Alien world

Chapter 261 114. Escape
"Mirror, you should know that I restored you. So... who is the most handsome man in the world?"

"Liliana Lowrey."

Annan's threats didn't work, okay.Maybe this Liliana is a legendary warlock or something...

"Mirror, mirror, who is the most beautiful woman in the world?" Annan changed the question, but got no response.

"The repaired magic mirror can only be used once a day," Howler said.

"how do you know?"

This is not prejudice, but orcs do not have the word magic insulated.

"I was thinking about it."

After wasting a precious opportunity, Annan had no choice but to temporarily ask the blacksmith's apprentice to send the "artifact" to the lord's mansion, and he came to Ulmit's forest mansion by himself.

Xingyue Bay has no secrets. The Earl of the Violet Kingdom already knew about the fall of his hometown.The earl, who was as strong as a bear, squeezed out a few tears. He said that he would go back and rebuild his homeland, building one house after another.

It shouldn't be an act - because Earl Ulmit then summoned his subordinates, announced the news with a tough look, and kicked a few crying guys.

And then these red-eyed guys can't wait to go back to revenge and rebuild the castle-the captain of the guard said they are as tough as the people in the north.

"My brother, you have to help me." Ulmit asked Annan for help.

"what can I do for you?"

"Food, tools, and that thing called cement."

Annan agreed to sell it to Ulmit at the price of an ally and return to the lord's mansion.Before opening the portal on the New Initial, Annan warned Laila: "Don't quarrel."

"Hmph, boring." Leila ran out of the lord's mansion, and Annan saw her running towards the bay.

It didn't take a second to think that Laila wanted to catch a big fish to show off.

Open the portal, this time the heavy Wanma is on the deck, and the city of Louis in the distance emerges: the rapid bell echoes in the air, and the residents with their families escape from the city-state, and there is no ship in the port.

Annan didn't see any pirate ships on the sea: "What happened to them?"

"The Ratmen are coming, and they're fleeing here."

In another two weeks at most, the plague will spread, and then the Skaven army will overwhelm the border, and further north will be the Kingdom of Rikaner.

The city lord Nicholas Hayes was a smart man, and he didn't play the trick of "coexisting with the city-state". He fled to an overseas island with his wealth and subordinates a few days ago, preparing to return after the Ratman passed.

Looking at the chaotic city-states in the distance, Annan thought that those city-states that were countless times stronger than this city-state did not make waves before the rat wave... I hope that the Kingdom of Rikaner will not repeat the same mistakes.

"Those abandoned residents have nowhere to go. We should be able to easily bring them back to Xingyue Bay when we dock at this time."

"Xingyue Bay can't hold so many people..."

Louis City is a city-state with a population of 3 to 1. Even if more than half of them escaped, there would be at least [-] people left—more than the population of Xingyue Bay.

"Okay, dock."

Annan changed his mind, and he can help as much as he can.The city lord, Nicholas Hayes, could not care about the civilians who would never die like weeds, but Annan couldn't.

"After sending people back, I need you to go back to the Strait of Obiris."

"Because of the Count?" Francois asked.

"Well, Ulmit is going to rebuild its homeland, and the ratmen there should have left."

"Get ready to dock!" Francois shouted to the crew, exhaling: "I will take a good rest when I get back."

"Now is also okay."

Theoretically, the New Initial can allow all crew members to return to Xingyue Bay to rest at night, and then return to the ship to work during the day.

"Forget it, let's rest after finishing all the tasks..."

As the New Initial sailed into the harbor, fleeing crowds gathered on the harbor, bringing chaos and cries.It doesn't matter if they are not calm, the water elementals on board will help them calm down.

"Quiet!"

Francois appeared on the deck, overlooking the crowd at the pier: "I shouldn't have helped you, but abandoned you like your lord..."

Some weep with panic-filled, others find hope—like all twists and turns have a "but."

"But I have a good lord. He can't accept the fate of innocent civilians...Annan Reeves, that name should be known to everyone. Or a more popular name: Jack."

There was a murmur on the pier.

"Among you are farmers, sailors, professionals, gangsters, and spies of the city lord..." Francois swept his eyes, "but it doesn't matter. To all those who are willing to join Xingyue Bay, You promise that you will be given a new beginning: free houses, stable law and order, and fair laws, and you only need to do one thing: give your loyalty to your lord."

"Second officer, put down the bridge."

This morning, the residents of Xingyue Bay discovered that the portal in front of the Lord's Mansion had opened again, and this time there were more new residents than ever before.These people still maintain a kind of surprise and enthusiasm strangely, shouting the names of Annan and Jack and offering words of loyalty.

"What's going on with them?" Annan standing in front of the window on the second floor couldn't help being curious.

"It seems that Francois said something to them."

At this time, François ran to the increasingly empty city of Louis.There is chaos and flames everywhere, like the last carnival.

There were hardly any people to be seen on the street. Francois was walking in the empty street, feeling quietly...

He saw a figure who was also wandering the street. It was a young man in aristocratic attire, holding a long sword with a hilt inlaid with crystals.

"Aren't you leaving yet?" Francois took the initiative to talk.

"I'm waiting for the Ratman!" said the young man.

"what?"

The young man waved his long sword and shouted firmly: "My weapon will cut the neck of the Rat Man!"

"Have you ever seen a Ratman?" Francois asked curiously.

"Of course! They're ugly and weak, and my sword went through their throats easily, and you cowards who run away when you hear the Ratmen..."

"Then don't you know that Ratmen are always in groups?"

"What's the difference between a rat man and a group of rat men?" the young man said disdainfully.

François told him that it was a whole clan of skaven who attacked: "If a skaven were the size of an ant, they could easily cover the city."

"This is impossible!" Jian Feng, a young man immersed in the imagination of becoming a hero, pointed at Francois: "Coward, get out of my stage!"

Francois was quite tolerant, and didn't even reprimand the young man for his rude words, but regretted the despair of the ignorant people who had no chance to see the Ratmen attack.
