through the dark road

Chapter 554 No news
The sound of drums on the bloody hill has become inaudible, but all kinds of monsters are still extremely sensitive to this signal, and become more and more manic, scrambling to think about the human clearing team on the hill and the direction of Harrogas rush away.

The job-changers were really taken aback at first, thinking that all the monsters around them had fallen into a frenzied state, but they soon discovered that the strength of these monsters had not improved significantly, and they just seemed crazier when they attacked.

After a scuffle, they stabilized their position, but they were still a little bit surprised, thinking that this situation might be a harbinger of monster swarms attacking.

According to the previous rule, the next monster swarm attack will not appear until at least the third or fourth day, but now only one night has passed.

If the interval between cluster attacks is really shortened to half a day, then they will not have the slightest chance to breathe.

Not only them, but the craftsmen in the fortress are also working at almost full capacity, and many materials are facing shortages. Harrogas seems to be unshakable, but in fact he is already struggling.

Everyone hoped to understand the reason for the appearance of the purgatory mirror image as soon as possible, but the change in front of them was tantamount to worsening the situation, which made them feel a sense of suffocation.

On the east wall, the Styx banshees turned around and charged towards the guards at the top of the city like moths flying into a flame.

The anger of the crowd was finally released, and they spared no effort to display their long-range attack methods, and a blood rain suddenly fell outside the fortress.

The banshee, who was strangled before approaching, slammed into the outer wall with inertia, splashing out patches of mottled blood. Drenched in the blood of the devil, the fortress standing on the cliff looked even more iron-blooded.

After dozens of rounds of attacks, the noisy screaming of the banshee completely subsided, and Mo Bei had already put away the hell drums, and together with others, started throwing some banshee corpses outside the city go.

It was really because the bodies of these banshees were too indescribable, and none of the male animals present wanted to be aroused by the idea of ​​taking advantage of the heat. Moreover, at this time, people kept calling for assembly, obviously there was a new mobilization.

The abnormality caused by the sound of the drums made the people who didn't know what was going on tense up, and immediately prepared to rush to the hills to fight.

Mo Bei didn't have time to explain all this, so he just explained the situation to Chakrias and others, and then took his teammates to the stone hall where Kane was.

Along the way, from time to time, they saw people carrying wooden boxes, wooden barrels or bulging sacks on their shoulders, coming from the direction of the hall, and sending various supplies to various places in the fortress.

When I saw Kane, the only remaining Horadrim was earnestly taking notes, and played the role of the old warehouse manager to assist Mara in distributing supplies.

There was a bald and strong man standing beside the two old men. Judging from the burly and muscular figure and the totem decorations on his arms, he was undoubtedly a local aborigine.

Not only that, but in such cold weather, he only wore a coarse cloth vest, which looked a bit like a big man in the gym, but he also wore a leather bib around his waist, which is usually a craftsman Talented people will dress up.

Seeing the arrival of several people from Mo Bei, Kane took the initiative to introduce them, showing that they were the ones who sent emergency supplies to Harrogas.

The bald strong man was also very enthusiastic, and said to several people:

"Thank you for the materials you sent. To be honest, if I don't get enough materials, I can only put down the hammer in my hand, take the weapon and go outside the city with the others to fight the monsters. Oh yes, My name is Rasuke, I am a blacksmith, if you need anything, you can come to me!"

When Mo Bei heard this, he immediately wanted to take out the Horadric staff and ask the barbarian in front of him to help him make a hole, but he was polite first:
"Those are the fruits of other people's labor, and we just transport them on behalf of them."

"Oh, if Ernstinger waits for a while longer, it won't be in such a troublesome situation... But it's also because our side is in a hurry, there is no way, the chaotic battlefield outside, The consumption of equipment is far beyond the usual experience, not to mention they have to fight again and again... Although monsters will also drop, but it is far from reaching the level of fighting to support the battle."

Rasuke was obviously troubled by the shortage of materials, and habitually vomited bitterness.

"How is the airship going now? Is there any new news from last night?" Mo Bei hurriedly asked when he heard that Rasuke just mentioned the airship.

Kane could hear the urgency in his tone, and he already had a premonition, but he still shook his head and said:

"There is no new news, what happened?"

Mo Bei hurriedly told what happened on the top of the city, feeling bad in his heart.

The group of banshees flew much faster than the ravens, but it took nearly a day to fly all the way from the crash site to Harrogath.

But Ernstinger didn't respond for such a long time. Does it mean that all the accompanying personnel have died under the claws of monsters?
Kane thought of this on the spot, and his face sank.

That was hundreds of lives, and now he regrets not persuading Ernstinger to recall the accompanying personnel when he first confirmed the difficulty of recovering the supplies and the wreckage of the airship.

But at that time, everyone felt that supplies were equivalent to human life for Harrogas. Even if he made this suggestion, the other party would not give up easily.

At this moment, they heard someone calling the patriarch outside the hall, so they looked out together and saw Qualkek in heavy armor walking in with the other two.

Walking beside Qualkek was a young woman, tall and handsome, who seemed to have the blood of the northern highlanders.

There is also a tall and thin old man, with a somewhat stooped figure and a skeletal appearance.When Mo Bei saw him, he unconsciously felt disgusted.

Because this man looked very old, but his eyes flickered from time to time, reminding him of the two old bishops in Sadenko Cathedral, Isidor and Tobias.

Rasuke raised his right hand and beat lightly on his chest twice, saluted, and shouted:

"Chief Qualkek!"

It seemed that in the eyes of the barbarian blacksmith, only Qualkek deserved his respect.

The tall and thin old man suddenly showed displeasure, but he didn't attack.He just gathered his hands in his sleeves and looked at Mo Bei and the others.

"Anya, why did you come here together?" Mara asked.

"Teacher." The young woman bowed slightly to Mara, and then said:

"Some guards said that a strange war drum appeared in the fortress, which can cause monsters to attack wildly, and the carrier should be coming here. We want to find out about this."

"It's you, right? Where did you get that kind of war drum?" The tall and thin old man stared at Mo Bei and the others, asking in a somewhat sinister tone.

Anya frowned upon hearing this, while Qualkek raised his hand in dissatisfaction, and said directly:
"Elder Nihlasek, they are the defenders of Harrogath."

Mo Bei was already a little annoyed by the old man, but when he heard the name, his heart was even more murderous.

This old thief is indeed the oldest of the previous generation of patriarchs, and the only one who did not participate in the self-sacrifice, Nielasek!
