903 Beginning (2)
“Go!”
The captain saw a few little crocodiles with blood all over their mouths and teeth crawling over. He immediately pulled the young soldier to the signal tower and pulled open a mechanism, revealing the slide inside.
This was the passageway for the people on the city wall to descend the city wall.
After the two of them slid down, they saw that there were already many little crocodiles fighting against the reinforcements at the bottom of the city wall. The young soldier was about to participate in the battle when he was immediately pulled back by the captain!
“You’re courting death!”
“This way!”
“But—”
Although the young soldier also wanted to live, he realized that there seemed to be only 10 to 20 little crocodiles here. Even if they were all Level 3, there was strength in numbers. One person and one spear could still deal with these crocodiles.
“But what buts?!”
“Have you forgotten about those Level 8 creatures outside?”
“How long do you think we can last?”
The young soldier immediately stopped talking.
“What should we do?”
“Can… can we still go to the spatial gate now?”
“Can we get out of here?”
Hearing this, the person on the other end was amused.
“Can you afford it? Going to the neighboring city requires at least a Level 3 crystal core.”
“Do you have it?”
Hearing this, the young soldier immediately despaired.
A Level 3 crystal core costs 100,000 credits. The two of them might be able to gather so much money together, but there was no place to buy it now!
During this period of time, the price of crystal cores had been increasing.
It was said that there were big businessmen from the Central Province purchasing crystal cores from various cities at a premium.
Therefore, even if they had money, they could not buy crystal cores now.
“No…”
“Then come with me to that house!”
“Boss, can we go in?”
“Just push it open. I don’t think it’s locked.”
“Oh, oh…”
The two of them arrived at the Beast Taming Dojo and pushed open the door on the side with all their might.
Looking at the empty inside, the two of them were very confused.
“What… What is this building doing here?”
“Nothing is certain. It might be some big shot who built it on a whim.”
“But… these are all made of soil. They shouldn’t be able to stop those mutated beasts, right?”
“Of course!”
The captain took out two things that looked like shovels from his backpack.
“Dig with this.”
“Dig two deep pits and let’s hide in them.”
“Do you still have any rations on you?”
The soldier nodded blankly.
“That’s good. Hurry up and do it. This should be able to hold them off for a while.”
The two of them started digging.
At the same time, in the joint command room of the Human Alliance Government and the army in Iron Rock City, the command room that should have been discussing countermeasures had long been empty.
Behind the cabinet, behind a secret passage, was a small spatial door.
At this moment, the spatial door had already lost its color.
Obviously, it had been abandoned.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the conference room.
“Mr. Mayor, Mayor Gu from Central Province is here.”
The secretary’s voice sounded from outside the door.
But there was no response from inside.
The secretary called out again.
Gu Zheng and Lin Ye, who were standing outside the door, frowned.
Gu Zheng took a few steps forward and sensed for a moment. Then, his face immediately darkened.
“There’s no one in there.”
As he spoke, he walked over and kicked open the door of the conference room.
The secretary, who had wanted to stop him, looked at the empty meeting room and his face instantly turned pale.
Lin Ye pulled Alicia and followed him into the meeting room.
Then, he saw the undisguised secret passage and the abandoned small spatial door behind it.
“Damn it!”
Gu Zheng could not help but curse.
“You’re saying that the city wall was already attacked ten minutes ago?”
The pale secretary nodded.
“What about the Beast Taming Dojo? Has it been built?”
The secretary looked at him in confusion.
Just as Gu Zheng could not help but want to make a move, the secretary finally remembered.
He quickly said,
“It’s the building built at the city gate. It’s already built.”
Gu Zheng heaved a sigh of relief.
“Take us there.”
“Yes!”
The secretary heaved a sigh of relief.
From the looks of it, he had saved his life for the time being.
Just now, he really thought that the highest authority in Central Province would slap him to death.
Seeing that there were still many people busy at the Human Alliance City Hall, Gu Zheng was really filled with killing intent.
Fortunately, he had a sudden impulse today and wanted to go to the border cities of the East Continent to take a look. He wanted to activate the dojos in these places first and then move from the two sides to the middle.
This way, even if a beast tide appeared in the middle city, they could immediately organize people to evacuate to the cities at the side.
Moreover, after investigating Central Province and some other cities over the past few days, they discovered that the number of mutated beasts awakening outside each city was different.
The more the city was on the periphery, the more mutated beasts there were.
That was why Gu Zheng wanted to visit the border city earlier today.
There were no problems with the cities in the north and west.
The easternmost Eastern Sea City already had a dojo, and many mercenaries had gone there.
That was why he chose Iron Rock City City, which was located in the southernmost part.
However, as soon as he arrived, he realized that the entire city was in chaos.
The spatial gate was filled with people who wanted to escape.
However, when he wanted to go to the city gate from the Human Alliance government building, the secretary in charge of driving looked at the chaotic crowd on the road and was instantly embarrassed.
Lin Ye glanced at the road that was blocked by people and cars. Then, he got out of the car and took out Qiong Qi’s Beast Taming Card.
In the next second, Qiong Qi, who was already at Level 6, appeared on the street.
It shocked the people who were blocking the road and preparing to escape.
Many people even shouted, “Mutated beasts have already attacked.” Then, they fled crazily.
“Come up. You’ll show me the way.”
Looking at the huge white mutated beast that was also three meters tall when it squatted down, the secretary’s legs went weak.
In the end, it was Gu Zheng who pulled him up from Qiong Qi’s wings.
“Which direction?”
“That… that way…”
The trembling secretary pointed. Then, Qiong Qi flapped its wings and flew over.
A few minutes later, Lin Ye, who was on Qiong Qi’s back, saw the city wall and some mutated beasts that had already begun to appear on the city wall.
At this moment, there were not many defenders on the entire city wall.
The soldiers below the city wall were all like headless flies. As they did not have any command from the back, they could only think of killing as many as they could. Then, they focused their fire on the mutated beasts that fell from the city wall.
However, when a gecko-like thing that was more than ten meters long climbed down from the city wall, the soldiers suffered.
The giant gecko gently stuck out its tongue, and its 20 to 30 meters long tongue pierced through a line of soldiers like an armor-piercing bullet.
When Gu Zheng, who was on Qiong Qi’s back, saw this scene, his gaze was very solemn.
“A Level 8 Bullet Gecko.”
Lin Ye did not say anything. Instead, he asked Qiong Qi to lower its altitude slightly. Then, he took out Blackie, the Great Sage, and Little Tanuki’s Beast Taming Cards.
Blackie and the Great Sage were aimed at the gecko that was still lying on the city wall.
They directly fell from the sky, wanting to give it a huge blow.
However, the gecko had obviously noticed these two uninvited guests.
The tongue shot straight at Blackie.
Ding ~
Blackie’s body flashed with golden light.
It blocked the extremely sharp tongue.
The Great Sage slashed at the tongue.
However, the other party dodged it.
Obviously, the speed of the bullet gecko’s tongue was astonishing.
After Blackie and the Great Sage landed, the soldiers looked at the two “experts” who didn’t look like humans at all. Only then did they look like they had survived a calamity.
Otherwise, they would probably have been pierced to death by the bullet gecko.
“I’ll go to the dojo to take a look. Mayor Gu, be careful.”
“Yes.”
