The Lost Gate on the northeastern border of the Rutchian Isthmus, a forest capital built on a central plateau of the rainforest, was overrun by the Skaven and is now left with ruins and rodents roaming through the ruins.

Beneath the hard marble floor of the Lost Gate lies the Sinful Kingdom of the Nezumi. The Nezumi clan that rules the area is the Eclipse, originally an insignificant branch of the Scurry clan.

When the rat people first crossed the vast ocean to the New World, the Eclipse Clan seized the opportunity to take the lead in the Lost Gate, and after a long period of development, gradually became an influential clan.

The hatching ponds of the indigenous lizardmen are firmly controlled by the rodents, who divide the hatches into two groups, and the weaker ones are immediately shackled and sent to the factories and workshops deep underground to work until they die of exhaustion; Or they can be reduced to meat storage grains and be eaten by rats in difficult times.

The fate of the more physically distinguished individuals is even more bleak, and they will be dragged to the evil alchemy laboratory to be subjected to inhumane biological modification; A considerable number of test subjects could not survive the painful torture and died tragically on the spot, and even if a few survived, their bodies turned into deformed monsters, and life was worse than death.

Stepping on the white bones of the lizardmen, in just a few decades, the eclipse has gradually emerged from a small low-level clan.

As the saying goes: A rat rat who wants to become an immortal as a human being, is born on the earth and wants to go to heaven, and does not want to climb to the seat of the Council of Thirteen, is not a good rat.

The fluttering Rodent Clan rats were full of confidence, and naturally set their greedy eyes on the glorious Sun City Hesiota.

It just so happened that the pointed ears in the north also had this idea, so the two hooked up together, not long ago, the great engineer warlock of the tribe and the pointed ear lord jointly sent troops, leading the elite of the whole clan to pounce on Hesiota, and the remaining rats rejoiced, fantasizing about an unprecedented hearty victory, but they did not expect that this move would lead to a catastrophe.

On the battlefield of the Lustrian Plains, Hemer saw the arrogant strength of the horse master dragon, and took the lead in reversing the water, cooperating with the Hesiota army to annihilate the poor rats, and at the same time sending Khill to capture the Lost Gate.

On the ruined surface, Kehir's forces easily captured the main city with little resistance.

Having lost their leader, the rats fled and scrambled into underground caverns, plotting a counterattack on the surface in the foul-smelling ditches.

Since he couldn't think of a good way to wipe out the hiding rats, Kehir had to liberate the lizardmen's hatching pond first.

The lizardmen, who had been enslaved for a long time and had seen the light of day, slowly walked out of the tunnel, their eyes were stung by the bright sunlight, and they stared blankly at the temple left by their ancestors, and the magnificent pyramid shrouded in the scorching sun stood in front of them, and they couldn't help but cry when they touched the scene.

A group of cold-blooded people actually knelt on the ground and hugged their heads and cried, which this made Kehir and the others unexpected.

However, Hemmer's order was to treat the lizardmen as ordinary citizens, not as lowly slaves, so he did not order them to be imprisoned, but to stay.

Most of the lizardfolk are terrestrial and unwilling to leave the land of their ancestors, and they are enthusiastic to summon the wild triceratops and monitor lizards of the rainforest, mine stone, cut wood, rebuild temples, and re-establish settlements among the ruins, restoring the ravaged homeland bit by bit.

Watching the flocks of cold lizards come out of the depths of the dense forest, being summoned by the lizard people, extremely intimate, Kehir couldn't help but sigh, worthy of being the eldest son of the ancient saint, the lizardmen were born with the racial advantage of affinity with beasts.

It is extremely difficult for their dark elves to train the cold lizard riders, not only do they have to feed them for a long time and cultivate the relationship between master and servant, but the rider must immerse himself in a thick layer of cold lizard venom to ensure that he does not become the ration of the mount.

The long-term effect of this was the loss of smell, taste and touch, and although there were treatments, they were expensive and largely only the aristocracy could afford them.

Therefore, although the Dark Elf Cold Lizard Knight is majestic on the battlefield, he secretly suffers more than ordinary soldiers.

Like these lizardmen, they casually take a spear and jump on the back of the cold lizard, pat each other's heads, and become cold lizard riders who come and go like the wind.

Seeing this, Khill understood why Hemmer didn't let himself take these lizardmen as slaves, and what he really wanted was to recruit a group of lizardmen warriors to join his army.

*

A few days later, Hemmer, who had led the army back, arrived at the Lost Gate and camped there, where he saw a typical lizardman city for the first time.

In the middle of the lush rainforest, the Old City of the Lost Gate is arranged in a circular shape, the outermost ring is a residential area, with temples and temple towers everywhere in the Central Ring, and the inner ring is the famous Lost Gate Terrace, a mysterious pyramid suspended above a source of magical power.

