Outside the towering city walls, snow was falling heavily.
A group of ragged humans frantically climbed the city wall.
This scene is similar to a zombie outbreak in Resident Evil.
However, these people are not zombies, but flesh-and-blood human beings!
In fact, many people come to climb the city wall every day.
There is a warning line above the city wall.
As long as the warning line is not crossed, the alarm will generally not be triggered.
However, if they cross the warning line, the sentry will immediately sound the alarm once he notices it.
For example, just now, the alarm bells rang.
It should be noted that this city wall is over a thousand meters high, and it is very difficult for ordinary people to climb up. In the past hundred years, the number of times the city of Bingdong has been struck has been very limited.
But today, it rang!
Although the sentries had not heard the bell for a long time, they moved very quickly, showing that they were well-trained. In no time, they rushed up the city wall, spears and shields in hand, ready for battle. At the very back, there were archers, ready to shoot at any time.
"What's going on? These refugees have got some nerve, daring to attack the city!"
A centurion arrived at the city wall, gazing at the mountain of people below. A look of confusion crossed his face.
"Someone must be driving them away!"
Just then, a figure appeared beside him like a gust of wind.
The centurion was taken aback for a moment, then turned around and saw a handsome young man he didn't recognize. He couldn't help but frown. "Young man, you've just arrived, haven't you? Which family are you from?"
In his opinion, this young man had fair skin and delicate features, and must be a member of a prominent family in the city.
Because if you're constantly exposed to the wind and sun, your skin certainly won't be this good; it would probably be rough like burlap from the biting cold wind.
Lin Yu smiled and said, "I'm just a rogue cultivator. I heard the alarm bell and came up to check it out!"
"A rogue, a wandering cultivator?"
The centurion was dumbfounded; this term had never existed in Bingdong City.
Bingdong City is only so big, and its resources are limited, all of which are controlled by the five major families. How could it possibly tolerate any independent cultivators?
Baihu shook his head. "Kid, I don't care where you're from. It's too dangerous here. You'd better stop being curious and hurry down to find a place to stay!"
If this kid really is the young master of some powerful family, he can't afford to take responsibility if something happens.
Whoosh!
However, no sooner had he finished speaking than a piercing sound rang out.
Baihu subconsciously turned his head to look and saw a small dot growing larger in front of him!
It was an arrow, about to pierce his brow.
brush!
A large hand firmly grasped it.
Glug!
Baihu snapped out of his daze, swallowed hard, and looked at Lin Yu with gratitude. "Thank you, thank you!"
If it weren't for Lin Yu, that arrow would have almost killed him!
What was he about to say? Whoosh!
The piercing sound of something cutting through the air never ceased.
"Enemy attack! Alert!!"
Baihu immediately shouted loudly.
roar!
Everyone raised their shields together, lifting the enormous shields above their heads.
Ding ding dong!
A dense rain of arrows shot in from afar, so dense that their shields were riddled with holes in no time.
"ah--"
"Help!"
"Who will save us poor people!"
Below the city wall, the humans who attempted to climb were not so lucky; they became human shields, covered by a hail of arrows.
Then they fell downwards one after another.
Lin Yu's expression changed, and he was about to jump down when he was stopped by the centurion beside him.
"Young man, are you crazy? Are you going down there to die?!"
Since this young man had just saved his life, he couldn't bear to watch him seek death.
Lin Yu took a deep breath and said, "They are all living, breathing people. How can we just stand by and watch them die!"
Baihu shook his head. "They're not from China, why do you care about them? People from these countries fight every day, and death is common. Look, at least tens of thousands of soldiers are coming from afar, and they're all heavily armored. They're from the slave kingdom. Among these refugees, there must be people they're hunting down. Once this wave of refugees is all dead, they'll stop. There's no need to care about them at all!"
Lin Yu saw indifference, ruthlessness, and apathy in the centurion's eyes.
It is clear that the centurion did not treat these refugees as human beings.
But Lin Yu couldn't do it.
In the Chinese world, whether in the West or the East, such a heinous massacre would be condemned by the entire world.
Moreover, he is the Human Emperor!
All human beings are his subjects.
Now that the calamity is imminent and humanity will face annihilation, all human races in all nations should unite instead of fighting amongst themselves!
Lin Yu broke free from the centurion and resolutely jumped off the thousand-meter-high city wall.
Whoosh whoosh!
All I could hear was the whistling wind and the sound of arrows piercing the air.
Wow!
Lin Yu instantly released an invisible field, like a huge barrier, blocking the refugees' way.
The dense rain of arrows stopped abruptly after hitting the barrier.
Bang!
Finally, Lin Yu fell from a height of 1,000 meters.
The glacier beneath his feet gave him a very profound feeling.
To his surprise, upon arriving outside the city, he felt an invisible law suppressing him, and his cultivation level returned to the Profound Realm.
Actually, I already had this feeling in Bingdong City, but it became more obvious when I came outside the city.
However, he didn't panic, because this was a good thing for him.
Because if he remained in the realm of immortality, he would not be able to control his madness, but after arriving in Bingdong City, he would not have such worries.
In this way, as long as he can successfully reach the Realm of Immortality, he should be able to completely resolve his madness.
As he was pondering this, a large number of refugees gathered around him.
"Greetings, Your Excellency!"
"We beg the great people of the Chinese world to save us!"
"Our kingdom has been destroyed by the slave kingdom, and the Dragon Mother wants to exterminate us! Please, China, take us in!"
The displaced people shouted in unison.
Lin Yu's actions just now truly shocked them. They knew that he was a top expert in the Chinese world and would definitely be able to save them.
Da da da!
Lin Yu hadn't spoken yet.
The heavy cavalry had already arrived in the distance, urging their horses on.
They, along with their horses, were covered in cold, dark blue armor from head to toe.
A strong killing intent emanated from them.
Among them, a particularly tall horse emerged from the crowd, its rider wielding a nine-foot-long sword as he galloped back and forth, seemingly sizing up Lin Yu.
Lin Yu slowly stepped forward and said calmly, "Ahead lies China, where gods are forbidden!"
This is a phrase from the official language he learned in Bingdong City.
Once this statement is made public, everyone will know that Bingdong City is Chinese territory and entry is prohibited.
This is a warning!
It's usually sentries who shout this to refugees, but Lin Yu just learned it and put it to use.
