Chapter 179 Follow-up of historical events

Yorktown is a small town.

In the morning, its city lord ran away with his followers.

That being the case, it is only a matter of time before it is taken down.

Those powerful and evil demon lords have already set their sights on large cities with many professionals, complete defenses, and dense population.

For York City—

There are a total of 790 middle and low-level devil troops in charge of the siege.

York City's fate was already sealed.

And indeed, it was slaughtered in one day.

then.

Things took a different turn.

A team of 30 professionals suddenly appeared at the gate of the city.

30 people.

Against 790 devils.

The level of both sides is not high.

But there is a decisive factor that makes the situation of the whole battle turn sharply——

The guy hiding behind a ferocious monster, with justice written all over his face, muttering "the devil also needs a chance to change his past".

——He is the captain of the York City garrison knights.

Whenever a devil is wounded, a divine light will emanate from his hand.

Whether it was a human or a devil, once he was injured, he would not hesitate to use high-level healing techniques to make the wound disappear miraculously.

——He directly turned the team of 30 professionals into a gleaming meat grinder.

The whole team rushed all the way to the square of the city.

Anyone, as long as they are injured, can be healed immediately, and they can recover in just a few breaths.

Professionals only need to worry about how to stab the weapon into the devil's body.

——Many professionals even gave up their skills and directly slashed and killed the rushing devils.

From the beginning to the end, neither the human race nor the devil expected this to happen.

The devils have organized a few decent raids.

But beside the knight commander, a demon cat several meters high smashed all the assassinations directly.

It closely guards the knight commander.

Only at certain intervals when it is safe, will the demon cat escape quietly.

Not long after, it quickly returned to the knight commander, and put the devil in its mouth under the knight commander's feet.

The knight commander stretched out a foot——

Stepping on the face of the dying devil, he took a closer look, and said softly: "This one is going to die soon, get another one."

"Meow!"

The demon cat picked up the devil in its mouth and jumped out in an instant.

Soon.

It held a devil in its mouth again, and threw it at the foot of the knight captain.

This time the knight commander was satisfied.

"Zhao Mingguang, bring the shackles." He said.

A soldier ran up, and without waiting for further instructions from the knight commander, he skillfully handcuffed the devil's hands and feet to death, then took out a rune collar with great care, and fastened it around the devil's neck.

"This is an enchantment collar. Once it dares to make any small movements, it will immediately—bang!"

The soldier said in a tone of merit, and then looked at the knight commander expectantly.

"Good job!"

The knight commander patted him on the shoulder, then said silently to the void: "Give him a hint:"

"The Captain of the York City Defense Knight's favorability towards you has increased."

A line of burning small characters appeared in the void:

"A corresponding reminder has been given."

The soldier really looked towards the void in front of him.

He looked at the void intently, and after a while, his face gradually showed joy.

"Brother, I'm much better here, or put collars on all these captured devils."

"Yes." The knight leader said.

The soldier squatted down and put collars on the captured devils.

"Tell him that the Knight Commander's favorability has increased again."

The knight commander quietly said to the void.

The soldier's face became more joyful, he quickly tied up all the devils, stood up, and asked curiously:
"What's the use of catching them? Why not just kill them?"

"My scouts told me that the devils have completed an ultra-long-distance summoning in the square in the center of the city, and a powerful guy will arrive here soon." The long knight said.

This is the most important thing in the whole battle.

Because these devils still hoped that reinforcements would come, they still refused to surrender.

Yana's ability cannot be extracted by herself at all.

"Understood, you want to use these captives to negotiate terms!" The soldier suddenly realized.

"Stop talking nonsense, go and command the battle!" the knight said.

"Yes!" The soldier hurried away.

The knight commander grabbed the chain in his hand, dragged seven or eight devils, and continued to walk forward.

……

Three 10 minutes later.

Liu Ping stood on the square in York City, his whole body was radiant with constantly boiling light.

"Congratulations, you have completed the task."

he smiled.

The professionals lay staggered on the ground, gasping for breath, exhausted to death.

Although it won't hurt--

But with more than 700 devils, on average, each person had to kill more than [-] devils. Even if they were killing pigs, they were exhausted to the limit.

"Master Knight, treasure...gem." Zhao Mingguang panted.

"It's like this——" Liu Ping coughed lightly, and said, "The mine is just outside the city. In view of your outstanding performance, I will give you half a day. How many gems you can dig will belong to you."

He added: "Zhao Mingguang can dig for an extra half an hour."

The professionals cheered.

As for Zhao Mingguang——

He showed the expression that "all the hard work has finally paid off handsomely".

