MTL - Dawn of the Grey Tower-Chapter 62 Giant rat

After realizing that something is happening to these native ratmen, Losa instinctively realized that it was wrong. Although it has long been known that these rat-shaped monsters hate sunlight, its extent is the nocturnal creature's instinctive escape from the sun. However, the burned and curly hair on the severely wounded ratman who was hit in front of him was obviously not caused by psychological factors.

Fortunately, the situation on the battlefield gradually turned into an advantage because of the arrival of the Earl of Montenegro. As long as the knight in the gold armor stood on the army on his horse, its significance was enough to let the bear hunters know that the situation was still in human hands. As for the knights of the Kingdom Knights, they were also encouraged after the comrades around them became excited. Although the Ratmen ’s offensive does not seem to have any weakening trend, the human defense line seems to have stopped retreating, even faintly moving forward. Advance. This gave Lothar time to carefully observe the ratmen in front of him. In the eyes of the earl, these ratmen were neither the grim monsters seen by ordinary people, nor the poor infected persons they knew of. For Lothar, they are just opponents. This is enough, without any personal feelings, even if he knows that these native ratmen used to be humans, he will not have mercy, even if these monsters are grim and bite blood, he will not hate, which gives the Earl of Montenegro the opportunity to use other A perspective to examine these ratmen.

There is no doubt that the ratmen tortured by the plague are fierce beasts, but aside from the hostile relationship, as a commander, these ratmen's tactics are almost in the eyes of Lothar. Excellent stealth ability, keen senses, the ability to easily climb buildings or dig tunnels, the ratmen with these should be scouts in the shadows, they can become the commander's best eyes and ears, the enemy's trail will be in There is nothing to escape from the penetration of the ratmen, which makes the ratmen's excellent physical functions incomparable. After all, although the agility is strong, the squirrel's body is far less rigid than the soldiers wearing heavy armor, and matching the squirrel with armor allows them to sacrifice their speed advantage while gaining defense, then it is better to go directly to find an ordinary warrior. In short, any commander with common sense will not allow such soldiers to be assaulters on the frontal battlefield.

The facts also seem to corroborate Losa ’s conclusion that although he gained an advantage because of his terrible appearance and sudden offensive, as the human side has time to gain a foothold, the offense of the Ratman has become extremely inefficient. Battle of Attrition. Earl of Montenegro ’s sight, there were corpses of mortal humans around the front and back of the line of human soldiers, and soldiers who retreated into Zhuoliu town to operate in small groups had very few casualties, so it seems that resisting this assault should only be Time issue. In this way, there is only one place left in this battle that puzzles Lothar.

The Earl of Montenegro found a middle-ranking officer among the bear hunters. His troops were responsible for the defense of the outskirts of Zhuoliu when the Ratmen attacked. Seeing Losa coming over in person, the officer instinctively believed that the count was to be held accountable for the failure of the outer part, but Losa quickly stated that he had no plans to pursue the matter for the time being. On the contrary, the count asked a listener The issues that do not matter much at this time.

"Did you see those monsters eating people?" Lothar asked.

The officer's unconscious intention is to say that after all, the appearance of the primitive murmurs and the blood-eating behavior they exhibit make it hard to believe that they will not touch the bodies of those soldiers. But when he was about to answer this question, the officer calmed down due to the perennial majesty of the Earl of Montenegro. He made a thoughtful look, trying to find a picture of the rat-eater eating the human body in the chaotic memory. . But after about ten breaths, he could only answer like this.

"I think they are eating people, but I didn't see them directly, lord."

Got the other party's answer and confirmed the last doubt in Lothar's heart. Gregory, who was looking for the count among the soldiers, had just found him at this time, and he also heard the officer's answer.

"Is it important that these monsters eat people?" Gregory asked.

Lothar glanced up at this man. Although he agreed to Gregorian ’s proposal in the process of isolating Lyon and others, and even presided over their trial of cheese, they were all necessary as a lord. made. These actions only show that the Earl of Montenegro did not protect Lyon from them. It does not mean that he likes this opportunity to get rid of his governor Gregory. But now Lyon can't come back directly to take over the command of the Kingdom Knights, so Losa still has to patiently explain his ideas to the other party.

"If they eat people, I can understand that these monsters are attacking the town of Zhuoliu because of hunger. If so, then their hunger should make them ca n’t wait to enjoy everyone who was thrown by them. But they do n’t, maybe These mice really eat human flesh, and I have no doubt about it, but since they did not enjoy their lunch as soon as possible. So why do they come to attack us is a problem. "The count said.

"Maybe ... they want to kill us all before eating?" Gregorian hesitated.

Yeah, maybe they still want to sprinkle on us before cooking. What a fool, the hungry beasts don't care about the order of meals. Lyon will trust this guy and deserve him to be framed. The count of Montenegro thought to himself. But although he felt disdain for Gregory ’s sluggish reaction, on the battlefield, Lothar knew how to deal with such an ally who could not keep up with him, at least ~ www.novelbuddy.com ~ he would not put his disdain for the other side Face.

"Maybe, but I tend to think that these mice will attack us because they are driven by someone." Then, the Earl tilted his head and gestured to the ratmen who had not swallowed on the ground, and their hair was burning. And a faint black smoke came out.

"You mean, someone instructed these monsters to attack our soldiers? I think that must be the wizard! Because he was afraid of us trying him, he found these monsters! You are right!" Lothar's The inference was completely different in Gregory's eyes. The knight thought happily that he had found a "criminal evidence" that could be put on the head of the cheese, and Lyon who brought him naturally could not escape the blame.

Narrowing his eyes, he resisted the urge to axe to split this brain-filled right and the dirty stupidity. Lothar chose not to communicate with Gregory anymore. In his view, this person was completely useless because of the company. There are such people in the Kingdom Knights. The Earl of Montenegro never wanted to obtain the title of knight. The glorious title has been ruined by too many such people.

At this moment, the battlefield of the battle suddenly made a very loud sound, it felt like someone was hitting the city wall with a siege hammer. Without saying a word, Lothar immediately turned on his horse and went to the place where the sound was made. On the street that was not very spacious, he saw the source of the sound, which was a variant of the ratman called the giant ratman by the cheese. Compared with the giant ratmen two meters tall seen in the valley city, the guy standing on the street and throwing the bear hunter soldiers at random as stones on the side of the road is at least about three meters tall. This is no longer a giant to generalize. There is only one word for such a creature in Lothar's mind-giant.
