Travel through time and become a member of the Warhammer Empire

There used to be a slum between the New Guard Barracks and Stroman Street. Due to its low terrain and proximity to the river, it was completely submerged by floods not long ago.

It has now been converted into a pig pit, where herds of domestic pigs are raised. They grow by eating garbage and feces, and contribute meat to the empire.

At this moment they are also contributing to the empire, disrupting the ratmen's offensive deployment.

For the vast majority of ratmen, they are always in a state of hunger. Except for the well-equipped and well-trained Storm Rats, all other ratmen have the probability of directly abandoning the mission and looking for food on the spot to fill their stomachs.

The pigs in the pig pit became food for the rat people, and many rat people even started fighting among themselves just to get more pork.

A group of ratmen surrounded the pig and ate it alive.

The chaotic environment gave the five heroes a chance to slip away smoothly, and now they had to hurry and sound the alarm.

Almost at the same time, Windlow and the five heroes arrived at the outskirts of Strowman Market, but one group was on the inner side and the other on the outer side.

"Damn it! Mr. Witch Hunter! The gate is blocked from the other side!"

Just as the imperial soldier had investigated, if one wanted to enter the Stromman Market, one had to pass through the gate in front of him.

It can be seen that the mercenaries and security guards in the market reacted quickly and blocked the gate as soon as the ratmen attacked, and it could not be opened directly by any external force.

There is no better way to reach the Tower of Magnus than through this door.

Of course, Windlo, who was only separated from the five people by a wall, heard their conversation, and even if he jumped up, he could see the sealed door through the wall.

Just when he was anxious, he smelled the smell of black gunpowder and found himself in a gunpowder warehouse. Fortunately, he did not use any torches just now.

Moreover, the black powder warehouse is absolutely safe. The ratmen have a keen sense of smell and hate the smell of gunpowder, so as long as they are in the warehouse, they are absolutely safe. At least there is no problem with the safe points marked by Lona.

"Then use black powder!"

He picked up a barrel of gunpowder and threw it hard, and the barrel rolled over the wall to where the five heroes were.

The witch hunters immediately noticed this sudden support.

Perhaps it was support provided by the gunpowder store owner hiding in the warehouse.

Or maybe it was a conspiracy of the rat people, who wanted to use the hands of five people to blow open the door.

But no matter what the situation is, the gate must be opened now, even if the residents hiding in the market will be slaughtered. For the witch hunters, these sacrifices are worth it.

The sooner the horn is blown to sound the warning, the sooner the Skaven's advantage can be ended.

"Go on, Sergeant!"

"Alright! Mr. Witch Hunter!"

With a throw, the gunpowder barrel was passed between the two men, but as the imperial sergeant's subconscious instinct, after picking up the gunpowder barrel, the sergeant directly used the gunpowder barrel to block the ratman's attack.

The result is naturally predictable. The gunpowder barrel, which was simply made and not reinforced in any way, broke directly, and the black powder inside was scattered all over the ground.

"No way, is it still possible?"

Windlow could only see the situation inside through the gap in the wall, and then he threw out another barrel of gunpowder with all his strength.

Throwing out two of them had already exhausted him, but he didn't expect that the five people inside could actually fight with the ratmen while carrying the gunpowder barrels and moving forward quickly.

After placing the gunpowder barrel next to the closed gate, there is no need to look for an additional fire source. The fire mage among the five people only needs to snap his fingers, and the entire gunpowder barrel will explode instantly, blowing the blocked gate away.

The huge explosion also crushed the morale of the ratmen here. After killing the last storm rat in front of them, the morale of the remaining clan rats and slave rats immediately collapsed and they fled back to the darkness.

Taking this opportunity, the five heroes also passed through the gate and officially entered the Strootman Market in Uberrick City.

It is a huge commercial square built around a huge stone statue.

"Blasphemy!"

The witch hunter roared fiercely, and the reason was obvious.

The entire Stromman Market had been completely lost, and the bodies of ratmen and imperial soldiers were lying all over the stone floor of the market.

There was not a single living person on the street except for live rats. It seemed that simply blocking the gate was not enough to stop the ratmen's attack. These creatures could attack from any unexpected position.

Of course, there was also a very blasphemous thing that made the witch hunters very unhappy. The stone statue in the middle of the market was neither Sigmar nor Magnus, but the lord of Uberik: Count Sigismund von Jungfreud.

Windlow, who was far away, knew something about this.

It's very simple. In the beginning, the city of Uberrick was not completely under the jurisdiction of Reikland, but a free city.

The so-called free city is similar to Marienburg. It is not under the jurisdiction of the empire, does not listen to the empire's orders, and will not obey the empire's orders.

However, six years earlier, Emperor Karl Franz had defeated Count Sigismund von Jungfreud and brought Ubberek under Imperial control.

Six years later, the statue of the earl still remains in the same place, which shows why the witch hunters are so angry.

As for the moment, compared with this act of disloyalty, the threat of the ratmen is more imminent. Through the head of the stone statue, you can also see the Tower of Magnus behind him.

The road ahead is very clear, and you can reach your destination by passing Oliver's inn.

Without stopping, the five men found some ammunition and arrows as supplies in the Stromman Market and then set off immediately.

As for Windlow, he saw a smuggling route on the map.

A nearly undetectable smuggling route that leads all the way outside of Ubberek without being discovered by anyone.

However, the smuggling tunnel is so high that even dwarves have to lower their heads to pass through it. It seems that this smuggling tunnel was dug by dwarves.

Throughout history, the city of Uberrick has been destroyed no less than five times due to human civil wars, or by the greenskins and vampires from the Grey Mountains, as well as the beastmen in the forest.

Each time, a huge amount of money was spent to ask the dwarves to help with the reconstruction. During this period, the dwarves took a large amount of wealth from the empire and ran away quickly when the city of Uberrick fell.

This inevitably caused the town residents and rulers to have serious dissatisfaction with the dwarves, which was manifested in the fact that the dwarves had to pay higher taxes in the city.

The high taxes actually made the dwarves learn to adapt and consider smuggling as a livelihood, and even built a smuggling channel according to the standards of dwarven tunnels.

It is safe and convenient, and has no disadvantages except that you need to walk with your back bent. The first exit of this secret passage is on the first floor of the Tower of Magnus.
