You've become the warden, and you're telling me I'm an undercover agent?

Chapter 346 Invasion of the Sword Tower!

The central city of the tribe - the Sword Tower.

When Huoba arrived here via space warp, it was already evening of the next day. Compared to the Sword Tower in the Divine Kingdom ruins, this place had a more vast and majestic feeling.

The tower stood tall across the boundless plains, reaching towards the heavens beneath the blood-red sunset. Its rough rock surface and straight, bold lines embodied the tribe's unique grandeur and majesty.

The most eye-catching thing is the swords and spears placed under the Sword Tower, as well as the decorations made of the skeletons of various ferocious beasts.

The guards at the tower gate were two muscular, dark-skinned men with totemic tattoos on their faces. To facilitate combat, most of the men were bald, with only a wisp of long beard left on their chins.

But in Hoba's eyes, this place is a huge monster's lair. The Sword Tower looks like a spine that soars into the sky.

Combined with the blood-red sunset, it fits perfectly.

Although Hoba was a fool, he was at least a man of status before he fell asleep. He didn't bother to communicate with the aggressive soldiers below, so he took a step forward and reappeared in the giant spine.

Since he didn't know what level the Great Emperor was on, he started from the highest level. As for how to identify the other party, it depended entirely on the richness of their life energy.

------

In the Tower of Sword, the people around the Emperor are basically from the same tribe as him.

As a ruthless leader, he was very clear about the reasons why he could ascend to the throne of God:

The first is his own strength, which goes without saying; the second is his own tribe, which fully supports him and provides him with many direct management talents for him to manage other tribes.

His foundation lies here, so after the catastrophe, all resources are focused on the people of his own tribe.

Some tribes would start wars due to a lack of food supply. At such times, only the emperor's own people would truly devote their lives to quelling the rebellion.

Putting aside the emperor's own strength, as long as he ensures that his direct tribe is the strongest, he doesn't have to worry about unfair treatment, or even consider treating everyone equally.

Skylark is from the same clan as the Great Emperor. He has two golden lines on the back of his neck, corresponding to a C-rank ability user. He currently works as a clerical worker at the Sword Tower, doing things like extracting and transcribing.

She was only 16 years old this year, as frail as the Two-Faced Turtle, but her background was much better than the Two-Faced Turtle's. She grew up peacefully in the tribe, and after awakening her abilities, she was chosen to enter the Sword Tower.

The catastrophe had some impact on her, but it was far from enough to affect her basic needs. As a result, her complexion looked much better than that of an average person.

She was currently copying the tribal history over and over again. According to the Emperor, if civilization were to disappear, future generations could use these texts to recreate the civilization of their tribe.

The tower is illuminated by a special kind of plant oil, the flames flicker and emit bursts of fragrance.

After copying for a long time, her wrists and neck were already aching. She was about to stand up to stretch her legs when suddenly all the lights in the room went out.

Her expression tightened, and she was about to light a lamp when she heard a monster's low growl in the darkness.

In an instant, the chill spread from the tailbone to the top of the head.

Although she had never actually been on the battlefield, she had seen the tribesmen sharing and eating those monsters. The roars they made before dying were somewhat similar to this.

Just as he was about to shout and inform the guards downstairs, he suddenly felt a huge suction force that threw him into a silent and dark space.

The darkness here is different from the darkness in the tower after the lights are turned off. In the tower, even though the lights are turned off, one or two rays of light can still seep in from the edges of the windows.

But here, there is pure darkness and deathly silence.

A great fear was running through her heart, and goose bumps had just appeared on her body when she heard another sound, an "Ouch" and then a vulgar curse.

Yun Que was all too familiar with this voice. It was the guards from the next floor, usually responsible for the security of the upper levels of the tower. But for some reason, they had also been thrown into this space.

"Is that Brother Yunfan?" Yunque said.

"Skylark?" Yun Fan was stunned for a moment: "Why are you here?"

"I don't know. I just felt dizzy and ended up here. How about you, Brother Yunfan?"

The girl's clear voice was always pleasant to the ear, but Yun Fan didn't have time to listen to it at that moment. He was a B-level strength, with three golden lines.

I didn't even see the shadow of the intruder, and then he appeared here.

