But there were just too many of these creatures.
She felt a chill run down her spine just looking at it.
Fortunately, the paladins were highly skilled in combat. The knights in front retreated as ordered, panting as they used the brief respite to quickly treat their wounds.
The knights behind immediately moved forward to fill the gap, holding shields and hammers, forming an impenetrable wall.
City Guards stood behind them, killing the little Lilies who managed to squeeze in during the gaps.
Finally, the common people, armed with various farm tools, were there to finish off the demons and prevent them from breaking through the defenses.
After confirming that the formation was stable, Rabel quickly moved to Chris's side, frowning: " Chris, a qualified spellcaster should know that standing in a safe place is the best way to maximize attack power."
Chris shook his head: "This position allows my blessing to reach more warriors."
She looked at Rabel: "Mom and Carl haven't shown up yet. They must be engaged in a more dangerous battle. I can't back down."
Rabel gazed at Chris, and saw an unwavering determination in her eyes.
She knew her friend's personality well; once she made up her mind about something, no one could change it.
Rabel stopped trying to persuade them and looked around. When little Lilia first appeared, it caused a brief moment of panic, but thanks to thorough preparation beforehand, they quickly adjusted their formation and stabilized the situation.
Especially noteworthy is the unity and determination shown by the public and the City Guards during this battle.
Rabel was shocked. She had never seen or even heard of such a terrifying level of cohesion. She exclaimed, "Perhaps I really underestimated Lord Karl."
Chris felt a mix of emotions when he heard his friend refer to Karl as "Lord of the City."
From her perspective, Karl was an unqualified tyrant, both in terms of his personal morality and as a city lord.
This Evil Dragon's mind is filled with bizarre postures and threats; it's rotten to the core.
As the city lord, he killed tens of thousands of people in just one month under his harsh laws, and now the prisons are empty.
The eyes of the people do not lie; they do not respect Karl, but only fear him. Some of those whose relatives were killed only hate him.
And Carl did not bring them a more affluent life.
They work eight hours a day, but the salary is so low that it's barely enough to eat and stay warm.
To earn more money, you have to find part-time jobs outside of regular working hours.
Fortunately, the low rental housing policy, coupled with the unified care system for children and the elderly, means that although they work like beasts of burden, they are not under too much pressure.
Chris believes that Carl's only positive impact on San Marino City was...
It means that everyone becomes more genuine, kind, and beautiful.
These changes were not due to divine instruction, but rather because those who were neither good nor virtuous had all their heads cut off.
Whether it was nobles, wealthy merchants, or tyrants, they had all tried to deal with these forces in the past.
Because of their collusion, it is very difficult to find out who is in charge.
Karl, however, wouldn't consider all that. As long as all the participants were eliminated, there would be no need to find the mastermind.
They even killed their own people. The original officials of San Marino City were all wiped out. One of the elderly officials was bedridden with illness and didn't have many days left to live.
They were all lifted off their beds, carried to the square, and hanged.
They even killed so many that there was nowhere to bury them, so they all threw them out into the forest to feed the wild animals.
Now the wild beasts outside the city are fat and plump.
Hunting in the forest has become a popular part-time job after an eight-hour workday in San Marino City.
This led to a 40% drop in the prices of various meats.
Wild animals eat meat and are then hunted by hunters, forming a closed loop.
Chris, however, hasn't dared to eat meat for a month.
"This guy..."
She murmured softly, her gaze sweeping over the busy crowds who were either carrying supplies or reinforcing the defenses. Fear and unease were on everyone's face, but they were determined to protect this place.
Just as Chris observed, they hated Carl, yet they wouldn't leave; instead, they fought the enemy to the death.
Rabel had finished his rounds and walked back, his gaze sweeping across the battlefield.
Although the formation was slightly messy, it was generally well maintained.
This eased her mind somewhat, but the worry on her face did not lessen in the slightest: "This is only the first night, and there is no sign of the number of these monsters decreasing. It will be difficult for us to last seven days."
Upon hearing this, Chris shook his head: "Mom and Carl must be fighting against the mastermind behind this."
Despite her loathing for Carl, she had to admit that the guy was always reliable.
Evil will yield to greater evil.
Chris found it ironic and raised his hand again: "Fight! We must protect this place. This is the only thing we can do for Mom and Carl."
In the church.
Carl suddenly thrust forward with all his might, then shuddered and collapsed into Victoria's arms, burying his head in her chest, experiencing the ultimate thrill.
"Mother."
"Mmm, good girl..." Victoria perked up early. She was a Seventh-Tier Expert, but even she felt dizzy after being messed with by Karl for so long.
This is Young Dragon, which isn't very big, but 20 centimeters is really outrageous.
She felt a stomachache right now.
Chapter 133 Morality Under
"Good boy." Victoria endured her stomach pain, brought her lips close to Karl's ear, whispered softly, and gently hugged Karl in her arms. Her slender fingers ran through his hair as she soothed him by stroking his back.
With her other hand, she took off the tattered, transparent black stockings from her feet, revealing her fair, jade-like feet, seemingly untouched by the world.
She couldn't understand why Karl liked her stockings so much.
Not only was it torn and tattered, but it was also covered in sticky residue. After taking it off, my snow-white feet were covered in it, especially between my toes, where it could be stretched into strands.
"Sigh..." Victoria sighed softly, feeling that her plan to become his mother had succeeded, yet not completely succeeded.
"The fighting outside must be almost over."
Victoria's voice carried a hint of weariness as she spoke; after all, the 20-centimeter length was more than just a stomachache; she was genuinely exhausted from the ordeal.
