Chapter 280 The battle is about to start
Xiao Ling's explanation was naturally accepted by the townspeople. + The doubts were gone. Even Wen Di, Li Tianxiao, and Ling Wulin behind him were treated preferentially.
With asceticism in your body, Xiao Ling will definitely be innocent. Because sinful people will definitely be punished by God.
Those who doubt this are questioning God’s power and the Lord! Who dares?
But in fact, this is just a trick to delay the effective time of the contractual field, which makes Xiao Ling seem to have always abide by the precepts and agreements with the Lord - not only punishment is delayed, but even the pain is delayed. Although he has Jack's rifting knife, in this world, the rifting knife is forbidden.
At this moment, he was talking lies openly in public and he didn't know how many commandments he had violated; no, from the moment he relied on the contract to swear to the priest to practice, he was constantly violating the precepts...
The words of violation of the precepts were simply tailored for him. I guess God has never seen a believer as blasphemous as he did.
In short, he was completely trapped in a Jedi situation, and a storm that seemed impossible to survive was resolved by Xiao Ling...
"These hateful robbers were not honest before their death and tried to slander a devout believer like Xiao Ling!"
"Yes, it's really abominable to use such clumsy means to distract us! It seems that hanging is cheaper to him..."
"That's right, if Xiao Ling had not practiced diligently, their plan would have been done. We must teach them a lesson!"
The situation reversed instantly. The townsmen who suddenly realized it rushed to the punishment platform and rushed to the robber who tried to "slander" Xiao Ling, smashed with fists, stepped on it with their feet, and bite with their teeth... The robber cried and begged for mercy. He screamed at the top of his lungs, and moaned like a wandering stream. He was completely submerged in the shouts of people.
But in the blink of an eye, it turned into a pile of flesh and blood that had been gnawed by piranhas in the Amazon River...
Even if you are not a beautiful woman who is so charming, you can still untied your clothes and wear them. Xiao Ling did it!
The townsmen on the stage were fighting around the robbers. Wendi, Li Tianxiao, and Ling Wulin looked at Xiao Ling with horror. They didn't know at all when Xiao Ling tied up such a belt, and it was notarized by the priest.
But at this moment, he seemed like a premonition. He had predicted the situation today in advance and made special preparations.
Xiao Ling squinted his eyes and looked at their incomprehensible expressions: "I'm talking now, I almost got the evil god's black blood last night and poisoned those holy light horses to death. Do you believe it?"
"Believe! Believe! Believe!" Several people nodded like pounding garlic.
Xiao Ling raised his finger: "Actually, it's not difficult to imagine these two things... The fact that there are a few holy light horses in the stable means that the master reserves plans to expand the scale of the war; the undercover identity is obviously a time bomb. The master wants to make things difficult for us and create trouble. It's very convenient to start from these two aspects."
"Since that's the case, it's not surprising that the townspeople have prepared several moves in advance so that the townspeople don't doubt us at all, right?"
"Well. We know this." The three of them nodded together, "Think about it carefully, there are traces to follow. What we are strange about is how you did it... it was not how you thought of this trick, but how you concealed it from the so-called holy light."
This... it is difficult to leak when it comes to your own abilities. Xiao Ling touched his chest and teleported the topic: "You want to know? It's okay. I have a few assassination belts here, you can find out if you try it yourself."
"Then let it go!" Looking at the ascetic belt that shone cold light, the three of them shook their heads together.
"I really don't try it? I can guarantee that if you tie this thing to pass the level, you will definitely get more rewards!"
The three of them hesitated. Ling Wulin was quite straightforward and took the harp belt tentatively. He lifted his clothes and tied it up on his body. Before he could use much force, "Ah! Ah! Ah!" The pain like a tide swept over him. In an instant, tears came out. Fortunately, he was good at endurance and had expertise in ** manipulation.
This is a bit similar to Xiao Ling's blood-sucking immortal body, which can increase the recovery speed and reduce the pain in people. However...
After the instinctive activation ability reduced the pain, he pulled out the ascetic belt like an electric shock in the next second and threw it to the ground.
His abilities are called heretics in this world, and the power of holy light is like ice and fire. Once the ability is activated, the power of holy light brought by the ascetic practice burns instantly, as hot as a soldering iron.
"Hahaha..." Someone saw his movements in the distance and couldn't help laughing, laughing at him overestimating his abilities. Obviously, the Ascetic Trap was not tried by one or two people.
Ling Wulin threw down the ascetic belt like an electric shock, staring at Xiao Ling blankly, as if he saw a ghost. The extraordinary power could not be used at all. The more he used it, the more he felt the more painful it was. How did Xiao Ling suffer such pain?
"Actually... I am a true believer!" Xiao Ling said seriously with a light cough.
