421 Hot Scenery (2)

“Drink, drink, drink!”

“Lin Ye is bountied!”

Blackie covered the place where it had been hit by the Great Sage and asked in confusion,

“What do you mean by wanted? I’ve never learned it before!”

“I don’t know either…”

“Then why did you hit me?!”

Blackie was furious.

The Great Sage shrugged and pointed at the Hong brothers.

“In any case, from their expressions, it doesn’t seem to be a good thing.”

“Then should we tell Lin Ye? He seems to be here now.”

“Tell him, tell him.”

“Alright!”

Then, Blackie and the Great Sage sent a message to Lin Ye in their minds as they pointed at the Hong brothers.

Then, he received Lin Ye’s answer.

Moreover, he even asked the two of them to stop the Hong brothers.

Therefore, when Hong Zhijie and Hong Zhijun were pulled back by Blackie with brute force, they still had puzzled expressions.

“Dojo Master Lin really said that?”

Blackie nodded.

“If you don’t believe me, you can call him and ask!”

Blackie pointed at the communicator in their hands.

The Hong brothers looked at each other and shook their heads.

“However, we have to leave here first.”

With that said, the two of them looked at Chen Yun.

Chen Yun immediately made a zipping gesture in front of his mouth.

Now that he had chosen to side with the Hong brothers, he could only go all the way.

Otherwise, even if he went to rely on Wang Zhi (Feng Yu), it would be useless.

Moreover, he did not fancy these two people.

He kept feeling that these people were a little inhumane.

It was true that ordinary soldiers were often used as cannon fodder.

However, if he took the initiative to be cannon fodder frequently, it meant that the higher-ups were in the wrong.

Therefore, Chen Yun’s stand was very firm this time.

He had never seen it before. He really had not seen it before. He did not know…

—————————————————-

On the other side, when the Hong brothers returned to Jiangzhou City from Clear Spring City with a group of army soldiers, they discovered that the scene here was completely different from Clear Spring City.

Qingquan City was still immersed in the impact of the beast tide ~

There were not many pedestrians on the street, and it was cold everywhere.

In the end, as soon as he returned to Jiangzhou City, it was as if… he had arrived in a downtown area.

Moreover, the two of them could directly sense that this was much more lively than before.

In particular, in the square at the east gate, the two brothers also saw many people strolling around the square with their beasts.

Some people would even compare two seemingly identical beasts from time to time to see who was developing faster.

They looked like an old father who was comparing children.

“Brother, did we come to the wrong place?”

Hong Zhijie shook his head, his eyes filled with confusion.

“I don’t know!”

After the two of them brought Lin Ye’s two beasts into the city from the east city gate, they pulled a mercenary with an Ironback Pig over.

“Let me ask you something.”

“Sir, go ahead!”

“What’s wrong with Jiangzhou City? Why are there so many people? Moreover, why does everyone seem to have beasts in their hands?”

Looking at the man in front of him who was the commander of the army, the mercenary swallowed the words he was about to say.

After all, as long as it was a normal person living in Jiangzhou City, they would definitely know about this.

That was why he felt that this question was very stupid.

However, considering this master’s identity, the mercenary still asked carefully,

“Have you… not been back for a long time?”

Hong Zhijie thought for a moment and nodded.

“It’s been almost a month ~”

“No wonder. Let me tell you, too many big things have happened in the past month!”

Then, perhaps thinking that bragging in front of the commander of the army was the only chance he had in his life, the mercenary directly told him everything that had happened in Jiangzhou City about beasts starting from the beast tide.

Although Hong Zhijie knew bits and pieces of information, he was still a little shocked after hearing it completely.

In particular, this mercenary was very eloquent.

It was as if the Green Dragon had told him something. Hong Zhijie felt that he was definitely at a loss for words.

Unfortunately, he was uncultured and could only say, “Impressive, awesome”.

“In other words, the city is filled with preliminaries for this Beast Tamer Tournament now?”

“Yes.”

