hero destiny

"The wall to the west of Port Thunder has collapsed!"

"The city guards can't hold it anymore! The monsters are about to invade the city!"

The news spread quickly in Thunder Port. In less than a day, everyone from noble families to traffickers, and even citizens who usually don't go out, knew the fact that the city wall of Thunder Port had collapsed and could not be defended for long.

"Haha, God helped me! Now I can justifiably evacuate!" The speaker of the noble council also got the news at this time.

The Speaker has long wanted to leave Thunder Port, but this kind of thing always needs a reason to execute. Originally, his plan was to stay for a period of time, pretending to be invincible, and then lead people to escape from the sea, and destroy the entire area within Thunder Port. The enclave" was traded to Diyala's undead as chips to gain the support Diyala needed for the Duke's party in the Kingdom of Stormwind.

Now, the city wall has collapsed.In this way, you can retreat directly.

When you return to the Stormwind Kingdom, you only need to tell the king that the city walls collapsed due to natural disasters, and you can't resist the attack of the beast tide. You can only reluctantly give up the defense of Thunder Port, and you can do business without taking any responsibility. Other nobles will testify for themselves.

"Come here! Let the commander of the city guards come to see me! We are going to arrange a plan for the evacuation of the nobles. You go to inform the councilors in the city and convene the nobles' council! Thunder Port is already in turmoil, and the precious blood of the nobles must be preserved. , we need to discuss the plan to retreat from the sea." The speaker gave instructions to the guards who came in.

Soon, the commander of the city guards and all members of the noble council reached an agreement to abandon the entire defense plan of Thunder Port!

The nobles will retreat from the sea under the protection of the city guards, but due to the limited number of large ships suitable for sailing in the open sea, most of the other things need to be abandoned except for the necessary supplies.

Uncharacteristically, the aristocratic council actually carried out an efficient retreat plan. All parties in Thunder Port immediately panicked. Everyone knew that the big ship was the key to the escape plan, and how to obtain limited tickets was the top priority. .

The capacity of large ships and the number of people on board are limited, and it is impossible to transport too many people. In the entire port of Thunder Port, there are only three ships suitable for sailing in the open sea, and one of them is the private property of the speaker. The remaining two ships are the property of the chamber of commerce that belongs to the holdings of the noble council.

Although there are not many nobles in Thunder Port, it is impossible to accommodate all three ships!What's more, some aristocratic families still own a lot of property, no matter how they are calculated, all people will suffer great losses.

In the final agreement reached by the aristocratic council, the weight of personnel and cargo is calculated according to the shareholding ratio. Whoever owns the weight of the ship can decide more on the ownership of the ticket and the weight of the cargo.

This agreement was immediately passed unanimously by all the council members, because they are all vested interests. Unfortunately, members of the declining nobles and small families were determined by these people without their knowledge.

After the announcement of this agreement, the aristocratic district of Port Thunder - the streets of Negan District were overwhelmed by people, and all the nobles were busy making calculations.

Some people in the noble family were inexplicably excited, shouting long live the lord, this is the person who was told that they would be taken away; while others were ashen-faced, as if the sky had fallen, this was the one who was determined to stay batch of people.

What is valuable and easy to carry, and what cannot be taken away and needs to be discarded, was also quickly sorted out. For a while, the stewards of various nobles were wandering around the city, selling various real estate and large-scale items.However, everyone in Thunder Port understands that these things will belong to Warcraft after a while, so how about real money for this?There must be something wrong with the brain!

"Leon, do you really decide not to follow me to the capital?" In a noble courtyard in Negan District, an older nobleman asked his young attendant.

"My lord, thank you for your kindness, but I still have a mother and sister to take care of. If I go to the capital with you alone, I'm afraid... So, I am very grateful for your kindness, but I still can't accept it!" The gratitude on the young man's face was evident, but he couldn't abandon his loved ones, so he had to give up the hope of escaping alone.

"Hey, it's a pity, you have such a great talent! I'm sorry for your father, I can't take your Leonardo family away, this is my incompetence! But I still hope you can think carefully before answering me. "The older nobleman is still making the final attempt to retain him.

"No, my lord, as a quasi-noble, I also want to uphold the honor of my family. I swear to live and die with the city. I can only appreciate your kindness. I think my mother will understand me, and my father in the kingdom of heaven will also support me. Proud." When the young boy said this, his face was full of determination and determination.

……

"What? Just give a boat ticket, and you need to pay [-] gold coins in advance? Why don't you grab it!"

The speaker was in his 40s, with a shrewd face, and his big red nose was his biggest feature. His name was Li Cha, and he was the largest grain merchant in Leiming Port.

At this time, Li Cha was negotiating with a few merchants from Thunder Port, in the side hall of the noble council, with the noble butler who was selling boat tickets.

