Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1034: Tu Zhen

"That's Guna, the doctor in our town. She's young and beautiful. The boys in town are all attracted to her. Unfortunately, Guna didn't see anyone." The old mayor hissed and sighed, "It's not easy to talk about this child. He moved to our town with her father a month ago." Within a week, his father had been bitten to death by a wolf while hunting in the mountains, leaving Guna alone. Fortunately, the child was quite knowledgeable in pharmacology. Every day when they go up to the mountains to pick herbs, no matter how sick or hunted, they don't have to go to other towns to get a doctor. "

Alan nodded. His mother Lanny was also a doctor in Gobi Town. He knew very well how important a doctor was to a small town with inconvenient travel. In the evening, the mayor set up a few dinners in the open space outside his house, and invited a few important people from the town to have dinner together. The young doctor Guna also had a seat, but she did not toast Alan like the others. She only ate her dinner quietly during the whole process.

The next day, the caravan left Greyhound Town after replenishing the necessary supplies. Allen rode his carriage, and Rick and Fares rode near him. Along the way, Rick kept urging Fares to come back from the north and chase after the beautiful female doctor Guna through Greyhound Town. Fares, who was still a bachelor, had an awkward expression, but judging from his appearance, he should be interested in Guna. josei

After leaving the town for a few kilometers, Alan suddenly heard a cry of alarm coming from behind. Then someone shouted, "Look, is that a fire?" Alan leaned out half of his body and looked behind the group. Sure enough, a cloud of grey smoke rose from the distant horizon. The direction of Greyhound Town was flickering with flames, causing Alan's heart to sink. He jumped out of the carriage and beckoned for a warhorse. Alan rolled over and mounted the horse. The window of the carriage opened, and Lucy poked her head out and asked, "What's going on?"

"Something may have happened to Greyhound Town. I had the mayor treat us to dinner yesterday. Now that something has happened to Greyhound Town, I have to go back and take a look." Alan went up to Regis and Nelly and ordered another twenty soldiers to ride away with him. The others rested on the spot, and Fares clenched his fists as he looked at the flames rising in the direction of Greyhound Town.

The wind blew and Alan soon heard the sound of horse hooves. Then, he saw a woman running in his direction, followed by a dozen fast horses. The knight on the horse was playing with the woman like a cat catching a mouse. He was not in a hurry to make a move. He just rode on his horse and drove the woman away, exhausted. From time to time, he let out a series of laughter.

Alan narrowed his eyes. That woman was Guna the physician. He raised his hand, and the Inch Fire Sagittarius behind him immediately understood. They all used their legs to control their horses, and both of their hands removed their Flame Fighting Rifles from their backs, pointing at the riders opposite them.

The riders chasing after Guna also discovered Alan's group, but they weren't afraid either, leaving behind two riders to control Guna. The rest rushed out, seemingly wanting to have a horse battle with Allen's side. Alan sneered. He wasn't interested in accompanying him. With a forceful wave of his arm, the rough sound of gunfire rifles could be heard from behind him. The more the line of fire flew, the more half of the riders on the other side were shot down. When the rest saw that the situation wasn't right, they turned the horse around. Alan let out a long howl and Red King drew out his sheath. He crossed a hundred meters with his saber and landed in front of the rider.

Alan turned around and swept his saber, causing the movements of the five or six riders to suddenly stiffen. Everyone's clothes shattered and blood sprayed out from their waist. The rider's upper body slid down like an invisible line, and the lower part of his waist was still sitting on the warhorse.

After controlling Guna's two riders, their expressions finally changed. They no longer cared about Guna and left the woman behind before turning around and running wildly.

Alan put away his saber and rushed to Guna. The girl was already exhausted. Seeing that Allen's eyes were red, she pointed in the direction of the town and shouted, "Save her." Then, she fainted. Alan frowned and handed Guna to one of his subordinates to bring the girl back to the caravan. He continued to lead Regis and the others in the direction of Grizzly Town. Unfortunately, he was too late and the town was already in a sea of fire.

Alan asked Regis and the others to wait outside the town, while he abandoned his horse and rushed into the town. With the Sovereign King of Fire's ability to suppress the sea of flames, a powerful force spread out around him, covering the entire town. The flames in the town seemed to have been suppressed by an invisible hand, and the flames gradually extinguished. A few minutes later, Regis and the others also entered the small town. However, after this fire, there were no tiles left in the town.

In the small square of the town, Alan stood silently. The inhabitants of the town were piled up into small hills, and both men, women and children had turned into charred corpses. In the hands of a child corpse, Alan saw the Trojan horse he had cut. However, the Trojan Horse had already been burned to the ground, and the remaining piece was firmly caught in the hands of the child. Alan gently tore it off and put it in his arms. Then, he turned around and said, "Find those murderers, and not a single one of them will be spared!"

