"How strong is the city lord of your capital? What kind of awakened person are you?" Lin Li asked.
"The specific strength and aspects are not clear, but 9S is probably the least, and the branch is roughly similar to Imam's. It is a spiritual awakener." It is indeed an answer close to the limit.
"Is it strong?"
"This is not nonsense! The city lord is the only leader of the capital. In the capital with simple folk customs outside, he likes to convince people with force. If you have seen him, you will feel his oppression." Ya Sheng showed a little heart palpitations. .
"Compared with Drewby?" Lin Li pointed to the hammock next to him.
"... How do I compare this," Yasheng sighed, "Both of them can crush me with just a few fingers. I have never seen their limits."
"But..." Yasheng then added, "I think Drubi will win. No matter how strong the city lord is, he also pays attention to common sense, but I can't see any common sense in your Warcraft..."
"Drewby, can you feel the imprint that this so-called city lord has planted in the minds of these guys?" Lin Li looked at Drewby who was still reading the newspaper.
Drewby nodded.
Surprised, Lin Li immediately asked, "Then can you untie it?"
But Drewby shook his head.
"You can't do it either?" Lin Li was a little surprised. Is this city lord so strong?
"If he cast it on me, of course I would be immune, but he cast it on these people, and the mark has been planted for a long time. I am not very good at helping others remove this kind of thing, and it is easy for me to have problems, and I am very Do less things that you are not 100% sure of.
But if Bugs Bunny or Jerry's second cousin came, they would have it easy. "
Closing the newspaper, Drewby explained slowly.
Jerry has two cousins, the eldest cousin Marsol and the second cousin Merlin. The eldest cousin has MAX strength and can knock down five hundred Toms with one punch. The second cousin is the most powerful magician. Tom can play around.
In the area where these two cousins live, cats are bullied.
Therefore, there is a joke in "Tom and Jerry" that Tom is the strongest in their cat family, but Jerry is the weakest in their mouse family.
And Bugs Bunny is even more powerful than Drew. It can be seen from his name (Bugs Bunny). The name is a BUG, and the homophony of Bugs comes from this.
The characteristic of this character is that he is a bit bit mean - Tom is a big bitch, unlike Drew who completes tasks in silence, Bugs Bunny is a fun bunny who likes to joke and tease others, and is very talkative among similar characters. many.
But Bugs Bunny's words have a certain charm. Although they are completely out of tune and just a big lie - people who listen to him will subconsciously do what he says.
Based on Drewbi's words, Lin Li guessed that one of the abilities that Bugs Bunny has mastered is advanced mental control.
"That's it." Lin Li was not very disappointed with this result, he just spread his hands and said.
Big brother just doesn’t do things that he’s not 100% sure of.
To be honest, Lin Li wasn't really interested in the capital or anything like that. He would always know the plan. There was also the Gray Beast to talk about. Lin Li hadn't asked Tom yet if he had made a deal with the Gray Beast.
"But what plan you are curious about, he has just thought about it in his mind, I can tell you." But Drubi said then.
Yasheng was shocked when he heard this. Can this dog read minds?
Lin Li chuckled lightly and came to Drew Bi: "This is my only purpose. You tell me and I will listen."
Before speaking, Drewby took a deep breath and frowned.
Lin Li's eyes narrowed slightly, and his expression became more solemn. The plan to put Drew in this state must be hiding a shocking secret.
Drewbi doesn't want to drain the water here?
So scary!
"It's so long, I don't want to say it." Drewby said, then took out a pen and paper, "I'll write it to you."
Lin Li: "..."
After a second, it turned out that he simply didn't want to talk.
Soon, Drewbi handed a note to Lin Li, and Lin Li took it in his hand and started reading.
Like Tom Jerry, Drewby also has the ability to be immersed in the scene. The moment he read the first line of text, a huge map appeared in front of Lin Li's eyes, with various cities marked on it.
Dawn City is in the upper left corner of the map, while the capital city is in the center of the map. The map is surrounded by a layer of gray, symbolizing the gray area.
"In order for the gray beasts of the Nansi tribe to better cultivate intelligent gray beasts and collect more human crystals, the capital city does not prevent the invasion of gray beasts from the north and west, and sends people to assist the invasion of gray mist in these two directions, inducing Total War."
Following this voice-over, gray fog began to move toward the interior of the map from the west and north.
The Dawn City on the edge soon fell into gray, symbolizing the rapid loss of the city gate.
…
"Capital City will lead some humans to attack the east and south, clean up the gray area in reverse, collect beast stones, and help friends improve their status within the gray beast group. At the same time, they will secretly intercept Central City and other cities to the north and west. The reinforcements will ensure the Nansi tribe’s speed in collecting human crystals.”
Several arrows appeared from the capital and extended to the southeast. One of the small arrows rushed towards Central City, a city not far from the capital that was about the same size as the capital.
