Theodore said that Nalant had already made great contributions in the last expedition, so there was no need to let him, a baron and aristocrat who was not even a principality, stand in the forefront this time.
After all, this time the six empires are all dispatched. If even the six empires can't stop it, it may not be possible to rely on Nalant alone.
After receiving such an explanation, Nalant stayed in the small Viscount town with great peace of mind.
Since it is just a small city of Viscount, the scale of the city is certainly not large, and it can only accommodate about 100,000 people.
The castle was also built on a hill, but it was somewhat dilapidated.
"Everyone, let's go into the city!"
Looking at the small leaders of the four races beside him, Nalant took the lead in stepping into the city.
The leaders of the other four tribes looked at each other and immediately followed.
After entering the city, Nalant was very satisfied with the work of the serfs in the past few days.
Not only were the city gates re-reinforced, but some gaps in the city walls were also re-filled.
Although it doesn't look grand from the outside, its durability should be no problem.
The city wall of this small city is not very high, only about twenty meters.
Compared to Duke City, it is at least half smaller.
But Nalant and others were at the rear of the coalition this time, and such a city wall was not too weak.
"Human nobles, your team has the largest number of people this time. You decide how to defend this city." Several commanders climbed onto the city wall, and the orc commander immediately looked at Nalant.
However, the tone of this guy's words was not friendly, and even a little hostile.
After all, Nalant taught the Orcs a lesson in the Black Rock Plains, but everyone in the Orcs knew of his existence.
These orcs usually pride themselves on being the strongest warriors in the Holy Continent, and they look down on the thin humans very much.
In this way, being defeated by a small human race like Nalant is the pain in the hearts of all orcs.
"Since you asked, Mr. Shit..."
"Humans are Gus, not shit!" The orc immediately retorted angrily upon hearing this.
"Okay, shit... Lord Gusi, this city has a total of three walls that need to be defended, namely the front and the left and right sides."
"As for the castle at the rear, I have sent someone to look at the hills there. The bottom of the hill at the rear was dug straight by the original owner of the castle, with a drop of more than 40 meters."
"So, the guards at the rear don't need to worry too much. You only need to send a few soldiers to keep an eye on it when the time comes!"
"Then, now all that's left is the front and the left and right sides."
"The front of this city is wide, why not leave it to me to guard it."
"The left and right sides will be left to you orcs, dwarves and elves to guard."
"The number of elven warriors is slightly smaller, and they are all longbowmen. Then let the elven warriors be divided into two groups to provide you with distant support."
"Do you think this is okay?"
Nalant looked at several people.
After listening to what Nalant said, the leaders of several races had their eyes flashing with thought.
In their hearts, the human race is cunning. Even if Nalant's allocation is really based on the overall situation, they still need to think more about it.
Nalant didn't care and just waited quietly for them to think.
"Okay, Baron Nalant, then we dwarfs will guard the left wall!" At this time, the leader of the dwarfs was the first to finish thinking.
If he were not wary of the human race, the dwarf would not have to think about it for so long when facing Nalant. After all, Nalant had a good relationship with the dwarves.
"Okay, Lord Tongchui, I'll leave the city wall on the left to you!" Nalant nodded.
"Then we orcs will guard the right side!"
At this time, the orc Gus saw that the dwarf had finished thinking, and finally nodded in agreement.
"We elves have no objection!" A masked female elf among the elves said.
Upon hearing this, Nalant couldn't help but glance at the female elf.
Not only is this female elf tall and graceful, her voice is as sweet as an oriole's.
However, it is somewhat regrettable that this female elf did not reveal her true colors like other elves.
A silver mask completely covered her face, and only her crystal eyes could be seen clearly.
Nalant had reason to suspect that this female elf should have some status among the elves, because the small group of elf guards following her treated her with great respect.
Of course, these are not particularly important. Now Nalant has no extra thoughts to attract the attention of this Elf beauty. After all, in such a life-and-death situation, saving one's life is definitely the most important thing.
The next moment, Nalant withdrew his gaze.
"Human nobles, what about us? Where are we Goblins?"
At this moment, the Goblin leader, who was too short and had almost no presence, became a little unhappy and asked Nalant.
"Of course you Goblin warriors also have missions. I think you are so brave that you don't need to stay on the city wall for the time being."
"But wait until there is an emergency on the city wall, wherever support is needed, and then let you all dispatch!"
"Of course, before that, I wonder if you Goblin warriors can dig a tunnel under this city!" Nalant looked at the goblins with a smile.
"Dig a tunnel? What are you digging a tunnel for?" The Goblin leader was very satisfied with the adjectives given by Nalant's two warriors.
So when I heard that Nalant was going to let them do hard work, he wasn't too angry.
"This mighty Goblin leader, you also know that there are a lot of dark creatures, especially this time the real dark abyss continent has arrived."
"So, even though we are located behind the Duke City, we must be prepared just in case."
"For example, if some dark creatures surround us and other cities are in urgent need of supplies, we can transport the supplies directly from the tunnel to avoid the possibility that friendly forces will not be able to approach the city!"
This is the reason why Nalant praised these goblins without conscience.
After many large and small wars over the years, Nalant has truly grown into a qualified commander.
Therefore, being prepared for a rainy day is also one of the qualities he possesses now.
"Pfft, human noble, I don't think you are thinking about being able to transport the supplies by then. Instead, you probably want to use the tunnel to escape!"
At this time, the orc Gusi burst out laughing.
However, it was better that he didn't say it. When he said this, the goblin leader's originally reluctant expression suddenly brightened.
"Human nobles, then leave this matter to us Goblin warriors. In addition to fighting, we Goblin warriors are also good at construction."
"By the way, human nobles, this tunnel needs to be dug from where and where it needs to be dug!" The Goblin leader looked at Nalant.
