Although the magic weapon is extremely exquisite, and because of the different rules, the refining principles are also quite different from the alchemy in the Holy Court Continent, but Mu Hanyan's understanding of the rules is even better than that of the master of the Tianjin Palace. , After repeated deliberation and drills, after pondering some experience, they began to refine.
The void-breaking talisman has been completed by one-third so far. Although it is getting more and more difficult, Mu Hanyan's alchemy skills are also constantly improving. Maybe it won't take long for this void-breaking talisman to be refined. At that time, Baby Ling should leave the Holy Court Continent.
"Thank you." Baby Ling took a deep look at Mu Hanyan, lowered his head and continued to eat, but his movements were much slower. It seemed that every time he put down his chopsticks, he felt a strong sense of reluctance.
After eating, everyone went to the guest room to rest. Yue Xiuming just made fun of himself, he was a little sulky, and he didn't want to make things difficult for them anymore.
This kind of mountain town is not as prosperous as the capital city, and soon after nightfall, the town is quiet.
"Ah..." There was a shrill scream in the night sky, and then there was a mess of warning gongs, as well as the panicked shouts of the crowd, and torches were lit everywhere in the town, but the lights were brightly lit.
Mu Hanyan walked out of the room quickly, Huayue and Zirong were already guarding the door.
Yue Xiuming, Zeng Wenxin and others stood at the stairs and asked the shopkeeper below, "What happened?"
"Small one, I don't know too much about the small one, it's probably another strange beast attacking the city." The shopkeeper replied calmly.
Practitioners from all over the Holy Court Continent will go to the Longyan Mountains to practice. It is common to kill alien beasts. Many people even rely on hunting alien beasts or stealing alien beast eggs to make huge profits, and alien beasts are not low in wisdom. If they are annoyed, they will fight back crazily. In the remote towns near the Longyan Mountains, strange beasts often attack the city.
This small town is located in the Longyan Mountains, and such things are commonplace, so the shopkeeper is not worried at all.
"Strange beasts attack the city, let's go, let's go and have a look." Yue Xiuming said excitedly.
"My lord's body is a thousand pieces of gold, you must never put yourself in danger, just leave this kind of matter to the soldiers in the town to deal with it." Zeng Wenxin quickly persuaded.
The last time Yue Xiuming fought the "slate pig" recklessly, he was so scared that he broke into a cold sweat, for fear that he would run away to kill himself on the spur of the moment.
"Master Zeng, as the imperial guards, it is our bounden duty to protect our home and country. Wouldn't it be chilling for the common people to stand by and watch at this time?" Yue Xiuming said displeasedly, his face darkened.
"But the task His Majesty gave is..." Zeng Wenxin continued to persuade.
"The general is outside, and the king's life is not accepted. Haven't you heard of it? Besides, you haven't seen other people's strengths. They need our protection?" Yue Xiuming said coldly, obviously still talking to Mu A few days ago, Han Yan was still brooding over the fact that she had taken her "credit".
After finishing speaking, Yue Xiuming ordered Li Dingfeng to summon the sergeants, and ran towards the gate of the town with great interest, without even looking at Zeng Wenxin.
Zeng Wenxin looked helplessly and looked at Mu Hanyan apologetically. As a citizen of Shangyue, he certainly didn't have a good impression of An Yunguo, but he had a duty to do, so he couldn't be as rude as Yue Xiuming.
"Let's go, let's go and have a look too." Mu Hanyan didn't take it seriously, and walked towards the gate of the city with Huayue and others.
Torches have been lit everywhere in the town, and the lights above the city tower are brightly lit.
Although the town is not big, it is extremely solidly built, and the city wall is even ten feet high. If you only look at the city wall, it is not much worse than some county towns. It's no wonder that mountain towns like this are often used as military fortresses during wartime, and are naturally much stronger than ordinary cities.
On the city wall, a gray-haired old man was wearing a dilapidated battle armor and wielding a long sword. He was directing a dozen soldiers under him to shoot swords with bows. This is the town lord of the town. When he came to visit Yue Xiuming tremblingly, Mu Hanyan saw him go upstairs, but he didn't speak. I'm too lazy to make fun of myself.
Naturally, there are not many soldiers stationed in such a small town in the mountains, and there are no more than twenty people in total. Of course, it is difficult to defend a city by relying on them. with a longbow.
It was only then that Mu Hanyan realized that it was true that all the people in Shangyue Kingdom were good at martial arts. These people were old and young, men and women, and their strength was not bad. The strongest was about the ninth-level swordsman, and the weakest was the fifth-level swordsman.
With the trembling of the bowstring, countless sharp arrows shot towards the bottom of the city wall like lightning, and then there were screams of beasts.
Mu Hanyan also stood on the tower at this time, and saw thousands of strange beasts rushing towards the city wall one after another, including the wind boar, one-horned goat and so on.
The strength of these alien beasts is obviously not strong. Facing the condescending arrow rain of the swordsmen, there is not much power to resist. Every time the arrow rain falls, a scarlet mist will erupt from the city, and the alien beasts are dying. Helpless whine.
"Hahahaha, these stupid beasts really don't have a brain, they rushed up to die one after another." Yue Xiuming laughed.
Next to him, the city lord looked serious and said nothing, as if he was thinking about something.
Mu Hanyan frowned as she looked at the strange beast rushing up to die like a moth to a flame.
She has also heard about the strange beasts attacking the city. These strange beasts are not as stupid and brainless as Yue Xiuming imagined. They usually retreat quickly if they don't take advantage of it. They will never rush to die like this.
"My lord, the situation seems to be a little bit wrong." Mu Hanyan was secretly wondering, when he heard the old city lord next to him say with a little worry.
"What's wrong?" Yue Xiuming asked nonchalantly.
"In the past, when alien beasts attacked the city, they usually retreated after several attacks. Why did they rush forward and die like crazy today." The old city lord said, but it was the same as Mu Hanyan thought.
"Oh? I thought these strange beasts were so stupid that they were not afraid of death." Yue Xiuming said curiously.
"No, no, although these strange beasts are not high-level, they are much smarter than adults imagined. This is the first time I have seen this kind of situation after guarding here for many years. There must be some weirdness in it," said the old city lord.
"What's weird?" Yue Xiuming felt like asking the bottom line.
"The old man can't figure it out, but there must be a reason for it." The old city owner shook his head and said.
"Ha... I see." Yue Xiuming said suddenly, patting his head.
"Oh? My lord, please clarify." Everyone around him looked at him suspiciously.
Mu Hanyan also turned her head curiously. She couldn't figure out the reason for this, but she didn't know what kind of opinion this playful little prince had.
