Chapter 4: No Retreat
Captive...
Li Fan knew!
I knew it would be like this!
He had never thought about the issue of captivity before. However, at that time, he did not dare to think deeply, nor did he dare to tell these residents of Sunset City who did not know any conspiracies in his heart!
I was very afraid that the news would affect his peaceful life after it spread.
I don’t know who this city lord Ren learned from, but he actually noticed this.
"Then...what is going to happen now?"
"After the city lord and I worked together to severely damage the monster leader, the monster group quickly rushed forward. After rescuing their leaders, the monster group did not continue to attack the city, and quickly escorted their leaders out of the battlefield. Today's Sunset City can be said to be within a radius of five miles, there is not even a monster..."
The disappearance of the monster group should have been a great news, but at this moment, it was extremely harsh to Li Fan's ears.
Because this happens to further confirm their speculation from the side.
Monsters are wise!
Monsters can be controlled!
In other words, if the monster group wanted to break through Sunset City, they would have done it long ago, instead of sieging Sunset City for so many years as before...
"Then...what should I do now? Since you plan this incident with the city lord, will there be no backup solution to this problem?"
Zhang Lei's heart was shocked.
However, he quickly pretended to be calm and patted Li Fan on the shoulder and comforted him: "Don't worry, if those beasts attack again, I will defend Sunset City even if I fight to the death, and I will definitely not hurt you! And, look!"
As he said that, a silver treasure book appeared in Zhang Lei's palm, and he slapped his chest and said confidently: "I have advanced to a silver warrior! Even if the leader of the monster really calls a stronger helper, he may not be my opponent!"
The bronze treasure book, the silver treasure book, the golden treasure book... are the cultivation system of this world.
Any race wants to become stronger, it cannot be separated from the promotion of the treasure book.
Being able to awaken the treasure book can be said to be considered a Xin Yuner who is one in a million.
Not to mention the promotion from the Bronze Book to the Silver Book. In the nearly 100-year historical record of Sunset City, there is not even a single one!
However, when Li Fan saw the silver treasure book in Zhang Lei's hand, he was not only not happy, but instead looked panicked!
He knew the method of upgrading the treasure book.
The treasure book has three star slots.
If you want to advance, you have to fill these three star slots.
The first star slot represents spiritual power.
The second star slot represents physical strength.
The first two star slots can be filled with their own training or resources. After filling, they will further enhance the corresponding strength.
As for the third star slot...
If you want to fill the third star slot, you can only swallow it!
Devouring treasure book!
This is also the reason why Li Fan is afraid!
If Sunset City is really kept by the enemy, they have maintained the treasure holders of Sunset City within 3 before. Their greatest purpose is undoubtedly to give Sunset City hope of survival while also harvesting the treasure!
Just the Bronze Book, the other party has already spent so much effort to send a large group of monsters to stay outside the Sunset City for many years.
What's more, Zhang Lei is now a silver treasure book?
Wouldn't it become more popular?
Li Fan asked: "The treasure book you devour is..."
"It's the city lord."
Li Fan's face turned paler.
He had roughly thought of how the city lord and Zhang Lei designed to severely damage the monster leader...
There are two ways to peel off the treasure book.
1. Kill the holder of the treasure book.
2. The holder of the treasure book voluntarily presents the treasure book when he is dying.
The city lord must have created an opportunity to present the treasure book to Zhang Lei, and then catch the other party off guard.
Li Fancai didn't care whether the new city lord was great or not. He only knew that he was facing a very bad situation now.
The city lord's treasure book is gone.
In other words, in such a huge town, only Zhang Lei, the high-end combat power, can go out to fight?
The impression of Li Fan in everyone's heart is always very smart. Seeing Li Fan's expression, Zhang Lei knew that he could not hide it from Li Fan.
The originally confident aura instantly fell down like a ball deflated.
But he still comforted: "Don't worry, it's okay. As long as you survive this autumn, those low-level monsters will need to hibernate. Even if the leader of the monster wants to bring people back to take revenge, I should be able to deal with it. At that time, we can take the opportunity to go to the royal city to try to ask for support..."
Ordinary monsters need to hibernate.
No need for monster leader level or above.
This must be the new city lord's backup plan.
Otherwise, Zhang Lei would not have thought so thoughtful.
But Li Fan was still not happy.
Things are definitely not that simple!
Since the other party has the ability to support you for dozens or hundreds of years, how could he not consider this special situation?
Li Fan was unwilling to give up, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Why? Why do you need to do this?"
Zhang Lei hesitated and said, "Do you remember those two children Ajie and Xiaoqian?"
Li Fan nodded.
The two children were two of them who said they wanted to protect him yesterday morning in front of his grocery store.
"They both performed very well. They were also at the age of awakening their talents. Everyone thought that they had a great hope of awakening. If this continues, someone between us will definitely be killed by monsters..."
Hearing this, Li Fan finally understood why the city lord did this.
I also understand why Zhang Lei agreed to the city lord to take the risk.
turn out to be……
It turns out that all this really has something to do with me...
If you didn't occupy a "seat" for the treasure book, the situation wouldn't be so urgent. If it weren't for the fact that the treasure book holder did not go out to participate in the war, the situation wouldn't be so bad.
What is even more annoying is that these residents of Sunset City are so simple that they have never had any resentment towards him, and they have never even thought of asking him to offer a treasure book...
This makes Li Fan feel no face to bury others?
Next, Li Fan's mind went blank.
He followed Zhang Lei to get the monster meat in a daze, and followed Zhang Lei away in a daze.
Even forgot to say goodbye.
So I went home to stew meat on my own.
The whole process was like a walking corpse, like an empty shell without a soul.
Until he stewed the meat and brought it to Chen Lianying, he could barely pretend to be nothing and feed Chen Lianying himself to eat the meat.
However, when he left Chen Lianying's wing room, he fell into the same situation again.
Various pictures and thoughts flashed quickly in his mind like a revolving lantern.
There is a picture before traveling.
There is a picture of him and Chen Lianying before their marriage.
Pictures after marriage.
Every bit of life, etc.
I don't know how long I've been stunned.
He finally moved.
He found a bunch of wood and utensils.
Chapter completed!
