Chapter 92 Giants are coming!

Day two.

"Sure enough, there are still many powerful people in the world."

Lake and Poro were walking down the street.

This city is close to the capital of Boren, so the buildings appear to be much more prosperous and taller, but now the environment seems a bit desolate.

The streets are empty.

About a week ago, residents began to evacuate the town in an orderly manner in accordance with the notice from the Kingdom of Boren.

This is even more true today.

Poro and Lake looked up and saw carriages and horses around them transporting packages of all sizes, and most of the people passing by were also carrying bags.

Most people's eyes were filled with sadness.

They looked at the scenery around them, their eyes revealing reluctance to leave.

"Yeah, that young hunter doesn't look much older, but his marksmanship... is amazing."

Poro also looked puzzled.

"That must be the existence of magic."

At this time, the old soldier on the side spoke up, raised his gray eyebrows, and explained, "No one can hit a flying bird in the sky without using his eyes.

When he fired the first shot, I saw that the direction of his aim was crooked."

The old soldier placed his hand on his pistol and slowly uttered a few words:
"His bullet turned a corner while in the air!"

Afterwards, the few of them stopped talking about the giants. Since they had already decided not to participate, there was no need to waste time here.

"The maps those Boren sentries gave me are pretty good, but unfortunately they don't cover the other side of the capital."

Poro shook his head, his eyes sweeping over the people passing by.

All the shops in the city have closed.

The day before, after leaving those squares, several people had already begun looking for people who were selling horses and other supplies.

But nothing was gained.

It's getting late. Instead of traveling on the road, it's better to rest in the city for a day.

Now, the only hope that can be bought... is to find it among these passing caravans.

at last……

"Hello sir, are you selling your horses?"

Lake walked up to a large team and spoke to the person in charge.

"We don't have any extra, little girl."

"Could you please give us a ride?"

"Well, we have a lot of cargo and no more space..."

The man in charge was about to wave his hand to refuse, but when he saw the few gold coins in Lake's hand, the golden light made him unable to take his eyes away.

"Well, of course, if you want, we'd be happy to help."

Towards the afternoon, Lake and his companions boarded the caravan's carriage.

The manager was quite kind. After accepting the gold coins with a smile on his face, he specially cleared out an entire carriage for the Poros.

In the smoke and dust, the caravan mixed in with a large crowd of people in the city and headed out of the city.

This was the last group of people leaving the city. Many convoys carrying large amounts of equipment and supplies were mixed in with the crowd. After this day, the town...

All that will be left are the Boren soldiers who are ready for battle, and some people who want to stay in the city out of luck.

The tall city walls are right in front of us.

On a cloudy day, the sunlight appears dim through the gaps in the clouds.

But at this moment, a sharp horn sounded across the sky—

"Woo——"

The next moment, rapid whistles and shouts suddenly sounded from the direction of the city gate!
In the distance, the tall city gate suddenly rose up rapidly, cutting off the crowd. Seeing this scene, everyone in the city was stunned.

Several teams of mounted Boren soldiers came galloping over. They shouted to the crowd: "Go, hurry up, put down your things and follow us--"

"My lord, what is going on? Did something happen?"

Several businessmen couldn't help but ask.

"Those giants are coming! They're very cunning, or rather...that damned swindler is very cunning. Those giants have deceived our sentinels!"

"What!?"

The crowd was in an uproar, and all the Boren people trembled!
Many women and children even began to sob with their hands covering their faces.

The outsiders who didn't know much about giants also started to panic and wanted to escape after seeing this scene.

But I don’t know where to escape to!

The Boren soldiers also knew this, and what they did was to minimize casualties among the residents.

Several soldiers quickly sorted out the crowd, and people gradually began to abandon their luggage and ran desperately after the soldiers!

The Poros and their companions rode on the caravan's horses.

"No way, are we so unlucky?!"

Poro and the others did not do anything eye-catching at this time. They also followed the crowd and headed towards the streets near the city center.

And when they had just taken a few steps away——

"Oh!"

An earth-shattering bang!

Poro looked back in shock, only to see a hole in the center of the wooden city gate.

Two huge hands grabbed the two sides of the hole and began to tear it apart...

On the other side, on the stone wall, the second giant pinched a few fingers on it. He grabbed it with force, and then a huge, ugly head rose up!
The terrifying shadow blocked out the already scarce sunlight...

It was a giant, climbing up the city wall.

The giant is coming!

But it didn't take long before a few solemn string sounds rang out in the city, facing the city gate!
It’s the giant crossbow of the Boren people—the Giant Butcher!
The giant who had just climbed over the city wall had no time to dodge. The two crossbow arrows were aimed very accurately. The giant only had time to cover his face with his hands, and one crossbow arrow shot towards his eyes!

At the same time as it came into contact with the giant, a layer of blue light quickly appeared on the surface of the steel crossbow!
"Pfft-"

There was a dull sound and blood spurted out!

The giant covered his eyes and let out an earth-shattering howl.

Another crossbow arrow pierced the giant's shoulder blade. A large amount of blood gushed out from the giant's wound, but it seemed to further enrage the giant's bestiality!
The giant opened his abyss-like mouth and roared, revealing his sharp white molars!

He dodged the third crossbow arrow, then shouted angrily and chased in the direction it came from.

The ground is shaking.

The house knocked down by the giant collapsed to the ground, with bricks and stones flying everywhere!

Poro followed the crowd and the soldiers on horseback in front, heading towards the other direction of the city.

Along the way, on the streets and beside the buildings.

Armored warriors came and went.

There was a kind of silent momentum in the eyes of all the Boren soldiers, and there was no hesitation in their actions.

Perhaps I had made some resolutions a long time ago.

Special iron chains are stretched between the houses and streets, crisscrossing and forming a spider-web-like nest.

The group of civilians walked past, and a small group of Boren cavalry came from the other side of the city gate.

"We will protect you from here, follow closely."

The leading sergeant, Bo Ren, drew his sword. In this team, all the soldiers' swords had simple patterns engraved on them.

That is also a kind of magic array.

"If there are more giants behind us... we will be responsible for leading them away, and you will escape on your own—"

I’m only saying this once.”
