The thick fog rolled over the wall of the city of thick fog, and everything it passed was wet with moisture. Johnson Dou Ruixing stood in the fog on the city wall, staring at the team outside the city.
The patriarch of the Dorui Xing family is already quite old. He has stayed in the dim world of the North for too long, and the blood and passion of his youth have been exhausted, and he has long since reached a compromise with his fate.
As for the bold team that suddenly appeared two to three hundred meters outside the city, especially the young people riding skeleton war horses, they were really full of vigor and vitality that had not been seen in the North for many years. In contrast, the patriarch felt that he was old and decayed.
There is a red flag flying behind the young man, which is so dazzling in the black and gray Northland. Accompanying that flag are more than a hundred young men with strong morale. They may be too immature and not elite enough, but they and
The timid soldiers under the nobles are completely different.
The last time the Dorui Xing family went to Cold Wind City to capture Victor Hugo, they thought they would be able to capture Victor Hugo, but they returned in vain. The whole family wandered around like lonely ghosts, and when they came back, they all lamented themselves.
Nothing was accomplished.
Thinking about it more carefully, everyone was secretly surprised that their own actions seemed to be restricted at every turn, with no room for flexibilities. But no one could explain why exactly.
The patriarch stands on the city wall where the mist is billowing, with mottled stones and broken crenels at his hands. The descendants behind him are like a group of ignorant fools. The whole family seems to be living in a tomb - blocked, ignorant, and arrogant.
If the Dark Sun's belief had not descended on the City of Fog, this city famous for its hot springs would have been quite peaceful. People were living like zombies in misery, with no future at all and would only slowly rot.
It was Cyric's interference that caused the Doruixing family to regain some of their blood and grow a few fangs in the brutal internal fighting. Compare this to the team outside the city that came from more than a hundred kilometers away.
.....
The family members on the city felt that they were not worth mentioning in terms of ruthlessness and decisiveness.
The patriarch believes that he is still strong. Although his head is gray and his skin is wrinkled, his arms are strong and powerful, his eyes are as sharp as light, and his martial arts are at an unprecedented peak. He believes that the strength of his family has been greatly improved.
but......
"Why do these untouchables have the guts to provoke us?" Anglin, the second daughter, leaned on the wall, her ugly and fierce face full of anger at being offended and insulted. The brothers and sisters behind her were also filled with resentment.
The reality was beyond the expectations of the Duo Ruixing family. Zhou Qingfeng really led hundreds of troops to fight from Cold Wind City. This team was not strong at all, most of them were low-level adventurers, and there were even many civilians.
Even Victor Hugo himself, riding on that skeletal horse was quite majestic, but his strength seemed to be average. At least there were several people on the city walls of Dense Fog City who could surpass him.
"Father, are we just going to watch that group of untouchables provoking outside the city?" Marmara, the third son, encouraged: "He is the target of Dark Sun, why don't you rush out and catch him?"
All the girls on the city wall were eager to try, but Johnson and Dou Ruixing were very alert and hesitant. In order to control the young man opposite, Anri was willing to lose a chosen one and promised a heavy reward.
For his sake, the Dorui Xing family was forced to go out and carefully set up traps. Now this guy actually came to their doorstep. How could they let such a big deal go?
But Cyric also emphasized that Victor Hugo should not be underestimated and that he must bring more people with him.
Is it useful to bring more people?
After careful consideration, Johnson and Dou Ruixing realized that he didn’t have much choice. He yelled, “Tell all the people in our city. Give bread to those slaves and tell them that there will be a reward for catching anyone on the other side.”
.”
Yes, there are more than 10,000 people in the city, which is enough!
Outside the city, Zhou Qingfeng, who was riding a skeletal war horse, completed a four-day march and arrived at his first destination. Hundreds of cavalry and logistics personnel followed him out of trust, but now they were looking at the dense fog city.
The city walls...
This is no different from the previous attack on Cold Wind City, where there were people to greet and arrange for it. The sentinels of the Duo Ruixing family showed up on Zhou Qingfeng's team early. The city gates had been closed, and the city walls were quickly filled with people. Heavy crossbows and archers were already there.
Ready.
Everyone in the team looked at each other in confusion. They couldn't figure out what the head of the family wanted to do in such a hurry.
Siege a city? Just over a hundred people are simply not enough!
Zhou Qingfeng stopped two or three hundred meters away from the city gate, looking at the fluttering population on the city wall and the flag of the Duo Ruixing family from a distance, but he breathed a sigh of relief. He did not explain to his subordinates, but turned to look at Kelly beside him.
