Dawn of the Ash Tower

Chapter 63 Escape


.,

Not only Lothar, but Leon and Elsa, who acted separately from Cheese, also encountered native ratmen who frantically flooded into the town.Fortunately, the bear hunters and the Kingdom Knights, which were the positive resistance forces, attracted most of the rat people's attention.This made it possible for the two to cross the war zone.I got a one-handed sword from the corpse of an unlucky bear hunter nearby. Leon's previous armor and weapons were all confiscated before the trial. Not having a suitable weapon is also a big deal for the knight commander and the proprietress. The problem.

"No, I can't get through here!" Throwing the short sword in his hand, the one-handed sword turned a perfect circle in the air and hit the head of a native rat man.Beside the skaven who had suffered a headshot were three other skaven who tried to attack the two of them.It's just that now they have also turned into corpses lying on the remote streets of Zhuoliu Town.In this narrow passage that was not guarded by human soldiers, the blood lion could see multiple ratmen moving along the shadows between the buildings with his eyesight.It is probably impossible to walk through this narrow passage without disturbing them.

"Then what should we do? There are bear hunters and knights on the avenue, it is impossible for them to escort us to the quarantine area!" Elsa was also very anxious at this time.Although she is still worried about the safety of the cheese, it does not mean that she is indifferent to the life and death of her companions in the quarantine area.However, the current situation is that although the number of Ratmen is less and less in places farther away from the frontal battlefield after two people's observations, these Ratmen have at least maintained the habit of moving in groups of three or five, which makes Leon and the others have only two people. Personally, it becomes very dangerous to fight these ratmen rashly.

The knight commander frowned and thought for a moment. He walked to the corpse of the ratman and pulled out the sword stuck in the corpse's head, and said.

"The safest way now is to leave the town from the west of Zhuoliu Town first, and then make a detour to the quarantine area."

"But without these buildings, wouldn't we have no place to run if we encountered the Ratmen?" The proprietress questioned the knight commander's thoughts.

"No way, although we really can't hide our tracks outside the town, but the same is true for those ratmen. If we must pass through the town, we have to face not only the enemies on the ground." Leon He raised his head to indicate that the roof might also be an ambush point for the Ratman. Although he hadn't seen this before, it was very possible from the Ratman's body that was good at climbing.

"Damn it, why are these ratmen acting like crazy? If only they had the same sense as those sober people we met in Valley City." He cursed in a low voice, which also shows that under the current situation, Al Sha knew that what the knight commander said was the only feasible way.Since the current purpose is to leave with companions who may still be in the quarantine area, they must reach the quarantine area safely.

Seeing that the proprietress agreed, Leon identified the general direction from the angle of the sun, and then led Elsa carefully through the seemingly safe roads towards the west of Zhuoliu Town.But on their way forward, they would run into Ratmen wandering the streets from time to time, and judging from the shadows flying over their heads, there might actually be many more Ratmen here than they saw. many.

"Strange." Taking advantage of those Ratmen not paying attention, the two cleverly passed through a not too spacious street through the protection of the bunker. When they hid in the shadow of the alley again, Leon whispered .

"What's wrong?" asked the proprietress.

"These ratmen seem to be passing through Zhuoliu Town consciously." The knight commander replied in a deep voice.Indeed, as Leon said, the native ratmen they met on the road did not blindly search for living people to attack like other compatriots. Passing through the unguarded Zhuoliu Town while intoxicated.

Elsa grew up with the Frost Guards since she was a child, and those old soldiers talked about various battles and tactics in the tavern besides bragging, so although the proprietress was not interested in these military strategies, she still listened to them to some extent. Seeing that she had some military foundation, now that she heard what Leon said, she quickly realized what these Ratmen were doing.

"You mean they deliberately attack the army with all their strength outside the town, but they are actually protecting these ratmen from the blockade while fighting?"

"I'm afraid that's the case. No, I have to go back and warn Lothar. He probably hasn't noticed this yet." Elsa's words were exactly what Leon was worried about. It's just a faction competition within the Knights. As a knight, Leon felt that he had an obligation and had to go to the Earl of Montenegro. Some Ratmen escaped from his blockade during the battle.And these ratmen will undoubtedly bring the plague virus to places outside the Earl of Saron.At that time, it will not be as simple as a regional plague.If this dangerous plague spreads, the entire Cangshi Kingdom will fall into terrible disaster.

"But will the Earl of Montenegro believe your words? Although he helped us, after all, he was still presiding over our trial just now." Of course, the proprietress couldn't understand the thoughts of the knight commander. Lothar's behavior somewhat prevented him from standing on the opposite side of his group, but it might be impossible for the Earl of Montenegro to believe without reservation based on Leon's words alone, and it would also make Leon fall into Gregory's position again. hands.

"No matter what, I have to go. I can't let this dangerous plague spread. You have to know, we are only facing the infected people in one county. Once the plague spreads to the entire kingdom... I can't imagine what will happen What kind of scene will it bring?" Imagined that the entire Cangshi Kingdom would become a victim of the plague, and the knight commander found that he might not be able to express the horror in words.Fortunately, his expression and tone have already infected the proprietress. Elsa also knows that if the plague is not blocked in the Earl's Land, Longji Mountain will be captured by these ratmen sooner or later. In this battle, human beings have no capital to divide .

"Okay, I will go to the quarantine area to bring our people out according to the path you pointed out earlier. And Lord Leon, I will leave it to you to convince the Earl of Montenegro to catch these fish that slipped through the net." Elsa single-handed Touching her chest, this is the first time she has given formal etiquette to the knight commander. Although her knight etiquette is nondescript, and she is not a knight herself, the proprietress' meaning has been well conveyed.

"I see, leave it to me. It's you, I promised the cheese to protect you from here, you must leave safely, otherwise I'm afraid I can't explain to him." The knight commander warned.

"Don't worry, we Northlanders are different from those noble ladies. These mice can't stop the next girl." Squeezing out a confident smile, the proprietress is still confident in her skills.

Without further words, Leon nodded and left in reverse.Watching the knight commander leave, Elsa knew that she had to rely on herself for the rest of the way.As she herself said, as a woman from the Northland, she is fundamentally different from those women in the kingdom who can only do housework.After adjusting her breathing, the proprietress looked back at the direction the cheese left when she left the dark alley.

"You must come back alive."
