EBE Chapter 626 Lieutenant Colonel Macaron
Chapter 626 Lieutenant Colonel Macaron
Cookie Town, a dessert town located in the western border of the kingdom, is essentially a border fortress and a key military location on the front line due to its special geographical location.
The town is ruled by a lieutenant colonel with five candy hearts, Lieutenant Colonel Macaron.
You can tell what kind of dessert person he is just from his name. He is a macaron person who is two meters tall, with a pink shell and strawberry jam sandwiched in the middle.
As the highest-ranking Macaron in the kingdom, people had long forgotten his name and called him Lieutenant Colonel Macaron.
As a military officer of the kingdom, he naturally fulfilled his duty to guard the border lands.
Although the kingdom is usually at peace, there are still some things that need to be maintained by soldiers.
The Sweetheart Kingdom, also known as the Candy World as Lin Tian had previously called it, is home to a special kind of monster.
Those are tooth worms. They are huge and have enormous appetites, often disturbing the residents living nearby. That's when the army is needed to maintain order.
Although Lieutenant Colonel Macaron was not good at fighting, he was quite excellent at military command. After he was sent to this town, the toothworm infestation in the vicinity was significantly reduced by more than half.
And so, Lieutenant Colonel Macaron and his men remained stationed there. He was happy to be there, spending his days in his office processing documents.
until.....
"Attacked? What happened?!"
As he listened to his subordinate's report, Macaron gripped the document in his hand, his brows furrowing deeply.
Just now, he learned from his men that several patrol teams they had recently dispatched had all been attacked.
What's even more shocking is that almost none of the attacked squads returned alive; they were all wiped out on the battlefield.
They learned from the few survivors that the attackers were a group of monsters they had never seen before.
Those monsters mostly wielded melee swords and were extremely powerful. At first, they were able to catch their opponents off guard by taking advantage of the information gap, but once the battle became intense, they were no match for those monsters.
In just one day, they completely lost control of the front-line border.
Although they don't usually send many troops to the border, since they have no external enemies, Lieutenant Colonel Macaron has never seen such a rapid defeat before.
Who exactly are these enemies?
Macaron was extremely puzzled by this question. When he first heard that it was a monster, he thought it was his old rivals, the group of tooth worms.
Then I heard later that these monsters were quite intelligent and knew how to use tactics such as ambushes and encirclements.
This made Macaron quickly abandon the idea, after all, the Toothworms were not smart creatures, and their soldiers didn't know much about tactics, so how could these Toothworms know?
But... if it's not them, then who else could it be?
This sudden news left Macaron completely bewildered, but now was not the time to dwell on it; the key was to resist the enemy.
As the garrisoned officer in this area, Macaron naturally could not stand idly by and watch his territory fall. If he gave up control of the border, the security of his country would inevitably be endangered.
Therefore, he must act swiftly!
After only a brief moment of thought, Lieutenant Colonel Macaron had already made his decision:
"Pass on my order: Assemble the troops!"
"Prepare for a counterattack!"
.............
"Dad... what... what is that?"
"Come back, child! Come back! Don't stand outside!"
"Monster! A monster has come in!"
"Damn it! Why are they here?!"
While Lieutenant Colonel Macaron was still assembling his troops, the surging Insect Demon squad had already captured a border town thanks to their powerful offensive capabilities.
Seeing the insect demons walking on the street, the residents of this small town all showed expressions of fear and dread.
They kept the doors and windows tightly shut, only daring to peek at the terrifying army through the cracks.
Fortunately, with the town's defenses already crumbled, the insect demons had no intention of wreaking havoc; they were simply doing what they were supposed to do.
for example.....
Boom boom boom! ! !
"Open the door!"
A rough voice came from outside. The biscuit man inside the door saw the tall figure outside through the crack and immediately shrank into a ball in fear.
"You...you guys, don't come in!"
Although the Sweetheart Kingdom has the ability to resurrect cookie men, resurrection is not free. The resurrection of soldiers is supported by the kingdom, but for ordinary people, it costs a lot of money once they die, which is definitely unacceptable for an ordinary family.
Not to mention that not everyone can bear the pain of death; the feeling of being torn apart and shattered is something no one wants to experience.
Therefore, when faced with the brutal and terrifying insect demons, these ordinary residents were naturally terrified. So, let alone opening the door for them, they had already closed the door and huddled in a corner, praying that the other side would leave soon.
However, these insect demons are not pushovers. If you don't open it after I say it once, or after I say it twice, they won't say it a third time.
Boom! ! !
"You're not opening it, are you?"
Hearing the knocking outside suddenly stop, the cookie man huddled inside the house had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, in the next moment...
boom! ! ! !
With a loud crash, the door that the craftsmen usually maintained was suddenly smashed open with a large hole. Then, two hands reached out from behind the hole and, with great force, tore the door that gave him a sense of security to pieces.
The moment the door was torn apart, to his utter horror, a hideous head poked its way in from the outside:
"The mayor... right...?"
...........
Boom! ! !
Inside the mayor's cabin, the mayor of this nameless dessert town was pinned down in a small chair by several burly men.
Opposite him sat an insect demon with a white carapace. Its towering figure made the less than one-meter-tall Biscuit Mayor tremble, fearing that the monster in front of him would devour him at any moment.
Fortunately, the people across the street don't seem to have a habit of enjoying desserts...
"Relax, as long as you answer our questions honestly, we won't hurt you... okay?"
Faced with the Insect Captain's seemingly innocent question, Mayor Biscuit, out of fear, did not answer immediately but instead fell silent.
Captain Insect wasn't in a hurry, taking it as Mayor Biscuit's tacit agreement with his request, and he quickly asked his first question:
How do we get out of here?
