Chapter 267 There is a traitor among us

Esquill's decision to abandon the city is very difficult!

A fortress like Dendera Fortress, which can accommodate more than 100,000 troops, is quite huge, covering an area of ​​nearly ten square kilometers. It took nearly two years to build manpower and material resources. Once the fortress is abandoned, It means that all the previous investments are in vain, and it will also put the coalition troops in a situation where there is no danger to defend, which can be said to be very dangerous.

But... they had to do this, because the water source was already polluted by the plague, and it would be meaningless to continue to hold on to it, it would only increase the number of people infected with the plague, and every day the troops stayed in the fortress was equivalent to Hundreds of soldiers are going to be lost, people are panicking, morale is low, and there is no combat effectiveness. If the enemy really appears, it is still uncertain whether the coalition can fight or not. If it is like this, it is better to abandon this fortress completely. , let yourself die and then live!

Although the heroes were unwilling to be reconciled to Esquill's decision, they were all leaders in their respective races. As far as intelligence is naturally excellent, of course they could figure out the pros and cons, so after being silent for a while, everyone unconditionally support Escher's decision.

When the decision was made, the heroes breathed a sigh of relief, and Gru smiled bitterly: "In the end, we still have to be like Arantier..."

Soram said angrily: "Even if we have to go out of the city, but I still say that, Alan Thiel must be the vanguard to meet the demons, our troops are now demoralized, only the scumbags under his command are not affected. , at a moment like this, he should do his duty!"

"Yes, that's right!" Hearing this, the rest of the mage heroes also nodded and said, "The coalition troops can be stationed behind!"

The Mage of the Bradaka Kingdom and the Necromancer of the Kingdom of Hellas did not form a grudge in a day or two, so after hearing the proposals of the Mage Heroes, Gru could only be silent without commenting. As for Elaric, even more so...

Now that they decided to abandon the fortress, the coalition forces quickly moved quickly, and the intact troops began to withdraw from the fortress in an orderly manner while guarding against zombie attacks.

However, after it was confirmed that the priest's magic was ineffective against the infected, the coalition had no choice but to give up the remaining infected who were scratched in the process of fighting against the zombies, but had not yet completely mutated. They are up!

This decision was cruel, so in order to prevent the wounded from losing control and mutiny, the heroes decided to hide the truth from them after discussing it for a while.

They gathered these infected but unmutated people and placed them in the same camp, and erected a large number of canvases around the camp to block their sight and prevent them from knowing the sight of the fortress defenders evacuating.

Originally, as long as the measures were taken properly, these infected people might not know the decision until they died, but unfortunately, and for some unknown reason, it didn't take much time for these infected people to know that they had been abandoned!

There were hundreds of similar wounded people. When they heard that they had to stay in the fortress and could not evacuate with the troops, the wounded people suddenly burst into an uproar. Due to the instinct of survival, they always have illusions and feel that they can still be rescued. Now the coalition forces have made such a cruel decision, which makes them completely unacceptable when they are desperate.

Especially among the wounded, many of them were once noble mages, which intensified the conflict. When these infected people were clamoring for Esquel to find an explanation, they and the soldiers guarding them. There was a fight between them, and the infected people were already heartbroken. Under such circumstances, they could not care about their colleagues.

There are many infected people who open their mouths and bite the guards!

As a result, among the guarded soldiers, nearly a hundred more infected people suddenly appeared...

The scene was out of control for a while, and when Esquill and the others got the news and rushed to suppress it with a large army, they saw a mess and corpses all over the place.

No way, the bitten people are also red-eyed. Everyone understands what will happen after being infected. For these infected people who have harmed themselves, they simply adopted the attitude of killing them all and aimed the butcher knife at them. ex-colleagues...

This is actually the most terrifying part of the t virus. Human relations, friendship, family affection and even love will all be vulnerable at this moment...

All the infected people died, including the guard soldiers who were bitten. This was a massacre. In order to prevent future troubles, the rest of the guards had to deal with it in cold blood. Esquel watched this scene, his face was twitching all the time. , but in the end it could only be turned into a sigh.

"Burn their corpses!" he ordered, after all, if left alone, these corpses would stand up again after a while.

Then, he began to investigate how the news was leaked, which led to this tragedy.

If no one tipped off these infected people, they would not find themselves abandoned until the army withdrew from the fortress, but now that the news is leaked ahead of time, it is necessary to find out who did it.

