The rapid alarm bell rang throughout the town of Layton, and church knights and priests in white robes rode through the streets, calling every townsman who might be left behind. At the same time, a wind mage came from the church in the town Fly to every corner of the town, and loudly read the order for emergency transfer in the air.
Teams of knights also galloped out of the town to the sporadic villages and towns on the north and south sides of the town and various garrisons. There were beams of teleportation beams constantly lighting up over the mage hall behind the church. It was other people who were going to organize evacuations in distant areas. Personnel: Although most of the entire Beinz parish is covered by mountains and jungles and thus sparsely populated, there are still many small villages and towns beside the town of Layton distributed near the line of defense. These small towns are also part of the line of defense, regulation and town of Layton They are also semi-civilian and semi-military fortresses, and between these villages and towns there are a series of knight garrisons and sentry towers. These units together form the "Holy Lake Defense Line". But now all the residents had to be notified to evacuate the Beinz Parish, so all the people with strong mobility in the town were sent out. The knights were responsible for notifying the nearby villages and towns, and the magicians were sent to remote areas regardless of the cost to organize the evacuation. This is a race against time, and there are only two days left for the locals.
The sudden large-scale evacuation order caused great confusion to the residents of the town and ordinary soldiers. No one knew why such an incredible order was issued—all personnel, regardless of whether they hold teaching positions, must leave Bein within two days. In the Holy Land of Ci, if this order had not been personally signed by the Rector of Girton and Marshal Ovra, I am afraid that the order itself would cause unprecedented chaos. But now there are two top officials of the Beinz Diocese sitting in charge, and four high-ranking ascetic monks have jointly issued a joint statement that this endless order has been enforced. All of the civilians belonged to the military or church members to some extent, so the evacuation was much smoother than expected: Even if the civilians did not understand what happened, they still started an orderly process under the organization of the high-ranking priests. action.
Of course, Gelton is not the kind of impulsive and trustworthy person. The biggest characteristic of the old rector is caution. Therefore, after returning to the town, he first sent a few groups of people to check the situation in the distorted forest, and found that the entire forest was indeed permeated with strange and dangerous energy. Even after the monsters in the forest became berserk, he really gave the order to evacuate completely.
Hao Ren and his party were waiting for the next development in the temporary resting building. The tense and hectic atmosphere in the street outside also affected the few of them, and Lily seemed a little restless: "What should I do... I really have to follow someone who is hundreds of kilometers away. Big guys fighting wide? It's impossible to fight well!"
Y'zaks gritted his teeth: "I've already prepared a meteorite, an extra-large one that can flatten the entire Twisted Woodland—you won't be able to stop me this time, will you?"
Hao Ren looked at this meteorite maniac, and for the first time felt that it was a good habit for Yizaks to be indecisive and throw a hole: "It seems that I can count on you now. I hope it works, otherwise I can only ask my superiors for help." gone."
Vivienne was sitting in front of the window, frowning slightly. She had been thinking about things since just now, and then she raised her head: "Why do you say it's such a coincidence? It's been fine for three thousand years, just in time for us to come here for a few days. Is the Twisted Woodland about to wake up?"
"Nine out of ten it's still related to that spaceship," Hao Ren sucked his teeth, feeling that he had encountered all the troubles. "Perhaps it could have been peaceful for a few days, but now a tens of thousands of tons of spaceship has blown a hole in someone's house, no matter how powerful the lullaby in the holy coffin is, it cannot be suppressed."
Y'zaks suddenly looked thoughtful when he heard this: "There is another possibility: the maelstrom may have destroyed the holy coffin. The 'Lullaby' stopped early."
These are all possible, but it doesn't make much sense to ask why the Twisting Woodland will wake up in such a coincidence these days. Betsy nervously cleaned her long sword over and over again. While busy with her work, Hao Ren heard her muttering when she got closer: "...Grandpa bless you, grandpa bless you, you have studied history all your life, your granddaughter may also be written in the history books now..." After chanting She went on to talk about other things: "... the three great joys in life, being hung on the wall, being hung on the wall, being hung on the wall... There is nothing to be afraid of, maybe this time you will become a hero..."
