Dead of night.
Under the city wall, the originally hard black soil had long since turned into blood mud more than a foot thick.
As the Fifth Grade stopped, the two sides who had been fighting for more than twenty-four hours finally came to a truce.
In a corner that couldn't be seen, Tang Wen stood up and stretched.
"Work has started, work has started."
Tang Wen stood up. Only Hu Yun and Hu Qi were around him, and the others were not there.
After several flashes, they appeared at the edge of the city wall.
He took out the pig-bristle brush that he had prepared long ago and carefully applied the red powder soaked in water to the wall.
Hu Yun and Hu Qi followed behind with saltpeter and water, and applied a thick layer of ice to the wall painted with red powder.
This section was the city wall that the Huang family was responsible for. Tang Wen randomly selected several locations, smeared them with sacred tree powder, and covered them with ice on the outside.
There is no sunshine underground, and the temperature is not high. Freezing is a common occurrence.
When the siege begins tomorrow, the ice on the wall may not melt.
However, once close to the city wall, the devil's nose, which is sharper than a dog, will definitely smell something.
At that time, there will be a crazy attack.
As soon as the ice breaks, the demons around will smell it and attack the Huang family's defensive area.
After painting the city wall, only a small bottle of sacred tree powder was used.
Tang Wen came to the bottom of the city wall again, followed the root of the wall, and started digging holes.
Three meters, five meters, ten meters...
We dug a full thirty meters down to the bottom of the wall.
"No wonder this wall is so strong that even a big siege devil can't knock it down."
The wall is made of heavy and dense black gold stone, and its thickness is astonishing. It would be surprising if a flesh-and-blood body could collapse against it.
Hu Qi tested the hardness with his claws and suddenly said: "How can such a hard stone be cut so neatly?"
Tang Wen was stunned: "You can't do it?"
Tiger Claw exerted slight force: "It's a bit difficult."
The few people did not dwell on this problem. Tang Wen dug several deep pits along the root of the wall and buried slender pipes.
Inside the tube is sacred tree powder mixed with sand, soil and sawdust.
Seal the top of the tube with ice.
If the devil smells the smell, he will dig down like crazy.
When the Huang family saw that they would fight tooth and nail to prevent them from entering the city.
"Is this enough?" Hu Yun reminded: "The two sides fought for seven or eight days without a few breaks. What if they don't attack the city tomorrow?"
Without attacking the city, the demon would not be able to find the powder.
The Huang family on the top of the city was cleaning the walls and the battlefield, and using their mental power to sweep through them, there was a 80% chance that they would find problems.
Tang Wen nodded: "We have to find a way to make sure they attack the city tomorrow."
Hu Qi raised his paw and pointed at the city wall: "Tomorrow we will be invisible on top. If the demon comes, everything will be easy. If not, just stand on top and sprinkle powder."
"That's a way. When the time comes, you can control the wind and let the scent of the sacred tree float into the demon camp."
The two of them were silent for a while and looked up.
On the defensive wall, the searchlight burned brightly.
The demon's camp was pitch dark.
The wind blew through it, bringing with it a fishy stench that could not be resolved.
"It's not safe." Tang Wen frowned: "Why don't we go over there overnight and kill a bunch of demons."
"Okay." This suggestion suited Hu Yun's temper.
Moreover, it is also an aboveboard conspiracy.
The demon clan has outstanding advantages and disadvantages.
Being brave and not afraid of death also means that you can't bear hatred.
If tomorrow it is discovered that a member of the same race was killed by a sneak attack at night, even if the demon leader does not want to attack, the demons will not be willing.
"good."
Hu Yun turned around and wanted to touch the camp, but Tang Wen grabbed his belt: "It's too early. Let's try it inside our house first."
"try what?"
Tang Wen did not explain.
Two people and one tiger came to a secluded place.
Tang Wen casually took out two blankets and let them sleep on them: "When you fall asleep, try to see if you can still detect my concealment skills."
The two of them lay down, breathing evenly for a short while.
Tang Wen stood a hundred meters away, opening up the gauze-like illusory night and covering them both.
Maybe it was hidden, but it didn't mean there was any danger.
One person and one tiger, as top masters, did not wake up.
After thinking about it, Tang Wen took out his long sword and pointed at Hu Qi from a distance and made several gestures.
Bai Hu opened his eyes leisurely, whined, and stretched.
Hu Yun woke up immediately.
The two of them worked together for a while, and felt that the plan was feasible, so they headed towards the dark Demon Camp overnight.
There are only a few demons with sane minds among the demons.
Tang Wen and the others touched the outside of the demon camp. The first thing they saw was the cannon fodder demons crawling on the ground. They made up the majority and were the weakest.
As for their sleeping state, they dug pits in the tent, buried half of their bodies in sand, and slept directly without needing anything else.
