At this time, the best embodiment of this is the war legionnaires shivering around the fire on the city wall of Nuuk.
Before it snowed yesterday, they thought Narant was a monkey specially sent to make them happy.
But as it got colder and colder, they realized that they had become monkeys.
If they had known that Nalant would use this trick, they would have prepared enough wood no matter what to keep their clothes dry, and they would not be exposed to the rain even if they were naked.
In addition, I tried every means to make the ceiling above my head watertight.
But now it's too late.
The strong but simple roof above the head can protect against powerful thunder and lightning, but it cannot protect against the silent rain that moistens everything.
Those drops of rainwater dripping from above, as long as they fall on a person, it is as if someone has stuffed ice cubes into their arms in the cold winter and is still cold.
What's even scarier is that their wood won't last long.
Even though they had gone to the city to search in advance yesterday, most of the buildings in the city had been submerged by that time, especially those ordinary civilian houses.
The ones that remain are basically where some wealthy families live.
However, most of the roofs of the houses where wealthy families live are paved with stone slabs to make them more durable and stronger.
On the contrary, only ordinary civilians use cheap thatch boards as roofs because they have no money.
As a result, the wood they are looking for is a drop in the bucket and simply not enough for millions of people.
At this time, the war legion commander looked at the condition of the soldiers around him and frowned deeply.
The wood is only enough to last for a day or two at most, and I'm afraid all the wood will be burned by tomorrow evening.
By then, let alone the enemy coming to attack, I'm afraid they will all be frozen to death.
But now facing the still steady snowfall, he had no choice.
As time turned to the second day, the snow on the walls of Nuuk City became thicker, and as the wood decreased, many soldiers of the War Legion had their lips turned purple.
Even in order to prevent these soldiers from freezing to death by staying where they are, the war legion commander had already issued an order that every hour, the soldiers must get up and exercise for five minutes.
Of course, even so, it can only barely keep from freezing to death for the time being.
But if there is no campfire in the end, I am afraid that even if they exercise around the clock, they will not be able to withstand the cold.
"This God of War can hold his breath and hasn't chosen to evacuate yet?"
Nalant sat leisurely on a high platform temporarily set up in the camp, with a table in front of him filled with delicious food.
What surprised him was that the God of War in the city was actually prepared to hold on, unlike the God of Waves.
"Lord Nalant, if only those guys didn't leave, and they all froze to death in Nuuk City, it would be easy for us!"
"Yes, it would be better to freeze these intruders to death!"
At this time, the Acropolis commanders around Nalant spoke.
"Haha, I'm afraid he won't die from the cold. It can only be said that the God of War has not suffered as much as the God of Waves, so he is still a bit arrogant."
"But I believe that after he experiences the rain and snow duet I gave him this time, he will have a long memory in the future!"
"Okay, you guys, after you finish eating, hurry up and guard the front to avoid any accidents!"
Narante waved his hand.
…
In the middle of the night, the fires on Nuuk began to gradually dwindle. It was not that the war legionnaires felt cold anymore, but because, as expected yesterday, the wood had burned out.
"Ah, the wood is burned out, what should we do?"
"Yeah, what should we do?"
As frightened words rang out, chaos suddenly appeared on the walls of Nuuk City.
Some soldiers whose fires went out immediately ran outside the fires of other teammates to keep warm together.
But the fire is only so big after all, and when there are more people, those around it will naturally not feel the warmth.
In this way, everyone wants to get close to the fire source, which will inevitably lead to crowding and pushing.
If they didn't have enough discipline, maybe Nalant hadn't come to attack yet, and the war legion would have had to fight first.
Of course, even so, the remaining fires would not last long, after all, the amount of wood they used was almost the same.
Under such circumstances, some war legionnaires used their wisdom and finally thought of a way.
That is to dismantle the overhead ceiling and burn it.
After all, it is made of thick wooden piles. If it is burned, it will not be a problem to keep it for a day or two.
As a result, soon some war legionnaires removed the wooden stakes from the roof and used them to set fire to the building.
At first, because they were worried that the captain and commander would punish them if they found out, they were cautious and only removed some.
But later, as more and more people knew about this method, more and more people followed suit.
As a result, the ceiling, which had taken a lot of effort to build, was completely demolished before it could play its role.
As for what to do if the Nalant army outside the city attacks them with lightning.
The soldiers of the War Legion didn't care much at all at this time.
Even if the enemy does attack them with lightning, it is better to be struck to death by lightning than to be frozen to death.
Naturally, this matter was soon known to the commander of the War Legion.
The ceiling was almost removed, it would be strange if he didn't know.
After learning about this incident, the war legion commander was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Immediately, he reported the matter to the God of War without stopping.
"Lord God, the soldiers took the initiative and took down all the originally built ceilings and used them to make fires for warmth."
"I feel that this may be very dangerous, so I would like to suggest to you whether we should retreat immediately!"
The leader of the war legion had actually known for a long time that since it started to snow, his gods would definitely choose to evacuate.
It's just that leaving in despair is a shameful thing after all, so my own god wants to delay it for a little longer, so as to maintain a little face.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! At least it can ensure that the legion does not suffer losses.
But now it's good. Originally, the soldiers were expected to be able to hold on for a day or two, but now they can't leave.
Because as the roof disappears, the shameless Nalant outside the city is likely to launch a lightning attack on them.
The losses will be huge by then.
After hearing this, the God of War's eyes twitched slightly, and finally he had to say in a deep voice: "Order the evacuation!"
"Yes, Lord God!"
Upon hearing this, the commander of the war legion responded and immediately went to take care of things.
And in order to prevent the enemy from detecting and unexpected evacuation, he did not choose to blow the horn, but chose to let the legion captains give orders verbally.
When the war legion chose to retreat, Nalant actually received the news immediately.
Moreover, how could he not see such an obvious thing as the roof on the city wall being torn down?
So he immediately gave orders to the talented girls.
And as Nalant's order was issued, rumbling explosions immediately sounded in the city of Nuuk.
Then I saw streaks of lightning falling from the dark clouds.
"Damn it! Damn it, Narante, you bastard!"
On the wall of Nuuk, the leader of the war legion saw the lightning striking down, and knew that the scene he least wanted to see had appeared, and he was immediately angry and cursed.
But scolding and scolding, even if you greet everyone in the Nalant family now, it will not help.
What he needs to do most now is to get the soldiers to evacuate as quickly as possible!
The evacuation took more than two hours, and that was because Nalant did not stop him.
As the city of Nuuk was evacuated, the faces of all the war legionnaires looked as if they were from another world.
Because we were only a mile away from Nanook City, the temperature had already risen by more than half.
