hero destiny

Chapter 37 Dangerous situation

Although Lading had done a lot of preparation work, he did not expect that such a situation would appear when the beast horde really happened.

At the end of the month of falling leaves in the seventh year of Kingfisher, the monsters walked out of the wild and chaotic black forest and rushed to the land of civilization.In the entire North Klein region, as if overnight, countless monsters emerged from the ground. They wantonly attacked humans, destroyed villages, and annihilated all representatives of civilization.

Since three days ago, refugees fleeing the beast horde have been entering Thunder Port, and now, a large number of poor homeless civilians have gathered in Thunder Port.

Redding had asked Angela to prepare some preparations for taking in refugees, but compared with the current situation, their previous preparations were still far behind.

Many refugees managed to escape from the village after the beast tide started. A large number of people ran into Thunder Port without any property, just wearing a single piece of clothing.

Near Leiding's camp, a large number of refugees did not have tents to live in, and could only sleep on the streets. Those prepared tents were given up to the old, weak, sick, and people injured in the beast tide. Although the conditions were poor, the refugees Still grateful to Ledin and Angela for their generosity.

There were private soldiers arranged by Angela in advance to maintain order. Although this scattered temporary residence was filled with a noisy and uneasy atmosphere, but fortunately everything was in order and orderly, which gradually stabilized the mood of the refugees.

According to Lunos, in the refugee camp near the north wall of the city the night before, there was a tragedy of trampling on each other. The reason was that some people went crazy and screamed in the middle of the night. As a result, people mistakenly thought that monsters had invaded the city.

The panicked crowd immediately ran around.Coupled with the rogues, gangsters, idlers and scum mercenaries who fished in troubled waters and wanted to rob and make money, the situation in the North City was out of control for a while. With the inaction of the nobles and the fuel of the unstable elements, dozens of shops unexpectedly appeared. devastated and hundreds of people died.

In this regard, the aristocratic council didn't say anything at all, and turned a blind eye to the large number of refugees who fled to Thunder Port. They only mobilized all the city guards to implement martial law in the city and alert the situation of the beast tide outside the city.

"Ledding, we can't go on like this, we have to do something!" Angela followed Ledding, and seeing the refugees who were short of food and clothing, she felt that she should take action, at least to ensure the food and housing of the refugees.

"Angela, I understand what you mean. I will join Shari in the name of our family to raise an objection to the noble council. Anyway, the Storm family and the Christopher family belong to North Klein One of the masters, the safety of Port Thunder is also our responsibility." Ledin also felt that the situation happened so fast that he could hardly react.

At this time, the situation outside Thunder Port was very strange. In the south and north of the city, a large number of monsters gathered. It seemed that they were accumulating enough power to prepare to attack the city.However, there was no monster in the east and west of the city, and the refugees who fled from these two sides passed through the crowd of monsters to enter Thunder Port.

Although Ledin also suspected that someone induced the behavior of the monsters, he didn't understand the benefits of concentrating the power of nearby humans.

At this time, the most important thing facing Redding is to deal with these refugees. As a child of a noble family from North Klein, the last thing he wants to see is that ordinary civilians lack food and clothing and are driven away by monsters. And harm, because preventing these things from happening is the reason and responsibility of the nobles.

But in Port of Thunder, Redding only saw the nobles who were corrupted by power without a trace of responsibility. The fellows of the noble council were still intoxicated, busy fighting for power and profit, but did nothing to the beast tide happening in front of them.

Redding, who couldn't bear it, came to the door of the noble council with Sha Rui, with deep dissatisfaction with the noble council, and begged to see the speaker of Thunder Port.

"Please see me? The speaker is very busy, so I don't have time to pay attention to you local leopards! Unless I bring gold coins, I may be free to inform you. It's fine if you don't let this little girl accompany brother!" The guard at the door was very excited. She didn't want to lose face, and actually taunted Leiding and Sha Ruilai who showed the noble family crest.

The most unbearable thing for Lading was that a small guard dared to be so arrogant after seeing the family emblem of the nobleman, and finally dared to insult Sha Rui with such words.

Sha Rui blushed with anger at such rude words, out of noble etiquette, she couldn't say a word of rebuttal.

"Earth leopard? Even the earth is also a leopard, not a sheep. You must know that a leopard can eat people, and it has great power."

Although Leiding's voice was low, the cold words were clearly heard by the people around him.When Ledin spoke, he directly activated the magic of the Flame Hand. During the release of the first-level energy level of the black iron, the power of the fire element instantly burned the opposite guard to ashes.

Ledding's iron-blooded means and unscrupulous attitude scared another guard at the gate of the noble council into a fool.

"You...you...you dare to attack the soldiers of the city guard. Are you plotting rebellion?" While speaking, the guard's teeth chattered. If this wasn't the gate of the noble council, the guard probably fled away long ago.

