Chapter 261 Riot! The grand drama in the fortress opens
The Dendera Fortress at night is brightly lit and heavily fortified.
Since Gru confirmed that the three patrols were missing, everyone understood that the demon they were waiting for and intercepting had arrived. Considering that night is the best time for demons to move around, the entire fortress was now
They have all begun to rotate. Half of the fortress's troops are on defensive alert and are preparing to patrol all night. While the other half is resting, they are not disarmed. Once a battle occurs, they can wake up at any time to join the battle.
Under the sweep of the magic searchlight, the entire entrance to the canyon is under full surveillance, and there are always gargoyles hovering over the canyon, monitoring the movement.
This is a fortress that is in the midst of war mobilization. The powerful strength of the coalition forces makes everyone believe that once the devil appears, it can be beaten back to its hometown of Sergo...
However, it is a pity that because Alan Dial once mentioned that the demon has a group of undead troops, so under the preconceived concept, all the surveillance in the fortress is directed at visible targets, but no one has ever
I have thought about using magic like invisible detection.
Even if they thought about it, they might not be able to detect such a small devil's eye...
……………………
Because of the all-night vigilance, people in the fortress have to move. Since they have to move, energy loss will occur.
When it was almost midnight, the stomachs of the mages stationed in the mage tower on the city wall began to growl. This kind of vigil life was simply a kind of torture for the mages, but because of Escher
The leader of the magic guild was in the fortress, so the mages did not dare to disobey orders, but this did not prevent them from showing off their temper.
So, they called the mage apprentices who were serving them and asked them to get midnight snacks immediately. Although the mage apprentices agreed submissively, they turned around and handed over this task to those little ones.
Goblins!
In the Kingdom of Bradaka, mages are the largest aristocracy. Although the apprentices of mages are not true mages, their status is much higher than that of these little goblins. In fact, in the Kingdom of Bradaka,
Among them, the race of goblins is not only a military type, they are also a kind of slaves, the largest number of slaves. They are not only responsible for being workers in the factory workshop, but they may also transform into cooks, waiters, cleaners, coolies, etc. at any time.
Such occupations as...
This kind of thing where the masters want to have midnight snacks in the middle of the night is not something that the goblins have encountered once or twice, so they didn't panic after receiving the task, shouting with their sharp voices, and soon they
Take action.
If the masters want to have a late-night snack, they must also supply some troops to the ally elves. The total number is at least tens of thousands. This is a very heavy job. A large number of goblins begin to work in the kitchen.
Getting busy, they took out flour and started preparing bread and naan.
If you want to knead flour, you must have water, so nearly a hundred goblins were separated to fetch water from various water sources.
A little goblin hummed, carrying a bucket, and ran towards the well in the west of the city. It was unlucky because there were queues at several other nearby wells, so it could only run farther away.
Fetch water.
However, when it was about to reach the well, it suddenly heard a soft sound, which seemed to be the sound of some earthen jar being broken.
When it came to the well, it discovered that there were some shiny objects beside the well. These shiny objects looked like crystals. Out of curiosity, it picked up a piece and looked at it, but at night
The light was not very good, and it couldn't see clearly. It just roughly found that it seemed to be a crystal, so it looked around furtively and found that no one was around, so it immediately put the broken crystal into its pocket.
.
After all, in this world, crystals are relatively valuable things. The goblins also have money needs in the Kingdom of Bradaka...
The remaining crystals were too shattered, so the little goblin stopped taking them. However, at this time, it was also a little curious as to what was broken beside the well, so it looked into the well.
look.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but it felt like something emitting fluorescence flowed into the water on the wall of the well. The fluorescence flashed for a moment, but then disappeared quickly.
The little goblin felt strange, but he didn't think too much, because then there was a splash, and a fish in the well splashed in the water and sank again.
Raising fish in wells is usually used to detect whether the water source is polluted. When it was found that the fish in the well water was fine, the little fairy didn't care so much. It quickly took out a bucket of water from the well, and then
I carried it back crookedly, because if I were late, it might get whipped...
The water brought by the little goblins was poured into the large water tank next to the kitchen. The water brought by this little goblin was no exception. It was poured in with a splash, and after the water was poured,
, the little goblin hummed and continued to fetch water.
The water in the large water tank was quickly used in the kitchen, and some of the busy and sweaty little goblins would scoop water out of the large water tank to drink...
The evil eye, which was invisible and hovering in the night sky, saw all this scene, and this scene was transmitted to Roy's eyes in real time.
Seeing that his plan was going well, Roy was relieved. The next step was to wait, waiting for the virus in his demon blood to break out...
