Zhao Congnan and Ma San pushed out a heavy, round, black iron disc from the warehouse.
"For some reason, the city's Array Plate has vanished, but luckily we have a spare," Zhao said.
"Yes, we must assemble it right away."
The two of them started bustling about as they spoke.
"Will we make it in time?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"Demons are approaching the city from the outside, a group from the east and another from the south, arriving at the city gates in about ten minutes," the woman said.
Wu Xiaode looked at her, his face expressionless as he asked, "What's your name?"
—As an NPC, asking someone their name should be quite normal.
"Caijing," the woman replied.
"Alright, Caijing, go to the city outskirts—"
Before Wu Xiaode could finish, he suddenly looked up.
The woman known as Caijing also looked up at the sky at the same time.
They saw a streak of light flashing across the clear sky, descending at an extremely rapid pace and stopping right in front of them.
