Returning to Hope Town, it was already midnight.
Before getting close, Yue Yang smelled a strong smell of blood coming to his nostrils.
In the darkness, a large group of low-level scavengers came upon hearing the news, their eyes shone with faint green light under the light of the fire. From time to time, quarrels and conflicts broke out, and there were coyote and hyena's unique "cheating" laughter, one after another , echoing each other, terrifying and weird, making people feel creepy. The town was in flames, except for some burning houses, there were countless soldiers patrolling with torches.
All the surviving mercenaries, or civilians, sat on the ground and were surrounded by soldiers.
"Are you survivors?" A burly squad leader of the patrol came out in a row, and asked with some vigilance: "Are there any survivors at the bottom of the valley? What's going on down here?"
"We are all students of Ivy League College, come here to practice." Yue Yang handed over the test application form approved by the college together with the school badge.
"Students from the Great Xia Kingdom?" The team leader frowned. These are students from the Great Xia Kingdom. If they are not handled properly, it will become a serious diplomatic incident of national disputes. After repeated confirmation, he Quickly nodded and asked: "Have you suffered any casualties? No, have you? That's great, you are very lucky! Come, please come here to rest, don't worry, after the rest, we will send you back home as soon as possible. Before that, we hope to get your help, can you tell us about the inhabited camp at the bottom of the valley? Are there any survivors down there?"
"I don't know. They probably all died. We escaped in the anthole. When we came out, everyone was dead. There were still meteors falling from the sky, and the whole valley was in a mess. We were almost killed. Bury!" Yue Yang said a few words lightly.
"It seems that this incident was caused by the golden ant eggs." Ye Kong added.
"Those mercenaries are crazy!" Fatty Hai pretended to be terrified.
"We're coming back to look for our companion. Her name is Yi Nan. We'll be leaving two days later. Please check for us to see if she's already here." Miss Yue Bing was most worried about the safety of sister Yi Nan.
"Very well, thank you for the information you provided. We will record it in your experience and give you extra points! As for your companions, we will follow up. If your companions are still in Hope Town, we will use the fastest speed Bring people to you!" The team leader led Yue Yang and his party to a well-preserved hut, and sent someone to deliver hot water and steamed buns. After registering Yue Yang's and their names, the team leader hurried out up.
About half an hour later, a man dressed as a general opened the door and came in.
The captain respectfully followed behind him, seeing Yue Yang's guarded look, the captain quickly waved his hands: "Students, it's okay, our general just wants to know more about the situation at the bottom of the valley, this matter may not be simple, we need you With the help of Da Xia students, it's fine, everyone sit down and talk!"
The general who used to have a serious face and furrowed brows tried his best to smile: "Students, my name is Ma Xingkong, you can call me Lao Ma."
"General Ma!" Ye Kong and Fatty Hai cooperated tacitly and shouted in unison.
"Your companions don't have any records. They should have been as lucky as you to have escaped this catastrophe, or they may not have come yet. A few students, can you tell me what happened?" The old horse The general stretched out his hand, patted Fatty Hai's shoulder, pretended to be easy-going, and sat directly opposite Yue Yang. He could tell at a glance that in this team, this low-key, masked young man was the backbone .
General Ma didn't doubt his ability to survive a man who had a silver four-level two-headed wolf as a pet.
With him here, it is normal for this team to return safe and sound.
Even though this young man is extremely low-key, the moon blade on his back has exposed the fact that he is a strong man. This is the weapon of the Demon General. There is no weapon store in Longteng Continent that sells this kind of magic weapon...
General Ma knew that if he wanted to know the ins and outs of the whole incident, the young man in front of him might give him the best answer.
Ye Kong took a sip of hot tea, pretended to be very cooperative, and described enthusiastically: "We were practicing and improving in the ant hole, but suddenly we heard the cry for help from the rescue scroll from the depths. We went to rescue them, but the anthole was in chaos, and there were countless red fire ants, which instead trapped us."
"I know best that I am their boss. It was very critical at that time, so I decided to exit the anthole and return to the ground." Fatty Hai looked like I was the boss.
"When we came out to take a look, we found that the mercenaries were crazy, cutting and killing anyone they saw!" He told the tragic scene at that time.
"Later we were also involved in the battle, but fortunately, we found a square rock to hide temporarily." Li Lie nodded.
"What happened next?" General Ma didn't believe what they said, but he felt that what they said was one-sided. The one who really knew the truth was the silent masked boy in front of him. He is the captain of the team, the real boss of the team.
"I didn't come out of the hole, so I don't know the battle situation outside." Yue Yang felt that if he didn't say anything, he couldn't hide from this old General Ma, who was rough on the surface but really careful. Of course, Yue Yang would not tell the story of the battle with Marquis Zijin, but he told what happened in the ant hole at that time: "I entered the ant nest and found a commotion of thousands of ants. In the second layer of the ant nest, countless servants Soldiers fought with red fire ants, and some killed each other... Those mercenaries with golden ant eggs were besieged on a platform, and the situation was very critical. Out of humanitarianism, I went to the rescue and sent them a teleportation scroll , and opened a passage to send those mercenaries into the ant tunnel...their leader is named Zhong Hao, if you find him, then you can prove that I have spoken word for word."
