Li Te did not appear among the reinforcements, which made Tang Zhen feel that something was wrong. How could he miss such an important thing so easily?
Unless there was something important that prevented him from getting away, he did not attend the scene in person.
When he turned to look at the bone, he saw a trace of worry on his face, obviously guessing something.
"What happened? Could it be that..."
Tang Zhen guessed a possibility, but he didn't ask any more questions, but kept the matter in mind.
After he went back, he planned to conduct a thorough investigation to see what the hell Li Te was up to.
As the enemy troops and the city lord fled one after another, the major problem in Tianxu City was solved, at least there would be no trouble in a short period of time.
Use this peaceful time to strengthen the defense of Tianxu City in order to deal with more powerful enemies.
After waiting for a period of time, the poisonous smoke in the enemy camp dispersed, and the cleaning of the battlefield began.
Someone directed the believers to collect all the soldiers, armor, and provisions left in the enemy camp, and then transport them back to Tianxu City by vehicle.
If you can't take away anything, just set it on fire. In short, you can't leave it to the enemy.
When encountering some soldiers who were knocked down by smoke, they were tied up and taken back to Tianxu City. Those who dared to resist were executed directly.
There was no need for Tang Zhen to clean up the battlefield, so he took Na Gu and others, and under the shocked and envious eyes of a group of believers, took the rune airship back to Tianxu City.
When it flew over Tianxu City, it naturally caused another shock. However, in such a sensational scene, Li Te was still not involved.
Tang Zhen's doubts became even stronger.
The place where the rune airship was parked was in the center of the original city lord's palace, but now it has become a military restricted area.
The cannons that have been cast in the underground city are continuously transported up by believers and arranged to appropriate locations.
Because they control Tianxu City and have enough materials, the believers who are responsible for making weapons can also use their hands freely.
In addition to gold and silver treasures, the city lord's mansion also has a variety of material reserves, including a large amount of metal materials.
Upon seeing this, the believers of the Alarm Bell Church simply moved the manufacturing site to the City Lord's Mansion, eliminating the trouble of moving it.
Such a busy scene is enough to prove the efforts of the believers of the Alarm Bell Church. They are really preparing to defend against the outbreak of the demonic tide.
After sending people to guard the rune airship and strictly prohibiting outsiders from approaching, Tang Zhen took You Jiu and moved into the city lord's mansion.
Na Gu did not continue to follow, but left in a hurry, obviously worried about Li Te's safety.
Looking at Li Te's back, Tang Zhen narrowed his eyes slightly, seeming to be thinking about something.
"Why has the city lord you mentioned never shown up? Is he expressing dissatisfaction with you?"
Youjiu took a piece of dried meat, put it in his mouth, chewed it slowly, and said in a light tone.
"Do you think an old ghost who has lived for thousands of years would behave in such a childish way and deliberately strain the relationship between the two parties?"
Hearing Tang Zhen's rhetorical question, Youjiu shook his head.
"An old fox like this will never reveal a single flaw before he inserts a knife into your heart and confirms that you are dead!"
"Why do I have the feeling that you are talking about yourself?"
"You are wrong, I am talking about my father!"
Hearing Youjiu mention his family, Tang Zhen smiled and asked casually: "Is the surname You very common in Jiuyou territory?"
In the world of building cities, super families abound. Their long lives and strong reproductive capabilities are enough for these families to have countless branches and control every building city.
Hearing Tang Zhen's inquiry, You Jiu replied in a very serious tone: "The surname You is the ancestral surname of the Jiuyou territory. The first lord was named Jiuyou. It is said that he came from an unknown plane and eventually became the third lord.
Lord of the Five War Zones.
It can be said that more than half of the Loucheng monks in Jiuyou territory are his descendants, including me."
"There are so many people named You. If your name is Youjiu, wouldn't it be easy for you to have the same name?"
Hearing Tang Zhen's question, Youjiu laughed "haha" and said in a helpless tone: "Youjiu is just part of my name. In fact, my name has more than two hundred words. Even I sometimes remember it."
Unclear.
Of course, this name is rarely used. After all, everyone relies on mental fluctuations to identify each other's origins, and names more often represent family inheritance."
