Chapter 2202 (︶)..Devil's food.
After a night of chaos, the sky finally got darker.
Looking at the monastery tower that was corroded and dumped because of the outbreak of the corpses and the undead, watching the remaining evil spirits dissipate under the sunlight, and then looking at the large number of refugees who were sitting in the square of Dunseng, the knights of the Holy Iron Cable Knights who were trying to maintain order and fight against the remaining evil female leader Farnasse and others could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
However, although the demons and evil spirits, those corpses wrapped in countless corpses, looked like sludge monsters, there were evil existences with ferocious and terrifying faces that had completely disappeared or had shrunk underground and no longer threatened, there were still new difficulties waiting for them.
"Report!"
"Captain Farnasse!"
"It's been investigated!"
"Those evils seem to have indeed huddled into the cave under the monastery tower. There are many corpses, many, and layered!"
"They seem to have no movement for the time being, but at night it's uncertain."
Soon, while the refugees and some of the Knights of the Knights of the Holy Iron Cable were resting in a daze and bathing in the morning sun, a knight of the Knights also ran to Farnasse and reported it loudly.
At present, after their heretical judge, "The Blood Cult Mozgos", was completely purified by the magical golden light that broke out by the black swordsman, the power of the establishment is still preserved and the highest position is the leader of the Holy Iron Cable Knights in front of them. Therefore, of course, all affairs here must be handled by the other party with full authority.
"What!"
"Why are there caves under the monastery, and there are so many corpses?"
“Where did they come from?”
Before their commander Farnase could speak, the deputy commander Yasan on the side asked loudly with some dissatisfaction.
"Hey!"
"Yasan, please keep your mouth shut..."
Fortunately, the clerk Selpigao on the side was a wink.
So, before Farnase could scold or blame him, he pulled the other party's arm aside and whispered to the side:
"You don't know the reputation of this condemnation tower!"
"Plus that adult's daily style..."
"Do you can't figure out how those corpses come from?"
The 'that master' that Selpegao said was of course the heretic judge "The Blood Cult Mozgos", but fortunately the other party is dead now, so whether the corpses were made by the other party or not, they would think that they were made by the other party. If they continue to pursue the matter, I am afraid that everyone's faces will not look very good.
Especially the Holy Iron-Cable Knights, which originally belonged to the Dharma King Hall, were not aware of the cave and corpse, but once the matter spreads, they were afraid they would become rats crossing the street!
“…”
The deputy commander, Yasan, was obviously not the kind of brainless person, so after receiving Selpigao's reminder, his face first showed a look of surprise, and then his face turned red in anger, and he gritted his teeth and cursed and turned his head away.
“…”
Looking at his two followers and listening to their conversation, the female leader Farnace on the side did not say anything. She just pondered for a while before looking at the knight who came to report and asked:
"How is the casualties?"
"How many priests are there?"
She knew that the monastery tower had several floors and was not low at all. She was so overwhelmed by chaos last night that the situation was not optimistic.
"The casualties are currently unknown!"
The knight was just right, just saying he didn't know.
"Captain!"
"We don't have enough manpower, so the part we poured in is really unable to clean up and count it in a short period of time!"
"but……"
"The priests who escaped have counted, and fewer than a hundred people are still alive, most of them are more or less injured."
But soon, perhaps seeing Farnasse's very dissatisfied expression, the knight who was worried about being blamed quickly explained.
"That……"
He frowned slightly, and then thought that the other party was telling the truth, Farnasse finally didn't blame him much. He just thought about it before continuing to ask:
“How much food is left in the monastery?”
"The warehouse was not destroyed, right?"
Yes, compared to the caves and the dead people full of caves, Farnasse is obviously more concerned about living people!
Because as long as people are alive, they need to eat!
After the terrifying chaos last night, although there are less than one-third of the remaining refugees here, even if they are less than half, there are still tens of thousands of people in total. If there is no food, most of the remaining people will be starved to death here, which is something she would not want to see.
"Report!"
"The granary is basically intact!"
"Those monsters did not destroy that important place last night, and the entrances and exits were not completely buried when the tower collapsed!"
"We have probably counted that the food should be enough for tens of thousands of people to eat for ten days and half a month!"
The knight thought for a while, then after some thought and calculation, he soon told the rough data he calculated.
"Is it only half a month..."
Hearing this, Farnase couldn't help but be surprised.
You know, there were nearly 100,000 people or even more here, but now, after most of the casualties and injuries, it is only enough to eat for half a month. Isn’t that the original food stored is only enough for the refugees here to eat for three to five days?
