Whoosh –

An arrow slices through the afterimage and into the head of a nezumi.

Seeing the elf cut in, Fermi didn't wait any longer, picked up his magic musket and aimed it at the nezumi on the slope, and pulled the trigger.

"Fire!"

The deafening sound of gunfire echoed over the drums, announcing their arrival to the surrounding beings for dozens of miles.

Natured to love seclusion, the elves who hate noisy elves frown and withdraw from the battlefield.

They knew the noise of the magic muskets, but they didn't know how noisy they could be......

Giving up the front line to the humans, they ran to the rear to clear out the nezumi who had rounded the sides.

Annan glanced at it and turned his attention to the soldier.

Because of the first battle, many recruits couldn't help but tremble and seemed to be in a hurry. Another soldier somehow took the gun in his opposite direction and was about to pull the trigger when he was kicked down on the spot by the patrolling centurion.

The bad news is that no matter how much training you have, there will always be some chaos without actual combat......

The good news is that they have time to train recruits into cold veterans.

The magic musket was almost a natural enemy of the slave rats, and with the fact that the nezumi were evenly matched, they could not rush within fifty yards of the defensive line.

The battlefield is clearly demarcated.

On one side of the battlefield, gunpowder smoke rises, and on the other side of the battlefield, there are mopher corpses everywhere.

After a few minutes, the gunfire began to subside, and the rat colony in the surrounding grasslands was temporarily empty.

The Hellfire Legion did not use artillery, did not attrition, and was a complete victory.

In general, Annan was quite satisfied. The only two wounded were also indirect...... One was so nervous that he sprained his waist while carrying ammunition, and the other was kicked down by the centurion with the wrong gun, resulting in a sprained hip.

But some veterans were not too satisfied. Because they had to move between the recruits, they didn't have a chance to shoot......

For example, Fermi took a few centurions to clean up the battlefield and find trouble with the sporadic ratmen.

He quickly approached a dazed nezumi and staggered at the approaching human approaching nezumi with their fangs bared their fangs.

Fermi pulled out the already loaded oralcosm and pulled the trigger.

Bang –

It was very different from the magic musket, and the dull sound of gunfire that shook the heart rang out.

"This thing is really powerful......" Fermi, who was already a professional, shook his wrist and felt numb in his mouth.

He had no doubt that if he were still an ordinary person, his wrist would be broken on the spot when he pulled the trigger, and the muzzle of the gun would be raised to the sky.

As for the nezumi who have endured all their might...... It felt as if it had been hit by a hammer, its ribcage almost shattered, and it could see the scenery on the other side through its bloody and tattered chest.

Enemies without armor are broken and enemies with heavy armor survive by luck.

After cleaning up the remaining nezumi, the goblins dispatched and began to clean up the battlefield and cut off the nezumen's ears.

Fermi was also helping, as well as broken teeth.

"You don't have to." Annan stopped the broken tooth that had been picked up on his own initiative, and said to it: "I know a word called converts' fanaticism. If a being betrays his race, he will be more ferocious to his race in order to show his loyalty...... But I'm not the kind of lord who only knows what to do, and I trust you. ”

Broken teeth indicate that they know, and then continue to harvest the ears of their kind......

Annan had no choice but to let it continue, and asked the ghost that floated back: "Have you taken a picture?" ”

The three-color ghost swirls in mid-air, which should mean "clear".

After cleaning up the battlefield quickly, the soldiers handed over the bloody sacks to the mage to purify and threw them into the portal that Annan had opened to the northern city wall.

Fermi came with the statistical results: "Lord Annan, there are seven thousand three hundred and eighty in total. ”

"Less than you think."

"There must be seven thousand five hundred nezumi, and many of them have had their ears shattered."

Annan looked into the distance, and the surrounding area was empty for more than ten miles. Seeing their strength, coupled with the scarcity of companions, the rat people farther away did not dare to come again.

They can be regarded as robbing the military merits of their neighbors on both sides, but they robbed them anyway......

"Continue to disperse, disperse the rat people who clean up this grassland, and light a fire to warn if they encounter danger."

No matter how fast the other coalition forces are, they will not be able to reach this grassland until evening, and this is a good opportunity for them to grab the head.

Fermi warns recruits excited about the victory not to take it lightly.

The current slave rat pack is the best rat pack to deal with, followed by the mixed rat pack......

It's not the elite rats that hide in the swarm, it's the rats whose palms are as big as carpets. They are endless, pervasive, and like a tidal wave, they pounce and bite, even the caster can't do anything about them, only the archmage can disperse the rats. It's a scaled-down version of the rat tide.

Today's weather is good, and the clouds in the distance will not drift here for the time being, and the visibility is very high.

The white dragon patrolled in the air, and Annan took a few people and climbed on the back of the white dragon to continue to explore.

"Lord Annan, there's movement over there." Blom, who was on the back of the dragon next to him, suddenly pointed to the side and shouted.

Annan looked over and saw a group of black dots chasing a black dot.

"What are they chasing?"

"Like a human ......"

"Sketcher!"

On the other side, the sketchpad man on the dragon's back is facing Annan, and he quickly sketches out the situation there: a man holding a jar is hiding from the nezumi.

It is doubtful why there is a human in the wilderness full of rat people, but Annan still ordered: "Land, save people." ”

The man staggered away from the nezumi, and as if he was exhausted, he kicked off a piece of turf and threw himself forward, knocking over the jar in his arms, spilling some light ashes.

The man screamed and got up, but instead of running away, grabbed the ashes into the jar with the turf attached.

Whew-

A shadow suddenly fell overhead, and the man looked up in a daze, and saw a white dragon carrying a knight swooping down, slamming it to the ground, pressing the three nezumi under their claws.

Then several more white dragons landed, easily taking out a dozen nezumi.

"Who are you?"

Annan sat on the dragon's back, staring down at the suspicious man.

"I ...... The caravan and I were attacked by the nezumi and got separated......" the man said nervously, suddenly with a spirit, "I have important news, there are a lot of nezumi in the north!" ”

"How much?"

This is exactly the information Annan needs.

"All over the mountains!"

"I see."

Annan looked at the jar in the man's arms again.

He couldn't help but clench: "This ...... This is my wife's ashes! ”

Annan's cheeks softened: "Don't worry, we are a coalition army." You go south along the grassland, and about 70 miles you can see the Great Wall of the North, which used to be Middle-earth. ”

"Take your family home."

"Thank you...... Thank you...... Without you, I'd be in the belly of the nezumi......"

The man thanked him repeatedly, hugged the urn, and walked south like a devout believer, disappearing into a forest.

Entering the forest, the man sat down against the roots, then carefully opened the jar and pulled out the gems hidden in the ashes......
