Dawn of the Grey Tower

Chapter 524: Early morning coalition

Who is stronger, human or rat? At first glance, this seems to be a problem that does not need to be discussed at all. The rat-man symbolizes a faster reproduction speed, stronger physical quality, and more cunning and cruel. In contrast, their photophobic nature does not constitute a weakness at all, because humans will not perform much better in the dark than ratmen in the sun, right? Therefore, at the beginning of the plague, a large number of ratmen could easily sweep all the human settlements they encountered, until they had to face the most powerful traits and adaptability of human beings.

We always say that cockroaches are the most living creatures in the world, they can survive almost all kinds of extreme conditions. But did we ignore ourselves when we say this? Humans may not be inferior in adaptability. Compared with the ordinary organisms that need to evolve from generation to generation to change themselves, humans have adopted a different way to integrate into the new living environment. In the words of dwarves and elves, this is where humans have no bottom line. In order to survive, we can ignore tradition and take it for granted.

When the enemies in the dark exposed their bodies in the sun, people gradually recovered from the initial panic. They began to learn to observe their enemies on the city walls, observe their strengths, their weaknesses, and the generals quickly formulated a series of targeted strategies according to the characteristics of the ratmen. The poisoned raw meat was placed in the trap. Livestock. At the same time, the soldiers also realized that the ratmen ’s light body made their bones more fragile than humans, so more and more combat weapons, such as prisms, flail replaced the clumsy spears to become a team against the ratmen Standard.

The ordnance engineers studied the soldiers killed by the ratmen and analyzed the locations where they were used to attack. A large number of protective gears used to protect the neck and joints were manufactured and used. The large shield originally used to resist bows and arrows was also disassembled into a flexible small round shield or a leather shield.

But even so, humans are just not downwind in the battle with the ratmen, and there is still a gap from the upper hand of occupation. However, human beings have advantages not possessed by rat-humans, or that of native rat-humans, omnivorous. From the beginning, the carnivorous nature of the ratmen has brought them a huge hidden danger. When the plague completed the first stage of infection, most humans could not be transformed into new ratmen, but were directly eaten, although later The ratmen have a certain degree of reproductive ability, but the inferior ratmen produced are not as good as humans in physical quality.

Time is on the human side. If the rat plague can spread out uncontrollably, it is okay to say that on the wider land south of Cangshi, there are a large number of various creatures for the rat to eat and transform. However, the cold weather of the Cang Lion is doomed to be unable to travel without energy storage. They must eat regularly to ensure their physical activity. And as all humans hid behind the fortified walls, the survival of the Ratmen became very difficult. They do not have enough food to survive, let alone spend energy to reproduce.

This is especially evident after the end of the two battles between Wangdu and Molten Iron. After gathering too much force but not receiving the corresponding food, the entire Cangshi humans found that the community of the ratmen began to spread, and more and more The Ratmen chose to act independently from the large forces, so that they could more easily feed themselves. It is also easier to be hunted by humans.

Marcus followed Attics out of the tent. In the sunrise, a large number of flags symbolizing the status of nobility fluttered in the morning light, and the number of rat heads was often inserted on the top of those flagpoles. Some of the more radical aristocrats even chose to peel off the fur of the squirrel and paint their family crests on them to replace the cloth flags. This made the entire coalition camp a bit more brutal. The King's hand frowned, and whispered, "Looking around us, I can hardly tell who is the original party."

"These trophies can inspire warriors. Fear is the biggest enemy when fighting against the Ratmen." The Iron Knight understands what Marcus is saying, but as a general, he also knows that the nobles' incentives are not wrong. You know, most of the soldiers in this camp are not professional soldiers. In order to gain the right to speak in the coalition forces, many nobles almost drained the males among the survivors of their territory. And to make these temporary recruits effective, at least let them overcome their cowardice.

"There is no fear of faith in heart. It is necessary to use these things to make people not run away. The army of Cang lion in my impression is not like this." The hand of the king snorted coldly. He is right. As a lion governing a country with a chivalrous spirit, the past lords were more inclined to use moral virtue, loyalty, and glory to boost morale than **** spoils. They would choose to stand with the soldiers first, Wearing a burqa embroidered with family emblems, turning the body into a banner.

"Times are different, my little friend. For monsters, we don't need virtue and morality, their blood is not even worthy of contaminating the flag." The big knight said, and began to walk outside the barracks. Marcus followed with a scepter, but the expression on his face clearly said that he did not agree with Atticus's views, and those brutal ornaments would only make him sick.

The barracks in the early morning were quiet and silent ~ www.readwn.com ~ Only a few tents smoky smoke from the tent. This was the army chef preparing breakfast. The Atticus crossed the narrow road between the tents and walked out of the wooden fence. They saw a small campfire on the shade of the hillside beside the camp. An old elf with abnormal hair was leaning on his stag The snoring on the partner, the beard under his nose curled and stretched with the air circulation.

"Please stop." Two young elves in leather armours held short bows and stood up from the bushes on both sides of the camp. They said to the visitor. And more eyes, looked at the two from other places.

"This is the person you said can cure my headache? But I heard ..." Marcus was a little surprised when he saw the elves. He hadn't participated in the war with elves. The understanding of these neighbors was limited to books. painting. Although he also received news that a large number of elves appeared in Molten Iron City, he understood that the Iron Knight would not allow elves to be involved in the internal affairs of Cangshi.

"We do not accept the help of the elven army. However, a profound wise man is willing to assist us in his own name, and we have no reason to refuse to be right?" Atticus spread his hand, his relaxed expression looked like those two The short bow pointing at him does not exist at all. After explaining with the king's hand, the elder knight raised his head and said to the two elves watching, "I'll come to Lord Green Staff and hope he can treat my friend."

The two elves looked at each other, and they didn't know whether to let this human approach the elder. After all, Mulros gave them the order to not allow the Green Staff to suffer a little damage. But a little sparrow flew out of Atwood's thick hair at this time, passing over the elves 'heads, hovering over the two's heads, and finally fell directly on Marcus' shoulders. Seeing this situation, the elf guards had to put their weapons away.

"Elders are willing to see you."
