Narrow, single-entrance, easy to defend and difficult to attack," Nalu, disguised as a strong man, said earnestly to the mayor of Soft Maple.

"Narrow, single entrance, easy to defend and difficult to attack......"

Repeating the new security advisor's request, the mayor slapped his forehead and pointed out the window to a building, "Paper Tower, the environment there meets your requirements." ”

"Very well, let's go. ”

The orcs of the Fezak family were already fully armed, carrying the samples of the "new weapons" that Naru had brought from the ship, and the group of mercenaries hired by the mayor, and the mayor of Soft Maple City quickly moved to a new residence.

The so-called "paper tower" is actually a library building in the mayor's official residence. It resembles an ordinary watchtower, made entirely of bluestone mixed with glutinous rice juice, with only a ring of stairs that surrounds the tower, connecting each of the towers.

The tower was used to house books on the history of Soft Maple and dossiers of executive orders issued by successive mayors. However, given the current mayor's size, he rarely comes to the paper tower, and most of the time he only works in other parts of the official residence.

The tower is divided into seven floors, each of which is about the same size. With the help of the mercenary leader, it took the mayor a while to climb to the top floor. At this time, the orcs and Naru had been waiting here for a long time, and they were working to arrange security.

"Leave a group of people on this level," Naru said to the mercenary leader who climbed up, "and for the rest of the men, you can divide them evenly among the floors, or just concentrate everyone in the vestibule at the bottom of the paper tower, and remember to have them wear armor." ”

Glancing at the black hole of the staircase, the mercenary leader narrowed his eyes. "It looks tricky," but the experience he brought from years of fighting made him judge that Naru did have a point, "The halberd corps, in a defensive formation at the bottom, the tip of the gun is lowered. The crossbowman followed, flowing out at intervals of four or five steps. Arrows are released at the slightest movement. Everyone, draw your sword and don't leave your hand. ”

Just when everyone was cautiously and orderly ignorant of security measures for the safety of the mayor, something suddenly climbed up the battlements of the mayor's official residence. His eyes were blood-red, and he was on all fours, as dark as night. After taking the form of a black panther, the leopard man moved as smoothly as a mountain and water, and walked down the stairs and into the courtyard step by step along the battlements, and finally disappeared into the night.

After a while, the people in the paper tower heard a slight scraping sound from the place where they had been before they had moved, where the mayor had been. It's crackling, it's light, it's shallow, but it's there. With the exception of Naru and the few Fezak orcs, the tide of fear was rising and was almost past their hearts.

If we use a metaphor for their consciousness at this time, then the only "frightened monkey" is most appropriate—trying to quickly find a big tree and climb up, hissing and screaming, throwing and rotten fruit. The ladies who had followed the mayor, as well as their servants, had even covered their mouths with their hands, for fear that they would shout out because of their nervousness.

"It's okay to scream if you're scared," looking at a little girl with a pale face, it was the mayor's only daughter, the strong ogre grinned, and then lit the wall lamp on the wall, "Anyway, that monster is there, no matter how much we dodge, he will definitely find this place in a while." If he dares to come, we will beat him to death. ”

I don't know if Naru's smile was too terrifying, or if it really couldn't be suppressed, the little girl let out a sharp cry. Naru and a few of the orcs burst out laughing, but they had succeeded in diluting the fear.

Following Naru's advice, the mercenary leader only left one or two people on the top floor, and he himself took a few good men to guard the staircase on each floor, and all the remaining mercenaries were concentrated in the hall on the ground floor.

According to what was said before, the mercenaries at the bottom have already set up a formation, and if they are really unable to defeat the monsters that are coming, then they will retreat to the upper floor in an orderly manner according to the queue. Someone on each floor will be in charge of answering.

The halberdiers lined up in a tight formation, facing the gate of the paper tower, like a hedgehog with steel needles upside down. The crossbowmen hid behind them, and in order to prevent them from accidentally shooting their teammates, they now pointed their arrows at the ground.

Suddenly, there was a roar and the sound of scratching the gate, and the leopard man had found the mayor's hiding place. This ancient raider, who had only been resurrected not long ago, vented all his anger on the iron gate of the hemlock hoop. With the continuous sound of "bang bang bang", the gate of the paper tower quickly broke through a large hole as if it had been chiseled by a city breaker.

Seeing the shadows flickering outside the door, the crossbowmen immediately aimed at the hole and pulled the trigger, and the crossbow strings sounded one after another, and the arrows flew out with a "whoosh". The noise outside the door stopped abruptly. Just when someone thought that the monster had been ambushed, another roar suddenly sounded outside the door, as if to laugh at the useless work that those mercenaries had just done.

To make matters worse, the roar seemed to have a breathtaking effect, and the crossbowmen were affected in some way. A few of them trembled in their hands and accidentally shot their crossbow arrows into the halberders who stood in front of them. "Damn, what are you doing here," the wounded mercenary shouted loudly, but he didn't notice that the door to the paper tower had suddenly opened.

Something suddenly flew over the gun, as black as the purity of the night, as fast as sudden death. The guards only had time to think, "It's so fast!", and the leopard man had already fallen into the crowd, and the mercenaries screamed and fled in all directions, getting in the way of each other. The monster roared and roared, its fangs and claws so fast that it was hard to discern with the naked eye. Some people felt that they had struck a shadow, but they were then thrown a dozen feet away.

Those who survived, uninjured or lightly wounded, began to flee desperately to the upper floor, and those who were seriously wounded, but did not immediately lose their breath, held their weapons against the pillar or wall, waiting to be disemboweled by the monster. In just a few seconds, six or seven halberders were killed, and the number of wounded was even greater.

They weren't even able to slow down the Leopard Man, let alone kill him, or stop him.

"It's too fast, that monster is too fast," the mercenary leader retreated to the top floor under the protection of several of his men, and then he immediately completely blocked the door of this floor with a hardwood bookcase on the wall, "Hurry up and find something, and block that damn window, if that monster climbs the wall and gets in through that window, we'll all be dead." ”

I don't know if it's because his skin is too dark, but it turned out to be a prophecy, and when they were about to find some heavy objects to block the window, a shadow suddenly appeared outside the window. "The monster is there, everyone be careful!"

"Bang!"

I don't know when, Nalu pressed the button in his hand, and the switch activated by electromagnetic induction was triggered in an instant, and the "new weapon" samples they brought from the ship suddenly became powerful. Shotguns shoot out of the window, turning the leopard man into a face full of flowers as he tries to leap into the room. The monster clasped the wall and counteracted the impact of the cannonball with the strength of its muscles.

But before it could get in, with a soft "click", the small cannon that had been placed by Naru was activated again, and the shotgun was fired again, and the projectiles undoubtedly hit the leopard man's head again. "If there's something that can't be solved with one shot, then come twice," Nalu said as he put the spiked gloves on his hands.

"Roar!"

With a roar that almost knocked everyone on the floor to their knees, the ogre man jerked back to his size, and then he began to rush towards the window, turning the top of the paper tower directly into a terrace. This time, Nalu directly pinched the neck of the leopard man who had returned to the rescue, and fell straight to the ground according to this robbery.

"Bang!"

The leopard man suffered a hard landing, while Naru stepped on his body, so it was a soft landing. "If you can't solve it with two shots, then reward him with one, two, and three punches......" While counting, Nalu's fist was like a piledriver, knocking down on the leopard man's face, smearing the head of the robber all over the ground.
