Chapter Forty-Nine: Little Nag's Premonition
It was late at night, and there was a devil's roar outside, and little Gna was too frightened to sleep, he opened his eyes wide to look at the dim roof, the dim light next to the wooden bed flickered, and the faint light could not illuminate the whole room, and the five-year-old little Gna felt that where the light did not illuminate, it seemed that a man-eating demon would emerge in the next moment.
Little Gna's father had been killed by the devil outside, and just a few days ago in the city, the lord deceived him and said that his father had just gone out on a long journey, but he did not know that he was hiding in the pyre, and he had seen his father's bloody body fall from the city wall.
Some soldiers rushed to carry away his father's body, and then his mother came back with red eyes, and she hugged little Gna and wept silently, because the man who loved her the most was gone, and the upright and brave man left behind orphans and widows, and the sky seemed to fall.
From time to time, there are soldiers on the city wall who can't support the fierce attacks of the monsters, or are torn apart by the claws of the monsters, or fall down from the head of the city with all their strength, since the iron-backed bear king lord was raided by humans, the monsters have become crazy, groups of flying monsters ignore their own lives, like bombers that never stop, swooping down from the sky, the magic shield of Blizzard City is blooming one by one, the smooth magic shield is like an umbrella on a rainy day, the sticky blood rain condenses into a small river and flows down from mid-air, and the stench by the city wall is disgusting。
Countless demonic beasts rushed from the sky, like waves of tide crashing on the merciless rocks, even if they were crushed in the next moment, their crazy footsteps would not stop for a moment. The muddy plasma accumulated into small lakes again and again, and it was not long before the fire magic that fell from the sky steamed the ground dry, and the cycle continued, and the heaven and earth were filled with the smell of doom.
The commander-in-chief, Admiral Yarman, inspected the battle situation of the city defense at the head of the city, and the magic protection of Blizzard City was tested by the sea of Warcraft for more than half a month, and occasionally Warcraft came in from the small mouth of the breakthrough, Blizzard City was too big, and the magic protection could not completely isolate the attack of Warcraft.
It is like a fishing net for catching a net, from the beginning without any flaws, to now it can only defend against powerful demonic beasts, and the strength of the demonic beasts that have not reached that critical point will inevitably have omissions, this is the careful consideration of the ninth-order demon master of Blizzard City, Gegil Demon Array Master, before making a difficult decision.
Because of the increasingly high-intensity attack of the Blizzard, the protection of the blizzard can no longer be completely protected, and can only make sacrifices in certain aspects, such as strengthening the binding nature of some magic, changing the rules of heaven and earth in a short time, so that the city of the blizzard can be slower, yes, this castle that has been strengthened by humans for hundreds of years has still not been able to prevent the attack of this Warcraft, which is a problem that the commander of Blizzard City should clearly recognize.
"The situation is not optimistic, and we have to prepare for the worst. Old Magister Bogsindra frowned and said, the people of Blizzard City couldn't find anyone more qualified to speak than him, because he was a living fossil that survived the last Warcraft catastrophe, and the people present couldn't find anyone who knew more about Warcraft than him, and even his old man was a little pessimistic about the battle situation.
Admiral Yarman of course knew better that the soldiers in the city had suffered a large number of casualties since three days ago, and a large number of flying demonic beasts rushed in from the magic protection gap, causing serious disturbances in the west of the city, even if the command sent people to deal with those demonic beasts in time, and at the same time blocked the news, the panic about the destruction of the city still spread among the crowd.
In the past few days, more and more flying demonic beasts have attacked from the sky, and the soldiers are exhausted, and they must always keep their eyes open to the danger of flying demonic beasts in mid-air, and maybe at any time a demonic beast will come out of mid-air and take their lives.
The line between day and night is blurred, and whenever the sky above Blizzard City is shrouded in shadows, it seems to be a lonely city surrounded by demonic beasts, and in fact, it is the same.
Everyone tensed their nerves, Admiral Yarman had not closed his eyes for two days and one night, and the magic communication with the imperial capital had been cut off three days ago, and the footprints of human activities could no longer be seen within a radius of a hundred miles, either he had already fled or fallen into the mouth of the demonic beast.
Long Tianyou heard the howl of the demonic beasts outside the city, and he had retreated to the city for three days to rest, and the task of beheading the team was unsuccessful.
That night, he lay on the bed and tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, and when he closed his eyes, it seemed that the heroic scene of his brothers was dying, so he simply got up and relaxed.
At the same time, a large wave of gold-loving rats are along the blood stains of the dark passage, clicking and quickly gnawing the metal iron blocks blocking the passage, these guys who live on metal are the largest of more than ten meters, the small ones are only the size of fists, without exception, they all have sharp teeth, even the enchanted dark magic stones can't stop their crazy nature of burrowing, several passages to the city are being opened, and humans don't know!
Little Gna always felt that the devil outside the city was going to come in and eat people, and his heart was as uncomfortable as being eaten by a little ant. He struggled to look at the ground beneath his feet with wide eyes, as if something was going to emerge from the ground, and it was his instinct, like the days before his father's death, when he dreamed of the blurred images of his loved ones every day.
As if to confirm little Gna's hunch, a mouse came out of the dirt in the corner, its bony little eyes staring at the living people and squeaking, and little Gna hurried to wake up his mother, who was exhausted by his father's funeral.
"Grandma, the man-eating devil has entered the city, let's run!" The thin mother was shaken awake, and when she saw her son's anxious expression, she thought it was just the helplessness of the child losing his father!
"It's just a little mouse, what's so scary, watch Grandma drive it away. With words of comfort, she picked up the broom by the door and prepared to scare the little mouse away.
The little mouse quickly dodged the beating of the broom, this unusual mouse seemed not to be afraid of people at all, the red eyes and sharp claws, and the previous house mouse was completely timid, it quickly jumped up and bit the hostess's hand, the squeak was louder, and at the same time one by one the little mice came out of the ground one after another, and soon more than twenty mice circled around the people, ready to jump up and hurt people.
Little Gnar clung to the hem of his mother's garment, pale, and his mother became nervous, and spread her arms like an old hen protecting her chicks, with a broom and dustpan in her hands, and she could not bother to deal with the bite in her hands, and more and more rats of various sizes came out, staring restlessly at the prey in front of them.
Finally the number of gold-loving rats increased to dozens, they no longer cared about the weak weapons in the hands of the hostess, they all rushed to attack, little Gna's mother desperately waved the lethal tools in her hand, and soon she was bitten out of several bleeding wounds, in a panic her broom knocked over the oil lamp not far from the bed, the oil burned the old quilt on the bed, the broom in her hand was also burned, taking advantage of the heat of the flames, these gold-loving rats accustomed to the darkness were temporarily forced to retreat, she took little Gna and hurriedly escaped out of the house.
The streets and alleys were filled with panicked civilians, many with blood stains from bite wounds, and from time to time they were reminded by the screams before they died, that the moment of danger was coming!
