V5.Chapter 117

Night falls.

Fallen Leaves City gradually fell into silence, almost no one could be seen on the streets, and even the displaced refugees gathered in some dilapidated houses. Ever since Fallen Leaves City started to eat orcs, there have been more and more weird and terrifying things happening in this city. First, some people disappeared at night, and later, even the patrol guards disappeared. These patrol guards are not helpless civilians. They are all advanced professionals, and even some of them are missing. The problem is more serious .

The noble council increased patrols and doubled the number of guards, but strange things still happened from time to time.

Darkness is spreading.

Excessive negative emotions can always become the nourishment of evil. It is said that there are fallen people in Ye Ye City, but this is not the worst news. The worse news is that there are undead in the sewers of Ye Ye City.

ghoul

No one knows how the ghouls appeared, but they do exist in the sewers of Fallen Leaf City.

The breath of darkness is spreading, and in this world where the mind is powerful enough to interfere with reality, many supernatural events occur because of worldly reasons.

There has always been such a legend in the folk.

That is, if a living starved to death had strong obsessions and resentments before, then their corpse might become a kind of undead after death.

That's the ghoul

Hunger had already spread in Ye Ye City, and the turmoil had caused the price of food to rise rapidly. Now it has nearly tripled in price, and even humans are reluctant to sell food at this price, because the orcs have been attacking the merchants near Ye Ye City. team. Winter is coming, orcs also need more supplies, and they shouldn't have a good time this winter.

The legend of the devil is brought up again and again.

The people in the lower classes began to believe that the devil had cursed the city, and some even believed that some of the nobles in the upper class had been bewitched by the devil, so those vampires with disgusting appearances would not care about their life or death.

hatred

It is a strong negative emotion and a dark force.

The confrontation between different classes in Fallen Leaves City has become more and more serious. Conflicts are gradually becoming more and more intense, and crime incidents are escalating one after another. At this time, as long as a little evil force is provoked, an even more terrible disaster will immediately erupt.

Dead Leaf Road.

This is a relatively remote area of ​​Fallen Leaf City. Nowadays, many people are reluctant to approach, and even the patrolling guards do not dare to come.

The first evil things happened here.

Some people found the corpses of orcs in these places, and the bones that were boiled and gnawed. This horrific thing made many people panic, and it made some people of insight feel sad.

hunger.

The increasingly scarce supplies have begun to obliterate the human form of some people. It's a very sad thing to push them into an even more terrible dark abyss

There was a strange noise near the sewer.

Then some mice ran out. I don't know why there are many mice living here. At first, some people ate these mice, but they were all poisoned to death before long.

The corpse was blue all over, and after sending someone from the Fallen Leaf City to look at it, they burned all the corpses.

Then it was completely deserted.

at this time.

In the dark corner, some twisted shadows gradually appeared, and they crawled out of the sewers, like hunters in the dark night. Go along dark corners. In the depths, there is a faint green fire that jumps. A long time ago, a group of refugees gathered here, but then all of them disappeared.

The faint screams came from a few streets away, and then came the sound of fighting.

Then, the footsteps of the patrolling guards quickly assembled, it seems that it is not the first time that they have dealt with such a situation, because the speed of the army support is quite fast

Everything soon calmed down.

The news is well blocked, and those ordinary people will never know what is going on here.

"Damn ghoul, damn dark creature"

Mark bandaged the wound on his shoulder, and then withdrew his long sword. This wound needs to be treated. Otherwise, it may be infected with corpse virus. He has always been responsible for blocking the news of the Dead Leaf Road to the outside world, and is also responsible for defending against ghoul attacks, but he is very clear that it is useless to do so, and passive defense can never solve these things. New undead may appear every day. The well-connected sewers ruined their plans to clean up the monsters, and as a man of insight Mark knew the city was just surviving.

food.

The ration of the army has also been tightened, and the noble council needs to survive the winter and wait for the arrival of spring.

When the snow and ice block the road, even the few supply lines that are currently available will have to be temporarily stopped. After the heavy snow blocks the mountain, it will be difficult for the material aid from the elves and the Druid order to be transported again.

"Burn all the bodies."

