Chapter 323 176. The Storm in the Distance
If you want to ask what achievements Wangcheng has, it is as a rock that smashed the cathartic torrent.At least the towns in the north face "just" broken water.

But it is still a disaster to the ants nesting in the river.

Early the next morning, Annan and his Musketeers came to the square.

The bright sunshine washed away the haze of last night.

"Olmedo..."

"No."

"I haven't said what I want yet!"

"Olmedo, the Rat Man is coming, I need you to lend me some" Olmedo imitated Annan's Northland accent, and looked at him playfully, "Xingyue Bay is on the remote west coast, where the shattered Rat Man The tide may not come to you."

"Why not? I am the nemesis of the Ratmen who destroyed the Ratmen's conspiracy twice, they hate me..."

"What you sabotaged is the conspiracy of the Stuen rat, and has nothing to do with the McCann rat."

"Really can not?"

"No."

"I just want a team of knights, and the knight team of the captain of the knights has 100 people. It's best to lend me Bloom!"

Olmedo's blue eyes were smiling: "You really dare to ask for it, Blom is the family's guard,"

The Musketeers were still waiting for him. Annan changed his position and whispered in a pleading voice that only Olmedo could see: "Sister Olmedo..."

A strange feeling grew in his heart, Olmedo paused for a moment, remembering that Annan was still a boy who had just turned 16-but for common people, he had already reached the age to marry a wife and have children.

"Okay. But they can't stay with you, they will come back after the crisis."

If only they hadn't died in the Rat Swarm.Olmedo thought.

Annan is going to ask for help from the other two cities in Plangsong County and the Janna family on the snow mountain fortress.

"They will promise you?"

"Try it and it doesn't cost you money."

Borrow a little from Breeze City, Bettar City, and Harvest City, and the team at Xingyue Bay will be full.

Annan opened the portal and sent the Musketeers back to Xingyue Bay.At this time, a shout came from the crowd outside the square: "Jack! Can we also get merit!"

"Of course, as long as you join Xingyue Bay, your honor and achievements will forever be on the monument of mankind." Annan replied to the disguised Francois in the crowd.

Winking slyly at the astonished Olmedo who said "I clearly agreed to help you, how dare you do this?" Annan rode on the back of the blue dragon, kicked up dust and flew into the distance.

……

The people of Breeze City and Xingyue Bay don't know yet, but only the nobles and some smart people have noticed some kind of calm before the storm from the arrangement of the City Lord's Mansion.

As for the people of Xingyue Bay, the rapid development here has not changed, it just changed from the crazy building of houses in the past to the crazy building of city walls now.

The Musketeers named "First Blood" by Annan expanded from 100 to 1000 people.But before that, Annan listened to the Cavalier Captain's suggestion, let the original Centurion board the New Initial, and rushed to the front line to fight.

Just as the keel of a ship is the foundation of everything, so the soul is the foundation of an army.As long as the soul is still there, this army will not die.And the soul can only be bred through the experience of blood and fire.

Annan and his friends, or Annan and his think tanks chose Yongye Port as the hatching place for their souls.Compared with the unknown wilderness, they are familiar with the situation of Yongye Port: the Ratmen occupied it about ten days ago, and then the elite Ratmen continued to move northward, leaving some chaotic ordinary Ratmen and Elite Ratmen.And the streets save the Musketeers from having to face rat swarms in all directions.

The knight captain also vetoed Annan's idea of ​​sending large elements to follow. Without experiencing danger and sacrifice, the soldiers would throw their guns and escape after the Ratman climbed the city wall.

Annan asked how much pension should be paid if the soldiers died, but Ingrid's words reminded Annan that most of the people in Xingyuewan, composed of refugees and poor people from all over the world, had no family members.

"I cannot let my soldiers die in pointless wars."

In the end, Annan vetoed the knight captain's proposal and only accepted part of it: let a large element guard the port, and the musketeers could retreat to the port when they encountered an irresistible enemy.

The new initial number carrying one hundred Musketeers set off, and the five hundred guards who wiped out the Frost Giants returned. They found sadly that they not only lost the honor of the first battle, but also missed the first meritorious service. A burst of energy.

The workers were also excited. After returning from Breeze City, Lord Annan told all the citizens that the Ratmen were very likely to come in this harsh winter.Then they lived under the walls, and the hammering sounded like the tide day and night.This is their meager contribution to Xingyue Bay—even if the city wall of Xingyue Bay is already seven meters higher than that of Breeze City.

The elite sorcerers of the Waterwheel Mill and the blacksmiths of the blacksmith's shop spend the whole day by the forging hammer. They cast the mold of the magic cannon one day earlier, and there will be a lot more dead in the future rat wave——

With nothing to do, farmers boarded fishing boats to catch as many catches as they could before the bay froze over.Even Laila threw away her principles and replaced her fishing rod with a fishing net.

The eldest sister of Blackstone Castle is still hesitating.She didn't want to migrate to the neighboring country to the east, nor did she want to take refuge in Xingyue Bay.Because the foot is not only the origin of the family, but also the land of the contract of the fire dragon.

Ingrid was trying her best to break one guinea into two gold coins.For example, let workers extend their working hours but cut their salaries in half, levy taxes on the people of Xingyue Bay, the tax rate is 600% of the commercial tax, double the price of food, and spit out the money earned by the people of Xingyue Bay—except for magic guns and Cannons, plate armor, these weapons to deal with the Ratmen did not cut corners, she could save as much as possible.

François was promoting the Sorcerer's Stone and the Collector's Stone while instigating rebellion as an apprentice scavenger.In order to bring sales, he picked up the past - put on women's clothing sales.

Everyone in Xingyue Bay is paying for their own future.Even Annan is no exception!

"My princess, the rat people are heading north, the wild is no longer safe, why don't you let your people take refuge in Xingyue Bay..."

The blue dragon didn't respond, but fortunately Annan knew how to deal with it: "You can't ask me to give you money and let me protect your people?"

"100 gold coins." Eli Moas asked the price.

Annan almost agreed to it, still with a keen sense of business: "You have to bring them first..."

Elimoas still refused, Annan said: "Then how about taking a step back and signing the devil's contract?"

As a result, Elimoas rejected the devil's contract, saying something in the dragon language that the devil is untrustworthy and the friendship between us is so fragile.

Finally, Annan knew the truth: his people had migrated out of the north.

Annan wanted to yell at it, but the words came out: "Forget it... I have one more thing, can you lend me some money?"

The bitter dragon's power suddenly descended on Annan's small body. The blue dragon spread its huge dragon wings and looked down at Annan with sharp vertical eyes.

"I know you don't want to lend me money, but what if I give you interest?"
