And so, under Linda’s guidance, the group of ten swiftly advanced forward.
Accompanied by the whistling of the sharp gale in their ears.
In no time, the silhouette of a town almost the same size as Cyan Town gradually appeared in everyone’s sight.
Undoubtedly, what would take ordinary people a day and a half’s carriage journey was nothing but a ten-minute trip for their powerful group.
“Have we arrived?”
Seeing this, Leo Ray, who was riding a giant white wolf, waved his hand in a gesture to slow down their pace.
Immediately after, he jumped down from Bianca’s back with ease, distributing Illusion Cloaks to everyone while speaking: “Let’s go into the town and have a look.”
“Yes, my Lord!”
On the other side, all the subordinates bowed and clenched their fists.
This time, to avoid attracting attention, everyone in the group changed their appearance using the Illusion Cloaks.
As for Taylor and Gideon Black, they hid themselves under Invisibility Cloaks as trump cards.
And so, disguised as ordinary travelers, they went along the broad road and soon arrived at the outskirts of the city.
At a glance, they saw a vast expanse of green fields surrounding the city.
There were many farmers working the fields, with a bustling atmosphere of the busy farming season.
“My Lord, our Cyan Town mainly focuses on trade, while this Milan Town is an agricultural town,” at this moment, Linda respectfully explained.
After donning the Illusion Cloak, her slightly androgynous and delicate face became rather ordinary.
However, a touch of heroism was added between her brows, making her appear like a spirited young man when paired with her fair complexion.
“I see,” Leo Ray nodded slightly and squinted his eyes, continuing to observe.
Behind the vast green fields was the towering stone city wall.
The wall here was much taller than that of Cyan Town, almost rivaling Golin City in size.
Figures bustled about on top of the walls as banners fluttered in the wind, showing that their defense was quite impressive.
“My Lord, unlike Cyan Town which flourished in recent years, Milan Town has been run by the family for generations and has a deep foundation,” Linda, who was closely following Leo Ray, then whispered:
“Here, there is a total of 4,000 regular garrison troops, along with three middle tier units of Tier 2 elite guards.
Moreover, like in Cyan Town, 1,000 regular troops have been transferred to the border battlefield.”
“So, there are currently three large teams of regular defense forces and three middle tier units of elite defense forces here? I must admit, in terms of strength, it is indeed stronger than Cyan Town,” Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully, then asked:
“How many Tier 3 powerhouses are there?”
“My Lord, according to my investigation, there are a total of nine Tier 3 powerhouses, including the City Lord himself. Two of them are on the border battlefield, and there are no powerhouses above Tier 4,” Linda replied with a slight bow, as if recounting a treasure.
“Very good, Linda, your investigation is excellent.”
As Leo Ray nodded approvingly, he noticed that they had already arrived at the city gate.
He saw the two teams of tall guards stationed by the gate, standing neatly with their armor gleaming in the sunlight.
However, the soldiers’ faces showed signs of distress, as they paid no attention to the passers-by nor carrying out their inspection duties properly.
“My Lord, there’s something off about these soldiers. It’s as if they’re worried about something,” Linda couldn’t help but frown and whispered to Leo Ray.
“Indeed, it’s not just the soldiers at the gate; even the local townspeople seem to be heavyhearted,” observing the simple farmers carrying various farm tools, Leo Ray continued:
“It seems that some unknown event must have occurred here recently.”
“My Lord, do you think Kombu might have been involved in this unknown event?” Linda asked cautiously as she scanned their surroundings.
“It’s possible,” Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully, quickening his pace, and added:
“Let’s go into the city and see.”
Thus, they smoothly entered Milan Town.
As usual, Leo Ray signaled to Taylor, who had the strongest perception, to scan the area.
Only then did he continue observing.
The streets of this town exuded an ancient atmosphere.
On both sides, the shops and buildings had many wooden structures with traces of recent repairs.
Even the stone-paved road under their feet had mostly been smoothed, showing that it had weathered a long passage of time.
In short, from all aspects, this Milan Town was indeed a city rich in history as Linda had described.
“However, most importantly, there is indeed a strange atmosphere permeating this place,” Leo Ray observed the passers-by around them and couldn’t help but think to himself.
“My Lord, I detected seven Tier 3 powerhouse auras here, with five of them gathered at the city center,” Taylor’s voice came through the Mind Talk after a few moments.
“If I’m not mistaken, that should be the City Lord Mansion,” Leo Ray nodded slightly and continued to move forward through the streets, thinking to himself.
“But my Lord, what’s strange is that the five Tier 3 auras gathered together are very intense. They have clearly released their energy and are in a state of battle, as if facing a formidable enemy,” Taylor’s rugged voice soon followed, full of confusion.
“Oh?” Upon hearing this, Leo Ray’s face also displayed doubt as he asked: “What about the other two Tier 3 powerhouses?”
“My Lord, the other two Tier 3 powerhouses haven’t shown any unusual movements,” Taylor’s voice entered Leo Ray’s ear again.
“Five forces are in a state of battle while the other two have no reaction? Plus the eerie atmosphere spreading throughout the city – what exactly has happened here?” Leo Ray pondered this with a frown.
Suddenly, without warning, a series of dull horn sounds came from the city center, followed by another.
The next second, the city gate behind them began to close slowly.
At the same time, with the sound of dense footsteps and armor clashing, numerous fully armed soldiers started swarming the city wall.
The surrounding civilians also started fleeing in all directions, hastily closing their doors and windows.
Undoubtedly, this strange city had inexplicably entered a state of war..
