The roar of the beast swept through the lower city like a gust of wind.

The city inevitably fell into chaos. Countless people rushed to the west gate with their families and their families. The not spacious gate was crowded with people fleeing.

Even some soldiers of the city defense army threw their weapons, took off their uniforms, and ran home with their wives and children.

Seeing that more and more people gathered on the road in front of the gate, when the stampede was about to happen, a section of the city wall beside the city gate suddenly burst into flames.

Not long after, the three- or four-meter-high city wall immediately collapsed in several places, followed by a burst of collapses, and these gaps were connected to form a 20- to 30-meter-long opening.

A middle-aged man with red hair jumped to the edge of the collapsed city wall after the dust was blown away by the strong wind, and shouted in a voice that could be heard in half the city: "Don't crowd there, go from here, one by one, everyone. I can walk away!"

The people crowded in front of the city gate all rushed towards the gap in the city wall, and then rushed to the stone arch bridge a few hundred meters to the west.

Charles stood on the top of the wall in the southeast corner, and the wild monsters in the distance stirred up a cloud of dust.

Beside him, Deborah watched nervously in the distance as the squad of city defense soldiers and adventurers who were still in their jobs intercepted the sporadic monsters that attacked and transferred the villagers.

Charles originally wanted Deborah to cross the river first, but Deborah was unwilling to say anything, saying that it is better to follow Charles to be safe than to stay on the other side of the chaotic river by herself.

Helpless, Charles could only bring Deborah to the head of the city wall. Fortunately, there is a battle of positions next, so he will take care of Deborah no problem.

Now their task is to form a line of defense with several teams outside the city wall to prevent the monsters from running from the open space between the city wall and the river to the west gate and the stone arch bridge to attack the evacuated people.

Charles patted the top of the city wall and couldn't help sighing. Even Deborah could blast a hole in the wall, not even the camp built by the murlocs outside the Durian City that cut down the durian trees.

At this time Deborah asked: "Why are there so many monsters coming this way?"

Charles shook his head and replied, "No one knows. All that is certain now is that these beasts are controlled. They have been subjected to rage and bloodlust, and a little psychological hint."

"But no one knows the mastermind and the purpose, and they don't know that the other party is for things like revenge, but it is definitely not to send food for the winter to the people here."

Charles and the others studied those monsters in the valley just now. The general guess is that these monsters were infected by a kind of soul magic.

In the Reimu gift bag in Charles's brain, only two or three hundred words of this kind of magic were mentioned, and it was specially stated that this kind of magic belonged to the category of forbidden magic.

The magical beast infected with this kind of magic is like a soul signal transmitter, infecting the souls of animals with some intelligence nearby, and its spread is like a virus infection.

Along the way, apart from monsters such as slimes, not even mice and snakes escaped.

If this kind of magic is modified and its strength reaches a level that can infect humans, it will be similar to Resident Evil.

Thinking of this, Charles couldn't help shivering. If that was the case, he wouldn't be able to fight.

More and more monsters came out of the forest, but it seemed that they did not intend to attack the city immediately, but were attacking the farms without people everywhere, killing the livestock to fill their stomachs.

Although these beasts are controlled, their bodies are still not out of the category of animals, and they will still be tired and hungry.

As the granary of Qiqiucheng, the livestock here are enough to feed the monsters.

Seeing that he couldn't fight in a short period of time, Charles said to Deborah beside him, "You haven't slept since last night. Do you want to rest first so that you don't run out of energy later."

Deborah shook her head.

Seeing this, Charles sat down next to the wall at the top of the wall and said, "Then I'll sleep first, and you can wake me up if you need it."

Before Deborah could react, Charles fell asleep. Taking time to rest is a basic skill on the battlefield.

Not long after, the middle-aged man who was shouting loudly on the side of the collapsed city wall came over. Deborah wanted to wake Charles, but he stopped him.

Bishop Falcao of the Fire Temple said to Deborah: "Let him sleep, you also have a rest, I am watching here."

Deborah wanted to say something else, and Bishop Falcao took a half-slap-sized biscuit from his pocket and handed it to her. You could still see raisins and sunflower seeds on the big biscuit.

Bishop Falcao said: "Eat and rest."

Deborah, who took the big biscuits, bowed slightly to Bishop Falco and thanked them, then sat down on the edge of the wall like Charles and ate.

The biscuits were very similar to the fisherman's flatbread, a specialty of Deborah's hometown of Florence. She was indeed hungry, so she ate the biscuits in three or two times.

People who are full are prone to sleepiness, and Deborah doesn't even know when she falls asleep.

Deborah didn't know how long she had slept. She was woken up by a scream.

She immediately stood up from the ground and found Charles jumping off the city wall.

A big bird with a height of only three meters and a head that could reach the city wall ran towards them.

Deborah had never seen such a bird before. The bird had long and sturdy legs, and the sharp claws on its feet glowed with a pale blue light. Its neck is the same, with a small head on the long neck. And its wings are so small relative to its body that it doesn't look like it can fly.

Charles met the attacking elephant bird twice his height. Its appearance was very similar to an ostrich, but its thick and powerful legs and sharp claws could kill a wild boar with one kick.

Now they need to catch a live monster to study, this elephant bird delivered to the door by themselves is undoubtedly a good choice.

The elephant bird also thought that Charles was sent to the door by himself, and it gave Charles a flying kick when Charles was not far from him.

Charles looked confused, are you a Kamen Rider or Ultraman, is it bad to play cards according to the bird's routine?

Charles, who was facing the elephant bird for the first time, almost fell, he hurriedly jumped sideways, and then rolled on the ground a few times, avoiding the claw with the wind blade.

Next, Charles didn't give the elephant bird a chance to fight back~lightnovelpub.net~ He jumped up from the ground, jumped on the bird's back, and stunned the bird with the blade of the broadsword like a garlic rice.

Then he chopped off the bird's claws immediately, lest it seize the opportunity to fight back.

Several people rushed over quickly, tied the hapless bird with ropes and dragged it back to study.

Charles jumped back to the wall, and a healing spell fell on him as soon as he landed. Sister Lucia, who was helping them heal them in the valley this morning, gave Charles a heal right away.

"Thank you." Charles smiled at her.

At this moment, Bishop Rossi came over and said, "Everyone in the surrounding villages has been evacuated, and the people in the city are getting too fast. It's just that everyone didn't eat tonight, and they didn't have blankets to cover, so there might be an accident."

Charles didn't say a word. He couldn't solve this matter. It was up to these priests to argue with Duke Beretta, who had been working as a tortoise in the upper city.

At this moment, those monsters began to flow towards the lower city continuously, and there was a passenger boat on the river in the distance heading towards this side.
