The city square of Ash City was crowded with people and bustling with people.
"Why should we follow a man from the past? Although he is a king, he is not our king!"
"Yes! He may die suddenly. What should we do then?"
"The old city lord died, and the Nightingale City lord betrayed the Black Sun Empire and switched to some ghost country. Did she ask us if we agreed?"
"We can't let her do whatever she wants. She must have feelings for that dragon. She will kill us!"
"Staying here will only lead to death. We should get out of here!"
"What are you waiting for? Let's go. If you don't leave, you will be dead!"
Some vented their dissatisfaction, some waited and watched, some left, and some remained silent.
This was the reaction received from the people of Ash City after Nightingale announced that she would join the Ghost Kingdom. Ash City, which was originally relatively peaceful, fell into chaos because of this news.
"Everyone, be quiet! Hear about me!" Nightingale roared.
Her voice echoed in the city square, but no one listened to her, and the scene remained noisy.
Nightingale glanced at Xia Lei, who was standing next to her. Her eyes were full of pain and helplessness, "Dragon King, I did what you said, but now... what should I do? I can't face the Lord of Guye City. The undead."
Xia Lei said: "Didn't you observe?"
Nightingale was stunned for a moment, "What are you observing?"
Xia Lei said: "The people who take the lead in opposing you are the nobles and officials in this city. They live a comfortable life and do not want to make any changes. Of course they are not willing to announce that Ash City will join the Ghost Kingdom. It is also very difficult for them to take the lead in opposing you. Normal. And those who left were wealthy businessmen. They were worried that the war would destroy their property, so it was normal to leave Ashes City with their property and family members."
"How can I still have the energy to observe these? The city is in such chaos now, how can we deal with the army of Hades? And..." There is also Diallo, who is known as the God of Death. She can't speak out because of fear.
Xia Lei said: "As a leader, you can't expect to meet all needs, and you can't expect everyone to support you. Now is the time to see clearly who supports you. You can't keep those who are leaving. Even if you keep them, they will oppose you in the future, so why would you force yourself to keep some people who may betray you at any time?"
Nightingale was slightly moved. She had never heard such words before.
Xia Lei continued: "Let those who should leave and those who want to leave leave, and let those who are loyal to you and regard Ash City as their home stay. The population of Ash City will indeed decrease, but it will be better managed and developed. .As for the army and Diaro in Hades that you are worried about, leave those guys to me. I said I would protect you and the City of Ashes, and I will definitely do it."
Nightingale finally felt relieved and nodded. She also felt that big things would be solved easily in the hands of the man next to her. She was unaware that as her dependence on Xia Lei became deeper and deeper, Xia Lei left more and more things in her heart.
"Let me say a few words?" Xia Lei said.
Nightingale nodded, "You are my king, you can do whatever you want."
Xia Lei walked in front of Nightingale, paused briefly, then opened his mouth and said: "People and soldiers of Ash City, please be quiet-"
His voice resounded throughout the city, shaking everyone's eardrums like a heavy drum. Those who were close to him even covered their ears. The entire square and even the entire city fell silent.
Xia Lei continued: "Because of Dialuo's unfair ruling, all the Ash City soldiers who participated in the battle of the Northwest Blood Crystal Mine will be sent to Hades as slaves and become Dialuo's food. I believe that many of the people present will Everyone will lose your sons, your husbands, and your friends. And your Nightingale City Lord, a woman who values Ash City more than her life, will be beheaded. I can also predict your future. , even if 200,000 Ash City soldiers are willing to sacrifice themselves to give you a chance to live, the Blood City Lord of Lava City will not let you go. You may still live for a few years, but is that meaningful? You can’t bear to watch. Are your children, your husbands and your friends being eaten as food?"
The whole square was silent.
Some people are moved, some are hesitant, some are disdainful, and some are hostile.
"I will not hide the problems that Ash City is facing now. An army of half a million people from the past in Hades is marching to Ash City. As for whether Diallo will come, I can't be sure. I can only tell you I promise that as long as I am here, no enemy can step into Ashes City. I only say this much. If you are willing to leave, the Nightingale City Lord and I will never stop you. If you are willing to stay, I will provide you with the protection you deserve. .”
After a short silence.
"Oh my God, half a million troops, can we hold it?"
"The army formed by people in the past alone is half a million. If we add the army of Hades, and if Diaro, the God of Death, comes to Ashes City... I can't imagine what the consequences will be!"
"I don't believe that a foreigner will provide us with any protection. I will not stay and die!"
