Qianye stopped suddenly, and the feeling of being followed all along disappeared at this moment. Qianye frowned, feeling a little annoyed in his heart: "Why are they so impatient?"
In the wilderness, it is not uncommon for hunters to spend days tracking their prey. In this hunting game, Qianye showed his flaws several times, but the opponent didn't take the bait, obviously he was also a master hunter. What Qianye was worried about was that besides those two, there were hidden strong men. If it was just to deal with the two of them, then as long as Dongyue was in hand and Qianye broke out with all his strength, he could let the knight know that the so-called "unbreakable shield" was just bragging.
In any case, getting rid of the stalker behind him is still a relief. Qianye has always wanted to find the best time to counter-kill his opponent, so he procrastinated until now. After all, this is a hired war, and Qianye doesn't want to be injured or take too many risks if it is not necessary.
His achievements in the past few days, when added together, are worth a dream eater, and he is already worthy of Su Ding, after all, the war has just begun.
But for the next day, apart from picking up two lone enemy fighters, Qianye didn't encounter a decent team, nor did he encounter a lone strongman. The battlefield suddenly became unusually quiet, as quiet as if no life had ever appeared.
All veterans who have been on the battlefield know that such a quiet battlefield must not be a good thing. Qianye stopped wandering around, chose a place with a good view, hid it, quietly observed and waited for the change to come.
Changes appear at dawn.
Qianye, who was originally sitting peacefully, was suddenly awakened by the shaking of the ground. The vibration was fine and rhythmic. As a veteran hunter, Qianye judged that the vibration originated from more than ten kilometers away. Being so far away, being able to transmit the vibration to this place immediately made Qianye's heart tremble.
The vibration is slowly increasing, which means that the source is approaching. Qianye didn't move, and restrained his breath to the extreme. At this time, maybe the opponent's strong man will appear on the battlefield soon, or there may already be a transcendent real strong man who is scanning the earth. If it is discovered at this time, the end will not be very good.
As the vibration became more and more intense, at the end of the horizon, a row of black figures broke through the fog of night and appeared in Qianye's field of vision.
It was a group of soldiers in heavy armor, walking in the direction of Lingang City with uniform steps. This group of warriors is extremely tall, each one is three meters high, their upper body is humanoid, and their lower body is short and fat insect body. It looked somewhat similar to the Nerubian, but instead of eight jointed legs supporting its lower body, it had four thick elephant legs.
The soldiers carried all the heavy weapons in their hands, like a machine, walking forward at a constant speed.
After one row, there was another row, and in the blink of an eye, thousands of heavily armored soldiers appeared in front of Qianye, and they continued to walk out of the fog from behind, as if endless.
Qianye even suspected that they were not creatures, but machines. Even a robot puppet can't walk so neatly.
A long cry came from afar, echoing over the wilderness. A gigantic beast with a height of tens of meters appeared on the horizon, walking forward step by step, also heading towards Lingang City. Its pace is very slow, but each step can take more than ten meters, so the speed is not slow.
On the back of the giant beast, armor was laid and a fortress was built. It turned out to be a war beast domesticated by humans.
There was more than one giant beast, and then two more came out of the morning mist.
Behind the giant beast, followed by a dense army. Every step of the giant beast made the ground tremble, and also made the trucks bump up and down. The troop transport truck stubbornly followed the giant beast, and some soldiers seemed to be unable to bear the bumps, so they followed the truck on the ground.
Qianye looked up at the sky, and sure enough, huge airships appeared. These airships are not cutting-edge warships, and their bloated size can only belong to cargo airships. But that's why it's scary, because cargo ships can transport equipment and troops in large quantities.
On the ground and in the sky, a torrent of flesh and steel rolled forward, rushing towards Lingang City. This army marched overnight without resting at all, and could reach the city of Lingang in at most one day. And Lingang City may not know at this moment that a catastrophe is imminent.
Qianye's complexion was also very ugly. He had imagined various situations, even the worst ones, but he never thought that such an army would appear.
In an instant, a thought came to Qianye's mind that Lingang City could no longer be defended.
Whether or not Lingang City can be defended, Qianye doesn't really care, as long as he does his best and is worthy of the reward. But Yetong and Zhu Ji were still in Lingang City. Once the city is broken, anything can happen in the chaos. Qianye didn't look any further, got up quietly, and hurried to Lingang City.
If there is one day to prepare in advance, the situation of Lingang City will be much better. Su Dingqian could at least withdraw the main force from the city ahead of time, deal with the enemy slowly, and trade space for time. In a neutral land, as long as there are strong men and troops, there is no need to worry about territory.
As for the people in the city, it doesn't matter whoever is the lord, it's just that life is better or worse.
