The door of the study was knocked open roughly, and a tall alien life squeezed in from the door. It has a liger-like face, but it has three eyes. The wolf-like nose makes it have a very keen sense of smell, and the row of broken teeth on the wide mouth can bite through even steel plates. The orc-like alien has obviously been modified to a certain extent. Its right arm is made of pure metal. The fist covered with rivets and the shoulder tube that emits steam from time to time make it look full of punk style.
Not only does the steel arm allow the Ork to hit harder, it also has a shotgun attached to it, which doubles as a bazooka when the fist is detached. Of course, limited by the amount of ammunition loaded, there is only one shell prepared in the steel arm.
Kirby the Orc, Lavicia's number one bodyguard. It faithfully fulfills the job of protecting Lavigia, but the orcs are sometimes very rigid, and the means of protection are somewhat rude, so Lavigia doesn't like it very much. Kirby's ability is indeed good. After some transformations, its strength is comparable to that of human beings at the seventh level. The rocket launcher in the steel arm enables Kirby to burst into huge combat power in an instant. In addition, its loyalty and bravery are rare qualities. Therefore, Lavisia has criticized it for many years, but has never fired this rude orc.
When he saw Lavigia, Kirby closed the curtains of the study first, and then said to his boss: "Lord Lavigia, we should leave. The whole market is full of those damn scorpions. I don't I think a guard of only ten people in the courtyard can stop these big reptiles, maybe we should find a safer place."
Lavigia screamed: "This is my property, and I'm not going anywhere. If it weren't for you, what about the weapon defense system in the courtyard? Are these all decorations?"
The orc Kirby roughly grabbed one of Lavicia's limbs, and dragged it out of the study: "It's okay for your dogs to scare the ordinary people in the market, but those big reptiles will definitely not eat this trip!" What's more, their loyalty is doubtful. As far as I know, several guards escaped when they saw the big reptile. I personally killed one of them. As for the rest, I guess they don't even have the courage to fight. As for yours Weapon defense systems, you should also know, those are old antiques, you have long forgotten to update them, and now you can't count on them!"
"Okay okay, brave Kirby, loyal Kirby. Can you let go of your damn hand, I'll do it myself." Lavigia broke free from the orc's claws, and walked out angrily. study.
The firelight of the bazaar was reflected outside the window of the corridor, and the raging ice scale scorpions filled the bazaar with chaos and disorder. Lavigia and Kirby were sitting in the long corridor leading to the back of the courtyard. Suddenly, the wall in front of the corridor was torn apart, and a giant scorpion was trying to push its body into the corridor.
"It seems that we have to take a shortcut." Kirby stopped, swung his fist of steel and punched the wall next to him hard. The orc blasted a gap in the concrete wall with a loud bang. Without any explanation, Kirby pushed Lavicia's bloated body into the garden outside.
When passing through this damned gap, Lavicia realized for the first time that maybe he should lose weight, if he couldn't die tonight. In the garden, the fire is even brighter. Dull gunshots and roars came from all directions, two or three giant scorpions had already set their sights on Lavia's courtyard, and the few remaining guards were fighting with the scorpions. But just like what Kirby said, these superficial guards are okay to scare the guys in the market, but in the eyes of the giant scorpion, they are just a piece of food.
A lizardman jumped down from the garden screaming on the roof, and it landed not far from Lavigia. The lizardman looked panic-stricken, and the skin on his body was constantly changing colors. It desperately wants to use its proud ability to blend into the current environment, but unfortunately the color of the skin changed under the panic can't serve as a cover-up at all.
At this time, the giant scorpion in the corridor rushed out, and countless rocks flew in the air. The scorpion nimbly stabbed the half-lizard with its tail thorn, then rolled it up and threw it into the scorpion's mouth to chew. Immediately, blood spattered from the scorpion's mouth, and the half-lizard man only had time to scream once or twice before being completely silent.
Lavigia was trembling with fat all over her body, but luckily Kirby came out of the gap and roughly dragged Lavigia towards the back door. For the first time, Lavicia appreciated Kirby's rudeness, because his feet were too weak to walk on his own.
