With the terrifying adaptability of those monsters, the Colchu Mountains in the west can't stop them at all, no wonder they suddenly disappeared in the Dawn Continent a few days ago, it turned out that they quietly crossed the natural barrier in the west of Crow City, and quietly touched the northern border, at the foot of the mountain, Halsta and Link Village have lost contact, forty miles for those monsters are just a blink of an eye, in other words, from now on, they may appear outside Raven City at any time.

Warren realized the seriousness of the problem and immediately made a decision, instructing Hollins, "Close the gates immediately, and no one will be allowed to enter or leave." ”

The commander's heart sank, "What about the two cavalry squads in the south and the villages and scouts in the west?"

"Give them an order not to go back to Crow City, and to evacuate directly to the east, to Storm's Breath, seventy miles away. Warren's voice was a little cold.

"This ......" the commander opened his mouth, a little hesitant, from the White Crow City to the Storm's Rest Castle all the way to the plains, even if you ride a horse, it is difficult to run past those monsters from the abyss, not to mention those who walk, leaving the castle without the protection of the city walls, it is good that one of these ten people survives, Warren's order is equivalent to abandoning this part of the people.

Sheriff Hollins knew that it was powerful, and had already issued an order to close the city gate as soon as possible, but there was an accident when it was executed, and at this time at least 5,000 people had gathered at the city gate to prepare to leave the city.

Hollins hurriedly turned around, directing the guards to help maintain order and clear the blockage, but at this moment, there was a scream from the woods not far away, and then he saw two bloodied men staggering out of it, scratching their bodies as they ran, and their faces were full of horror.

The sheriff had already recognized one of them as a scout he had sent to the south, and he was also a brave man in the army, but now his behavior was very different from the past, not only did he lose his horse, but he didn't even know where the sword and armor he had always carried with him were lost.

At this moment, the two of them were only half a mile away from the gate of White Crow City, and they were about to rush over, and the commander was still considering whether to send someone to meet them, and from their mouths, he might be able to ask what was going on in the villages to the west.

As a result, the next moment, the scout who was running at the front of the scout fell to the ground with his feet weak, and everyone realized that there was a creature lying on his back, which looked like a monkey, but was smaller than an ordinary monkey, and there was a scorpion's tail behind him, which was deeply inserted into the scout's spine, sucking the bone marrow inside, and the latter seemed to have used up the last of his strength, and never got up again after falling.

"Monkey scorpion. Some scholars recognized the little monster, and their expressions couldn't help but change greatly, monkey scorpions feed on bone marrow, and the combat power of a single one is not too strong, only the second order, but a group of monkey scorpions is a disaster even in the abyss, they are not afraid of death, and cooperate tacitly, using wolf pack tactics to hunt food, the tail needle behind the butt can easily poke into the bones of the prey, and once these little monsters are on the body, they will not leave without sucking the bone marrow dry, and the prey will be extremely painful in this process.

Therefore, except for a few monsters in the abyss, no one wants to provoke these little things.

The monkey scorpion wagged its tail unsatisfied, and soon pounced on the second person, that guy should just be a villager from a nearby village, and his performance was even more unbearable, he didn't even have the courage to resist, he was paralyzed to the ground in fright, and could only let out a terrible scream.

Seeing this terrifying scene, the people nearby were all stunned, and then the people who had already left the city began to squeeze into the city like crazy, and the people who were ready to go out of the city were also desperately retreating, although the guards were still trying to perform their duties and maintain order, but to no avail, most of the ordinary people lost their minds in the face of death, the crowd screamed and squeezed into a ball, blocking the already wide city gate, and the people behind were constantly pushing the people in front, and some people fell in the crowd, and they couldn't stand up again.

Warren pulled Hollins by the collar and yelled, "Close the door, are you deaf, close the door for Lao Tzu!"

If the rumors are true, the crow city will face an army of monsters, the initial estimate is about 4,000, and the defenders, militia and all the forces that can fight in the city are only less than 2,000 people, and all the only things they can rely on are the relatively strong walls under their feet.

Warren is from the military, not good at the economy, but he still attaches great importance to defense, during the period when he was the city lord, he would allocate money to strengthen the city wall almost every year, because there has been no war in the Dawn Continent for a long time, and many people have criticized it, and he is now extremely glad that he made the decision under pressure before, if it were not for this city wall, tens of thousands of people in the city would probably be unable to escape death this time.

And what he has to do now is to close the city gate before those monsters arrive, in this situation, once the war starts, Warren will not have the extra manpower to take care of the situation in the city, as long as a monster mixes in, it will be fatal to the remaining residents of the city, so Warren asked Hollins to close the door in cold blood.

The latter also reacted at this time, knowing that when it came to the moment of life and death, if the city gate could not fall, the White Crow City would not be able to hold out for a day, the fat sheriff gritted his teeth and shouted, "All the guards are there, retreat, open the magic array under the city!"

This magic array was originally intended for intruders, and after opening, dozens of wind blades shot out from the city wall, and these wind blades fell in the dense crowd and caused amazing damage, but in just one breath, at least hundreds of civilians were in different places, and the blood spilled stained the ground under their feet, and after the wind blades, the city gate turned into a slaughterhouse, with severed limbs and wails everywhere.

The vast majority of the people still couldn't believe what was happening in front of them, the defenders of the city suddenly attacked and slaughtered the innocent civilians who were unarmed, and when they realized what had happened, the crowd was shocked by the cruel sight and finally began to flee in the opposite direction, Hollins looked at the scattered civilians, and his heart was a little unbearable.

These people don't know how many monsters are coming this time, and it is almost impossible to survive if they are only starting to flee north, but if they don't give up these two or three thousand civilians, the entire White Crow City will be buried together, and Hollins has not really known his boss until today, Warren is worthy of being a person who has been trained in the army, killing decisively, and once he makes a decision, he will not hesitate to execute.

The garrison took this opportunity to arrive at the city gate, where there was now an obvious no-man's land, the garrison divided some men to guard the monkey scorpion outside the city, and the other part hurried to clean up the corpses and debris, and after seven minutes the gate fell, the crow city was temporarily through the current first round of crisis.

And what awaits them next will be an even more brutal offensive and defensive battle.
