Chapter 251 - Exaggeration

On the other hand, after the first wave of defeat, the rebel army was utterly defeated and retreated three hundred miles away.

The two leaders of the rebel army gathered together with dark expressions. Behind them was a large group of people who guarded silently.

They all thought that they had the most important information and were filled with confidence. This attack could be said to be the right time, place, and people. They thought that they had the advantage and could not fail no matter what.

However, they never expected that not only did they fail, but they also lost so ridiculously. They were simply defeated. Their brothers had suffered heavy losses, and their best heavy artillery had been destroyed by the other party. It was definitely impossible to repair it in a short period of time.

“General, who would have thought that such a powerful fellow would suddenly appear in the human race? From the feedback from the soldiers at the front line, the fireballs that had originally reached outside their city wall were completely controlled by this person and sent back. Such strength is completely beyond our expectations.”

The few demon generals who had escaped were still explaining their actions. Only one person came out to speak, and the others naturally followed.

“That’s right, General. We’ve never heard of such a thing. It’s really unexpected.”

They had suffered a defeat today and had returned in defeat. They naturally had to strictly reflect on such a major strength.

Moreover, Mie Tian was in a fit of anger and wanted to capture a few people to vent his anger. If they did not speak properly, he would kill all of them who could not speak later. It would be too late to complain then.

Therefore, these people who were leading the troops to war rushed forward to complain.

Mie Tie naturally knew these principles. He also knew that if not for the sudden appearance of such a figure in the human race, with the defense ability of that city, they would definitely not be able to withstand this attack.

However, he did not expect such a person to be hidden in the human race’s Rong City. Where did this person come from? Why had there never been any sources of information? Most importantly, this person’s strength had clearly reached the peak level. To be able to chase so many cannons back with a flip of his hand, how powerful was he?

At the very least, in the eyes of Mie Tian, this fellow in front of him could be said to be an extremely powerful enemy. Although their strength had been strengthened, they were only supported by their Great Lord to the second-grade Formation Arrangement Realm. This was something he had never dared to think about in the past. Since he had taken advantage of the Great Lord and soared overnight, he naturally had to do things well for him.

However, the humans opposite them suddenly had such a powerful fellow. It really made it difficult for them to move.

Mie Tian was very hesitant. He knew the other party’s methods. If they stopped moving, he knew what would happen to them. It was really a huge problem.

If he had known earlier, he would not have accepted this matter so easily.

The reason why he looked so bitter was not because his subordinates were incompetent, but more because he was worried about the current situation. He still had to think of a way.

The group of people spoke at once, but they could not get to the point. Seeing that their boss was still frowning and his face was dark, they were all terrified. They looked at each other. They did not know who would be the unlucky one who was chosen by their boss and turned into ashes.

Just as they were all thinking, a black-robed man suddenly appeared at the periphery.

No one else seemed to have noticed the black-robed man’s appearance. Only Mie Tian’s gaze was fixed on the black-robed man, unable to move away.

“All of you can leave first!”

Mie Tian’s sudden order stunned everyone present.

Boss had never spoken like this in the past. Why was he so polite today? Could it be that Boss was really so angry that he even wanted to speak to them in such a tone? They did not even dare to think about it.

Just as they were hesitating, Mie Tian suddenly widened his eyes and swept his gaze around. He roared, “I told you to scram. Didn’t you hear me? Why are you still standing here?!”

After being scolded like this, they finally felt relieved. They thought that the general was probably in a daze just now and did not speak properly. Now, this attitude was in line with the general’s personal temperament.

“General, calm down. We’ll get lost now!”

They ran out obediently. Without the general’s orders, they really did not dare to escape.

After everyone left, only Mie Tian and the black-robed man were left in the empty tent.

They had retreated from here, but they did not seem to notice the existence of the black-robed man. It was really strange.

The black-robed man slowly turned around. The front of his face was completely covered by the drooping hood. His face seemed to be hiding in a dark color, and it was impossible to see what he looked like.

However, Mie Tian knew this man very well.

“My lord, there’s a reason for today. Let me explain it to you.”

Mie Tian anxiously walked up to the black-robed man and wanted to escape punishment. He had originally agreed with this lord that he would definitely be able to produce some results today. However, he did not expect to encounter such resistance. Now that his progress was obstructed, it felt extremely difficult to take down Rong City again.

As long as that guy didn’t leave, they wouldn’t have any chance to take down Rong City no matter what. If this lord used this to pressure them now, he wouldn’t be able to do anything.

However, Black Robe said to him very understandingly, “It’s fine. I know your difficulties.”

Mie Tian was already prepared to continue quibbling. How could he get rid of this crime? At the very least, he could not bear the responsibility. If he died for no reason, he would really be wronged.

Mie Tian looked up at Black Robe in front of him. Black Robe was suddenly so considerate that he was at a loss.

“Lord Black Robe, what do you mean?”

Black Robe continued, “There’s a powerful person in the human race, but that’s all. This person happened to pass by here and arrived in Rong City just as you were attacking. It can be said to be a coincidence.”

“There’s actually such a thing? Wouldn’t we succeed if we delayed a few more days?”

