The Hero Who Troubles the Heroes
v3 Chapter 644: block the road
Onna City is located in the mountains, and there are large farmlands in the valleys. It is an important gateway and an important granary guarding the south of the city of Qiqiu, the capital of the Bischberg Kingdom.
It is divided into two parts: the upper city and the lower city. The upper city is located on a flattened hilltop and is the military camp and the administrative center; the lower city is located on the flat land on the opposite bank of the river at the foot of the mountain, which is the center of handicrafts and commerce. The villages are located in the mountains. in the farmland.
As a military fortress, the upper city has tall walls and a castle inside, which is heavily guarded. As for the lower city, there is only a city wall that can cope with ordinary monsters, and its specifications are only stronger than that of ordinary villages.
According to the idea of the local controller, Duke Beretta, the local security is guaranteed by the garrison, and there is no need to spend money to build the city wall.
At night, on the mountain road with nine turns and eighteen bends, the racing car was not much faster than those beasts, and it turned over a mountain, and the beasts walked straight and went straight over the mountain.
Charles and the others didn't run for an hour when the roar of the monsters appeared in the distance.
Fortunately, the endurance of the machine is incomparable to the muscles, and the two sides gradually opened up some distance.
When the sky was getting brighter, Charles and the others got into a valley that was not wide and steep on both sides, and came to the tax card on the edge of the Onna City area.
This tax card is stuck in the narrowest part of the valley, no more than ten meters wide, and the door just allows two carriages to pass.
After a long period of unmaintained racing in the mountains, Charles' motorbike had a problem that slowed them down and eventually had to stop here.
The tax card was guarded by five soldiers and a tax officer. When Charles and the others stopped in front of the tax card with the roar of a beast not far away, those people had already run out to find out.
Charles shouted to them: "There is a beast tide! Go and report..."
Before he could finish shouting, those guys who saw the figure of the demon beast a few hundred meters away immediately jumped off the wooden wall as high as one person, and ran without looking back on the horse.
After Charles put away the motorcycle, he took Gennaro and Deborah into the tax card. Here are a few residential houses between the two walls, and the walls are also lined with tree trunks on the ground. .
Fortunately, there are many horses here, and there are still three shivering work horses.
Charles immediately said to Gennaro: "This is not far from the village in the inner valley. You should at least go to Enna City to show your identity to meet the Duke Beretta here, and tell him about the beast tide."
Having said that, Charles paused for a while, and then said, "You ask him to send the Griffon Knight to take you to Seven Hills City, and then meet Antoine II in my name and tell him what happened here, and that I am here."
After Charles finished speaking, he took out a bunch of things and stuffed it into Deborah's hand, and said, "Take this dagger to the Temple of War Church in the city, take this ID card to the Temple of Life Church, and take the writing A letter to the Temple of Light Chapel, take this hammer to the Temple of the Forge, take this flame crystal to the Temple of Flames, tell them I have Charles McGarden here and need their support. These churches are in the lower city. "
He had an intuition in his heart that Duke Beretta might not be reliable.
Charles, who has inquired about the situation around Onna City, is now afraid that these monsters will rush into the valley when Onna City is unprepared. When the time comes, let alone those villages, I am afraid that even the city will not be able to escape the fangs and claws of the monsters. .
All he can do now is to ask Gennaro and Deborah to report, and he himself is here to buy time for the evacuation of the village.
Gennaro asked nervously, "What about you?"
Charles said: "I set fire to stop them, you go quickly."
Seeing this, Gennaro immediately rode his horse and left the tax card with Deborah, who could not ride a horse.
As soon as the two of them left, Charles stopped the sound of claws scratching against the wooden wall.
Not long after, a wolf jumped over the wooden wall and jumped in, and when he landed on the ground, he had already turned into Qianliang.
Charles took a closer look at the wolf head that couldn't rest, and found that its eyes were red and bloodshot.
Soon another monster jumped in. This was a giant ape that was good at climbing.
After Charles chopped it to death, he lifted the giant ape's head and looked at it, and found that its eyes were also bloodshot.
The wooden wall that was just used for appearance was quickly knocked down by a powerful monster. Charles also took out his weapon, and the compressed biscuits in the food reserve that could be used for breakfast. He is busy.
There are two flowers, one on each side.
Gennaro rode out of the small valley with Deborah and saw the city of Onna bathed in the rising sun in the distance.
Deborah, who was sitting in the back, held Gennaro's waist in one hand and a dagger in the other, and stabbed the horse's **** from time to time according to Gennaro's instructions.
The level of this horse is average. In order to make it run as much as possible, Gennaro chose a running method that overdraws its vitality.
At this time Deborah suddenly asked: "Who are you, who can meet the Duke and King directly?"
Gennaro sighed in his heart and said, "I am the son of the Grand Duke of Milan."
Deborah's hand suddenly froze around Gennaro, and then gave a soft "oh".
The horse that was squeezed to its full potential ran for a while, and Gennaro said: "I'll let you down not far from the city gate, be careful when you enter the city, and say that someone at home is sick and needs life. The monks in the temple help, I am a kind person who will take you on the way."
"When you see the elves, tell them all about Charles' instructions, and then ask them to help contact other temples."
Deborah asked suspiciously, "Why do you do this?"
Gennaro said: "It may be that Charles found something or was suspicious of something, so I asked me to go to the king."
"The Duke of Beretta is the younger brother of Antoine II, and Antoine II had his share of the credit when he ascended the throne."
"We have never been able to figure out what the Duke of Beretta did back then. We only know that Antoine II immediately named this younger brother a duke after he ascended the throne, which is rare in the world."
Gennaro was trained as the reserve successor of the Grand Duke of Milan, which has something to do with Charles and his family. At that time, Charles' great-grandfather kidnapped the princesses of other countries, which made those countries and families keep an eye on them, and the successors had to back them up.
The Principality of Milan and the Kingdom of Bischberg are closely related, and Gennaro naturally knows some stories of this country, not to mention that Gennaro and Duke Beretta are distant relatives who have met before.
Charles asked Gennaro to meet Antoine II, which made Gennaro very puzzled. He thought about the possibility that the Duke of Beretta was going to rebel to Charles, but none of them were convincing.
Deborah got off her horse a few hundred meters away from the city gate of the lower city. She ran to the city gate anxiously, and quickly entered the city according to the words taught by Gennaro~lightnovelpub.net ~ Gennaro didn't run very far on his horse, he stopped at the edge of a newly harvested farmland, jumped into the field and rolled on the ground pretending to fall.
When he stood up, his clothes, trousers and hair were covered with dust, and he was a little better than a refugee, and he looked very embarrassed.
The dirty Gennaro came to the gate of the upper city of Enna City not long after, and the unlucky horse finally died of exhaustion under the control of Gennaro, a few dozen meters away from the gate.
Gennaro jumped as the horse fell, only to stumble and fall as he landed.
He walked to the knight guarding the gate, showed the ring of authority that he had never used since he ran away from home, and asked the knight to meet the Duke of Beretta.
The knight deliberately kept his face from laughing. It was rare for a baron to fall off his horse and roll a few times.
And this knight is knowledgeable. He saw where Gennaro was a nobleman, and also knew the relationship between his country and the Principality of Milan, so he had someone bring a horse and take Gennaro towards the castle.
