Chapter 145: Taking action, the Lord of Zimeng City (500 orders for additional updates)
Jiang Chen opened the door and asked with a hint of displeasure: "What's the matter?"
"Respect Guest, I'm sorry to disturb you. I am Jin Jiu, the manager of Yangquan Inn."
The manager bowed and apologized, and then immediately said his purpose: "The beast tide is coming, please. The city lord's palace has ordered that all outsiders in the city need to be registered. If there is an emergency, strong people may need to be recruited to defend the city. Of course, you are the most distinguished guest of our 'Yangquan Inn', unless it is a life or death situation, otherwise you will never be allowed to do so. You will be recruited."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but frown, and communicated with Jarvis in his mind to confirm that this was indeed the case.
Every time darkness falls and a tide of beasts attacks, it is a life-and-death crisis for the indigenous cities on the planet Viska.
Although the past beast tides have been passed safely, no one knows whether the next beast tide can be defended.
If it cannot be defended, no one in the entire city will survive.
Naturally, in addition to the standing 'city guards', if there is a crisis where the defense line may be breached, the city's senior officials will also recruit civilians and outsiders in the city to participate in the city defense battle. .
Except for children who have no combat effectiveness, the disabled, and the seriously ill, all others who have reached the star level are potential sources of soldiers to defend the city.
However, Zimeng City is considered a big city, and the city guards are also very strong.
It is very rare that civilians in the city need to be recruited to participate in the war, and it may not happen once in a thousand years.
Jiang Chen didn't want to get into trouble and said directly: "My name is 'Li Yao', a cosmic-level wanderer. As for recruitment, unless there is a crisis of breaking the city, don't bother me."
I casually gave a false name to fool him, but the shopkeeper didn’t do anything. After asking more questions, he immediately said respectfully: "Please rest assured, guest, it is just a routine matter. Since the establishment of our 'Yangquan Inn', there has been no record of guests participating in the defense of the city."
"If nothing happens, I will Rest." Jiang Chen issued an order to expel the guests.
The shopkeeper was very sensible, saluted respectfully, and immediately said goodbye: "Sorry to disturb you, this is a small gift, which is our special spirit wine of Purple Dream City, as compensation for disturbing the guests' rest. Then I will not disturb you. I hope the guests You can have a pleasant night."
"Spiritual wine?" Jiang Chen didn't even open the bottle cap and threw the bottle into an empty world ring.
Although Jiang Chen is addicted to alcohol, he also has some problems.
Planet Viska is a 'dangerous' mission world, and Jiang Chen will naturally not pursue pleasure in such a place and put himself in crisis.
Who knows if there is anything wrong with this wine?
In an unfamiliar environment, it is a warrior's instinct to remain vigilant.
After sending the shopkeeper away, Jiang Chen continued to wait patiently.
Through the complete surveillance system, Jarvis perfectly restored the battle outside the city and displayed it in front of Jiang Chen.
During the night, dense herds of ferocious beasts continued to gather from afar and flocked to Purple Dream City.
The city guards continued to attack and killed a large number of ferocious beasts.
But after a group of ferocious beasts died, more ferocious beasts immediately appeared, seemingly endless.
The only good news is that most of the levels of ferocious beasts are not particularly high, mostly between stellar level and cosmic level.
It is very rare to reach the domain master.
But every time a vicious beast at the domain lord level appears, it will force the city guards to consume a lot of force and telekinesis in a joint attack to stop it.
Not long after the offensive and defensive battle began, some relatively weak city guard soldiers were already unable to sustain their force and telekinesis, and had to retreat from the city wall and eat stew. Good ferocious beast meat to replenish physical strength.
The reserve troops were quickly replaced and took over the defense line to prevent any gaps in the defense line.
But it can be seen that the pressure to defend the city is still great.
At the 151st hour, the defense of the east wall was in critical condition, and a Domain Lord flew out of the city to join the front.
At the 273rd hour, the second domain lord went into battle.
The time interval between the first two domain masters' actions was very long. The interval was more than a hundred hours, which is equivalent to several days on earth.
But at the 300th hour when night fell, the impact of the beast tide suddenly increased dramatically. In less than twenty hours, three Territory Lords took action one after another.
At this point, in the entire Purple Dream City, the only strong person who has not taken action is the most powerful 'city lord' in the city.
