The Sun King's Evidence

The rat tide rushed towards the stairs at the church door without interruption. The long staircase had more than thirty steps. Behind the stairs, human soldiers used tables and many carriage wrecks to build positions and resisted stubbornly.

Under the protection of Teresa's ice wall, the Ratmen frantically attacked the only passage without considering casualties at all.

"Fire! Fire!" Behind the position, dozens of musketeers fired continuously. The rat men rushed up in waves, and were beaten into sieves one after another. Under the command of Rick's guards, the humans The soldiers were united and resisted the rat-men's attack.

With only half of the stairs remaining on the road leading to the church, the Rats had to crowd into the narrow walkway close to the human position. The musketeers of the Mackensen Musketeers fired at one place. In this case , the power of the volleys was astonishing, and the Skaven attacked again and again, always leaving corpses on the ground in vain.

At this time, the Rat Man's weakness has been completely exposed.

What are the advantages of the Skaven in the war against humans?

There are two main ones, the first is technology crushing, and the second is strength in numbers.

The large number of Skaven can often directly swamp the human army. Humans are often in a hurry when faced with the siege of the Skaven, and the various high-tech weapons of the Skaven can easily cause devastating blows to the human army.

The Skaven once almost completely defeated the Empire. Five hundred years after the disappearance of Charlemagne, the Empire began to gradually decline. At this time, the Skaven almost defeated the Empire through the "Black Death". When there were not a few healthy soldiers in the entire Imperial military camp, the Skaven launched a war that swept across the entire empire. The Empire was almost vulnerable to the Skaven attack.

However, the last resistance force of mankind gathered in White Wolf City. The White Wolf Elector at that time was called Mandred. Under the ruthless rule of the White Wolf City, White Wolf City became the last stronghold of resistance in the empire. The rat army tried to attack the city. White Wolf City is located on a thousand-meter-high mountain, with mountain roads hundreds of meters long and tens of meters long. The high walls made the rat people suffer a lot.

The most rogue is yet to come. As we all know, the Holy Fire of the White Wolf God will always be burning on the high mountains of White Wolf City. The temple is built on the city wall. Any soldier - as long as he is a defender of White Wolf City, can easily obtain it. The powerful blessing of the White Wolf God (the effect is equivalent to stacking two rows of buffs on the body, and all attributes are greatly enhanced).

After fighting for several months in vain, the Skaven were unable to provide food supplies and were forced to retreat. Elector Mandred took the opportunity to launch the "Battle of Whistling Hills" and completely defeated the Skaven army, which earned him the nickname "Rat Exterminator", and was therefore successfully elected as the Emperor of the Empire, known as the "Wolf Emperor".

It is a pity that Mandred only served as emperor of the empire for more than twenty years. He was finally "retaliated and assassinated" by the ace assassin of the Eshin clan sent by the Skaven. After the death of Emperor Mandred, the elector of the empire They were suspicious of each other and could not choose a new emperor who could convince the public. The era of three emperors began.

So what is the weakness of the Rat Man?

First of all, the morale and discipline are extremely poor. The Skaven are a ragtag group of people with extremely poor morale and discipline. If the battle situation is slightly unfavorable, it will easily collapse completely.

Just like the situation before us, the rat people repeatedly attacked the human positions, but they often retreated without even touching the edge. If these rats fell a few more times, their morale would be shaken, and then they would be defeated across the board.

The Storm Rats at the back had to spend much more energy to regroup their troops than to direct the army to attack.

Secondly, the Skaven have a very despicable character, that is, they love internal fighting. This race has never stopped fighting among themselves since its birth. Multiple clans are constantly fighting each other, and there is a lack of trust between warlords. .

For example, the Skaven warlord Oseid-Abyss, who is currently commanding the Skaven army, is such a warlord. On the one hand, it anxiously watches that the human fortress cannot be conquered for a long time, but on the other hand, this Skaven warlord cannot He was willing to send in the most elite Stormvermin legions and rat trolls. Instead, he kept these armies on standby and just kept letting the clanrats and slaverats go up to die.

The Ratmen's tactics are fatigue tactics, but Oside is not entirely motivated by fatigue tactics.

