Apocalypse Magician

Chapter 99 Star Snow City Defense 1

A few days later, Li Xingkong also arrived at Xingxue City as planned.

As long as he informed Yun Lan about the work of the killer organization, Li Xingkong would not have to interfere with the construction of the underground base and the mining of magic crystal veins.

As for Xingxue City itself, Li Xingkong is currently preparing to use it as his base to compete for the mainland, so the construction of Xingxue City is the key point.

Li Xingkong has lived near Xingxue City since he was a child, and he is very familiar with the situation here.

Due to the barren land and inconvenient transportation, and being located on the border, the Sunset Empire did not invest any resources in Star Snow City, making everything in Star Snow City backward.

The only thing that can be barely justified is the military strength. The Star Snow City defense force has a standing force of 20,000 people, which is equivalent to the standard of an average large city. After all, it must be considered that Star Snow City is a link on the Sunset Empire's border defense line. If the enemy country accidentally uses this It's not good if it's a breakthrough.

However, this is an era of war, and the most important thing is military strength, and Xingxue City has some advantages.

Of course Li Xingkong knew this, so when he entered Xingxue City, the first thing he did was to reorganize the city defense forces.

Xingxue City is poor and backward. Even the dignified City Lord's Mansion is just an ordinary house. The only place where tens of thousands of people can gather is the square in front of the City Lord's Mansion.

A moment passed when the army gathered. Although most of the people had arrived, there was still no sign of the leader of the city defense army. Li Xingkong smiled coldly in his heart.

I have long expected that these guys are used to being loose and will not obey orders so easily. If I don't give you some color, I thought I have no temper.

"This deputy general," Li Xingkong walked to the first team on the left and asked the deputy general who was responsible for the defense of the eastern part of Xingxue City, "it has been so long, why hasn't the general arrived yet?"

The deputy general didn't answer. He just glanced at Li Xingkong, snorted coldly, and then looked at the sky.

"This deputy general," Li Xingkong smiled politely, "do you know where the general is?"

"Are you talking to me?" The man finally looked at Li Xingkong again, "I thought you were singing."

"Hahahaha..." As soon as these words came out, the crowd burst into laughter, especially the four lieutenants standing in front, holding their stomachs and pointing at Li Xingkong, not taking the new city lord seriously at all.

"You like going to the theater so much, okay, I have approved it." Li Xingkong's expression did not change, but his tone was a little more serious, "Take off this military uniform, and you can go home and watch the theater forever. There is a good show to watch. When the time comes, remember to call me."

"Take off your military uniform? Hahaha..." The man burst into laughter, even suspecting that he heard wrongly, "I am a deputy general bestowed by His Majesty the King. How can I be dismissed by a young boy like you?"

"I, the city lord, was also bestowed by His Majesty the King, and am your superior." Li Xingkong immediately turned cold, and his tone was completely opposite to what he had just said, "According to the rules, anyone who resists an order in the army will be killed!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xingkong drew his sword and swung it across. The opponent was so frightened that he threw his head back and somersaulted, barely dodging.

Li Xingkong's sword movement was deliberately delayed by half a beat. At this time, the focus was on establishing power. If he used the pretext of a sneak attack, he might not achieve the desired effect.

When the opponent drew his sword, Li Xingkong jumped up, the sword light flowed, and he slashed straight away.

This head-on blow sent the lieutenant flying dozens of meters and fell to the ground. However, Li Xingkong's force remained unabated. The long sword was pointed at his opponent. As soon as his opponent raised his head, he saw the tip of the sword pointed at his throat.

"You'd better be dismissed and go home." Li Xingkong took back his sword. He was bound to kill someone today, but these things in front of him were obviously not of enough weight. "Soldiers will die on the battlefield, so I won't kill you."

"You..." The deputy general was stunned on the spot, silent, as if he was considering what to do.

"So, may I ask this deputy general?" Li Xingkong returned to his smiling face and walked to the front of the second team, "Where has the general gone?"