The five domain lords came out from their respective territories and led the army to fight against the beast tide on the city. In order to avoid being noticed, Jiang Chen had to order all the 'nano detectors' in the city to be activated. Destroyed and turned into real dust.
Fortunately, there is a large detector that can monitor the city. Although the control of details is far inferior to the effect of a large number of nano detectors, it is still no problem to keep an eye on a few domain owners.
Time passed little by little, and the city lord still had no intention of taking action.
With the actions of the remaining five domain masters, the battle against the beast tide also stabilized.
“There are more than twenty hours left, and the night will pass. When day comes and the beast tide dissipates, the range of activities of indigenous humans will expand significantly, and there may be some trouble by then. Take advantage of this opportunity Now, you can take action..."
Jiang Chen counted the time and decided to take action.
The clone hid its whereabouts, condensing its own aura to the extreme, avoiding pedestrians along the way, and cautiously rushed towards the direction of the city lord's palace.
On the other side of the main body, the mechanical legion was quickly released, forming a ring and scattered inside the valley.
In mid-air in the center of the valley, a dark golden aircraft with strange wings like fish fins on both sides was suspended in mid-air.
At this time, the ferocious beasts in this wilderness are all converging in the direction of Purple Dream City, and there are very few ferocious beasts left.
Even if there are some, they have no chance of getting close under the firepower of the Mechanical Legion.
All the mechanical legions present a perfect encirclement formation, surrounding the [Warp Arbiter].
[The Jump Arbiter] The internal psionic energy furnace increases the power to the extreme in just a few seconds and converts it into the power of space.
Violent energy circulated inside the aircraft, which was less than twenty meters in length, vaguely emitting a powerful pressure.
If this energy exploded, it would be enough to completely evaporate an area of thousands of kilometers.
However, as an extremely perfect design, energy control will obviously not happen.
The power of space is compressed to the extreme, perfectly controlled, waiting for the coordinates provided by the clone.
In Zimeng City, Jiang Chen’s clone has arrived outside the city lord’s palace.
Without continuing to hide his whereabouts, Jiang Chen directly took out a [Psychic Shield Generator], turned into a stream of light, and rushed towards the city lord's palace.
Under the monitoring of the detector, the location of the city lord could not be hidden from Jiang Chen.
The first time they met, Jiang Chen directly activated the [Psychic Shield Generator] to create a 'Psychic Shield' for himself and the Lord of Purple Dream City.
The translucent, film-like shield looks very fragile, but it is enough to withstand the full blow of the ninth level Domain Lord.
But defense is not the purpose. The shield itself is a 'positioning coordinate' and an 'identification signal' for identifying the transmission target.
After getting the coordinates, in the wilderness valley, [Warp Arbiter] immediately activated the ‘Warp Summon’.
The space was torn open with a huge crack. Before Zimeng City Lord had time to react, he was swallowed up by the powerful power of space.
Jiang Chen's clone jumped up and also entered the space crack, actively responding to the call of the [Folding Arbiter].
Such a big movement naturally caused huge waves in Zimeng City.
Upon realizing that the city lord was missing, the guards and servants in the city lord's mansion fell into panic and quickly sought help from other domain lords.
But all this has nothing to do with Jiang Chen.
Wildness, in the valley.
A space crack opened, spitting out two figures and then quickly closed.
One is naturally Jiang Chen's clone, while the other is the Lord of Zimeng City who is more than three meters tall and looks like an ape.
The Lord of Zimeng City actually reacted very quickly. Although he was suddenly attacked by a sneak attack, he was unable to break away from the space power of the 'Jump Summon' immediately.
But as soon as the teleportation ended, his attention immediately turned to the enemy who sneaked up on him.
The moment he saw this valley, City Master Zimeng's heart sank.
“A man from outside the world!”
Zimeng City Lord gritted his teeth and stared at Jiang Chen.
He could tell the identity of the enemy from the mechas and fighter planes surrounding him.
On the planet Viska, there is no such technological thing.
Under the control of the ‘Ancestral God Sect’ and through generations of brainwashing education, the natives of the planet Viska are extremely hostile and hateful towards ‘people from outside the world’.
Although the Lord of Zimeng City has never dealt with ‘people from outside the world’ before, he has only heard a few fragments of legends.
But as soon as Jiang Chen’s identity as the ‘man from outside the world’ was confirmed, the Lord of Zimeng City quickly prepared for battle.
