Chapter 42. The long wind has flown eastward 4

"You came?"

Nightmare rubbed his face and drew dots on the map in front of him from time to time. He only glanced at Zhou Jinru, who was rushing over.

There were several burly and tall subordinates behind him. When they saw a stranger coming, they looked at each other and kept their mouths shut.

Who is this person, and why does Lord Nightmare value him so much?

"Now that everyone is here, I'll make a long story short. The leak in the sewer has been blocked. If Mr. Fourth hadn't discovered it in time and issued a warning, we would have been attacked by the enemy without even knowing where the enemy came from. You have to thank him.

"

"Thank you, Mr. Si!"

Everyone said in unison.

Zhou Jinru said nothing. He was wearing a mask, so no one could tell.

The nightmare then added: "The enemy has discovered the loopholes in the Eternal City. They will rush to break the fortress. This is our crisis. In any case, it will be delayed until noon tomorrow before the circulation system will resume operation. I don't care what you usually have

What a contradiction, there is no room for failure when it comes to defending the city!"

"Don't worry, Lord Nightmare!"

"Let's go and do our own business!"

Everyone dispersed, leaving Zhou Jinru and Mengmeng alone.

The Kuranta man narrowed his eyes: "Do you think my subordinates are strong?"

"Bright and bright, a warrior capable of hundreds of battles."

"This is a bunch of idiots! If you want them to mount their horses and charge, they are all heroes. If they really want to discuss city defense, even if they are tied together, they will be attacked by the enemy!"

Zhou Jinru said nothing.

Nightmare can curse, but he can't say anything.

"I'll leave the southeast wall to you. I know you can do it. Don't refuse. Just help me."

Zhou Jinru did not answer directly, but asked: "Will the circulation be restored at noon tomorrow?"

Nightmare hummed: "It's about this time. As long as it returns to normal, those twisted creatures won't be able to leave the Eternal City even if they are ten times more numerous."

"I will buy you enough time."

Zhou Jinru turned around and left.



On the city wall, a new round of offensive has been launched. Twisted monsters piled up like mountains, using their bodies to send their companions up the city wall. Soon the battle moved to the entire city wall.

When Zhou Jinru arrived, he collided head-on with a giant twisted creature that rushed towards the city wall. Without saying a word, he gathered his weapons and rushed over, pushing down the city wall together with the monsters covering behind him.

"This way!"

He was like a firefighter, going wherever there was a loophole. Soon there were more than a dozen soldiers gathered around him, patrolling the southeast wall.

"Look, the city gate is open!"

Suddenly someone shouted.

Zhou Jinru looked in the direction of the shouting and saw a large number of cavalrymen in full armor filing out. The vibration of the horses' hooves on the ground could be felt even on the city walls.

These cavalry faced twisted creatures all over the mountains and plains. They quickly lined up at the city gate, and their numbers and momentum were far more powerful than what Zhou Jinru had seen in the Baisha settlement.

The low horn echoed in the air, long and thick.

"Line up!"

The cavalry commander raised his weapon, and rows of cavalry raised their spears in unison.

"charge!"

Boom boom boom!

Standing on the city wall, Zhou Jinru saw such a large-scale cavalry charge for the first time, rushing towards the twisted creatures several times their size without hesitation.

The sharp spears used the impact of the horses to easily tear apart the giant twisted creatures. They kept moving forward. Even though their companions fell from the horses around them, nothing could stop the charge.

Several weapons picked up the giant creatures and threw them heavily. The cavalry urged the horses. Directly in front of them were purple flower bones with a radius of more than five meters. There were many of them, and they seemed to be brewing something.

A cavalryman brandished a spear and pierced it straight into it. It was like popping a bubble, and the dark purple liquid flowed out instantly. The next second, the entire flower exploded, and the terrifying power swallowed up the cavalryman two meters away.

Almost at the same time, purple flowers exploded one after another on the entire battlefield.

Zhou Jinru saw clearly that instead of engaging in dull street fighting in the city, this cavalry team should go out to exert its maximum power and clear out the flowers and bones that pose a huge threat to the city wall.

"What are you afraid of? If you die, you will die. You will just wake up at noon tomorrow."

The people of the Eternal City have been experiencing such battles, and death is just a process for them.

Not a single cavalryman retreated. After they smashed into pieces the twisted creatures in front of the city wall, they rushed to a farther position without hesitation. No one wanted to come back alive.

This move greatly reduced the pressure on the city wall.

Dusk seemed to freeze at this moment. Just as the nightmare had said before, the fortress entered the darkest day and the road to the outside world was blocked.

"Now it's our turn!"

A new round of offensive has arrived. The twisted creatures below are endless, violently attacking the city wall, and the entire defense line has become shaky.

Zhou Jinru stepped on the twisted creature and kept releasing lightning spells with his hands. In an instant, the silver snakes danced wildly and knocked down all of them.

Compared with narrow environments, thunder method is more suitable for use in wide areas, especially when facing dense enemies.

"Thank you for your help, brother. Which department are you in?"

A soldier picked up his hat from the ground in embarrassment. He thought he was going to die just now. Unexpectedly, an adventurer suddenly appeared and killed the nearby twisted creatures in a few seconds, solving his urgent need.

Zhou Jinru said quickly: "I am from the southeast city wall, and you are the only one here?"

The soldier grabbed his hair and struggled to throw away the mucus-stained hat. He did not yet have the courage to put it on his head.

"Yes, there were eleven of us before."

Eleven people could not block the tidal wave of attacks from the twisted creatures, especially when there was an elite leader among them.

"Abandon the city wall. Leave now and defend the city. Someone will tell you what to do."

One person would definitely not be able to defend a city wall that was more than a hundred meters long. Zhou Jinru was not surprised at all that the city wall fell.

After stopping the cycle, Nightmare has limited power at hand. In order to buy enough time, it will inevitably abandon the long city wall defense line and instead concentrate its efforts to build a defense line in urban areas with more complex terrain.

The soldier took his weapon and was about to leave. Seeing that Zhou Jinru was not leaving, he hurriedly asked: "Brother, where are you?"

"I'm fine, please leave quickly, it will become very dangerous here soon."

His guess was correct. The cavalry rushing out of the city tried their best but could not wipe out all the purple flowers. Some of the fish that slipped through the net reappeared and kept approaching the city wall.

The large-diameter flowers slowly bloomed, the petals unfolded one by one, and the stamens contracted rhythmically. The coquettish flowers aimed at the city wall and "spit" out a ball of deep purple light at an extremely slow speed.