He was silent for a long while, during which Yun Que became frightened again. Then he said, "The intruder is a very powerful fellow."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone shouting:
"Enemy attack!"

Seeing that no one responded and the surroundings were silent, he shouted "Enemy attack" a few more times, as well as some instructions like "Assemble, form a battle line".

The more Yun Fan listened, the heavier his heart became. He couldn't help but say in the direction of the voice:

"Is that Captain Cloudhawk?"

The voice shouting "enemy attack" suddenly paused, as if it wanted to say something or ask something, but many of its words were stuck in its throat after only one or two words were uttered.

After a while, he said, "You, were all caught?" The Cloud Eagle captain must have figured out his situation.

The reason why Yun Fan was in a heavy mood was because of Captain Yun Ying's strength. He had eleven golden lines and possessed A-level strength.

If even Captain Cloud Eagle was thrown in, then perhaps only the Apostle could subdue the invaders.

"Captain Yunying, were you also ambushed?" Yun Fan asked with a hope.

If it was a sneak attack, it would mean that the strength of the invader and Cloud Eagle was not much different.

Yunying recalled what happened before he came in. He just felt someone patting his shoulder, and then he suddenly felt dizzy.

After realizing that he was under attack, he appeared here.

"It can be considered a sneak attack." Yun Ying's words made Yun Fan feel relieved.

Was it a sneak attack?

That's easy to say. The enemy shouldn't be too strong. There are other captains in the Sword Tower. Together, they should be able to take down the invaders.

Just as I was thinking this, another voice sounded in the darkness:
"Why did you get in?"

Unlike before, Yunque, Yunfan and Yunying did not hear the sound of someone falling in, which means that the owner of this sound has been staying here.

Earlier than they came in.

For a moment, Yun Fan and the other two did not respond. The figure in the darkness seemed a little impatient:
"Why don't you speak?"

The voice was quite majestic, the kind that gave off the awe-inspiring presence of someone who had been in a high position for a long time.

But Yunfan was also a noble in the tribe, chosen to enter the Sword Tower, and a direct descendant of the gods. So, he asked with a hint of impatience, "Who are you?"

Just as he finished speaking, he heard Yunying beside him say in a very respectful voice, "Is it, is it the Second Apostle?"

Yun Fan was startled, initially feeling a bit annoyed at what he had said before. But then, he realized something even more serious!
A feeling of disbelief enveloped his heart!
Then, the same voice from before was heard answering, "It's me, who are you?"

"Tower Guard, Captain of the Second Squad, Yunying!" Yunying answered immediately. His years of training as a warrior made his words powerful and resonant.

After Yunying announced his name, he asked, "You were also ambushed by the enemy, and then—"

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the dead ghost: "No, I fought head-on and lost."

The word "lost" hit the three people's chest like a heavy hammer.

Even the second apostle lost in a head-on confrontation!

Well, the enemy came to the Sword Tower, probably well prepared!

This is probably a formidable enemy.

The three of them had their own guesses, but at this moment, the ghost spoke up: "You just said you were from the garrison, but why are you here?"

Cloudhawk swallowed hard, "The enemy has invaded the Sword Tower."

Now, the ghost also fell silent.

The dark space fell into dead silence again.

After a while, Yun Fan bravely said, "The enemy has actually come to the Sword Tower. They will definitely be taken down by the gods. Can they really fight against the gods? Haha! Hahaha!"

After saying this, he chuckled twice, and Yunying also laughed along.

Seeing this, the little girl Skylark, who had been silent the whole time, finally breathed a sigh of relief. She said happily, "So, God will defeat the enemy soon and come to save us?"

"Does that need to be said?"

The laughter of the three people echoed in the space, the kind of laughter that showed that even though things had encountered setbacks, everything was turning out for the better.

But as they laughed, their voices gradually died down. Because they suddenly noticed that the Second Apostle seemed to be silent, as if he didn't care.
After hearing their laughter, the Apostle sighed heavily.

The three of them felt a sudden pang of fear in their hearts for no apparent reason.

------

On the Tower of Swords, Huoba finally found the person with rich life energy.

He tilted his head to look at the back of the person in front of him and asked his doubts:
"You're not disturbed by 'cognitive deception'?"