Tang Wen suspected that if it weren't for the purpose of guarding against prying eyes from the city wall, they might not even need a tent and just sleep in the dirt!
Tang Wen had no interest in killing these miscellaneous soldiers unless he could kill them in large numbers and gain experience one by one.
They continued to touch inside, and the demon inside was slightly stronger, a kind of demon with a blood-red body.
The head is large, smooth and hairless, and the limbs are not very developed.
Usually he doesn't walk, but relies on his mental power to lift himself up and float on the ground.
Needless to say, they are better at mental strength.
Opening a corner of the tent, there were straw mats inside, with big-headed red devils sleeping on the mats huddled together.
They are not too crowded, they use floats to get in and out, and they don’t need to worry about stepping on their companions.
Tang Wen stepped lightly and took a glance, holding his breath. There were forty demons sleeping in one tent.
In subzero weather, they didn't even have bedding and no one to snore on.
The whole camp was extremely quiet.
If their bellies and chests weren't still rising and falling regularly, it would have been like a tent full of dead demons.
Tang Wen withdrew his concealment technique, covering only three of himself, and continued to touch inside.
The big-headed red devil has a combat power close to the seventh level.
Further forward is the residence of the sixth-grade demon.
Their treatment was not much better. Eight demons lived in a tent. I wonder if it was safer to sleep like this.
A sixth-level demon with a tall body and an ugly appearance like a gorilla.
Only eight demons filled the big tent.
"Kill them."
Going forward, there is a high probability that there will be a fifth-grade existence, and Tang Wen doesn't want to take the risk.
After all, this is a demon's camp. Once discovered by the opponent, it's hard to say whether he can use Shunpo to escape.
If he is attacked by the spirit magic and cannot withstand it, then he will have to rely on Hu Yun and Hu Qi to desperately break through.
The two peak fifth-grade men were not afraid, but they didn't try to show off.
Invisibility enveloped the tent.
Tang Wen drew out the Rare Object Sword and [One Line of Sky] took action, but there was no sound.
There were demons on the ground, and he killed them seven or eight times at random.
The flashing experience panel told him that all eight demons were dead.
It’s just that I can’t tell how much experience I gained.
[Yixiantian, Grandmaster (12000/12000)] is stuck at the current experience level.
More experience is needed to beat the levels.
Because the short sneak attack was conducted under the stealth spell, the stealth spell experience increased.
[Visualization Martial Arts, Stealth Technique, Grandmaster (7719→7799/18000)]
As the killing continued, Tang Wen pulled the tent not far next door into the range of the concealment technique.
He rushed in like a wolf and tiger, and chopped all the demons with several knives. Blood spurted out and wet the tent.
"The smell of blood is too great."
Seeing that Tang Wen still wanted to continue charging, one man and one tiger spoke to dissuade him.
"What should we do? How many have we killed so far?" Tang Wen was not satisfied with killing, mainly because he had not gained much experience yet.
He planned to break the barrier of [One Line Sky] today.
"I can use a wind pressure air mask to temporarily cover up the smell. But the problem is that the moment we leave, the presence of the air mask will be discovered immediately. There is still a risk of being caught by the tail."
Hu Yun suggested: "How about doing it again, how about the huge rocks falling from the sky? With such a big movement, the demons will definitely retaliate tomorrow. No, they will retaliate overnight."
Meteorite falling from the sky?
Tang Wen looked in front of him and saw that the devil's camps were divided into eight places.
One by one, the eight defensive positions on the mountain city wall are mapped.
Tang Wen looked at the location, nodded, and withdrew.
The death of more than a dozen sixth-grade people is already a very serious provocation.
But the killing was not pleasant, Tang Wen still wanted to cause a meteorite to fall from the sky.
Not long after the two and one tiger left, there was a commotion in the demon camp.
The devil was accidentally attacked and died.
The three of Tang Wen were floating high in the dark sky, watching from a distance.
The commotion in the camp quickly subsided.
The demon leader did not choose to fight overnight. He thought that this was done by someone on the city wall.
Therefore, the guards on the city wall must be prepared for night fighting.
They attacked the city angrily at this time, facing a prepared human army and unable to take advantage.
"It's quite bearable."
"We'll see how they can bear it when the boulders come down."
Tang Wen: "Let's go back and bring the others with us."
After agreeing, Hu Yun looked at the illuminated city wall: "That third son of the Huang family, haven't you wanted to kill him for a long time? Do you want to take advantage of the chaos?"
"Here, let's see the opportunity."
He not only wants to kill Huang San, but also wants to kill most of the Huang family's backbone. When the time comes, the Huang family will naturally know that they should put their tail between their legs.
"If the Huang family is scared, should we help them defend the city?"
Tang Wen shook his head indifferently: "No help, the city lord hasn't even come down yet."
Hu Yun and Hu Qi felt a chill in their hearts; yes, there is a fourth-grade city lord in the mountain city who is in bad condition!
