Jidao: I have ten equipment slots

Chapter 22 [022] Seizing Power

Gu Zheng interrupted him word by word, saying coldly, "I don't want to waste time talking to you. Just tell me whether you are willing to send troops or not?"

"presumptuous!"

Beside Pang Qianding, a horse-faced man glared at Gu Zheng and said in a deep voice, "Gu Zheng, you are so brave to speak to the captain like this? Don't forget that you are just a captain. The captain is willing to see you, which is already..."

boom!
The air exploded, and the fist force was like a substance, pouring down on the horse-faced man from a distance of ten steps. With a "bang", he was torn into pieces, and blood and flesh splattered all over Pang Qianding's head and face.

"Ah~"

Standing up in panic, Pang Qianding wiped the blood and flesh from his face while shouting, "Gu Zheng, you're looking for death! Shoot him, shoot him!"

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh~
A row of soldiers on the right holding short crossbows subconsciously shot sharp crossbow arrows towards Gu Zheng.

Swish!
Gu Zheng's body flashed and he leaped into the air. In an instant, he crossed over the heads of two rows of soldiers and landed in front of Pang Qianding.

"you……"

Tsk~!

A cold light flashed, and a head flew into the air. There was shock and horror on the face, and disbelief in the eyes.

dong dong!

His head fell to the ground and rolled twice. When it came to a stop, Pang Qianding still didn't believe that Gu Zheng dared to kill him.

That’s right, Gu Zheng can kill demons, but according to the information Pang Qianding heard, Gu Zheng led people to the Runan King’s villa to surround and kill the demons. They relied on various equipment and anesthetics to knock down the demons.

Gu Zheng alone cannot kill him.

Pang Qianding is not stupid. He can sit in the position of captain because he has both good background and skills.

He was just greedy for money out of habit and wanted to take this opportunity to make some money from Gu Zheng.

The Gu family is a well-known wealthy family in Qingshi County!

Who would have thought that Gu Zheng would act as soon as he said he would, and not only would he kill someone with one punch from a distance, but his speed would also be so terrifying.

The headless corpse swayed and fell to the ground. It was too late for Pang Qianding to regret.

This sudden change made everyone else at the scene stunned, shocked, and bewildered.

Pang Qianding is dead...

Gu Zheng actually chopped off Pang Qianding's head with one knife in front of so many people!
All the soldiers who had surrounded Pang Qianding were dumbfounded. They were shocked by Gu Zheng's decisiveness and at a loss as to what to do.

Take action against Gu Zheng and avenge Pang Qianding?

Stop kidding. Gu Zheng’s speed just now was comparable to that of a ghost. The crossbow arrow didn’t even hit his shadow.

If this were to happen, we wouldn’t know who would be the one to die!
"Danglang~"

Suddenly, the sound of weapons falling was heard.

It was Guan Ai who was standing nearby. He dropped his sword, knelt on one knee, and shouted to Gu Zheng respectfully, "Greetings, Master Gu! Guan Ai is willing to obey your orders, even if it means risking his life or risking his life!"

The scene fell silent.

The next moment, the sound of weapons falling, "clang, clang", echoed everywhere.

Everyone knelt on one knee and shouted in unison, "Greetings, Master Gu. We are willing to obey your orders, even if it means going through fire and water, or dying!"

"..."Gu Zheng lowered his head slightly and glanced at the pass.

Commander Guan was quite sensible. He expressed his submission without waiting for him to speak.

have a future!
"Everyone, get up."

Glancing at the crowd, Gu Zheng said loudly, "This is an urgent matter, so I won't waste any more words. Everyone, bring your equipment and set out immediately, in groups of five, to search the entire city. Once you find anything, fire a flare!"

"Follow orders!!"

Everyone responded in unison, then stood up and moved quickly.

"Commander Guan."

Gu Zheng stopped Guan Ai and whispered, "Go to the city wall and call down all the people on it. Put on armor, bring dye, ink, and lime, and search for the monster."

"Yes, my lord!"

Guan Ai bowed his head and accepted the order, then left quickly.

Without the captain Pang Qianding complaining on the side, things suddenly became smooth.

Seizing power was not what Gu Zheng wanted.

It's a pity that some people still can't recognize the situation even at this time.

Then we can only let them die!

……

……

Gu Zheng’s guess soon came true.

There are only two kinds of monsters that can fly into the city. One is a winged monster like a slug.

The second type is a giant rotten bird with three or five hideous heads flying in the air.

These two kinds of monsters happen to be able to become invisible.

When flying over the city wall from the air, you can't see it at all at first. Only when the demons attack, can you hear the growls, screams, and the innate captivating and terrifying evil spirit of the demons.

Faced with this kind of evil spirit, ordinary people would either be frightened and stand still, or their legs would become weak and they would want to escape but have no strength.

Only a few strong-willed people can hold on and escape in panic.

As for counterattack?

Not realistic at all.

Only Han Ming, Wang Meng and other constables, who had followed Gu Zheng to kill demons in the Runan King's villa last time and had already endured the impact of the demons' aura, could fight back a little.

They worked in groups of five, searching for traces of demons and monsters, sensing the invisible and terrifying aura, while scattering dyes, releasing crossbows, and firing whistling arrows.

The firecrackers broke through the air, exploding a ball of fireworks in the sky.

As the smoke briefly filled the air, Gu Zheng leaped into the air at an extremely fast speed.

Whether it was a slug demon or an invisible giant bird, Gu Zheng killed them in a few breaths, and then captured their souls with lightning speed to obtain their molting blood.

[Demon Points +3]

[Demon Points +2]

[Demon Points +2]

……

From morning to afternoon.

With all the detectives and soldiers searching, most of the slug monsters and invisible giant birds hiding in dark corners or rooms were killed.

The evil spirits did not notice it at the beginning, and no one screamed before being killed.

It seems that there is only one evil spirit in the city.

While Gu Zheng was rushing around to kill the slug monsters and invisible giant birds, he did not forget to sense and search for the unique breath of evil spirits.

However, it was never found.

It is necessary to find out why the slug monster and the invisible giant bird reject the sunlight.

They are not afraid of the sun, but they are not adapted to it.

Because in the world where the demons live, there is no sun, or it is not a golden sun that sheds light and heat.

These demons had just come out of the field, and they instinctively felt uncomfortable with the light and heat from the sun of the real world.

This kind of discomfort and subconscious rejection will take at most two days to get used to!

Therefore, if you want to kill demons, you have to kill them as early as possible.

……

Night falls.

Suddenly, screams and cries of terror were heard in the city.

The remaining slug monsters that had been hiding came out to eat people.

Gu Zheng followed the sound and jumped over in the air.

A few flashes of the knife appeared, and the demon points obtained three points, two points, and three points.

When the cries stopped, the sound of flapping wings was heard in the air.

The invisible giant bird appeared.

They flew back to the county town from the mountains and forests outside the city, wanting to hunt again and have a good meal.

Boom!
Gu Zheng jumped off the ground and soared into the air.

In the dark vision, the shape of the invisible giant bird can be clearly seen.

Chi chi chi~!

The sword flashed across the sky, tearing through the air and killing the invisible giant bird.

[Demon Points +2]

[Demon Points +3]

……

When the last invisible giant bird was cut into pieces and fell from the sky, all the demons threatening the county were caught in one fell swoop.

Gu Zheng gained a total of 68 demon points!
