Chapter 371 Despair
Why did the enemy storm only one wall?It is to prevent the city from escaping from the secret passage with all its strength after falling into desperation.Why didn't the enemy rush into the defense line after capturing the city wall?It is to allow residents and soldiers to enter the castle willingly, instead of fighting to the death.Why did the Manticores attack as if they were perfunctory under the premise of extremely lacking anti-air means?Just to make everyone feel oppressed and quickly enter the castle.All of the enemy's goals are based on a strong sense of oppression, not despair.

The werewolves were the vanguard, just to let the swamp monsters climb the wall quickly, coupled with the pressure brought by the war mammoth outside the city gate, the commander had to make the idea of ​​abandoning the first city wall, because they knew that the secret passage was Within the range of the first city wall, that was the only place where one could rush out.After taking down the city wall, the attacking troops became ordinary looters again, and it was precisely because of this that Kirov and Jira were able to lead the soldiers into the fortress calmly.The War Mammoth and the Predator Champion attacked the Furious Knights just to speed up the progress of clearing the outer city and to collect some interest. Even Mutu before the war was there to make Petlev take it lightly. Ke, I'm afraid that Petlev did not give orders so hastily. Of course, the most important thing is the confidence that Holden gave him, but he didn't know that all of this was planned.

All these weird things together point to a thing that must be done in the first battle of the Chaos Legion invasion in history, sacrifice!
After Petlev returned from the empire, he began to search for all the information about the Chaos army. Although the detailed content is difficult to find, some information can also be obtained from various legends and very few books, among which sacrifices and Chaos Hell Cannon are the most mentioned.So when the cannonballs that were burning with raging fire appeared in the sky, Petlev understood that today, everyone in the entire Slughov Fortress will hardly be spared.

"My lord!! My lord!!" Gila shook Petlev vigorously, and finally temporarily pulled him out of his fear.

"Quick! Get out of the city! Get out of the city! We can't stay in the fortress." Petlev said loudly after waking up, and then immediately stood up and called the soldiers to run down the city wall.Hundreds of magic shells bombarded the walls and castle of the fortress non-stop, and the raging fire burned wherever it fell. No matter it was metal or stone, everything could be ignited. The smell of burning had already permeated the entire fortress, and they were burned alive. , was crushed to death by rubble, and the number of people who were suffocated to death by being blocked in the room was unknown. No one came to rescue them, because there was nowhere to escape in this dense artillery. Only then did Petlev understand that in the empire , overheard the miscellaneous precious mithril in the Great Wall. At that time, he had ridiculed the extravagance of the upper echelons of the empire, and now he realized how ridiculous his ignorance was.

"Kirov! Kirov! Open the city gate! We're going to rush out!!" Jira rushed down the city wall and called out to Kirov, but no one responded to him except for the shouts and explosions all over the sky.

"Ignore him for now. Open the city gate and quickly organize a defense. Let the knights lead the residents to evacuate towards the south city gate! After leaving the city, flee towards the empire!" Petrov then followed, stating the general goal before continuing. Gather soldiers and residents.After hearing the lord's voice, the panicked people began to rush towards the city gate as if they were grabbing a life-saving straw. If they were to be blown to death or burned to death, it would be better to open the door and fight with the enemy. But until Petrev made a big circle When we returned to the city wall, the city gate was still closed, and everyone was piled here to rely on the city wall to avoid the artillery attack. But even so, there were still several huge stones standing quietly around, with blood and dew seeping from the ground. The twitching bodies outside stung Petlev's nerves.

"Jira!!! What are you doing!! Open the city gate quickly!!" Petlev pushed the crowd away angrily, and the first thing he heard was the sound of "jingle bells and palm nuts". "What the hell are you doing!!"

"My lord. We tried our best. But this city gate can't be opened!!!" Gila stood on the periphery of the heavy armored knight, turned her head and said with tears in her eyes.

Only then did Petlev look up, and at the first sight he saw the distorted familiar face above the city gate. Who else could this be Kirov, besides him, there were dozens of soldiers on the entire city gate. , if their heads were not hanging on the city wall, they would not be able to see where their bodies were at all, because the entire city wall was sealed by a thick layer of metal, and these metals were the armor on their bodies and the gates that blocked the city gate before. Materials, now they are all integrated with the city gate, even though the soldiers smashed hard with tools, the city gate remained motionless.

Metal Magic!Chaos Mage! !Petlev felt dizzy for a while, and was immediately supported by the people around him.Metal magic is a very learned magic. In the entire continent, only Belshazer of the Empire, a legendary powerhouse who suddenly appeared, has completely mastered metal magic. Although he opened the mage tower, he has not heard of it until now Who will come back from learning (of course, that's because Petlev doesn't know), because metal magic is the specialty of chaos mages, only a very small number of humans can step into that metal world, and only a very small number of humans can learn it. Until one or two, metal magic has always been extremely powerful, but it has never become the mainstream. They are usually just auxiliary skills for powerful alchemists.

"I can't wait to die here! I still have children, I still have parents! No! I can't die!!" Finally, someone in the crowd had a nervous breakdown. There is no sound, there is a person, there is a second person, compared to the fire inside the city wall covering the sun, and the explosions are constantly happening, it is as peaceful as heaven outside the wall.

What if you can't die if you jump down?If you can't die, find a place to hide for a while, what if you survive?Countless people who held this glimmer of hope began to lose their minds and become crazy.

"Stop them! Soldiers! Stop them!!" By the time Lev reacted, it was too late, and even many soldiers joined the crowd. No one wanted to die, everyone wanted to live, but this originally What should be the strongest and safest place is like a slaughterhouse, even if there is only one percent hope, no one will give up.

"My lord!! What should we do?!" Jira collapsed when he saw that Kirov was fixed on the city gate. This world-destroying enemy, what can a little lord Petlev do? Even if the city gates are wide open and everyone can act according to the plan, how many people can escape? The words of the city may be
Thinking of this, Petlev cleared his head, yes, if he evacuated from the beginning, even if there were some losses, the whole city would not be blocked here, Holden!has a problem!If he hadn't suddenly become so talkative and promised that support would arrive the next day, he would never have led his soldiers to stand firm in a city that had run out of food!
Defeat is not terrible, and death is not important. Even the prince of the empire who is now attracting worldwide attention was saved by the previous Bretonnian monarch. But betrayal is absolutely!absolute!Unforgivable things! !

　I have come back from the countryside, and this time I really understand what it means to be destitute, and I also know that some places are poor because they have no choice. Only by working hard can you get rich, if you are poor and lazy, you will really be hopeless!Take a break and resume normal updates on Monday.
