Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens

After the continuous battles, the inner city of the Acropolis was in chaos. Finally, before the early morning of the third day, as Shen Ji and a large group of people left the Acropolis, they were able to take a breather.

However, after Shen Ji and a large group of people left, they were unable to truly restore peace to the Acropolis, and the Acropolis was now in chaos. A large number of warriors were mobilized to search for the whereabouts of Zuo Feng and others. They only found out the news an hour or two after Shen Ji had left the Acropolis.

Counting the days before when they were chased by a horde of beasts, they had not had any rest for a day or two. For not getting any reward, they only dared to curse in their hearts. But the problem is that many people soon realized that they didn't even have a home.

Due to successive battles, many houses in the inner city of the Acropolis were destroyed. The battle between Shen Ji and Zheng Lu, including Zhu Tao's later participation, extended from Duobao Trading House to the east gate of the inner city. nearby.

If the battle between the eighth-level warriors at the Yu Nian stage and the eighth-level transformed monsters had not started in a stable place in the acropolis, I am afraid that the inner city would have been completely turned into ruins by now.

It's just that the current situation is not much better, because those families and forces with strength and background, their families and mansions are close to the center of the city, and the place where the war caused the most serious damage is precisely the area in the center of the city.

Among them, the most serious damage was caused by Zheng Lu and Zhu Tao's joint attack. However, because Zuo Feng and Shan Ji were in another space, the attack directly covered a radius of seven or eight miles.

When many warriors returned, not only were their mansions and courtyards gone, but their relatives and clan members were also slaughtered. The problem is that the person doing this is not the enemy they are looking for, but the high priest of their own empire.

Faced with all this, some people almost went crazy and had deep resentment towards the high priest and the sacrificial hall. At the same time, there are still people who bury this anger and hatred in their hearts, and they have to wait for the right opportunity to retaliate.

Zheng Lu was too lazy to pay attention to the dissatisfaction, anger, and even resentment of these warriors in the city. He had no energy to pay attention to it. There were two things he was most eager to do now. One is to report what happened in the Acropolis to the empire. Things have reached this point, and even a high priest has died. For such a big thing, he, Zheng Lu, must report it to the empire.

After he reported the information about the Acropolis, Zheng Lu began to retreat to recover. He must now seize all the time to restore his strength.

Although the mutual promise was for five years, what he was most worried about was that the other party would immediately retaliate without giving him any time to breathe. Before the Ye Lin Empire receives new support and other high priests arrive, the entire New Hunting County must ensure that it does not fall into the hands of the monsters and the Icefield Clan.

Regarding the Icefield Clan, Zheng Lu was quite relieved. After all, the Icefield Clan was almost extinct at the hands of the Ye Lin Empire hundreds of years ago. According to the chief priest, there are only some remnants of the Icefield clan, which have hid back in the far north where they originated, and are no longer a threat at all.

As for the monster beast clan in the Tianping Mountains, according to the intelligence over the years, the eighth-level monsters are already the strongest in the Tianping Mountains. I am afraid that the strongest one in terms of strength is just the eighth-level transformed flash wolf beast that we have fought against before.

Zheng Lu believed that if the two sides had another chance to fight, he would be absolutely sure to defeat the other side by using the "Armor of Dark Night". The previous failure was entirely due to that damn "Punishment of Order."

Of course, in addition to these most important matters, Zheng Lu also made arrangements for the Acropolis. Things within the Acropolis were handed over to Zeng Jiang and Linhu, with Zeng Jiang as the main decision-maker, and Jiang Xin and Burka cooperated.

In the previous battle, Zheng Lu naturally knew about the escape of Lin Hu, Jiang Xin and others. But given the current situation in the Acropolis, he was too lazy to delve into it further.

Zeng Jiang risked the lives of nearly eighty of his men, and even his own life was almost taken away. Now he finally got his reward. Zheng Lu seemed to just let Zeng Jiang be in charge of guarding the city, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that Zheng Lu had the intention to let Zeng Jiang succeed Wu Tian and become the new master of Yu Pavilion.

Zeng Jiang was naturally secretly happy in his heart, and on the surface he was working even harder, while working hard to deploy manpower to repair the sacrificial branch hall and the city lord's palace as soon as possible. At the same time, they were looking for formation masters in the city to reinforce the city defense formation.

His idea was certainly good, but the city defense formation came from the Soul Sacrifice Hall and the Great Soul Sacrifice. Even if there were sufficient materials, ordinary people could not complete the reinforcement. After the reinforcement formation failed, Zeng Jiang sent his men to contact Xinshou County. Firstly, he informed them of what had happened in the Acropolis, and at the same time, he also asked for help from Xinshou County.

The Ye Lin Empire will send strong men over, but the closest place that can mobilize a large number of strong men in a short period of time is Shinkari County.

Whether it was Zheng Lu or Zeng Jiang, at this time, they undoubtedly focused their attention on the inner city or outside the acropolis, but ignored the middle area of ​​the outer city. Zeng Jiang handed over all the guards and guards in the outer city, and the main force of Hongcheng City had just arrived.

