Chapter 151 Sea Soul Beast Attacks the City
Dongyang City is the largest city in the north of the Sun and Moon Empire.
This place is located in the northeast of the entire Sun Moon Continent. Less than a thousand kilometers to the east is the border of the Tianhun Empire, and to the north is the Ice Sea.
Therefore, the city wall here is fully thirty feet high, and various offensive and defensive soul tools are arranged on the top of the city. These are not only to defend against the Heavenly Soul Empire in the East, but also to defend against the Sea Soul Beast in the ice sea.
It was almost noon at this time, and the city gate was the time when the flow of people was the largest. Wang Nan slowly walked towards the city with the crowd, but his eyes were constantly looking at the crowd in front.
Before approaching these people, Wang Nan's spiritual sea Zhongtianye Fushenglong had already become active. There was no doubt that there was an evil soul master among the group of people in front of him.
Although the Sun Moon Empire and the Holy Spirit Cult have a close relationship, they always have to cover it up in front of others. If other people are here, they may not be able to discover the true identity of the group in front of them.
Just as Wang Nan was approaching the city gate, a piercing siren suddenly sounded from the top of the city.
Wang Nan suddenly raised his head, only to see that the crowd around him was already in chaos. Various lights were shining on the city, and soul cannons were gradually adjusting their direction towards the ice sea.
"Close the city gate quickly, the sea soul beast is attacking the city!"
It was only then that a sound came from far away from the top of the city along with a wave of soul power.
Wang Nan mingled with the crowd and rushed towards the city quickly. Soon, the gate of Dongyang City was closed with a loud noise.
Outside the city, the deafening roars of the soul beasts were getting closer and closer together with the tide. Inside the city, groups of soldiers were running towards the top of the city.
"Everyone, go inside the city and don't gather at the city gate!"
"I repeat, don't gather at the city gate!"
Many soldiers have come here, each of them carrying one or several soul tools.
The gap between the Sun and Moon Empire and the other three empires in terms of soul guidance devices is obvious. Even among the soldiers who maintain order here, almost everyone has a soul guidance device. The armor on the leader's body seems to be a soul guidance device.
Although the level of the soul tool was not high, it was already far ahead of the other three empires. After all, even the White Tiger Duke of the Star Luo Empire only wears a seventh-level soul tool.
Wang Nan walked into the city among the crowd.
On both sides of the street, there are many customers in various shops.
The sound of sea water lapping against the city wall continued to be heard outside, and from time to time there would be a sound of soul cannons, causing the ground to shake.
But the people in Dongyang City seemed to have long been used to it. Although they would subconsciously glance outside the city when the soul cannon sounded, they would quickly look away and continue with their actions.
Customers in some stores would even choose products while discussing with those around them how long the attack would last.
"This guest, are you a foreigner?"
A young man came close to Wang Nan, wearing a thick cotton coat and a felt hat.
Because it is close to the Ice Sea, the temperature in Dongyang City is not very high all year round, so most ordinary people dress like this.
Although Wang Nan was not afraid of the cold as a soul master, he did not want to attract too much attention, so he also put on a thick robe.
"How did you know?" Wang Nan didn't hide anything.
"To be honest, I can tell someone like you right away. I don't know why the guest is here. Do you need me to show you around?" Wang Nan smiled. There is no shortage of capable people among ordinary people, especially those who rely on this for a living.
"Are you here to do business, or are you planning to settle here? If you want to settle here, this is not a good place. Not to mention the freezing weather, there are also sea spirit beasts that come to harass us every day."
Seeing that Wang Nan didn't speak, the man took the initiative to start a conversation.
"Do sea soul beasts like this often happen here to attack the city?"
"My guest, you also know that to the north of Dongyang City is the Ice Sea. There is no place near the ocean that is not harassed by spirit beasts."
"It was fine in the past few years, with only one or two spirit beasts appearing occasionally. But in recent years, for some unknown reason, more and more spirit beasts have been attacking the city. In recent days, it has become more frequent, basically every day. It has to happen once.”
Wang Nan looked around while listening to the man's words. The people who had just entered the city with him had dispersed, and the evil soul masters he had noticed earlier had also headed north of the city.
Wang Nan glanced at the man beside him. He is just an ordinary person with no soul power fluctuations in his body.
After thinking about it, he took out two silver soul coins and said, "I was just passing by here. I didn't expect to encounter the sea soul beast attacking the city. I just have nothing to do. Please tell me about Dongyang City."
The man took the Gintama coin and immediately smiled, "I will tell you everything the guest wants to know."
"Then let's talk about what's in Dongyang City first. It's my first time here, so come and listen."
"Okay." The man put away the Gintama coins and rubbed his hands. He wanted to put his hands in his pockets but felt a little rude, so he breathed and put his hands in front of him.
Wang Nan took a look and walked forward slowly.
The man hurriedly followed up, "You just entered through the West City Gate. This side can be said to be the busiest place in Dongyang City. Although it is not as good as the big cities in the interior, it is also the most lively place in the entire northern part of the Sun and Moon Empire. Center, whatever you want to see or buy, this is the best place..."
Wang Nan walked into a restaurant and pushed open the door. There seemed to be some kind of heating soul guide in the hotel, and the surrounding temperature instantly rose.
"Sit down and let's chat while we eat. It's still quite cold outside."
"Hey, thank you, guest." The man smiled and sat down somewhat cautiously.
"What's there in the north of the city?"
"North of the city, that's where soul masters often go." The man said, "There are many soul tools stored there. It's where Dongyang City defends against soul beasts."
"And there is a small port going out from the north gate. Some soul masters will also go to sea through that port to obtain soul rings and so on."
Wang Nan nodded.
In his induction, those evil soul masters went to the north of the city. He originally thought that it would be good to deal with a few evil soul master strongholds before leaving, like in Banyue City.
But now that we know that the soul guidance device is stored there, the guard strength will not be too weak, so there is no need to take risks.
After a while, another roar of a soul cannon came from outside the city, and the entire hotel where Wang Nan was was shaken.
The man sitting opposite Wang Nan sighed, "Oh, it looks like the spirit beast attack will continue for more than half an hour."