The reason is very simple. This is called preserving strength. Defeating humans is called a victory over Skaven. It is a victory with little benefit. The lost troops are really his own losses. This is his capital as a warlord. If He accidentally lost too many loyal and hard-core soldiers, and he could easily be betrayed and killed by his subordinates. Too many people were eyeing his position.

O'Said-Abyss jumped angrily: "Damn it, Gray Seer Spratt! Where have it and its legions gone? They don't even respond to the bell! Nono! Never, never agree!"

O'Said didn't want to lose too much before he captured this fortress. The Skaven warlord had a wishful thinking, and his plan was like this.

Travel without attacking and preserve your strength.

Let Gray Prophet Spate and the army led by it go up and fight humans to the death, and then accept the results yourself! By the way, secretly "make" the Gray Prophet, receive its plague monk army and siege weapons, and you can become the most powerful Skaven warlord on the Gray Mountains! Yesyes!

Thinking of this, O'Said's rat face couldn't help but snicker. It had already hired rat assassins from the Essien family.

However, looking at the situation in front of him, the Skaven warlord couldn't laugh anymore.

This bastard Spate is even better than me! I just let it die! As a result, Spate, the bastard, didn't come!

This gray prophet is cunning and cunning!

Orsaid vowed that he would make the Gray Prophet pay for this.

Seeing this huge human city persisting in front of him, unable to be conquered for a long time, trouble began to arise in Oside again. The order of the Thirteen-person Skaven Council of Demon Rats was to completely capture Helmgart and let humans The small empire realized the power of the Rat Empire, and at the same time plundered enough human children, the Skaven planned to use warpstone, genetic engineering and alchemy to contaminate human genes to try to create a new terrifying species.

At present, the whole city of Helmgart has obviously fallen, and only this human fortress is still holding on. So should I fight or not?

Fighting, given the current strength of the resistance of the human defenders, would obviously result in heavy losses. Oside would not accept it. The lost troops would be his own, and the benefits would be limited.

Do not hit? He disobeyed the order of the Thirteen Council, and he would not get any good results when he returned. Oside knew that his subordinates were always coveting his position as warlord and wanted to replace him, and his colleagues were trying every possible means to do so. Kill it to death. During the meeting, the rats laughed and called each other friends and family, but as soon as they turned around, assassination, kidnapping, threats, extortion, bribery, and poisoning, all the Skaven warlords couldn't wait. Kill all your colleagues to become the most powerful one.

We can't let these bastards find an excuse to attack us!

Odyssey-Abyss shook his head, no, at least not now. He called his adjutant, a cunning storm rat.

"Have you found a way? Drill holes or climb mountains?" the Skaven warlord said to his adjutant.

"Drilling holes, having human gadgets and patrolling, they are all hairless things, small team, diedie! Climb the mountain, the human fortress is frozen, breakbreak! Nono!" The adjutant shook his head repeatedly.

Translated, it means that the team of ratmen who tried to invade through the tunnel were attacked head-on and wiped out. The ratmen who tried to climb the cliff and take a detour were blocked by the ice wall and could not break through the ice wall.

The Skaven warlord holds a halberd, which signals the army to continue the attack.

A large group of slave rats and clan rats attacked the human positions again, and then were defeated one after another. The soldiers moved a lot of ammunition from the arsenal on the city wall to the church. At least so far, there is no sign of the human army running out of bullets. .

Ossaid thought this was really evil. He shouted here for a long time, but the Gray Prophet Spate and his army in Helmgart never responded.

Isn't this bastard Spart planning to cause me heavy losses and then "do" me?

Orsaid-Abyss thought.

The Skaven warlord jumped to his feet in a hurry. His army had no siege weapons and no magic. It would be a boring battle to continue fighting like this.

There must be a human mage casting spells, using magic to stop the rat army from advancing.

Forget it, since Spat won't be needed, let's make other arrangements. Oside glanced at the shadow in front of him with a sly look. There was a man wearing yellow and black tights with hair on his head. With the belt, the masked dwarf mouse appeared from the shadows: "Once, who?"

"Find the human spellcaster and deal with it!" O'Said said to the dwarf mouse man.