Only a hundred kilometers away, it didn't take long for Qianye to see Lingang City. The city was in chaos at the moment, and many people were rushing out of the city gate with their families and luggage, fleeing in all directions.
Seeing this, Qianye knew that the city had received the news that the army was under pressure, and he felt relieved. Some time ago, the people in the city had already evacuated a group, and now this large-scale escape, it is obvious that they know that the enemy army is approaching.
Many people fled the city, but more stayed behind. Most people have confidence in Su Dingqian, after all, he has guarded the city for many years. A god general is like a god in a neutral place.
Qianye entered Lingang City and returned home first.
The small courtyard is like a quiet lake in spring, peaceful and peaceful, and the chaos outside is like two worlds. Zhu Ji was sleeping in the room, while Yetong was reading in the courtyard, but the book in his hand was changed from the brief history of the empire to the geography of the neutral land.
When seeing Yetong, Qianye was in a trance for a moment, as if something had changed in her. But this feeling just passed by for a moment, and when she looked carefully again, she was still the same. Even though the mask could hide her appearance, it couldn't change her posture and demeanor.
"Why, do you look stupid?" Yetong chuckled.
"It's nothing." Qianye shook off the strange feeling from his mind, and said, "There's some bad news. The opponent's army is extremely powerful, and it's not something that Lingang City can resist. I need to tell the city guards about this information. , let them prepare early. You pack up your things and prepare to take Zhu Ji away."
"And you?"
"I promised Su Dinggan to help him defend the city, so I will stay. Don't worry about me. If the situation is not good, I will definitely escape. But you, you have to take Zhu Ji first and find a safe place to hide , I will come to you."
Yetong smiled slightly and said, "A safe place? How can there be a safe place in a neutral place?"
Qianye thought for a while and said, "How about going to Spider Emperor's territory? His place is relatively stable, and there are many human races living there."
Yetong shook his head and said, "No, I'll stay too. If we're together, we can escape even if we face a god general."
Qianye thought for a while, and said, "That's fine, but you'd better stay out of this courtyard as much as possible, and don't take part in the battle."
Hiding Yetong, whose combat power was incomparably different from Qianye's, was a hole card. She is at the expert level no matter whether it is a frontal kill or a stealthy snipe. Without knowing it, it will definitely give the enemy a huge surprise.
Qianye left in a hurry and went to the headquarters of the City Guard Army. In fact, he insisted on staying and defending the city because of the other two dream-eaters that Su Dingqian had promised.
After Qianye left, the corners of Yetong's mouth curved up slightly, revealing an inscrutable smile.
In the combat room, Su Dingqian stood with his hands behind his back, his face ashen. In front of him, Liu Daoming, Su Yueyuan and several remaining city guard generals had all arrived, all with worried faces.
"Tell me, what should we do now?" Su Dingqian asked.
All the people below looked at each other in blank dismay, all in great embarrassment. In the end, Liu Daoming stood up and said bravely, "My lord, for the present plan, leaving Lingang City is the best policy."
"Leave? I came here and never left!" Su Dingqian's voice contained thunder.
However, Liu Daoming has a deep relationship with him, so he can still talk at this time, and continued: "My lord, the only thing valuable in Lingang City is the ground dragon. How can there be anything valuable in the city? It's just a burden. As long as you are here and we are here, when will a city fail to come back?"
Su Dinggan frowned and remained silent. At this time, Su Yueyuan also said: "Father, for an army of this size, the three families must have united. We have no way to resist. Let them go here first, and after they lose their target, maybe Will fight on its own."
Su Dingqian snorted, and said, "Frivolity! Now I don't know how they got together. How do you know that they will fight among themselves after they get Lingang City?"
Su Dingqian's eyes flickered, and he struggled repeatedly in his heart. When Liu Daoming saw it, he knew that he was hesitating whether to fight with all his strength. Among the generals, although Su Dingqian's original strength is average, he is famous for his strong combat power. Even in the face of the enemy army, after a big battle, he is sure to evacuate. But the problem is that after the First World War, except for a few high-level powerhouses such as Liu Daoming, the rest of them may be wiped out.
People like Su Dingqian only consider gains and losses, not casualties. In the neutral land, there are many subordinates and strong men who are willing to attach themselves to the king, and there is no shortage at all.
Liu Daoming was anxious, thought for a while, and said, "My lord, maybe the other party came here for the earth dragon."
"Dragon!" Su Dingqian suddenly realized. He has always been in Lingang City, and has never thought of a dragon, so he didn't think about it at first. At this moment, being reminded by Liu Daoming, he immediately sneered and said, "Their hearts are really big!"
