"Your Excellency Tang Zhen, the leader of the cult...is Li Te dead?"
Na Gu stepped forward, helped Ai Li's mother up, and then asked Tang Zhen carefully.
For the sake of his family, Na Gu drew a clear line with Li Te, but was very concerned about his life and death.
In fact, he had an idea in his heart, that is, he hoped that Li Te would die quickly, so that he would feel less guilty.
If necessary, he wouldn't mind helping to send Li Te to hell.
This is a very strange phenomenon. When betrayers treat their former partners, they often become very cruel to prove that they have done nothing wrong.
"Based on your understanding of Li Te, would he die so easily?"
Tang Zhen shook his head. Although Li Te's known remains had been destroyed, who knew if he had other back-up plans?
Maybe it won't be long before this haunting guy suddenly appears.
However, as Tang Zhen's deployment was gradually completed, Li Te's threat became smaller and smaller. Even if he appeared again, it would not have much impact on Tang Zhen.
Na Gu's expression was a little gloomy. Although he wanted to hear the news of Li Te's death, his reason told him that it was impossible.
"Take the wounded back to the city lord's palace to recuperate, and let Ellie show more of her face at the same time, so as not to make people feel too abrupt when you pass the position when you are "attacked"."
Tang Zhen said to You Jiu with a smile, and then ordered the silent Na Gu to find some believers for help.
It didn't take long for a group of believers to arrive. They carried something similar to a stretcher and took all the injured to the city lord's palace.
As for Li Te's body, it had been burned directly, with no bones or residue left.
…
After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, Tang Zhen and You Jiu began to get busy. What they have to do now is to improve the strength of the believers as much as possible.
Having power in your hands means getting things done easily. Following Youjiu's order, the entire residents of Tianxu City were mobilized and officially entered a state of war.
However, all residents of Tianxu City must unconditionally accept the recruitment arrangements, and at the same time undertake tasks such as city defense and logistics.
After this order was issued, it caused quite a shock in Tianxu City. Although everyone knew that the demonic tide was coming, they did not want it to have such a big impact on themselves.
In fact, most of the residents wanted to wait and see what would happen, and did not really realize how terrible this catastrophe was.
You can't blame them for this. After all, their knowledge is limited, so it's normal for them not to feel the danger.
As for the believers of the Alarm Bell Church, although they know that the catastrophe is coming, they have never truly experienced the feeling of despair and powerlessness, and they also don’t know what they will face?
Perhaps in the entire Tianxu City, only Li Te truly understood the horror of the catastrophe, because he had experienced it himself.
Although there is resistance to the order, no one dares to disobey it. It should be noted that the believers of the Alarm Bell Church are merciless when dealing with those who resist.
According to the believers' thinking, the absolute authority of the Alarm Bell Church must be guaranteed, and no resistance is allowed.
However, there is no need to save those who disobey orders. They can directly kill them and save some supplies.
The seemingly cruel rules and concepts actually come from Li Te's experience and are passed on to the believers of the Alarm Bell Church.
Heavy rules are used in troubled times. It is precisely because of these strict rules that the Alarm Bell Church was able to completely control Tianxu City in a short period of time.
The entire Tianxu City was mobilized, and groups of men took tools and began to transform Tianxu City according to the drawings.
Tianxu City, which has a long history, was originally a military fortress, but due to various reasons, many places have been damaged.
With the current defense methods, it is impossible to resist monsters and must be upgraded immediately.
The first place to be transformed is naturally the bridge to the outside world. It allows the residents of Tianxu City to go out and also allows enemies from outside to come in.
According to Tang Zhen's order, the manufacturing factory prepared a batch of explosives and then transported them to the long bridge.
With a loud noise, this thousand-year-old bridge broke directly from the center.
Countless residents of Tianxu City witnessed this scene. They were shocked by the power of the explosives and were also extremely saddened by the destruction of the Long Bridge.
The beautiful scenery of the long bridge lying across the clear water in autumn may never be seen again, but can only remain in memory.
The incident of blowing up the bridge also made the residents of Tianxu City realize that the situation may be far more serious than they thought.
In addition to blowing up bridges, various underwater obstacles have also begun to be set up in the lakes around Tianxu City to prevent enemies from sneaking in from underwater.
At the bottom of the water around Tianxu City, there were originally dam-like things that separated Tianxu City from the lake.
However, due to years of disrepair and deliberate destruction by fishermen, those underwater dams have long since disappeared.
Now that it is being restored again, it will definitely not be able to restore its original scale. Firstly, time is limited, and secondly, there is a lack of sufficient materials.
During the construction process, we also encountered a large number of underwater monsters. From the looks of it, we knew that they were obviously mutated fish after being infected.
Various problems make the repair work more and more difficult, and the progress is very slow.
It is estimated that it may not be completed until the next monster attacks.
Tang Zhen didn't care very much. It should be noted that Tianxu Lake itself is an excellent defensive barrier. Now adding some obstacles is just the icing on the cake.
If you want to improve your defense capabilities, you still need to find ways to deal with weapons and equipment and personnel training. As long as you complete these two points, you can basically guarantee that you will have no worries in the early stage.
Even if there are hundreds of thousands of Tianxu City residents queuing up to be killed by monsters, it will still take a certain amount of time.
This was the main reason why Tang Zhen snatched control. Controlling the city meant having a lot of cannon fodder.
Although it sounds cruel, it is the truth.
Being cannon fodder is also a kind of luck. At least you have a chance to become stronger and have more possibilities to survive.
When they are armed and have the ability to fight against monsters, it is not certain who will kill whom.
What's more, when the indigenous people hunt monsters, their own strength will also increase accordingly. As long as they make reasonable arrangements and overcome the early difficulties, the indigenous people's strength will become stronger and stronger.
Compared with the last catastrophe, this generation of aboriginal people is obviously much luckier.
As the long bridge was blown up and the work of setting up lake obstacles began, the renovation of Tianxu City itself was also underway.
The two nearby peaks originally had two ways of access, relying on boats and underground city passages respectively.
After Tang Zhen's inspection, he ordered dozens of ropeways to be built for rapid delivery of items.
Batch after batch of supplies were transported, forts began to appear on the two peaks, and small trebuchets and other equipment also continued to appear on the platform.
Once the war begins, the two peaks will assist the main city and attack the monsters.
Because the gap in weapons and equipment is too large, the manufacturing factory is already operating at full capacity, but even so, it still cannot meet the demand.
As a last resort, a new manufacturing factory could only be established. In addition to manufacturing guns and weapons, it was also responsible for manufacturing rune airships.
In addition to these things, food reserve work is also in full swing and is regarded as a top priority.
The food consumption of hundreds of thousands of people is terrible, but the food reserves in Tianxu City can only last less than ten days.
If this problem cannot be solved, there will be no need for monster attacks, and Tianxu City will collapse without any attack!
