The streets of Helmgart were in chaos as hordes of Skaven rushed out of the shadows like a tsunami.
Most of these rat people wore tattered single clothes and only carried some simple weapons in their hands. Logically speaking, humans should not be powerless to resist.
But there are too many rats! There are too many rats. There are hundreds of rat people just as far as Ryan can see with his naked eyes! These rat people are so densely packed that they crowd each other and even kill each other!
"Damn it! What happened?!" Rudolf and Wagner were still putting on their armor with the help of the knight's retinue, and their minds were even a little confused: "Rat man? But... why?"
"Don't ask why, prepare to fight!" Ryan rushed to the door of the hotel, and a psychic storm came up!
The powerful psychic storm swept through all the Skaven in the entire alleyway. The lightning peeled off the flesh and blood of these Skaven from their bones and burned them into a ball of flaming ashes.
Ryan's first psychic storm killed hundreds of Skaven.
"Damn it, what is Count Reinhard doing? Why does he know nothing about such a huge evil army entering his city silently?" Rick's guard Rudolf roared loudly: "
And the defenders! What are they doing?"
"There is obviously something wrong with the defenders. Look in the direction of the military camp!" Wagner put on the breastplate part of the plate armor with the help of his subordinates, and he pointed in the direction of the military camp.
Thick smoke was billowing, and Helmgart's military camp was covered by the thick smoke generated by the explosion. If you think about it for a moment, you will know what happened in the military camp.
"Light of Exile!" The women chatting on the second floor obviously noticed the changes in the city. Veronica poked her head out of the window and raised her hand to cast a powerful lethal spell. Three beams of light were fired into the rat.
There was a huge explosion in the crowd.
The surrounding Skaven were cleared away by Ryan's Psychic Storm and Veronica's Light of Exile, but this was only temporary, the entire city had been flooded by the frenzy of Skaven!
Teresa released an ice wall spell to block the entrance to the alley. Many militiamen tried to resist the Skaven attack, but these sporadic resistances were quickly overwhelmed by the tide of the Skaven army.
Seizing the opportunity, everyone quickly put on their equipment. Sulia didn't understand what was happening: "Skaven? Why are you attacking Helmgart?"
"Helmgart firstly does not have enough food, and secondly, there are no veins of dimensional stone." Veronica put on a fiery red leather battle suit. The Witch of Gloriosa knew a thing or two about the Skaven: "It's really evil.
, Ryan, are you possessed by the God of Desolation? Why is there always fighting wherever you go?"
"These ratmen came well prepared." Ryan did not answer Veronica's question. He quickly put on his sophisticated power armor and raised Thor's hammer: "They attacked the military camp first and quickly defeated the defenders in the military camp.
, we don’t know how much the defenders lost, but as of now… maybe there won’t be too many survivors.”
"Your judgment should be correct." Several people came to the third floor of the hotel: "The town is collapsing!"
There was no more reaction in the military camp except smoke and collapse. The sporadic gunfire was retreating towards the center of the city. The whole city was falling into the attack of the Skaven army, and flames and flames were burning everywhere.
Thick smoke.
"Skaven, what do you want to do in Helmgart?" Ryan frowned. He looked at the panicked hotel owner and asked urgently: "What places in the city can we hold on to?"
"There... there is a barracks, and... there is also the Earl's Castle." The hotel owner was hit by a falling wine bottle and had a lump on his head. He said hesitantly: "These are the two places."
"The military camp has fallen, Earl's Castle?" Ryan shook his head repeatedly: "Impossible! It's impossible for the Skaven in Earl's Castle not to notice! Where else is there, think carefully!"
"Also...there is also the Church of Justice located on the cliff!" The hotel owner thought for a moment and quickly added: "The Church of Justice is located on the cliff on the side of the city wall! It is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the Church of Justice is heavily guarded.
, there are at least dozens of paladins and several battle priests stationed inside!"
"It's a mine on one side and a sewer on the other. It's great! Rudolf, Wagner, and Theresa, you escort the servants and horses, try to gather civilians, gather the defeated army, and call on all survivors and resistance forces to go to the Church of Justice
The cathedral organizes a defense line!" Ryan ordered first.
"Understood!" The two Rick guards nodded in agreement. This is an extraordinary period, and professional soldiers certainly know their priorities.