Yue Yang made a test to see if Zhong Hao, the mercenary group, was still alive.
He was 90% sure that Zhong Hao did not survive.
Because if that Zhong Hao was still alive, then General Ma would know that he got a dragon fruit with a hard shell, and he wouldn't ask about the golden ant eggs again, let alone how crazy the mercenaries were.
After hearing this, General Ma paused for a while, and affirmed: "There is indeed a Zhong Hao. He once fled back to Hope Town and asked for help from our garrison soldiers, but then gangsters attacked and all the garrison soldiers died. Howe, and his companions, were also captured by the enemy. Then there was a melee, and the mercenaries seemed to know about the golden ant eggs, and they killed everyone they saw... But I suspect that the enemy cast some kind of crazy Otherwise, the mercenaries would not go crazy for the golden ant eggs to the point of completely losing their minds. What is even more suspicious is that Hope Town and the inhabited camps have been disturbed by some kind of treasure, so they cannot teleport , there are very few escapees... Little classmate, can you talk about the meteor bombing?"
He felt that Yue Yang's team must be related to the meteor bombing incident, maybe the enemy discovered that there were still survivors, and they were powerful, so they summoned the meteor.
In order to cover up the matter of the hard-shelled dragon fruit, Marquis Zijin, Grandma Chi and Pharmacopoeia, Yue Yang decided to throw out the later stage of the battle to attract the attention of General Ma.
He narrated in a calm voice: "When I came out of the turbulent ant nest of thousands of ants, I found that my companions were besieged by the enemy. Among them were two masters of the fifth level and a suzerain of the sixth level. They were hidden in the crowd , encouraged mercenaries to besiege my companions, and later found that I had returned. They summoned anacondas, copper-skinned lions, iron-skinned cheetahs, and a giant mammoth to besiege them. I fell into a bitter fight. Among them, the sixth-level suzerain also summoned five meteors. I interrupted his summoning at a risk. In the end, the meteors turned back and hit them instead. In the end, the mountain peak also collapsed. When we woke up from the stun, they had already I was picked up by my companions in the sky... There are many flying war beasts in the sky, at least two hundred of them, all of them left after the meteor hit the valley."
"Can you tell us about the appearance of the suzerain who summoned the meteor?" General Ma frowned.
He could tell that although the young man's description was simple, it didn't look like he was lying.
If there really was a sixth-level suzerain who participated in this matter and summoned meteors to kill people, then things would be complicated.
This matter will be ten times more serious than imagined.
Yue Yang also heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, he knew that General Ma would no longer doubt or pay attention to his experience in the anthole for the time being, but would put all his attention on the sixth-level suzerain.
This is exactly the little detour Yue Yang made for General Ma to divert his attention.
It seems that this incident was not caused by a certain enemy chasing and killing him.
Since it had nothing to do with him, Yue Yang decided to stay out of it, to be too lazy to manage state affairs and conspiracies and struggles, and it would be better to concentrate on his children's affair.
Old General Ma wanted the appearance of the sixth-level suzerain, Yue Yang was very generous, he described the appearance of the person who summoned Meteor, the appearance of another sixth-level suzerain, and the appearance of the two masters. Yue Yang also pretended not to know that there were two sixth-level suzerains, and only said that the person who summoned the shooting star was a sixth-level junior suzerain, and all the mercenaries called that man 'adult'.
As soon as these words were spoken, General Ma's face immediately changed.
Obviously, General Ma knew the two suzerains, and they were very familiar with them.
"Thank you very much. You uncovered a terrible conspiracy for our Tianluo Kingdom. When we investigate it clearly, we will definitely report it to the Holy Majesty and ask him to give you a special reward. Now, we suspect that the enemy still wants to cover up and obliterate this matter. , please don't leave for the time being, we will call more masters to come, and we will also notify your college instructors to come and pick you up. Of course, don't worry, we will definitely protect your lives, We are an army, and we have this strength!" Before the old General Ma finished speaking, suddenly there was a roar outside, a huge shock wave, the wooden door bounced open, the floor trembled continuously, and the mud and dust on the beams were all over the place. Live and drop.
The alarm sounded extremely sharply.
The anger in General Ma's eyes was like a volcano, almost erupting.
He stood up calmly, before going out, he did not forget to appease Yue Yang and the others: "Don't be afraid, no matter what happens, we have the ability to protect you. You stay indoors for now and don't come out. I'll go out and have a look!"
Yue Yang felt a little inconceivable about this result, Tianluo Kingdom had dispatched troops, and those gangsters dared to launch an attack brazenly
Who are these desperadoes
What shocking secret is hidden in the abyss of despair that makes them do this at all costs
For a moment, great curiosity surged in Yue Yang's heart... Could it be that there are more important things here than golden ant eggs and hard-shelled dragon fruit
