Re, Gu Aotian Slaughtered Me
v17 Chapter 5: Loyal and loving Gazef
At night, in the west of the Kaz Plain, the independent city of Ye Lantel—
This city, which may be attacked by wild undead at any time, has become a huge city surrounded by triple walls after a long period of development, and the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
However, the city is not at all peaceful now.
Taking nightfall as a signal, a large number of skeletons, zombies and other low-level undead and low-level demons began to flock to the city overwhelmingly.
There were still thousands of meters away, and the magic cannon installed on the parapet and defense tower roared.
The shells landed in the center of the terrifying army, exploding clusters of thick yellow-green fog—this is a highly corrosive and poisonous acid fog, which can be produced in large quantities by combining second-level magic with magic science and technology.
Many skeletons and zombies dissolved immediately after bathing in it, and the surface of the demons also made a "sizzling" sound of intense chemical reactions.
Although it wouldn't kill them immediately, dissolving an important part of the body's movement could disrupt the coordination of the undead's actions, and they would fall and trip the tireless onrushers in groups, forming a **** and growing stampede.
Many undead were killed just like that.
Low-level demons are different from the undead in that they know pain, and many of them immediately rolled on the ground and struggled.
More acid mist then served them.
In fact, the best way to deal with the undead is fire, and it is easier to make incendiary weapons, and the popularity of fire magic is relatively high, but the fire resistance of demons is quite good.
After a period of anti-Japanese war, people came to the conclusion that the comprehensive effect of using acid mist is the best.
Yes, the defensive battle has been going on for several days.
The undead and demons will launch an attack every time night falls and enter their strongest time period, and the number reaches thousands each time. Even if thousands of enemies are defeated and defeated, their numbers will return to As it turned out, God knows where and what price they spent to replenish their troops like this.
Arranged in the war room of the administrative government, Gazef Stronov stared at the battle map of the city defense, frowning.
"What is the enemy's purpose... It is obviously an organized operation, but they have been using such meaningless tactics. Could it be that they want to exhaust us? Damn, how can they be destroyed by this method."
Gazef Stronov, dark hair means that he may have southern blood, a strong body that cannot be concealed even by armor, and the "Medal Medal" that is still on his body despite the complete treatment system all reflect What kind of road has he walked.
He is a commoner from the countryside in the nearby area. After he showed his talent in martial arts and began to develop in this area, he excelled in martial arts at a young age. , became the warrior captain in charge of public security in a large area centered on E-Rantel.
Received such favorable treatment from a relative background, he naturally wants to reciprocate and protect the people with all his strength.
"Is the investigation team responsible for investigating the source of the undead and demons in contact with the liaison officer?" He asked the deputy chief who was assisting him.
The deputy chief left for a while, and when he came back, he reported: "The investigation team seems to have disappeared, maybe they have all been wiped out. The liaison officer in charge of coordinating this investigation with other countries replied that the Bajas Empire and the Silian Church have not yet come out." Result, but promised as soon as possible."
"Leave them alone."
At this time, a soldier knocked on the door.
"Come in."
"Yes!" The soldier opened the door and strode in to report, "Master Warrior, all the villages in the territory that can take refuge have been evacuated."
"Really, that's great... Then, how much is the loss?" Gazef asked.
"...Six villages were completely destroyed, and the people inside were either eaten by demons or turned into undead... Really, it's too tragic." The last sentence of the soldier was completely driven by emotion, and he spoke like vomiting blood.
"Aren't there any survivors in those six villages?"
"Most of them have a few survivors, but judging from the behavior of the enemy, except for the villagers of Karn Village who are close to the top forest where the legendary twin witches are entrenched, the other villages have no conditions for voluntary escape at all. We suspect that …Those people may be traps, or even well-disguised undead or demons in human skin." The warrior said in a depressed tone.
"What?! What if there are real survivors! Don't save the surviving people!" The warrior commander's eyes sharpened.
Needless to say, the possible endings of the people left in the ruined village, taking refuge in the Top Forest may indeed be a temporary refuge, but it is not a long-term solution, because the wild undead and most demons are definitely the enemies of the living, so forest The demonic beasts and demihumans inhabiting the forest will give priority to attacking the undead and demons, but including the legendary twin witches, they may not necessarily be human companions, at least carnivorous beasts and demonic beasts will not easily let humans go. Most of them are easy to enter The presence.
The deputy chief on the side spoke: "Captain Warrior, they made the right choice. It is our responsibility to protect the people, but now we don't have the time and extra troops to save a small number of people. Even adventurers have to participate. Defensively, without knowing the source and number of the enemy, we must preserve our combat power as much as possible until we confirm the arrival of reinforcements."
"Well, you're right." Gazef nodded slightly, and said, "Then, your command ability is no less than mine, right?"
"Warrior Captain? Do you want to... no, it's too dangerous to go out of the city now!"
"Deputy Chief, you are also a person who came from the countryside, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com, right? That should be understandable. When the village was attacked, the people who were supposed to protect the village did not show up."
"But... we must not be without you, Warrior Commander, at least... let me go. There are as many people who can replace me."
"Don't say any more. I will lead the team myself." Gazef reached out to stop the deputy chief, and said, "There are still plenty of magic props and shells, and it's not yet time to engage in close combat with undead and demons. Because of this, I I just want to go in person at this time, because I am stronger and have a higher survival rate. After I come back, I may have time to rest and recover my strength. Wait for the moment when I have to stand in front of the city gate, right? But I will talk to you at any time. Keep the necessary contacts here, and report to me if there is a situation that cannot be directly decided by you."
"Then... At least seek the assistance of hired adventurers, they are better at fighting outsiders than us."
"Ah, let's do this."
"Yes! This subordinate will arrange it as soon as possible."
Knowing that dissuading him was hopeless, the deputy commander took the order to arrange a team suitable for following Gazef.
