Section 191 Rat plague and demon tide
At the foot of the snow-capped mountains, an unimaginable scene is happening in the camp.
When the sentinels on the watchtower saw a black rat tide coming out of the snow forest, ringing the bell in a hurry, the people who hurried out of the houses looked like hell.
"Can anyone tell me why the rat tide is here!" The disheveled camp leader ran to the bottom of the watchtower, "Where's Breeze City!" How they bypassed Breeze City! ”
No one answered him, only the desperate screams of the young sentry echoed over the camp: "We're done!" They come like a tidal wave! ”
"Shut up!" The person in charge shouted, looked around at the dozens of people in the camp, and made a decision: "Old man! Take your griffin to the snowy mountains and bring the news to the fortress! ”
"I'm too old......" the old man shook his head.
"Shut up, too! This thing only listens to you! ”
Three people can sit on the griffin. The person in charge threw the young sentry and a boy on it and watched the griffin take off. At this time,
A glowing green aura suddenly emerged from the rat tide, following the griffon's silhouette and drawing a trajectory, getting closer and closer.
Betty ...... Send them to the fortress. ”
The old man reluctantly patted the griffin's back, and the withered figure got up, and took the initiative to crash into the evil energy that chased the griffin's tail, melting into green liquid.
The person in charge who watched this scene was both sad and happy, and his eyes returned to the rat tide shaking the earth, and his sweaty hands held his weapons.
The rat tide climbed over the low wooden wall, and the person in charge suppressed his fear with a roar at the moment:
"Attack!"
The silhouette of them rushing into the rat tide was like a splash of water, and disappeared in an instant.
The rat tide that had flooded the camp continued to surge, turning into a black line that spread towards the majestic snow-capped mountains.
An hour later, the sentinel and the boy, who had lost their will in the cold wind, were taken to the fortress by griffons.
As soon as the griffin landed, the crack that exuded an evil aura suddenly opened in front of the two frozen and stiff boys, and they were once again grabbed by despair after fleeing despair, and before they could react, a holy light was like an evil sword that purified the demon that had drilled out of the crack.
"The demons are restless again...... What happened to the camp? A master spellcaster in mage robes asked with a frown.
"Rat...... Rat...... The rat tide is coming up the hill! ”
……
Bang bang –
The sound of muskets echoed incessantly over the city walls.
Olmedo handed over a section of about 200 meters of defense to Annan's two musketeers, and had a new captain of the guard follow them, so that the rat tide would not be too slow for the ratmen to climb up.
"Can you trust them, do you see the graffiti on the plate armor?" Olmedo said at the time.
The captain of the guard seemed to have heard of the exploits of Starmoon Bay, and asked the city lord of Olmedo, "This is what they all mean by killing the nezumi?" ”
This is not a big deal, there are not ten or eight rat men they have killed these days, and if it weren't for the fact that there were too many rat men, they wouldn't have been able to go out of the city to clear them......
"That's bright red blood, which means that everyone has annihilated more than a hundred nezumi."
"How is this possible!" The captain of the guard lost his voice.
"Why can't it be? At that time, there were 800,000 rats in the first wave of rat tide in Xingyue Bay, and more than half of them were solved by them. To dispel the pride of the new captain of the guard, she added: "By two thousand musketeers." ”
And what appeared in front of the new guard captain was that these musketeers made the rat tide unable to even touch the city walls! He even wanted to suggest that Olmedo also equip his soldiers with magic muskets, and that two thousand musketeers were responsible for the two hundred meters of the city wall, and only needed ...... More than 800,000 musketeers...... Never mind.
Looking at the fireball technique on the side exploding in the rat tide, several nezumi exploded into minced meat, and the flames ignited dozens of nezumi, the new guard captain thought that it was better to magic...... But it's still envious.
They didn't want to kill a nezumi by pulling the trigger, even if the archer pulled the bow dozens of times in a row, it couldn't hold it......
The movement of the musketeers also attracted the attention of the mages who were helping around the city walls.
"Is this a new invention from the King of the North? Can I try it? A mage curiously leaned over to Lossy's side.
"Why not?"
From outcasts to guardsmen, to captains of 1,000 soldiers, to killing hundreds of nezumi, these experiences have transformed Rosie.
Rosie handed his gun to the mage, who learned from the other musketeers to raise their muskets and aim them at the nezumi under the walls, pulling the trigger - nothing happened.
"You've got to load the bullets first, and then you're going to ......"
Rossi taught the mage how to use it, he pulled the trigger again, the muzzle of the gun was slightly raised, the smoke rose, and the mage unfortunately missed the selected nezumi, and luckily got into the head of a nezumi a few meters away.
There was no loss of mana, and there was no ugly wielding of weapons like warriors, and the mage and his companions exclaimed, "Ryan, this thing works better than magic!" ”
"How to sell!"
"10 gold handfuls, 10 handfuls for sale!"
Losey's straightened waist bent a little.
"Hmm...... But it's useless for me to ask for so much. The mage said embarrassedly.
"You can give it to your friends, and they might be interested."
"Great idea!"
The atmosphere on the city walls was no longer solemn, and even a little relaxed, but the Lord's Mansion in Starmoon Bay and the City Lord's Mansion in Breeze City were gloomy.
"The nezumi are targeting the snowy mountain ......"
Annan said and thought as he spoke...... That makes sense why the Stoun is here.
"The Sturne Rats have been dormant in the ground of Breez for hundreds of years to clear the biggest obstacle to the snowy mountains. But their plot failed, so the McCain rat came......"
"Why did Wang Du do this?"
Yes, the south is a rat plague, the north is a demon tide, is the royal family tired of crooked...... The sacrifice that Madame Winter said would never be the sacrifice of the royal family itself......
"The eldest prince is a rat man!"
Annan exclaimed, and then Olmedo had an expression of "what nonsense are you talking about".
"That's the eldest prince is corrupted!"
"The royal capital is full of legendary epics, and if you want to corrupt the great prince, you must first deal with them."
"Maybe they've been corrupted too, and the death of the two Grail Knights ......," Annan said as he looked out the window: "I left someone on the Snow Mountain Fortress, I'll let my people remind the fortress first......"
As he spoke, Annan looked at the snow-capped mountains outside the window, and was suddenly stunned.
"Olmedo, look out the window."
Olmedo, who was glowing with magic, couldn't work, so the curtains were drawn in the office. Olmedo walked around his desk and was about to open the curtains when hurried footsteps came from outside the hallway.
Her guard appeared outside without knocking: "Lord of the city! Snow Mountain ......"
Brushed up——
Olmedo opened the curtains, and the streets were filled with pedestrians and aristocrats looking north, and she looked into the distance and saw a black line rising from the foot of the mountain, painting the snow-capped mountains with filthy colors......
Annan was right, the real goal of the McCain clan was to defend the Snowy Mountain Fortress against the Demon Tide.
