A strange world

Chapter 827 Chapter 58. They are coming

On August 7, Hell Mountain was still busy preparing for war.

Before the Rat Man appeared, nearly a third of the time given by the Orr Empire had passed.

At noon, the portal opened on time.

Femi and the others' attention fell on the cold girl who walked out, while Belial's attention was on the portal.

"Where is the Fourth Legion?" the noble-looking and cold-looking girl asked.

The luxurious sapphire skirt made Femi vaguely guess who she was, and he motioned to the goblins who were building fortifications: "They are over there."

As soon as Ilimoyas walked away, Belial came over and asked nonchalantly: "Does the rat man know?"

"what do you know?"

"This kind of portal can be opened across thousands of miles."

"They don't know." Even Jerry hadn't seen it.

"Then why are you standing there? Why don't you dig a basement quickly so that the ratmen don't see the portal!"

"Why?"

"You don't think that the rat people are all idiots and will just come over like a tidal wave, do you?"

Fermi has been in contact with the Skaven for several years, and of course he would not say "isn't it?", but due to their strength, the closest they were to the Skaven's advanced arms was when the Skaven besieged the Black Watch Legion.

"Do you know how the Skaven attacked the city?"

Belial talked about what he saw before and after the fall of Brunmando Castle...or his personal experience.

Brunmando Castle, also known as the Shield that held the Skaven - before it was breached.

It gathered and took in professionals and ordinary people from hundreds of miles around. It was once the real Great Wall of the North in the hearts of the rescued people. Mage tower, mercenary hall, scavenger...such a fortress will not be much weaker than the coalition forces that eliminated the two empires.

But it still fell on the third day after the arrival of the Skaven.

"On the morning of the first day, the magic barrier of Brunmando Castle was in danger under the evil energy of the rat priest. By evening, the magic barrier was broken, and the terrifying evil energy invaded, and was barely blocked by the mage tower. The second When the sky fell, there was already a sea of ​​mixed rats outside the city wall.”

"Late the next night, the rat men launched a general attack day and night: they used fire magic and teleportation magic to build a rat wall tens of meters high outside the city wall, pouring in like pouring rain. Brunmando Large areas of the fort's streets collapsed, and rat men emerged from the ground..."

Thinking back to this day, Belial still has fear on his face.

"When I escaped, the mage tower was being attacked and flashing magic runes..."

Belial was a big shot, and the person in the Mage Tower was a big shot in his eyes... After escaping, Belial wandered outside Brunmando Castle for a few days, but he didn't see a single mage running out.

His story still had some effect, and the soldiers around him were a little pessimistic... but did not flinch.

"But maybe you guys really have a chance to survive." Belial suddenly changed his tone, "The Ratmen attacked Brunmando Castle because it was located in an important location, with hundreds of thousands of humans and countless people gathered there. of treasure. But we are on a mountain thousands of feet high."

Belial deliberately said optimistic words: "Maybe we are like a reef in the sea, and when the waves encounter us, they consciously bypass it——"

It's not impossible, but the premise is that the rat people hit a wall in Hell Mountain and they have to give up here...

And before that, Femi had to boost the morale that Belial had lost.

As a speed reader who has been a civilian for the past twenty years and only stayed in Liberty City School for a month, Fermi is not good at boosting morale. He prefers simple and crude methods.

For example, he strode to the edge of the camp and kicked down the rolling stones piled in the grooves for the rat men to push down when they climbed up.

The rolling stone roared, sending out large sparks and rolling down Hell Mountain.

"We killed hundreds of thousands of Skaven with a drop of tens of meters. Now, the drop is a kilometer." Fermi shouted: "Let's see if the Skaven can is harder, or the can opener is better. make!"

At this time, a group of goblin engineers ran over and chirped: "Do you know how hard it was for us to get the stones up and round them!"

"That's Lachish's stone, and it was wasted in one day!"

"I want to complain to Mr. Olmedo, you broke our hard work!"

Femi, who looked tough just now, had to apologize to the goblins in embarrassment, which surprised Beryl.

Fortunately, Ilimoyas, who came later, did not complain about Femi and let the goblin continue working.

"Okay! Legion Commander!"

The goblins responded in a chaotic manner, like a group of brainless goblins who only had fun.

"Uh...Princess Ilimoyas, what are your instructions?"

"I'm not a princess."

Femi guessed that this was the unknown love between Master Annan and the Blue Dragon, so he changed his words and said: "Then I will call you the Commander of the Ilimoyas Army."

Ilimoyasi nodded lightly: "Annan told me that Hell Mountain is under your command, what do I need to do?"

Fermi suddenly had some trouble...

He is not an indecisive man. If Losi or someone else comes, he will resolutely carry out Lord Annan's orders. But Ilimoyas is different...

Whether it is her relationship with Annan or the crystal lair next to the City Lord's Mansion, it shows that her identity is extraordinary, even... the City Lord's wife.

"There's nothing you need to do. We are the commander of the legion. The rat men haven't come yet. Just wait here."

As soon as he finished speaking, a white dragon grabbed a rock and landed on the top of the mountain.

It was naturally impossible for Ilimoyas to do such a thing, so she walked away maintaining her pride.

"She is..." Beryl was surprised.

He suddenly saw Ilimoyas's dragon eyes just now.

"Lord Annan's... good friend."

"I mean, she's a dragon?"

"Yeah." Fermi was used to it.

Belial had many surprises, such as drinking lemonade with the soldiers.

"I believe you are no longer an abandoned legion." Belial said in a weird tone, "You actually have sugar water to drink...that 'Lord Annan' of yours is really a——"

In Fermi's suddenly sharp gaze, Beryl changed to a more neutral word: "Special guy."

…

Elf ranger Ariel lay idle on the rocks on the mountainside.

Here there is no obstruction from the morning mountain fog, and you can see the undulating mountains in the distance more clearly.

She thought this scene was beautiful when she first saw it, but upon closer inspection she found it ugly... There was not a single tree in the entire mountain range, only the weeds and shrubs that grew after the rat men were annihilated.

When he looked away, Ariel suddenly saw an unknown wild flower standing in the cracks of the rocks not far ahead.

Didn't see it yesterday.

Ariel reached out his hand in surprise, wanting to touch the tender petals of the wild flowers that grew overnight——

The wind blowing over the hills made the wild flowers sway gently. Ariel suddenly smelled a disgusting smell in the wind and raised his eyes.

A few black waves slapped and filled the air between the distant mountains.