"Hey!" A piece of green smoke came out from under the dwarf mouse, and then disappeared from the sight of all the mice.

The Skaven army continues to attack.

…………

The top of the Church of Justice, under the golden dome.

The siege of the church had lasted for most of the day, and it was already early in the morning.

Teresa stood in the middle of the platform under the dome, holding her staff. She closed her eyes and felt the strange movements of the rat men around the entire church.

Since the Church of Justice was very large, there were many places where the ratmen could sneak attack. Teresa had to concentrate. She could feel that many ratmen were trying to rush into the church through the windows, the path behind the church and the entrance to the basement.

The sorceress continuously released ice walls to block the threat of rat men. She used her magic power very quickly. Fortunately, compared to Veronica who was forced to release many large-scale spells, Theresa's mana reserves were quite sufficient. .

A fierce battle had been breaking out at the main entrance, and the sorceress knew she must not be careless.

Originally, Sulia had arranged for a few soldiers to protect Teresa while casting spells, but the ice energy overflowing from the sorceress's body made it impossible for the soldiers to stay for long. Teresa didn't like to be disturbed while she was casting spells, so she was alone now. A person stood in the middle of the platform. The battle on the front line was intense and the soldiers were exhausted. Several soldiers responsible for protecting her had already been transferred to the church door.

Because of this, the sorceress did not notice a black shadow above the golden dome. This shadow moved extremely fast and silently.

"Boohoo~" The short rat man used the hook to climb along the walls and windows of the church. It was as quick as a phantom and as lifeless as a brick when needed.

It took several hours to climb up, evading the warning circle set up by the sorceress, evading the patrol led by the demon hunter Abel, sneaking into the dome of the church, staying behind a mural, and carefully Waiting for the opportunity.

Now, the opportunity has come. The mana reserve of the female spellcaster in front of her is already insufficient. The frost energy around her is gradually becoming thinner. The dwarf mouseman took out three green warpstone daggers from his arms and equipped them one by one. On top, one in the left hand, one in the right, and the last dagger is wrapped in its rat tail.

"The junction of light and darkness is where the shadow is, yesyes!" The dwarf mouse saw the sun rising gradually outside. The sun's light broke through the darkness, but cast a shadow inside the church.

Assassination! here we go!

The short rat man suddenly activated, and its figure rushed out of the shadows like a swift rabbit, heading straight towards the sorceress who was maintaining the ice wall!

"Who!" When Teresa sensed something approaching her, the rat assassin was already only ten meters away from her!

"Ice Arrow!" Teresa immediately stopped casting the spell. The sorceress raised her hand and released a ball of rotating ice energy, which was released directly towards the rat man. The ice arrow passed through the cold platform and dropped a layer of frost.

Without saying a word, the Rat Assassin made several incredible somersaults in the air, dodging Teresa's attacks while getting closer to the sorceress.

Ice protection! Teresa immediately summoned an ice shield, and while the sorceress continued to cast spells, she summoned an ice cloak to wrap herself around.

The Rat Assassin took out a pair of darts from his arms and shot them out continuously. These poisoned darts were blocked by Teresa's ice shield. Just when the sorceress was about to call for reinforcements, the Rat Assassin immediately had it in his hand. A seal was made.

"film!"

"Whoa~" Almost in an instant, the Rat Assassin slid a long distance in the air. It instantly ducked behind Teresa and pierced the sorceress's heart with three daggers.

The sharp warpstone dagger pierced Theresa's ice cloak and opened up a piece of ice.

The two daggers stopped moving under the protection of the ice barrier and ice cloak, but the dagger on the rat man's tail drove straight in.

Oops! Teresa subconsciously wanted to pull out the musket and shoot, but then she realized that her right arm was still bandaged. At the critical moment, the sorceress quickly let go of her staff and threw herself out.

By forcing himself to lose his balance and turn around, his only good left hand held the rune gun - Blue Beloved.

The sorceress could feel the assassin's dagger piercing her chest and drinking her blood. Relying on the pain reminder, the sorceress pulled the trigger hard.

"Bang!" The sound of the gun and the sound of the sharp blade piercing flesh sounded almost simultaneously.
