MTL - I Became An Acre Of Haunted Land-v2 Chapter 263 Repeated defeats
This is a city full of life.
At least, Xiang Ye thought so.
Although the towering city wall is not as rough and thick as the modern cement concrete construction in Qilin District, it is extremely delicate.
There are murals of various classical miracles carved on the city walls, and the portraits of the characters drawn on the murals are definitely the Moon Shadow Goddess without guessing at Xiang Ye.
It seems that they are not worried about the potential safety of the outside world. There are only a few people walking and patrolling on the city wall, and two soldiers are listlessly guarding the gate of the city below.
"It seems that this Klondor continent is not as bad as we imagined."
Looking carefully at this city, which is only a little smaller than Qilin District, Xiang Ye thought silently.
On the edges of the windows in the towering towers, candlelight flickered, and the light from some windows was even comparable to the fluorescent lamps in the Qilin District.
Figures passed by from time to time, and some people stood on the windowsill, looking down at the crowd gathered under the tower.
Following the gaze of the figure on the window sill, there is an extremely open square below. The bonfire is burning very vigorously, and the flames are several meters high. A circle of people in black robes are surrounding the bonfire, praying loudly. What are you thinking about.
Obviously, the city is holding a sacrifice.
After a glance at Xiang Ye, he lost interest. Not surprisingly, these people are the priests of the Moon Shadow Temple, dancing weird dances, and screaming weird voices, which are completely different from the customs of Yunlan Kingdom.
After taking a rough look at the city, Xiang Ye jumped down from the hill, and the next step was to enter the city.
It's just that, swaggering in, looking for the Moon Shadow Altar in such a big city is completely smeared, and Xiang Ye's perception has no effect before the main body is swallowed here.
As for this city, although it is not big, it will take an unpredictable time to find it slowly. Xiang Ye doesn't want to waste too long time here.
"Let's go to the city first and talk."
After thinking about it, Xiang Ye still walked towards the gate of the city. Several carriages had already come out of the night. The wheels rolled over the gravel road, and the sound was heard far away.
He planned to try to see if he could sneak into the city with these carriages.
…
"Goddess of Moon Shadow above. Priest Kodolan, haven't those weird outsiders been eliminated?"
In the quiet carriage, a well-dressed middle-aged man with sharp eyes looked at Priest Ke Duolan, who was frowning beside him, and said.
Not long ago, after the doomsday behemoth woke up, it once again engulfed a city. The Moon Shadow Goddess discovered the city by relying on her divine power, and issued an oracle, sending priests of Kodolan to lead her men to conquer it.
However, the enemies encountered this time were extremely tenacious.
They use a strange weapon that can attack them from a great distance away from the army.
Originally, they directly sent a small group of troops to test their situation, but after being frustrated, they changed their battle plan.
The priests in Moon Shadow God's country came out in full force, using the beast summoner's affinity with wild beasts in the forest, they organized a large-scale beast horde to encircle them, and at the same time sent Moon Shadow Assassins to touch that weird city, to attack those stationed there. soldiers were assassinated.
But even so, they found it still difficult to deal with the people in that city.
The tide-like beasts are easily hit by their long-range weapons like targets, and then they fall to the ground. If they send out even larger Moon Shadow Beasts, the Moon Shadow Beasts are tall and tall, and they are 5 meters tall. He is as tall as 20 meters in length, covered in scales, and has a strong defense.
When a general weapon is cut on it, it has no other effect except to shoot sparks.
It's a pity that although the Moon Shadow Demonic Beast can resist that kind of flaming weapon, the people inside will soon release a more powerful weapon.
It's fine if that weapon isn't released, but it's a disaster when it's released.
Countless meteorites were ejected from that city, and every time a meteorite fell, all the beasts with a radius of tens of meters were killed, while the beasts that were farther away would be hit by the shock wave from the meteorite, and the seven orifices would bleed to death. .
And as the most powerful siege behemoth Moon Shadow Warcraft, let alone.
The outsiders who resisted in the city themselves have discovered the threat of the Moon Shadow Demonic Beast, so it goes without saying that they are targeting it.
After this battle, they suffered huge losses. If the Moon Shadow Assassin hadn't used the darkness as a cover to climb up the city wall and kill many city wall guards, they would have made no achievements.
"No."
In the carriage, Priest Ke Duolan's face was extremely ugly. He launched 6 large-scale attacks, but all 6 attacks were blocked by those outsiders, except for the first time they entered the city. , After that, no matter which time they all fell under that towering city wall.
In the first contact, the city had no walls, so they easily attacked. But the second time he gathered a large number of beasts and rushed over to deal with those outsiders at once, a rough city wall blocked them.
