The monsters lurking in the ruins were much larger than the one that Julian had encountered on the road, and their appearance was even uglier and more terrifying.

It feels like people, animals, and trees are randomly chopped into strange-shaped blocks, and then randomly assembled and connected together through roots and nodules.

Such a big lump, if you want to move, you can only use a roll, even if there are tentacles, it can't go anywhere.

At the same time, its habit of lurking in the ruins is not difficult to understand at all, and there are many similar aquatic creatures: the main body lurks in the sand, showing its tentacles, shaking like a bait, and when the prey approaches, it suddenly has tentacles.

The tentacles look hideous, most of them the size of an adult's arm, with blade-like stingers on them, and they are rebellious like scales, and the monster knows when to let these stingers stand up and when to keep them attached to the tentacles.

The tentacles flapped and swirled, but anyone who came close was taken care of by Hammerstone and Julian.

Julian's broadsword has a very pure sharp light, it is a kind of white and blue light, giving people a sense of coldness, and until now, there are no tentacles that this sword has been constantly cutting.

The hammerstone's axe was equally sharp, and what he attached to the weapon was the power of flame, and the more the two axes struck and rubbed, the brighter they became, and the blades of the axes were as hot and glowing as if they were burned red, and the two axes were danced by him like the wind, and from a distance, they looked like a wheel of flames, constantly severing the tentacles that came from the attack.

Todd seems to be the least present at first glance, but it's actually the opposite. His ruler shot not ordinary arrows, but energy arrows.

His right hand with a bow has a very peculiar finger cover, which looks like a special armor for bows and arrows, and the delicate metal armor protects the index finger, middle finger, and thumb, and protects the fingers when the string is drawn, but in fact it is a magic item, which is used to assist in the formation of energy arrows.

The energy arrows he shot were as slender as light thorns, with a very high frequency, hitting the key points of the tentacles every time, and forming an energy impact, and the vision was flexible enough, and he could clearly see that there was light spreading along the tentacles after the shot.

Once this happens, the tentacles will inevitably stiffen, and the otherwise powerful swing will suddenly be stripped of its strength, and it will be slowly sent to Julian and Hammerstone to be cut down.

So, Todd is the one who sets the scene, he is responsible for controlling the pace of the battle, so that the monsters are not powerful, and Julian and Hammerstone can slash and slash.

The people behind the town wall are a little far away, and their professional ability is also poor, and they can't see the doorway inside, just thinking that the three of them are in danger, and if one is not careful, their lives are in danger at any time.

"Oops! It's so dangerous, my heart is about to jump out when I see it! ”

"They were blocked by monsters, are they dead, okay, rushed out again!"

"That's not going to work, you can't be so lucky all the time!"

"God of light, bless these people to come in safely." ……

The townsfolk did not dare to go out to meet the rescue, they had been completely intimidated by the monsters, and they were left to suffer here through the protection of their faith. Now it is the three of them with moral support.

For the three Julians, this was not a bloody battle, but a fierce fight of high intensity and slightly longer duration.

The three of them are actually the kind of people who have war syndrome, they are no longer able to adapt to the life of ordinary people, do ordinary jobs, lack a sense of value, and cannot do it, which is why they chose to become witchers.

Not afraid of death, the more they fight, the more crazy they become, but they still have their senses, it can be said that they are the kind of legendary born warriors.

As an archmage-level existence, its biggest characteristic is that it is introverted and subtle. To put it simply, the ability to control power is excellent.

This is not the case with high-level fighters, they are more like sharp blades out of the sheath, with their edges exposed. Like the 200 officers and soldiers under Xu Changqing's direct brainwashing, they are currently at this stage.

Under the transformation of the force of nature, their strength is not lower than that of the witchers, and even when it comes to physiognomy, they have a higher affinity with the force of nature. However, the high degree of harmony between the soul of nature and nature does not mean that the soul is strong, and compared with the combat veterans of Julian and others, they are still significantly inferior.

The three of Julian didn't open up, let alone explode, in a way that seemed to be fierce, but did not use any sharp means, swords and axes rushed all the way through the ruins area, and directly climbed over the town wall about 6 meters high, and entered the inner town of Gaoshi Town.

The monsters didn't chase anymore, they picked up the tentacles that had been cut off by the trio, and inserted them into their bodies very carelessly, and after a while, the tentacles came alive, and then they dive back into the ruins.

Todd frowned, and Hammerstone spat out, "Damn, it's in vain." Uncle thought that the burnt section of the fire axe could not be recovered, but he didn't expect that his mother was a wicker, and he could be inserted anywhere, and he would live if he inserted it! ”

Julian looked at the inner city, and he said in his heart: "Monsters really don't attack the inner city, there is really a doorway here." ”……

It got dark earlier than the three had expected, for the rain began to fall again before the sun set.

The people of Gaoshi Town call it rotten rain, and they think that every time it falls, the land is barren.

"That's not the case, Carathan doesn't have so much rain every year, and even less rain, but if you look at it now, one after another, it's always wet, and the crops are rotten."

I don't know if it's because the three of Julian are more able to fight face, but the people here are very talkative. And as soon as he started talking, he didn't stop, as if pouring bitter water, he told the three of them all kinds of abnormalities.

There is indeed some more weighty information in it, such as being sheltered by the god of light, and monsters rarely attack. For example, the undead and the dead will not be affected by monsters, so the death mage who controls the soul of the corpse has gradually become the savior profession of this world.

