Chapter 247 Mermaid's Melody 17
"Lord of Haicheng, I didn't expect you to not escape?"
The bald man in the lead looked at the people on the city wall and couldn't help but say sarcastically.
"As the lord of a city, how can I evacuate early?"
"Damn demon cultivators, I advise you to leave as soon as possible. My Haicheng is not a place you can mess with."
Beads of sweat had already formed on the city lord's forehead, but he still held his back straight and showed no sign of fear.
"Your Haicheng has neither powerful warriors nor powerful formations guarding it. How dare you say that Haicheng should not be provoked?"
"Hahaha……"
"Brothers, this little Lord of the Sea City actually dares to act so arrogantly towards us. What do you think we should do?"
The bald man looked at the Lord of Haicheng with disdain in his eyes.
He waved his hand and turned to look at his younger brother.
It was as if they could raze Haicheng to the ground in an instant with just one word from them.
"Kill him, kill him, kill him, kill him..."
The demon army raised their weapons high and roared loudly.
The sound merged into waves and attacked the city.
The people who were afraid to go out were so frightened that they trembled and hid in their homes in places they thought were safe.
"Kids, get under the bed."
"Boss, hide our parents in the closet. We'll block the door and don't let any bad guys in!"
The woman from one of the families was directing her husband to hide his family members one by one.
Next door to them, the situation was almost the same.
"Wife, take the children and hide in the cellar. No matter what noise you hear, don't come out."
"I'll go hide my parents and the others, and I'll also find a place to hide."
"If you can't hear my voice, don't come out. And don't believe any nonsense from strangers. Remember?"
The man's voice was trembling, but he still warned his wife and children with a stern look.
"I understand. Don't worry, Master. I will cover the children's mouths with cloth and prevent them from making any sound."
The woman looked at the anxious man and finally had to close the entrance to the cellar from the inside.
After entering the cellar, she gave each child food and water, and a piece of cloth.
"If you're scared, put the cloth in your mouth and don't bite yourself!"
The woman had never experienced an invasion by demon cultivators, but she had heard from storytellers about cities that had been completely decimated.
The demonic cultivators were so terrifying that ordinary people like them couldn't resist them.
Now I can only pray in my heart, hoping that the city lord can hold on.
There were many situations like this in the city, and most people were looking for places to hide.
But the place where they were hiding could not withstand being searched and they could not escape the eyes of the demons at all.
On the city wall, in addition to the people from the City Lord's Mansion, there are also some mercenaries and practitioners.
They also looked at the demon army under the city, and their faces became tense.
"That's too much. We're short-handed. If a fight breaks out, ten of them will attack one of us. How can we possibly be their opponent?"
Brother Wang was a little anxious and kept looking at Lin Wanwan, urging her to evacuate quickly.
"Look again!"
Lin Wanwan did not leave immediately. She looked at the scenery below the city and had another idea in her mind.
Since ancient times, although humans have lived by the sea, they have not interacted with marine communities.
For example, in this sea city, there are clearly several sea creatures living nearby, but there has never been any communication between them and humans.
If humans hunt sea creatures, they will sell them to auction houses.
If humans are caught by sea creatures, they will either be used as food or killed directly.
It is precisely because of this hostile relationship that the relationship between humans and demons has come to a complete stalemate.
Lin Wanwan wanted to try to break this deadlock, at least to make the humans in Haicheng less disgusted with the sea people.
"With just these few people, you still want to stop us?"
"Brothers, are you ready? If so, we will attack the city immediately."
"It's just a small sea city, it's not worth wasting our time."
As the bald man finished speaking, the demon cultivators all rushed towards the city gate.
The city lord on the city wall has already waved his hand and called on everyone to start attacking.
However, their attacks had little effect on the huge group of demon cultivators.
The shouts and cries of killing resounded throughout Haicheng, filling the hearts of the people hiding in the city with fear.
Except for the wives, children and the elderly who were hiding, the strong laborers stood in the yard with weapons in hand.
His back was pressed tightly against the gate, but his eyes were looking towards the city gate.
Some evil cultivators with high cultivation levels have already flown into the air on their magic weapons.
As the Hundred Ghosts Banner waved, the sky was instantly covered by dark clouds.
The people who were still guarding the door were so frightened when they saw the hellish Asura scene in the sky that their legs were shaking.
But even so, they still stood firmly at the gate of the courtyard.
Even though he was scared to death, he still used his frail body to hold up the wooden door, trying to provide a roof over his family.
"Kill these demon cultivators. If they don't die today, we will die. Everyone, don't hold back! Charge on!"
The city lord shouted loudly, and his voice penetrated the entire sky above Haicheng.
But he just stood there motionless, and didn't even kill any demon cultivator.
"Damn it, what a coward, what a wimp, all he does is talk. Why don't he just do it!"
While resisting the demon cultivators who jumped onto the city wall, Brother Wang cursed the city lord for his cowardice.
"It's our turn now!"
"City Lord, City Lord, I gave you a chance, but you are useless!"
"In that case, leave this Haicheng to me!"
Lin Wanwan curled up the corners of her mouth into a smile. Although no one else saw it, Brother Fang caught it.
"What is Miss Lin going to do? Why doesn't she look scared at all?"
Although he was full of questions, there were too many enemies and it was not the time to talk. Brother Fang could only suppress his doubts and concentrate on dealing with the enemies in front of him.
"City Lord, you old bastard, you already moved your family away. Now that disaster is upon us, you only shout nice things but haven't killed a single demon cultivator."
"What? Are you planning to kneel down and beg for mercy from the demon cultivators after your failure, hoping they'll spare your life?"
Lin Wanwan's crisp voice came, but the battle paused for a moment.
Both the demon cultivators outside the city and the common people inside the city heard her words.
"Where did this little girl come from? This is absolutely treasonous."
"It's easy to talk without any pain. I'll give you this city lordship. Do you want it?"
When the Lord of Haicheng heard someone slandering him, he immediately jumped up and cursed.
At this moment, he had completely lost his mysterious image, and instead acted like a street scoundrel.
"Okay, then you should give me the position of Lord of Haicheng. Remember my name is Lin Wanwan."
"Since you've already planned to evacuate, I doubt you'll truly protect Haicheng. Why not give up your position and let someone more capable take it?"
