The Hero Who Troubles the Heroes

The reaction of the clergymen surprised Charles for a moment, and he immediately realized that this is not the sea of ​​elf trees, and the organizational structure of the army here is different from that of the elf army.

Charles took a roast chicken from Deborah and ate it in this **** place like everyone else.

As he ate, he recalled the description of Duke Beretta in the intelligence: "Advantage: Loyalty; Disadvantage: The only advantage is loyalty."

As the supreme commander guarding the southern gate of the capital, loyalty always comes first.

And such people are mostly timid and stubborn, with the primary goal of not causing trouble, they dare not make any big moves to avoid unnecessary trouble.

In this way, things will be difficult to do today.

Charles was fortunate that he had made other preparations, otherwise it would have been more difficult.

He looked into the valley, where the corpses of demon beasts covered the valley.

At this time, their position was no longer where the previous tax card was. When Deborah brought a group of priests, Charles retreated while killing, and had already retreated to the position close to the mouth of the valley, ready to push the battle line back.

According to his idea, for those who just came to the valley, the corpses of monsters in one place are more convincing than any language.

In addition to the few who helped here, the clergy of other temples also acted.

The bishop of the Temple of Light is responsible for instructing the monks and nuns of several temples to evacuate the villagers in the village and let them take refuge in the city of Onna.

The bishop of the Temple of Flames went to negotiate with Duke Beretta, and everyone agreed that this little but short-tempered brother was the most suitable for dealing with the noble master in such a situation.

The most worrying thing right now is that these monsters don't go down this valley and go over the mountains and into the surroundings of Onna City.

The elves and priests of the Temple of Life have already entered the mountain. Their task is to conduct reconnaissance in the mountain. If there is a monster coming from the mountain, they will release a signal.

That signal is a common alarm signal for adventurers. Five fireballs exploded in the sky in a row, representing the highest level of danger, just like the ones that exploded in the sky now.

Charles frowned and said, "It's hard to do now."

Bishop Rossi of the War Temple also sighed. He came over and patted Charles on the shoulder, comforting: "Don't be discouraged, you have done a good job, let's retreat to the lower city first."

Charles nodded helplessly, the next battle was not something he could solve alone.

He asked: "Can the lower city be held? I heard that its city walls are just for appearance, and there are not many adventurers here."

Charles was desperate for Duke Beretta at this time, and until this time he did not send even one person to come over to find out.

Bishop Rossi smiled bitterly and said, "Do your best, at least until you can support the people to cross the river, as long as you can hold the bridge."

There is a river that is almost 100 meters wide between the upper city and the lower city of Onna City. The river bank is very high and steep. Even monsters are not easy to climb up. It can be said to be a natural defensive position. Just guard the cottage Zhaozhou Bridge on the river.

It's just that people evacuate... Charles sighed, this is more trouble than hunting monsters.

The alarm signal in the sky sounds every ten minutes, on both sides of the valley, and it can be seen that the signal has been moving westward, and the speed is not slow.

When everyone walked out of the valley, they heard a trumpet sound in the distance, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the army on the other side of the city moved, it would be easy.

The river in the middle of the upper and lower cities branched off into a tributary in the south and poured into Lake Pergusa. The main stream directly entered the big river, and to the north, it could reach the vicinity of Qiqiu City. The defenders only needed to stick to Qiqiu City.

The terrain at the mouth of the valley is relatively high, and you can see that many people drag their families and their mouths to Onna City on the roads in the mountains and fields. Some teams even drive pigs and cows.

It's just that Charles found that there were still people working in several farmlands in the distance. He pointed to one of the places and asked Bishop Rossi: "Why haven't the people there retreated yet?"

Bishop Rossi replied: "It's a slave farm there, and we can't command them."

Charles opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a while.

He had very little contact with slave farms over the years, mainly because slave owners generally did not like outsiders to come to their slave farms, so he forgot about it.

The slaves in the farm only listen to the slave owner, the slave owner does not speak, the slaves run or not run is a dead end, and the slave tattoos on their bodies can kill them when they escape from the farm.

Charles could erase the slave stripes from slaves, but it was not feasible, either in terms of time or law, to get the slaves to escape.

"Let's go." A slightly helpless voice remembered beside Charles.

The only one who knew what Charles was thinking was the dwarf Sister Lisa. She patted Charles on the lower back, and the roar of the beast came again from the valley behind them.

Charles and everyone rode back to the lower city together, but when they passed the section where the upper city could be seen, their faces suddenly darkened.

Shangcheng has entered a state of war, and the battle flag has been raised at the city gate, but the gate of the city has been closed, and the soldiers have all reached the city wall, but not a single soldier has left the city.

"What's the situation?!" Charles asked the local man next to him in surprise.

Sister Lucia said helplessly: "The upper city and the lower city have been in conflict for many years, but I didn't expect Duke Beretta..."

Charles was silent, and unless he and Linda were married, he had no way of intervening in Duke Beretta's decision.

Several shadows caught up with the group from the rear, and the elves of the Temple of Life completed their reconnaissance mission in the mountains and withdrew.

A young elf in his early thirties said anxiously: "There are monsters everywhere in the mountains, and these monsters are crazy."

Then Bishop Pendra, who turned a thousand years old in two years, said: "The city walls of the lower city can't stand it, and all must be evacuated across the Hexi."

Although everyone was prepared, the severe form was like a huge stone pressing on everyone's heart.

Bishop Rossi said, "I'll go to the mayor later, but I don't have enough time."

As Bishop of the Temple of War, he has more say in battle.

If Warcraft just walked the valley like just now~www.novelmt.com~ they can block the intersection to buy time. But now those monsters are pushing the front line, and they can't block it at all.

Even if Charles took the wind and arrows, the number was too small. He could hit a single target. Covering a large area would be a drop in the bucket. It could only be used as an assault force depending on the situation.

Fortunately, the enemies this time are only monsters, not human beings. The monsters will not loot property. If they enter the city at most, the stored food such as bacon at home will be eaten. It is also easier for people to evacuate.

Just organizing more than 10,000 men, women and children in the city to cross the river is not an easy task. The bridge over the river is not wide, and there may be a stampede accident. If you can complete the retreat task in the afternoon, you should laugh.

The biggest problem right now is time.

At this time, the bell rang in the distant lower city. The bell was no longer tolling slowly like the hourly chimes, and the rapid sound made people anxious.

The people on the city wall can already see the monsters descending from the mountain to the east.