"Hey, don't think it's too expensive. There are too many people who want this ticket, and this is a discounted price for you! If the Speaker didn't think you guys are talented people, I wouldn't bother talking to you guys. Long-winded! Is there really no one? Then I won’t accompany you, there are too many people with this kind of money.” Saying this, the noble butler turned around and left.

"Don't...don't, they don't want their lives, I want them! At worst, go back to the Stormwind Kingdom and start all over again!" A fat businessman with a round face shouted immediately when he saw that the housekeeper was about to leave.

"Hmph, I don't know how to flatter you. It's late now. If you want a boat ticket, you have to pay 1 gold coins!" However, the authority of the noble housekeeper made the noble butler a lot stronger and more majestic.

Several merchants obediently accepted the killing price. You must know that the assets of tens of thousands of gold coins can be mobilized by these big merchants if they raise a lot of money in normal times.But if you want cash, even big businessmen with face like them won't be able to prepare it in a short while.What's more, today's Leiming Port is in the midst of a wave of selling goods, and all the things that can usually make money can't be sold.The cash of tens of thousands of gold coins may not be able to make up even if the family goes bankrupt!

"The speaker also sympathizes with your difficulties. If you don't have gold coins, you can replace them with portable valuables or hard currency. If you really can't get anything out, you can sign a servant contract with the speaker to pay off the debt. Of course, the price will be paid. The price of the item depends on how the Speaker decides." Seeing the subdued looks of the merchants, the housekeeper felt complacent, and if he didn't have gold coins to pay the bill, hehe, he could take another big deal off of them. .

"Hmph, I, Li Cha, have worked hard all my life to earn wealth. I am not reconciled to being so cheap to you vampires. Besides, my wife, daughter, family, and the foundation of the past 20 years are all here, so let me leave alone? I It can't be done!" After Li Cha said this, he turned and left.

Li Cha made up his mind to live and die with the city.At the age of more than 40 years, if he escaped to heaven with the chairman and the others, what would happen when he got to the eye of the storm?The foundation of his industry, contacts, and family have all taken root in Leiming Port. Instead of escaping, it is better to take a chance, gamble his life, and do another business. Losing is nothing more than death and family destruction, which is much better than the vampires of the cheap noble speaker.

……

A lot of anger and unwillingness, helplessness and pain surfaced in the hearts of those who were about to escape but had no way out; and the scenes of joy and sorrow, and the separation of wives and children were also staged in those who finally found a way out.

Maybe this difference is the eternal separation between man and nature, everyone knows what it means to be left behind, so there are some who abandon their wives and children, and even more escape alone!

Not everyone has the spirit of seeing death like home like Leon, or the adventurous spirit of gambling with life like Li Cha.For the chance of escape, most people would not hesitate to kill father and son, turn brothers against each other, or go bankrupt.

In short, in the crazy moment of Port Thunder, all the darkness and ugliness in the world, accompanied by that ticket—the hope of life, is constantly being staged here.

……

Outside the western wall of the city, Redding was on alert at this moment, and behind him were refugees and mercenaries who were repairing the city wall.

After discovering the collapse of the city wall, Ledin has been here. He has been observing the situation of the monster army. In the morning, he even repelled two tentative attacks of monsters.

"Damn it, why haven't the city guards appeared yet! It's been half a day, and even if they were climbing, those guys should have crawled over. Angela, do you have any news from there?" Ledding finally saw Angela, and couldn't wait asked her.

Angela went out to report early in the morning!

However, after receiving the news, the city guards not only did not immediately support the western city wall to help them resist the attack of monsters, but bought time for repairing the city wall.

All regular army units received orders from the noble council early in the morning, requiring them to be on strict alert and not to leave the city privately.

In the end, only the guards at Port Thunder, led by their old captain Lance, followed Angela to this side for support.

"Lord Leiding, the city guards have received an order to stick to the martial law! They will not appear outside the city walls. And I have received a shocking news that all members of the noble council have passed the decision to abandon Thunder Port and retreat The proposal. Now the nobles and wealthy and powerful businessmen in the city are preparing to evacuate. It is estimated that at the latest, they will set sail tomorrow night and leave Thunder Port by sea." Angela spoke quickly to Ledding said.

"what?"

Ledin couldn't believe his ears, the truth was so!

No wonder, in the history of the game, it was Angela who organized the civilians to resist the beast horde. These shameful nobles actually wanted to evacuate without any resistance?In the plan with Ledding, he had already expected the escape of the nobles, but it was too straightforward to just board the boat and leave without even showing any resistance! ?

Leiding originally planned to use the city guards and noble private soldiers to resist for a while, but now it cannot be implemented.

However, in this case, the chances of existence in this crisis are even greater. If the nobles all flee, as a noble and a black iron rank professional who implements the plan to appease the refugees, Ledin will directly gain the right to speak here without having to Researched how to seize dominion over Port Thunder.

In the turbulent Thunder Port, let's see how Lading can turn the tide and resist the attack of the beast tide!