According to Youjiu, he was an ordinary Loucheng monk from the Jiuyou territory. He had bad luck when teleporting, so he was sent to the Labyrinth City.
Tang Zhen smiled and said nothing, but in his heart he didn't believe You Jiu's lies.
After his analysis during this period, he vaguely guessed the rules of the original teleportation. Obviously, the more powerful the Loucheng monks would be, the more unfavorable the start would be.
For example, they will be teleported to dangerous and difficult locations, and they will never be teleported together with their companions. There will often be Loucheng monks from other war zones around them, and they will appear in groups.
The purpose of doing this may be to maintain fairness as much as possible. Even if the ordinary Loucheng monks are in groups, they may not be the opponents of the elite monks.
Just looking at Tang Zhen's performance is enough to prove this point. Even though he was surrounded by thousands of monks from Loucheng, he still managed to kill him!
Tang Zhen can be sure that in this competition, there should be many Loucheng monks who were teleported alone.
Especially among the top ten war zones, there should be countless monks who encounter Loucheng monks teleporting alone.
The Youjiu in front of you is a Loucheng monk who teleported alone. It seems that he had a conflict with the cornerstone platform before and was plotted against him.
The cornerstone platform is not so trivial. Tang Zhen is more likely to do it on purpose, just to create difficulty for You Jiu.
How can he be a simple person if he can be treated like this by the Cornerstone Platform?
In fact, it was precisely for this reason that Tang Zhen went to the rescue in person, with the purpose of establishing a good relationship with Youjiu.
Such an elite monk is far more valuable than a group of ordinary monks, and is definitely worthy of Tang Zhen's cooperation and friendship.
Looking at Tang Zhen who was silent, You Jiu asked back: "By the way, you haven't said where you are from yet. Since you are a partner, shouldn't you also indicate your origin?"
"We all belong to the fifth theater of war. It doesn't actually matter where we come from."
"No, it's very important. It determines whether we can cooperate in depth."
You Jiu's expression was very serious, looking at Tang Zhen intently, waiting for his answer.
"Can you represent the Jiuyou Territory?"
"You can give it a try, maybe someone will listen to me!"
"Well, let's get to know each other formally. I come from the Rift Territory and my name is Tang Zhen."
"Tang Zhen...hehe, it turns out to be you!"
…
After Na Gu separated from Tang Zhen, he went straight to the headquarters of the Alarm Bell Church, wanting to see what Li Te was doing?
He had a vague premonition that Li Te might take risks and do something that could endanger his life if he was not careful.
"I hope the leader doesn't take risks. If something unexpected happens, it will be a disaster!"
Na Gu murmured to himself in his heart, praying that the things he was worried about would not appear, and at the same time quickened his pace.
Among the Alarm Bell Church, only Na Gu is the most loyal to Li Te, and he is the only one who understands Li Te best.
Not being able to become a monk is Li Te's biggest regret, and he has never given up trying for so many years.
Previously, Tang Zhen used the monster's blood essence to successfully transform Ellie into a monk. When Li Te found out about this, he immediately ordered Na Gu to figure out the specific situation.
Although his expression was calm, it was clear to Na Gu that Li Te must have been very excited at that time.
At this time, Li Te was missing, which made Na Gu believe more and more that he was trying to absorb the blood essence to see if he could become a monk.
It's a pity that he is not around, otherwise he would never let him take the risk.
Halfway through, Nagu met Ellie's mother. She was looking for her daughter everywhere, with an anxious expression on her face.
After learning that Ellie was taken away by the followers of the Alarm Bell Church, Na Gu's heart sank slightly, and the uneasy feeling became stronger.
When they arrived at the place where Li Te lived, Na Gu was stopped by the monk at the door, saying that Li Te had issued an order and no one was allowed to disturb him.
Even that bone cannot be accommodated.
Just when Na Gu insisted on entering, Li Te suddenly appeared, saying that he had no problem and letting Na Gu continue to perform his mission.
But for some reason, Li Te's body faintly exudes a special aura.
Seeing that Li Te was fine, Na Gu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then turned and left with a smile.
Looking at the back of the bone disappearing, Li Te's eyes suddenly turned blood red, but returned to normal in an instant.
He licked the blood from the corners of his lips, let out a dark sneer, and returned to his cold, dark cave.
