The weather was very hot, but the weather was very hot.
Outside the city of Banwang, the city lords of several cities gathered in a simple red brick house. These city lords wore luxurious suits, and gold and silver could not show their noble luxury. Some even had a necklace made of holy magic crystals hanging around their necks.
In this escape, these people were the most free and easy. Even if the monsters invaded their city, they were not panicked.
As long as the army of the kingdom arrived, they would naturally drive away the monsters that invaded the city for them and help them take back the city. They could continue to manage their city as the lord of a city and continue to enjoy the wealth that the city lord should have.
"That young man Seta is really ignorant. He doesn't care about the care he gave to him back then. Now he actually gave the city to a little kid and didn't even let us in! He used a little kid to fool us! He's really arrogant!"
The speaker was a sturdy old man, who was also the most powerful man here. As soon as he spoke, the city lords around him all agreed.
"Lord Arthur, you are absolutely right. As the thirteen cities guarding the north of the kingdom, we should have shared the same hatred and jointly defended the kingdom against the monsters in the northern forest. Nadita dared to leave us alone. Do they really want to betray the kingdom!"
"That's right! Nadita must have bad intentions. Does he really think he is the master of the northern city?"
The old man Arthur, who was in the lead, was very satisfied with what he heard. This showed that everyone here was on his side. Arthur was the most experienced city lord here, and the Lord of the North in their mouths. It was just that there were too many monsters running out of the forest, so he had to leave his city and come here.
"He wants to show us his power. Sir Arthur is the master of the northern city. When will it be the turn of a young man to call the shots? Just because he is a genius? Because he has received the grace of the gods and has become a demigod? Just because of his old lover, the legendary summoner Li Dandan? Or because of the flashing sword dance Jin Lisi? I heard that some time ago, the church's trial knight Gavin defected to Banwang City and established a church in Banwang City with Archbishop Pierre.
Does Nadita want to become the master of the North with these things? It's really a foolish fantasy, don't you think! Sir Arthur!"
Arthur glanced at Lucy who was sitting in the corner of the room. This speech calmed everyone present. Demigods are all high and mighty, but this small Banwang City is full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons. The dozen or so city lords who were originally a little hot-tempered stopped making a fuss because of Lucy's words.
Seeing this scene, Lucy breathed a sigh of relief.
The person who spoke was Lucy, the representative of the Adventurer's Guild in the Northern City. She fled here with Arthur. At the same time, she was also a time traveler. She had seen the power of the monsters and demons in Banwang City in the magic mirror. Only a fool would provoke those people. Several time travelers gathered in that city.
But Lucy was born in the Northern City and received the favor of Lord Arthur. Now she can't provoke either side, so she can only use this method to remind everyone.
If she wasn't a time traveler and knew a lot of the inside story of this world from the magic mirror, I'm afraid she would be skeptical about the legendary figures in Banwang City like these city lords.
The legendary summoner Li Dandan is a person who suddenly appeared. Apart from defeating the Demon King's army Luqi, there is no reliable record. The possibility of rumors is very high, but Lucy believes it.
In addition, there are three demigods wanted by the kingdom, such as Jin Lisi. The three villains have joined Banwang City, which proves that Banwang City has plans to betray the kingdom.
The church's trial knights and a group of demigods also seemed to have joined the city of Banwang. This news was heard from the residents of Banwang. Lucy didn't know the specific situation. She and Arthur had just fled here. Arthur had just gathered these city lords without a leader to discuss how to denounce the city lord of Banwang, Nadita.
Arthur glanced at the silent crowd. These millions of refugees and more than a dozen city lords were so honest. Arthur could understand that these news must not be groundless. At least three escaped demigods were definitely among them, and there was only one demigod present, Arthur.
Demigods are not common goods. It is difficult for a city to have one, especially those cities in the north. The north is different from the south. The south needs to resist the attack of the demon king's army, which is usually synonymous with war and death, while the north is relatively safer, and is usually synonymous with wealth and adventure.
