Chapter 595: Still a Rich Man
In the [Time Barrier], Mo Cheng hit all those who seemed to want to stop the unrest with a stick. He didn't even need a second stick. Just one hit was enough to cripple these people's ability to move.
In the instant that everyone felt time, before anyone had time to react, those who tried to mediate and stop the riot fell to the ground .
If the person trying to mediate is unconscious, then naturally there is no way to stop the unrest.
Even if the two conflicting parties see the person trying to mediate suddenly faint, the only thing they will do is to put the blame of attacking the mediator directly on the other party and then beat the dog's brains out.
"Done."
Mo Cheng returned to Loni, panting slightly. The consumption of the [Time Barrier] depended on the extent to which Mo Cheng opened the barrier. The current limit was to cover the entire city, but if he did that, he would also be injured by the recoil of time as soon as the [Time Barrier] ended.
And after using it several times, he has almost figured out the optimal size for using the [Time Barrier].
But after using it so many times, Mo Cheng's mana began to be consumed too much, and [Time Barrier] has never been an ultimate skill with low consumption.
“When do you think these people will react?”
Looking at the areas in the city where thick smoke was rising, it was obvious that some guys had already started a fight, or someone was trying to take advantage of the situation and set a fire.
Loni did not answer Mo Cheng's question, but instead said: "The army has sent us a message, and we will be able to reach Celtic City in about two hours."
Hearing this news, Mo Cheng couldn't help but frown, "Are you planning to march quickly and then directly attack the city? What is Margaret thinking? This will only cause more casualties."
Even a guy like Mo Cheng who only knows how to fly the F2A knows that after a forced march, the soldiers must at least be given time to rest. After all, unlike in games , the soldiers are subject to physical and morale limitations.
Attacking the city directly after running a long distance is basically tantamount to seeking death.
"I just received news that Minanka learned of Aundair's actions and sent troops to support him." Loni explained, "It's the newly established Griffin Legion."
The Griffin Legion, a legion directly under Queen Aundair, has long been stationed in Fairhaven to protect the royal palace.
But it is obvious that the griffin army that rushed to Aundair this time was not the royal guards guarding the central palace.
"Minanka regrouped the soldiers of the Griffin Legion Shatai, reorganized them, and established a new Griffin Legion. Apparently, they felt that they needed to deal with the flying guards before taking down the Central Palace."
The newly established Griffin Legion is aimed at the Royal Guards who are currently guarding the Central Palace over Fairhaven.
As for sending out the newly formed Griffin Legion, it is easy to guess what Minanka was thinking. Like Andel, a newly formed legion needs battlefields and victories as its foundation.
"Okay, now I understand."
It's not that Margaret doesn't want to attack the city after a forced march and rest, but the Griffin Legion will not give her this opportunity. Once the Griffin Legion as the air force arrives, without the cover of city buildings, the Griffin Legion will be able to slowly destroy Aundair's army in the completely unobstructed area outside the city.
It is necessary to capture the Celtic City before the Griffin Legion arrives, and then deal with it with the help of the city’s defenses.
The arrival of the Griffin Legion was definitely not good news. Mo Cheng even had an urge to transform himself into an ancient dragon to intercept the Griffin Legion.
Otherwise, Andair's army would probably suffer a lot of losses this time.
As if she could see through Mo Cheng's thoughts , Loni persuaded him, "I don't recommend that you intercept the Griffin Legion directly. That would give the Demigods in the Black Prison an excuse to attack. And if Andel wants to reclaim her territory, she must use her own strength."
"If you rely solely on your own strength to recover the territory, other countries will only recognize this as the kingdom of dragons, not Aundair."
Mo Cheng doesn't even look at those [Demigods] in [Black Prison] who rise to the top by relying on environmental changes. Before they make up for their own defects, they are just [Legends] with longer health bars to Mo Cheng.
But the second half of what Loni said convinced him.
[Aundair Continuous Quest] requires the restoration of Aundair, so international recognition should also be a very important part.
Of course, if Mo Cheng directly defeats Minanka, occupies all the territory, and declares that his country is called [Andel], it is possible to complete the task.
But doing so is a bit risky.
[Aundair Continuous Quest] has been completed to the third ring. If any error occurs during this process, this quest line will be ruined.
All previous investments will be wasted.
"call……"
After letting out a long breath, Mo Cheng had already made a decision.
"Speaking of which, you've been listening for so long, aren't you going to come out?" Mo Cheng looked towards an empty space, "Or do you need me to ask you to come out?"
The opponent's hiding skills were very sophisticated, but when Mo Cheng and Loni were talking, he heard their plan and his mind became unusually active, so he was captured by [Nightmare].
A figure walked out of the air, appearing quite abruptly, but without making people feel any sense of incongruity, as if he was supposed to be there.
It was two days ago that Mo Cheng used the [Time Barrier] and [Nightmare] to slander and kill Count Hausman's acting consul.
After the acting consul showed up, he raised the weapon in his hand silently without saying anything. At the same time, his muscles tensed and his energy was compressed to the brink of being out of control.
The Acting Archon knew more about Mo Cheng's power than other nobles who only listened to legends and rumors, so he also knew that facing the giant dragon in front of him, he only had one chance to strike.
This attack was not to buy himself a chance to survive, but to injure the giant dragon in front of him. Only if the other party was injured would Minanka have a chance to catch his breath.
"Why bother? If you surrender, I will let Mishas give you a lighter sentence, and you will still be a rich man."
Mo Cheng's persuasion had no effect at all, and the acting governor directly launched an attack.
A sword, fast as the wind and fierce as thunder.
It was real thunder, lightning wrapped around the acting archon's entire body, and he suddenly accelerated and rushed towards Mo Cheng like a cannonball.
The storm and thunder met at the tip of the sword, erupting with terrifying power. The desperate blow had the power to pierce the city gate.
Pierce the north and south gates directly through!
The Acting Archon was convinced that even a giant dragon would not be able to avoid this sword, and its dragon scales would be shattered by this blow.
but……
"Nice shot."
No one knew when Mo Cheng came behind the acting consul. No one noticed how he moved, but he appeared there in an instant.
Even the acting archon who had locked onto Mo Cheng had no sense of anything.
"Too bad you couldn't even get the dust off my clothes."
"You are too weak."
As Mo Cheng spoke, the acting archon only felt an infinite power erupting in his body, erupting, erupting continuously, and finally the acting archon's head flew high.
Before falling into endless darkness, what he saw was his own body, which seemed to have suffered countless attacks in an instant and was completely beaten into a pool of flesh and blood.