Just as the hot bread and naan cakes were being delivered to various parts of the fortress by the goblins, one goblin felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach. He scooped up water because he was thirsty more than half an hour ago.
After drinking the water in the tank, it felt that the water was very cold at that time, so it suspected that it had eaten a bad stomach, so it wanted to avoid the sight of the supervisor and find a place to solve the problem.
However, before it could find the location of the toilet, it found that its whole body began to feel hot. The feeling of heat all over its body gradually began to blur its consciousness. It had forgotten where it was going and its legs.
Just moving unconsciously.
Not long after, a mage apprentice supervisor discovered this little goblin with strange movements. When he saw that this guy didn't go to work, the mage apprentice was furious and walked forward with a whip. Without saying a word, he
A whip was struck.
However, after being whipped in the past, the screams of the little goblins did not appear this time. Although the little goblin who was whipped had a bloody whip mark on his face, he only shook his body and did not fall down.
, instead turned around and staggered towards the mage apprentice.
The mage's apprentice felt that he was insulted and did not use a whip to carry out his supervisory duties. This was an insult to his work, so he cursed and stepped forward, raising his whip and intending to continue whipping.
As a result, when he stood in front of the little goblin, the little goblin suddenly raised its head. In a pair of white eyes, no pupils could be seen. There was a long stream of saliva flowing from its mouth, and its face was
Showing a ferocious expression that he had never seen before, he suddenly pounced on the mage apprentice, and then opened his mouth and bit the mage apprentice on the neck!
The mage apprentice screamed in panic. The sharp pain from his neck and the feeling of gush of blood made him terrified. While screaming, he desperately tried to push away the little goblin pressing on him.
He thought the little goblin might be crazy.
It's a pity that he was not able to do this. The little goblins are much stronger than him. These little goblins who usually do heavy hard work have great strength that is completely unmatched by their short bodies. They can even lift several kilograms.
The iron chain ball was thrown hundreds of meters away. How could the weak mage apprentices compete with it?
So soon, the mage apprentice disappeared, and this little goblin just lay on the mage apprentice's body and began to eat...
This kind of scene didn't just happen in this corner. As time went by, similar scenes appeared all over the fortress. In some places, the mage apprentices were bitten, and in other places, the goblins were biting.
Biting each other.
When the people in the fortress heard more and more screams, they realized something was wrong, and the alarm bell of the entire fortress was sounded urgently.
The heroes who were still chatting in the interior hall and studying how the demon would attack the fortress rushed out immediately after hearing the alarm. Escher, Solam, Gru and the Bradaka
All the heroes of the kingdom are here, but Alantil is still in the military camp where the undead troops are stationed because of his status as a necromancer.
"What happened? Is the devil attacking!?" As soon as Eskel walked out of the interior hall, he immediately summoned people to inquire about the situation.
A mage hurried over and reported in a panic: "Sir, it's... they are little goblins. They seem... like..."
"What does it look like?" Hearing his hesitation, Escher became very angry. He stamped his feet and cursed: "Hurry up and say it!"
The mage who reported the report secretly glanced at Gru next to him, then gritted his teeth and said: "The goblins seem to have rioted!!"
Hearing this answer, Eskel was stunned. This answer obviously exceeded his psychological expectations. He did not expect that the alarm bell was ringing not because of the demon's attack, but because something was wrong with the goblins under his control.
"What on earth is going on?" Escher frowned and asked, "Speak clearly!"
Because the goblins were the first to come into contact with the water, so when the virus in Roy's demon blood broke out, it was the goblins who were in trouble, and then the mage apprentices who were the overseers, so when the virus
After the outbreak, the first impression given to the people of Bradaka was that the goblins were rioting... The same was true for the mage who came to report, so when he answered before, it seemed a bit difficult to say.
As expected, when Gru heard about this situation, even as an ally, he was a little annoyed and couldn't help but sarcastically said: "Your Kingdom of Bradaka always seems to have such problems..."
The mages of the Bradaka Kingdom have long been famous for exploiting slaves in the world of Ashan. To show up like this at such a critical moment really makes people feel speechless.
Esquire was also embarrassed. After hearing the riot by the goblins, he probably understood what was going on, so he said with all his heart, "Damn it, I've warned you a long time ago, be kind to those lower-class races."
Some, you just don’t listen!”
The mage blinked, and although he looked aggrieved, he did not dare to refute, and asked: "Lord Eskel, what should I do now?"
"What should we do? No need to ask!" Escher said angrily: "Send troops immediately to suppress those rioters!"
