Chapter 55, Words in the Night

Leaning against the city wall, breathing heavily, the exhaustion on his face was clearly visible.

After all, he is not a real dragon, and it is inevitable that he will be exhausted after such a long battle.

This kind of battle was not easy. Many of the scales on Huo's body were rolled apart during the attack, and even a lot of them fell off.

The broken tips of a large number of wooden spears were left in the gaps between the scales and pierced into the flesh.

One of the broken spears that pierced the chest was even more dangerous.

Those despicable rat attacks have no martial virtue at all. Even though the scales on his body are quite hard, the scales alone make it difficult for the rat man's attacks to be effective.

However, those rat-men who could not withstand their attacks often aimed at the joints and gaps of the scales, and even stabbed them at an angle.

Breathing heavily and leaning on the city wall to recover his strength for a short time, Huo stood up again. He stopped the lizardmen's excited carnival after the victory, and meticulously began to set up defenses.

Wounded warriors were brought into the city for treatment, depending on the severity of their injuries. If the injuries were not serious, they would be taken into the city for treatment.

After being simply bandaged, it was still left on the city wall.

When taking inventory of the injured, some mistakes were made. It turned out that some lizard warriors were not seriously injured, but the tips of their tails were bitten off by ratmen during the battle and were taken away.

These lizard man warriors whose tail tips were bitten off by ratmen were very angry, but it was obvious that the tips of their tails could not come back, and they were able to survive maybe because the tips of their tails were bitten off.

After that, the snake archers and kobold wizards were sent to the guard tower, and the lizard warriors were deployed along the city wall without rest. They started to be on guard, and the braziers on the wall were lit.

The corpses on the city wall were swept away and thrown away, and the piles of siege rats were scattered by the kobold wizard's fireball technique.

After such actions, the city wall soon regained its solemnity, which was only visible to the naked eye. The people on the city wall were lizard warriors, snake archers, or kobold wizards.

They are all quite tired.

As the first unit to reach Jiuchicheng, they experienced an extremely difficult battle after a lot of running around, but after winning a glorious victory, they did not even get a rest.

If the person who asked them to do this was not Huo, it was not Huoyan who was at the forefront.

Then it will definitely arouse a lot of resentment. It can even be said that even if it is Huo, such behavior will bring some complaints to him.

Darkness has fallen completely.

Soldiers with a little resentment were stationed on the city wall, and Huo looked at the darkness in front of him from a distance on the city wall.

It stands to reason that although daytime is a disadvantage for the rat men, that was when they attacked, and the lizard men had just arrived and were not on a stable footing and even the defenses were not perfect.

Now, although night has fallen, the rat men have to face the city defenders who have already completed their defenses.

In such a comparison, the rat people during the daytime have an advantage.

But during the day, the rat men suffered a lot and fled.

Logically speaking, he should not attack so recklessly.

After all, the tall city wall will not be affected by the sky and darkness, but for some reason, Huo feels a little uneasy in his heart.

This uneasiness made him force them to prepare regardless of the soldiers' feelings.

Looking at the deep darkness in front of him, Huo thought of a rat man standing on a high platform acting crazy.

The leader of the rat troops.

In fact, he is right to be uneasy, if he can know some of the internal disputes among the rat people.

This is very straightforward and can be affirmed.

The rat war that ventured all the way could neither accept defeat nor slow down.

But it’s precisely because we don’t know that we need to play the game.

After a brutal siege, everything around the city was swept away, and the disadvantaged defenders relied on the city's strength.

But he lost his awareness of the surrounding environment for a while.

There was no way to see through the deep darkness in front of him with his eyes, and the fire wouldn't know that the rat people who had gone away had returned.

Quietly, deep in the swamp outside the city.

The sneaky figure is coming.

And not from one direction, but from all directions, gradually surrounding the tall city in front of them.

The sky above old Qicheng.

There was nothing but deep darkness, but this darkness was quite normal in the dark night. It seemed to be no different or strange from usual.

But if you look at it from the perspective of a god, the situation in the sky at this time will be very different.

A bright sky curtain has completely covered the sky of old Qicheng for some time.

This is an extremely wasteful canopy, because the entire canopy is condensed by the slowly overflowing power of faith, and its function has only one simple function.

That is to prevent the situation in this place from being watched by the gods.

This is Du Yuan's strategy for dealing with wealthy guys like Li Sheng.

Yes, I know you have a lot of tricks, a lot of magic cards, and a lot of magic tricks.

But I blocked the battlefield and blocked the people in front of you.

Until the dust settles, everyone should not look at it, observe it, or think about doing anything fancy.

And doing this, although it makes Du Yuan look like the second-rate kid who comes to cause trouble, it also consumes a lot of faith.

But it's worth it. After all, if you pay for something like this, you can bring the other party to a level. Du Yuan doesn't have much work to do anyway.

It would be better to simply leave the entire battlefield to the dependents themselves.

For example, at this time, after noticing Li Sheng's arrival not long ago, Du Yuan blocked this guy without hesitation.

And completely covered this area with the canopy of faith.

Li Sheng was so angry at Du Yuan's behavior.

But there is nothing we can do.

"Do you think you can defeat me just by relying on that rat man?"

"Then try it and you will know it!"

At this time, as Du Yuan continued to accept blood sacrifices, his body was officially covered with a dim scarlet blood aura.

Even the divine body projected in the world of the Familia was stained with a hint of scarlet.

This gave Du Yuan a different kind of charm and sense of danger, especially after an eye pattern with complex and regular lines was added to the center of his forehead.

Du Yuan was not shaken by Li Sheng's words.

Now that he is ready to believe in his rat men, he must truly believe in these guys. After all, as their god, Du Yuan is quite aware of how noisy these guys are.
