I have an eye of truth

Soon, everyone decided to go back and participate in the battle against the Others. There was no other choice.

Once their reputation was ruined, it would be difficult to develop in the future. To get what they needed at higher levels, they had to exchange various merits.

Even major forces and sects had many things they could exchange.

Also, reputation was very important for joining them. No major force would want someone with a bad character.

"Alright, I'll contact them. Let's start negotiating terms now, and we can also test the waters," said Zi Qing.

After speaking, Zi Qing led everyone to the town's communication center. At this time, due to the large-scale outbreak of insects, the town had completely entered a state of martial law. Many people had already left the town and were running towards the big cities.

After all, the town's defense was not strong enough, and it was not safe. Large cities were rarely directly taken down.

This led to the town's defensive power being even worse. After Wang Yang and the others directly stated their identities, they were immediately received by the town's higher-ups, who took them to the communication center.

There was no other way; they also knew that this insect plague was a bit troublesome. If Wang Yang and the others could solve the problem on the Fallen City's side, their side would also be safe through city radiation.

"Please come in, please come in. This is the communication center. We have already made contact with Fallen City."

"Yes, fortunately, these insects are relatively stupid and didn't cut off our communication in time."

Everyone exchanged glances, a meaningful look flashing in their eyes. Then, Zi Qing began to contact the other side. The person appearing on the screen was indeed the acting city lord they knew.

They hadn't even met him once before and had even joined others to exclude them.

Now that's good, if they don't show up, they can wait for bad luck. Internal strife in the city, especially at this critical time, what else can the high-level officials of Fallen City do but compromise if they don't want to die.

"First of all, I would like to express my apologies to you. We didn't know about the previous events, and we have already dealt with those who committed the crimes."

Those who committed the crimes? Aren't you the ones? Wang Yang rolled his eyes. Of course, he knew that this was a high-level act of scapegoating, but it was also considered an explanation for them, although it was a bit unpleasant.

"In addition, we will also deal with those former city officials who were arrested. The former city lord committed a major crime, and we will hold a public trial after this incident."

Is this considered an explanation? It should have been done a long time ago, but you guys just deliberately did it this way.

Although the matter was so big that many officials were dismissed, wasn't the trial still up to them? After all, they had to save face for them; many of these people were from various major families.

If these people were dealt with, then they would be very passive.

This time, it was also considered a compromise by the major families. Although it should have been the case in name a long time ago, the reality must be different.

"Let's not talk about those things; those were things you should have done in the first place. Let's talk about what price you are going to pay this time. If you want us to help, it's impossible not to negotiate terms. Last time, because we didn't negotiate terms, you guys cheated, and we couldn't do anything about it, but this time it's different." A charming smile appeared on Zi Qing's face.

On the other side, the acting city lord of Fallen City had cold sweat flowing down his forehead. These people really started to make demands.

"Please make any demands you want. We can agree to anything we can satisfy."

There was no other way; if they agreed, the city might survive. Although they would lose a lot, at least the city could survive, they themselves would not die, and they would still maintain their rights.

But if they didn't agree, then the city would basically be impossible to exist.

The comparison of strength between the enemy and us was already very disparate. If internal strife was added, then it would really be over.

"Very good, then I won't be polite. First of all, we need to make up for the benefits from last time. This time, you can't hide anything. In addition, we also need these things." Zi Qing passed over a list.

The acting city lord only glanced at it a few times and finally nodded helplessly: "I agree to everything. Are there any other conditions?"

"Of course, there are. Later, we will try to launch an attack on those insects and eliminate them as much as possible. We need your cooperation. Once you receive our message, immediately send people out of the city to attack."

The acting city lord thought for a while and then said: "I need to discuss it with others."

Such a big matter, let alone himself as the acting city lord, even the real city lord could not decide. Even in the city, it was not the city lord's sole decision.

"Promise them, we completely agree to this condition. And without our cooperation, it is impossible for them to enter the city."

These guys are a bit overconfident, but that's normal. Although the Sky Battle Team is strong, their strength has not been seen by the high-level officials of Fallen City. This kind of strength is not irreplaceable. Last time, it was just their good luck.

As for being able to block that level of attack, they might have used some special defensive item. After all, Wang Yang didn't have any injuries at all. At least, that's how they looked.

But even so, they also believed that the overall strength of the city was much stronger than them. Now, letting Wang Yang and the others go back is only to appease the people, appease the adventurers, and prevent internal strife in the city, that's all. In terms of combat power, they really didn't look up to a mere team.

"Alright, we agree. Are there any other conditions?" The acting city lord was already gnashing his teeth.

"No more, we'll set off now."

The communication was cut off, and Zi Qing turned her head to the others and said: "Sure enough, just like we thought, the insects didn't cut off the communication at all. It seems that one of their goals is us."

The reason why they contacted Fallen City was also a kind of test, a test of the city, and also a test of the insects.

"In that case, the Others are likely to already know about our communication this time."

Zi Qing shook her head: "It's not very likely, but definitely know. Although I don't know what method they used. If they can't monitor the information sent by Fallen City, they will definitely not let go of Fallen City's communication network so easily."

"Since that's the case, then let's not waste any more time."

According to what they had discussed before, this time's plan was to attack east and west. The purpose was not to directly charge towards Fallen City, but to attract the attention of the insects, so that they could do other things.

Unfolding the map, there were already many circles marked on it, all of which were their next destinations.
