When the cheese in the business district turned into a fog, the wizard in the witch''s house slowly woke up. He looked at the furnishings and the door to the bench he was sitting on, and after confirming that they were the same as before his nap, the cheese breathed a little. The conversation with rain is not shady, but it''s better not to let a third person know. After all, not everyone has the courage to deal with the indescribable.


    "Are you awake?" When the mage approached the command room, Heather in the room quickly noticed him.


    Nodding at the knight, cheese went to the edge of the sand table in the middle of the room. On this magic supported map, the chess pieces symbolizing the Cang lion soldiers and the rat men were playing inextricably on the walls around the city.


    After a trial attack during the day, the rat people are probably used to the strategy of human soldiers guarding the city. Instead of attacking every city wall randomly and aimlessly, they began to gather forces to attack some weak points that were difficult to defend. Fortunately, Wangdu, as the foundation of Cang lion''s country, did not have an absolutely dead hole when it was built. During the day, the soldiers who were in fear because of the terrible appearance of rat people also calmed down under the comfort of the commander and the baptism of blood. The situation seems to have turned into a stalemate again.


    "How is it going?" The master rubbed his temple and pretended to wake up from a short sleep.


    "Not very optimistic." As leaders of the clans in the dark, they may be masters of shadow knowledge, but even witches are not familiar with large-scale wars. So the person who can say these four words is Roland.


    The old magician, with his pipe in his mouth, sat on a bench specially moved for him and looked at the sand table. It made him stand out in the room where everyone was standing, but Roland didn''t ask for the chair. During the whole day, his command ability and his mastery of the characteristics of various dark races made all the dark residents in Wangdu believe in this old man. This chair is not only for taking care of the old man''s body, but also for the recognition of Roland''s status by various leaders.


    "What do you say?" Asked the cheese, frowning. Although the mage had undergone a complete and strict education, such things as marching were not included in the teaching content of the gray tower. So just looking at the situation on the sand table, cheese can not see the direction of the war.


    "In terms of the current situation, the soldiers of Cangshi still have an advantage." Roland said, spitting out a few smoke rings from his mouth, and the lightning jumped up from his chair to catch the white smoke with shapes. "But now it''s just getting into the night. Although the human side can defend the city, there is a problem that they can''t avoid anyway."


    "Fatigue." It doesn''t take the old man to finish, and cheese will know what troubles the human side can''t avoid. A man is tired. An energetic soldier may be able to defeat two or three rat men, but once his spirit slackens, a bad rat man may kill him.


    "That''s right. I noticed that the commander of Cangshi had deliberately arranged two or three combat rounds to give the soldiers on the wall a chance to rest. But it can only last until midnight. By midnight, the rat man''s advantage will show. The longer it drags on, the worse the battle will be for humanity. If the pressure of the rat man forces all the soldiers to stand on the wall, the city will not be far from the city Said Roland. In the life experience of the old man, although he did not personally command the army, he knew many commanders known as famous generals. He still knew this level of military theory.


    "If that''s the time, Mr. Edward, we may need your grave soil to guard it." Cheese heard the head turned to the ghost King standing in the dark corner, said. The latter nodded and said nothing more.


    "It is also worth noting that..." Roland was silent for a moment and seemed to be considering the following wording: "according to the information brought by bat people, by the end of sunset, there are still a large number of rat people coming from all directions."


    This is undoubtedly very bad news. Cheese understood that if more rat men came here, the siege of the king''s capital was still the second. The appearance of these rat men meant that more places of Cang lion had become hotbeds of rat people. The plague is still spreading.


    "There is a question that I care about very much and I hope you can answer it." While the master was still thinking, the old man asked. Looking at the dignified expression on Roland''s face, cheese knew that the next question must be very important for the former to judge the situation.


    "Would the rat people spontaneously gather together to attack the city?"


    When this question was asked, the mage felt that a thread in his mind was broken. Yeah! These rat people may choose small-scale operations because of hunting, but such large-scale behavior without profit for a long time is completely against the habits of rat people! And thinking of these, cheese will also think of more things, from the rain hint, if this plague is really to make ordinary people tired, no time to pay attention to some things, then this strange war is a key link in the other side''s action.


    "The rat man we see now is quite different from the rat man I first saw in saronnel." "In a very short period of time, they have learned to breed inferior species for combat, and have also produced varying degrees of variation in order to fight. However, wisdom is definitely not something that can be obtained in a short time. Unless they still retain human memory after mutation, but that kind of rat man... "They don''t attack human towns. Because in their hearts, humans are still their compatriots. When he thought of this, the mage thought of the rat men in the Valley City, and Gloria, who remained there, the last legal heir of saronnel in name.


    "That''s right." Roland put his pipe on the edge of the sand table and knocked, "since these rat people are still irrational beasts, they are more vulnerable to external influences. For example, there are one or several special individuals with the ability to call on people outside the city. Another example is... "


    "There''s something in this king that appeals to them." This time, the mage didn''t have to think that Ms. emia had been able to keep up with the old man''s ideas. "And judging from the enemies who constantly appear in the city during the day, their purpose may be to let us not have time to find the key to attract rat people!"


    Cheese''s eyes narrowed because he thought of a place he had neglected during the day. Now, the mage felt it necessary to go again.
