Chapter 918： dark abyss

Several people stumbled to the middle of the street, only to find that the same groups of serfs and soldiers all over the city took refuge in the middle of the street.

"This... is this the big earthquake that Baron Narant said, the dark abyss really hit our sacred continent!"

At this time, everyone was bloodless, watching many dilapidated houses around them continue to collapse, as if they had seen the end of the world.

In addition, they finally remembered what Narant said while they were panicking.

In fact, it wasn't just the people in this small town who remembered what Narant said.

It is the entire Sacred Continent, as long as anyone who has heard Narant's reminder, remembers Narant's prediction in advance.

For example, in the big city of the Duke at the moment, the 500,000 coalition troops stationed again have become chaotic at this moment.

Although President Theodore and many duchies or kings accepted Narrant's reminder, the problem was that they just sent the news back to the Holy Alliance.

And here in the garrison, they did not carry out the meticulous prevention as Narant.

In this way, when the big earthquake came without warning, the hundreds of thousands of troops basically settled in those relatively complete cities in the city.

The barely usable arrow tower on the city wall has already been arranged for enough soldiers to enter.

When a major earthquake came, the first to collapse were these towers that had been simply repaired, plus many stone houses in the city that were used as soldiers' residences.

For a while, the roar of the collapsed buildings continued from up and down the duke city, and the smoke billowed along with the panic and mourning of many soldiers.

"It turned out to be really hit by Narant!"

President Theodore stood on the city wall, looking at the city filled with smoke and dust, his face was extremely solemn.

At this time, the rest of the empires, duchy kings and leaders of various races stationed in the duke city also gathered.

Everyone looked at the situation in the city one by one, no matter how strong they were, there was nothing they could do at this moment.

"We should pay more attention to Narant's reminder!"

At this time, the king of the Nok Empire sighed.

Although most of the soldiers in the city had already run out of the stone house at the moment of the tremor, there were still many soldiers who were too late to avoid being buried, or were smashed and injured.

And before the war started, the coalition suffered such a setback, which is definitely a blow to morale.

"Yeah, but the results are not too bad now. Fortunately, there is a reminder from Baron Narant, otherwise the losses in our empire may be even more serious, and then it will be the real catastrophe!"

"With such a powerful shock, many buildings in our empire will definitely collapse. By that time, the civilians will have no shelter, no food, and we are attacked by dark creatures in front of us. That is the end that we can't take care of at the end!"

The King of the Blue Shield Principality nodded in agreement.

At this time, everyone suddenly heard a slight clucking sound.

Immediately he turned his attention to King Bach.

Sure enough, at this moment, King Bach clenched his fists slightly, and his face was still gloomy.

Seeing this, everyone knew what was going on without asking.

Narant kindly reminded that day, although they did not fully believe it, but out of caution, they sent a messenger back and issued an order to evacuate and transfer supplies.

In this way, although casualties and losses are still inevitable, at least it can be reduced a lot.

But the Bach Empire is probably not so lucky.

Instead of listening to Narant's advice that day, the Bach king disdained mockery.

Now it's good, it's really self-inflicted.

And everyone is not ready to persuade, this is just what King Bach suffered.

Of course, there was another person who did not listen to Narant's advice that day, and that was the Orc Prince Budolon.

At this moment, although this guy's face is also not good-looking, the orcs are living the most primitive hunting life.

Therefore, most of the houses where orcs live are caves or wooden houses.

It is estimated that the stone house building is only owned by the king of the orcs, and the loss will definitely not be as huge as that of the human race.

But if you look closely, among this group of people, there are still one or two kings of the principality, with a slight smile that can't help but laugh.

For example, Tak, the king of the Duchy of Tata, who sat next to Narant in the meeting hall of the Fortress of Thorns last time.

At this moment, King Tucker resisted the urge to laugh out loud, and his shoulders kept shaking.

If it is said that many other kings have listened to Narant's suggestion and made some preparations.

He, Tucker, was different, but issued a strict order that all cities must be evacuated from civilians.