The monsters in the Mesopotamian Forest rarely attack humans. It is good enough for them to live a good life in the forest. At most, some dragon elders sense the treasure and come to extort humans to the city, but they will not cause damage to humans and cities. Therefore, the strength of the North is quite weak. A city with a demigod is already a top existence.
Among these city lords, Arthur is the only demigod. Some of them are not even high-level knights, and they don’t even have a name. Arthur ignores these people directly.
"Then we should discuss the reason why Nadita gathered city residents outside our city, and how we should make a choice."
Arthur chose to flee to Banwang City with the residents. It was also Lucy's suggestion. Originally, he thought that the cities in the North could not resist this wave of monsters. After all, he, the demigod city lord, failed, let alone other cities.
As a result, Lucy knew that Banwang City was still alive. Not only did it resist the monster tide, but it also tamed a group of monsters in the inner city. How fierce it is.
"I think Nadita wants to please us by driving all the residents out of the city and letting us live in!"
"No! Those residents are too cooperative. This behavior will undoubtedly harm the lives of the residents. It is difficult not to have conflicts, which means it is not the case."
"It should be the pre-war preaching. The kingdom army will soon arrive in Banwang City. Nadita must want to push the front line forward, preach outside the city, turn civilians into soldiers to improve morale, and infect our residents and transform them into his own army!"
"If there are really two strong men who surpass demigods in Banwang City, and there are 4 demigods, we have no right to choose at all . When the barrier of Banwang City is raised, Banwang City will be a fortress, supervising the battle in the city, and will not let us and the residents of Banwang City retreat at all! "
"What if there are a few demigods? Can the army of the kingdom be resisted by us marginal cities? It is an army that can fight against the Demon King's army. I heard that the heroes of this generation are also among them. It is a dead end to surrender to Banwang City!"
Lucy is negative about whether these city lords are willing to surrender to Banwang City. The kingdom has given them rights and status. They are nobles of the kingdom. It is the kingdom that has given them the right to manage the city. If they do not protect the kingdom, can they still fight against the kingdom?
Every city lord present did not look like they were fleeing. They were all wearing gold and silver. Compared with the refugees outside, it is not an exaggeration to say that they came to communicate.
"Alright! I can't betray the kingdom! Who of you dares to betray the kingdom? I'll be the first to kill him! If that old man Seta really intends to betray the kingdom with that arrogant kid, I'll lead you to kill him! Attack Banwang City!"
Arthur drew out the high-level magic sword from his waist. His old body did not reduce his sharpness at all. He warned everyone present with murderous intent!
Arthur's prestige in the North was still very high. His words immediately won the support of everyone. With the protection of this demigod Arthur, the other city lords were not afraid of Banwang City. You know, Banwang City used to pay tribute to these cities every year!
Lucy's heart was hanging. She didn't know what Nadita's intention was to summon the entire city's residents to the outside of the city, but it was definitely a big deal.
"Lord Arthur, the people outside the city have assembled. That Nadita is going to speak. Shall we go out and take a look?"
The knight waiting outside the red room knocked on the door and reported. Arthur raised his eyebrows, but stood up quickly, put away his sword, and said, "Then let's go and see what Nadita is going to do!"
Lucy thought this was natural. This red brick house was also built by Nadita. Otherwise, these refugees would not even have a place to live. In someone else's territory, they naturally have to abide by the rules here.
Lucy followed Arthur out of the red brick house and came outside. Now it was dawn. Many refugees got up early, and many refugees still had no place to sleep. It was normal for hundreds of people to squeeze into one room.
Smelling the stench, even though she had been in this world for so many years and had seen so many lives and deaths, Lucy was still not used to the smell of corpses.
Occasionally, there would be refugees who died of starvation on the ground. At that time, the refugees around him would help to transfer and bury him.
But the stench of corpses was still very obvious. These refugees didn't even have the chance to take a shower, unlike Lucy, who could use water magic to make do.
"It's a monster!"
