Chapter 185: survivor
"I'm Vivian, the magician of the Senate...Is there anyone in there?" Vivian stepped down and waved his palms, creating a magical array on top of her head for lighting.
The soft light dissipated the surrounding darkness, and she saw the Gricken soldier who had died leaning against the wall on the edge of the downward staircase.
There are several demon dog corpses beside this soldier. Because of the time, these corpses are a little bit decayed, and they are filled with a disgusting smell.
Vivian frowned, but still walked down until the end of the stairs, only to see a gate protected by the magic circle.
A rustling sound came from the gate, and the bodies of several soldiers leaned against the door, seeming to be doing their last duty.
They stayed here until they died, and did not leave for half a step. When they starved to death here, they still sat here peacefully, enjoying their last time in this world.
Vivian walked to the front of these corpses and stretched out her hand to chant a supernatural spell. Her peaceful voice echoed on the stone steps, echoed in the wall, echoed in the hearts of the Ailan Hill soldiers behind her.
"Open the door! I am Vivienne, the magician of the Senate, and you are safe." After Vivienne finished singing the calming spell, she shouted at the door engraved with magic inscriptions with red eyes. Tao.
In her shout, the door was opened from inside, and a young soldier in armor came out with a long sword. He didn't button up the visor on his helmet, revealing an immature face.
Behind him was another young soldier, who looked like he was only eighteen or nineteen years old. They were the youngest two of the soldiers guarding Alan, and were finally ordered to guard behind this gate to protect the civilians behind them.
After they walked out of the gate, they saw Vivienne wearing magic robes. They knelt on one knee in front of Vivienne, lowered their heads and started crying.
Behind the two of them, several women led the child, looking at Vivian with horror, tears of excitement dripping across their faces.
"My lord! You are finally here!" An old woman grabbed Vivian's palm, knelt on the ground desperately, and sobbed softly. Because they dared not make a sound for so many days, their crying at this moment also suppressed their own voices.
It's hard to imagine them staying in a closed basement for so long. If it weren't for a dark vent that hadn't been blocked, it's likely that they would have become corpses long ago.
"We thought that this was our last." A woman holding her baby in her arms, looking at the Ailan Hill soldier standing behind Vivienne, whispered: "They rushed in, our man Then one fell... They did it for us..."
"It's okay! It's okay!" Vivian patted the woman's back gently, comforting the almost desperate mother.
"We have prepared water and food..." An Ailanhill officer walked to Vivian's side and said, "There is a building nearby where they can be housed, and it's still well preserved."
"Thank you." Vivian turned her face with tears and thanked the officer of Ailan Hill: "If you didn't take the lead in counterattack, maybe they would die in this dark place."
"No, you are welcome." The Ailan Hill officer's face flushed, then he waved his hand and said politely: "Everyone, come with me! I have prepared food for everyone, as well as water and water. A place to rest."
In fact, there are food reserves in the basement, but because these civilians have been trapped in it for dozens of days, their food was exhausted a few days ago. If it wasn't for desperation, these people wouldn't dare to make any noises at all, responding to those calls that sounded like humans.
After all, they had seen the brutality of the devil with their own eyes, and they were living in the basement and couldn't believe that someone would come back to save them. It wasn't until they had eaten everything and there was no way to persevere before they finally chose to take a risk.
It was the two soldiers who responded to the cry of the Ailan Hill soldiers, and they were finally saved and became the luckiest group of people in Alan City.
"Distribute the canned food to everyone, supervise them, don't let them eat too much..." The army doctor who accompanied the team checked the yellow-faced and thin-faced aborigines, and then prescribed some antiseptic drugs.
"Bring the waterwheel for bathing here... Let's build the bathhouse nearby... Let them take a bath, take a good rest and recover..." Putting away the stethoscope, this Ailan Hill military doctor kindly ordered Tao.
"About 40 civilians and two soldiers survived. This has to be said to be a miracle." Standing next to the ruins, the commander of the 9th Division headed by the commander of the group army said to Cape Luna.
