Li Taihang, Lin Yue and Li Jiang returned to the city in disguise.
At this time, the city had already been under martial law, leaving only one city gate for traffic. Even when passing through, they would be stared at by soldiers.
They seemed to be looking at other people's faces to see if they were zombies.
After all, the city was in a panic because of the zombie incident in the Xingheng Branch Temple.
And Li Taihang and the other two were not noticed by the soldiers because of their disguise.
Surprisingly, among these soldiers guarding the city gate, there were even Knights of the Temple.
They also assisted in watching the people coming in and out, but did not intercept them like the soldiers.
In addition to pedestrians, there were more patrolling soldiers on the streets, and occasionally Knights of the Temple passed by or stared in the dark.
"I didn't expect the changes in the city to be so big? There are people staring everywhere." Lin Yue whispered.
"Yes, it's a good thing that I became the zombie king, otherwise I couldn't avoid the secret observation of these Knights of the Temple." Li Jiang felt lucky.
If he changed into the flying zombie state, he might be caught at the city gate.
The three of them whispered along the way and slowly came to the vicinity of Xingheng Branch Temple.
But they did not go forward, but found an inn nearby and stayed in it.
Then, they observed the situation of Xingheng Branch Temple from upstairs.
But they saw that the surrounding area was under full martial law, not only the city lord's soldiers, but also the soldiers and knights of the Temple.
They formed three lines of defense.
The first line of defense was the soldiers sent by the city lord. They guarded the outermost perimeter to prevent anyone from approaching the Xingheng Branch Temple within a few hundred meters.
The second line of defense was the soldiers of the Temple, which was established in the central position to prevent anyone from accidentally breaking in or deliberately breaking in. It was only a hundred meters away from the Xingheng Branch Temple.
The third line of defense was guarded by the Knights Templar themselves.
They guarded the periphery of Xingheng Branch Temple, staring at the surroundings vigilantly, and prohibited anyone from approaching.
Looking into the Xingheng Branch Temple again, the entire Xingheng Branch Temple had become a ruin.
There were people cleaning up the ruins inside, and those people were the Knights Templar.
At this time, the leader of the Knights Templar asked the knights who were cleaning up the ruins, "How is the cleaning going?"
"It will take half a day, my Lord." The knight replied.
"Well, speed up, the Lord will be here soon." The leader urged.
"Yes."
The knights hurried to clean up the ruins, and the burned debris was also taken away in piles.
But because they didn't know the specific location and the entrance, they didn't clean up too violently, but cleaned up the garbage carefully.
The leader went to patrol the periphery again, and sent people to watch the periphery, not allowing anyone to get close to here.
You know, the secrets of the temple are hidden here, and they must not be exposed.
"It seems that the defense is quite tight." Li Taihang told them after observation.
"Sir, what should we do next?" Li Jiang asked.
"No hurry, you guys just observe here first." Li Taihang thought for a while and said, "I'll go out and see the situation."
"Yes, sir!" Li Jiang replied.
"Okay." Lin Yue replied.
In the City Lord's Mansion.
Li Taihang quietly lurked in the City Lord's Mansion to see what the situation was like here.
In the City Lord's Mansion.
The City Lord and the general were discussing in secret, because the Temple had sent people to take over the affairs of the Xingheng Branch Temple, and they also had to discuss some countermeasures.
However, fortunately, the Temple did not come to them immediately to settle accounts.
On the contrary, they asked them to help build a defense line, and then let them guard it well.
"City Lord, what do you think they are doing?" The general couldn't help asking.
The City Lord took a sip of tea and shook his head, "I don't know, but from the looks of them, they seem to be looking for something."
"Looking for something?"
"It should be something very valuable." The City Lord put down the teacup and said.
"Really? Is there any secret hidden in this Xingheng Branch Hall?" the general asked.
The city lord stroked his beard, "It should be, because the strange thing is here, what is hidden in it? It even alarmed a purple-robed cardinal of the Holy Temple?"
"That's right." The general nodded, and suddenly his heart moved, and asked: "City Lord, should we?"
"Don't!"
The city lord naturally understood what he meant, and quickly dispelled his terrible idea.
"We must not care about it, we just need to maintain order and fully cooperate with them."
The city lord was timid and seemed to be frightened.
"Yes!" The general said helplessly.
Although the Xingheng Branch Hall was on their territory, according to the agreement, he had no right to interfere in the affairs of the Holy Temple Branch Hall, and could send people out to maintain order.The order is already very good.
Moreover, they also lost dozens of soldiers because of this. This matter is not only of no benefit to them, but also a big loss for them.