Even though this would lead to a burst of confusion, Tucker felt that a magical existence like Narant would happen with a high probability as he said.

For nothing else, but because of his admiration for Narant.

Unexpectedly, this time his choice was completely correct.

This big earthquake will definitely cause a lot of damage.

But now the civilians and supplies of the Principality of Tata have been evacuated outside the city, even if the stone houses and buildings in the city are damaged, it does not matter.

After all, as long as the civilians are safe and the supplies are full, just a few stone houses and buildings can be repaired in just one or two months.

"Everyone, look at the sky over there."

At this moment, Theodore pointed to the depths of the land of death and spoke to the crowd.

Everyone heard the words and looked over, and the next moment, everyone saw a shocking scene.

I saw the sky in the distance, and there was a cloud of smoke rising into the sky.

Obviously, that is the smoke and dust that appeared after the collision of the two continents.

However, in addition to shocking, the smoke also told everyone another thing, that is, the edge of the dark abyss is not too far away from their duke city.

"The dark abyss actually hit a small half of our sacred continent, aren't they afraid of the collapse of the sacred continent?"

All the kings were surprised.

"I think that the lord of the dark abyss has had a lot of experience by constantly attacking the Terran Continent, so they probably know that this will not make our Holy Continent collapse!"

At this time, President Theodore shook his head and expressed his speculation.

The other kings nodded when they heard the words. Indeed, they also knew the details of what happened last time in Duke City.

Therefore, these kings also know what the black dragon told Narant and others.

"Everyone, everyone can start preparing now, the dark creatures have come!"

Theodore reminded the kings of the empire and duchy.

Now that it is confirmed that the place where the dark abyss falls is much closer than expected, the arrival of the dark creatures will be earlier than originally thought.

…

"My lord! Your lord, are you alright!"

At the same time, on the wall of the small city where Narant was stationed, Quick and others ran towards a tent directly above the gate in panic.

"I'm fine!"

At this time, Narant walked out of the tent in a calm tone, unaffected by the huge earthquake.

However, Narant's face was quite serious. Obviously, he was not happy that he had guessed that the earthquake was coming, but was even more worried.

Because of such a strong shaking, countless people and beasts will be affected in the entire Holy Continent.

The beasts are better, but the human race likes to live in the house.

Narant didn't think that his reminder a few days ago could completely avoid casualties, so he didn't know how much the Holy Alliance would suffer this time.

"Sir, your expectations have come true, the Dark Continent is really connected to our Holy Continent in the form of smashing!"

"Yeah, this is terrible!" At this time, the little girl Shirley also leaned up with the help of Vivian and others.

"Xue Li, are there any casualties in the city!" Narant shook his head helplessly and asked the little girl Xue Li about the situation.

"My lord, the bees found that dozens of stone houses collapsed in the city, and they did hit some soldiers and serfs transporting supplies."

"However, fortunately, those stone houses are the lowest stone houses, so the soldiers and serfs were only injured and had run to the open area with the help of other companions."

"By the way, my lord, Xue Li forgot. It seems that a soldier was buried by Shi Tui. It was an orc soldier."

"That guy was speaking ill of you just before the earthquake, but at this moment, an earthquake suddenly occurred and he was buried in it!"

"Hey, this orc really deserved it!"

Shirley's little girl showed a happy smile.

"That's good!" Narant also smiled slightly when he heard the words, and at the same time heaved a sigh of relief.

It's best if there aren't too many casualties in the city, and it's not in vain for him to demolish buildings in this city with such a big fight a few days ago.

And the shaking continued until an hour later.

During this hour, the entire Sacred Continent, be it human or beast, was trembling.

Especially the commoner serfs, because they did not have enough information channels and insights, they felt extremely fearful in the face of this apocalyptic shock.

At this small hour, everyone was constantly praying to the gods, hoping that the gods would bless them.

An hour later, when the shaking finally ended, these civilians and serfs had not yet been freed from their panic, but many people found sadly that the stone house they lived in had collapsed.

