Chapter 657 The Murder at the City Gate

"Roar~!!" Jia Zhengjin's exhausted roar spread throughout the hotel hall in an instant.

All the voices stopped abruptly, and everyone immediately covered their ears, startled by the terrible roar.

And the big man Kane who bears the brunt is even more directly confused. His distance was the closest, and the target was aimed at him, so when he heard the roar, his mind went blank, all messy thoughts disappeared, and only the humming and echoing voice remained in his head.

His hands slowly dropped, and finally fell to his knees with a plop, holding the head like a statue, motionless.

The guests in the hall also had their heads buzzing. Everyone covered their ears and stood there with their mouths wide open.

Even the young man behind Jia Zhengjin, as well as Maggie, were stunned by the sound.

Looking around, he realized that he seemed to have used his strength too much. Before everyone could react, Jia Zhengjin hurriedly turned around and slipped away, and ran back to the upstairs room.

"What's going on? What's going on?!" The soldiers in the city arrived quickly, probably because of the roar just now that startled them.

After McGee reacted, he hurriedly explained the reason to the soldiers, and said that it was a dispute between the big man and the young man, skipping the topic of Jia Zhengjin. All the tourists and adventurers at the scene, after seeing Jia Zhengjin's ancient battle cry, no one dared to mention him easily.

Although Jia Zhengjin was worried about getting into trouble, it seemed that nothing special happened all night.

When he got up in the morning and was about to leave, McGee specifically told him that both the big man Kane and the young man were taken away by the soldiers, but it was only a minor charge of disturbing order, and they were released after a lesson. Then thank him for what happened yesterday.

Only then did Jia Zhengjin realize that he was thinking too much. Although he used the ancient battle cry yesterday to scare many people, it was not enough for the soldiers to interrogate him. After all, such quarrels happened everywhere. People who fought and destroyed facilities in the city appear from time to time. So although everyone will be frightened by themselves and know that they are not a person to be provoked, they just treat it as an after-dinner story and chat, and no one comes back to make trouble.

The hotel here is just a small episode. After leaving, I rode on the butterfly wing bird and flew towards the city gate, preparing to continue on my way.

But when they came to the west gate, they were stopped by the city gate guard with a large number of soldiers and forced to descend.

The gates of the city were tightly closed, and countless adventurers, businessmen, and common people who were trapped here complained again and again.

"What happened?" Here's the way to go,

Jia Zhengjin had to pass by. This inexplicably sealed the city gate, which is really disturbing. He had no choice but to ask the city gate guard.

Not only him, tens of thousands of adventurers, businessmen, and common people stuck here are asking what happened.

The city gate guard and thousands of soldiers tried their best to explain to everyone over and over again.

After listening clearly, Jia Zhengjin understood.

It turned out that in the early morning, a massacre occurred outside the city gate, including passing merchants, a mercenary regiment and soldiers defending the city. A total of 174 people were killed, which was shocking!

What is even more frightening is that the corpses of nearly two hundred people turned into skeleton soldiers, left in full view, and entered a nearby forest.

In order to ensure the safety of passing merchants, adventurers and common people, the city lord had to order to temporarily block all the city gates, prohibiting anyone from entering or leaving the city. At the same time, the army is strictly ordered to deal with this case, find the necromancer who caused the panic as soon as possible and eliminate him!

But the army also has difficulties now, because ordinary soldiers can't deal with necromancers at all, as evidenced by so many companions who died before. At present, the only strong man in the city, that is, the famous seventh-rank warrior Paul, is also the leader of the army in the city. Because he must protect the safety of the city lord, he cannot take the initiative to lead troops out of the city, which becomes quite difficult.

In fact, Jia Zhengjin was not afraid of any necromancers at all, so he also thought about breaking out by force. But there were some other adventurers who did this before him, and they were subdued by General Paul who rushed here.

It's not that he can't beat Paul, but he must use all his skills. At that time, his identity will be exposed, and the disguise will be meaningless!

But he couldn't just stare blankly like this and just stay in the city foolishly, right? His time is precious!

Fortunately, at this time, the city lord came out and spoke to everyone: "Everyone! This morning, a horrific tragedy happened here! Just outside the city gate, 174 innocent lives disappeared, and they were even made into skeleton soldiers! They There are many businessmen, tourists, and even all members of the Black Crow Mercenary Corps, as well as soldiers who shot to protect them! But don't panic, we will do our best to ensure everyone's safety, and will never let the evil necromancer Invade our city! It is a pity that most of our generals and soldiers have gone out to cooperate with His Majesty's bandit suppression policy and have not yet returned. If General Paul leads the army to capture the evil necromancer, it is hard to guarantee that he will not be successful. The opponent's strategy! Therefore, ensuring the safety of everyone in the city is the top priority. But we can't just sit back and watch the evil necromancers continue to kill people. For this reason, I appeal to the mercenary group with certain strength to take the initiative to stand up! We need Everyone's support requires everyone to form a line and fight against the evil forces! I have issued a mission to hunt and kill necromancers in the mercenary union, and only the mercenary union can accept it. As long as the necromancers can be eliminated and the law and order inside and outside the city can be restored , the mercenary group will be rewarded with 1,000 gold coins, as well as my treasured fifth-order healing skill scroll!"

As soon as the city lord's voice fell, there was a lot of discussion at the scene. Many people were eager to try, but when the companions mentioned that among the 174 people who were killed, there were many fifth-level fighters and other equivalent professions, everyone fell silent again!

Although some people can be seen scattered in the direction of the mercenary union, the number is not many.

Now everyone looks a little disappointed, and the city owner is even more worried. He originally hoped that a capable mercenary group could take over the task and help him solve this particularly troublesome problem. For this reason, they are all willing to spend a huge sum of 1000 gold coins and the scroll of the fifth-order healing technique, but it seems that the effect is not very good.

I don't know how useful those mercenaries can be?

Jia Zhengjin didn't want to reveal his identity and cause more trouble. But I don't want to waste time waiting here. After much deliberation, there is only one way, and that is to go to the mercenary union. As long as you take part in this mission against the necromancers, you can leave at any time if you can leave the city, so there is no need to wait foolishly!

Thinking of this, he turned around and followed the mercenaries towards the mercenary union.
