2593 Cultivators in loucheng disguised as monsters (1)
As the city was occupied by monsters, there were no traces of any residents. The long streets were empty.
However, he would occasionally see demonized little monsters, such as chickens and dogs, hurrying past the streets.
This was to avoid the pursuit of other monsters. Even if it had been demonized, it was still food for high-level monsters.
In some of the houses on the side of the road, the figures of monsters could be seen from time to time, rummaging through boxes and cabinets in search of food.
In fact, most of the monsters in the city were demonized residents. The place where he was now was his former home.
However, after becoming monsters, they had lost their humanity and the concept of home.
Even their own homes could be destroyed without any restraint. Even their former relatives could be treated as food without hesitation.
As for why they occupied the city instead of attacking other indigenous settlements, it was probably related to the monster leader’s decision.
As the monster’s level continued to increase, it would become more and more territorial. They would occupy a piece of land and then dominate it.
The city of monsters under their feet should be the territory chosen by a high-level monster, and the monsters nearby were all its subordinates.
Because they still had their original thoughts, the monsters lived in the city and maintained the city’s operation according to the model before they were demonized.
The problem was that the monsters had to eat every day, and the consumption of food was huge. If this problem could not be solved, the monster City would not be able to last for long.
Tang Zhen used the cover of the buildings to walk freely in the city, heading straight for the city center.
Soon, a large building appeared in front of them, surrounded by all kinds of monsters and filthy remains.
The once prosperous city Lord’s mansion was now more like a garbage dump, looking dilapidated.
The tall monster was wearing armor and holding a sharp weapon. It was guarding the city Lord’s mansion.
Compared to the low-leveled monsters, the guards of the city Lord’s mansion were stronger and more intelligent.
The low-level monsters would send the food they had captured to the city Lord’s mansion and then be driven away. The scene of them biting and crying was exactly like wild beasts that ate raw meat and drank blood.
Tang Zhen did not enter from the main entrance. Instead, he went around to the backyard of the city Lord’s mansion and climbed over the wall to enter.
Just like the streets outside, the originally clean and quiet city Lord’s mansion was now filled with a strange rancid smell.
Although the environment was much quieter, the number of monsters was much higher, and most of them were high-level monsters.
These monsters had higher intelligence, unlike the low-level monsters outside that were bare-chested and bare-back, and most of them were wearing long robes and armor.
Due to the change in their body size, normal clothes could no longer be worn. Some monsters simply tore off cloth and animal skin to make simple clothes.
After bypassing a group of monsters that were processing food, Tang Zhen quietly walked along the small path and began to look for the monster leader that controlled the city.
In the end, he had just walked a short distance when Tang Zhen saw two figures appear from the corner. They were talking in a low voice as they walked.
The language used by the other party came from the world of loucheng. It was precisely because of this reason that Tang Zhen discovered an abnormality.
these two guys are not monsters. They are cultivators in disguise, and they are likely to be Lou Cheng’s cultivators!
A trace of a smile was revealed on the corner of Tang Zhen’s mouth after he confirmed the other party’s identity. He did not hesitate to give chase.
He thought that the city was full of monsters, but he didn’t expect that there were cultivators in disguise.
After following them for a while, the two cultivators in disguise entered a Golden Hall.
Tang Zhen used his invisibility skill and quietly hid on the roof. After which, he slowly observed.
He didn’t follow them in because he noticed that there were a few Lord-tier monsters in the hall.
In addition, there were many monsters with powerful strength, at least stronger than the disguised cultivators of Lou Cheng.
They were gathered around a long table with a map in the middle. They were discussing in a fierce tone.
From the content of the discussion, it was about how to attack a nearby city and obtain the final victory.
Whether it was the cultivators in disguise or the real monsters, they all looked ferocious and ferocious when they discussed.
When Tang Zhen, who was hiding on the roof, saw this, he couldn’t help but secretly admire them in his heart. These cultivators of loucheng city really knew how to act.
As for why they had disguised themselves as monsters and stayed in the enemy’s nest, there must be a special reason.
After Tang Zhen’s identification, there were a total of 13 cultivators disguised as monsters in the hall, but there were more than 30 monsters.
The monsters had the advantage in strength. Most of the cultivators in loucheng were only at level one or two.
If the two sides fought, cultivator Lou Cheng would definitely lose.
This was probably the reason why Lou Cheng was disguised as a cultivator. Once their identity was exposed, they might not be able to escape from the city of monsters.
Tang Zhen became more and more interested. He was ready to find time to communicate and figure out what this group of Lou Cheng cultivators wanted to do.
The meeting lasted for about two hours, and the monsters dispersed at the same time. They did not make any preparations for the next battle.
Tang Zhen sank into deep thought upon seeing this. If the monster was the kind that did not have a brain, it would naturally be incomparably easy to kill it.
However, as the monster’s level increased, their intelligence also increased, and they became more organized and disciplined.
In this case, the difficulty of killing monsters would be multiplied, and it would be more difficult to obtain points.
If this trend continued, perhaps the natives would be replaced by monsters and become the new masters of the world.
At that time, the cultivators would become monsters in the eyes of monsters and be hunted down by monsters like the natives.
Tang Zhen left the hall and followed one of the Lou Cheng cultivators who had disguised himself as a monster into a house.
“Come out,”
After the other party entered the room, he suddenly said this sentence, causing Tang Zhen, who was invisible, to be slightly startled.
The strength of this cultivator in disguise was not high. He was at most level 20, which was equivalent to a level 2 cultivator.
He was only at the bottom level of strength, but he was actually able to discover his hidden self. It was simply unbelievable!
Tang Zhen did not move. He merely quietly looked at the other party as though he had not heard those words.
Regardless of whether the other party had really discovered it or was bluffing, Tang Zhen would definitely not take the initiative to appear.
This was the basic requirement of stealth tracking. One had to be patient enough, or else it was very likely to backfire.
But in the next moment, a woman slowly walked out of the room.
She was wearing a set of leather armor and had a pretty and dignified appearance, but her face carried an unconcealable fatigue.
“During the meeting just now, the Demon King has already decided to attack the nearby cities the day after tomorrow.
I’ll find a way to get you out of the city, and then you’ll leave this city. Run as far as you can.”
The woman smiled bitterly and shook her head after hearing the words of the Lou Cheng cultivator.
She sat on the chair next to her and said in a hoarse voice, ” “Now that there are monsters everywhere, Where can I go? I might as well stay here with you.
Even if I die, I can be buried in my homeland and die with my family.”
When the cultivator from Lou Cheng heard this, he frowned and sighed.
“To tell you the truth, we’ve contacted a group of powerful cultivators, and a great battle will soon break out.
If you stay here, I won’t be able to protect you when the battle starts, so you have to leave!”
The cultivator from Lou Cheng said to the woman slowly, ” “If I’m still alive, I’ll come and find you. If I die, you can just pretend you’ve never seen me.”
Tang Zhen stood silently at the side. Through the exchange between the two of them, he could faintly guess their relationship.
He disguised himself as a cultivator of loucheng city while carrying out a mission and met the daughter of the city Lord by accident. They had a good impression of each other, but they didn’t want the city to be attacked by monsters.
The cultivators of loucheng disguised themselves as monsters and saved the city Lord’s daughter’s life. At the same time, they blended into the monsters ‘camp.
Tang Zhen wasn’t interested in the content. What he was concerned about was the powerful cultivators that the other party mentioned. He wondered if they were related to the top ten battle zones.
This matter had to be cleared up. If things were really as he thought, then he really didn’t need to spend any effort to get it!