Lucy looked in the direction of the sound, and a large number of storm wolves and wind leopards appeared in the crowd of Banwang City, and seemed to have mixed with the residents of Banwang City.
This was simply unbelievable, monsters could actually stay with humans, these monsters were not magic pets, they didn't wear collars, they were all
There are tamed wild beasts.
Many refugees dare not approach the residents from Banwang City, including those beasts that kill without blinking an eye.
These beasts include not only storm wolves and wind leopards, but also extremely rare violent black bears and even frost trolls.
Lucy used the identification to scan them. Without looking at the level, dense names were displayed in front of Lucy.
This is what shocked Lucy the most. Most of the beasts have been blessed and given names. This is the most terrifying thing.
And there are about two or three thousand beasts that have reached the strength of the emperor level. Lucy doesn't know the actual number. She just took a look and didn't dare to look.
If there are demigods mixed in, she will feel bad. Lucy suffered a loss when identifying Arthur before. The powerful demigods can detect the peeping of the identification.
Although Arthur didn't learn the identification, he subconsciously put his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist when he saw the group of beasts. He looked a lot more nervous.
"What a terrifying number of monsters, at least two thousand of them are at the emperor level. Are these monsters the pets of legendary summoners?"
Arthur whispered to Lucy, and the momentum was obviously not as strong as in the red brick house.
Even if he was a demigod, facing so many emperor-level monsters, he might not be able to escape even if he wanted to.
Lucy shook her head to indicate that she didn't know, but she could only wait and see.
A strong momentum was released from above the wall of Banwang City. It was obviously the powerful pressure of the demigod. This pressure made the hearts of millions of refugees below tremble, and the scene instantly quieted down.
The person who released this pressure was Pierre. As one of the former archbishops of the church, he was very good at controlling the big scene.
"Lady Elizabeth, do you think my daughter is really okay?"
Pierre looked at Elizabeth behind him, and Elizabeth nodded.
"We were divided into three teams. Our main force attracted most of the attention. The believers with insufficient strength took other roads. This was also to avoid maximizing losses. I believe that your daughter will be able to return to you soon."
Xiong Er, who was standing next to him, wanted to complain. Why didn't she go with the second team? She had to follow Elizabeth to attract firepower. It was really painful!
"Then I'll leave it to you. I will assist you."
Pierre found Elizabeth as soon as Elizabeth woke up and asked about her daughter's condition. Hearing that Elizabeth's team was almost wiped out, Pierre was desperate. Now that he heard that Elizabeth was well prepared, he felt much more at ease.
"Pray for the blessing of the Mother Goddess Sophia!"
Pierre chanted a divine light magic, and a golden light shone on the refugees below. This was a large-scale healing magic. Although the effect was not strong, it had a wide coverage effect. It could warm the body and some minor colds could be cured instantly.
This magic was undoubtedly a timely help for the refugees on the ground.
"This is the divine light! I recognize that person, that is the demigod Archbishop Pierre! He is a follower sent by the goddess! He is here to save us! Drive away the monsters! Drive away the monsters!"
Many refugees in the square recognized Pierre. Pierre has a long history as a bishop and often preaches in various cities, so he will naturally be recognized.
Pierre's divine light magic is also a good opening remark.
"I am the mayor of Banwang City, Nadita."
The next person to climb the city wall was the green-haired mayor of Banwang City, Nadita. At this time, Nadita did not look like a normal human, but it was obvious at a glance that she was a demon, and an extremely powerful demon.
Huge green dragon wings appeared behind Nadita, and her strong muscles were displayed without reservation. The pressure of the demigod far exceeded Pierre, like a real dragon, which made the refugees present feel inexplicably fearful.
Arthur was sweating profusely. This was the first time he had seen Nadita's current appearance. He had seen this young man in Setana before, but now he had completely turned into a terrifying demon.
In fact, Arthur couldn't tell whether Nadita was a demon or not. If he was an Argonian, he wouldn't be considered a real demon, but he had a huge fox tail behind him and the characteristics of a demon beast, which made Arthur completely unable to guess.
