Chapter 1234 Chapter 156. Bloody Battle

The thick and impenetrable darkness, the flashes of light across the night sky, and the dull and earth-shaking rumble.

It seems that there is no change from the night before...

Hanji, with blood still on the corner of his mouth, followed Marshal Galkin with a knight's sword slung over his shoulder.

What happened in the deep darkness gradually became clear.

The twinkling points of light in the night sky turned into gorgeous spells, vicious evil energy, and flames burning half the sky. The dull rumble turned into the actual sound of fighting, shouting, screaming, and the sound of "tide".

The tide is the black waves that beat on the other side of the high wall, and the black waves are the endless tide of rats.

The lighting technique hanging high in the sky illuminated the area around the city walls, and also made it impossible for the dark and moving rats outside the city walls to hide.

Countless spells, kerosene, arrows, and rolling stones poured out of the city wall like water.

The place where the spell landed was instantly cleared of a tide of rats, and then filled with rats in the next moment;

The poured kerosene poured over the ratmen's heads, and as the fire arrows ignited them, they instantly turned into flaming rats, burning them and making them sizzle and run around, creating a huge chaos, and then a new wave of rats came;
The rolling rocks carved a bloody path, arrows caused the ratmen to fall in groups, and then more ratmen rushed up.

The battle at Fenris Pass was like the Battle of Hell Mountain magnified hundreds of times, with hundreds of thousands of kingdom soldiers defending the pass and clearing out wave after wave of rats.

But... would the ocean be afraid of a handful of sand?

This kind of attack on the rats has been going on for three days. And this is not even the main force of the rats, not even the elite of the rats.

"Gru, report the battle situation." said Marshal Galkin and the deputy commander of the legion.

The deputy commander, wearing the Kingdom's standard military uniform, flipped through the war report and said, "Grand Marshal, there are currently about 300 million to 500 million ratmen gathered in our north, of which less than 100 million are the vanguards that will charge the pass. The demon ratmen in the intelligence sent by the demons and Liberty City did not appear in the vanguard."

The young Knight Commander opened his mouth in shock. Grand Marshal Galkin had a blank expression on his face: "What does this mean?"

"Our soldiers lack experience in fighting against the ratmen. Our head-on tactics are only half as effective against them."

Marshal Galkin's tone turned cold: "Can we retreat?"

"No... Ratmen are different from demons. If we kill one demon, there will be one less. But if we let in 10 million ratmen today, there will be 40 million in a month, and 160 million in two months."

"Get it? We don't have a choice!"

Grand Marshal Galkin stared at Hanji, his tone colder than the cold wind from the north.

"Throw your mercy aside, we only have two choices. Either die, or die with the ratmen!"

As if in response to Marshal Galkin's roar, a blue magic shield suddenly rose in the night sky above the pass, completely covering the three-kilometer-long steep pass.

The light emanating from the dome-like magic shield illuminated the ugly faces of everyone on the city wall.

The activation of the magic shield only means one possibility: the ratmen have somehow broken into the inside of the pass on a large scale.

The ratmen trapped inside the magic shield looked around in confusion, while the ratmen outside were still charging forward by inertia. The moment they touched the magic shield, they turned into a ball of dust as if they were hit by a disintegration spell.

The ratmen in front stopped one after another, but the ratmen behind who were unaware were still crowding forward, causing the ratmen to evaporate in groups.

This scene did not bring any joy to the soldiers present.

The deputy commander's face turned pale: "The magic shield has been activated. We only have thirty minutes... Marshal, we should retreat."

Many soldiers put down their bows and staffs and looked at Marshal Galkin.

"Retreat? No!"

Grand Marshal Galkin roared: "Behind us is the capital, there is no way to retreat. Either die here, or kill all the ratmen!" "Hanji, do you want to retreat or fight to the death!"

Hanji took his hand away from his aching chest. "In the name of the Holy Light, the honor of the Knights! I will fight the Skaven to the bitter end."

"Good, I guess the rats dug their way in. Find them and clean them up!"

Hanji turned and rushed down the city wall. Grand Marshal Galkin did not move. He looked around at the sad expressions on the soldiers' faces. Suddenly, a huge hammer that perfectly matched his body size appeared in his hand.

"Follow me and attack! Let these ratmen who only rely on numbers see what we have been fighting the demons for a hundred years with!"

Marshal Galkin, hammer in hand, jumped off the thirty-meter-high city wall.

"Lord Galkin!"

The deputy commander was stunned, and so were the soldiers on the city wall.

"It's bad, it's bad..." Gema Diatra was dumbfounded.

There are only a few hundred thousand ratmen in the magic shield... but they are definitely not something that Grand Marshal Galkin can stop.

"Hasn't anyone told you that our Grand Marshal is a legendary warrior?" Next to him, the old patriarch, who finally got his wish and put on armor, looked indifferent.

"legend……?"

Gema Diatra...is the heir of the Diatra family who fought with Annan for Xingyue Bay.

Compared to himself three years ago, Ge Ma has lost a lot of his youthfulness, but as if it was the curse of Xingyue Bay - his height has not changed significantly.

Not only them, but also the two of the Northern Kings, the Lawrence Family and the Diatra Family, followed Marshal Galkin to guard the Fenris Pass.

"Then why have I never seen the Grand Marshal take action?"

"Of course, everyone who saw him take action is dead."

Galkin, unable to hide, slammed down into the rat tide, blowing away several ratmen around him. He then twisted his body with the giant hammer in his hand, instantly clearing out all the ratmen within three meters around him.

The soldiers on the wall reacted and attacked the area around Grand Marshal Galkin to reduce the density of the ratmen. The soldiers could not ignore the damage of the 30-meter-high wall like the Grand Marshal did, so they could only urge the mage to quickly release the rope spell and climb down the wall with the rope.

The ratman priest trapped in the magic shield recognized Grand Marshal Galkin as the Grand Marshal among humans. He let out a shrill scream, and the champion rats guarding him rushed towards him frantically.

Galkin, who had just cleared the surroundings, raised his head and rushed back with his hammer covered with a thick layer of blood plasma.

No ratman can withstand Galkin's hammer. He swings his hammer like the wind. Anyone who is touched by it will die. Anyone who is touched by it will die.

"Human commander...die!"

The first champion mouse jumped high with a short knife in hand.

Galkin raised his head. The war hammer weighing at least a hundred pounds in his hand was like a small wooden hammer, tearing through the air and striking sideways.

puff--

The champion rat turned into a ball of blood mist in mid-air.

Galkin raised his warhammer and smashed it down, turning the champion rat that rushed in front of him into a compacted iron plate only a dozen centimeters thick and mixed with coarse hair.

He was like a dragon commanding a pack of wolves, and with every blow, a champion rat was turned into canned food or minced meat.