The halfling girl has been very good these days. She never wanders around and always follows Zhou Qingfeng. Seeing the man turning his head to look at her, she also looked up and looked back.
It's just that Zhou Qingfeng usually makes jokes with her, but today he had a cold face, "Kelly, what do you want Cyric to do?"
Kelly, who originally had a smile on her face, was stunned when she heard this, and then her face trembled and twisted, as if she was a different person. Her eyes became sharp, her expression fierce, and she stared at the man.
But Zhou Qingfeng said in a calm tone: "I don't know your origin, nor your purpose, nor what exactly do you want to do? I have been guessing for a long time, and I am also very distressed.
On the one hand, I think you are innocent and unrestrained, with an out-of-the-box personality but no malice. You are a very good girl. On the other hand, I am deeply vigilant and always on guard for fear of falling into a trap and regretting it for the rest of my life.
I don't know what state you are in, or what Cyric has planned. But I have been preparing for this attack on the Northland for a long time, and I am determined to win.
I don’t want to guess what Cyric is doing behind the scenes, and I can’t let that lunatic come back to hold me back, so I have to deal with you.” At the end of his words, Zhou Qingfeng said ‘Sorry’.
Kelly's fierce eyes immediately glared, and she whipped the riding whip in her hand. She quickly jumped up from the horse and tried to stop the target. But Zhou Qingfeng had an 'Emperor's Tear' in his hand.
The gem ejected an extremely powerful jet of negative energy, hitting Kelly who rushed forward. The high concentration of negative energy can quickly kill a living creature's vitality, trap its soul, and forcibly transform it into an undead spirit.
Kelly was hit by the jet as she jumped forward. Her rosy skin quickly turned gray and her eyes lost their luster. She tried to twist her body and change direction, but the distance between them was too close. She still crashed into the man's arms and was killed in an instant.
.
Zhou Qingfeng wanted to grab his wrist and put him down, but the halfling girl's body suddenly burst into thick black mist. Her heart beat again, and she hit the man's chin with a heavy elbow.
This elbow attack used all the girl's strength, causing Zhou Qingfeng's jaw to dislocate and his mouth to bleed. However, the negative energy jet in the 'Emperor's Tears' did not stop, and Kelly's body was still tightly grasped.
The negative energy is quickly counteracting the divine power in the body of the Dark Sun Chosen, and the two confront each other and are annihilated. Kelly is unable to release any magical power at this moment, and can only use all her strength to resist.
If Cyric hadn't been so weak that he couldn't even keep his godhood, Kelly, as a chosen one, would never have been suppressed so easily. However, after she fought back a few times, her fierce expression suddenly faded away, and she returned to her usual appearance...
.
The last elbow hit only touched Zhou Qingfeng's shoulder and fell weakly. Kelly's face had turned from gray to pale. Her body was cold, and her lips trembled as she whispered: "Victor, let me go. I'll tell you this."
It doesn't matter, I still want to live."
Zhou Qingfeng's jaw was full of blood, and the soldiers around him were all stunned. He looked at Kelly who was trying her best, and said indifferently: "I believe you, I believe you are just a victim. But I can only say sorry, I can't keep you here.
By my side."
"I haven't hurt you, I just have two consciousnesses in my body. Please save me." The girl hit Zhou Qingfeng's breastplate hard like a flashback, her eyes showed the last trace of pleading, her head tilted slightly, and the man died.
's arms.
Cyric, who had been watching, finally sighed, "Victor Hugo, you are really capable. I, the chosen one, really fall in love with you. She has even disobeyed my order and just wants to stay with you."
It’s just around me.”
Zhou Qingfeng closed his eyes slightly, feeling inexplicably sad, "You and I, humans and gods, have to die. I believe you will not give in easily, and I will not give up my life either."
At this moment, the city gate of Dense Fog City suddenly opened, and a large number of slaves poured out like a tide. In the blink of an eye, there were hundreds, and there were endless ones behind.
Zhou Qingfeng held the girl's body, ignored his restless subordinates, calmly stared at the enemy, and continued to whisper: "Cyric, I don't want to guess riddles with you anymore. You are the god of murder, and I can't beat you in guessing."
But you are just a god who has fallen from the kingdom of God, and you are only a few steps away from being wiped out. No matter how many plans you make secretly or how many traps you set, I only know that you are not that strong. No matter what cards you play, I will give them to you.
Smash them one by one."
The plane passage opened, and the succubus' laughter followed. A green crystal was thrown into the abyss, and a scroll was obtained in exchange.
