Rogge found the Holk College team and said to Lisa: "Lisa, we are rushing to Garin City for support. You will command the college team. Cheer up!"
"Roger...ok, I understand." Lisa nodded.
After hearing this, Glenn asked nervously: "What's going on with Galin? Is Dean Karin okay?"
"I don't know. I can only hope that Dean and the others can escape into Jialin City in time." Kuafeng
"I also need to go!"
"You..." Rogge didn't want Grann to come with him, but looking at the boy's firm eyes, he agreed, "Okay. Xiaona, you come with me too."
Of course, Rogge couldn't leave Elena alone. He was entrusted by Emily to take good care of her, so he had to take the little girl with him to feel at ease.
Elena nodded, neatly mounted her Thunder Eagle Leilin, and extended her little hand to Grann.
The anxious mood prevented the young man from thinking too much. Glenn followed the trend and sat behind Elena.
Charlison flew over on a tame dragon, landed in front of Rogge, bowed to him and thanked him: "Rogge, thank you for rescuing my sister regardless of past grudges!"
Rogge shook his head and said: "I have no quarrel with the fourth princess. It was just a matter of convenience to save her. The loyal knights around her should not lose their lives because of her insistence."
Charlie lowered his head lower and said, "It was my fault for poor supervision. After this disaster, my sister should have realized her mistake."
"It's best this way. Your Highness, the Second Prince, I'll leave this eastern front to you. You must keep the swarm of monsters out of Odens City!"
"Don't worry, I have made arrangements."
The cautious Charlieson was able to say this, which showed that he was really confident. Rogge asked no more questions and bowed before leaving, "Then let's take the first step."
"Where are you going?" Charlieson asked. If Rogge's team could stay and help, it would be much easier for Charlie to defend.
"Go to the north, Garin City."
"I'll have a team of dragon-taming knights escort you."
"No, we can do it faster ourselves. Time is pressing. Your Highness, the Second Prince, please take your leave!"
Rogge flew on the dragon's back, and seven people, one dragon and two spiritual eagles, went against the surging tide of beasts.
…
In order to reach Garin City as soon as possible, Rogge planned to fly diagonally through the Twilight Forest and fly in a straight line.
There are so many magical beasts on the ground, and Rogge estimates that the flying magical beasts in the air are no exception.
They were ready for battle, but unexpectedly found that there were only a few flying monsters along the way, and even in the core area, they didn't see many.
The core area of the Dusk Forest is the kingdom of spiders. Rosnia, known as the "Spider Queen", lives here, and her relatives and people occupy this deep forest.
Giant white webs are spread all over the entire core area, and the giant trees are covered with spider webs, as if they are covered with white frost.
It's simply not a place for other creatures to live, and that's true. Except for spiders, all other creatures in the core area are livestock.
Everyone looked at these giant nets and felt a chill for no reason. This was a psychological reaction to the strange sight they had never seen before.
Everyone carefully passed through the core area covered with spider webs from high altitude. Filia, who hated spiders, breathed a sigh of relief and asked Rogge: "Rogge, why didn't you encounter groups of flying monsters along the way? This is unreasonable."
"This is indeed unreasonable. There must be a lot of birds, butterflies, insects and other flying monsters in the forest. The numbers we see now are too small to be justified."
"Then where did they all go?" Ofina frowned and thought, and suddenly said, "Ah, they won't gather together and do bad things, right?"
Rogge and Filia were both shocked.
The violent monsters in the first stage of infection should not be able to attack specific targets, so the two ignored this. Now that Ofina mentioned it, the two of them thought about it carefully, and it was not impossible.
They can use luring potions to lead the beast tide to the ninth hunting area. As long as someone is willing to guide them deliberately, flying monsters can also gather.
Defense in the air is many times more difficult than on the ground. The Imperial Air Force is not large in number, and almost all of it is now concentrated on the northwest front.
If a swarm of flying monsters in the Twilight Forest attacks, even the majestic city will have a hard time resisting them.
Thinking of the majestic city, Rogge immediately thought of Holk City, the only majestic city in the northwest of the empire.
Everyone knows that the outbreak of the monster wave is affected by the strange magic crystal, which means that there is a strange devil behind it.
Everything has a motive and a purpose. At present, it seems that when the northwest of the empire is attacked by orcs and triggers a tide of beasts, the purpose of the alien demon is to destroy the empire.
Holk City supports the entire northwest front and is the largest and most important military center in the northwest of the empire. If the alien demons and their minions want to destroy the empire, destroying Holk City will be their best choice.
The more Rogge thought about it, the more frightened he became. If the city of Hork was lost, the imperial army gathered in the northwest would lose its support. They would be in danger under the attack from both sides by the orcs and the warcraft group!
Filia was thinking in sync with him, and also thought of this, the anxiety in her heart was written on her face.
