Chapter 269: Defending the City (5)
Fran said disdainfully: "Who are you, you are still out of the city to fight, why don't they go to the sky?"
Jacques had a good impression of the little fat man, and said: "This is Fernando Asorin, who is in my defensive range." ”
The little fat man walked up to Alyssa and smiled at her, Alyssa moved to the side when she saw this, and gave up half of the stone under the thigh, and the little fat man sat down and said with a smile: "I am a native of Qipewa, although this is my first time participating in the defense, but I have experienced three beast tides, and I still have a say in how the legion fights." If they don't get out of town, we're under a lot of pressure, and now we're so relaxed because most of the bugs are attracted away. ”
However, after more than a day of fighting, the awakened people who controlled the equipment on the city wall had accumulated some experience, and when they saw a strange beast falling on the wall, several people nearby immediately left the equipment to scatter as birds and beasts, making room for the plasticizer to deal with the strange beast.
The only chance of the day was when a mantis flew up the walls with fireballs and Fabian's arrows, swinging its two scythe-like forelimbs at the humans nearby.
Jacques was much more idle, and many tarantulas were dealt with by the remote team before they were close to the walls.
Moreover, the attack of thunder and lightning ignores the carapace of beetles and centipedes, and there are only scorched marks on the surface, and the internal organs are burned by electric shocks.
Lily and Alyssa are even more eye-catching, and although the pair only use lightning arrows, their lightning arrows are faster and more powerful, and they can kill the Awakened-level alien beast insects with a single blow.
The ranged team responsible for the point kill played better, they completely mastered the characteristics of the insect action at the level of the alien beast, and after having a prediction, the point kill was more efficient.
However, the performance of the third defensive section is even better than yesterday, there are more novices here, after the first day of fighting, they are more proficient in coordination, and they know more about the characteristics of defensive equipment and strange beasts.
The next day, the swarm appeared on time, and it was still the same way that the old one attacked the city.
......
After Fran returned, he found the opportunity to whisper a few words with Claudia, and when Claudia heard it, her face was also full of joy, and then she got into her sleeping bag with a happy heart and fell asleep happily.
The city of Qipewa does have a backhand, and during the second beast tide siege, the methods that the people at that time came up with have been used to this day, but they are also very effective.
Millions of one-foot-long ants rushed towards the city wall from all directions at the same time, and without some arrangement, according to the current defensive ability, it would not be able to resist at all.
It turns out that the legionnaires will not attack until the last day of the beast tide, which is also the last fight of the beast tide, and it is the time when the beast tide is really terrifying.
Jacques didn't notice Fran coming back, and he was still discussing with Fernando how to defend himself against the Legionnaires.
It wasn't until everyone was ready to go back to sleep in their sleeping bags under the walls that Fran hurried back, but his face was slightly better than before.
......
He was going to the secret office of the Investigation Bureau, where he had met the head of the Investigation Bureau in Zipewa last time, and if he wanted to leave Zipewa on time and return to the imperial capital, he still had to rely on this person to exert his energy.
After several turnarounds and alleyways, Fran made sure that no one was following him before he began to make his way to his destination.
Fran returned to the city, where the city didn't seem to be affected much by the beast tide, and even at night, there were still many people coming and going on the streets.
Not long after Fran left, Pera returned, and everyone continued to chat, presumably to dispel the tension from above.
Soon Fran departed under Pella's guidance.
"No, I'll do it alone. ”
Claudia, who was next to him, asked suspiciously, "Fran, do you want me to come with you?"
The second prince immediately said: "Then trouble you, I have to go back to the city to do some things." ”
Pera replied, "It shouldn't be a big problem in the evening, I can take you to talk to the people at the town hall, but you must be back tomorrow morning before the beasts attack the city." ”
After a while, the second prince asked, "Miss Pera, if I want to go into the city to run errands, can I leave now?"
The content of the other people's chatter passed by his ears, and he didn't pay attention to it, but thought about his own business.
Although the news of his escape at sea should have been transmitted back to the Empire through the Bureau of Investigation in Yorktown, the later he returned, the more uncertainties he would encounter. If anyone knew that he was with the envoy Claudia, it would not be the only Stuart who wanted to kill them, the powerful faction in the New World and the conservative faction in the Northern Regions had been tossed by him a lot in recent years, not to mention that his brother would have taken action if he had the opportunity.
Everyone chatted, only the second prince was a little depressed, in fact, he had been depressed for several days, since the beast tide blocked the port, he had been angry, only Claudia knew why he was in a hurry to return to the imperial capital.
The two businessmen immediately chatted together, and it was quite a happy conversation, and they hated to see each other late.
"Hello, hello, it's a pleasure to meet you......"
As soon as she heard the big customer, Marianne's eyes immediately lit up, although corn and wheat were her uncle's business, it didn't affect her to the customer, "Oh, Mr. Fernando of the original caravan comptoir, I met for the first time, I am Marianne West." ”
Pera immediately said to Marianne: "Miss, Mr. Fernando's firm is our largest buyer of corn and wheat, a big customer. ”
The little fat man smiled and said, "Yes, Miss Pera, our two families often deal with each other. ”
Pera, who was standing behind Marianne, interjected, "Fernando, ah, you're Fernando of the Caravan Comptoir, right?"
He then took out another handful of melon seeds, and said while swallowing the melon seeds: "It's only the first day, and the legion will not all go into battle until the legionnaire ants are dispatched." ”
The little fat man dug into his pocket, and stretched out his clenched fist to Alyssa next to him, Alyssa glanced at the palm of his hand, and the little fat man Fernando opened his hand and stuffed a handful of melon seeds into Alysia's hand.
Jacques nodded thoughtfully, and said, "Well, I've heard that's the case. But according to Fran, the Eleventh Legion had more than 3,000 men stationed at Chipewa, and it is said that only 1,200 men went out of the city to fight, and another 1,200 men rotated with them, so what about the other legions?
Pera held a shield to block the mantis's slashing, and Jacques, who had come from behind, threw a knife five meters away, splitting the mantis's fat abdomen vertically, splashing a puddle of green water.
However, it was Duan Chang Hyde who gave the final blow to the alien beast mantis, and Hyde, who had been using a long-range attack, found a spear out of nowhere, stabbed the mantis' little head from the side, and nailed it to the wall of the battlement.
The vitality of the alien beast mantis was also tenacious, waving its front paws indiscriminately, and it held on for a minute before it stopped struggling.