A double-edged battle ax appeared in the hands of Lord Zimeng.
He directly held the battle ax in both hands, and in a flash, he appeared in front of Jiang Chen, holding the battle ax high in both hands and slashing at Jiang Chen.
This blow showed no mercy at all. He went all out to cut Jiang Chen in half.
However, when the ax was halfway down, the face of Lord Zimeng suddenly changed.
A laser as thick as an arm hit the battle axe, and the huge impact directly caused the Lord of Zimeng City to fly sideways.
The next moment, the [Gravity Adjustment Device] started.
The huge gravity pressed on the Zimeng City Lord, making him unable to even stand up and unable to attack at all.
"Why bother, I'm not here to kill you, I just want to get some information."
Jiang Chen's voice sounded leisurely.
The Lord of Purple Dream City's eyes were about to burst, his eyes were bloodshot, and he shouted angrily: "People from outside the world, never think that I will give in! They want me to betray my home planet and dream!"
"Don't worry, I don't need you to surrender. I have my own way to obtain the information in your head."
Jiang Chen's voice sounded normal to the ears of City Lord Zimeng. It seemed ethereal, and by the last few syllables, City Master Zimeng could no longer hear clearly what Jiang Chen was saying.
Hazy, the Lord of Zimeng City felt that his soul seemed to have left his body and entered an extremely dreamy world.
It’s just like the ‘God Realm’ where the ‘ancestral gods’ live in the legend of the planet Viska.
Looking at the Zimeng City Lord who was lost in the illusion, Jiang Chen couldn't help but sigh slightly, and sighed: "The strength of these natives is far inferior to the strong ones in the universe..."
Under Jiang Chen's illusion, the Lord of Zimeng City barely struggled and sank into the illusion.
And in the universe, even those ordinary domain lords who are not geniuses, the will and consciousness of the fifth and sixth level domain lords are not so weak.
At least it would take a battle between mental powers before Jiang Chen could use illusion to invade their consciousness.
An indigenous civilization lacks a systematic inheritance, lacks enough tempering, and remains stagnant on a planet.
Even because of the environment here, they can give birth to many strong men.
But they are not at the same level as the cultivators in the universe at the same level.
Not to mention competing with the geniuses among the five giants.
Even the mechanical legion prepared by Jiang Chen was not used. He just used gravity suppression and an illusion to easily eliminate his opponent.
After using illusions to control the Lord of Zimeng City, Jiang Chen quickly used the secret technique of "Soul Search" to find the information he wanted from the mind of the Lord of Zimeng City.
A Territory Lord can live for tens of thousands of years, and his memory is extremely huge.
It took Jiang Chen several hours to sort out the huge memory of Lord Zimeng and get the information he wanted.
"The Ancestral God Sect is on the other side of the continent. The exact distance is ominous, but it is conservatively estimated to be hundreds of millions of kilometers away. This distance is quite far..."
Jiang Chen shook his head slightly.
Perhaps because his status is not high enough, the Lord of Zimeng City does not have much information.
As for the Ancestral God Sect, he only knew that the headquarters of the Ancestral God Sect was on the other side of the continent, and did not even know its specific location.
There is no information about the Son of God, the Blood God Fruit, the Tomb of the Ancestral God, etc.
The only valuable information is that the ‘Ancestral God Sect’ will send ‘envoys’ from time to time to various cities to look for geniuses.
If you can pass the test of the messenger, you can become a 'candidate Son of God' and be brought back to the Ancestral God Sect for further competition.
The true genius who stands out among a group of candidates for the Son of God can become the official ‘Son of God’ and occupy a very high position within the Ancestral God Sect.
However, the last time an ‘envoy’ came to Purple Dream City was tens of thousands of years ago.
And the Lord of Zimeng City at that time was not the one he is now.
He didn't know much about what happened at that time. He only knew that the envoy did not take anyone away from Purple Dream City in the end, and seemed very dissatisfied.
“According to the memory of Lord Zimeng, there is a large city about five million kilometers to the east, and there are ‘sacred domain strongmen’ in the city, that is, strong men at the level of world lords. Those world lords , we should know more..."
< br>Based on the memory obtained from the mind of the Lord of Zimeng City, Jiang Chen calculated his next plan: "First go to the 'Jielan City' to see if there is a chance to get more detailed information."
