Unlike the last time when Bru and Krisanna entered the city, there were a lot more guards outside the city than at that time, and their mental state was much worse.

This is because the tense atmosphere in the city some time ago and the shortage of staff have left them on duty almost twenty-four hours. Of course, they are in a bad state of mind, so they cannot get a rest.

On the new day, the weapons of these guards were hung crookedly on their iron belts, holding rough bread in one hand and holding buckles with horse milk and leather armor in the other hand.

"Damn it, I've only been sleeping for less than an hour."

"Ha, you're pretty good. When I got home, the woman was still whispering in my ears, and she couldn't buy anything expensive... I didn't fall asleep for a minute."

"Why wouldn't the damn Blue Dragon just come and burn that Charlie to death? In this way, he won't have to arrange our work like a death-seeking ghost every day."

"That bastard, other people's team has at least time to rest. Why do we do every time we are on duty?"

“…”

They dragged their sleepy bodies and stood on their posts, spitting out vicious curses and rude complaints about the current situation from time to time.

Although they kept complaining, they were still responsible. They sat on the railing after using skillful movements to set up the guardrail and resist horses.

If it were the past, even so early, there would be a large number of businessmen or people waiting to enter and exit the city.

For them, time is money, and it is very common to get up early and go into the dark for a day.

But now, such a scene has not appeared for more than a month.

Business and tourism are blocked, and cities with tens of thousands of people cannot be self-sufficient. It is inevitable that materials will be short and prices will soar.

Just when they thought today was another dull and boring day, suddenly there was a roll of smoke and dust in the distance.

"What is that?" asked a Xinding guard.

The old experienced guards squinted their eyes and then quickly climbed up the observation deck and looked into the distance.

If it is a big city in a big country, there will be specialists such as mages and rangers who will be fixed on the watchtower to investigate the situation. They can use "visionism" and "hawkeye" to explore the situation in the distance.

But of course, Schals City is not so luxurious. The only one who walks to the observation deck is an ordinary veteran, not even a first-class ranger.

After looking carefully, the veteran changed his face. He turned his head and shouted, "There are many people rushing towards this side, be careful, be careful!"

Damn it!

After hearing the alarm, both young soldiers and experienced veterans immediately sounded the alarm bell, and the alarm sounded immediately throughout the city.

All soldiers and knights who heard the alarm reached their hands at the nearest weapon, then rode on horseback or rushed to the emergency meeting point according to training.

The residents of the city immediately took back their belongings, quickly placed their children, the elderly, etc., then took out weapons from the home, waiting for the news with concern.

If it is an enemy attack, there is no need to mobilize them. In order to protect their families and property, they will also take the initiative to go to the city gate to help.

When the whole city started to move, the north gate, which was the first to warn, was filled with the sound of nervous walking.

"Antonio, what's going on?"

"How did I know, hell, they're coming!"

The visitor who made the soldiers nervous soon appeared in front of them, and dozens of people dressed like caravans rushed towards them on horseback.

"Stop, stop! Damn it, give them flags. If we don't stop, we will shoot arrows!" the commander shouted above the city gate.

At this time, the city gate had been pulled up, and the archers all bent their bows and arrows to aim at the direction of dozens of outsiders. Just by the commander's order, countless rains of arrows would pour out, forming a terrifying "Rain of Death".

The messenger next to the commander also ran to the watchtower at the city gate, then raised two flags and began to wave it.

It may be the arrows flashing with cold light, or the flags of the messenger played a role, and the dozens of people finally stopped.

The commander frowned and looked at the people, looking at the horrified faces on their faces and their breaths, unlike the horse thieves coming to the city.

What exactly are they doing and why do they seem to be hiding from something?

The commander's guess was quickly answered, and one person walked out of the dozens of people, and he shouted loudly: "Barney, is it Barney?"

The commander, that is, Barney, had a bright eye. He looked at the visitor strangely and asked loudly: "Allen, what's wrong with you? What happened? Are you so panicked?"

Alan wiped the sweat from his face, gasped for a few breaths and shouted loudly: "Half-ogreat, we see the army of half-ogreats! They, they are coming to this side!"

Barney was stunned for a moment, he looked at Allen in confusion and asked, "Half-ogreat? What are they here to do?"

Allen also opened his mouth wide and became stunned. After two seconds, he realized it and said angrily and anxiously: "How the hell do I know what they want to do? Anyway, they are all holding weapons, wearing armor, and murderous! And there are at least a few hundred people! When we see them, we can't help but turn around and run away! Stop talking, probably they will catch up soon. You guys quickly open the city gate and let us go in and take refuge!"

After hearing Allen's words, Barney nervously grabbed his sword, and his fingertips turned white.

Half-ogreats? Those bastards? What are they planning to show up here?

Could it be that I have no food, so I want to come here to grab it?

But what Allen is talking about, it’s fine if the weapons are gone. Half-ogreats usually hold stone pillars and wooden sticks as weapons. As for what armor is, I have never seen a half-ogreat who has worn armor.

He looked behind him. At this time, soldiers who were close to him had already come to support him. In addition, there were nearly a thousand soldiers on his city gate. Even if Allen said it was a scam, he should not be afraid.

"Open the city gate and let them in!"

The city gate that was pulled up was put down again as the turntable turned, and Allen and the people behind him showed a saved look, and then hurriedly drove into the city.

Just as Barney wanted to go down to ask about Ellen's specific situation, he suddenly saw strange noises and dust everywhere in the distance.

He stopped his body that wanted to turn around and looked back into the distance.

Not long after, a line-up of half-ogreat troops appeared within everyone's sight.

As the other party took neat steps and gradually approached Schals, Barney's face gradually turned pale.
