173 Meteor
Lesso City is one of the main subsidiary strongholds of the Iron Armored Fortress, and there are dozens of subsidiary strongholds near the city of Lesso.

These defense systems composed of strongholds constitute the defense circle.

Now, a big hole has been made in this defense system, and the heavy punch from the dark world has penetrated a part of the hard shell of the Trorian human being, and is about to fall on its red and tender soft flesh.

The inner line of defense is the thin layer of skin on the soft meat.

And the lighthouse is just a little bit of horniness on the skin.

The fringe stronghold, which had no sense of existence, suddenly received unprecedented attention.

A large number of instructions from the old city of Baira and the Ironclad Fortress theater require them to ensure that the guiding lights are always on, and try their best to rescue the scattered soldiers.

"Soldiers."

shouted the captain of the guard.

"It's finally the time when we are needed. Are you willing to live a mediocre life like this, or are you willing to burn your soul like a shooting star and shine for even a second?"

The soldiers shouted in unison: "Burn! Burn! Burn!"

"very good."

shouted the captain of the guard.

"Now, take out all the embers and burn our lamps to the limit."

Under his command, the warriors quickly brought out a large number of ashes.

From time to time, fire flashes across these pure black ashes, this is the power of the fire separated from the guardian fire.

Burning these ashes, it is possible to re-fire the field on a small scale.

The brazier on the lighthouse is the Horcrux that carries the fire. The special reflector can project the fire light to a long distance, guiding the soldiers lost in the boundless darkness and dispersing monsters.

This is the role of the lighthouse, which cannot be replaced by the astrolabe.

soon.

In the brazier on the lighthouse, the flames burned fiercely, and the powerful light spread, dispelling the nearby black mist.

The lighthouse isolated on the top of the mountain is like a star shining in the long night, illuminating the soldiers on their way home.

Afterwards, the guards began to operate the reflector, and a huge white light pierced through the darkness like a god's spear, and it was projected dozens of miles away.

As the three mirrors start to work one after another, the three white beams of light start to rotate along the predetermined angle, orientation and frequency, representing three safe ways to go home.

Because it is very close to the real dark world, the middle area of ​​the defense circle is very dangerous, and the terrain near the megalithic lighthouse is even more complicated, with hills, swamps, lowlands, rotting quagmire, and many hidden "dangerous places".

After careful consideration, Wangcheng did not spend a lot of manpower to clean it up. Instead, it opened up these three safe paths and set up a lighthouse as a guide.

Protected by the old city of Baira in front and the city of Laisuo on the side, there has never been a major incident here.

But the city of Laisuo was destroyed, and the megalithic lighthouse became the front line.

Rhodes was nervous and excited, and a little unbelievable. Didn't the chief dean lead his conjuration guards to support it?How did it break in the blink of an eye?
Theodore is also a very legendary powerhouse, the holder of the first "Conjuration Talent", the daimyo, he is like a thunderbolt.

Although the whistle given to him by the chief dean was a little unreliable, it also helped him a lot many times. How could I be so stretched?
But it's useless to think about it. He doesn't know what's going on in Laisuo City. The only thing he can do now is to try his best to rescue the fleeing people. It is said that there are more than [-] people in Laisuo City, and most of them are ordinary people. logistics or production staff.

From the map, the Boulder Lighthouse is one of the three main evacuation directions in Leso City, and many survivors should be received.

At the same time, you will definitely meet many powerful monsters.

This is his chance.

It was different from when it was at Jianguan. It was at the end of the defense circle, and the monsters that reached Jianguan had been filtered through several layers. There were not many level-level monsters, and all of them were unlevel.

And here, at the backbone of the defense circle, what they encountered were powerful monsters from the depths of darkness.

According to Teacher Liliwei, he is very likely to meet a special monster with [source] here.

Rhodes has made up his mind to try to kill them no matter how dangerous they are.

Soon, the lighthouse met the first wave of refugees.

The moment they saw the light, they ran towards the lighthouse.

A white light fell straight down, shining on them, and several black ghost figures were evaporated in an instant.

The refugees ran faster, and even dropped the lanterns they were carrying.

The operator carefully moves the mirror.

At such a distance, a tremor could deflect the mirror by hundreds of yards.

When they ran within [-] yards of the lighthouse, the captain decisively ordered the soldiers to go out and pick them up.

The "[-] yard agreement" is Trorian's standard tactical rule. In a state of war, unless there are special circumstances, the maximum distance supported by small and medium-sized fixed strongholds is [-] yards.

