Chapter 55, Night Talk
Leaning against the city wall, panting, the fatigue on his face was clearly visible.
After all, he was not a real dragon, and it was inevitable that he would be exhausted in such a long battle.
Such a battle was not easy either. Many of the scales on Huo's body were rolled up during the attack, and even fell off.
The broken tips of a large number of wooden spears were left in the gaps between the scales and pierced into the flesh.
One of the broken spears that pierced into the chest was even more dangerous.
Those despicable rats attacked without any martial ethics. Even though the scales on his body were quite hard, the scales alone made it difficult for the ratmen to attack.
But the ratmen often attacked at the joints and gaps of the scales, and even stabbed at an angle.
Panting and leaning against the city wall to recover his strength for a short time, Huo stood up again. He stopped the lizardmen's excited carnival after the victory, and began to deploy defenses meticulously.
The injured warriors were taken into the city for treatment according to the severity of their injuries. If they were not seriously injured, they were simply bandaged and remained on the city wall. When counting the wounded, some misunderstandings occurred. It turned out that some lizardmen warriors, although not seriously injured, had their tails bitten off and taken away by ratmen during the battle. These lizardmen warriors whose tails were bitten off by ratmen were very angry, but it was obvious that their tails could not be returned, and they were able to survive, perhaps because their tails were bitten off. After that, the snake archers and dog-headed wizards were sent to the sentry tower, and the lizardmen warriors did not rest and were deployed along the city wall. They began to be on guard, and the braziers on the city wall were lit. The corpses on the city wall were cleared and thrown away, and the pile of siege rat slopes were dispersed by the dog-headed wizard's fireball. After such actions, the solemnity on the city wall was soon restored. It was visible to the naked eye that the lizardmen warriors, snakemen archers, and dog-headed wizards on the city wall were all quite tired. As the first troop to arrive at the Old Qi City, they experienced an extremely difficult battle after a lot of running around, but after winning a glorious victory, they did not even get a rest. If the person who asked them to do this was not Huo, not Huo who led the troops in the front. Then it would definitely cause a lot of resentment. It can even be said that even Huo would be blamed for such behavior. The night fell completely. The soldiers with a little resentment were stationed on the city wall, and Huo looked at the darkness in front of him from the city wall. In theory, although the daytime was a disadvantage for the ratmen, it was when they attacked, and the lizardmen had just arrived and were unstable and had not even completed their defense. Although the night has fallen, the ratmen have to face the city defenders who have already completed their defense. In this comparison, the ratmen in the daytime have more advantages.
But the ratmen in the daytime suffered and fled.
Logically, they should not attack so rashly.
After all, the tall city walls will not be affected by the light and darkness of the day, but for some reason, Huo felt a little uneasy.
This uneasiness made him ignore the feelings of the soldiers and force them to prepare.
Looking at the deep darkness in front of him, Huo thought of the ratman standing on the high platform and behaving crazy.
The leader of the ratman army.
In fact, his uneasiness was right, if he could know some of the internal situation of the ratmen.
This point can be directly confirmed.
The rat war that had been advancing all the way could neither accept failure nor slow down.
But it was precisely because he didn't know that there was a need for gambling.
After a fierce siege, everything around the city was cleared, and the defenders at a disadvantage, although relying on the solidity of the city.
But for a moment, he lost his sense of the surrounding environment.
There was no way to see through the deep darkness in front of him with his eyes, and the fire would not know that the rats who had gone away had returned.
Silently, in the depths of the swamp outside the city.
A sneaky figure came.
And it was not from one direction, but from all directions, gradually surrounding the tall city in front of him.
The sky above the old Qi City.
There was nothing else except the deep darkness, but this darkness was quite normal in the dark night, and it seemed to be no different from usual, and there was nothing unusual.
But if you look at it from the perspective of the gods, the situation in the sky at this time would be very different.
A bright sky curtain, I don’t know when it completely covered the sky of the old Qi City.
This is an extremely wasteful sky curtain, because the entire sky curtain is condensed by the slowly overflowing power of faith, and its function is only simple.
That is to prevent the situation in this place from being spied on by the gods.
This is Du Yuan's strategy to deal with a wealthy guy like Li Sheng.
Yes, I know you have a lot of tricks, a lot of magic cards, and a lot of magic tricks.
But I block the battlefield and people are blocking you.
Then until the dust settles, everyone should not look, observe, or think about using some tricks.
Although doing so makes Du Yuan look like a second-rate guy who comes to cause trouble, it also consumes a lot of faith power.
But it is worth it. After all, paying a little bit of this thing can bring the opponent to the same level. Anyway, Du Yuan himself doesn't have many tricks.
It's better to just let the entire battlefield be handled by the clan.
For example, at this time, after noticing Li Sheng's arrival not long ago, Du Yuan blocked this guy without hesitation.
And completely covered this area with the faith sky curtain.
Li Sheng was furious at Du Yuan's behavior.
But there was nothing he could do.
"Do you think you can defeat me just by relying on that rat man!"
"Then you'll know after trying it!"
At this time, Du Yuan, as he continued to accept blood sacrifices, had officially taken on a group of dim scarlet blood-colored auras.
Even the divine body projected on the clan world was stained with a hint of scarlet.
This gave Du Yuan a bit of a different kind of charm and sense of danger, especially after a fascinating eye pattern with complex and regular lines was added to the center of his forehead.
Du Yuan did not waver at all because of Li Sheng's words.
Since he was ready to trust the rat man under his command, he had to truly trust these guys. After all, as their god, Du Yuan also had a good understanding of how noisy these guys were.
