Chapter 220: Monster Siege

The next day, the Goethe Grand Hotel.

As the largest hotel in Mondstadt and the home of the Fatui in Mondstadt, the Goethe Hotel has quite a few Fatui members.

In a luxurious room, a lady who hides a mirror summons a water mirror, and a picture is printed in the water mirror.

In the center of the picture is the Sky Lyre that they had stolen, and when you look away from the Sky Lyre, the figure of Wendy and her party is clearly visible on the water mirror.

There is no doubt that they have manipulated the Lyre of the Sky, making it a prop that can be used as a surveillance.

"My lord, they have already set off, judging from the direction, they should be preparing to go to the ruins of the wind dragon."

Executive [lady] reclined on a large chaise longue with a chess piece in her hand.

In front of her was a scattered game of chess, the situation on which the throne was guarded by loyal guards, but its strongest guardian, the queen, was nowhere to be found.

She chuckled, and her fingers were so white that she crossed the heavy pieces of the chessboard and threw the piece representing the queen on the board.

In an instant, the chess pieces topple, the game collapsed, and it was no longer formed.

The Lei Ying Warlock next to her asked softly, "Madam, what are we going to do?" ”

"Don't worry, the trappers need to be patient, our Anemo is now protected by his knights."

The other Thunder Warlock bowed his head in respect, "Your Excellency, there are a large number of monsters gathered outside Mondstadt, and it looks like they are preparing to attack the city, do we need help?" ”

"Of course not."

The lady cocked Erlang's legs, and the corners of her mouth raised a cold arc, "Since the acting head doesn't want us Fatui to take over the city defense, then we Fatui naturally have no reason to help them deal with the monster siege ......"

With that, the lady stood up and walked to the window, looking down at the city-state below, a symbol of freedom.

"Just let me see if the acting head is not there, and there are any other capable people in the Knights......"

......

On the only bridge that connects to the gates of Mondstadt, rows of sharp, hard horses are neatly placed at the end of the bridge.

Heavily armed knights are ready to respond to the monster's attack.

Jiang Bai stood on the high city wall, blocking the sun with his hand and looking out, "It's almost noon, why haven't those monsters moved yet." ”

In order to prevent the hilichurls from attacking the city, they arrived in the city before dark.

Jiang Bai was still quite excited to see the monster attacking the city with his own eyes, but after waiting on the city wall all morning, these hilichurls were stunned and didn't move at all, just like settling down in the Whispering Forest.

By noon, he had even seen cooking smoke rising from the woods, and it was hilichurls cooking food.

Diluc's expression didn't fluctuate, "Don't worry. ”

Kaeya tossed Mora forward, "That's right, those Abyss Mages are just waiting for us to be impatient. The Knights have changed shifts, so let's go rest and have lunch. The hilichurls are still cooking food, and they have to eat and drink enough before attacking. ”

This is the information that Amber brought back, and it is still very credible.

Seeing Kaiya, Jiang Bai was a little surprised, "Aren't you checking for suspicious people in the city?" Why did you come here too? ”

Kaeya patted him on the shoulder, looking like a good brother, "Now that the monsters haven't attacked the city yet, the whole city is under martial law, who would be stupid to walk into the city now." ”

Jiang Bai was accustomed to Kaeya's self-familiarity, so he grabbed his shoulders and the two of them hooked their shoulders.

"Not necessarily, maybe they've already walked into the city, just waiting for the city to make trouble."

"Relax, trust our Knights!"

Hearing Kaeya's words, Diluc scoffed disdainfully.

He didn't say anything and left the walls directly.

Watching Diluc leave the city wall without looking back, Jiang Bai looked at Kaeya and couldn't hide his curiosity.

"Why does Diluc hate the Knights so much? It's a strange relationship with you......"

said that the relationship is not good, the two will cooperate again, and there is quite a tacit understanding, but let's say that I hate it, and it is like Diluc unilaterally looking at Kaeya unpleasantly.

"That's a long story...... Kaeya shrugged, but didn't intend to say anything further.

The corners of Jiang Bai's mouth twitched, and the mysterious monster hung people's appetite.

Kaiya grabbed Jiang Bai's shoulders and walked down, "Don't talk about this, while the hilichurls are also eating, I invite you to eat fried meat with carrots in dense sauce!" ”

However, the hilichurls' attack was at such an unexpected time, when Jiang Bai was eating with Kaeya in the deer hunter restaurant, when he suddenly heard a sharp whistle.

The hilichurl attack, begun!

A few knights who were eating nearby didn't care about the food on the table that had not eaten a few bites, and immediately picked up their weapons and rushed to the city gate.

Kaeya put down the knife and fork in his hand and wiped his mouth slowly, "The monsters are attacking the city, and I should start getting busy." ”

Jiang Bai stuffed the remaining half of the meat into his mouth, and in order to witness the spectacular sight of the monster attacking the city, he ran as fast as he could.

Obviously, the smoke in the forest was a smoke bomb released by the Abyss Mage, and even if Amber went to investigate, he was deceived by the smoke bombs on the periphery, thinking that the hilichurls were really eating, so he relaxed his vigilance a little.

The siege at this time is a surprise!

Jiang Bai climbed the city wall, swallowed the last bite of meat in his mouth, and looked at the field below.

The number of hilichurls below is not very large, but there are thousands.

The hilichurls of all sizes and weapons of all sizes were coming in from all directions, and the ground trembled a little because of their numbers, and with the incomprehensible roar, the monster siege looked quite like that at first glance.

Driven by the Abyss Mage, they rushed towards Mondstadt, the smell of food wafting through the city, the best temptation for these hungry hilichurls.

However, hilichurls are undisciplined monsters, and even with the command of the Abyss Mage, they can't make these low-intelligence monsters line up in any formation.

Originally, the large hilichurls rushed to the front, that is, they could rely on their large shields and large hilichurls behind them to resist damage, but also because they were the strongest and could break through the defense line the most.

However, the hilichurls of Wuyang rushed forward in one go, and these hilichurls with torches quickly overtook the hilichurls of the rockhills and became the first group of undead souls under Amber's arrows.

The hilichurl shaman was hiding in the distance and chanting a spell with a large wooden staff in his hand, and the hilichurl with a bow and crossbow stood on a large stone pillar and shot at the knights, and the hilichurl threw slim bombs of various colors, and the large hilichurl with thick rock elemental armor attached to it rushed towards him.

For a while, all kinds of attacks mixed with elemental power appeared one after another like a rain curtain, hitting the repulsive horse, hitting the bridge deck, and hitting people's tense heartstrings.

In just a moment, the bridge is about to be lost!