This is the experience and lessons summed up by countless blood and tears.

The refugees obviously knew this very well, they ran desperately just to get within three thousand miles of the lighthouse.

When the soldiers sent them back, the group of people had already collapsed from exhaustion, none of them could stand up, and they were all carried into the lighthouse.

There are a total of 31 of them, seven men and 24 women. They are the logistics staff of the city of Lai Suo. Almost all of them are injured, and a few of them are seriously infected. There are a lot of ulcers on their faces and chests, and black flesh is on their bodies. Spreading quickly, the presence of the fire caused even more pain, and they rolled and wailed inside the lighthouse.

The captain said in a deep voice, "Send them into the fire."

A man knelt on the ground and cried, "Captain, please, please save them!"

The captain shook his head: "The infection is very deep, and it is hopeless."

"But, but my wife, my daughter, has been working in Leisuo City for 12 years. They just want to see the Royal City, the dazzling upper city, and even dream..."

"Feel sorry."

The captain winked, and the warrior dragged them to the top of the tower, and put them into the blazing brazier one by one.

The flames quickly engulfed their bodies, burning them to ashes.

The captain said softly: "May the fire protect your souls, forget the pain and sorrow, and rest in peace forever in the heaven of fire."

The man didn't speak, but just silently wiped away his tears.

But when the captain turned around, he only heard a few exclamations from the soldiers around him.

When he looked back, the man had already jumped into the brazier, and the flames instantly enveloped him.

But he smiled.

"……Sorry, I am late."

A fighter tried to pull him out, but was stopped by the captain.

"He has touched the source of fire, and his soul will go to the world of fire, and become a force of fire to illuminate us."

It's a sad thing, but it's irreversible.

The three lives disappeared in the blink of an eye without leaving any traces.

For some reason, Rhodes felt that the light of the fire seemed to be brighter.

Is it an illusion?

Rhodes thought.

Or does the human soul also have the effect of phlogiston and firewood?

He didn't bother with this problem. The embers of fire are like stars without soul fuel. The power will be lost quickly. The stronger it is, the faster it will be lost. In order to keep the lighthouse in the brightest state, the captain keeps adding phlogiston to it.

Only in this way can the light of the lighthouse shine so far.

They want to save the most people when the lights are brightest.

Afterwards, from the mouths of the survivors, Rhodes and the others knew that the city of Laiso was destroyed by a giant black monster.

Its body was larger than the entire city, hidden in the black mist, only partly illuminated by the fire, its body was covered with scales, and it held a huge sword made of twisted flesh.

One-fifth of the city was destroyed with one blow of the giant sword, and the guardian fire located in the fire protection sacrificial field in the middle of the city was extinguished.

Black dead beasts swarmed in from outside the city. A cyan giant shining with thunder and fire flew into the air to fight with the black giant. Dozens of cyan giants and a large number of warriors blocked the gap and fought desperately with the monster. Space to evacuate.

But there are too many monsters, and the evacuees still suffer heavy losses.

They were lucky to come here alive.

"Captain." A refugee said, "We'd better evacuate quickly, we can't hold this place."

The captain shook his head: "We can't go, you should start as soon as possible after resting for a while, I will equip you with lanterns and astrolabes, and you will be safe if you arrive at the Sword Fortress behind according to the predetermined route."

After resettling this group of refugees, they soon met the second, third, and fourth groups of refugees.

The number of people in the lighthouse is increasing rapidly. Fortunately, just like its name, the megalithic lighthouse has a very large space inside. When it was first built, it was built with a standard fortress-style fortification, which can accommodate up to several thousand people.

Figures of monsters also appeared near the lighthouse, and the captain immediately dispatched soldiers to destroy them.

Now is a safer time, and eliminating threats as much as possible is the best way.

Rhodes is the most active among them. He will be included in every hunting operation. His super high spiritual vision and efficient killing methods also play a great role. The soldiers like to be with him.

When the hands of the clock cross the eve.

The number of refugees increased sharply, and many teams appeared in the area tens of miles around the lighthouse.

Many teams did not approach the lighthouse, but ran towards the Sharp Sword Fortress along three routes.

The lighthouse tried its best to point out the direction for them and prevent them from straying into the "dangerous places" nearby.

A larger black monster also appeared in sight, they were about the size of a house, their heads spread out like flesh-colored petals, and there was a round hole full of sharp teeth in the middle.

When attacking, the flesh flap will wrap the person, stuff it into the round hole and swallow it.

