PNB Chapter 156 Xiao Tian Gets Beaten Up!
Chapter 156 Xiao Tian Gets Beaten Up!
Then, each person fell silent, each with their own thoughts.
A few minutes later, everyone noticed that the stone house began to slow down and eventually came to a stop.
"Distinguished guests, we have arrived. Please follow us!" Honglian nodded politely, making an inviting gesture, and then led the way with Xinglan.
These were the first people to enter Dragon City, and they were all of extraordinary status.
That's why she, as the deputy city lord, personally received them.
The group looked around carefully before cautiously stepping out of the stone house.
Although seventh-tier experts can fly, most of them can only fly at low altitudes.
After all... the air pressure is low and the air is thin at high altitudes, which greatly reduces stability.
Now, reaching heights of hundreds or even thousands of meters, even maintaining balance is difficult, so it's natural to feel a bit tense.
If we encounter another battle, it's very easy to lose.
After leaving the rising stone house, the group saw a checkpoint several tens of meters high blocking their way.
The plaque hanging high above reads: Jiebing Tower!
At the entrance to the checkpoint, a dozen fully equipped soldiers, each wielding a halberd, blocked the way.
The leader, clad in silver armor, was none other than Tie Nan, the deputy commander of the outer city.
Tie Nan not only had no objection to being asked to guard the gate, but actually took it very seriously.
After all... he knew very well that this was the most important checkpoint in Dragon City!
The city lord's decision to entrust him with guarding this place is the greatest trust he can place in him!
Xue Donglai glanced at everyone, his expression shifting slightly, and he became respectful.
This team has a unified image, cold eyes, and synchronized movements; they're no ordinary team!
"Dear guests, please take a look at the prohibitions of my Dragon City! If you can accept them... then you can go in!" Honglian said, pointing to the one-meter-wide and two-meter-high black stone tablet in the lower right corner of the building.
"ban?"
Everyone looked at the dark stone tablet, whose contents were roughly as follows:
Those who commit assault in Longcheng will be imprisoned for 1 to 15 years, depending on the severity of the offense!
Those who commit murder in Longcheng will be imprisoned for more than 5 years, depending on the severity of the crime, and may face the death penalty!
Anyone who harms Longcheng staff or residents will be punished even more severely!
Dragon City is still in its early stages; too many restrictions will deter people from entering. We just need to prevent violent incidents.
Once Dragon City gains wider recognition, Xiao Yu will gradually add more features.
"Distinguished guests, fighting is forbidden in Dragon City, so... before entering the city, please leave your weapons here." Honglian smiled gently, gesturing for everyone to hand over their weapons.
"No! If Longcheng attacks us, won't we be completely powerless to fight back?"
Before anyone else could speak, Xiao Tian instantly flew into a rage.
The young lord of Yan City came to Long City to give Xiao Yu face, yet he wants to disarm himself?
After all... this is the foundation of my livelihood!
"Screech!" Just then, a sharp, piercing bird cry rang out.
When everyone looked up, they discovered that a sixth-tier ferocious beast was crouching atop the checkpoint.
The aura emanating from its body was no weaker than that of a seventh-rank cultivator, and it also trailed a long, five-colored phoenix tail.
At first glance, it even bears a striking resemblance to the phoenix from mythology.
"Hiss~ Another powerful sixth-tier spirit beast!" Everyone was shocked.
*Slap!* A crisp slap rang out, and Xiao Tian received a slap on the back of the head.
Liu Ruyan said impatiently, "Stop talking nonsense! Hand over your weapon obediently!"
As she spoke, she casually took the long sword from her waist and tossed it to the soldiers of Jiebinglou.
"This is your weapon identification tag. Please keep it safe. You will need it to retrieve your weapon when you come out."
Seeing that Liu Ruyan cooperated obediently, the soldiers in charge of collecting weapons immediately registered the weapons and put them in the dense cabinets on the wall. They then took out a wooden number tag, confirmed that the number was correct, and handed it to Liu Ruyan.
Liu Ruyan took it and saw that it was a small wooden plaque about the size of a thumb, with the character "一" (one) carved on the front and "龙城" (Dragon City) carved on the back, wrapped in a circle about the thickness of a wrist with a semi-transparent silk thread.
Under the soldiers' guidance, she put it on her wrist.
Seeing this, Xue Donglai also handed over his weapon and quickly followed.
萧天：(?1?1?6?7_?6?7)
In the end, he could only silently lay down his weapon.
He obediently followed behind the two of them.
Even the young lord of the ruined city has laid down his weapon, so what is he still insisting on?
Moreover... the two leaders had been stabbing him in the back, trying to get him to hand over his weapons.
If you don't hand it over, the two of them will start to rob it!
"Dear guests, welcome to Dragon City!"
Once everyone had laid down their weapons, Iron Man waved his hand.
More than a dozen goalkeepers raised their halberds in unison.
At the same time, a soldier flipped a handle on the door.
Then came the sound of chains and gears grinding together.
A stone gate, three meters wide and five meters high, was slowly hoisted up, allowing everyone to enter.
"Wow, that's amazing!" Everyone's eyes widened again.
Liu Ruyan and Xiao Tian sighed inwardly, realizing that their city gate was just an ordinary stone gate.
It was extremely difficult to turn on and off each time; it took several strong men to push it open with all their might.
And Longcheng? It opens automatically just by someone gently turning the handle?
Xue Donglai's family wasn't much better off; he had seen this kind of switch in ancient books.
However... this technique has long been lost.
Everyone looked at the opened stone door, filled with anticipation.
Before even entering the city, I've already seen so many surprises.
How many treasures are still hidden in the real Dragon City?
"It's so cool! The air is so fresh!"
Upon taking their first step into Dragon City, everyone sensed a different aura.
It was extremely hot outside Longcheng, with daytime temperatures reaching over 40 degrees Celsius.
However, once inside Dragon City, it instantly became very cool.
If the wasteland had air conditioning, everyone would feel like they were in an air-conditioned room.
After all... with the glow-in-the-dark trees there, even if they don't glow during the day, they still emit a cool, minty scent, making the people living here feel very cool and comfortable.
Even those who work in Longcheng rarely sweat from the heat.
"This way, esteemed guests!" After everyone had entered, Honglian introduced, "This is the outer city of my Dragon City. Let me show you around the commercial street."
"Outer city?" Everyone frowned slightly and subconsciously held their breath.
Isn't the outer city just a place where lowly commoners live in cramped conditions? Where excrement and urine fly everywhere and the stench is unbearable?
People of such high status would only visit a few times in their entire lives.
However... after looking around, all they saw were four thick walls, each fifteen meters high.
Moreover... we actually saw two more sixth-tier phoenix-tailed ferocious beasts like the ones we saw before!
There were still many figures moving around on the city wall, which shows how heavily guarded the area was.
Their current combat strength alone is no weaker than that of their team!
We still don't know just how powerful that mysterious Dragon City Lord really is.
At this moment, even Xiao Tian, a spoiled young master, was so frightened that his face turned slightly pale.
And at this moment, in front of them... were three clean and tidy streets.
Each street has dozens or even hundreds of houses, neatly arranged.
It looks...as if it's spotless.
