Chapter 359: Sun-Chasing City (Part II)
Since she learned that the reinforcements were Archbishop Benedictas, Lias's heart that had been hanging was also relieved.
The fact that the empire was able to send such an important figure over was naturally the importance of the southern border, and it also showed that at least for the time being, the target of the king of the Rhine was not himself, which was the best news for the fledgling Lias.
Before they fully form an independent force, they can continue to develop freely.
And a character like Benedictas is loved no matter which city he goes to, which can also explain why the other party will come so slowly, it is estimated that every city is personally entertained by the city lord, and then stay for a few days, especially when it rains in the south, the stop time may be longer.
Unlike Lias, who hurried all the way, many times she hurried over without even entering the city she was passing by.
Two more days passed.
It is good news for the soldiers and civilians in the camp every day, and I heard from the airship patrols who went to explore the way to report that the flood has basically been pushed out of the city, and if you want to go back, you must be prepared today.
Before Lias asked the generals of Sunhunt City in a casual chat, it is said that these are formulated for going to the southern wilderness, as long as the airship flies high enough, the beasts on the ground will not be able to attack them, even the earth demons can't, so it is a very safe means of transportation, but the fuel is limited and can only fly into the wilderness for more than ten miles.
There are very few other races in that area.
The noise outside the tent was loud and loud inside.
"General, our troops' tents are almost finished, do you see any other orders?" said Nikos' voice from outside the tent.
"Okay, get all our supplies in order and be ready to go. Lias replied as she sorted out her things, some drawings and daily necessities, which she carried with her.
In the previous march, because they were all resting for a night, many of them were not taken out, and now they are all taken out after settling in the camp.
It's also a special hassle to put away.
Wang Chu watched as Lias put away a large bag of things in front of him.
Aren't we on the march, what are you carrying...... At this time, the other party suddenly turned his head to look at him.
"Cam, you come to help, too! Don't be lazy there, you can help me with things, but every time you run to my shoulder and be lazy. Lias looked at herself disapprehendedly.
Well, that's what you found out too.
A cloth bag is placed in front of him, like a wall in the squirrel's field of vision.
"You can help me get this bag. ”
Alas, I'd better go and explore the way, that kind of errand is more suitable for me...... Transformed into a raven, she flew directly out of the camp, ignoring how Lias called behind her.
How can this kind of precedent be opened, and I still have the form of a giant bear and a wild deer, if I do this in the future...... Don't open, don't open.
Today's camp on this hilltop finally felt like it was going to move back to the city, and most of the people couldn't wait to return to their homes, and hurriedly put away their tents as soon as they heard that the time of departure was today.
Some of the other materials had already been packed up two days ago, just waiting for the time for the Theron City Lord to definitely go back.
From morning until noon, the camp was fully packed, and Theron led the group down the Sunset Mountains......
"Alright, let's go!"
The soldiers at the front shouted loudly, and then passed back one by one.
Roar!
The whole team burst into excited shouts, starting from the front carriage to move, and the team of nearly 100,000 soldiers and civilians wanted to walk in the direction of the city.
The most emperor-leading general, Lias, of course, is also at the forefront of the escort.
"General Lias, why didn't you see Your Excellency the God of Ravens? Theron's pastor, Andrea, noticed that the crows or squirrels that had been perched on each other's shoulders were gone.
"Him!" recalls the scene when Cam 'escaped' just now, and in the end it was Nicos who came to help him get it.
"Who knows, let's go play. "I scolded Cam all over again in my heart, isn't it just a little something, and he won't help me get it, but his expression has to pretend to be calm.
Burst~
"Running to play? He's really interesting. Andrea replied with a smile.
Suddenly I looked up and saw a place in the sky.
"Well, not there. ”
A few people around looked up to see that it had been a long time since they had seen a flying animal in the area, and this was the first bird to appear in a few months, and it was still a crow, and it was only the one in the camp.
Lias looked up, and sure enough, it was Cam.
Hmph, he didn't run too far......
The crow flew at the front of the group, looking like it was clearing the way for the team.
Wang Chu overlooked the entire team from the sky, almost 100,000 soldiers and civilians, this is the first batch of people, if the camps on other hills come down, I'm afraid there will be a million people.
That's a lot of people, for a disaster-stricken city.
There was still a lot of mud on the road, and it is said that on the day the flood receded, Theron sent troops and magicians to clear the road, and to use magic to dry the mud where it really couldn't be done, so that at least the team could walk.
So it's all smooth all the way out.
The burnt dry mud raised the pavement by a layer, especially the ditches that had been deep were almost filled in, full of stumps and dead animals, houses washed away by the water, and dead people.
The body has long been soaked in the water, and some of them have been eaten by the fish until only clothes and bones remain, and even if they are still intact, they are just a mass of carrion, which emits a stench in the sun.
Wang Chu could hear someone crying quietly in the team, and gradually the crying began to increase as if he was infected.
Theron didn't particularly stop it.
The destruction of homes and the loss of loved ones can only be filled with time, but fortunately they can still be remembered by those who are alive.
The Sunset Mountains are not far from Sunset City, and the team sets off at noon. Wang Chu calculated for a while, and after a few hours, he would already be able to see the walls of the Rising Sun City.
This time, judging from the road surface, it was a huge city wall fifty or sixty meters high.
Lias was probably deflated and simply flew down.
Docked again on top of the horse's head......
In the distance, there were countless corpses piled up under the city wall, all of them were floating corpses that had been washed up by the flood to the side of the city wall, and now that the flood water had receded, they were piled up in large numbers at the city gate, and they could be seen from a long distance.
Tens of thousands, piled up at the door like a mountain of corpses.
"Oh my God. May the gods give their souls rest. Andrea closed her eyes and prayed.
Seeing this, the entire team fell silent. 2k reading web
