A strange world

Chapter 336 Section 189. Old crises and new threats

"Good day, McKeon Mouse."

The condescending Annan imitates Maria's contemptuous condescension.

All the human soldiers on the city wall were replaced, and the rebel rats dressed up as elite rats and patrolled the city wall.

"Stuen... stuff, why are you here?"

"I was just going to ask you..."

There is no evidence that the Stuenrats and McKeonrats are working together. The Sturnrats have spent hundreds of years hollowing out Breeze City, and the rampaging McKeonrats only serve to undermine the plot. But there is no evidence that they are not cooperating, so Annan said ambiguously:

"This is the territory of the Holy Clan, you shouldn't come here."

The scarlet eyes of the gray-robed rat priest stared at Annan on the city wall: "Open the city gate."

"This is the spider web of conspiracy of the Holy Clan... You guys, McKenzie Mouse, don't even think about getting involved!"

The gray-robed rat priest answered Annan in rat-man style: The elite rat behind him kicked Broken Fang down, and the rusty iron sword penetrated its shiny fur.

"You want to start a holy war?! This is a mission assigned by the saints. You are seeking your own death!"

Annan's angry shout echoed outside the city wall: "I will tell the Rat's Nest and let the Champion Ratman punish you!"

The rat tide in the front row became vaguely commotion. Champion rats were a taboo for humans, and they were also taboo for rat people - they may not have killed humans, but they must have massacred rat people.

The treacherous, cunning, suspicious, and gloomy character made the rat priest not kill Broken Tooth, nor did he fully believe what Annan said, but dragged Broken Tooth back to the rat tide.

Broken Tooth is a genuine Stun ratman, so the chance of his secret being exposed is low, but because of the ratman's style, he will suffer some hardships... All Annan can do is to prevent Xingyue Bay from revealing his secret.

Come down from the wall. Annan asked the earth elemental to stare at the ground, and then opened the portal in Breeze City: "Move away the scavenger rat statues! Then ask them if they have any evil items."

After a while, Annan opened the portal again and sent the sculpture to the city wall.

Then the McCann ratmen surrounding Star Moon Bay saw armored ratmen passing by on the city wall from time to time, fel warlocks holding staffs, and the occasional roar of wild rats - Scavenger Imprisonment Looking at a wild rat, Annan asked Francois to provoke it, then record the movement and play it in Breeze City. The Skaven outside would think that the Rang Rat's wrath was directed at them.

There is also a statue of the Skaven Champion in the Scavenger Headquarters, but Annan didn't move it - that would be too fake. If the rat priest wanted to talk to it, he would not be able to find a mage who was proficient in master-level transfiguration.

Speaking of talking... Annan ran to the guardian mages who were resting in Xingyue Bay.

"You want me to unleash Common Language proficiency on the Skaven?"

The Guardian Master rejected it as a blasphemy against magic.

Annan put it another way: "Then you think of proficiency in Common Language as a death curse, and unleash it viciously on the Rat Man!"

After dozens of minutes, the illiterate ratmen on the city wall turned into smart ratmen who were proficient in Common Language. This time they looked more like Stun rats.

The rat tide outside Xingyue Bay is gathering more and more, and the atmosphere in Xingyue Bay is quiet and peaceful.

As night fell, the few mages from Xingyue Bay gathered in the square, as if they were performing an evil ritual, their faces illuminated by fluorescent green magic.

After allocating the brilliance of magic, they input the magic power, and the fluorescent green light of evil energy briefly bloomed over Xingyue Bay. It can only pass by in a flash, any more and the secret will be revealed.

The broken tooth was still in the hands of the rat-man McKeon. In order not to hinder it, Annan did everything he could. Theoretically he could also summon Maria - her gemstone necklace was with Evelyn.

But if she were in the nest city... her sudden disappearance would easily attract the attention of Stun Rat... and it would bring real disaster to Xingyue Bay.

In addition, Breeze City's support is quietly coming to Xingyue Bay through the portal.

Mages and knights were stationed beneath walls that amazed them. When the Ratmen come in waves, they will appear on the city wall immediately.

But the black tide of rats in the distance neither left nor launched a charge.

Unprecedented tranquility lies dormant in the dark winter night...

…

The fluorescent green evil eye stands on the altar in the dark underground hall.

A fel warlock appeared in front of the rat priest with a staff: "Those corpses...their deaths are different...I think...it's a trick of Stun's stuff..."

The magic musket is a new thing, and the Rat Man racks his brains and doesn't know how to drive the copper piece into the slave rat's head...

As for the hundreds of thousands killed on the road... it doesn't care. Rat slaves are both the vanguard and food rations, and their functions are the same as those of low-level demons among demons.

As long as the carcass is there, the McKeon rats will have no trouble with the Stuen rats. But if the body disappears, the McKeon rats will use the stuen rats in Star Moon Bay as rations.

Because they obey the supreme council of thirteen clans——

The treacherous, cunning, suspicious, and gloomy character of the rat priest did not fully believe it. It communicated with the nest of the Stun clan with evil energy. The expanded evil eyes stretched the shadow of the rat priest into a long and narrow shape, and a female The phantom of the rat man emerged in the surging evil energy:

"Praise the Horned Rat!"

After praying, the rat priest whispered darkly: "We are almost there...but the Stun clan lair in a city disguised as a human thing blocked us. Star Moon Bay...their lord is named Annan Reeves." "

"...You savage rats don't deserve to know. I can only tell you that this is part of the plan." After silence, the phantom replied. "Is it there? Let me talk to them."

The rat priest called Broken Fang, and the shadow observed it: "Are you from Annan?"

"Do you know our lord?"

"...Go back and tell Annan that Maria told him to leave the North quickly."

…

Late at night, Annan was awakened from his sleep wearing a mage's robe.

"Is there any movement in the rat tide?"

What the sleepy Annan said was confirmed: "The rat tide has receded!"

A few minutes later, Annan appeared on the city wall. There were no torches or light sources outside. In the darkness, only rustling sounds could be heard getting farther and farther away, leaving behind broken teeth and a mess.

"Is everything going well?" Annan asked it.

Broken Tooth said hesitantly: "They contacted the Stuen Clan, but there were ratmen from the Stuen Clan who helped us..."

"What's it called?" Annan thought of Maria.

"It said its name was Maria, and asked me to tell you to leave the north quickly."

"I see……"

There seems to be a new threat ahead, but in any case, the rat tide crisis is over for the time being.

"One piece of good news, one piece of bad news."

Annan couldn't wait to share the good news with Olmedo: "I disguised myself as a Stun rat and deceived the second wave of rat people."

"Where's the bad news?"

"They're heading your way."
