Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1071: Incoming Attack

[Calm down, Hulk. We don't trust anyone and we don't accuse anyone. So far, there's no sign that they're from Pierre, and I'm sure you've seen them. They're really tired. They're inhospitable, but they're not unkind.] The old man said calmly, "And I've arranged for Mira to keep an eye on them. If anything happens, he'll blow the horn."

"Even if they aren't Marquis Pierre's men, we can't ignore Fatty's words. Mayor, what do you think we should do?" Sitting on another wine table, a middle-aged man with bulging muscles said. His eyebrows were very rough, but his eyes were strangely gentle.

'"Pyro, we all know that Fatty is not joking. Although for some reason he asked us to migrate, our ancestors have already yielded once and moved here from the mountains. Should we, the High Heavens, give in again and be the sheep and horses chased by that man? Besides, our ancestors are sleeping here, and we have a responsibility to keep them safe." The old man said firmly, "I will write a letter in the name of the mayor and have it sent to Oliska. The emperor must give an answer to this. Did their ancestors promise that the High Heavens would be free to choose their favorite place to live? Has this promise been cancelled?"

"If you need me, I'll go." The middle-aged man said calmly.

The bearded Hulk raised his head and drank all the liquor in his glass. "I'll go too!" He said loudly.

The mayor raised his hand to silence the crowd and said, "As for who should go, I have my own limits. Someone must go out, but not everyone. The town still needs young men to guard against Fatty."

"If he dares to come, I will stab him in the butt with a gun. Eye!" Shouted a young man of eighteen or nineteen.

"You'd better not do that, Devon. That will only make things worse!" The mayor said loudly.

A man beside the young man pushed him back in a bad mood.

"Anyway, the sooner this goes on, the better. I'll write the letter tonight, and tomorrow, the chosen ones will leave immediately." The mayor stood up and announced, "That's it. Everyone, let's disperse first. What should we do?"

Twilight slowly climbed up the hillside, and smoke began to rise in the town, which could be seen even outside the town. Alan had already changed into a clean set of clothes. He wore the reverse scales close to his body, while he wore a loose linen garment on the outside. He walked out of the tent and saw that Abel and Fares were practicing together, so he stood to the side and watched the battle. Fares used a one-handed saber, while Abel held a longsword that Alan had given him.

The sword danced in the young man's hand like it did. Fares fed him a wave while pointing out which of his swordsmanship was not too long ago. Right now, Abel's footwork and swordsmanship were basically ten dozen in the army that Alan had taught him. Abel usually practiced diligently and looked like he was already in a good shape. He was only lacking in actual combat. Apart from Fares, Regis and Laura also taught him some combat skills from time to time. Abel benefited a lot.

At this moment, Fares rushed forward and cut his saber. Abel finally lacked combat experience, and his vision blurred. By the time he regained his senses, the sword had already been cut off by Fares. The Guild Leader picked up the sword and handed it back to the youth, patting him on the shoulder to explain the flaws in the battle just now.

'"I haven't fought with you in a long time. Anyway, I'm fine. Let's have a fight," he shouted when he saw Ellen.

Alan smiled and said, "Don't cry if you lose later."

'"I'm not a child anymore," said Regis angrily.

"Bieber is only two years older."

Along the way, not only was Alan growing, but the battle prowess of Regis and the others was also increasing. After leaving the underground tunnel, the Origin Energy of Regis, Laura, and the others had already risen by one level. However, the timing of their advancement was different. Seeing that Regis was eager to try, Alan did not disappoint him and ended up being invited. Naturally, a soldier sent them a long saber. The two of them circled the field half a circle and exerted their strength at the same time. Immediately after, they collided with each other. Then, sparks flew everywhere, and the sound of steel resonated.

The onlookers cheered loudly, causing Lucy and the girls to walk over as well. Edward did not come to see the scene and frowned and extended his fingers. Suddenly, a strong wind blew out from the field, forcing the two of them away.

"Sorry to disturb your interest" Edward looked at Allen. "Sir, you must come. We are in trouble." josei

Alan handed the knife to the soldier beside him and said to Regis, "Next time." Don't leave with Edward.

"What's the matter?"

"You'll know later." Edward led him to the edge of the camp. A dark blade opened a package and a head rolled out.

Alan could not be more familiar with his deformed facial features and loose hair. His voice was heavy as he shouted, "Neanderthals?"

