Chapter 122: The Street
Eclipse Moon slowly straightened up from the rooftop, her strength on the verge of exhaustion. Had it not been for Add's request, she would have intended to remain here until she passed out;
Before descending from the roof, Eclipse Moon glanced back at the battle, and saw that the adventurers' ranks had been completely defeated, and corpses were lying on the ground......
Although the moonlight was not enough to discern the clothes from such a distance, the Eclipse Moon still knew which side most of it belonged to.
After the gravity array was canceled, the viscount, who was originally trapped in the middle, was finally able to stand up;
You don't need to see his face clearly, but you can tell from his arrogant posture that he is extremely proud at this moment.
The adventurers calculated for a long time, but finally fell into his trap.
He commanded his knights and soldiers to participate in the battle, and he rode unhurriedly and watched the play on the side of the alley;
There are sporadic adventurers who desperately want to break through the past and solve it, but in the face of the soldiers' interception, these people's counterattack is as powerless as hitting a stone with cotton.
In fact, it didn't matter whether the soldiers joined the battlefield or not, more than ninety percent of the adventurers had completely lost their fighting spirit, and all they were thinking about was how to escape from here - the lightly armed soldiers who had been prepared were enough to stop them.
With the exception of a handful of able-bodied people who managed to escape by climbing onto the walls of the courtyard and climbing onto the rooftops, the remaining adventurers were like flying insects caught in a cobweb—they could only make a fairly limited struggle.
After most of the adventurers were seriously wounded or killed, the battle began to move on to the next stage;
The lightly armed soldiers began to focus on attacking the adventurers' limbs, which apparently did not kill the latter instantly;
Because the viscount wants to catch it alive.
After entering this stage, for the viscount's side, it is almost cleaning up the battlefield.
Add didn't have time to pay attention to the situation over there, and the fiasco fit his mainstream plan, which was the number of soldiers......
Where did they come from?
"Be careful, Eclipse Moon, do you need me to help you?" Eddie jumped off the courtyard wall before turning back to look at Eclipse Moon;
Although the girl had no problem until she left the roof and stepped on the courtyard wall, she seemed a little shaky standing by the wall at the moment;
"It should be...... Don't ......" Eclipse Moonlight gritted her teeth and jumped off the courtyard wall;
Her long-term experience made her not fall down immediately, but when she stood up, she staggered a little because of her physical exhaustion;
Add hurriedly went up and hugged her, the girl's cheeks were slightly red, and her head was slightly lowered, "Let's ...... Are you going back to the Purification Temple like this?"
"It can't be done. Add said as he motioned for Eclipse Moon to walk in the direction he was pointing, "On the one hand, the distance is too far for your physical strength to support, and on the other hand, ......
The current steel and wood city is too dangerous. ”
"You don't have to worry about me, just go back to the temple...... I've already told Aunt Nuan Yang about the situation here;" Eclipse Moon was wondering whether she should try to break free, "Your physical strength should be enough, right?"
Little girl, you seem to have misunderstood something......
Add sighed inwardly, was it just that Eclipse Moon's physical strength was not enough......
In fact, my physical strength can't support it.
After all, it's hard to describe this physical fitness...... There's no way to run all the way back.
"You don't want to make up those heroes saving beauty and stuff like that. Eddie deliberately lowered his tone coldly,
"I'm not going back for the sake of safety, do you think that the Viscount, with such careful preparations, might let those who escaped go back safely?"
"......?" Eclipse looked at Add, momentarily stunned;
Is it because of physical exhaustion and lack of energy to think, or is it because of a fiasco and a mental blow that has been too great?
Eddie felt like he had better explain the situation quickly.
"Since the viscount can pull out so many people out of thin air, it means that he may pull out the same number of people...... Of course, this group of people may not be equally good at fighting, but they can do some other work;
For example, lurking on the side of large and small streets, waiting for panicked lucky people to pass by, and then ......"
Add is telling the truth.
"This ...... To put it this way...... "Eclipse Moon became more and more uneasy.
But it didn't tell the whole story. Eddie thought to himself, if he said it all, this girl would have to be in a hurry......
Those who are lurking may be directly involved in taking people passing by, or they may be letting people pass...... And then keep an eye all the way.
It had been agreed that no one except himself and the Eclipse Moon would return to the temple directly after the operation, so there was no danger on the Warm Sun side for the time being, but not necessarily for the other guilds...... Many adventurers only have one place to live in the guild.
The guilds of the entire Steel and Wood City will face a considerable change after tonight......
Eddie walked dozens of steps with the Eclipse Moon in his arms, and walked all the way into an abandoned warehouse not far away, which was still in a semi-deserted state, and there were still many abandoned warehouses and uninhabited houses.
"Here...... It's not far from the alley, isn't it?" Eclipse reminded with some concern, "It's possible that those soldiers will find out, right......?"
Yes, it wasn't far away, and the sound of footsteps and shouts still filled the ears of the two of them, and if they were careful, they could even tell a sentence or two of what the soldiers were shouting;
But that's enough.
Add took the Eclipse Moon all the way to the corner of the warehouse, where chests more than a few meters high were scattered between the abandoned wooden shelves, and there were some thatch that smelled of dampness next to them;
Of course, it's still more difficult to hide your body with these things alone.
"This is it. Add said as he motioned for Eclipse Moon to sit down against the wall, then pointed to the back of the boxes, "We're hiding here." ”
"That's ...... Is it really okay?" Eclipse looked at the box, then at Add, "This gap is too big, isn't it...... Shall we put it together a little tighter?"
"No, that would make people suspicious. As he spoke, Add walked over to the box and pulled out a magic ball the size of a peanut, pulling it apart.
A lilac magic circle unfolded.
"...... this?"
"You'll find out in a moment. ”
Add took the magic circle and walked up and down around the wooden boxes for a while;
Finally, Add placed the magic circle in the open space in the middle of the wooden boxes, "Alright, done." ”
"This ...... Will it work?"
Eddie obviously didn't intend to explain in words, he squeezed through the cracks in the wooden boxes, and walked into the middle of the wooden boxes—
Then, Eclipse Moon saw Add's figure magically disappear from his eyes.
He did walk in...... Eclipse Moon rubbed her eyes, and then looked more carefully;
Now, there is indeed nothing in the open space between the wooden boxes......
