Chapter 336 Who said there are not enough people?
If based on past experience.
There is nothing wrong with Grandpa Gale’s thinking.
Sticking to it is the most stable and error-free method.
During the monster red tide, if there is a monster that sneaks in through the temporary gap in the [Past Glory] barrier and wanders around the town.
The safe way is to wait for the Crusaders and the King's Army to finish defeating the monsters at the border defense line, and the red sun sets, and then go back and pick up the lone monsters one by one.
Or simply hire a group of mercenaries to help.
Monsters wandering and entrenching near the town will at most pollute the surrounding land and environment, but will not cause any serious problems.
As they die, the pollution slowly dissipates.
To put it bluntly.
This threat is limited, becomes weaker and weaker as the monster dies, and can even be completely eliminated in the end.
Holding on is a safe option.
But this time things are different!
All abnormalities are symptoms caused by the chain reaction of the gods’ corruption;
Don't look at the fact that most of the monsters wandering in Raven Town are level 0 monsters. In terms of danger, they are completely incomparable to the monster red tide.
But this is just the beginning!
Because these monsters didn’t rush in from outside the border;
Rather, it was nourished and born locally under the pollution of the void!
If you leave it alone.
The more chaotic and harsh the environment near Raven Town is, the more dangerous the monsters that can be nurtured here will be!
Level 1, 2, 3 or even higher are possible!
The defensive pressure will increase.
And this can't stop the degeneration of the goddess of illusion!
What's more, the Crusaders have "lost their chain."
In old Baron Franklin's "concept", he thought that when an abnormality occurred in the Glow God's Religion, the Crusaders would immediately dispatch the Crusaders to various places to support and maintain order.
Actually - no!
This information is currently only known to the believers of the Qiushi Church.
There are instant messengers that ignore distance communication, and believers who have witnessed every move of the Glow God Religion can quickly pass the corresponding news to others.
With the upgraded [Instant Messenger] magic, it can be shared directly on the information platform, and everyone can check it.
"Grandpa, you can't stand firm!"
"Tell you the truth."
"This situation is very special. The birth of those monsters outside is related to the stability of our area."
"Abandon other townspeople who have not yet been saved, and our defensive pressure will increase dramatically!"
"Helping them helps us."
"If you don't believe it, you can go out and have a look."
It's easy to get evidence.
Just leave the manor and take a walk outside to find out.
Old Baron Franklin is a level 3 warrior. After putting on armor and picking up a weapon, he can still easily deal with ordinary level 0 monsters.
After walking around the town for a while, old Baron Franklin returned to the manor with a solemn expression.
Compared with the relaxation he felt when he left the manor, his state became much heavier.
The armor on his body and the weapons in his hands were dripping with black pus and blood, and there were also some messy dirt on them.
Like pieces of flesh or torn skin from monster corpses.
Obviously the result of more than one battle.
"Kid, you seem to be right!"
"There are scattered level 0 monsters around the manor;"
"Far away from us, I can see a lot of level 1 monsters, and even a level 2 monster!"
The threat of monsters is increasing.
This was the one thing that made old Franklin's scalp tingle.
He is a level 3 warrior.
Gale's father is only a level 2 warrior.
If you don't count Gale, they are the only two professional combatants in Raven Town now!
Don't forget.
This is the hunting month.
Some of the adventurers and mercenaries who would have stayed in the town to take on the commissions all went to the dark forest to participate in the Hunting of the Moon.
The disaster happened to be stuck at such a critical time point.
Two fists are no match for four claws, not to mention that one facehugger monster alone has eight arms and legs;
...When old Franklin went out to investigate the situation, Gale was not idle either.
He posted the relevant information about Raven Town on the information platform shared by the Church of Knowledge.
“The total local population is close to 500;
Monsters are currently mainly at level 0;
There is no shortage of survival resources such as food for the time being;
There are a large number of townspeople in need of rescue and resettlement. "
The temporary command center on Pett's side adjusted its needs equally quickly.
Based on the town's population and the number of monsters, the manpower needed was listed immediately.
[Raven Town, Contact Person: Gail Franklin]
[Only believers within 30 kilometers from Raven Town can respond to requests. After successful registration, you must arrive at Raven Town within 5 hours and meet your contact person! 】
[Requirements: Form a full combat team of five people to eliminate monsters and reduce pollution]
[Current status: 0/10, average strength level 1-2]
[Requirements: Several search supplies and rescue personnel, rescue other townspeople, find or support supplies, and escort to Franklin Manor]
[Current status: 0/100]
It's clear at a glance.
Other believers also knew what kind of help Raven Town needed.
Not long after Gale shared the information.
After another query, the status of the number of people above has changed.
The original 0/10 combat team became 1/10.
The number of responders to the following two items also quickly increased to 6.
In just a few seconds, fast-thinking believers grabbed the spot.
Gale was in Raven Town when the disaster broke out, and after receiving the news, he was the first to upload the local situation.
Thus it became the first town to receive support.
…
"What do we do now?"
Old Baron Franklin was unaware that Gale had completed the call for reinforcements.
He is still worried about the shortage of manpower.
After walking around outside and coming back, he pulled Gale into the study and asked worriedly.
"Now only the three men of our Franklin family can deal with some monsters here."
"There are nearly 500 people in Raven Town, including many elderly people with limited mobility."
"Can we save so many people just by ourselves?"
"Furthermore, this time it's an emergency. It's okay to temporarily feed these dozens of people. The food stored in the manor is enough to last for a while."
"Even if we really rescue everyone else in the town here, the food consumption will be greatly increased. We still have to go out to find some dry food and bring it back! The pressure on manpower will be even greater!"
In order to avoid causing panic among the townspeople.
Old Baron Franklin did not dare to say these words directly in front of the townspeople who took refuge in the manor.
Gale smiled mysteriously:
"Grandpa, who said that only a few of us here can deal with monsters?"
"Tell you a secret."
"If you are in danger, just call the name of the Lord."
"Reinforcements from the Church of Seeking Knowledge..."
The words are not finished yet.
Outside the study window, there was the sound of fierce fighting.
"Shield War! Push it, push it, push it, you accidentally pull in too many monsters! Shield War, hurry up and draw their attention away!"
"Work harder! Kill them quickly, and seize the time to meet Mr. Gale first!"
Gale finished the second half of his sentence.
"...He'll be there soon!"
Served at the fifth update, today’s is a little late. Updates will be posted as usual at 6 o'clock tomorrow.
Thank you for your monthly and recommended support. Thank you very much.
Thanks to Kosmo for the support of 500 starting coins. I wish the boss will get rich every day and never die!