"How long have you been stuck here?" Todd asked

"It's been more than half a year."

"And what do you eat?" Hammerstone asked.

"Everything you can eat."

"There's no way to go on like this!?" Julian said, looking at the people with dishes on their faces.

"We have sent several rescue squads, and the elite are exhausted, and we can only wait for reinforcements from the lord or the kingdom, or the mercy of the god of light."

The three of them had nothing to say, and the townspeople of Gaoshi who were forced into a desperate situation were indeed miserable, and the three of them were already more hard-hearted when they asked themselves, but they still couldn't help but feel sympathy and pity, especially the eyes of the children.

"No, I'd rather skip dinner tonight than do something!" Hammerstone was the first to say so.

As a result, the rations carried by the three were contributed.

This ration was originally spare, and there was not much, but the three of them belonged to the Lord who had no meat, and the people here had not eaten meat for a long time, and these dried meat were chopped into dices, added to the cauldron, and boiled with a small amount of grain, which was a very good meal.

Julian privately told Todd and Hammerstone: "They have reached the point of exhaustion, and they are already eating food, and even if the kingdom's army comes, it will be difficult to save them." Between now and next year's harvest, this is not a short period of time. ”

"Lord Time should be able to help them." Hammerstone said.

Todd said, "You didn't understand what Julian meant. Julian is saying that there are many situations like this, I don't know how many, after all, it has been nearly a year since the monster invasion, how much can Lord Time save? It's almost an unsolvable game. ”

"But we have to try as best we can, don't we? Let them die like this, it will be a regret for our whole life. ”

Julian was silent, Todd was silent. After a while, Julian said: "I can faintly feel some of the thoughts of Lord Time, he has no interest in being a savior, and he basically will not change his original intention for such a bad thing. We have come this time to remove the scourge, and this is the greatest salvation, and it is up to the people to take care of the rest. ”

What do you mean by that? Will the Lord of Time be saved if he dies? "Hammerstone has a few looks.

Todd actually agrees with Julian's analysis, through what Xu Changqing has done in the past, he analyzes that this strong man is very self-conscious, does not care about the world's vision, often starts from his own needs, and likes the simplest route to do things.

For example, killing monsters is killing monsters, everything is centered on it, and everything done is to better protect the killing of monsters. Well, what are these populaces? Even they are gorgeous cannon fodder, what use can these people have? Xu Changqing is high, out of sight and out of mind, and may not be able to save these people.

In front of him are the closest brothers, he candidly said his analysis, and finally said: "But we still have to try, just like Hammerstone said, there are some things, can be done but not done, it will be a lifetime of uneasiness." ”

Julian finally agreed, and the trio used the magic recording stone they had been given to them before they left in High Rock, something similar to a disposable camera, intended to get a video of Kabank, such as the important but not very easy to describe in words.

As a result, the three of them used it to record the tragic situation of the people of Gaoshi Town.

"You don't have to be deliberate, you can do whatever you want. We will show this information to my lord tomorrow. Whether or not our Lord is willing to save you depends on your creation. ”

There is no suspense, these video materials fell into the hands of Xu Changqing, just the next morning.

For this reason, the three of Julian also took some responsibility, because Xu Changqing said before that there was nothing important and it was forbidden to disturb him, and whether this matter was important or not had to be decided by Xu Changqing.

Xu Changqing is not in a good mood, but it is not very bad either. Weapons development has run into obstacles. It's almost inevitable, this kind of operation is never a wish, and you can succeed with a pat on the head.

However, the unexpected height of such a striking method as the Thunder Spear can be regarded as making up for his failure in research and development.

Just thinking about investing in a new round of research and development today, Lucien came to the door with Julian and the three of them.

"I know that once you enter the task state, there will always be such and such things, and it is difficult to have time to rectify and engage in research and development." Xu Changqing didn't lose his temper at the three of them because of this, he still watched the video patiently. Not only the recent situation of the townspeople of Takaishi, but also the monsters outside the city.

After reading it, he said to the three people: "I understand your feelings. But I must point out the part of this that I cannot tolerate. In a way, you're engaging in a moral kidnapping. Instead of doing your job, you carried out a moral kidnapping operation according to your own preferences. ”

Xu Changqing said, expressing his displeasure, in his domain, he is as powerful as a god, his anger, that is, natural anger, is the all-round targeting and oppression of the environment, that is an alternative, but it is by no means inferior to the oppressive force that still puts people in space, even if it is just for a moment, it still makes the three of them have a terrifying feeling of being killed once.

"This is the first time and the last time. Explain your tasks, try to do them well, and don't bring too much subjective emotions into the tasks. This is the duty of being a person and doing things. Do you understand? ”

"Understood, sir!"

Xu Changqing left the seat, strode out, and when he passed the location of the three people, he said, "Keep up." ”

The three of them followed Xu Changqing to the outside of the hall, and Xu Changqing casually raised his hand and grabbed it, wanting to catch Duoyun down as a vehicle.

He is a native of the Celestial Empire, and he is influenced by the gods and Journey to the West in terms of mythology, and subconsciously thinks that riding the clouds and driving the fog is very high, and driving the black wind is generally a demon road.

As a result, now this grasp has found a problem.

"Hah, that's kind of interesting. I can still play like this! ”……