Looking at the mercenary in front of him, Hong Zhijie rewarded him with a level two crystal core and brought people into the city.

The information he had received today was a little too much. He had to think about it carefully.

First, Lin Ye was wanted in Qingquan City. He thought that Lin Ye had encountered something and actually came to Qingquan City to cause trouble.

It was clearly nothing when he came with Su Hongcheng that day.

In the end, after returning with such guesses, he saw the bustling Jiangzhou City again. Coupled with all kinds of news, he directly could not deal with Hong Zhijie.

After bringing his subordinates back to the army base, Hong Zhijie met the only general with real power in Jiangzhou City, Liu Gang.

“Yo, you’re back?”

“How’s things in Qingquan City?”

Looking at Liu Gang, Hong Zhijie nodded.

“Not bad. The situation has been stabilized.”

“However…”

Liu Gang looked at the hesitant Hong Zhijie and waved his hand with a smile.

“Just say it directly. What’s there to worry about?!”

Hong Zhijie nodded, cleared his throat, and voiced his guess.

“I feel that the army in Qingquan City seems to be using the beast tide to do something.”

“Many areas below the city wall are surrounded. It’s not easy for me to go in and investigate.”

“However, they definitely did not try their best when they were guarding the city.

Hong Zhijie said this very firmly and even gritted his teeth.

Liu Gang did not feel anything about this.

“Hehe, Feng Yu’s methods ~”

“It’s normal.”

“Don’t worry about this for now. Go prepare for that Beast Tamer Competition!”

Hong Zhijie: “Ah?!”

Looking at the surprised Hong Zhijie, Liu Gang smiled.

“What’s wrong? Is there a problem?”

“This is a mission! There’s a mission requirement!”

Hong Zhijie subconsciously saluted. Then… he still looked at Liu Gang in confusion.

“General, I… just returned. I don’t know the exact situation of this competition!”

Liu Gang smiled and shook his head.

“You don’t have to understand. You just have to get a ranking.”

“Among the rewards this time, the army is determined to obtain one.”

Hearing Liu Gang say this, Hong Zhijie was immediately interested.

“What?”

“The candidate for the dojo master of the Beast Taming Dojo branch.”

Hong Zhijie was speechless.

Looking at Hong Zhijie’s puzzled expression, Liu Gang scolded angrily,

“Why don’t you say that you’re still a team leader?”

“If your brain was half as smart as Wang Zhi’s back then, I would have sent you to Qingquan City!”

“Otherwise, how could we let that sinister old thing Feng Yu pluck the peaches?”

Clearly, Liu Gang was still quite concerned about Feng Yu’s escape.

“Hehe, I just… can’t bear to part with your leader ~”

“Get lost!”

After Liu Gang scolded with a smile, he said seriously,

“Zhijie ~”

“This matter is really quite important.”

“You’ve been to Qingquan City recently, so you might not know…”

“Yes, I just came back and asked… Uh…”

Seeing Liu Gang’s unfriendly gaze, Hong Zhijie immediately scratched his head.

“Hehe, well, actually, that mercenary didn’t explain it very clearly.”

Liu Gang ignored Hong Zhijie’s show and directly said the deeper things he had seen.

“In any case, the current situation is that the beast will become the master of Jiangzhou City!”

When Hong Zhijie heard this, his pupils constricted slightly.

“Don’t doubt me. I’m not exaggerating at all.”

“For ordinary people, the cost is relatively low, but the benefits are extremely high. It’s enough to make them go crazy.

“It’s true that our army can protect civilians when the beast tide comes.”

“However, to be fair, the ones who suffered the most casualties in every beast tide are still civilians.

“Except this year!”

“Many civilians saw the beast tide this time. Even ordinary people can rely on themselves to survive in danger after obtaining beasts.

“It’s not relying on the army or the Mutant Association to save them.

“This is the key to why beasts can spread so quickly in Jiangzhou City.

“As for this competition, it only sped up the process slightly.
