Chapter 34 Chaos on the Eastern Front
Author: Liyou
Groups of demon wolves formed a 'V' shape and surrounded and hunted the refugees. Their feet were muddy, and the bloody wind in their mouths rushed towards humans. The larger demon wolves can often bite the cervical vertebrae with one blow. On the road in the rainy season , was soon covered by pools of blood.
In the chaos, there were more than a dozen people riding tall horses behind the demon wolf, waving long whips, pointing at the fleeing crowd and laughing and mocking them. There were also servants following, carefully searching for the belongings on the corpse.
"Sir, look over there." The scout in the team had the sharpest eyes, and he could see the carriage in the distance at a glance.
The leading man wore the standard armor of the Kingdom's army, with a knighthood medal shining brightly on his chest. He sat on a strong horse and looked into the distance.
"There are really people who dare to come to the border who are not afraid of death." The man who looked like a deputy pulled the reins and controlled the horse. In his eyes, anyone who dared to come to the Eastern Front to confront the Demon King's army was mentally ill.
"The only ones coming to the Eastern Front at this time." The leading man thought for a moment, "The only ones who come to the Eastern Front are those adventurers with their heads tucked into their belts."
"Sir, I heard that adventurers are very rich. Look, our brothers don't even have any decent armor. This time." The scout's eyes were clear and he already regarded the carriage in the distance as a fat sheep.
"Ha~ You are a brainless idiot. If you dare to come to the Eastern Front, there must be at least senior adventurers such as Silver in the team." The leading man waved his hand, "Recall the demon wolves, let's retreat!"
"Sir," the scout said unwillingly, "the number of people fleeing the city is getting smaller and smaller. Let's grab one group and lose one group."
"withdraw!"
When the demonic wolves heard the horn, they released their flesh and blood from their mouths and evacuated the group of people like a black whirlwind into the forest, leaving only a scene of hell.
At this time, the front end of the escape team that stretched for several miles had come into contact with Noelle and others.
The faces of the oncoming crowd were sallow, and most of them were skinny and skinny. There were almost no young adults in the team, but mostly old people and children. They saw carriages parked on the roadside, and lions in armor. The Wolf Fang Team didn't know whether to retreat or advance.
"Masters, please do well. We have no money at all. Please let us go!" An old man was the first to hold on. He knelt down in the mud and violently knocked on Orton and others.
Before Orton could help him, another voice broke out from the crowd:
"No one is allowed to live anymore! Everyone rush! There will always be someone who can escape!"
After hearing this, the first person rushed out, but Orton did not stop him. Then the fleeing crowd just rushed out with the momentum of thousands of troops. Orton watched helplessly as the old man not far away was trampled to death by the crowd. .
The carriage horses were frightened and ran sideways. The coachman tried his best to control the carriage and barely managed to keep the carriage from overturning.
Nita dragged Noelle, and the Lion Wolf Fang team could only keep retreating to the roadside when faced with the impact of the violent group of refugees. Even so, they were gradually enveloped by the huge flow of people.
"These people are all crazy!" Nita cursed.
Noelle frowned. With her height, she had no choice but to stand on tiptoes and look into the distance. The place that caused the commotion in the escape team had long since disappeared from the shadows of monsters and humans.
"They ran away." Noelle looked back and looked at the crowd of people who were still running desperately in front of him, feeling a little depressed in his heart.
Serena followed closely behind Noelle, hugging the staff tightly, not knowing what to do.
If it were an attack by the goblin swarm, she believed that the strength of Noelle and the captain would kill all the monsters. However, in a group of refugees dominated by humans, they could only bravely face this attack.
impact.
Fortunately, the refugees were not stupid. There was a vacuum around the Lion and Wolf Fang team, and no one dared to provoke them.
Auton seized the opportunity, like a crocodile hunting prey in the river, and grabbed a running thin young man.
The young man's face was pale, and when he was picked up by Orton, he was still running around in disorder until Orton placed him in the center of the team.
Even though he was surrounded by three beauties with their own characteristics, the young man couldn't help trembling all over. He squatted down directly with his head in his hands and said in a trembling voice: "Don't, don't kill me. I have nothing on me and my meat doesn't taste good."
, it’s sour, and the devil wolf will have diarrhea if he eats it.”
Nita frowned, she couldn't bear to see people like this. Just as she was about to scold him, Noelle stopped her.
The girl straightened her skirt, squatted next to the young man, and said softly: "Don't worry, we are adventurers from the capital. Has the Demon King's army conquered the eastern city?"
The gentle female voice and the faint scent of roses around him brought the young man back to his senses until he saw the white porcelain adventurer nameplate hanging around Noelle's fair neck.
The tall and round figure looming under the nameplate made the young man gulp down a gulp of saliva. He immediately looked away and looked at the mud under his feet, not daring to reply.
"Let you talk." Nita kicked the young man's knee impatiently.
"Okay, okay" the young man said quickly: "I don't know. Everyone said that the Demon King's army will break through the defense line sooner or later. The people in our city have not yet received relief food. I saw that everyone ran away, so I ran away too."
"What's going on with the magic wolf behind?" Noelle asked.
"Listen, I heard that he was raised in the coalition army."
"Don't talk nonsense!" Nita put her hands on her hips and looked down at the young man, "No matter how corrupt the coalition forces are, they will not let the demon wolves they raise attack the crowd."
"Yes, yes," the young man whispered: "But the one who led the robbery was a knight of the kingdom in the coalition army. I saw the medal on his chest with my own eyes!"
"The situation on the Eastern Front is very complicated." Orton looked coldly at the people who were still fleeing. His tall figure, dark and tight armor, and the heavy sword on his back gave the refugees around him a great intimidation.
, if this were not the case, who would care about a few petite, seemingly incompetent adventurers.
"Hmph~" Nita recalled the girl knight she met when she completed the commission for the remnants of the Demon King's Army, and did not forget to ridicule, "Looking at the character of that Marquis sister, you can tell how well the Marquis on the Eastern Front is managed."
"Then are we still going?" Selina asked weakly.
Nita and Orton's eyes focused on Noelle.
"We're almost there, why don't you go?" Noelle stood up, her skirt hanging down to cover the area above her knees.
"Where are you going?" Noelle asked the young man.
"Me, me?" The young man looked around, "I don't know, I just ran with everyone. Maybe when I got tired of running and encountered a town, we stopped."
Seeing that everyone was silent, the young man gradually became bolder, "I advise you not to go to the Eastern Front. A few days ago, the Demon King's army tore a gap in the Eastern Front, and many people died in the city. If you stay on the Eastern Front, sooner or later you will be
Devoured by monsters.”
"Okay, it's none of your business, get out of here." Nita kicked the young man's butt again and pushed him into the crowd of people fleeing.
"Little Noelle, then we."
Nita suddenly noticed that Noelle's green eyes were focused on the group of refugees.
"Someone is watching us."
