"How disgusting... If I had known earlier, I should have asked them to transfer 30% of the land tax... No! Only 50% is worthy of my visit in person!"
The man in black asked his subordinates to fight off the evil spirit wandering nearby, the disgust and impatience on his face had reached its peak.
"Master of the family... I heard that the empire sent all powerful crown princes this time. Why don't we take advantage of this opportunity to kill the rest of them, so as to establish prestige for Ming Ling to enter the empire!"
The subordinates closest to the man are the retainers of the Situ family. They have served the head of the family for more than a hundred years and can be considered loyal.
"How can things be as simple as you think?" The man's eyes sank, purple phantoms flowed in his pupils, and he easily made the evil spirits who attacked his subordinates turn against each other, and then started fighting each other. The scene suddenly turned into a melee between evil spirits.
.
"The terrain of the ancient battlefield is indeed conducive to my ability to use it, and my ability cannot be used anytime and anywhere without being consumed... It is easy to say that I can kill Mu Yin, but as for the blacksmith, I must capture him alive... Long Ran and Gen Zhi, neither one
It’s easy to mess with! Especially Long Ran... kill him, the only son of the Jade Dragon God Emperor, just think of the consequences!"
This retainer has served him for many years and has no regard for world affairs. He is used to being domineering in his own family. Do you really think that a merchant family started from the demon clan can confront the forces of the empire head-on?
"The master of the house has taught you the right lesson! Your subordinates will never speak arrogantly again in the future!"
Situ Mi used some demon power to shake off the bloody smell from his body. His precious body had been in the greenhouse for a long time. Although he was not considered delicate, he really didn't want to stay in such a dirty place for too long.
When he arrived in person this time, he had already brought his retainers and troops to the place where the wall of Blood City was no more than a hundred feet long. So far, no one has approached here.
No one can lead a group of people to such a hinterland without any casualties!
And Situ Mi is the head of the family after all, and Ming Ling has been in control of the spiritual underground world for many years. In terms of combat effectiveness, it may not be as good as the average big country, but in terms of means...at least it is not half worse than the five empires!
Even if the empire's reinforcements want to enter here without being damaged at all, the God Emperor can't do it!
It's not because of the strength of the combat power, but because fighting here is bound to be affected by blood energy, not to mention that now that Qiongqi's seal is loose and more and more energy is escaping, the reason why a large number of mercenaries are allowed to enter at this time is,
On the one hand, it is to prevent their family’s power from being affected——
On the other hand, it is also because of the distortion of Qiongqi and blood energy that these guys with evil intentions can be amplified.
The battlefield not far behind him was full of murderous intent, blood and flesh were flying everywhere, screams and cries were endless, it could be described as chaos.
On the other hand, they can be said to be quite calm and relaxed.
Situ Mi only led a team of dozens of people. Although it was not many, it was attacked by evil spirits. But as long as the head of the family was in charge, these evil spirits would at best wander around the periphery. Once they came forward, they would enter the control range of the magic pupil.
...No matter what your cultivation level was during your lifetime, you will be completely shaken mentally and use your backhand to eliminate the evil spirits next to you.
These monsters don't have much sense of companionship to begin with, and are much easier to provoke than ordinary monsters.
Naturally, the magic eyes only need to be released a little, and they can enter the ancient battlefield unimpeded.
"They're all rubbish! The battle circle is maintained by a few young guys, and an army of nearly ten thousand people still can't break through!"
Several subordinates did not say much, and their hearts were filled with turmoil.
Among the five empires, Shenyan did not send troops, and the remaining four only sent one reinforcement as an advance...
Situ Mi had known this information for a long time, but in order to make the mercenaries go to the front line without any worries, he naturally did not choose to tell it.
The more people who die, the better! Qiongqi's seal will become looser as the death energy increases, and he will be more confident when he seeks out those demon believers to collect benefits!
But he probably didn't expect that the three extra reinforcements, just three, would completely thwart the army he sent.
Mu Yin and the mysterious forger, as well as the citizens and soldiers of Blood City who are almost cannon fodder... it is absolutely impossible to stop all the mercenaries!
For no reason, because they were overwhelming in terms of numbers, and these two people had no means to confront or stop the army.
"After all, these miscellaneous mercenaries are too useless! So what if there are three more people? Among them, only Regent Qingming can stop most of them, but no one has gone deep under the city wall so far. Could it be that all of those reinforcements are
Mu Yin’s strength?”
If Mu Yin had the fighting power of one against a thousand, there would be no need to fight, he wouldn't offer a sky-high reward at all!
Mu Yin could make Ming Ling take such a big risk and pay a huge price. Even the head of the family came here to ensure that Mu Yin was killed, even though Situ Mi's fundamental purpose was to cause chaos for the blacksmith.
But if it was just to capture the blacksmith, he wouldn't come to this disgusting place!
"Master, we are about to arrive near the city defense barrier. Our aura mask may not be able to maintain it at the edge of the barrier!"
The subordinate responsible for opening the road looked serious and reminded Situ Mi in a low voice.
