Li Xuan saw the danger behind this incident, but when he thought about the entrance to the plane hidden under the Salang's wine cellar, he hoped that Lai Cang would really do something.
He is not afraid of big troubles. The bigger the troubles are, the easier it will be to fish in troubled waters, right?
On the last day of the 1910th year of the Yunteng Empire calendar, although the weather was very cold, Li Cheng and Li Hong got up early in the morning. One of them hung an octagonal lantern at the door, while the other urged
Chef prepares holiday meal.
This is the first time that the two brothers have left Xianyun City to celebrate the New Year outside. Without the constraints of various family rules, they are like fish rushing into the sea from a small pond. They are extremely happy, and they don't feel the slightest sadness of being away from their relatives in their hometown.
Li Xuan also overheard the whispers of the two guys. It seemed that they were planning to celebrate the arrival of the new year by bidding farewell to their innocence, and the targets were no longer the prostitutes in the brothel, but girls from two small aristocratic families in Maplewood City.
.
"You live a really cool life."
Li Xuan complained in annoyance, and the figure of Chen Mina could not help but emerge in his heart.
I don’t know what the beautiful and smart fiancée is doing. She shouldn’t be tinkering with the talisman engine at this time, right?
As for Liu Cui, since he accepted the task of regent, the girl seems to have realized something and has moved less these days.
This made Li Xuan feel a little disappointed. As expected, every gain in life comes with a loss! The festive atmosphere at home soon became intense. Seeing that Li Cheng and Li Hong took care of everything, Li Xuan simply walked out of the house alone and went to the street to experience it.
Let’s celebrate the holiday.
The streets are bustling with people coming and going, and various stalls are crowded with shopping crowds. It is the most solemn festival of the year. No matter how stingy people are on weekdays, they still have to add a few delicious dishes to their dinner.
Walking among the bustle of people, before Li Xuan could sigh at the prosperity of this world, he suddenly heard a commotion in the distance.
"Dang! Dang! Dang!"
The next moment, a deep and powerful bell suddenly rang, and the heavy "rumbling" sound swept through the entire city in an instant.
The market, which had been bustling before, suddenly fell silent. Everyone was frozen as if under a spell, making Li Xuan think that time had stopped! After a few seconds of deathly silence, someone made the first sound.
Exclaimed, the crowds in the street disappeared in an instant like an ebbing tide! In just a few minutes, Li Xuan could no longer see a single person around him, the streets became empty, and all the shops along the street closed their doors.
, the city looked like it had been ransacked by a tornado. The ground was full of smashed vegetable baskets, discarded shoes and extinguished octagonal lanterns! "What's going on?"
Li Xuan looked confused.
At this moment, a burst of rapid hoofbeats came from the end, but a soldier came galloping over. As the flying horse passed through the street, he shouted loudly: "Monsters are attacking the city! Level 1 combat readiness! All militiamen must assemble immediately."
, everyone, please don’t go out and stay at home!”
When the soldier passed by Li Xuan, he glanced at him in surprise and said, "Why are you still standing there? Why don't you go home and hide!"
"Monster attacking the city?"
Seeing the knight roaring away all the way, Li Xuan felt a chill in his heart.
Maplewood City is adjacent to a large savage forest, and many powerful monsters live in the depths of the forest. Most of the time, humans and monsters have a mutually exclusive relationship. Humans do not interfere with the lives of monsters.
Beasts rarely come outside the forest.
However, there are exceptions. Occasionally, some daring hunters will enter the depths of the forest to hunt monsters. Some successfully return home with loads of food, while others leave their corpses in the forest forever.
However, monsters rarely go outside the forest to actively seek trouble for humans, let alone go to human cities to cause trouble.
In the history of Maplewood City, there was only one record of monster siege, and it was two hundred years ago.
No one could have imagined that after two hundred years, the monster would choose to attack the city when the New Year comes. It really gave mankind a heavy New Year gift! Hearing the news of the monster attacking the city, Li Xuan secretly screamed, "Oh!"
He quickly returned home with a cold face.
Li Cheng and Li Hong had obviously heard the news and had already closed the door. Everyone in the family gathered together with hesitant expressions on their faces.
Li Xuan took out a few pills from his private plane and handed them to Li Cheng and Li Hong. He whispered how to use them, and then said: "I have to go out and take a look. You guys should hide at home and don't come out.
With these elixirs here, your safety should not be a problem."
Li Cheng and others knew that Li Xuan's abilities were extraordinary, and as long as they could protect themselves and not drag Li Xuan down, they would be helping, so they all nodded to reassure Li Xuan.
Li Xuan left the house, walked on the deserted streets, and soon came to the city defense station.
The headquarters of the city defense station was already in chaos. Before Li Xuan could walk in, he heard Ding Zhen's roar.
"What's going on? Can anyone tell me what's going on?
Why did the monster suddenly come over?"
Listening to his voice, it was obvious that he was furious.
The guard at the door saw Li Xuan and hurriedly raised his hands to salute. Li Xuan nodded and walked into the headquarters.
Among the headquarters, several big figures from Maplewood City are present.
Ding Zhen was furious, the prefects An Rulong and Salang stood aside with pale faces, and Lai Cang was looking at an open map in a daze.
Seeing Li Xuan walk in, they were all slightly startled.
Ding Zhen immediately said: "Li Xuan, you came just in time, I was just about to ask someone to protect you..." "I'm not a child, I don't need protection."
Li Xuan waved his hand and said, "I'm here to help you all defend the city.
How many monsters are there and where are they currently?"
Lai Cang raised his head and said with a gleam in his eyes: "According to the investigation, there are thousands of monsters coming out of the forest this time, and they are still about five kilometers away from Maple Forest City.
Most of the demonic beasts in the army are low-level demonic beasts, but there are also some high-level demonic beasts, and there are even a dozen blood essence beasts and armored beasts!"
Li Xuan's expression changed: "The blood essence beast and the armored beast!"
These two monsters are the most powerful monsters outside the winter forest. Even children are aware of their terrifying existence. As long as they hear their vicious names, even children who like to cry will shut up and stop crying.
I don’t dare to make a sound anymore! Adult blood essence beasts and armored beasts are born with powerful power comparable to formal monks. In addition, they also have terrible natural magic. Once they show their power, they are simply unstoppable! I heard that there are enough
There were more than a dozen blood essence beasts and armored beasts. Li Xuan's expression became serious: "It seems that the situation is very serious. How many soldiers and monks can Maplewood City mobilize?"
