Chapter 124 Warcraft Siege
Chapter 124 Warcraft Siege
The fourth day of God's love, this is a very special day.
God's Love Day itself is a special day, and the number four makes God's Love Day even more special.
According to the records of God's Year of Punishment, the last beast tide happened on the fourth God's Love Day.
"Boom boom boom..."
Early in the morning, a huge bell echoed in Old Winter City.
"The city lord has an order that all residents of Cold Winter City are not allowed to go out today, and those who disobey will be hanged."
Accompanied by the sound of the bell, one after another sound spread throughout every corner of Cold Winter City.
The beast horde is coming. In order to prevent the residents from causing unnecessary chaos and affecting the resistance to the beast horde, the city lord Caton decisively issued this order.
After hearing the order, the residents were full of despair. No one doubted the authenticity of this order. The order of the Lord Caton has always been the only truth in Cold Winter City.
But……
The residents looked at the snow outside their houses. If the snow was not cleared in time, how could they survive until the next God's Love Day?
The people in the City Lord's Mansion don't care about the residents' difficulties. Their thinking is the same as that of Caton. If they don't clear the snow, at most some residents will die, but if they can't resist the beast tide, everyone in the city will die.
...
Caton attaches great importance to the beast tide, and today he personally went to the west city wall.
The location of Winter City's construction is very good, just between two adjacent mountains.
Ordinary people want to enter the human empire from the sinful forest, only through the city of winter.
Otherwise, you can only cross the steep mountains, but even powerful fighters can rarely cross these two mountains alive.
It is this special location that makes Winter City an important gateway of the human empire.
Also because of this terrain, in the face of the beast horde, Caton could only defend the west wall, and didn't need to care about other directions.
At this time, Caton was standing on the city wall. He was wearing silver armor, a red cloak behind his back, and a silver rapier hanging around his waist, looking like a warrior.
In the Human Empire, a nobleman who cannot use battle qi will be cast aside. This is why, as the nephew of the city lord, Howard's biggest ambition is only on the chamber of commerce.
As the lord of a city, Caton will naturally fight, and today he will personally face the beast tide.
Not for the noble reasons of the residents in the city, but because this Winter City is his Winter City.
Caton naturally wouldn't face the beast tide alone.
Today he has mobilized the entire force of Winter City.
First came the three great knights behind him, and standing on the left were the great knights Wood and Beavis.
Beavis is a white-haired old man who has served the Carton family since he was a child. Compared with a noble-born knight like Wood, Beavis is the person Carton trusts the most.
Standing on the right side of Caton was Yolande Caton. Yolande was not only a great knight, but also his own son, who also won his trust.
In addition, there are a total of 132 knights and 5000 city guards.
The weakest of them was undoubtedly the city guards. They couldn't even move in low temperature, so every few people among them would carry a jar of flint.
This is the Flint Pot developed by the Church. With it, the City Guards can move around the Flint Pot without being affected by the cold. The price is that the Flint Pot will quickly consume the energy in the Flint.
The strength of these city guards is not strong, they are all level 1 fighters, but they are an important part of this battle.
Most of the monsters in the beast tide are low-level monsters. It would only be a waste of energy if the knights and grand knights were to clean them up.
Only by letting the city guards clean up can the best state of high-end combat power be maintained.
It is a pity for Caton that doing so will definitely cause heavy casualties to these city guards.
The city guards are the cornerstone of the Caton family. Every time a meal passes, there will always be talented city guards promoted to level 2 fighters, and these city guards will be knighted by Caton. It can be said that there are no such city guards. The guards did not have the prosperity of the Caton family, and even the great knight Beavis came from the city guards.
Therefore, Caton didn't want the city guards to suffer too many casualties, but in order to defend against the beast horde, he could only do so.
Above the city guards are the knights, they are some powerful fighters of level 2~3, and they are the backbone of the Caton family.
After the knight breaks through to level 4, he is eligible to be named a great knight.
The Great Knight is not only powerful, but also has a detached status. In Winter City, only Caton is qualified to order them.
These more than 5,000 people are the entire combat power of Cold Winter City.
Undoubtedly, it was an extremely powerful force. If Winter City was not a heavy border city, it would be impossible for the king to sit back and watch a city lord possess such a powerful force.
But having mastered such a force, Caton still didn't dare to be careless in the face of the beast tide.
With a serious face, Caton looked in the direction of the sinful forest, waiting for the arrival of the beast horde.
At this moment, a man covered in a cloak suddenly appeared beside Caton and said, "Castle Caton don't need to be nervous. Even if your subordinates can't stop the beast tide, the church will not just sit idly by."
Carton rolled his eyes at the other party, and replied blankly: "Then there is Lord Lao Bishop."
"Hahaha," the man known as the bishop smiled, and then continued: "However, after this, please don't forget the agreement between us."
At this moment, Carton suddenly turned his head to look at the man, and asked suspiciously: "I have never understood why the church must build a church in Winter City. I wonder if the bishop can give me a reasonable explanation?"
The man grinned, "It's not about building a church in Winter City, what the church wants is to build churches all over the world."
At this moment, the man opened his arms, facing the sun, and continued speaking in a fanatical tone.
"We just want to bring the gospel of God to every corner of the world. For this, we are willing to give everything."
Carton glanced at the man again, nodded and then looked away.
He had long heard that the people in the church were abnormal humans, and now it seemed that this rumor might be true.
...
Not long after, a knight galloped towards Winter City on a black boar.
Wild boars are domesticated level 1 Warcraft black scaled pigs.
It is extremely difficult to tame a monster. There are less than 20 monsters domesticated in the entire Winter City. These monsters will not be allowed to be used until the critical moment.
This time, it was also launched for the beast tide.
Apparently, the knight riding the black-scaled pig was the one who went to investigate the beast tide.
The knight quickly came to the city wall. He knelt down on one knee and said to Caton, "Report to the city lord that the beast tide has reached 5,000 meters away, and it will reach Cold Winter City soon."
Caton nodded, then turned his head and ordered to the city guards on the field: "Prepare bows and arrows and catapults."
Bows and arrows have always been precious equipment, and not many people know how to use bows and arrows.
Therefore, only nearly a thousand people prepared longbows and arrows at this time.
This is especially true for the catapults, and there are only ten catapults in the entire Winter City.
