From the very beginning of its existence, Liberty City had nothing to do with grandeur.

Although it has a sophistication and planning that even the elves will be happy with, no one will associate it with grandeur.

At this moment, it floats on the plains where the morning sun casts, casting large shadows, silent and magnificent.

The council chamber of the city lord's mansion, except for the main officials of Liberty City in Annan, gathered here.

"What about Annan?"

Olmedo changed into a black aristocratic costume with a solemn expression, as if the original Lord of Breeze City had returned.

"He's gone to see the blue dragon." Ingrid said.

"Then let's announce it first."

Olmedo stood up and picked up a list of counted deaths:

"Of the five thousand Hellfire Legions, three thousand eight hundred and sixty-eight were killed."

"Of the five hundred men of the Fourth Legion, two hundred and eighty-one were killed."

As long as there is evidence that they held out until the 12th, the Orr Empire is no longer in a position to point fingers and issue orders against them - if necessary, these records can also be used as evidence to criticize the stupid orders of the "Orr Empire".

There is a knock on the door to the council chamber, and Etilia thinks it's Annan, but Ormedo knows that Annan won't knock.

Evelyn came in with Aloma and held up the Magic Recording Stone, "She recorded all the shots of the warriors holding on to Hell Mountain and breaking out!" ”

Olmedo gave Etilia a "do you see" look: "How is Elimoas?" ”

But all the soldiers were conclusive that they had evacuated at midnight on the 12th, and Evelyn had already gone out to find evidence.

Olmedo, on the other hand, believes that it is better to wait and see what happens. They don't mind revenge on the nezumi, but they want to take revenge with a purpose, and on the way here, they bypass the Great Wall of the North, which has turned into a terrifying meat grinder, and rashly participating in the war is likely to cheapen the Orr Empire over there.

Just ten minutes ago, the messenger of the Orr Empire arrogantly came to Freetown, declaring that Freetown did not hold out until the 12th, and asked to recruit Floating City to go to the Gray Mountain Range to stop the rat tide.

Liberty City's hard-earned family money returned to the beginning of its establishment overnight.

This is war, victory based on human life.

"Of the 4,200 foreign aid legions, 2,926 were killed."

Knock Knock Knock –

In general, the atmosphere in Liberty City is harmonious, with the main battle faction on both sides, one faction believing that it should be fought and the other faction believing that the former is not aggressive enough.

"There are 100 people in the elite team, and no one survives."

The people led by Lady Winter don't want to return to Gem Bay so disgraced, they will at least give the nezumi some trouble.

"Looks like we'll be able to ignore the ridiculous orders of the Orr Empire." Olmedo breathed a sigh of relief.

The people at the round table looked silently at the list that seemed to be dripping blood in Olmedo's hand.

The issue divides the chamber.

"The warriors have all been picked up, when are we going back?"

They can only comfort themselves: at least we still have survivors, the more than fifty allied armies scattered in the Gray Mountain Range in the north have all been wiped out, and those who have escaped by luck have also been punished as deserters by the Orr Empire-

Although this sentiment is very undeserved, the hatred brought by the broken tooth and the events just happened make them expect the Orr Empire to fall on the Great Wall of the North.

At this time, the door of the council hall was pushed open, and Annan's figure appeared at the door.

"Uh...... I gave her a box of gold coins and she was fine. Annan didn't talk too much about this sad topic, "I just went to Ram Blatter's house......"

"The soldier who wrote the suicide note?" Olmedo has a good memory.

"Well, his brother Rem died in the war with the Mad Dog Grand Duke."

"That's really ......," Olmedo didn't know what to say, "his family must be sad, right?" ”

"Well, his wife fainted when she heard the news of her husband's death, but his mother was calm, I think it happened once......"

The bigwigs in the council chamber listened quietly to Annan's story about an ordinary soldier.

This can only happen in Liberty City.

"They don't have any men in their house, right? We should raise pensions and give them jobs. ”

"At that time, the pension was not spent...... That's not the point. As I was about to go out, the mother suddenly asked me, 'Is my son brave on the battlefield?' ’”

The crowd was in awe of the heroic mother.

"I said, 'Yes, he is the bravest fighter'......"

Annan had actually been back for a while, and listened outside the door for a long time: "So what I want to say is that we are all here, and it is too cheap to leave like this." ”

They also have to fight the nezumi, but not for the Orr Empire.

Olmedo realized this and asked straight to the point, "Which side are you on?" ”

"In the middle."

"I'm in favor of Olmedo's purposeful beatings, and I'm in favor of Lady Winter beating them." Annan spread out his hand, "The rat tide is endless, how can we kill it?" ”

"And what's the difference between using the Floating City to deal with the rat tide and using the Fireball Technique to kill slave rats?"

As for revenge, it will attract the grudge of the McCain clan...... Did they ever think they would hold a grudge against the Freetownspeople when they killed them?

"Do you really want to settle the McCain Clan?" Olmedo frowned.

"That's just a ...... spread by the soldiers"

When the magic muskets and magic cannons can be fired in a row, and the Hellfire Legion is more numerous than the total population now, it will be a luxury to hope for it at that time.

On the way to Hell Mountain to try to save Ymir, Annan sat down in the council chamber and discussed a solution.

Although the floating city is invincible, it lacks effective means of exterminating rodents.

"What do the other Floating Cities do?" Annan asked.

"No one has let the Floating City go to war." Dean Brechhim said.

Annan didn't believe it and looked at Skeletron.

"The number of times the Floating City has participated in the war is indeed only a handful."

"Why?" Annan was puzzled.

The Floating City is not afraid of forbidden demons, and it is still an air unit, which is simply a natural war fortress.

"Because the Floating City is the Floating City of the nobles." Olmedo gave Annan an answer.

The original intention of the Floating City was to show status, not to go to war. How can you continue the family if you are desperate?

It's like the famous joke: there are only nobles who surrender, and there are no nobles who die.

"Don't you know how to make the Floating City fight?"

Skeletron said, "We know, Annan, but we can't do it in the current Liberty City. ”

A standard combat-type floating city will inevitably have several mage towers as turrets. Liberty City has a mage tower, but only an unfinished mage tower.

Annan spent all his money on how to escape and defend, and didn't think about the offense at all.

While everyone was pondering, the maid Abby knocked on the door and pushed the dining cart in: "Aunt Susan has made apple pie and barbecue, you can discuss while eating." ”

People who thought about the headache suddenly exclaimed: "Amazing! ”
