Chapter 20 The troll is coming
Zixi Town is located at the foot of a mountain peak and has good geographical advantages.
To the east of the town is the Tranquil Forest and the Lami River, to the south is the Purple Tin Mine, and to the west and north are the Blood Plains.
If you look at it from a God's perspective, you will find that to the east of Zixi Town, after the Lami River passes, there is a green world full of woods, while on the other side of the Lami River, there is a plain full of red weeds.
Before the fall of Yihe City, although Zixi Town was in contact with indigenous forces, it was generally stable.
However, not long after the fall of Yihe City last month, Zixi Town was quickly attacked by the natives, and the previous guarding wizard apprentice was killed, causing the situation in Zixi Town to become increasingly uneasy.
The current three hundred soldiers may no longer be enough to cope with the current situation.
To the west of Zixi Town, on the bloody plain more than thirty kilometers away.
At this time, the sun reached its highest altitude, and the hot sunshine caused the temperature here to rise to more than 20 degrees.
There are also a few sprouts of red grass on the ground.
This means that spring has arrived.
Animals and insects on the ground also woke up from hibernation and became active.
"Da da da"
At this time, bursts of running sounds sounded.
If you get closer, you can see several black spots appearing.
Chidi was seen wearing light leather armor and a helmet, riding on the horse named Mahu, and was constantly slapping the horse's butt with a whip.
"Hurry, hurry up, or you'll be caught up."
Behind him, there were four men also wearing leather armor, but under their seats was a red leopard-like mount.
And about fifty meters behind them, there were fifty or sixty gray-clad indigenous people chasing them.
These indigenous people have ferocious faces, wear animal skins, hold long sticks or spears, and are more than two meters tall.
Although it has a humanoid shape, its thighs and arms are slightly longer than humans in proportion to its body.
Taking advantage of their long legs, they can run as fast as the humans with mounts in front of them.
There is even a vague intention of catching up.
They are a tribe of gray trolls, a relatively common race among the indigenous people of the common world.
Possessing extremely strong strength and speed, as well as excellent recovery capabilities.
In terms of individual strength, gray trolls completely defeat humans with weak physiques. However, because gray trolls with extraordinary power are rare in number, they have always been suppressed by wizards and knights.
However, there are no formal knights or wizards among the humans in front of them, so the gray trolls are hunting them down without restraint.
"Grrrrrr!"
At this time, one of the tallest gray trolls let out a strange cry.
As if to encourage them, the other gray trolls immediately showed excited and bloodthirsty expressions, and ran faster.
As you chased me, ten minutes passed quickly, and Zixi Town became visible to the naked eye.
But at the same time, soldiers from Purple Tin Town also discovered Chidi and the Gray Troll.
"Ding dong! Ding dong!"
A series of alarm bells were sounded.
People who were entering and exiting the city gate immediately became panicked when they heard the sound.
"Damn it! Those gray monsters are here again!"
"Hurry into the city, don't go out!"
"People in front of you don't block the way, and move quickly!"
After the indigenous invasion last month, everyone knew that the sound of the bell meant that the indigenous people were coming again, so they all wanted to run into the city.
This caused considerable congestion at the city gate.
But if nothing else happens, everyone can still enter the city and close the city gate before the gray troll comes.
Once the city gate was closed, the lightly-armed gray trolls had no choice but to walk away in despair with the three-meter-high city wall.
But if it ends like this, wouldn't Chidi run away in vain?
So soon, a carriage suddenly overturned at the city gate, and it happened to get stuck on the city gate, making it impossible to close the city gate.
Sumante, who was patrolling the city wall at this time, immediately arrived at the scene of the incident.
"what happened?"
Although he knew exactly what was going on, he still had to ask, and the blame must be thrown away.
I saw the owner of the carriage, a middle-aged man in rich clothes, looking anxiously at the overturned carriage.
"Sir officer, we don't know what happened, but the wheels suddenly fell off, causing the carriage to flip over."
Sumant didn't waste any time and immediately asked his men to move the carriage. However, there were too many people entering the city and the carriage was too heavy to move at all.
At this time, someone beside him seemed to recognize the owner of the carriage.
"Isn't this the administrator's carriage?"
"Yes, the noble emblem on the carriage belongs to the administrator."
"Damn it, what is the administrator doing! He actually let the carriage block the city gate!"
At this time, sharp-eyed civilians seemed to have spotted something shiny on the carriage.
"Oh, my God, there are loads of gold coins on the carriage. There are so many!"
"How is it possible? How can a person as honest as the administrator have so many gold coins?"
"No matter what else, hurry into the city, those big gray monsters are coming soon."
There was not much time left for the civilians. After discovering that it was the administrator and the car full of gold coins, everyone could only crowd into the city immediately.
After all, now that the gray troll is coming, even if the golden mountain is in front of you, it will be of no use.
At this time, no one noticed that Chidi and others who were running in front of the gray troll had disappeared.
On a hillside in the southwest corner of Zixi Town, Chidi panted and looked at the gray troll running towards Zixi Town, showing a hint of worry.
"I don't know if your plan is really feasible."
It turned out that he saw Zixi Town right in front of him, so he ran south.
The Gray Troll saw that Purple Tin Town was close in front of them and that there seemed to be an accident at the city gate, so without thinking, it gave up on Chidi and the others who were running fast and still had fighting power, and ran towards here instead.
At this time, Sumant, who was still at the city gate, saw that it was too late, so he shouted: "Abandon the city gate! Everyone retreats to the city!"
This decision is undoubtedly very cruel.
Because this will cause huge losses and casualties to civilians.
But for the sake of the plan, these sacrifices are necessary.
Soon, the soldiers, under the command of Sumant, began to run into the city.
The civilians at the city gate became the target of the gray troll's venting.
The head of the gray troll, who was more than two meters tall, now had excitement and bloodthirsty light in his eyes.
Then he aimed at the nearest human and waved the wooden stick in his hand.
"Bang! Ah!"
There was a crash and a scream.
Immediately some civilians were shot away, and then they vomited blood.
When the others saw this, they immediately ran around howling like ghosts.
Unarmed civilians are no match for these strong gray trolls. They can do nothing but escape.
The gray trolls that followed closely behind them were like wolves entering a flock of sheep, waving their weapons and killing civilians one after another.
However, under the leadership of the gray troll leader, although the gray trolls were excited, they still fought towards the city in an orderly manner.
