From the time the Blue Dragon landing portal opened to the time the battle line was pushed near the low wall, it took the elementals and the soldiers fifteen minutes, but they couldn't push any further.

There was an endless tide of brown rats tumbling into the low walls, and the piles of rat carcasses blocked the range of the musketeers, and allowed the swarms of rats to fall from the heights.

The large earth elementals in the front row were damaged, and the insidious elite nezumi mingled in the rat tide, smashing off the earth elemental's armor with their sharp weapons.

Fortunately, the search in the rear is getting faster and faster, and hundreds of residents have been rescued from houses, cellars and docks.

Confirming that no survivors were missed, Warlord Captain Fast blew the ancient trumpet from the Northlands.

As the battle lines shrank, the pressure on the elementals plummeted. Fast looked at the sea and said, "There are still some survivors at sea......"

Annan remembered what the cowardly girl had said: "Are there women and children on board?" ”

"It's all men......"

"I think they'll be fine."

"Keep firing!" Fermi, who had withdrawn from the front, shouted: "Don't let me go back and see your guns and bullets!" ”

"Shoot your bullets!" Not to be outdone, Rossi commanded.

The musketeers' ammunition bags were rationed fifty rounds, and most of them were almost empty, except for a few unlucky ones who got stuck and the trigger failed.

The wounded musketeers were the first to retreat to the portal, and then the ammunition bags were emptied, and when it was the turn of all the musketeers to retreat, they casually pulled the trigger towards the rat tide in the distance, not caring if the hapless nezumi would be killed, or whether it would be considered a meritorious service.

It was the turn of the Overseers to retreat into the portal for all the musketeers, a special squad with the Eternal Philosopher's Stone that also served as a record of the Soldier's exploits.

Finally, the elements. Let the fire elementals release the wall of fire together to give a parting gift to the rats, Annan closed the portal and climbed onto the dragon's back.

Elimoas swung her dragon wings into the air, and the black wave that surged over the ground in an instant.

The ratmen who had crossed over the two dozen walls of fire turned into torches, their coarse cilia just big enough to ignite their companions. The flaming nezumi squeaked and threw themselves into the water.

The nezumi can swim, but when thousands of nezumi pounce into the sea, the nezumi who extinguish the flames try to climb ashore and are squeezed into the deep sea by their companions, and finally sink into the ocean exhausted.

Annan looked down at the chaotic rat tide on the ground, and this wave of parting gifts was probably more than the rat people they had killed in fifteen minutes of their special operation.

It's just that the nezumi will approach Starmoon Bay after the blizzard, when winter has arrived, the flames will no longer have this effect, and the cold of November will not freeze the nezumi to death...... Unless with the Eight Rings spell, Blizzard.

And this rat tide does not have rats above the elite rat man...... Are they concentrated in the direction of Betar City and Breeze City? Or are these rats just strikers?

Looking at the surging waves of abhorrence, the shallow sea dyed with filth, and the survivors waving on the surface of the sea, Annan patted the dragon on the back.

Elias flew north over Glacier Harbor.

……

After admitting hundreds of survivors, the empty houses in Starmoon Bay are finally getting full.

They were too close to the nezumi, and some were injured by the nezumi to prevent the spread of the plague. They were quarantined in the mansion with all the soldiers, and were treated by the mage.

Ingrid and her assistants counted the casualties, nostalgic for the priests before the turmoil, whose magic was much better than the mage's healing.

"No musketeers died, but seventeen soldiers were wounded......"

Ingrid reported the results to Annan at the cost of the seven large earth elementals dissipating forever.

The elements summoned by the magic ring are only projections, but when they are pulled out by Annan's "low-level summoning technique", they become the main body. Their death means a real disappearance, allowing the Earth Elemental content of the Allen Continent to rise forever.

"Erect seven tombstones for them in the cemetery." Annan sighed.

"Earth elementals?"

"They're also people."

Although Annan never succeeded in communicating with the elements.

Annan and Ingrid went to the hospital to visit the wounded and then to the quarantine camp.

The musketeers were excitedly talking about the rescue. They went through real battles, and they saved hundreds of people back—

"Why is your ammo bag still full?"

"Don't mention it, my musket jammed just after the third shot!" The young soldier complained about the "snap" and slap the barrel of the gun.

"You must not have prayed to the god of muskets."

"I believe in the goddess of magic......"

"Hell, you don't have a magical affinity!"

"What if there is faith after it? Then the bullet I shoot will be enchanted by the goddess of magic...... I see those elite rats, don't mention how gluttonous. ”

"They're hungry for you, too."

The soldiers were not frightened by the endless rat tide. This scene made Annan so happy that he even wanted to form a third musket team. Then they gave up because of the imminent deficit of finance. The musketeers are suitable for active attack and individual combat, and to defend the city, you still have to choose magic artillery.

Annan finds Fermi, the captain of Hellfire, who is unfiguratively paralyzed with a bunch of "centurion" musketeers. Annan's arrival made them scramble to get up and wipe the dust off their exploits.

"Lord Annan!"

"How does it feel?" Annan asked.

"Much more accomplished than catching rat people on the coast, it's ......"

"What?"

The fierce and cruel man on the battlefield changed his face and seemed to show a sincere smile: "It's too slow to shoot one shot at a time, do you have a good idea to let the musket fire all the time?" ”

It took them a long time to get their hands on the bright red blood...... If they had this musket, they would have kept the nezumi from touching the walls!

"Yes."

Without improving the process, the rotary torch meets the needs of the most Fermi. However, Annan was not ready to develop it for the time being - for the same reason that a third musket team was not formed: no money and inferior artillery.

However, Fermi's thoughts reminded Annan of one thing: "You are at war with the nezumi a lot, so if you have any similar ideas, talk to Copperbeard." By the way, pick out the most heroic hundred, and I'm going to give them secret missions. ”

Then Annan said this to Lotsi, and found that Rosie was going to follow him.

"I'm one of the 100 most valian!" Lossy proudly slapped the bright red blood on the plate armor.

Annan asked them to join the Hellfire Elite outside the camp, and Losi, who arrived, found that Fermi was also ...... They both had the same idea.

Next, Annan's arrangements were presented in turn, a white dragon fell, the Overseer appeared with the Eternal Magic Stone and several carts of ammunition boxes, and Mr. Fast commanded the earth element to surround the white dragon, the musketeer to surround the earth element, and the water element to surround the musketeer, and surround the white dragon with solemnity, as if the nezumi were about to emerge from the ground......

It's just why let a few chefs run in front of the white dragon to cook ......?
