Section 84
The people of the city saw the recalcitrant warriors on the riverside, and they relieved the pressure of the warriors in their own way by throwing flower pots and firewood from the edge of Liberty City and smashing the hapless nezumi to death.
Liberty City came directly above the warriors, gradually lowered, and finally suspended about a hundred meters above their heads, the deep shadow finally made the rat tide know what horror was, and stopped screaming and rushed forward.
Dean Brehim opened the portal and released the energetic Legion of the Guards and the city's pros who were shouting for revenge, and brought back their warriors.
They switched offense and defense with the rats, chasing the rats along the riverside, while the civilians gathered in front of the square. At first they were celebrating the heroes, but when the warriors, who were covered in blood and each with varying degrees of injury, and even fainted after crossing the portal, appeared, their cheers turned to respect and silence.
The losses were even worse than Annan had imagined, and he personally sent them to the battlefield, but less than a third of them returned......
Annan looked at Fermi, who had a broken arm in front of him, he knelt down on one knee in front of Annan, and lowered his head that would never bow to the nezumi: "Lord Annan, you saved us again. ”
"Your hand ......"
"At least I'm alive." Fermi tilted his head to look at the empty cuffs absently, "This is a warrior's feat. ”
"Ingrid, take the soldiers to the hospital."
The hospital had been vacated, but apparently it could not accommodate more than 2,000 wounded, so the seriously injured were admitted to the ward, while the minor injuries camped out in front of the hospital.
Olmedo, who was standing beside Annan, suddenly faltered as she saw a wandering nezumi wearing the Breezy City standard plate armor that it had ripped from them.
"The rat tide caught up with us yesterday, and Mr. Blom and his nephew led three hundred warriors to stop the rat tide."
But it's not all a happy story, the young Hellfire soldier says he wants to free his companion who has been bitten by the rats, but he allows himself to shoot the rats. The warriors said that their companions had been bitten in the throat by the nezumi because they were unable to lift their weapons.
At this moment, an elven ranger, who was Ymir's companion, approached and asked Annan if they wanted to go back to Hell Mountain to find Ymir
"We'll go back to Hell Mountain. Save her if she's there, avenge her if she's not there. Annan assured.
Annan and Itilia said that they personally went to the hospital to comfort each of the fighters.
"Eldest sister, you accompany Olmedo, I'll go to the hospital to have a look."
Blom was not the only one who was killed, many of Annan's familiar faces were gone, such as Ymir......
"Lotie, take your people and professionals to clean up the rat colony, and leave no one behind." Annan ordered coldly.
In that blood-stained land where the early morning sun shone down, they saw only swarms of wandering rats and broken blood-stained weapons and armor, not a single intact corpse.
After visiting the seriously injured, Annan went to the open space in front of the hospital that was crowded with the wounded, and soon mingled with the wounded who had just climbed up from hell.
The blood debt must be paid in blood.
Everyone had already been picked up, except for those who had just run down and were still killing on the ground, and Annan gave up the idea of calling them back.
Annan sat in front of the campfire and listened quietly to the warrior saying that he had used his biceps to pop the head of a nezumi, and then a ranger came forward and said that he had cut off the nezumi's head with a bowstring, and another mage said that he had smashed the nezuman's head with a staff.
They have no hope that Blom is still alive...... After all, they didn't see anything when they came, but they still picked up the people on the ground and floated to the place where Blom stopped the rat tide.
Hospitals were overcrowded, and wounded people with high fevers from wound infections and plague were not even eligible to enter the hospital.
Olmedo was silent.
At this time, Olmedo suddenly asked, "What about Uncle Blom?" ”
Another female mage dressed in blood-stained mage robes and silk gloves walked over, and Annan remembered her, Georgina, an elite mage. She said inexplicably, "I still think you look better." ”
"You are the most beautiful people."
Georgina's tired but bright eyes lit up: "Are you complimenting me on my beauty?" ”
"Of course, you have qualities that I have rarely seen in a woman." Annan said sincerely.
Elimoas, the eldest sister Itilia, Lady Winter, Princess Sayles, the princess, the princess, etc...... All have the same qualities.
In addition to telling their glorious deeds, one of the most important concerns of the wounded is whether they will launch a counterattack.
"Of course, tooth for tooth, eye for eye, blood debt must be paid in blood!"
The wounded around him suddenly burst into jubilation: "Did you hear that?" Lord Annan wants to destroy the rat people of the entire mountain range! ”
"What are you talking about? Wipe out the nezumi of the entire mountain range...... Why don't you say I'm going to wipe out the McCain clan? ”
"Do you hear that? Lord Annan wants to destroy this nezumi clan! ”
When leaving, Annan was stuffed with several suicide notes in his arms.
Everyone's suicide notes disappeared with Ymir's disappearance, and these suicide notes were written by them on the way to break through, and their owners were all dead.
Annan could not find a suitable person, so he simply acted as a messenger himself and delivered these suicide notes to their relatives.
The family members who received the suicide note were crying and laughing, and after picking up the soldiers, they went to the hospital as soon as possible, but they did not find their family and husband, and realized the bad news, but they did not expect that Lord Annan would personally send the suicide note.
Annan didn't like the atmosphere, and only told them that after the war, Liberty City would give honor and pension to the soldiers, and come to the last address.
But as he got closer and closer to the mansion, Annan's footsteps became heavier and heavier.
He's been to this place...... Or rather, during the war with the Mad Dog Grand Duke, he came once.
That time also brought the death of the soldier.
When Annan knocked on the familiar room 302, it was just a coincidence that it was just the same mansion or the same floor.
Click-
The door opened, and a woman with a somewhat pale face and an old woman stood behind it.
"Lord Annan?" The woman spoke in astonishment, and her face turned even paler.
"Is this Ram Blatter's home?"
The woman held on to the door frame, but she could not stand still and fainted.
The old woman helplessly held her up, and called for a neighbor who poked his head out to carry her back to the room.
"Please be seated, Lord Annan, did Ram die on the battlefield?"
Compared to the younger woman, the old woman is much calmer. She read through the vicissitudes of life, and there was no sadness in her eyes.
"Well, this is a suicide note kept by his comrades."
The old woman calmly took the bloody suicide note, glanced at it a few times, and shook her head: "I knew that he would say in the letter where he stole private money, but in fact, everyone knows about it." ”