"Let's dig this tunnel from the small courtyard in the city to the pile of rubble in front of it. Once it is dug out, it will be sealed with stones and then opened when necessary!" Nalant glanced around.
, immediately pointed out the location of the entrance and exit of the tunnel.
"Okay, human noble!"
"But, is one tunnel enough? Should we dig two more?" the Goblin leader continued to ask.
"..." Nalant finally convinced these green-skinned guys.
"No, we only need one. Then we will dig it wider. By the way, we must ensure its sturdiness. If possible, we can also demolish the stone houses in the city and move the stones into the tunnel to fill it!"
"Human nobles, don't worry, the tunnels dug by our goblins are absolutely solid and reliable." The goblin leader immediately patted his chest and assured.
Just kidding, that's an escape... No, that's a passage for transporting supplies to other friendly forces. They will definitely ensure that the tunnel is strong.
"Very good, then you can go and make arrangements, but I still need to arrange the city later. There will be some movement by then, so don't be nervous!"
With that said, regardless of the doubts of several people, Nalant headed towards his team.
Not long after, ten magic carriages equipped with magic cannons drove to various parts of the town.
Boom! Boom!
Not long after, roars were heard in the city, accompanied by the sound of large buildings collapsing.
This sudden roar and building collapse shocked the leaders of other tribes.
"Asshole, what do you mean by this human noble? He actually destroyed all the towers on the city wall!"
And when the commanders reacted, they immediately started yelling at each other.
Especially Gus, the orc clan, was furious when he saw towers every hundred meters on the city wall being blown down.
Those defensive towers are among the best fortifications on the city wall.
Whether it is a longbowman or a spear thrower, just entering it can not only increase the shooting distance, but also avoid being attacked by the enemy.
But now it was destroyed by that human race.
At that moment, the orc leader angrily went to find Nalant.
Although the dwarves and elves did not curse loudly, they also came to Nalant for an explanation.
"Everyone, that tower is not strong. I'm worried that if there is an earthquake, the tower may collapse immediately."
"And in that case, not only the people in the tower, but also the people around will not be spared." Nalant gave a straightforward explanation without any guilt.
"You, a human noble, think too much. How could dark creatures use their continent to collide with our sacred continent!"
Faced with Nalant's explanation, the orc leader Gus naturally dismissed it.
But since the deal was already done, he had no choice but to leave angrily.
And Nalant didn't care about this. If he guessed wrong, it didn't matter. Anyway, it was just a few dilapidated towers, and it would not greatly affect the defense.
Afterwards, Nalant's magic cannon team headed to the Viscount Castle, and also destroyed all the towering arrow towers that were not only used as shooting platforms, but were also responsible for adding towering arrows to the castle.
When all the tall buildings in the city have been cleared, Narant's preparations are complete.
Then he asked his subordinates to find an open area to station themselves, and at the same time placed all the long-range attack weapons on his city wall defense line.
After all the long-range weapons were arranged, Nalant took some time off.
Three days later, at noon, the logistics team from the rear finally completed supplies to all the cities on the front line and began to stock up on supplies in the small city of Nalant.
At this time, Nalant and others had something to do, which was to let their subordinates guide these supply teams to store supplies in different zones.
"Hey, what's going on with that castle? I remember when I passed outside the city the day before yesterday, the castle was still in good condition. The towers were so majestic. Could it be that there was a battle here?"
On this day, several leaders of the convoy responsible for transporting supplies looked at the Viscount Castle behind the city and asked the surrounding soldiers of several tribes with some doubts.
[By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books is currently Yeguo Reading, install the latest version on yeguoyuedu.]
"Huh, it's not that stupid noble of your human race. He actually had all those towers blown down. He said he was worried that when the Dark Abyss arrives, it will hit our sacred continent and cause an earthquake."
A greedy orc who came looking for food immediately started joking after hearing this.
"Is it Baron Narant?" Several convoy leaders were stunned for a moment when they heard this, and then shook their heads and said: "Baron Narant is really admirable in combat, but this time he seems to have done a little too much.
pass."
"Yes, because of Baron Nalant's speculation, I heard that many civilians in the capital of our Duke of Green Leaf were forcibly driven out of the city. They were worried that there would be a major earthquake and some dilapidated stone houses would collapse!"
"Yes, so does our Tata Principality. Moreover, the entire principality city has issued such an order, and even the palace has been evacuated!"

..." The orcs felt even more proud when they heard that even the humans were talking about Nalant.
I was ready to scold him again right now.
Boom!
However, just before he finished speaking, a loud noise came from the sky.
"What's going on?" Several people immediately paused when they heard the sound, because the loud noise was louder and louder than ever before.
"Is that direction the direction of Duke City? Could it be that the dark abyss has finally arrived..."
Rumble, rumble...
And just when a few people were in shock and confusion, louder roars came one after another the next moment.
Boom boom boom...
At the same time, everyone suddenly felt that the ground beneath their feet began to tremble.
As the roar continued, the tremors became more and more intense.
"Ah, what on earth is going on?"
"Ah, no, the wall is going to collapse."
"Your Excellency, the Beast King...ah..."
And as the ground undulated violently, everyone in the venue felt their bodies unstable and were shaken to and fro.
It was at this time that a dilapidated stone house nearby collapsed directly because it could not withstand the violent vibration.
It has to be said that the orc was also unlucky earlier. He was closest to the wall. As the stone house collapsed, rocks weighing hundreds of kilograms all fell on him.
He only had time to let out an exclamation and a cry, and then he was drowned in the chaos.
"Quick...run, run to the street!" Everyone else was so frightened when they saw this that they all rolled and crawled towards the middle of the empty street regardless of the reason for the shaking.
