At the gate of Hebron, armed men wrapped in heavy cloaks patrolled back and forth, yawning all the time.
"We're almost there, my Lords."
One of the cavalrymen spoke tremblingly, his voice extremely nervous.
"The North Gate is in front of us. It's the only way to enter the city."
Nan Tong glanced in the direction he mentioned, then spoke lightly.
"Okay, relax."
"Don't be so trembling when you speak. If anyone notices something's wrong, you know the consequences."
"Complete your mission, and you'll just have to continue living in the city."
"Otherwise, I'll just have to kill all of you."
"Do you understand?"
The cavalryman nodded vigorously. Although he had no idea why these four powerful men wanted to sneak in secretly, he did not dare to disobey them at all.
He knew very well that the old man who had just spoken was not joking, and he could really kill all the people in the city by himself.
"Sir...my lord."
"Your magic level... is above the Ultimate Magician, right?"
"Your...your magic is too powerful, little man..."
As he was speaking, Nan Tong just interrupted him harshly.
"Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask."
"This is for your own good."
As the distance shortened, the outline of the city gate became clearer.
It was a stone archway about ten meters high, with a watchtower on each side that had not yet been built.
It should have been a magnificent building, but now it looks a bit dilapidated.
Of course, when the Holy Egyptian Alliance occupied this place earlier, they could only do their best to repair it in a short period of time. It is normal that many places have not been repaired properly.
You know, when the huge demon appeared in the city of Hebron, the ancient city was almost completely destroyed.
However, these armed men have no idea about these things.
There were six guards standing at the city gate, leaning lazily on their spears, occasionally checking passers-by, but mostly just going through the motions.
There were not many people entering and leaving the city at this time. Most of them were haggard-looking civilians, carrying simple luggage and passing by hurriedly with their heads down.
Of course, there were also a few who were dressed gorgeously and had smiles on their faces.
When they entered and exited, they would hand something to the soldiers at the door, which seemed to be a proof of their "friendly" relationship with the armed men.
It's like they have provided them with something, or are still useful to the armed men, so they will not be robbed by the other side and can move freely in and out of the city of Hebron.
However, when they entered and exited, they kept their heads down and did not dare to make any eye contact with those lazy armed men, as if they were afraid that the other party would eat them in the next second.
"Sir, it's best if you don't speak. Let us negotiate."
Lin Ke and others remained silent, and that was their response.
"stop!"
When Lin Ke and his group approached the city gate, a burly guard raised his hand to stop them.
He looked at the four men in black robes, just staring at them with one eye wide open and one eye narrowed.
This outfit looks a bit weird, at least it is not the style of Hebron.
However, the two cavalrymen at the front were dressed as armed men, which prevented the burly guard from pointing his spear at Lin Ke and others first.
"Who are they? What are they doing here?"
The burly guard asked the two cavalrymen.
The two cavalrymen immediately stood up straight, changing their previous frightened expressions to an arrogant attitude.
"This sir is the weapon forger we invited."
"You should know that Hebron needs sophisticated weapons right now."
The leading cavalryman spoke loudly, his voice changed from the previous depressed tone to become loud and confident.
"They have come here specifically to inspect and improve the weapons and equipment in the city. We have been ordered to escort them into the city."
The guard looked Lin Ke and his group up and down, his gaze lingering on the succubus for a few seconds.
Those eyes were so beautiful that the guard couldn't help swallowing.
Combined with the cavalry's words, he can now confirm that the other party is indeed a person of status.
After all, it is impossible for ordinary people to have eyes like that.
Then, the burly guard turned his gaze to the two cavalrymen: "I have indeed heard of such a thing."
Having said that, he looked towards the place behind the cavalry in confusion.
There is a wilderness there.
"Strange, weren't there a lot of people when you set out?"
"Why are you two the only ones back?"
The cavalry shook his head.
"Stop talking. We encountered... the lagging troops of the Holy Egyptian Alliance on the way."
"Some of them can even perform magic. It's a miracle that we can return with these four...forge masters."
When the burly guard heard this, he just looked at the two cavalrymen in shock.
"Damn it, you actually met those Egyptians?"
"They're not chasing us, are they? I heard those guys are terrifying... If they attack us, we'll probably have to leave here immediately."
When the succubus heard this, she just slightly curved her eyes and glanced at Lin Ke, and Lin Ke just blinked slightly in response.
"No, we escaped immediately. It's just that their magic was too powerful."
As the cavalryman spoke, he acted terrified, as if he was recalling some horrible scene.
