this is my ark journey

"Die, it's all these hateful infected people, they are the ones who attracted the regular army."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Could it be that an infected person did your wife's hanging outside!"

"But, if they don't come, I can still live!"

"Live like a pig and dog, and may be chopped up like the Trellan family at any time?"

"No! I just want to live, if there are no infected people!"

......

The voice was noisy, but every sentence was heard by Ren. Visible fear permeated the crowd, and some people in the back had already started to run home.

But most of them didn't run away. They knew that they had committed a heinous crime against the empire. Two 'riots', ten slaps and one killing, such a 'merciful' punishment was already delusional.

People with active brains thought that they could kill the infected person to offset their crimes, but no one would dare to move when they saw the ashes of the demon god.

Boom!

Ren leaned heavily on his halberd, and the loud noise echoed in the small town. Everyone maintained strange postures and stared blankly at the stage.

"Wake up, how long are you going to lie to yourself? How long are you going to endure humiliation in the face of tyranny?"

"Yes, when your neighbors are persecuted into infected people, you stand on the sidelines. Yes, the corpses hanging outside are just your family members, and you don't have to speak out if you are still alive. Yes, those gendarmes oppressed and robbed and killed them. You, too, can pretend not to see it."

"But when the butcher's knife is on your necks, who do you expect to speak for you!?"

Perhaps because of the power of Guda's suit, Ren's voice has also become much louder, echoing in the town through the microphone.

No one refuted him, this was something he had personally experienced, and Sorin stood in the audience to maintain order.

"But we just want to live, just want to live..."

Ren looked at a white and fat Ursus man, without persuading him or looking for reasons, he just shook his head firmly.

"You're lying to yourself."

"I..." He opened his mouth, unable to make any sound.

"I know you, you are the boss of the town's transportation department, tell me, how long has it been since there was no caravan to deliver supplies? And you—"

Ren looked at another muscular Ursus.

"You are a boiler worker in a small town, how long can the heat last in Lviv?"

The two didn't answer, and lowered their heads like bereaved dogs. This was their secret, but this secret was peeled off by Ren in front of everyone.

"Did you see it?" Ren looked at the dumbfounded crowd, with a strong voice: "From the very beginning, Lviv has no chance of survival, and all your taxes and heating bills have been embezzled. The slaughtered former mayor ran away, do you think his successor will be merciful?!"

No one answered him, the answer has already been written in everyone's heart.

Of course the successor will not, he will just continue to make money until every townsman has been searched for the last ruble, and then he will leave, and Lviv will be as deserted as the thousands of abandoned towns in the hinterland of the empire. People will change from citizens to villagers, and they will be more oppressed. Mines and infected people are their end.

"So who deprived you of the right to live? The empire, the tyranny! Self-deception is nothing but a slow death!"

Ren raised his fist, and the sound was like thunder. At this moment, the top of the 'eggshell' exploded with a bang, and the people screamed.

The steel plate and fragments fell towards the high platform, but Ashes didn't dodge, just stretched out his hand, and punched the steel plate flying.

"Ren, the Ursus army has started shelling, evacuate quickly!" Frost star growled beside him, but the man still didn't move.

He stood there stubbornly, facing the gunfire and roaring at the falling steel plates.

"Running now is death! Hiding is also death! Ask your hearts, it is also death, are you willing to use death to get a chance!?"

Ashes stretched out a thick finger, and roared to suppress the sound of the cannon.

"There is only one chance! Use your lives, your knives, say no to those who oppress you! Say no to this damn tyranny! Say you are a hero to your dead relatives, even if it is just a second hero!!"

The shells had blasted through the ceiling and fell in, exploding a ball of fire in the distance, while the fleeing crowd stopped at the same time, like stiff sculptures one by one.

No place is safe except with the rebels, the giant that seems to hold the falling sky, the infected shield that seems to hold back death.

No one is leading them, they are just a group of beasts ready to be slaughtered, but there is someone standing in front of them, setting the only way in front of them.

"Made, it's also death, fighting with these bastards!"

An old man rushed out first, picked up the knife in front of the high platform, and picked up the familiar shield.

"Yes, I fought with them!"

More and more people rushed to the front to pick up weapons, and death had come to them. They wanted to exchange their lives for another chance, and let the lords know that Ursus people are not easy to mess with!

