Divine Martial Saint

After settling the matters with the daughter of the city lord, Shi Hao brought Li Tao out of the city, and the sky above Maple City began to turn.

In the beginning, they did not discover anything out of the ordinary. In addition, they were here to investigate the terrain, so they did not have any doubts regarding this situation.

However, after walking around for a long time, they felt that something was amiss, because the number of troops surrounding the Maple City was simply too little.

Logically speaking, since this group of bandits wanted to attack Maple City, they would definitely send a large group of people to surround them for 4 weeks.

Only by doing this could they prevent the people inside the Maple City from escaping, and the house, the Maple City, from being surrounded.

But according to Shi Hao's analysis of the situation this time, this group of bandits did not seem to be from Maple City.

Could it be that their attack on the Maple City was just a smokescreen? They had other plans for this place.

The more he thought about this question, the more Shi Hao felt that it was possible. After all, they had already served the Maple City for many days.

Logically speaking, even if some of them haven't arrived yet, after so many days, you should still have arrived.

For bandits, if they really wanted to attack a place, they couldn't stay there for too long.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his previous discrepancies were correct. This group of bandits had come to this place.

It must be because they found something extraordinary in this place that they used the excuse of attacking the Maple City to secretly take that thing away.

Shi Hao would definitely not be able to understand why those people ambushed an expert who possessed a mount onto the road.

Just the experts who owned mounts were enough to deal a devastating blow to the Maple City.

With just the little amount of people in Maple City, they would definitely not be able to defend against the attacks of these bandits.

After Shi Hao thought about this problem, he decided to search everywhere for a good reason, because he felt that if it was him alone, he might be able to discover their secret.

Since they were in this place, they needed to take something away, and they even wasted so many days.

In fact, they even created such a huge battle formation, making it even more difficult for them to sacrifice themselves.

This meant that the item that they wanted to take away was most definitely extremely difficult to obtain.

That was why they were able to create such a big commotion, making others think that they had come to this place to take over Maple City's territory.

After Shi Hao circled around the inner circle of Maple City, he did not discover anything suspicious, even some suspicious locations.

However, he had not given up at this point. Since he had his suspicions, he should check for himself.

As a result, Shi Hao controlled himself and flew to the sky, even further outside. Like this, he circled around Maple City, and the left turn became bigger and bigger.

Shi Hao's goal was to let go of every nook and cranny, and not let go of any suspicious places.

When Shi Hao first came here, there were a lot of bandits outside of Maple City, but at this time, the number of soldiers had actually decreased.

This also pointed to a problem, which was that the goods the bandits wanted were very likely to be obtained soon.

At the same time, it was possible that they were in a hurry and urgently needed manpower, which was why they had transferred the troops surrounding the Maple City.

However, because the Mayor and the rest were trapped in the city and didn't know what was going on outside, they didn't dare to rashly attack.

In addition, when Yan Song and the others walked out, they were intimidated by the enemies outside, which gave the City Lord a certain level of deterrence.

Shi Hao's plan today was to find the purpose of this group of bandits' concentration camp even if he couldn't find them.

Shi Hao did not believe that this group of bandits would quietly withdraw their troops when they did not achieve their goals.

At the same time, he did not believe that if these criminals were to attack Maple City, they would reduce the number of troops surrounding the Maple City.

They were already especially wary of the Maple City and the people outside. The more time came, the more they couldn't relax.

However, at such a critical juncture, they had actually managed to evacuate these people who were on guard. This meant that the place should be in a rush and needed more manpower.

Shi Hao believed that at this critical juncture, he might still be able to find some clues.

Otherwise, they would have definitely hidden that place completely away and Shi Hao wouldn't have been able to get close to it.

Therefore, Shi Hao felt that this was the best time to look for that place.

"Boss, where are we going? Are we really going to run away?"

He felt that Shi Hao's actions were extremely incomprehensible.

At first, Shi Hao only said that he would like to stroll around, and take a look at the surrounding terrain.

But looking at Shi Hao's current state, he did not seem like he was looking at the terrain at all, as he was moving further and further away from the Maple City.

