Chapter 207: Continuing the Battle (Part 1)

In the underground tunnel, stepping on puddles will make a clear splashing sound. The flame of the oil lamp was flickering.

It didn't take much time for the group to retreat. Five minutes later, they came to the third line of defense. This line of defense was the material warehouse of the original mining area, and even had iron gates.

The people who responded inside lit up the oil lamps one by one, and the whole space immediately lit up.

Since there was a building in the first place, it was a solid fortification after sorting out, and Knight Sanger was very impressed.

The corridor is only 3 meters high and 2 meters wide, and at most two little devils can move forward. It is narrower than the front. Coupled with the high slope, this place can be regarded as a good place.

But Luo Meng sighed and said: "The third line of defense is the strongest and the best, and the last four lines of defense are just so-so, so we can only resist a little bit!"

The light of the lantern flickered in the space, and the storage room at the back was quite large, with hundreds of people put in it, it was not obviously cramped.

"Listen everyone. Before the shift changer arrives, start re-arming now. Crossbowman, set up all the arrows. The seriously wounded can rest. Everyone else, proceed as soon as possible. Farfer, the wound on your arm is still there. If it's not good, then you don't need to help carry the wounded, just help take precautions!" Romon said as he swept across the crowd.

When they withdrew to the third line of defense, most of the faces showed a tired look. They fought for two days in a row. Although there was a short rest in the middle, most of the time, they were physically weak. After recovering, he will have to join another battle, so his current physical strength is seriously exhausted, and he needs to rest and recover.

Judging from the current situation, although they are so tired that they can almost fall asleep when they lie down, everyone is still trying their best to strengthen the fortifications before the arrival of the shift replacement. After all, if there is no help. If the devil attacked again, it would be very unlucky.

Romon looked at the exhausted crowd, and he did it himself, and Fafer also participated in it. After being affected, the temple warriors rested for a while, and then came to the defense line independently, vigilantly carrying out the defensive task.

Before the arrival of the replacement personnel, the temporary deployment of personnel, in more cases, is a helpless move, but it is very feasible in a short period of time. After all, changing the personnel can give the more tired group a chance to rest and prepare for the next battle.

Although seeing that everyone was exhausted, Romon had no better solution other than redeploying the personnel. Although the addition of Sangbo and Temple Warriors in the morning revived the team . But now, everyone is tired.

It was already around eight o'clock in the evening,

Romon was sitting on a rock, looking out. He had taken a rest, so of course he had to assume the role of guard at this time.

"Romon, when will the people below arrive? If this continues, I'm afraid the third line of defense won't be able to last long." Farfell walked over and sat beside him.

Because of Romon's special care, Farfell's injuries are recovering very quickly. However, even though he has suffered several injuries, he cannot continue to participate in today's battle.

Before waiting for an answer, there was a sudden commotion behind him.

Although Romon and Farfell were talking, they immediately looked in the direction of the commotion.

"Nick?!" A figure suddenly appeared in the line of sight of the two of them, running over with a thin body and nervous expression.

Behind him, hundreds of adventurers followed, each of them carrying fresh food and water. When Nick ran over, they had already distributed the food and water to the people present one by one according to the order Nick just gave. Everyone.

All of a sudden, the fresh aroma of milk and the smell of sweet snacks spread in the air.

"Romon, Faffel, are you okay? I brought people over to support and change shifts." Nick saw two good friends. Just talking.

"Nick, you guy, you finally know how to come to condolences to us!" Farfell smiled.

As Nick approached, he noticed that Farfell's face was a little pale and his hands were hanging down weakly. He immediately asked nervously, "Fafere, are you injured? Where is it? Are you okay? Seriously or not?" ?”

"Oh, don't move, it's already healed." Seeing that Nick came over to look through it, Farfell immediately yelled in protest.

"You won't let me take a look, how can I rest assured!" Nick muttered dissatisfied.

Seeing this, Romon's mood rarely improved. He smiled and patted Nick: "Don't worry, Nick, although he has a lot of injuries, none of them are serious. I've already treated him. Today, tomorrow should be able to recover."

"Look, look, I didn't lie to you." Farfell said quickly.