"I believe you, I'll see the hell!" The three of them complained. Although they didn't understand Xiao Ling's methods, they could still see this.
Anyway, the matter was solved like this.
Oh, by the way. There are system rewards after safely getting through the difficulties—
[Congratulations, you have successfully conveyed the information that Clermont Town asked for help from other places and kept the secret of his undercover identity! You have obtained 300 world currencies.]
[You have obtained 3000 experience points. You have obtained 1 Destiny Silver Coin.]
The evaluation ratio is still 2.5 and 1.5. However, in terms of experience value, Xiao Ling has not moved. The master has followed the agreement with him and eliminated his experience value and obtained it.
While the system reward pops up, Wendi also received a message from Li Sheng—
They received a wide-ranging heroic post from the robbers, summoning heroes from all over the country and forests to gather together in their nests to discuss the task of attacking Clermont Town and seizing the treasures of the Golden City.
However, this task is completely different from the help-seeking mission in Clermont Town. Clermont Town is an official unit, asking for help is really asking for help. Taking the system route, there is no need for players to do anything. The robbers’ hero posts are actually sending subordinates to coerce other robber forces around them, both soft and hard.
The weak ones were directly swallowed up, and the powerful ones were lured to benefit, and the team was strengthened as quickly as possible. Since the troops in Clermont Town were much more powerful than expected, of course, their attacking firepower must also keep up.
Li Sheng went back like this...
The plot has advanced to this point, and both sides of the enemy and us have already accumulated strength for the final decisive battle. Before this, there should be no trouble.
The situation on Xiao Ling's side has stabilized. The robbers are not very crowded. Li Sheng will take this team back and maybe he can recruit one or two more reinforcements to make the robbers stronger, so that he will have the opportunity to compete with Clermont Town, who is doing his best. That is always good.
============
Time passes in a busy life...
In just one day, the defenses around Clermont Town were completely transformed.
The semi-short stone walls behind it, the tunnel defense line, and the horses tied with pointed wood as thick as arms... row after row, almost filled the passage below Clermont.
Not to mention that hundreds of people are stationed, just look at the pit like a gopher, and thousands of people can do their best tolerate it. Stick to the defense line. If you can't defend the defense line, you can retreat to the back line and continue to stick to it. If you can't defend it, you can continue to retreat.
Three lines of defense were arranged outside the village alone, not to mention the careful arrangement of the village according to the terrain.
But not only that, in addition to the fortifications and the equipped military firearms, there were actually three cannons in the town, and I don’t know where they were transformed. They were fixed on a high place, tightly guarding several major roads leading to the town.
Starting from the next morning, reinforcements arrived one after another. Of course, it was not like Clermont Town, and there were all old, weak, sick and disabled, all of them were young and strong!
The first team had about a hundred people, and at noon, the second team came again, and the third team and the fourth team were still around. In the afternoon, the third team and the fourth team... were responsible for a total of six reinforcements. The total strength of Clermont Town was expanded to 1,200,300.
Among them, more than 900 young and strong, the elderly, weak, sick and disabled account for only a small part.
Nine hundred young men stationed in the defense line that had almost been arranged, filling the direction that seemed to be a little empty. In the evening, all reinforcements arrived and then more than a thousand people buried pots to make rice, which was really a grand view...
Of course, while the strength of Clermont Town continued to increase, the number of robbers and cavalry on the flat ground at the foot of the mountain continued to increase. From all directions, they were different in costumes, horses, and weapons. The only thing that was the same was the greedy look at Clermont Town on the mountain.
Before we knew it, it was late. A bright moon rose to the east, illuminating the earth as bright as day.
"Hahaha... These bandits didn't come to attack during the day, but they actually got together at night. How stupid is this!" Under the moonlight, the defenders on the mountain pointed at the foot of the mountain and laughed.
Siege is more difficult than defending the city, and it is even more difficult to attack the city at night. Even if the moon is as bright as daytime, this is not the real daytime after all.
The defenders laughed at the foot of the mountain, and from time to time, some people suggested: "Brothers, why not attack the mountain and steal the camp at night? These mobs, as long as they catch them off guard, they will definitely collapse."
"Shh!Shh!Shh!" Someone repeatedly stopped the group of people from talking nonsense, "If you want to steal the camp, you can steal it. Why do you say it so loudly? Are you afraid that the people below will not hear it?"
"Oh, yes!" A group of young soldiers suddenly realized and covered their mouths and silenced.
The defenders on the mountain were very motivated, and they guided the enemy to laugh proudly on the mountainside. The enemies at the foot of the mountain looked up at the camp on the mountain, from afternoon to night, their necks were sore when they looked up...
Chapter completed!
