"If we don't stop them, and they bring the disease in again, how will we explain that to the people of Liangcheng?"

The reason he hasn't opened the city gates for so long is precisely because of this.

But Qin Yue Zhao said, "Of course I've considered that! General Huo, drive out the armored vehicle, and I'll stand on the roof and talk to the people."

Huo Tingye's eyes lit up.

"That's a great idea! How come I didn't think of that? Your Highness, wait for me, I'll go right now!"

Driving armored vehicles out will not only intimidate the people and protect His Highness's safety, but also block the entire gate of Liangcheng. It's a triple win!

Before long, General Huo drove out of his armored vehicle from a nearby tent.

Qin Yue Zhao braced herself against the car body with one hand, pushed off with her right foot, and stood on the roof of the car.

Almost simultaneously, Xu Qingsheng and Chen Wan'er rode up in pursuit.

When Xu Qingsheng saw Qin Yuezhao standing on the armored vehicle, he was so excited that he almost fell off his horse.

"Miss Wan'er, that thing, could it be the armored vehicle that Her Highness the Princess mentioned?"

Chen Wan'er's eyes lit up with excitement.

"Yes, this is the armored vehicle that the gods bestowed upon Her Highness the princess."

"This vehicle can not only travel a thousand miles a day, but also fire millions of iron nails at the same time. It was this vehicle that made the Northern Barbarian army cry for their fathers and mothers."

Upon hearing this, Xu Qingsheng quickly jumped off his horse and took out paper and pen.

"Incredible! In all my travels through the nine kingdoms, I have seen many strange and wonderful things, but I have never seen such a powerful vehicle. This vehicle is a divine artifact, enough to shock the nine kingdoms!"

"I must paint this divine chariot and show it to the king, so that he may know the current fighting strength of Liangcheng..."

By the end of the day, he was so amazed by the wonders of Liangcheng that he questioned the meaning of life.

Chen Wan'er had no time to pay attention to him. She spurred her horse to catch up with the armored vehicle and stood behind Qin Yuezhao.

The city gates slowly opened, and nearly a hundred garrison soldiers were the first to leave the city, placing wooden palisades in front of the refugees.

But the refugees surged in like a flood, scrambling to get into the city.

Wang Erniu, the garrison commander, shouted at the top of his lungs:

"Step back! Everyone step back! His Highness is coming out to speak with you!"

However, the refugees, blinded by hunger, wouldn't listen to reason, and some even got into fights with the city's defenders.

Just as the scene was descending into chaos, a deafening roar suddenly came from inside the city gate.

"Boom! Rumble—"

The refugees were stunned into place by the sound, which sounded like the roar of a tiger and the howl of a lion.

Then we saw a huge creature roaring out of the city.

The object was over two meters tall, green all over, and painted with mottled patterns. From a distance, it looked like a giant toad.

But strangely, smoke could be seen coming from behind its rear end, and a low, howling roar could be heard coming from its throat.

The scene fell into a deathly silence.

It took a long time for people to recover from their shock.

"Oh my god! Monster! Everyone run!"

The refugees were so frightened by the scream that they turned and fled.

Seeing this, Qin Yuezhao quickly shouted, "My people, do not be afraid!"

Upon hearing this sound, all the refugees stopped in their tracks and looked at the top of the armored vehicle.

Amidst the grayish-white smoke, a slender, tall figure stood atop the colossal creature. She wore silver armor, a crimson cloak, and carried the dark gold Nine Dragon Sword.

Bathed in the firelight, it looked as if a god had descended to earth.

The refugees screamed when they saw this:

"Look, there's a person on that monster!"

"No, I've heard of her sword. It's the Nine Dragon Sword. She is Princess Liangcheng!"

"It really is Princess Da Gan! Princess Da Gan can conquer monsters! Everyone, kneel down before her! She's so capable, she'll definitely take us in and give us something to eat!"
