Chapter 41: The Birth of the Demon Race (2)

The "Hundred-Eyed Giant" Castle is one of the ten castles of the Unyielding City of Hagia Sophie used to protect the safety of Hagia Sophie and the royal palace. It is said that it is to protect the castle, in fact, these huge architectural knowledge is slightly smaller than the normal castle, and the military supplies and food on the faΓ§ade can completely allow the more than 500 soldiers guarding the castle to be self-sufficient for half a year.

The ten castles are scattered throughout the outer city of Hagia Sophie according to the importance of each outer city, because the north has always been a settlement of immigrants and poor people and there is no particularly important existence, so there is only one castle in the whole north of Hagia Sophie, the "Hundred-Eyed Giant", which guards the outer city of the north and the center of the inner city alone. Now, the fortress that has guarded Hagia Sophie for hundreds of years is finally at its most dangerous moment ever.

Unlike the reservists who had previously garrisoned the northern walls, each castle in Hagia Sophie was made up of veterans with extensive combat experience. Since most of the troops in the north of the city were transferred to defend the city, Sterls also specially sent more than a dozen disciples of Qi Tianci's Dream Return to Shenzhou to temporarily settle in this castle. It was they who discovered a scene that made them creepy.

"Look, what is that?" A disciple of the Returning Character Rank was looking out of the city boredly, but suddenly noticed a huge red figure floating in the air so abruptly, before he could react. This disciple was stabbed in the heart by a dim sword. When such an accident occurred, the alarm sounded from the castle, and the soldiers immediately took their positions, staring intently at the invading enemy.

However, the figure had no intention of attacking again, even when the soldiers guarding the castle shot bows and arrows at it. If anyone with a sharp eye looks at all this, they will find that the arrows are blocked by the dark red light that surrounds the figure just as they are about to hit the figure.

When the figure slowly descended on top of the castle, something stunned happened. The figure silently looked around at the nervous humans around him and smiled faintly. "I am your commander, Count Rebecc. ”

Everyone looked at this fiery red monster in amazement, and it was difficult for him to hook up with his immediate boss, the dignified Earl Rebecc.

"Why, don't believe me?" Rebeck smiled and looked at himself. "If I had done it before, I wouldn't have believed it was me. But now I want to say, behold, what a perfect creature is in front of you, the most perfect work of nature for thousands of years. Andy, Rick, Mike, don't you really know me? I just had a drink with you yesterday. ”

The three Hundred-Eyed Commander who was read by Rebek looked at each other, and one of them turned to Rebek and asked, "What proof do you have that you are Lord Count Rebec?"

Just as the man finished speaking, a dark yellow long sword suddenly appeared, and the sharp tip of the sword was only the length of a hair's from the man's eyes. "Andy, I think that's the best evidence. Even if we are not the same species now, but thinking about the previous relationship, I am still reluctant to kill you. ”

"So, what do you want to do?"

"Andy, do you think Saint Sophie can still hold on?"

"I don't know. ”

"You really don't know?" Rebeck looked at the nervous man playfully and continued, "Do you know how many soldiers and civilians we've lost since fighting those aliens outside the city?"

"No, I don't know. ”

"No, you know for sure! Let me remind you that before the war, our kingdom of Magellan had a huge population of hundreds of thousands, but after the war, except for this city, all the other cities and villages of our kingdom fell, and no one survived! And Hagia Sophie, who had a population of nearly 100,000 before the war, and now, together with the soldiers and militia, we have less than 50,000 left! And what about the invaders outside the city? Even with the recent setbacks, there are still close to 20,000 troops! And now, these armies are surrounding us!"

After hearing this, the hearts of the humans guarding were gloomy. In this war, they all had family members killed by the apostles' sword. They also know that unless a miracle happens, their lives are counting down. "But Lord Earl, I still don't know what you want to do. ”

"What I want to do is actually very simple, and that is to ask you to join them. ”

"What?" the crowd was stunned

Rebek lazily leaned on the city wall and said lightly: "I don't want to give you too much time to think about it, after ten breaths, I need to hear the answer." Either you will sacrifice as needlessly as those who died in this doomed nation, or you will join these aliens and open a new chapter for yourselves. ”

"No! never!" Before Andy could answer, Qi Tianci's disciples took the lead and were ready to fight to the death. However, a scene that surprised Rebek happened, and before the dozen or so disciples could get close to it, they were surrounded by other soldiers. No matter how high these disciples' kung fu skills are, no matter how tacit they cooperate, there is only one fate waiting for them in front of dozens of times other soldiers, and that is death. Rebec looked at the scene in front of him playfully, and suddenly felt how dirty it was to be a member of the human race before.

After a while, Andy, who was covered in blood, threw away the weapon in his hand, knelt in front of Rebec, and said respectfully, "Lord Rebec, we are willing to follow you." ”

When the gate of the castle was opened, Bad Art, who was resting on the side, thought that the plan had failed, and just as he was about to lead the apostles to attack, he saw that the person who came out first was actually Rebek.

"Good, I didn't expect you to really finish it. Seeing that Rebek was not the only one who came out, but about five hundred human soldiers came out with him, Bad Art smiled a little complicatedly and continued to ask, "Why, it seems that you still can't get rid of your lowly human identity?"

"Not really. Rebeke looked at Bad Art in disgust, "They are the ones who joined you voluntarily, without them, I would not have been able to take control of this castle so easily, and now, we can go straight in." ”

"Really?" Bad Art secretly let the hundred or so apostles close, while perfunctory Rebeck.

Rebek didn't notice anything wrong, but tried his best to explain the benefits of having these humans to help, until a scream rang out, which completely shattered its illusions.

Rebek looked at the human soldiers behind him in surprise, only to find that the soldiers who had disarmed had died tragically one by one under the apostles' swords. "What are you doing here?" Rebeck yelled at Bad Art, "They volunteered to join the Apostles, why did you kill them?"

"Why?" Bad Art looked at the broken man with a mocking smile "Because we don't trust anyone but ourselves." Even you. And as slaves, they are not qualified enough. ”
