Chapter 772: Burning the City
Chapter 772: Burning the City
"This way, this way!"
Under the cover of night, Lu Qiaochun waved to the refugees.
Now, Thunder City is under blockade, and it is not easy to leave the city.
The four major families above were keeping a close eye on things, so even if it was the rebel army, they only allowed a small group of people to secretly leave Thunder City.
"Lord Lu, the city gate is just ahead! Are we just going to walk over there like this?"
Someone in the fleeing team couldn't help but ask in a trembling voice. They were extremely afraid of the guards holding torches at the door.
Lu Qiaochun followed the direction the man pointed, looked towards the heavily guarded city gate, and then shook his head slightly.
"No, let's go through the secret passage next to it."
Secret passage?
Is there such a secret passage at the gate of Thunder City?
Although the man looked puzzled, he suppressed his curiosity and followed Lu Qiaochun nervously with the team.
There were only a dozen people in their group, but every member of the team had paid a huge price to buy the opportunity and ticket to escape from Thunder City from the rebels.
Although it is a painful price to pay, life is more important than one's own.
With the army of demons pressing down, there is no room for ordinary people to survive.
That was a demon that was brutal by nature and fed on humans! In addition, Thunder City was no longer as powerful as before, so the possibility of resisting was almost zero.
It's no wonder they feel pessimistic. The truth is that the current Thunder City does not have the confidence it had when the top ten families were still there. Even the buildings in the city are still in the repair stage, and the city defense formation may not even be usable, not to mention the loss of personnel and a significant drop in overall strength.
No one has confidence in Thunder City, so there are actually a lot of people who want to escape.
As more people come, the price goes up, and the ticket fee naturally becomes higher.
Some people in the team were still feeling sorry for the ticket fees they paid, and had no idea that as their vision darkened, they had entered an underground passage.
Following Lu Qiaochun, they walked a few more minutes along the winding passage. When the cover above their heads was removed, moonlight began to pour in from outside.
"Come out, we are already outside the city."
Lu Qiaochun walked out first and turned to speak to the people behind him.
People came out one after another, and some had already secretly memorized the secret route, their hearts filled with resentment and regret.
Just for such a short secret road journey, they had to pay such a huge price to pass through?
As long as they know this secret passage and bypass the rebels, they can leave Thunder City by themselves!
They can even do this business! They just need to go back into the city and take people along this route.
After all, Thunder City is now a place where people can only enter but not exit. It is not really completely closed, because the demon army has not yet approached and there is still buffer space. It has not reached the stage of completely closing the city.
"You can go now. It's best to run as far away as possible."
Lu Qiaochun was still kind-hearted. After the transaction was completed, she gave one more instruction.
Some people felt complicated for a while. After all, this was the hometown where they were born and raised. If they left now, they might never come back in this lifetime.
Some people took a step and were ready to flee. This was the wilderness, not a safe area. Staying for one more second would be irresponsible for their own safety.
But at this moment...
"Wait a moment!"
An untimely voice suddenly sounded from the side.
When everyone turned around and saw what was happening, they were so frightened that they almost fell to their knees.
No! Someone has already knelt down!
"Yu, Lord Yuwen! It's not like that! It's not what you think! We were deceived by the rebels! We didn't intend to escape!"
Once he opens his mouth, he speaks without restraint.
But the others also quickly followed suit.
"Yes, that's right! Sir, this woman is a high-ranking member of the Rebel Army! She forced us and escorted us here. We knew nothing about it!"
"Sir, help me! This rebel is trying to take us away from Thunder City and greatly weaken Thunder City's strength. He has ulterior motives!"
"Sir! She also looted our supplies. Sir, you must seek justice for us!"
More than a dozen people were crying and shouting, shedding tears and mourning, and their acting was very realistic.
however……
"Yuwen Wuji, hurry up, take away those who can't leave, don't waste time."
Lu Qiaochun looked calmly at Yuwen Wuji and the powerful men with terrifying auras behind him!
Yuwen Wuji himself is not a problem, and his strength is not impressive enough for the rebels.
But his status in the four major families, as well as his own subordinates and the power they bring, are the reasons why all the forces in the city are willing to make friends with him.
Lu Qiaochun's words stunned the group of refugees.
