Chapter 616 [659] Celebration Ball
"A city still in the hands of humans? In this regard, I'm afraid I can't help you much, because we have been here for a long time, and we have lost contact with the outside world for a long time. If you didn't tell me, I still don't know that humans There is such a big victory in Huohaiyundu." Hearing what Little Moya said, Carlo said very helplessly.

"No matter what, you must know more than us." Bi Fang took out a map and handed it to Xiao Moya, who then handed it to Carlo, and said to him.

"I..." Carlo originally planned to refuse, but when he saw that this map was obviously a super old map before the human undead war, he immediately knew that he could indeed help the other party.

"It's like this. The city I marked for you, I can only say that it was still in the hands of humans before the fall of our Furious Tomahawk Academy. Although, my information is not up to date. But for you Said, there should still be some reference value." Carlo took out a new map, drew a few big circles on it with a pen, and said to Bi Fang and the others.

This map is a map of a small area, which should only be within the scope of a few provinces.However, this is enough for Bi Fang.

"The place I circled for you is that before, the cities that were still in the hands of humans, especially these four, were all large-scale cities without any super power. It stands to reason that they would not It was contributed by the undead army in such a short period of time. Because their defense strength is sufficient and they will not attract the attention of the undead ace troops, it is unlikely that they will be contributed in such a short period of time." Carlo said as he spoke. , while drawing another circle outside several circles, highlighting five cities, and said to Bi Fang and Xiaomoya.

Bi Fang took the map, looked at it, put the map away, and signaled Carlo to leave.

Early the next morning, the students of the Furious Tomahawk Academy discovered that the person who spent the night in the open space of the training ground was no longer there.

"Brother Bi Fang, look, there seems to be cooking smoke over there!" They set off before dawn, heading for the nearest city, and when it was getting dark, they could already see the outline of a city in the distance up.Seeing the smoke rising slowly, Xiao Moya shouted excitedly.

"Well, it seems that we are lucky. This first city is still under human control." Bi Fang nodded and said.

And at this moment, a large group of people came here from a distance at a very fast speed, and it seemed that they were also going to enter the city.

Sure enough, a few minutes later, under the escort of thousands of soldiers and hundreds of magicians, a large convoy of carriages drove over.Bi Fang's spiritual sense, without further investigation, knew that all the carriages transported were grain.

"The friends in front make way for our food transport team to pass first. We must enter the city before Sun Luoshan. If our food is stopped by the undead army, some people in Jiye City will not be able to eat." Delivering food One person in the team left the team on a fast horse, rushed over quickly, and said to Bi Fang and the others.

Bi Fang and the others looked at each other, and had no choice but to yield to the side of the road, letting the food transport team pass first.

Following behind the grain transport convoy, Bi Fang entered Jiye City, which he had never been to before, without any hindrance.

Comparing two maps of different periods, it can be found that Himeno City is a city that has only developed in recent years.Many conditions here are immature, but because the terrain is very good, it is very conducive to defending against the undead army, so it slowly developed into a relatively large city.However, because there is relatively little arable land near Himeno City, food has to be transported from other cities regularly in order to maintain normal operation.

"Brother Bi Fang, is this the city of your humans? Although it seems that the place is extremely busy because of the war, it can still be seen that this place seems to be very prosperous." After entering the city gate, Little Cliff looked like a curious baby, looking east and west.Everything seems so novel.

Bi Fang was walking on this street, and he was very relieved to see that although it was a bit depressed, it was an orderly city, and there were various shops open.After all, although the undead army greatly destroyed the human world, it did not completely destroy the human way of life.Inside this city, the simple smiles can still be seen on the faces of many common people.

"Guests from afar, our Jiye City has a large bonfire dance party in the central square tonight, you must come to participate." At this time, a woman held a lot of leaflets and handed them to Bi Fang and Xiao. A piece of cliff, very happy to send out the invitation.

"The undead can take away our lives and our cities, but they cannot take away our joy and belief in living. We must use our happy laughter to welcome the ultimate victory that belongs to us human beings." Bi Fang took the flyer, looked at the large characters on the colorful picture page, and read it out.