For a time, the commoner serfs were all crying and wailing at the collapsed houses.

However, fortunately in misfortune, there are duchies and empires that have followed Narant's advice, so that although many serfs and civilians lost food, they evacuated ahead of schedule and transferred food, avoiding greater losses and tragedies. .

Gradually, many of the serfs and commoners who responded to it stopped crying, and instead expressed their gratitude towards the sky.

"Thank you Baron Narrant!"

"Baron Narant is really the son of the gods. If it weren't for him, we would be buried in the house, and the sheep I tamed for the lord would also be buried under the stones!"

"Yeah, we scolded Baron Narant for meddling with his business the other day, saying he caused us trouble, we are bastards, we are guilty!"

In fact, not only these serfs and commoners, but also the minor nobles of these principalities and empires reacted more intensely.

For example, many nobles of the Tata Principality.

"It actually happened, I'm really lucky!"

"Yes, Baron Narant is above, please accept my sincere gratitude and apology from Akeli. Without you, my territory would probably go bankrupt this year!"

"It's more than bankruptcy, when the serfs have no food, I'm afraid there will be riots!"

"I thought Baron Narant was abominable a few days ago, and he actually bewitched our king to give such a ridiculous order."

"But now all this is really the blessing of Baron Narrant!"

…

Narant did not know that he had once again made a name for himself in this sacred continent and had received tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of thanks.

After the earthquake stopped, he immediately asked the soldiers to conduct a city-wide investigation to make sure that the wounded would not be missed.

After doing all this, he went back to the tent.

Because he knew that the arrival of the dark creatures was not far away, and it was time to recharge and wait for the crisis to come.

The speed of the dark creatures coming was faster than anyone had expected. Just a week later, the Duke City Rangers at the forefront finally discovered that the dense dark creatures were gathering towards the Duke City.

Woohoo!

With the sound of a horn, all the gates of the Duke City that were still open were closed, and at the same time, a large number of stones were filled in these gates.

And all the coalition soldiers came to the city wall and waited.

President Theodore, the king of the six empires, stared intently at the west, waiting for the enemy at the end of the horizon to appear.

Within an hour, a black spot suddenly appeared at the end of the horizon.

Immediately, there are more and more black spots.

"coming!"

Everyone took a deep breath at this moment.

Then, these black spots began to become clearer and clearer from far to near.

The first to appear were batches of skeleton soldiers.

These skeleton soldiers are slightly different from the skeleton soldiers that appeared in the past, that is, their formation is extremely tight, not much less than the army formation of the human race.

It is estimated that there are more than 100,000 skeleton soldiers on the horizon in the distance, but their formation is advancing in an orderly manner.

More importantly, the weapons and equipment on the skeleton soldiers this time are surprisingly good.

Whether it's a sword or spear, a leather helmet, or even a round shield, these skeleton soldiers have everything, and they're all excellent weapons that can still be used.

After the skeleton soldiers, there are a death knight and a headless horse riding a horse.

Of course, these are just appetizers. If there is only such a little strength, then there is no need to make everyone in the Holy Continent nervous.

What's really creepy is that behind these teams, there are huge dark creatures following.

Among these dark creatures, the dark giant python and the desert giant earthworm are all ordinary ~ The dark earth dragon exuding a terrifying breath is the death reminder.

In addition to the dark creatures on the ground, soon, dark bats and dark gargoyles were gradually flying in the sky.

"Everyone, do you think these dark creatures are just the vanguard of the dark abyss, or their normal strength!"

At this time, President Theodore asked the crowd.

"President Theodore, these dark creatures have already appeared when they went out last time. If the dark abyss only has such a little strength, then we think highly of him this time!"

"But I think, with such strength, it is impossible for the Dark Abyss to conquer other human race continents!"

The King of Nok Empire smiled bitterly, and the answer was obvious.

The dense crowds outside the city are powerful dark creatures for the human race, and they are obviously just cannon fodder in the dark abyss.
