Chapter 55, Words in the Night
Leaning on the city wall, breathing heavily, the exhaustion on his face was clearly visible.
After all, he is not a real dragon, and he will inevitably be exhausted after such a long battle.
Such a battle was not easy. Many of the scales on Huo's body were rolled apart during the attack, and even a lot of them fell off.
The broken tips of a large number of wooden spears were left in the gaps between the scales and pierced into the flesh.
One of the broken spears that pierced the chest was even more dangerous.
Those despicable rat attacks have no martial virtue at all. Even though the scales on his body are quite hard, the scales alone make it difficult for the rat man's attacks to be effective.
However, those rat-men who could not withstand their attacks often aimed at the joints and gaps of the scales, and even stabbed them at an angle.
Breathing heavily and leaning against the city wall to recover his strength for a short time, Huo stood up again. He stopped the lizardmen's excited carnival after the victory, and started to deploy defenses meticulously.
Injured warriors, depending on the severity of their injuries, are taken into the city for treatment if they are seriously injured, or if they are not seriously injured.
After being simply bandaged, it was still left on the city wall.
While taking inventory of the injuries, some mistakes were made. It turned out that they were some lizardman warriors. Although they were not seriously injured, the tip of their tails was injured by ratmen during the battle. Bite off and take away.
These lizardman warriors whose tail tips were bitten off by ratmen were very angry, but it was obvious that the tips of their tails could not come back, and they were able to survive maybe because the tips of their tails were bitten off. Because it was bitten away.
After that, the snake archers and kobold wizards were sent to the guard tower, and the lizard warriors were deployed along the city wall without rest. They started to be on guard, and the braziers on the city wall were lit.
The corpses on the city wall were swept away and thrown away, and the stacked siege rat slopes were scattered by the kobold wizard's fireball technique.
After such actions, the city wall soon regained its solemnity, which was only visible to the naked eye. The people on the city wall were lizard warriors, snake archers, or kobold wizards.
They are all quite tired.
As the first unit to arrive at Old Qicheng, they experienced an extremely difficult battle after a lot of running around, but after winning a glorious victory, they did not even get a rest.
If the person who asked them to do this was not Huo, it was not Huoyan who was at the forefront.
This will definitely arouse a lot of resentment. It can even be said that even if it is Huo, such behavior will bring some complaints to him.
Darkness has fallen completely.
The soldiers with a little resentment were stationed on the city wall, and Huo looked at the darkness in front of him from a distance on the city wall.
Logically speaking, although daytime is a disadvantage for the rat people, that was when they attacked, and the lizard people had just arrived and were not on a stable footing and even the defenses were not perfect.
Although night is falling now, the rat men have to face the city defenders who have already completed their defenses.
In this comparison, the Rat Man during the day has an advantage.
But during the day, the rat men suffered a lot and fled.
Logically speaking, he should not attack so recklessly.
After all, the tall city wall will not be affected by the sky and the darkness, but for some reason, Huo feels a little uneasy in his heart.
This uneasiness made him forcefully prepare the soldiers regardless of their feelings.
Looking at the deep darkness in front of him, what Huo thought of was the rat-man who was standing on the high platform and acting crazy.
The leader of the rat troops.
Actually, he is right to be uneasy, if he can know some of the internal disputes among the rat people.
This is very straightforward and can be affirmed.
The rat war that ventured all the way could neither accept failure nor slow down. But it’s precisely because we don’t know that we need to play the game.
After a brutal siege, everything around the city was swept away, and the disadvantaged defenders relied on the city's strength.
But he lost his perception of the surrounding environment for a while.
There is no way to penetrate the deep darkness in front of you with your eyes, and the fire will not know that the rat people who have gone away have returned.
In silence, deep in the swamp outside the city.
A sneaky figure is coming.
And not from one direction, but from all directions, gradually surrounding the tall city in front of them.
The sky above old Qicheng.
There is nothing but deep darkness, but this darkness is quite normal in the dark night. It seems to be no different or strange from usual.
But if you look at it from the perspective of a god, the situation in the sky at this time will be very different.
A bright sky curtain has completely covered the sky of Old Qicheng for some time.
This is an extremely wasteful canopy, because the entire canopy is condensed by the slowly overflowing power of faith, and its function only has a simple function.
That is to prevent the situation in this place from being peeked by the gods.
This is Du Yuan's strategy for dealing with a wealthy guy like Li Sheng.
Yes, I know you have a lot of tricks, a lot of magic cards, and a lot of magic tricks.
But I blocked the battlefield and blocked the people in front of you.
Until the dust settles, everyone should not look at it, observe it, or think about doing anything fancy.
Although doing this makes Du Yuan look like the second-rate kid who comes to cause trouble, it also consumes a lot of faith.
But it's worth it. After all, if you pay a little for something like this, you can bring the other party to a level. Du Yuan doesn't have much work to do anyway.
It is better to simply leave the entire battlefield to the dependents themselves.
Just like this, after noticing Li Sheng's arrival not long ago, Du Yuan blocked this guy without hesitation.
And completely covered this area with the canopy of faith.
Li Sheng was so angry at Du Yuan's behavior.
But there is nothing we can do.
"Do you think you can defeat me just by relying on the rat man!"
"Then you will know if you try it!"
At this time, as Du Yuan continued to accept blood sacrifices, his body was officially covered with a dim scarlet blood aura.
Even the divine body projected in the world of the family is stained with a trace of scarlet.
This gave Du Yuan a different kind of charm and sense of danger, especially after an eye pattern with complex and regular lines was added to the center of his forehead.
Du Yuan was not shaken by Li Sheng's words.
Now that he is ready to believe in his rat men, he must truly believe in these guys. After all, as their god, Du Yuan is quite aware of how noisy these guys are.
