Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1034 Tu Town

"That's Guna, the doctor in our town. She's young and beautiful, and all the boys in the town fall in love with her, but it's a pity that no one likes Guna." The old mayor sighed, "Speaking of which It’s not easy for a child. She and her father moved to our town a month ago. Within a week, his father was killed by wolves while hunting in the mountains, leaving Guna alone. Fortunately, this child is quite good at medicine. Every day Go up the mountain to collect medicine, and if the big guys in the town get sick or get injured from hunting, they don’t need to go to other towns to ask for a doctor.”

Allen nodded. His mother, Lanny, was also a doctor in the Gobi town. He is well aware of the weight of a doctor in a small town with inconvenient travel. In the evening, the mayor set up a few tables for dinner in the open space in front of his house, and invited some important figures in the town to have dinner together. The young doctor Guna also took a seat, but she didn't toast to Allen like the others, and she just ate her dinner quietly during the whole process.

On the second day, the caravan left Squirrel Town after replenishing the necessary supplies. On the way, Allen was driving a carriage, and Rick and Fares rode near him on horseback. Along the way, I heard Rick constantly urging Fares to wait until he came back from the northern capital, and then go through Squirrel Town to simply chase the beautiful female doctor Guna. Fares, who is still a bachelor, has an embarrassed expression on his face, but judging by his appearance, he must be interested in Guna.

A few kilometers away from the small town, Allen suddenly heard an exclamation from behind, and then someone shouted: "Look, is that on fire?" Allen leaned out half of his body and looked behind the team. A plume of gray smoke rose from the distant horizon. The direction of Squirrel Town was even more flickering, and Alan's heart sank when he saw it. He jumped out of the carriage and beckoned someone to bring a war horse, and Allen got on the horse. At this time, the window of the carriage opened, and Lucy poked her head out inside and asked, "What's going on?"

"There may be an accident in Squirrel Town. Yesterday, the mayor invited a dinner. Now that there is an accident in the town, I have to go back and have a look." Allen went to Regis and Nelly again, and ordered twenty more soldiers to join him. Ride away together. `Others rested in place, and Fares clenched his fists as he watched the flames rising in the direction of Squirrel Town.

The wind was blowing head-on, and soon Allen heard the sound of horseshoes. Then I saw a woman running in my direction, and behind her were a dozen fast horses. The knight on the horse played with the woman like a cat catching a mouse, and he was not in a hurry to start. He just rode his horse to drive the woman exhaustedly, making a series of laughter from time to time.

Allen squinted his eyes, that woman was the doctor Guna. He raised his hand, and the Inch Fire shooters behind him immediately understood, and they used their legs to control the horse, while they unloaded the Fiery Rifle behind their backs with both hands, pointing at the rider on the opposite side.

The riders chasing Guna also found Alan's team, but they were not afraid, leaving two riders to control Guna. The rest rushed out, seemingly wanting to have a horse fight with Allen. Allen sneered, he was not interested in accompanying him. Swinging his arm down vigorously, the characteristic rough gunshots of the Raging Rifle sounded from the left and right behind him. The line of fire shot up into the air, and with one round of strafing, most of the riders on the opposite side were shot down. Seeing that the situation was not right, the rest wanted to turn the horse's head. Alan let out a long roar, and the Red King unsheathed, crossed a distance of 100 meters with a man and a knife, and landed in front of the rider.

Allen turned around and swept the knife, and the movements of five or six riders froze suddenly. Then everyone's clothes were torn from the waist, and blood spurted wildly. As if being swept by an invisible line, the rider's upper body slipped off, while the part below the waist was still sitting on the horse.

The two riders who were controlling Guna finally changed their expressions. They didn't care about Guna anymore, left the woman behind and turned around and ran wildly.

Allen withdrew his knife and rushed to Guna. The girl was exhausted, and seeing that it was Alan with red eyes, she pointed in the direction of the town and only yelled "Save me", before she passed out. Alan frowned, and handed Guna to one of his soldiers to take the girl back to the caravan. He himself led Regis and the others to continue towards Squirrel Town, but it was a pity that he arrived late, and the town was already engulfed in flames. ``

Allen asked Regis and the others to wait outside the town, while he abandoned his horse and ran into the town. Then he suppressed the sea of ​​fire with the ability of the king of fire, and a power spread around him in an instant, covering the entire town. The flames in the town seemed to be suppressed by an invisible big hand, and the flames gradually extinguished. A few minutes later, Regis and others also entered the town. However, after the fire, the town was never finished.

In the small square of the town, Allen stood silently. The residents of the town were piled up into a hill, and all men, women and children, old and young, had turned into charred corpses. In the hands of a child corpse, Allen saw the wooden horse he had chipped. It's just that the Trojan horse has been burned and the rest is in the child's hands. Allen gently broke it off, put it in his arms, and then turned around and said, "Find those murderers, and don't let any of them go!"

