Chapter 773
After that, everyone left the store and blended into the bustling crowd of Pioneer City, starting their journey to explore the news from the front line of the battlefield of gods and demons.
They first came to a tavern in the city. Inside the tavern, there was laughter and the aroma of wine, and monks from all walks of life sat around and chatted.
Han Changkong and others found an empty seat, sat down, ordered drinks and food, and then listened attentively to the conversations of the people around them.
"Have you heard? The fighting on the front lines has intensified recently. It seems the Protoss has sent in several top experts, and our casualties have increased dramatically."
A big bearded man said loudly while drinking.
"That's right. One of my brothers just returned from the front lines, seriously injured. The battle is getting even more difficult now."
Another monk echoed.
Han Changkong frowned upon hearing this and thought to himself:
The situation on the front line is so serious, far beyond expectations, I must be extra cautious.
I don’t know if Ruomang is still here or if he is in danger.
As everyone was listening intently, the door of the tavern was suddenly pushed open, and an arrogant voice came out:
"Hey, where did this strange face come from? He looks so unfamiliar!"
Everyone turned around and saw a group of Demon God monks dressed in gorgeous armor and with arrogant expressions striding in. The leader had a bad face and was staring at Han Changkong and others. It seemed that a storm was about to start.
Before Han Changkong and the others could respond, the group of people swaggered over.
The leading monk folded his arms across his chest and said arrogantly:
"Where did you little minions come from? Do you know the rules of this Vanguard City?"
Han Changkong stood up and responded in a neither humble nor arrogant manner:
"We were sent by Yuanjia Town to support the front lines. We've just arrived here. How have we offended anyone?"
"Huh! Yuanjia Town? Never heard of it!"
The monk snorted disdainfully.
"In this Vanguard City, everything must be done according to us. I am a subordinate of the Divine King Commander Fang Hao, so you'd better obey me, otherwise..."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Yan's heart burned with anger. He stepped forward and said:
"Don't go too far. Although we respect the Divine King, we are not the kind of people who will be bullied!"
The monks under Fang Hao's command immediately glared at each other and drew their weapons, creating a tense atmosphere.
Han Changkong raised his hand to signal Yuan Yan to calm down. He knew very well that it was not appropriate to act impulsively at this time, otherwise it might bring disaster to the entire team.
Han Changkong saluted the leading cultivator and said:
"We are new here, so please forgive us if we have offended you. We will certainly obey Commander Fang Hao's instructions."
What a joke! I don’t even understand the situation right now. If I make things worse, I’ll be in a lot of trouble.
Seeing Han Changkong's humble attitude, the monk's arrogance subsided a little, but he still said arrogantly:
"Commander Fang Hao is in charge of all military operations in this area. Since you are here to support him, you must obey orders. The city has been busy recently, so you should report to the city defense office and await dispatch."
Han Changkong finally understood that this guy was here to deliver a message?
"Thank you for letting us know. We'll be there soon."
Han Changkong saluted again, then led everyone out of the tavern and headed towards the city defense.
Along the way, Yuan Yan said indignantly:
"Captain Li, why are you being so polite to them? We haven't done anything wrong!"
Han Changkong sighed and said:
"Yuan Yan, calm down. We are outnumbered in this unfamiliar place, while Fang Hao, as the leader of the Divine King, holds immense power. A conflict with them now will do us no good. We should first follow their instructions and then act accordingly."
Although Yuan Yan was unwilling, he also understood that what Han Changkong said made sense, so he could only nod silently.
When everyone arrived at the city defense area, they saw that it was heavily guarded, with soldiers from the Demon Clan lined up in neat rows and patrolling continuously.
Han Changkong stepped forward to explain his purpose to the officer on duty and handed over relevant identification.
After checking, the officer said:
"You are the cultivators from Yuanjia Town. Please register here first, then go to the tent over there and wait. Commander Fang Hao will come to arrange your mission later."