"Guests from afar, you will understand after reading the news. We humans have won a great victory in the battle of Huohaiyundu. We humans have eliminated the most powerful god-level masters of the undead army, and, They also wiped out the ace troops of the undead army, and the time for our human counterattack is coming." The woman who handed out the leaflets said excitedly to Bi Fang.

After Bi Fang heard the words, he turned to the back of the flyer, and sure enough, he found densely packed characters.Bi Fang read it all at once. The general meaning was to publicize the victory of that battle in a high-profile manner, and also explained that after a few days, humans counterattacked and took back several cities.

"Okay, thank you, we will definitely go to participate." Bi Fang said affirmatively after reading the leaflet.

"You are very welcome, then I will continue to distribute leaflets." Seeing that Bi Fang had accepted the invitation, the woman continued to distribute the news that a large bonfire dance party would be held in the central square tonight.Obviously the news must have just arrived here.Otherwise, they wouldn't have started handing out leaflets when it was getting dark.

After inquiring all the way, they came to the most prosperous commercial street in Himeno City, and Bi Fang accompanied Xiaomoya to shop from shop to shop.Little Moya has never seen anything in the human world, so she is very interested in almost everything.The strong desire to buy is just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden.

At first, Bi Fang thought that the current currency in circulation was gold coins, but later he realized that the best thing to use now is food.Of course, gold coins can also be used, but the purchasing power is obviously less than half of the original.Especially food cannot be purchased with gold coins.Because, normally, no one sells food.The food supply in Himeno City is subsidized according to the standard.If there is a problem with any batch of grain, then, for a long time, there will be a shortage of food.So food is the hard currency in this self-sufficient city.Of course, if you want to buy weapons, clothes, handicrafts, and such things, gold coins are completely fine.After all, everyone knows that sooner or later the human order will be restored, and by then, these gold coins will still be able to restore their normal purchasing power.Earn more money now, and life will be much easier in the future.

At first, Bi Fang used gold coins to buy things.Later, seeing that these people were more eager for food, it would be easier to let the Lich King Maya Lulaco follow behind.Little Cliff can take whatever he likes, and in the end, let the Lich King Maya Lulaco pay for it.

Of course, the meat cut must not be the flesh of the Lich King Maya Lulaco, let alone that this guy has no meat at all, even if there is meat, no one else dares to eat it.What he paid was the meat of various monsters.The meat of the big black cow is only for the kebabs specially provided by Bi Fang.Last time I gave Carlo ten big black cows, Bi Fang already felt pain in his flesh. Now, Bi Fang only has three big black cows with delicious meat. How could he be willing to give them to others?
However, for those who are accustomed to being a vegetarian, eating meat is already a very luxurious thing. How can they choose what kind of meat it is?
Therefore, along the way, Xiaomoya has greatly satisfied his desire to buy, and Bi Fang is also happy to give away these monster meat.Anyway, this is what they specially prepared to deal with people who might encounter food shortages.It doesn't hurt to send it.

Dangdang~~~Suddenly, there was a sound of gongs and drums over the entire city. Immediately, almost everyone rushed out of the house and gathered in one direction.Needless to say, the big bonfire dance must be about to start.

"Let's join in the fun too. Needless to say, since the outbreak of the undead war, this kind of excitement has been rare." Bi Fang said to Xiao Moya with a smile.

"Okay, okay! I like dancing very much." Little Moya said happily.

With Xiaomoya's consent, everyone immediately followed the direction of the crowd, which was good, and they didn't have to worry about not knowing the way.

"Dear guests, in order to match the grand dance we are about to hold tonight, our brother cities have sent us a lot of fine wine and food. Every guest who comes tonight can receive a sumptuous dinner and Have a glass of delicious wine, let's cheer!" Bi Fang had just arrived at the venue when he heard the host on the stage announce loudly with a magic loudspeaker array.And following his announcement, screams and cheers erupted from the crowd.

"Wow~ It's so lively, so enthusiastic!" Feeling the fiery atmosphere that was never possible in this demon world, Xiao Moya also felt that his whole being was mobilized.Shout together with the crowd.