Frost Star looked at everything in confusion, and when he saw Ren's back, he felt that it was a mountain, enough to cover the artillery fire.

The mountain took a step forward and took out a military flag, and the flag of the integration movement was fluttering with the pouring snow wind.

"Follow me, until death!!"

Chapter 180 Eighth Battle of Lviv!

Woo-boom! !

Cannonballs screamed in the air, followed by a dull explosion, fireballs sowed death, and shrapnel flew, cutting across the body like knives.

Looking down from the sky, the once beautiful snowfield town of Lviv has turned into a purgatory, a burning purgatory!

The ovoid shell that had been sheltering from the wind and snow had disappeared without a trace. Those beautiful two-story buildings collapsed in the explosion. Already melted.

"No one can survive. Lviv has become a purgatory, filled with nameless anger." A lieutenant sighed in front of the standing army formation.

From his position, there were no towns ahead, just a volcano belching black smoke.

"Sighing again, Maxim, don't you write two poems to praise the greatness of the army?" Other low-level officers were joking, and the cannonballs passing over their heads were like fireworks in a festival, which made them extremely excited.

The lieutenant glanced back at these smiling colleagues, and shook his head slightly: "They are all subjects of the empire, so there is nothing to admire."

The anger does not necessarily belong to the military, the anger of the people is the real volcano.

"Hey, you are spreading defeatist remarks again, be careful that you will be demoted directly to soldiers." The officers were disturbed and roared angrily:

"Those are traitors to the empire, they are sinners. For many years, no town has dared to rebel collectively, and no rebel army dared to stand with those dirty infected people."

Seeing the blank expressions of the surrounding soldiers, Maxim sneered: "There will be more in the future, and there will be more and more."

"Asshole, I want to report to the major!"

The officers were really angry, but before they could make a small report, orders came from the communicator.

"Third Infantry Regiment, advance!"

The order to start the war has been issued, and the flag of the double-headed eagle has begun to advance slowly. According to the military law of the empire, if the flag moves but the people don't move, there will be no mercy.

"You're lucky this time."

All the officers wore heavy helmets with shattered armor, their vision was blocked and they could only see the front.

Maxim, who spread defeatism, also stepped forward, the hot city was zooming in on his eyes, and he felt that he was heading towards hell.

Boom, boom, boom...

The sound of heavy footsteps crushing the snow field, the neat military formation pressed forward like a mountain, and the 'shooting stars' passing overhead and the burning city in the distance set off each other, forming a perfect picture of war.

The officers wearing military coats and holding binoculars on the top of the hill are undoubtedly the best viewing places.

"The firepower is not enough. It's a pity that there is no land ship, and we can directly use naval guns to level it to save trouble."

"You don't even look at the character of the enemy. It's just a group of mobs who don't even have weapons. If you don't get killed by this kind of firepower coverage, you will be insane."

Bowles scanned the town back and forth, listening to the gossip of the officers around him.

The firepower is indeed insufficient. As a town with more than 1 residents, Lviv covers a relatively large area. More importantly, it has its own "protective cover". Just blowing up the shell will waste a lot of shells.

"Don't be so optimistic. If the enemy reacts quickly enough, they can hide underground. After entering the city, search with a large group. We must kill that armored man on the spot!"

"Don't worry, such a big goal will never escape."

Ember gave the impression that it was as bulky as a mountain, and had a great advantage in frontal combat. It was purely delusional to use it to escape. The drone was searching back and forth in the snowstorm.

The black Ursas army was advancing, and the forward was not far from the outer wall of the town. The major general suddenly raised his hand.

"Let the artillery cease fire, it's not that simple."

Ok?

Before the order was issued, they subconsciously threw away the binoculars and covered their eyes.

At this moment, a beam of blue light tore through the snow curtain and slammed into the front of the army formation.

boom--

The warlock in the center of the army formation activated Originium skills, like a protective shield was raised, but the azure blue light beam blasted on it, and the energy hedge rippled like a white ring.

Moments later, the protective cover collapsed, and the beam of light hit the shield again, turning the steel into particles, and the iron bastard seemed to crush the attackers and melt like ice and snow.

