Chapter 3062 Crisis in the Imperial City
Outside the majestic Imperial City, heavy troops have gathered at this moment, a sight that has not been seen in the past hundred years.
After receiving the royal military order, the nearby legions rushed straight to the imperial city without stopping.
After arriving, I received an order to set up camp ten miles away from the imperial city.
Then the soldiers were released, three steps to one post, five steps to one post, and no one was allowed to pass.
Both the general and the soldiers did not understand this bizarre order.
It should be noted that the imperial city is very large, and the station is ten miles away. God knows how many manpower is needed to defend the huge imperial city?
It was just a mountain of military orders, and no one dared to resist. When they arrived at the predetermined location, the generals immediately launched defenses as required.
A legion of more than 10,000 people can protect a length of more than ten kilometers.
As the major legions arrived one after another, the entire imperial city was actually surrounded by soldiers.
The world was amazed at this abnormal arrangement and speculated that something big was bound to happen.
At the same time, a large number of demon hunters gathered in the imperial city and cooperated with the imperial army in the city.
The headquarters of the demon hunter is located in the imperial city and is under the direct control of the royal family.
Now that something unexpected happened, all the elite demon hunters were called back to participate in the task of protecting the imperial city.
The monster hunting families from other places also received orders and must rush to the imperial city at all costs.
This series of changes can be said to have shocked the world.
Everyone speculated that it must be something extraordinary to induce the imperial city to issue such an order.
The world was shocked, and all eyes were focused on the imperial city, wanting to know what happened.
It didn’t take long for the news to spread, spreading privately, and soon everyone knew about it.
There was a monk of unknown origin who rode a tiger demon and caused countless killings.
In a short period of time, a large number of demon hunters were killed, and countless ordinary warriors and civilians were killed.
Although the demon hunters and the military cooperated with each other and set up many checkpoints to intercept, they still failed to kill the opponent.
It is rumored that the other party has disappeared, but there is a high possibility that he is secretly heading straight to the imperial city.
It is this reason that has led to the current situation.
When hearing this rumor, most people will be shocked and have incredible expressions on their faces.
No one can believe that such a huge battle could be caused by one person!
Who is the other party and how powerful is it to be able to do this?
Although my heart is full of doubts, the royal family who controls the world will never joke about this kind of thing.
The wisest thing to do is to be vigilant and respond to changes that may occur at any time.
But overnight, rumors also spread in the imperial city, making people panic.
The people in this world are all aware of the existence of demons and have deep fear in their hearts.
The royal and demon hunter headquarters immediately issued a notice, claiming that the rumors were all fabricated.
If anyone dares to spread rumors again, he will be severely punished and will never be tolerated.
With the display of the notice, the rumors in the city stopped abruptly, but the people in the city became increasingly uneasy.
Everyone knows that this is just a means to appease people, and the purpose of appeasing is probably to cover up.
In fear and uneasiness, time passed slowly.
Another four or five days passed, and everything was calm and nothing happened at all.
Some of the worried people in the imperial city have gradually relaxed, thinking that things are really as the royal family said and may not be as terrible as they imagined.
There are also some people who are even more nervous.
Only because they discovered that the number of patrol soldiers on the streets increased, and the figure of the monster hunter flashed from time to time.
As time goes by, the imperial city's defense is constantly strengthening. If it was a network before, it is now an airtight iron plate.
These situations can only show that the situation is still serious and has even become more dangerous.
For some reason, the people who were better informed brought back even more disturbing news.
Nowadays, the number of soldiers stationed outside the city has increased, and they look like they are going to fight.
Amid panic, two more days passed.
The soldiers guarding a place ten miles outside the city suddenly saw a group of strange birds suddenly appear in the distant sky.
These strange birds have human heads and claws like human hands. They look like half-length women with a pair of ragged wings. "Monster!"
Seeing the strange bird in the sky, the soldiers screamed in panic and pointed to the sky hurriedly.
“Don’t panic, stop making noise, prepare to fight!”
When the patrolling officer saw this, he shouted loudly and looked at the sky worriedly.
On normal days, monsters would hide in the mountains and would never dare to appear in front of the world.
Now that it appears abnormally during the day, it can only mean one thing. The most worrying situation has happened.
“You evil beast, die!”
Just when the officer looked at the sky, a sharp shout suddenly came from his ears, and at the same time, several figures appeared quickly.
You can tell by looking at the other party's dress that they are a group of demon hunters, and they come from a powerful ancient family.
Their mission is to assist the soldiers in defense.
“This is a human-headed bird. It likes to snatch babies and is accustomed to sneak attacks on poultry and livestock.
It usually hides at night and rarely appears during the day to avoid being killed by the monster hunter. Kill.
Now you dare to appear in groups, you are really arrogant, watch me kill these evil beasts immediately!”
A young demon hunter shouted coldly, and at the same time, he patted the back, and the huge wooden box opened in response.
Then everyone saw a strange-looking metal weapon ejected from the box.
There are 12 metal tubes on it, with bow springs scattered all over it, obviously in a state of being ready to be fired.
The demon hunter stretched out his hand and grabbed it backwards. He took the multi-barreled machine gun-shaped weapon in his hand and pointed it at the strange human-headed bird flying in the sky.
“Die to me!”
The demon hunter pulled the trigger, aimed at the strange human-headed bird in the sky, and streaks of silver light shot out.
Seeing this scene, the surrounding officers and soldiers were full of surprise, sighing at the power of this strange weapon.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a shocking scene happened.
The strange human-headed bird in the air did not dodge and directly caught the arrows shot at it.
The rugged hands violently broke it apart, and it actually broke into two pieces.
The strange human-headed bird made a quacking sound in its mouth, which seemed to be deliberately mocking.
“Damn, how could this happen?”
Compared with the surprised soldiers, several young demon hunters felt panic in their hearts.
The weapon used just now is their family's secret weapon, and its power is far more powerful than ordinary muskets.
The arrows are engraved with runes, which can cause heavy damage to monsters and are an absolute weapon for eliminating monsters.
After it was successfully developed, it was kept secret and used as a secret weapon.
This time the demon hunter headquarters issued a recruitment order, summoning demon hunters from all over the world to rush to the imperial city, and the family elders unanimously decided to equip all of them with this secret weapon.
The real purpose, in addition to self-protection, is to take this opportunity to become famous all over the world.
A group of young demon hunters are equally ambitious and want to make a name for themselves.
The calmness of the past few days has made these young demon hunters extremely anxious, fearing that they would not be able to find a chance to show themselves.
Young people are competitive, how can they stay calm when faced with such a big event where demon hunters gather from all over the world?
Even in their hearts, they wish that things would make a bigger fuss, lest the world would not be in chaos.
But the situation at this moment made the demon hunters panic, and they realized that things were not as simple as they imagined.
When can a monster like a human-headed bird catch a rune arrow without suffering any damage?
"No wonder the Imperial City is so nervous. The monsters this time are indeed a little different."
As soon as this idea got angry, a strange human-headed bird in the sky screamed wildly and flew directly over everyone's heads.
Looking at their moving target, it was obvious that they were heading straight for the Imperial City, completely unafraid of the bullets and arrows fired from below.
At the same time, smoke and dust billowed in the distance, and bursts of fishy wind blew against our faces.
Countless strange monsters are gathering together at this moment, heading straight towards the direction of the imperial city.
