Facts have proved that the worries of the nobles in Orant City are completely unreasonable.

After seeing the signal for help from the Golden City, the Ten-Town Alliance mobilized an elite army of 1,500 people almost as quickly as possible, and marched towards the Golden City overnight despite the heavy rain. It was obvious.

, they obviously did not do this simply to prove the brotherhood between compatriots. Because with the army, in addition to the commander of the Mad Lion Legion, Master Meister, there was also a noble companion.

"I really didn't expect that we could actually receive a signal for help from the Golden City. I thought they would rather die than ask for help from us."

The man who was wrapped in a robe raised his head and looked at the green beam of light on the horizon with a mocking smile. When he heard what he said, the man riding beside him shook his head with a wry smile.

. He wears a golden armor. The most eye-catching thing is that there is a relief of a roaring lion on the chest of the golden armor, and the armor on both sides of the shoulders are outstretched claws. Matching him

The resolute and mighty square face gives people a tough as stone temperament. Anyone who knows a little bit about the Ten Towns knows that this golden armor is one of the three most powerful legions of the Ten Towns Alliance.

——The symbol of the Mad Lion Legion. The man riding a horse in front is none other than the commander of the Mad Lion Legion, General Kafka. He is considered one of the most famous warriors in the North, and he is also a legend.

Swordsman of the realm.

After hearing what the other party said, Kafka shrugged his shoulders. Of course he knew why the other party said that. The Ten-Town Alliance and the City of Gold have had a long-standing dispute. Both parties can be regarded as the most influential existences in this western wilderness.

The merchant alliance has always hoped to completely capture the Golden City and monopolize the ore and silver produced here. However, the Golden City is not a vegetarian. In addition, since they control one-third of the raw materials circulating in the western region, they have to deal with price issues.

Above. The Ten-Town Alliance and the Golden City also have considerable conflicts and frictions. The two sides have also had a lot of frictions and conflicts privately. Countless conspiracies and assassinations have revolved around the Golden City again and again. It is also true that

Because of this, the relationship between the two parties is very dangerous, but they still maintain a normal relationship on the surface.

After all, once the two sides break up, the Golden City will not supply the raw materials needed by the Ten Towns, and the Ten Towns will also block the flow of materials to the Golden City. This kind of thing will not only kill the enemy by one thousand, but also suffer eight hundred losses for both sides.

There is no benefit. Both parties are businessmen, and they know this very well.

"This just shows that they have encountered quite troublesome and difficult enemies, Councilor Lantoni. I understand that you are shouldering the important task of the Ten-Town Alliance this time. But please be sure to obey my orders. After all, we have to figure it out first.

Who is the opponent? Although the army of the Golden City is not strong, it is not vulnerable. There are three strong men in the legendary field here. If you can force them to ask for help, the problem must be quite serious."

"I can understand, General Kafka."

After hearing Kafka's warning, Senator Lantoni smiled and nodded to him gracefully.

"Everything must be done carefully, so we will send elite soldiers here - but you are the commander, so naturally everything on the battlefield is decided by you. Of course, we must do a good job to the best of our ability.

Be prepared and vigilant, General, if you are not confident enough, please be sure not to take action."

"Of course. I know very well."

Facing Councilor Lantoni's vague reminder, Kafka nodded. The reason why the Ten Towns sent reinforcements was entirely based on the "March Agreement" signed by both parties. This is a contract signed by all the large forces in the west. The regulations.

When one party issues a request for assistance, nearby people must provide a certain degree of assistance. Naturally, the Ten-Town Alliance does not want to be labeled as treacherous. Therefore, it ordered the Mad Lion Legion to set off quickly to the Golden City for reinforcements.

But after all, there are loopholes in any agreement. The "March Agreement" does not stipulate that reinforcements must assist the other party in defeating the enemy. After all, the battlefield is ever-changing, and if anything goes wrong...for example, when they arrive,

The opponent is completely dead. In this state, the reinforcements naturally do not need to fight.

Now Congressman Lantoni is asking General Kafka to "act with caution" because of the same consideration.

After all, they have no obligation to die for potential enemies who are desperately resisting, right?

Turning around the mountainside, the Golden City was already in sight, but the further he looked forward, the more doubtful General Kafka's face became. As a strong man who has stepped into the legendary realm, Kafka did not need the help of light.

He could see everything in front of him clearly. But now, for the first time, he wondered if there was something wrong with his eyes.

In front of Kafka, he saw the Golden City standing there quietly, and everything looked extremely peaceful. There was no battle as he imagined, no fire, and no shouts. Looking around, Kafka

Fuka could even see the lights on the mountainside where the nobles were going. For a moment, he even thought that these guys in the Golden City were setting traps to frame him by asking for help, but what good would this do to them?

But soon, Kafka realized something was wrong.

It's too quiet.

