NO.151 The truth of the Dreamland
Zhang Yaoyang has tried before that any animal in this world can be swallowed by tentacles, but unless it is a human, even if it is a human, the increase in tentacles will be very pitiful. On the contrary, if it is a human or a ghoul that is extremely close to humans, the tentacles will become stronger almost at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Last night, Zhang Yaoyang devoured hundreds of soldiers outside the city and used missiles to destroy the city gate. He was originally planning to directly force the city lords to obtain information about the world, but when he saw Cruise, he suddenly changed his mind.
It is impossible to become a qualified ruler by virtue of violence and oppression alone. This has been verified many times in major dynasties and history. However, sometimes when you turn a little and put a fig leaf on it that can make your face pass, everything will become more natural.
The idiom that uses the emperor to command princes is born for this.
So, instead of killing Cruise, Zhang Yaoyang left the other party behind and reached a mutually beneficial deal with the other party.
Then, without saying a word, Zhang Yaoyang left the slum and walked towards the castle.
At this moment, the entire city had already fallen into full martial law. Thousands of troops patrolled the streets, allowing a demon who could eat people without blinking into the city. Not to mention the city lord, even the people on the streets were as if they were facing a great enemy and did not dare to show their heads.
Zhang Yaoyang's appearance soon attracted the attention of a lot of city defense forces. These people saw Zhang Yaoyang's iconic black cloak as if facing a great enemy, while Zhang Yaoyang didn't care at all. His eyebrows quickly squirmed, and in the blink of an eye, six tentacles stretched out. Each of these tentacles was more than twenty meters long, waving around the sky, like a huge octopus!
"He's there!"
The screams of countless people came, and Zhang Yaoyang's body did not move. Instead, these tentacles replaced Zhang Yaoyang's limbs and rushed towards the direction of the castle quickly, crashing into the castle like thunder!
boom!
With a violent sound, the solid fortress made of obsidian collapsed, and countless people's screams and howls came, but these screams were like female goose strangled, and the screams came to an abrupt end!
When everything came to silence, Zhang Yaoyang slowly walked out of it. At this time, thousands of city defense forces had surrounded the castle, but no one dared to take a step.
"There is someone on the other party's tentacles!"
"Look, that's Your Highness the City Lord!"
"This demon actually ate the city lord..."
"Run!"
As Zhang Yaoyang waved countless tentacles again, the soldiers finally collapsed. They began to throw away their armor and cried and fled to the distance. Zhang Yaoyang ignored these people, but left the city in full view of everyone and walked towards the wilderness in the distance.
Until Zhang Yaoyang's figure disappeared outside the city, the terrified people returned to the castle tentatively. However, with the bad news, the city lord and other remaining descendants were all kidnapped by the monster, leaving only a few young and beautiful concubines and an elderly general manager-
The heir of the city lord is dead.
As the news came out, everyone took a breath of air. Many people with certain strength flashed their expressions. Almost instantly, a special atmosphere spread throughout the city.
However, before this atmosphere could be brewed and exploded, the city defense force again heard good news. His Highness Cruise, who had been abducted before, is still alive. In other words, this lucky Your Highness has become the only legal heir in the city!
The next thing was very simple. Although Cruise's faction suffered heavy losses in the previous battle, as the best among the city lord's many descendants, Cruise still took up the throne of the city lord without any suspense with his former connections and background.
Three days later.
Cruise sat as he wished, on the main seat of the council hall in the castle - a throne that symbolized the peak of power. He looked at the empty hall below the stage, and his originally joyful expression suddenly dimmed, and then sighed.
Now, he has finally achieved his dream for many years and stood at the highest point of the city of Selephis. However, all this was obtained under the charity of others. At this time, he was like a marionette, becoming a puppet, a toy that others could replace at any time.
What's the point of such a city lord?
"What are you thinking?"
Just when Cruise's expression was dim, the nightmarish figure suddenly appeared outside the door of the hall. Cruise trembled all over and stood up quickly, and squeezed out a smile that was even worse than crying, "Old Master, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
"Are the information and sacrifices ready?" Zhang Yaoyang, who was under the black cloak, asked instead.
"Please rest assured, I have ordered people to sort out all the information and documents in the castle, and put them in the back hall. You can go and check them at any time." Cruise said quickly, "And I have locked them in the dungeon of the castle. There are a total of 183 criminals. In addition, we have captured three ghouls and a moon beast."
"It's done well." Zhang Yaoyang nodded with satisfaction, "As long as you do as I say, I can guarantee that you can firmly sit in the position of the city lord, and even help you in the battle with other city-states."
"Thank you!"
After a brief exchange with Cruise, Zhang Yaoyang came to the back hall alone, and saw a row of bookshelves against the wall of the back hall. These bookshelf were densely packed with hundreds of books, and a large number of books were placed on the ground in front of the bookshelf.
This world is obviously not a high-end civilization, and even printing does not exist. These books are handwritten. Zhang Yaoyang took out a copy of "Geographical Records" and immediately saw that the words in these books were cuneiform words that were very similar to ancient Babylon, and Zhang Yaoyang could understand them, just as magical as he used Chinese but could communicate with the people in this world without any barriers.
Zhang Yaoyang opened the most basic "Geographical Records" and found that this world was outrageous.
The Dream Continent is an isolated land, surrounded by endless dream seas. In addition, there is a moon world above your head. You can easily land on the moon by taking a sailboat...
What is even more exaggerated is that this world is not only human civilization. There are actually ghouls, moon beasts, and two independent civilizations. Humans occupy the Dream Continent, while ghouls occupy the underground world, and moon beasts occupy the moon as the name suggests. The three civilizations attack each other, forming a three-legged tripod.
Sure enough, as the spiritual world, anything can happen here.
Zhang Yaoyang shook his head and smiled, but as he looked at the end, the smile on his face suddenly frozen.
Because he saw that on the summary on the first page of the book, he actually marked a crucial sentence:
In fact, there is another name circulated in ancient times, which is: Cat Paradise - Fantasy Dreamland.
