After leaving that town, the two suns began to set in the west. Because of the little time they had spent before, it seemed that they would not be able to reach the imperial city before dark today.
If they rushed to the next town before dark, they could rest there and save time in building a camp, but they also had to be wary of the people in the town to see if they would cause trouble for Diao Si. Diao Si was hesitant about this and could only look at the situation before making a decision.
After walking a long way like this, he finally saw the town in the distance. When Diao Si continued to use refraction magic to observe, he also found that there seemed to be traces of gunpowder smoke there. However, due to the limitations of his magic ability, he cannot see clearly things that are too far away.
After passing a river and going into a forest to rest, someone suddenly reported to Diao Si that they discovered something special, so Diao Si rushed over immediately.
They were some skeletons with a putrid smell, but they were not formed by rotting corpses. They looked more like the flesh had been eaten by some monster, and the remaining bones were incomplete because they were all incomplete.
In order to confirm this, Diao Si also used summoning magic to reassemble the bones into a skeleton, so that they could see clearly that most of them were humans, and some were monsters.
"What kind of monsters do you think these are? How can they eat people like this? Is human flesh delicious?" Everyone present was a soldier. They were not shocked by this scene at all, but they talked about it. stop.
"It's not necessarily monsters, maybe people were too hungry and had no choice but to eat them..." Diao Si also expressed his opinion. In fact, this is unlikely, because if people are too hungry and want to eat the same kind, At least it should be cooked first.
"The people of the Empire of Light are too barbaric. If it were me, I would rather starve to death than eat..." The speaker was Gong Long. She was taking out a thigh bone from the summoned skeleton and looking at the bitten bones on it. trace.
Diao Si noticed now that the bite marks on the thigh bone were probably not left by humans, because the bones were damaged by bites and human teeth were not so powerful. So he added: "What is the truth, we will know next."
After leaving the woods, the previous town was already very close. This time, Diao Si could see the light smoke rising above without using the magic of refraction. This town may have just encountered a war, or it may have been plundered by the arresting army.
Want to go over and have a look soon? In this way, we can know whether the team that is arresting people everywhere is from the Glorious Empire or the Glorious Empire, but at the same time, Diao Si's troops may be exposed, making the people of the Glorious Empire over there wary.
When hesitating, Diao Si used his refraction magic again, and finally saw some soldiers wearing equipment, searching for something in those streets, and some of them were dragging some people, even corpses.
Looking at it this way, it is still not possible to determine whether they are from the Glorious Empire or not. What is certain is that they are really arresting people in the city and not sparing the corpses. Did they really come to this town just to arrest people and eat human flesh
Diao Si always felt that there was something wrong here, but he still couldn't figure it out. From the previous town to here, this arresting team had been operating in this area for a long time, which meant that they had arrested countless people. They are dead, but they are still being arrested.
They captured so many people to eat? Can it be eaten? Isn't this incredible? Diao Si had more and more questions and wanted to know the truth of this matter more and more.
At this time, several children suddenly rushed out of the city. They screamed and ran towards Diao Si. However, a soldier from behind quickly rushed up and grabbed one of them with one hand, and then He ruthlessly threw him against the city wall with one hand, and he probably died on the spot.
Isn't that too cruel? How to do this to several children! Diao Si floated over without saying a word. He couldn't let the beast kill these children one by one, and he didn't think about the consequences for the time being.
But when the children who were rushing in front saw him, they were so scared that they walked back and even ran towards the butchers. These children were really annoying.
After a long-range electric shock injured the guy holding the butcher knife, Diao Si had already passed the children and signaled them not to run around. But the children on the other side of the city wall didn't listen to him and ran back again, only to be caught by another bastard who massacred them.
The bastard's butcher knife was raised again. It was difficult for Diao Si to balance such a situation and such a distance. Unexpectedly, just when he panicked, the bastard was shot in the left chest by a golden arrow and was nailed to the wall.
It was Lei Ji. Diao Si turned his head and looked at her, then nodded. The golden arrow still flew past him, but it shouldn't have been him that Reggie shot this time, otherwise he might have been nailed to the wall.
When the soldiers saw him move, they all followed him. This immediately attracted the attention of those bastards who killed people randomly, and they immediately gathered people to greet him.
After several arrows hit the dark crystal warriors in front and were blocked by their hard armor, those people knew who was in Diao Si's team in front of them and immediately ran away in a hurry. But there was still no time to escape. After those dark crystal warriors waved their weapons and their dazzling skills, they fell down one by one.
There was no need for Diao Si to take action. After a while, Gong Long threw a seriously injured purple light warrior in front of him. She should be the leader of this unit.
"Shall you tell her yourself or should I ask?" Diao Si asked calmly, first using water magic to treat her injuries.
The guy must have been frightened, so she tremblingly replied to Diao Si: "I say, I say, I say everything, you can just ask... No, you don't need to ask, I say, I say everything..."
It seemed that she still had to ask, otherwise this guy wouldn't know what to say, so Diao Si asked her: "You are a general of the Glorious Empire, right? Were you ordered to arrest people here? Why did you arrest these people?... "
"Yes, yes, yes... just take them to the camp and feed them to the sea beasts..." The guy confessed honestly. It seemed that she was really afraid of death.
"Sea beasts?" Gong Long and the others were full of questions after hearing this. Maybe they had never heard of such a term. Only Diao Si knew in his heart that the truth had been completely revealed. They were those sea beasts that eat people. Diao Si was already in Guangnan. I had contact with them during the empire.
All the creatures on the continent of this world are vegetarian, but the creatures in the ocean are different. They are all ferocious carnivores. Diao Si knew before that the Empire of Light was united with the Sea Kingdom, and they wanted to use these sea beasts to unify the entire Empire of Light.
Since the Imperial City of the Glorious Empire cannot be attacked for a long time, the Glorious Empire that is attacking the city will naturally have to find a way to feed these sea beasts. The simplest and most direct way is to use the people here to feed them.
"You beast, how can you capture your own kind and feed them to those aliens? You don't even let the children go. Are you worthy of your own sense of honor?" Gong Long said angrily. She really wanted to kill this purple light warrior right away. Woolen cloth.
The purple light warrior became even more frightened after hearing this, and responded tremblingly: "I can't help it, General, she said... She said that if we can't get the people back, they will feed them with us. I don't want to die."
After hearing what she said, Diao Si remembered what he had heard about the Chidong Empire from the invading teams when he was in Green Hidden City. They also used their own people to support those ferocious sea beasts. This The sea beast actually landed in several places at the same time. It seems that there is a huge conspiracy behind this.
And judging from the information analysis of the Purple Light Warrior, this siege of the Glory Empire did not put the Glory Empire's formation in any food crisis. The two countries were not evenly matched, and it should be said that the Glory Empire could no longer sustain it for long.
Therefore, their entire battle direction should be to unite with the Empire of Radiance to deal with the Empire of Radiance. Even the most powerful Empire of Radiance at the time was like this. Now the entire Empire of Light should have been occupied by the Empire of Radiance. Cooperate with the Empire of Radiance is the best choice.
At this time, Diao Si started to get a little worried. When he set out, he had not thought that the situation here would turn out like this. He could not estimate how powerful the glorious empire that relied on sea beasts was. (To be continued)
