Chapter 207, Temple Guard
He fixed his gaze on the arrow that had sunk into the rat-man lord's chest. After a lot of effort, he finally pulled out the arrow and played with it excitedly in his hands.
Seeing the red grass swaying beside the body of the Rat Man Lord, he pulled it up casually, stuffed it into his mouth, and happily continued his search.
Everything that survives on this scarlet is trying to adapt to the scarlet itself. If it does not adapt, it will disappear. Whether it is the grassland itself or the creatures that are forced to survive on this grassland, they are all in this way.
Except for those bad guys who are filled with scarlet.
………….
Restricted by the special environment and conditions of this vast grassland, the grassland cities built by the rat people have some common characteristics.
Low city walls surround the huge city, and most of the city's areas and structures are exposed on the surface of the grassland.
It’s not that we don’t want to build cities underground, it’s just that the soft soil cannot support the existence of overly complex underground structures.
It's not that this problem can't be solved, it's just that it's quite expensive. The red blood mushrooms spent a lot of money to buy piles of rocks, but it always felt like something was wrong.
Simply building the city on the ground greatly saves the expenditure on blood mushrooms, but also brings about a problem.
Such cities are fragile and unstable.
So how to deal with enemy attacks?
A good question, but it is not up to the managers of this rat city to think about.
Because he is dead.
Amid the commotion, the temple guards in the temple had to organize their forces to participate in the defense.
All the ratmen in the city were included in the mobilization procession, but they were facing a huge enemy force outside the city that was not easy to mess with at first sight, and the only thing they could rely on was the low city wall and only a few hundred people. The temple guard.
Panic naturally set in, and the grumpy rat-man lord sent most of the power in the city and himself out.
But this city must not let go, at least the temple guards must not give up this city.
The temple of the god stands in the center of the city.
Trying to gather strength while running.
But the harsh echo caused by the gathering storm had already appeared, accompanied by the sound of the large cavalry running wildly.
The gathering wind pillar knocked a hole in the low city wall, the wall collapsed, and a group of centaur knights broke into the city.
All the rat men blocking the way were thrown away, and their target was very clear, locking on the temple in the center of the city.
The piercing bells echoed throughout the city, and with the piercing roar, the temple guards stopped in front of the temple of the great god while running wildly.
They will never allow, never allow the temple of the great god to be defiled in any way, never allow it.
The group of guards running wildly on the ground collided head-on with the running centaur knight amid ferocious roars, like wild beasts, and also completed the feat.
There were only a hundred temple guards, these temple guards running wildly on the ground. They forcibly stopped the vanguard of the enemy's intrusion into the city, and a group of centaur knights, numbering a thousand people, rushed towards them.
It's not that they didn't pay the price, half of the temple guards died on the spot, and the remaining half launched a desperate attack on the group of centaur knights.
The other rat people in the city gradually came to their senses. In the harsh ringing of the bells, pairs of eyes kept falling on the centaur knights, the remaining temple guards, and the temple halls. back and forth.
The Skaven Priest and the Great Claw Priest were the first to respond to the battle.
Climbing up to the twisted and haphazardly built shacks, amidst the sharp neighing, various magical spells were swayed out by the rat priests like splashing water.
At least one-third of the ratmen in the city began to surge. It was not because these guys were brave and could muster up the courage so quickly, but because the Big Claw Priest and the slave rats under the Big Claw Priest had fully occupied this place. one-third of the city.
The big-clawed priests with red eyes are more terrifying than ever. They are the most devout believers. They are cowardly and weak, but they will not allow the temple of the great god to be defiled by heresy.
The surging rat tide combined with the stubborn and crazy temple guards caught the Centaur vanguard by surprise.
But it's just out of reach. If the rat lords of this city lead the rat farmers to defend the city, this will definitely be a difficult siege.
But the violent rat lord died outside the city, on the grassland.
Without the rat men calling out to the gods and engaging in fierce and cruel battles, the rat priests fell down due to backlash after forcibly casting one magical spell after another. The big claw priests with the support of slave rats did not change much. Things happened, and more centaur knights entered the city.
The temple of the gods is still so solemn, and the complex and exquisite patterns are carved into almost every corner of this sacred and solemn palace by the temple guards, although they do not understand what these patterns mean.
Blood, death, and killing were carried out in front of the temple. This was the most legitimate battle that the rat people had ever fought.
The last temple guard fell unwillingly during the siege, his red eyes almost protruding from his sockets, ferocious and terrifying, but they didn't change anything.
Above the sky.
Perhaps because they noticed this interesting scene, some gods among the grassland gods finally began to show their figures, and the four demigods who were the leaders showed their figures in unison.
The reverberation brought about by the instigation of divine power reached its peak the moment these four demigods appeared.
His malicious gaze fell on Du Yuan, and in an instant, the atmosphere on the field became stagnant.
Obviously, these four grassland demigods wanted to see if Du Yuan could sit back and watch his temple being destroyed, waiting for the possible anger and response.
If there was any disharmony, Du Yuan would receive a thunderous strike from these four demigods.
Malicious eyes roamed Du Yuan's body wantonly.
Waiting for the opportunity that may arise.
Du Yuan did not deliberately avoid the scene that happened. He cast his gaze and saw everything that happened in the edge city on the Four Seasons Ranch.
A somewhat surprised whisper came from the other side.
On the vast grassland, in this city located on the edge of Four Seasons Ranch, the battle did not end, and the rustling sounds did not stop. When the last temple guard fell, more and more ratmen appeared from the city. , more and more rat men appeared from every corner of the city, came to the solemn temple, and gathered in front of the powerful centaur knight in uneasiness.
