"Don't talk too much. Let's observe first."
Du Feng led everyone to hide to the side. Then, he saw another cannon shot down from above the clouds. It was a white pillar of light. It was so bright that it looked like the sun had fallen from the sky.
Why were they still shooting? That cannon shot seemed to have wiped out all the extraterrestrial demons in the city. Du Feng wasn't the only one who found it strange. Everyone else found it strange.
"Rumble …"
Regardless of whether the onlookers understood it or not, they still fired from high up in the sky. The entire city was shaking and the earth was shaking. That was a ruthless move. They fired the cannons repeatedly. Du Feng realized that they were trying to kill the Devil Fetus underground.
Because the demon fetus was hidden very deep, it was hard to pinpoint its location and attack it.
Actually, Du Feng and the others, including those who died in there, were all cannon fodder. They were responsible for killing a large number of minions and attracting the demon fetus to attack. Once the demon fetus attacked, its location would naturally be locked on. The people high up in the clouds must have already locked on to the location of all the demon fetus in the city. That was why they were firing crazily.
Du Feng counted for them. They only stopped after firing five shots. This meant that other than the demon fetus he killed, there were five more in the city. Actually, the one he killed was purely an accident. The upper echelons of Coiling Dragon World thought that this batch of students were here to die. They didn't expect that someone could kill the demon fetus.
"F * ck, what are they trying to do? Are they using us as cannon fodder?"
The Dragon Emperor cursed. He wasn't the only one cursing. Many people were indignant. Everyone had worked so hard to kill their way in, and then guarded the main hall for an entire night in trepidation, but in the end, this was the result.
Of course, they thought that they were here to protect the city and not to destroy the buildings inside. But now, after a few shots … Other than the City Lord Manor and the city walls, all the buildings inside were blown to pieces. Those shops that people flocked to like ducks were also smashed to smithereens. The valuables that were not taken away in time were all turned to dust.
"Everyone, you have worked hard. Thank you for helping me get back the Dragon City of Memories. Hahaha …"
A red-bearded man appeared in the sky with many warriors behind him. If his guess was correct, he was the previous city lord of this city. He had fled because of the invasion of the Extraterrestrial Demons. Now that the opportunity had come, he would use the Dragon Gate Cannon to steal the credit.
"What hard work? It's not as hard as you."
"That's right. It must have been hard for you to be so high and mighty. You've fired quite a few cannons."
Everyone said the same thing, and their words were also very sour. After all, they had sacrificed so many lives to help the enemy retake the city.
"Hey, you can't say that. I, Hong Hong, will remember everyone's contributions and have already reported them to all of you. "
This Hong City Lord was very thick-skinned and didn't feel ashamed at all to take advantage of others. Actually, with the City Lord's Manor's strength and the Dragon Gate Cannon, the Otherworldly Demons should not have been able to take over the city. The main reason was that a female Extraterrestrial Demon had appeared. Her attacks were simply too fast, and since they couldn't beat her up, they could only retreat for now.
Later on, they discovered that the female Extraterrestrial Demon had left, and most of the Extraterrestrial Demons in the city had been wiped out. Naturally, they had to take back the city. The destroyed buildings were easy to deal with. They just had to let the residents come back and rebuild their homes.
I understand now. You're playing politics with me. Let the students charge in as cannon fodder, then you can hide in the city and continue to be the high and mighty City Lord. Frankly speaking, this Hong City Lord's Cultivation Level was not low. He was at the First Stage of the Ninth Transformation of the Divine Emperor Realm. Although he wasn't at the peak of the Ninth Transformation, he wasn't weak either.
Even such a fellow had fled back then. This meant that the invading Extraterrestrial Demons were very powerful.
"Congratulations on achieving your wish, City Lord Hong. If there's nothing else, we'll take our leave first."
Du Feng looked at the sky. After such a long battle, the sky was starting to darken. If they didn't leave now, it would be too late.
"Don't be anxious, everyone. Why don't you stay here tonight? Now that the city has been cleaned up, it's very safe to stay here. "
When City Lord Hong saw that Du Feng and the others were about to leave, he quickly came over to urge them to stay. His words seemed to make sense. The safest place now should be Dragon Memory City. After being bombarded by the Dragon Gate Cannon, even the Devil Fetus had been cleaned up. As for lodging, it wasn't difficult. The City Lord's Residence was very large. Moreover, the students had brought their own shrines with them.
Some of them were tempted after hearing what he said. Hence, they were considering whether or not to stay tonight. Seeing how enthusiastic City Lord Hong was, he would probably treat them well.
But Du Feng didn't think so. He immediately said, "Sorry, I have to go back and report to City Lord Yan. I won't disturb you any longer."
The City Lord Yan he mentioned was the City Lord of Sword Dragon City. The City Lord of Sword Dragon City was of a higher rank than City Lord Hong.
"Since that's the case, I won't force you to stay. You must come again when you have time."
When City Lord Hong heard City Lord Yan's name, his expression changed. For a moment, he couldn't tell if Du Feng was speaking the truth. This was because ordinary people didn't dare to casually mention City Lord Yan's name. Moreover, he already knew that Du Feng's performance was indeed outstanding. Such a young genius might really be put in an important position by City Lord Yan.
Hence, he didn't dare to stop them. He just wanted to let Du Feng and the others leave.
After running far away, the Dragon Emperor asked Du Feng, "Did City Lord Yan look for you? Why didn't I know?"
"I don't know if Castellan Yan has looked for Brother Du, but he will definitely be cannon fodder if he stays here tonight." Mo Ziren answered the question for Du Feng because he had already understood the situation.
City Lord Hong definitely didn't have good intentions when he asked them to stay. One had to know that night was when the extraterrestrial demons were most rampant. He had killed all the demonic fetuses in the city. That meant that the extraterrestrial demons outside the city would definitely attack the city tonight. Now that the residents of Dragon Memory City hadn't returned yet, the city guards might not be able to hold them off.
Hence, the students who stayed would naturally be used as cannon fodder again.
"Oh, so that's what happened."
The Dragon Emperor suddenly understood why Du Feng had lied. Actually, using City Lord Yan's name to lie wasn't a big deal. This was because they were originally sent by Sword Dragon City. In a sense, they were sent by City Lord Yan. There was nothing wrong with returning to the City Lord Residence to report.
"Haha, Brother Du, you're too cunning."
The Dragon Emperor rubbed his head. Although his combat power had increased greatly, he was still far from Du Feng in this matter.
"Let's go. It's getting dark."
Du Feng looked at the sky and urged everyone to move quickly.
