Alien world

Chapter 853 84. Suicide note
Everyone in the city saw the stubborn warriors by the river. They used their own way to relieve the pressure on the warriors - throwing flower pots and firewood from the edge of the Free City, and killing the unlucky rat men.

Liberty City came directly above the soldiers, gradually lowered, and finally floated about a hundred meters above their heads. The deep shadow finally made the rat tide know what terror was, and they no longer screamed and rushed forward.

Dean Blehim opened the portal, released the Guards Corps and the professionals in the city who were filled with energy and clamored for revenge, and brought back their warriors.

They and the rat men switched offense and defense, chasing the rats around the river, while the civilians gathered in front of the square. At first they were cheering for the heroes, but when those warriors appeared covered in blood, each with varying degrees of injuries, and even fainted after crossing the portal, their cheers turned into respect and silence.

The losses were more severe than Annan imagined. He personally sent them to the battlefield, but only less than a third of them came back...

Annan looked at Femi who walked up to him with a broken arm. He knelt on one knee in front of Annan and lowered his head that would never be lowered to a rat man: "Lord Annan, you saved us once again."

"your hands……"

"At least I'm still alive." Femi tilted his head and looked at the empty cuffs indifferently, "This is the merit of a warrior."

"Ingrid, take the soldiers to the hospital."

The hospital has been vacated, but obviously it cannot accommodate more than 2,000 injured people, so the seriously injured were sent to the ward, while the lightly injured were camped at the entrance of the hospital.

Everyone had been picked up and only those who had just run down were still killing on the ground. Annan gave up the idea of ​​calling them back.

Blood debt must be paid with blood.

At this time, Olmedo suddenly asked: "Where is Uncle Blom?"

"The rat tide caught up with us yesterday. Mr. Blom and his nephew led three hundred soldiers to stop the rat tide."

Olmedo was silent.

They had no hope that Blom was still alive...after all, they didn't see anything when they came, but they still picked up the people on the ground and floated to the place where Blom was blocking the rat tide.

In that blood-stained land where the early morning sun shone, they only saw wandering rats and broken blood-stained weapons and armor, not a single complete body.

Olmedo, who was standing next to Annan, was suddenly shaken. She saw a wandering rat-man wearing the Breeze City standard plate armor - it was ripped off from their bodies.

"Luoxi, take your people and professionals to clean up the rat swarm, leaving no one behind." Annan ordered coldly.

"Sister, please stay with Olmedo while I go to the hospital to check on him."

Annan and Itilia said that they personally went to the hospital to express condolences to every soldier.

Hospitals were so overcrowded that patients with high fevers due to wound infections and plague were not even allowed to enter.

Blom was not the only one who died in battle, many familiar faces from Annan were missing, such as Ymir...

After visiting the seriously injured people, Annan came to the open space crowded with injured people at the entrance of the hospital, and quickly mingled with these injured people who had just climbed out of hell.

Annan sat in front of the campfire and listened quietly to the warrior saying that he used his biceps to crush the head of a rat man. Then a ranger stood up and said that he used a bow string to cut off the head of a rat man. Another mage said that he Cracked the rat man's head with his staff.

But it's not all a happy story. A young Hellfire soldier said he wanted to free his comrades who were being bitten by rats, but instead he let himself shoot the rats. The warriors said that their comrades were unable to lift their weapons and had their throats ripped open by the ratmen.

At this time, an elf ranger came over. She was Ymir's companion and asked Annan if they wanted to go back to Hell Mountain to find Ymir.
"We will go back to Hell Mountain. If she is there, we will save her. If she is not there, we will avenge her." Annan promised.

Another female mage wearing a blood-stained mage robe and silk gloves came over. Annan still remembered her, Georgina, an elite mage. She said inexplicably: "I still think you are more beautiful."

"You are the most beautiful people."

Georgina's tired but bright eyes lit up: "Are you complimenting me on my beauty?" "Of course, you have qualities that are rare among women I have ever seen." Annan said sincerely.

Ilimoyas, eldest sister Itilia, Lady Winter, Princess Seles, the princess, etc... all have the same qualities.

In addition to telling their glorious deeds, one thing the wounded were most concerned about was whether they would launch a counterattack.

"Of course, tooth for tooth, eye for eye, blood debt must be paid with blood!"

The wounded around him suddenly burst into joy: "Did you hear that? Lord Annan wants to wipe out the ratmen in the entire mountain range!"

"What are you talking about? Destroy the rat people in the entire mountain range... Why don't you say I want to destroy the McKean clan?"

"Did you hear that? Lord Annan wants to destroy this rat clan!"

When leaving, Annan had several suicide notes stuffed into his arms.

Everyone's suicide notes disappeared when Ymir lost contact. These suicide notes were written by them as they took the time to break out of the siege. Their owners were all dead.

Annan couldn't find a suitable person, so he simply acted as a messenger himself and delivered these suicide notes to their relatives.

The family members who received the suicide note cried and laughed at the same time. After picking up the soldiers, they went to the hospital immediately, but they could not find their family members and husbands. They were aware of the bad news, but they did not expect Lord Annan to send the suicide note in person.

Annan didn't like this atmosphere and just told them that after the war, Liberty City would give honors and pensions to the soldiers and come to the last address.

But as he got closer and closer to the mansion, Annan's steps became heavier and heavier.

He had been to this place before...or rather, he had been here once during the war with Mad Dog Archduke.

That time also brought news of the death of a soldier.

When Annan knocked on the familiar room 302, he had already given up on the coincidence that it was just the same mansion or the same floor.

The door opened, and a pale woman and an old woman stood behind the door.

"Lord Annan?" the woman said in surprise, her face even paler.

"Is this Ram Brat's home?"

The woman held on to the door frame, but still couldn't stand and fainted.

The old woman helplessly supported her and called the neighbor who stuck his head out to carry her back to the room.

"Please sit down, Lord Annan. Did Ram die on the battlefield?"

Compared to young women, old women are much calmer. There was no sadness in her cloudy eyes that had seen all the vicissitudes of life.

"Well, this is a suicide note kept by his comrades."

The old woman calmly took the bloody suicide note, glanced at it briefly, and shook her head: "I knew he would mention the place where he hid his private money in the letter, but in fact everyone knows it."
