Section 175
The Rat Hive Eradication War took 1 hour and 14 minutes, killing 514 Nezumi without any injuries, and they also deliberately let go of Nezumi priests and some Nezumi elites.
The musketeers, whose faces were smoked with gunpowder, smiled whitely, and excitedly told their companions how many nezumi they had killed. Annan connived at them, and as the leader of the musketeers, the nezumi they killed should also be counted among themselves-
"I'll leave it to you to deal with the pollution." Annan and Olmedo said.
Olmedo and the scavenger team who came with him said, "I'll take care of the pollution." ”
"Quiet!"
Rosie looked at the group of proud lads with satisfaction, even though he had no children and was about their age. Annan opens the portal to send the Musketeers back to Starmoon Bay, and follows Olmedo back to Breezy City so that she can pass through the park.
"I'm going to see the centurion."
Thinking that he was going to Xingshi to ask for his guilt, the nezumi ran back to Breezy City and almost continued Annan's "banquet curse", and the scavenger didn't even notice it. But in reality, Annan has realized the essence of the scavenger's fart—two of the Knights of the Holy Grail have died, and the scavengers of the royal city are still wandering the streets.
Annan visited the centurion and asked him, "When will you repay me the 100 gold coins you borrowed from me in the royal capital?" ”
"When did I borrow it?"
"It's really a ...... How? "Annan thinks that there are also scavengers in Betal and Rich, so there are also two centurions there, right?
"Secret."
"Then you know what happened in the royal capital in real time?"
"Almost." The centurion walked around Annan and opened the door to see off the guests.
Annan sat down in the centurion's room: "Tell me what you think. ”
"What do you think?"
"The royal capital allowed the McCain nezumi to move north, and advanced to the foot of the royal city before 'defeating' the rat plague, killing two Holy Grail Knights and allowing the remaining nezumi to come to the north?"
It was like a meteorite falling from the sky and falling apart, except for the royal capital, the surrounding towns were all devastated, and only the nobles of the royal capital who survived the disaster celebrated.
"Look with my eyes."
It seemed that the centurion didn't want to say anything, Annan took a deep breath and stared at the centurion seriously: "Last question, what is the goal of the nezumen?" ”
"Maybe it's you." The centurion joked.
Annan gave up asking for secrets from her, the centurion is still here, and Breeze City should be fine...... But there are centurions everywhere, and who knows if it will be a few dead and fine.
The centurion sent Annan out, passing through the training hall, and Annan coveted these elites selected from Breeze City, and was annoyed that it was a waste to give scavengers who did nothing......
Stepping up the spiral steps, Annan remembered something from a long time ago: "What about the bard who took refuge in Chaos?" ”
"Dead."
"Dead?"
"He glimpsed the ultimate and magnificence in the chaos of disorder, and burned his soul into a star."
To say this, you have to be at least the level of a Chaos Executive...... Wouldn't it be that the scavengers were also infiltrated by the rat people?
Annan was worried about the newcomers, so when he returned to the City Lord's Mansion, he pulled Francois over: "I'll give you a mission." The scavengers who do nothing have recruited a group of newcomers to destroy the heavens, and I want you to find them and find a way to get them to join Xingyue Bay. ”
"What do you want me to do?"
"Coercion and temptation: You can't kill the rat man if you don't join Xingyue Bay, and you can kill the rat man by joining Xingyue Bay."
The people who joined the scavengers were all people who were enemies of the rat people, and it wouldn't be too troublesome for Annan to bewitch them. But before that, he had better consolidate his aura as a "nezumi nemesis".
The musketeers who had just returned to Starmoon Bay were recalled, and Annan urgently asked Elie Gravel to design a medal that could be painted on plate armor.
"Medals?"
"It's not a medal, it's a meritorious service."
Medals are used to recognize a battle, while meritorious deeds are used to recognize individual battles: they are graffiti on the right chest of plate armor, and the feats of killing a nezumi are a drop of blood, representing the first blood. Kill a hundred nezumi into red-colored blood, kill ten thousand nezumi into black blood, and then the first drop, the second drop, the third drop......
The Nezumi Head pattern represents killing an elite Nezumi to turn ten into a red rat head, and killing a hundred to turn into a black rat head.
There are special feats above ordinary rat men and elite rat men, but Annan hasn't thought about it yet, and the current Xingyue Bay is not needed.
Annan's idea made Eli Gravel tremble with excitement, and he had no doubt that the nezumi around Starmoon Bay would face any kind of catastrophe after the merit was activated—even the nezumi resident of Starmoon Bay had to be careful when he went out, beware of having his ears cut off by the soldiers who wanted to perform the merit.
After consulting with Eli Gravel before noon, Annan asked the City Lord's Mansion to prepare a paint for him, and borrowed the square of Breeze City to award meritorious service.
The crowd of onlookers outside the square blocked the square, and Annan stood on a makeshift platform and announced the rules of the Nezumi Medal to the musketeers in the warm sun:
"You can cut off the nezumi's right ear, and uncounted combat kills will be evenly distributed. So in this battle, you are divided into 500 rat men out of 100! ”
Erie Gravel and his artisan assistants painted blood on the chests of the soldiers' plate armor.
As for Annan, the owner of the Nezumi Buster, the Frost Giant, and the Knights Defense Medal, and the lord of Starmoon Bay, Annan deserves the sweet fruit of this victory - he was rewarded with two red blood and black rat head cloth feats that represent the killing of hundreds of nezumi and elite nezumi, respectively.
That's the apple pie he made for this plate of cane sugar.
The reward that was the envy of everyone, including the Breeze City guards who maintained order, lasted until late afternoon. The crowd of onlookers dispersed and came back, and when the chests of all the musketeers were coated with drops of blood full of honor, the newly separated team had a hint of iron and blood.
After a few more battles, they will become true warriors and elites.
Because Annan's magic had not yet recovered, all the musketeers were forced to stay in Breezy for a day. That evening, the Olmedo family's wagon with a hundred ceremonial dresses arrived and distributed them to the musketeers, inviting them to a celebratory feast in the name of Olmedo, just in case.
Annan watched with indulgence as a group of soldiers, much larger than himself, curiously played around the banquet hall, gathered around the table to stuff something in their mouths, or held hands and danced around the dance floor.
A figure came to his side, exuding the faint fragrance of a flower garden in the sun.
"You'd better speed up."
But the words spoken were like a storm approaching.
"What's wrong?"
"Nezumi are faster than expected ......"
"Next spring? Around the New Year? It's not going to be this winter, is it......"
Olmedo answered Annan's last guess: "With the speed at which they travel, yes." ”
