Chapter 1012
"Twenty million? How many people would that be!?" Deziel exclaimed.
"Not less than 20 million." Ser Arthur looked at Wights slowly approaching the city wall below, sighed, and said, "According to Queen's estimation, the world population is now only one third before the sun goes out, If Narrow Sea city-states like Pentos fall, then humanity is doomed."
"..." Deziel was dazed and horrified.
Actually, the true death toll is far more than 20 million.
Faceless Men Others broke out to now, more than half a year has passed, Dragon Queen's Hell has collected more than 15 million Souls, all from Essos continent, one tenth of them died of starvation and sickness, and the rest All died in corpses.
Only Yi Ti contributed 10 million dead souls.
In this era, the population of a country can hardly be counted because of the wealthy livestock slaves and remote villages that are difficult to manage. But roughly, they can be divided into "nationals" in the city and its surrounding areas, and "Wildlings" in remote places in the mountains.
Chinese people have the opportunity to receive indulgence from The Seven Septon, but Wildlings has never even heard of Mother.
The total population of Yi Ti is close to 20 million. Among the dead souls of Hell, more than 90% have no indulgence at all. They got into Hell because of one person, Arya.
Arya exercised the power of Stranger, stayed in the world of death twenty-four days a day, and desperately collected the undead who entered the world of death in an almost plundering way.
Many followers of R'hllor, Lion of Night, and Pale Child were also robbed by her. Lion of Night was not in Yi Ti, and their beliefs were severely damaged, but they couldn't snatch Death God Maiden, who had fought in person.
Arya is so active only because each undead represents a little "experience points".
The undead harvested by Arya has 10 million, indicating that Yi Ti has more deaths.
Dany estimates that Yi Ti's death toll exceeds 85% based on the origin, number, and identity of the undead in his hands.
Worse than the Yi Ti people are the horse men, who almost wiped out their entire clan.
Others fulfilled the vision of God-Emperor Lo Bu back then. Thousands of Wights washed the dirt on radishes like clean water, and easily washed the horse men tribes on the grasslands.
Including the 100,000 spotted horse men Knights who went south to Yin, 99% of them died in the tide of Wights, leaving only hundreds of spotted horse men fleeing into Yin.
The horsemen's Jhattar died in battle among the countless living dead that could never be killed. The horsemen's Imperial Preceptor, Horse's Strength Great God, became Mage Wights who could use the Ice ability ......
It can be said that even if there is a next era of human beings, the horse men are finished.
And the horse men were not the only human races to be exterminated.
The city-state of Jade Sea and the central city of Essos have no chance to receive free indulgence at all, but they have also sent hundreds of thousands of new residents to Seven Hells - businessmen input.
In the meantime, countless ethnic groups have permanently disappeared from human civilization.
Dragon Queen's guess of 20 million is just the lowest estimated value. Maybe the real data is 30 million, 40 million, or even 50 million?
......
"For Mother, for the living!" Holy Knight's loud roar resounded on the city wall, and the battle for the defense of the city began.
"Blessed by Warrior, blessed by Mother!"
"OmOmOm" After shouting loudly again, the long sword in Holy Knight's hand was like a water film. Radiant, pure and warm Holy Light.
As the Dragon Queen Song of Light gets closer to the Great Perfection, Mother's Holy Knight's control over Holy Light becomes more flexible.
I don't know since when, Holy Light covered weapons have become an important assessment standard for Level 1 Holy Knight.
"Kill!"
"Kill————"
Blessed Holy Light's great sword easily cut Wights who climbed the wooden ladder into two Cut, at the fracture of the mutilated corpse, there is still a fire star.
Dragon Queen's wooden ladder tactic at Winterfell has proven to be the safest tactic in urban defense.
Well, not the most efficient, but the safest and most controllable.
Deziel stands by Most Devout Haggon, assisting Devout in guarding a wooden ladder.
Lord Devout is nearly sixty years old, still wearing chainmail, holding a Spiked Mace that emits Holy Light, and shouting "Heavenly Dragon of Great Might" every time he smashes a Wights head.
Deziel had a lesson, and after the Dragonglass lance poked into Wights' eye socket, he yelled, "Heavenly Dragon of Great Might!"
Although he wasn't even a Cleric, although he still was. I don't understand what kind of diving technique Heavenly Dragon of Great Might represents, but I just couldn't help it and wanted to shout.
I don't know if it's an illusion. In addition to the imposing manner of the slogan, after shouting, his strength seems to be stronger, and his body is more tireless?
"Heavenly Dragon of Great Might!" on the city wall, all the Church Forces began to shout, followed by the city guards and militiamen.
For a time, in the East City Gate, where the corpse tide is the most ferocious, human beings are united and imposing in a high manner.
But Pentos has more than one East City Gate...
“dang dang dang ”
Wights siege battle has only passed a quarter of an hour , There were fierce gongs from the north city and west city directions, and the soldiers screamed in horror.
“City's north No. 6 city wall is lost!”
“Xicheng District No. 3 city wall is lost!”
Pentos has few defenders, just because Braavos It is not allowed to have too strong defensive power, but the city of Pentos itself is not small, so the long city wall is divided into many areas, each section of the city wall is marked with numbers, and then a Church is arranged, with priests and generals leading ordinary soldiers stationed.
Well, unlimited liability, that section of the city wall is broken, and people are worth their lives.
For example, Church of The Seven is responsible for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th sections of the east city wall.
"The sixth city's north belongs to the God of the Land and Sea, how could it fall?" Most Devout Haggon turned his head suddenly and looked at the corner of the north city wall and the east city wall in disbelief. In the messy, thick cold fog, the torches are being extinguished one by one.
