The giant bone City Master, who had a cultivation of rank 5, was killed in an instant. This caused the Allied army of the three cities to immediately fall into a panic.

In addition to Tang Zhen’s roar, it caused the soldiers of the loucheng Kingdom to feel even more terrified. For a moment, they did not know what to do.

Some loyal and devoted cultivators from colossal bone city had planned to ambush Tang Zhen, but their heads had been blown up by the snipers on the war chariots. This made them even more afraid to act rashly.

The Holy Dragon city’s soldiers were only in the hundreds, but they firmly suppressed the three city coalition that outnumbered them by more than ten times. The soldiers were full of killing intent and were awe-inspiring.

Tang Zhen threw the head of the colossal bone city’s city Lord onto the ground. He looked at the Alliance Army of the three cities, which was as silent as cicadas in winter, and shouted once again, ” city Lord of Redwater City, City Lord of earth Valley City, get out here!

The loud voice echoed in the wilderness, but the two of them did not appear.

Tang Zhen coldly snorted. He searched the map and found the two city Lords who were being protected by the cultivators.

Waving to the Holy Dragon city’s soldiers operating the mortar, Tang Zhen once again shouted, I’ll give you one last chance. Get the hell out of my sight, or you’ll end up like the city Lord of giant bone city.

The two city Lords who were protected by the cultivators turned ashen. However, they still did not move forward. Instead, they began to slowly retreat.

“You’re looking for death!”

When Tang Zhen saw this, he immediately adjusted the angle of the mortar and locked onto the two city Lords.

“Bang!”

A Cannonball whizzed out and flew into the sky before the eyes of countless people. Then, it rapidly fell.

Seeing the cannonballs falling from the sky, the two city Lords turned pale with fright. They tried their best to Dodge, but it was too late.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A loud sound reverberated as more than a dozen people were sent flying by the impact of the Cannonball, including the two city Lords that Tang Zhen had locked onto.

However, the two of them had already become a bloody mess. Although they were still breathing, they could not hold on for more than a few minutes.

In the blink of an eye, the three city Lords were all killed. This caused the Allied soldiers to panic, and some of them had already thrown down their weapons and started to run away.

“Whoever dares to escape will be beheaded!”

Tang Zhen fired a few shots and knocked down a few loucheng soldiers who were trying to escape. Then, he warned the rest of the Allied forces.

The Holy Dragon city’s wasteland war chariots immediately spread out and opened up enough distance to surround all these soldiers. Countless guns were pointed at their position.

Under such a terrifying atmosphere, some people could not bear the pressure and threw away their sabers, kneeling down and begging for mercy.

After the first person surrendered, there would be a second and a third. In less than a minute, the ground was filled with surrendering soldiers.

Some cultivators in loucheng didn’t choose to surrender. Instead, they tried to escape, but they were shot to pieces by the machine guns.

After seeing the miserable state of those who resisted, even if some of them were unwilling, they could only choose to surrender.

Tang Zhen sighed. He ordered the Holy Dragon city’s soldiers to hold these prisoners while he walked towards the direction of the Black Rock City’s residents.

Tang Zhen frowned slightly when he saw the miserable faces of the citizens of Black Rock City.

Originally, he had planned to gather all the nobles in Black Rock City and kill them, but it seemed that there was no need for that now. The mayor of colossal bone city had already solved this problem for him.

“Where is the governor of Black Rock City? I want to see him.”

Tang Zhen walked to the front of a citizen of Black Rock City and asked him in a loud voice.

The resident shook his head with a trace of sorrow on his face. Perhaps a relative had died in the fire.

“Who knows where the governor of Black Rock City is? hurry up and tell us!”

kill! Tai Seng shouted at the top of his lungs, then he looked around with a face full of killing intent.

One of the citizens of Black Rock City stood up and said in an uneasy voice,”I saw the city Lord, but he didn’t escape with us. He’s Wufu.”

“But what? don’t worry, I won’t blame you!” Tang Zhen said to the citizen of Black Rock City with a smile.

Seeing Tang Zhen reveal a smile, that Black Rock City resident’s courage increased by a lot. He continued, I saw the city Lord laughing and crying, locking himself in the city Lord’s Hall and never coming out again.

After saying this, the resident sat down on the ground. However, the scene he described caused many of the residents of Black Rock City to sob softly.

Tang Zhen nodded his head. He turned around and looked at the Black Rock City which was covered in thick smoke. He was speechless for a long time.

It did not matter whether the governor of Black Rock City was a qualified Governor or how rotten the city he ruled was. However, at the last moment when the city Tower was destroyed, he still chose to die together with the city. He was still a man with some courage!

When a person dies, all matters would be resolved. Tang Zhen was not interested in judging whether the life of the Black Rock City’s Governor was right or wrong. He only wanted to know his final whereabouts.

The two powerful enemies were eliminated, but Tang Zhen was not happy.

There were too many things to do next. Whether it was the handling of the prisoners of war or the settlement of the residents of Black Rock City, they were all problems that Tang Zhen had to solve.

Other than that, there was also the transfer of personnel, the provision of food, the collection of resources left behind by Black Rock City, and so on. This would be enough for Tang Zhen to be busy for a period of time.

After these things were done, Tang Zhen still had to send people to receive the resources and residents of the other four towers. It was another pile of messy trifles.

Just thinking about it caused Tang Zhen to feel a headache.

Fortunately, the harvest this time was quite rich. The number of residents and captives added up to more than ten thousand people. Tang Zhen was always able to find some useful talents among them.

If Tang Zhen were to handle all of these matters, he would definitely die of exhaustion.

In an open space not far away, Xiao Rui and Mo Yun led a group of cultivators from Black Rock City and rushed back.

They had just dodged the ambush of the giant bone city’s city Lord’s powder, and after escaping the pursuit, they had been prepared to seek help from Tang Zhen. In the end, the two sides had not met.

When they saw the thick smoke rising from Black Rock City, they immediately charged back, only to find that Black Rock City had already ceased to exist.

After finding their relatives among the residents of Black Rock City, Xiao Rui and Mo ran walked to Tang Zhen and asked him what they should do next.

From this moment on, the two of them had already regarded themselves as Holy Dragon city’s residents. They naturally had to obey Tang Zhen’s orders.

“Mr. Murun is in charge of appeasing the residents and explaining the benefits of Holy Dragon City to them to make sure that they don’t overthink things.

Xiao Rui, you will be in charge of commanding the Black Rock City cultivators and helping the Holy Dragon City soldiers to look after the captives. If anyone dares to cause trouble, kill them immediately!”

Unusual times called for unusual things, and Tang Zhen was not allowed to be merciful.

There were many things that Tang Zhen wanted in Black Rock City that was filled with thick smoke. For example, the meat worms and mushrooms in the underground space, the foundation of the city, and the wealth that Black Rock City had accumulated over the years.

However, after this fire, how many things would be left?

When Tang Zhen thought of this, his heart twitched in pain, and he wished he could kill that damned colossal bone city Lord once more!

Forget it, I’m lucky to have it, but I’m not fated to have it. Let’s not think about those troublesome things.

‘I’ll see what’s left in Black Rock City after the fire is extinguished.’

I hope I can leave something good for myself.
