Chapter 367: Sweeping the Wilderness
Surrounding Lucheng, there appeared a series of large pits like chasms.
The earth turned up, revealing the darker color underneath.
Some places have obviously collapsed deeper, and neat passages can be vaguely seen.
It should be an authentic place.
Sure enough, now I don’t have to worry about where the secret passage is.
No matter where it leads, it is now blocked.
What was even more shocking was that half of the towering city wall had collapsed at this time.
The remaining half now had obvious cracks and was crumbling.
Even Xie Jingci was shocked by the scene before him.
This was the first time he used so many at once.
Fortunately, he calculated the distance carefully and did not get too close to the city wall. He just planted mines far away, and shattered the city wall in the process.
If it was placed next to the city wall, given the height of the wall, hundreds of people would probably die inside.
Xuan Qi was very excited when he saw this: "That's great! The people inside probably won't be able to hold on for even a day."
It turned out to be something that the lady took out.
The city wall that was as solid as a rock a second ago was reduced to ruins in an instant.
"uncertain."
Xie Jingci looked calmly at the smoke and dust that had not yet dispersed in the wind: "Don't forget, there are still three thousand beasts in the Colosseum, and those that can enter the Colosseum are all quite large.
If necessary, it can help the people of a city survive for two more days. If the slaves are allowed to starve, they can survive for even longer."
Xuan Qi fell silent.
He actually overlooked this point.
When the city existed, animal fighting was a way to make money.
In times of crisis, those are the food that fills your stomach.
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound in the distance.
The door covered with heavy curtains was opened.
More than a dozen people walked out of the Colosseum gate.
They all had thick scarves wrapped around their heads, and they wished they could cover their faces as well to block the wind and sand from blowing on the shop.
Xie Jingci curled his lips: "It actually came out, even faster than I thought."
Xuan Qi silently glanced at the horrific city wall.
This kind of method has come out, who wouldn't be anxious?
"You are all from Zizai Peak, right?"
The leader's expression was a little distorted, but he still forced a somewhat deformed smile: "Everyone in Zizai City, if you have something to say, we can talk it out. Why bother to fight directly?"
Looking at those people standing dozens of meters away from the city wall, not daring to get any closer, Xuan Qi suddenly remembered something Lu Wanyin had said.
"With these things, no matter how bad the other person's temper is, they will have to hold back their temper and talk to you calmly."
Xie Jingci sat upright on Han Dong's back, a smile on his lips, but his eyes were extremely cold: "Oh, no one from Lucheng has come forward in two days. I thought there was no need to talk anymore."
The expressions of those dozen people were very interesting.
A cup of tea ago, they did think so.
But how did these people do it?
The city wall that has stood in the wilderness for many years is like a piece of tofu, vulnerable to any attack.
"Presumably, this is the legendary Xie Jingci of Zizai Peak."
The leader had already seen Xie Jingci's portrait.
If he had not recognized their identities, Lu Cheng would have sent people to take action as soon as Xie Jingci and his men appeared.
Zizai Peak is unfathomable, and they don't want to confront Zizai Peak until they know its details.
The leader looked at Xie Jingci with a more serious look in his eyes. "We all know that Zizai Peak has just entered the wilderness and it is time to expand its influence. I wonder if this sir is interested in cooperating?"
Xie Jingci had the reins wrapped around his hands, his eyelids slightly drooped as he looked indifferently at the ruins on the ground: "If it were three months ago, I might have sat down and had a good talk with you, but now..."
He smiled and glanced at the dozen people with disdain: "What qualifications do you have to negotiate with me?"
Xie Jingci was already polite enough.
Even three months ago, when Zizai Peak was most in need of people, he would not have won over these people.
The Colosseum is not all about animal fighting.
When fighting against wild beasts, there are always people who are forced to fight against them.
Sin and madness gather in the Killing City. If you throw a brick, nine out of ten people will turn out to be evil.
Originally, all he wanted to keep were the nearly ten thousand slaves.
"you!"
The leader's face darkened. "Although Zizai Peak is renowned, we are only new here. The waters of the wilderness are deep. Even if you have some skills, you should consider your own escape route."
Zizai Peak has been destroying the balance of the wilderness for so many years.
If the Killing City is disturbed again, the remaining forces in the wilderness will completely unite.
Just relying on the Free Peak, you want to fight against the entire wilderness
How is it possible?
"There's no need for you to worry about our retreat."
Xie Jingci smiled slightly: "It's everyone's way out, you have to think carefully, do you want to come out by yourself, or do we fight our way in?
It's just a city. I can build a new city in three months at Zizai Peak, so building another one will only take a little more effort."
As soon as Xie Jingci said this, the people in Shailu City had an illusion.
They have such powerful means, but they don't just flatten it.
Just to avoid the trouble of rebuilding Lucheng.
And they would not think of the nearly ten thousand slaves.
After all, barbarians never take the lives of the weak seriously.
Especially the killing city, which fully embodies the respect for the strong.
Xie Jingci looked down at those people and said, "You don't seem to have the qualifications to negotiate terms. Go on your own. I'll give you an incense stick of time to escape.
Or, I will simply raze this place to the ground, melt your flesh and blood into the soil, and rebuild the Slaughter City."
As he spoke, Xie Jingci took something like an iron bucket from the horse's back.
Just a little fiddling.
A faint smell of gunpowder filled the air.
boom!
Another loud bang.
A corner of the city wall that had not yet collapsed was razed to the ground.
This divine weapon that was like a natural disaster was unexpectedly not like the last one.
It doesn't take any time to prepare.
The people who were watching in the city of slaughter finally died completely with their worries.
Xuan Qi pulled out an hourglass from somewhere and said, "From now on, for one stick of incense, no one will attack you."
The hourglass board was placed right in front of everyone.
The soldiers following Xie Jingci put down their weapons and looked quietly at the people in front of them.
The leader looked at the corner of the wall that was still smoking with uncertainty: "I really won't do anything. I guarantee it on the reputation of Zizai Peak."
Xie Jingci leaned back lazily: "A lot of time has passed."
The leader gritted his teeth and said, "Take the people and go."
That kind of earth-shattering power is not something that a flesh and blood body can resist.
The people inside quickly packed up their things and rushed out from the pile of rubble.
Just looking from the outside, it's hard to imagine that so many people can hide inside.