"Uh, this..." The attitude of this lieutenant general has obviously changed a lot. Originally, the strength of the four lieutenants were all about the same. The average level of the great swordsman was unbeatable by others. Naturally, he was no match. In the past, I thought that this city lord was young and probably a playboy who relied on his family to rise to power. Now it seems that he is actually a powerful man. The city lord cannot afford to offend him, but the general cannot afford to offend him. "I really don't know..."

"You don't know, okay." Li Xingkong still smiled and walked to the third team, "So, do you know?"

"Uh, ah, actually, well, the weather is nice today..." The third lieutenant unconsciously took a small step back, thinking about how to get through. The city lord in front of him obviously would not be in a good mood. If he had the intention , your head can be moved at any time.

"Hmph, there's nothing you can't say." Suddenly, a young man walked out of the team, "The general went to find his ninth aunt, she should still be in bed now."

"Ding Linchuan, you are just a little captain, what are you talking nonsense about?" The deputy general along the way couldn't help it, and kept winking while scolding him. In fact, this was for Ding Linchuan's good, and he was someone that even the deputy general could not afford to offend. Why should a mere captain get into trouble?

"Everyone knows whether I'm talking nonsense or not." Ding Linchuan stepped forward with an air of righteousness, as if these words had been in his heart for a long time, "Xingxue City is indeed poor, but we can't stop making progress because of this. The generals of the army are living and drinking. , the army is unorganized and undisciplined. How can it resist foreign enemies in this turbulent era? Look at the people in the city, they are our relatives, what should we use to protect them and our hometown?"

After these words, the entire audience fell silent, and Li Xingkong looked at the young man named Ding Linchuan quite unexpectedly.

This man has a handsome face, sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, showing that he is righteous, and his actions just now prove this.

Li Xingkong nodded silently. As expected, people still yearn for justice, and not everyone in Xingxue City's army is so unbearable.

As for the silence of the four lieutenants, Li Xingkong was not puzzled. He had sent Yun Lan to inquire about the news before arriving here.

Ding Linchuan's strength is that of a high-ranking great swordsman, and he is known as the second master in Xingxue City. He is above the four lieutenants. The reason why he is only a captain now is because he is too young and has no background, so he will naturally be suppressed by the above. However, this None of the lieutenants are willing to provoke someone who is stronger than themselves, especially when they are confused about the situation.

"Well said!" In the silence, sporadic applause sounded from the corner of the square. A small group of people walked out, and the one who led the applause was Ye Xinhu.

Ye Xinhu is still wearing a light green dress, smiling slightly, like flowers blooming in the breeze, becoming the last scenery in this poor and backward town.

The title of the most beautiful woman in Xingxue City has long been expected, and her appearance naturally attracted countless eyes. On the surface, those in the team looked forward with their heads high, but in fact most of them secretly glanced at her several times.

"Lord City Lord, this is the team of magicians from Star Snow City." Ye Xinhu bowed slightly, meeting the city lord for the first time as a subordinate, "There are five trainee magicians, four junior magicians, and I am an intermediate level wind magician. The magician is temporarily in charge of this team."

"Yeah." Li Xingkong smiled and nodded, which was considered a response. He didn't expect that there would be a team of magicians in such a small town, but with this lineup, there were actually about the same number of magicians.

There were more important things at this time. Li Xingkong looked around, scanning every corner, then smiled and announced loudly: "Since the general believes that being with his concubines is more important than discussing military affairs, then I The city lord approved it and asked him to hand over the military talisman so that he could rest at home forever."

"Which bastard dares to dismiss me from my position?" Suddenly, a loud voice came, and as the voice went out, I saw a burly man walking into the arena, with a broad sword in his hand inserted into the ground, he glanced at everyone in the arena, and gave his last glance Staying on Ye Xinhu, "Ye Xinhu, I asked you to consider being the tenth concubine. It's time for you to give me a reply, right?"