The righteous army, the righteous army actually knew Yuwen Wuji, the guest of the Bo family and the most popular person in Thunder City! It even seemed that...the righteous army and Yuwen Wuji seemed to have some secret collusion? ?
"Wait, wait! What do you want to do? Do the four major families know that you are doing this? Does the Bo family know? Lord Yuwen, you have to think clearly, she is the righteous rebel! We, we are innocent!"
Some people shouted nervously, but it was meaningless.
Because the rebel army and Yuwen Wuji had already been in touch.
Some people can be let go by turning a blind eye.
They can distribute and share the handed-in materials and resources in proportion and cooperate well.
But some people, those who have special abilities or extraordinary strengths and can play a role if they stay, are not allowed to leave Thunder City.
So sometimes all the people that Lu Qiaochun took out left smoothly, and sometimes they were stopped by Yuwen Wuji and a few of them were detained.
It was the same this time. After draining these people of their valuable resources, three of them were detained in Yuwen Wuji's team.
As for the others, they were all released, and they were so scared that they pissed and shit themselves, and they fled into the dark and endless wilderness.
"You've been checking the gate too often recently. Hasn't your master ever suspected you?"
Lu Qiaochun glanced at the man standing next to her, with unconcealable disgust in her eyes.
"Miss Lu's words are still so harsh, but I, Yuwen Wuji, am guarding the West City Gate. My master is so happy that he can't wait to feel unhappy."
Yuwen Wuji answered the question irrelevantly, but it seemed as if he had already answered it.
This way of speaking made Lu Qiaochun frown.
Sure enough, she still doesn't like communicating with this kind of people.
Turning around, she was about to go into the secret passage and prepare to return to the rebel army.
And behind her, Yu Wen Wuji's voice came.
"Give my regards to Chief Qiu. I hope we can continue to have a pleasant cooperation."
"……snort."
After Lu Qiaochun left, the hypocritical smile on Yuwen Wuji's face slowly disappeared.
When he led the team back to the city gate, the Dog-Headed Military Advisor was already trotting over.
"Boss, let's still follow the old rules? Send 50% of today's harvest to the Bo family?" "What do you think?" Yuwen Wuji glanced at him.
The dog-headed military advisor couldn't help but be shocked.
"Boss, that's half of our harvest. It hurts to give away all those supplies for nothing!"
"Some things must be handed in. How come you haven't understood after following me for so long? Just listen to me and do the work."
Wu Junshi couldn't help but mutter, "Doesn't this show that the gang leader is smart? Without me, who can the gang leader show his intelligence to? Them?"
"You kid! Hahahahaha!"
After all, people like Military Advisor Wu, who have been following him since the Black Tiger Gang, are his true friends.
Those powerful people who came to join the Red Immortal for the sake of the Red Immortal's relics were just using each other.
"Gang leader..."
The Dog-Headed Military Advisor suddenly leaned closer again and asked quietly in a low voice.
"Do we really want to stay here and live and die with Thunder City? From what I see, the situation in Thunder City is a bit precarious..."
"Don't worry about this, I have my own arrangements."
Stay? Stay and wait for death? Now you are making a lot of money, isn't it just to run away!
Yu Wen Wuji had an idea of this plan.
After some time, it will be the time for the Red Immortal's relics to truly come out. Before that, these subordinates will only follow me wholeheartedly.
Therefore, we must make good use of this time, strengthen our strength, and make all preparations!
There is light in Yu Wen Wuji's eyes, he has huge ambitions, and he has the ability to put them into action!
Right now, the Bo family is using his people to build up momentum, and he is also using the Bo family's power to amass wealth.
Everything is just mutual benefit. Which side the two sides will go to in the end depends on their own abilities.
On the other side, Lu Qiaochun had also returned to the rebel base.
She found Qiu Xiaoping and reported to her.
Since that great war, the rebel army has suffered heavy losses and no longer has the strength to compete with the four major families. It can only survive, recuperate, and develop slowly.
After decades of peaceful development, the rebel army could have regained their former ambitions. But now, the attack of the demon army has destroyed all of Qiu Xiaoping's plans.
"Master Qiu, why don't we escape too? Take all the rebels with us!"
Although Lu Qiaochun also wanted to continue living in Thunder City, given the current situation, staying in Thunder City would mean a life-threatening situation.
