Chapter 456: Underground Worms

Just as Stannis had not recovered from the shock, he heard Hillier's voice behind him, " These are the Scab Monsters, also known as the Kton Depp people, from the bloodthirsty race of the underground world, they are also the most fanatical servant race serving the dark gods, I heard that they are some soft torso basically worm-like creatures underground, but when they want to invade the overworld world, they will possess the body of any race to manipulate their will and body, and at the same time, they will condense a layer of scabs that are harder than steel on the host, which is also the origin of the name Scab Monster. ”

Stannis suddenly remembered the parasitic timberwolves he had encountered at the edge of the forest a long time ago, and it seemed that they had been possessed by such monsters.

"Then what the hell are they coming from! Why would they not dig holes in the ground, but run to the ground to burn and loot?" Stannis reverted to being the ignorant Xilu Xiaobai.

Hillier looked at him with a strange gaze, as if he were looking at an idiot again, "Don't you know the Kuroshio?"

"Of course you know, isn't the so-called Kuroshio the end of the world? Isn't the appearance of those Chaos Folk already a foreshadowing of this? But does it have anything to do with this underground alien creature?"

At this time, Robert on the side hurriedly joined in, so as not to be a goof, "Boss, I know that your brain is a little bad because of the big blow these days, have you forgotten! The main force of every Kuroshio invasion is the parasitic army of these Ketoni Depps! And the corpse tide is just a prelude." ”

After his reminder, the memory in the corner of Stannis's brain was finally revealed, and indeed, in the song of the Kuroshio in the chanting, the apocalyptic scene has been written, first the dead are resurrected and walk on the earth, which is the corresponding tide of corpses, then the boulder appears to destroy the living beings, which is the corresponding divine seal, and finally the earth cracks, and the black tide of death floods the earth like pus, killing all living beings, which is undoubtedly the black army that is now appearing under the city.

After sorting it all out, Stannis discovers that the end is not a legend, and the end of the world is on the way!

"This ...... What the hell is going on, how good I will encounter the last step of the legendary end times, I thought that this apocalypse will take seventy or eighty years from the appearance of signs to the real occurrence, at least let me spend this life comfortably and then let the world end, how can it break out in less than half a year, my luck is too bad!" Stannis was a little difficult to accept, his own crossing was miserable enough, and after going through so many things, he finally became the king of Tanis, but before his ass was hot, he was told that he was facing a catastrophe that would destroy the whole world, which he couldn't accept anyway.

But no matter how much he complained, it would be useless, because the disaster had indeed happened in front of him, and the only thing he could do was to run away and save himself!

Just as he felt a sense of pride that the heavens were about to descend on his whole body, he suddenly heard Robert's voice in his ears again.

"Boss, they're retreating!"

Stannis immediately ran to the edge of the city wall and looked down, and sure enough, this time the army that was like the Kuroshio began to slowly dissipate backwards like a low tide, and finally disappeared completely at the mountain pass.

The soldiers on the ramparts began to cheer, and they finally repelled the attack and survived.

When the casualties were counted, the statistics were staggering: half of the 800-strong guards had been killed in just three days, and every one of the remaining men had been painted, and almost all of the garrison commanders and officers and officers had been killed.

After a little trimming, Stannis, who had taken command of the Pass Fortress, ordered the others to hurry up and strengthen the fortifications, while he left Matt alone.

"Are you saying that you saw Marquis Froude fleeing from here before?" Stannis still said that he didn't believe it, how could his father-in-law say that he was also a dignified marquis, and he was powerful and powerful, how could he be dragged by a group of refugees to flee together, this is too disrespectful!

"Of course, I can't be mistaken! His Excellency Frode is indeed among the refugees!"

Still, Stannis asked, "Do you know where those refugees went?"

Matt stood up and glanced outside the pass, then roughly gestured in a direction.

"No, those refugees should flee to Fallen Leaf Town, which is twenty miles from here, where there is the closest and only source of water. ”

Stannis nodded, it wasn't very far from here, and he was just in time to go back to find out what was going on, and ask what was going on.

After handing over Hillier's duty to guard the fortress against another enemy attack, Stannis immediately took Robert in the direction that Matt had pointed him out, and he was going to find the Marquis of Frode before the refugees could flee.

On the way to Fallen Leaf Town, Stannis encountered a large number of refugees along the way, all of whom fled from the basin, and even many people who were not from the basin were so frightened that they immediately abandoned their homes and fled with their families after hearing about the disaster.

The terrified peasants filled the entire road, making it impossible for Stannis to move forward on horseback, and even if he revealed himself to be the king of Tanis, it was useless to be scolded by the peasants who were about to go crazy.

It seemed that it was impossible to move forward on horseback, so Stanis had to dismount and leave Robert in the care, while he continued to fight his way with his fists, and now he only prayed that his father-in-law wouldn't leave until he reached the town.

After opening the way with his fist and being squeezed to the point of losing half his life, Stannis finally reached his destination, at this time the originally inconspicuous country town is now crowded with people fleeing from all directions, he roughly estimated, and found that the town that could only accommodate 200 people here has been filled with thousands of people at this time, and the square is full of people who are tired of fleeing here, so that Stannis has no place to put his feet, let alone find someone.

Stennis roared and shouted, "Have any of you seen His Excellency the Marquis of Froude!"

But he didn't expect that even though he had used the 'megaphone', his voice was instantly drowned out by the noisy cries around him, and he didn't even stir up a splash, and even a small bastard next to him kicked him while he was not paying attention and wanted to steal his sword.
