The tall city walls, the blazing flames on top of the walls, the sounds of slashing and explosions, all make people feel refreshed during the long night.

Tieke Territory is the hereditary territory of the Duke of York, and Tieke Fortress should be the strongest and most powerful fortress in this area.

The patrolling iron knights were still hunting foreign corpse monsters. The huge fires outside the city were already full of corpses of all kinds, including monsters, locals, and refugees.

The process of entering the city was very smooth. At this juncture, as long as you can still breathe, you will probably know which camp you are in.

After entering the city, Lu Ping'an and his party immediately went to the local Church of the God of Travelers.

After confirming that everything was fine inside and that the clergy were still in action, Lu Pingping and his party breathed a sigh of relief.

Even if the Traveler God uses time and space teleportation, there are many prerequisites.

The divine power nodes (churches) on the earth are the key. It can only be transmitted between nodes, but the prerequisite for transmission, the source of the divine grace to transmit, must be a powerful priest.

As the God of Travelers, she has planted many divine power nodes on the earth, but most of them are abandoned churches like Shi Lailing... As a third-rate deity, her clergy and funds are limited. It is really unrealistic for every small and medium-sized city-state to operate a church run by clergy.

Those low-level nodes can only be used as "end points" but not as "".

Perhaps it is easier to understand with an inappropriate analogy. It is an "airport", which can only be run by the big lords of big cities, and the end point... is to give you a parachute and jump out by yourself.

"This is a token."

Lu Ping'an took out the golden holy emblem, which is the most advanced mark of the Holy Son. It is indeed a universal product for the tens of thousands of explorers in the East Kingdom.

This contains the authority and divine power of the "God of Travelers", which can extract the power of the node leyline, and with the help of the priest of the God of Travelers, perform a teleportation in the cathedral... This consumes It is obviously the foundation of the divine power of the Traveler God, and only the "sons of God" like the people of the East are qualified to use it.

After confirming that the teleportation could proceed normally, Lu Pingping and his party breathed a sigh of relief.

He was still in the mood to ask a few questions.

"Have any other Divine Scrolls left recently?"

"A group of Scrollmen has left. There are still many wounded among them. There are still two groups still in the city. They will send someone over to take a look every other day."

Hearing this, Lu Ping'an also asked for the contact information of the other two teams.

Since they are all "Scrollers" of the Traveler God, they should all be from the Eastern Kingdom, and they can at least communicate with each other.

There are various reasons for not leaving. The most likely reason is that the tickets were not sold out and the profits were not enough. This unexpected incident disrupted the original arrangements of too many people.

Now, this city probably gathers most of the surviving lords, nobles, wealthy businessmen, and powerful people in the border area.

"Are there any strong men locally?"

"There are quite a few, angel level... In the words of you divine scrollers, there are several strong men above the rule level."

The words of the Great Shepherd made people feel at ease.

After calculating the time, there were still nine days until the next wave of "ships" left this world.

After making sure that the way back was safe, Lu Ping'an finally had time to take care of the situation at hand.

This incident broke out too suddenly. Although there were some consultations along the way, many things still could not be finalized.

"Do most of the victims refuse to continue heading north..."

Such a result can be regarded as expected.

As far as Lu Ping'an is concerned, this seemingly mighty fortress is actually just that... When the whole world is about to collapse, this place is just a slightly larger stone.

If you really want to find a way out, you still have to go to the Holy Capital.

"Do you still want to go? The Holy City? It's too far..."

"Can't walk

It's impossible to reach..."

"If I have to go back to that darkness, I would rather die here..."

But obviously, some disaster victims don't think so.

Even though Lu Ping'an has sent knights and actively spread the "rumor" that "you can only be rescued if you go north," there are still only a handful of people willing to leave the city.

But the city gate to the north is always open.

Every day, some people throw themselves into the darkness again, trying to go to the north... The road of escape with no end in sight continues. Many warriors, wealthy businessmen, and nobles have taken the lead in jumping into it, and there are also many followers.

But more people choose to spend every day in this city fortress with lights.

They were frightened by the darkness and monsters outside, and were willing to do anything as long as they stayed within the city.

This border capital has become more crowded, messy, and dirty at a speed that is visible to the naked eye.

Refugees filled the streets, beggars filled the streets, corpses would be quickly cleared, and nearly dead refugees would be dragged away directly.

There is no need for anyone to hold up a "The End Is Coming" sign anymore, because it is already the end everywhere.

Lu Ping'an and his party are in the best situation. At least, the lords, nobles, and wealthy businessmen are all here. Resources such as gold, silver, materials, and food can be exchanged for some living space.

Lu Pingan had no intention of hiding anything. He disclosed a lot of internal information without causing panic.

"...Only by going north, to the Holy Capital, can there be hope. Here, it is still just slow death..."

Some people listened, and some people understood but pretended not to understand.

But soon, a group of people set out on the road. Some of them were knights of the Knights, but most of them were just ordinary people... Lu Ping'an chose to respect those knights who made choices, especially Deputy Benn. Head of the group.

"...I know there is little hope, but without me, it will be difficult for them to even reach the next city..."

The old knight said this and embarked on a new journey.

Lu Ping'an looked at his back with some helplessness. In the end, he could only give him his blessing.

"See you in the Holy City?"

"See you in the Holy City."

The old knight left, taking with him several knights who followed him and most of Shi Lai Ling's people who were still willing to travel at night.

And for those who stay in the local area and insist on not leaving, safe roads can only guarantee their food for this period of time... Considering the reality that a bowl of rice in the city is equivalent to a human life, this is already An extremely healthy act.

The lord Shi Lailing had completely disappeared from the eyes of the locals. He had completed the additional tasks given by Lu Ping'an, and he did not want to be buried with the locals.

The only thing left here is death? That's not necessarily the case. No one can be sure where the safe zone will be.

Moreover, even if the city was destroyed again, wouldn't there still be survivors?

In the past two days, this last fortress fell into a brief calm, but everyone knew that this was just a precursor to the storm.