One of the bronze blades in the team immediately complied, and soon news came. Allen and his party left the town and entered Sentinel Ridge again on the lead of the bronze blade. At the entrance of Sentinel Ridge, a horse caravan stopped by the river. The warhorse was eating grass and drinking water, while a man squatted on the river bank and pulled his hand out of the river. The river was scarlet red and flowed all the way to the small town that had already turned into ashes under the mountains.

Suddenly, someone yelled, "Look, the fire in the town has gone out. I can't be blinded, can I?"

When the man who was wiping his hands heard this, he immediately jumped up and stood on a slope to look in the direction of Greyhound Town. The fire that should have been burning for an hour or two had indeed extinguished. His expression changed and he shouted, "Something bad has happened. Let's go!"

A voice sounded, "Where do you want to go? Why don't I send you to hell?"

When the man heard this, he couldn't see anything else. He only saw a wisp of scarlet saber light like the autumn afternoon sun, dividing the world in his eyes into two.

In the eyes of others, this man was cut in half by a sudden red light. The saber light disappeared, and a silver-haired youth stood with his saber in his hand. His bright red eyes slowly swept across the crowd. Those who were swept by his gaze seemed to be able to see their corpses in his eyes. The scene was quiet for a moment, and then murderous sounds rose in all directions. The young man only sneered and dragged his saber into the crowd, causing blood to rain everywhere.

After Regis and his party joined the battle, this group of 40-odd mounted bandits was annihilated. The few Inch Fire Archers that Allen had set up at the commanding heights before the operation allowed none of the mounted bandits to escape. After that, he found bags of luggage on the horses and opened them. They were filled with gold coins and food. They must have been snatched from the town.

Ellen sighed and had these things sent back to town, buried with the corpses of the townsfolk. It was already afternoon after finishing the work, and Alan brought his men back to the caravan.

Everyone knew that the Dragon Bone Plain was rich in horse bandits. Just like the pirates in the Dark Lands, the horse bandits in the Dragon Bone Plain were also a major hidden danger in the surrounding area. However, the plains were vast and the bandits came and went like the wind, so it was not easy to encircle them. Moreover, who knew if there were any big shots backing these bandits? Otherwise, Mosior was on the other side of the Dragonbone Plain, so how could the Grizzly Armored Bear Army, which was stationed at Mosior, allow the bandits to exist today?

Returning to the caravan, Guna had already woken up. There were no injuries on his body, but his mental injuries were more severe than his physical injuries, and he was now in the carriage with Lucy. Fares relayed Guna's words. It turned out that she had gone into the mountains to pick herbs this morning, but she did not expect that she would be able to avoid a calamity because of this. Not long after their caravan left, a horse thief attacked the town. They looted the property of the townsfolk, and in the end they killed and set fire to it. When Guna saw the fire on the mountain and rushed back, no one could save her.

Later, she discovered that if Alan hadn't arrived in time, there wouldn't have been a single survivor in Greyhound Town.

After saying that, Fares hesitated and said, "My lord, can you bring Miss Guna with you? She has no home to return to now."

Alan looked at Edward and asked, "What do you think?"

"It's just one more mouth," Edward said coolly. "We can afford it. Besides, she's a doctor, and if she's willing to come with us, that would be a good thing for us."

"I'll go ask her." Alan walked back to the carriage, opened the door and got in. After a while, he came out and nodded at them.

Fares exhaled and finally put down the big stone in his heart. Rick, who was beside him, gave him a gentle bump and revealed a meaningful smile.

The caravan continued on its journey, passing through the Dragon Bone Plain the next day. After passing through another forest, along the highway in the woods, in the afternoon, he saw Mosaio's tall grey city wall.

Pisadin City, the largest city in the south, was ten times more prosperous. Before they could enter the city, they could hear the bustling voices of the people in the city. This time, the entry into GATT was very smooth, and no blind tax official suddenly raised the tariff. After presenting their identity papers and paying their duties, the caravan entered Mosaio and was instantly drowned by the crowd.

The lively atmosphere in Mosaiore made Guna, who was originally depressed, forget the sadness of the massacre in the town. She lay by the window and curiously sized up the surrounding streets. The streets of the city were much wider than those of the small town, and there was no crowding even when several carriages were traveling side by side. The buildings on both sides were made of gray stone bricks, tall and sturdy. In the distance, minarets and bell towers could be seen everywhere. Above those buildings, the Bear Armored Army's flag was fluttering in the wind.

Fares chose the hotel called Green Algae, one of the bustling streets of Mosaio, as the lodging for the caravan. Across the street is Orlando Fair, one of the city's several major merchandise hubs. There were numerous taverns, shops, and the empire's north and south currencies, almost all of which could be found in the bazaar.