After studying hard for a period of time, Rhodes has mastered a lot of professional knowledge. He quickly judged that they are high-level monsters. Monsters of this level are the most threatening on the battlefield, not because they are the most powerful, but because they The largest number, and can cause effective damage to high-level combatants.

This should be the black dead beast that besieged Laisuo City.

Although abiding by the "[-] yard agreement", Rhodes tried his best to attract the monster's attention on the edge. His shooting skills have reached a hundred shots within a thousand yards, but the power is a little less.

But the real silver bullets have no lethality to monsters above the level, so it doesn't matter.

Once the monster steps into the range, it will be besieged by the soldiers, and Rhodes will take the opportunity to end it with a "soul crit".

It has to be said that the training of combat skills has greatly improved his use of "Soul Crit". Accurately insert your hand into the monster's opening, and you can also kill the monster with a sliding shovel in a fierce battle.

Cheers continued to ring in my ears. Rhodes' presence greatly improved the efficiency of the soldiers' battles. They were all spark sequences, and generally lit three to four fires, most of which were "sensitivity improvement", "balance mastery", "strength enhancement" "For such an ordinary fire, the combat methods are almost all physical combat.

Few people use the special feature, so they can only kill monsters one by one, which is not efficient.

Rhode's fighting method of killing one at a time has both a sense of physical skill and a sense of explosiveness, which is very popular with them.

Many fleeing teams also survived the bad luck of death.

Rhodes has gained a lot of humanity. He is now the true king of humanity, and the remaining humanity will not be used up in ten lifetimes.

In this way, the blazing lighthouse stands in the darkness, pointing out the way for countless refugees.

Most of the refugees set off for the Sword Fortress after a simple repair, and only those who were seriously injured and unable to walk stayed.

Even so, the lighthouse was soon full of wounded.

Dozens of people also returned to the embrace of the fire.

What reassured the captain of the guard was that from their mouths, the soldiers learned that the main force of the rout was going to the northwest, and not many came from the side of the lighthouse.

However, there are a lot of people in Laisuo City, even if only a small part escaped, the number is still very considerable.

When the hands of the clock pass night.

The lighthouse found a remnant soldier from Raiso.

Eleven miles away, there were about 30 people in a tactical brigade, most of them were scarred, and the few who were not injured were also fighting with the monsters behind.

The monster was covered with long black hair, and its sharp claws dragged to the ground, moving very swiftly.

The three lights of the lighthouse were all concentrated, and the monster began to smoke, but it didn't ignite the fire, but became more mad, and several fighters died one after another.

They ran faster, but obviously couldn't keep up and run into the range of the lighthouse.

The captain immediately issued an order: "The situation is special, immediately go to the rescue."

Ten fighters rushed towards them quickly, one of them was much faster than them, but within a quarter of an hour they had already passed the remnant soldiers and crashed into the group of monsters.

"Be careful!" one of the big guys shouted, "This is a different species!"

Rhodes ignored him, raised his right hand, killed one with one stroke, avoided a claw sideways, and killed another with his backhand.

The monster seemed enraged and charged at him.

But Rhodes moved vigorously and lightly, stepping forward and backward, turning around, dozens of monsters were killed by him.

【Cursed Wolf Soul】X11
Rhodes laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth. For such a seriously injured monster, please have another stack.

The big man was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth: "You, are you a high-level knight or a high-level warrior? No, no, you are too young, my son is older than you... Are you a special student? A strong-marked student from the hidden branch, Is it right?"

Good guess.

But Rhodes couldn't agree, Sauron said that his strong logo had been hidden.

"I'm just an ordinary student, hurry up and go to the lighthouse."

"No." The big man rejected his suggestion, "We can't stay here, I suggest that if you don't get support, you should also quickly abandon the lighthouse and evacuate."

Rhodes shook his head: "The order we got is to stay here, guide the direction, and do our best to rescue the broken soldiers."

The big man took a deep look at him and said, "You can dim the fire a little bit. The city of Laisuo is broken, and the iron-clad fortress and the old city of Baira are too busy to take care of themselves. The real darkness has already eroded over. If the fire is too bright, it will be very unsafe."

Rhodes laughed and said, "If the lighthouse doesn't light up, we won't have anything to light up."

The big guy nodded.

"Well, may we meet again in the sun."

-

When the clock crossed the morning hour again, another order was sent from the Old City of Baira.

"When danger comes, try to keep the lights on. If the situation is unfavorable, please evacuate quickly."

