Chapter 2812 The Day the City Breaks (Ⅲ)
While Master Rawls was still hesitating, the catwoman ranger beside him broke the silence.
"Master, there were royalists present, so it's not convenient for me to say something directly."
At the critical moment, there are still many ways for the clever little meow.
"Let's leave from the back door of the school, walk along Fifth Avenue to the end, turn right into the slums, there is a garbage dump at the southernmost end of the slums, there is a secret passage called 'Brandy Trail', which can lead directly to the Eve River outside the city pier."
"There is a boat at the pier. Let us sail along the river to the southeast. Before dawn, we can reach the confluence of the Eve River and the Delin River, and enter the Delin River from there."
"Now it's the flood season, the river is wide and the current is turbulent. Let's take a boat and head south. If everything goes well, we can reach Delin Town within ten days."
"Brandy Trail? I didn't even know there was such a secret road out of the city!" Thomas was shocked.
Catwoman gave the fat man an angry look.
"This secret road is specially used by the 'Sons of Liberty' in the city to smuggle spirits into the city to sell their stolen goods, so it is called the 'Brandy Trail'. If even a rich young man like you knew about it, he would have been known for a long time. The anti-smuggling police have blocked it!"
"The enemy army is about to come in, now is not the time to quarrel, let's go!" Edward urged.
Master Rawls nodded, and called everyone to follow Xiao Miao to leave the auditorium in a hurry.
When passing the teaching building, Master Rawls suddenly stopped and let everyone go first. He led three students to cast the "any door" and teleported to the warehouse door of Rawls Laboratory, opened the door and walked in.
The warehouse was filled with the smell of hay, and Thomas was so choked that he sneezed twice, joking bitterly: "Hey! This smell, it smells a bit like a stable."
Edward glared at him, and beckoned his younger brother Alan to come forward to help the tutor move the scarecrow from the shelf.
In this warehouse, there are a total of 60 "activated scarecrows", all of which were the early works of Master Rawls.
Ever since he experienced the miracle of bringing the dead back to life, his thoughts have been greatly touched. Since then, he has never made the animated scarecrows that made him famous and rich, and imprisoned the souls of livestock. These stocks have no intention of selling, and have been stored in the warehouse for ashes .
"I didn't expect that there would be a day when these scarecrows would be useful."
Looking at his previous masterpieces, Master Rawls sighed with complex emotions, opened the storage bag, and took out a large pile of metal flat boxes emitting magical aura.
This kind of magic device is the "clockwork module" he invented. Embedding the module inside the structure can give the corresponding magical ability.
The clockwork module is the highest academic achievement that Master Rawls has achieved in his life. His original intention was to use this device to change the human cannibalism war mode for thousands of years. Joan took a "reborn gem" from the goddess of the underworld, and now this naive pacifist has hairy bones in his coffin.
This batch of inventory has not been used for many years, and Master Rawls is a little unfamiliar with the spell to wake up the scarecrows. It took about ten minutes to wake up all sixty scarecrows.
Allen, Thomas, and Edward were not idle either, installing a clockwork module for the scarecrow to strengthen combat effectiveness or grant the ability to release low-level magic.
After getting ready, the four teachers and students led the "Scarecrow Guard" to continue on the road, catch up with Xiao Miao and his party, and left Leiden College through the back door.
Opposite is Fifth Avenue, this area has not been occupied by invaders for the time being, the nearby residents have either fled or hid, and the shops on both sides of the street are also closed.
Master Rawls, Edward, and Thomas whispered together for a while, each opened the storage bag, took out the scroll and cast a spell, and after a while, three caravans pulled by the "Phantom Horse" were summoned, urging everyone to get on the car.
There are not enough vehicles, life-saving is the most important thing, don't begrudge the spell scrolls, the three teachers and students continued to cast spells, and within two minutes they summoned six phantom caravans.
There were a total of nine carts, which could barely accommodate all the fleeing teachers and students. Xiao Miao, A Zhi, and Benny each rode a fast horse to lead the way, leading nine caravans full of refugees to gallop along the empty street.
There was no room for the scarecrows on the car, so Master Rawls and his three students cast spells to create three "floating disks", stacked the scarecrows on the "floating disks", and then each rode a phantom horse, The horse is urged to gallop ahead, and the "floating disc" carrying the piles of straw stacks automatically follows behind the horse's buttocks, also floating fast.
In less than an hour, this refugee team left the urban area of Leiden without any risk and entered the slums known for their messiness.
The streets here are narrow and rugged, and there are countless garbage and illegal buildings occupying the roads, making it impossible for caravans to pass.
The crowd had no choice but to get out of the car and walk, and the catwoman ranger who was born in the slums was still leading the way, leading everyone around the maze of dilapidated houses and alleys until the moon was in the sky, and finally found the garbage dump.
The slum itself is a natural "garbage dump", and the area located in the southernmost part of the slum, which is used as a "garbage landfill" by the wealthy district of Leiden City, is even more messy and indescribably messy!
Both Thomas Chap and Alan Davis were wealthy young men who grew up in their own manors and ranches. They had never seen such sewage, stench, and swarms of mice scurrying around their feet majestically. The scene I went to, after suffering a mental shock, considering the practical need to escape, I could barely bear it.
The most pitiful is Edward Gates.
In fact, his family background is not as good as the two rich and young classmates. He lives a simple and self-disciplined life, and has a military experience. It stands to reason that he can adapt to the harsh environment better.
Helplessly, Edward was born with an obsession with cleanliness, and couldn't stand a dirty environment. Rats were his greatest enemy. When Xiao Miao said that "Brandy Trail" was deep in the garbage dump, he almost fainted on the spot, so he raised his hand decisively. Da Yi took the initiative to ask to be responsible for breaking the queen!
The others didn't have as many problems as Edward, escape was the most important thing, and the filth and stench could only be endured. They followed behind Catwoman, stepped on the sewage, and climbed hard in the mountains of garbage, hoping to escape as soon as possible.
At this moment, in the depths of the night behind him, the sound of hurried horseshoes was faintly heard, and sometimes gunshots sounded.
Allen had set up an "Eagle Eye Observation Point" near the entrance of the slum a long time ago. Hearing the movement was wrong, he quickly switched the angle of view, checked it with the help of "Eagle Eye Technique", and quickly turned around. Mask your tension.
