When the two of them returned with Anna in their arms, their faces were very unsightly.

Monica also had to admit that although there was no evidence yet, Babu's idea had to be guarded against.

Originally, I just wanted to hide behind the townspeople of Tanuki Town, come up with ideas to help, try to help the townspeople through the crisis, and make a lot of money by the way, even if the townspeople really can't hold on in the end, the most they can do is to flee as soon as possible, so as not to lose anything.

However, now the nature has changed. If the other party really attacked the auditorium because he was eyeing Babu and Anna, then as long as Babu is still in the present world, then no matter where he goes, he will chase at least tens of thousands of monsters behind him, and it is even more terrifying to leave the present world, and these tens of thousands of monsters may become mutants.

Now he and Anna can eat and chat leisurely without incident, all thanks to the townspeople in front of them at any cost, if the townspeople are defeated, then Monica and the Babu Chamber of Commerce's adventure is probably over. Now the people of the town think that they are fighting for Tanuki Town, and they can sacrifice their lives if they know the reason for the sudden attack...... Monica and Babu sighed at the same time and sat down again in front of Linda.

"We changed our minds." The two looked at each other, and this time it was Babu who spoke, "We did have other plans before, but it didn't hurt you, a win-win result." But now things have changed, and so have our plans, but overall it's better for you, because we're here to help you. ”

"The Báb is right, it will not hurt you." Monica tacitly continued, "Now that the situation has deteriorated to the point where it is now, there is no point in you hiding it from us, it is better for us to cooperate sincerely, because now only we may be able to help you." ”

"Help us ...... How can you help us? Linda sighed, it was difficult to maintain the solemnity and seriousness on her face, and said bitterly, "We appreciate your kindness, but the situation has deteriorated to the point where it is no longer something you can help." Oh, the food consumption of more than a thousand people, the depletion of war supplies, these you can't provide. What if it could be provided? At most, it's just a few more days of delay, and it's useless to do anything if you don't solve the source problem. ”

"What is the source problem?" Báb asked, "Haven't you tried to solve it?" ”

"I don't know, I can't find the source at all." Linda sighed, it was difficult to continue to pretend to be calm, rubbing the corner of her forehead and saying with a headache, "In the past month, we have searched all over the place, it should be something similar to a node, because the entrance is no longer moving in the edge, it must be anchored." But we can't find it, there is no special discovery in the edge except that the environment has become abnormal, and we suspect that the problem is in the present world, but there is nothing wrong in the current world. Now there are fewer and fewer people who have survived, and there are less than ten people left who have combat power, and in a few days, even if the root of the problem is found, it is estimated that no one will solve it. ”

"That's why we say that now only we can help you." Babu smiled, sounding very sincere, "We're the only ones willing to help, aren't we?" ”

"Alas, I know you mean well, but in fact, I also mean to refuse." Linda sighed and said helplessly, "Forget it, let's talk about it first, how are you going to let us cooperate?" What do we need to do? What do you need to give? What do you want, and what do we get? ”

"Give what? Heh, answer me a question first. After a moment's thought, the Báb asked, "I need your help to think about any of the weirdest places in town." ”

"Huh?"

"A place that resembles a cave, the area is very large, you can't see the edge at a glance, there are many tunnels around the cave in all directions, and there seems to be a body of water in the center of the cave, oh, it seems to be something like an underground lake." Babu subconsciously looked around and said in a low voice, "It is said that this kind of place should be more common in the mountains, and there may be such caves in the belly of the mountains, but I recalled that your present world is a plain, there are no mountains at all, and there are very few hills, so I don't have a clue, you ...... Looks like you know what I'm talking about. ”

Babu found that as soon as he was halfway through his speech, Linda's expression became very strange, and the eyes looking at him were quite strange, a little suspicious, but more still incredible. It wasn't until Babu finished speaking that Linda asked in disbelief, "You've been to Tanuki Town before?" Is this your second visit? ”

"Huh?"

"If you hadn't come here before the catastrophe broke out and had contact with the old people in the town, how could you newcomers know about this place?"

It seems that you are indeed more than just dreaming. Eye-to-eye with Monica, Babu understood her thoughts, but he didn't respond to Monica or Linda's question, just smiled mysteriously.

"Well, I'll admit it, there are such places in this world, and not many people know about them now, and I just happen to be one." Linda hesitated for a while and gritted her teeth, "Forget it, you come with me, I'll take you to see it." ”

Having said this, Linda did not lead the way directly, but led the two out of the auditorium and into the courtyard at the door outside.

The battle was fierce.

I don't know how many monsters gathered outside, footsteps, human voices, and animal howls were all in one piece, and it was extremely noisy, as if tens of thousands of people in the whole town had gathered outside. If you look beyond the walls, you can see that the area around the auditorium, even the roofs of the buildings, are full of monsters, coveting everything inside the auditorium.

