Chapter 470 Dead City


    After learning that there was an accident in the royal city, Duanmu Huai took a few people on a Valkyrie gunboat and flew directly towards the royal city - it was too slow to send people to investigate, so it was better to go over and see it with your own eyes.


    However, when the group arrived over the royal city, the scene in front of them did shock them.


    The entire royal city was silent at this moment, and there was no sign of people at all. Black smoke was everywhere, and many buildings had even collapsed, looking like ruins!


    "What''s going on with this...is this? Is it a demon invasion???"


    Rolex asked in surprise, while Cleolev shook his head.


    "The situation is not right. Look carefully. If it is an invasion of foreign enemies, then the damage on the periphery should be the most serious. But you can see here, there is also here... It is obvious that the enemy launched an attack from the center... So what we should consider is..."


    "That doesn''t mean anything."


    Hearing this, Kanami silently retorted.


    "At that time, Prince Patton of Hermann joined forces with the demons and suddenly appeared in the royal city of Lisas through the portal, which made us unable to make effective resistance at all..."


    “…………”


    Cleolev had nothing to say.


    Indeed, with Lissa''s lesson, you have to say that it is not a demon...


    "Huh? This is very interesting."


    However, just as the cabin was in awkward silence and silence, Duanmu Huai''s voice suddenly rang out.


    "What''s wrong? Lord Judge?"


    "I used a bird divination ritual to scan the entire city and found that there were basically few life signals in the royal city."


    "Why?"


    Hearing this, Kanami and others were stunned.


    "What does this mean?"


    “Simply put, there are not many living people in this city.”


    Duanmuhuai spread her hands.


    "If I were to say more precisely, there would be only one, two, three, four, six, seven, and eight left in this city right now... a total of seventeen living people."


    "How is this possible!"


    Hearing this, Cleolev and Rolex were both shocked.


    "There are hundreds of thousands of residents in the city. Where have those people gone?"


    "Maybe he ran away, maybe... dead?"


    “What did Stese do in the Council…”


    "We don''t know, but I think someone here must know."


    As he spoke, Duanmu Huai opened the holographic map and projected the entire royal city. Then he reached out and pointed at the small light spots here.


    "These are signs of life reaction. As of now, about twelve or three signs of life are located in the Fortress of Kings. The rest are scattered everywhere, and there are several underground waterways located below. They may be survivors, maybe who they are... But this doesn''t matter. As long as we find them, catch them and ask, we will know what''s going on."


    Speaking of this, Duanmu Huai turned his head and looked at Kanami and Ringnu.


    "Leave it to the friends, no problem."


    "I see."


    Kanami nodded seriously, while the bellgirl laughed.


    Soon, the Valkyrie gunboat hovered down in the air and then hovered on a square. Then Ringnu and Kanami slid down the rope from it and began to move.


    "This is really..."


    Although I saw the dilapidated scene of this royal city in the air, Kanami was still quite shocked when she was in it and looking at the broken statues and houses.


    However, compared to Kanami''s shock, Ringnu seemed a little confused. She looked left and right, showing a strange expression.


    “It’s so strange…”


    "strangeness?"


    "Yes, Kanami, didn''t you find it? There wasn''t a single body here."


    "What you said... is indeed..."


    Hearing the reminder of the bellgirl, Kanami also trembled all over and reacted. Indeed, as Lingnu said, the city is clearly under very serious attacks at present. Logically speaking, even if this place is not a river of blood, it should be full of corpses. However, looking around, there was no body in the square, street, or even in the alley.


    The whole city is as quiet as a dead city that has long been abandoned.


    "What''s going on?"


    Kanami swallowed, feeling her hair standing up.


    "No, it''s not a haunted person!"


    “Now is not the time to discuss this issue.”


    At this moment, Duanmu Huai''s voice also came from her ears.


    "You should act as soon as possible!"


    Hearing Duanmu Huai’s contact, Kanami nodded, then looked at the bellgirl, lowered her body, and ran forward like a gust of wind.