Mark glanced at the battlefield. Another comrade-in-arms died under the hands of the ghouls. Those poor people in the lower classes had no power during their lifetime, but they did not expect to be stronger than many professionals after death.

It's really sad

The hatred and resentment shrouded in the city are nourishing these undead. They are originally the product of these negative energies. I heard that there is also a problem at the mass grave, and now the task of the patrolling guard is a little tight. Mark couldn't help but think of everything that happened during the day. As an aborigines in Fallen Leaf City, he suddenly began to look forward to the arrival of the Lord. Maybe only he could save this city that was getting closer to death.

There have been recent divisions within the military.

Pessimism spread within the army, and the inaction of the aristocratic council during this period made many officers unhappy.

"Maybe it's time to think about re-lining up."

Thinking of this, Mark couldn't help but look at his companions. If he is to stand in line again, he must have enough background.

the other side.

In a dilapidated house in Fallen Leaf City, many refugees gathered together.

pray.

Lane's last words made many people understand what they should do. It is not that no one has prayed like Sauron, the god of half-elf in the past, but all these prayers have not been answered.

The power of the Sacred Holocaust is interfering with everything

The power of the gods has long been inferior to before, and the power of prayer cannot be conveyed to Sauron. Even in Modo City, it is necessary to rely on the temple to collect the power of faith.

shrine statue altar.

These are a central point where the power of faith is gathered, and only by relying on them can the gods sense the prayers of believers in the event of the catastrophe of the saints.

Fallen Leaf City is far enough away from Modo City.

The original temple has been abandoned, and the beliefs within the half-elves are relatively scattered. Some believe in the elf gods, and some believe in the human gods. This is the reason why many people did not follow Sauron to leave.

Now.

The gods they believed in couldn't save them, and it was only at this time that they began to pin their hearts on Sauron.

A humble altar.

Many refugees gathered around. They knelt down in front of the altar and prayed devoutly. When people are on the verge of despair, they are always willing to believe in gods, especially those before death who believe in gods the most pious.

A low prayer sounded.

The humble altar gathers the power of faith, which contains the power of the believers' prayers and begins to spread across the space to Modo City.

One's prayer is useless.

That weak power of faith cannot be sensed by the divine spirit, but when thousands of people start to pray at the same time, the power of faith that gathers together becomes very amazing, and the temporary altar is almost instantly radiant with a faint radiance of divine power. They are praying to Sauron for help, and this force gathers into a torrent, which can even make the spirit of God respond to everything that happens in Fallen Leaves City

………………

Modo City.

Tonight, Sauron couldn't sleep, because a huge and mixed belief suddenly broke into his divine sense.

Almost in an instant.

He had a spiritual connection with more than ten believers at the same time, and through this connection, he began to know everything that happened in Fallen Leaf City. The situation deteriorated faster than Sauron imagined, and the turbulent situation in the outside world made Fallen Leaf City even more difficult, because the weaker and weaker plane barrier of Saint Cataclysm also gave the devils an opportunity to take advantage of.

a moment

Sauron's thoughts came to the altar, but it did not form any form, because it was too much divine power.

In front of him was a black crowd of believers kneeling at their feet.

These poor people were ragged, their faces were yellow and skinny, and their expressions were numb. The desperate environment made them pin their last hope on Sauron, so the power of faith gathered was quite amazing.

Sauron's eyes crossed them and looked to the other side of Fallen Leaf City, where he saw an evil aura shrouded, a force full of death, darkness and blood.

That's the power of the evil god

Sauron could not determine which evil god it was, but it was certain that his minions had already lurked inside the city.

The rotten stench of death

Even if the main body did not arrive, Sauron could easily feel it.

at the same time.

In the most prosperous area of ​​Fallen Leaf City, he also vaguely sensed the breath of devils. These devils always like to corrupt people's hearts from the top, because the class that controls power is often the most corrupt and degenerate, and using them can achieve twice the result with half the effort. . In addition, in the vision of the gods, Sauron also vaguely felt some traces left by other existences, but it was too weak to determine what it was.

"very good"

"Ox, ghosts, snakes and gods are all here"

"Looks like they're all ready to take a share of the ruins of the Fallen Leaf City"

Fallen Leaf City has fallen.

There's hardly much of value here, but there's an astonishing wealth here for some beings

that's the soul
