Two hours have passed, and the troops sent by the federation have been contacting various medium-sized cities, trying to find whether there are still rebels inside the city.
Don't tell me, I did let them get in touch.
Through feedback from the rebels, Yang Jie has also received news that there is indeed a secret passage somewhere in the city.
The purpose of the secret tunnel is to allow people to evacuate safely when encountering a very critical situation.
It's just that when the natural disaster launched its attack last time, it was too fast and the secret passage was of no use at all.
Following tips from the rebels, they finally found a secret passage leading into the city.
The secret passage is about ten miles away from the outside of the city wall, which is already very far away.
It is not easy to open such a long secret passage that is so hidden that it can hardly be discovered.
Yang Jie did not arrange military operations, but planned to send a few people to investigate the situation before making a decision.
It would be best if the hostages could be rescued in advance.
Those who can perform this task must be strong. Those who are weak will die if they are discovered inside.
There were only six experts at the scene who had reached the ninth level. In addition, Ye Ling, a non-staff member, was very powerful. The power he unleashed was obvious to all and was not weaker than the ninth level.
Yang Jie and Xu Feng have to stay in charge of the army and pay attention to battlefield trends anytime and anywhere.
The other two cities are mainly stationed at other armies in the surrounding area, making it inconvenient to go there.
Therefore, the only remaining candidates are the other two ninth-level powerhouses and Ye Ling.
This time the task naturally fell on the three of them. The three of them went to three different cities to find out the situation.
Looking at the three people in front of him, Yang Jie said seriously.
"Three of you, this mission is very special. I can only trust you three. Please go in and check the situation in the city.
If there is definitely a chance to take away civilians and evacuate them from the secret passage, that would naturally be the best.
If it doesn't work, don't force it. I'll only give you three hours.
The army will launch the next attack in three hours, and we must come back safely."
Time itself is already very tight, so being able to give these three hours of rescue time is already very good.
There is no way to ask for too much, the Federation does not have time to waste it slowly.
According to previous communications from the Holy City, we learned that the dark clouds in the sky of Shiwanda Mountain are moving rapidly, and it will take at most half a day to reach the edge of the mountain range.
The war over there is about to break out, and the war here must end as soon as possible.
"clear!"
Ye Ling and the other three also knew the urgency of time and nodded one after another.
"Okay! Then you should start taking action quickly and hurry up!"
Yang Jie did not continue to waste time talking nonsense, now he had to race against time.
Then, Ye Ling and the others started taking action.
The remaining two ninth-level powerhouses went to two adjacent medium-sized cities respectively, and naturally the medium-sized city in front of them was left to Ye Ling.
Under the guidance of the communication, Ye Ling arrived at the entrance of the secret passage very smoothly.
It’s a mountain wall!
It doesn't look like there is an entrance at all.
Ye Ling searched the mountain wall according to the communication instructions, and soon found the so-called entrance, which was very hidden.
Without careful observation, it would be impossible to discover this secret passage.
No wonder it can be called a secret passage. Such a hidden location is almost impossible to discover.
After successfully entering the secret passage, what came into view was a long and extremely dark passage.
Ye Ling has super perception and is not worried about what he will encounter.
The passage is relatively spacious, almost five meters wide and three meters high.
Building such a long passage probably cost a lot of material and financial resources at that time.
Ye Ling spread his angel wings behind him.
This space is barely enough for flying, as long as you control it a little and don't touch the stone wall of the passage.
"Uh-huh!!"
A white light passed through the passage at an extremely fast speed.
It is a full ten miles from the entrance of the passage to the city gate, and it is at least more than ten miles to reach the end of the passage in the city.
It would take Ye Ling at least a few minutes to fly at full speed.
The premise is that the channel in the middle remains straight without any bends or the like.
…
At this moment, the medium-sized city that Ye Ling secretly went to had many natural disaster members guarding the city walls.
Looking at the motionless federal army in the distance, the bearded natural disaster said in confusion.
"You said...why haven't these federal troops attacked yet? Are they resting and recuperating?"
The thin man next to him, Scourge, shrugged slightly.
"How do I know? Maybe they are afraid of our current strength? Hahahaha!"
As he spoke, he laughed.
"Uh-huh!!"
At this moment, they suddenly heard a very faint sound coming from below.
The two looked around in confusion and found nothing under the city wall.
"Did you hear anything just now? I seemed to hear something swishing?"
"I seem to have heard it, but I also seem not to have heard it, ε=(??ο｀*))) Well, why bother with so much now, let's do our own work."
In this way, the two completely ignored a crucial detail.
Because of this, Ye Ling successfully entered this medium-sized city very smoothly.
After entering the city, Ye Ling's speed finally slowed down.
It wasn't that he didn't want to speed up, but that the secret passage in the city suddenly forked, and there were three forked roads in front of him.
There are three secret passages, and he doesn't know which one is closer to the hostages now, so he can only rely on his own blind exploration.
Choosing the leftmost passage first, Ye Ling sped up and ran towards the end.
After a few more minutes, Ye Ling felt that he had finally reached the end of the passage.
Slowing down the speed, stopping slowly, retracting the angel wings behind him, Ye Ling carefully arrived at the end of the passage.
In this case, you must be careful. If it is exposed, it may lead to a large number of natural disasters.
Moreover, there may be existences such as natural disaster elders in this city. If they are lured here by then, I am afraid it will be very troublesome.
I came here not to fight, but to find out the situation of the hostages. If I can save them, I will save them. If I can't save them, I won't tell them.
Carefully pushing open the iron door, Ye Ling looked around and found that no one was around before slipping out.
The location he is currently in looks like an older building.
Not surprisingly, it was probably built together when the city was built, so it has quite a history.
No wonder they are not electronic doors, but the very thick iron doors from the past.