Behind the iron gate was covered with sandbags, layer after layer, and Algan took the lead, standing on the platform erected behind the gate, brandishing a spear, and repelling the monsters that tried to hit the iron gate one by one.

There are also a lot of platforms built inside the wall, more than forty strong men stand on the platform, whenever there is a ladder on the wall, someone immediately blocks it, it is best to destroy the ladder, and if it can't be destroyed, the ladder must be pushed down in time, so that the monster has a chance to climb up.

But no matter how tight the defense is, there will inevitably be flaws, and occasionally monsters will climb the high wall, and this is when the attackers who are not involved in pushing the ladder will come into the game, and they will rush up and knock the opponent off the wall as soon as possible. If you really can't repel it, you can simply pull it into the wall and push down the platform and hand it over to your comrades below to solve.

Once a monster falls from the high wall, the warriors who have been waiting for a long time below will rush up, spears and pitchforks and other long-handled weapons will first nail the monster to the ground, and then directly shoot the head, and wait until the shadow group drills out of the brain, and someone will immediately make up a few spears to completely end the opponent. With skillful and smooth movements, the key is to face the neighbors in the same town who have become monsters, and there is no hesitation in the action.

"They ......" Monica couldn't stand it anymore, she didn't dare to think about whether she could be as unhesitant as these people if these people were the townspeople of Thor Town.

"More than half of the injured people inside were injured because of hesitation, and if they hesitated, they were joking with their lives." Let a few people replace themselves, Algan, who was guarding the gate alone, withdrew, wiped his sweat and said, "According to this trend, everyone takes turns to go to the front line, and it should be no problem to hold out for another half a day, but if it takes longer, you won't be able to keep up without replenishment." Also, I ...... I'm sorry. ”

"Your deception is unforgivable, so we are here to collect our debts." Babu smiled and said, "If you want to apologize, just get through this crisis, and then honestly let us get a satisfactory reward, otherwise we will not be able to forgive you." ”

"That's it, brother-in-law." Linda said helplessly, "They seem to be very confident that we can solve the problem, although I can't understand where their confidence comes from, but what if, and they also mentioned it, so I plan to take them to see, you look at it first, I'll come over later to help." ”

"You...... Let's focus on your job as mayor first. Algum patted Linda on the shoulder and persuaded softly, "Your body can't support a high-intensity battle in a short period of time. Both, please take care of her more. ”

"Don't worry, brother-in-law, I'm not a child anymore." Linda glared at Algam complainingly, "Come with me, three, and I'll take you to our real shelter." ”

Linda led Monica and Barb back to the Great Hall, just below the stairs leading to the second floor, and there was a more hidden stone secret door, which was very thick, opened parallel to the ground, and was now open, with a downward staircase below.

Descending the ladder, the two found that their previous estimate was indeed correct, and there was an underground area below that was much larger than the above. The entire underground area is almost entirely stony, criss-crossed with corridors, and small but safe separate rooms, which can be seen to be a huge amount of work and quite sturdy construction.

"More than 50 years ago, the town was ransacked by locusts several times, causing a lot of damage." Linda was the first to walk down the stairs and let go of a few children chasing each other, "Since then, it has taken our grandparents and fathers more than thirty years to build this underground shelter. The shelter originally had a certain amount of food, but due to the widespread withering and poor harvest of crops a month ago, a lot of it was temporarily used, and coupled with the consumption of more than a thousand people in the past few days, it was almost exhausted. ”

Algan's daughter, Nina, like the other children, was hidden in an underground shelter, where the elderly and the sick were also arranged, taking care of the children and helping the warriors above with odd jobs, with only a few sturdy women running around in the underground area transporting supplies, and compared to the tense fighting on the first and second floors, the basement was not in the middle of the war, but it was obviously not easy either.

"The underground of the town is actually a natural underground cavern, the cave area is very large, this underground shelter uses part of the cave, enough to accommodate two thousand people to hide in it temporarily, and there is a deeper space inside. The path in the deep cave is very complicated, and the space is very large, which can lead to several special material warehouses, where combat materials such as medicines, weapons, and armor are stored, and the reserves are actually very rich. ”

"You say you have a lot of strategic reserves?" Linda took him around the underground shelter, the inside was indeed very strong, and it would be difficult to be captured under normal circumstances, but Babu frowned and said, "You even use farm tools and homemade spears outside the auditorium, which is called rich reserves?" ”

"Because we can't get it." Linda led the three of them to a thick iron door, and slapped the iron door fiercely, making a dull thud, "The deep cave is inside, but we can't get in." Also, the cave you're looking for is in the deepest part of this underground cavern, and unfortunately you can't get into it now. ”
