It is daytime now.
But it was like a dark night.
The thick black clouds above the head completely blocked the sun, and even the five fingers could not be reached. Only when the raging thunder and lightning briefly crossed the sky could it illuminate everything in front of him.
slam-l
The sky was like a big hole leaking, and the rain poured down frantically. The pesized raindrops kept hitting the tops and shoulders of people. The rain raged on the cheeks and wet the hair and the eyes.
The feet of the Imperial soldiers under the command of Heros, who participated in the siege, were deeply immersed in the muddy ground.
The spears and long swords in their hands were used as crutches, and they struggled to support their bodies forward, and the lining of their armor and stomach was also full of water and added a lot of weight, and their bodies were as if filled with lead.
"Commander, what should I do now?"
A soldier wearing the imperial red and black armor, leaning on a spear in difficult hands, shouted loudly at his commander in the pouring rain.
However, his voice was torn to shreds by the raging raindrops, scattered in the wind, and received no response.
A sudden downpour disrupted the entire battlefield, pouring rain, thunder and lightning, and the wind howling along with it.
A soldier with a ladder on his shoulders, his eyes were a little cloudy from the rain, he raised his hand and wiped his face, but he didn't want to slip and fall to the ground.
thump--
Then, being propelled by the wind, it rolled directly down the hillside.
"Hard!"
And the comrades who came out of the same village with him were shocked when they saw this scene, and hurriedly reached out to grab their comrades.
However, since the siege ladder is used for the purpose of war, it is very heavy and strong. Two people suddenly let go of their hands, which directly caused the ladder to bend, and the other people they drove also staggered and fell into the mud and even rolled and climbed. .
The imperial soldier named Hader who fell first fell from the hillside. Because of the continuous pouring of heavy rain, the ground on the hillside was very muddy and slippery. Everywhere was beaten and bleed.
Fortunately, he finally hugged the corpse of a comrade at the last minute.
This imperial soldier who was shot and killed outside the High Court City, slowed down his rolling speed, and rolled two more circles and stopped.
"Cough-cough-"
Hader hugged the corpse of his comrade-in-arms in his arms, the blood on his cheeks was just bumped, and he didn't know where the blood was wiped from his body. He choked a few mouthfuls of rainwater and coughed violently.
Immediately his chest heaved, panting heavily, cursing with the last of his strength.
"It's too dangerous."
"Damn, I almost died here..."
However, Hader lay on the ground for a while, and finally recovered.
Then the armor and stomach on his body made a sound, as if he was carrying a big mountain on his back, he staggered and climbed up from the ground with difficulty.
"This heavy rain is too evil."
"I don't know what's going on there now."
This heavy rain came too suddenly, and everyone was caught off guard. It was a clear sky just now, but it was pouring rain in a blink of an eye.
But at this moment, Hader slipped and fell from the hillside, and he didn't know how far he had gotten out.
He raised his head and looked at the High Court, but at this moment this huge fortified city has become a lake in the rain, and the companions just now have long since disappeared.
After all, when the torrential rain poured not long ago, the line of sight was greatly affected, and there was no way for the military order to be conveyed very quickly.
There are too many people on the battlefield, and when there are too many people, it is difficult to control the chaos.
"Shit!"
And Hader, an imperial soldier from a village next to Hongge City in the valley, cursed again.
Now unfortunately he is alone, but being alone on the battlefield is not a good omen.
He must now find his troops immediately, otherwise it is easy to be found as a deserter or an enemy.
Because there are always some enemies who want to escape or steal information will put on their own clothes and try to mix in.
If a deserter is caught, he may be sentenced to prison and confiscated all his merits.
And if he was treated as an enemy, he would probably be beheaded on the spot, and he wouldn't even have a chance to explain.
Then Hader took off the helmet on top of his head, scratched his hair and twisted a lot of moisture.
Then he took off the black cloak that had absorbed the moisture, and threw it aside to reduce his weight.
However, at this moment, Hader suddenly felt a chill on his ankle.
He looked down and found that his ankles had been submerged in water at some point.
Because of the heavy rain now, his whole body was already soaked wet, so he didn't feel anything strange for the first time, and when he noticed it, the water had already submerged his ankles.
"Um?"
"What's the matter? How can there be water here?"
The Imperial soldier Hader was slightly taken aback.
Although there is indeed a big river next to this place, it should not be so close to the High Court. He could even vaguely see the city of gardens from the electric light from the sky.
Then Hader stood where he was~www.mtlnovel.com~ turned his head and looked in the direction of the water...
next second.
rumbling
The dull thunder rolled in the sky, and a lightning flashed across the sky.
The electric light ripped apart the darkness, illuminated the earth, and also illuminated the eyes of this imperial soldier who came from the valley in his hometown.
He saw the black river in front of him with no end in sight, and now it is spreading at an extremely fast speed.
It was just at his ankle just now, but with just a stunned effort, the water level quickly spread to his calf.
"Oops!"
"The flood has burst!"
And Hader froze in place, at first there were still some who couldn't believe his eyes, and then he shuddered.
Even though he grew up in the valleys, the flooding disasters were not as dense as the riverlands and the river bends, but he still heard of the floods and plagues of the riverlands a few years ago.
Water and fire are ruthless. Like fire, water and fire can ruthlessly take people's lives. Human beings are particularly vulnerable and helpless in the face of these natural and man-made disasters.
"Fuck it!"
"escape!"
At this moment, Harder saw the picture that had just flashed away, and his mind was blank for a moment, and then endless fear came up.
"Run away!"
"Escape to the heights!"
Afterwards, he didn't care about the injuries on his body. Under the stress, his tired body didn't know where the strength came from. He gritted his teeth and ran and crawls to escape in the direction of Gao Ting.
Because although he is just a mediocre soldier in the legion, at this moment he also knows that High Court is the only commanding height in the surrounding area.
If you want to survive, you can only desperately run to the heights.