It is said that the planet's engine is hidden here, and there is no road leading to the pyramid, and the mystery of it is known only to the lizardmen's mysterious guardians.

Upon entering the Lost Gate, Hemmer's army was warmly welcomed.

The local lizardmen stood on both sides of the street, looking curiously at the Dark Elf Lord, who had the impression that the Dark Elves were ruthless marauders, but they were grateful that this army had liberated them and spared no crimes.

After settling the people and soldiers, Hemmer led the officers to the top of the pyramid at the northern end of the city for a military council.

The plan for the southern expedition was put on hold for the time being, and the main thing in this meeting was to liquidate the remnants of the ratmen hiding under their feet.

"My lord, the remaining rodent clan rat people are frightened, and they retreat into the underground passages of the city to avoid them, and it is difficult for our army to effectively eliminate them." Kirhir was most familiar with the situation and was the first to ask the question.

"Well, that's a tough question." It is not difficult to conquer the nezumi city, but it is difficult to get rid of the nezumi entrenched underground. Hemmer stroked his chin and looked around at the crowd, "What do you think?" ”

Eliden, who was opposite him, sat at the conference table without any image, knocking on the sexy Erlang's leg, and putting one hand in the pocket of his trench coat: "Don't rats like to drill holes, it's not easy to get rid of them?" Smoke them out with smoke. ”

She snapped her fingers and said with a wicked smile, "Then burn them to the ground." ”

"Okay, that's a good idea." Several commanders nodded hurriedly.

"Anyway... They have gas masks, right?" Anzales, who has always been irresponsible for thinking, poured cold water on him, extinguishing everyone's enthusiasm.

"yes, tsk, that's annoying."

"Why don't you just blow the ground open with the explosives, so they won't have anywhere to hide." Someone had an idea and suddenly said.

"Nope." Hemmer stomped on the ground and said in a deep voice, "The Eclipse Clan has been operating here for many years, and they have already dug up the formation full of holes and dark passages. If we had used explosives, the massive explosion would have led to a massive landslide and the entire city would have sunk into the ground. ”

This is how the rat people targeted the southern kingdom of Tyrell in the Old World, causing many terrifying events that evaporated entire cities out of thin air.

Everyone also felt that it made sense, and they came up with multiple solutions in a row, and finally they were all pointed out that there were loopholes.

Even Ez took the opportunity to come up with a bad idea next to Hemer's ear, she instigated Hermer to take her power, and then injected infinite chaos power into the ground, not to mention the rat people hiding underground, as long as they were panting, they would die.

In short, it is to transform into a matchless.

Hemmer, of course, vetoed it.

The wielding of Ez's power was extremely dangerous, and with each use, he became more corrupted by Slaanesh and became uglier and uglier. Malus Blackblade is a prime example.

Hemmer didn't want to have the strength of the ancient gods, and he had a beauty comparable to the old gods.

"That's not going to work, that's not going to work, just dig a tunnel like a mouse." Eliden complained casually with a disgusted face, causing everyone to laugh, but Hemer pondered for a moment and said seriously: "It's really good." ”

Everyone: Huh?

Eliden's words reminded Hemmer of the empires of the Old World, and the major cities had come up with a solution when they had been fighting the Nezumi underground invasion for a long time.

That is to dig urban tunnels and increase the exposure of the nezumi tunnels.

This will not only find the nezumi in a short period of time, but also prevent the nezumi invasion and reduce the corrosion of Skaven.

After all, I'm done digging, what else can rats and rats dig?

Originally, a joke was actually adopted by Hermer.

Early the next morning, he began to work in the fields with his soldiers, starting from the square in the center of the Lost Gate to dig down the city tunnel, and as everyone started to do it, one underground tunnel after another was exposed, and the panicked rats also exposed more secret passages when they fled.

While digging the city tunnels, Hemmer also adopted the previous idea of using smoke, after all, not all nezumi have the ability to equip gas masks, and as the billowing smoke poured into the dark tunnel, a large number of nezumi escaped and were captured one by one by the warriors guarding outside.

The vigorous anti-rat campaign was carried out in an orderly manner, and after a month, most of the rat people were driven out of the underground world.

In the face of this group of rat people who were crazy to make trouble in the last moment, Hemmer obviously had no sympathy, and directly shackled them, and asked Anzales to take people back to the cozy underground mines of Iron Thorn Town to mine.

The original slaves of all races in the mine were released from slavery and put to live in the new city on the right side of Ironthorn Town.

Since you didn't get a mining tool from the nezumi, you can simply catch the nezumi and go to mine. Although there was a slight deviation from the originally planned reform, the problem was finally solved. Hemmer was quite satisfied.