But he just yawned and continued to sit on the soft chair carried by the bearer——
"It doesn't matter, let them find out that the entire army is resisting the mercenaries at the entrance of the city. I want to see who else has the spare time to greet us~~"
At the observation deck on the side of the city wall, a sergeant had seen the sudden appearance of Hades through a telescope.
The barrier of the Blood City will block the view within the barrier, and the outside world cannot observe or influence it. On the contrary, the soldiers in the city can use special telescopes to penetrate the blood energy and observe the situation outside the city.
"How could it be...that side is where the evil spirits are the strongest and most powerful!!"
As soldiers who have been stationed in the Blood City for many years, the sergeant in charge of the lookout has already had a clear grasp of the nearby terrain. Now this group of people came straight from the most dangerous place, and even within sight, no evil spirits came forward.
stop!
what happened?!
This was a situation that no one expected. Even Qingxuan ignored this place when he arranged the puppets.
The east side of the city wall is a dangerous place. It is difficult for vehicles, horses and people to pass. There are no controllable birds on the ancient battlefield, so there is no need to arrange puppets.
The west side was where the fiercest battles broke out on the battlefield, and more than a million soldiers died in battle, plus the number of people who died suddenly on the road over the years, and the level of danger was comparable to the natural dangers to the east.
Natural dangers can still be overcome with perseverance, but evil spirits are entrenched along the way, and if you are not careful, you will die!
"Quick...quickly inform the city lord!!"
He said this in a somewhat depressed tone. The city lord is now leading everyone to maintain the defense line in front of the city gate, and all the reinforcements are also fighting. How can there be any way to take care of this place?
His intuition told him that this group of people must not have just used special means to get here...
One person's sneaking might be explained in this way, but there are more than ten people on the other side!
The anger of more than a dozen people was enough to make the evil spirits on the road riot!
Although they cannot condense into a real body, the brutality and fighting will engraved deep in their souls will make evil spirits instinctively attack all creatures that appear in front of them!
It is indeed possible to sneak alone! They have discovered it before, so a special substance has been added to the barrier of Blood City to make these methods ineffective——
Indeed, the opponent did not continue to hide his figure... Thousands of mercenaries rushed here, and there were already countless casualties. Now, only dozens of people from the opponent are approaching the city wall!
Especially the graceful man sitting on the soft sedan chair. He obviously knew that his aura was exposed and could no longer hide it, but he still remained calm and composed...
Thinking of this, the soldier standing on the observation deck picked up the telescope again. He wanted to confirm the number of people on the other side!
That man should be extremely strong, but we cannot rule out the possibility that there are other strong men in the team!
His eyes followed the lens and locked onto Situ Mi in the team. He blinked and the man's handsome and evil face appeared in the focused field of view.
Just when the sergeant was about to continue looking at the others, the man suddenly opened his eyes, staring at him as if through a layer of blood and a barrier that blocked perception!
A pair of strange purple pupils seemed to seize the opportunity to look into his heart. With just one glance, the sergeant lost his consciousness, but soon returned to normal.
"You! No need to inform!"
The messenger who had just walked not far away was called back again, and he looked at the commander with some confusion.
"Didn't you say that you need to notify the city lord? Isn't it an enemy attack?"
"No..." the lookout soldier turned around, his eyes flashing with a frightening purple light, "You never have to go!"
The short knife pierced his heart, and the orderly soldier looked in disbelief at this comrade who had been with him for many years, and fell to the ground.
"Why……"
Just after he stabbed his comrade to death, the lookout soldier drew out his dagger, pointed it at his heart, and stabbed him in again.
"Master? Are you feeling unwell?"
The closest steward jumped onto the soft sedan to help Situ Mi, who was a little dazed. He just waved his hand and asked people to leave, shook his head, and soon regained his clarity.
"No problem, there is something about this barrier. I just wanted to control the peeping soldier with the soul-obsessing technique, but I didn't expect that the barrier was solidified. I only gave him an order and I couldn't continue to maintain contact..."
Soul-catching is an ability of the Demon Eye. It is much more expensive than provoking evil spirits when rushing on the road. Using Soul-catching through the barrier, the consumption is almost dozens of times!
But he still achieved his goal. At least the soldier opposite and the person who wanted to pass the order were killed, and no one would come to hinder them for the time being.
"The barrier is a bit special. Just pour the spirit-melting water you are carrying on top of it. If it is all poured out, the solidification of that layer will probably consume all the spare supplies you are currently carrying..."
The retainers nodded one after another and took off the packages they were carrying. Inside were filled water bladders, each of which was extremely heavy.
The spirit-melting water is ineffective against demons, but it can corrode the spiritual energy and energy in the air. The materials are scarce and the cost is extremely high. One drop is worth ten thousand gold, but each of them carries a big bag. There are dozens of people, and everyone has a ration.
, Ming Ling’s handiwork is not small!
But even though he had so much of this magical water that had miraculous effects on energy barriers, Situ Mi still made the decision to use it all at once.
This amount of melted spirit water is more than enough to eliminate the barrier of the Imperial City! This shows how terrifying the barrier solidified by the Blood City Lord's family has been for generations!
