"It's finally getting started...... Princess Luna sighed faintly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info She looked around at the soldiers on the city walls, and their blood would be sprinkled on the land without hesitation, just like their brave ancestors?

Saril stood beside her and whispered, "Your Highness Princess, what should we do?"

Now, now that they've collected the Heart of Fire shards and transformed the snow-covered Hook Bay into a vibrant harbor, it's time to go back.

Will Hook Bay be able to survive the war? She was worried and skeptical.

Mayor Hook Bay hastily wrote down a note, then tied it to the raven's ankle and released it. Seeing the worry on Princess Luna's face, he immediately raised his fist in front of his left chest and said, "Your Royal Highness, we will swear to protect you to the death." ”

But it's you who are worried about Luna right now. Every army that enters the Lost Lands in the future is likely to be stronger than Kenloe's troops.

"Mr. Mayor, I want to go to the Divine Wood Forest. The sacred tree there is rooted in the deep soil, and it is closely related to the sacred tree of the Aveli Elemental City, and I want to seek the guidance of Saiya, the mother of the earth. ”

"I'll send troops to protect you. ”

"No, Hook Bay needs their protection more now. ”

There are many abandoned villages along the way, and almost all the residents there have chosen to relocate to Hook Bay or Shenmu Forest, but there are still many elderly people who choose to stay in this place where they were born and raised.

They may not have been out of this place for the rest of their lives, and their knowledge of the whole world may be just a few words from the mouth of a traveler.

Villages have been looted and even burned. Many elderly people look at the destroyed homes and plundered crops in a daze, looking so depressed and helpless.

Luna was saddened. She and Saliel tried to persuade the old men to leave their homeland and move back into the city, but they shook their heads and refused.

Sariel was very angry and said, "This is really a wild man's behavior! It seems that Kenloe's soldiers only insult women, children, and the elderly!"

"That's what the Savages have always done. Their motto is to take more than to plough, and wherever they pass, any useful resources will be plundered and eaten by them like locusts. ”

"Your Highness Princess, don't you want to take care of them?"

Luna smiled bitterly, "What do you do? They worship the strong, and only by defeating them will they be restrained." We need troops, and those soldiers in Hook Bay are far from enough! Fortunately, they are only robbing and not hurting anyone, which is already a precious thing for them!"

"But what is the difference between them robbing the old men of their food and killing them?" said Sariel, still indignant.

The two often stopped in front of some of the burned villages, and they didn't know what to do.

Mulak had fought alongside them in Hook Bay, so he knew both of them. He politely invited the two into the castle and led them to the bottom of the sacred tree.

"Oh my God, has Shenmu become like this?" Luna couldn't help but burst into tears.

The Sacred Tree in front of him had lost its former colorful brilliance, and only a few poor leaves remained on the strong branches, like a pair of old and helpless hands reaching out to the sky.

Is this sacred tree, which once blessed the earth, also praying to the heavens?

Mulak was also sad. He nodded, "The power of evil is getting stronger and stronger, and it seems that the cold winter is coming." ”

Luna shuddered as she placed her hand on the ancient tree, then closed her eyes.

In this world, there are not many people who can talk to the Divine Tree, not even the Guardian Murak.

Luna must have read the meaning of the sacred tree. Her face was very pale, fine beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, and her body kept shaking. Finally, his whole body was shocked, and a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.

What she had seen was self-evident, and no one wanted to disturb her anymore, which would plunge her into grief again.

A maid hurried over and whispered to Murakra.

"What?! Whoever it is, I must keep it! I can't lose any of it!"

"But the midwife said that if she didn't make a choice, neither the adult nor the baby would be able to save ......," the maid cried aloud.

"Take me there!" Luna understood what was going on.

Luna's magical abilities are known to Murak, and she may be able to save her wife and her unborn baby! Murak grabbed a life-saving straw and hurriedly led Luna and Saril into his wife's bedroom.

There were a few old women in the room, walking around anxiously. On the bed in the room, a pregnant woman was sweating profusely, screaming hoarsely, and with all her efforts, the white sheets under her body had been dyed red.

"Egnes, you must hold on!" Murak threw himself down in front of the bed, tearfully grasping her hand.

Agnes nodded weakly, took his hand tightly, and used her strength again.

"Ah...... Murak, I can't do it, I really can't do it, save my child...... Let me look at her before I die!"

"No, you have to hold on, you must not give up, you can do it......" Mulak could not cry.

"Murak, I must open her abdomen and take out the baby immediately, or the child will be in danger of suffocation!" Luna said anxiously.

Agnes nodded. She closed her eyes and let a string of tears roll down the corners of her eyes.

"Sariel, hypnotize her, or she'll be in a lot of pain. Also, what do you have in place?"

"Everything for midwifery is here, and we've boiled it in boiling water. Looking at Princess Luna, who was nimble, the people in the room finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"No, bring me a basin of hot water!"

Hot water is readily available in the room. Luna soaked a knife, scissors, pliers, tweezers, etc., in water, and poured some white powder into the basin.

"Boiling water doesn't always disinfect completely, and women can get puerperal fever, which kills a lot of women. ”

A woman's birth is a test of life and death. In the Middle Ages, when medicine was not developed, the number of women who died because of childbirth would even reach two or three out of ten!

Luna soaks her hands in water as well.

What would the white powder be?

How did Luna, who is obviously a magician, suddenly become a doctor?