Looking up, the city gate in front of me was closed, and there were no sentries on the wall. Even the torches had been extinguished. Even in the doorway of the city wall, it was pitch black and there was nothing. When I listened carefully, there was no sound inside.

, so quiet that it seemed like a dead city.

This isn't right.

Kafka soon realized that there was something wrong. As a legendary swordsman, his sensory attributes were also keen. Logically speaking, even if someone set an ambush, he should be able to hear the breathing of those people.

Yes. But no matter how hard he concentrated, he could not detect the existence of living things.

It seems that Orante City is indeed in big trouble.

The army quickly arrived at the city. There were no sentries above, so everyone did not need to be too cautious. However, the abnormal situation in front of them still made them more vigilant. On the way here, they had imagined the scene of the Golden City blazing into the sky.

, but I never thought that I would encounter such a strange situation.

What is going on right now?

"Scouts are ready. Go check out the situation and open the city gate."

Kafka glanced at the horizon. There was already a trace of fish belly white appearing there. Dawn was approaching and it was good news for him that he did not have to fight in the dark. Although the combat effectiveness of the Mad Lion Army was not bad, because of this, he also

He was unwilling to let his elite men die in vain.

Soon, following Kafka's order, several scouts in black came to the bottom of the city wall. They threw out the hooks in their hands and hung them on the city wall. Then these guys followed the rope as nimbly as monkeys.

Climbing up. In just a moment, they had reached the top of the city wall. These scouts quickly glanced around, and then disappeared deep into the dark city wall. Seeing this scene, Kafka's inner uneasiness became more and more serious.

, but at this moment, he could only suppress the trembling deep in his heart and wait for the scout's return.

Soon, the scouts came to him again.

"Sir, there is no movement."

"No movement?"

Hearing this, Kafka raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Yes, there was no movement inside. Our people found traces of fighting and some blood stains. But no bodies were found, not a single body. Looking from the city wall, some buildings in the civilian area were damaged.

There seemed to be an attack, but other than that there was nothing. No one on the street. Nothing.

Speaking of this, the scout's face also showed a trace of unconcealable fear. Although he did not explain it, he felt that he would never be able to forget the scene he saw on the city wall for the rest of his life. The whole city was shrouded in heavy rain.

It was dark and dead except for the sound of rain. Looking around, the wreckage of the houses shrouded in darkness and beaten by the rain seemed like silent corpses, and the whole city seemed like a tomb of death.

Yuan. For a moment, even the secret agent leader who had experienced hundreds of battles and witnessed countless killings felt out of breath. It was as if he had been thrown into a coffin and could only wait to die.

However, he did not tell General Kafka what he thought. He just thought it would be better to hide behind him for a while to be on the safe side. For some reason, he always had an ominous premonition when facing this dying city. This

It was the intuition of a battlefield veteran who had experienced countless lives and deaths. He felt that there must be nothing good in this.

But unfortunately, as a soldier, he must carry out orders.

"Open the city gate and let's enter the city."

The thick and tall city gate slowly leveled, and even made a dull sound when it landed on the ground. However, no one cared about it. Under the leadership of Kafka, the Mad Lions strode into the city.

.They are all elite soldiers who have experienced hundreds of battles. The moment they rushed into the city, the forwards had already set up a defensive formation to resist any attack that was likely to come from the enemy. The soldiers from the rear also quickly poured in, and in the city

They gathered at the door, holding swords and shields and staring vigilantly at the surrounding darkness.

But there is nothing there.

"keep going."

Kafka hesitated for a moment, and finally gave the order. The rain was gradually getting lighter, and the sky was gradually getting brighter. For them, the obstruction of darkness was no longer so dangerous, although the golden city was now

Kafka was also very surprised by the appearance of this ghost, but if he did not move forward, he would not figure out what happened. However, to be on the safe side, Kafka still deployed nearly a hundred soldiers to guard

The city walls and gates were built to avoid accidents. Then he led the army and marched into the city.

But at this time, a sudden change occurred.

"boom………!"

Along with the sound of the machine, the originally flat city gate suddenly began to rise. It suddenly stood up like a mousetrap, blocking the city gate again. And the soldiers standing on the city gate did not have time.

After reacting, he screamed and fell from the city gate to the ground, making him dizzy.

When Kafka turned his head in surprise, he saw that behind him, the city gate had been completely closed again.

"Damn, defensive formation, prepare to fight!!"

Seeing this scene, how could Kafka not know that they had encountered an ambush, but what puzzled him was that he clearly did not realize that anyone was here. Who was attacking him?

But soon, he knew the answer.

The earth began to tremble.

Each arm was suddenly raised like a sapling emerging from the ground, and jumped out of the ground. The next moment, the cold dead crawled out from under the earth with an angry roar, completely surrounding the soldiers in front of them.

.

Undead!!

At this moment, Kafka's expression finally changed. (To be continued...)