…
"The war is expected to last for one year, and it will re-enter the recuperation stage after one year. Both sides will bear their own losses during the war. After the war is over, when trading human crystals, animal stones, and herbal materials, the friendly side must give priority and trade with the capital at a low price with a coefficient of 0.5. "Two big hands clasped together on the map.
The gray beast of the Nansi tribe reached an agreement with the capital.
Lin Li's mind broke away from the paper.
The content written on the paper was very detailed. It basically spelled out all the contents of the agreement. It also included a lot of detailed rules. Lin Li read them all.
Sure enough, the purpose of this collusion was the same as what I had speculated before. The capital city could harvest a large amount of animal stones for the awakened people to break through the bottleneck, as well as a large number of magical plants and materials. In exchange, they only needed to provide a small amount of human crystals. That's it.
And these human crystals do not even need to come from the awakened people who died in the war in the city. They can be obtained by hunting the awakened people in other cities.
All the benefits went to this city, and the people who died were all outsiders.
Feeling Lin Li's unkind gaze, Yasheng, the only sober person among the awakened ones, silently squirmed back.
"What kind of place is Central City? You don't want to deal with them?" Lin Li came to Yasheng with a steel rod and looked unkind. The name of this city. When he was working in the restaurant before, he vaguely heard the guests chatting. mentioned.
"A city that is also very powerful. On the surface, we are still good allies." Ya Sheng answered honestly.
It is self-evident what the real relationship is.
"Because of this, the details of the plan must not be told to anyone outside this city. Perhaps out of this consideration, the city lord has secretly placed a ban in our minds." Ya Sheng continued, seeming to still be thinking about it. The city lord excused himself.
How dare you say that? This is an act of adultery. In ancient times, you would have been imprisoned in a pig cage.
"Is this war started by you in order to weaken the strength of other cities and enhance the strength of your own city?" Lin Li laughed angrily. To him, there was no reason at all.
"That's right." After confirming that Lin Li had understood the contents of the transaction, Yasheng admitted with a broken heart.
"Okay, the questioning is over." Lin Li nodded.
"Huh..." Yasheng closed his eyes and breathed a long sigh of relief.
When he opened his eyes again, he looked at Lin Li who was swinging the steel rod, and the target was obviously his head, and he fell into a brief silence and sluggishness.
Then he squirmed backwards hastily and looked at Lin Li in horror: "What are you going to do?"
"I want to play golf." Lin Li explained. Seeing that Yasheng didn't understand, maybe he didn't know what golf was, so he explained in a more understandable language: "That is, I want to blow your head off."
"Why, why! Keeping our lives alive will be more useful to you, right?" Hearing that Lin Li's words were not a threat, but serious, Yasheng spoke quickly.
"What's the use? According to your point of view, the greatest use of human beings is not to kill people, take out the human crystals, and then trade them with gray beasts?" Lin Li asked with a smile.
"But you are not an awakened person at all, are you? You chose to use human crystals to trade with gray beasts before, but you were not interested in exchanging beast stones. As long as you had information, you gave Yu Nian the collected beast stones to absorb. You didn't care at all. This!" Because of nervousness, Yasheng spoke a little incoherently.
"Tom, get me a crown." Lin Li turned to Tom and said.
Tom nodded when he heard this, took out a crown and handed it to Lin Li, very obediently.
Lin Li put the crown on his head, then piled the human crystals on the ground on the crown, then leaned over to look at Yasheng, and asked with a smile: "Does it look good?"
"...It looks good." Although he didn't understand why Lin Li asked this, his belief in survival told Yasheng that agreeing with him at this time was the right choice.
"I think so too, so if you put your human crystal on it, it will look better." Lin Li raised the steel rod as he spoke.
"...No, no, no, I don't think it looks good!" Yasheng immediately changed his mind.
"What's the use of having something without aesthetics for you? You'd better die." Lin Li didn't stop.
"...I think the crown is quite beautiful. It would look even better without those extra human crystals!" Yasheng said with a sad face.
Lin Li was too lazy to answer. He arced and swiped the steel rod at Ya Sheng fiercely. However, due to the opponent's squirming, Lin Li, who did not deliberately aim, only hit his arm.
Yasheng's howl and the sound of his bones breaking came from Dawn City at night.
"I am willing to be your slave. Please spare my life." When death was imminent, Yasheng, who was still unable to use any abilities, was trembling all over. He bowed his head and prayed to Lin Li with his tied body.
"I am a 7S awakened person. My combat power is very impressive everywhere - except in front of your dog." He was crying with tears streaming down his face, and he had no image at all now with a face of Yin Yang Mediterranean on his face.
"The gray beasts don't dare invade our Dawn City. Their combat power is of no use to me." Lin Li wiped the blood on the steel rod with a drink and raised his eyes.
"But when we lose news, the city lord of the capital will definitely send people again! And they will definitely be stronger than ours. It may even be the city lord himself who goes out to fight. The city lord is really interested in you and knows what's going on this time. Then, he issued a death order, telling us to capture you alive."