Only then did Nick let go of Farfell, and turned to Romon: "Romon, you people here are all tired. In addition to bringing a large amount of food this time to comfort you, I also brought the shift personnel , Half of these are the reserve forces of our village, and the other half are adventurers staying in our village. They are all experienced fighters. I have issued a mission before I came here. Don't worry, food, water and people, I will help you find a way." Nick said to Romon very seriously.

"Good work!" Romon was lamenting about the personnel problem, and Nick, the internal affairs officer, had already brought the replacement personnel over. This had to make Romon lament that having a good internal affairs officer in the territory is indeed a guarantee of victory.

Romon patted Nick on the shoulder again, and then began to make arrangements for the shift change.

After just looking at the people who came, Romon nodded secretly. Nick was right, the people who came this time all looked good.

With the help of Nick, Romon quickly reorganized these people and assigned them to various positions. The previous fighters were all replaced to rest.

Because of the arrival of reinforcements, the pressure in everyone's hearts suddenly decreased, and everyone was almost untenable.

"Don't sleep, all follow me back to the village!" Nick yelled. He saw some people lying on the ground to sleep after letting go of the pressure: "The village has prepared hot water and healing potions, and Food, hurry, hurry down."

As for up to now, the corpses of the soldiers who had sacrificed were also ordered by Romon to be transported back. These people are all people with families and small children. Their deaths were for the territory and to protect their homes. Therefore, Romon took the In the name of heroes, send them back to the village. They are temporarily parked, and after the war is over, they will be buried in a grand manner, and the work of comforting the families of the deceased will also be handled by Nick, who will go back soon.

Soon, the busy work was over, and it was late at night again.

In the first half of the night, Romon was on duty. In the second half of the night, it was the turn of the Sangerbo knight to lead the temple soldiers to carry out the night vigil. In fact, he only slept for one afternoon. Romon did not completely relieve his fatigue. After the shift, he lay down and slept soundly. It wasn't until the early hours of the morning that I woke up from my sleep with worry.

Perhaps it implied hostility and wariness towards the Church of the Lord of Radiance, so Romon couldn't entrust the safety of himself and those around him to the people in the temple.

It was a bit cold in the underground passage, so Luo Meng tightened his clothes before standing up and walking to the defense line.

With very light steps, Romon quietly swept his eyes over each adventurer, and then went to the front line of the fortification.

Under the dim oil lamp, the five warriors were patrolling, with the sound of armor clinking with every step.

One of the grandest of them all is the Sangerbo Paladin.

He was wearing heavy armor. After a day of fighting, although the armor was very strong, there were also many traces of stabbing with knives and spears, which showed the intensity of the battle and the environment in which this person fought.

At this time, he was staring at the depths of the mine with a serious face. Looking at him, it seemed that he had been like this since the second half of the night. Beside him, the four temple warriors were also watching vigilantly.

Because Romon's hearing was much sharper than that of ordinary people, he didn't need to be close to those people to hear them talking.

I heard a temple warrior persuading Sangerbo: "My lord, you have been fighting all day and you haven't rested. We are here, so you can take a rest!"

Sangbo shook his head: "No, this is my task, there can be no mistakes, as a paladin, we must be worthy of our title and the commandments of God!"

Romon was taken aback, no wonder the Lord of Radiance is still strong, this is already evident.

At this moment, Knight Sangbo suddenly turned his head: "Who?"

Romon smiled slightly, stepped out, and nodded slightly to Knight Sangerbo.

"Oh, so it's my lord, why did you get up so early?" Knight Sangbo was a little surprised.

"Knight Sangbo, I slept for a while yesterday afternoon, and now I have fully recovered." Romon also replied in a serious tone, looking down, there are many corpses of demons and monsters below.

Knight Sangbo also looked at it for a while, with admiration and excitement in his eyes, and said: "Unexpectedly, there are so many demons falling down in this mining area..."

Romon nodded and said, "Yes, relying on the terrain...You guys continue to monitor, I'm going to go down and do some reconnaissance."

"My lord, is this too dangerous?"

"It doesn't matter, the devil seems to have retreated to the gap to repair, I will come back after I have a look." Romon said: "Everyone is fighting, and I will do my best."

In fact, Romon is nostalgic for the countless demon corpses. Although most of the effects have been lost, it is still a good fertilizer!

Hearing this, Knight Sangbo's eyes froze, he stopped talking, and watched him sneaking down. (!)
