There weren't many guards in Magic City, only fifty thousand. Twenty thousand of them were Sea Clan troops, and thirty thousand were fake troops.
And the closest city to Magic City, Landon City, had nearly a hundred thousand fake troops stationed there.
The so-called fake troops were an army formed by human surrenders. Their fighting strength was really not worth complimenting.
Perhaps True Devil Empire had never thought that such a large army would appear from Divine Phoenix Empire. They had placed most of their troops on the border facing Northern Han.
Especially in the past few days, Northern Han had frequently moved. They had just transferred ten thousand elites from Magic City to assist.
But now, Magic City's military strength was empty. If the other party wanted to attack, they might not be able to defend.
The army finally appeared in front of the people, only one mile away from Magic City.
One of the light cavalry units stepped out and approached the city. They stopped about two hundred meters away from the city.
"Citizens of Magic City and fake troops, listen up. Heaven's chosen one is leading an army to recover Magic City. Those who want to surrender should hurry up, otherwise, the day the city is breached will be the day of your death."
Ling Xiao was indeed a human, but if some people insisted on being dogs for Sea Clan, then he would not hesitate to kill them. There was no need to show mercy.
The one who shouted was Meng Tong. Not only was his voice loud, it also contained abundant Heaven's Origin Energy, to the extent that everyone in Magic City could hear it. It was as loud as thunder.
"There's really going to be a war!"
This time, the people finally knew that it was not an illusion. The army outside the city did not come with good intentions.
However, their goal seemed to be to overthrow True Devil Empire.
For many humans, this was actually something they had always dreamed of. However, when it really came to this, they couldn't help but feel nervous.
Most people still chose to wait and see. Those who originally planned to go to the plaza all fled back home and hid.
There was also a portion of people who wholeheartedly hoped that Heaven's chosen one would attack Magic City, preparing to cooperate with Heaven's chosen one to drive away Sea Clan.
Some of these people were sincerely unwilling to be oppressed by the Sea Clan.
Of course, there was also a portion of people who wanted to earn political capital as soon as possible.
After all, with Magic City destroyed, True Devil Empire was probably not far from destruction. At that time, Heaven's chosen one would definitely establish a new dynasty. If they could join this group earlier, they would be able to be put in an important position earlier.
"What should we do, Captain?"
On the city tower, many people panicked.
"Chi!"
Suddenly, a ray of light flashed without warning, and the panicked human soldier was pierced through.
It was a general of the Sea Race. He used his trident to pick up the human soldier and roared, "Trash, if anyone dares to boost the morale of others and diminish their own prestige, I will kill him!"
The human soldiers were angry but didn't dare to say anything.
This was not the first time someone had been killed.
Moreover, the reason for his death was simply absurd.
That soldier was just afraid and didn't say anything rebellious. In the end, he was killed as if he was a chicken.
"What are you looking at? Organize your archers and prepare to fire!"
The Sea Race's military general was obviously of a higher rank than the guard captain. In addition, he was also a member of the Sea Race, so there was no problem in giving orders.
"Chi!"
However, the Sea Clan's military general did not expect that Ling Xiao had arrived in Demonic City two days earlier and had already contacted the Resistance Nation to arrange for his people to enter.
Before his order could be carried out, his head had already been cut off by a sword.
The one who made the move was a very delicate looking soldier.
She looked like a girl.
In fact, she was a girl in disguise.
Her real identity was Cold Plum.
With her here, the guards of Demonic City existed in name only.
"Open the city gates and let the army in. Otherwise, I will kill all of you."
Cold Plum had always been straightforward. She did not have Ling Xiao's eloquence, so she could only threaten with force.
"Open the gates! Open the gates! Didn't you hear me?"
The guards reacted and hurriedly shouted.
The person in front of them could even easily kill the Sea Race's military general. Wouldn't it be easy for her to kill them?
"Very good. As long as you cooperate, the Chosen One will not mistreat you."
Cold Plum watched as the heavy city gates slowly opened and the army outside the city swarmed in. She finally heaved a sigh of relief.
This was the mission Ling Xiao gave her. If she couldn't complete it, she would feel sorry for Ling Xiao.
…
Almost at the same time, some people had already arrived at the palace.
At this moment, Sea Emperor Jiao Batian, who was under Ling Xiao's control, was holding a banquet for his officials.
The Heroes' Gathering was about to begin. It was said that it was to reward the officials who had worked hard in the process.
Of course, this was also a plan that Ling Xiao had thought of in advance.
He had invited all the Sea Race officials from the nearby cities to Demonic City, preparing to catch them all in one fell swoop.
Even though Demonic Jiao and Landon City's City Lord Jiao Lie were not present, some people were puzzled and angry.
However, at this moment, no one thought that the two of them had already been killed. They only thought that the two of them did not give Jiao Batian any face.
After all, they were all from the same family and their cultivations were similar. Jiao Batian was the Sea Emperor, but they were only City Lords. They would probably be dissatisfied.
"Your Majesty, this is bad! This is bad!"
Perhaps it was because the palace was too sturdy, or perhaps it was because the soundproofing was too good, or perhaps it was because the noise here was too loud, the people present did not hear what was happening outside the city.
They also did not hear Meng Tong's voice.
It wasn't until a eunuch scrambled into the room in a panic that everyone realized something was wrong.
"What's the matter? Why are you in such a panic? Where is your manners! Don't you know that today is the Sea Emperor's banquet? "
The True Demons Empire's number one Devil General, Sha Tongtian, had an ugly expression on his face. He was just in the midst of celebrating when this eunuch suddenly came in. Wasn't this bad luck?
"It's fine. Tell me, what happened?"
Jiao Batian asked.
"Your Majesty, an army has arrived outside the city. They are carrying the banner of the Heavenly Dragon Continent's Heaven's Chosen Child. They are very aggressive."
The eunuch wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said in a trembling voice.
Hearing this, many people's expressions changed.
Sha Tongtian stood up abruptly and was about to go out to check the situation.
"General Sha, it's just a few small thieves. Is there a need for you to go out personally? Today, His Majesty, you, and I, Kong He, are here. What can mere thieves do to us? "
It was worth mentioning that as one of the Ten Great Phoenix Sons of the Divine Phoenix Empire, Kong He was also invited to this banquet.
Hong Li and Bai Qianjiao were both present.
After all, the two of them were the pride of the True Demons Empire and the role models of the younger generation.
"Peacock Phoenix Son, are you saying that we're not going to do anything about this?"
Sha Tongtian asked.
"Let your subordinates take a look. Bring the heads of those vermin over and make them into dishes. Wouldn't that be better?"
Kong He said with a smile.
He did not believe that anyone would have the guts to attack Demonic City.