Yasheng said quickly.
On top of Yasheng's team, it is really possible for the city lord to go out in person.
In fact, if it weren't for the city lord's order to capture him alive, Yasheng would have had the confidence to kill Lin Li as soon as he appeared.
Now I regret it.
Lin Li frowned slightly when he heard this, and that was true.
The location of Dawn City and its own specialness. This information has been displayed in front of the city lord of Dawn City. The annihilation of these teams will only make the city lord look at him more highly and become more curious. What Yasheng said is Very likely to happen.
But when the time comes that I don't have Drewby, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with this situation.
"Can you deal with the city lord if I keep you? Could it be that I threatened him with your life, but I threatened you with that owl. Do you still remember the outcome?" Lin Li looked at Yasheng sideways.
This group of people didn't care about the survival of their teammates.
"If you want to live, the most suitable situation is to migrate out of Dawn City. Then I, 7S, can protect you all the way, right? I'm very useful in dealing with gray beasts or humans along the way!
Remote cities and a weak wave, I can handle them all by myself!
The same goes for other people, their strength is actually quite good, that Yaliang, he is also a medical awakener, very precious! Yasheng immediately described how he and his teammates could be used.
Lin Li couldn't deny it. It was unrealistic to take thousands of people, most of whom were ordinary people, to migrate in the gray realm.
This is a city that Lin Li really cares about. The people he would take with him when escaping were probably only half a year - the remaining years without twenty years of Yangshou should not be counted as one.
But that Yara is worth considering for yourself.
Lin Li looked at Drewbi and said nothing.
Can the eldest brother teleport to the capital once and for all and give the city lord of that city a big armband? Or just destroy the city. Anyway, it doesn't sound like there are any good people from what I just said.
"You can do it, but I won't do it." Without Lin Li opening his mouth, Drewby responded slowly: "If I do this, the impact it will have on you in the end will be detrimental overall.
As for the reason, I can't tell you. Telling you the consequences afterwards is still inappropriate. "
"It's so metaphysical." Lin Li rubbed his chin and did not ask further questions, but he became a little curious about the capital.
There was no doubt that Drewbi could not beat him. This was Drewbi. At most, Lin Li thought that Drewbi might be trying to be lazy.
"But I can help you solve the problem you are considering in another way." Drewby put away the newspaper, jumped off the hammock, and drove his little broken car out of the city.
When Lin Li saw this, he immediately manifested a cockroach chariot and brought everyone on site with him.
Outside the city gate.
Lin Li looked at Drewby expectantly.
Drubi took out a drawing board and stuck it on the ground, then held a palette in one hand and a paintbrush in the other, holding them next to his eyes, as if measuring the proportions of Dawn City.
Drewby seemed to want to draw. Although Lin Li didn't understand the meaning of this, he just waited quietly - there must be a reason for him to do this.
Drewby started to write, and the brush was very fast. Sure enough, a city of dawn appeared vividly on the canvas.
When Drewby finished the painting, Lin Li applauded and approved.
"Exactly like the real thing..."
Lin Li's words stopped abruptly. He was about to raise his head for comparison, looking at the deep basin under the night.
Well, basin.
Behind the crater that Xing Lie had blasted, there was only an endless huge basin.
Dawn City is not spicy!
Not only is Shuguang City not spicy, the soil under Shuguang City is not spicy either!
Lin Li was still 'calm', and his toothy mouth was already wide enough to fit the head of a Split Man.
What about cities? What about a big city? Where have you gone?
"Drewby, Dawn City is now...in the painting?" Lin Li pointed to the scroll in front of Drewby in disbelief.
That's the only way to explain it.
Drewby nodded, casually, as if he had done something ordinary, his expression did not change at all. He carefully tore off the textured paper that had been stuck around when he was drawing, and then handed the painting to Lin Li.
"How to get in now? Get in?" Lin Li pointed at the scroll and said.
Drewby nodded: "Just touch it."
Lin Li touched the content of the scroll, and instantly, he entered the scroll and stood outside the city gate.
Within the scroll, Dawn City still stood, surrounded by no gray fog and surrounded by transparent walls. When Lin Li touched the exit of the scroll again, he appeared next to Drubi again.
"Yu Nian and the residents inside..." Lin Li asked.
"While alive, you can come and go freely."
"Do you think you have reduced the dimensions of Dawn City?"
"It doesn't matter. You can understand that this painting is the entrance to a small cave. The small cave contains such a space." Drewby explained.
"As expected of you, the god is such a small cave. It gives me the feeling of suddenly entering the world of cultivating immortals." Lin Li, who has seen too many storms and waves, can't help but rub his eyebrows now. He also needs to digest this situation. one time.
Now that they are all small? When the residents of Dawn City improve their strength, should they give feedback to themselves, the master of the cave? ——Lin Li's mind wandered.
It’s time to summon new permanent partners and enter new dungeons soon.
The new permanent partner is an old friend.