Thinking of this, if she wanted the heavy pressure, she finally accepted the heretic judge "The Blood Cult Mozgos" and only gave the refugees a little food every day. She also had a little bit of recognition for the bloody suppression of the refugees when there was a commotion.
Of course, it's just a little bit, not much.
In any case, she didn't quite agree with the cruel and cruel practice of taking human lives and piled up corpses in the caves under the monastery tower. Although it was not a night of harm, it was indeed horrifying.
"Captain!"
"No matter how much food there is, I'm afraid I can't stay here anymore!"
"Just!"
"Under the golden light last night, many sick refugees have recovered from their health. Why don't we move quickly?"
At this time, before Farnase made a decision, the clerk Selpigao hurried over and whispered.
Last night, they were still scared of the horror of those monsters. Although they knew they were afraid of light and fire, they were not sure whether the monsters and evil spirits would come out again tonight, so they felt that it was better for them to take advantage of the morning and set off quickly. No matter where they went, the farther away from here, the better?
"That's right!"
"We don't have the ability of that black swordsman. If those guys come out again at night, it would be dangerous!"
"besides……"
"Captain, look at the weather. Maybe it will rain at night. If there is no fire at that time, we will really have no way to deal with those monsters!"
The deputy commander Yasang, who was standing beside him, also advised him, saying that he did not want so many people to continue to stay in this evil place.
"The key is..."
"The refugees don't trust us very much now!"
"If you don't make a decision quickly, they may be in chaos!"
As he said that, Azan came to Farnasse's ear and said in a low voice, and also signaled the refugees who were entrenched near the execution square with strange eyes to the refugees who were looking at them, the knights.
“…”
Hearing this, Farnasse certainly subconsciously glanced at the refugees around him who were sitting on the ground resting in frustration.
Then she also discovered that there seemed to be some other strange eyes hidden under their faces that had been stabilized because of the disaster, and there was something brewing under the calm surface.
"Report!"
"Captain!"
"Not good!"
Fortunately, at this time, without waiting for Farnasse to make up his mind, a cavalry of the Knights rode his horse and ran over quickly.
"Discover the striker of the Kusha people!"
"A village on the east side was looted. Judging from this, their army is probably less than half a day away!!"
Then, the other party turned over and dismounted until he ran to the front and back and reported loudly.
“!!”
Hearing this, Farnase instantly widened his eyes and took a breath.
"Send the order!"
"Open the granary now!"
"Distribute all the food to the refugees, and then we are ready to evacuate here!"
Then, she hurriedly shouted loudly and said.
Although I don’t know what the Kusha people are doing here, thinking that Mitland’s capital was captured by the other party, thinking that countless princes and nobles and even the new queen of Mitland are missing, Farnasse immediately issued the order she thought was the most correct, that is, evacuate the place as soon as possible!
After all, she didn't think that the little manpower of their Holy Iron Cable Knights would be the opponent of the Kuxia people who were cruel and extremely powerful in combat. In addition, she had just experienced a drastic change, so avoiding the opponent's troops in time became her only choice at present.
"yes!"
"Abide by the order!"
After receiving the order, the knight who had just come to report the situation in the conviction tower of the monastery quickly responded, then turned around and ran to pass the order.
"Captain!"
"Where are we going next?"
"Is it back to the Dharma King Hall to report?"
Seeing the knight running to arrange and the orders began to be conveyed in an orderly manner, and seeing that the refugees on the side began to become a little confused, Selpigao hurried forward and asked.
"No!"
"Don't go back to the Dharma King Hall for now!"
After experiencing what happened last night, Farnasse, who became more and more confused about the existence of the "God" and whether it is justice or not, certainly did not want to return to the place that made her faintly resist and was filled with a group of bureaucrats.
"Then where are we going?"
"The east side was almost occupied by the invading Kuxia people. They would not treat us differently just because we are knights in the Dharma King Hall!"
"on the contrary!"
"They are a real group of pagans!"
When he heard that his leader did not plan to return to the safer Dharma King Hall, Selphigao couldn't help but analyze with some concern.
"Don't go east!"
"Let's go west!"
"Go to that count's territory!"
"There are many troops from the Dharma King Hall there, as well as the lord soldiers who were originally stationed. I heard that the order is very good, so there should be no problem in self-protection!"
That's right!
Farnasse decided to take this opportunity to see the old priest, see what happened to Clater and the others, and by the way, she could also sort out her chaotic mood and faith recently, which was an urgent matter!
"Send the order!"
"The Knights of the Holy Iron Cable will be departing in an hour!"
"Let everyone prepare!"
"in addition!"
"When distributing food, tell the refugees about the Kusha people. If possible, it is recommended that they follow the Knights to move westward!"
