Chapter 480 The City Lord's Decision, the Queen's Discovery

"Lord City Lord, this..."

The person who reported suddenly changed his face when he saw the direction the city lord was looking at.

He was a little worried.

The city lord would do something that was difficult for him to accept.

The city lord did not reply.

Instead, he walked quickly to his main table with a sullen face.

Behind his main table, there was a huge portrait. The portrait was not of himself, but of an old man with white hair but vigorous spirit.

The old man's eyes seemed to have magic.

No matter who looked at it, it was as if he was looking directly at it.

After approaching the portrait, the city lord raised his head and looked at the tall portrait, but deliberately avoided the pair of eyes with fascinating magic.

Seeing this scene, the person who reported suddenly lowered his head, as if something terrible was about to happen.

And the city lord, after taking a deep breath, slowly moved his eyes upwards.

From the lower jaw of the portrait, to the tip of the nose, and then to...

Eyes!

The moment the city lord met the pair of eyes.

His whole body trembled violently.

His face turned pale instantly!

Fortunately, he was prepared. At the moment of trembling, he suddenly held the corner of the table, which made him shake slightly, but he finally stabilized his body.

In just a moment.

His forehead was sweating profusely.

Even more blue veins popped out.

This test lasted for a full three seconds.

It didn't seem long, but it was extremely painful for the city lord.

Suddenly.

The sweaty city lord suddenly shook, as if the heavy burden on his body was suddenly unloaded, and he almost couldn't stand still.

At the same time.

The portrait also shook suddenly, and then slowly rose up, revealing a small black box hidden behind it.

The city lord leaned on the corner of the table and panted heavily. He didn't recover for a long time. It seemed that he was really reluctant. He finally gave up and just waved his hand, signaling his men to help.

The guy kept his head down from beginning to end, and didn't dare to breathe.

The city lord waved his hand for a long time, but didn't see his men come to help. He could only force himself to turn his head and take a look... As a result, he found that the guy kept his head down and didn't dare to raise his head at all. He could only glare at the guy angrily and annoyed. After a long time, he stood up and took out the small black box from behind the picture frame.

After a long sigh, he put the small black box on the table.

"Go, throw this into the reservoir."

...

"It's too quiet here..."

After walking a long distance and still not encountering any problems, Chen Ming couldn't help but sigh.

It's too quiet.

It's so quiet that people feel very uncomfortable.

If it was just Chen Ming and his group, it might be fine, but they could always know what was going on with Brother Gang, and knew how big a fight was going on there...

Such a comparison made Chen Ming and others feel a little lonely.

It's not just them.

The warmongering Queen is even more so.

She has complained so many times along the way...

There is absolutely nothing to do!

The killing on Brother Gang's side really made her excited.

"Boss, boss!"

Suddenly, news came from the front.

Chen Ming's expression was lifted.

Has something finally happened?

However, the news brought by the guild members was completely different from what Chen Ming thought.

"Boss...our brothers walking in front are almost at the gate of Qingfeng City."

"We didn't find anything along the way."

"If we keep going forward, we will leave Qingfeng City."

"Are we going to keep going forward?"

Hearing the reports from the brothers, Chen Ming couldn't help but frown.

We are about to leave Qingfeng City?

They have actually walked so far?

But along the way, apart from picking up the sister and brother in that house, they didn't encounter anything else.

"That's it?!"

Ling Yue also showed a look of surprise and looked at Chen Ming.

Didn't they say there was a lot of movement here at the beginning?

How come they didn't find anything at the end?

"It shouldn't be..."

Chen Ming was a little confused.

Even if they came late, the battle with the inner demon here had already ended, but... it shouldn't be so clean, right?

Just when Chen Ming was confused.

There was also news from the queen.

"Bai Yutang, are you really capable?"

"I've been fooled by you!"

"I've walked to the edge of the city, and I haven't even seen a ghost!"

"Are you kidding me!"

Seeing the queen sending messages like a machine gun, Chen Ming's brows frowned even deeper.

Even the queen...

didn't find anything?

If it was just Chen Ming who didn't find anything, it could be attributed to the fact that they made mistakes when they first explored the intelligence, leading to misjudgment.

But even the Queen was unaware of it.

This is not just a matter of the intelligence being wrong.

"Is this a deliberate arrangement?"

"A trick?"

"To lure the tiger away from the mountain?"

"Or what?"

Several thoughts suddenly flashed through Chen Ming's mind.

But he immediately shook his head.

This is the inner demon riot.

It is the inner demon that is completely uncontrollable.

Who can control the inner demon?

If he really had that ability, no matter what the purpose was, there would always be other more efficient and simpler means to achieve the purpose. Why would he cause such a big trouble?

But if it was not specially arranged...

Why did the two teams led by Chen Ming and the Queen get nothing when they clearly had certain intelligence?

Both sides got nothing.

Not even a little useful intelligence was obtained.

But both sides saw the wreckage all over the ground.

It was as if someone had deliberately arranged all this and was teasing Chen Ming and the Queen.

"I always feel something is wrong... How about we withdraw quickly?" Ling Yue suddenly said this with some worry.

As if she was worried that Chen Ming did not trust her, she added, "My intuition has always been very accurate..."

"Well, I have the same idea." Chen Ming was also a little uneasy.

He immediately ordered to return the same way.

At the same time, he also conveyed this decision to the Queen.

However, this guy did not follow Chen Ming's arrangement.

"I don't believe it!"

"It's a waste of time!"

"I just have to find something..."

Seeing that this guy was going to act on his own again, Chen Ming just twitched his lips...

Forget it, I'm used to it.

I don't want to bother with her.

Not only Chen Ming, but everyone in the Nine Heavens Guild was also used to the queen's behavior. They ignored the queen's unauthorized actions and returned the same way as Chen Ming requested.

Soon.

The queen climbed over the city wall without giving up.

Came to the outside of Qingfeng City.

Outside the city, there was silence.

It was even more empty and quiet than in the city.

No matter how you look at it, it seems that there is no clue.

But the queen was different...

After pretending to search for a while, she looked up at the other thieves who had gone far away, and then her mouth slightly raised...

"Hehe, a group of mediocre thieves..."

"They were fooled like this."

"Hehe...I will have the baby all to myself!"

As she said that, she landed lightly from the city and then went into a forest.

The leaves in the forest blocked her view and she could lose her direction at any time, but the queen relied on her talent to move easily in it.

Suddenly.

"Crack".

The queen stepped on a hard object.

She subconsciously looked down.

It was a piece of armor fragment of a Qingfeng City soldier.

The queen was stunned.

Here...

How could there be a piece of armor fragment of a Qingfeng City soldier? !
