Chapter 288 How to enter the city
"City of the Underworld".

Although it is very strange, why there is only such a city in such a huge underworld.But Cheng Tianye quickly gave the answer.

Perhaps it is because the resources of the prefecture are not sufficient. In order to maximize the utilization efficiency of resources, it is a very good choice to gather all the originally scattered cities or villages into one city.

In particular, all the resources are concentrated in this city. The reason for this is that this place has something similar to the leylines, which can provide the spiritual energy used by most people in the city.

From the geographical point of view, this should be the farthest location where the terrain is flat, and the places a little further away should be high slopes or gravel piles where it is difficult to build a city.Moreover, there is also a considerable distance from the gate of the underworld, which can also protect the city well.

After Zhuge Li understood Cheng Tianye's analysis, she nodded.

She didn't expect Cheng Tianye to have a certain understanding of this kind of urban architecture, so she couldn't help admiring it.

"Let's wait here first, don't go in. Sneak in when the city gate opens."

The ancient walls are steep and difficult to climb.

And if the city gate with a height of more than ten meters is not opened from the inside, it is estimated that it will take about ten kilograms of gunpowder to explode.

The explosives carried by two people obviously cannot reach this level, and if they do that, it will directly alarm everyone in the city.

This is completely contrary to Cheng Tianye's plan to sneak in at the beginning.

From a little initiative, to a complete passive state.

The little ghosts carrying lanterns we saw before cannot be regarded as a regular force in this city.

You must know that the little ghost is only responsible for patrolling, and the combat power can be converted into zero to one, and at most it is no more than five.

And the combat power in the city is conservatively estimated to be more than ten.

No matter how good Cheng Tianye and Zhuge Li were at fighting, it was impossible for them to retreat unscathed in the face of a tide of enemies, or they might die here directly.

The pile of bones under his feet may be the person who entered the gate of the underworld by mistake.

Carefully dodged the patrolling imps, but that was only the first hurdle.

The second checkpoint is this city wall.

If you use brute force to forcibly break through the city wall, there is a high probability that you will be shot into a sieve by the guards on the tower.

Although the defenders only attack with bows and arrows, they are still very aggressive.

For example, Cheng Tianye is holding a skull now. Although there is no trace of flesh on it, the strength of the defenders can still be judged by what is on its head.

A bow and arrow was inserted from the front of the skull, and shot through the entire skull, but the tail fin was stuck by the bone and did not shoot out completely.

The so-called "strong bow and crossbow" is talking about such a thing.

A bow and arrow that an adult might not be able to draw, once successfully shot, the power can be described as "terror".

Moreover, the guard's attack methods may not only have bows and arrows.

Judging from the stones that fell on the skeletons, the guards also used weapons such as falling rocks as a supplementary weapon.

A conclusion can now be fully drawn.

The attack methods of the guards on the city walls are very old, and they are completely the same as the guards of the old days.

Although there was no room for retaliation against well-armed opponents like Cheng Tianye and Zhuge Li, it was a good thing to deal with unarmed, even a little insane, life-or-death opponents.

Even though Cheng Tianye was fully sure that he would not lose to anyone before this city wall, he was not sure about facing all the characters in the entire city.

From ordinary citizens to military generals, and even the owners of this city, if these people came out in an instant, they would probably become one of the bones in a few seconds.

Therefore, for the safety of the two of them, Cheng Tianye did not act rashly.

Even when communicating with Zhuge Li, they use typing instead of speaking.

I am afraid that the sound will be transmitted to the city wall along the slow-flowing wind, and the guards above will notice the two people at the heel of the city wall.

Such caution is not cowardice, but the best behavior to save the lives of two people and create greater value.

"Boss, how long are we going to wait here? We can't wait for a week, can we?"

Zhuge Li typed on the phone and handed it to Cheng Tianye.

Zhuge Li's idea was correct.

If the city gate really opens once a week, the frequency of opening and closing is the number of times the patrolling ghosts leave the city.According to the patrolling brats we met just now, it may not have been too long since the city gate was opened last time.Even if the patrol kid came back, he would have to wait for a while.What's more, those little ghosts have turned into scattered auras and will never come back.Thinking about it this way, will this city gate never be opened?
Moreover, a week is considered a relatively optimistic idea.

What if it starts in a month, or a few months?

Is it possible to wait here for a lifetime?

Cheng Tianye looked at the bright text on the screen, but he had no way to deal with it.

There are only two ways to sneak into the city undetected.

One is to get in through the open city gate.

And this method requires the city gate to be opened.

If the gates of the city are not opened for ten days and a half month, they can only wait for ten days and a half month.

If the city gate is not opened for three to five years, two people may die at the heel of the city wall and become two fresh bones in this pile of bones.

The second method is to hook the rope on the tower, climb the tower along the rope, and then sneak into the city.

However, I don't know whether the life forms in the underworld need to rest, whether they need to be rotated, when to rotate, and for how long.Without knowing any of these important information, if you throw the rope rashly, it is easy for people to hear the sound.It is very likely to leave an opportunity for the opponent to set a trap.Two people climbed up the rope, and in mid-air, the guards on the tower cut the rope with a knife, and the two fell from a height of more than ten meters.There is a high probability that you will fall to your death directly, and the better chance is that your body will be broken.

However, in such a place, it is difficult to find a doctor.There is almost no cure for a broken arm or broken leg.If you are unlucky and directly break your spine, you can only watch your life slowly disappear, and there is no way to stop it.

Comparing the two situations, the first method is more secure.

Although the prerequisite for the success of the first method is that the city gate is opened.

Suddenly, Cheng Tianye leaned his face on the ground and pressed his ears to the ground.

Although Zhuge Li didn't understand what Cheng Tianye's actions meant, she still waited honestly for Cheng Tianye to give her a reasonable explanation.

"Get ready, we're leaving."

While raising his head, Cheng Tianye quickly conveyed an important message to Zhuge Li in a low voice.
