Monster, come to my bowl

Chapter 175 Teamwork

General Li's idea is very logical.

But he underestimated Cai Ji's vision!

Cai Ji took the initiative to become Brother Kun's younger brother, firstly to take care of the psychological feelings of the Demon Emperor, and secondly to gain the other party's true trust!

If Brother Kun was forced to be a younger brother, the peace talks between the two sides would never be so smooth.

This is called sacrificing the self for the overall situation!

Seeing that no one believed him, Cai Ji was too lazy to explain.

He shook his head helplessly and said directly: "The full moon will come in a few days. Then you will see if there are any big monsters coming to attack the city, and you will know whether what I said is true or false."

"Okay, okay!" Li Zhan still didn't believe it, and took the initiative to smooth things over, saying, "The special envoy has worked hard on the journey. I have prepared a banquet to welcome the special envoy and the messengers! Please!"

"Okay!" Cai Ji nodded immediately.

The group left the water gate and came to the banquet hall of the Demon Suppression Bureau.

Several messengers were already waiting here.

"Your Excellency the Special Envoy, you are here!"

"I'm glad you're okay!"

"We thought you and Zhetian were fighting!"

When they saw Cai Ji show up, they immediately surrounded him and asked him all kinds of questions.

"Did you know that the cloud was the Demon Emperor?" Cai Ji squinted at them and deliberately said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Ah? Don't you know that cloud is the sky?"

"You asked us to go back to the city first. We thought you already knew what the cloud was about."

"Yes! Every messenger knows the information about Zhatian!"

Upon hearing this, the messengers all started to blame each other.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this for now!" Cai Ji accidentally exposed his ignorance and quickly changed the subject: "Where are your flying backpacks?"

"It has been handed over to the city lord and sealed up! The lord said that it should be sent to Tongtian City for the Great God of Destiny to review." A messenger looked at Li Zhan next to him.

"No need!" Cai Ji shook his head and ordered directly: "I will give you two days to go home and visit your relatives. Fly with me to Tongtian City before the full moon. There are more important things for you to do."

"Yes, sir!!!" Although the messengers were not Cai Ji's subordinates, they all saluted involuntarily when they heard the order.

"Come on, come on, everyone, sit down first! We can talk while we drink." Seeing this, City Lord Li took the opportunity to propose.

After a few polite words, everyone sat down to eat.

After three rounds of drinks, let’s get back to the topic.

"Special Envoy Cai, these two magic weapons are also your work, right?" Li Zhan took out the communication bronze mirror and demon-finding box he carried with him and asked expectantly.

As the lord of Dingfeng City, he had just received these two items a while ago. He used the communication bronze mirror among them to hold an online meeting with the Great God of Destiny and the lords of various cities.

In this strange meeting, Li Zhan fully understood the content and steps of the human revival plan.

"It was indeed me who did it!" Cai Ji did not deny it and nodded with a smile.

Today, he knows his identity, and it is difficult to hide it among the higher-ups of the Dongzhou Demon Suppression Bureau, so he simply chooses to admit it openly.

"That's great!" Li Zhan was overjoyed and asked directly, "Special Envoy Cai, can you turn the big bell into a magic weapon?"

"Big bell magic weapon?" Cai Ji was stunned and joked, "The kind that rings by itself at midnight?"

"No, no!" Li Zhan shook his head, picked up the demon-finding box in front of him, and said seriously: "It is the same as this box, a big bell that can give early warnings! This box can only be carried by a city lord like this. In case of omissions or not in the city, it is easy for the demon emperor to take advantage of the opportunity to enter! In addition, the demon tribe will launch an attack in a few months. I suspect they will use the shapeshifting technique to let some demon emperors and demon kings enter the city to cause damage first."

After listening to City Lord Li's explanation, Cai Ji's eyes lit up: "So, you want to transfer the power of the box to the big bell! As long as the Demon Emperor approaches the city, the big bell will automatically ring, so that everyone in the city can prepare in advance! Right?"

As the saying goes, three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang!

City Lord Li's words instantly opened Cai Ji's mind.

"That's right! That's what I meant." Li Zhan nodded vigorously.

"Automatic warning bell! Great idea!" Cai Ji slapped his thigh and added, "Why not give it an automatic distance measurement function? When the Demon Emperor is a hundred miles away, the bell will automatically ring ten times. When it is ninety miles away, it will ring nine times. When it is eighty miles away, it will ring eight times... Also, give the Demon King one bell! Hang two bells in every city! This way, not only can we give everyone a warning in advance, but it will also make the Demon Emperor and the Demon King suspicious and afraid to enter the city rashly!"

"Your Excellency the Special Envoy has spoken the truth! I would like to offer you a toast!" Li Zhan raised his glass with excitement as if he had found a soulmate.

"Let's do it!" Cai Ji was very happy to get a good suggestion unexpectedly.

Reviving the human race is everyone’s responsibility!

He suddenly realized the importance of collective wisdom.

No matter how smart a person is, his energy has a limit, and there will always be unexpected things.

After drinking, Cai Ji took the initiative to ask: "Does City Lord Li have any other ideas?"

"I only have one idea, but other city lords proposed many interesting ideas during the meeting that day. I can convey them to the special envoy." Li Zhan replied excitedly.

“Okay!” Cai Ji nodded and said, “By the way, I’m not from the Demon Suppression Bureau! City Lord Li, please call me Shopkeeper Cai. It sounds better.”

"Manager Cai?" Li Zhan was a little surprised, but he said in agreement, "Okay, Manager Cai! The other day the city lord suggested that the red haze was thick on the night of the full moon, which greatly affected the vision of the soldiers defending the city. He hoped to have a magic weapon for lighting."

"Okay! I'll give you a searchlight powered by spiritual power!" Cai Ji answered without hesitation.

"Searchlight?" City Lord Li looked curious.

"What else?" Cai Ji asked directly without explaining.

"The city lord also said that the ordinary arrows we use are not powerful enough. When encountering monsters with rough skin and thick armor, the effectiveness of archers is greatly reduced. I wonder if Manager Cai has any way to solve this problem?" Li Zhan continued.

"This is easy! Concentrate the arrows on the Tower of Babel. I will enchant them to increase their penetrating power!" Cai Ji replied.

"Enchantment?" City Lord Li was curious again.

"What else?" Cai Ji still didn't explain and continued to ask.

"And that's..." Li Zhan continued.

Just like that, one asked and the other spoke.

A welcoming banquet was turned into a seminar on war issues.

However, not all questions and suggestions raised by the city lords are of reference value.

Some of the questions are not only unreliable, but also ridiculous.

For example, a city lord asked Wang Dasiming at a meeting if he could ask a master who knew the art of holy words to help him resurrect his concubine who had been dead for three years!

The reason is that when monsters attack the city, with his concubine cheering him on, his enthusiasm for fighting the monsters will be extremely high!

Another city lord said that he had given birth to eight daughters in a row, and asked if he could ask an expert to use the Holy Word to guarantee that his next daughter would be a son!

What's more, some people directly said that they didn't want to be the city lord anymore, and they just wanted to become disciples of the masters and concentrate on learning the art of the Holy Word!

There are all kinds of talents.