Even at this time, Li Tao was still a little suspicious. Could it be that Shi Hao was really planning to escape?

After all, the daughter of the previous City Lord had suspected them like this, and it had already been quite some time since Shi Hao had brought him out of the Moon Slaughter Devil Nest.

From this, it could be seen that Shi Hao was gradually leaving the Maple City. In other words, at this time, he might really be fleeing the Maple City.

Because in Li Tao's opinion, no matter how strong Shi Hao was, he would never be able to defeat these criminals.

After all, Shi Hao was alone, even if he was included, he would still be unable to change the outcome of the battle.

The Blood Underworld Sect had previously bid for so many outer disciples, but it did not affect the battle in the slightest.

The lord of Maple City, together with their subordinates, had no way to deal with the current situation.

Just by relying on Shi Hao's ability alone, he would definitely be unable to affect this battle in any way.

As a result, Li Tao was not only suspicious, he was even more certain of the thoughts in his mind.

He felt that no matter who faced death, their own life would be more important.

It was impossible for him to have sacrificed his life for nothing just because of a task in the sect.

If staying in this place was their end, then why did they have to stay here?

As a result, when your suspicions gradually increased, he asked this question to Shi Hao.

"Don't you feel that something is amiss, there aren't many troops surrounding the Maple City, if it were just these people, it would be a simple matter for the City Lord and the rest to break out of the encirclement."

"However, since the City Lord and the others have always felt that there is no hope of breaking through, this means that the number of people who surrounded the Maple City before could not be so few."

"I'm thinking about a question. If these bandits are planning to attack the Maple City, why would they reduce their strength?"

"Do you have anything wrong with the current situation?"

Shi Hao did not want to tell Li Tao the problem at hand.

This was because as long as he thought carefully about these problems, he would be able to come up with an answer.

If you couldn't even think of these things, then his IQ could be imagined. Even if he became his own servant, it wouldn't be of much help to him.

"Actually, when I first came out, I already felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't figure out what it was."

"If you didn't say it, I really wouldn't know. However, after hearing your reminder, I really feel like there's some sort of scheme behind it."

"Boss, tell me, why are they surrounding such a large city and not attacking it?"

"With the strength of this group of bandits, it should be easy for them to defeat the Maple City."

Under Shi Hao's reminder, Li Tao also realized that something was wrong, but he could not figure out the reason behind it.

"I can explain it to you, but the bandits here should not be interested in the Maple City."

"They came here at the beginning, perhaps for some purpose of their own."

"As for attacking Maple City, it should be a method for them to conceal their intentions."

"Thus, in my opinion, there is, after all, something treacherous about their abnormal attitude."

"Therefore, since we've come out today, let's take a walk and see if we can discover their conspiracy."

"Although I don't have much hope for today's purpose, I still want to take a look around."

"Who knows, maybe we can find out the secret of the woman in the next moment. You know, those places have long been sealed off by bandits."

"Anyone else wanting to come to this place is simply a fantasy. We only want to do so because we have the convenience of flying mount."

"Moreover, even if others rode on flying mount s and I did not specially come here to investigate, it would be impossible for them to specially observe this place."

"Let's not talk too much for now. From now on, try not to say anything, because I feel that some things are about to be revealed."

Shi Hao felt more and more that something big was about to happen.

However, this kind of prediction was only Shi Hao's intuition, so the current Shi Hao, was afraid of something going wrong.

Hence, he had to be careful when talking to Li Tao who was beside him.

This was because the altitude they were flying at was not far from the ground. If they continued to speak, the experts on the ground would very likely be able to sense their presence.

Although they were flying high in the sky, it should be easy for those on the ground to find out.

However, when an ordinary person was on the ground, they would rarely look up at the sky.

The purpose of Shi Hao and the others coming out was to familiarize themselves with the surrounding terrain.

Thus, this time around, the flying distance from the ground wasn't too far. It was only a bit more than 1000 meters.

It was easy to see them from this height.

However, under normal circumstances, people wouldn't look around randomly.

In addition, even if these people looked up and saw them, they wouldn't be able to do anything.