    According to the mark on the map, the life signal is located in the underground waterway. Fortunately, there are two veterans who are familiar with the royal city. Rolex has been to the Royal City Guards at the time and is clear about the various places here. Under his guidance, the two soon found the entrance to the underground waterway and then got in.


    In the underground waterway, there was darkness.


    “………”


    The man hugged his daughter tightly, held a knife, and hid in the small hole in the sewer. The cold and smelly sewer is not a good place, but he dares not make a fire, let alone go out to find food. Because the man knew that there was a group of terrible monsters outside... Although he was not sure if they would find it here, the man dared not take risks.


    "Dad... feels uncomfortable..."


    The daughter in her arms was so weak that she could hardly hear her voice. Of course, she could feel that her petite body was already hot, but he had no choice.


    Maybe, the ending of my life is to die here tragically with my child?


    “————!”


    Just as the man closed his eyes and was waiting for death in despair, suddenly, he felt his throat tightening, and a dagger quietly stretched out from the side and pressed against his neck!


    Who is it? !


    "Don''t make a sound."


    At the same time, a leisurely girl''s voice appeared in his ears.


    "You, who are you? I clearly set up a trap at the door!"


    "That kind of simple trap, even mice won''t be fooled."


    Kanami, who had dealt with the trap now, also walked over and looked at the man in front of her.


    "Is it him?"


    “That’s right.”


    "You, aren''t you accomplices of those monsters?"


    Looking at the bento and Kanami in front of him, the man suddenly became excited.


    "We are here to save you, and we also want to know what happened in this city. Okay, come with me, your daughter doesn''t look like it''s in a good situation."


    Without any hesitation, the man nodded and stood up with his daughter in his arms.


    For him, maybe this is the last chance!


    Without any danger, Kanami and Rinna brought the man and his daughter back to the Valkyrie gunboat, and his daughter was seriously ill and was taken for treatment. As for the man, he stayed and reported to everyone what he knew.


    In fact, according to the man, he himself was not very clear about what was going on. He was just a poor sewer cleaner who was responsible for cleaning the sewer sanitation, and at the same time he found something from it and sold it to make a living.


    However, just a few days ago, his fate changed that day.


    The royal city was attacked.


    The man himself was not sure about the specific situation. He only knew that he had just started working, and then the Council suddenly sent out a news of martial law across the city, claiming to the public that the rebels were about to attack the royal city... At that time, he had naturally heard of such news for the lower class people like him, no matter whether it was the rebels or the Council, no matter who was in power, the sewers still needed to be cleaned, and he believed that no one would compete with him for this job...


    At that time, the man also talked about this with his colleagues who were changing shifts, but everyone did not think too much about it except for worrying that prices would rise in the next few days.


    Then, the disaster happened.


    A group of terrible soldiers suddenly appeared and killed everyone they saw!


    "They killed everyone, even soldiers from the same Kingdom of Hermann and soldiers from the guards!"


    When he recalled that scene, the man couldn''t help but tremble. Moreover, those soldiers did not wear black armor like Herman soldiers. On the contrary, they wore a very strange golden armor, and wrapped their bodies tightly, almost airtight, giving people a feeling more like walking armor than humans.


    Not only that, the cruelty of these soldiers is indescribable.


    "They are like a group of terrible monsters, not like humans at all. Even the elderly and children, they can still be killed!"


    "But we didn''t see any body on the street."


    "This is another strange place I want to talk about. Those terrible monsters took away all the corpses!"


    "Take it away? Where did you take it?"


    "In the castle of the royal city..."


    “………………”


    Cryolev and Rolex looked at each other, and both of them had solemn expressions.


    Now it seems that this is indeed more like the planning by the Council, and if the man is right, the other party started to kill heavily after blocking the entire city in the name of "resistance rebels". So what is all this for? It would be fine if you just kill people, why do you still have to bring all their bodies to the royal city?


    What exactly does the Council want to do?


    No one knows, but... everyone has an unknown feeling.


    "What should I do next? Lord Judge?"


    Uruze frowned and looked at Duanmuhuai uneasy.


    "What should I do."


    Duanmu Huai made a decisive decision.


    "Action immediately and prepare to attack the royal city! By that time, we will know what the **** is doing in the Council!"