"But Kirby, where is there a safe place in the market now?"
Just coming into the relatively quiet alley from the back door of the courtyard, Lavigia thought of this headache. Kirby pointed in a certain direction of the bazaar: "Green Forest Hotel, I heard that it has become the last shelter of the bazaar."
"You asked me to seek refuge with the Georgians?" Lavigia screamed, "If Master Midra knows about this, he will tear me apart!"
At the end of the sentence, several ice scale scorpions came in from the alley. At first, these big reptiles just shook their heads looking for food, and suddenly found the big [meat] Queen Lavigia. The giant scorpion's eyes glowed, and it crawled over from the ground and the roof like flying.
Kirby pushed his boss away with one hand and raised his steel arm. Two thin streams of heat sprayed out between the fist and the forearm, and two thick screws bounced off the wrist, causing the fist to fall to the ground, exposing the hollow gun barrel in the wrist.
In the next second, a flash of fire flashed in the barrel, and a bazooka with a warhead sprayed with a shark mark escaped with a burst of flame, and hit the leading ice scale scorpion 0.5 seconds later.
The shell exploded, and a huge fireball rose in the alley. The ice scale scorpion, which was the first to bear the brunt, was directly blown into pieces in the flames, and the two reptiles behind were also sent flying by the shock wave of the explosion, and fell to the ground at the entrance of the alley, unable to move for a while. However, at the corner of the alley, under the reflection of the flames, Lavigia clearly saw the shadows of other reptiles approaching.
Kirby looked at Lavicia and said, "Boss, make a decision quickly!"
Lavigia yelled: "Don't think about it, go to the Green Forest Hotel. Let's get through the night first. As for what Lord Midra thinks, let's ignore him for the time being!"
When it came time to choose between life and loyalty, Lavigia chose the former without hesitation.
In a hall on the top floor of the Green Forest Hotel, Liya was standing in the center of the hall. Next to her was Ademili, and Gignia's ranged support soldiers were scattered around the hall. These murloc spearmen in the shape of guns are firing a series of high-energy beams, killing all the giant scorpions approaching the hotel one by one. There is no doubt that the spearmen occupy the commanding heights, which is tantamount to an advantage for them.
The main reason why they can suppress the scorpion tide's attack is because they can always grasp the location of the scorpion first and kill it. But the biggest contributor to allowing them to accurately snipe is Leah. Leah is closing her eyes, launching her mental scan with all her strength, and firmly controlling the environment around the hotel. No matter which direction the scorpions rushed out from, they couldn't hide from Leah's mental scan.
In addition, Leah has also activated another ability. She uses the ability of the psychic chain to connect with other murloc guards, so that she can direct them to snipe at the scorpion. Originally, it was Leah's ability that she couldn't connect so many murloc guards at the same time, but with Ademily, this problem was easily solved. Ademili doesn't have any fighting ability, but her spiritual power is like a bottomless abyss, an endless sea, bottomless.
Otherwise, how could the inner world that she supported that day accommodate the entry of the will of a planet like Agladis. But now, Ademily is acting as a spiritual booster, greatly expanding Leah's upper limit of spiritual power, so that her spiritual chain can connect all the murloc guards.
With the seamless cooperation of the three, the Green Forest Hotel is kept tight. All the ice scale scorpions were cleared away from the range of 500 meters, and the place within 500 meters was like a thunder pool, making it impossible for the scorpions to cross. However, the distance of this boundary line is shortening. As more and more alien races pour into the hotel to seek shelter, their arrival also attracts more ice scale scorpions towards the hotel.
This means that the workload of Leah and the murloc guards has skyrocketed. If it wasn't for Ademilia's increase and continuous replenishment of Leah's mental power, neither of Leah's two abilities could be maintained until now. And with the sharp increase in the number of scorpions, Leah's counting became more and more urgent, and the murloc spearmen's beam weapons never stopped.
The energy source of these weapons is directly extracted from the biological energy of the murloc guards, even though they are all trained elite fighters. But under such a high-density combat situation, it gradually became unbearable.