Even if the condition is not good, it is still a fourth grade.
Tang Wen thought about his thoughts carefully: "I still need to tell them about the plan to bombard the demon camp later."
"Tell the Huang family?"
"Tell the Giant Rock Martial Arts School that we have been looking for opportunities to sneak attacks recently. The time is right tonight, let them be mentally prepared. Don't be too surprised."
After saying that, the two of them turned around and came to the wall defended by the Giant Rock Martial Arts Hall.
After crossing the city wall and exploring inside the wall for a while, Tang Wen saw a familiar deputy director. After thinking about it, he didn't show up either. He grabbed a piece of brick to fill the gap, carved a line of words on it, and threw the brick over.
"boom!"
"who?"
No one answered.
The deputy director picked up the bricks and his expression changed slightly.
Soon, the news that the Demon Camp might be attacked tonight spread throughout the defense zones.
The senior executives of various companies who finally had a rest were woken up from their sleep and were quite angry.
Hearing that Tang Wen might have a sneak attack on the demon camp, he immediately became excited again.
It's just that the person who brought the news didn't show up or discuss with them, which made them a little confused.
Wouldn't it be more effective if we agreed on a specific time and gave each defensive team more time to prepare and cooperate internally and externally?
Huang Laosan's thin face was smiling: "Don't forget, the Shadow Demon came in not long ago."
"This? What do you mean?"
Huang San: "Haha, it's hard to say who sent the letter yet!"
Ship boss: "That's right, everyone should be more alert, maybe it's the devil's conspiracy."
"Besides, now that we are trapped and exhausted, how can we still have the energy to rush out?"
"That's right. You all know what's going on with our boat gang. Hey! It's absolutely impossible for us to rush out with a black eye."
The two of you talk to each other.
What was originally good news has turned into something that puts everyone in danger.
The corners of the lips of the father and daughter of the Black Water Gang twitched into sneers.
These two people were not only alarmist, but also wanted to erase Tang Wen's achievements.
They said this, even if Tang Wen made some noise tonight, everyone would think that he was not doing a good job, causing everyone to be on tenterhooks for half the night.
If Tang Wen's victory was smaller, the original credit would be even less complained about.
Before they could speak, the head of the Chen family frowned: "Okay! We will find out tonight whether it is the news from Mr. Tang. Since he did not discuss it with us, it means that we do not need to cooperate. Just pass on the order."
Huang San sneered: "What's the order? The demons may be attacked tonight. Everyone, please stop sleeping and wait to watch the excitement?"
The captain laughed a few times.
Hall Master Zhao pointed to the direction outside the city and said in a deep voice: "Maybe the noise is very loud, so brothers don't be alarmed when they hear it."
The ship boss wants to say something more.
Under the gazes of the other leaders, they did not say anything after all.
Tang Wen didn't know the reaction of these people, and he didn't care if he knew it. The sneak attack on the demon was a temporary decision.
In addition, he had other motives and it was impossible to discuss it with them.
As usual, two strange beasts, the Thunder Rock Snapping Turtle and the Stone Dragon, stayed behind in the underground palace in the Leiyu Mining Area to guard Sanniang and the two girls Lin Shi who were in seclusion.
Seeing that Tang Wen didn't intend to take her, Sanniang didn't say anything, but secretly made up her mind to go back and stabilize the position of the Chamber of Commerce, and start retreating immediately.
Shi Long simply rubbed a few diamond-shaped boulders and handed them to Tang Wen to take away.
The group repeated their old tricks.
Except for Xia Qingge, who looked surprised, the others were familiar with the road and pushed the boulder as fast as lightning.
Swoop down quickly.
On the ground, it was pitch black at first.
Then I could vaguely see dense black spots.
In another blink of an eye, the tent was almost visible.
Tang Wen immediately stopped his hand and his spiritual power surged out.
Unlike the last time, we evacuated when we were close to the ground.
This time, he was prepared to hide until the end.
A height of several thousand meters, but only a moment.
The tip of the boulder hit the ground.
boom!
Tang Wen was shocked, his mental power was disconnected uncontrollably, and his concealment technique was interrupted.
Three flaming boulders appeared out of thin air on the ground and continued to burrow underground.
The surrounding tents were crushed into pieces by the first wave of air.
The rumbling vibrations resounded throughout the earth.
The fifth-level demon noticed something was wrong seconds ago.
But the time was too short, it was only enough for them to escape, and there was nothing else they could do!
"Roar!"
The demon leader saw Tang Wen and his party in the air.
not good!
The hatred was brought to him.
What the demon hated most at this moment was not the guards on the city who had been fighting for many days, but Tang Wen and the others.
But there is no point in hating.
Tang Wenqiang braced himself and became invisible again.
The demon camp was in chaos. The demon's food storage area was on fire. It was too late to put out the fire, and there was no demon chasing after him.