"Sulia, Veronica, come with me. Let's go to the Red Baiguo Hotel two streets to the west to find Amber." Ryan then said to Veronica and Sulia: "The Witcher can
To determine where the rat warlord is, we must find the rat warlord. Only by defeating the rat warlord can we end this plague. Otherwise, under the command of the warlord, the number of rat armies will be endless."
The ice wall created by Teresa is clanking. Apparently the ratmen outside have discovered that there are humans lurking here, and they are frantically attacking the solid ice wall outside the ice wall.
As a legendary high-level ice and psychic sorceress, Teresa's ice walls are naturally very strong. Both the lowest slave rat soldiers and the clan rat soldiers above are helpless against the ice walls.
Spears and knives can only cut down some ice slag.
But this does not mean that the rat people are helpless against the ice wall.
Amidst the shouts of the rat people, a fire rat appeared.
This fire rat is wearing a suit of armor. He is holding a copper barrel in both hands and carrying a strange device on his back. This device looks like a backpack. There is a huge dimensional stone on the top of the backpack. The device is converting the dimensional stone from the dimensional stone.
Concentrate energy.
Warpstone is a strange ore. The source of this ore is not an ordinary mineral vein, but from the realm of chaos. When the wind of chaos passes through the interstellar portal left by the ancient saints and comes to the mortal world, the powerful chaotic energy
Will condense into warpstone.
Warpstone contains amazing chaotic energy that can be used directly, but it will also cause mutations in the creatures that come into contact with it. Only a very small number of mutations are for the better, such as griffins, and most of the mutations make creatures become better.
Scary and more twisted.
But under these conditions, the Skaven successfully used the energy in the warpstone to carry out a series of technological inventions, such as the dimensional cannon that blew up the Helmgart barracks, and the fire rat in his hand.
flamethrower.
"Human thing, hidden, powerful, Rat Man, use fire, diedie!" Rat Man started the flamethrower, and the flamethrower gathered energy from the dimensional stone and burned the ice wall.
The green warpstone flames are melting the ice wall created by Teresa.
As the rat men yelled, the ice wall melted.
Inside the ice wall are several fully armed figures.
"???" The rat people were a little confused.
"Are you ready?" Ryan emerged from the alleyway first with his war hammer in both hands. Looking at these slave rats and clan rats, he showed a cruel expression towards these rat men.
"The battle has begun."
The heavily armed divine champion Ryan, the heroic female knight Surya, and Veronica in a fiery red leather coat and surrounded by flames appeared in front of the Skaven.
"Drink!" Ryan was the first to rush out, and Thor's hammer swept past. All the twenty or so Skaven gathered in front of him were knocked away. He smashed the fire rat into a ball of rotten meat with one hammer. Su Li
Ya swung the sword of Leonese, and the flames on it burned so brightly that any Skaven who came near her were reduced to ashes.
"Firestorm!" Veronica raised the Staff of Yundini, and the red flame vortex covered the entire block.
The rat tide near Oliver's Inn has been temporarily cleared.
"Divide the troops into two groups and take action!"
"yes!"
…………
Helmgart, Red Bagel Hotel.
The hotel was already in chaos. The huge Skaven were trying to invade this dilapidated hotel. Although the people inside the hotel used tables and wood to try to block the door of the hotel, it was of no avail. Outside the house
There was the sound of sharp tools cutting wooden boards,
"What's going on? What's going on?"
"Where are the Count's troops?"
"Mr. Witcher, please save us!"
The hotel was filled with the cries of women, children and children. People huddled in the corners of the rooms in despair, waiting for death to come.
Demon hunter Abel had a serious look on his face. He held a thin silver sword in one hand and a short blazing gun in the other.
It's a Skaven! The witcher was leaning behind the door, observing the outside world through the gap in the window.
The streets are full of rat-men! These rat-men kill and eat up adults, drag children and young people away, and drag them into sewers and deep ditches, never to be seen again.
Too many! Abel felt cold in his heart. He looked at the tide of rats on the street and tightened his grip on the rapier and blazing gun. Even if the demon hunter was powerful, he didn't know what to do in the current situation.
The Rat Man has noticed the movement in this hotel. Slave rats and clan rats are banging on the door desperately. Inside the hotel, adult males are pushing hard against the door to prevent the Rat Man from rushing into the hotel.