"Leave? Can you leave? Diallo, the God of Death, will not let anyone go who disobeys him!"
"That's better than staying here. You can stay here and wait for death. I have to leave anyway!"
More people left.
Some people stayed. With no money and the status of a fugitive, what can I do if I leave here? There is no way to escape death in the end, so it is better to stay and fight to the death! Fight for a chance of survival!
A few hours later.
City Lord's Mansion.
"City Lord, almost half of the people have left. The remaining ones are almost all soldiers and their families, as well as some poor people who have no money." A general reported the situation to Nightingale.
Nightingale smiled bitterly, "I thought the entire Ash City would support me, but I didn't expect that half of the people didn't agree with me and didn't regard Ash City as their home."
Xia Lei asked: "Is anyone leaving the city now?"
The general said: "No more, but fear is still spreading in the city, and the people left behind are very scared."
Xia Lei said: "Go and close the city gate, and inform those who stay to gather in the square. I will eliminate their fear and give them courage and confidence."
"Yes." The general who came to report the situation retreated.
Nightingale's eyes moved to Xia Lei's face, "Dragon King, I really don't know what to do without you. Your kindness to me and Ashes City makes me feel like I'm carrying a debt, but I don't know what to do." To repay you. Tell me, what do you need?"
Xia Lei waved his hand, "I don't want anything in return."
Nightingale said: "Do you want me to owe you my whole life?"
Xia Lei suddenly had a headache, "No need really, don't talk about this anymore, let's go to the square."
At this moment, a blue figure suddenly appeared, opened his mouth and said: "He needs your milk."
"Ah?" Nightingale was immediately stunned.
Xia Lei almost fell off the chair because of Shenyue Ruyi's words. He is now certain that Shenyue Ruyi really has problems getting along with others and using words when speaking, and it is a big problem!
"He's just embarrassed to say it. His evolution and his abilities all come from women's milk. Different women will have different breasts. The milk of a woman like you who has the Son of God gene is more precious to him than anything else. If you want to repay her, then give her milk, there is no better repayment than this." Shenyue Ruyi said in a crackling breath.
Nightingale was still stunned.
Xia Lei was so embarrassed that he wanted to get out of the way.
Shenyue Ruyi added, "Well, I expressed it fairly clearly, right?"
"I know your size, Nightingale, don't listen to nonsense, I didn't say that." Xia Lei stood up and strode to the door. When passing by Shenyue Ruyi, he added, "You know how to cause trouble for me!"
There was a strange smile on the corner of Shenyue Ruyi's mouth, and her voice was small, "You are embarrassed to say it, but I will say it for you. You are actually grateful to me, right?"
Xia Lei, "..."
The front and back of Shenyue Ruyi's body instantly switched, her feet were suspended, and she lightly caught up with Xia Lei, "There is also the one named Cai Ling. I have convinced her and she has agreed. You can find her at any time." Her, let her produce milk for you.”
"You, you..." Xia Lei felt dumbfounded. Some words were really difficult for him to say. It would save trouble and avoid embarrassment for her to say it. It was really a good thing for him, but why did he have a strange feeling? How does it feel
Shenyue Ruyi said: "You men are like this. You clearly want it in your heart, but you still pretend to be serious. While saying that I just want to protect you and help you, and don't want anything in return, you actually want to take off a woman's clothes, right?"
Xia Lei was speechless.
"I help you but I have to repay you. Please arrange for me to get dressed as soon as possible, okay?" Shenyue Ruyi's voice sounded pleading.
"Okay!" Xia Lei said angrily.
Another smile appeared on the corner of Shenyue Ruyi's mouth. She was unaware that the number of times she showed positive emotions had increased significantly since she last dressed, but it did not affect her energy structure. Isn't dressing in that way a form of evolution for her? It’s just that the drinks are different.
Xia Lei and Shenyue Ruyi disappeared at the door, but Nightingale was still sitting on the chair in a daze. After being stunned for a long time, she finally said, "Give him milk? My milk... can only be eaten by people." My husband? Is he proposing to me?"
If Xia Lei heard this, he would definitely vomit blood.
Other men find it difficult to find a wife, but in his case it is exactly the opposite. He is worried that he will be too busy to marry too many.
The gates of Ash City were closed, and the soldiers and civilians who received the notice gathered in the square. Although they had the courage to stay, the fear brought to them by the 500,000-strong army of Hades and the God of Death Diaro still lingered.
Can the Dragon King and Nightingale protect the city and protect them
In fact, few believe it.
