Chapter 261 Chapter 114 Escape


Chapter 261 114. Escape

“Mirror, you should know that I restored you. So...who is the most handsome man in the world?”

“Liliana ·Lore."

Annan's threats didn't work, okay. Maybe this Liliana is a legendary warlock or something...

"Magic Mirror, Magic Mirror, who is the most beautiful woman in the world?" Annan changed the question, but received no response.

"The repaired magic mirror can only be used once a day," said the Howler.

“How do you know?”

This is not a prejudice, but orcs are indeed insulated from the word magic.

"I was thinking about it."

Wasting a precious opportunity, Annan had to temporarily let the apprentices in the blacksmith shop send the "artifact" to the lord's mansion, and he came to Ulmit's house by himself Lin Di.

There are no secrets in Xingyue Bay. The earl of the Violet Kingdom already knows about the fall of his hometown. The count, who was as strong as a bear, squeezed out a few tears and said that he would go back and rebuild his home, one house at a time.

It shouldn't be an act - because Count Ulmit then summoned his men, announced the news like a tough guy, and kicked a few crying guys.

Then these red-eyed guys can't wait to go back for revenge and rebuild the castle - the guard captain said that they are as tough as the northerners.

"My brother, you have to help me." Urmit asked Annan for help.

“What can I do for you?”

"Food, tools, and that thing called cement."

Annan agreed to sell it to Ulmit at the ally price and returned to the lord's mansion. Before opening the portal on the New Initial, Annan warned Layla: "No quarrels are allowed."

"Huh, boring." Layla ran out of the Lord's Mansion, and Annan saw her running towards the bay.

It doesn’t take much to figure out that Layla wants to catch a big fish to show off.

Open the portal, this time the heavy-duty horse is on the deck, and the distant city of Louis appears in front of your eyes: the rapid sound of bells echoes in the air, the residents with their families fled from the city-state, and there is no ship in the port .

Annan did not see any pirate ships on the sea: "What happened to them?"

"The rat men are coming, and they are fleeing from here."

In two weeks at most, the plague will It will spread, and then the rat army will press the border, and further north is the Kingdom of Ruikan'er.

The Lord of Nicholas Hayes is a smart man and did not play the trick of "coexisting with the city-state". He fled to an isolated island overseas with his wealth and subordinates a few days ago, preparing for the ratmen to pass. Come back again.

Looking at the city-states that continued to be in chaos, Annan thought, those city-states that were countless times more powerful than this city-state did not make waves before the rat tide... I hope the Kingdom of Ruikan'er will not make the same mistake again.

"Those abandoned residents have nowhere to go. We should be able to easily bring them back to Xingyue Bay when we dock at this time."

"Xingyue Bay cannot hold so many people..."

Louis City is a city-state with a population of 20,000 to 30,000 people. Even if more than half of them escape, there will still be at least 10,000 people left - already exceeding the population of Xingyue Bay.

"Okay, let's get to the shore."

Annan changed his mind and said he would help as much as he could. City Lord Nicholas Hayes could care less about the civilians who would never die like weeds, but Annan could not.

"After sending the people back, I need you to go back to the Strait of Obiris."

"Because of that count?" Francois asked.

"Well, Ulmit is preparing to rebuild his home, and the Ratmen there should have left." "Get ready to dock!" Francois shouted to the crew, and exhaled: "When we come back I want to take a good rest.”

“That’s fine now”

Theoretically, the New Initial can allow all crew members to return to Xingyue Bay to rest at night and then return to work on the ship during the day.

"Forget it, let's finish all the tasks and then rest..."

As the New Initial sailed into the port, people who wanted to flee gathered at the port, bringing Chaos and crying. It doesn't matter if they don't calm down, the water elementals on the ship will help them calm down.

“Quiet!”

Francois appeared on the deck, overlooking the crowds at the dock: “I shouldn’t have helped you, but abandoned you like your city lord… …”

Some who were filled with panic sobbed, and some found hope - just like all twists and turns have a "but".

“But I have a kind lord. He cannot accept the misfortune of innocent civilians...Annan Reeves, this name should be known to everyone. Or change it to a more popular name. :Jack.”

There was a whisper on the dock.

"Among you are farmers, sailors, professionals, gangsters, and spies of the city lord..." Francois glanced at a pair of eyes, "But it doesn't matter. Everyone who is willing to join Xingyue People of the Bay, I promise you that you will get a new start: with free houses, stable security and fair laws, and you only have to do one thing: give your loyalty to the lord."

"Second officer, lower the bridge plank."

That morning, the residents of Xingyue Bay discovered that the portal had opened again in the square in front of the Lord's Mansion, and this time more new residents poured in than before. These people still strangely maintained a sense of surprise and enthusiasm, shouting the names of Annan and Jack and the words of loyalty.

"What's going on with them?" Annan, standing in front of the second floor window, couldn't help but be curious.

"It seems that Francois said something to them."

At this time, Francois ran to the increasingly empty Louis City. There was chaos and fire everywhere, like a last hurray.

There were almost no people on the streets. Francois walked on the empty streets, feeling quietly...

He saw a figure also wandering on the street. It was a young man wearing aristocratic clothing, holding a long sword with a hilt inlaid with crystal.

“Aren’t you leaving yet?” Francois took the initiative to talk.

"I'm waiting for the Rat Man!" said the young man.

"What?"

The young man waved his sword and shouted firmly: "My weapon will cut the rat man's neck!"

"Have you seen the Rat Man?" Francois asked curiously.

"Of course! They are ugly and weak, and my sword easily penetrated their throats. Those of you who run away in fear when you hear the rat men are cowards..."

"Then don't you know that rat-men always come in groups?"

"What is the difference between one rat-men and a group of rat-men?" the young man said disdainfully.

Francois told him that what was attacking was an entire clan of ratmen: "If a ratman is as big as an ant, they can easily cover this city-state."

"This is impossible!" The young man, immersed in the imagination of becoming a hero, pointed his sword at Francois: "Coward, get off my stage!"

Francois was quite tolerant and did not even reprimand The young man's rude words were just a pity that he didn't have the chance to see the despair of ignorant people when the rat men attacked.
