A quarter of an hour after Li Deshang left the city gate with a group of musketeers, several black figures came near the city gate.
They leaned in the shadows of the streets and looked at the city wall.
"What's going on?"
"Why are there so many patrols?"
"And muskets!"
A figure frowned and asked in a low voice.
Several people around him looked at each other, obviously not knowing what happened.
"Go check it out."
The person who spoke first said.
"Yes, Altar Master."
After a few people nodded in agreement, they quickly dived into the night.
The only leader left was looking at the gate of the mountain city with twinkling eyes.
He has been preparing for a long time!
Don't make any mistakes!
The leader thought silently.
After a while, several figures returned.
One of them spoke very fast, in a low voice, but clearly enough: "Altar Master, there was a conflict between the Jinsha Gang and the Yamen people at the dock, and the officers and soldiers became alert."
"Sands Gang?"
The leader was startled.
He knew about this human trafficking gang.
But I haven't had any dealings with him.
At first he thought the other party was just a rat in the gutter.
I didn't expect that I would have the courage to fight the Yamen head-on.
If I had known this earlier, I should have cooperated.
However, there is no regret medicine in the world.
It's too late to say anything now.
"The conflict between the Jinsha Gang and the Yamen is also a good thing. Although the officers and soldiers at the city gate began to be alert, the number of people was reduced, especially the firearms camp, which was less than half of the people."
"As long as we are fast enough and take down the city gate, the church members outside will be able to attack, and then the church members in the city will respond accordingly."
"Our Lady comes to this world and will be reborn in bliss!"
The leader chanted in a low voice.
"Our Lady comes to this world and will be reborn in bliss!"
The remaining people sang together.
Everyone's breath becomes feverish with such chanting.
They stared at the brightly lit city gate, the light blooming in their eyes like hungry wolves.
Then, there was no hesitation.
Everyone except the altar owner went to the city gate to touch.
All of them are agile in body and dexterous in movement.
Obviously, they have all been trained and are very skilled.
The leader, who was called the Altar Master, stood in the shadows and watched.
until--
"Who?"
A loud shout came from the city gate.
Several followers of the 'Pursuant Religion' who kept approaching the city gate did not stop when they heard such loud shouts, but instead sped up.
"Fire the arrow!"
Whoosh whoosh!
With an order, several followers of the 'Pursuant Rebirth' were immediately shot into hedgehogs.
However, these people did not die.
They are still alive.
Even, still moving.
"Our Lady comes to this world and will be reborn in bliss!"
Several people kept talking and kept approaching the city gate.
The soldiers at the city gate and under the city gate were horrified.
Especially under the city gate, the soldiers holding spears, whose number was clearly more than ten times larger, were constantly retreating at this time.
"Go, teach afterlife."
The soldier stammered.
They have also heard about this sect.
I heard it was very strange, and now it really looks like this.
"What are you afraid of?"
"A bunch of pretentious guys!"
A commander sneered.
He had just seen with his own eyes that when the arrows fell, these "Pursuant Rebirth" believers stuffed things into their mouths.
It is nothing more than a strong medicine that relieves pain and makes you tireless.
It seems very powerful at the moment, but once the drug wears off?
Life is worse than death!
He had seen such tricks on some people who were running around in the world, so it was not surprising.
'The time has come to make great achievements!'
With this thought in mind, the general hurriedly climbed to the city gate and shouted to the stunned soldiers.
"Fire the arrow!"
"Keep shooting arrows!"
"Where's the Musketeer?"
"shot!"
At the city gate, the general shouted loudly and woke up the surrounding soldiers.
The arrow fell again.
Muskets also fired one after another.
Bang bang bang!
After a cloud of smoke rose, several followers of the Rebirth Cult under the city wall fell to the ground and could not get up again.
The boss sneered again.
Although strong medicine is a gun, it still has its limits.
Once the limit is exceeded, no one can escape.
However, why do these ‘Pursuant Rebirth’ believers come to the city gate in the middle of the night?
The general had doubts in his heart and stared solemnly at the corpses of several 'Pursuant Rebirth' believers below. Then, he subconsciously looked further into the city.
It was so dark that I couldn't see clearly at all.
'Only a few people?'
'still?'
The boss was thinking about it, and suddenly, he seemed to react.
