In the Name of the Queen

"Captain, this is the relic where I found the super weapon."

Tom smiled and pointed at the entrance to the hidden cave leading to the sewer. At the same time, he tightly grasped the large-caliber firearm that had just helped him, as if he was afraid of being taken away.

Just now, the Helenzburg tunnel defenders relied on the intricate sewers and tunnels to once again repel the attack of the Oden Kingdom's death squads.

Among them, two powerful high-level berserkers were killed in the battle.

An unlucky man stepped on a trap and was hacked to death.

Another stronger guy was attacked from both sides by Joseph and Tom, and was hit by a large-caliber firearm dug out from ancient ruins. He died very unjustly.

After carefully observing Tom's unexpected gains, Captain Jay Bacchus decided to explore the ruins again.

It is almost impossible to hold Helenzburg on one's own, unless a miracle occurs.

Miracles are certainly not friendship bonds or extreme anger.

When people are extremely angry, they often find that even if they are angry for a while, they still can't do anything.

Only strong support can change the situation of the war.

Jay Bacchus did not dare to guess how much support would come from the rear.

He received orders to break out, which normally meant no large-scale reinforcements.

He did not break the bad news to the entire army for fear of collapsing morale.

Breakout? He wanted to, but he couldn't.

Helenzburg is now two worlds apart.

The ground belongs to the Kingdom of Oden, and the ground belongs to the Helenzburg garrison.

As a model of urban construction in the Alemannic Territory during the Magic Empire, Helenzburg has a history of at least 2,500 years.

Helenzburg has not been waterlogged due to heavy rains for such a long time, which shows the level of construction of the sewer system.

Relying on sewers and tunnels, and with a strong desire to survive, the Helenzburg defenders held on tenaciously.

Most of the soldiers believed that the Governor and even the Great Queen would come to their rescue.

This is also their courage to persevere.

Jay Bacchus was different from them. He believed that the Queen would not give up on them, but he did not believe in the Governor and the cold-blooded witch.

Rather than knowing where the reinforcements were, he would rather believe that there were weapons wrapped in tarpaulin paper in the underground caves.

Anyway, look for it first.

The situation in the underground cave was unknown. To prevent a violent explosion, he did not dare to light a fire and could only move forward gropingly.

Jay Bucks handed over the command to Joseph and went down with Tom and a few soldiers.

The underground cave is winding and winding, and you can't see your fingers. Fortunately, Helenzburg City Hall has a few magic lamps left behind.

The magic light that was about to run out of magic crystals was dim and could barely illuminate one or two meters in front of it.

Despite carefulness, two soldiers accidentally twisted their feet.

Jay Bucks simply asked other soldiers to carry them back.

This kind of exploration may not be useful if there are many people.

With Tom leading the way, Jay Bacchus climbed a hundred meters and finally came to a slightly spacious platform.

He was a little curious as to where exactly this place was that there was such a flat platform.

Just when he was confused, a "click" sound sounded, and a cold mechanical sound sounded.

It's broken. Could it be that some guard was triggered?

Jay Bucks shouted, "Tom, back off!"

He raised his shield, trying to block it a little, but he knew very well that if this was the remnant of a civilization that made large-caliber firearms, a mere shield wouldn't be able to stop it at all.

Just when he was despairing, a dazzling light came on.

"Identity detection, unknown target, attack!"

Jay Bucks' soul seemed frozen.

Although he couldn't understand which language the mechanical guard spoke, he knew he was dead.

His whole life flashed rapidly through his mind. From the beginning of becoming a member of the Knights with full expectations, to the huge gap between reality and ideals that made him sink, and then to the changes after the Queen succeeded to the throne that rekindled his hope.

Seeing that life is about to take a turn, but to die here, it is really unpredictable.

Although he knew there was no hope, Jay Bacchus still raised his shield to resist.

Even if he dies, he will die like a knight.

A true warrior dares to maintain a fighting stance in the face of an enemy he cannot deal with.

Even if it doesn't make any sense.

The sound of a trigger being pulled sounded, but the expected roar of guns did not follow.

The trigger was pulled again, but there was still no roar.

As his eyes gradually adapted, the dazzling light gradually dimmed. Jay Bacchus was shocked and finally used the dim light to see the guard in front of him clearly.

It is a crawler-type mechanical guard over three meters tall.

The guards each held a weapon of astonishing caliber in each hand and pointed it at Jay Bacchus, but they were unable to fire any ammunition.

Apparently too much time passed and the ammunition packed into the weapon failed.

Tom answered Jay Bucks' question before he could ask it.

"The ammunition for the large-caliber rifle I got was also useless, but I found a box of special bullets in a tarp somewhere."

Jay Bucks didn't speak, just nodded.

His heart was beating wildly.

Just now he was only one step away from the underworld. Even if the gun in the mechanical guard's hand had a useful bullet, he would still be dead.

Fortunately, fate was on his side.

Although the mechanical guard looks terrifying, it has obviously lost power and cannot operate.

Jay Bucks stepped forward boldly.

Looking up at the tall mechanical guard, Jaybacks secretly lamented the development of prehistoric civilization.

No wonder the Magic Empire calls the people of the new era barbarians, civilization has indeed regressed greatly.

The Magic Empire is not known for its mechanical civilization, but it still created a brilliant mechanical civilization.

In contrast, several powerful countries now.

Jebacs took a deep breath and dispelled his negative emotions. He climbed onto the body of the mechanical guard and took off the light on the guard's helmet.

The light of the light was not too bright, but at least it was better than the magic lamp that was about to run out.

He and Tom walked deep and shallow, without speaking.

It is dangerous here, but they must go.

They must find out what is hidden in the sewer.

After walking a few dozen meters, they came to the door of a warehouse.

Looking at the huge rusty iron door and the heavy granite wall embedded in the rock, Jebacs and Tom looked at each other and were a little annoyed.

This feeling of seeing hope replaced by disappointment is really uncomfortable.

If they had never seen the light, they would not hate the darkness so much.

Seeing Tom's frustrated expression, Jebucks smiled and said, "Let's look around. Since you can pick up a super rifle, you may find the second and third ones."

The two searched separately.

After an unknown amount of time, Tom's surprised voice came from the corner.

"Found it, I found it!"

Jebucks ran over quickly and tripped over the raised stone slab without caring.

A large oil paper bag, several large-caliber rifles were sealed with oil.

The style is exactly the same as what Tom found.

Obviously, this is the standard equipment of the previous civilization.

The locked super warehouse is likely to be an armory.

Thinking of this, Tom's joy was diluted by more than half.

"Captain, it's a pity. If we can open the armory, we will definitely win this battle!"

"Young man, don't be depressed. We have found several super weapons. It is definitely impossible to defeat the enemy alone, but it is no problem to defend the tunnel."

Jebucks patted Tom's shoulder, and his voice was a little more excited.

"Now we have a reason to hold on. As long as we hold on long enough, the Governor's reinforcements will arrive sooner or later. The credit for discovering this ruins"

He didn't finish, but Tom understood.

He seemed to see the possibility of more silver stars on the collar badge.

The captain was right, they must hold on, and they will definitely hold on.
