Chapter 97: Hardening the South Gate (Third Update)
Because so many of the people of Morning Glory wanted to leave Morning Glory Town, the three gates were under martial law.
Those who want to leave the city must go to the city lord's mansion to pay a huge amount of exit tax, which is as high as two gold dragons.
Except for a few wealthy merchants, not many families can afford to pay two golden dragons.
The rich peasant families, who barely had two golden dragons, were not willing to pay the money, and they should continue to run this shabby town rather than leave Morning Glory Town.
At the very least, the viscount didn't kill them all, and the viscount dealt with the ordinary townspeople who had rebelled.
After the standing lion soldier roared a few times, his mood dropped, and began to recall the information released by the commander.
So far, there are a thousand orcs in Morning Glory who want to escape the town, either lured by money or attracted by the illusory and unreal treatment of work, which shows how horrific this blatant poaching operation is.
Morning Glory Town is in the post-disaster construction period, and the loss of so many townspeople will make the town's population smaller, and the aftermath work will be greatly delayed.
Although their viscount was not particularly distressed, he was annoyed by the nobles who saw the small village jumping in front of him.
You want to escape to Datie Village, right, the angry viscount is not allowed, see who dares to go.
"This time it should be fake news, not a single orc." The mood of the guarded lion soldier who had just settled down fluctuated again, and he wanted to roar loudly.
The scarcity of the Templars was not without reason, and the emotional rant made many reservists dare to yell at their commanders.
If you encounter a plummeting commander, there is a high probability that the reservists will fall to the ground, contributing to the death rate of the reservists.
It was also at this time that the lion soldiers, who were so hot that their heads exploded, heard the sound of rolling wheels.
On the road leading to the city gate, the black carriage was slowly transported to the city gate, and an arm protruded from the cloth window of the carriage, holding a high-grade letter in a parchment roll.
"Hello, I'm the rich merchant Dulles, this is the pass book issued by the City Lord's Mansion, please check it."
The lion soldier, whose forehead continued to sweat, was hot, and his temper was extremely irritable, and he shouted: "Dulles, please lift the curtain!" ”
This roar woke up the lion soldiers patrolling the wall, and all eyes were on the carriage.
"Okay." A reassuring voice sounded in the carriage.
Since you dare to lift the curtain, you should not be a traitor.
However, before the last moment of the unveiling, the lion soldiers did not dare to relax, and they all watched the carriage intently.
As everyone stared at the carriage, the defensive attention on the far side of the wall dropped to freezing, and no one saw the two yellow-green thorny orcs charging quickly.
They wore tight-fitting field combat uniforms, with tightened hoods on their ropes, and their legs strides long and fast, like trapezes on the track of a 100-meter race, with a terrifying speed of thirteen meters per second, breaking through the sprinting limit of ordinary orcs.
By the time the other orcs noticed the two assassins, they had already run to the bottom of the city.
The lion man screamed, his hand holding the weapon trembled unconsciously, and he screamed: "The orcs are coming, pay attention, pay attention!" ”
"They're fast, they're the Awakened, be careful, don't fight with the Awakened!"
Someone took out a hard bow and wanted to shoot people with a brute bow, but saw that the two sprinters did not stop under the wall, and jumped to a height of more than four meters with the strength of their feet.
"Wait for the Templars, wait for the Templars!"
As a Templar reservist, he knew all the stats of the Awakened, among which the Templars who could jump up to four meters tall were in their prime, could hit tens, and could even use their power to dodge arrows.
He screamed, fear written all over his face.
Lightning-fast speed is the nightmare of all ordinary lion soldiers.
There were four Templars in the prime of life at the gates, and they stopped trying to get close to the carriage and quickly supported the orcs.
As the Templars left, the Assassins in the carriage sprang out in an instant, and they were lightning fast, swooping down on the enemy in front of them, and facing the ordinary lion soldiers.
The lion man hurriedly set up his sword to defend, but unexpectedly, the man's hand shook, and the Hidden Blade popped out, violently stabbing the throat, and the lion soldier died directly.
The Templars turned back and measured the situation, their faces furious.
There were at least ten awakened people hidden in that carriage, and each of them had powerful explosive power in their muscles, which showed that they had grown well after awakening.
"Let's go!"
The Templars roared out of the way, invisible sonic waves opening the way, slightly intimidating the group of carriage assassins, and fled in the opposite direction along the wall.
There were not many Templars left in Altair, and the kingdom was reluctant to spend any more energy on managing the dilapidated town, throwing more of their elite into the frontier to defend the walls of the country.
The Assassins pursued after him, and some Assassins ran out of the wall in front of the Templars, jumping onto the wall to form a sandwich.
"What race are these people?" The Templars wanted to know what their innate abilities were, but their minds were empty.
"I don't know."
The four Templars had sweat on their foreheads, and the hoods on their heads were tied tightly with ropes, so they couldn't see their ears, and their tails were tucked into their straitjackets, making it impossible to tell each other's race.
The four lion soldiers were back to back with each other, raising their swords to perform the unique sword technique of the Templar Lion Rider, their feet as steady as a mountain, and their hands were overdrawn with muscle strength, dancing in an impenetrable chaotic sword technique.
If the enemy dares to fight them, they will be shaken open with a long knife and then stabbed to death.
But the assassins didn't use their knives, and they suddenly disappeared from three meters away, only thin lines of black shadows flashed, causing the four Templars to chuckle in their hearts.
"Oops!"
"It's a cat-eared clan!" The Templars remembered the elusive talent of the Cat-Eared Clan, and their hearts and minds were about to pop out.
Four flashes of silver light flashed before their eyes, and the vision of the four Templars in the prime of life swirled around, seeing the stone face of the city wall farther and closer to them.
Bang!
The skull fell to the ground, and they saw their own bodies, and saw the flattened blood in their necks, and the blood rained down.
After the four assassins used the Shadow Flash skill, they looked at the city gate, and the awakened entered the flock like a tiger, passing by the enemy in a dazzling way, cutting melons and chopping vegetables.
"It turns out that the lion soldiers are so weak, and they are useless among more than a hundred people." Bell smiled.
Each wall was patrolled with more than a hundred lion soldiers, and the port area had no walls, which was the most difficult to defend, and the viscount invested more than three hundred troops to defend it.
Unexpectedly, the assassins of Tomorrow Town turned into Spartan warriors, and after a wave of surprise attacks, they launched a frontal and tough attack, and the situation was reversed.
After killing all the lion soldiers guarding the gates, the Assassins pulled out three fireworks sticks from their carriages.
This item was a rare stock in the Viscount's warehouse in Morning Glory Town, and after the Assassins stole it from the warehouse, they decided to use the fireworks as a liberation signal to guide the townspeople to escape from Morning Glory.
"Light the fireworks and go back to the village!" Bell excitedly blew a long whistle.
"Bell, it's time to go back to town, not to the village."
"Oh, sorry, it's Tomorrowtown now." Belhaha laughed.
Sou!
Three fireworks flew into the sky one after another, exploding into three white fireworks in the air.
The sun is blazing, and the townspeople can barely see the white fireworks, but the unique explosion sound of the fireworks attracts the orcs in the town.
"Fireworks!"
"This is the horn of the assembly, the direction is at the south city gate, rush!"
"Rush Rush!"
The orcs, who had already packed their luggage, became restless and rushed to the south gate en masse.
On the way to escape, a lion soldier rushed out to maintain order, and suddenly a silver light flashed, and he was assassinated with a hidden blade in the crowd.
When the orcs saw the lion soldier die, fear and excitement filled their hearts.
It's really not okay not to run this time, and the viscount will definitely not let go of these traitors.
