Game World: Am I a toy of the system?

As the signal was sent out, the flare exploded in the air.

The atmosphere of the entire Wangjing City has changed.

An old man walked out of the courtyard carrying a load on his shoulder, his eyes flashing with a chilling light under his straw hat.

The old man came to a small alley, put down his burden, took out a short torch from a straw basket, lit it and stuck it into the ground.

Looking up at the guards running past on the street, the old man silently opened the sackcloth on the straw basket, which was filled with earthenware jars containing kerosene.

The old man twisted a wick and inserted it into the earthenware jar, then picked up the torch and lit the wick. Then he looked up at the defenders running on the street and threw it out with force.

boom!boom!

There was the sound of dozens of earthenware jars breaking.

There is an ordinary person like this old man in every street and alley.

The fire broke out instantly.

The old man ignored the screams coming from the street. After throwing all the earthen jars in the straw basket out, he left with his load on his shoulder.

The same thing happened to several other defenders. They suffered heavy losses before they even got close to Yao Jun.

At the same time, more than 4000 people from all sides were also attacked from the dark.

Someone was leading a team through the streets and alleys, and suddenly in an alley, he was shot and killed by a crossbow arrow from above.

When the team was hurrying on their way, suddenly a jar of golden juice fell from the sky, making them want to die.

Various obstructions from the dark caused this group of people to suffer heavy losses and seriously slowed down their progress.

Even so, in the south city of Wangjing, in front of the inn outside the market, blood had already flowed like a river!

Arrows of different styles and specifications were scattered on the streets and houses along the streets. Dozens of war horses that were used as human shields were killed even though they were wearing armor on their backs.

The golden armor was stained with blood and the black clothes were torn, but the soldiers guarding the inn still kept the defenders out of the inn.

The ground was soaked with blood, and the grass on the street had been dyed red.

At the other end of the street, the heavy halberd in his hand smashed to the ground, and the red robe on his body turned black, and no one knew how much of it was his own blood and how much was the enemy's blood.

"Who can kill me!"

Yao Jun's roar rang out on the street, and facing thousands of fully armed defenders, he launched a charge alone.

He is indeed the unrivaled young master in the world!

The general in the rear of the garrison was overwhelmed by the momentum and lost some of his courage. However, he thought of the promise of the man behind him, and with red eyes, he roared: "Light the fire and burn him to death!"

In an instant, fire broke out in the buildings on both sides of the street, and then spread to the city.

The people screamed suddenly!

Some people ran out of their homes in panic, but as soon as they appeared on the street, they were killed by soldiers holding sharp blades!

Some people wanted to put out the fire with water, but the fire was too big and it was just a drop in the bucket!

In order to kill Yao Jun and for their own interests, this group of people have disregarded everything, even if it means destroying Wangjing City!

Governor Zhang in the inn watched this scene with heartache, tears streaming down his face uncontrollably.

"Crazy! They are crazy!"

This was the first time that Chen Huaming had experienced such a situation, and he was also extremely frightened, but his integrity still made him stand like a javelin, his face as gloomy as water, and only a hint of panic could be seen in his eyes.

On the second floor, even though all the arrows were aimed at the golden-armored soldiers below, there were still stray arrows shot up.

Jialuo spread a blanket on the ground, moved Chen Xi from the bed to the blanket, and then moved a table and stool to block the window.

Although the injury on his leg still hurt a little, it was much better. Chen Xi stretched out his injured leg, supported himself on the ground and sat up, and asked, "Jia Luo, what's the situation outside now?"

Jia Luo leaned against the wall, lifted the wooden window and looked out. His expression suddenly tensed up, and he said quickly, "There's a big fire over there, the fire is huge and spreading very fast. We have to go downstairs."

Chen Xi's face turned cold: "Setting fire in the city? Aren't they afraid of destroying Wangjing City?"

Many houses in this era were made of earth and wood structures, which were very flammable. Once a fire started, it was not easy to extinguish it.

Jia Luo gnashed his teeth and said, "These guys will do anything to kill the master!"

"So that Madam knows, the reason why the Lord was ambushed in the North was because he was betrayed. Someone colluded with the Northern Barbarians and wanted to use them to kill the Lord."

"Fortunately, the Lord's fighting power is unparalleled in the world, and his luck is also good, so he managed to escape the disaster, but his peerless appearance was ruined."

Chen Xi clenched his fists and said harshly, "I will get my revenge one day."

Jia Luo: "Yes, I will definitely take revenge!"

After saying that, Jialuo reacted, turned his head to look at Chen Xi, and frowned slightly. He felt that Chen Xi had changed a little, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the guest room, interrupting Jialuo's thoughts, and then the voice of the spy came from outside the door: "Sir, there is a fire in the direction of the city."

Jia Luo's expression changed. He knew that Ling Xiao had taken action. He thought that the South City Gate would be breached soon. He said in a slightly more relaxed tone, "Got it. Continue to gather intelligence. Be careful."

Secret Envoy: "Yes, I know." Then the sound of footsteps receding was heard outside the door.

After his men left, Jia Luo told Chen Xi the news and continued, "Wangjing City has not seen any fighting for a long time. Both Governor Zhang and Chen Huaming are ignorant of military affairs, and the garrison's fighting power is very poor."

"We should be able to capture the city soon, and then we'll be safe."

Then he walked to the window again, observed the fire outside and said: "The only thing we have to worry about now is the fire. We have to control it as soon as possible, otherwise the city will be in chaos."

Wangjing City is very large, not much smaller than the capital of Chen State, with a permanent population of over 100,000. If the fire continues to spread, it will definitely cause great chaos, and it is unknown how many people will be killed or injured.

Chen Xi frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "Even if there is a way to control the fire, we have to get rid of the defenders outside first."

Jia Luo sighed and said, "Yes, they are all crazy now. They don't care about anything and only want to kill the master. They don't care about the people in the city."

Chen Xi raised his head and looked at Jia Luo seriously: "I do have a way, and it's very simple. We just need to pass the news to the ears of the people."

Jia Luo was surprised and asked, "Madam, do you have a solution?"

Chen Xi nodded: "Well, can your people send the message out?"

"can!"

Because he was on the second floor and lying on the ground, Chen Xi could not see the fire outside. He could only vaguely see the thick black smoke through the gap in the window.

She couldn't help but sigh again that life was really not easy for the people in this era because they became abandoned pawns at any time due to the power struggles among the upper class.

There are more than 100,000 people in this city. How could those people be so cruel!

In modern times, Chen Xi had also seen many dirty wars, and those people used every possible means, even sparing no children!

But that is mostly in the news and happens abroad. People who enjoy peace at home cannot understand that kind of despair.

Now Chen Xi truly felt what the ruthlessness of water and fire was, what inhumanity was, and what war was!

After organizing his thoughts, Chen Xi said, "The method is very simple. We just need to cut off the fire path."

"Without something to burn, the fire naturally took control."

"We just need to demolish all the buildings around the fire and create a circle of open space."

"It's just that this requires a lot of people, so it depends on whether the news can get out and whether the people will work together."

Jialuo thought about it carefully and decided that it would be simple to just pass the message on, but she didn't know if this method would work.

Moreover, the city is in chaos now, and I don’t know if the people can unite together. It would be better if there is someone who can take charge of the overall situation.

Jialuo suddenly thought of the governor Zhang and Chen Huaming downstairs. These two people were enough to take charge of the situation, but it would be difficult to send them out from here.