He turned around and looked outside the city gate.
Outside the dark city gate, there was silence, not a single sound.
It's completely different from the previous atmosphere of insect chirping.
"Notice……"
boom!
The reminder sound stopped suddenly.
A fireball the size of a basketball suddenly shot out of the darkness and hit the boss accurately.
Then the explosion sounded.
This guy was always blown to pieces.
"God's punishment!"
"The Holy Mother of Death has sent down a heavenly punishment!"
"The boss is dead!"
"Death without a whole body!"
The sound first came from under the city wall, and then spread quickly. After just a few breaths, such a sound was heard all over the city wall, and the entire city gate became even more chaotic.
The altar master who took advantage of the chaos and approached the city gate carefully put away his staff and looked at the chaotic city gate with a flash of pride in his eyes.
Everything was just as he expected.
As long as he shows his 'divine power'.
Then everything will be solved.
Now?
Naturally, the city gate is opened.
With this thought in mind, the altar owner quickly approached the threshold.
A mountain town is a small town.
The moat outside the gate is much more decorative than practical. Even people who know how to swim can jump over without lowering the suspension bridge. On the contrary, the gate is heavy and it is a real defense.
As soon as the city gate is opened, everything will be settled.
With this thought in mind, the altar owner held the threshold with both hands and prepared to lift it down.
This is not difficult for him.
When he was practicing martial arts in his early years, he passed the 'muscles' test.
Although this threshold is as thick as an adult's waist and weighs more than a thousand pounds, it is not lifted, only a corner is lifted.
He is confident that he can do it.
But just as he was raising his arms vigorously, a huge palm suddenly pressed on the threshold.
Behind him, the flames in the brazier crackled.
When light and darkness intertwined, a huge shadow enveloped the altar owner.
Subconsciously, the altar owner looked over.
A burly man in iron armor was looking down at him.
"you?"
Bang!
Just as the altar leader was about to speak, he was punched in the face.
The whole person flew out sideways.
thump.
After a heavy landing, the altar leader spat out a mouthful of teeth that were alive with blood, and raised his hand to take out his staff.
This was given to him by a senior brother in the main altar when he became the altar master.
It allows him to control flames and has infinite power.
It was precisely because of this staff that he completely gave up the so-called martial arts practice.
No matter how high your martial arts skills are, can you withstand flames?
When the flames burn, isn't it also a charred corpse?
"Go to hell!"
The altar leader shouted and took out his staff.
But before he could activate the staff, the staff was snatched away by the strong man in iron armor.
"Don't touch my 'food' at will."
The strong man said coldly.
"Give it back!"
The altar leader was shocked and stood up to fight for it, but was kicked in the waist by Jason.
The whole person flew out again.
Jason controlled the force very well.
The altar leader completely lost his mobility and happened to fall at Li Deshang's feet.
"Um?"
"Chen Jin?!"
Under the light of the torch, the surrounding area was bright, and Li Deshang clearly saw the true face of the altar leader of the 'Pursuant Rebirth Cult'. Even though it was bruised and swollen, Li Deshang instantly called out the other person's name.
Shancheng, the boss of the Chen family.
After confirmation, Li Deshang was so angry that his face turned pale.
The second son of the Chen family is a human trafficker.
The boss of the Chen family organized a cult.
Presumably the third child of the Chen family is not a good person either.
They're all bastards who deserve a thousand cuts.
"Jia Youcai."
"Push the person down for me and keep a close eye on him."
"I will give him a good trial later."
Li Deshang ordered and turned to look at Jason.
Suddenly, a smile appeared on Li Deshang's face.
Very sincere.
Although he couldn't see clearly just now, Li Deshang knew clearly that if it weren't for Jason, the city gate would have been opened by now.
What will happen if the city gate is opened?
Most civilians are probably fine.
But, him?
There is absolutely no way to escape death.
Moreover, it was the kind of death that was extremely miserable.
There is absolutely no one left in his house, old or young.
Thinking of this, Li Deshang looked at Jason with even more gratitude.
Just now I felt that Jason wanted 50% for the Chen family, which was a bit excessive.
However, now it seems that it is not excessive at all.
It's good value for money.
Right!
Chen family!
Damn the Chen family!
