【Consume 300 life days】

"That...that carriage! It's teleporting here!!!"
"Everyone on alert, alert!"
"Archers are ready, be careful!"
The soldiers on patrol on the city wall cried out in surprise. They had seen Shihui and the other two just now, but they chose to ignore them because the bridge was broken and no one could get across, and these people could not get out.
But no one expected that the other party would drive the carriage onto the broken bridge and appear under the city wall in an instant.
All this was so unbelievable that all the soldiers were facing a powerful enemy!
The archers all grabbed their bows and crossbows. As long as the situation was slightly wrong, they would immediately shoot thousands of arrows, shooting the people and horses in the car into a hornet's nest.
Shihui, who was sitting in the front of the carriage, spat a mouthful of blood on the ground. She stepped down from the carriage despite the pain of her body being torn apart. She raised her head and looked at the soldiers on the city wall.
Each of them was wearing worn armor, with scars on their faces, and their eyes were full of fear as they looked at her.
It seems that lime is the most dangerous monster at this moment.
"Who's the leader?! Have him come out to see me immediately!"
Shihui asked loudly, her tone full of unquestionableness, as if a king was giving orders to her subjects, and the aura of superiority emanating from her made them even more frightened.
The soldiers on the city wall looked at each other, and then cast their eyes on the middle-aged man standing in the front. There was a horrible scratch on the middle-aged man's left eye, and his whole face looked extremely ferocious. He was silent for a while, and then he retracted his sword.
"Someone, open the city gate. I want to go down and take a look!"
The soldiers beside him immediately whispered to dissuade him: "No, Captain, what if they are also those evil witches? Maybe they are here on purpose to sneak in!"
"Yes, yes, we'd better be careful. They might rush in as soon as the city gate opens!"
The captain frowned and shouted angrily, "Shut up, you idiots, you only know how to eat. How could those monsters be so stupid as to sneak into the town in this way, not to mention swaggering in front of us!"
"If they wanted to hide and deceive, they would have started shouting on the other side of the bridge!"
The captain's scolding and reprimanding made everyone shut up. It was not because they were deliberately targeting Shi Hui and the others, but simply because they were extremely afraid of those monsters and cultists.
Otherwise, the bridge that was built with so much difficulty would not be blown up for no reason.
More and more people died, and more and more inexplicable things appeared in the city, and everyone was on edge.
“Empty empty!!!”
The huge city gate was carefully opened a crack, and a middle-aged knight walked out, followed by dozens of soldiers. The one in front was holding a shield, and the ones at the back were four archers.
Each of their faces was filled with strong hostility and deep fear.
Shi Hui looked at these soldiers with great interest. Even though they tried their best to act fearless and extremely angry, those eyes full of fear and trembling legs could not be faked.
The middle-aged knight took off his helmet, revealing his hideous face covered in wounds. He bowed to the lime, completely ignoring the shocked looks around him, and said sincerely, "Madam, where are you from?"
Shihui patted his sleeves, his face cold, and said: "I am the ninth princess of the Kingdom of Santa Maria, Hilde Maria!"
"what!"
"Your Majesty the Princess?!"
"How can it be?!"
"Are we saved?"
After listening to Shihui's self-introduction, everyone couldn't help but exclaim, and the fear and despair on their faces relaxed a lot.
But the middle-aged man did not kneel down to her. Instead, he continued to ask seriously: "Then your noble princess, do you have anything to prove your identity?"
Although the other party exudes the aura of a superior, with a little practice and learning the tone of the nobles, he can imitate it very well. A short self-introduction cannot prove his identity.
"As expected of a leader, you're not comparable to those idiotic soldiers. As for proof of your identity..."
Thinking of this, Shihui opened her small black bag and took out a gold necklace from it.
It is carved with a half-moon golden circle and a woman. The woman looks like the suffering Jesus, with her two hands hanging on both sides of the semicircle, forming a large cross. It is undoubtedly Maria, and this should be the only thing that can prove her identity.
"thump!"
The moment the captain saw the necklace being taken out, he immediately knelt on one knee, lowered his head, and said in a tone full of sincerity and respect: "Captain of the guards of Kesuo Town, Malou pays his respects to Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
Seeing this, the surrounding soldiers threw away their weapons, their faces showing even greater fear than before. They knelt down in front of the lime and pressed their foreheads tightly against the ground.
Regardless of whether it is the end of the world or it is about to be destroyed, this is still the old Middle Ages. Daring to show weapons against the royal family is an absolute felony, and even execution is justified.
"Please forgive us, Your Highness!"
"Please have mercy, we have no intention of raising our weapons against you!"
"Please forgive me for waiting!"
Only Ma Lou was not so frightened. He just felt that these soldiers were too cowardly and cowardly. How could they protect the people in the city like this?
Shihui remained expressionless, showing no emotion. She put the gold pendant back and said indifferently, "Everyone, stand up. I'm not interested in listening to your crying. I need a place to stay, and I need everything that's happening here!"
“Yes…yes sir!”
"I will obey the emperor's order!"
After hearing this, the surrounding soldiers finally stood up and clumsily picked up their discarded weapons.
Ma Lou walked to the front of the carriage, took the reins and led them into the city. For some reason, he could not see anyone there, but occasionally he could see a few children running into the alleys.
As night fell and the sun set completely, the sky gradually darkened and the town was shrouded in silence, as if time had stopped here.
The streets were narrow and winding, and the houses on both sides were tall and gloomy, with windows closed and not a single light coming through.
The wind blew silently, bringing a hint of coolness, blowing against the ancient walls and cobblestone roads. There was no one on the street, no noisy voices, no busy footsteps, only the sound of the wind and the occasional call of animals in the distance.
The silence was unsettling, as if the entire town had been abandoned and become a ghost town.
Shihui withdrew his gaze and asked, "Tell me what happened here..."
Ma Lou nodded and said:
"About three months ago, a plague broke out in the surrounding villages. Many villagers first developed high fevers and then died within a few hours. But this was only the beginning."
"The dead villagers came back to life not long after. They devoured the living. The villages quickly fell, and a large number of refugees came running. They just said that their relatives started to attack them."
"We sent people to investigate at first, but less than one person returned. Their bodies were all gnawing and bloody. Later we learned that the villagers had long been dead and had turned into the living dead."
"But fortunately, my town is built in the center of a lake. Those living dead can't cross the lake. Bad news has been coming from the surrounding towns and villages one after another, and a large number of people have rushed here."
"There are too many people. The zombies have also been attracted here, and... and those monsters!"
When he said this, there was obvious fear in Ma Lou's tone, and his mind was full of those extremely terrifying images, as if they were approaching him step by step.
"What kind of monster is it?" Shihui was very confused. She was wondering if it was one of those human-chicken monsters.
Ma Lou took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and spoke again: "We can't see clearly, they are hiding in the darkness, and they are fat and huge. No... not only that, there are some monsters... We can't resist at all, and those people were slaughtered by those monsters!"
"It was the town's deputy captain. He led a small group of soldiers to blow up the bridge and perished together with those monsters..."
Speaking of this, Ma Lou's eyes became moist and he kept wiping the corners of his eyes. Soon he brought the lime to a two-story building. The surface of the quaint wooden house was covered with green plants, revealing a gloomy atmosphere everywhere.
Before leaving, he left behind a meaningful message.
“Lock the doors and windows…”