"What about the accountability of the Temple?"
"It's okay, we have an agreement."
The city lord had already thought of this way to deal with this matter, and the dozens of soldiers who died could also be used to make a fuss and accuse Xingheng Branch Temple of inaction.
Of course, how to do it specifically depends on the city lord himself and the attitude of the Temple.
After Li Taihang figured out the attitude of the City Lord's Mansion, he left quickly.
"It seems that the main enemy this time is still the Temple, and the City Lord's Mansion does not want to interfere in this matter."
Then, Li Taihang left the City Lord's Mansion again and quietly came to the outside of Xingheng Branch Temple.
At this time, Li Taihang was alone. After finding out the situation of Xingheng Branch Temple, he knew that they were indeed looking for something, and according to Li Taihang's spiritual sense, it was the demon corpse.
Although it was unknown where they got the real demon corpse from, the demon corpse was very powerful. In terms of realm, it could reach the level of a sword god, and even surpassed the sword god because of its physique.
"We must get this corpse and refine it into our own puppet, and then use it to deal with the people of the temple. It would be perfect." Li Taihang thought to himself.
Then, he quickly returned to the inn.
After returning to the inn, Li Taihang asked: "Did you encounter any situation?"
Lin Yue nodded, "Just now, soldiers came to investigate us, but they didn't find anything."
"That's good."
Li Taihang also told the two about the situation outside.
"Brother Li, what should we do next?" Lin Yue asked curiously.
Li Jiang also looked at him curiously.
Li Taihang whispered, "I plan to seize the demon corpse in their underground!"
"Ah?"
"But what is its use?"
"There are two purposes for seizing it. One is to weaken the power of the temple, and the other is to refine it into a puppet and make it our super fighter." Li Taihang said his idea, and the two were very surprised after listening.
They felt that the first reason was excusable.
But the second reason, can they really do it?
However, Lin Yue saw Li Taihang said so, that there must be no problem.
"That's fine!" Lin Yue nodded.
"But the defense there is tight, how should we get in?" Lin Yue asked.
"Have you forgotten the hidden gem?" Li Taihang said.
"Oh, yes." Lin Yue suddenly realized and said happily: "With this hidden gem in hand, it will be difficult for them to find us."
"Yeah."
"Then sir, when are we going to set off?" Li Jiang also seemed a little impatient.
Li Taihang thought for a moment and said, "We'll set off after they dig through the underground passage."
"Okay."
So they decided to wait in the inn. After two hours, as the ruins were thoroughly cleared, the hidden underground passage was also dug through.
"Captain, we found it."
This surprised Bamon, the leader of the Knights, very much. "Really? That's great."
Bamon hurried to the entrance, took a look at the dark entrance, nodded, and thought to himself, "It seems to be here. I can feel the evil breath coming from it."
Immediately, Bamon turned around and said, "Okay, it's finally dug through. You guard this place well and never let outsiders in. Do you understand?"
Bamon immediately gave orders and gave instructions.
"Yes!"
Bamon immediately called in heavy troops and guarded the entrance heavily.
"They have succeeded." Li Taihang used his spiritual sense to perceive the situation over there and told Lin Yue and Li Jiang.
"Then shall we go there now?" Lin Yue was a little worried.
If they go too late, will they lose this good opportunity?
"But how can we get through those defense lines?" Lin Yue asked puzzledly.
"Have you forgotten our hidden gems?" Li Taihang said speechlessly.
"Oh, right." Lin Yue came back to his senses and laughed awkwardly.
"Okay, let's go." Li Taihang said.
"Okay."
Lin Yue nodded, used the hidden gems, covered the three of them, and disappeared on the spot.
The three of them passed through the defensive lines of the soldiers, came to the ruins of Xingheng Temple, and then walked towards the entrance.
"Watch out, don't let a fly run in, otherwise you will die." A knight captain said to the knight guarding the gate.
"Yes."
There are quite a fewThe knights were guarding, and at the same time, in order to prevent someone from sneaking in, they used detection magic from time to time to check the surroundings to prevent someone from sneaking in.
But this had no effect on the hidden gem.
"Let's go, don't worry." Li Taihang saw that Lin Yue and Li Jiang had stopped, understood their concerns, and reminded them.
"Okay."
At the same time, under Li Taihang's amplification, the effect of the hidden gem was increased by a hundred times.
And the detection magic could not detect anything at all.
Moreover, they could also avoid the detection magic.
Soon, they came to the heavily guarded entrance, and there were already knights all around them.
However, they seemed not to see the three people, and just like that, the three people passed them and entered the underground passage.
