Chapter 235 Prisoner in a Cage
Pulling up his hat, Su Tang said to the people around him: "Let's go."
Her body was a little unsteady, perhaps because she recalled too many nightmares that she wanted to forget. After all, she was just a girl who had never experienced any setbacks.
"It's dangerous to go out now!" Hill was about to stop them when he saw them rushing out.
This is the outer city area. After running for a distance, Su Tang will be able to exert the power of darkness.
I stayed here before just to see what Hill wanted to say.
Hill followed them and chased after them. The alert in the air screamed to report their location, but they ignored it and continued to run forward desperately.
Su Tang looked back at him. Everyone raised their hands and put them on her. She held her breath and placed her hands on her chest.
All they heard was the sound of crystal shattering, and they had disappeared out of thin air.
The purple-haired man who was originally standing on the top of the church looked up in surprise. The arrow cut through the rain curtain and pierced into the bluestone ground. The surrounding area within two meters was affected, forming a collapsed pit.
He stepped into the air, drew his bow and shot the arrow in one go. The muscles in his arms formed beautiful curves, and his superior muscles could be seen in his exposed upper body. He had broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and he was another handsome man in a unique way.
The arrow was aimed directly at Su Tang and his group's base outside the city. The sound of breaking wind across the sky came towards them. It was too late to dodge. Erlan instantly built a shield and blocked the arrow.
The rain was shaking, and the strong impact made their cloaks flutter. Seville couldn't keep his balance, and if Erlan hadn't grabbed him, he would have been blown away.
Erlan was not feeling well after resisting the arrow from the sharpshooter. A rusty taste came out of his throat. He spat out a mouthful of blood, calmed himself and said to the people behind him, "Go quickly."
The purple-haired man opened his tightly closed eyes. Although he could not see the situation in the distance, he could clearly sense that the arrow did not hurt anyone.
"How long has it been since anyone could withstand an arrow from me?"
He flew back to the City Lord's Mansion, not feeling any shame in his failure, and stated the facts.
"Let them run away."
Sheng Saier's face was frighteningly gloomy: "How many arrows did you shoot?"
"Two arrows, one missed, and one was blocked. The one coming is stronger than I expected."
There are not many people who can withstand his arrow. The purple-haired man put his legs on the table and expressed his guess.
"That power is like the bear tribe."
The bear tribe is a well-known defensive race among them, so it is not surprising that they can withstand one of his arrows.
"Even the bear tribe has submitted to him?" Sheng Sai'er crossed his hands and supported his chin. The bear tribe all followed him to protect him. It seemed that this battle for the throne was more intense than he thought.
The loss of the city lord's order is a big deal, but the matter happened to coincide with the replacement of the first elder, and it was Chris who led people to steal it, which easily makes people think that this was part of Cronin's seizure of the throne.
"What does he want to do?"
The purple-haired man leaned on the armrest: "What should we do now? Do you want me to send someone to inform Guangming City?"
"No hurry, have you forgotten the other function of the City Lord's Order?"
The purple-haired man raised his eyebrows, as if he had thought of something, and looked up at the ceiling with relief.
"I don't care how they fight, as long as it doesn't affect us."
The city lord's order can not only control the city gates, but also has another function. It represents the city lord's unconditional support and endorsement, which is equivalent to one vote of the elders. In this case, if you want to push those old guys to the top, the support of more than half of the elders is not enough.
If you can get the support of the city lord, the meaning will be different.
The old guys here are the retired veterans. Although they have abdicated, their influence is still there. Even if they are dead, their former power is still there.
Jonal told Krollin it was easy, that as long as he passed on the power to him, he would inherit the position of the first elder, but the reality was far from that easy. Of course, Jonal's original plan was not to inherit his things in the conventional way.
If Krollin was given some time, he would not be able to fail to notice the trick.
It's just that everything happened too suddenly, leaving him unprepared.
"What if the higher-ups come to investigate?"
If they lose the bet, their current status will definitely be affected, but the position of the city lord cannot be changed at will. The previous city lord of the Holy City was Sheng Saier's father. It is impossible to change the deeply rooted things unless you have the power of thunder.
Shengser stood up, and the room, which seemed as bright as day, reflected his gloomy look at the moment.
"What else can I do? She has the ability to steal, so you can't blame me. At most I'll be charged with dereliction of duty." What worries him more now is the female.
All the flattery was a trick to deceive him. This kind of power to bewitch people's hearts was really amazing. Was she really a female?
Or is it some beast king pretending to be him?
The only one who can block his perception and disguise himself as a female is the Beast King.
Thinking that he might be kissing and licking a male, Sheng Saier's face turned even darker, almost as dark as ash at the bottom of a pot. The purple-haired man looked at him with interest. He saw clearly how Su Tang kissed Sheng Saier.
Females don't have the ability to easily leave the City Lord's Mansion after stealing the City Lord's Order. Even if Sheng Saier didn't say it, he could guess something.
It's enough to just know this kind of thing in your heart. It would be too hurtful to say it out loud. After all, no one wants to be defiled by a male like this.
This psychological shadow is really too big.
"By the way, can you still do that in the future?"
Sheng Saier gritted his teeth and glanced at him: "Get lost!"
On the other side, Su Tang and his team left smoothly. Fortunately, the other party did not pursue them by shooting a second arrow, nor did they send troops out of the city to pursue them, otherwise they would not have left so easily.
The same method cannot be used a second time, and Su Tang has no intention of using this method to deceive the Lord of Dawn City again. Even if she wants to deceive him, she can't, because that man is not the type to flirt with other women.
"Where are we going now?" Chris held Su Tang and ran at full speed.
"Go to Dawn City. We are going to meet up with the main force there."
Su Tang clutched the jade fragment in her hand, and she felt unprecedented confidence in her heart. Although she was safe, she did not expect the plan to go so smoothly.
City of Light, Temple Dungeon.
"That bastard Krollin, I curse him to have a son without a handle. If you have the guts, let me out. I will tear that thing to pieces!"
A man with long light blond hair was cursing, his hands were bound with chains, his words were vicious but his tone was somewhat weak, it was obvious that he was not in a good condition at the moment.
The man next to him had ears hurt by the noise. His flaming long hair covered his fair body. He couldn't help it and yelled angrily.
"That's enough! Are you annoying? You can't stop talking nonsense, right? He can't hear you, and it hurts my ears."
The man with short brown hair and a burly figure echoed, "Yes, Leopard King, save your breath. Instead of wasting your time, you might as well think about how to escape."
Looking around, the prison cages were filled with elders of the temple and leaders of various tribes.
Cedric coughed twice, and when their noise died down, he said to the Fox King, "Fox King, your ability has no effect on him at all?"
He was talking about the person who came to give them medicine every day to suppress the power of their blood and make them unable to use any power.
"No, I tried several times. Krollin probably guessed that I would take the opportunity to control him, so he sent Tiancan. My power is useless against such a person."
The power of the Fox King can be exerted without the help of bloodline power, which is the only way for them to escape. However, they did not expect that Krollin took everything into account and sent Tiancan, who was born deaf, dumb and blind, to make it impossible for the Fox King to exert his power.
