After the continuous battles, the inner city of the Acropolis was in chaos. Finally, before dawn on the third day, as Shen Ji and a large group of people left the Acropolis, they could finally take a breather.
It's just that after Shen Ji and a large group of people left, they couldn't really restore peace to the Acropolis. Now the Acropolis is in chaos. A large number of warriors were mobilized to search for the whereabouts of Zuo Feng and others. They even searched for Zuo Feng and others.
Shen Jidu only found out the news one or two hours after she left the Acropolis.
Counting the days when they were chased by the beasts the night before, they had not had any rest for a day or two. For not receiving any reward, they could only curse in their hearts, but the problem was that there were still many
People soon realized that they didn’t even have a home anymore.
Due to successive battles, many houses in the inner city of the Acropolis were destroyed. The battle between Shen Ji and Zheng Lu, including Zhu Tao's later participation, extended from Duobao Trading House to the east gate of the inner city.
nearby.
If the battle between the eighth-level warriors in the Yu Nian stage and the eighth-level transformed monsters had not been carried out in a stable place in the acropolis, I am afraid that the inner city would have been completely turned into ruins by now.
It's just that the current situation is not much better, because those families and forces with strength and background, their families and mansions are close to the center of the city, and the place where the war caused the most serious damage is precisely the area in the center of the city.
Among them, the most serious damage was caused by Zheng Lu and Zhu Tao's joint attack. However, because Zuo Feng and Shan Ji were in another space, the attack directly covered a radius of seven or eight miles.
When many warriors returned, not only were their mansions and courtyards gone, but their relatives and tribesmen were also slaughtered. The problem was that the person who did this was not the enemy they were looking for, but the high priest of their own empire.
Faced with all this, some people are almost going crazy, and they have developed deep resentment towards the high priest and the sacrificial hall. At the same time, some people have buried this anger and hatred in their hearts, and they have to wait for the right person.
Opportunity to retaliate again.
Zheng Lu is too lazy to pay attention to the dissatisfaction, anger, and even resentment of these warriors in the city. He has no energy to pay attention to it. There are two things he is most eager to do now. One is to report what happened in the Acropolis to the empire. The matter has already reached this point.
Even if a high priest dies, he, Zheng Lu, must report such a big thing to the empire.
After he reported the information about the Acropolis, Zheng Lu began to retreat to recover. He must now seize all the time to restore his strength.
Although the mutual promise was for five years, what he was most worried about was that the other party would not give him any time to breathe and would immediately launch revenge. Without new support from the Ye Lin Empire and the arrival of other high priests, the entire New Hunter
The county must ensure that it does not fall into the hands of the monsters and the Icefield clan.
Zheng Lu is quite relieved about the Icefield Clan. After all, the Icefield Clan was almost extinct at the hands of the Ye Lin Empire hundreds of years ago. According to the chief priest, only some remnants of the Icefield Clan are left, hiding back to where they originated.
The extreme north is no longer a threat at all.
As for the monster beast clan in the Tianping Mountains, according to the intelligence over the years, the eighth-level monsters are already the strongest in the Tianping Mountains. I am afraid that the strongest in terms of strength is just the eighth-level transformation flash that I have fought against.
Wolf beast.
Zheng Lu believed that if the two sides had another chance to fight, he would be absolutely sure to defeat the opponent by using the "Armor of Dark Night". The previous failure was entirely due to the damn "Punishment of Order".
Of course, in addition to these most important matters, Zheng Lu also made layout and arrangements for the Acropolis. Things within the Acropolis were handed over to Zeng Jiang and Linhu, with Zeng Jiang as the main decision-maker, and Jiang Xin and
Burka cooperates with the action.
In the previous battle, Zheng Lu naturally knew about the escape of Lin Hu, Jiang Xin and others. But given the current situation in the Acropolis, he was too lazy to delve into it further.
Zeng Jiang risked the lives of nearly eight of his men, and even his own life was almost taken away. Now he finally got his reward. Zheng Lu seemed to have just asked Zeng Jiang to take charge of defending the city, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that.
, Zheng Lu was determined to let Zeng Jiang succeed Wu Tian and become the new master of Yu Pavilion.
Zeng Jiang was naturally secretly happy in his heart, and on the surface he was working even harder. He was working hard to deploy manpower to repair the sacrificial branch hall and the city lord's palace as soon as possible. At the same time, he was looking for formation masters in the city to reinforce the city's protective formation.
His idea was certainly good, but the city defense formation came from the Soul Sacrifice Hall and the Great Soul Sacrifice. Even if the materials were sufficient, ordinary people could not complete the reinforcement. When the reinforcement formation failed, Zeng Jiang sent people to Xinshou County.
The purpose of liaison with the city was to inform the Acropolis of what happened, and also to ask for help from Shinkari County.
The Ye Lin Empire will send strong men here, but the closest place where a large number of strong men can be mobilized in a short period of time is the Shinkari County.
Whether it was Zheng Lu or Zeng Jiang, at this time, they undoubtedly focused their attention on the inner city or outside the acropolis, but ignored the middle area of the outer city. The protection and warning of the outer city, Zeng
Jiangdu was all handed over, and the main force of Hongcheng City had just arrived.