Liu Ping also nodded with a smile.

The reserves of the mine have actually been almost exhausted.

But he believes that with the abilities of professionals, it is still very possible to dig three feet into the ground and dig out thirty, or even forty or fifty gems.

—Professionals like this kind of open reward.

In this way, the original sixty gems were saved.

I am also very happy.

All are happy.

In addition, through this battle, Andrea's awakening rate has reached [-]%.

The soul power given by more than 700 devils is still quite impressive.

Everything is going in a good direction.

"Master Knight, the evil ceremony here seems to have been completed, and that powerful devil is probably coming soon, so we really don't need us to continue working?" Zhao Mingguang tentatively asked.

"No need, your task has been completed, go digging now." Liu Ping said.

Everyone winked at each other, as if they still wanted to test something.

Liu Ping looked towards the center of the square, and saw all the weird runes lighting up one after another.

The ceremony is complete!

"Give them a reminder: the follow-up missions require level [-] to join, otherwise they will die if they stay here." Liu Ping said.

"Prompted." Sequence said.

next moment.

The professionals jumped up one after another and ran away like a gust of wind.

Their speed was so fast that they disappeared without a trace in just a few breaths.

Zhao Mingguang's voice came from afar:

"My lord, after we become stronger, we will see you again next time!"

Liu Ping shook his head.

The origins of these guys are mysterious, and Sequence refuses to say——

Forget it.

The next thing is really not something they can participate in.

He looks into the void.

Lines of burning small characters quickly floated there:

"History cannot be changed."

"In the long river of time, this day, December 37, 12 Ceylon calendar, is the moment of destruction of the city of York."

"At this moment, this historical event has been judged to have completely occurred."

"The only thing you can do is to add new historical events after the historical events that destroyed York City."

"start!"

In the square, a strange voice sounded:

"Who? In the ruined human city, launched a meaningless challenge to us?"

Void moves.

A strange man in a black windbreaker landed gently.

He held a skull in one hand and a carving knife in the other, as if he was carving something.

Liu Ping said: "I have a business deal with you."

"What business?" the man asked.

"This city has already been destroyed by you anyway, now, let's leave here, we will live in peace," Liu Ping said.

Under his feet, all the bound devils cried out for help.

The strange man glanced at it, and said indifferently: "I was summoned anyway, and it's hard to make a deal if I don't kill you."

Liu Ping said: "Are you sure you want to fight? I'm already very tired now, and I don't want to make troubles at all. Why don't I give you a fortune, what do you think?"

The strange man's expression changed, he laughed and said, "Oh? What kind of wealth—"

Before he finished speaking, a huge phantom rushed up and directly knocked him into the sky.

Zhao Chanyi!
She turned into a human form, pulled out a bright long knife from the void, and slashed endlessly in the air.

——Vacuum cut method!
Dense cutting sounds burst out from the strange man's body.

"Ah ah ah! Asshole!"

The strange man let out a cry full of pain, and his figure suddenly became dark and huge.

He turned into a humanoid monster with a one-horned head, dodging continuously in the sky, and finally landed far away at the other end of the square.

"Damn knight, you are doomed to pay for your recklessness!"

The monster said while gnashing his teeth, and suddenly saw strands of soft light staying on the fine cuts on his body.

These rays of light have the ability to heal, and in an instant, all wounds will be healed.

The monster was startled.

sneak up on me-

And then healed me—

It looked at the knight.

I saw that the knight was talking to the monster who turned into a woman.

"...the knife is too hasty..."

"The third tactic is a bit more powerful than the second tactic..."

"...When chopping, be careful not to leave any flaws. There were two flaws just now..."

The knight kept talking, and the woman beside him kept nodding, and occasionally asked a few questions.

what are they doing?
The devil was very surprised.

Just at this time they finished talking, the knight turned around, with a look of compassion and justice on his face, and said sternly: "O devil, you have gone astray too far, it seems that today I have to let you know that your life actually has a lot of meaning. Another possibility is that it will be more active, more productive, and healthier than the life you have now."

The devil tilted his head.

—It turned out to be a neuropathy.

But the fight just now has offended my dignity.

Kill you.

Get things done here quickly, then go back.

The devil thought silently, but saw a soft and holy light from the knight's hands.

The knight said loudly:
"Come on, let us see whether justice has defeated evil, or evil has fallen at the feet of justice."

opinionated!

The devil grinned, and was about to pounce on it as soon as he moved.

At this moment, it suddenly noticed something.

Under the knight's feet, the dying devils let out desperate roars and screams as if they had seen something terrible.