A copper blade in the team immediately responded to the order, and it didn't take long for the news to come. Allen and his party left the town, and re-entered Sentinel Ridge on the lead of the copper blade. At the edge of a small river at the entrance of Sentinel Hill, a team of horses stopped by the river. The war horses were grazing and drinking water, while a man crouched on the river bank and pulled his hand out of the river. The river was glowing scarlet, and flowed all the way to the small town under the mountain that had turned into ashes.

Suddenly someone said "Hey" and said, "Look, the fire in the town is extinguished. I don't get dazzled, do I?"

The man who was wiping his hands jumped up immediately when he heard it, and stood on a slope and looked in the direction of Squirrel Town. The fire that should have been burning for an hour or two in the town was really extinguished. His face changed, and he shouted: "It's a bad thing, let's go!"

A voice sounded: "Where do you want to go? How about I send you to hell?"

The man heard the sound and looked, but he couldn't see anything else. He only saw a smear of vermilion knife light like the bright sun in the autumn afternoon, dividing the world in his eyes into two.

But in the eyes of others, this man was split in two by a sudden red light. The light of the knife disappeared, and a silver youth stood with a knife, his red eyes slowly swept across the crowd. People swept by his sight seemed to be able to see their own corpses in his eyes. The scene was silent at first, and then there were killing sounds. The young man just sneered, dragged his knife and crashed into the crowd, and there was a bloodbath everywhere.

After Regis and his party also joined the battle, the forty horse thief team was declared wiped out. Before the action, Allen arranged several inch fire shooters on the commanding heights, so that none of the horse thieves escaped. Then they found a bag of luggage on the horses, opened it, and found that it was full of gold coins and food, presumably they were robbed from the town.

Allen sighed and asked people to send these things back to the town and bury them with the bodies of the town residents. It was already afternoon after finishing the job, and Allen returned to the caravan with his troops.

It is well known that horse thieves abound in the Dragon Bone Plain, just like the Dark Land where there are many bandits, horse thieves in the Dragon Bone Plain are also a major hidden danger in the surrounding areas. It's just that the plain is vast, and horse thieves come and go like the wind, so it's not easy to encircle and suppress them. What's more, who can say for sure whether these horse thieves are backed by big people, otherwise the Imperial Hall Moser Orr is on the other side of the Keel Plain, and how can the grizzly-backed armored army stationed in Moser Orr allow the horse thieves to exist until now.

Back at the caravan, Guna was already awake. There is no injury on the body, but the mental trauma is more serious than the physical injury, and now he is staying with Lucy in the carriage. Fares relayed Guna's words. It turned out that she went into the mountains to collect medicine early this morning, but she escaped unharmed because of this. Not long after their caravan left, a group of horse thieves attacked the town. They looted the property of the people in the town, and finally killed and set fire. When Guna saw the town on fire and rushed back from the mountain, no one could save her.

Later, she discovered for the horse thief that if Alan hadn't arrived in time, there wouldn't even be a single survivor in Squirrel Town.

After finishing speaking, Fares hesitated: "My lord, can you take Miss Guna with you. Now she has no home to return to."

Allen looked at Edward next to him and asked, "What do you think?"

Edward said lightly: "It's just an extra mouth, we can still afford it. Besides, she is a doctor, if she is willing to walk with us, it will be a good thing for us."

"I'll ask her." Allen walked back to the carriage, opened the door and got in. After a while, he came out and nodded to several people.

Fares exhaled, and finally let go of the big stone in his heart. Rick next to him bumped into him lightly, showing a meaningful smile.

The caravan continued on its journey and passed through the Keel Plain on the second day. After walking through a forest, along the forest road, I saw the towering gray city wall of Moser in the afternoon.

This largest city in the south is ten times more prosperous than Sardinia. Before entering the city, you can hear the voices of people in the city. The entry into the customs was very smooth this time, and no unsightly tax official suddenly raised the tariff. After presenting their identity papers and paying customs duties, the caravan entered Mosel and was instantly overwhelmed by the crowd.

The lively atmosphere in Moseral made Guna, who was already depressed, forget the sadness of the massacre in the town. She lay on the side of the car window and looked at the surrounding streets curiously. The streets of the city are far more spacious than those of the small town, and even if several carriages drive side by side, they will not be crowded. The buildings on both sides are covered with gray and white stone bricks, tall and solid. In the distance, spiers and bell towers can be seen everywhere, and on those buildings, the battle flags of the Bear Armored Army fluttered in the wind.

Fares chose this hotel named "Green Algae" as the caravan's lodging place, which is one of the bustling streets in Mosel. Across this street, on the other side is the Orlando Fair, one of several large commodity distribution centers in the city. There are many taverns there, shops are like a cloud, and the empire's north-south currency can be found almost in the market.