"Mr. Witcher, what should we do?" Many adults desperately asked Abel. At this time, only the Witcher can provide them with help.
"Wait, wait, let me think of a way." Amber's forehead was covered with sweat. He really didn't know what to do. He had already seen the fire in the military camp. How could he count on the defenders in this situation?
to help them?
Although he is a legendary level demon hunter, it is impossible for him to survive such a terrifying scale of rat tide attack. On the ground, on the roof, in the ditch, in the sewer, and on the street, there are all as big as humans.
The Rat Man!
One-on-one and one-on-one are different concepts!
"Dong~dong~dong~" There were a lot of footsteps on the ceiling of the house. It was the sound of the Rat Man digging holes in the ceiling!
"Crack!" A green glass ball fell in from a small hole in the ceiling. The glass ball fell to the ground and broke into pieces. A green poisonous mist suddenly enveloped the entire room.
"Poison balloon!!!" Abel shouted: "Hurry and avoid it!"
It was too late, the hotel was too crowded, people were trampling and squeezing each other, but they still couldn't escape the green poisonous gas.
In just ten seconds, someone immediately began to cough, and red pimples and pustules appeared on their skin. The old man began to have difficulty breathing and could not see.
Another green glass ball fell from the ceiling. Abel knew that the hotel could not be defended. He rolled to avoid the poison balloon and looked intently at the ceiling.
It was a mouse with glowing green eyes, wearing a gas mask and carrying a huge backpack filled with green glass balls.
Abel raised his gun.
"Bang!"
The big rat had blood spurting out from the middle of its head, and it fell from the ceiling and landed on the floor.
It was useless, more rat-men rushed in! These rat-men finally broke through the ceiling and door, and they swarmed up cruelly and cunningly. Although the adults raised crude weapons to fight them, the cunning rat-men did not give a damn to the humans.
Opportunity, every clan rat holding a shield and a knife attacked head-on. Behind and beside it were more slave rats who took the opportunity to sneak attack. In a blink of an eye, the resisting adults were overwhelmed by the rat tide, and the slave rats frantically attacked.
Eating human flesh and blood.
The hotel turned into a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
Abel roared and charged forward. The rapier in his hand accurately picked out the eyes of two slave rats. The demon hunter turned around to avoid a sneak attack and struck out three times with the rapier.
Three slave rats had their necks chopped off, and the demon hunter stabbed them twice, forcing the nearby slave rats back.
It was useless. Although Abel fought hard, there was still a steady stream of ratmen rushing into the hotel. The battle line was retreating every minute and every second. Moreover, under the influence of the poisonous gas, many adults began to ooze pus from their bodies and limbs.
Weak, they were quickly overwhelmed by the tide of rats, and the rats sneered and dragged the children away.
"Damn it! Damn it!" The hotel has turned into a hell of flesh and blood. Abel fought hard in despair, and the rat tide was forcing him into a corner.
At this time, behind the rats, a storm rat holding a halberd and wearing red armor was commanding the rat tide.
"Human thing! Diedie!"
That should be the leader of the rat pack! Abel's mind suddenly turned, thinking of the nature of rats, he decided to take a gamble.
The demon hunter swung his sword to kill the rats surrounding him. He took out a special fire gun from his arms. This fire gun was a rune-enchanted fire gun and was loaded with mercury bullets.
Mercury bullets were very expensive, and Abel had no other choice.
"For Charlemagne! For the empire! For humanity!!!" The fire cannon opened fire, and the projectiles sprayed out roared towards the storm rat.
"Bang!" The Storm Assault Rat's head exploded, and its brains and flesh were sprayed all over the floor. It was killed on the spot by Abel.
"Oh oh oh! Humans, strong, powerful! Skaven, weak, weak!" The effect was immediate. As the Storm Assault Rats were quickly killed, the entire rat group immediately fell into chaos. The slave rats and clan rats had weak courage.
Immediately beaten to pieces, these rats became hesitant to continue the attack.
This is the nature of the Skaven, bullying the weak and fearing the strong, and striving for power. Now, the goal of massacring humans in the minds of these Skaven has been temporarily shaken by the idea of competing for leadership.
It was this hesitation that saved the Red and White Fruit Hotel.
"Flaming Skull!" As a witch shouted, a huge flaming skull swept across the street, and all the ratmen on the street were turned into charcoal under the power of magic.
