Volume I, Chapter 98
After Kane next to him heard this. I only felt that an uncontrollable flame surged into my heart from my stomach.
"What do you mean to have my son, my father is very unlucky? If you have no culture, please shut your mouth that can't spit out ivory. ”
Gammel turned her head and glared, and began to scold: "You ......"
"Boom, boom, boom......" The rapid sound of a bell from the tallest bell tower in the city interrupted what Gamel was about to say.
Turning her head to stare at the towering bell tower, Gammel's brow furrowed, but there didn't seem to be much nervousness on her face.
"What's going on?" Normally the city's bell towers are used to tell the time, but now there are more than twelve bells, which means that the bells are no longer just about telling the time.
"The people on the street... It's all gone!" Krille looked around at the street, and Hao Ran was no longer there.
The bells kept ringing in her ears, and Gambler looked at the south gate of the Messiah, where the noisy roars of the city guards grew louder.
"It's an attack!" The surrounding residents took refuge in underground shelters. Gammel replied at this point.
"Attack?" the three Kane said in unison, looking at Gambler with a puzzled expression.
Gammel nodded: "I only found out about this matter last night in Meisha Godmother, the attack has been going on for half a month now, and the time of each launch is different, this is already the seventh attack, I heard that the scale of each attack is not large, and the battle will be resolved soon." "Let's go over now and see if we can help, I think the soldiers will be happy to see the adventurers go into battle."
"Oh, by the way, it's all voluntary, no one is forced to do it, and no one will pay you a copper plate, it's all up to the adventurer's own conscience. As Gammel's words fell, her eyes stared at Kane unbiasedly.
"What do you mean by looking at me like that? Do you think I'm the kind of person who has no conscience?" Kane said, scratching the back of his head and looking at Gamble.
"I don't know if I have a conscience, anyway, you didn't return the gold coins I gave you. Gamel turned her head and walked forward.
"Didn't I tell you that my gold coins were lost in the Hall of the Winds?
"Bang~" Kane's words fell, and two bags of gold coins appeared in front of him, and the pattern on the bags was the same as the one that Gan Meier had given him.
Gammel, who was in front, suddenly turned her head to look at the bag on the ground, and then looked at Kane and walked over with an extremely natural expression, and easily put it into the spatial engraved ring on her hand.
Kane stretched out his hand, and was about to say that the gold coin now belonged to me, but Gamel took the lead and said, "Thank you, I didn't expect you to have a little conscience." ”
After the words were finished, Gammel ran forward quickly with her legs like wheels, leaving Kane with a puzzled look on his face.

In the dark corner of the Motar slum, Manhattan looked at the tattered old drunkard in front of him in disbelief: "Is that the information you have been helping my grandfather gather for years?"
"It seems that the little devil doesn't believe me!
"I didn't mean that, just a little ...... It's hard to believe that someone your age is still going strong. ”
"The little ghost still doesn't believe me after all. ”
"I'm not a little ghost, I'm twenty-two years old. ”
"Okay, twenty-two-year-old little ghost, how is your grandfather today? I haven't seen him in a while. ”
"My Grandpa ......"
The tattered old drunkard did not listen to Manhattan's hesitant narration, but walked through the alleys familiarly, and soon he came to the old man's quarters.
The old drunkard hesitated for a moment in front of the tattered wooden shed, and then continued to walk forward. Manhattan faltered again, and every step he took felt like a myriad of pieces of lead tied to his feet.
The old drunkard noticed that there was no familiar figure in the little cabin, and when he turned his head again, he saw Manhattan coming towards him in a somewhat decadent manner.
The old drunkard took a sip of the coarse ale in his hand, looked at the half bottle of brandy in his other hand next to him, and suddenly said, "Old fellow......"
"My grandfather has passed away, and I buried him in the cemetery with the best coffin and tombstone. Manhattan said with difficulty.
The old man looked up at the sky, threw away the rough ale in his hand, opened the bottle of brandy of excellent color, and took a sip.
Manhattan wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, it was better not to speak.
"The dead rest forever, but the spirit lives on. "May the Seven Gods bless!" "Maybe this is a relief for him. The old man drew a cross on his chest, looked at Manhattan, and walked out.
"Where are you going?" Manhattan looked at the old drunkard in confusion.