Hao Ren listened to Coke. I couldn't help but patted Becky on the shoulder: "Relax, we can go offline in an emergency if it doesn't work. We can't die."
Unexpectedly, Becky's expression changed when she heard this: "I've decided, I won't run away this time."
"Huh?" Hao Ren was surprised.
"This is my hometown," Becky lowered her head and continued to wipe the long sword. "The 'Eldest Son' must be very powerful. If it escapes from the Dragon's Back Mountains, I am afraid not many people in this world will survive...they have nowhere to escape, so I won't run away this time either."
Hao Ren was immediately moved, and saw Becky holding the magic sword, closing her eyes slightly and whispering, "But you can force me out without my consent, don't forget..."
Hao Ren: "..." This girl's life is tangled enough!
At this time, Lily's ears moved suddenly, and she slid off the chair neatly and lay down on the ground, her pointed ears pressed against the floor: "Did you hear anything?"
Hao Ren and the others looked at each other, "No."
"There seems to be a rumbling sound," Lily said with one ear pressed to the ground, and the other ear trembling, "it came from the ground..."
Hao Ren immediately felt cold sweat dripping down his neck: "...it can't be so soon, right? Didn't it mean that he will wake up in two days?"
Not long after his words fell, there was a sudden commotion in the distance, and a moment later, the alarm bell in the town rang at a more rapid rhythm!
Everyone rushed to the window, only to see that there were many heavily armed soldiers running in the direction of the noise, and farther away, a blur of flames was rushing up.
Y'zaks was the first to run to the door: "Go and have a look, something is wrong!"
Hao Ren and his party ran to the street, towards the direction of the noise. At this time, more and more panicked crowds appeared on the street, all of them came running from the direction where the flames rose. Becky grabbed a passerby casually: "What's going on in front?"
The passers-by looked panicked, and without looking at anyone, they replied loudly: "Monster! There is a monster running out of the ground!"
Hao Ren's heart tightened. Nine out of ten people who came out of the ground at this juncture had something to do with that root system!
He immediately led the team to run towards the direction of the accident, and bumped into many oncoming townspeople along the way. After turning around a row of bungalows, he saw what the so-called monster was about:
I saw countless large holes were opened out of thin air on the stone road in the town, and a large piece of creepy tentacles came out of the holes, frantically swinging everything within the attack range!
It's the root system of the Twisted Woodland!
These weird and terrifying underground creatures brought unprecedented panic, and the townspeople who were still in a daze finally knew what was going on with the endless evacuation orders. The panicked screams of the civilians and the painful cries of the wounded were everywhere, and the huge tentacles that suddenly emerged from the ground caused great casualties to the civilians who were caught off guard. People fled in all directions, desperately staying away from these unheard of monsters, and the church warriors who heard the news had already fought with those monsters, and the knights desperately controlled those powerful monsters with their heavy armor and special body strengthening power. Tentacles, the magicians on the periphery of the team found the only effective attack method after a short observation: flame.
The fire that rose up just now was caused by the mages attacking the tentacles.
However, in the face of the tentacles of those ancient creatures, the power of ordinary soldiers and spellcasters is too weak. A single tentacles can knock several strong warriors in heavy armor away ten meters away with just a single sweep. The fireballs of ordinary magicians can only burn off a negligible layer of horniness on the surface of the tentacles, and the gathered ordinary town guards are barely stalemate with these monsters with their flesh and blood. Break out of the ground and be broken with haste!
A layer of frightening flames suddenly rose from Y'zaks' body, and he rushed towards the tentacles closest to him like a humanoid chariot, and at the same time shouted at the ordinary soldiers: "Go and notify Ophra and Gelton! Here Leave it to us!"
Hao Ren pulled out his examiner's gun and waved to the others: "Go!" (to be continued~^~)