When he thought of the Chen family, Li Deshang immediately gritted his teeth. He now wanted to confiscate the Chen family, but his anger did not make Li Deshang completely confused.
He knows what is most important now.
"Brother Mu, come with me to go up to the city wall and take a look?"
Li Deshang asked with his hands raised.
"good."
Faced with the invitation, Jason did not refuse at all.
His fingers were gently stroking his recent harvest.
It's really, really surprising.
He didn't expect that he would find another food source so quickly.
Although the fragrance is not as good as that of 'Tiger Blood Zhuangyuan Powder', it's just a little bit better.
'In this dungeon world, there are not only secret medicines, but also some mysterious props that can be turned into food!'
With such speculation, Jason was in a good mood.
Naturally, he wouldn't mind having more 'contact' with forces that possess such 'mysterious tools'.
On the city wall, looking down.
The moat, which is more than five meters wide, flows continuously.
The suspension bridge has long been hung high.
The braziers that were supposed to be lit on both sides had been extinguished at some point, leaving the city gate completely plunged into darkness. Even with the many torches on the city wall, it was impossible to see clearly what was going on below.
Li Deshang is not a fool.
The scene just now had already told him what happened.
The ‘Purana Cult’ wants to seize the city!
This is no small matter.
This is a rebellion!
"Attention all archers!"
Li Deshang gave instructions in a low voice, and then said in an even lower voice to the soldiers on the side: "Throw the torches down five meters apart."
Hoo, ho!
The lit torch fell down the city wall in a daze, and the flames constantly rubbed against the air, making bursts of shouts.
Likewise, the darkness is also dispelled.
people!
There are hundreds of people, just like this in the moat.
"shoot!"
Li Deshang gave the order.
Whoosh whoosh!
Arrows rained down like rain, and people in the moat fell down one after another. Scarlet red suddenly filled the air, and corpses floated on it.
"Dog officer!"
"The Holy Mother of God will punish you from heaven!"
The sound came from across the moat.
Also coming with it were three fireballs.
It was very sudden, with no warning.
Moreover, it is different from Chen Jin's fireball.
These three fireballs are larger.
Colors are brighter.
The power is naturally greater!
When the three fireballs landed on the city wall, the solid city wall seemed to have been shelled, with stone debris flying and figures flying around.
Boom, boom, boom!
Three roars rang in his ears. Li Deshang, who was pushed to the ground by Jason, could not react at all. He was filled with tinnitus. When he came to his senses, he saw a bunch of burned archers around him.
But Jason, who saved his life, was long gone.
After shaking his dizzy head, Li Deshang got up.
Immediately, he saw several torn corpses.
This was directly hit by the fireball.
There is no doubt that there is no way to save it.
hiss!
Li Deshang took a breath.
He also knew about the 'Purana Cult', but before, he only thought that the 'Purana Cult' was just like some previous sects, fooling the people in the countryside and taking the opportunity to pocket some money.
But now it seems that is not the case at all.
It's not just about capturing the city.
There are also some evil methods.
Immediately, Li Deshang became worried.
However, the reaction is not slow.
"Carry all the injured people down. I will ask people to do their best to treat them. The dead people will be given double pensions. If you have parents, wives and children at home, I will provide for your parents until they die, and I will support their wives and children."
Li Deshang shouted loudly.
The effect is immediate.
The chaotic soldiers around him immediately calmed down.
"Now, take up your weapons and don't let the thieves enter the city!"
Li Deshang said while the iron was hot.
When the archers and musketeers began to attack again, Li Deshang quietly leaned against the female wall and looked out.
He looked for Jason again.
Although Jason didn't say where he was going, Li Deshang believed that his brother must have left the city.
There's no reason, it's just intuition.
In fact, this is also true.
Moat, the other side.
Five men stood there on war horses.
Three in front, two in back.
"Brother, this mountain city is on defense and cannot be taken down."
The person on the left in the front row said.
"Chen Jin is really bad at things."
The one on the right in the front row is more direct, and will take the blame first and then talk about it later.
Such words were unanimously recognized by the five people.
The man called Senior Brother nodded repeatedly.
"Chen Jin ruined our big event."
"Nothing can be done now, let's leave first."
With that said, he turned his horse's head and prepared to leave.
However, behind them, a tall, burly figure stood there at some point, scanning them with a strange gaze that made them shudder.
