Chapter 1,489 Defense Preparations, Castle Meeting(2/3)
This place has been closed after receiving the order a few days ago.
There are several gates of different sizes in each direction of the giant city.
Since the Marquis ordered the city to be closed a few days ago, the main city gates have been closed.
One or two small city gates will be opened during limited time periods every day to allow limited access inside and outside the city.
No matter entering or exiting, they are subject to strict scrutiny, and every open gate has at least one legend sitting on it, which means that Dagalisini has come up with a lineup that is at the bottom of the box.
Zong Shen and Colby landed outside the main city gate.
There are traces of the market nearby, and they seem to have been demolished in the past few days.
So it looks a little desolate.
There were defenders inside and outside the city gate, and there were patrol troops outside.
There are crossbowmen waiting on the high battlements.
Even the giant crossbows and magic energy cannons nearby slowly turned around and aimed at Zong and Colby.
Before arriving, Zong Shen put away Hamis in advance.
After all, the Dark Nightmare of Hell is a dark creature, belonging to the evil lineage, and has a greater impact on the indigenous people. Since he plans to talk to Marquis Ekmeleddin first, there is no need to bring Hamis with him.
The two of them just fell from the sky, facing the vigilant eyes of the garrison soldiers.
Because they landed outside the city, although the soldiers were extremely vigilant, they did not act rashly.
Colby unleashed the aura of a legendary powerhouse.
This is one of the reasons why soldiers feel afraid.
"I came here at the invitation of the Marquis of Ekmeledin."
"Please go report it."
Zong Shen landed firmly and patted Colby's shoulder gently.
The latter immediately calmed down his momentum.
Then he shouted loudly to the city gate defenders more than a hundred meters away.
Speaking of which, Zong Shen was indeed invited by Baron Hisham Conway.
The baron also followed the order and left.
It would not be a lie to say that the Marquis invited him directly.
Hearing this, the garrison officer at the city gate said quickly.
"Sorry, please stop and wait."
"I will report it immediately!"
With martial law regulations in place, these soldiers were loyal to their duties and did not slack off in the slightest.
Zong Shen nodded slightly, and then stood there with Colby.
He looked carefully at Dagalisni's garrison.
It can be seen that the army here is highly disciplined and every garrison is neatly groomed.
Both order and discipline are very good, and the arrangement of the garrison is also in order.
It took about a quarter of an hour to wait.
The thick city gate slowly opened under the flickering light of runes.
The young officer who went forward to report came out of the crack in the door, and he hurriedly greeted him with Baron Hisham.
Among them, Baron Hisham even had a flattering smile on his face.
"Your Excellency, I didn't expect you to come so soon."
"The Marquis is ill and is resting in the castle. He is unable to leave the city to greet you. Please forgive me."
Baron Hisham bowed.
Zong Shen smiled and waved his hands to show that he didn't care.
"I come with sincerity."
He said calmly as always.
In fact, it was the same, but he brought not only sincerity, but also an army of millions.
"Please come with me."
Seeing this, Hisham also saved the meaningless conversation and immediately led the way.
After entering the first city gate, there were already chariots pulled by dragon-scaled horses waiting here.
"Now we will take a carriage and horse to the castle teleport point."
Hisham explained patiently.
Zong Shen and Colby did not speak. They followed his guidance and entered the carriage under the greetings of the waiter.
This carriage uses finely forged alloy as the wheel axle material, and the main structure also has mithril corners and rune imprints, making it look extremely strong.
This gives the carriage itself an orange legendary quality.
But after the two got on the carriage, the entire carriage still sank significantly.
It can be seen that Zong Shen and Colby's weight has reached an alarming level.
The stronger the body, the greater the weight.
This is almost an unwritten law in the Endless Continent.
Hisham waited until the two of them got into the car, and then got into the light carriage leading the way.
Pass through the garrison area of the outer circle and enter the urban streets of the third circle.
The area about one or two kilometers along the inside and outside of the city tower is the garrison area.
This is also the first difference between Dagallisni and Lentax in his defense.
Zong Shen closed his eyes. Through the strategy module, he knew that at this moment, most of the legendary powerhouses in the city had been summoned to the castle to stand by.
Obviously, Marquis Ekmeledin also had doubts about them.
The limited communication between the two parties was originally based on a chain of suspicion.
Therefore, Zong Shen was not surprised by this situation.
And the Marquis's move to gather legendary powerful men was not taken lightly by him.
Even if Gurgat is not summoned, he and Colby alone can defeat the entire Dagarisni legendary powerhouse.
However, there are still one or two troublesome characters among them.
Among them is Aya, a woman with big waves.
Of course, the so-called tricky is only relative.
Strength is the best ballast stone, and Zong Shen is so calm at this moment.
…
It took almost twenty minutes for Zong Shen and Colby to arrive at the Marquis Castle through a specific short-distance teleportation array.
It is equally spacious and covers a large area.
Skipping those meaningless luxurious sights, they finally entered one of the living rooms of the castle, where Marquis Ekmeledin was waiting with several confidants.
Most of the legendary strong men he summoned were ambushed in other parts of the castle.
It's not accurate to call them an ambush. After all, the purpose of the Marquis calling them here was not to be "axemen", but just a preventive measure.
The Marquis became suspicious of Zong Shen and his sudden rise in territory.
But we will not offend the other party without taking action.
Both sides are like hunters holding guns.
The stage of trial and confrontation is essential.
After the two parties met, the Marquis coughed a few times before standing up with an apologetic expression.
"Ahem..."
"Welcome, young lord."
Zong Shen stretched out his hand and shook it.
"Your Majesty, the Marquis, is too kind."
"I heard that you are ill. I don't know what the problem is."
The indigenous people of Endless Continent also have diseases.
Their diseases are far more severe than those on Earth.