After saying that, without waiting for his followers to object or make suggestions, Farnase hurriedly walked towards the temporary command of their Knights.
“…”
“…”
Upon hearing this, Deputy Commander Azang and Secretary Selpigao looked at each other, then drooped their shoulders, gave each other a helpless look before turning around and leaving, each going to do relevant preparations.
...
When the Monastery of Dunsin Tower became chaotic, and when the refugees received more than ten days of food and started fleeing to the west, in a village in the east, Gus soon found a relatively complete and clean house after killing more than a dozen scouts of the Kusha Pioneer who wanted to attack him, and then got in with Cascar and began to make a short stop.
“…”
Looking at Cascarlett, who had been sleeping soundly for more than an hour on the bed, Gus didn't say much, but just leaned on the edge of the other party's bed and closed his eyes.
Although it is not very safe here, he can't take care of it.
Because he was exhausted last night's battle, and Cascar was also scared, so he decided to take a break for an hour or two before setting off and rush back.
“!!”
"who?!"
Suddenly, Gus opened his eyes suddenly and reached out to hold the hilt of the big sword placed beside him.
“Hi~!”
|-)
And when he saw the face of a familiar little girl appearing next to the door, he slowly relaxed and withdrew his hand.
“…”
()
"She is the person you are looking for?"
|˙˙)
“Um…”
(ˇˇ)
"It seems that my brain is indeed hurt, so you have to work harder to get familiar with the Holy Light. It's not easy for her to cure it!"
()°
Then, pretending to look at the dark-skinned sister curled up in sleeping, Annie reminded her as if she was a little adult.
“…”
Gus ignored Anne, but took a deep breath and continued to close his eyes and rest.
"By the way!"
|ω)
"Tell you something!"
(ψｏ▽′)o
"Although you used the Holy Light to dispel a lot of that kind of thing last night, the ceremony seemed to have succeeded. Who seemed to have been resurrected by it!"
(ω)
Then, Annie, who found a random seat to sit down, did not hide it and directly told her some of the situation she discovered last night.
“!!”
Upon hearing this, Gus couldn't help but open his eyes in surprise and asked subconsciously:
"resurrection?"
"Who will it be?!"
Of course he was very clear about what happened last night, and he also saw the scene with deep memory, the broken high wall with five fingers, and the huge symbol that made him unforgettable!
only……
He didn't understand what kind of existence would be the one who was finally resurrected after offering a ceremony of at least tens of thousands of people?
"Then I don't know!"
╮(╯▽╰)╭
"Anyway, they don't care or recognize each other!"
(^▽^)
Yes, in this world, Anne knows people with both hands, so she really can't help with the other party's problem.
“…”
When she heard Anne didn't know, Gus certainly didn't continue to ask questions, but just kept it in her heart, thinking that at most she was just a powerful apostle or a guy like those damn Hands of God.
"Hey!"
☆(o*ω)
"Uncle Gus, do you eat ice cream?"
(ψｏ▽′)o
At this time, Annie, who was sitting a little bored, thought for a while, took out a large square box of cream from the food industry and started eating. Then, she thought about it for a while, and took out two more and threw them in front of each other.
“??”
Seeing the strange thing that was blazing a little cold in the hot summer, Gus subconsciously thought it was some kind of devil's food without thinking, so he turned his head away without even looking.
“!!”
“Cascartes?!”
However, what he never expected was that Cascarlett woke up at some point and did not hesitate to dip a little ice cream in his hand and ate it?
"Wow!"
“It’s delicious!!”
It is obviously not something that Cascarp, a woman with only three-year-old child's intelligence and thinking, can resist. So she ignored Gus's stop and hugged the two large boxes of ice cream, bit Gus' wrist, who was trying to compete for, and then shrank into the corner of the bed and ate it in big mouthfuls.
“….”
Seeing this, Gus, who originally wanted to continue snatching, was stunned. Finally, he pondered for a while, then put away his hands awkwardly, then stared at Annie and walked silently to the stool on the side.
"Here! I'll give you another one?"
(ψｏ▽′)o
Seeing that a poor uncle was not allowed to eat, Annie kindly took out one.
“…”
Unfortunately, Gus was unmoved and just silently took out a piece of hard beef jerky from his backpack and pulled it hard and chewed it hard.
"cut!"
(ˉ▽￣￞￞)~~
"If you don't eat it, you'll get it down!!"
o(^')o
Seeing that the other party was so despicable and so guarded against him, Annie was not very annoyed, just glared at him and ate his own food.
So, in this way, a warm scene like a family of three appeared in the room of an unknown farmer.
Of course!
If you don’t go out to see the outside and the various corpses in the village, maybe that’s really the case?
