“Is the Pollution Giant Tree really dead? How can such a huge tree be dead?” someone asked.
“Yeah, this is the?Pollution Giant Tree. It has existed for so many years and no one has been able to solve it. How can it be dead?”
“Captain Qi, quickly tell us what happened!”
Everyone gathered together and discussed animatedly. They looked at Captain Qi with curiosity and shock.
“Well, naturally someone made a move and killed the?Pollution Giant Tree,” Captain Qi said solemnly.
“Killed the?Pollution Giant Tree? Who is so powerful, to actually kill the Pollution Giant Tree!” Everyone was shocked and hurriedly continued to ask.
“This person is none other than the Silver Rank expert, Lord Li Xuan, who is currently in the limelight,” Captain Qi explained, his eyes filled with admiration.
“Lord Li Xuan? You mean Lord Li Xuan?”
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. They all looked in the direction of the city gate. Although they could not see anyone there, they still looked in that direction.
“No wonder. No wonder that girl dared to take down the bounty mission. It turns out that they have already completed the mission.”
“That’s right. He could even kill the g Pollution Giant Tree. Doesn’t this mean that Lord Li Xuan is stronger than Lord Sword Saint?”
“That’s for sure. Wait a minute, it seems that Lord Li Xuan has never been to our city before. He probably doesn’t know about this bounty mission, right?”
“Could it be that Lord Li Xuan killed the?Pollution Giant Tree along the way and only accepted the bounty mission when he came back?” someone said hurriedly.
“It seems like it’s really possible. Damn, he killed the?Pollution Giant Tree along the way. Isn’t he too powerful?”
...
The crowd discussed animatedly and recounted the scene just now. Captain Qi could not help but ask about the relevant situation.
After learning that Lord Li Xuan had already entered the city, the military vehicle immediately started and hurriedly entered Gravel City.
At the city lord’s mansion.
The originally quiet city lord’s mansion quickly became lively. The city lord, who was leisurely playing, was directly frightened when he heard that the g?Pollution Giant Tree had been destroyed.
When he learned that this was done by Li Xuan, he felt even more shocked from the bottom of his heart.
Therefore, the city lord immediately took action and hurriedly went to look for Li Xuan with a heavy gift.
The Civilian District, in a small tea shop.
Xue’er and Li Xuan were sitting here resting. While drinking tea, they were admiring the local customs of this city.
“Grandpa Zhang, you are very knowledgeable. Can you tell me what that little person is? Why is he so small?”
At the intersection of the tea shop.
Two little girls ran to an old man cutely and asked in a crisp voice.
It seemed that this old man called Grandpa Zhang had seen a lot of things.
“This...”
Grandpa Zhang was a little confused. It was also his first time seeing such a small person, so he was very surprised.
However, he liked to brag and talk about his glorious deeds. He did not like others to say that he was ignorant.
Therefore, he changed the topic and said, “That might be a special race. Let’s not talk about that for now. Do you want to hear the story of how I killed the Pollution Giant?”
“Yes!”
The two little girls nodded in unison. They cupped their chins with their small hands and listened quietly.
“Listen carefully. Five years ago, when we went to Gravel City, we were attacked by an Ordinary Rank Pollution Giant.”
“Although this is the lowest rank of Pollution Giants, we are all weak humans, not superpowered people. Facing such an enemy, we were all terrified...”
“One of the children was so scared that he was crying on the ground, not daring to move. Seeing that the child was about to die in the hands of the Pollution Giant, I made my move at the critical moment.”
“At that time, I rushed over crazily with a pickaxe and smashed it at the feet of the Pollution Giant.”
the giant howled crazily. The sound was very frightening. It turned around and chased after me.
Facing such an enemy, I could only fight and retreat at the same time,
“Fortunately, the giant’s foot was injured. During the battle, I knocked it off the cliff and resolved the crisis.”
Grandpa Zhang said confidently, his head held high.
“Grandpa Zhang, you’re really amazing, to actually be able to kill the Pollution Giant, you’re too amazing,” the two little girls said in admiration.
“That’s right! Back then, I even received a reward.” Grandpa Zhang pointed at the medal on his chest and said.
“Then Grandpa Zhang, can you kill a Black Iron Rank Pollution Giant?” the two little girls asked again.
“Eh! We can’t do that. Black Iron Ranks are too terrifying. Even if there were 100 of me, I wouldn’t be able to defeat such a monster.” Grandpa Zhang hurriedly shook his head.
What a joke. Back then, when he killed the lowest level Pollution Giant, it was because of an accident that the giant fell into the cliff and died.
Meanwhile, Black Iron Rank Pollution Giants were much stronger than Ordinary Rank Pollution Giants. If he were asked to kill a Black Iron Rank, that would be courting death, right? Therefore, Grandpa Zhang shook his head hurriedly.
“Is Black Iron Rank that powerful? Even you can’t defeat it?” the little girl asked in a silly and cute manner.
“Of course. A Black Iron Rank expert can become a city lord in a small city. In our city, they can also reach the level of a sheriff.”
“That’s a rank that’s only second to a city lord. I can’t defeat them.”
Grandpa Zhang continued to shake his head. He did not dare to brag about this kind of awesomeness. He really could not afford to provoke them.
“I see.” The two little girls came to a realization. They finally realized how terrifying a Black Iron Rank was.
At this moment, dull footsteps suddenly sounded.
A large number of soldiers rushed over from afar. The one leading them was a Black Iron Rank sheriff.
Looking at the well-trained soldiers, the people in the tea shop all became nervous. They stood up carefully and walked to the side.
Grandpa Zhang was also frightened when he saw so many soldiers and a black iron rank security officer. He hurriedly brought the two girls to a corner and looked at them nervously.
However, they soon widened their eyes.
Because the strongest city lord of this city, the bronze level city Lord, had appeared. He slowly walked out from the soldiers while carrying a small box.
“Grandpa Zhang, look, it’s the city lord. What’s the matter that even the city lord was alarmed about?”
“It’s really the city lord. He’s the most respected person in the entire city and also the most powerful person. Why is he here?”
The two little girls spoke in a charming manner. While they were puzzled, they also looked at the city lord with admiration.
Grandpa Zhang was also very surprised. It was because the city lord had always been busy with official business, he rarely appeared here.
However, he did not expect that.
Such an important figure actually appeared here. This made everyone very shocked.
The important sheriff was already scary enough. Since even the city lord had appeared, it was even more shocking.
At this moment, in front of everyone’s respectful gazes.
The city lord led the sheriff carefully forward. When they arrived in front of a small figure, they bowed and said obsequiously.
“Greetings, Lord Li Xuan.”
As they bowed, a large number of soldiers behind them bowed in unison and shouted respectfully, “Greetings, Lord Li Xuan.”
The soldiers’ loud voices, as well as the simultaneous bows and salutes, as well as the obsequious expressions on the city lord and the sheriff’s faces, this scene stunned everyone.
Grandpa Zhang, who had been bragging not long ago, stared blankly at Li Xuan. He was completely dumbfounded. He had never thought that there would be an existence that even the city lord was in awe of.
After all, the city lord was a Bronze Rank, a powerful city lord. If even the city lord was in awe of him, it meant that this little person was very likely an existence that surpassed Bronze Rank.
Thinking of this, Grandpa Zhang’s entire body trembled. It was because the existence that surpassed Bronze Rank was Silver Rank. At the moment, a Silver Rank had appeared not too far away from them.
This scene frightened Grandpa Zhang so much that he did not move at all. His entire body was scared silly.
The two little girls were also staring blankly.. Their big eyes were flickering, and their little heads were in a daze.