'"Yes, unfortunately, they still seem to be thinking about us. Dark Blade discovered it. It was just a Sentinel. Behind it was a troop of cavemen. They were hiding in the shadows of the mountains, waiting for the sun to set."

Allen pulled the dark blade over. "How many of these guys are there?"

"A lot, Your Excellency, hundreds of thousands." The Dark Blade Warrior replied, "I took a look from afar. They are in the shadows of the mountains and in the backlight of the hills. They are abundant. They are everywhere, my lord!"

"Damn it, these guys actually left Tallinn Aisha." Alan shook his head and looked at Dragon Spear Town. "It seems like we need to warn the people in town. I hope they won't blame us for bringing this kind of trouble."

Just as the mayor finished his dinner, he heard a knock on the door. He opened it, and outside was Mira, and the traveller of the day. One of them was the silver-haired knight.

The knight calls himself Alan, and the mayor invites them in.

Alan walked into the house. The mayor kept looking at the bundle in Edward's hand. There was blood seeping out of the cloth. The mayor felt that something was amiss and directly asked, "What's the matter, my lord?"

Alan sighed and opened the bag in Edward's hand. Immediately, the cave dweller's ugly head smashed into the mayor's eyes. The mayor took a deep breath and pointed at the head.

"Neanderthals, this is what the ancestors of Frost Wind City called them. They live underground, and we accidentally hit them in the nest, alarming them. I have to apologize to everyone in Dragon Spear Town first. For some reason, these guys have already left the underground. "According to the information my men brought back, these cavemen are likely to arrive in this town at night … We have brought disaster to everyone in this town."

The mayor opened his mouth wide and asked calmly, "How many are they?"

"A lot, all over the mountains and fields."

"Then what should we do? Our town can't stop so many monsters." The mayor sat down on a chair.

At this time, the young man Mira said angrily, "You have brought the Abyss Devils! You must take responsibility for this matter!"

"Please believe me. I don't want to do that either. But now that things have happened, scolding won't change the truth, right? Besides, even if we are willing to leave now, it's hard to guarantee that the Neanderthals won't attack this town." Alan looked at the mayor and said, "I hope you will allow us to stay. I and my men will fight together to protect the town."

"But if there are so many …"

"About this, I can probably move to reinforcements. But before that, please tell me whose territory this is." "I am the viscount of the empire," Allen said simply. "I have been invited to Oliska, the capital. If I had my own paperwork and seal, I should be able to bring reinforcements to the town."

The mayor looked at Ellen in surprise. "This territory is owned by Marquis Pierre, but … recently the Marquis has been in conflict with us."

"There's no need to worry. Unless he doesn't comply with the empire's constitution, he won't stand idly by. However, I need a guide."

"I know where that damn Fatty lives." Mira said. He looked at Alan and said, "I can take your men, but if Pierre doesn't send troops …"

"I will defend this town. I am here, the town is here." Alan looked him in the eye.

The young man nodded heavily.

Without delay, Alan had written a letter asking for help, sealed with his knighthood, and had Abel follow Mira to Marquis Pierre for help. At the same time, he ordered the caravan to move to the town, and all the warriors, including himself, came to the town wall. The defensive wall of the town was only three meters long. The defensive wall itself was only used to prevent ordinary wild beasts from crashing into the town. Not to mention its low height, it was not strong enough. An expert like Allen could easily knock down a defensive wall with a single collision.

Obviously, it was unrealistic to rely on the wall to defend. At this moment, the mayor brought dozens of men. They were shooters from the Gao Cang Tribe. The leader was Petrov, who was in the tavern early in the morning, and beside him was Big Beard Hulk and the others. Seeing Alan, Hulk cursed a few times, but was stopped by Pyro. "We won't thank you for staying here to help defend, because that's what you're doing," Petrov said to Allen.

Alan nodded.

Petrov sighed and turned to look at the others. "But I have to admit, you are all real men. After all, you can choose to leave, and our fate will be unknown. But you stay, let us fight together."

Alan smiled and reached out to hold Pyro's big hand.

Adele hugged Lu Xiao and snorted coldly, "Big man."

Only then did Petrov realize that there were quite a few female warriors on Allen's side. Moreover, each of them had a powerful aura like Laura and Nelly, causing him to feel a little embarrassed. Alan pulled Pyro over and said, "The cavemen are afraid of fire and light. Is there anything in town that can be burned, like kerosene?"

"If it's used to light a fire, there's some hay …"
