Equipped with the shawl of Hecate, the goddess of the night, the little light that just came out immediately disappeared.
The stars and the moon, which had gradually dimmed, returned to the sky in an instant.
It's about four o'clock in the morning and basically everyone is sleeping.
But there are also people who get up early, or guards who are responsible for patrolling and standing guard. How could such a strange change in the sky go unnoticed?
Some were a little confused, staring at the night in a daze from the window, unable to figure out the situation.
There was obviously some light, but why did it suddenly turn late at night? Am I in a trance?
There are also some who are more vigilant, such as the palace guards. Although they are very sleepy, they react immediately when they see this scene and quickly notify the palace.
Not long after, the king, queen, prince, and civil and military ministers were all awakened from their sleep, and they also felt that something was wrong.
At this moment, there was an extremely strange sound in the night, like someone laughing evilly, and it spread throughout the entire country of Normia.
When I went out to take a look, I saw demons dancing wildly in the sky and black shadows floating everywhere.
At that time, the king was so frightened that he prepared to urgently summon civil and military officials to question him and find out what happened.
However, at this moment, Jia Zhengjin descended from the sky and landed outside the palace gate to stop the soldiers who were delivering the order, and at the same time asked to see the king.
The king was panicked at this moment. Hearing that this strong mercenary was coming, he quickly invited him in.
As soon as he arrived at the palace, Jia Zhengjin saw the king, queen, Prince Julian, and Prince Atticus gathered together in a panic. They were surrounded by heavily armed guards with very nervous expressions.
As soon as he entered the palace, Atticus immediately came to meet him with a surprised expression: "Mr. Martin! Do you know what is happening outside?"
"Yes! Mr. Martin, what's going on?" The king was also flustered. The weird laughter that kept echoing in his ears made people's hair stand on end. Could it be that today is the disaster day for the Kingdom of Normia? It's not so unlucky, right?
"Mr. Martin, this voice is different from the one in Devil's Canyon before. Do you know what's going on?" Prince Julian was also scared.
This is what Jia Zhengjin hopes to see, and it’s okay if he’s afraid.
As long as they are afraid, they will not go out to investigate casually, and they can avoid damaging their own good. They immediately said: "Please don't worry, I have already grasped this matter."
"Is it related to Devil's Canyon?" the king said quickly, "Mr. Martin, can you handle it? Why is this happening suddenly? Will it cause a serious disaster to our country?"
The queen did not speak, but just like the two princes, she stared at Jia Zhengjin, waiting for the answer.
Jia Zhengjin nodded slightly and said to the king: "That's right! It should be a problem with Devil's Canyon. I haven't found out the specific reason yet. Now the devil is raging, and my teammates are trying to control the situation. The devil is extremely ferocious. In order to avoid unnecessary incidents,
There are casualties and we need your Majesty’s help!”
"Tell me! If you need any help, I'll give the order right away!" The king was scared! You said he wasn't worried about leading troops to fight, and it's not like he didn't have generals who could fight. But facing the devil, he didn't have this ability.
Now we can only place our hope on the mercenary masters in front of us.
Jia Zhengjin immediately said: "As for this demon, my teammates and I will try our best to eliminate it. It's just that your Majesty needs to send someone to inform the people to stay at home during this period, and it is strictly forbidden to go out until the demon is eliminated."
"That's no problem. We will cooperate fully!" the king immediately replied. "I don't want to see any losses to the citizens. But, how long will it take to drive away the demons? Can you and your team successfully drive away the demons? Or will it be necessary?
Any help, I will give you my full support!”
"Your Majesty, relax!" Jia Zhengjin patted his chest, "Although the devil is strong, I am not a vegetarian. It can take as little as one day, as long as two or three days, to ensure that everything is restored as before. But I don't know whether the devil will always keep us in the darkness.
Therefore, it is an absolute condition to prohibit any subject from going out, otherwise we would not want to see any casualties.
"Of course you can't go out until the demon is eliminated!" The king immediately agreed, "I will immediately send someone to notify the whole city, but is it safe now?"
"Your Majesty, you can rest assured! In a short period of time, my teammates and I can ensure that demons cannot invade the city." Jia Zhengjin replied confidently, "But we must hurry up."
Isn't it? The devil is a real devil, and the devil himself leads the team around. But there is no real danger at all. He is just following Jia Zhengjin's order to scare people here and prohibit the subjects of the Kingdom of Normia from going out.
Jia Zhengjin knew it in his heart, but others didn’t!
Both the king and the prince were full of gratitude and respect for him.
So according to Jia Zhengjin's request, the king sent people to announce to the whole city that all subjects and even domestic animals and pets were not allowed to go out. Until the demon was expelled, everyone was hiding in their homes and waiting.
As soon as the order was issued, the messengers led the troops from door to door, delivering the king's order to the ears of every subject, regardless of whether they were asleep or not, and could not understand the situation at all.
After some operations, even the soldiers guarding the city gate were hiding in the temporary military camp next to the city gate. They even gave up patrolling and hid in the camp to secretly observe the situation outside.
This is true even among officials, let alone among the people.
Every household received orders, and no one dared to risk their lives. They all stayed at home, sleeping when they needed to, and resting when they needed to. No one dared to go out.
The plan was successfully accomplished here, blocking the opportunity for the people and the army of Normia to go out to cause trouble. The king's order was absolute, and they did not dare to violate it.
At that time, there were also some passing merchants, pedestrians, or more courageous mercenaries who stayed at the hotel because they were passing through here.
After knowing this, many people tried to lend a helping hand to help calm the chaos.
However, Singer did not launch an attack. He only used coercion to make these people feel terrified, and they hid back in the hotel where they were currently living, shivering in the room.
All in all, with the cooperation of the team led by Singer, the worries were successfully eliminated, and no one dared to come out to face the terror again.
On the other side, with the demon taking control of the situation, Harry continued to show off his strength, desperately summoning a steady stream of undead armies to attack the monsters in the underground lake.
This battle was inseparable and extremely passionate.
And he also controlled the undead army to attack the underground lake for two days.
By the day of the Burning Sun Festival, the monsters in the underground lake had been weakened by Harry's continuous undead army tactics. They were not as strong as they were originally, but they were still far from being defeated.
As long as you persist, hope is right in front of you! (To be continued)