Could it be ......

Under Sariel's gentle strokes and whispered incantations, Agnes let out a subtle snort.

Luna's deft fingers gestured over the pregnant woman's bulging abdomen to find the right spot, and the knife quickly sliced through the skin.

Mulak immediately turned his head away, unable to bear to look at it again.

"Your Lord!" a heavily armed soldier appeared outside the door. Murak walked to the door and listened to the soldier's whisper, his expression becoming more and more solemn.

He returned to his room, picked up the sword on the table, glanced at the sleeping lady, and walked out of the door.

The castle was already surrounded by large groups of soldiers.

Mulak saw dozens of clustered phalanxes. Inside, there are little monsters that look like rats, Magog who plays with fireballs in both hands, Hellhound who roars, Horned Devils with horns as sharp as rhinoceros, Jailer Evil God who wields a flaming whip in his hands, Fire Elves who are covered in infernal lava, and dozens of scythe-wielding demons!

Oh my God, could it be the day of destruction of the Divine Wood Forest?" he looked at the soldiers beside him and sighed secretly.

Torches were lit everywhere on the walls, and the longbowmen ran to find their firing positions.

Dozens of ballistae were also rolled out of the walls, as well as more than a dozen trebuchets designed to fire stones and fuel-filled amphorae.

Let's fight, even if I don't see the sun tomorrow!

The demon legions outside the city were not ready to storm. Although if they attacked with all their might, the Divine Wood Forest would not be able to withstand it for a few hours. They just rolled out a dozen trebuchets and started piling boulders and amphorae.

"Ignition!" Murak raised his sword aloft.

"Launch!"

More than a dozen fireballs dragging gunpowder smoke pierced the sky and roared out of the city.

The demon legion's trebuchets also began to fight back, but instead of charging, their army stayed far beyond the range of the trebuchet.

Why, do you want to compare with me how to fight with trebuchets? Then I am definitely not inferior to anyone else! Murak had already marked various places outside the city with shooting yuan, and the first attack caused one of the opponent's trebuchets to fall into flames.

Enemy fireballs landed in different places. Some were destroyed on the city walls, others fell in the city, and several houses were set on fire.

The people of the city ran out one after another, carrying water to extinguish the fire.

In the second round of shooting, the enemy adjusted their shooting, and the landing points basically exploded on the city wall.

What about the third round of shooting?

No! The demon army pushed the trebuchet out of range.

Selren stood on a high hill outside the city and watched as a large flock of ravens flew out of the city.

"They're starting to release ravens to call for help!" said the assistant.

"Well, let's start the general attack at night!" Serren said, pointing in the direction where the ravens flew out, "Arrange five hundred Magogs in that position, and when the general attack begins, their task is to shoot all the ravens and not miss a single one." ”

"General, do you think it is possible for Sauron's plan to succeed?"

Serren nodded and said, "This old man is actually very cunning. The way to besiege the city and send reinforcements, only he can come up with. If Gru's army can be transferred out of the castle and annihilated halfway, it will be much less troublesome to attack the city in the future. ”

"What about that army of savages from the past?"

"When we destroy the Divine Wood Forest, we will go back and destroy him!"

Murak was on the city walls checking his combat readiness. In the enemy camp, only Magog is a ranged attack unit, which reduces some pressure on the defenders.

Although the enemy's long-range attack force is not strong, their short-range attack force is indeed too powerful! especially their two squadrons of fire elves and one squadron of demons, both of which have superb flying abilities, and any wall is useless to them.

Murak ordered all the ballistas to be aimed at the sky, the only way to fend off these terrible monsters.

But what are they waiting for?

Waiting in despair of helplessness can be insane. Unable to think of their intentions, Muraq did not bother to think about them, and hurried back to his apartment.

As soon as he was outside the door, he heard the crying of the baby in the room. He pushed the door open and rushed inside.

Luna was slightly tired. She looked at Murak and said, "Congratulations, you have a lovely daughter, and both mother and daughter are safe." ”

Murak looked at her gratefully, then threw himself at the bed.

Is that little pink lump her own daughter? She glared at her little hands and legs, and cried in her mouth.

Mulak picked her up and couldn't help but kiss her a few times.

"Your beard will prick her. A smile appeared on Agnes' pale face.

"She's very much like you, dear Egnes, there's nothing like that!" Mulak looked at his wife and said affectionately, "Thank you, Egnes, for making me a father!"

"What just happened? Is the enemy coming?"

"It's nothing, just a small army of thieves, I've beaten them off, but...... Maybe they will come back. Egnes, just in case, I want you and our precious daughter to hide in a secret room under the Sacred Tree, I don't want you to hurt a hair. ”

"Well, I'm tired and want to rest......"

"You rest, I'm right outside the door!"

Murak tucked the quilt for Agnes and quietly went out the door.

"I gave her some nightshade, it would give her a good rest, she was so weak. Luna explained.

"Thank you! I didn't expect you to be not only a brilliant magician, but also a famous doctor who can help the world. ”

"I don't know how I suddenly had this ability, as if I had already done it!" Luna wondered. She continued, "I can see the worry in your heart, let's say, how strong are the enemy forces outside the city?"

"Their combat strength is at least ten times that of my troops, and my castle is simply not able to withstand their terrifying attacks. But I don't understand, why haven't they attacked yet, what are they waiting for?"