Facing the huddled and reveling crowd, Bi Fang's six magic guards were obviously not used to it.He watched the surroundings closely with a nervous expression, for fear that someone would be unfavorable to Bi Fang and Xiaomoya.Of course, this kind of chaotic scene is indeed the perfect opportunity for an assassination, and it is also the scene that these bodyguards are most afraid of appearing.However, Bi Fang is not worried. After all, in this general environment, human beings are still united for the time being.Besides, I and Xiaomoya will not know anyone, some people will definitely come up to eat some tofu while taking advantage of the chaos, but there will definitely be people who want to assassinate them.

Taking advantage of the time when everyone else was queuing up to get food, Bi Bian led everyone to a location with a very good view.Then, he took out the carpet and spread it on the floor, placed some snacks, and invited everyone to sit on it.

This kind of bonfire party is naturally going to be held around the bonfire. The bonfire in the middle has already risen. In front of the bonfire, a large area is marked out, which is used for dancing, and there are seats behind it.Of course, there are no tables and chairs here. Everyone brings their own blankets, and each occupies the same area as the king.

Of course, it can be seen that there are a lot of people coming to the dance tonight.Therefore, only the people in the circle near the bonfire can still sit.People who go further outside can only see it by standing.Of course, to go further outside, you have to climb to some high places in order to see the situation inside the venue.

"Brother Bi Fang, why do I see those sitting people with various designs embroidered on their chests? , covered with a gorgeous carpet, sitting there, a man with elegant manners, asked Bi Fang.

Hearing Xiao Moya's words, Bi Fang turned his head to look, and sure enough, he found that the other sitting people all had family medals embroidered on their chests.In other words, those people are nobles.

"It's a medal that means they are all nobles." Bi Fang said with a frown.It seems that no matter what the circumstances, the concept of class among human beings will always exist.At this time, Bi Fang went to observe the distribution of the participants, and he could see that the people sitting closest to the bonfire were basically well-dressed nobles, and further outside, there were some small and medium nobles. Apart from the nobles, there are some people with status and status, and those who stand up and climb up and down are common people.

"Nobles? We also have nobles in the Demon Realm~Brother Bi Fang, what level of nobles are you here? Are you a prince or a duke? You can't be as young as a marquis or an earl, right?" Regarding the concept of hierarchy, the little one born in the demon clan Cliff is very understanding.After all, in the Demon Realm, it is a place with strict hierarchy.Even before his father was the head of the three marshals, he was definitely a feudal official, and his status was much higher than that of ordinary demon kings.And the Demon King of the Demon Realm should be at the level of a prince.

"Me? I'm not an aristocrat, I'm just a commoner!" Bi Fang said indifferently.

"Ah? How is it possible? With my brother's ability, how could he be just a commoner? Are all human superiors so blind?" Hearing that his man was actually the lowest-ranked commoner, Xiao Moya immediately complained for Bi Fang.

"Hehe, do you want me to be a human noble, to serve those kings? I'm not interested! Freedom is great!" Bi Fang asked back with a smile.

"That's right. There are so many countries in your human race, and you don't have a supreme authority. Even if you are a prince, there are many people who can order you. With the ability of your brother, it is really frustrating to be ordered by ordinary people. People are uncomfortable!" Xiao Moya also agreed with Bi Fang's statement.

"Master, trouble is coming." At this moment, the Lich King Maya Lulaco, who was pretending to be the old housekeeper, reminded Bi Fang in a low voice.

Hearing the sound, Bi Fang looked up, and sure enough, he saw a family of more than a dozen people walking over with a group of followers.And wherever they passed, both civilians and nobles stood up to make way for them.

"En?" Seeing that Bi Fang and the others were sitting in the best position, who should be the head of the family, he frowned and let out a nasal voice of doubt.He looked rather unhappy.

"Mocha, didn't you say that everything has been arranged? Where is my position?" The man turned his head and asked the entourage behind him.

"Ah? City Lord, this... This place is reserved for you. Everyone in this city knows it, and no one will give you face. It's just that these people don't seem to be from this city." The man named Mocha, dressed as a housekeeper, stood up with sweat on his forehead, looked at the position, then looked at Bi Fang and the others, and said very nervously and frightened.Unexpectedly, this group of people turned out to be the castellan's family.

"My lord, why don't we give up our position to you. My family didn't come back in time, so I'm the only one here." The lonely noble stood up and said.