"Mmm." Karl buried his head in Victoria's chest, his arms around her slender waist. No matter how many times he did it, he never got tired of it; it was just too soft. "Mom, don't worry. Those monsters haven't reached a large scale yet. The current number is just right for us to train our troops."
"Dealing with those guys won't be something that can be resolved in a day or two. Only by adapting to the intensity can we reduce casualties."
"Is there already a solution?" Victoria asked again. She was a seventh-tier rank, already among the strongest in San Marino City, but she really had no way to deal with an enemy like Lilia.
Carl nodded: "Don't worry, Mom, I already have a plan."
His attitude towards Victoria improved considerably. Although it was just role-playing, no man could resist a mature and beautiful woman becoming a mother.
Especially when his hand was placed on her long, jade-like legs, even though her stockings had been removed.
But when placed directly on the skin of long, slender legs, it has a different feel.
He had originally planned to place Little Ka inside Victoria's body to rest.
But when he held her ankle, the feel of it was different from the stockings, and his hand moved down her ankle to her toes, which made Little Ka, who was about to rest, energetic again.
"..." Victoria felt the changes within his body, and the stomach pain that had just eased was about to flare up again.
Is there no limit to how much this Evil Dragon can go?
Karl simply pulled it out, grasped her fair, jade-like skin, and placed it on Little Ka's head.
Having experienced what happened before, Victoria knew his hobby. Although she couldn't understand it, it didn't stop her from cooperating. Compared to a stomachache, using her feet was much easier.
She stretched out her other foot and brought it together, as if giving a massage, constantly rubbing her feet together while Little Ka massaged her own feet and changing positions.
Toes, soles, insteps, ankles—all parts of the foot become massage parlors.
This allowed Karl to experience the different sensations of different parts of a mature woman's feet.
"She really knows how." Carl gritted his teeth. Seeing this, Victoria smiled, leaned forward, and kissed him on the lips.
Mature women also have excellent kissing skills.
Victoria's kiss also gave him a sense of acceptance; he didn't have to move, but Victoria guided him throughout.
That night, however, the others were not as relaxed as Carl and Victoria.
The question on everyone's mind in San Marino City is: how many more days can they hold out?
When the sun rises the next day.
Victoria thoughtfully tidied his clothes and prepared breakfast for him.
Carl suddenly had a whim and rushed over to her breakfast. Victoria rolled her eyes at him, but showed her usual tolerance and slowly and elegantly finished her breakfast.
Wipe his lips clean with a napkin and gently see him off from the church.
Karl returned to the city lord's mansion.
Hill was already waiting there, looking somewhat disheveled. Underneath her tight office lady uniform, several conspicuous tears were visible in her stockings, suggesting that last night's battle had not been easy.
Beside her was an iron cage containing more than a dozen baby Lilia.
"Lord of the City," Hill said in a low voice, " twenty-one City Guards and sixteen civilians died last night. Our defenses are temporarily secure, but we cannot sustain this war of attrition for long."
Any dead corpse will give birth to dozens of small Lilia, with strength ranging from first to second tier.
This rate of reproduction is simply unbelievable.
"They cannot use their abilities, but their vitality is comparable to that of a second-tier human Adventurer. They have strong resistance to poisons and magic, and they fear sunlight. However, placing them in the sunlight will only make them irritable, and will not directly harm their bodies."
Hill looked at Carl.
Carl didn't show up last night, and she figured he was out looking for a way to defeat Little Lilia.
She also hoped to see some hope of defeating the enemy from Carl. After truly fighting little Lilia last night, she deeply felt how terrifying these guys were.
Their terrifying reproductive capacity means they could easily wipe out any town.
Although these little guys don't do much damage to strong people.
But even the strong can't do anything about them.
Towns and armies are naturally countered by these guys.
Hill couldn't think of a single solution.
"They should be here soon." Carl looked away. The adventurers closest to San Marino City should be receiving the news and heading to the city soon.
He began by giving Hill a brief overview of the mission he had assigned to Hera.
"Once those adventurers enter the city, you must ensure that the City Guards maintain order. Anyone who breaks the law, whoever they are, must be executed immediately as a warning to others."
Karl's voice was cold, and his eyes held undisguised murderous intent.
Hill finally snapped out of his daze upon hearing this: "Let the Adventurers deal with Lilia? But they are not strong enough to deal with Lilia. It will cause a lot of casualties and become nourishment for Lilia."
Karl waved his hand: "Don't worry, these Adventurers are around level 3 on average. Although there will be a lot of deaths after the first encounter with those little Lilias, they will have the upper hand overall."
"Furthermore, do you think that if I go to war with the Grand Duke of the Northern Territory and establish a new order, these Adventurers might accept a job and take advantage of the chaos to loot and plunder?"
At this point, Karl's eyes narrowed even more.
Upon hearing this, Hill felt a chill run down his spine. Although Adventurer's Guild claimed to be a neutral organization, it was actually a vested interest group that parasitized the existing framework of the Empire.
If Karl had enforced the law, all of these Adventurers who operate in the gray area would have been hanged without any mistake.
Therefore, Carl and Adventurer's Guild are inherently irreconcilable opposites.
The reason it hasn't erupted yet is simply because our forces are still too weak.
"You…" Hill's expression was subtle: "Planning to take this opportunity to eliminate the Adventurer Association's strength?"
"That's only part of it," Carl laughed. "These adventurers come here, and they have to provide food, drink, lodging, and transportation, which should generate income for the residents of San Marino City. If they die, we will keep their assets free of charge until their relatives come to claim them."
Hill looked at Carl's handsome appearance and was speechless for a moment.
How could this Young Dragon be so heartless?
As a Dark Elf, she realized for the first time that there was still room for her moral standards to decline.
