"Everyone, guard well. That stinky Daoist will definitely come back. Tell the Mayor to lock up all those people with evil intentions. If they can't control themselves, the consequences will be dire."
The entire city was extremely nervous, growing to this size, this was the first time they had seen a monster attack a city. Fortunately, Heaven's End City was the number one weapon in the world, regardless of whether it was in terms of sharpness or speed, it was the best, otherwise they would have no way of dealing with these beasts.
In City Lord's Mansion, Ji Quan was unable to do anything to his lovely wife. Since when did she go down the mountain?
No matter what he thought, no matter whether he was happy or not, Qin Siyu had come and asked from afar:
"Husband, last time Imperial Advisor told me how to use the saltpeter charcoal. I just tested it. It was very scary!"
Ji Quan's face turned pale when he heard that. What are you doing that makes you want to study those dangerous items?
"Aiya, bring your son back to the mountain for me. Didn't I cancel your official position? Take the good child first, why are you causing so much trouble!"
"How can that be called causing trouble? Now that we're facing a great enemy, I at least know a bit of precaution. Gilly has already been sent to us to help us bring along. Nothing will happen to us. Quickly tell us about this …"
Ji Quan's expression changed:
"Servants, bring Madam back to the mountain!"
"I'm not leaving! Ji Quan, let me tell you, everyone is responsible for the troubles of the country. You can't underestimate a woman. The child is under father's care …"
No matter what she did, a group of guards had already surrounded them. They were used to the City Lord and his wife bickering every day.
"Madam, please come up the mountain!"
"You ~"
Humph!
Helpless, she could only turn around and leave. When this man became stubborn, no one could change his mind.
"You are not allowed to touch those things. Our people are studying them. Don't you know how many people have died in order to get this?"
"Mayor, we fought a bird today!"
"Alright, I'll go out and take a look."
Not long after, the City Lord's Mansion was once again filled with people. All of them were officials of the city, and facing the same difficulties, everyone treated them with unprecedented energy.
"City Lord, there are new discoveries. According to the Imperial Advisor, the evil ones tend to be possessed, and the more righteous ones are compared to the evil ones, the more they seem to be able to restrain those wild beasts …"
"That's right. I've observed carefully today. The beasts have weakened a lot where there are soldiers. It seems that the attack on the Gate of Wonder is less severe than on the other side."
"Oh right, Imperial Advisor said that this is a person who harbored evil thoughts using their Devil Clan, and planted a trace of devil attribute energy in their brain.
The first thing that erupted in the city was a few officials who had suddenly turned demonic. They would kill anyone they saw and their eyes would turn bloodshot. It took a lot of effort for them to subdue them.
"Sir Wang is right." Qing Yun strode in from the outside, "Just now, I had already ordered some people with evil thoughts to be locked up, please decide!"
He found a seat and sat down. The guards at the side immediately brought tea up to him. Those guarding the city were all heroes, and this was what the mayor said. They were the most admirable because they were careless and wouldn't be able to return.
"Will this cause panic among the people?" He was thinking of another point. Back then, when the officials were evil and killed a lot of people, what would the people think if they were in a mess?
"Mayor, in order to guard against future troubles, this official thinks it's feasible. I'll post a notice to let everyone understand the strength of this move and they will naturally cooperate!"
Meng Chuanzheng thought about it for a while before making a suggestion.
"Yeah, now that Heaven's End City is as close as a family, why don't we explain the situation to everyone? Imprisoning him is not a crime, it's helping him help out everyone, I think they are people that understand reason too."
"There are many foreign merchants in the city. How do they know if they have committed a crime?"
Everyone started discussing and tried their best to find a viable solution. Ji Quan listened quietly from the side and finally decided:
"Post a notice immediately. The person who has committed the greatest mistake will report it to the government. At the same time, the whistleblower has rendered meritorious service. For the sake of peace in the Heaven's End City, everyone will take good care of him …"
"A sign that says, everyone must keep a heart of justice. Do not have any evil thoughts, because right now is the time for the devil to find an accomplice. Those with evil thoughts will become wild beasts."
The streets were filled with shops and shops. No matter how fierce the battle was, the merchants would always be at the frontlines. Of course, not everyone had been sent to such a large city.
"Great! Today, the Demons have killed a huge bird, and it's so big ~"
Those who knew could use their hands to make a shape. "It can spit fire. It's too scary. That crossbow from the government could actually shoot fire. With a boom, it knocked that giant bird to the ground …"
"Listen to me, so what if the birds and beasts are big? They are just beasts, are we humans or are we not afraid of fighting them? "Everyone, don't be so afraid. This will only encourage the Devil Dao and destroy our own prestige."
"This big brother is right. I will stand on the street all day and attend the meeting when the officials have matters to attend to."
"Heaven's End City is really good, officials never trouble the commoners when they have things to do, now is the time to repay the grace, the city guards have already lost seven or eight thousand soldiers, your father will cry even if I see it!" For the Heaven's End City, even if I have to stake my life, I will not refuse! "
"Brother, I'm the same as you. Let's go together. We've drunk enough today, so let's sit here and keep them company until dawn arrives."
"Do you think the Imperial Advisor will come? I don't know how the capital is doing, there hasn't been any news from there for more than three months, I'm afraid all the people on the streets have already entered the beast race's territory.
"Wuu …" These animals! "I can only blame it on the short duration of my training …"
"Look! Look! It's late at night! There must be some news!"
Everyone surrounded him and posted a notice at night. They had never seen anything like this in the Heaven's End City, and this attracted everyone's attention.
"Heaven's End City, September 13th …"
"So that's how it is. Those officials usually treat us quite well. I never thought that there was such a reason behind it. The evil people are hard to change …"
"It's not that you can't change it, it's just that your heart isn't firm enough to attract evil spirits to your body!"
"That makes sense!"
Time passed day by day, and they had no idea that September 20th would be the day of their disaster. At that time, not only a few birds and beasts would be here, but a thousand.
"No matter what, I can't just sit there and wait for death. I'll go to the government tomorrow, I want to join the army. My cultivation isn't bad, I've already reached the first grade!"