Priest Ke Duolan couldn't figure out how those outsiders could build such a city wall in such a short period of time in just half a month.
The city wall is more than ten meters high, and it is poured with a kind of stone that does not belong to their world at all. No matter how many huge beasts there are, they cannot cross such a high sky moat and directly enter the city. The moon shadow monsters used to attack the city...
It’s okay not to use it, as soon as the meteorites were used, they fell down overwhelmingly.
Those outsiders seem to be extremely comfortable with this explosive fireball technique, and their aim is amazing. There is nothing they can't miss in a large-scale projection.
But fortunately, those burst fireballs seemed to be the last means of life-saving for the group of outsiders, and they would never use them lightly until a critical moment.
Generally used is an extremely weird weapon.
Priest Ke Rando thought for a while, and pulled out an extremely luxurious treasure box under the seat of the carriage, and then he opened the treasure box cautiously, revealing the contents inside.
A member-of-the-military semi-automatic rifle.
"This is?"
The people on the side asked strangely when they saw what Priest Ke Duolan took out.
He is not a frontline combatant, so naturally he doesn't know what it is, but looking at Priest Ke Duolan's expression, it seems that this thing is extremely important.
"The weapons used by the outsiders were snatched from those people by the Moon Shadow Assassins at a great price."
"But it's a pity that the divine power inside has disappeared, and it's useless for the time being."
Priest Ke Duolan raised the weapon and said cautiously.
Although the city was not captured in the 6 attacks, they were not without gains.
Priest Ke Duolan saw with his own eyes how the guards on the city wall relied on this strange weapon to harvest the beast hordes they gathered.
It can be said that the group of people used this weapon to repel them easily.
After losing 6 battles in a row, if he can't come up with something useful, he doesn't have to be a high priest, he can just be demoted to a commoner.
…
Xiang Ye had already approached the carriage without anyone noticing. At this moment, he happened to be lying on the front of the carriage that Priest Ke Duolan was riding in, watching the dark sky while listening to the conversation between the two.
He felt that he was lucky this time, and he found the right owner as soon as he arrived, and according to the communication of the people in the carriage, they seemed to be the culprits who attacked the Qilin District.
Xiang Ye originally planned to send the two of them back to the west with a slap, but Xiaocheng held him back again.
And the reason is very simple, Xiang Ye can not be afraid of everyone and gods on this continent, but the citizens of Qilin District can't, they need to understand the situation here, they need to inquire about the purpose of these people, and even need to get information about these people, etc. Wait.
Only by understanding their situation can Qilin District take targeted measures.
Xiang Ye thought about it, and it was true.
"What are you going to do?"
The voice of a middle-aged man came from the carriage again. He was already extremely unfavorable to Priest Kodolan. With the failure of 6 attacks, it can be said that the future of Priest Kodolan is already dark, even if he is under the command of the Moon Goddess. The High Priest, but with such a huge loss, Moon Shadow Goddess can no longer protect him.
Maybe it's time to look for a new High Priest candidate.
The middle-aged man thought silently.
He is the presiding judge of the Moon Goddess's guards and has been stationed in this city. He has heard about the war outside. From the analysis of the battle situation, the mistakes made by the high priest of Ke Duolan can no longer allow him to be in the high priest's office. Sit down in the seat, and this time, in addition to reporting the situation to the Shadow Goddess, the next step is his trial of the high priest's crimes.
Losing is losing, there is no reason at all.
The more powerful the power, the less forgiveness it has for wrongdoers.
The current Moon Shadow Temple is no longer what it used to be. It is chased and beaten by the forces of the Goddess of the Sun, and the staff is sparse. It can only let the people under the command continue to go, and make mistakes and correct them in time.
But now, the Moon Hidden Temple is the most powerful overlord in this area, and they will never let such a person who made a big mistake continue to serve as the high priest.
"Presiding Judge Lawrence, you are not thinking about my trial after meeting the goddess, are you?"
Hearing presiding judge Lawrence's extremely perfunctory question, High Priest Kodolan raised his head with a smile and asked inexplicably.
"That's my job."
Presiding Judge Lawrence raised his eyebrows, staring closely at High Priest Kodolan.
This guy in front of him seems to think that he can keep the position of high priest?
Losing 6 wars in a row, repeated defeats, material transportation, logistics support, personnel transfer, etc., how much loss this has caused them, doesn't the high priest not understand?
The only harvest was the weird weapon. Judge Lawrence knew what High Priest Kodolan meant, but he didn't think that this weapon could save High Priest Kodolan from this punishment.
