Chapter 2149 Sneak Attack
(4, 0);
In comparison, the outermost wall, which is more than ten feet high, seems like a child's play.
However, it is still possible to keep people out because it is a closed period and the several entrance and exit doors have been tightly closed, with few people around.
The only people who appeared here were some solemn-looking men in black. At first glance, one could tell that they were the guards specially responsible for garrisoning here. From the aura they exuded, it could be seen that they were all practitioners at the ancient immortal level, which was also a strong force.
Modo saw the scene in front of him and narrowed his eyes solemnly.
"It seems that the Many-Eyed Tribe really takes this holy sacrifice very seriously, otherwise they wouldn't have these black-clad guards guarding the outermost city...!"
"Black Guards? Mordor, do you recognize them?"
Yuan Cheng asked curiously upon seeing this.
"Yes." Mordor nodded in response, "The Black Guards of the Multi-Eyed Clan are somewhat similar to the palace guards of our clan, but their strength is relatively evenly matched, all of them are at the level of Ancient Immortals. They are usually stationed in the inner city and will not appear in such peripheral areas."
Yuan Cheng continued to ask, "Is the territory of the Multi-Eyed Tribe still divided into the outer city and the inner city?"
"That's right. The concentration of blood in the Multi-Eyed Clan is determined by the number of eyes. The more concentrated the blood, the nobler the status and the more noble one can live in the inner city. However, those with inferior blood can only live in the outer city for the rest of their lives."
At this point, Modo seemed to remember something, his expression changed slightly and he continued, "The Multi-Eyed Tribe must be holding a holy ceremony in the most central area of the city, and your friend will most likely appear there, and we need to pass through several walls to get there!"
Hearing this, Lin Yue and the others frowned. They could see it clearly from the height they were standing at.
The so-called closed tribe territory of the Many-Eyed Tribe is not just the blockade of the outer city gate, but also every gate on the inner city wall has been heavily guarded.
"This is a bit difficult...why don't we just break in!" Yuan Cheng said a little irritably.
"Don't be impulsive." Lin Yue shook his head.
Yuan Cheng's idea is definitely not feasible. Once their identities are exposed, it will be easy for the mysterious and powerful man from the Multi-Eyed Clan to guess their true intentions.
At that time, using Gu Fu as a hostage to threaten them would only make them afraid to act rashly.
At present, they are not clear about the defensive functions of the walls within the Many-Eyed Tribe. It is better for them to capture a few people from the Many-Eyed Tribe first and obtain some information from them to determine what to do next.
Lin Yue glanced around vigilantly and gave instructions to others.
"Go closer to the town first, and be careful to conceal your presence so as not to be discovered by those black-clad guards."
"clear!"
The three answered in unison, and descended to the ground together behind him.
There was a special kind of plant planted in large quantities outside the town. As it was not yet the harvest season, these plants grew vigorously and easily blocked the figures of Lin Yue and the others, providing them with a natural barrier.
The crowd slowly approached the town among the plants and soon came within a hundred feet. They could clearly feel the aura emitted by the black-clad guards.
Lin Yue pricked up his ears and heard the voices of several black-clad guards talking near the city wall.
"Old Zhao, when will this end? We have been assigned to this shabby place for half a month, and we haven't even seen a suspicious mosquito..."
"Shut up! This is a mission personally ordered by the Grand Elder. How dare you question it? If he hears you, you will lose your head!"
"Tsk... He always uses the title of Grand Elder to pressure us. Everyone knows that he is busy dealing with President Gu, so how can he have time to come to our place!"
"Hush! Do you want to kill us? We can't discuss this kind of clan affairs!"
"Keep your mouth shut and be alert. If anyone gets into the city, we'll all lose our heads!"
…
Although he only heard a few sentences of the conversation, Lin Yue gained a lot of information from it.
First of all, the person who imprisoned Gu Fu and prepared the holy sacrifice is most likely the supreme elder mentioned by the Black-Cloaked Guard. There seems to be no unanimous opinion on this matter within the Multi-Eyed Clan. While preparing the holy sacrifice, the supreme elder also wanted another person named General Gu to help.
Hearing this surname, Lin Yue couldn't help but have a guess in his mind.
Could it be that this leader Gu Zong is related to Gu Fu by blood?
Otherwise, why would they stop the Supreme Elder from performing the holy sacrifice?
However, these are just Lin Yue's guesses at the moment. The information he has is too little to support an accurate and effective speculation.
"Friend Qing." Lin Yue said softly.
"I am here."
Hearing Lin Yue's voice, Qing Bingying approached quietly, and the faint fragrance from her body penetrated into Lin Yue's nose.
"There are four black-clad guards near the wall in front of us. I will capture them all in a moment. You will then be required to control them and extract useful information from them."
"I'll do my best!" Qing Bingying nodded slightly and nodded solemnly.
Although these black-clad guards were weaker than her, the gap was not very large. Each of them also possessed the cultivation of ancient immortals. It was not an easy task to manipulate their thoughts and extract information from them at the same time. (5,0);
Next, Lin Yue released his divine sense to search in both directions. After finding no traces of other people hiding, he stepped into the void and approached the city wall.
At the foot of the city wall, the serious-looking middle-aged man who was the leader of the four black-clad guards suddenly seemed to have noticed something, his eyes froze and he looked around.
But in his sight, there was nothing unusual, not even the scent of an insect.
The black-clad guard wasn't joking when he said that he didn't see even a mosquito. In order to ensure the safety of the clan's land during the holy sacrifice, someone had smeared the body fluids of immortal-level ferocious beasts outside the city wall half a month ago. This way, ordinary monsters wouldn't dare to approach here, let alone weak creatures like insects.
"What's going on? I just felt a spatial fluctuation..."
The middle-aged man looked around with a puzzled look, but did not notice that a crack was slowly appearing in the space behind him.
"Boss, what's wrong with you?"
The black-clad guard who was previously called Lao Zhao heard the noise here and turned his head to look over here.
But the next moment, his eyes widened, his face turned pale and he was speechless.
I saw a hand stretched out from the crack in space, pinched the middle-aged man's neck, and dragged him into the void in an instant!
