I'm the King Of Technology

Chapter 1357 - The Witchs Arrival

"Double-check on the sealed draw gate!"

"Archers prepare to strike!"

"Everyone, may the grace of the heavens be with us!"

...

The men speedily rushed to the many posts, planning to show no mercy for the witch and her minions.

"Steady... Steady... Steady..."

Many archers drew their bows, locked in position while starting at the large glowy eyes they only kept enlarging the closer it got.

How can it be this large?

Gulp.

The men swallowed hard, letting their imaginations run wild.

They hoped they didn't have to die.

~Vrmmm~~

The vehicles advanced up the highest 'Dracula-envisioned' pique of the town.

While advancing, the upper part of the heavy vehicles soon opened up, revealing several long extended tubes, similar to a submarine's.

The resolution from the rest was far sharper and superior to binoculars.

"Archers spotted at all front coordinates, particularly congested around the entry gate."

Lieutenant James nodded, listening to the report.

Well, it looks like they scared these people.

He didn't blame them because being afraid of the unknown was expected.

They had to treat the matter delicately.

Like so, James took out his walkie-talkie, communicating his orders to the rest in the other vehicles.

He was in charge of all military operations and had his main subordinates, who in turn commanded several subunits too.

James contacted his subordinates, making his plans known.

And soon, they had reached their targeted destination.

.

~Vrrrrmmmm~

The vehicles all drove in, creating a straight line opposite the towering walls.

Eh?

What the hell are these?

The guards in the walls couldn't understand what they were looking at.

In short, they didn't even think it was metal, taking its entire body to be that of a living creature's.

The matt black screens and windows looked like faces, and the tires were too weird and something they had never seen before.

Again, there were no horses or anything of that nature to suggest that this thing was behind dragged over... Especially with that speed.

Then what was it?

What exactly were they looking at?

And why were these things now acting docile?

"Everyone, don't be fooled! This could be all part of its big plan to lower our guard before swallowing us up!"

"That's right. Though we have seen the witch, how can we be sure that she isn't hiding somewhere very close by?"

"Don't lower your weapons! It's a sneak attack!"

(*^*)

Everyone felt that they were too smart, not getting fooled by these bizarre things.

However, 'intelligent' as they were, what happened next was something that blew their brains silly.

.

["Everyone, please stay calm... We mean no harm."]

What?!

It spoke!

It spoke!

The arches and guards tightened their grip on their weapons, falling a wave of emotions hit them.

Some were anxious, others were determined, and more fell into panic mode.

You know, the rains and winds outside were already too heavy. And even if they screamed at the top of their lungs to anyone on the ground floor from this height, it would be impossible for that person to hear a thing.

So imagine how shocked they were after hearing those words clearly.

Damn!

What sort of thing was this?

And was it just them, or did the thing sound human?

["Please, don't be alarmed. We are from the empire of Baymard, here to cure the plague... What you're looking at our carriages exclusive to us."]

Eh?

Baymard? Carriage?

They had never heard of a place called Baymard.

And again, did these people just say that these things were their carriages?

The men felt it unbelievable, not believing a word said... That was until they finally saw a person step out of one of these strange things.

F***!

Carriages! Carriages! So they were truly carriages?

How can this be?

.

The eyes of the guards flashed with greed, staring at the marvelous creations before them.

However, the task of letting these people in wasn't theirs to make.

And James also understood this.

Thus, the Baymardians all sat in their vehicles, waiting for the town lord to make his move.

Of course, inwardly, they gave these people a time limit before they stormed the place and convinced these people for themselves.

Heh... By hook or by crook, they would get this mission done and save the town from the plague.

Only by quarantining the entire region can they protect not only the empire of Czar but also the other empires and eventually the world.

Of course, other teams have headed to other neighbouring towns, villages and cities to handle matters there.

All in all, they had to complete their mission.

So forget it.

If they had to use some force, they wouldn't feel guilty about it.

They were doing this for the greater good, and that was that!

.

"What? A witch and her minions?"

In the main estate building, a broad-shouldered man jumped off his seat when he got the news.

"Cerberus, how accurate is this story? So the curse is real?"

"My lord, the guard who reported this matter wasn't the only one to say so." Replied a guard on one bended knee.

So far, they had gotten 13 people from various corners of the front wall reporting the same matter. Though their words and speech delivery differed, their main points remained the same.

They all spoke of a witch and her minions.

How accurate was the story?

"Son of a b**ch!" Town Lord Ivo cursed, having a deadly look on his face.

"Why now? We're still busy struggling to survive with the damn situation out there. So why the hell would a witch from heaven knows where appear here?"

"My lord, please... You need to calm down. Remember what the physicist said about her heart."

"Oh, to hell with that fake bloody physicist. He's been treating me for a decade now, so how come I'm not cured yet? And what's the matter with this damn witch? I didn't offend her; you didn't offend her.... Did anyone offend her? Why the hell is she bothering my land? Do you know how much business we've lost because of this dastardly curse?"
