Ayss Domination

Chapter 671 The Last Hope

Night fell.

Fallen Leaf City gradually fell into silence, almost no one could be seen on the streets, even the displaced refugees gathered in some dilapidated houses.Ever since Fallen Leaf City appeared to feed on half-orcs, more and more weird and terrifying things happened in this city.At first, people disappeared at night, and then even the patrol guards also disappeared. These patrol guards are not helpless civilians. They are all advanced professionals. Even if they have some missing, the problem is more serious. Up.

The Noble Council increased its patrols and doubled the number of guards, but strange things still appeared from time to time.

Darkness is spreading.

Too strong negative emotions can always be the nourishment for evil. It is said that fallen people have appeared in Fallen City, but this is not the worst news. The worse news is that there are dead souls in the sewers of Fallen City.

-Ghoul!

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

The dark and corrupt aura is spreading. In this world where this idea is so powerful that it can interfere with the reality to a certain extent, many supernatural events have appeared because of secular reasons.

There has always been such a legend in the folk.

That is, if a person who is starving to death has strong obsessions and resentments before his life, then their corpses may become a kind of undead after death.

That's a ghoul!

Hunger has been spreading in Fallen City a long time ago, and the turmoil has caused the price of food to rise rapidly. Now it is close to three times the price. Even at this price, humans are unwilling to sell food, because half-orcs have been attacking merchants near Fallen City. team.Winter is coming, and the Orcs also need more supplies, and they should not have a good time this winter.

The legend of the devil is mentioned again and again.

The lower class people began to believe that the devil had cursed the city, and some even believed that the upper class nobles had been bewitched by the devil, so those vampires with abominations would care about their lives.

hatred!

This is a strong negative emotion, but also a dark force.

The opposition between different classes in Fallen City became more and more serious, and the conflicts gradually intensified. Criminal incidents escalated one after another. At this time, as long as there is a little evil force to instigate, more terrible disasters will immediately erupt.

Dead leaves road.

This is a relatively remote area of ​​Fallen City, and now many people are reluctant to approach it, and even the patrol guards are afraid to come over.

The first evil thing happened here.

Some people found the corpses of half-orcs, boiled and gnawed bones, this horrifying thing made many people panic, and it made some people of insight feel sad.

hunger.

The increasingly scarce materials have begun to obliterate the human form of some people and push them into a more terrifying dark abyss. This is a very sad thing!

There was a strange noise near the sewer.

Then some mice ran out. I don’t know why there are so many mice here. At first, some people ate these mice, but it didn’t take long before they were all poisoned.

The body turned blue, and after sending someone to look at it, the body was burned.

Then it was completely deserted.

at this time.

In the dark corner, some distorted black shadows gradually appeared, and they crawled out of the sewer, like hunters in the dark, marching along the dark corner.There was a faintly jumping green flame in the depths. A group of refugees gathered here a long time ago, but later all these people disappeared.

Faint screams came from a few streets, and then the sound of fighting.

Then, there was the sound of footsteps of the patrol and guards quickly gathering. It seems that it is not the first time they have dealt with this situation, because the speed of army support is quite fast!

Everything quickly settled down.

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

"Damn ghoul! Damn dark creature!"

Mark bandaged the wound on his shoulder and then retracted his long sword. This wound needs to be dealt with, or it may be infected with corpse poison.He has always been responsible for blocking the news of Dead Leaf Road to the outside world, and also responsible for defending against ghoul attacks, but he knows that this is useless at all, and passive defense will never solve these things.New undead may appear every day. The well-connected sewers make their plans to clean up monsters ruined. As a man of insight, Mark knows that the city is just lingering.

food.

The army is rationed and tightened, and the noble council needs to survive the winter and wait for the arrival of spring.

When the ice and snow block the road, even the few supply lines that are currently available may have to be temporarily stopped. After the snow has closed the mountain, it will be difficult for the supplies from the elves and the druids to transport them.

"Burn all the corpses."

Mark glanced at the battlefield. Another comrade-in-arms died under the hands of the ghouls. Those poor lower class people had no strength in their lives, but he did not expect that they would be stronger than many professionals after death.

It's really sad!

The hatred and resentment shrouded in the city are nourishing these undead. They were originally the product of these negative energies. I heard that there are also problems in the mass graves. Now the task of the patrol guard is a bit tight.Mark couldn't help thinking of everything that happened during the day. As an aboriginal of Fallen Leaf City, he suddenly began to look forward to the arrival of that lord. Maybe only he can save this city that is approaching death.

There have been disagreements within the army recently.

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

"Maybe we should consider standing in line again."

When Mark thought of this, he couldn't help but look at his companions around him. If he was to stand in the line again, he must have enough background.

The other side.

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

prayer.

The last words left by Ryan made many people understand what they should do.It is not that no one has prayed like the half-elf god-Lord Sauron, but none of these prayers have received any response.

The power of the saint catastrophe is disrupting everything!

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

Temples, statues, altars.

These are the central points 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 outbreak of the saint's catastrophe.

Fallen City is far enough from Modo City.

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

just now.

The gods they believed in could not save themselves, and only then did they begin to pin their hearts on Sauron's body.

A simple altar.

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

A low prayer sounded.

The simple altar brings together the power of these beliefs, which includes the power of the believers’ prayers to spread across space to Modo City.

One's prayers are useless.

The weak power of faith could not be answered by God's inspiration, but when thousands of people began to pray at the same time, the power of this converged faith began to be astonishing, and the temporarily built altar showed a weak divine brilliance almost instantly.They are begging Sauron for help. This force gathers into a torrent, and can even make God's inspiration to what happened in Fallen City!

………………

Modo City.

Sauron could not sleep tonight, because a huge and complex belief suddenly broke into his divine inspiration.

Almost in an instant.

He had a spiritual connection with more than a dozen believers at the same time, and at the same time, through this connection, he began to know everything that happened in Fallen City.The situation was deteriorating faster than Sauron had imagined. The turbulent situation in the outside world made Falling Leaf City more difficult, because the saint's catastrophe's increasingly weak plane barrier also gave the demons an opportunity.

For a moment!

Sauron's thoughts descended on the altar, but they didn't form any form, because it was too divine.

In front of me was a black believer who knelt under his feet.

These poor people have rickets, yellow and thin faces, numb faces, and the desperate environment makes them pin their last hope on Sauron, so the power of faith gathered is quite amazing!

Sauron's gaze crossed them to the other side of Fallen Leaf City, where he saw an evil atmosphere enveloped, a force full of death, darkness, and blood.

That is the power of Cthulhu!

Sauron couldn't determine which evil god it was, but he was certain that his minions were already lurking inside the city.

That rotten stench full of death!

Sauron could feel it easily even if the body hadn't arrived.

Simultaneously.

In the most prosperous area of ​​Fallen Leaf City, he also vaguely felt the breath of the devil. These demons always like to corrupt people's hearts from the top, because the classes that control power are often the most corrupt and degenerate, and using them can play a multiplier role. .In addition, in the vision of the gods, Sauron also vaguely felt some traces of other existence, but because it was too weak to be sure what it was.

"well!"

"All the ghosts and monsters are here!"

"It seems that they are all ready to take a share of the ruins of Fallen City!"

Fallen Leaf City has fallen.

There are hardly too many valuable things here, but there is also a wealth that is amazing for some beings!

That is the soul!!!