"We should promote this miracle." Luna looked at these Gricken civilians, and said with great thought.
She looked at General Alfred next to her, and suddenly asked, "Where are the follow-up troops? If we now deploy troops to attack Barasso..."
"Don't even think about it, that will put our flanking forces in danger." General Alfred shook his head and said: "What we can do now is to strengthen this protrusion as soon as possible, and prepare to face the possibility of the demon forces. Fight back."
Cape Luna scratched her head and sighed and said, "If, if we can take back Barasso... maybe we can save hundreds or even thousands of civilians hiding in the basement like this..."
"Maybe you can't save one of them." Suddenly, a voice rang from behind Luna. When several people turned their heads, they saw a giant wolf sitting behind them.
"Introduce myself. My name is Borken. I am the leader of the wolf clan." This giant wolf is polite and makes a few human generals a little uncomfortable, but Borken quickly talked about what everyone is interested in. The topic also dispelled the grudge brought about by ethnic differences: "There is not the same as here."
"Baraso... there is a six-winged demon... as strong as Vivian." Borken showed his scars and showed Luna and others a visit: "This is the memorial that that fellow left me... …We were defeated, that’s why we lost Barasso, Alan and Brenno in an instant."
"With that guy here, there won't be anything nearby that can survive..." Borken sighed sadly: "I have seven friends who died there in battle. If you don't have enough energy, don't go easily. There."
It sounds really bad news. Luna looked at General Alfred next to him, and gave up the idea of attacking Barasso.
She looked at the giant wolf in front of her, and said, "Our railway has been laid in the territory of the eternal empire, and we are now advancing very fast. Only when this railway is connected here can we be sure of victory."
"If that's the case, just forget Barasso. We can consider taking back Larmo." Borken is familiar with the nearby terrain and said a place far away from the main battlefield: "There are not many demons there. , But after we captured it, the flanking was a huge northern rift, which was a natural barrier."
"This is a good way. If we take Larmor, we can liberate the paratroopers..." General Alfred's eyes lit up and he looked at the giant wolf Borken: "I was also thinking about it before. This plan seems to be feasible..."
"It is very feasible. If the demons did not expect our counterattack, then Larmer would certainly not accumulate heavy troops... Compared to attacking Barasso, the chances of attacking there are greater." Borken is confident. Said.
"The 19th Division is advancing too slowly! Brenno must be captured at this time tomorrow! I will give whatever support they want! I only need speed!" Luna looked at the communications officer on the side and said: "Order them to take Brenno immediately and inspect the city to see if there are any survivors!"
"Take a copy of the video here and send it to them and let them have a look..." Luna, who was a little dissatisfied with the attack speed of the flanks, was about to give her 19th Division some strong medicine: "It's all hope Guy Gus, don't they feel embarrassed because they are like women there?"
"Yes!" The communications officer stood up and saluted, then turned and left.
The giant wolf Boken showed his fangs, which seemed to make a smile, but it was more scary than crying.
"There are a small number of devil dogs counterattack nearby, but they can't cause us any trouble. The defense line has been consolidated, and reinforcements are arriving one after another. It seems that our counterattack is successful this time." General Alfred was somewhat fortunate. Said.
"Don't take it lightly. Let the reconnaissance planes carefully search for nearby demons and monitor their numbers! Distribute flares to troops on the line of defense to prevent demons from launching night attacks." After Luna gave up the idea of relations with the civilians, she became Be cautious.
As a female commander, her superiority of thoughtfulness was brought to the fullest by her. She commanded the troops meticulously and thoughtfully, often able to think of places that others could not think of. This is also her unique command style when she was young and famous.
A day later, the videotapes recorded on the front line were sent to a returning c-47 transport plane. Every shot has not been cut, there is Vivienne without a mask, and the heroic female commander Luna.
Of course, there are also the blood-stained armor fragments neatly laid out in the open space, and the thin-faced Greken civilians who have walked out of the basement refuge...