"Cleric Nemir," he called to Cleric, an old ironclad next to him, "the Divine Religion of the Land and Sea from the Shivering Sea, right?"
"Yeah, they are backed by Spiritual God, they shouldn't fall down so quickly." Nemir understood the doubts in Most Devout's heart, but he also wondered oneself.
The city Guardian God must be stationed around the city. Today, Others attacked the city, and Pentos faced a life-and-death crisis. In theory, God of the Land and Sea had to personally board the city wall and fight for the city.
So, the north city wall should be the safest area.
Pentos faces the sea in the south, the wharf and business district in the south, and the aristocratic district in the north, where many Royal Family and Merchant Prince live.
"Your Excellency Most Devout, the No. 3 city wall in the West City has also fallen, which is the defense area of the Red God Church." Deziel's face was pale, "The situation is not right, why did the two most powerful city walls fall first?"
"What nonsense?" Ser Arthur scolded: "We are the strongest."
Haggon smashed another Wights' head with a hammer, and said solemnly: "Who is the strongest? It doesn't make sense, but Deziel's concerns are very reasonable."
"Be careful!" Before he finished speaking, he suddenly complexion greatly changed, his pupils flickered golden light, and shouted: "There is a high-energy magic power reaction ahead, there is The strong demon is hidden in the Wights group!"
"Be careful, there is a Demon God who wants to sneak attack us!" Most Devout Haggon had a clear comprehension in his heart.
"Demon God? How can there be a Demon God?" Nemir's expression was twisted, and he said in a shrill voice: "Wildfire, throw Wildfire immediately!"
Deziel and other beggars are not sure why , but deftly tossed one after another melon-sized Wildfire bottle.
"bang bang bang!" The wooden ladder burned, the body of Wights under the wooden ladder burned, and the green and dark red flames built a moat of smoke and fire outside the city.
But the next moment, the red flames of the corpse and the wooden ladder are gradually extinguished, and the Wildfire is also like a candle in the wind, swaying and dimmed.
The torches and braziers on the city wall went out in rows, from near to far, and even the private houses behind the city wall went dark, and then there were panic screams from the residents.
A Demon God has opened the Ice Domain, and the Fire Element is gradually being rejected.
The cold fog surged towards the east city wall like a tsunami. When the exposed skin around Warrior's eye sockets touched the ice fog, there was a needle-like pain. After a while, a white layer hung on his eyelids frost.
"jié jié jié..." The ice fog was dark, and the five fingers could not be reached, but with the laughter of the frozen Soul, a pair of blue pupils the size of copper bells rose.
"As expected of The Seven Septon, it's much stronger than the Church's Most Devout, and it was discovered by you before it got close to the city wall.
However, I'm very curious. , at such a distance, what investigative diving technique did you use?"
"The Seven might be infinite, how could you betray the world as a demon who can understand." Most Devout Haggon scowled.
In the past half a year, countless big cities have clearly taken precautions, but they are still falling into the corpse tide at a speed that is incomprehensible to the world. Time and time again, gradually, some secrets are no longer hidden.
For example, after transcendent becomes Wights, it becomes Ice Mage.
For example, there are Others Half God in the Wights army. They were all Spiritual Gods of this world, but they accepted the power of Cold God and transformed oneself into the God of Ice.
Of course, everyone who has seen the God of Ice has become a living dead. This news is only circulated in the high-level Churches, and even Dragon Queen is not 100% confirmed.
Today was the first time Haggon and the others met Spiritual God Others.
"Demon traitor..." Spiritual God Others sneered again and again, the cold air was like a wave, pouring down on the city wall, and the Wildfire finally went out.
"crack crack..." As long as the person on the stone city wall and the city wall touches the cold mist, a thin layer of light blue frost will immediately solidify on the surface of the body.
Deziel's teeth chattered, and the heat and vitality in his body were like happy water in a small Coke glass, sucked hard and hard by the big greasy mouth with the straw.
In the blink of an eye, the bottom of the cup made a dry sound of "dry dries".
“Heavenly Dragon of Great Might, Holy MotherGodPalm”
Suddenly, the voice of Most Devout Haggon was like thunder side ringing.
"Mother's Divine Palm?" Evil God exclaimed, and it could be seen that the blue pupils in the freezing fog quickly moved away from the city wall.
Ice Evil God retreated, and the freezing fog and cold air also disappeared, Deziel came back to life, looking forward to looking towards Most Devout, I hope he can jump up, fly into the air, and hit a palm that falls from the sky Law.
"Palm" Most Devout Haggon only poses as Mother's Divine Palm, with a long tone in his mouth, always "Palm"
Deziel didn't even know that Most Devout had such a good lung capacity.
" Palm, huhuhu..." Finally, Haggon stopped, took a few breaths, and tangled: "Ai, Mother's Divine Palm...I won't, What a pity!"
"What??!" The surrounding believers and militia almost collapsed.
"I don't know Mother's Divine Palm," said Most Devout Haggon embarrassedly, "normally I've watched too many 'Journey to the East' dramas, always bringing oneself into the role of Seven Hidden High Septon.
Just like the street children shouting slogans, I didn't consciously shout it. After I shouted it, I felt it was wrong, but I immediately changed my tune, and I could only...oh!"
Deziel and the others look contorted.
"Hagenbalddonkey!" In the distance, Evil God roared towards the sky, "Dare to tease this god, I will peel your skin!"
Cold mist It came at a faster speed than when it retreated.
"Evil, don't think I'm bluffing you," Haggon sat cross-legged with no fear on his face, "Mother be merciful, Pentos can't hold back, please come Your Majesty!"
