The frontier residents of Cantero have never seen such a terrible scene, and it is not an exaggeration to say that hell has reappeared.In the yellow sand all over the sky, the Zerg the size of a hippopotamus suddenly attacked at the speed of a panther, and the dust stirred up made the border residents who were unable to react in time become the Zerg's meal.

"Zerg? Zerg that eats people..."

"Damn it, how could the Zerg appear on the border of Cantero."

The Cantero people who reacted escaped from the Zerg's capture range as quickly as possible. They screamed and begged, and some despicable people even pulled the old, weak, sick and disabled by the side, and threw them into the mouth of the wriggling Zerg. In exchange for a miracle of escape.

"Help me, please help me."

When Lucius arrived, a young man with a broken body held out his hand to him.Beside the other party, a little girl less than five years old let out a heart-wrenching sob.

Lucius walked to the young man in three steps at a time. After a brief inspection, he gave him a happy one.

"Hold my neck tightly." Lucius picked up the crying little girl with one hand, and then pulled out two trembling children from the alley with messy footprints.

The detection power of the Zerg is no less than that of the orcs, so it is useless to hide, and they can only escape as much as possible.

With three children, Lucius couldn't exert all his strength, so he could only protect the old, weak, sick and disabled who caught up with him, and fled to the temple or military base in his memory.

"Hold on a little longer." Lucius tied the little girl under the age of five to his back with cloth strips, so that he could wield a sword or use temple magic.

With his unremitting efforts, some Zerg with low intelligence retreated three feet because of fear of his power, allowing the timid refugees to breathe.

"Your Excellency, why are you here?" Cantero's border soldiers were busier than Lucius thought.Because the country's land area is too large, and Cantero has lost a large number of young and middle-aged people in the conflicts in recent years, there are not many people who can manage things.But fortunately, Seyes' ability to control the army is very good, so none of the Cantero soldiers Lucius saw fished in troubled waters.

"The temple has been requisitioned?" Lucius put down the little girl on his back, took the nursing tools handed by the master, and cleaned the sword that could not see its original color: "The Zerg army hasn't broken through yet. The first line of defense at the border!"

"No, but it's coming soon." At the time of life and death, the chief didn't care about the old enmity between Cantero and Queen Obsta, and only hoped that a powerful combat force like Lucius could stay for a while longer. Block those difficult high-level insect soldiers for Cantero.

"We have already sent a distress signal to the capital, and we only hope that reinforcements will arrive soon." The chief wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, looked at the overcrowded fortress, and couldn't help showing a wry smile: "You also know that the temple in the backcountry What kind of virtue, even if the Papal State subsidizes priests and nuns in remote areas, compared with the cost of maintaining the temple, it is completely insignificant."

Moreover, in terms of promotion channels, there are very few examples of bishops from remote places being promoted to the Papal State.In the long run, everyone knows the strength of these temples.

"In order to ensure that the temples in various places are not breached, magicians who are good at defensive magic are sent to remote temples, so the fortress can only rely on soldiers to maintain safety." Seeing a young face in front of me made me feel very uncomfortable. "Cantero's border defense equipment is not as advanced as Odin or the Grand Duchy of Aquique, which is eye-catching."

Lucius hated this kind of ambiguous questioning, especially when the other party mentioned his home country, and then praised him secretly, making Lucius' newly raised favor for the principal disappear without a trace: "If If Cantero doesn't start a war, maybe there will be more men here."

The boss didn't expect Lucius to go straight back. After all, the other party had a very noble face, so the boss thought he was a clumsy person.

The Zerg's attack was only violent at the beginning, and after dark, the Zerg soldiers could not be seen, as if they evaporated without a trace in an instant.

"Maybe it's a Zerg trap." Lucius knew as much about dark creatures as a professional adventurer.

Although the Zerg are not believers of evil gods, and have not appeared in the public eye for hundreds of years, based on folklore and ancient literature, it can be known that the Zerg is active at night.

Even humans launch surprise attacks at night.

"I'll go check it out, don't let the king worm's guards come." Lucius thought that the Zerg would launch a suicide attack in the dead of night.But he didn't see the Zerg until eleven or twelve o'clock, so he had a bad feeling: "Do you have starry sky stones? The ones that haven't been polished."

The master found a pair of gloves specially made for patrolling, inlaid with starry sky stones.

Lucius took the basic supplies, left from the back door of the fortress, and followed the traces of the Zerg to explore.

It would be understandable if only a part of the Zergs disappeared, but Lucius walked three to four kilometers and searched almost all the places where the Zergs might be listed as strongholds, but he didn't see the Zerg team or even a low-level Zerg soldier.

It's not right, it's very wrong.

Lucius frowned more and more, and at the same time accelerated the search progress.

Fortunately, most of Cantero's borders are wastelands with no hiding places. In addition, the Zerg's size is too large, and the traces left behind are difficult to clean up, so Lucius finally found a shocking clues.

In a dilapidated temple tomb, three adults could pass through the bottomless cave at the same time, almost forming a vertical arc.

Perhaps this sentence is the entrance to the makeshift lair.

With this in mind, Lucius took a deep breath, and then climbed down the slippery dirt wall.

It has to be said that the civil engineering of the Zerg was done well. Even the temporary passage was made extremely firm, like a pyramid that was firmly pressed, making it very difficult for Lucius to move.

It stands to reason that the Zerg's nest should have food for feeding larvae and a variety of emergency passages, and even the "ground" and "walls" will be coated with sticky spider silk and highly corrosive venom.

But along the way, Lucius only took a little effort when he climbed down, and he didn't encounter any tricky traps for the rest of the time, as if he passed through a secret passage built by humans.

Wait, secret channel?

Lucius had a bad premonition again, then took out the pointer, and checked his position with the mini map, as well as the entrance of the passage, that is, the seat of the abandoned temple, and then connected the two, and extended it infinitely to... Cantero's capital.

"The target of the Zerg is Cantero's capital?" Remembering the rumors he heard when he left, Lucius put away the map as quickly as possible, and ran towards the exit of the secret passage.