Of course, not everyone had the same idea, at least Linhu and Boka, who focused their attention on the outer city after Zheng Lu began to retreat. At the same time, they also quietly sent their own henchmen out of the outer city.

It wasn't that they had guessed that Zuo Feng and others were staying in the outer city, but that they had identified Zuo Feng as his prey. Even if there was no trace of Zuo Feng at the moment, they believed in one thing. The Zuojia villager who had never heard anything was outside. The opportunity in the city is very good.

If you want to dig out Zuo Feng's secrets, then the people in Zuojia Village and Zuo Feng's family are undoubtedly the best bargaining chips.

After experiencing the previous changes in the Acropolis, in addition to fear and fear of Zuo Feng, they had an uncontrollable desire. Lin Hu and Bo Ka originally only guessed that Zuo Feng had a huge secret, but now they are completely sure.

A transformed monster that had just reached the eighth level was able to deal with two strong men in the mind-controlling stage at the same time, especially the two high priests wearing the "Armor of the Dark Night". Instead, it ended up with an astonishing result of one death and one serious injury. Maybe it was the flash wolf beast that attracted the "Sky Ring", but being able to use it was clearly Zuo Feng's method.

Now Zuo Feng, to Linhu and Boka, is a huge treasure. No matter how much price and energy they spend, they are determined to dig out this treasure and make it their own.

Under this huge temptation, the "glass" duo Linhu and Boka started to join forces again. It's just that the losses of the two men are too serious now, so a new member is now added to this combination, he is the Lord of the Acropolis, Jiang Xin.

As a result, the form of the entire Acropolis has quietly differentiated. Zheng Lu, who was ostensibly in charge of the Acropolis, was recovering from his injuries in seclusion and ignored the outside world, and his existence became dispensable. ,

Zeng Jiang, who gained power, became the de facto controller of the Acropolis. But the power he can mobilize, or the people who can actually do things for him, is very few. A large number of Benxiao Pavilion warriors were directly sacrificed and died in the battle between Zheng Lu, Zhu Tao and Shan Ji. There were less than thirty warriors left.

The other city guards basically obeyed Jiang Xin's orders, but Jiang Xin was disobeying Zeng Jiangyang, and his main energy had been transferred to the outer city with Linhu and Boka.

When most of the powerful people gathered in the outer city, the outer city began to become lively without even realizing it. The chaos in the inner city for the past two days has not had much impact on the outer city, except when Zheng Lu forcibly broke through the formation seal, which caused some damage near the west city gate.

However, after two consecutive days of chaos in the inner city, the outer city ushered in a bustle that no one expected. It can also be said that after the Acropolis released the formation seal, there was a "shopping". Cargo craze.”

After years of development, Acropolis has become the largest cargo distribution center second only to Shinkari County. Various medicinal materials, materials from monster beasts, and even live monster beasts are sold here, and some materials will even appear in trading houses of other empires in the near future.

Because of the geographical conditions and advantages of the Acropolis, in the past few years, there has been a gradual trend of catching up and surpassing Shinkari County in terms of goods sales.

The most lively time of year in New Hunting County is during the two hunting seasons, one in late winter and the other in early autumn. Whenever the Ye Lin Empire carries out a large-scale hunting, a large amount of supplies will be sold immediately. Among them, the Ye Lin Empire is the most profitable, and there are also some forces belonging to various parties who can also get a share of the pie.

The original Duobao Trading House, the Sacrifice Branch Hall and the City Lord's Mansion, such forces would secretly send out hunting teams, and at the same time, take advantage of the large number of people coming to New Hunting County to purchase goods, and quickly sell them out.

Because a large amount of income is in the hands of the Ye Lin Empire, other forces will not be noticed if they fish in troubled waters. The forces in the inner city have hidden a large number of monsters mainly to wait until the hunting is over at the end of winter and then start selling them secretly.

But now, an accident has not only ended the late winter hunting hastily, but also turned the entire inner city of the Acropolis upside down. The largest trading house in Acropolis, Duobao Trading House, was turned into ruins. Even the several miles around Duobao Trading House were turned into ruins.

There were many other large auction houses, trading houses, and shops selling medicinal materials and monster materials, all of which were completely reduced to nothing under the bombardment of Zheng Lu and Zhu Tao.

A large number of goods in the inner city are gone, but the traders who come from all over the empire, even from all over the mainland, will never return empty-handed. They traveled long distances to buy goods here and sell them in various places to make a profit. If they returned empty-handed, they would suffer huge losses.

Now that the inner city is in ruins, these people are focusing on the outer city, which has hardly been affected. The original outer city also had a lot of goods, but it was never as large as the inner city, and it was always suppressed by the inner city.

Now that the inner city has too much to take care of itself, all the shops in the outer city, knowing that the opportunity has come, have taken out all their goods. Suddenly, traders from all walks of life gathered in the outer city and set off a vigorous shopping frenzy.

But amid this lively and chaotic shopping frenzy, some people have quietly started taking action.
