Chapter 1174 96. Charming Rat Man
It’s not impossible, Liberty City’s finances can afford him to do this, not to mention Annan’s strange dependence on the city wall.
The 30-meter-high wall of Xingyue Bay still stands there, injuring the cervical vertebrae of countless ratmen and ratmen who thought there was treasure on it.
It's like the more, taller, and thicker the city walls are, the safer Liberty City will be - but Liberty City is a floating city.
Annan believes that floating Liberty City is the last resort. Why run away if you can protect the entire territory?
The two deputy city lords also followed him. After all, concrete is very suitable for building city walls. It is strong, durable and low-cost. The only question is... Who are we trying to defend against by building fortifications with such great fanfare, ratmen and demons?
But how to make the empire believe it?
Speaking of which, Annan’s words to scare surrounding forces are not necessarily false. By April, the muddy fields formed by the melting ice and snow in the north were almost dry, and the rainy season was still four to five months away. If the Skaven and the Demon want to do something, this period is the best time.
Throw the pot to the Rat Man?
"What are Maria and Gale busy with recently?" Annan asked.
"Maria pretended to be with the rat people and leaked the false news we deliberately released. Gale pretended to be with us and secretly contacted the Stun rat people."
"I'll ask Gale . ”
There is no need to continue this banquet.
Annan casually glanced out the window and saw Cathy chasing several boys.
……
Cathy, Ivana and the little blue dragon Grasty were walking down the street after morning school.
As she walked, she urged Ivana, who was slow at the back: "Walk faster, there are a lot of delicious food at the banquet!"
"The food will not be more delicious just because it arrived a few minutes earlier. , and won’t disappear just because she’s a few minutes late.” Ivana, who was still in the teething stage, spoke in a leaky manner, but she looked like a little adult.
“But I can eat it a few minutes earlier!”
Cathy was about to pull Ivana away when she suddenly saw Lily running past, and then three people holding branches boy chasing behind.
"Stop!"
Cathy dropped her backpack and rushed out, Grasti followed closely, and finally Ivana picked up her backpack.
Grasty half-glided and knocked one down, Cathy grabbed one, Ivana did nothing, but the remaining boy stood there in silence, daring not to move.
"Meow~" Lily stopped.
Cathy grabbed the branch, grabbed the boy and beat him.
"Let you bully Lily! Let you bully Lily! Let you bully Lily!"
After teaching all three boys a lesson, Cathy put her hands on her hips and kicked each one: "Let me see you bullying Lily again. , just peel off your skin and use it as boots!”
“Wow——”
None of the boys have ever been beaten, but the worst scolding they have ever received is just about you! The ugly monster said that no one wanted him, and immediately ran away crying when he suddenly came into contact with the "adult domain".
Cathy turned back, picked up Lily and inspected her carefully. After finding no injuries, she held her in her arms with confidence and walked into the city lord's mansion.
...
“Hey, Gale.”
Knocking on the door of the female ratman who locked herself in the room, Annan greeted with a smile.
“What’s the matter?”
Gail asked warily. She blocked the door, blocking the scene behind the door.
"Abby said you haven't come out for several days, I'm worried..."
"Just this?"
Gail is unmoved, she has betrayed too many saints Everyone who is informed by the elders will be sentenced to death...
"Not really, I want to ask you, are the Stuen Rats planning to move south?" "I don't know."
< br>
"It doesn't matter. If you don't tell me, Maria will tell me." Annan made a gesture to leave.
"Maria? She doesn't dare, and she doesn't know." Gale said mockingly. How could a brown rat compare to her.
“What about the Rat King?”
“Rat King?” Gale was stunned.
“Well, I met the Rat King of Thrane Clan in the Elven Court.” Annan deliberately told Gale: “We have become good friends.”
Gale hesitated, subconsciously feeling that Annan was lying, but he was credible.
The Thrane clan and the Sturn clan are different. They are more secular, or... closer to race.
The rat people are just like the humans, elves, and beasts.
Gail vaguely remembers that the Holy Clan once had twelve clans, and the Thrane clan was added later. As for why they are not affected by the Rat God, Gale has no idea. That seems to be the deeper secret of the Holy Clan.
Gail showed a sense of crisis, which was keenly captured by Annan: "Can I go in?"
"No!"
"Your appearance makes me very disappointed... Do you still remember when we first met?" Annan said regretfully.
"Why don't you remember? You and that brown mouse caught me and made me betray the Holy Clan!"
It seems that Huairou doesn't work...
"That's true too You tried to seduce me first." Annan's tone became low: "Gail, you don't want the elders to know about betraying the family secrets..."
"You..."
Gail straightened his tail, and Annan took advantage of the gap and forced his way into the bedroom.
Staring at the back of Annan's neck, Gale had countless ideas flashing through his mind, but finally gave them up.
She knew that Annan carried a bunch of amulets with him, and if she really did this, she would be the unlucky one.
Because the Council of Elders feels that Annan can be incited to rebel...
Annan looked around and couldn't find anything suspicious on the outside.
Gail also seemed to know what Annan was looking for, and sneered: "I didn't do anything, I just don't want to be in contact with you."
Annan was noncommittal and turned around with rat-like characteristics. The exotic and beautiful Gale said: "Gale, we are friends, and the Stuen Rat Man and I are not enemies. You don't have to be wary of me. I just want to help you."
"Help Us?"
"The Skaven took over the North, and the Skaven are praising them, but without your Stun clan, how could they be so successful in the North? You have been working hard for a long time, but the fruits of victory were snatched away by the McCann Ratmen... Are you really willing to do so? ”
Gale felt that these words seemed familiar, but they really touched the point that Stun the Rat Man cared about most.
They almost followed humans to this cold land. They planned here for hundreds of years, only to be burned down and laughed at for the futility of what they did...
Gail was almost in Annan. She gave in to the whisper, and she recovered from the severe pain of biting the tip of her tongue: "No matter what you say, I don't want to betray the Saints anymore."
Annan's whisper is like a hand, Brushing Gale's cheek: "You are wrong, Gale. I don't intend to let you betray the Stern clan, but after all, it is our common enemy, isn't it?"
"The enemy... People?”
"That's right, the enemy. The North should belong to you, but it was usurped by the McKeon clan, and they laughed at you for being useless... aren't you the enemy?"
