Ilea was a little nervous when she first heard that the Wing Tribe people had left Lake City, thinking that those guys were unwilling to watch her and her resistance march forward, and finally couldn't help but take action.
However, the female lord learned from the subsequent news that the Wing tribesmen did not march to Yanxue City, but instead headed eastward and left the Western Territory.
And unlike when they came, they retreated very simply this time. They didn't even stop in the towns along the way. They just kept waving their wings and flew out of the Western Region in less than five days.
The female lord was worried that the information was not accurate enough, or that the Wing Tribe people were playing tricks, so she specifically asked the radio stations in several places, and finally spelled out the movement trajectory of the Wing Tribe troops these days, and found that it was actually a
A straight line extending straight beyond the western border.
Only then was it confirmed that they had really retreated.
At this time, the news that the Wing Tribe people had withdrawn from Lake City began to gradually spread in the Western Region, and at the same time, it was accompanied by another even more shocking rumor.
…………
After these Wing Tribe people left, Perls, the lord of Lake City, was finally able to move out of the hotel and return to his castle.
Returning home again after more than a month, Perls had mixed feelings in his heart. He felt that it was too aggrieved for him as a city lord to be kicked out of his home on his own territory.
Moreover, those Wing Clan people also closed the city gates, closed the suspension bridge outside the city, and did not allow anyone to enter or exit. Perls wanted to take his family to live in a manor outside the city for a while.
In addition, the city's economy has been in chaos since the city has been closed for so long. Food and daily necessities have skyrocketed. In addition, the Perls people are more practical and have surrendered all their belongings in order to survive.
Those Wing Clan members themselves did not stay secretly.
And there were so many people in his family that he almost ran out of food in the end. Fortunately, he was the master of this city after all, and he managed to survive with the help of his vassals.
But other people, especially civilians, were not so lucky. Perls roughly calculated that tens of thousands of people would starve to death during this lockdown.
In fact, there are still a lot of grains in the city in the lake, but they are held back by the Yi tribe and are unwilling to distribute them to the residents of the city. Perls went to beg for them several times, but without exception, he was met with ashes.
Not even Solomon was seen.
There are only more than 60,000 people in Lake City, and Perls no longer dares to continue calculating the losses.
Moreover, the remaining people were fleeing as soon as the city gates were opened, and many people even left their property behind.
On the way to the castle, Perls had already encountered more than one group of people, dragging their families with them to escape from the Lake City.
Those people were stunned when they saw Perls, and then ran faster. Perls was very heartbroken. Many of these people and their ancestors chose to stay in Lake City because of the stability of the city.
Lived here.
As a city standing in the middle of a lake, surrounded by water, the City in the Lake has kept countless powerful enemies at bay over the past long years.
The heroic and heroic founding emperor of the empire, Alessandro the Furious Lion, had to reach an agreement with the Malir family and allow them to continue to rule the city in the lake. Only then did he gain the allegiance of the Malir family.
However, today is different from the past. Facing those flying Wing Tribe people, the surrounding lakes can no longer protect the city.
Pers felt a little uncomfortable when he thought of this. He didn't like those rude and domineering Wing Tribe people, but when those Wing Tribe people left, he felt inexplicably flustered.
While Pers was thinking wildly, he had already arrived outside the castle. Facing the closed city gate, he had to have someone climb up the wall with a ladder to open the door inside.
The moment the door opened, Perls felt his breathing stop.
Looking at the terrifying scene inside, he couldn't help but take a few steps back. Finally, his legs softened and he sat down on the ground.
Everywhere he looked were corpses, densely packed corpses, visually estimated to be at least a thousand, all with wings on their backs, and some still maintaining strange postures.
Perls felt that his mind went blank, and he was too frightened to say a word.
After a while, he finally regained his composure and boldly continued walking into the castle. The main building was also filled with corpses, probably in the thousands.
Fortunately, Pers had become a little numb along the way and was not as scared as before. He recalled some rumors in the city not long ago.
It was said that those Yi tribesmen stayed up most of the night and were carrying something outside the city.
After contacting the Yi clan members, they suddenly turned back halfway and were not allowed to open the city gate of Lake City.
A ridiculous and terrifying idea came to Perls' mind.
Could it be that those Wing Clan people were transporting corpses instead of other things at night? As for the corpses in the castle, it was because they left in a hurry and had no time to transport them out.
Pers shuddered. How many people from the Wing Clan had died? After more than a month of continuous removal, more than two thousand corpses could still be left in his castle.
And haven't they participated in any battles during this period? Why is there such a large-scale attrition?
Pers couldn't understand. He stood in the middle of the corpse, his body shaking uncontrollably.
No wonder those Wing Tribe people quietly left Lake City in the darkness last night without saying hello to anyone. It was only when Perls, the city lord, woke up in the morning that he realized that all the Wing Tribe soldiers responsible for guarding the city were missing.
What happened that caused this wing clan army to suffer such a tragic blow?
Pers was still thinking, but he heard an attendant exclaiming, "Saturday is Saturday's divine punishment!
"Saturday's divine punishment really came to those Wing Tribe people!!!" the attendant said excitedly, "Prophet Merlin did not lie, this is divine punishment!!!"
As he spoke, he extended his left hand to sign a six. Pers frowned, "Jacques, when did you start believing in that foreign god?"
Jacques said, "I...my mother converted to Saturday worship a year ago. She often told us about Merlin and the two-day holiday. My father also converted half a year ago, but I haven't made up my mind yet.
"No, I haven't made up my mind before. I plan to find a monk in two days to help me hold an initiation ceremony. Mr. Perls, please come with me!"
Pers was startled, "Why should I go with you?"
"You have witnessed the power of Saturday with your own eyes, aren't you touched? And those Wing Clan members have also escaped."
Jaq's last words awakened Pers and made him worry again. Yes, those Wing Tribe people had already escaped, so what should he, the lord who had just surrendered to the Wing Tribe people, do?
Perls's face changed several times, and he patted Jacques on the shoulder for the last time and said, "Don't wait two days, let's leave now."
"Ah?" Jacques was caught off guard this time, "Now, let's leave now, are you in such a hurry?"
"Yes, right now," Pers had already made up his mind, "I will go with you to see Merlin and Sir Ilea, go back and tell your parents and we will set off... No, don't go by yourself, go directly to find
I'll help you make a run for it, so we can get out of the city early."
