After discovering the enemy's large army, Lorgar knew in her heart that it was time to evacuate. As Chief Roland and Lightning had said, such an opponent was definitely not something she could handle alone. is what matters.
She has proven herself in previous battles, and if the devil takes root here, she will have many opportunities to fight against this group of monsters in the future.
Although she made a judgment in her head, she did not choose to leave the first time, but planned to find a high point and get close to observe the movement of the devil. Just saying "I saw a lot of devils" can easily make people think that she fled back, and if she can bring back more information, even the Great Chief will have to accept her favor.
In this way, no matter whether the words the other party said when they met were caring or sarcastic, it would be self-evident that what she wanted was not an apology, but an approval. Even in a life-and-death battle, she can play a surprising role. To put it in a simple way, this is her personal glory, and in a deep sense, it is of great benefit to increase the weight of the Crazy Flame Clan in the heart of the Great Chief.
So she did it.
Of course, she wouldn't say these thoughts outright, but simply described them as curious.
Lorgar quickly found an abandoned stone tower not far from the Taquila ruins. Although the tower was almost half-destroyed and covered with moss and vines, it was also the best observation point nearby.
In order to facilitate evacuation, she did not put on clothes, but carried her luggage behind her back, wrapped a cloak and climbed to the top of the tower.
The big hole at the top was just for her to shelter in, and with the curtain-like rattan, the terrifying beasts that flew over her head several times failed to find her.
Then she finally saw the true face of the giant monster.
That wasn't even a living thing!
"Aren't they... alive?" Wendy couldn't help breaking the silence when she heard this.
"That's all I can think," Lorgar whispered. "Those guys don't look biological at all, but rather..."
"It's like what?"
"The iron bridge you built over the Chishui River."
Everyone looked at each other, and it was difficult to understand for a while, "Bridge?"
"I... thought it was incredible, but it's the truth," she coughed weakly, "it has a torso as straight as a bridge deck, and four long legs like bridge piers on either side of the body, just... whether it is The torso or limbs were not covered with any flesh and blood, and through those hollow skeletons and iron pieces, I could clearly see the scene behind the monster."
Wendy couldn't help taking a deep breath.
A steel bridge that can move on its own? Is this something the devil made
After a short rest, Lorgar continued, "Each skeleton monster is at least eight or nine feet high, and many devils are fixed on its top surface. From a distance, it looks like layers of worm eggs. And its abdomen On the other hand, there is a huge leather bag hanging like an organ peeled off from something, not only can you feel its pulsation, but you can also see the dark red mist surging inside through the skin." She clenched her fists, Gently pressed it to his chest, "Three gods are on top, those monsters look so evil."
Ash frowned, "… Then what?"
"Then they lay down around the ruins, with hundreds of tubes dangling from their skins and plunging into the ground, turning the surrounding land into a dark-brown lump. And the weeds and trees above it quickly withered, as if by something. It's like draining life. Most of the devils also sank into the ground, leaving only hundreds of mad demons and a dozen or so terrifying beasts to continue to move around the ruins, which should be responsible for patrolling and other tasks."
"Have you ever seen a devil with countless eyeballs and tentacles?" Wendy asked while recording the wolf girl's discovery, "They tend to stay high, and at first glance they look like a wriggling mass of sarcoma. "
"A multi-eyed demon?" Lorgar shook his head. "Lightning mentioned its danger to me, but I didn't find it in the army of demons."
"Then your injury is..."
"I underestimate the enemy," she said with a frustrated expression. "I hid at the top of the tower for three days, and the terrifying beasts flew past this area many times, but there was no sign that they wanted to investigate this place thoroughly. I thought they were crazy before. The demon's horn did not attract the attention of the large group, and it was not until the evacuation that several groups of demons were found lurking nearby."
"Wait... They still do this kind of thing?" Higurashi said in surprise, "I heard from you before that the devil is not a beast with a strong body but a simple mind?"
"It's true that the devils at the bottom are like this, but it's different when someone directs them," Tilly pondered. "There is probably a high-level devil among these enemies."
"Faced with an unknown enemy, there is no perfect way to deal with it," Ashes patted her on the shoulder, "It is very rare that you can escape from danger with will and return to Neverwinter alive."
This was the first time Wendy had heard such a formal compliment from the extraordinary.
"Perhaps, fortunately... that guy didn't come to trouble me in person," Lorgar forced a weak smile, "When my whereabouts were revealed, I immediately turned into a wolf and used the darkness to speed up my escape, which also made Their spear-throwing attacks lost their head. I don't know how many chasing soldiers there are, but there are always terrifying beasts circling overhead."
"You killed all the pursuers?" Tilly asked suspiciously.
Wendy also had a suspicion in her heart. If she couldn't get rid of the enemy's pursuit, the wolf girl would be bound to be endlessly chased and intercepted. The serious injuries she suffered also proved this. In addition, she could only be beaten passively, so it seemed that she had fallen into a desperate situation at that time.
"No... They gave up the chase." Lorgar replied, "I don't understand why... As long as I catch up for another day, I will definitely not be able to last, but they chose to retreat."
"Red mist!" Tilly quickly responded, "It's the red mist carried by the devils that ran out. Do you remember where they retreated?"
She rubbed her forehead and thought for a while, "It's probably five or six miles away from the grassland."
"Where's the map? Get a map."
Seeing Tilly gesturing the distance back and forth on the drawing, Wendy also understood the meaning of the other party's words. Those skeleton monsters are likely to be a magical machine that transports the red mist, just like the siege beasts shown by the church, and Lorgar's description also indirectly proves this, whether it is the army sinking into the ground, or being caught by the red mist. The polluted land is exactly the same as the scene in the devil's camp behind the snow-capped mountains.
If the terrifying beast from the ruins can only approach the edge of the wild land, does that mean that Neverwinter City is still in a relatively safe situation for the time being
After learning about the general situation, Lorgar looked exhausted, and blood oozes from the bandage wrapped around the wound.
After comforting her to take a good rest and concentrating on recuperating before Nana came back, Wendy led everyone out of the bedroom and gently closed the door. 1.
