Chapter 877 Hopeless City (145)
The emperor's order is to guard the city gate and never let outside things in.
In this way, the soldiers desperately resisted the stronger and stronger impacts coming from outside the city gate, while the unsuspecting people were already in a mess.
"No matter, this is the imperial capital, and the emperor is here too. There are so many soldiers that nothing will happen here."
The scared people had already hid in the house, and some brave ones stood under the city wall to watch.
The danger was too far away from them, and they couldn't imagine what the invisible monsters looked like, so naturally they didn't have much fear.
But soon these people lost their courage.
Because the seemingly indestructible city gate has now been damaged and is crumbling.
The frame that fixed the door body was shaken off, and the wall fell. Then, at the city gate that had been at the center of the impact, a crack wider than an adult man's arm appeared.
Everyone subconsciously stared at the crack.
The next second, there was a loud "click".
A terrifying claw penetrated directly through the city gate and stretched in. The five claws at the end were long and sharp, like steel knives growing out of the fur. These steel knives easily cut through the city gate made of pure iron. Tear apart, and now, this heartbreaking weapon is facing everyone in the city.
Now the people watching the excitement were completely frightened. After a burst of screams, everyone ran towards the deeper parts of the imperial capital.
It's not safe to hide here. They can even tear apart the city gate, and the houses and yards on both sides are almost like paper to them.
There is a wall deep in the imperial capital. Inside the wall is the place closest to the center of power. A magnificent and luxurious palace is built there. This is where the emperor lives. If there is only one place in the world that is safe, it is within the walls of the imperial capital. Everyone in the outer city rushed towards the inner city in unison. The increasingly terrifying and violent crashes behind them made them rush forward almost without touching the ground. Soon, on the streets that were originally bustling with merchants, became empty.
There were only trampled and broken shop signs on the roadside, not a single soul could be seen, and no human voice could be heard.
Not long after, the people who had taken refuge within the walls of the inner city heard a shocking sound of collapse.
Everyone's face turned pale. They looked at the inner wall in front of them, which was far less tall than the Guanhai City Wall. The children cried louder. Many people wearing brocade clothes were also standing in the crowded crowd. At this time, everyone Everyone is the same, fear is palpable.
"What on earth is that? Mr. Guan, have you seen it?"
The general guarding the gate stood under the inner city wall, the hand holding the knife tightly trembling uncontrollably, and he could not retain the majesty he had just been leisurely and contented with.
His face turned pale, and his eyes were filled with fear.
"The body is like a leopard, with a snow-white tail nearly seven feet long, a mouth full of fangs that bite iron like mud, and claws as sharp as knives"
This passage is familiar to anyone who has read books.
"Isn't this a description of the fictitious evil beast in an art novel? Isn't it said that this evil beast is a random fabrication by General Zhou Ye?"
Everyone looked at each other with a firm tone. Those who had never seen it with their own eyes would definitely not believe it.
Because this is different from the historical facts they have known since childhood.