"Ah, thank you so much, old friend, why don't we have fun together. Mocha, there is not enough space here, you take people back, and see how I deal with you when I go back! Seventh, eighth, you go back together too Let's go." The city lord seemed to have a good self-cultivation, but he didn't drive Bi Fang and the others away.Moreover, he also agreed to the request of the person next to him and sat down in the slightly smaller seat over there.Because of the lack of seats, he even asked his entourage and two sons to leave.This gave Bi Fang a good first impression of the city lord.

"Father! Obviously we have a place, why, we have to give it up to others for nothing? Besides, why should we let the two of us go back." Seeing that his father did not give himself face in front of so many people, he asked himself to return Home, the eighth son of the city lord suddenly complained.

"That's right, Lord City Master, if your position is taken by a nobleman, then that's all. But in fact, how could a nobleman who has received higher education and cultured not even understand the most basic etiquette, just sit around casually?" What?" At this time, the butler said loudly as if pointing.

Hearing the butler's words, many people turned their attention to Bi Fang and the others. At this moment, they all noticed that although the carpets under Bi Fang's bodies looked very precious, the food seemed to be arranged well.But they are not nobles.

This time, the pot was fried, and these nobles suddenly started talking about it.

Bi Fang, who originally planned to give up a little space so that the city lord's child could also attend, saw the performance of these two people, and immediately took back what he was about to say.He wants to see how these people will deal with him.

"Untouchables! Don't think that you are a noble because you stole a precious carpet from somewhere. You are still sitting here quite securely. You didn't hear what I said just now. This is a place for nobles to sit. You guys The untouchables, why don’t you just get out of here? Don’t you want me to get someone to throw you out, don’t you?” The butler saw that his goal had been achieved, and the nobles in front of him were attacking these few who had occupied the position of the city lord’s family. The civilians immediately shouted arrogantly.

The nobles in front of them criticized Bi Fang together.Supporting the just behavior of the steward of the City Lord's Mansion, of course, is more to please the City Lord who is on the sidelines.

"You..." As the princess of the Demon Realm, when Xiao Moya was pointed at her nose and scolded by a person whose status was as low as a dog, she immediately wanted to reason with the other party.Although Xiao Moya, who seldom went out since she was a child, didn't know how to bully others, she was also instilled by her father in the thought that no one should be offended.No matter how good-tempered she is, how innocent and kind-hearted she is, she will get angry when she sees her husband being scolded one by one by a pariah.Looking at the entire demon world, no one dared to scold Bi Fang like that. Now in a low-level space, she doesn't care about a shit city lord, let alone a city manager who is not even as good as shit.

But as soon as she opened her mouth, Bi conveniently stopped her and said, "Little Moya, don't pay attention to him. It's not worth disturbing our mood for such a person. You guys set up an enchantment and don't let anyone disturb me. gone."

Bi Fang appeased Xiao Moya, and then said to his magic guard to show some face to the good-looking city lord just now.

"Yes, my lord." The Six Demon Guards nodded in agreement.After making a few jewelry in secret, the invisible barrier has been arranged quietly.

"Come on, let's drink." Bi Fang raised his glass and said to Xiao Moya.

"Brother, you are so generous. Just now, I was so angry. I didn't expect you to be able to laugh." In front of outsiders, Xiaomoya can't call Bi Fang's name, so he directly used Brother commensurate.

"You bastard! You even kicked your nose in the face. Come on, teach me a lesson for these untouchables. Let them know that the dignity of nobles cannot be offended." The butler said loudly.

Originally, the city lord wanted to stop his butler, but when he heard that he even erected the banner of noble dignity, and the surrounding nobles also responded, he had no choice but to acquiesce in his actions.

And many followers of the nobles also joined the ranks of teaching Bi Fang and the others.

