Chapter 453: Shang Chuan, Coordinating Manor Resources

~7 min read 1,227 words

Actually, after Lan Qingyou and the others were trapped, Tarot Manor also experienced a bit of chaos.

However, it was really just a slight bit of chaos.

After all, it wasn't like someone had died, so after briefly mourning for Lan Qingyou and the other three, everyone went about their respective business.

In the end, who would have thought that all of this was a trap designed by someone.

And it was surprisingly for the sake of collecting witches' blood?

Abnormal.

Every aspect of this matter exuded abnormality.

Especially the fact that such a large-scale invasion of a region occurred without the Supreme Council receiving any news, which was even more abnormal.

If it wasn't because their secrecy work was well done, then it was because someone in the Supreme Council was providing cover for them.

Because of his different position, Chu Yuan instantly thought of many things that others wouldn't normally consider.

Justice: "I thought I was already a bastard enough, didn't expect there are even better ones."

After reading Shang Chuan's message, Riesling couldn't help but complain.

As a former gang member, Riesling's hands weren't clean either, but in front of these people, he felt like a raw recruit.

Magician: "Is the situation somewhat bad right now?"

Moon: "More than just bad, it's an absolute disaster."

Holding Elwell's card, Shang Chuan naturally knew very well what was happening in other places and the warning Diana had issued.

The Lovers: "Is there anything you need our help with?"

Moon: "I think the Knowledge Witch probably wants to clear the fields and strengthen the defenses. In that case, food, water, and materials and such will become their only means to hold down the sanctuaries."

Empress: "Hahaha, isn't this exactly what we're good at? Coincidentally, I have a batch of rice ready to harvest here."

When it came to eating and drinking, the people of Tarot Manor were far too familiar with it.

Growing, breeding, processing, and even fishing.

As long as you could eat it, there was always food available.

Moon: "Alright, let's talk after I escape."

Chariot: "Escape? Didn't you say you were blocked?"

Olf was curious.

After all, compared to them, Shang Chuan, one of the only two guys in the manor who didn't do research, had very weak combat power.

Trying to escape from such a blocked situation wasn't an easy task.

Moon: "It should be fine. I have a powerful bodyguard with me."

After all, he knew best how powerful Elwell was, and in order to arm Elwell, Shang Chuan had literally thrown money at her.

So he was very confident in Elwell.

However, right at this moment, Elwell, who was guarding the cabin door, shouted loudly at Shang Chuan.

"Hurry up and come out, those Merfolk are burning the ship!"

...

Burning the ship, do you know how much a ship full of cargo is worth?!

The merchant was furious, but he could only remain furious because he had no way to resist those Merfolk.

Thus, Shang Chuan, who rushed up quickly, was grabbed by Elwell, who was holding a flying broom. Then, with a kick, the entire broom flew diagonally from the cabin straight up into the sky.

Either fight or flee.

Facing the Merfolk surging like a tsunami, Elwell ultimately chose to flee.

But fleeing was still very easy for Elwell.

"Hold on tight."

After forcefully lifting Shang Chuan up and making him sit on the flying broom, she engaged Third Gear and sprinted towards her own sanctuary with all her might.

Although her combat wasn't very flexible due to not being proficient in using the flying broom.

On the way, whenever she encountered birdmen engaging in aerial combat, she would rush up and sneak in a strike to help the other witches.

Although her combat wasn't flexible, if it was just sneak attacks, Elwell was definitely an expert.

It's just a pity she didn't have a sniper rifle, otherwise, shooting these birdmen in the sky would be like shooting moving targets, incredibly easy.

But she would have one once she returned to the sanctuary.

At that time, she would let these guys know what it means that 'times have changed'.

"To your sanctuary?"

Shang Chuan, who was hugging Elwell at this time, asked.

"Right."

"Let's not. Let's go to my sanctuary, there are more supplies there."

"But your place isn't suitable for sniping from the inside out."

Shang Chuan gave his judgment without even thinking, but Elwell also had her own plans.

As someone who was a mercenary and part-time assassin, when had she ever suffered such grievances?

So she absolutely had to get payback.

Along the way, Elwell rescued witches, and by the time she reached her tall clock tower sanctuary, there were already over fifty of them following behind her.

There were originally more.

But because one sanctuary couldn't hold so many people, the rest were diverted to other sanctuaries that could launch outward attacks.

This way, even if everyone was hiding inside the sanctuaries, they could still attack the invading enemies outside.

While killing enemies, it could also prevent the protective barriers from being attacked by these guys and consuming energy points. It could be said to kill multiple birds with one stone.

Although the seaport was in a tragic state, and the Forsaken City was also in a tragic state.

But among them, the most tragic was still Typhon City, which had teleportation arrays set up in the east, south, west, and north.

Except for the tree hole teleportation array in the middle of Lan Qingyou's sanctuary, which was closed to the outside, the other four were open to the public.

So while they were occupied by invaders at the first moment, people were still continuously teleporting over.

Although most of these were transmigrators with low stats, they couldn't withstand the sheer numbers.

Fortunately, through the Thorn Witch's tireless efforts before, many witches had flying brooms, so the moment they received the notification, they directly took off and flew towards the central habitat.

And the few witches without flying brooms also packed up slightly and rushed out of their homes with necessities.

"Tsk, these damned birdmen."

Although it seemed that witches without flying brooms might be slower and face more dangers.

In reality, riding flying brooms was actually more dangerous.

After all, there was no cover whatsoever in the air.

Some witches were attacked by Featherfolk the moment they took off.

Because the Featherfolk had previously swarmed into Typhon City overwhelmingly during their attack, most witches saw such a scene.

Therefore, even when attacked upon takeoff, only a small number of people were hit.

Combat instantly erupted in the skies above Typhon City.

"These witches are really tough to deal with."

A certain Featherfolk, after piercing a witch with the spear in his hand, grabbed her and said to his companion.

"Otherwise, why would they be the number one race in Karim, plus they have the assistance of annoying flying familiars."

His companion said in a disgusted tone, then pulled out a small knife and a large bottle.

Pfft—

Just as this birdman was about to act, a sharp blade pierced his heart.

Subsequently, the other birdman was also attacked by a sharp blade, and both fell.

And right as they fell, the corpse of the witch falling with them was caught by a figure.