"Brother, sister, what's wrong with you?" Ofina saw that the two of them looked wrong and asked hurriedly.
Rogge replied: "I'm afraid that Holk City is in danger, and the flying monsters may have gone there."
"Ah? Oh, that's right. The most important cities in the empire are Hork City and Odens City. If there is no Odens here, then they must have gone to Hork City!" Ophina's analysis was simpler and more direct. , and it does make sense.
"Although there are not many defenders in Holk City now, they are certainly not bad at reconnaissance. They should be able to discover and prepare early." Rogge said.
Filia was still worried and said: "Even if Holk City is prepared, there are so many monsters, and they are all flying monsters, so it may not be easy to resist."
"It won't be easy, but we will be able to sustain it in a short time. There are Dean Anderson, Duke Erwin, and Emperor Charles over there. They will be able to find a way." Rogge comforted.
"Well." Filia took a few deep breaths and calmed down, "We have no choice over Hulk City, but we must defend Garin City! The longer we can hold off the wave of monsters on the ground in Garin City, the more likely Huo Ke will be. The less pressure there will be on Erke City!"
"That's right. Canxing, faster!"
"You!" Canxing let out a long groan, and the dragon wings flapped vigorously, leaving the two spiritual eagles some distance away and flying ahead.
One day later.
Canxing finally passed through the Twilight Forest, and Rogge and Ofina couldn't wait to look at the place where they grew up.
Jialin Orphanage, no, now it should be said that it is the ruins of Jialin Orphanage, just appeared in their sight.
The low walls have long since disappeared, and the houses that are not very exquisite but very warm have all collapsed. Even the imperial flag in the training ground that has never been lowered can no longer wave due to the broken flagpole.
The flag was trampled into the soil by the monster. The giant footprints of the monster were right next to it. The flag was twisted, just like everyone's current mood.
This was originally their paradise, but now it has been destroyed by this disaster and turned into ruins.
However, it is not important that the wall collapses and the house is destroyed. What is important is that people cannot die.
Rogge noticed that there was not a single body in the entire orphanage, nor was there any trace of blood.
This means that when the monster comes, everyone in the courtyard has already retreated.
Rogge and Ofina breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. If people are not dead, then there is still hope!
Now everyone has only one goal - Jialin City.
…………
Garin City.
The capital of the Earl of Garin, which is a large city, is under fierce attack from a swarm of monsters.
Different from the situation at the Ninth District Defense Line, although Jialin City received the news in advance, time was too tight and could only gather villagers from surrounding villages and people outside the city into the city, and could not make other arrangements.
So the moment the gates of Garin City were closed, the battle began.
The swarm of monsters frantically attacked the city gates and walls. Fortunately, the city walls of the Nalan Empire were built high and thick. The walls were shaken off, but the walls remained strong, keeping the swarm of monsters at bay.
Like the soldiers in the Ninth Hunting Area, the Garin City defense army was in a panic at first and did not organize an effective defense at all. They relied on the city wall to survive the first wave of the most ferocious attack, and then recovered.
The defense preparations of big cities are still very reliable. Rolling stones and trees will come out, fire and oil will be poured out, and magic will be unleashed!
Facing the dense swarm of monsters, the soldiers didn't need to aim, they just threw things. For a while, the roar of the monsters echoed throughout the city.
The defense machinery on the city wall also started to operate, the crossbows fired continuously, and the boulders thrown by the trebuchets whizzed past, crushing the monsters into pulp.
The survival of the city is related to the lives of everyone in the city, and no one can live alone.
At the call of the city lord, Earl Webster, the strong men and women in the city formed a militia, mainly responsible for transporting supplies and throwing rolling stones and wood.
The liberated warriors picked up heavy crossbows and fired at the monsters, which was very lethal.
There are many adventurers in big cities, and they are also temporarily recruited into the army to form a team with stronger combat effectiveness.
The adventurer teams were deployed by the commander at various key locations on the city wall, greatly enhancing the defensive power.
People in the whole city took action, people were united, and the monsters didn't seem so scary anymore.
But as time went by, the city lord, Earl Webster, discovered that things were not that simple.
The warriors will be tired, exhausted, and need to rest, but the number of the monsters will not decrease at all. Their attacks will still be crazy and will not give the warriors time to breathe.
The number of monsters in the group has actually decreased. From the corpses of monsters piled up under the city wall, it can be seen that the city defense army has killed a number of monsters equal to the number of the army, but it is not enough.
The two sides are not equal in magnitude. This is the most fundamental and basic gap.
The rolling stone wood mixed with the corpses of the monsters formed a platform, a platform that the groups of monsters could use to attack the city.
The soldiers had to confront the hordes of monsters head-on, and the battle to defend the city turned into a fierce hand-to-hand battle.
The appearance of several big guys in the distance made the anxious battle situation take a turn for the worse.