The strong energy kept moving forward, and it ran through the array of lines before it was exhausted. Maxim, who was walking in the forefront, only had time to turn around, and saw that he was swept out of a road to hell.

The human body and steel within the ray melted, and the left half of his colleague who was about to report him just now disappeared. The remaining eye on his head looked at him blankly, and then fell down in the snow with a 'poof'.

What kind of origin stone skill is this...

The lieutenant's brain became dull, and he blasted away the army formation in an instant, killing and injuring dozens of people. Before he had time to think about it, the superior's roar came from the communicator.

"Third Infantry Regiment, charge!!"

No one knows how many times this Originium skill can be used, but any commander with a normal IQ would not let the troops get together as a target.

More warlocks were releasing their skills, and the army sped up rapidly.

"charge!"

Assaulters jumped out of the gap, with airborne soldiers carrying jet packs on their heads. They went up and down to seize the landing field and open a breakthrough for the Iron Turtles behind.

Especially the paratroopers, they took on the role of scouts at the moment of take-off, but found that there was no large group of enemies beside the ruined wall, only a giant raised his hands towards them.

"Spot the target! Shoot!"

The regular army was able to shoot in the air, and sparks flew all over Ren's body when shot by the crossbow arrows, but he remained motionless. This level of attack was like scratching an itch.

"Francis Arrow Rain!"

The advantage of the Lord of the Rings is reflected, the dragon emblem ring allows him to release magic twice at the same time, and the ring of the old man makes him almost instantaneous.

Dozens of short soul arrows flew into the sky, causing these paratroopers wearing only light armor to fall down like turkeys, and more than 20 people gave them for nothing on the spot.

The intelligence said that the armored man is not a melee warrior?How can you still know the origin stone skill? ?

The airborne captain used his backpack to forcibly dodge, and saw that Renn was fighting with a halberd. It was clearly a turret, a turret with more firepower than any warlock!

The ruins were used as a cover, and they were wearing heavy armor. Ren fired against the firepower. He released his magic twice, and turned and ran after the armor-piercing assailants stepped on the outer wall of the city.

Ashes who can use the insidious trick of 'Carmen' is by no means those knights who are full of honor in their minds. Renn ran simply and decisively, and ran a group of panting attackers who climbed up the town and yelled.

"What a despicable bastard, pursue!"

The city was full of ruins, and the man in armor would lose his target if he drilled casually, but Ren ran ahead. The once-flat main road was covered with all kinds of rubble, and he couldn't run fast even in heavy armor.

Do you think you can catch up with me with a surprise attack?

Ren turned his head and smiled sinisterly. He smashed the bricks and tiles with his body, and roared with the captured portable communicator:

"The first group, let them suffer!"

As soon as the voice fell, dense crowds of people emerged from the dilapidated houses on both sides of the road. Most of them were dressed in civilian clothes, and their weapons were only a saber or a crossbow. They couldn't break through the enemy's armor at all, but they were just the recipients of Rennes' gift. .

"Throw!"

With an order, dozens of clay pots were thrown at the commandos on the road. The pots exploded when they hit the ground, and then released a large amount of flames.

The street was turned into a sea of ​​flames, the commando instinctively dispersed, and lost the cover of the formation, the crossbow bolts seized from the pickets and military police had room to play.

shhhhh.....

Arrows rained down, and the commandos were not heavy-armored iron kings after all for the sake of mobility. Many people were shot in the neck and thigh, and fell to death in the sea of ​​fire, but the Ursas regular army reacted very quickly, and the rest immediately Form an formation with three people, and use the gun sword to sweep off the incoming crossbow arrows one by one.

boom!boom!

At this time, several dilapidated buildings were blasted into the sky by Originium techniques, and dozens of civilians were buried in the collapsed buildings.

It turned out that the main force of the army had already stepped into the city, and relatively flexible warlocks were sent to the front to support the commando with firepower a hundred meters away.

The ambushers on the roof were only a dozen integration movement fighters. They held up shields to cover their companions' retreat. From time to time, some people were blasted to pieces, while Ren stood on the other side of the fire field, and his soul vision saw everything in his eyes. .

The vision penetrates the obstacles of the ruins, just like opening a small map.

The iron boots of the army were entering the town, but in order to chase him, the commando rushed forward a little, and in order to cover the commando, they sent out the armored warlock.