Of course, not everyone had the same idea. At least Linhu and Boka, after Zheng Lu began to retreat, they focused their attention on the outer city. At the same time, they also quietly sent out their trusted subordinates.
Outer city.
It's not that they have guessed that Zuo Feng and others are staying in the outer city, but that they have identified Zuo Feng as his prey. Even if there is no trace of Zuo Feng now, they believe that the Zuojia villager who has never been heard from is outside.
The opportunity in the city is very good.
If you want to dig out Zuo Feng's secrets, then the people in Zuojia Village and Zuo Feng's family are undoubtedly the best bargaining chips.
After experiencing the previous changes in the Acropolis, they were not only jealous and afraid of Zuo Feng, but also had an uncontrollable desire. Lin Hu and Boka originally just speculated that Zuo Feng had a huge secret.
, but now they are completely sure.
A transformed monster that has just reached the eighth level can be allowed to deal with two strong men in the mind-controlling stage at the same time, especially the two high priests wearing the "Armor of the Dark Night", but in the end it will result in one death and one serious injury.
Maybe it was the flash wolf beast that attracted the "Sky Ring", but being able to use it was clearly Zuo Feng's method.
Now Zuo Feng, to Lin Hu and Bo Ka, is a huge treasure. No matter how much cost and energy they spend, they are determined to dig out this treasure and make it their own.
Under this huge temptation, the "glass" combination of Linhu and Boka started to join forces again. However, the losses of their subordinates were too serious now, so a new one was added to this combination.
A member of the Acropolis, he is Jiang Xin, the lord of the Acropolis.
As a result, the form of the entire Acropolis has quietly differentiated. Zheng Lu, who was ostensibly in charge of the Acropolis, was recovering from his injuries in seclusion and ignored the outside world, so his existence became dispensable.
,
After gaining power, Zeng Jiang became the de facto controller of the Acropolis. However, the power he could mobilize, or the people who actually worked for him, were very few. A large number of Benxiao Pavilion warriors, in Zheng Lu, Zhu Tao and Shan Ji
In the first battle, they were directly sacrificed and died, and there were less than thirty warriors left.
The other city guards basically obeyed Jiang Xin's orders, but Jiang Xin was disobeying Zeng Jiangyang, and his main energy had been transferred to the outer city with Linhu and Boka.
When most of the powerful people gathered in the outer city, the outer city began to become lively without realizing it. The chaos in the inner city in the past two days did not have much impact on the outer city. Except for Zheng Lu's forced destruction before
When the formation was activated to seal the area, it caused some damage near the west city gate.
However, after two consecutive days of chaos in the inner city, the outer city ushered in a bustle that no one expected. It can also be said that after the Acropolis released the formation seal, there was a "shopping spree".
Cargo craze”.
After years of development, Acropolis has become the largest cargo distribution center second only to Shinkari County. Various medicinal materials and materials from monster beasts, and even live monster beasts, are sold here, and some materials are even sold
Soon after, it appeared in the trading houses of other empires.
Because of the geographical conditions and advantages of Acropolis, in recent years, there has been a gradual trend of catching up and surpassing Shinkari County in terms of goods sales.
The busiest time of year in Xinkou County is during the two hunting seasons, one in late winter and the other in early autumn. Whenever the Ye Lin Empire conducts a large-scale hunting, a large amount of supplies will be sold immediately. Among them, in addition to
The Ye Lin Empire benefits the most, and there are also some forces belonging to various parties that can also get a share of the pie.
In the original Duobao Trading House, the Sacrifice Branch Hall and the City Lord's Mansion, such forces would secretly send out hunting teams, and at the same time, take advantage of the large number of people coming to New Hunting County to purchase goods, and quickly sell them out.
Because a large amount of income is in the hands of the Ye Lin Empire, other forces will not be noticed if they fish in troubled waters. The forces in the inner city hide a large number of monsters mainly to wait until the hunting is over at the end of winter.
Start selling secretly.
But now an accident has not only ended the late winter hunting, but also turned the entire inner city of the Acropolis upside down. The largest trading house in the Acropolis, Duobao Trading House, was directly reduced to ruins, and even Duobao Trading House
Everything within a few miles around was reduced to ruins.
There were many other large auction houses, trading houses, and shops selling medicinal materials and monster materials, all of which were completely reduced to nothing under the bombardment of Zheng Lu and Zhu Tao.
A large number of goods in the inner city are gone, but the traders who come from all over the empire, even from all over the mainland, will never return empty-handed. They travel long distances just to buy goods here.
They make profits by selling them everywhere, but if they return empty-handed, they will suffer huge losses.
Now that the inner city is no longer good, these people have focused their attention on the outer city, which has hardly been affected. The original outer city also has a lot of goods, but it has never been as large as the inner city, and it has always been affected.
Inner-city repression.
Now that the inner city has no time to take care of itself, all the shops in the outer city, knowing that the opportunity has arrived, have taken out all their goods. Suddenly, traders from all walks of life gathered in the outer city and set off a vigorous shopping frenzy.
But amid this lively and chaotic shopping frenzy, some people have quietly taken action.