Seeing this situation, Ademili said in the spiritual world: "Miss Leah, please connect me with the chief guard of Balmore."
Leah didn't know what she wanted to do, but she couldn't be distracted by asking now. Nodding her head, Leah quickly searched for Balmore's mental response, and connected his spirit with Ademili's after a while.
After the spiritual connection, Ademili immediately said: "Head of the Guard, how is the situation in the lobby?"
Balmore's voice sounded directly in Ademili's mind: "It's a mess, there are too many people who have come to seek asylum. There are so many that we can't maintain the necessary order. If this continues, I worry that the situation will get out of control. "
"Indeed, according to Miss Leah's induction, more and more scorpions are coming towards us. Our guards alone can no longer ensure the security of the hotel, the chief guard, so that those who seek refuge will also Rise and join the defense. Only then can we hope to repel the scorpions."
"This... I'll try my best. Look at it horizontally and vertically. These guys are all selfish."
In the lobby, Balmer ended the call with Ademili. He looked towards the lobby, which was filled with lives of different races. From time to time, other people would come in through the broken gates, making the already not spacious lobby even more crowded.
At the beginning, only four or five aliens occasionally passed by the hotel and saw that the hotel was as safe as a fortress, so they ran into the hotel to seek protection. Ademili didn't object, and with their strength, it was not impossible to protect four or five more people. But as more and more foreigners poured into the hotel, that was another matter.
There were too many people in the hall, so that the few remaining murloc swordsmen in Gignian could not play the role of maintaining order at all. Balmore could only transfer the swordsmen to guard the passage leading to the hotel, so as to prevent these guys from rushing up, thus affecting Ademili and their battle on the top floor.
Now, the whole lobby is buzzing. The aliens were discussing the sudden disaster, and many voices attributed the disaster to the humans who entered the market in the evening. It has to be said that, to a certain extent, such a guess is correct.
In such an environment, Balmer jumped on the counter in the lobby. The action of the chief guard immediately attracted the attention of others, and this was exactly the effect Balmer wanted. He took a deep breath, and said loudly: "Everyone, I believe you have also seen it. More and more scorpions are coming towards us. It is already difficult for us to defend against the attack of scorpions with our own strength. In this crisis At this moment, I hope that everyone can unite, only if everyone works together, can we hope to survive this disaster!"
As soon as Balmore's words fell, there was a sullen voice: "My lord, if we have the ability to fight, do we still need to hide here?"
The chief guard looked towards the source of the voice, but what was speaking was a humanoid creature that looked like an octopus. It is the human trafficker Rano, the octopus waved his tentacles and said in a sarcastic tone. However, Kerano's words were recognized by many foreigners, so many foreigners refused Balmore's request in a hurry.
Balmo was furious when he heard the voice of refusal, and the chief guard finally couldn't help shouting: "Shut up, you selfish guys. Don't even think about it, if you didn't come here to seek refuge, we How could it attract the attention of the scorpions. Please remember, we have no obligation to protect you. If it weren't for Miss Ademili's kindness, do you think you can stand here now?"
The chief guard's words made the aliens feel a little ashamed, and the voices that opposed the defense just now gradually disappeared. But the octopus man Rano said again: "My lord, we Mobystone have always been very safe. Those ice scale scorpions usually live in the deep caves in the forest. Why did you and those so-called human friends come here today?" , these big reptiles immediately attacked our market. Don’t you think it’s all too coincidental? If you want me to say, I’m afraid you provoked the scorpions, which is why this is happening. Now we ask you to provide Protection, isn't it a reasonable thing?"
As soon as the words came out, many foreigners immediately joined in and said, "Yes, yes, the trouble was caused by you, so naturally you have to deal with it."
Balmer's eyes were about to burst into flames when he heard this, and just as he was about to explode, a strange wave swept across the lobby. At the same time, a soft voice sounded in the minds of all the beings in the hall: "I am Ademili from Georgia, please be quiet and listen to me!"