"Bang bang bang~~~" Several minions who came over aggressively, after touching the invisible barrier, all suffered a strong elastic force and were directly thrown out.These demon guards were angry just now that these humans cursed their princess and son-in-law so much.But Bi Fang is human after all, and they must get Bi Fang's permission to attack these low-strength humans.Otherwise, not only would it not make Bi Fang happy, but it would also make Bi Fang dissatisfied with them.Bi Fang asked them to set up an enchantment, and they would naturally arrange it obediently. However, there are many types of enchantment, some are purely defensive, and some are counterattack.Although it is said that the enchantment with additional counterattack effect has poor defensive performance, for these ordinary humans, the defensive enchantment they have cast, even if the defensive performance is a few percent worse, it is enough.Moreover, the defensive barrier they set up is not a barrier for passive counterattack, but a barrier for active counterattack. Anyone who touches this barrier will be bounced away.If someone attacks this enchantment, then congratulations, you are ready to suffer a counterattack that is three times your attack power.Of course, if your attack power exceeds [-]% of the full attack of the magic guard who arranged the barrier over here, then the barrier will be broken by you.But, do these minions have this strength?
Therefore, after those people touched the invisible barrier, they were all thrown out by the giant bullets. Because of the sudden fright, these people screamed in the air in fright.

And at this time, the originally invisible enchantment slowly revealed its shape because it was touched.This is a transparent enchantment shining with stars.Originally, there was a little bit of black, but under the night, that bit of black couldn't be seen at all.

"Barrier?" The people present couldn't help but be very surprised when they saw the barrier like an upside-down cauldron, because they didn't see when the other party set up the barrier.

"How is the defensive power of this enchantment? What is its nature?" At this time, the city lord whispered to a magician beside him who was wearing a magic robe embroidered with two golden staffs.

"My lord, I'm very sorry. I've never seen this kind of barrier. And, the most surprising thing is that I can't feel the nature of this barrier at all. I dare say that the person who arranged this barrier is absolutely powerful. Not below me. Even, far surpassing me." The magician whispered.

"What? The strength far exceeds you? How is this possible? You are the strength of the second level of the sanctuary. There are very few masters of the second level of the sanctuary on the mainland, and all of them are famous. I have never heard of it. I said there are people among them." The city lord couldn't help being very surprised when he heard the words of himself, the number one master under his account.

And just when he was about to stop everyone, those thugs who became angry from embarrassment found that they were unharmed, and then came back and directly attacked the enchantment.

"Puff puff puff~~~" Seeing that the people inside didn't respond to their attacks, these thugs were only focused on attacking with all their strength, and didn't think about defense at all. He used all his strength, so after three times the attack returned, all of them fell to the ground withered.

"Actively defending and countering the magic barrier, my God! How is this possible? This defensive barrier has been lost for thousands of years. Who are these people? They actually have this kind of magic barrier." The second-level sanctuary When the magician saw this scene, his eyes widened in shock, and he blurted out in disbelief.

"Master! Is this active defense and counter magic enchantment very powerful?" The city lord is a warrior, and he doesn't know much about magic, let alone this new term that he has never heard of.So, he opened his mouth and asked the master.

"Awesome? More than powerful? If we master this magical enchantment, then this war against the undead army will undergo a reversal change. Think about it. Once the undead army attacks, we will arrange this Once the undead approach the enchantment, they will be bounced away. And if the undead want to attack the enchantment, they will automatically receive a strong counterattack. At that time, as long as we provide enough magic power to the enchantment, those undead will be killed by ourselves How powerful is this?" the second-level magician in the sanctuary said to the city lord.

It's just that, just after he finished speaking, both the little cliff and the six demon guards gave him "you are an idiot" look.Obviously, this magician is too idealistic.Not to mention, this triple counterattack enchantment requires a god-level master to set up this rigid condition.Even humans on the mainland can deploy this magic, and use the automatic counterattack of this enchantment to resist the attack of the undead army attacking the entire city's defense line.What a huge number the required magic power will be.Maybe all the magicians of mankind get together to provide magic support to a city, maybe it's almost enough.

This kind of active defensive barrier is rarely used in the two worlds of gods and demons. Under normal circumstances, it is used when a real master expresses his disdain for the opponent. to avoid harassment.After setting up this kind of enchantment, as long as the opponent has the person who arranged the enchantment, with [-]% strength, they can break the enchantment.If you can't even break the enchantment of the other party, and you are still clamoring there, then you can only bring yourself to humiliate yourself.

But Bi Fang's current situation is like this, the strength of the two sides is obviously not on the same level, so the magic guards naturally set up this kind of enchantment that despises the other party, allowing the other party to attack at will.

For this kind of rookie, they personally acted, not only would they be suspected of bullying the weak, but it would also make Bi Fang have an opinion on them.But now?The enchantment will not run to bite people. If you attack the enchantment and get injured or die by the enchantment's counterattack, that's what you found yourself, and they can't be blamed.

