067 Hero OR Coward
As the first watchtower was touched, several other watchtowers suffered almost the same fate, and soon almost all the sentinels set up on the perimeter of the factory in the water were cleared.
It was also at this time that in the icy waters of the Seine, more "fish-man" creatures marched along the embankment towards the hydroelectric factory. The group of fishmen in the back is even equipped with armor and a variety of weapons in their hands.
From this point, it can be seen that they are not simple monsters, but creatures with a certain civilization, at least they can already use weapons and armor.
"George, you see that guy Dilan is lazy again, and I don't even see him on the watchtower. ”
It was Avar, who was also a soldier guarding the water factory, and he was hiding in a hidden corner on a secret outpost mission.
In a shadow next to him, George's reply came: "I guess the cold wind above the guard tower is too strong at night, so he squatted down to avoid the cold wind." But then again, it would be nice to be able to bake a fire in front of a warm fireplace in this cold winter, which was much harder than it was when the city lord's guard was in the past. ”
"Don't complain, when you used to be in the city lord's guard, your little salary had the opportunity to bake a fire in front of the fireplace? Although the training is much harder now than before, the lord has given us more, and it has given me a sense of honor as a warrior and knows what I am fighting for. ”
When George heard Avar say this, he agreed, "I'm just casually saying that Storm Castle was still hungry and cold at this time last year, and it was Lord Duke who changed all that. More importantly, I also feel like a warrior, not the coward I used to be afraid of when I heard about the ice demon. ”
The two secret sentinel soldiers chatted for a few words in this lonely long night, and then chose to shut up, because chatting with the secret sentinel is a violation of military regulations, even if there is no one around to supervise them now, they dare not be unscrupulous, and the discipline of military training has begun to penetrate into their bone marrow.
Not long after they finished speaking, George noticed several dark shadows under the watchtower, but they happened to be in a state of "darkness under the lights", and George could not see who it was.
"Avar, something is wrong with the watchtower, it's not time for the change of guard, it's impossible for Dilan to walk down the watchtower, and the patrol guard won't appear under the tower at this time!"
Hearing George say this, Avar also cheered up and looked in the direction of the tower, and sure enough, several dark shadows were touching in the direction of the hydroelectric factory. When he saw this scene, Avar understood that something was wrong, it was definitely not the people of Storm Castle, but an outsider who had invaded.
It's just that Avar wasn't sure if it was an ice demon. Because in terms of body shape, these black shadows are much shorter than the two-meter-tall Ice Demon, and the Ice Demon has always attacked head-on, and there are few examples of Ice Demon sneak attacks.
"George, alert!"
Instead of continuing to hide, Avar stood up and rushed in the direction of the shadow, trying to find out what was going on. George didn't hesitate at all, he directly took off the whistle hanging around his neck, and in the silence of the night, a loud whistle suddenly sounded.
"Something's wrong!"
Rose in the iron-making blast furnace room, after hearing this loud whistle, immediately said a word to Nicole. She had been feeling a little restless before, and there was a strange spatial fluctuation, and sure enough, something was wrong.
"Did the Ice Demon attack?" Nicole asked nervously, because the biggest threat to Storm Castle was the Ice Demon in the Monster Valley, and the water factory was just outside the city, which would be the main target of the Ice Demon's attack, which was why Duke had to arrange so many guards.
"Whoever it is, we're going to take care of these two blast furnaces!"
After saying a fierce word, Rose pulled out the dagger at her waist, she knew the importance of these two magic blast furnaces to Storm Castle, so no matter what, she had to prevent this place from being destroyed by the Ice Demon, and it could be regarded as making up for her previous mistakes with Duke.
Outside, Avar had already rushed to the bottom of the watchtower, and now he finally saw what the black shadow was, but everything in front of him was not the monster he imagined, but a group of terrifying monsters that were half human and half fish!
Naturally, these fish-men also saw Avar, and they didn't hesitate at all, and rushed towards Avar with their fierce teeth. Faced with such a terrifying creature for the first time, an uncontrollable fear welled up in Avar's heart, and he wanted to run back.
But for some reason, the slogan "Storm Legion, Forward!" instinctively appeared in Avar's mind, and he also understood that if the hydroelectric factory was destroyed, then there would be no way to produce the super armor they had been looking forward to, and there would be no way to resist the attack of the monsters.
There are also their parents and young children in the city, and the last time the Ice Demon attacked with heavy losses, if they breached Storm Castle, then they must have no way to escape. Avar didn't want his own children, and he would become a member of the Ice Demon in the future, for the sake of his family, for the sake of Storm Castle, and for the honor of the warriors, he had no choice to retreat!
"Forward!"
Avar shouted to cheer himself on, and then he drew his sword and rushed towards the fish-man monster without hesitation, believing that even if he was killed in battle, the lord would greet his family.
He swung his sword and slashed at the nearest fishman, while several other fish-man iron forks stabbed at Avar. Avar's sword slashed directly into the neck of the leading fishman, and in an instant, blood shot out, and the pungent smell of blood filled the air.
"Jingle" made a few crisp sounds, and the fishman's iron fork also hit Avar's body, but as a front-line sentry officer, and a veteran of the previous city lord's guard, Avar had already taken the lead in equipping plate armor.
At this moment, the Storm Armor showed its amazing defensive capabilities, except for the sparks and a few scratches from the impact of the iron weapon, these rusty low-grade iron weapons had no way to break through the Storm Armor's defenses.
With a backhand, Avar slashed the arm of another fish-man, blood splattered onto his shining Storm Armor, and a passion and cruelty of iron and blood burst out.
While Avar was fighting bloodily, George also rushed over after blowing the whistle. It was only then that he saw a large number of fishmen landing on the banks of the Seine, and there were only two people on his side.
When he saw this scene in front of him, George slowed down his pace, and this situation was undoubtedly to send him to death. But it is his comrades-in-arms and his brothers who are fighting bloodily in front of him, and if he escapes at this moment, he will suffer for the rest of his life with the title of coward.
Do you want to be a coward for the rest of your life, or do you want to be a valiant warrior, even if it's only for a few minutes?
In just this moment, George chose the latter, he drew his long sword and roared, and rushed over without hesitation!