"As civilians, you are arrogant and unreasonable to the nobles. You openly ask for bribes and insult ladies. Those are enough to be executed. I just disciplined my subordinates on behalf of the speaker. How could it be treason? Now you can report !" Laiding was not at all afraid of these miscellaneous soldiers and the noble forces behind him.

Originally, with Leiding's self-cultivation, he would not have the same knowledge as these ordinary people, but the guy who was burned to death just now dared to insult Sha Rui.If you kill it, you will kill it. In the game, Laiding has been dealing with various forces all day long. He can be regarded as a murderer. A sheep that dares to block the lion's path has only one end!

"Yes... yes, I will report." The guard was photographed by Laidin's aura, and he didn't know how to face the terrifying existence in front of him. Antelope is the best.

"The descendants of the Storm family and the Christopher family? They also killed one of my guards! Well, let them in! Take them to the reception room, and I'll be there in a while." The speaker listened to the guard's message After passing it on, I thought about it for a while, and didn't mention how to deal with Leiding's killing of the guards at all, but let the guards take them into the reception room.

Following the trembling guards who led the way carefully, Ledding and Shari entered the reception room of the Thunder Port Noble Council.The entire reception room is huge. The host's seat is on a raised platform, and the place where he sits with the guests just shows the difference between up and down, which can unconsciously shape the host's aura in people's minds.

It's a pity that overall, the workmanship and decoration of the entire reception room are relatively rough. There are no patterns carved on the surrounding walls, and there are only a few isolated oil paintings on the walls-all of which are portraits of previous Hong Kong governors.

There is no connotation!This is Laiding's evaluation, but given the fact that Port of Thunder has only been established for more than 20 years, it is really impossible to produce any earth-shattering epic masterpieces.

Drinking the scented tea brought by the servant, I waited for about a quarter of an hour.

The speaker finally remembered the existence of the guests and appeared at the door of the living room.

Seeing the Speaker coming, Ledding and Shari immediately stood up out of courtesy and gave a noble salute.

"You don't need to be too polite, you are the descendants of Storm and Christopher! Is there anything you want to come to the noble council?" The speaker, who took the seat of honor, asked gently and cordially.

If ordinary people were watching this scene, they would definitely think that Ledding and Shari were juniors that the speaker was familiar with, rather than the "savage people" who just killed the parliamentary guards.

Seeing that the speaker didn't mention Meng Lang at the door at all, Lading didn't care, and he acted like a junior, "Ah, speaker, we're here just to help you relieve your worries. With so many refugees, you are so busy that you will not be able to spare enough time to manage these matters. As a member of Klein County, we, the Storm family and Christopher, must do our best for the glory of the nobility, especially Come and ask for orders to carry out the work of appeasing the refugees."

After hearing Laiding's remarks, the speaker did not express his position immediately, but took a sip of tea slowly.I didn't expect that the kid in front of me could speak, he didn't blame the noble council at all, and even wrapped his behavior of entering the power class in the cloak of helping, what a talent!However, Port of Thunder is just a piece of land to be abandoned, you can do whatever you want.

With such thoughts in mind, the speaker gave his answer: "Well, there are not many young people with a sense of responsibility like you now. I am very pleased! Since you have made such a request, I will use the Thunder Harbor Council's In name, I entrust this job to you! The terrain of Leiming Port City is open, and you can set up refugee camps in the farming areas in the south and north of the city. The size and location only need to be reported to the noble council. Unfortunately, Leiming Port The food reserves are insufficient, I can only provide you with 3 days’ worth of food for [-] people, for the rest of the shortage, you have to figure out how to solve it yourself, I hope you can complete this task brilliantly!”

The speaker did not obstruct in every possible way as Laiding imagined, but handed over the work to Laiding smoothly. Although he did not provide much of the most scarce food and supplies, this result also surprised Laiding.

This visit baffled Ledding. Not only did he get a formal appointment, but he also got some food.

However, Laiding didn't bother to care about the other party's thoughts, as long as he could do his own thing well, then in the beast tide, Lei Minggang would gain stronger strength to protect himself.As long as this goal is achieved, everything else is trivial.So Ledding immediately asked for a letter of appointment, took Sha Rui back to his station in the south of the city, and started busy with appeasing the refugees.

However, the noble council did not have any scruples about Redding's first step in seizing power. It still went its own way. Apart from firmly grasping the military power of the city guard and implementing martial law in the city, it did not take any measures against the occurrence of the beast tide.

At dawn on the last day of the Falling Leaves Moon, an extremely strong earthquake occurred. Two-thirds of the city wall on the west side of Leiming Port City was completely damaged, and a section about 500 meters away completely collapsed. In terms of defense, great flaws were exposed.

At this time, the army of monsters also appeared under the city wall, staring at the city.

The crisis in Thunder Port has thus formed, and the war is about to break out!