"Stop! Today is to celebrate the victory of the human race in the battle of Huohaiyundu. What are you doing here? Leave me alone." At this time, the city lord knew the strength of the opponent, and at the same time, he also mastered a very powerful magic. It was not something that I could provoke, so I immediately repelled my own people and the thugs of other nobles without giving face to other nobles.

For those minions who were injured or died, they were naturally dragged away.After a brief cleaning, the city lord asked people to officially start the bonfire dance.

It's just that he is destined to not be able to enjoy the dance properly tonight.But Bi Fang and Xiao Moya were not affected.Seeing those people singing and dancing in the cheerful music, both of them felt the joy of body and mind.

And the enchantment that protected them slowly disappeared because they hadn't been attacked for a long time.

"Brother, let's go dancing too!" Little Moya watched the people above dancing cheerful and easy-to-learn dances under the upbeat music, and she felt that she had learned it too, so she encouraged Bi Fangdao.

"Okay! But, I've never danced before." Bi Fang said with a smile.

"What are you afraid of! I won't laugh at you." Little Moya also wanted to see Bi Fang dancing, and immediately became more enthusiastic.Pulling Bi conveniently went directly to the dancing area.They were originally in the front row, because, in order to prevent someone from sneaking up on the nobles, there is a five-meter buffer zone in front of the nobles' seats, which is a blank area, and dancing civilians are not allowed to set foot in this area.Of course, if nobles want to dance, they can dance in this dedicated area.Of course, you can also go inside and dance with everyone, but these nobles who think they are noble don't bother to dance this kind of dance. If they really want to dance, they will dance their "" Elegant" waltz.They are even less likely to crowd dance with what they consider a pariah.

Bi Fang and Xiao Moya are not interested in dancing the waltz, and besides, Bi Fang doesn't know how to do it either.Although when he was in the magic school, the school had a special ballroom dancing class, but Bi Fang had no interest in it or talent, and after such a long time, he had long forgotten it.Or the simple and cheerful dances performed by the civilians inside are more enjoyable.Therefore, Bi Fang and Xiao Moya directly entered the civilian circle.

Commoners are very tolerant. Although they saw that Bi Fang and Xiao Moya came from the seat of the nobles, they still did not refuse Bi Fang and Xiao Moya to join.As for the accident that happened just now, not everyone saw it.

Bi Fang held Xiao Moya's hand on one side, and a strange girl's hand on the other, dancing to the rhythm.But I have to say that people have the problem of high-sightedness and low-handedness. When I was down there, I felt that this dance was really simple to die, but after I came up, Bi Fang's dance was completely out of tune.It made Xiao Moya giggle on the sidelines.

Fortunately, the people in front of him are very friendly, not only reminding Bi Fang when to turn around and when to change direction, but also giving him encouragement.

This kind of dance is really not complicated, when Bi Fang lets go, he can dance in style very quickly.

Bi Fang and Little Moya were dancing on the stage. The Lich King Maya Lulaco and the six magic guards were still sitting in place. They didn't accompany Bi Fang and Little Moya to protect them because they knew that they were there No one can hurt their master.

It's better to let their masters play freely and happily on it.They didn't keep up, but it didn't mean they were mentally relaxed. They were always paying attention to the changes in the entire venue.

"Master, be careful! There are undead assassins!" At this moment, the Lich King Maya Lulaco, who was drinking a small wine, suddenly frowned and shouted loudly to Bi Fang.

Bi Fang, who was having fun dancing with Little Cliff and grinning from ear to ear, was taken aback when he heard Lich King Maya Lulaco's words, and the "Overlord Strength" in his body was mobilized instantly.

"Little cliff, protect the people below!" Bi Fang pulled the little cliff, and the two flew directly into the sky.

And at this time, more than 60 black bone arrows with ear-piercing screams were shot out at the same time outside the venue.

"Bone Screaming Demon, City Master be careful, these are very high-level undead. Each of them has strength not weaker than mine. Moreover, they are archers, and they just restrain me." Seeing more than 60 screams in the sky The black bone arrow, the second-level magician of the sanctuary beside the city lord hurriedly protected the city lord, pulled the city lord down as far as possible, and whispered to him.
