Chapter 2734 Harvest
Another week.
This week has been anything but quiet.
Airui City succeeded in breaking the seal of the source of disaster, and monsters emerged from the caves continuously to attack Airui City's army.
In just two hours, more than a thousand adventurers were killed, including twelve national forces.
The battle lasted for more than ten hours in total, and more than 10,000 adventurers were killed. The remaining half of the adventurers retreated and fled after seeing a huge white claw protruding deeply into the ground.
However, if running away can solve the problem, there will be no more problems that day.
A larger hole was opened in the source of the disaster, and a dragon-shaped skeleton monster shrouded in white mist crawled out.
After breaking out of the ground, it chased in the direction of the retreating army of Airui City without hesitation, and caught up with the defeated army who was resting in place only two kilometers away from Airui City.
Seeing that there was no way to escape, more than 10,000 adventurers had no choice but to fight back desperately.
When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins.
After paying the price of nearly two thousand lives, they finally killed this skeletal dragon monster.
However, before they had time to be happy, a group of toads bigger than the ground dragon jumped over.
The huge body fell to the ground, causing slight tremors. The adventurers turned pale and let out desperate screams. Some insulted the Carter family, some cursed Airui City, some prayed to the sky, and some whispered the names of their family members. .Although the expressions are different, everyone knows that this time, they are dead.
This is exactly what happened.
In the end, all the more than 10,000 adventurers worked hard, but on the toad monster side, there were still a dozen or so that were similar in size to the ground dragon, and one that was as tall as a three-story building.
Just by looking at them, it was clear that the remaining toads were elites. Accompanied by a low and unpleasant croaking sound, they rushed towards the border town of Airei City.
Carter Horton, who was well prepared, did not sharpen his weapons before the battle. He mobilized a powerful team in time to launch a siege against the toad monster.
During this period, more than 2,300 adventurers were killed, including more than 100 national forces.
It wasn't until the toad monsters broke through the seventh town that Carter Horton seemed to be really anxious. He sent an extremely powerful team. After paying the price of twenty deaths and forty-seven injuries, the toad monsters were finally defeated. All destroyed.
But what I didn't expect was that the largest toad monster exploded after its death, shattering its body into pieces and splattering poisonous blood.
This poisonous blood alone killed half of the residents of the eighth town.
Such tragic casualties caused Carter Horton's reputation among the nobles to plummet.
Some people may ask me, why is there no public reputation?
The reason is simple, there is no right to speak.
Finally, Carter Horton published an open letter in the Airy Times, publicly apologizing to everyone in Airy City.
This letter is so heartfelt that it makes people very moved!
From the beginning to the end of the letter, he emphasized in a strong tone that although what he did was slightly inappropriate, it was all for the country and the people!
I originally thought that Carter Horton, who refused to apologize, would be punished by the people, until I saw the results of the public opinion poll, I almost shut myself down - such a shameless scoundrel who refuses to admit his mistakes, 80% of the people in Airey City The civilians of Wu actually chose to forgive, and among them were survivors of the destroyed towns!
It left me speechless.
Due to Carter Horton's reckless behavior, he continuously destroyed your former residence and even killed your family members. However, you were able to forgive him regardless of your past grudges. This kind of "selfless" feeling moved me so much. Got it!
When I saw this news, I held the newspaper and sneered sarcastically.
After the toad monster was eliminated, the source of the disaster seemed to be empty. Even if the exploration team continued to survey and dig, no monsters appeared.
But I still have a hunch that the monsters in the source of the disaster don't stop there. There may be even more terrifying existences deeper in the world, but they haven't been touched yet.
But according to the efficiency of mining in Airui City and Dashai City, it will not be long before a new source of disaster will take shape, and after a short period of peace, panic will fall again.
The source of disaster here has just happened, and a battle report was sent from the coastal area where the ghost train is located, saying that after a week of fighting, 21 people are known to have been killed, 13 people came back alive, and 16 more people are missing.
As soon as she received the battle report, the Fairy Queen patted the armrest of her chair and praised three times: "Good! Good! Good!!!"
In order to allow the people of Moonlight City to live with more confidence, the two queens decided to hold a more grand welcome ceremony. The ceremony was more grand and grand than welcoming foreign envoys!
So the petals paved the ground, goose feathers opened the way, and the overall effect on both sides of the music was really more grand and grand than the effect of welcoming foreign guests.
At the end of the ceremony, all the adventurers came to the main hall to receive their awards. After a brief award ceremony, the Fairy Queen asked them about the battle process. One by one, the adventurers told everyone present about the battlefield conditions they had experienced. , there were even two adventurers who brought back trophies - one was the head of a humanoid turtle, and the other was an exquisite and compact pistol.
The pistol has been appraised by a master. It belongs to the category of automatic pistols, but its power is not comparable to that of ordinary automatic pistols. It is initially suspected that this is a fine product forged through the gun-making method passed down by the Tian tribe, because although it looks small and exquisite, it has Terrible power, or in other words, penetrating power.
As for the head of the humanoid turtle, for the sake of caution, the Fairy Queen summoned a doctor who was proficient in the anatomy of the human body to come to the palace for identification.
The identification results were both unexpected and not unexpected - this is indeed a brand-new creature, but based on skin cells and other materials, it can be judged that it is almost identical to the human skin tissue structure.
In other words, this humanoid turtle monster is probably also a type of human being.
This result made the adventurers present feel uncomfortable. Some adventurers even accused the doctor of misdiagnosis, but they were met with a serious rebuttal by the doctor: "I have been a doctor for so many years, and I already know the structure of the human body well, but similarly, I don't Forget the oath I swore when I was a doctor. I will not talk nonsense, accuse gangsters, and I will not make nonsense or scaremongering. Every word I say has been verified and can withstand scrutiny!"
In front of the Fairy Queen, even the most arrogant doctor will calm down and become honest, as long as he is an Elf or Fairy Tribe.
So it can be concluded that the doctor was not lying.
Since what the doctor said is correct, it means that the ghost train may not actually be a real ghost, because ghosts cannot carry life.