"Follow me. Three words popped out of the old drunkard's mouth, and nothing was said about Manhattan's question.

Messiah - South Gate Bridge, at this time, Kane and others stood on top of the city tower, and the soldiers next to them were waiting.
"Ella, this way, this way. When she saw the familiar figure of the magician's robe, she began to shout at her.
"Huh?" "Kane is here too?" Ella looked at the group quizzically, as she stepped closer.
"What? am I surprised here?" said Kane, with a drooping face that owed tens of millions.
"No, no. Ella lowered her wizarding hat, Kane wasn't particularly happy in her opinion!
"Ignore this guy, he's upset that he just found the Overseer proposing to blow up the bridge barrier, and he taunted him when the Overseer refused!"
"Is there such a thing?" said Ella, looking incredulous.
From a strategic point of view, this is the most effective way to reduce casualties and stop the Monster. Kane said with a look of indignation.
"It's true that this method is the most effective way to stop the monsters, but the Messiah is a city-state with a long history and is very well preserved, and the soldiers here would rather shed blood and die than allow anything to be destroyed, even if it was just a bridge of the Messiah, and they didn't pay attention to hearing that the recent attacks were petty fights. Gammel said angrily.
"Maybe this time will be different!" Kane said, looking at the growing number of monsters in front of him.
"Wait, that's?" Krill, who was standing behind, pointed ahead with a puzzled expression.
"Orcs!" Kane said immediately.
"Orcs, you mean that huge, green-skinned guy is an orc, a violent inhabitant from a blood-stained land?" asked Gammel, looking puzzled.
"It's orcs, but it shouldn't come from the bloodstained land, the Messiah and the bloodstained land are separated by the Narrow Sea, they won't cross easily, even if they cross the Narrow Sea, if they want to attack, they should choose the closest continental city-state to the Narrow Sea, not the Messiah of the Inland Sea Continent, their supplies can't support them to get here. Kane said as he looked at the growing number of demonic beasts that had been assembled.
"Why is there only one leader of the Monsters?" asked Kleil, confused.
"No, look closely, the one next to it, with a wide cloak. Kane pointed ahead and said to everyone.
"That guy's cloak is weird, why is it bulging high behind it?"
"That's the orc warlock, the user of blood magic. Kane frowned.
"How does Kane know?" Kleil, who was standing behind, was even more puzzled.
"Like, how do you know?" said Gambler, looking incredulous.
"They'll attack soon, wait and see what you'll understand. Kane tilted his head and nodded at Gamble.
"Messianic soldiers and adventurers, the time to defend your homeland has come again, and look at the hideous-faced brutes ahead, what will happen to your families when they storm the Messiah, and there is no doubt that they will be brutally slaughtered!"
"They don't rape, they don't plunder property, they don't pity the elderly and children. Of course... The most important thing is that they don't leave a living mouth!"
"What would they think of the inhabitants of the city when they were threatened with death?" They would say, "The garrison of the Messiah is a bunch of soft-footed shrimp who can only play mighty, and they are not even as good as an old man!"
"Hahaha......" The last yin and yang strange words provoked the soldiers on the city wall to burst out laughing.
"Now, the time has come to prove our glory, and our heroic deeds will once again be celebrated in this battle. ”
"Roar!!
"The roar of this group is deafening!" Gammel glanced beside her eyes.
"We are the Iron Guards of the capital, and we are the watchmen of peace. ”
"Roar!!
"We will abide by the oath of defenders, defend every inch of land here with blood, and protect every citizen here with our lives. ”
"Roar!!
"The bloody battle will not stop, only death will rest!"
"The bloody battle will not stop, only death will rest!"
"Kill !!"
"Roar!!
"That's ...... I didn't expect it to be a woman, and I loved her impassioned and encouraging speech. Kane looked at Gamble and the others standing next to him, and the expressions on their faces seemed to be different, but they were all staring at Kane.
"It's exciting, isn't it?" Kane added quickly.
"Lord Lord, does this every time?" asked Gambler, turning her head to look at Ella beside her.
"You mean a speech? should... Isn't it!" Ella said uncertainly, lowering her wizard hat.
Gammel looked at the city gate, where the lords were leading the charge and were rushing to the other end of the bridge, and they decided not to give the opposing side a chance to attack.