But Qiu Xiaoping shook her head.
"We can't leave. We have been targeted by the four major families for a long time. Even the skilled craftsmen in the city have been detained, not to mention us, the rebels."
After hearing this, Lu Qiaochun also sighed inwardly.
Yes, don’t think that they led people out very smoothly, as if anyone could pass through that secret passage.
But in fact, this was the result of mutual compromise between the two parties. If it was a person without any background, and accidentally came out of the secret passage, he would be hit by the killing move of the City Gate Brigade and would be killed on the spot.
"If that's the case... don't we have a 100% chance of survival?"
Lu Qiaochun's eyes were slightly red.
She didn't want to die, and she didn't want to die in such an unclear, aggrieved and painful way.
"Let's seek change while maintaining stability. Relying on the resources provided by those who left the city, we will arm our people to the teeth as quickly as possible to ensure the greatest combat power. When the war breaks out, if there is a chance, we will look for a way to break through and escape!"
Hearing that Qiu Xiaoping still had the idea of resisting and escaping, Lu Qiaochun felt a lot more relieved.
With her strength, she had no chance of survival in such a chaotic battlefield. Even if she was lucky enough to get to the wild, the possibility of escaping safely to the next town was low.
But if he escaped with Qiu Xiaoping, with Qiu Xiaoping's care, his chances of survival would be greatly increased.
Besides, she is not completely directionless.
"Master Qiu, I heard from Master Diao that their destination is the capital. If we have no one to rely on, we can also go to the capital to look for them..."
Before Lu Qiaochun could finish his words, Qiu Xiaoping raised her hand to suppress him.
There are some things she hasn't thought that far into.
Right now, it’s not time yet. We should focus on dealing with current issues and prepare for a breakout or resistance.
Everything depends on the final outcome of the struggle between the demon army and the four major families.
The entire Thunder City became busy and in chaos. All kinds of monsters and demons emerged. While the interior was in chaos, the demon army from the Demon City was approaching rapidly.
Because the target was clear, the marching speed was quite fast.
After several consecutive rainy days, a thick dark cloud floated in from afar and gradually covered the sky above Thunder City.
Dark clouds cover the sky and the army is approaching!
That dense army of demons also appeared today, more than ten kilometers away from Thunder City.
"Roar!!"
"Roar!"
The excited roars of the demons, even from a distance, had already been heard by thousands of households in Thunder City like the sound of drums.
Qiu Xiaoping originally wanted to investigate the situation of the demons and the combat power of both sides.
But just by taking one more look outside from a high place, she immediately realized that Thunder City... was finished.
The boundless army of demons, each of them is strong and powerful.
The dust raised by the army's march covered the sky like a sandstorm!
The terrifying momentum of moving forward and crushing everything to pieces shocked Qiu Xiaoping!
It was the first time she saw such a cohesive group of demons, and also the first time she saw a demon king who could command so many demons!
"The four great families will fight to the death!!"
The four major families are still on the city wall, carrying out the final mobilization.
But Qiu Xiaoping understood that they would eventually have to return to their family and rely on the power of the Pillar of Heaven to be qualified to fight against this huge army of demons.
"We need to find a way out."
Qiu Xiaoping understood everything and had a clear understanding of the situation.
However, time waits for no one. While she was taking action, the army of demons was already surging towards her like an endless black tide!
Countless demons rushed to ram the city walls frantically as if they were risking their lives, completely ignoring the dense swarms of arrows falling from the walls like raindrops.
Boom! !
It was just the first wave of impact. The city wall, which had already suffered a lot and had not been fully repaired, was hit and left with a huge dent on the spot. The dents were densely packed like a spider web in every corner of the wall.
"Roar!!!"
Accompanied by the second wave of attack from the demon’s surging momentum.
Boom! ! !
A huge hole was smashed in the city wall, and countless demons instantly poured into Thunder City like a tide!
In an instant, the entire Thunder City turned into a living hell!
Screams, calls for help and cries are endless!
Killing people and setting fires, skinning and eating bones, wherever the demon passes, no grass grows!
The fire started from the city gate like oil being poured on it, rising against the wind and spreading wildly. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a raging flame that burned the entire city!
