Chapter 2048 The Fifth Level City Is Furious

The city lord's momentum suddenly became stronger, but then he sat back again.

"Hey, I also want to punish the murderer severely, but who is the murderer? Do you know?" The city lord looked at the ten people one by one, but they all shook their heads. No one knew who did it. .

"City Lord, if it doesn't work, just report this matter." A family patriarch suggested.

"No, once it is reported, you and I will all be punished, and we may even be executed directly. The loss this time is really too great, let alone in this situation." The city lord refused directly.

"Well, you can't say it, otherwise we won't be able to get away with it. Now the war will break out soon. Once it breaks out, our money will be prepared for the empire. We can only hide this matter. The most important thing now is to hurry up. Get some more money, and after the war starts, we can use this money to hand over, and then get some supplies to distribute, and just tell the boss that we have given all the money to reward the soldiers." A patriarch of a big family suggested .

"Okay, this is a good idea. Not only will the higher-ups not hold us accountable, they will even praise us." The city lord's eyes suddenly lit up.

that's all.

This time the matter was suppressed again.

In fact, the entire Sun Empire is the same. The reason why they fight tooth and nail after going out is because their country's laws are very strict.

If you don't fight hard, you will be punished even if you come back alive. Even your family will be implicated and you will become the laughing stock of others.

Because of this, no one in the Sun Empire is afraid of death.

They thought so, and so did the second four-city city, and so did the third.

half year later!

Xia Tian swept more than 300 fourth-level cities.

A total of two trillion low-grade spiritual stones and materials worth one trillion were obtained.

One trillion equals one trillion, which means that Xia Tian stole more than three trillion of wealth in total.

It can be said that this time summer has happened again.

However, the good times did not last long. Half a year later, Xia Tian also discovered that these fourth-level cities seemed to have received orders and were very strictly guarded. Each treasure house was guarded at all levels.

Although he succeeded when he stole the last treasure house, he almost had it exposed. After killing everyone in the end, he escaped.

He knew he must have attracted those people's attention.

In fact, he had long known that sooner or later he would attract the attention of these people, but he did not expect that it would come so late. He thought that he would be discovered long ago.

But people here are worried about being punished by the superiors, so they deliberately conceal this.

Now that things have become serious, they can no longer hide it from each other.

This time not only one fifth-level city knew about it, but all fifth-level cities in the entire Sun Empire knew about it. This time they were all angry.

However, in order to stabilize the morale of the military, they did not spread the news at this time.

At this time, in a huge room, all the city lords from the fifty fifth-level cities in the Sun Empire were sitting here. It was no small matter to be able to gather such a large group of people.

Generally speaking, only the convocation of the Sun Empire can bring them together, but now it is no longer a matter of convening.

They did not pass the matter on to higher authorities this time.

"Let's talk about it. How to deal with this matter, whether to tell the superiors or not." An old man said slowly.

"I can't tell you what time it is. The higher ups have enough to worry about. If we can't handle this little thing well, then how can we continue to be the city lords of this fifth-level city?" A person from a fifth-level city The city lord said directly.

"Well, I think what Lord Fengcheng said makes sense. Our current position is not for enjoyment. Since we are sitting in this position, we have to share the worries of the empire. This time such a big matter must be handled well. First The first person who knows about this is Lord Ino, please tell me first." Another Lord of a fifth-level city said.

Lord Ino was the one who issued the order for the defense of the third-level city.

"Hey, I am also to blame for what happened this time. At the beginning, thousands of third-level cities were stolen. I secretly executed the city lords of a hundred third-level cities, and then told other third-level cities to step up their guard. Although the third-level cities later Nothing was stolen anymore, but I didn’t expect that the fourth-level cities would actually start to be stolen. I did forget to remind the fourth-level cities at the time. I accept the punishment for this matter." Lord Ino said.

"Actually, although Lord Ino was a little unlucky in his work, he restored the losses of the third-level city after all, so I think the merits and demerits are equal. However, the city lords and big families of the fourth-level cities must be punished." The old man spoke slowly. said.

After hearing his words, everyone nodded.

The old man is the most authoritative person here. Although his tone is for discussion, almost no one will object to what he says.

"City Lord Qiandai, please tell me how to punish him." A city Lord asked directly.

"Now there is a possibility of war. If they are executed directly, it will be a loss for the empire. Then temporarily remove their positions, and then let them go to the battlefield to perform their crimes." The old man is the Qiandai City Lord.

After hearing his words, everyone present nodded.

"Now that the punishment is over, we have to think about how to deal with this incident. We must not sit still and wait for death. Until now, we still don't know who the opponent is and how many people there are. We only know that they can dig holes, but this It doesn't stop them from continuing to steal things. Even if they dump everything into other warehouses, it still can't stop this person. What we have to do now is to find out their situation first, and then set up a dragnet to catch them. As long as we catch the person who stole things, even if we only catch one person, we can follow the clues and get everything back, thus avoiding losses, and what I value more is their stealing ability." Chiyo The city lord has regarded the people who stole things as an organization, because he never believes that one person stole it. Digging the hole in the first place cannot be done by one person.

Secondly, no one has that many storage rings.

He believes that as long as he catches one person, he can involve other people, and finally get back all the lost things.

And they can also get the opponent's ability. As long as they get the opponent's ability, then they can also use this trick to sneak attack other big forces.

This move can even be used in combat.

At this time, Xia Tian already knew that he was definitely being targeted, but he did not have the slightest fear.

"It looks like we're going to do something big."