Originally, Esquel thought that it might be a friend of the infected who did it quietly, but what he didn't expect was that in the end, after checking, all the spearheads turned to the priests brought by Elaric. Priests! Because the last contact with these infected people is those priests who want to continue to study what the plague is about!

Alright now, Elaric just came to Dendera Fortress not long ago, and he carried a big pot on his back! When he was questioned by Esquier angrily, he still had a confused expression on his face, not knowing what happened.

Combined with the arrogant attitude of Elaric at the beginning, this incident caused a huge rift between the Erathians and the Bradakas in an instant.

This is especially true when Elaric finally checked and searched, and he could not find out which priest had leaked the news. The Bradaka people thought that Elaric could not find out, but wanted to. It's just to cover up the priest under his command, but God is pitiful, Elaric really didn't find out who did it...

Although a lot of time was delayed because of this incident, the troops of Dendera Fortress were still withdrawing according to the scheduled plan. They had to finish this matter before dark, because if it was night, when the troops were in chaos, they might be out again. There will be many more victims due to the attack of the mutants.

In the evening, when the sun was gradually sinking in the west, the fortress completed the evacuation, the high city walls were abandoned, the gates of the fortress were also blocked, and Dendera was completely reduced to an empty city... Oh, no, it should be said that it was a city. A city overrun by zombies.

When night came, the mutants drilled out of the sewers to start their activities, but they couldn't find any blood to eat, so they roared angrily.

The coalition forces retreated to the plains about two kilometers away from the fortress. In order to prevent the mutants in the fortress from escaping, they also specially set up a large number of mine magic traps near the fortress as a warning, but even so, the soldiers Hearing this terrifying roar from the fortress far away, I still couldn't help but shudder in my heart.

"Alas, it always feels like we're jumping from one trap into another..." Esquill said to the rest of the mage heroes, before an embarrassing silence.

"Now I can only hope that the demon will appear as soon as possible!" Gru said: "If it were me, the moment when the evacuation was just completed is the best time to attack, and it is night again, so That demon is very likely to appear tonight!"

"Get ready!" The lightning on Soram's body quickly ran around in a circle, looking at the dark night sky ahead with sharp eyes.

Elaric did not speak, and huddled in the corner of a group of heroes, looking a little abnormal.

He couldn't help but be abnormal, because just now, a priest came to him and quietly reported something in his ear.

Among the pastor troops he brought this time, there was a pastor who disappeared without knowing when!

When he got this report, Elaric determined that the missing priest was most likely the one who informed the infected person about the evacuation!

"Damn it! There's a traitor among us!" Elaric was cursing inwardly at this moment. He couldn't figure out who the missing priest was, but he couldn't investigate the matter anymore. Because once said, he Elaric will be the target of all the blame, those nerd mages of Bradaka, will put all the sins on his head...

So now, he can only pretend that nothing has happened, and wait quietly with the other heroes.

Time passed little by little, when it was almost midnight, there was a slight sound of water in the night, and a figure suddenly appeared in the river flowing through the Grand Canyon!

It was a man dressed as a priest. He held a cross necklace in his hand and a hammer of justice on his shoulder. see.

Needless to say, this priest is the one missing from Elaric's army...

"This position is already far away from the fortress coalition, and even Arantier's undead troops have been left behind, almost..." The priest whispered to himself, and then his expression relaxed a little.

At this moment, his figure suddenly appeared blurry for a while, and the whole person gradually changed his appearance. From the original image of an inconspicuous greasy uncle wearing a priest's robe, he gradually changed into a man with reverse wings on his back. A female succubus with flames on her hooves!

If Roy was here, he might be able to recognize it at a glance. The succubus in front of him is the Bainia he saw back then!

As a high-ranking demon, Bainia has the same magical talent for transmutation as her sister Baiara. She hid in Elaric's priests, and even the angels couldn't detect the existence of her demon...

"Hahahaha!" After Bainia finished her transformation, she couldn't help but let out a shrill laughter: "I finally escaped, Baiara, my dear sister, wait for me, I will come back to you soon Yes! But now, I'm going to find my mighty ally..."

After speaking, Bainia moved her anti-knuckle demon hooves and ran all the way to the distant forest. Only a series of scorching flame footprints on the ground left the mark of her past visit...
