-faced fox and the woman appeared in front of him, blocking his way.
"Boy, I see that you are brave, fearless, powerful, and very courageous. I am in need of an assistant with both strength and courage. Are you willing?" the jade-faced fox said leisurely.
"Who are you, pretending to be a ghost?" Zhuo Yan scolded.
"I, the Jade-faced Fox, all the sainthood happened because of me." The Jade-faced Fox announced his identity very calmly.
"It turns out that the source of everything is you!" Zhuo Yan shouted angrily, waving his spear and stabbing at the jade-faced fox. The jade-faced fox stretched out his hand, and a shield made of condensed purple energy appeared, blocking Zhuo Yan's attack.
.
"Lock!"
The jade-faced fox gave an order, and a burst of purple energy shot out from his fingertips, forming a chain that easily locked Zhuo Yan's throat and dropped Zhuo Yan in the air.
"City Lord!"
Two guards stepped forward to rescue them. The jade-faced fox waved his hand, and two rays of vitality shot out, penetrating their chests.
"Leave me alone!" Zhuo Yan shouted nervously, "Monster, what do you want to do?"
"Haha, as long as you agree to be my assistant, I can let the people in the city go. Currently, there are only more than 500,000 saints, and there are nearly 2.5 million more. Their fate is in your hands."
"Despicable!" Zhuo Yan felt disdainful, but there was nothing he could do. This feeling was too painful.
"How about, agree or refuse?"
"I...I have no choice!" Zhuo Yan can only agree. If he doesn't agree, not only will he die, but the people in the city will also become saints. As long as there is still life, there is still the possibility of revenge!
