Chapter Eleven: The Death of the City Lord
In the city lord's room, two monsters and one dog stared at the magic screen.
Qingke Banner's team was not moving very fast. There was no way, the parts of these siege equipment were too heavy. Of course, it was more because a monster had changed the road to the second floor, forcing them to spend time on the detour.
But perhaps it was the "good weather is beautiful", and the team led by Qingke Banner did not encounter a monster, and his luck was "quite good".
"Oh, this speed is comparable to what Lu Qi, you have." The little skeleton couldn't help but tease.
Lu Qi wanted to roll his eyes, but soon he remembered that he seemed to have no eyes at all, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Shit Lime really wants nothing.
"They have to walk about four days, and we have three days to prepare." Lu Qi estimated the itinerary.
"Three days are enough, of course, they cannot be ruled out that they did not catch up." The little skeleton turned his hand and reminded him.
"No, they will definitely conquer." Lu Qi said with great confidence.
He recognized the origin of this team, which was a joint team composed of the three mercenary groups in Danjue City. The old man led by him was Qingke Banner, a human at level 60!
Any first-line team of these three mercenary groups has the ability to hunt on the third underground floor, and some of them have the ability to enter certain areas of the sixth floor to collect precious herbs and ores.
It can be said that these are the three mercenary groups that understand the dungeon best in the entire kingdom!
In addition to rich experience in dungeons, the three families also brought a lot of siege equipment this time, including a magic cannon.
As the saying goes, a cannon fires a thousand taels of gold. In addition to the expensive body of the cannon, each shell is so expensive that it makes people tremble.
Lu Qi guessed that these three mercenary groups might have bet on all their wealth.
This battle will either become famous or be disbanded on the spot.
People, money, determination... the three gather together, their morale is high, and they fight against each other, and there is no reason to be invincible.
"Wait, what you mean is, three days later..." Xiao Hei suddenly realized something, and waited for the dark dog eyes to reveal a little white of his eyes.
"Oh, Xiao Hei, you're finally smart." The little skeleton touched the dog's body with admiration. He originally wanted to touch the dog's head, but Lu Qi was on it and could only change the place.
"Oh my God, so fast." Xiao Hei was a little panicked, "But, but..."
"Don't worry, believe me." Lu Qi comforted.
"Okay, now I can only trust you." Xiao Hei whimpered, "But what should the city master do? What if the rules require it to play?"
"Xiao Hei, Lu Qi said it, don't worry."
The little skeleton suddenly increased his tone of speaking, "Also, you'd better learn to be more steady, at least you're the guy with the third place in combat power."
"No, I'm just a dog." Xiao Hei responded aggrievedly, but soon, it realized something and looked back at the little skeleton.
It seems that something is wrong?
"Xiao Hei, the city lord seems to be tired. Take Lu Qi out. I'll pack up the plate and feces." The little skeleton said lightly, and at the same time, a red light flashed deep in its eyes.
Xiao Hei's body trembled instinctively. He nodded quickly, and silently took Lu Qi away without saying a word.
Leave the shredded shredded and the Lord of Snail City alone.
...
"Xiao Hei, what are you shaking?"
Lu Qi, who came outside, came to his senses from his thoughts, stretched out a small sharp corner and poked Xiao Hei's ears.
"No... nothing, I can't explain it even if it's a little." Xiao Hei shook his body hard and forced himself to calm down. "By the way, Lu Qi, did you not notice anything just now?"
"I was thinking about things just now." Lu Qi twisted and twisted, "Aren't you worried? So I thought about it carefully and see if there were any mistakes in the whole plan."
"Is there any mistake?" Xiao Hei asked tentatively.
"Yes, after all, I don't know what the mode of changing the layer challenge is, whether it is a melee or a one-on-one single challenge, or other forms of challenge." Lu Qi expressed his concerns, "There is also the Lord of Snail City. Will it be forced to be recruited on the field. After all, it is the Lord of the City, and it is a bit unreasonable if there is less challenge to change the layer."
"I think, Jishi should have noticed this too." Xiao Hei hesitated for a while, looked back at the city lord's room, and said this, "But it shouldn't be able to get on the stage anymore."
"I know, the Lord of Snail City is too old, but even so we have a chance." Lu Qi responded.
After hearing this, Gouzi sighed. It seemed that the guy on his head did not understand what it meant.
Xiao Hei walked towards Lu Qi to the lobby. It found a seat to sit and habitually placed his head on the dining table.
Lu Qi felt a little strange.
Is this Xiao Hei too nervous?
Lu Qi came down from the little black head, tried hard to protrude a small pointed foot, touched the dog's ear, left a string of mucus on it, and comforted him: "It's okay."
"Sorry, my mood suddenly became a little bad." Xiao Hei sighed, "Actually, Chess respects the Lord of Snail City very much. Since I was invited to the Monster Alliance, it has been taking care of the Lord of Snail City's daily life."
Lu Qi was covered in question marks when she heard this, and suddenly said why this was done?
"And, Cheshi's position in the alliance has actually surpassed the city lord. The position of the city lord is not necessary for him, but in order to meet the challenges and cater to your plan, the position of the city lord is also necessary for him!" Xiao Hei thought for a while and said, "Anyway, don't blame Cheshi, everything it does is for everyone's good."
Hearing this, Lu Qi understood something even though he was slow.
The little skeleton should be preparing to kill the Snail City Lord and take away the position of the City Lord!
The purpose of doing this is very simple. First, to add a real level 30 combat power to the challenge team, and second, to avoid the elderly and weak Snail City Lords and drag them down in the challenge!
Lu Qi was silent. He really didn't expect that the little skeleton could do this.
Decisively, it made Shi and Dog on the dining table feel uncomfortable.
Not long after, the little skeleton came to the lobby, with a calm expression and a piece of animal skin in his hand.
Instead of walking towards Lu Qi and Xiao Hei, it walked straight to the stage and inserted into the performance team, cutting off the unknown performance being performed.
This move attracts the attention of all monsters.
"I am going to announce something sad now, just now, our city lord passed away in his sleep!"
There were bursts of exclamations under the stage, accompanied by some crying, and the sound of the dining plate falling to the ground came from the corner.
"Now, let us observe three minutes of silence for the late Lord of the City!"
The little skeleton said, lowering his head.
The monsters also bowed their heads and observed silently.
Xiao Hei whimpered and buried his head under the table, feeling particularly complicated.
It didn't like the city lord, but when the city lord died, its heart was filled with reluctance, and the feeling of emptiness made it very uncomfortable.
Lu Qi was not very touched by this. He didn't have much contact with the Lord of Snail City, but he was full of emotion.
Three minutes passed quickly, and the little skeleton raised his head and spread out the piece of veil paper that he held tightly in his hand. "Next, I want to announce another big thing, everyone should have guessed it, which is about the appointment of the next city lord."
"This document is a suicide note prepared by the city lord, which says that the position of the city lord will be passed on to... Lu Qi!"
There were bursts of exclamations coming from the bottom of the stage again, even better than before.
Then, all the monsters' heads turned around and looked at Lu Qi.
Xiao Hei suddenly pulled his head out from under the table, which was much worse than the result it originally planned!
The little skeleton did not seize the position of the city lord, but gave it to Lu Qi!
At this moment, Lu Qi was stunned. He put his eyes on the stage and urgently wanted to ask if the little skeleton had made something wrong?