“That’s hard to say. However, there’s another opportunity now. He still has to be busy with the other side. You still have a chance. As long as you can occupy Rong City, it won’t be easy for this person to defend Rong City.”

“You’re right!” Mie Tian hurriedly replied, “Rong City is occupied by the remnants of the previous dynasty of the human race. The old people left behind from the previous era and the information and memories they learned are all in their hands. As long as we take down that so-called Saintess of the human race, everything about the human race will be in my hands.”

As Mie Tian, he laughed loudly. As long as he controlled everything about the human race, he would be the new Holy Master of the human race.

How beautiful was that future?

When Mie Tian thought of this, he could not help but laugh. His gaze on Black Robe became sharp.

Black Robe snorted coldly and looked at him disdainfully. “You’re quite happy early.”

When Mie Tian heard that his lord seemed to be a little unhappy, he hurriedly said, “Lord Black Robe, don’t blame me. If I have power, I will definitely follow your lead. Don’t worry, my lord!”

Black Robe nodded slightly and said proudly, “That’s right. I didn’t nurture you in vain.”

“I will always remember your nurturing!”

As a person at the peak of the Spirit Transformation realm, he would probably never have the chance to come into contact with the Formation Arrangement realm again in his life. However, he was pulled up by him and reached the second-grade Formation Arrangement realm. Moreover, he gave him such a powerful weapon and strengthened the entire army.

Although his subordinates had become half-human and half-beast, with their tempers becoming much more irritable than before, although they were very easily angry and ruthless,

However, none of this was important. As long as he could grasp the direction of the human race and become the supreme Holy Master, he would be a supreme being in the Catacombs from now on. This was not something that he, the leader of the rebel army, had dared to dream about.

Mie Tian stood in front of Black Robe with lowered brows. Black Robe said to him indifferently, “There’s a very good opportunity now, but I wonder if you can seize it.”

“Sir, please speak. Although I lost this time, it’s all because I fell into his trap this time. As long as this kid is not in the city, it will be easy to take down Rong City.”

Even though a lot of their powerful offensive artillery had been destroyed, now was not the time to cry about being poor. He had to give Lord Black Robe some hope. Otherwise, he would not be able to keep his status.

Black Robe looked at him in satisfaction and said, “Do you know what I admire most about you?”

“I don’t know.”

“I admire your guts the most. You clearly have nothing on you, yet you still dare to bite others.”

“Thank you for your praise!”

“Three days from now, Sea City will be facing chaos. At that time, Li Yuanqing will have no choice but to leave. I believe he will leave for three days. I’m afraid it will take at least three days for him to come back. Can you do it in these three days?”

“I understand. I will definitely take down Rong City within three days!” Mie Tian knelt on the ground. “Kill all the humans inside and establish a new human race!”

In Rong City, three hundred miles away from the valley, the repair of the fortifications was underway.

Everyone was very cautious and completed the work in front of them very quickly. No one knew when the next wave of rebel army attacks would arrive. Now, they had to seize this opportunity to establish a new defense.

“All of you, hurry up. You can’t be lazy at a time like this. Anyone who dares to be lazy will die if the enemy comes back!”

The people below were busy working, and the supervisor was coordinating with everyone above.

At this moment, Ye Qiluo happened to pass by. She led a group of generals and marshals and stopped here to watch the people below.

“General Zhao, at this rate, when will we be able to build a new defense system and repair the protective array below?”

“City Lord, we’ve already mobilized all the outstanding array masters to repair the underground main disc. However, the damage below is too huge. It will take at least two days to completely repair it. Moreover, we’ll build an even larger and faster protective array on this foundation!”

“Good. What about these walls? I think they’re almost done.”

“City Lord, these city walls are being repaired very quickly. I believe it will be completely repaired in less than half a day. This time, we used the ores gathered from the Black Stone Mine. They are several times stronger than before. I believe we will definitely have a better defense against such an attack.”

Ye Qiluo nodded slightly and looked at the mottled stones below. These were all very precious ores. She had really spent a lot of money on them.

Initially, they thought that everything was calm outside and that it was no longer a threat to them. Therefore, they did not expect to spend so much effort on defense.

However, after this unexpected situation, they finally realized that no matter when, only by saving their lives could they have the possibility of constantly developing.

This attack had only rung a bell for them. If not for Li Yuanqing’s timely arrival, none of them would have survived.

“General Zhao, no matter what, you have to use the highest level of methods to strengthen our defense. I don’t want to face such a desperate situation again. If the millions of humans in Rong City are all destroyed in my hands, I don’t know how I’ll be able to face my ancestors in the netherworld.”

“City Lord, don’t worry. We’ve gathered all the factions and departments this time. We must use our greatest effort to build an absolute defense. At that time, even the huge attack yesterday could be resisted for more than three days!”

Ye Qiluo was very satisfied with General Zhao’s promise.

This city wall was indeed a little too ancient. In the past, they had not had the time to strengthen it. This time, they could take this opportunity to strengthen the city wall and their defense. If they encountered such a thing in the future, they would have more experience.

“Then I’ll have to trouble General Zhao and everyone else. The rise and fall of our human race is in your hands!”

“City Lord, you flatter me. This is what we generals should do!”
