Chapter 813: New Master
A few hours later, Li Yang rubbed his sore eyes and sighed:
"The abnormal events recorded in these files do point to those monsters."
"But the strange thing is that they don't seem to have a fixed haunt."
Zhang Hui nodded in agreement:
"Yeah...and their behavior patterns are very inconsistent."
"Some seem to just roam around, while others specifically attack humans."
Yunyouzi thought for a moment and said:
"This may mean that it is not just the creatures that come to this world, but also the people who control them."
Li Yang held his chin:
"In other words, there might be someone behind the scenes directing these monsters?"
Yunyouzi nodded:
"It's very possible..."
"The frog dog we met in Huanwu Village obviously has a certain amount of intelligence."
"But judging from these files, other monsters do not show this trait."
Zhang Hui thoughtfully said:
"If that's the case, then we have to be careful."
"Since the opponent can control these monsters, he must also have a certain level of strength."
"What kind of threats did the Great Xia Dynasty face a thousand years ago..."
While the three were discussing, there was a sudden noise outside.
Immediately afterwards, a soldier ran in in a panic.
"Your Excellency! A large number of monsters have appeared outside the city and are heading towards the city!"
Zhou Mu was shocked when he heard this:
"What? Send my order quickly, put the whole city under martial law and close the city gates!"
The three Yun Youzi looked at each other, and Yun Youzi said in a deep voice:
"It seems that the other party can no longer hold back... In this case, I will leave the city to check the situation."
Zhou Mu said quickly:
"Be careful, you three! I will mobilize my troops and provide support later."
The three of them nodded in agreement, and then quickly left the State Shepherd's Mansion and rushed towards the city gate.
When they rushed to the city wall, the sight before them was shocking.
I saw darkness outside the city, and all kinds of strange creatures were rushing towards the city wall.
Some were flying in the air, while others were crawling on the ground. The scene was extremely horrifying.
It is no exaggeration to call this situation a "tide of beasts".
"so much?!"
Zhang Hui exclaimed.
Li Yang frowned slightly:
"It seems that the opponent wants to capture this place in one fell swoop..."
"Is this place special?"
Yun Youzi calmly analyzed:
"Don't panic."
"Although there are many in number, their strength varies."
"We can solve the problem once we find out who's commanding them."
At this moment, a rumble suddenly came from under the city wall.
The three of them looked down and saw a huge beetle-like creature hitting the city gate.
"This strength... If this continues, the city gate will soon be breached!"
Zhang Hui looked anxious.
Yunyouzi turned his head and said in a deep voice:
"Little friend Li Yang, you are responsible for guarding the city gate."
"Zhang Hui, you go and command the soldiers to resist the enemies in the air."
"Pindao, let's go and see if we can find out the mastermind behind this."
The two nodded in agreement and went their separate ways.
Li Yang came to the city gate, waved his hands, and countless vines instantly grew on the ground, wrapping around the giant beetle.
At the same time, he controlled dense peashooters to grow from the cracks in the bricks around the city wall, forming a green barrage to resist the continuous influx of monsters.
Zhang Hui stood at the highest point of the city wall, constantly chanting incantations and waving his sword to guide.
In an instant, there was lightning and thunder in the sky, and countless bolts of lightning struck at the flying monsters.
Yun Youzi, on the other hand, closed his eyes and concentrated, using the power of the Golden Crow to sense the energy fluctuations around him.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and looked towards a hill outside the city.
"Found you."
Yun Youzi whispered, then jumped up and flew in that direction.
The soldiers on the city wall were all amazed when they saw this scene.
Someone exclaimed:
"He is really a man of God! This Taoist priest can actually fly out of thin air!"
Yunyouzi soon arrived at the small hill.
Sure enough, he saw a guy in black robes here.
The man was making secrets with his hands, seeming to be controlling the monsters.
"Who are you? Why do you want to attack the city?"
Yunyouzi asked coldly.
The man in black robe turned around, revealing a pale face.
He smiled darkly:
"Who did I think it was? It turned out to be a fellow Taoist. Since you can find this place, you must not be a mortal."
Yun Youzi said in a deep voice:
"Answer Pindao's question."
The man in black robe didn't take it seriously and continued:
"It doesn't matter who I am..."
"What's important is that the world is about to change dramatically."
"I am merely paving the way for my master."
Yunyouzi snorted coldly:
"Arrogant! No matter who your master is, you can't succeed today!"
After saying that, Yun Youzi made a seal with his hands, and a golden light shot out from his palms, heading straight for the man in black robe.
Not to be outdone, the man in black robe also faced him with a stream of black energy.
The two energies collided in the air, causing a deafening explosion.
At the same time, the battle on the city wall also entered a fierce stage.
Although Li Yang tried his best, the soul jade's carrying capacity was ultimately limited, and cracks began to appear in his plant barrier.
Zhang Hui's side was already a little overwhelmed.
He fought fiercely with the flying monsters in the sky, but his mana was consumed a lot and his face began to turn pale.
At this critical moment, a loud horn sound suddenly sounded.
"Reinforcements have arrived!"
Some soldiers shouted happily.
I saw dust flying in the distance, and a cavalry force was rushing towards them at an extremely fast speed.
The leader was none other than Zhou Mu himself.
"Kill! Leave no one behind!"
Zhou Mu raised his sword high and led the cavalry into the monster group.
With the addition of reinforcements, the situation in the battle quickly reversed.
Although those monsters were ferocious, they were still defeated steadily under organized attacks.
On the hill, the battle between Yun Youzi and the man in black robe also entered a critical moment.
The two of them went back and forth, fighting for countless rounds, and both of them were already showing signs of fatigue.
At this moment, the man in black robe suddenly laughed ferociously:
"Do you think this will stop us? Naive!"
After saying that, he suddenly took out a black bead and threw it on the ground.
"not good!"
Yun Youzi's expression changed drastically, and it was too late to stop him.
The moment the bead shattered, a huge space crack suddenly appeared.
The man in black robe laughed and jumped into the crack:
"See you later, fellow Taoist! We will see you again!"
Yun Youzi wanted to pursue him, but the crack was fleeting and he could only watch the man in black robe disappear.
As the men in black robes left, the monsters attacking the city suddenly lost control and began to flee in all directions.
Some burrowed into the ground, and some flew far away and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
When Yun Youzi returned to the city, Li Yang and Zhang Hui were already waiting for him.
"How's it going? Did you catch that guy?"
Zhang Hui asked eagerly.
Yunyouzi shook his head:
"Let him run away..."
"However, Pindao finally got some important information."