But neither the guard captain nor the soldiers chose to evacuate. Instead, they added a few more embers to make the fire brighter.

"Rod."

The captain said seriously.

"You are our future star, you don't have to take risks with us."

Rhodes smiled and said, "Isn't someone who can't accompany you on an adventure still called a new star?"

The blood rushed to my heart for a while, although they had only known each other for two days, the soldiers all felt that he was an old friend who had known him for a long time.

"Haha." The captain said with a smile: "That's right, let us light the way home together."

"Yes, we are the lighthouse!"

The soldiers manipulated the mirror stage, and the blazing fire light moved with the reflector, illuminating the large gloomy area and guiding the way back for countless teams.

As time went by, more and more monsters spread to the lighthouse area. Many monsters were attracted by the fire and gathered towards the lighthouse on the top of the mountain.

This is a crowd effect, a small number of monsters will be dispersed by the fire, and a large number of monsters will be gathered by the fire.

With the increase of black dead beasts, the monsters brazenly launched an attack on the lighthouse.

The giant stone lighthouse is a standard fortification. Although there is no psionic energy generator, all the building materials are reinforced with special psionic energy, making it extremely difficult to destroy.

The only problem is that monsters sometimes climb to the top of the tower and attack the brazier.

So, all the fighters gathered on the top of the tower to guard against death.

Luo Luo had already pinched the wooden puppet, but he didn't expect everyone to work together, and the battle went very smoothly. Not a single black dead beast could climb up.

The captain laughed and said, "Hahaha, trash, we are the kings of the world."

The soldiers were also in high spirits, and they were more careful to protect the evacuating team with lights.

The lighthouse played a miraculous effect at this time. The extremely bright flames attracted a large number of black dead beasts, and the strong lights dispelled sporadic monsters attacking the retreating team, maximizing the safety of the retreating personnel.

They only need to bypass the lighthouse to reach the Sword Fortress behind.

However, after all, this is only the light of the embers, and a large number of monsters quickly consume its power.

The fire gradually weakened, some monsters left the range of the lighthouse, several fleeing teams were attacked, a combatant was knocked into the air by the monster, and fell into the group of monsters under the lighthouse.

The flesh petals of a black dead beast wrapped him up and swallowed him in. The shrieking screams accompanied by the crackling of flesh and bones resounded through the night sky. .

The screams stopped abruptly, leaving only the creepy chewing sound.

Rhodes frowned. There were a lot of monsters below. The black dead animal had rough skin and thick flesh, and was very blunt. Even with full firepower, he couldn't clear so many monsters.

At this time, he saw many evacuated teams running towards the lighthouse in the distance.

Rhodes glanced at his inventory, there was no embers, and the phlogiston was used up.

What to do, let them retreat?
But where can they retreat?

At this moment, the fire suddenly lit up.

Rhodes turned his head happily and asked, "You still have embers..."

No one spoke, and in the bright flames, two warriors smiled at them, and one of them lip-synced, "Isn't our soul bright?"

After a few seconds, they were reduced to ashes.

The bright and clear flame flickered slightly, as if nothing had happened.

But once again the lighthouse burst into bright light.

More monsters gathered.

The beam of light, like a spear of god, shone on the team of survivors who had just experienced extreme terror, helping them dispel the shadow of death.

The captain smiled and said, "The one who holds the fire is different, it burns brighter."

The soldiers also laughed and said, "That's right."

Rhodes felt the blood rushing to the top of his head, clenched his fists but didn't know what to say: "You..."

The captain said: "Hurry up and learn how to operate the reflector, don't waste our fire."

A soldier said: "I put two peripheral visions below, the entrance has been blocked by me, you don't have to worry."

Another soldier said: "I sprinkled blue bone marrow ash on the surface of the tower, and the black dead beasts can't climb up. The defense of the lighthouse is enough for them to fight for two days."

Rhodes opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't say anything.

In this way, one by one, the warriors walked into the fire and lit the flame with their souls.

The captain was the last to go in.

Before he left, he said: "After the fire light weakens, you have to wait for an opportunity to escape. Don't try to ignite the fire. No one operates the reflector. It's a waste."

"It will become stronger in the future, if you kill a few more monsters, it will be treated as ours."

Rhode's throat rolled, and he uttered a word with difficulty: "Okay."

The captain stepped into the fire, and the flames grew brighter than ever.

Rhodes alone operated three reflectors to see off the evacuees in the distance.

Also for them.
